just want to divide between user ... stock rom /custom rom.. if people dont need this thread. i will close it down.  smile.gif

No, don't close it down as many are using cyanogenmod now. Yes it's good to separate stock and custom rom so there won't be confusion and
people will know where to get assistance correctly.

You have my support, Curioso. thumbup.gif

for hotfix-1, we cannot use S2E anymore rite...its better u write it on..

if i want to installed htfix 1, i need to transfer all apps to internl memory rite? its written there to format /sd-ext.... how?
*
Use CWM to partition. When you use CWM to partition, it'll will also format your sdcard, so be sure to back up your stuffs first. CWM will let you choose the size of the partition (that is the EXT4) and Swap - choose 0 (Zero). Better don't use swap.

just to double check as im still in cm1.1..

Disable mad2sd OR Remove app if its fail
Reboot AND install 1)cwm 2)cm1.2+hf1 3)gapps
Reboot
Install L2SD and manually link app

any missing step??
*
1) Disable mad2sd. If your internal memory is not enough, the system will abort the disabling. Then use titanium back up to back them up and remove the apps.

2) If you want clean, recommended to use CWM repartition your sdcard. No need partition swap - select zero in CWM for swap.
If not, then it's okay as you are using 1.1

3) Reboot and install 1) cwm v.0.5. Reboot.

4) Install Link2sd first.

5) Install CM1.2 + hf1 + gapps.

6) Reboot and manually link apps.

6) Done.

No need to do data wipe if your current version 1.1 does not give you any problems. If you want to do data wipe, do it when you install
CWM v.0.5 (before you install CM v.1.2)



Added on September 1, 2011, 12:07 amCurioso, like Slaughterer mentioned, it's better you remove the S2E thing in the spoiler. If not those who are new to CM, will follow according to the spoiler's notes and install the S2E and will get problems.

Thanks.

btw, how's your Raya Holidays? Hope you're enjoying. smile.gif

hey ..is tat a way to increase the cache size in cm?? coz certain apps is larger than 20 mb so unable to download..
*
Run this script in the terminal emulator or adb to fix this issue :

# su
# cd /cache
# mv download download.old
# mkdir -p /sdcard/cache/download
# ln -s /sdcard/cache/download download

reboot.

Note : It works for me. Plz give feedback whether it works for you.

If you're using older versions (v.0.4 and before) of CWM, then only update.

Thanx for the link...but its not really helpful...it just stated what also written in the cyanogenmod settings...

What setting do u all used??
bcause i read at madteam forum...someone adviced like this:
"Go to Settings>CyanogenMod Setting>Performance.
Disable Swap first, if you are using.
1. Set Compcache RAM Usage to 18%
2. Disable "JIT"
3. Disable "Enable surface dithering"
4. Set VM heap size to 24m
5. Reboot. Observe changes wink.gif

This reduces lag."

#i used Go Launcher Ex before...very nice, but quite heavy n slow... ^^
*
My settings :

1) Clockspeed : Min 245MHz , Max 729MHz
2) Compcache : 18% default
3) JIT / Surface Dithering : Enabled
4) VM heap size : 32m

The settings you mentioned can also be used. Actually these settings varies for each phone due to the apps installed. For e.g., when I'm not playing games or using Skype I use 602MHz as my max clockspeed. Like enabling surface dithering will give better image quality but there may be lags, and so forth.

Yes, you're right. Go Launcher Ex is quite heavy. I have 4 Launchers installed and use them alternatively - ADW (the system launcher, but I seldom use), Go Launcher Ex , Launcher Pro Plus and Zeam.

S2E has some bugs compatibility with CWM and CM. Don't use it. Instead use Link2SD. Read a few post back.

ok, long story short there were some things i didnt like about cynogen and my friend suggest that i get the official 2.2 - i tried to change my thing based on this website:

http://igyaan.in/2011/01/diy-how-to-instal...msung-galaxy-5/

i managed to do it all, but it wont start up - it just reaches to the "samsung" word and won't move forward. i don't knw what i did wrong...i even tried to get back the 2.1 however same story, won't move past the "android" word.
please help...if u know how.

You have to flash to downgrade.tar first if you're using CyanogenMod and want to revert back to Stock Roms.

Files required :

1) Downgrade .tar (Europe Froyo) Link : http://www.multiupload.com/OW3LQG8PZB
2) Malaysia Official Froyo Link : http://www.mediafire.com/?si659w0w9d9pt40 (password : malaysia)

Procedures :

1) Download the above Europe Froyo which is in German Language (don't worry about this).
b) Make sure you remove your SIM card. Flashing doesn't concern the SIM card but it would consume your credits unless you have monthly data package with your phone service provider.
c) Flash it with Odin.
d) After completed flashing, and reboot, don't set anything as it's in German (unless you know German).
e) Switch off Odin and also your phone.

2) Open back Odin and flash the 2nd File, i.e. Malaysia Official Froyo.

Done!

NOTE : After you have flashed the downgrade .tar, you can flash to any roms you want.

What baseband are you using? I'm using JP6 and wifi and GPS is working very good for me. Even when I'm on the 2nd Flr with wifi router groundfloor, I can get good wifi reception.

Did you try testing with other wifi....like your office, coffee shops...? If it's ok with other wifi, then could be your own wifi router problem. Try to do some testing....like resetting your router.

Hi alex.. i'm currently still using CM7.1 V1.2.. BUT.. WITHOUT hotfix.. Still using S2E coz didn't flash to hotfix.. If I want to flash hotfix, what are the correct steps?? Just uninstall S2E & replace with link2sd? Do i need to repartition my sd card???
*
1) Disable mad2sd first. If you have lots of apps and your phone's internal memory is not enough, the system will abort the disabling. Then you have to either remove some of the apps are move them somewhere.

2) Uninstall S2E.

3) Flash hotfix1.

4) Install Link2sd.

5) Move back your apps to Link2sd.

No need to re-partition again your sdcard if you have already partitioned it before.

1) If you have not used/installed CWM before, you need to download the [CWM Ver. 4.0.1.5] v0.5 tar file and flash it with odin.
http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(d...cret-projectgt/

2) Then download the three files - CM v.1.2 , hotfix1 and gapps and copy them to the root of your sdcard.

3) Install the three files with CWM.

To flash version  1.2, we need to disable mad2sd first... I've disable mad2sd when in version 1.1... Now I'm already on version 1.2... Just without hotfix n still using S2E.. Need to disable mad2sd again?? I've tried to disable.. (Open Terminal Emulator/type su/type mad2sd off)but no respond.. Or just proceed to 2nd step onward?

Since you've disabled it, no need to disable again. Yes just proceed to 2nd step.

You only install CWM with odin. The other files, i.e. CM v.1.2 , hotfix1 and gapps should be install with CWM.

During the flashing of CWM (with odin), CWM will boot up and select reboot. The phone will reboot. Wait for odin to complete then only remove the cable.
