It is the same in recovery, flash gapps then I think it returns.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hackwerk:
Like other people also ask;

1) Where to modify swap-settings or see swap info in new builds (RC2)?

2) I can partition SD also on my pc (copy SD > PC, repart / reformat, copy PC > SD) so I dont lose everything? Or has to be in ClockworkMod (with PC copy before and after)?

3) Which size, cluster size and FS for the swap? And for data/files?

4) Which swappiness?

My/our specs are found in my sig :)

5) Do I want to use Supercharcher V6 or not? Pro's and con's?

VPN connection

Hello. I am very satisfied with this rom, bud i have one problem.

I am not able to connect to VPN server via PPTP with native VPN client in this andorid version. Has anybode else have simmiliar problem? Is there any fix? Thank you for answer.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Roger that :rolleyes:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] nibras_reeza:
In this ROM, swap and swappiness is adjusted at boot by /system/etc/init.d/07swapon and there's a line which echos swappiness. Default is 60. You can change it to any value you like.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] revilo34:
to use swappiness it means that it will automatically saved you apps to sd not in ext memory? i used to partition my sd to fat32 and ext but when i checked my memory the unpartitioned one used by appli not ext2. why this happen?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] effortless.:
No, swap is like a Page file (look it up on google) Also, apps2sd on 2.2/2.3 is where you store apps on your SD Card (in /sdcard/android.secure), not in EXT space like the android 2.1 mod.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] smg72523889:

plz. can anyone test and confirm or reject?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MalarKeY007:
Lol, I've downgraded to 2.1 update1 today and now I'm upgrading to CM7 RC2. I can't live without CM7 anymore... easy overclock, fast ROM, MUCH more options and resources.... Long live Mur4ik, you really saved GT540 users!

I remembered to Ask: Anyone have the original LG MEMO WIDGET to give me please? I miss this app! Its a excellent and easy sticknote widget!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] wwenigma:
1, answered

2, 8/16/32GB cards sometimes cant partitionable in PC with card reader. Use recovery to partition

3, 1 recommend you to use 256MB SWAP and another 256MB EXT partition

4, set swappiness to 30, thats the best we found

+1, Use Link2SD from market to move apps to ext partition. Do not use internal app2sd solution! (cant use ext and not so good...)

V6 - not needed imho, try it and choose.

MalarKeY007 Yea and the original calendar app. :( :( :(
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] effortless.:
You can get them widgets on the Market I think. Somone ported them from Optimus One. I'll get you Market link now.

Here: https://market.android.com/developer?pub=Rayman50
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Quinny899:
The calendar one is fine, bar the title which has a time(?)

However, the notes one exceeds screen size. I will pull you my version of it from the Quarx Black 2.1 which works when pushed to /system/app & reboot.

EDIT: Here you go: Download. It will install normally, but won't save your notes. ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Quinny899:
And here's the calendar widget with the screenshots of both.

You can install the calendar widget normally.

Download in attachments

I'm trying to port the world clock now, as it looked cool, and the weather cannot be ported without framework changes. :mad:

EDIT: Can someone post stock 2.1's /system/framework odexed folder? Unyaffs is refusing to decode the 2.1 backup
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] martin255:
How did you got that transparent status bar working? I've done the patching steps, exactly as Meizu(or who) wrote, but my status bar disappeared :(
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Quinny899:
It's ZduneX25

You download the patch & undo for you at Zdune's site (I use patch OP for network). Now reboot into recovery > install zip from sd > choose patch > reboot. If the bar is there, GREAT, if it's not: reboot into recovery again > apply undo.zip > reboot > old bar will be there. Reboot into recovery again > install patch again > reboot > apply zdune's theme in theme chooser > PROFIT.

So anybody give me a solid review on the rc2 vs rc1?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] eoghan2t7:
From what i can see rc2 has been given a big boost in performance everything goes far smoother with no lags also there is improvments in boot times. To be blunt rc2 is 1000% better than rc1.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MalarKeY007:
Agreed!

RC2 was fixed the Random Crashes and Random Freezes from RC1! Don't need to pull out the battery anymore! Plus, the battery management is better I think. :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] lavero.burgos:
Hello guys,and what about the power and volume down buttons? I did not upgrated to rc1 'cause of the known bugs but what about rc2 ?

Edit: oh and btw can someone pm me links of a mirror with rc2 version 'cause somehow I can't download from depositfiles. Thanks in advance

Veronica
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] timpoldo:
I quote again myself just to inform you that with RC2 the problem seems to be solved.

I've upgraded mine M4 via fastboot (doing fastboot -w) and now phone rings perfect! :)

Thanks Mur4ik!

P.S. Any way to solve GPS icon issue?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] gigimon212:

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] EazyLuke:
What bugs are you talking about? My power and volume buttons work perfectly.

That's not the ROMs fault I think, GPS is working fine here!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] m1st3r1:
i know it's easier to ask same question rather than read a few pages back... but, have u tried fasterfix (an app from the market)... if u havent, try it. change the server (the current, original server for gps in this rom, is kinda weird), and change it to somewhere else, i chose North America server. it's faster to lock than if i chose Asia server (it even lock within seconds when im in a room), well i guess like Homer J. Simpson said, America's Number 1.. lol.

kudos for nibras_reeza for this tip. i can use my Aura again.

make sure you properly close any apps that use GPS, before deactivate GPS. this simple way, works for me.

and for the RC2 update.. has anyone said it's fast? well, +1 for that. for me, it restores anything faster (sms, titanium, etc), kinda like M5 (or M4), and games like Falling Fred is faster now (with the exact same tweak (balance 3, supercharge, 2 mB sdcard cache, 256 mB 30 swappiness swap) with RC1, it has lesser lag, falling now seems easier (and more fun) :)

kudos and big thanks for Mur4ik for this update (and anyone who showed me the tweaks, u know who u are, lol).

and lockscreen's wallpaper change is really awesome.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] nibras_reeza:
Just would like to correct you about weirdness. GPSoneXTRA is a AGPS technology by qualcomm and is supposed to be faster but it's not resolving for some reason. Probably the company killed the project.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] nibras_reeza:
Installed rc2. Looks fast and cool. Good job mur4ik.

The rom is laggy with default swappiness of 60 on class 2 SD but works faster at swappiness 10
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MalarKeY007:
1.139 on Quadrant!

RC2 is really Crazy with V6 SuperCharger and Overclock to 806MHz! Really!

Battery

I installed RC 2 last night, charged my phone and calibrate the battery before I went to sleep. I woke up this morning and my battery was on 60%.

Does anybody remember which milestone version had the best battery performance. I intended to flash the boot image but can't remmeber as I went back to 2.1 for a couple of months.

Thanks

Nik
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Mur4ik:
Did you compare result without V6 SuperCharger ?

niklfc83, RC2 has the best and right battery managment, do not forget that this not android 2.1, and lot of system components need a more power from our batteries. 1 day for ususal smartphone usage its a good result, 2 or more its a just phone usage. :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mirvashstorm:
oh my.... flashing the system img is taking me suuuuppppppeeeeerrrr long. its been sending data for morethan half an hour now.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] eoghan2t7:
i am happy with the days worth of battery ;) any more than than thats what i call cheeky lol
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] eoghan2t7:
stop the flash and try again doing the system img should only take about 10 minutes if even.

could someone mirror RC2 to dropbox for me??? the download link doesn't like me :L

Battery

Thanks for the replies guys. I do normally get about 1 1/2 days out of my phone using swiftdroid. I have data turned off most of the time and use SetCPU screen of profiles of 240mhz - 320 mhz.

I just thought it strange that I had lost 40% battery overnight with no use-age and full charge. I'll recharge tonight and wipe batt stats in CWM.

Thanks again Mur4ik, your ROM is great :)

Hey Mur4ik! Hummmmmmm, I haven't bench without V6 Script....

Ok, I have UnSuperCharged the phone, and restarted it. The Quadrant score now is 1.136 as you can see in the Screenshot! Score not changed, but with the V6 Script I don't have the launcher redraws (Android Fault, not the ROM) and things like that.

;) :D

Mur4ik, no offense, but I get the best battery results with M6 (just M6 boot.img and latest system.img). At least 2 1/2 days.

With RC1 that was solved, but with this RC2 i've again.

Someone alse have it?

P.S. Mur4ik, just a question: why in Settings -> Phone Info the mod-version appears as preRC2???

Thanks for your reply.

What about volume level during call?

U think it's caused by the data-restore (data backup from M4)? Is it possibile?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hackwerk:
USB 1 port?

Bad USB cable?

USB hub/front port instead of an on board USB port (backside of pc)?

Really, try these, because I also fixed problems like this, by switching the cable and/or ports!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hackwerk:
Again (sorry);

Can I create swap and ext partition (within recovery) without losing data/apps by first copying to PC, then partition/format and then putting all files back to SD?

My RC2 will detect the new swap and ext after first reboot?

And also; what FS and cluster size is recommended or is it auto in recovery?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] deamonjones:
Think it's 512mb ext and 128 swap but check make sure u back up sd card first! Cos will format the lot wiped! Have fun!

MY ANDROIDSKY
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hackwerk:
Backup = copy files to pc (and back)? Or do I need a special system/app/program?

And again; I am asking about file system (NTFS, FAT, EXT2, EXT3 etc) and cluster size (4K, 8K, 16K, 32K, 64K etc).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] deamonjones:
Back up on pc whole sd card and to be sure back up apps and data if you got clockwork do a back up aswell! You can never be too safe!

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Danzano:
If you want it to run quick your big partition will be fat32to stop issues with windows then two exit partitions id say 500mb and then 256mb swap but you can do less also increase your sd cache size and speed will help

Sent using Tt.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MalarKeY007:
The SDcard check for error because they unmount in use.

I think this isn't a ROM fault, I'll explain: when I installed the 2.1 Stock ROM the problem have persisted, check the SDcard connectors or put somenthing to force lock the card on the phone, like a paper. I solved my problem.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] m1st3r1:
Getting checking sdcard in every boot is ofc normal. I got that even in 2.1. But the unmounted problem is ofc not normal.
