Generic framework "framework-2.jar" introduced in v2.4 and above (teamed up with Yank555, Googy, Teufel, AndiP, Temasek), this is to get rid of proprietory framework naming conventions and come up with an aligned approach between rom and kernel devs.Q: HOW CAN I RUN PAC/BAM rom with this kernel ??
So please do pass this message along to your favorite ROM devs, we have stopped supporting additional frameworks with specific ROM names.(Bam Rom & PAC to be precise) Note that only framework-2.jar is supported, (instead of framework-pac.jar or framework-bam.jar) you have to rename depending on ur rom
A: Ask rom dev to rename framework-bam.jar or framework-pac.jar to framework-2.jar
AND / OR
In Aroma File Manager in Recovery, rename framework-pac.jar or framework-bam.jar in /system/framework to framework-2.jar, clear Dalvik-Cache & reboot. - 06-12-2013 v3.0 ( CM 11 only ) :-

:victory::victory::silly: ) :-
==> Introducing my "ANYROM" kernel flash method AKA "Kernel Patcher-v4.2"
(Implementation of my old GALAXY ACE WORKS ) :-
- It extracts the installed kernel boot.img from the device
- It cracks it open to get the zImage and ramdisk
- it extracts this old ramdisk
- it removes any unwanted or conflicting elements with AGNi kernel (typically other custom CM kernel ramfs elements)
- It adds/removes/patches the files on this extracted ramdisk as necessary
- it packs this ramdisk and builds a new flashable boot.img using AGNi compiled zImage
- It places its log at /data/.AGNi which is refreshed on each pureCM kernel install
- This new boot.img is then flashed !!! Voila !
also it wont work over non-standard structured boot.img kernels like the ones supporting dualboot so u need to reflash rom without wipe then flash this
THIS "ANYROM" INSTALLATION METHOD DIFFERS WITH "ANYKERNEL" AS IT HAS THE FLEXIBILITY TO MODIFY RAMFS CONTENTS AS REQUIRED

Regarding AGNi sdcard1<-->sdcard0 Switcher when enabled:
- original sdcard0 obb data is available at /data/media/obb
- new sdcard1 obb data is available at /mnt/shell/emulated/Android/obb
- original sdcard1 userdata is available at /mnt/shell/emulated
you can move data between these as required.
KNOWN BUG:
Boeffla sound has minor incompatibily issue which makes its equalizer ineffective and its DAC-direct option needs to be kept ON for sound output
NOTE: CM 11 variant will set SELINUX PERMISSIVE

WHAT IS Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS)?
================================================================================
NAND flash memory-based storage devices, such as SSD, eMMC, and SD cards, have
been equipped on a variety systems ranging from mobile to server systems. Since
they are known to have different characteristics from the conventional rotating
disks, a file system, an upper layer to the storage device, should adapt to the
changes from the sketch in the design level.
F2FS is a file system exploiting NAND flash memory-based storage devices, which
is based on Log-structured File System (LFS). The design has been focused on
addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect of wandering
tree and high cleaning overhead.
Since a NAND flash memory-based storage device shows different characteristic
according to its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme, namely FTL,
F2FS and its tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.

F2FS FORMAT TOOLS: http://d-h.st/users/psndna88/?fld_id=34001#files (formating /DATA with these will wipe your internal storage in single shot !)
EXT4 FORMAT TOOLS: http://d-h.st/users/psndna88/?fld_id=34000#files (formating /DATA with these will wipe your internal storage in single shot !)
PSN TWRP v2.7.0.x (F2FS Modified):- (NEW 2.7.0.3 UPLOADED)
P3100 : HERE
P311x : HERE
TWRP Drawbacks:
1: it doesnt ask which filesystem to format, but if u have ext4 previously, wiping that partiton is done in ext4 and same with f2fs, so u have to use above tools once atleast for partitons of ur choice
2: it doesnt support restore of ext4 backups to f2fs formatted partitions, so u have to clean wipe to fully convert to f2fs (titanium backup is ur best friend)
3: I SUGGEST MANUALLY COPYING INTERNAL STORAGE DATA TO PC and making titanium backups before trying to format /data to f2fs
4: to flash rom to f2fs formatted recovery you have to edit the updater-script and put a # before the "format" line and # before all unmount lines and manually mount system and data in twrp prior to flashing any zip. (i will post detailed updater-script modifications lateron)
5: on formatting /data to f2fs from ext4 or vice versa, twrp fails to mount /data, reboot to recovery again and all will be fine

About LZ4 compression/decompression:
LZ4 is a very fast lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed at 300 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores CPU. It also features an extremely fast decoder, with speed in GB/s per core, typically reaching RAM speed limits on multi-core systems.
ADVANTAGE OF LZ4 OVER SNAPPY = higher speed with almost same marginal cpu usage for Zram
