Man this thread and MikZ thread are dead!!

Just to get things started....

BYU's Jimmer Ferdette is #1 College Basketball Player in Nation!! The SI Player of the Year....Scored 52 points in Mountain West Conference Tourney yesterday!! BYU deserves a #1 seed in NCAA's if they win Conference championship today!

PS If you are new to this thread, then don't scream "not rom related"!! Those of us who have been around since the begining have earned the right to digress now and then, for the sake of waking people up. It is a known fact (at least to me!) that more activity on the thread generates more activity. Now, if some of the posts are "off topic", that's fine every now and then because that leads to other's seeing the activity in the thread and going, geez, guess I better read and get caught up...that's where we get them! Because interwoven in our "off topic" ramblings will be nuggets of useful information! People will be prompted to respond to the "off topic subject" and then think..."well, as long as I hit Reply, what about issue xxx???" and then the thread gets rolling on again with useful information. That is my theory, such as it is...feel free to chime in and try and disprove it, but I warn you, more posts will just lead to more posts and more useful information!!! You have been warned!

Wow its still dead i got on at 7 saw nothing and a hour still zip wake ppl i need to read stuff lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
it's dead because i think development for the evo is sorta at a standstill until we get a ginger/sense port or until the new evo is announced. mikforyo runs flawless for me and i still claim it's the fastest rom ive ever used soo far.

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I think it would be crazy for BYU to get a #1 seed. They booted off a key player for having sex with his girlfriend. Stupid principles. :P

And just for the sake of discussion, your theory is has a darkside. I agree more posts generates activity. But if too many of these posts are useless, it makes finding the good info almost impossible.

Yes, I groan everytime someone at the school gets "caught" violating the Honor Code...and they always seem to do it right before the clutch play-off runs! Think Jim McMahon in football for example. Still, the "principles" may seem strange to outsiders, but it was sure nice to be able to go to school on Monday and not have to listen to tales of "who had the best Kegger party...who drank/smoked/sc**wed the most" over the weekend. I will say that competing against all the returned missionaries for grades (they have incredible study/work ethics after 2 years on a mission) was tough!

As for my theory...notice the new postings? And even Raybudd (hi friend!) chimed in with a valid rom related issue....theorem proved??? IDK??;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] mdixon4az:
Speaking of formatting SD cards. I just formatted mine to get rid of the EXT3 I created before I relaized that I didn't need it and wouldn't use it on my stock SD card. I used Amon to set the EXT3 size to 0, then I used SD Formatter to format the card. TB still lists an EXT3 with a lot of data on it, though. More than was on there before I formatted the card.

I think I recall someone else saying that TB did that after they removed the EXT3. Can someone confirm that it is just a glitch with TB? Is there a way for me to confirm in some other way that the EXT3 is gone? A2sd check states that there is an EXT3 but it is not mounted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I had the same thing you should be good to go. I actually posted screen of my terminal output. I am on app otherwise I would find it for you. Be sure to run a2sd remove in terminal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kudzus:
I think you’ll see that TI is reporting SD Card (a2sd) not an ext3 partition.

It’s because MikFroyo uses a2sd to move cache to the SD card
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
This is an 'oft discussed phenomenon for which I haven't found the root cause. I too have repartitioned my complete sd card, formatted only FAT32 and still seen this "phantom" ext3 raise it's head in TB!! I think it is really dependent upon how the sd card is partitioned originally and how it was formatted after that. Some people see this phantom ext3, some don't...kinda the "Locke Ness Monster" of MikFroyoland I guess!

FWIW: I have tried various methods of formatting my sd cards...including: Amon_RA, GParted via Live CD boot on laptop, various Windoz partition managers...etc... But, weird as it may seem, my best results have come from using Vampirefo's recovery on my Wife's Samsung Transform!!:confused:

If I am trying a new setup, I mount my sd card to my laptop directly, backup everything on it, pop the sd card into wifie's Transform, format it (currently 512 ext3, rest FAT32, no swap on an 8GB Class 6 card btw..), remount to my laptop and restore data, and it always seems to work flawlessly doing it that way! Amon_RA is by far the best recovery IMHO, but I don't depend on it for formatting apps2sd setups on my sd card, that's for sure:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
There's my issue... I've had the same card for a couple year now so I'm assuming there's stuff I don't need on it... So I wanna just backup pics,videos,music,titanium, and a couple other things... But the rest of it I'm fairly certain I don't need or want... So is there anything that NEED to make sure I transfer over cause I'm tired of hitting the vol down button so many times to get to my download folder ;-)

This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
It was awhile ago, but there was a brief discussion on organizing sd card content for us "flashaholics" to make it quicker..

I personally put my Mik suff in a folder I call "AA_MikFroyo", my Themes in "AAA_Themes_Mods' and kernels in "AAA_Kernels". That way, at least using Amon_RA 2.3, when I select "flash zip from sd card", these folders are at the top of the file list and my volume down/up button gets much less wear and tear!!:D

As for the "scorched earth" approach to repartitioning and formatting your sd card...I have gone with the approach of finding a method that works for me, setting up a 512MB ext3, no swap, and rest FAT32. I use that on all the roms I try. If I don't want to use the ext3, I rely on a2sd settings to disable apps2sd settings (see mitchellvi's post linked in Post#1 for link) or else if the rom I am trying doesn't support apps2sd, then the ext3 is ignored anyway.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
That's really an awesome idea... I'm gonna have to do that! And I'm not really formatting for speed purposes.. I'm just sure that there's useless crap I don't want or need so I wanna save what I know I want and what you guys say I need... Needing space until I get my class 10 32gb ;-)

This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine...
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
With all of this SD talk, my card is giving me grief. Phone going along just fine, then bam I get a notification that there was an error and SD is read only. :confused:

I hit the button to retry and its all good, for about 20min. Then the same thing happens. So, time for me to reformat. I'm going to do a2sd remove to take stuff off ext (maybe TB would report correctly? I'll see). I found this low-level format tool for windows, I'll give that a spin.

So I think the ext partition is a good idea. Although I don't carry more than 50 apps, I'm thinking if I should get rid of it completely. What does the Mik community think? Yes or no for the ext partition? While still on this topic, is a swap partition of any value. I have it setup currently, but I don't know if performance is better.

I have plenty of time to contemplate this; waiting for 20GB to transfer...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jocampo86:
Sorry for the request again but can somebody point that link for the stock apps in zip fromat flammable..can't find it
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Thats exactly what mine did yesterday. Very weird indeed as it gave no warning until I went to do something in Root Explorer. However, mine would never remount the card. I had to physically remove the card, mount it in my reader, then run Scandisk. I thought it was going to be toast, but everything came back and everything is working.

As for the ext partition, its hit or miss. I mean if you can get by with all your apps on internal, it is faster than on the card, even with a class 10. With that said, I am still running my ext3 partition. As for a swap partition, if you do a search about it, you'll get varying results as well, from yes to no. The 1 phenom that I have experienced with running the swap partition, is that after several days, unless I reboot, the phone at times feels sluggish and the when adding an app to the home screen it takes forever to load the app list. This is something that I have read on multiple occasions about running a swap partition, but it seemed more so for Eclair? But then there are times where it doesn't happen, so I don't know how much to read into that. Right now I have a 64MB swap partition set up.

[EVO 4G Android Development] kikcaffine:
First great rom my man, really enjoying the new found speed my phone is responding at. Secondly Im having an odd problem. It seems when the phone is running and application and its not being held it will stop charging if its plugged in. If its not running anything though its fine. It also appears if the phone is turned so the charge port is at the top, it will stop charging. Is there an easy fix for this? I thought I saw something about bumping voltage somewhere?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
nevermind, I misread your comment, I thought at first you were saying this was a great first rom:rolleyes:

thank you much..if I wanted to keep the clock in the notifications (spend most of my time reading emails on the phone) would that be possible to add back in? If not, no sweat and again thanks for your help (reason I like this thread so much + the awesome ROM)..
[EVO 4G Android Development] ericwgarza1:

[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Anyway you can remove the box completely on the lockscreen and make so its just time and date and your background? I think that would look very sleek.

Maybe clear with like two thin lines... One at the bottom one at the top.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Down for that. Just not liking that black shaded box myself. But do what suits you. So far not any real issues on 4.3. Flashed a gb keyboard that goes along great with the green.

[EVO 4G Android Development] bcarter2000:
I am having difficulties with the MikMarket on 4.3beta. I downloaded and installed several apps last night (on wifi), but today(on 3G), it will download about 75% then just stop. I've tried different apps, and I've cleared data/cache and still nada. Unless you want a logcat, I'm going to wipe and re-flash, and see if I can re-create.

any idea why 4g scans ,picks up signal ,connects then drops. I have the latest radios and have updated profiles, and prls
[EVO 4G Android Development] mainguy21:
how could i get better battery life with this rom? i took off my phone from the charger at 7 am and right now im at 75 %..any ideas? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] bcarter2000:
What time zone are you in? I am in central, it's 4:45 pm here. 9.75 hours and still @ 75% sounds pretty damn nice.

[EVO 4G Android Development] mainguy21:
im not complaining i was just wondering cause people are getting better life than me..im always on the road and i work in the oilfield so im never home. thats why i was wondering.

and its 5 pm here
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
well... try net 4.3

i had 66% left after a day and 5 hours with it and setcpu set to low cpu on screen off with no over clocking. (i think i had setcpu on... im not sure though.. i might have not even used anything with nets 4.3)

another tip i can give u is that since this rom really dont use much of the cpu... underclocking should work out nice also.

so u can sit at 800's 700's and still the phone should run smooth and of course u will get more batt life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
whats this talk of 4.6? is there a beta or something? id hope it might be gingerbread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
I've heard mik and the other elders say that your phone is faster even than a class 10 so if you don't need a2sd then don't use it.. I don't but I maybe have 15 apps... So I've never worried about it especially when they said its not only not worth it but id lose speed as well

Ok, with all of my apps and dalvik cache on /data, SD & Phone Storage is saying I have 160MB available. So it looks like I don't really need an ext partition. What, does this 160MB also includes the cache partition?

And is there any benefit to dalvik located in either cache or data?

I could of left my setup as it was, but since I'm going through this formatting, might as well configure the best way for me. Thanks for all of the inputs.

Unfortuately, it will only take you a few hours to do this. :(

Remember to get it to a point where it won't be able to turn on at all. Wait a minute, turn it on. Take the battery out and put back in, turn it on. You need to get every bit of juice out.

And when you do kill it, let it charge up completely before turning on. That means get your XDA fix now while you can. :)

Well, FWIW....I am running MikZ, have about 40 user apps installed. I have 512MB ext3 partition and I run cachesd. Right now I am reporting 385MB Free on Internal storage, 5.85 GB free on my 8 GB Class 6 sd card, and 306MB free on my ext3. I for one think my phone is more responsive with apps2sd...however...keep in mind I am what aamikam once called "an old dude" (or something to that effect) since I have been exclusively Android since the G-1 on T-Mobile came out. Since then, I have had, in order...G-1 T-Mobile, Samsung Behold II on T-Mobile..Samsung Moment on Sprint, Samsung Intercept on Sprint, and now my beloved EVO on Sprint:D

Whenever possible, I have always run apps2sd..in fact I believe I was one of the driving forces behind aamikam adopting apps2sd universally on his ROMs! (at least that is what I like to believe based on the conversations we had about the subject back when he was releasing two versions of each ROM :o).

Oh yes..on a side note...deliver me from ever having another Samsung phone!! My wife is currently is running a Samsung Transform (she likes keyboards...I am trying to get her to switch to an EVO shift so she can run Mik's ROM on it:)). They are the weirdest phones in the way they partition their memory, are "non-standard" in that way, which makes porting software over to them more problematic. Very easy to "brick" one of them, whereas the EVO is "ALMOST" un-brickable if you are careful:o
