Are you running on Semaphore? Only then the script makes sense. Yes, I can give it to you...

I'm trying speedmod now, but if you can share this with me maybe I return to shemaphore and try it
Thanks a lot

Hi Andi,
I have installed the new Addon too. And it looks very good. I have no problems in the moment.
I have installed the stock one.

Hi,
on popular demand (I got many PMs on that topic after it has been brought up in the thread) I finally decided to release my ext4 remount script I am using for many months now together with Semaphore Kernel versions and file system converted to ext4.
It does nothing else than putting a small script into the init.d folder which gets executed everytime the phone starts and then remounts all 4 partitions with a commit time of 15 seconds. It does NOT remove journaling, change the writeback strategy from orderd to writeback or any other stuff, so it can be treated as fairly safe.
What should it improve? There is no confirmed status as such, but from my personal experience I feel the phone a bit more smooth and performant (as it does not do writes to the file system instantly when not required) and maybe it safes a bit battery. But only my personal opinion. You can give it a try yourself and decice.
Thanks
Andi
I feel that a commit period of up to 60 seconds is safe. ThunderBolt! have been using 60 seconds commit with no barriers for quite a while now without any problems.
Hi,
thanks for your answer, very good to get your opinion on that.
I decided to go for very safe settings for now, which I used for months without issues. I remember I had some issues with barriers set to 0 in the past.
But I might provide a second version of the add-on with more aggressive settings as well for users that are willing to take some risk

Just be careful with consecutive freezes/random reboots. Those can corrupt even the most hardened remounts.

Uhm.... but so would increase the risk of data corruption in case of freezing of galaxy, or it is not so? I am doubtful about this addon

The risk is there (even with the stock remounts, there is also a risk), just that there's much more gain that can be had using the riskier ones than just relying on the stock remounts.
And thats is why I made it optional as an add on.
In theory you are right. I can just speak out of many months positive experience

Ok i understand.
Probably i will try it... at bottom the risk is low and i always have the backups.
Hi,
I think it is safe to give it a try.
I was some month ago (during tuning the script) doing a lot of "hard" tests. I.e. was using an app that does not shutdown the phone properly (i.e. QuickBoot) and in many tests I never had any data loss or corruption.
That's why I decided to release it now for you.
Thanks
Andi
Hallo Andi,

Hello Andi,
Very nice theme.
It works perfect on my SGS.

Thanks!
