[Q] Increase RAM use SWAP partition - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

[Q] The easiest way to 2.3.6 + ROOT + any good A2SD

Hi together,
with all the current ICS-roms the nearly factory-image-like roms are hiding behind the curtain and I didnt keep following the developments.
My question:
Is there any good nearly-stock-rom with root and any good a2sd solution?
Propably I only have to do a few steps for this, but I even can find a 2.3.6 stock image for the Nexus One.
Anybody here who gots the right thread in his favorites? The most important thing is the stock-like image, root is no problem, but about the several A2SD I do not have much knowledge.
Thanks in advance!
i think this rom OXYGEN1 suits ur needs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1214543
its AOSP based. i used it for a month and had no issues
it doesnt come with inbuilt a2sd but does support it. so u can flash any scripts u like

[Q] Reinstalling Stock ROM.

Hey guys, please only answer and keep reading if you are willing to help at a 100% rate. Don't need trolls here, but people who can actually help!
I want to reinstall my Stock ROM. I've been using Stock GB 2.3.5 since start, with Root, then I added CF Root b84 Fix. But its getting kinda laggy(I only have like 7 pages of apps, somewhere about 100+ new installed apps). But they are apps that only run after they are called, not background Apps.
So I was woundering if a clean reinstall would help my phone?
EDIT: Runnning Stock ROM 2.3.5 - Samsung Galaxy Ace.
Or should I update to a new version of GB?
------------
If I need to update to a newer stock ROM, how do I do it?
------------
If I don't need, how do I reinstall?
------------
Either ways, what's the best backup I could do in such a case? Use Titanium and back it all up? But I got a question, If i back it all up and restore it, won't it be impossible to recover everything, since i got Link2SD and memory is big because of that? If I put everything back it will say too small size. How will I arrange with that?
Thanks whoever answer all my questions!

Ive flashed CM7 on several devices and its the best way to go for GB! :good:
flash with cm7 with cwm 5X and then again through odin flash 2.3.6 stock rom. it runs well i tested it
Noone answered all my questions
Also, isn't CM7 more RAM eating and more battery draining? That's what people saying..
And again, that doesn't answers my questions ;p I want to remain on stock. Just dunno if I should update to 2.3.6 and HOW do I do it. AKA its on my questions above.

To clear your misconception,Free RAM has nothing to do with your device being laggy(Though reduces multitasking).Unless whole 278 MB ram is being used,no lags.2nd,Free ram is wasted ram.3rd,read sticky.Lots of guides are stickied which tell you how to use ODIN,Root,Flash and all this stuff.4th,yes a clean install of ROM will help.Try stocklite,completely stock.Or i suggest you to flash DDKQ8 but if you are paranoid about RAM consumption,then I should tell you even with no apps installed,200+ MB ram is used in.this firmware.
EDIT:-And trolls,you will only find in OT

OT? xD Whats that.
Well, I know there's guides, but guiding, doesn't explain. I mean, a guide tell you, do this and that, but doesn't explains what your doing, or what is gonna be the result. Like with Link2SD, what gonna happen if I backup? If my phone is laggy, a backup from CWM will keep him laggy too... The lag from what i'm having is when I unlock my phone, the slide to unlock is laggy sometimes, and if you unlock it laggy, the phone will stay laggy for a while. People say its because of deep sleep(made a thread about it), but phones takes some time to go to deep sleep, and this is not the case.
So I have no idea what is DDKQ8, im no programmer or knower about those stuff. What are advantages, or what does DDKQ8 means..

OT is off topic thread.anyways DDKQ8 is baseband version.I recommend you do a factory reset and install the apps fresh.Dont restore data using Titanium backup or CWM.
Newer version of link2SD has relink option, which cross checks apps installed on your SD-ext partition, made for those rom changes. Otherwise, restore backup with titanium and link again.
Also, with 100+ apps lag is normal, if installed on SD card a higher class SD card helps.
To stop the lag when you turn the screen on,
Go to cyanogenmod settings>performance>CPU settings or download setCPU
Then change the minimum frequency to 245

Internal memory

Hi,
I'm going to install new ROM for my Galaxy Mini. Did any of the latest ROMs include build in solution for shortage in internal memory?
If yes - which ROMs? If not what's the best way to resolve the lack of memory issue.
thank you,
Moshe
What kind of latest ROM ? Because there's a hundreds ROM.
There are some roms with built in script to mount. You have to found them on your own read description.
OR
Easy way, make partion of your sdcard use link2sd app available on store and link everything to sd.

Low Internal Memory?
This is what I do, And I'm on 4.0+
- Use DroidSail App2SD Lite and transfer almost all the apps to SD.
- Use Greenify on the apps to normalize battery life.
- Use Sd Speed Increase set to 2048 kB settings. [Everything mentioned applied on boot]
- Use kernel [Badass Kernel] with smartassv2 governor and lower the minimum frequency to 122 MHz.
- And oh, delete most of the bloatware using RootAppDelete.
This makes it real real good and is way better than what I had bought it as.
Hope it helps!

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 ?

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.
