Swap space is an auxiliary storage, such as a portion of a hard-disk, which can be used as memory by the operating system when system RAM is insufficient.

But it is not used on android system, so you have to set it to 0.

The ext2 or second extended filesystem is a file system for the Linux kernel.

The ext3 or third extended filesystem is a journaled file system that is commonly used by the Linux kernel. It is the default file system for many popular Linux distributions.

Its main advantage over ext2 is journaling which improves reliability and eliminates the need to check the file system after an unclean shutdown

The ext4 or fourth extended filesystem is a journaling file system for Linux, developed as the successor to ext3.

If you're going to partitioning your sd card, i recommend to use gparted live cd!

i'm using 1gb ext4 filesystem on my 16gb class6 sd card, works like a charm

Don't think so

with terminal app on phone:

HTC Desire freeze when using GPS and making a call

Please excuse the length of this post, but I have been trying for 11 days to resolve this problem!

I have been a user of Defrost since I installed 6.0e on 14 November 2010. I have upgraded through all the upgrades until 6.1 and found it to be exceptionally stable.

I noted that RichardTrip also did the Gingervillain and installed version 0.8 over Defrost 6.1 on 17 Jan 2011.

Everything worked fine, but I missed some of the functionality in Defrost and restored the NAND backup of Defrost 6.1 later the same day.

Since then I have experienced that my HTC Desire is guaranteed to freeze when I'm driving in my car with GPS navigation and making or receiving a call. The freeze would be total - the screen would remain the same and the battery charge icon would stop moving and naturally the sound would cut out. Sometimes you would get a droan on the speaker. The only way to get the phone operational again is to remove the battery and restart. This freeze could happen within seconds from the call commencing or only after 5-10 minutes.

Now it doesn't really make sense that I would have this problem after doing a NAND restore (as it should restore the phone to exactly what is was previously), so I have spent the last 11 days trying to get to the bottom of this. I am really out of options, because I cannot see the relation between the call module and the GPS.

My observations are as follows:

1) Problem is the same whether I use bluetooth speaker or the built in speaker with bluetooth disabled

2) Calls are fine if the GPS navigation programme is disabled

3) GPS navigation is fine as long as I do not make/receive calls

4) Problem persists whether I use Google maps, NDrive, GarmapforMobile or just GPS test

5) I restored to previous/older NAND backup's of Defrost - problem persists

5a) I went back to GingerVillain 0.8 again - same problem

6) I cleared my flash drive and restored my phone to RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed - problem persists. Note - my phone is an unbranded one from South Africa

5) Upgraded the Radio ROM from 5.09.00.20 to 5.11.05.27 which I used on Defrost - problem persists

7) Since then I have restored my phone to Defrost 6.1, following the entire process again - problem persists.

My configuration is as follows:

1) HTC Desire GSM (Bravo)

2) 4Gb SD Card (no ext partitions)

3) Rooted using Unrevoked 3.3 (Previously 3.21)

4) S_OFF using Alpharev 1.8 (Previously 1.0)

5) Partitioned with /system as 165Meg and /cache as 25Meg

5) Back on Defrost 6.1 (I have tried 6.1a as well - same problem)

Is there anything I forgot to check? Anything else I can try? Any other tips?
[Desire Android Development] :
I would try another HBOOT... Stock or n1 Table.
[Desire Android Development] shokwaav:
No I mean do you like the kernel?

[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
I don't think this is necessary, won't make a difference.

Maybe, and I know this isn't the most popular option, you should try to do a full-wipe and reinstall DF6.1. The problem you describe happens to me too when using Gingervillain, didn't experience it with DF. Anyway, if your system was performing well before and you haven't made any changes to your radio or system, then do a full-wipe and fresh install of DeFrost...
[Desire Android Development] :
I would give it a try... The cache seems a bit small. I mean he has to play a bit with all the possibilities hes got.

Hi Bertosch,

when I restored to RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00. 32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed, it restoerd the HBOOT as well. Had the same problem. I then rooted again with Unrevoked, which installed HBOOT 0.92.0001 again.

For interest sake - how would the HBOOT affect the GPS/Phone? Does it contain any hardware interfaces other than the essentials to boot the system?

Thanks

Gert
[Desire Android Development] Tekguru:
One issue I seem to have with all GB ROMS (Villain / Oxygen) is that after a while Email refuses to come in, either automatically or via autopull from the Exchange servers. This seems to happen less often if I'm running over WiFi instead of GPRS.

The only solution seems to be a reboot.

Anyone else seen this issue at all?
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
You're right about that, it's just that flashing hboot's can mess up your system if anything goes wrong, so for me, it would kind of be the last resort. Furthermore, 25mb's actually isn't that small. The Oxygen table for instance has only 10mb's for /cache and that seems to be working great. But, I agree, you have to consider all the options...
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
Uups, sorry

No Problems so far, not the fastest one, but fast enough and battery consumption seems to be fewer.

But maybe 24 h of usage is not enough for a final assessment, or even a recommendation.
[Desire Android Development] :
Its just tapping in the dark. Another option could be as well trying another Recovery. Older, newer I dont know!

But I am very interested in a solution. It can hit everyone :(
[Desire Android Development] ultphoto:
I have been running this configuration on Defrost from 10 December 2010 without any issues. I also use Quick System Info to monitor my partition use, and the Cache always shows memory free.

Also - when I reinstalled RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed, the HBOOT was restored to 0.8 with the same problem. I later rooted the phone after testing to get back to HBOOT 0.92.0001.
[Desire Android Development] :
Have you tried another AOSP GB Rom? Did you use the stock gingervillain?
[Desire Android Development] ultphoto:
I have been playing a bit with Oxygen 2.0 RC5 prior to installing Gingervillain 0.8 but have not tested it extensively. I installed RC5 on 5 Jan '11 and uninstalled it later the same day and restored the Defrost 6.1 NAND. It ran fine until the 17th after I uninstalled GV 0.8.

I used stock Gingervillain 0.8, yes.

I'll give it a try again later today, or is there a better AOSP GV to use?
[Desire Android Development] :
A better GB or better GingerVillain? I am satisfied with GV0.9 except the kernel.

But give Oxygen RC7 a try and maybe flash another Recovery and HBOOT.
[Desire Android Development] ultphoto:
GB, sorry :)
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
I've tried them all - Oxygen, CM7, Amethyst, Redux - and i think it will be hard to find a better one than GingerVillain... ;)

(would not say that the others are bad at all..)

IMHO
[Desire Android Development] ducasan:
Kudos for GingerVillain :)

Can anyone confirm that the green battery percentage is missing from the Villain Setup?

And can anyone also confirm that the lock/unlock sounds aren't working?

Secondly, is it Possible to flash the htc sense camera on this rom. I have found one on modaco but it is old and use for the nexus or, cyan 5.

I asssume is not just the camera ask, and some framework filed need modifying.

So can u get the sense camera on this rom?
[Desire Android Development] Deosneos:
No, sense apps are dependant on the sense framework, so to have the sense camera you would need a sensee ROM unfortunatly. The sense camera is also the only thing I miss since going AOSP.

You need HTC sense for anything by HTC to run.

going back to DeFroST

I finally gave up today, after driving home along the motorway and having to try to re-pair my Desire with my Parrot kit about 6 times before it would stay connected.

I tried the torch and on DeFrost 10 minutes of torch-on takes between 1 and 2% battery (as opposed to the ~8% it takes on GV).

As soon as I reinstalled DeFroST the Market started downloading all my apps for me again.

It's like going back to an old friend.

Along with the occasional time where GV just decided that it wouldn't make a call these things have pushed me back there. I'm happy enough waiting (although with baited breath!) for CM7.
