Hey Folks,

Try ADW Ex launcher which I'm using, better than ADW free version and smoother than Go Launcher Ex which is much more heavy than ADW EX.

1)Papago X5 (Map 011210 included, 226.5MB) - http://www.sendspace.com/file/ge2rso

2)Recent Map: MFM-PPG-110103C
Download link 312MB
http://www.multiupload.com/TPFO9D5ZE6

3) Latest Map (given by amedeto8) : http://www.mediafire.com/?q33yldn3dezrxfc

Guide :

1) Extract the downloaded file. Use the .apk to install.
2) Copy the NaviSEA folder to the root of your sdcard. (Root of sdcard means just anyway in your FAT32).
3) For the latest map, extract the map file and replace the map in the NaviSEA folder.

Enjoy my friend.

thanks alex! btw, I am now using compache (18% default) along with "use jit" and "enable surface dithering"

governors Smartassv2 min 245 max 729.

should i change any of that?

and also, any solution to strengthen my wifi? despite the said improvement for v1.4,i still felt my wifi signal is pretty weak. it disconnect often and take time to scan and reconnect back.

Yes, use JIT. As for dithering, if you enabled it, your graphic will be better (but it seems to me not much difference), but it'll slow down your performance.

Hotfix2 test2 is released. Try that. I tested it and it seems to be stronger than hotfix1 and hotfix2 test1.

My max wifi reading (using wifi analyser) :

1) hotfix 2 test 1 : -54 dBm
2) hotfix 1 : -42 dBm
3) hotfix 2 test 2 : -41 dBm

That means hotifix2 test2 has the strongest wifi signals and strength.

EDIT : I use the same governor, but for CPU , 245MHz to 604MHz, except when playing games which lags at this setting, I set my max CPU to 729MHz and reset back to 604MHz after finished playing.

thanks again.
my max wifi signal using hotfix 1 is -62dBm (and that's beside my modem).Since psyke is fixing the wifi issue,i think i will wait for the stable hotfix 3 to be released xD. now already hotfix 2 test 3 smile.gif

Simple2Ext (S2E) Quick Guide:

Please make sure that you use ROM version v1.4 or later, as it includes a patch to prevent S2E's aggressive filesystem tweaks that cause corruption.•[Optional, but highly recommended]. To make absolutely sure that your /sd-ext partition is not corrupt, manually format the /sd-ext partition:

Code:
adb shell mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

or using Terminal Emulator :
#su
#mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

•Install S2E from Market.

•Open S2E, click the Menu key -> Settings. Enable "Mount as ext4" (mandatory). Do not select "Set read buffer", as the default value of 2MB will cause extreme lag on our phone. My port already sets the buffer to a more conservative value of 256KB, which I have found works best.

•Close the app and reboot.

•Open S2E again, select the folders you wish to place on the SD card. I recommend that you don't move the "Download cache" folder, as it makes more sense to leave it in internal storage (/data).

•Changes will take effect on the next reboot. Note: your dalvik cache will be rebuilt, so this reboot will be slower than usual.

NOTE : For those who are currently using Link2sd and want to use S2E, I would recommend :

1) Install the new version v.1.4 first (remember, for new rom versions, you need to install again - v.1.4 , hotfix (if any) and gapps.

2) After installing, using CWM, back it up. (Just in case S2E gives you problem or doesn't work).

3) Unistall Link2sd and follow the procedure/guide as above given by Psyke.

Enjoy!

EDIT : After installing the new rom version, the S97ramscript will have to be re-applied/inserted again.

alex, i plan to use S2E but i am facing some problem and need your help tongue.gif

-I installed the S2E from market but in the mean time i am still using the link 2 sd.
-then i open S2E, click the Menu key -> Settings. Enable "Mount as ext4" (mandatory)
-then i reboot.
-after reboot my device show low disk space.
-then i uninstall the link2sd. and it takes years~~~

how ah?

i got uninstall the link2sd 1st before i start to use S2E but also take years.

no should i fully uninstall the link2sd 1st and then install back S2E?

Still in the process of uninstalling link2sd. sweat.gif

How's your situation now?

It could be the mounting problem.

If you have problems with /sd-ext not mounting (with "Invalid argument"), and formatting /sd-ext in CWM doesn't work, just do a manual format:

Code:

With adb shell -

$ adb shell mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

or

For a manual format open terminal emulator, type
#su
#mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2


This is the bug with CWM (which can seem to be S2E's fault, but it isn't): CWM doesn't (re)format partitions properly under certain circumstances.

If the above doesn't solve,

1) Re-partition your sdcard again.
2) Wipe data/factory reset
3) Re-install the rom package, i.e. v.1.4 + hotfix 1 (or hotfix2 test5 - in the 3rd post, if you want to test) and gapps (preferably the minimum package).
4) Reboot.

1) Uninstall Link2sd.
2) Wipe dalvik cache with CWM.
3) Wipe data.
4) Re-install the rom package again, ie. v.1.4 + hotfix 1 (or hotfix2 test5 - 3rd post, if you want to test) and gapps (preferably the minimum package).
5) Reboot.
6) Download S2E and set the settings as per Psyke's guides.

NOTE : It's advisable to back up your data first before performing the above. For your contacts, you can
back it up :

> contacts > press menu > import/export > export to sd card ---------> your contacts will be backup in a file in the sdard which you can import back later to your phone in the > Import from SD card menu.

Don't worry about that reading in Mini Tool as it gives faulty readings sometimes.

If you have an Ext2 partition, you won't be able to use S2E as it only supports Ext4 partition.

If you want to confirm and see if your partition is Ext4, open root explorer,

go to > /system/etc/mke2fs.conf ------------->

it'll list out your ext3 = {
features = has_journal
}

ext4 = {
features = has_journal .huge_file, blah...blah...blah.....


that is to say, your ext3 is not available as it is empty, but ext4 has contents.... so you have ext4 as partition. tongue.gif

(see the screenshot I enclosed here)

Reboot > Press Volume Up + Off button for approx. 8-10 secs (sometimes takes longer)

Great thread man, this one should be a new version for Galaxy 5, since the old thread has the old stuffs and not up to date. Glad to see our phone has so much support, will bring more custom ROM to our phones...
