Stock battery icon

Hi,

First of all, thaks to everyone for this ROM. Works like a charm. My only complain is the battery icon so i would like to return to the stock one. Is it possible in version 0.8.4?

Regards.

Hi all! When I first flashed this ROM a year ago, I turned on a2sd as well as dc2sd immediately after. However, recently I thought the lag was too much to bear - installing/uninstalling apps would bring the phone to a complete halt, and programs would lag for no apparent reason. I was using a class 10 16GB micro sd card with an ext2 partition.

I searched this thread and many others in vain, trying to get rid of this lag. Someone said something about disabling aufs to get rid of lag, but later said it was not conclusive. I decided to take matters into my own hands and do some testing. To make a long story short, if you had dc2sd turned on, your phone might be lagging often. There doesn't seem to be a way to turn off dc2sd by itself, so in order to fix this, you must (assuming you still want a2sd on):

1. make a nandroid to be safe
2. use mybackup root to backup all apk + data
3. use terminal emulator or adb shell to turn off a2sd (a2sd --disable)
4. reboot to recovery and clear dalvik cache (?)
5. reboot to get out of recovery
6. use terminal emulator or adb shell to turn on a2sd (a2sd --enable)
7. reboot
8. restore apk+data using mybackup root

you will be missing a lot of internal storage space, but the speed increase is worth it. this is just a fyi, in case anyone has this problem..

Boot fail/ continual boot animation

I tried installing B about a half-hour ago, and the boot-animation is as far as I got- I let the phone sit for about twenty minutes.

I suspect the downgrade process to RUU 1.31 that I followed for installing custom roms has something to do with it. Here's the whole story of what the phone's been through to date.

Any suggestions on what to do/confirmations on the RUU 1.31 thing?

Thanks! :)

    Issues

    • Adobe Reader FC when you press BACK

    • using system overlay with data2ext followed by a power failure may corrupt ext2 file system on SD card
    • hostname resolution not working due to changes in framework
    • two suns/moons on clock widget
    • some resource grafx inconsistencies
    • missing some APNs from stock ROM
    • Stocks app FCs
    • some people reported ocasional Wi-Fi problems (it shows connected but no data can go through)
    • some people reported problems syncing contacts from FaceBook
    • Opera Mini FCs with Arabic framework

    Notes

    1st boot will take several minutes for dalvik-cache to generate coz ROM is deodexed! Because every app is deodexed, dalvik-cache will grow ~20 MB bigger.

    kernel
    Default kernel speeds are 246 MHz min and 600 MHz max. It can be overclocked to max 806 MHz and underclocked to min 123 MHz. Default governor is ondemand. To change those parameters (speed or governor), use SetCPU or you can make a script run by run-parts that sets those parameters for you on every boot.

    kernel modules
    Loading kernel modules is done by editing /data/local/modules file. Modules are added separated by spaces or one per line (ext4 and ipv6 added by default).

    system overlay
    You can check this thread on how to use it but in general just execute "aufs --enable" and reboot for changes to take effect.

    partitioning
    If you want to use a2sd or data2ext you need 2nd partition on your SD card. For partitioning you can use my customized CWM fake-flash but if you want to know more about partitioning consider consulting this guide.

    formatting
    To use your newly created partition you first have to format it using format_sd-ext utility via adb shell or some terminal app (not while in CWM). Utility accepts one parameter which can be either ext2, ext3 or ext4 according to your needs.

    a2sd
    To use this feature you have to enable it first. You do that by executing "a2sd --enable" via adb shell or some terminal app. To relocate dalvik-cache also, execute "a2sd --dc2sd" too. Reboot for changes to take effect. To see how much space do you have on relevant partitions execute "a2sd --free". If you want to disable a2sd, execute "a2sd --disable". In this case you loose all apps and dalvik-cache needs to be recreated upon reboot so make sure to backup apps before disabling.

    data2ext
    To enable this feature, execute "data2ext --enable" via adb shell or some terminal app. Reboot for changes to take effect. If you have problems, logcat 1st several lines of boot process to see what's going on and post your findings. Questions like "Why is data2ext not working on my phone?" will be ignored! Mind also that a2sd and data2ext can not run simultaneously!

    CAUTION! Rebooting your phone while using this feature might result in some or all user data being lost!

    SSH server
    SSH server is disabled by default. If you wanna use it enable it by executing "chmod 755 /data/local/init.d/50sshd" and reboot your phone. Authentication is done by private/public key pair. To login you need to populate /data/dropbear/authorized_keys with your public ssh key.

    hostname
    Changing hostname of your phone is done by editing /data/local/hostname file. Default hostname is "legend". If you don't want your phone to have hostname just delete contents of /data/local/hostname (make it zero size).

    boot animation
    If you want to change boot animation just "adb push" new bootanimation.zip to /data/local directory.

    F.A.Q.

    Answer to any frequently asked question here is:

    SEARCH THE THREAD COZ IT WAS ANSWERED BEFORE! PROBABLY MORE THAN ONCE!

    ...so if you are tempted to ask a question, you now know what to do 1st!

    If anyone wants a stripped down and moded version of this ROM, our friend ogo2 prepared us one. It is called nDAF!
