No probs, the size just shows how little is changing in the gb rom now. And the assert failed for apply_patch_check is because the patcher checks md5 sums to make sure its patching the intended files (which in this case it isn't, due to what you said). You'll only ever see that on proper incremental OTA's as MIUI official use (and I used to), because only binary patches are included, not full apk's. Thats why the size is so small :)

I got a problem here. Usually I always get D2EXT and Cache2EXT since the phone itself has like no internal memory at all, but here it says I got 1,2Gb free of A2SD+, but is there a way to make it install and move all the apps on there? I literally can't install anything anymore, I don't have a clue what's taking the space even though I deleted almost everything, my space is low as heck, can't keep it over 15mb of free space as I usually tend to have tons of apps and games.

Can anyone tell me how to make apps install on the A2SD+ partition since I have no space on my internal, just a few mbs which are pretty much useless to me. If there's anything that can be done, I'm going with another ROM as never had probs with others.
[Desire Android Development] pinttas:
how can i have the ics rotation animation in this rom?
[Desire Android Development] jayroller:
Once again... (it's on the first page of this thread)

- get terminal from market

- Type su

- Type a2sd zipalign

- Type a2sd cachesd

- You may even need to do a2sd reinstall

:cool:
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
A bit of confusion here, you have mentioned data2ex (xpart) data2w and a2sd...out of the 3 rom versions can you highlight the rom version you are using.

A2SD not working

Hi,

I can't seem to get A2SD working. What I did:

I have 8GB SD card, and as second partition an EXT4 partition.

I did a full wipe of my phone.

Then I flashed the A2SD version of this rom.

I rebooted my phone.

Waited 10 minutes, for the phone to settle.

I checked 'manage applications' and the phone reports 44MB in use, 103MB free, so A2SD is not working. When I install new apps I see that they are eating up the 103MB space that is left. I have an EXT4 partition of 748MB however.

I then tried:

a2sd repair

a2sd zipalign

a2sd reinstall

But nothing seems to get it to work. Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] TRSolebum:
try:

a2sd install

a2sd cache2sd
[Desire Android Development] undasein:
You can also try this command in terminal:

"a2sd datasd" : Move /data/data to /sd-ext/data
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
Mmmmm that made my phone very laggy and that's with a class 4 SD....probably better going to xpart rom.cost that essentially what were doing here moving data to SD ex besides the app itself.I found problems arise when you try 2 move it back with a2sd nodata.

I've tried this many a time

Believe command is a2sd datasd.
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
In terminal emulator type

Su (enter)

A2sd check ( enter)

Post a screen shot so we can see if your set up properly.

With a2sd the apps you down load are sent to SD extra only the data part remains in data/dalvic

So if you download apps around 90% goes to SD ex and 10% eats into internal storage...app qsi ( quick system info) will give you more detailed info on your current storage. Bear in mind if using a2sd you will only get limited internal storage, but as aforementioned the app coding goes to sdex.

After you do a2sd check look for the following...

Zipalign happens at boot

Apps are symbolically linked

Dalvic is on SDext.

A2sd cache SD moves dalvic within data to SD ex

A2sd data SD moves data and dalvic to SD...my experience is web browser fc due to write speed problems. Apps fc if more data is produced than can be written...

Just saying

Please excuse typos produced by drinking beer!

I bought new memory card. I'm using A2SD script. I want move all apps and files to new card. On older memory I have 7GB fat32 partition, and 1gb ext4. On new one I created 13GB fat32 partition, and the second is 1.5GB ext3. I used "cp -r * /my/new/ext3_partition_path" to copy all files, but the apps doesn't show in system. What is wrong? How do I do restore these apps with new card?
[Desire Android Development] pinttas:
ok, thanks.
[Desire Android Development] jayroller:
With the old card in: Nandroid backup, then copy the fat32 partition fom the old card to pc, then copy this to the new card, then restore your nandroid. (This will rstore sd-ext to your new, bigger ext3 partition). :)

He may need to make his new card ext4 just like his old one instead of ex3 since his files are copied from that ex type.

[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
Uhm, correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't that update just for the a2sd users? (The filename implies it anyways) :)
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
It states for all roms when flashing in recovery.
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
There were options for other rom versions though in 2.3.9...maybe Xj can shed some light.
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
Well, guess it doens't really matter if there aren't any changes made to kernel or script files anyway, so it would work on all rom versions regardless.. (But just a guess..)
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:

I made backup + ext on older memory card, then copied nandroid directory to a new card, then restored. It doesn't work.... Any other ideas?
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Maybe your old partition was ext4 and now you have ext3 or either way because it should work.
[Desire Android Development] localh0st:
Both are ext4...
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
You've said previously that your old card was ext4 and your new card is ext3.if you've done a nandriod back up and copied your fat32 files over to fat32 on your new card you should see your nandroid restore option in recovery....have you checked that your SD is unmounted in recovery
[Desire Android Development] localh0st:
1. I've formatted into ext4 (now new and old partitions are the same - ext4)

2. I made 'nand + ext" backup using old SD, then copied 'nandroid' directory from old SD do new.

3. I restored nandroid backup from new SD

Still I cant see any shortcuts to apps. Are there any needed files on fat32 (directories I should copy to new SD card)?
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
Your nandroid should have restored as is. Can you see if your apps have installed with manage applications.
[Desire Android Development] localh0st:
I just copied all files from fat32 partition and... everything is working.

Thanks a lot!
[Desire Android Development] karthikus:
Thanks for the rom XJ. Few clarifications needed !

1. Is there way to reduce haptic feedback on the lockscreen. ITs very annoying.

2. Is it possible to have the music controls on the lockscreen for some other music player say winamp.

3. I switched over to winamp because MIUI music failed to recognize my playlist. Is there a fix for that.?

4. Is the 4way reboot patch working on latest D2ext version of this rom.?

Thanks,

[Desire Android Development] brynte5:
i have 2 questions!

1 - how do I disable or set up the birthday reminder?

it reminds me twice!

3 days prior to birthdays and on the birthday!

the problem is that i get 4-5 reminders everytime and for every person, on both of those occasions!

i don´t like it and I´d prefer it disabled, or at least set up, to give me 1 reminder for every person!

2 - alternative to "quick controls"?

I´ve tried extended controls, but it doesn´t seem to work on this rom and I think I´ve read that somewhere else to, so no big surprise!

is there any other similar app that works fine on this rom?

how about swithpro?
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
1st make sure a2sd is configured properly. I've around 80 apps installed with 46mb internal memory free.

2nd get a good cache cleaner to get back some internal memory.
[Desire Android Development] Gisbourne:
I can answer No. 2:

Menu->Settings->System Tab->Hardware Key Settings->App for Media Keys (Select app as required).

Hope this helps as had a similar situation...

[Desire Android Development] xepap:
Titanium and X-part

Alright, this might well be a noob question, but here we go:

I'm running X-part and I consider doing a complete reinstallation of the ROM. I've made a fresh Titanium backup of all my apps (just the apps - no data). Here is my q:

Is there any difference in how Titanium restore my apps to X-part compared to downloading and reinstall them from Google Play? Does Titanium recognize the memory setup in x-part, or would it be smarter to download all the apps again because Google Play installs them in a smarter way?
[Desire Android Development] karthikus:
I tried this with winamp but with no luck ! I am using D2ext version of the rom. Any help. ?

Also with launcher pro i am getting screen tearing. Which implies some white lines at left corners in the app drawer when i open it. Also when i tried to use go launcher it was stuttered. For instance when i clicked contacts to open it, the animation to open the contact stutters. Why is that ?

I am looking for some launcher alternatives because the dock in the default MIUI launcher is very big for desire screen. And i am wondering why the heck such a good rom like MIUI offer a music player with poor playlist support. For instance i sync a playlist with double twist, it appears on every music player(winamp, doubletwist etc) but not on MIUI player. ?
[Desire Android Development] Smii:
Here's an interesting technical problem for you wonderful chaps.

I love Miui. It gives me everything I want from my phone - and generally speaking, it just works.

I tend to get about 24-48 hours out of my battery. I'm totally okay with that - battery life is really great, and I'm usually pushing the 2 days limit before needing to charge.

Recently though, I've been having a funny problem. Ever since I first flashed this, my battery would get to 10% (battery saver mode kicking in at 5%) and then the phone would turn off from being out of battery. When rebooted on mains, it reports as having 0% left, so somehow that final 10% has always eluded me. Because of the aforementioned long battery life, it's never really bothered me. It may however be a symptom...

Now, I'm having another problem. Performance is "fine" at the moment, it's snappy enough, responsive and hardly ever force closes...when the phone is charged. At anything between 100 and 50% it's okay to use, everything is pretty quick. But once the battery starts to dip below 50%, the phone slows to a crawl and becomes harder and harder to use without apps hanging (clicking wait usually - with patience - gets you going) and then below about 25% the launcher (I think -the bit which starts with the Mi xiami.com logo turning gold) just resets itself constantly. To the extent that it is restarting so often as to be unusable. The resolution is just to turn the phone off, pull the battery and try again. If that doesn't work, recharging is the only solution - and even then, it doesn't reset properly until you've turned it off completely and pulled the battery.

I'm currently on Miui XJ 2.3.9. I have over 250 apps installed (I'm a bit of a collector. I just enjoy using them!) on the Xpart version with a 1GB ext4 partition. I'm using a Sandisk class 6 8GB card that has always given excellent speeds.

Any ideas what would be causing this? I'm (as you might understand) reluctant to reflash given how many apps I've got installed. I'm wondering if resetting the battery stats would help at this stage? Help! It's really starting to annoy me.
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
I think a battery calibration would do real good for your battery.. I'm actually not sure about the reason for your phone getting slower as your battery drains, but in general, I would recommend you try the supercharger script, maybe even the Kitty Kernel ;-)

Some pages back you can find a link to the calibration thread and also how to setup supercharger :-)

What hboot are you using....reason I'm asking your phone can reboot at the miui gold ( boot animation) if the rom fails to load properly due to running out of system storage or on the borderline...that could also cause fc if the rom does boots.

I tried xpart to and I just could get it to run properly....apps fc....random freezes.....I put this down to formatting my SD card with a programme other than the recommended g parted.

I think I'm just on stock Hboot, I certainly don't remember ever changing or updating it.

I managed to find the supercharger script (and downloaded it) and the kitty kernel too. Do you think these will help? Is there any risk of this screwing everything up? ¬_¬

Sorry to ask silly questions - I recently tried to flash the four-way reboot menu but it didn't work and boot-looped! Luckily I could just flash the next XJ update over the top and that seemed to fix it. But still. I'm a bit nervous...

Also, am I right in thinking that the nandroid backup (I've got clockworkmod recovery) will restore the phone exactly as it is now? Or will bits and pieces be missing?

I've found the battery calibration things and I might try that. Part of me wonders whether this would benefit from a complete reflash but I sort of can't be bothered...! Sometimes the system updates seem to destabilise things, and the next fixes it.

Question.

Is the ota in fanboys for all roms, it says a2sd in the name. Reason Iam asking is when you flash in recovery it says for all versions.

All rom versions have been sharing the same single ota file for months now but the previous ota reverted back to individual files for individual rom versions or there abouts.
