Real Swap ON

Hi , i try to use real swap method for swapon partition on SD with the linux normal method
But i have a problem:
Function not implemented on kernel.
I describe the method:
Partition SD and make a little partition ext2 (100MB or 200MB is fine)
Open Terminal
#su (get root access)
#mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
and then
#swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
With my kernel in the terminal i'm received a message
"Function not implemented."
I think is not implemented on kernel.
Maybe for other roms works fine.
We need to recompile the kernel with Swap support.
Somebody tried this method?
Regards...

bootloader is not bypassed, so we cannot have custom kernels -> we cannot have swap

Module can help.

[Q] How to do filesystem conversion ? with fugumod ?

I was using stock rom with stock kernel ( froyo 2.2 - DDJP4 ). I recently flashed fugumod 2.4 beta 3 standard edition kernel with odin. All gone well , now it is saying fugumod kernel in about phone. Though i kept fs.covert with correct values in /sdcard/android/data/fugumod/ , filesystem conversion did not happen. I tried rebooting phone , but it didn't worked. Please help me to convert filesystems , as i need them to install data2sd. Also i am unable to have CWM recovery , please help me for both issues.

Try G3Mod kernel and then install G3Mod app. You can change filesystems eaisily. And also enable data2sd eaisily.

open a new text file and rename it to "fs.convert" (For eg : file.txt => fs.convert )
Inside that file specify the partition,and along with it the filesystem u want to convert it to :
Eg: stl 7 ext4 stl 6 ext 4
After that place the file in the Android\data\fugumod folder on ur sdcard and then restart

[SPRINT] [CDMA]OC Kernel Swaping with Stock EF-17

I have been experimenting with Kernel swapping tring to find the easiest and safest way without Soft Bricking your Tab. I am on Sprint 7" (SPH-P100) and on Stock EF-17 2.3.4, but this method should work on any (Rooted) CDMA Tab.
First find the CDMA ROM that has the Kernel you want to use, DL the ROM and Extract it to its own folder and go into the folder and find the Zimage. Copy the Zimage and paste on your Desktop. Now DL SGS Kernal Flasher from the Market (FREE) Back up your kernal in the APP. Mount your tab and open to veiw files. If there is a Zimage file in there, Delete it and put your new Zimage (Kernel) in its place and unmount your Tab.
Open SGS Kernel Flasher and hit Choose Kernal, Now goto parent directory and scroll all the way to the bottom and you should see Zimage, press on that then hit FLASH Kernel. Now you have a new OC Kernal without using ODIN or Heimdall!!
Right now I am using Galaxy Cubed 3 ROM's Kernel 1.6GHz on stock EF-17. I have found that I am Stable @ 1.4 GHz. On performance using SetCpu I am running 2350 Quadrants More than double the speed of the stock Kernel without VooDoo, or EXT4!! I have also Flashed Initial Contact kernel @ 1.2GHz.
I have done this on my Sprint Tab and it has worked Flawlessly.
Please do so @ your own Risk, as I am not responsible for your Tab. With that being said Happy Easy Kernel Flashing To ALL CDMA Folks.

[Q] How to upgrade my Tytung R13 to Dorimanx 4.1?

Hello,
Can someone tell if it's wise to upgrade my Tytung R13 Kernel to R14 or Dorimanx kernel?
I like to have a better battery life.
How do I have to upgrade to a "better" Kernel without losing all my apps and settings?
Hope someone can provide me some answers.
Greetings Matthieu.

Put the Dorimax kernel zip file in the root of your SD.
switch your phone off
switch it on again holding down the power button until the menu comes up
select install zip from SD
navigate to the Dorimax zip and install that.
then reboot your phone!
(if you're using NAND Android!)

I use r14 with Tytung's Gingerbread ROM. Tried several earlier versions of Dorimax's kernel and had terrible luck with them. Lost app linkages mainly and Titanium Backup even though I was using the correct zip file created by a forum user on Tytung's thread. Going to the hidden phone menu I switched my phone to use GSM only and this reduced the battery drain from WCDMA preferred which is the default.

What ROM do you use? The original Tytung kernel thread and included file is for Tytung's ROM. For compatibility, somebody has suggested to replace the initrd.gz file with the one in your ROM before flashing.
You can try Tytung 14. It is good and stable. If you like to do some adventure and something exciting but a little dangerous, try Dorimanx. Dorimanx is a crazy developer. The speed of kernel and ROM updates is high. I will recommend to try Dorimanx kernel v3.3 and 4.1. Both of them work on my Typhoon ROM.

Hello,
Thanks for the answers. I use the NexusHD2 Gingerbread V3.2a rom with Tytungs R13 kernel.
I read something about the initrd.gz file. Do I have to do something with that file before upgrading to Tytungs R14 or is there a complete zipfile and can I install it just as mentioned in the second post without losing anything? Is the batterylife better with R14 or Dorimanx 4.1 instead of R13?
I am just a beginner and want to extend the usage of my HD2.
Thanks.
Greetings Matthieu.

Go to the kernel thread by Tytung http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1258110. The kernel is just all you need.
The ROM you use is his work, too. Nothing have to be changed before flashing. Just do it. Have fun.
I am not sure if battery life if better in R14. You can try it. Flashing the kernel you will not lose anything. If you want to do some cleansing work, just wipe cache, Dalvik cache (in advanced setting), and fix permission. Do not wipe system/factory reset.

Thanks!! I hit the thanksbutton for you...

Is it also possible to just put a dorimanx 4.1 zipfile on my sd card and install it without doing extra actions (like installing extra files)? I am a noob with this so....
Greetings Matthieu.

Yes, in Dorimanx v4.1 the initrd.gz files from CM/MIUI/ICS are incl. in the kernel. While flashing you can choose your system. Though the file you are looking for, initrd.gz, is located in your ROM's .ZIP. just open it en you will find the file under /boot, extract initrd.gz en extract the Dorimanx .ZIP and place initrd.gz in the initrd-custom directrory. Last but not least you need to select all the exctracted files from the Dorimanx .zip (incl the initrd-custom folder with your custom initrd.gz) and make a new .ZIP!
Correct me if i'm wrong!? =P

can I flash Dorimanx kernal to sense roms?

[Q] Nfs, Cifs, module kernel for 4.4.2?

Hello,
I'm looking for these modules nfs, and cifs.
I'm in stock 4.4.2 (KOT49H) factory rooted. I want to mount my nas synology in /sdcard/synology
As i see, i'm unable to find any answer about cifs and nfs module for Nexus 4. Some of you have create a custom kernel that include these modules.
I'm familiar with "everytime flash", everytime flashin recovery to the last TWRP or CWM, baseband, etc.....
So How i can't find these module in any rom or kernel that i've tested? what is so hard? no one think about this?
My question is : Is that possible to "put" these module and use them in 4.4.2?
Forum search just lead me to one post about it,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2021437
Just one kernel, only one and it's for 4.2.2. Sadly i try it and nothing change : insmod cifs.ko / nfs.ko --> can't open......
Help, i just want to mount my nas, (sure i already setup my Nas to have a nfs directory for my nexus)
even my try with mount manager failed.
Need help

Also looking for a CIFS (or NFS) module on a 4.2.2 rom.

I believe that ak kernel in original development has it
