Angry [MOD]UPDATE:6-14-11 Ladies and Gentlemen i bring you SGS4g EXT4

Ladies and Gentlemen i bring you ext4 sgs4g

What this does: Converts your system, data, and cache into ext4(system is optional)

What does that mean: Its basically like supercurios voodoo, makes phone performance boost DRAMATICALLY!!!

Improves graphics
higher quad scores(for those who care)
faster I/O performance

KNOWN ISSUES: if you convert system to ext4 you will have the battery issue along with the recovery issue

HOW DO I NOT CONVERT SYSTEM TO EXT4???

simply flash the rom after the converter and then either:

A:flash the rom again (BE SURE TO CHECK MOUNTS AGAIN!)over the same rom you just flashed

or

B: flash drhonks 2.1 kernel UV or non UV CHECK MOUNTS AGAIN!

or

C: restore ONCE


EDIT:^^^^ SLIGHTLY INCORRECT FOR NOT CONVERTING SYSTEM TO EXT4 ill edit it in the morning

NOW... if you decide you want to go back to rfs because you cant stand to see read writing when going into recovery(you just cant use recovery, but who uses recovery?? i only use CWM and you can still enter cwm when going into recovery)

then heres a rfs converter which will rewrite your files back to rfs

BEWARE: when using rfs converter it will format SDCARD so back it up before converting back


Now, here is what you need:

Krylons FINAL CWM

either non UV or UV version of dhonks 2.1 bali

ext4 converter, at the bottom of my post

go into cwm and make a back up

MAKE SURE YOU CAN RESTORE OR ELSE YOU WILL HAVE TO FLASH A NEW ROM!!

flash the ext4 converter



NOW as soon as its done flashing you need to do one of the following IMMEDIATELY:



A.flash a new rom

B. restore the back up you just made


EDIT: YOU GUYS HAVE TO CHECK MOUNTS IF INSTALLING A NEW ROM

POSSIBLY CHECK MOUNTS WHEN RESTORING AS WELL

NOTE: IF YOU ARE FLASHING A NEW ROM IT MUST HAVE DRHONKS 2.1 BALI KERNEL WITH EXT4 SUPPORT

IF YOUR RESTORING MAKE SURE YOU BACKED UP WITH DRHONKS 2.1 BALI INSIDE

then my friends,

you now have an ext4 system, data, cache

go ahead and give the phone about 10 to 20 minutes to adjust

have some F'ing fun


make sure to let me know if you encounter any problems

Rodderick for the original guide
dameon for this ext4 converter
Creator of RFS formatter
krylon for ext4 CWM(you guys probably didnt know it was compatible)
and drhonk for ext4 Kernel
and of course as always the community
