3) A Class 10 Micro SD Card SDHC ( preferably) ( 8GB or 16GB or higher)
Now Before we begin ,
Download
1) Minitool Partion wizard http://download.cnet.com/MiniTool-Partition-Wizard-Home-Edition/3000-2094_4-10962200.html
or
2) Doom Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520654
Download both in case you wanna revert back to a Full 8/16 Gb again
Steps ( Assuming Backup is taken and Phone is completely Wiped and Blank!!
1) Place Micro SD card inside ( Make Sure its in FAT32)
2) switch off Phone
3) Connect to PC in Fastboot Mode
4) Flash the Doom Kernel
5) reboot phone and enter CWM and partition SD Card !!! to make an ext2 for about 2/4GB !!! (Based on 8Gb or 16 GB card) and ensure swap is zero .
6) Once Partition is Complete ( In case u Faced difficulties)
1) Use Minitool and Split the 8/16 into 2/4 GB of Ext2
7 ) flash Lupus Kernel
8) Flash Jadder's 5.0.1 ROM

10) ensure you download LINK2SD app !!! that from Play Store or install it from your sd card if you have one .
NOW DOWLOAD TERMINAL EMULATOR!!! from Play Store and install it
11) Enter the LUPUS MENU IN TERMINAL EMULATOR!!
We are doing this to make the kernel tweak and speed up the SD Card R/W operations ( ie it can support ext2 partition)
12) first type SU
13) then type LUPUS
you will enter a menu
Option -6
and in that choose Option 8 and place it at highest Value!! of CACHE
OK NEXT .....
14) OPEN LINK2SD and follow below easy Steps and link the apps perfectly !!

Thats Great to Hear , Enjoy the Arc !

Well, I have done it quite similar that you did.
I only didn't use doom kernel for partitioning sd card.
My class 10 8gb has second partition of 1gb ext3, that is enough for my use.
In lupus menu through TE I have CACHE 1024. Don't know what is your value... ?!?
Now I have installed around 40 apps. most of them i have greenefied.
I experience modest lag.
Before I had 3 times the same configuration and tested performance on around 80 apps. There was heavy lag. Even When I uninstalled most of apps.
I always format everything. I have 3 peaces of 8gb SD cards that have myself tested R/W speeds around 20/12 mb/s.
I formatted them 7/1 and 6/2 ... doesn't matter.
Now I experience lag, when using internet browser and someone calls me, or if I want to make call... when using numpad, there is lag. I also have to wait to respond to call.
So my arc s is not even close to speed monster.
After all that you have written, you didn+t mention nothing about tweaking cpu speed...
On my last flash and install I haven't tweaked cpu, cause I experienced heat on the back side of phone and no noticeable advance in speed.
Greg

Lupus Kernel allows OverClocking!!.... 1.6 Ghz with Intellidemand or Interactive will do for normal Use !!

Now I'm flashing again... this time with 32gb SD class 10 with max speeds of around 36mb/s-17mb/s, r-w. I formatedit 27,5gb fat32 / 2 gb ext3.
still don't know if 1024 should be max cache value for ext3... in lupus through terminal emulator...

I love UHD with Lupus 16, it very fast

Xperia T ICS with ktg kernel is very good.

Go try. Ty!

I'm totaly lost in all this, I'm new and it's hard for me to understand all this stuff.
I have Arc S LT18i, Android 4.0.4, rooted, but dont know how to do all this.
How to install this Lupus Kernel?
Can somebody guide me better ?

to install custom kernels you need to unlock your bootloader (can do it officially from sony)
http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/
after this its need to install kernale manually via cmd OR flashtool, there plenty of tutorials in ARC forum how to do this
good luck !

you can enter recovery (kernel menu) via:
reboot menu --> reboot device --> rboot to recovery (need be activated 1st in dev settings "show more reboot options")
or press CONTINUESLY volume down on very 1st boot screen (legacy xperia)
good luck!

Instead of flashing the Doom kernel to partition the SD card, or using Minitool, is it possible to partition it on a computer using gparted? Also, is the LUPUS kernal flashed using fastboot, or can it be flashed in CWM?

[Q] JIT Autoinstall [xRecovery]

Hi guys
i'm writing here to ask you only one thing: can anyone create a new xrecovery update.zip in order to autoinstall jit without using adb?
I've seen it in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902974 and there is a similar one for x10 big
Hope you like my idea
Here we go..
To install:
You will need to extract the 2 files from the .rar archive and then rename the one you want to "update.zip" (Without the quotes) and copy to your SD Card. Then reboot yor phone and start xRecovery... choose "Install update.zip".
does this thing really work???
50 views and no one who has made a feedback?
thanks for your sharing but i'd like to know someone who had tried it

your feedback could be great even in that thread
i have install it and the Quadrant gave me the score of 514 points... so this thing really work???
I've answered you in the other post
could you post a E15a version?
Thanks!
Here you are the official thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946231
for 2.1.1 and 2.0.1
I'm not sure about be ok on e15a (i've tried on e15i)
Feedback would be amazing
I've installed this script but Quadrant display a score of ~500.
It doesn't seem to be very efficient...
After that I've tried Racht ROMs and Quadrant score are two times better !
(My favorite is the 2.3.2 CM ROM)
My Score is between 490 - 507 ? Are u sure this is work ?
Sorry...my English is poor !
Any pro guide for Jit ?
From here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877565
dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m

From the Autoinstall (Xrecovery)
dalvik.vm.heapsize=30m
debug.sf.hw=1
1 is 32 m and 1 is 30m ? got different ?
Thanks , I installed JIT successfully , although I didn't notice any improvement
I have installed CUSTOM ROMs FLoyo and Gingerbread and now im back in eclair but apps in my ext2 dont work. I have to install it again or?
Hello,
I'm have a X8 E15i.
Firmware: 2.1_update1
Kernel: 2.6.29
Build: 2.0.1.A.0.47
I have installed Xrecovery. Then i have downloaded JIT and placed it as 'update.zip' in the root of my SD card...
When i boot into Xrecovery, i get the option menu. I choose 'install update.zip'
I see now the green logo, but nothing happens (even after 15minutes!)
When i press the buttons, i get the menu again.
When i choose 'reboot phone', i get the green logo again, and nothing happens (even for more than 15 minutes!)
I rebooted my phone by taking out the batterie...
What am i doing wrong?
Tx!
use HOME button as ENTER
tx for the hint!
I was pushing the wrong button...
Before: score 442
After: score 496
Any possibility to make it even higher?
grz.
iv made a jitexperiment with 2.1 rom.
using both 30 and 32 heapsize n few setting free ram.
I use quadrant many times.. never gave a same score..
the best score out when testin quadrant 4 times on a row with 32 mb heapsize.
516.
now, missin my score with racht rom..
what best app to test quadrant?? i see in market lots of apps to test bencmark of cpu, is that same meaning with quadrant score??
my x8 scrore more than 500, without jit. is that good?? (i use smartbench2010.apk)

Enable swap partition:Swapper2.

Firstly i would like to say i prefer swap partition rather than .swp file created by Swapper2 as its highly unstable for me.
After searching the forum for many days and of course Google I was left with no answers and many errors,but today i accidentally found this while performing numerous try-errors methods.
My cards divided into 3 parts Fat32,ext3,swap(order is important)
After installing Swapper2 from market i directed it to use my swap partition via advanced settings.
The swap default path i.e "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3" gave errors like 'No such directory exists"
So i set it to "/dev/block/vold/179:3"(3-third partition)
then set swapper to start at start-up ,boot into recovery,fix permissions(don't skip this),reboot system.
and Viola swap partition was mounted!
To check swap,type free in terminal.
Thought this would help someone.

easy. pls upgrade from m6 to rc1 or rc2 then the swap will enable automatically(there is a command in the rom no settings needed) to check use terminal emulator, in the terminal type "free" and all the swap mem and stuff will pop out
Thanx for the reply bro .. Also .. As you advised, I upgraded to RC1.
So i want to get the following doubts clear,
> Now that i have upgraded to RC1, do i need to install Swapper2 ?
> Will just partitioning my card as fat32/swap work ?
> Do need to do anything to make the swap partition to work ?
> If the TERMINAL shows up SWAP space, does it mean that the SWAP space is working ? .....
Am a real noob when it comes to SWAP partitions ..!

best is to backup sdcard stuff on computer and then remove all partitions. then go to recovery, partition sdcard, choose size and swap size. powerdown phone put stuff back in sdcard, reboot, in terminal type free and you should see
-----total--------used-----free
swap:XXXXXX--- XXXXX---XXXXXX
well the XXXXX is different from phone to phone and there should be numbers

.swp method is a bit unstable as you require to unmount swap before you connect usb.....also the swap file. Swp gets mounted after your cell starts while swap partition is mounted during boot itself which is more convenient and fast.

No you wont require swapper unless you want to change swappiness.....which is set to 30 default in RC1 ......i prefer 10.
> Will just partitioning my card as fat32/swap work ?
Yes it would.
> Do need to do anything to make the swap partition to work ?
No it would load/mount itself during boot.

What does swappiness mean is greater better?
Greater number = more swap memory
Can someone explain and tell me the file to edit in cm7 to set swappiness
Sent from my GT540 using Tapatalk
Edit file in text editor. ....path system/etc/init.d/07swapon.
By default it is set to 30/60 in rc1/rc2 respectively.
Swapiness 10 is stable for me.
And yes greater the number more it swaps.

Thank you for sharing this.
I did just as you said, but it keeps on telling me that "invalid argument",
however, it also said that "enabling swap partition OK" and "formating swap partition OK".
So.....did I make it?
or I failed?
and what is "boot into recovery,fix permissions"?
I use ROM Manager and flash Clockword Mod Recovery, I can't see where to fix permission?

Please help me with my X8

Hello XDA. I have Se X8 only one week but i know something about android mobile-phones..
I have rooted mobile ..
SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
QUESTIONS:
1.
Today i wanted download apps from Market but it didnt work..
I push download and then it says downloading and then nothing happens..
I searched forums and they says i need to go to the Options and aplications and remove memory on some apps like Google Talk,Market,etc.
I tried all but it didnt work..
How can i repair this?
2.
What is ROM and what is BEST rom for X8..
3.
I have installed a Glow Hockey 2 , Doodle Jump, RObo Defense, NFS SHIFT, mVideoPlayer QQplayer
And these dont work Modern comb , FAST 5
When i push Modern Comb it 5 secs nothing then black screen for 0,2 second and again nothing.. Im back to menu.
when i want play FAST 5 i see black screen with FAILLOFT logo and then ,, A problem occured and the download could not be completed successfully Do you want to restart download? Yes>> Checking file requires.... ... . . . . . And again A problem occured....... . . . ..
Where is problem?
4.
I downloaded Plants VS zombies and it says Little space:Remove some files and try again.
After i deleted some of my good apps and games it still not working..
Where is problem?
1. What sort of connection? If you have a poor wifi connection it may take some time to download... Also if you internal memory is full you won't be able to download anything more
2. The best for me is FroyoBread But you may argue on that
3. Never used those, but X8's hardware may simply be not enough for some high-end-device apps. For example you won't play latest asphalt on X8. There also may be an version issue. Try to find as many versions as you can and look for one that works with X8
4. How big are the apk files? Remember, no matter what you do, you won't have more than, say, 100-120 MB of internal space...
1.
My Wi-Fi connection is really good.. Fast enough for download Market apps.
2.
I dont know what is FroyoBeard and what is OC 768 MHz.. If i ask you, can you write me on Skype and help me with adding Froyobeard and OC 768 MHz ?
3.
Ok
4.
Plants VS zombies
psvzs10.apk
Type:FILE
Path:/sdcard
Size:48,63 MB ::: and i heard something about app2sd .. Will this work?
Ok, too many questions you could answer yourself by simply doing a little bit of search I'm not going to post whole tutorials here, but I'll give you reference links.
First of all:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921652
FroyoBread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079463
If you have problems, refer to my FAQ first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130548
OC stands for Overclocking, you may find the module thread in the thread hub I posted. App2sd or link2sd are systems that place your apps (and in some cases data) on SD card so your internal storage remains clean and you can place more apps. An app that has over 48 MB is huge indeed and may simply have not enough space to be installed
Link2sd needs rooting. It would be simpliest to google it, and you'll need to partition your SD card for it. It's best for stock SE 2.1 ROM.
If you run any custom ROM you can find in android developement area, you gonna have app2sd by default. If you'll use your default fat32 sd card partition only, then only your apps gonna be placed on SD card. If you use ext2/3/4 partition with app2sd hack, then all your INTERNAL storage apps will go to ext partition along with data, while apps "moved to SD" will go to fat32 partition and will have data on ext. Only system apps will have both apk and data in internal storage then.
Choose to your liking
Hello thank your for that.. But please i think i need some additional help from you..
Can you contact me on Skype? Denoo9
I don't use skype, sorry
And something other where we can talk?

[SUPPORT / REVIEW THREAD][11.08.08] Mioze7Ae's CyanogenMod with TI theme

Since i had a lot of PM of people who want explanation to install this ROM
I make this little thread for you.
Notice that i don t make this rom i only test it and make the nandroid image
to know more about that you can read the Mioze7Ae thread here
And for those asking for the performance I try almost all the rom and this is for me the fastest and (with the sileshn theme include) it s also the most beautiful...
I had between 70 to 80 Mo RAM available without swap. With swap i reach the 95 100Mo!!! (I attach my boot.img files too but it s the first fjfalcons').
Here you can find a tutorial to fastboot boot.img to enable swap.
And it works in multilangage (i don t know which but in english spanish and french without a problem)
To enable app on sd and swap you must have your sd part in this way: a fat32 part for the media / a ext3 part / and a swap part
You can find a video guide here on his channel(you will have to search a little but i remember its called 8min Linux...) made by reverendkjr
I make another image and i test it 3times (from sbf to the end...) so all works !!!!!!
For the beginners i will come back to the sbf.
1. SBF
So I m using the Singapore SBF I think you don t need it to get it work but it s better for those who have problem to change it too (it seems to work in every country)
So you can find the singapore sbf here
And you install it wiht RSDlite (do a google search): first put your phone in bootloader mode (when the phone is off you hold the camera and the volume up button while powering up) then you select your sbf and flash it.
2. Recovery
Now you have a fresh new system
You have to install the recovery
First of all you will have to install a file explorer form the market (you can use the one you want it will be deleted when flashing...)
Now you have to move the two apk(universal and root and openrecovery) i attach to this post in your sd
you can now install with your file explorer the apks.
Start with universal and root. Intall it and root your device.
Install the open recovery now. (Install it and install recovery system)
Now you must install Androidiani OpenRecovery I think it will work with out but it s easy and the recovery work better with it... So you just have to extract this zip to your sd (overwriting the similar files)
Now you have a working recovery. To launch it just go to open recovery and click on recovery boot (don t forget to copy the nandroid image folder in the sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery before you go to the recovery)
3. Restoring the nandroid image
Now you have a working AOR (androidiani openrecovery) and you have extract the attach nandroid image to sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery folder
Don t forget that nandroid need a folder name with out any space and in this folder you can only have .img or .md5 files.
So in Open recovery you go to nandroid / restore /
And if you don t change the folder name you must have CyanogenTI0808allupdates in the list
You select it and launch an restore all operation.
After that you come back to the first menu and wipe dalvik cache/ cache partition and wipe data / factory reset
Now you can reboot system. And it s done. Don t forget that the first boot is very long (about 5 or 6minutes)
CyanogenTI0808allupdates (the nandroid image)
(made and posted the 08/08/2011)
With all the new update from the official post (until the 08/08)
And the Twisted Inception theme from sileshn (with the update for the white text and the new battery icon)
You have to change the hour color (in settings / Cyanogen Mod / user interface / status bar) (from black to white)
Known issues:
- Fm Radio not working
- Media Gallery button not working
- Recovery boot (from the restart menu) don t work (you have to reboot holding the volume up button)
- Led notifications from the Cyanogen mod menu don t work but Led Me Know works
- Some users have issues with installing payed apps... I never have so....
Just a reminder to new readers: do not flash the fjfalcon boot.img. You have to use fastboot boot boot.img over USB every time.

I think this is a good idea too. There is already a thread but it is buried in here somewhere and has gaone, as they all do, away from the initial intentions.

Without my apps i have 95 100Mo of free ram (with out the app2ext I have so nearly 100 apps and it take some ram...)
But with all my apps and with the swap enable I can get between 70 to 80Mo
I don t use advtaskkiller anymore i think it use more ram that it can free
I use autokiller memory optimizer (it change the settup of the android task killer so no useless use of ram) and to kill my apps i use the Go task manager (a widget from the golauncher app)
wat u set at the autokiller memory optimizer?

Optimum settings.
But maybe someone have others settings better?
I know some use minfreemanager (already in the rom) but it seems the same than autokiller
b4 reboot the cm6 room was pretty stable... y after i reboot thn it started to freeze?
my 1st fastboot was pretty stable.. can run asphalt6... but the next time ll freeze... bcuz i install chainfire3d have to reboot and i have to fastboot again
even with fast boot i m only getting around 50mb of ram
Here is my Autokiller settings (user set, not pre-set and no fastboot). The work for me after many days/weeks of trial, error and monitoring.

I don't do a lot of gaming but I do listen to quite a bit of online media.
I average around 65-75mb all the time and at the very least 55mb when running Tune-in or Jango radios or Poweramp (memory hog btw but really good media player).
Side note: keep you widgets to a minimum. They eat RAM.
i just encounter some prob when swaped... for the 1st time i swaped it work fine and smooth all the way and no freezing but later on i reboot and try to swaped again my xt started to freeze when run certain apps...

i don't know about that, I went without widgets for the longest time cause everybody always told me how they eat ram and battery. Now for the past month or so I have had 1-2 widgets on each of my home pages and I really don't see much change. I am keeping the same amount of ram available and battery seems to drain the same. Not much difference, but I could be wrong I would have to go back to no widgets for a day or 2 and monitor my ram to be positive. I do know it isn't nearly as bad as what people say that kept me from using them to begin with.

I use both minfree and autokiller and they seem to work together, I set my autokiller and minfreemanager automatically copies the settings. Don't know if it does much good but doesn't do any harm. It seems to work good

Think of it this way. Say you have a 4x2 or 4x4 widget that is oh say MSNBC or Reuters newsfeed or your Facebook/G+ feed. These not only tax you home screen memory but they are always "running" too. If you have something like Widgetlocker where you can customize your lock screen and put apps or link on it directly, I have found that it munches free RAM really bad (14-17mb). So much so that I don't use it anymore (paid app too).
All a widget is is really just a custom icon that either monitors a running app/service, in which case it itself is running. Or it is running on its own, like a clock or feed or some kind.
Something like mClock or Battstat isn't too harsh, but 3rd party Keyboards can be quite draining too (I use Better kb and it is around 11mb but I like it and have had it since day one).
Good way to check is to go to Settings->Apps->Running Services and each will have the MB on the far right. Anything in double digits is hungry for your RAM.
I know you use that Go widget. Check out how much RAM it is using by going into settings and see if it is worth having it on there. Might be. You seem to be getting good RAM so is it aint broken don't fix it.

EWJet 8.24.11 .. What's everyone doing that I am not.?

I'm going to give a quick run down of my situation and what I have done and I would just like to get some understanding or guide to what the heck I'm doing different then everyone else.. and I have lots of knowledge in technology and I'v been playing around with phones for 14 years now.. So here's the deal.
I have 2 Sony Xperia X10a. - one from Rogers the other from Fido.. Who give's a crap.. OK next.
I flashed both phones with FlashTool 3.0.0 -
Rom - X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.ftf
Root IT / Reboot
Xrecovery Install. - I select the first one , so the one w/out GB in the name.
Copy Files to SD Card for GB Flash..Files I copy are..
" X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "
" ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "
I also have a folder "Addons" that I have a couple things like.. " SEMC.Calculator.zip & "SEMC.Gmail.Gtalk.Email.zip" ..so on..
I then Reboot the phone into Xrecovery...
1 - Wipe user data
2 - clear cache
3 - advanced options - clear cache again..
4 - Install Custom Zip....Select " X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "... Done
5 - Reboot Via XRecovery and Remove battery Instantly
6 - Flash via FlashTool - X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_only kernel_baseband.ftf
7 - Unplug / Remove battery . Wait 10 Seconds.. Boot phone.
8 - Phones Booted.. My SD Card already was in 2 FAT32 Partitions. One 14GB one 1GB..
9 - Proceed to Link2SD App..Start it.. Reboot Phone..
10- Selected and Linked Apps in Link2SD .. Rebooted Phone..
11 - Started Link2SD ...go to " More " .. Selected link dalvik-cache files... Rebooted Phone
12 - Used File Explorer .. went to SDCard.. if there is a Scriptz folder Delete it.. there was no scriptz folder..
13 - Rebooted Phone.. Enter in Xrecovery mode.. Advanced options .. "Wipe dalvik cache"
14 - Install Custom Zip..Select " ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "... Done...
15 - Rebooted Via Xrecovery
16 - Started Link2SD... go to " More " .. Select "Link dalvik-cache files" again and then "Market Fix"
17 - Rebooted Phone again.
18 - Used phone.. Setup Google Accounts / Email / Facebook / A few apps / synced picasa photos... Rebooted
Done Install..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 - Ran Quadrant Standard Benchmark .. Free From Market.. Only Scored 850
20 - Rebooted.. and then Installed SetCPU.. Few $ from Market....When I started SetCPU I selected " Show Other Frequency Sets " and Selected
Custom Frequency Reads from:
/sdcard/setcpu.txt
/system/sd/setcpu.txt
/data/local/setcpu
Sort Speeds in kHz, Separated by comma, from lowest to highest.
21 - Allowed Root Access.. and I did not Touch one setting in SetCPU. I went to advanced and selected "Apply"
22 - I then went to INFO in SetCPU .. If I run a Short Bench.. I score between 220 - 250.. avg sometimes it spikes.. Long Bench is 519..
23 - Rebooted .. Ran Quadrant again I am only scoring max 1080ish.. Lowest I have seen is 800.. It is all over the place.. and no where close to 1750 that erik is getting..
24 - I also Ran LINPACK and my max on a single thread was 38 .. and on multi-thread it was 32...
I don't understand What I am missing or doing wrong.. Maybe I have spent too much time on it in the past few days flashing and re flashing and yada yada that i'm just in need of a good break and then go back at it.. but my roomie who has the other X10 that I converted her to from the Iphone is also doing the same where it's not scoring to great..
I also am running into issues on her phone where it's having lots of force closes and freezing....I was just doing a quad benchmark on it now and it only scored 600??? I did the exact same.. back to flashing 2.1.. all the exact steps I have taken on my phone.. the only difference is she only has a 2gb sd card so I have not installed Link2SD on her phone.. But I have been told that should not make too much of a difference.. have i been mislead? Please assist. I am VERY lost and starting to get cheesed .. I just want what Erick has LOL But Really I converted her from Apple to Droid because she used my phone when I had one of Erick's first GB Roms and it was running fast.. she was very impressed and happy..
.. OK As I was typing this out I'm playing around with the phones and I just got a new msg on BOTH phones remember one is Link2SD one is Not.. " Could not read SetCPU Custom Config. Reverting to Defaults. Is your SDCard unmounted from the PC? .. Both phones are not plugged in .. I did a remount in storage settings.. Same error.. But If I do a device selection again.. it reads the SD Card SetCPU.txt files.. WOW . I am so confused. PLEASE ASSIST!!!!
I really hope there is enough information here.. ask me for anything or to do anything on it and i'll send it and give it a shot ! Thanks in advanced everyone! and thanks again Erick for the sick ROM!
Wow.. Another Patch! Updating to 3.3f.zip.. Will report back if any change in performance!
Nevermind. just read the edit.
