Has anyone tried this with F2FS file system on /cache & /data?! Anything to watch out for, I'm assuming i'll need to finish off any rom flash by flashing "ace_f2fs_fstab_script_cm12_v3.zip" right?!
[ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightlies / Releases [EOL]
- Thread starter Mustaavalkosta
- Start date
I haven't tried but it should work without any extra zip files. Same commits that enabled support for F2FS in 12.0 seem to be in place for 12.1. This doesn't mean it will work though, just that it should work.
Flashed with F2FS and no issues. As a reminder you don't need to flash f2fs script. Build comes with f2fs conversation. Also as I haven't test out on other Gapps, I encountered some few issues with Gapps minimal edition by jajb.
full review coming up in some few days with screenshot.

please whats the new changes on this CM 12.1
Here's Mustaavalkosta's post from the page before this! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=59950066&postcount=20
The latest build (20150408) has OTA updater app included again but it won't see any updates for 12.1 until I've finished the backend stuff for it which should be done before the next build. Testing is in progress at the moment.
All About L Part II [Quick Breakdown]
OTA Updates
We’ve taken a lot of effort to make sure that should you jump from CM11 to 12.1 or 12.0 to 12.1, your data will stick with you.
Superuser (Root Privileges)
Integrated in Privacy Guard.
Settings > Privacy > Privacy Guard for these controls (long press an app in this view to see all permissions it’s requesting and manage them accordingly).
Trebuchet
Trebuchet can now toggle between the traditional paged layout view of your app drawer and a new vertical layout – complete with quick scrubber to locate your needed app at a much improved pace (looking at you Uber). Find the setting in the overview drawer in Trebuchet (long press Trebuchet home screen, then slide the panel up).
Settings app (What's new)
added the top level on/off switches to Wireless settings (WiFi, BT, etc).
reduced the length of the settings dashboard
notification management
notification drawer
security and lockscreen settings
Navigation ring targets and Lock screen shortcuts have new configuration views
LiveDisplay
LiveDisplay is our new go to for panel calibration – color temperature, automated effective times, lower power consumption, screen color and color calibration. The final result brings something akin to f.lux control to your Android device (please note that the range of controls available will vary by device hardware and what your device actually supports).
Ambient Display (hardware dependent)
12/12.1 now makes it even easier to digest your content at-a-glance, and decide if notifications are worth your time.
nightlies, nightlies, nightlies ...
Happy Flashing... :laugh:

I was Installed cm-12.1-20150408-UNOFFICIAL-ace.
Turn up device.
Look at loading screen for 25 minutes, when loading is finished, I saw black screen, one time i saw first menu from CM and notice: keyboard is closed (crashed), and i can't disable black screen.
I reboot the device, and waiting loading again for 5 minutes, after i saw "first menu" for 1 second and black screen, wait and saw CM menu.
After greeting menu, i go to main screen and saw notice : ram is not enough for system, need minimum 250Mb space. I can't hide this notice.
System have much lags
Loading screen is too long :crying:

CM12.1 Quick Review [build 20150405]
After some few days of cm12.1 here are my takes
am not talking about features over here.
am looking at what has improved over cm12 and the improvement for our device.
first i ended up in a serious mess after flashing gapps minimal edition by jajb but thankfully am back on track with the latest build 20150404 everything works fine.
my little advice is that,
you flash cm-12.1-2015xxxx-UNOFFICIAL-ace build first, setup your device, wait for it to settle for some minutes.
flash gapps-5.1.x-2015xxxx-minimal-edition-signed.
experience the sweetness
little hicups
when setting up owner name under settings->users You(Owner) a dialogue box appears below that "the contact doesn't exit"
fix
sign in your gmail account. (i.e if you haven't)
cLock cannot automatically detect geolocation, unless set it manually.
this is also seen in cm12 (but i cant actually remember the build when i first discoreved it)
fix
with the help of gapps, gps automatically detect your location, so flashing gapps fixes it.
screen pinning now works with hw keys
touch and hold back overview at the same time to unpin
aside that everything works fine on my side.
best regards

I have two questions for CM12.1:
Q1: What does this statement really mean?
///////////////////////////////
We’ve taken a lot of effort to make sure that should you jump from CM11 to 12.1 or 12.0 to 12.1, your data will stick with you.
///////////////////////////////
Does it mean I could upgrade from CM12 to CM12.1 thru OTA?
Q2: If I want to flash GAPPS 5.1, do I need to wipe GAPPS 5.0.2's /system or /data before flash it?
Or just flash it?
Thank you.

Exactly what it means.
CM is making it as possible as you can to upgrade from CM11 upwards without any issues through OTA update.
Which Mustaavalkosta is also trying as much as possible to make it available to all of us on our legacy device.
no matter where you are.
Well if you still have doubts, here is what CM has to say about Android 5.1
You could try paulb_nl's solution "Remove bootanimation.zip from /system/media. That worked for me."

I got the answer from GAPPS thread: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-minimal-gapps-gapps-lp-20150107-1-t2997368
I am seeing the same lag and the space 250M warning
is there any fix for those two important issues?

Quick question. I have a message "Storage Space Running Out. Not enough storage for system. Make sure you have 250Mb of free storage and restart". I doubt it's a ROM issue (most likely user issue). It's a clean install (pretty sure i wiped everything) installed 12.1 (20150405) and gapps-510-base-20150404-signed.zip. with no other app installed. Should I just start again, wipe install - just wondering whether my partitions sizes are configured incorrectly (i.e. too small) - is there any scripts out there where i can verify the size of the system partition?!
Hello
OTA updates will be allowed also for people like me which have S-ON (which need to flash boot.img separately?)
Thanks

ROM OS Version: 5.1.x Lollipop

Based On: CyanogenMod
Version Information
Status: No Longer Updated
Created 2015-04-02
Last Updated 2018-10-0535aceopt
"aceopt" builds seem to be working decently for the things I wanted to test them before releasing them with installation instructions so here we go.
Disclaimer: You will lose everything on your sdcard if you follow these instructions so take appropriate steps to secure your data before continuing. Also this will be a "clean flash" from the start due to different partition layout.
Prerequisites:
- TWRP 2.8.7.0 for aceopt by @jrior001
- aceopt build of your choosing
- Gapps and addons if you want them. IIRC, there was around 400-500MB space left on new /system partition after flashing base gapps package so there's a bit more room for addons.
- If you have already partitioned your sdcard you may want to repartition it to have only single partition because you won't benefit from having separate sd-ext partition with this variant build. I won't write anything about this as I expect you can reverse what you have done yourself.
Installation instructions:
- Flash TWRP-aceopt-2.8.7.0-unofficial.img in fastboot or your current TWRP (Install > Images > etc.)
- Reboot to recovery even if you are already in TWRP. You need to reboot to be in newly flashed aceopt TWRP.
- Wipe cache and system under Advanced wipe.
- Convert your sdcard to either EXT4 or F2FS under Advanced wipe by choosing data partition > Repair or Change File System > Change File System > EXT4 or F2FS.
- (Optional) If you had your old /data partition formatted as F2FS you also need to convert it to EXT4 meaning converting system partition in the aceopt recovery.
- At this point your sdcard is completely empty so you will need to move the ROM zip and any additional zips into sdcard or use adb sideload.
- Install cm-12.1-XXXXXXXX-UNOFFICIAL-aceopt.zip and gapps.
- Reboot
Notes:
- This is no miracle cure to old device. It will mainly provide more storage space for user apps. Nevertheless, with fast sdcard this is likely as fast as this device will get due to pre-optimization involved and also due to usage of default ART dex2aot filter which is set to interpret-only in regular ace builds to save space which means most of the speed improvements that ART brought are gone.
- Apart from pre-optimization, dex2aot filters and different partition layout these builds are exactly the same as regular builds.
- Update flashes work as usual. If you want to perform clean flash afterwards just do factory reset and manually format system. DO NOT manually format data under any circumstances unless you want to lose everything on emulated sdcard too. You can think of formatting data in aceopt recovery is the same as formatting your sdcard in regular ace recovery. I have accidentally completely emptied my Nexus 5 by doing this so many times it's not even funny anymore.
- If you want to switch back to regular ace builds later on you will need to format your sdcard again to have meaningful directory structure in it, or manually fix it.
- Make sure you regularly backup your sdcard as a whole to protect yourself against sdcard hardware failure which will technically make all your user app data and sdcard data to disappear. I use Win32DiskImager to backup my Raspberry Pi sdcard and it should be ok for this purpose too on Windows. You can find other ways on other OSs from your favorite search engine.
- Old /data is now /system
- Old /sdcard is now both /data and /data/media (emulated sdcard).
- Old /cache is still /cache
- I might have forgotten something from this guide post. I'll update it if necessary.
20Busy, busy, busy...
This little fellow joined me today on my journey to maximum awesomeness. I'll be rather busy keeping him fed, active and safe for a while thus my time here will be more limited while he's figuring out the big world. For those interested, he's a Finnish Lapphund and just 7 weeks old.
It seems that I will be also moving in a month to more peaceful place at the countryside leaving the city behind. For some reason I always seem to get multiple big life changes happening to me at once. Anyways, things will be quite hectic for me at least during June.
I'm not abandoning anything though. Things will just slow down a bit and I thought it's polite to give a heads-up so everybody knows what to expect from the near future. Nothing prevents everyone else here to rock on helping each other to figure things out in the meanwhile. :good:1817I've been tinkering with something interesting for our low storage space issue to take my mind of WebView crash for a while since solving that issue became quite unproductive use of my time. Essentially I first changed the OS use data partition as system partition and then sd-ext partition as data partition but it felt somewhat clumsy to use since sd-ext is fixed in size.
Then I decided to try if it was possible to convert the OS to think we are running emulated sdcard device with only internal storage available. This practically meant reformatting sdcard as EXT4 (or F2FS) and mounting it as /data and making some changes to convert sdcard to be emulated one. In a nutshell, this gives you shared storage space for user apps and sdcard (just like internal storage only devices).
With the 8GB class 4 card that came with my device: http://i.imgur.com/Mvcvm0V.png
This setup allowed the system to be pre-optimized and by using PIC pre-optimization system boots up without optimizing or moving any dex files to anywhere (excluding gapps) which means first boot is "quite" fast.
This will require some changes to recovery to be used properly so I've been working with jrior001 to likely release separate TWRP build for this purpose. These builds will be built under different device variant called "aceopt" because this will require some level of knowledge from users to comprehend what's happening and not to break anything so I don't really want to force this change on everyone. Since this isn't 100% ready to go yet there can still pop up unexpected issues but hopefully nothing too difficult to solve but FYI this can still hit the wall. Having full sdcard available as space available for you to use seamlessly would be very nice though. Keep your fingers crossed for us.
