my sdcard is 8GB. I partitioned my ext4 with 1.3GB. no swap. with mad2sd, I got 1.24GB for memory to store apps.

owh oke2...thanx... what difference if using swap and not?

Linux divides its physical RAM (random access memory) into chucks of memory called pages. Swapping is the process whereby a page of memory is copied to the preconfigured space on the hard disk, called swap space, to free up that page of memory. The combined sizes of the physical memory and the swap space is the amount of virtual memory available.

You can read all about swap here : http://www.linux.com/news/software/applica...inux-swap-space

Some says Swap can improve performance., numerous Linux users do report success running a swapless system. read here : http://kerneltrap.org/node/3202

Since Cyanogen rom is running mad2sd and it's smooth and fast, swap is not really necessary and it is optional. Therefore I opt not to have it.

ok i get it...i know lil bit about it...>.<
that y i ask u.... there any diffrent if im not using swap or i use it... since u say that cyanogen rom fast enough without swap... i think will not use swap...

i've used swap before, but i find it a little lag. so i deleted it and there's no more lags.

i'm not sure about that 2.2.1 update here. anyone ?

i had create partition but at terminal emu i type mad2sd on it say cannot mount.... how to mount it?

did u create it as ext4? and it must be primary.

in terminator emu , u type "su" and allow it. then type "mad2sd on" and reboot your phone to enable it.

yup it ext4 n primary..
in terminal emu yest i use su then mad2sd on...
it cannot mount...

try this : format your ext4 partition. and try to enable mad2sd again.

i had try 3x... del all partition then create back...format only ext4...del ext4 then create it back...still cannot... only 1 solution i didnt try....flash back the rom..i will try when i back home... hope i can mount it...
i had try link2sd...the script cannot be created...idk why...mybe my rom is the problem...

Myb no luck haha.. penang also my hometown hoho..

D easier way/guide to flash stable ver of cynogen??

Plan to do it tmrw :-D

Guide :

1) a) Download Malaysia's official froyo rom as you'll need the baseband (I5503DXJP6) to work for GPS. The recommended basebands (European - I5500XWJP4 and America - I5500LUYJPE) by Madteam doesn't work for me for my GPS ; and so is the UK baseband (I5500LUYJP2).

b) Download Link (Malaysia official froyo rom) :

i) http://www.mediafire.com/?si659w0w9d9pt40

ii) password : malaysia

b) Flash this rom (but it'll be the official Malaysia froyo 2.2). We need its baseband and it won't change when later you flash to any of MadTeam's Roms.

c) Do data wipe/factory reset.

2) Download :

a) Cyanogen 7.1 v0.4 ( Link : http://www.multiupload.com/TTII20MLER )

and

b) hotfix4 ( Link : http://www.multiupload.com/0D6YNQ797C )

c) Read about this rom here : (scroll down to the second post)

http://www.madteam.co/forum/index.php?/top...7-galaxy5-port/

d) Flash the rom v0.4
i) do data wipe/factory reset
ii) switch off your phone and close odin and disconnect your usb cable.

d) Immediately flash the hotfix4

i) Use the phone's terminal emulator and type "su" and allow it.

ii) type "mad2sd on" and switch off and the switch on again your phone to enable mad2sd. (for this you need to have partitioned your sdcard as ext4 , primary)

Done! Enjoy.

p/s : this cyanogen 7.1 is fast and smooth. most of stock froyo apps are working except radio. gps locks fast and working great.

Added on June 17, 2011, 8:45 pmhi aeroz_corp,

try this : from - http://www.madteam.co/forum/index.php?/top...7-galaxy5-port/ (scroll down to the 2nd post and you'll see this)

CHOOSE ONLY ONE METHOD, AS THEY DO THE SAME THING.
Method A (easy, requires two reboots):

Run "mad2sd off", reboot, and then run "mad2sd on" and reboot again. In other words, toggle your app2sd off and back on again.


Method B (advanced, requires no reboot):

While the phone is running normally, enter the following lines into an ADB shell:

adb shell
stop
mkdir /mnt/stl13/data
mv /data/data /mnt/stl13/data/
ln -s /mnt/stl13/data/data /data/
start


Note: you should not see any errors from these commands. When you enter the first command (stop), the phone will "freeze". When you've entered the last command (start), the framework will restart itself after about 10 seconds (you'll see the boot logo, and the phone will be running normally again).

glad that you've managed to solve the problem..

thanks...^^

is it true camera in cm7 only available in low resolution (VGA)?

hello guys, thanks for the compliment. just share the knowledge.
alexsync is more help i think.

CM7 user, did you read latest subpyske comment?

new kernel promising a lot of enhancement. gonna be big revolution i think. seem like our G5 will not aging. subpyske said it will be improve time to time..

another reason to stick with cm7..

Alexysc: done sum reading but still got Q 4u.. currently using dashblack 2.3 n do i need 2 down grade 2 official froyo?? Then flash cm7.1+0.4 hotfix?? Let say subpskye done with his secret then do i need 2 start over o flash hotfix only??
U guys noe better rite :-D

if you want to use malaysia official froyo baseband, u need to downgrade to official. then flash cm7.1+0.4 hotfix.
em about his secret, after he released it, you just need to flash cyanogen only. dont need to do previous step.

up up

btw anyone try USB on the Go?
