Out of pure curiousity, what kind of file system is run on the SGS3. my last phone, the epic 4g was of course on RFS and had to be converted over into a MTD/ext4 format to get more preformance in the end. Is the Sgs 3 natively MTD ready? or will there be a conversion for Cyanogen mod at some point over to MTD.

Mtd is the partition not the file system.. BTW its mtd/yaffs2.

The stock filesystem of most new Android devices is ext4.

From
Code:
cat /proc/mounts
Code:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 /system ext4 rw,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 /efs ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 /cache ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,journal_async_commit,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc,discard 0 0
