Hi,
I would like to know how can I install CM10 on my milestone which is currently on CM 7.2.4a and old open recovery which was available before 2nd boot. Should I switch to flash before going to CM10 or can I directly flash CM10 and also I have a 2gb microsd card will it be enough or do I need to go for new one (if new then which one should I buy?)?
Also the link to nightly builds looks to be blocked in this country so any alternate link will be helpful and appreciated.
Thanks
You need before flashing:
1) Wipe everything (cache,dalvik,data (so backup all your information before wiping data))
2) Create an ext partition on your SDCard. (it is necessary, 512MB or more is recommended) Follow THIS guide, if you don't know how to do it. Section 4.
You don't need to update the OR, but it is recommended.
The link to the nightlies in my signature doesn't work for you? If not, i'll upload the latest build to somewhere.

Thanks Erovia for your reply. The link does not work for me can you please upload the latest build and provide me the link. So there is no need to switch back to the stock?
You don't need to go back to stock, just wipe everything.
The link doesn't work for me at the moment, i think the server is down.

Thank you very much Erovia. Appreciate it. Could you please lemme know if going back to CM7 will as easy in case I want to go back as its very much stable.
If you want to go back, just wipe everything and flash the rom. That's all.
Or restore nandroid backup you made before "flashing" cm10
Thanks guys... I need an advice on micro SD card as I'm about to buy a new one. Does milestone support more than 8 gb should I buy 8 or 16 gb and what's the significance of class which class is preferred?
Sent from my Milestone using xda app-developers app
Up to 32GB are supported, the higher the class the better.
I don't know what's the speed limit given by the Milestone's hardware - but I guess Class 10 is sufficient.
I bought this one: Samsung Essential Class 10 microSDHC 32GB
But it gave my phone hiccups, I had to format it with this tool to make it work without problems: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/

Thanks. Could you please lemme know how to move from OR (old) to 2nd boot, Is it just replacing the OR folder and update.zip or should I install vulnerable recovery again?
Just delete the old OpenRecovery folder and update.zip and copy the new ones to you sdcard.
Once you flashed the vulnerable recovery, it is there, you don't have to do with it anything.

I have the same question with you
I've answered that in post #2.
Please, read the whole topic (it's not so big) before asking something that someone asked before.
Something wrong with partitioning
My phone is hung on boot. I think there is something wrong in the sd card partitioning. I used minitool to partition from then on when I try to wipe cache/data/dalvik its giving a msg at the end can't mount... Could you please lemme know whats wrong. I have 16gb card should I first partition to ext2 and then use tunefs to convert is it must?
I used this partition layout for CM10:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note that my card is only 8GB, your fat32 partition should be bigger. I used "parted" from the Recovery console to accomplish this.
Please read these guides on partitioning your sdcard, they explain everything:
http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/ (boot into Recovery, console, then start from step 2)

Now I managed to get into the open recovery and installed but now the question is how do I make sure the ext3 partition which I created is ok is there any way to check from within android?
lbt: I see you have linux-swap partition can you tell me why you created it and how does it help?

Erovia: Can you please tell me whats the use of HWA settings? And what all do I need to disable in order to have better performance. I've managed to install the CM10 on my milestone thanks for your support and loving the look and feel of CM10. Is there anything I can do with the battery its running out pretty quickly.

The Milestone only has 256MB RAM which is full almost all the time (even with Gingerbread), Jellybean requires more RAM to run smooth. Swap is kinda like RAM on your sdcard, since you can't just plug in more RAM into the Milestone. It does not make your phone faster, but provides some "emergency" RAM for when your 256MB are full. It keeps background apps alive when multi tasking, if RAM was full they would be killed.
HWA Settings: You can turn off GPU hardware acceleration for individual apps, this saves RAM but they may look more laggy with animations.

ok so these forums have help me sooo much from rooting my g1 for the first time and upgrading my g1 to the max. But I've comed to a problem on partitioning my g1.
I am currently using cyanogenmod and I use amon ra's recovery 1.5.0 which I have found really easy to use.
So basically I'm trying to get a linux swap of 96mb and I belive a 512mb ext partition but when I do this on amon ra I chect on cosole by first typing su and then free to check my memory and my swap partition says 0? And I'm trying to see what I'm doing wrong?
What I basically do is I:
wipe
Format my sd via computer with swiss knife or bassic format tool
Plug in my card
Wipe again
Wipe ext partion
And then I do the ext/linux/fat32 partition thing
And then I do my flashing.
Am I doing something wrong? Or maybe taking too many steps? Lol
But if anybody could tell me what to do it would be good.
And again I don't mind starting out fresh.
I am going to assume your new...
And I am a bit of a smart a$$ so deal with it. It's also late and I'm hungry, so I'm a triple threat.
1. Welcome to the forums.
2. keep up to date on the programs...RA1.5.0 had a bug in it. It was replaced with RA1.5.1 in less than 8 hours.
Check for daily updates on everything you use.
3. Don't do it by hand...Amon RA 1.5.1 does all this for you. (has since like 1.3.9 I think)
Even walks you through it step be step.
Its under the heading PARTITION SDCARD (Can't miss it on the main screen. It's there on 1.5 too)
Know your Sdcard specs b4 proceeding.
It even upgrades your partitions...don't bother with apps2sd if your not on a class 4 or 6 card.
And yes you do want ext 4 if you have a class 4 or 6 card.
No I won't tell you how to tell the difference. Google will.
4. Not to sound like an a$$...oh wait I already put in that disclaimer...
Seriously are you learning about what your doing or are you following along blindly?
Just following along results in posts like "OMG I just F*ing Bricked my Phone trying that lame a$$ write up. How do I fix my phone!?!?"
Read up on the programs before you use them, and ask questions about how to do something before trying. Please.
Have a nice... ah who am I kidding...see ya!
Ok..
1. Thanks for the welcome
2. You didn't help much but still thanks.
3. I'm not that of a complete dumba$$ and I do try to stay up with the updates and stuff but I go to school full time and I work right after but thanks for the advise...
4. But what I was looking for was how to start out fresh with cyanogen and a partition on my phone because when I try it it doesn't show on console but the size on my sd does decrese.
But again thanks.

Do you have a userinit.sh setup to activate the swap on boot? Otherwise, you can try entering "swapon" in a terminal window and then "free" to see if you now have swap being utilized. Just having the partition does not enable swapping.
If you want to try to re-partition it one last time, I wrote a very simple excel program that walks you through the partitioning. I boot into recovery, and go to console. From there, just type the text exactly as written. There are 2 variables that you will type in, the swap and the actual size of the card. By typing those in, it will update the spreadsheet with the correct values to input. I have formatted quite a few this way and never had a problem that wasn't due to a bad SD card.
Anyway, this is what it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and the download link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/318493809/Partition.xlsx
I guess in my cranky state you missed my point.
There is no reason to do any of the partitioning on another computer, or by hand. Amon Ra's recovery image does that operation with a little interaction from you.
Basically it does what speed.racer's script does, and it's already on your phone.
As for not seeing the partition information...
A fresh partition has nothing on it, so you will get a 0 when looking to see how much data it is storing.
Look again after you have booted up to the home screen.
Does that help?
Well its been like about 2 hours since i did the repartition and im sure that it would of have had taken up mem by now but it says 0 0 0 and
When i do the swap on thin it says to set swap priority?
Note: Please keep this thread restricted to Bionic-specific issues. Atrix (and general) webtop2sd issues should be discussed in this thread instead. Threads for other devices are referenced at the top of the main webtop2sd thread.
Discuss webtop2sd here (the other thread will be kept clean for announcements, FAQs, etc.).
Before you report an issue:
Make sure it's not on the Known Issues list first!.
Basic debugging, since these are going to be questions I ask anyways:
If you hit problems with the Android webtop2sd application, you'll need to tell me the error, and give me the last few lines of adb logcat. Run this adb command, which will filter out most of the unimportant lines:
adb logcat ActivityManager:i AndroidRuntime:i webtop2sd:i *:s
Are you actually booting from your SD card? You can find this out by checking the Diagnostics tab in webtop2sd, under "Currently mounted webtops". If webtop isn't listed, you're not booted from your SD card. If this is the case, report what ROM you're running from.
Don't worry about webtop-configurator on the Droid Bionic for now. The current version won't work, but the next version will.
Note: One of the early updates will involve being able to create a filesystem file in /data so that you don't need an SD card (something that was present in earlier versions of my scripts but ended up being impractical for the Atrix, but is quite practical for the Bionic).
Thanks to tallnerd1985, who made this port possible.
Make some noise people! Looking forward to this! 900M /osh just doesn't cut it
I'm personally stoked for this. have some spare mini sd cards just calling my name to be used.....

Hell, since our phone is so much better than the Atrix as far as storage space goes, we will not need to use our slow sdcards, we can use part of the 8gb of internal memory for the Webuntu partition.
you know, I'm glad you said that. I was hoping we could change that partition. Use up some of that extra space.

Sorry, but somebody else is going to have to figure out how to repartition the internal memory. That's one of those things that I'm not going to touch with a 20-ft pole....
The main reason I don't want to use /mnt/sdcard for a file is that it will then cause some pretty severe problems if you ever try to mount that from a computer (since Android won't be able to unmount /mnt/sdcard, since the filesystem file is still in use). I suppose if you wanted to guarantee that you would never, ever want to get to contents of /mnt/sdcard over USB, maybe, but that's not something I'd want to try to enforce.
so back to the sdcard-ext partition.
out of curiosity, how large are you making the webuntu partition?

that's a loaded question. lol. and like a boss I almost spit my coffee out when I saw that pic.
4 gigs looks fine to me....i see you've got it set to 7790 as the max. thats perfect. Didn't realize your app would allow adjustment of the partition size. forgive me.

Who said 7,790 MB is the max? That was just because it was an 8 GB card I was testing with.
lol. roger that. makes sense that it could be set to the size of whatever card you have.
Would it be possible to install the system partitions to /osh and have /usr and /home on the
Sd card or is that useless with class 10 cards? Not sure about the speed of the internal memory. If it's faster it would be a worthy feature...

afaik, internal memory is going to be a fair amount faster than an SD card. Also, /home is a symlink to /data/home, so it wouldn't end up on the SD card anyways. At that point, /osh/usr is going to be most of /osh, so you might as well just have all of /osh live on the SD card.
Any progress on webtop2sd? I'm completely out of space with the limited amount... Can't wait till this is ready

hey guys im making this thread cus androidboss dint know how to do this and im mkaing it easier for him(might help others too so )
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DEAD SDCRADS PHONES LAPTOPS DESKTOPS AND ANYTHING ELSE
requirements
-windows computer
-phone with swiftdroid or any rom that supports inti.d boot scripts
-recovery 5.0.2.3
1. backup all sdcard stuff to computer.
2. wipe all data from the sdcard. after that use this to remove all partitions from sdcard( if you do not have any other partitions on sdcard skip to the end bellow the last picture)
http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm
the pics will look may look different cus im using a older version
mine looks like this

}
to remove all the other partitions
when all is done click apply at the top lefthand corner. at the end after it refreshes make sure there is only one partition left . the FAT32 partition.
so now the card has no data put it in the phone and boot into recovery(5.0.2.3). there go to advance>partition sdcard>EXT size 2M(2M if you dont want a ext partition but if you want then the size is up to you )>swap size 256m
power down the phone and put back data into the sdcard. now enjoy swap
well this is my first thread so hope it helps!!
hahaha thank you
every much bs828 !!!
You helped me a lot!!!
Thanks a lot mate.
Edit: will use this on my girls gt540.
These typos was sent from my Nexus S [I9023]
custom rom??
I use this method more than 2 or 3 month, thats nothing new. Mur4ik Swiftdroid roms use this method, automatically find&use SD card's swap partition.
Before that, i made a video for my 2.1 Ultimate rom, how to partition SD card under windows to use swap&ext partition. (I use swapper for swap and joe's autoapp2SD in my ROM) Sometimes it not possible because compatibility problems between win&card readers but newer CWM recoveries able to partition cards.
yeah like i said androidboss did not know how to do this so i made this. others may also find is useful so why not make it public ??

Just tried it, works like a charm
Im quite a newbie in this, how exactly does swap and ext porticions work and what do they do ?
the memory card you are using is in a fat32 format so by partition it to let say a ext3 file type you can store apps on it(if im not wrong the phone's memory is also ext3) swap works as addition external ram used to run apps

look in root explorer (or any root file manager), in folder etc/init.d
if there isnt script called 07swapon, the swap wont active. and afaik, mike's ics doesnt have this script. u must add it manually.
Yes take 1 from any rom
How can I open *.img files so I can get the 07swapon file?
Can you give me the download link for swapon file?
I recently was running really low of internal memory on my SGA and decided to root it. That all went fine. I moved some apps which was fine but then I tried to move 3 apps at once and the app froze. One of the apps i was trying to move was google play services. It moved to the sd card but was giving some errors so I moved it back. Also the two other apps disappeared but they are still taking up some internal memory. Basically I am try to get that memory back but don't know where to start. I did reboot the phone and cleared the cache.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am pretty much a noob when it comes to this kind of stuff so keep it simple if possible.
Thanks

Hmm, I assume you are on Stock Android 2.3.x, stock recovery, stock kernel and rooted. Then I will tell you the easiest way to do it for you..
1. Download and install CWM. (Search the thread here if you don't know how)
2. Partiton your SD card size of your choice using CWM. (Search the thread here if you don't know how) (WARNING: IT WILL FORMAT EVERYTHING AND SPLIT THE PARTITION OF YOUR SD CARD)
*Partitioning means it will split the size of your memory card and use as your SGA internal memory.
3. Download and install the Custom Battery Extender Kernel by PSN Mem-MOD (Recommended). Click my SGA signature.
4. Reboot your phone into CWM and install the kernel.
(Suggest you do a wipe/factory reset of your phone after installing the kernel)
See the magic! Your SGA internal memory is now increased.
Note: Do not remove your memory card while your phone is on. Or else it will cause some of your apps in your phone to get corrupted. But you can still use the mass storage mode to connect your phone to your PC.
Is not possible to install the psdna88 kernel patcher on stock kernel. He would need a custom kernel made for stock rom. My suggest is to install CWM, wipe data and cache and begin from 0 without repeating the steps that took you to ask for help here.

It can be installed. My SGA is using stock DXKT7 ROM and on Battery Extender 1.6 memory modded kernel.
I install it using the steps I have just posted.

If you read carefully what I said you can see that I was talking about installing that kernel patcher on a stock kernel. I know that is possible to use in with stock rom. Please don't post useless answers, thank you!

or can u tell me anyother kernel like this for 4.0.4 or 4.2.2 rom
please do reply

I recently was running really low of internal memory on my SGA and decided to root it. That all went fine. I moved some apps which was fine but then I tried to move 3 apps at once and the app froze. One of the apps i was trying to move was google play services. It moved to the sd card but was giving some errors so I moved it back. Also the two other apps disappeared but they are still taking up some internal memory. Basically I am try to get that memory back but don't know where to start. I did reboot the phone and cleared the cache.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am pretty much a noob when it comes to this kind of stuff so keep it simple if possible.
Thanks

Follow these.
1. Root Phone
2. Install CWM Recovery
3. Flash a Compatible Kernel. Preferably Battery Extender 1.2
4. Partition your sd-card.
5. Install Link2sd from Play Store.
After this much is done. Reply. Will give you further process.
Many other ways too.
If you dont understand any above step. Search in XDA or Follow the link to my Blog.

Ok I have been trying to find CWN for my phone. I have a SGA GT-S5830D. I am using koodo in Canada (if that matters) I have been searching the forums and am unsure on which to install as I don't want to brick my phone (Wife wouldn't be impressed)
Would the file that I attached work on my phone?
Thanks for the help

AFAIK GT-s5830D is the same phone as GT-s5830 so you can use whatever mod from GT-s5830
Look at this

Hmm, I assume you are on Stock Android 2.3.x, stock recovery, stock kernel and rooted. Then I will tell you the easiest way to do it for you..
1. Download and install CWM. (Search the thread here if you don't know how)
2. Partiton your SD card size of your choice using CWM. (Search the thread here if you don't know how) (WARNING: IT WILL FORMAT EVERYTHING AND SPLIT THE PARTITION OF YOUR SD CARD)
*Partitioning means it will split the size of your memory card and use as your SGA internal memory.
3. Download and install the Custom Battery Extender Kernel by PSN Mem-MOD (Recommended). Click my SGA signature.
4. Reboot your phone into CWM and install the kernel.
(Suggest you do a wipe/factory reset of your phone after installing the kernel)
See the magic! Your SGA internal memory is now increased.
Note: Do not remove your memory card while your phone is on. Or else it will cause some of your apps in your phone to get corrupted. But you can still use the mass storage mode to connect your phone to your PC.

You can install Link2SD without a custom kernel and without CWM installed. All you need is a Rooted phone and a partitioned sdcard (ext2 for stock ROM)

Do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning
Backup its data first.
P.S. Your phone is on JB right?

Other option, install Universal kernel flasher from the Play store, and some root explorer (like ES file explorer or similar). Unpack zip of kernel and install kernel.bin.md5 with Universal kernel flasher.
BTW I think that you can't flash CoCore zip in stock recovery, you must use Universal kernel flasher.

Universal kernel flasher need root. I can't make root because stock recorvery doesn't see files on my sd.

1. Try with other SD card if you can
2. Do that repartition (I posted you a link) - it was happening to me too, but after fixing SD card it was visible.
Where exacly do you go in stock recovery? You need an external SD card, it can't work with internal.

1. I going to try.
2. My PC does see my sd card.
I chose "install update from external SD card". After chose I see only ".../" or something like this:
".../
*&^*&^&^
*&^*&^44
8798 (. 877
"
The files are on SD card (external)
I think that problem is in the version of JB - android.
compatible with carbonRom?
Hi, im a bit of a newbie with kernels and this might be a stupid question but i hope you guys can help.
I'm currently have CarbonRom KitKat on my phone(here) and i really like it but i would like some other governors now i wondered if i could flash this kernel without any trouble or collisions or something?
sorry for my bad English, i'm from The Netherlands.
Thanks in advance

Well did you do repartitioning? Backup all to PC, repartition and put just root.zip on it.

If that wont work that will mean that u have a virus on your sd (i read about that in PL forum ). U will need to format sd card to delete virus.
