F2FS

Starting from nightly of 17/MARCH/15 F2FS is now available. our kernel always support ext4
if you do not want to use F2FS there is no problem, you do not have to do anything the kernel automatically detect the type of file system.

if you want to use F2FS note these considerations:

* Do a clean install!
* F2FS reserve about 200MiB of space on each partition, so you can not use that space
* You must format the data and cache partition using TWRP recovery with F2FS support(can use this unofficial version compiled by me),
* When you format in F2FS as in any installation clean your files will be deleted, please do backup their stuff
* Only you can format data and cache partitions

How to format in F2FS?
into TWRP
1 - Go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe.
2 - Select /data or /cache (one partition at time, if you wish to use f2fs on both partitions, you will need to do it later in this way) and select Repair or change filesystem.
3 - Select Change filesystem.
4 - Select F2FS.
5 - Slide to agree for formatting selected partitions.
6 - Done

this ROM works incredibly well! i mean, wow. almost no lag, everything is smooth and snappy.
and with Torched kernel and F2FS, it just flies!

question: the download link eventually brings me to BasketBuild where nightly builds reside. very nice, but do you guys maintain a changelog? how do i know when it's worth to download a new build?

thank you so much for your great work!

Were you using CM12 prior by chance? If so, can you compare the two with respect to battery performance and other key areas? Thx

I was using Candy5.
Both are equally bad battery-wise (won't last a day with gapps enabled, unless you tweak the system).
However, this ROM is an order of magnitude faster than Candy5 1.0. I'm not kidding. I get near zero lag no matter what I do (I have F2FS, which speeds things up a lot on its own)

Thanks man! these are good news indeed!

about zram: are you guys sure it's a good idea? i hear using zram makes almost no sense on android: the compression doesn't work too well on the type of data we're storing in memory, so you get almost no memory gain but waste a lot of cpu power.

i once tried to enable zram in my rom on my very old but still kicking htc hd2 -- and reverted really quickly :) it slowed the things down a little bit and gave absolutely no improvement on memory

PAC is doing awesome, I followed the steps st forth by thelonewolf_pav, and it is just awesome, but for some reason my internal storage for my system got filled up really quickly, with just Gapps, facebook, Titaniam Backup, Trickster Mod, Kernal Turner and whatsapp. It says Swap is not enabled, so I don't think its swap that is taking the space. Everything else is good. Also I just saw in the changelog u added support for f2fs, so is it official now? Since I am already running on f2fs like
thelonewolf_pav
, do I need to do anything special when I flash the new rom zip with official f2fs support?

I already have a f2fs enabled TWRP, and I followed what thelonewolf_pav did to get f2fs without losing data. I took backups of cache and data partitions and changed their names from ext4 to f2fs and restored which made TWRP reformat the partitions as f2fs and also restore my data, so that is how I am f2fs, given that, would I be alble to just flash the rom zip and gapps?
Thanks :)

for f2fs, does only the cache and data have to be f2fs, why doesn't the system partition switch to f2fs instead ext4?

for the moment not yet. to use F2FS on the system partition we have to modify our script installation, possibly in a future we can use, but at the moment no. xD

I just dirty flash the ROM, flash SU to keep root, and wipe caches. Works great.
This is the only LP ROM that lets me listen to Pandora while reading Kindle (or any other program) at the same time.

:good:
