I am trying to include this in a Droid Incredible rom but I can't figure out how to find the kernel base address.

I tried using 0x20000000 because I thought it may be the same as the Evo but it won't boot for me.

How is the kernel base address determined? I have the kernel source, I just don't know where to look...

That's a good question. There are documents out there to determine the address, but they don't work.

I had a program that would do that, but it also doesn't work.

The Legend was given to me by UltimoJedi (he has a Legend and does rom development).

I'll see if I can find it, but it may take someone giving up the address like it did for the Legend.

You can try the Legend address and see if that works.

If I find it, I'll let you know and I will post it in the Rom development guide.

Hi!
After more than an hour of experimenting and failing I have a simple question:

Is my ROM "compatible with" the Darktremor A2SD method?
Or more important, is the Dalvik2cache or dalvik2sd part compatible with my rom. Phone: HTC Hero. ROM: Chocolate Eclair 2.0 (default kernel).



Extra info:

- I did install A2SD 2.5 (and dalvik2sd) successfully on an older installation. Went without a hiccup.

But now:
- Even on the original install the dalvik2cache didn't work.

- I manually removed the 20dalvik2cache file in init.d and installed the 2.7 3r1. Run A2SD repair, and everything shows okay in the results from A2SD check.
Rebooted the phone, and voila, everything back on the internal memory. Tried the same and executing the cleancache command; same result

- I flashed the 2.7.5 pf 4a 'method'. Saw it removing stuff before installing.
same story with repair, okay results from check, reboot -> back to internal. Also tried this with a2sd dalvik2sd, looked promising in check, again no result.

Am I missing something really obvious that I should have done? I really want the dalvik cache out of my internal memory ... Or at least know I can give up

Cheers

Is the apps on the SD card? If so, type a2sd cachesd

If you don't know, type a2sd check

Since you're on the GSM Hero, you shouldn't have the same issues as the Desire and Legend users.

[QUOTE=tkirton;7025105]Your android phone is designed to store applications in the phone's internal storage under the directory /data/app and /data/app-private.




so. i have followed the steps you listed over and over and still cant get the a2sd to work. im running evil eris 3.0. ive wiped the sd and the phone did a new flash of ee3.0 and then re flashed the a2sd file posted in this thread. what am i doing wrong everytime i look in the explorer my sd/data doesnt exist. i look in my sys/bin folder and see where a2sd is, i try to execute anything that says a2sd and it says app is not available. what do i need to try to get this working. its one of my top reasons why i wanted root in the first place. please help

1. Did you flash this: http://www.darktremor.info/files/eri...nel-signed.zip
2, The programs are stored in /system/bin.

But try flashing the EE3 kernel first.

Hi Kirton,

Today i can make normal bootable ROM that include your direct methode A2SD, but when i check it, app2sd not loaded.

I moved your last script in init.rc above bootcomplete, so i think it,s will load a2sd before booting.

Maybe the problem in a2sd scripts, do you have any idea for htc legend?

Thanks.

rewiped started from scratch rewiped everything. flashed ee3. partitioned my sd again. then flashed a2sd. flashed ee3 kernel.

well after that i did adb shell and ran a2sd cachesd reboot. so far this has been harder than rooting my leaked 2.1 and flashing roms hell its harder than using eclipse beyond hello world.. good times

I presume it didn't work then.

Run a2sd check to see if you see any descrepancies and to see where everything is stored.

There has been discussions regarding the Legend to add a delay before starting a2sd.

The other is to do a mknod to create /dev/block/mmcblk0p2.

You can try both of those to see if that helps. RC1 will have the second built in, but my schedule has been very hectic, so I haven't completed logging yet.
