now to figure out whats up with setcpu and for you to remove fps limit

But curious why did my adw launcher lost all my settings!??!

[Guest Stephen Hyde]

becasue it'll of copied old settings over to the ext when it didnt work first time

[Guest LorD CLockaN]

Now going for a beer, and a few will comw your way¨!!

edit: after reset,

i lost all my settings again.. do you think I need to do factory reset?? or if I update.zip with 1.5.0 again??

After factory reset or update do I need to appy perf.zip update again??

[Guest Stephen Hyde]

adb info:

dowload the perfmod update and extract it to a folder (ill assume you extracted to perfmod3 for this guide

also assuming you have adb setup and working.

right first lets push the files we need over.

adb push perfmod3/system/xbin/mkfs.ext4 /system/xbin

now you NEED to unmount the sd in android ui (settings >sd unmount) this will still wipe your card so backup first next up load up adb shell and start partitioning

adb shell

cd /system/xbin

busybox chmod -R 755 mkfs.ext4

busybox fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk1[/code]


from now you should be able to follow the guideo n first post

...to take care of various tasks that are hard to do otherwise on my win7...

mmhhh... Let me think.... Sure I have one or two ideas of such things my windows cannot do as BT4 :)

I had the same as a previous poster : made every steps and didn't fount any improvement. I've checked the mount command result as suggested by Steve and didn't found the mmcblk1p2 partition.

Checked the ls-l of /etc/init.d and found the data2ext but only with u+x and g+x permissions. Chmoded it to a+x and after reboot... badaam : found the partition mounted fine.

Thanks Steve, for both 1.5 and these tweaks !

just test in quadrant to confirm, it should be hitting high 1000s or 2000

Adb method is still going to wipe card though, maybe worth pointing that out...

[Guest Stephen Hyde]

[Guest jayjayn1]

indeedy. im properly impressed with this mod,

ok story so far

Ive partitioned my sd card and formatted with 2gig in ext4 the rest FAT32

Do i now add update zip to the root of my card and flash it?

[Guest Stephen Hyde]

yep

[Guest jayjayn1]

yep

:)

[Guest superutp]

Really? Cuz all you need is to download unetbootin and load a live cd onto a flash drive (or an actual cd) and boot linux.

I have a backtrack4 live cd image for use to take care of various tasks that are hard to do otherwise on my win7 laptop.

yup I know tht....I have previously had linux on my laptop...

lol..just am too lazy to do it....so had to say it...

[Guest mrmrmrmr]

guys,

data2ext may be a solution to no texture problem on Gangstar game of Gameloft.

Can anyone with the update try Gangstar ?

[Guest shabicht]

I have 2 microsd cards that I carry around on a regular basis, (one just contains movies and such). I would like to be able to swap them out, but will that cause problems with this modification?

[Guest NoDoze]

two things....

First, I think you can do the linux side partitioning stuff with a Live CD of any distro... You don't need to have a full install...!

Second, What exactly is this doing? Creating a larger swap on the SD card? Why don't OEMs see this and create larger swaps now...?

...oh and thanks DJ for the adb info! Thanks!

its not swap

its moving the /data to a journaled EXT 4 partition, you could in theory set one up on the internal card, but this way is simpler and works
