Hi everyone... have a question... It's possible to enable swap support on our droids? and if it's how?. Because I'm tired of everytime a switch from one app to another it kills one of them. Thanks!
bump, after a long search it seems to be imposible because current kernel don't have have swap support and with a locked bootloader we can't change the stock kernel, i hope some day motorola unlock our droids bootloader or someone can do it . If i'm wrong please let me know. Thanks!
I activated a swap file on my Droid 3 using mkswap and swapon as root from the command line. The kernel recognized the swap space, but as soon as the phone ran out of memory and tried to swap something, it rebooted.
I'd be interested in hearing if anyone else has had a different result.

It suprised me that kernel recognize you the swap space...do you create swap file in your internal memory or a sd memory?
Edit: I tried this morning but i have the same results as you... as soons it starts to use virtual momery it rebooted.
edit: Well i play with swappines but same results as soon our device started to use swap it rebooted..perhaps someone with more knowlegde can do something about it...it would be great if someone can do it.
Like all file systems, support for swap must be coded in the kernel (it's not), or added by kernel modules . . . Which would have to be specifically compiled against OMAP4 source code, I think, to work. I'm not a programmer, so I can't help directly. See if whoever provided the community the tun.ko kernel module for D3 can whip us up a swap module. Still, our kernels are locked, so the swap.ko would have to be added to a /preinstall aka 2nd-init kernel. Maybe Hashcode can help?
BTW: this thread should be in development, not General, I think

I use swap all the time. For instance, currently my phone has 111M RAM free and is using 162M of swap.
I've created a swap partition on an SD card and use that, so no swap file.

Yes, please explain what you did to obtain Swap. The last Android device I had with functioning swap was the G1/HTC Dream, and we had swap because custom kernels had support for it an modules created the fs every time android booted. Whether a swap partition was created and mounted was up to the rooted user. I have used the makeswap and swapon commands with busybox from the command line and could not get the swap partition to show up in mount. Which address block did you use to create the partition? I tried /dev/mmcblk1p025 and 26 (sdcard and emmc?) and neither worked.
BTW: Many intelligent minds say swap in Android is useless since the Java/DalvikVM is so aggressive about reclaiming memory (just watch logcat to see that happening non-stop). You would have to swap to a device that is as fast as your secondary storage (meaning the 512mb of DDR2 installed in the XT862) in order to "beat" Dalvik's garbage collection and "augment" the natural AndroidOS memory management. One of the gifts of running bytecode in Java is that one does not usually address RAM directly (unless you jump out of Java with some C/C++ code), the OS is always handling your classes-to-registers allocation for you, the developer. In other words, it's Android's job to manage your memory, and if you ask the linux kernel and file system to cache registers to the comparatively "slow" sdcard (flashmem is slower than DRAM), you'll essentially be blocking Android's ability to handling your instructions, data, and files because it will then have to go pick up that data from a slow swap partition. When we were trying to push the G1's limits (which was delivered with a paltry 64mb of userdata space), swap made sense because the time it took to request stuff from swap was much slower than recreating threads out of compcache (compressed and old handles). 512mb is still relatively big for a device, and Android, like Linux, will always buffer most of your memory to make sure you don't run out of space for your apps. I am not a programmer so I may have messed up some of the finer points--but this is the gist of Android-vs-Swap as some see it.

Swap will have to be setup on the external sdcard, which is /dev/block/mmcblk0p
mmcblk0p1 - * would be the partitions
Exactly, setup a swap partition on an ext SD card, then swap on it. Never had a prob.
I don't really care about Android memory usage and management, I need swap because I run GNU/Linux in a chroot, and for that the measly 150M that the Droid 3 has free by default is useless...
I really like DROID 3 and would get it but 512 of RAM and locked bootloader are killing me. But I can't imagine a better device than this one if those two factors didn't count.
Please tell me that something can be done with ICS, low RAM and custom kernels?
ICS runs good and the only reason I tweak my memory settings is just because Words with Friends is a battery hog and so is FB sometimes. I never seem to run out of RAM.
If you like the keyboard, why not get a Droid 4?
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
Droid 4 doesn't support GSM networks and I am from Europe where most of the carriers are GSM and so is mine. Droid 3 xt862 is a global phone (both CDMA and GSM) and Milestone 3 xt860 - GSM only. Besides Droid/Milestone 3 looks much better than D4 as for me.

Hey guys,
Sorry to ask, and forgive me for been dumb, not really a Linux user here.
I need help with some details. I have my Hero - rooted with 0.7 Fresh 8GB SD on it.
What is the advantages of partitioning your SD - let's assume :
Swap-size = from 32mb to ummm 1024MB
Ext2-size = from 512mb to ummm another 1024mb.
Is there any standard procedure/requirement for this.
Also, let's assume I did this and this the following :
SD: ext2 to ext3
Can anyone put this in English language for me
I did all of this and was hoping that my phone would reflect a different internal memory size, but it still shows what I had before. I also noticed under "computer management that my SD got reduced by the amount I specified earlier from HTC Recovery mode.
Many thanks in advance
There are 2 different methods for setting up Apps2SD the most common method does not show any reflection in your About Phone screen. The other UNIOn method does, but i have seen very few people use this and I have not clue how to do it. No big deal either way you do it.
If you load the newest recovery from AMON_RA you can specify the size of your partitions. It seems like you are probably using this.
If you ever fill up a 1 gig swap someone wrote a very badly handled program in terms of memory. Swap = Linux version of the Windows Page file. The more you have doesn't necesarily mean the phone will move faster, it just means you have more room to grow. you are still using RAM for programs currently in USE. Swap just holds the stuff out of RAM until it is needed.
ext2 to ext 3: Ext3 from what I understand is just adds journaling and does its own repairs/checks. Stops you from waiting around while ext2 fixes itself if something bad happens.
I am sure someone can correct me if I am wrong on any of this.
Hello, I would like to know what steps that I can take to increase the performance of android on my vogue. I am using myn's warm donut rom, with the system installed on the nand and the data installed on my ext2 partition on my sd card. I have heard that Its a good ideal to enable swapping, but I do not know how to enable it. I already have my 8GB class 6 sd card partitioned with one fat partition, one 256MB ext2 partition, and one 1GB ext2 partition (for Data). If anyone has any suggestions or tips, please let me know. Thanks!
PS: is there a way to overclock my vogue while using android? I have tried using the clock.sh file from mssmison's legendary build, but that didn't work.
EDIT: Can i use an ext3 or ext4 instead of ext2 for the partitions on the sd card?
Soon there will be an app for overclocking. Myn is currently working on it.
Other that that, make sure you're always on the latest nbh and Myn release.
Get yourself a task manager and be mindful of what processes you actually need.
Use clearcache often.
go into dev tools/development settings and set the window and transition animation to OFF. i noticed that not only does everything open super quick but it did increase the overal performance
you can't use ext3 or 4 no. First thing is to make sure if you are running data on your sdcard that you are using a fast sd card (not a cheap one).
That's what is giving you the biggest performance hit right now.
There is an OC app coming but to be honest it really should be running quite snappy for you.
Thanks guys for all of the info. I have just one more question. should I enable swapping on my android? Advanced task manager usually reports that I have around 46-40MB of free ram.
If you have a lot of free memory already, there is no reason to use swap.
Ok, I have one last question (I apologize if I'm being a bit annoying). I tried installing and using Adfree on my vogue, but when I run it, it says "Cannot locate the 'cat' util on your system". Does anyone know how I can fix this? also, when my phone is connected to my charger, my phone's 3g speeds are really good, but when It's not on the charger, the 3g slows down. Normally I'm ok with it, but it may make playing some games online a bit more difficult when off the charger. Is there some way I can fix this? Thanks!

----- Announcements -----
The poll is now being treated as closed. As such, since I would be unlikely to look back after moving to a newer Ubuntu, and since the two efforts are effectively incompatible (unless I wanted to try my hand at flashing a new /osh which... no), I'm concluding that there are enough users who are happy enough staying on Ubuntu 9.04 that I'll work on the union filesystem first before moving on to newer versions of Ubuntu.
----- Your regularly scheduled post below. -----
I believe I'm getting close to having a reasonable "first pass" of having a working Ubuntu on the Atrix. The interesting question becomes: what next? There are two steps I can see right now:
Get a FUSE kernel module working so that we can get a union mount for our modified Linux so that we can have more effective space. Note: this process is almost guaranteed not to work with the next option.
Now that source code is available for the Ubuntu files (I need to find out if we have everything we need, mind you), port newer releases of Ubuntu (starting with either 9.10 or 10.04).
Users, what would you like to see? The numbers at "closing" were 48/47/3.
i think it would be cool to see a 10.04 ubuntu - but what can be done with that without very much effective space? if you could find a way to expand the storage with an ubuntu port (even if it's after you port ubuntu, then find a way to increase storage) i think that makes more sense than trying to improve the inherently crippled current webtop setup
It would be great to see more storage! That is the biggest limitation at this point..
im all for 10.04 or 10.10
Wouldn't you require more space for this though?

Not really. Remember that the 1 GB filesystem file is a copy of the partition that Motorola ships. Upgrading would be swapping out Ubuntu 9.04 packages for Ubuntu x.yy packages, so it would be a matter of trading space, not strictly losing it.

Forgive my stupidity but... you are reffering to the 1gb file called Ubuntu.disk right?
Meaning, I can move that to SD to leave more space internally?

I'm pointing out that ubuntu.disk is 1 GB, but once it's created, it has no reliance on /osh. So as long as the Ubuntu x.yy installation is < 1 GB like the current 9.04 installation is, the space issue won't get any worse. No better, though.
And, no, moving ubuntu.disk to /mnt/sdcard won't work. If it did, I would have created a partition on the SD card to start with.
NUKE webtop and make it run ubuntu Pure ubuntu with the option to show it on the atrix screen too HEHE !
union mount! Also I bet this has non-ubuntu implications (internal and sd card as 1 mount point would be hot). Also why do we need a newer version other than to say "i have ubuntu x now which version number is greater than y was". What features are there in 10 over 9?

You're asking somebody who's typing this from IE9, so I can't help you there. But, interest seems high, and it is true that newer software isn't available as easily for older versions of the operating system.
Would it be possible to move it to SD card if there was an ext2 partition there? For example, on my 16gb SD card, have a 14gb fat32 partition, then a 2gb ext2 partition, with your mod mounting the latter instead of a file on /data.
I started playing with this idea yesterday, but ran out of time before I got it to mount properly in Android... Do you think it's feasible?

No, actually, since the initial idea didn't involve use FUSE to be able to do crazy filesystem tricks. I thought /cache was needed, though? If we can find space here and there, it might be possible to decrease the footprint in /data a bit so that people aren't squeezed so tightly on space.

/cache is only used for temp downloads (market apk installs, email attachment previews, etc) and OTA updates. The temp downloads don't take up much space - less than 50mb usually, but the OTA updates would probably be a a bit bigger. But who uses those right?
I'm one of those greedy people who have over 1gb of junk on their /data partition
I have my phone unlocked and rooted and have used Big Bear's Iconic rom to flash my phone. This completed fine but part of the process after flashing describes flashinf with data2sd ext3 script. When i tried this I realised my sdcard was formatted fat 32 and not ext3. My desktop machine uses ubuntu linux and I wondered if its possible to format the card via terminal or some piece of software and in what proportions should i partition it to extend my salsa's pitiful internal memory. Also when this is done does the script need to be on a particular partition or just somewhere on the card.
If its easier to configure the card via windows I also have a winxp laptop that could do the job.
Any help greatly appreciated.

yeah it would be easier via windows, i still not found software on Ubuntu to do the partitions lol.
just copy the data2sd-ext3.zip onto your sd card that's all and flash from there. you only need a small 1gb partition max on the sd cad the rest in fat32.
Cool will give that a try tomorrow and let you know how it goes
Worked a charm thanks I do have a couple of question though if i may. Although working with no probs the script mentions preparing the partition with ext2 (I used ext3) and an app called busybox to be installed into system/xbin. What does this app do and is it needed.
Also is this script tailored to the salsa or can it be used on other android devices to achieve more internal memory?. My Desire has the same issue you see.
Thanks in advance for all the help
Yes busybox is requiredlol, otherwise it wouldn't work. We never changed the txt over from ext2 but its still the same and works on both anyway. As for desire....I have no idea, this was based on wildfire s/salsa only, try it out see what happens lol
Busybox is part of the superuser setup without this builtin or added in we wouldn't have root at all. Deleting it would cause issues too.

So given my phone is rooted (thanks to your help a few weeks ago) I take it I must already have this Busybox installed otherwise the script would have failed correct?
I partitioned my test 1 gig sd card into two equal parts one ext3 and one left fat32, the phone reports equal portions on sd card and internal memory via the Settings----> Storage menu. So I'm assuming all is well.
Yeah busybox will already be there lol. That's all fine on the SD, but just be aware, the lower the class SD your using, I assume its a 2gb, you may have a class 4, which will lag. If you experience lag, reduce the ext3 size to 500mb you will see a difference.

A big difference between them.data2SD ext3 is designed for non apps2SD roms ie mine, data2whatever is for apps2SD roms only.if you're having force close issues then you didn't install something correctly. Using these scripts on the wrong Rom could have adverse affects in the Rom.
Each Rom made will have the correct script to use in the listing. If you choose to use them the opposite way round then the developer won't help you correct the problems I'm afraid, all I can suggest is redo the Rom of your choice till it works correctly.
If your having problems with mine, post up in the thread as long as your using the setup I gave and I'll help as much as I can.
For force close issues you can always use fix permissions in Rom manager or in recovery advanced section, this normally stops them.if it dont reinstall them Rom. It tends to be a user error when this happens, I'm using my own Rom and never get force close problems.

Can anybody explain for me the disadvantages of swapping?
Will it reduce my SD crard lifetime?

It will reduce your SD lifetime, since it use part of card as RAM, so it is in use all the time. In the other way u use a swap file or swap partition? (Dont know in wich way Ram expander work). When you use file it use sdcard filesystem. When you use swap partition it will use swap filesystem which is designed to work with writing/reading space all the time so I think its better.
You must have in mind that adding to high size of swap can slow your device down, while system will want to use swap at first. So its not recommended to use swap higher than your real RAM size.

I think this app use a swap file. Can you tell me how can I enable swap partition? and what size do you suggest? Is 256mb good?
And in your opinion how long my SD card lifetiime will last ? (nearly)
In total I think the advantage of swapping is more than the disadvantages of it! Now I don't have any launcher redraws and also music won't be stopped while internet browsing+ a great multitasking that I didn't have ever!

It didn't work for me on two roms mentioned above.
Can u please share ur ram expander settings i mean the swap directory u selected. So i can try once again & go back to kitkat.
Iam using it on stock rom + with too many xposed modules. No lag at all
Talking about the life of sdcard. It will affect it but to a very less extent.
If u use a class 10 memory card u will not encounter any problems.
Iam using this app for more than 5 months on SP and in other phone for over a year.
I still didn't face problem with my sd card.

Thank you for your information.
As I told Im using it on PAC Rom and I have not tested it on other roms.
I selected /mnt/media-rw/sdcard1 as my directory and the value of swappiness and DriverCache are 50 & 8192 for me. ( what these settings means?)
these settings are default and I didnt change them.
Now plz share your setting like swappiness and DriveCache value and perfectKernel checkbox and also swap size. definitely these settings affect on SD card lifetime and help me a lot.
My settings in stock rom swapiness 40, minfree 68mb & drive cache 8192 (can't change this one). All are default values didn't change them
And the most important one SwapDir storage/removable/sdcard1using 513mb swap file.

I've tried this directory in cm11. Cant enable swap option. Now try other path. Maybe one of this will work. Or maybe cm11 Kernel was compiled without enabled swap option? This is second question.

If this is a kernel related problem you can try cm11 for locked bootloader that is based on stock kernel. ( PAC ROM is a stock kernel based ROM too)
I think so. None of apps work for me. When I will find my old sdcard i will check how about swap partition. If that will not work it have to be kernel related. I cant change whole system right now (to check cm for LB) since its my daily use phone and i make some holidays right now. Maybe in two weeks.
