With a2sd, you don't have to manually move apps, it's automatic. if you move it yourself, just a part of the app is moved to your fat partition. The a2sd way is to automatically move the whole app to the ext partition, just like it was the internal memory. However, the data are still in the phone's memory. That's why it becomes lower when you install an app. Did you do the a2sd cachesd command? It moves the dalvik cache also to the sd. You can have more free memory with this. See the first post.

So it means if i install an app, it will automatically goes to ext partitiob right ? I just have to so the command ?

So right now whats the free storage for u guys ? Mine says max is 148mb and free is 80mb with just some few apps installed .. before the su command ..
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
103 apps, 83MB used
[Desire Android Development] amir88:


Wow i have 20 apps with almost 85mb free .. i guess if i do the SU command it will get better
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
Mind that RootSU also uses a Custom MTD, so your free space is not to be compared with his. He only tells us how much the apps he has got installed take up.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yep, I specifically state how much space is used for this reason. I have 210MB free. However, if I had not got a custom MTD layout, I would have about 64MB free.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
Oh so whats custom MTD ? How can i get it ?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I don't think you're at a stage where you need to worry about that yet. See how you get on with a2sd first. You may well not need anything else other than that.

If and when you are ready for more space (if needs be) and you have the understanding and knowledge of android, link is in my signature. I dont know your skill level, but if you class yourself as a novice, stay away from it until you no longer class your self as that ;)
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
I did the SU command and it was fine, the phone rebooted automatically, but the booting time was much slower than usual ! and after the phone booted, i couldnt use anything cuz it was sooo laggy .. right now its much better regards of lag and the space gone up to 140mb :)

is the laggy thing common ?

thnx guys :D
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
No its probably down to the dalvik cache.

You know when you first flash a rom and it takes ages to start up? 10 minutes etc? Thats because it is building the dalvik cache. This time you were moving it.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
oh I see !! thnx !! now i installed many apps and the free memory is about 120mb :)

This rom is really great.

However, I get random problems sometimes... And don't find the cause. My apps won't start, all of them fc, sys become laggy,...

Sometimes a reboot help, sometimes not. And the problems are gone alone like they came.

Yesterday I installed cifs manager from the market, used it and it worked fine. A few hours later, when I try to launch, it says that the program is not installed...

anybody experiencing the same things? Think I'll flash and wipe everything and give a try to data 2 we script.

Which was the kernel that came with GV 1.0. I would like to revert to that one, but don't know exactly which it one it was again. A link towards the downliadlication would really be appreciated (if I am not mistaking it was a .35 one)

Thanks in advance!

About new market problems with pictures.

Original (old) market from GV 1.1 works just fine. Preparing for download (1st pic), downloading (2nd pic). New market's downloading looks just like preparing (3rd pic), while notification pulldown screen tells me the truth (4th pic). Another weird thing is that if I press "Starting download" program's market page will appear but without "Starting download" as could be expected. Downloading will only appear at notification pulldown screen and this downloaded program won't be installed. What's wrong? Is that mean that I should stay with old market?

Sorry for poor english.
[Desire Android Development] zakdoc89:
Some advice, apps don't seem to install to my SD card in aps2sd partition. Any help will be appreciated.
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
Is your sd-ext mounted?
[Desire Android Development] zakdoc89:
Yes, since I can view free space in it from titanium backup.
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
I Had this too, Apps did first install to internal and only when internal has about 30-50 mb free it starts installing apps on sd-ext.

Pretty weird, "a2sd check" results in no errors, and there is some 200 mb of my sd-ext used buit still it firstly installen everything on my internal.

This is something that started happening since GV 1.1, In the meantime i have put in a new SD-card (1gb ext and rest fat32) and fully wiped and reinstalled but still the same.

It is not a big problem though, since it reserves some space on the /data and new apps go to /SD-ext
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
And there's no apps in sd-ext partition? Have you dalvik moved to sd?
[Desire Android Development] zakdoc89:
Ok, I think its been sorted. I ran the following command from terminal:

-su

-a2sd cachesd

Seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks for a great Rom @richardtrip
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yes. It says to do this in post 1 of this thread
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
That's on the first page (:

Villain setup

At villain setup the list is empty. It is just me or there is some other problem?

Im using Ginger Villain 1.1. Thx
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
Might be a long shot, but if you've got Spare Parts, try checking that the transition and window animation speeds are set to normal and not slow.

Also, if you've got any other profiles in setcpu, check what governor they're using since some (smartass, interactive and conservative for e.g.) cause a bit of lag when waking from sleep.

Swyped from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] devil-kin:
I already checked that: 254-1113, ondemand, and 254-254 ondemand for screen off.

Spareparts checked out ok too. I guess it might be something in my mind, too, though :)

Another item: I've noticed that the auto-brightness goes in steps, whereas in Froyo it used to be more smooth transitions. Anything changed there?
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
We've got 1.2! (: Should a2sd be lauched again after updaste?

some issues

o.k. i just withnessed that version 0.5 is there...i'll try that one first and see if those problems remain ;-)

Hello there,

the battery life looks awesome, really! ;-)

But i got some issues that i want to share:

1. my gmail (google apps) doesn't seem to work, nothing synchronises, no mail,

contacts nore agenda.

2. my phone constantly nags about lack of space, i don't know if this is a rom

issue or something else. What is the minimum of internal memory you should

leave on the phone? i would love to put allot more on my sd card but if i

want to use widgets i can't seem to use them when the app is on the sd.(as

far as i know this has nothing to do with this rom ;-) )

these are my major issues right now...but you gots to love the battery life...ooooohw yeah ;-)

thnx Sherlock
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
Hi there,

First of all, this is a great rom. It's been on my device as main rom since i decided to try it out a few days ago. There is one thing i'd like to report.

When navigating in Google maps, after a while (and unpredictable if and when) the phone stops working and shows the boot animation (the gingervillain one) it hangs there until i take out my battery and restart. I hope this is fixable.

Secondly i'd like some info if it is possible. I was looking over the kernel mods but i do not really understand what it all says. If it is possible i would like to try a kernel with as low battery comsumption as possible. The shortcodes (svs etc.) are unknown to me and i can't really find a lot of help on XDA (I don't really know what to search for either) Maybe some-one is willing to explain this to me or point me to a thread where i can find some more info?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks again for this great ROM. I'm looking forward to seeing the development of this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:

[Desire Android Development] hannomag:
hi richard, thanks for the new release. Could it be, that flash player 10.1 doesn't work anymore? installation through market (old and new) allways fails. Not enough memory!? Can anyone confirm that?

Thanks

Edit: Got it installed. Had to set the install location in Vallain setup to external memory and then it worked (failed on internal and automatic). Flash is now installed. Settet vallain setup back to auto an it's still there.

Edit2: Didn't realy solve the problem. Not able to use the internal memory. SiMi clock witget for example. Only installable when external memory is set by villain manager, but doesn't work then. Can't move it to the phone with the app manager either.

I updated to .5 which should have dutch dictionary support for the keyboard, but when I set it to dutch it keeps suggesting only english words.. any clue? (I've downloaded the kb from the gingervillain app)
[Desire Android Development] sherlock1:
Installed 0.5 and works like a charm. The google apps issue with mail etc excists no more.

The internal memory issue looks to be solved because i did the following: before installing other apps, instal the "setinstallocation" app.

It made the crucial difference so far.

Now let's see if the battery is still rockin'...love this one so far.....i'll look for a paypall account to donate.
[Desire Android Development] shokwaav:
btw defrost (2.2) on desire goes up to 3000 in quadrant.

as someone said, 3d in quadrant doesn't work in gingerbread so you get lower scores.
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
I did a quadrant too with SETCPU on max and got a score of 1407. Indeed the 3D animations (except the DNA-spiral) are not working but the framerate's are counted as you can see in the bottow of you screen.

Is there something with UOT kitchen and this rom, I can't upload the framework file, it says error or something.. anyone get it to work? I just want a % on the battery lol

Also noticed 0.5 is a bit more lag, was there some change other than listed? 0.4 my LauncherPro was snappy and fast, and now it's back to FroYo 2.2 slowness.

You can just clear it from your recovery. Wipe CACHe and Dalvik-cache. This will clear any cached apk's etc that the Android OS might have built up over time, and will probably solve your bootloop too. (it did for me)

hi!

does updating the rom move dalvik cache back to internal storage?

i just updated from 1.1 where i had plenty of internal space left

is it necessary to move the cache to sd after every update?

Any ideas ?
[Desire Android Development] samleung:
3 partitions? It should be just the FAT32 filesystem followed by a single EXT partition.

On a separate note, I'll be holding off on updating to 1.2, based on the aforementioned issues.

Hi Richard great smooth rom, my one issue is one that has carried over from cm nightlies. When turning the wifi off the phone auto turns on mobile data. Turning it on then off in settings kills it. If it helps this bug appeared in nightly #6. Hopefully its something your wizardry can fix. Thanks again and glad to be back on GV
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
So you're saying if you manually turn off Mobile data, then turn on and off WiFi, mobile turns on?

Can't say I can replicate that. Will test
[Desire Android Development] lman00:
do this: turn off wifi, turn off mobile data -> turn on wifi -> turn off wifi -> and somehow it is using mobile data even though in settings it is disabled.

I can confirm this
