[Q] Swap & franco.kernel - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Why franco removed swap support from his kernel. I've used it for along time but after kernel upgrade was surprised. U8800 has extra space on it's internal SDcard so it is reasonable to use it. I repartitioned it and inserted to init.d "swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p15" - now it doesn't work . Pleas anybody who can post on dev.thread ask hi this question (XDA treats me as new user

Dual booting feature for any modded roms for Elocity A7

Hello folks,
Soon I will purchase an Elocity A7 (after I receive my tax refund).
I was wondering if there will be work on creating dual booting feature for this unit to allow me to create a custom rom based on Gingerbread or Honeycomb whichever is available at the time.
I would like the AOSP Gingerbread or Honeycomb to boot from the sdcard instead of internal storage. That gives me more freedom to update the kernel (via grabbing updates thru WiFi from a local network hosted webserver) with the minor modifications to boost the stability/squash bugs and other things before I can release it to the public for pleasure of using it in everyday use.

Because I can't post yet any links, I'm giving you the forum thread name here that is found on these forums: "[ADV] Boot menu for the Nook Color [2011-02-21]"

OK I got the A7 tablet yesterday and installed the dexter mod 1.3 and I'm having fun with the device. Now I just have to prepare a linux environment to compile the kernel and the modules.
Also have to look in offering dual booting.

Unfortunately I won't be able to compile ICS or JB because my computer is very old and doesn't support 64 bit environment required by the building process be that in Linux or Windows. However I can build the kernel with the 32 bit compilers/tools with no issue, but the ICS or JB doesn't like the 32 bit compilers/tools.
I'm still plagued by OOM freezes and a strange Google Play Services install error that prevents me from installing the latest version of Youtube.
Sorry for letting you down.

[Q] can rc CM101be installed on rooted NC with dualboot cm7/cm9?

I have a rooted NC and dualboot using the guide and resources in Taosaur's excellent "[eMMC][2/22]Dual Boot Guide 2.0: Any Combination[Stock 1.4.1][CM7.1+][CM9]". My question is: Is it possible for me to install the new rc CM7 101 into (and over) the partition currently used by CM9 by using/modifying the instructions in that guide? Or is this available only in a dualboot zip created for this purpose? If so, where can I get it? The expansion of this simple little device's os by these genuises has wonderfully extended its capabilities and I look forward to taking advantage of even more improvements made possibile by these exceptional individuals who so generously share their work with us. Thank you!

(i9500) Increase available user storage space?

Hi guys, I'm new to this i9500 development section as my previous
device was galaxy s1 i9000. The i9000 cm 10 or cm 10 based
roms had 2 different partitions which increased available user
storage.
I understand the i9500 user available space is reduced
significantly due to the way it's partitioned so even if I uninstall
bloatware in the/system partition, the available user space will
hardly be affected since it's in the /data partition.
So I wanted to know if the partition is resized or if it can be
resized in cm11 or sammy based roms so as to increase the user storage
space available.

Yes you can resize the partition. Search the forum on how to do it. My advise is to buy an external microsd card instead. Less hassle, more more more storage.
cheers ~
YES you can for some 3 add Gig
you can, we can, they can and they did it.

but, as suggested in the above (good) reply , i don't do it and I bought and extra 64Gig SD card and live happy....

Sure, I had seen this method but I wanted to know whether there are other methods or roms with different partitions. Anyway, thanks.

Looking for the right (kinda specific) kernel. Grouper, multirom, 5.1

Hi guys.
I've searched around the boards and net for days (cause what's worse than a new member that can't use the search function?) and I'm in need of a specific kernel for my 2012 Grouper.
I'm currently running Multirom with Kali Linux Nethunter (written over Cyanogenmod 12.1) in my primary slot, and CM 12.1 in the secondary.
I'm wondering if there is a kernel out there that will fill the following needs:
5.1 Lollipop (CM12.1, Nethunter 3.0)
Kexec-hardboot
USB fast charging/power external devices (TP-Link wifi adapter)
And if possible, All F2FS (I've found nothing for 5.1 compatibility with F2FS)
If I'm stupid and overlooked something obvious, feel free to call me on it. I'm new to Modding, and I've bricked my HTC Evo 4G LTE about 30 times without running to forums to ask for help on piddly and obvious solutions. As to the "needs" on my kernel, yes... I know I want pretty much everything. Hehe.
This forum has been a tremendous help so far, and I look forward to interacting with you all.
ETA: Current kernel version "3.1.10-Bricked-v0.591-g0a2e5f6 [email protected] #2"

[ROM] LineageOS 14.1 for Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) [SM-J320FN] [UNOFFICIAL] [Q&A]

Hi everyone ! this is our dedicated thread for Q&A about J3 LO14.1 ROM !
hello there...seems everybody is ignoring this part of the thread and posting in the main...LOL...well i just wanted to ask a friend of mine wanted to merge his storage in his wifes J3 2016 device so i said i would research for him as they are both not android enthusiasts,may i ask is the storage merge working on this build so can i merge the ex sd card memory with internal....thank you
I use this ROMs and merge my sd card as adobtable storage, working fine.
I use Easy Adobtable app from google play to split the sd card into 2 partitions.
10% formated as internal storage, 90% as portable.
Hey!
I really appreciate your hard work to make LineageOS on this device working.
Just wanted to build this rom for my own use as I build ROM's for all my other devices as well.
But I encountered an error when building kernel and so the build process stopped with:
make[3]: arm-eabi-gcc: command not found
I'm really wondering what caused that, because for all other devices, especially my OnePlus One, which has also a armv7-a cpu, build process is running well.
I can post the last lines of the build process (debug output) as well, but it's partial in german language.
Maybe you could start telling me what linux distro you're using for the build?
Thanks in advance.
Custom ROM with UVC full support?
Hi dear devs. You are my only hope it seems.
Is there a version of custom ROM for J320FN that includes all the good stuff for UVC functionality? I would really need such a ROM.
(Secondly, I have an old OMIZ BT Keyboard model #OMIZ6221 that connects and syncs with my J320FN and is seen correctly as "BT-FoldableKB" but doesn't work as a standard HID device. It does nothing.)
But what I really need is the UVC full support to connect an external UVC compliant USB cam. (endoscope or DVR etc).
Thanks so much for your efforts and for what you do.
Happy Christmas and a Happy 2018 !!!
P.S. I have no idea if I clicked on the right button. Please for mercy if it was not the right one.
Can we use the SDCARD as internal memory?
Yes, adobtable storage is working.
You can also split the sd card into 2 partitions using ADB command or partition tool
ie : 20% adobtable, 80 ext
