How-To

1. Download both scripts
2. Remove the .txt extensions from them
3. Copy it to your /system/etc/init.d/ directory using Root Explorer/File Expert
4. Change the file permissions to 755/(rwxr-xr-x) More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_sy...bolic_notation
5. Restart your phone
6. PROFIT!


how to do the 4th step? biggrin.gif

If you're using File Expert, long click on the file, File Operations > File Permissions.

thanks.. done doing those 4 step.. anymore?
how to know if this applied? biggrin.gif

You can check a few files that are changed in the script. E.g.

/proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure

Just do a:

CODE

su
cat /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure


The value should be 20. Some other ones like /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio should be 55 and so on. Look at the scripts. See what it's doing smile.gif

guys, wanna ask abt miui rom.

i DL the MIUI rom from miui.com, is it automatically runs on ext4 or i need to enable lagfix myself?

i flash TalonMTD 0.0.3, and sometimes when i charge my phone overnite, morning i wake up, i saw my phone with the back, n menu button lights up, then the phone just "dead", i'll need to take out batt to reboot it...
*
MIUI is using YAFFS by default right? Don't think you need lagfix as MIUI/CM7 is already fast out of the box.

Gosh, I'm still trying to update from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5. (Heard that 2.3.5 is better (battery issue) than 2.3.3) cry.gif
After reading "everything". I have few question. Hope you can help me with it.

1. If I use "Odin" to update, do I need to uninstall "Kies"?
2. I did not root my phone, I still prefer Stock ROM.
    What should I do to make sure I don't lost all my data?
    I mean all the Contacts, SMS, settings and etc.
3. Can I still keep all my apps?

Thanks!! notworthy.gif

1. Don't need to, but you can't use Kies to update to the next version anymore unless you flash back to the latest Malaysia stock - DXJV9. Odin is easier to upgrade anyways and I ditched Kies a long long time ago.
2. Titanium Backup. To do that, you'll need root tongue.gif Root is useful, why not root?
3. Titanium Backup.

Pikachi01,
Thank you for your reply.
I think I don't go for Root, I'm not as smart as you guy here. I did try to read the 1st page and there are things that I still can't understand.  blush.gif
Anyway, I think I just use a Stock ROM. All I wan is to get rid of the Battery Issue only.
Any other way to backup without Rooting? blush.gif

Oops, forgot to reply about this. Probably due to sleep death. Are you OCing/UVing? Maybe you're doing that too aggressively. Do you have any scripts in your init.d?

Sleep of death can be caused by a lot of things. Among other things are:

- Misbehaving apps (XDA app once did that to me)
- Aggressive OC/UV
- Scripts

The kernel cannot cause it by itself, unless the MIUI is running one of the CM7 nightlies that is incompatible. Check this thread:

ken and pikachu,

before i flash talon and apply pikachu's modded zach script, should i delete all the scripts in my init.d folders?

i am using simplicity 0.4 (and kernel semaphore 1.6v that comes with it). currently there are 3 scripts:
- 01acidext4tweak
- 99suoercharger
- enable_netfilter

should i?

thanks brah
*
Delete supercharger (because Talon has its own LMK method to set it) and delete acidext4tweak. It promotes unsafe mounts.

Been thinking to change kernel since speedmod seems like stop updating his kernel on our SGS. I do notice lots of people using Talon compare to the rest. Any advice on why Talon?

Lots of upstream fixes from AOSP and Linux integrated into the kernel. ZRAM/Swap and OndemandX governor.

Very sad to see that the new Simplicity is ridden with bugs sad.gif

The very first Simplicity was really simple and bug free, now it should be renamed to Complexity. :S

Yeah, takes more effort to remove stuff to get it running than to add stuff to a stock ROM :/

Talon comes with a bit of an aggressive LMK setting without tweaking. You can tweak according to my settings in my sig in the Android Optimization thread. It's smooth after that smile.gif

Try installing the official swype from beta.swype.com. You have to remove swype first in order to install it (by removing Swype.apk and libSwype.apk in /data/app and /lib respectively.

Something weird happen today. Charged my phone via USB yesterday with wifi on *downloading some data files some game* morning time wake up with Battery 100% charged icon on left side and 5% left on battery shocking.gif
*
Your phone didn't sleep for the whole night downloading the game. It's normal. Talon modded the battery indicator to show you the real battery indicator rather than the fake one which shows 100% when you are plugged and 5% after you're unplugged,.

sweat.gif gave me a fright that i might need a new phone later today. So it's normal for Talon kernel? But why does the 100% battery indicator is there even it's not charging/not full?
*
Talon tried to fix the battery drain at night by doing a two-step feature:
1. Fix the battery indicator so that it displays the actual battery rather than lying to the user, then when you unplug, you get a bad battery drain
2. Make the charger recharge your phone after battery drops to a certain percentage.

No 2 is still not implemented yet, probably in the future. Your phone was awake the whole night (probably using high frequency with Wifi but no display). It'll probably eat a lot of battery that way. It's the equivalent of tethering. You can use the screenstate scaling script to use the Conservative governor to reduce the battery drain, though if you are doing something with your phone, battery will drain no matter if its unplugged from the charger or plugged until the battery is full.

yup.. and oledi check inside SU apps, terminal emulator was in list.. smile.gif
after reboot phone also.. same thing..
"free : not found"

might got some script that i dont have?
*
free is a binary file in system/xbin. Check for that file. If you don't have that file, you probably have a bad flash. Try flashing through CWM. You're using Talon right? SGS Kernel Flasher sometimes don't work well.


QUOTE(RisK.yO @ Sep 22 2011, 02:39 PM)
Thanks but i can't find the files in the mentioned directory cry.gif
*
If you can't find it, that means its not installed. Try installing from beta.swype.com and see if it works?

QUOTE(Lacus @ Sep 22 2011, 03:39 PM)
Charged using the adapter (leaving it to charge without doing anything). Still the same. Charging stops once the battery 100% icon appears but battery is around 97% hmm.gif
*
97% is your real battery indicator (probably from battery wear and tear). You can bump charge it to 100% i.e. remove and plug again. You'll get 100%, but it's not good for your battery and Samsung limits this to protect your battery i.e. to prevent overcharge.

I dun get why the new market in every rom i tried have this problem of insufficient space on device whenever i try to update or install a game larger than 20mb.
i dun wanna always go recovery and wipe dalvik and cache everytime i got a new update...
Any ideas how to solve this? I was previously on old market..but after installing talon it automatically changed my market to the new one -.-
*
Everyone in Malaysia is getting the new update. It's not because of Talon. Other Android ROMs out there are already using the new market. To revert to the old Market, just freeze the Market Updater using System Tuner or Titanium Backup Pro after you uninstalled the new market (Do an "uninstall updates" on your Market app in Settings > Applications > Applications > Market)

You can try:
CODE

umount /cache
mkdir /sdcard/cache
mount /sdcard/cache /cache


Not sure if it's the right syntax, but it should work.

Hmm, your case is weird. However, even without the "free" command, sync, drop_caches should still work. Just that your ROM/kernel configuration might have some other deficiencies that you don't know about. A reinstall from stock is the best choice you have now.

QUOTE(azamunekurone @ Sep 23 2011, 08:55 AM)
i had uninstall the updates for market,but i still found out that my market are not the old one.maybe bcoz of my Dynamic rom with semaphore kernel (kernel dont have anything to do with market..LOL) i was using right now...

nevermind that,coz i dont enter android market always.sometimes only..but seriously, if i had the chance to change it,of coz i will try!!

You can try the app OldMarket. It restores the 2.3.6 market and can interchange between them.
