The swap partition has nothing to do with the apps2ext partition, the latter simply uses a chunk of the memory card space to store apps rather than using internal memory, which is fine as these apps are not going to be constantly accessed and moved to and from RAM (unlike swap).

I never implied that the swap partition had anything to do with the apps2ext partition.

Yes you did, you even said apps2sd in your post. It deosnt change anything either way, swap is slow and uneccessary in this day and age.

No I noted "in the use of Apps2SD" knowing that it has nothing to do with the apps2ext partition. There may have been a misunderstanding there. It is that the GUI front end of apps2SD allows you to see, hence the screenshot, the control over the "Swappiness" aspect that has been applied when setting up the swap partition.

I am not sure of its value of relevance and even though it has been asked in the original thread...

...I have not noted Elitemovil's response on it either.

But if set and then the ROM installed it is by default activated with a Swappiness value of 50

I see, but I still don't understand the relevance of needing a swap at all in the ROM, that has been my point since the start.

[dibbles]

I understand

Also I agree with you as I too am not sure about the need for it, but I do see that it is being used. How much, or if at all, it has an effect I just do not know.

Still I really do like the ROM and have found absolutely no issues with it. The config of Apps2SD is useful as it leaves so much space in the internal data partition, although that could apply to any ROM.

DarkTremors Apps2sd is the best and first app to use the sd-ext for system memory......and the Gui makes it even nicer...its as stabile as a brick sh*t house...

I keep getting problems with link2sd, its not "low level" like Apps2sd...Id rather just use the app2sd funtion built in all android roms without sd-ext and link2sd..

Using this ROM has been my introduction to the DarkTremors Apps2sd and it is indeed superb. It does the job and does it well. As long as the ROM supports it I would prefer to use it now. Then again I see little reason to change from this ROM as it does everything I need.

bumpy bumpy for a well made ROM - we really should have a ROM section.!

I agree with you, else you are loosing the ROM topics amongst the other. It should be similar as with Blade, ROM section, Themes section and general one

Agreed,but who do we speak with to make it happen?

[dibbles]

I believe that Frankish had already contacted Paul about making a subsection here. I'm not sure how well that is progressing but I do think that it is important, in the meantime, to try and ensure that all the ROM's are kept to the first page.

Elitemovil, i modified your rom and injected toggle 2g by themasterbaron http://forum.xda-dev...ad.php?t=739530 . This app sets the phone to 2g whilst in standby mode or when connected to wifi. It drastically change my battery use. Would you consider adding it directly into the next rom version?

Actually, you should have followed those instructions before you built your homescreens and layout.
