[Q] Apps2sd on XT701 - Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh

Hi, quick question.
I have a modified ROM (still 2.1.1) Running on my XT701, and the biggest favor I could get from u guys is a pointer in the direction of how I can accomplish to have
APP2SD work on it.
I have already partitioned my class 10 16GB card with ext3 (and swap) but I think my ROM does not support it.
my ROM is "black sea droidx" and u can find it on modmymoto...
Thank you so much!

[REQUEST] Froyo ext 2/3/4 apps2sd

The only Rom Ive found with the old style linux ext partition apps2sd is a modaco premium kitchen rom, and i dont have a premium modaco account. Can someone implement this as a addon zip for the existing rooted froyo rom? Or maybe just make a new rom?
I looked around for documentation on how to implement this my self and haven't found anything useful.
from what ive read,froyo doesnt use this method.there are a couple of threads on using ap2sd on froyo.an easy fix.
i suggest if you want something from modaco premium account,you join up as i did.i doubt anyone here is gonna give you access to what theyve donated to.
the roms we have now are more or less test roms.source has not been released so you will most likely not see anything new until its released.
ne thing i cant believe is the way google implemented apps2sd on froyo. That was the reason for me to revert back to 2.1 CM 5.0.7.1
so +1 to this request. but i guess cyanogen will handle that, if he does a froyo version of cm, when froyo is final!
I liked the linux partition app2sd implementation better as well. Keeps the file-system available for the phone and the fat32 available to mount to a PC or whatever.
Yeah, I'm curious to see why they didn't use ext 2/3/4...
Fat32 app storage sucks. Anything with a widget has to be stored on phone.

[Q] Android 4.0 and the little ROM ???

Hi
I want to buy a refurbished Nexus One to install Android 4.0 or 4.1 on it. and this will be my first android phone
But I'm worried about it's little ROM !just 512MB
How much memory will be available after installing 4.0 for apps ?
Can I install apps on SD memory card completely or they will use some of ROM memory too ?
Does installing 4.0 courses my apps and games run slower than before ?
Thsnks a lot
if u need to run anything beyond 2.3 then u need to install BLACKROSE (a custom bootloader) and change the hboot partitions.
and yes u need to partition ur sd card and apps should be placed in sd ext, which might be lil slower

Thanks a lot
If I use SD Memory ,internal ROM will not be used for apps at all? You mean the partition on SD memory will be used instead ?
Can I use SD mem on 2.3 version too ?
Can I use a high speed SD to speed up running apps ?
Can I do All this thing with HTC Desire too ? these two phones are so similar !
Thanks

yes you can. you need to create ext partition first. provided your rom/kernel supports it(which every rom/kernel does)
yes you can do this wid gb roms too.
u need a fast sd (class 6 or above) for apps n games to load faster

Although the N1 has only 512MB, don't underestimate its ability to take on ICS and JB ROMs The latest JB 4.2 ROM can be flashed on N1!!!

Currently in XDA, there are no such kernel exist for both custom and tw JB Roms. Unless you are willing to go back to ICS then there is a possibility (sorry for the lack of info, it has been a while since i last used ICS).
From what I know, you'll have a better chance of finding such kernel (not a lot of options either) for Custom JB Roms outside of XDA. Just be really careful of what you flash and you should be fine.
can't we just partition sd card, and mkswap /dev/block/mmcblkwhateverp2 and swapon /dev/block/mcblkwhateverp2 ?

[Q] Increase RAM use SWAP partition

Hello guys..
I've already search about this in XSP's part but not (yet) found one, so i'm decided to ask
Sorry if this question so noob :fingers-crossed:
Okay then, is there (possibility) mod/tweak/method to use SWAP partition for increase RAM in our beloved device??
Hmm, in my opinion this method can't use easily because the most important thing with it is kernel. Correct me if i'm wrong :fingers-crossed:
Why i want use it? Okay, there some method to solve this like use RAM Manager PRO, deodex ROM and debloated apps, or use Custom ROM which have minimal or basic android packages. Yea it help in some case, BUT I need more. Sorry for this b*ll**** reason
Thanks
this may help you >> [GUIDE] [FAT32] [EXT4] [SWAP] [2.3+] How to Partition your Android MicroSD Card
Swapper 2 can also be used to setup a swap FILE as swap, but didn't work in SP with stock kernel. Looks like our stock kernel doesn't have support for swap..
I am also looing for RAM swapp. anybody can help?

Storage Space - Internal Limitation

I have just got my hands on a Galaxy Ace S5830 It will be my spare /temporary phone for a while so I thought I would have a play with it So far it's a great little phone.
It was on the standard rom but I am greedy and I now have ROOT + CWM 5.0.2.6. and then upgraded to Kitkat For All [CWM.5.x] CM 11, Omni & Omega by Salim PS earlier today and it's much nicer than the stock stuff.
The only problem I am having is the totally crap internal storage limitation Is there anything that can be done to increase it? Once I install a few apps I am totally out of internal storage space Which is no fun at all...
I have had a look around but i really don't know what I am looking for Can you help...

You need a rom that uses a Kernel with swap support and you need to partition your sd with CWM (advanced settings). No cm11 kernel has swap support and link2sd don't work either. Some Cm 10.1 and below do. I just suggested to another member who was after a good rom to use this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2599760 Use S2 touchwizz style with cronmod. Partition your sd first. Instructions are probably on here for that but i just followed this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U_Sp_BtzrM
I think all the reading I've recently done regarding up/downgrading the ace's software has fried my brain, So I had a couple of days off and just enjoyed using a new phone.
Anyway I can't believe how simple that was Thank you very much, I put in an 8GB SD and set my SD ext to 1GB and all is well, Running nicely too with that rom.

Well i never knew that! I had the PSN cm7.2 + 9 ics + 10.1 jb swapall scripts as zip's but i couldn't find one for cm11. The only thing that put me off the 4.4.4 KK rom was not having swap. Damn i wish my phone was working now I hope the jig works
