I'm writing the how to my own way, hope this will more helpful..
How To : App2sd on Xperia X10i mini
Pre Installation.
I'm assuming that you have just fresh install 2.1/1.6 firmware and root your phone before you start the procedure. This is how I did with my phone.
1. Reinstall 2.1 firmware by using Sony Ericsson Update Service.
2. Root the phone by using SuperOneClick ( http://d01.megashares.com/dl/1xcuTic/Super...4-ShortFuse.zip ). More info on SuperOneClick, go here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Note : Please disable any anti virus especially Kaspersky as it will give false virus alarm and will delete one of the file.
Step 1 : Preparing your micro SD Card.
Please refer to this link ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index...rd_partitioning ) on how to prepare your micro sd card. For better performance I would advise that you use a Class 10 card instead of the original card that comes with the phone because the card is only Class 2 card. For more infomation on speed class rating of sd card please go here -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital
An excerpt taken from wikipedia :-
The following are the ratings of some currently available cards:
* Class 0 - These cards do not specify performance, which includes all legacy cards prior to class specifications.
* Class 2 - Minimum of 2 MB/s performance. Lowest speed for SDHC cards.
* Class 4 - Minimum of 4 MB/s performance.
* Class 6 - Minimum of 6 MB/s performance.
* Class 10 - Minimum of 10 MB/s performance.
Note : The recommended maximum size of ext2 partition is 1.4GB. I've tried 3GB before and ended up with unstable system and eventually crash the phone. So if you're really greedy since you've bought a 16GB or 32GB card to partition the ext2 more than the recommended size and if your phone is unstable, you've been warn.
Step 2 : Download the related files.
1. App2sd : see attachment
2. adb shell : see attachment
Step 3 : Enabling USB Debugging mode on you phone.
Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging (check this option).
Step 4 : Installing App2sd.
Create a folder name adb in your pc and extract all the files from adb.zip into this folder.
Connect your phone to your pc and mount the sd card. Extract all the file from app2sd2.1.zip to the root of your sd card. Make sure to unmount the sd card before continue the next step.
In your pc open up a dos terminal box by typing cmd in the Search programs and files box.
Type
cd /adb
then type
adb shell
then type
sh /sdcard/app2sd.sh
you'll be presented by this screen...

now just press the enter key & wait.
Important : Make sure to set your phone screen timeout to the max because Superuser will ask for your permission to allow this script to run. If your screen goes blank, you can't see this prompt and the installation will fail.
after a while you'll get this..
busybox is /system/bin/busybox
rm failed for /etc/mount_sd.sh, No such file or directory
+________________________________+
|********************************|
| finished going reboot now |
|********************************|
+--------------------------------+
Don't worry, actually it does not fail. I also got the same message and I also thought it failed but when install all the apps and check using Minitool Partition Wizard and Linux Reader for windows, all my applications are installed into my card (see my previous post with screenshot).
The Explanation
If you look through the app2sd.sh script, command rm /etc/mount_sd.sh means remove/delete the mount_sd.sh file from /etc folder, since that file does not exist in the fresh install phone, it gives this error message but continue with other commands..
rm /etc/mount_sd.sh
mv /system/bin/sh /system/bin/sh_bak
cat /sdcard/sh.sh > /system/bin/sh
chmod 777 /system/bin/sh
busybox cp /sdcard/mount_sd.sh /etc/mount_sd.sh
echo "
+________________________________+

"
sleep 1
reboot
Finally after a reboot, your phone is ready with app2sd. From now on when you install any applications it will save into your sd card.
Disclaimer : Do this at your own risk. I will not responsible if any injuries or damage occur to you or your phone

/!\Warning this is for testing only/!\
¯¯ ¯¯
here is the script that "should work on the x10 minni"
i hadn't one so i can't say if it works
install is verry easy just
first make a second ext2 fomratted patition on the sdcard
extract the zip in the root of your sd-card
open an adb shell
and type in
sh /sdcard/app2sd.sh
then press just enter and app2sd will be installed
yout phone will reboot and then say me if it give errors

it says the folder do not exist
when said it this??
does the actually work?
i have an idea
can anyone of you guys ceck out wat habens if you add a bootscript to
/system/drm/DxDrm/init_drm.rc
/system/etc/hw_config.sh
anyone check this please
just a question.... do it "should work on the x10 minni PRO" ?? ( device with phisycal qwerty) ?
Sorry for my bad english !!
init.rc
what if i enter contents of drm.sh to init.rc?
check please this out!!
in the init.rc it seems the pregram must be a service

i'm not comfy editing init.rc.
I'm gonna try Autostart application from market first.
are you ignoring me ??
and you the autostartapp can't start before it's loaded on boot that means that you must first load the apps
hwconfig.sh
there is no hwconfig.sh in etc folder.
2 thing create one
and check if it excuted
and
check this file
/system/drm/DxDrm/init_drm.rc

trying hw_config.sh
i will try to edit the init.rc
if i succes i will say it
no luck with hw_config.sh
so ive edit my script and i will upload it now on both
x10 an x10 minni this script should work on every android phone
so now your script is good also for x10 mini pro ??
simple way apps2sd
First, you have to make two partitions on your sdcard - Fat32 and ext2 (ext3)
Second, Mount ext2(ext3) on your device
Third, ln -s /system/app/xxx.apk \sdcard\ ext partition\ way you want\xxx.apk
Caution - never try to remove sdcard after this operation - very dangerious for the health of your device.
your way is not so good
and yes it !should! work now buti cannot test it
garbage

Updated April 7th, 2011
All credit to sibere and droidzone and other devs who've developed the Data2SD codes.
Before you do anything with your phone, Pls nanodroid fisrt!!! And flash your phone at YOUR OWN RISK
It's been a while since this post last updated.
In fact, developers of HTC Desire have already create a stable method to implement Data2sd or whatever you call it, which gives you full use of EXT space to install APPs while improving I/O speed at the same time.
The theory is explained here, in case you want to take a further look at it
[DEV][DATA2SD] More space (and more I/O) for your Desire (Updated/EXT4/Flashable ZIP)
And thanks to sibere and droidzone 's great work, now we could make any ROM we like run with Data2sd. here they provide us Flashable ZIP files to make it done
[DATA2SD] Flashable zips for converting any Rom to Data2SD
Updated Instructions and Zips (14/Mar/2011)
I've streamlined the installation procedure so as to make it more generic and compatible with the newer StarBurst zips.
Basic Installation Steps for Data2SD
1. Install your ROM
2. Install the A2SD Killer (specific for your ROM)
3. Next step differs depending on whether you're reflashing your Rom on an existing install, or whether you are installing for the first time.
If you're installing the ROM for the first time:
· Reboot once after running the A2SD Killer
· Setup the timezone, language etc (But not your Google Account/Market)
·Reboot to recovery once again and install the Data2SD Installer
If you're reflashing the ROM (after having installed Data2SD once previously)
·Do not reboot after running the A2SD Killer
·Install the Data2SD Re-Installer right away
·Now reboot.

Important Notes from droidzone
Fully supports Cyanogen
Fully supports Clockworkmod3.0+ (Edified)
I wanted to consolidate all the flashable zips for Data2SD into one place, so that I will find it easy to update the links as I modify the scripts, and to also help Sibere to point his link to this post from OP, so that he doesnt need to reupload each file as they are modified.
Once again, I must assert that Data2SD is totally Sibere's work with other devs who've developed Data2SD code of their own. In my opinion, however, this is the best!
My contribution is conversion of his excellent code into flashable scripts which may be installed via Recovery. So you dont have to type out the code.
The flashable zip is packed as a package of zip files. Each zip file within the package is seperate flashable zip
There are the following files:
Killer, Installer and Reinstaller files for Sense Roms
A2SDKillerV11_Sense.zip
Data2SDInstallerv1.3_Sense.zip
Data2SDReInstallerv1.3_Sense.zip
Installer and Reinstaller files for AOSP Gingerbread Roms and CM7 nightlies (excluding Cyanogen 6 and MIUI 2.2 , but including Cyanogen 7 nightlies and MIUI 2.3.3 )
A2SDKillerV11_GB.zip
Data2SDInstallerv1.3_GB.zip
Data2SDReInstaller1.3_GB.zip
Installer and Reinstaller files for Cyanogen 6 and MIUI 2.2 (Not for CM7 nightlies or MIUI 2.3.3), which are Older Version
A2SDKillerV9.zip
Data2SDInstaller_cyanogen.zip
data2sd-Reinstall_cyanogen.zip
Whether you are trying this method for Sense or AOSP Roms, the installation procedure is same. Only the file is different.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Following droidzone's instruction, I tried these flashable ZIPs with MIUI 1.4.1(Gingerbread 2.3.3)
A2SDKillerV11_GB.zip
Data2SDInstallerv1.3_GB.zip
And it's working just fine. No random reboots, no data or APP lost or system crash after reboot. It's stable and fast!
One more note, you can ignore the previous information below...
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
updata from
melethron's post, and his update package data2whatever.zip included.
you can buy melethron a beer if you want. All credits to melethron!
I test the script with new install MIUI N1 12.24,
so far no reboot issues, or data corruption.
[DATA2whatever] Flashable All-in-one-Solution for Data2sd (HUGE update (dec 23th))
data2whatever v0.2
Features:
- Supports: Ext2, Ext3, Ext4 (and if kernel supports it: ) btrfs, ReiserFS
- Supports loop device as optional addon (as siberes data2sd)
- Flashable zip for many app2sd ROMs (no long setup required)
- It does a e2fsck (disk check) on every boot and creates a logfile on the sdcard (/sdcard/e2fscklog.txt)
- looks nice if you do a logcat on boot
- no "settings lost on reboot" bug like in my old or siberes script
- changes the scheduler for the sd-card and internal to noop for better performance on sd.
- Nandroid Backup of EXT2/3/4 external with AmonRa 2.0.0.1 or any clockwork recovery.
- Removes the common app2sd scripts on its own
Requirements
- A second partition (same as app2sd - Min 512 mb - 1024mb is highly recommended - max 2048 MB or there will be issues with market) in any format (as long as the kernel supports - ext2/3/4 support is default in most kernels - Ext4 or ReiserFS is recommended).
- An app2sd or non app2sd ROM (data2sd versions wont work) (this SHOULD work with most or at least many ROMs . Roms that are confirmed to work can be found in the post below. Please report to me it it works or not so i can update this thread. If it doesn't work i try to make it compatible asap. )
Installation
1.) Full wipe (at least needed on first installation)
2.) Flash the app2sd Version of the ROM of your choice
3.) DONT REBOOT
4.) If you rebooted then start over at 1.)
5.) flash the attached "data2whatever.zip"
6.) now reboot
ADDITIONAL INFO: Even without "life on the edge" you should watch the first 4 "don't"s of "life on the edge". The normal script use the same disk safety methods as NTFS on Windows or EXT4 on linux. But as you know you shouldnt just switch off the computer because there can still be issues in very rare cases. Reboots with tools like "snqs power menu" is the same as a batterypull (or pulling the ac plug on PC) and this isn't good in general (and this also applies for using it with app2sd). If you want to go to recovery just make a normal shutdown and switch the phone on with "volume down" button pressed.
Optional life-on-the-edge add on
you can find this add on in melethron's original post, and try it on your own risk
This patch has the same effect as sibere's and ownhere's script (loop device - the way ownhere does in v4 doesnt work though). Other than those scripts it this addon doesnt need any repartitioning or other setup (like FAT or a third partition) and can simply be installed or removed with a flashable zip. All you need for this is a normal ext 2/3/4 partition (as above ^^). Ext4 is recommended for this (as above) since it is the fastest of those 3. This patch is more risky than normal ext3/4 considering the possibility of data loss. If you want to use this add-on you should watch the following (this also applys to ownheres and sibere script and is NOT more risky than their scripts):
- DON'T use the reboot of snq's powermenu (or any other reboot app)
- DON'T use anything in the "ROM Manager" that makes it reboot.
- DON'T do adb reboot / abd reboot recovery / adb reboot bootloader
- DON'T pull the battery while the phone is on (this should be obvious)
- DON'T remove the "sync" mount options for the Quadrant "boost" (this is a fake boost anyway)
All of this is like a powerloss for the sd-card and has a high change of data corruption.
From my test with this i give you an estimate what can happen if a powerloss occurs or any of the 5 points above happen:
- 50% general chance of corruption that will be autofixed on boot (not a problem)
- 10% chance of forcecloses after reboot of some apps (this can be fixed by deleting the app data or restoring it with titanium (or other) backup)
- REALLY tiny chance (didnt happen for me in over 40 "simulated" powerlosses) that partition gets corrupted (needs complete repartitioning of the microSD so all data on it will be gone then)
As long as you watch the 5 points above and as long as you don't drop the phone and the battery jumps out this will be safe.
Installation of the addon:
- Flash the "life-on-the-edge.zip" any time after you installed "data2whatever".
Installation of the addon:
- Flash the "life-on-the-edge-UNPATCH.zip" any time after you installed "data2whatever" and the addon. (this will revert back to the normal script)
Personal remark: While this is a improvement over normal ext4 it is not the "holy-grale" of a data2sd lag fix. I'm not using this myself and use a ReiserFS as second partition instead which is more safe and completly feels the same as a "loop" device considering performance.

Dec14 info update:
I uploaded A mod script for CM6.1 stable by Carrol
Carrol changes the script to create a ext4 loop device on EXT4 partition.
Code:

then
echo "+++Need create ext4 loopback device for data, please wait... this is 1/5 size of your ext partition"

$BUSYBOX chown 1000.1000 /mnt/asec/extdata
$BUSYBOX chmod 771 /mnt/asec/extdata
Note that this script is for CM6.1 stable only, only ONE EXT partition needed on your SDCard, and it will be formated into EXT4, do nanodroid before you try

There's a version for Desire, which is here [DATA2EXT] [11/Dec] FULL BENCHMARK, V4, Improve the efficiency of IO
While improving IO efficiency, it moves all userdata to EXT so to avoid insufficient ROM space, cos the whole EXT is recognized as the internal ROM.
with ownhere's v4 script, I got my miui rom working, no data lost or crash after reboot/battery-removed:
1. miui rom 12.03 clean installation（a2sd+ script removed）, then flash update.zip of v4 script. working. applying 12.03 to 12.10 and 12.10 to 12.11 ota packages, working.
2. miui rom 12.11 clean installation, flash v4 update.zip, working.
3. miui rom 12.11 with a2sd+ running, 38 apps installed and /data/data moved to ext. The v4 update.zip can still do the job.
However, one problem is that Root explorer couldnot display Chinese filenames of APK , showing only ？？？. and if install those apks via root explorer, it just reports errors...
Another thing i am not sure of is not knowing how much v4 script could improve when there is only 1 ext partition. According to ownhere, 2 ext partitions are needed to make the best out of his v4 script...
I attached the v4 updtae.zip - Data2ext_update.zip ，in case you might wanna try:
1. BEFORE you try this package, you need to remove the app2ext script(file like 04apps2sd or 01 apps2sd) from /system/etc/init.d, or you would only get bootloop going on and on
2. And of course, Nanodroid...
3. disable signature checking in recovery...
______________________________________________________________________________________________
I tried merging those files into MIUI N1 ROM.
When N1 boots for the 1st time, everything's working just fine.
Now we know the previous script is faking the Quadrant score...
Quadrant bechmark really rocks with I/O scoring 8000+ and a total score @ 3000+
But after reboot, there came some issues:
System config could not be saved;
Home button wouldn't work;
Flight mode and Quiet mode missing in the reboot menu...
Could someone pls help to rewrite the script to fit in N1 ROM?
I think people using N1 would interested in such a script or rom that brings N1 more I/O performance and more space for Apps.
But I have no knowledge of coding, don't know how to fix the issues above.
So I add download link of the script CREATED by ownhere, not by me, hoping someone could make a N1 MOD...
data2ext.zip
data2ext.zip is not a flashable package
Thanks!

Sorry, but I don't think Darktremor Apps2SD script could do the job.
Since there is difference between Apps2SD and Data2Ext:
Apps2SD moves
/data/app, /data/app-private and /data/dalvik-cache to EXT
And with some commands /data/data could also be moved to EXT
But Data2Ext moves
/data/app to EXT4
/data/data to a virtual EXT2 device on EXT4, which is the trick to improve IO efficiency working at peak level...
SO I don't know if there is a answer fort this in Q&A...
this comes up after searching
G1 data2sd instruction works for the N1 i suppose ?

**There is NO booting into recovery and wiping of the phone!**
My bad for not being clear on the wipe instructions!
1) (optional) If you are to wipe it (your choice it is not required), then press menu->settings->SD card & phone storage->scroll to bottom of screen and select "Factory data reset". This will wipe the /data partition only removing all apps and settings. BACKUP YOUR /data dir to sd, First or you will need to down load all your apps again to include paid apps!!
2) place data2sd.img in root of SDcard (fat32)
3) terminal in or adb shell in.
4) cp /sdcard/data2sd.sh to /data/local/bin - to copy the script to your user-space
5) chmod 0750 /data/local/bin/data2sd.sh - to make it executable
6) /data/local/bin/data2sd.sh or data2sd.sh may work to run the script
7) once the install is done it should tell you to reboot. If you had the ddms debugger running, you can observer the log as it is working.
8) done. It may boot a little longer if you clean-slate installed and then restored your apps by copying them back into /data/app and /data/app-private which has the affect of reinstalling everything, and thus the boot will take a while if you have alot of apps like I do. Again you can observe this as the Android boots if you have the debugger running.

I'm also confused, how does darktremor move all of that to ext? Please explain. I thought darktremor moves apps to ext. If you fail, then you sir are an idiot and gtfo.
A "simple" reread (If that's even enough, maybe 100x more for you) would've told you want he wanted.
Sorry for invading your post jayfallen!!
I for one, am glad you posted this and would like to try it once you get it going.
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853001
I recommend only moving the data of non-essential apps and those apps which DO NOT contain security sensitive data (games, Google Earth, etc. should be fine).
I edited the thread title, and added download link of the script created by ownhere.
someone might wanna take a look, if you're interested in bring your N1 more I/O performance and more space for Apps.
Thanks for everyone replying this thread. I will try your suggestions.
eVil's hd rom~
it's not work on the evil's hd sense?i try that last night~ but it's very hard!!!
i m abt to try this
http://www.miui.com/thread-10723-1-1.html?extra=page=1
wish me luck
the thread @ miui.com was posted by me earlier...
that rom is just experimental, if you don't reboot, everything works fine.
once rebooted, config lost and homebutton lost...
I don't know how to fix, that's why I start this thread @ xda, hoping someone could make it work for N1...
Wow this I want
Not sure if this can help..

The rom is said to be based on Cyanogen Mod 6.1 Stable, with data2EXT enabled by default.
The attached screenshot comes from a user of the data2Ext rom, note that the internal storage has 0.9GB left.

That because the current script will only move system/app to ext. There is nothing else in there to tell it to move any other folder, thus failing.
there's been new development...
as houzuoguo mentioned, a CM6.1stable+data2ext mod ROM is out, but there're still some issues
ownhere update his script to V3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859419
1.change loopback device to real partition for powersave and better write performance.
2.disable second partition's journaling.
3.You need 3rd partition for /data/data. But even without the third partition of this script can also work(not stable). My partition settings:second partition:1.5G, thrid partition:0.5G
meanwhile, another new approach is coming out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868102
NILFS2 - data2nilf2 will be much faster then data2ext and won't have Lags.
whoa
i m glad there are so many new development out everyday
feel so good knowing the n1 is not being left behind
speaking of this is pretty freaking awesome

That is a huge improvement in IO!
Lets hope this reaches a stable state soon
I wonder why quadrant weighs so much on disk IO for the total score.
Would this be possible on other devices? lets say the g2?
Would someone mind explaining what tangible improvements this makes? Obviously there is an impressive boost in Quadrant scores, but I'm unsure what difference it makes to the actual operation of the device.

App2sd u get 512mb for ext3.
Data2ext u get at least 2gb for apps and stuff
Lol. Are u serious. For io scores it cheats. See the script. Fake ext2 for quadrant
truth to be told，they say TTL 2000+ and IO 3000 is the actual scroe...
Hi all,
Here is a new beta version of the flashtool that, this time, I hope it will fix the Optimize(JIT) feature bricking phones in 0.2.6 versions
It should install the 0.1 release of xRecovery for E10 too.
FlashTool 0.2.7.1 (beta)
beta.zip to apply to the 0.2.7.1 version : better device detection
beta2.zip to apply to the 0.2.7.1 version : improved again device detection
I don't own a mini or mini pro so I couldn't test it
If some want to give me feedback, it would be great.
I hope this 0.2.7.1 will be the last before release
Thanks to all testers
bricked it on a fresh installation of 211a06, root didnt work either. did soc root and tried optimize and when it rebootet it got stuck on SE picture

jit v2 is optimized to arm7 phones.
x10 mini and x10 mini pro are arm v6, so you should optimize arm v7 phones with JIT v2, and arm v6 with JIT v1.
thats why phone freezes on SE logo.

But the creator of the program is working to make it for every x10 in family.
It was a test and dont work, pityfuly.
The only thing I think will be ever be useable for the mini/pro (besides flashing firmware) is the Root option as this is basically the same for X10 and e10/u20.
But trying to install the X10 version of JIT and xrecovery on the E10 or U20 is never going to work. (you will need an option to install mini/pro versions in a popup) or another button.. "Optimise mini/pro" (now its getting complicated and messy)
Remember the rule.. Keep it simple (keeping in line with the original Flashtool the main thing is that flashtool can flash firmware, decrypting is nice too.. and root is useful, everything else is too device dependant and there is other software out there to do it simply already) I for one would love a lite version.
I have so much software that does so many things but nothing really well because people want to try to do too much. Keep it simple!
Thanks to you and Bin4ry for a great "Flashing" tool.

Kiwi,
Xrecovery already works for all xperia family(minis, pros, x8 and x10).
Its unified version from Zidzu in Big xperia foruns.
A simple solution fot Jit thing just need a submenu that the user can tell witch phone is their.
I tried to get the latest version of xrecovery working on my mini and it caused crash and bootloop (version 3) did you get this "unified Version" working on a mini or pro? If so let me know how you managed it.
Cheers

xrecovery won't work on my x10 mini, when booting into recovery mode the telephone just reboots and shows the sony ericsson startup screen again.
I don't know which tool all of you guys use but the things i tried won't work at all.

Can someone do an adb shell mount command and post the result ?
the chargemon script differs from X10 to X10 mini/pro and I would like to unify it for all x10/mini/pro/X8 devices
the adb shell mount command will print all mounted FS (mtdblocks and mount points)

Thank you very much
Another thing about xRecovery :
the charemon script replaces an existing binary that usually do the offline charging.
On X10, this binary has been renamed to charger and is called inside the chargemon script (so that this feature is not lost).
Could I have the chargemon binary from X10 mini ? (the original one before it is replaced by the chargemon script) ?
Thanks in advance.
Here we go dude, its the binary file from .24 firmware (just delete the .zip extension.. I had to give it an extension to post on here)
View attachment chargemon.zip
Good luck

If you don't have CWM then you can do following:
Make a file with this content:
Version 1:
#!/system/bin/sh
if [ -e /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb ]
then
/system/xbin/echo "128" > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb;
fi;
Version 2 (If the Version 1 is not working for your ROM - credit goes to rafpigna):
# Tweak mmc read-ahead - rafpigna -
mmcfolder="/sys/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1"
cd $mmcfolder
folderlist=`ls -1`
mmcresult=`echo $folderlist | grep -o '\bmmc1:\w*' | sed 's/mmc1://'`
echo 128 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:$mmcresult/block/mmcblk0/queue/read_ahead_kb
cd /
Change the red marked number from 128 to what you need (example 2048) and save it as "99sdcardreadfix", copy it with the Root explorer or push it with ADB into /system/etc/init.d and set permissions to 777. Reboot.
just flash one of the links he posted
It doesn't work with xrecovery ... allready tried.

I think there is an error in the text code:
#!/system/bin/sh
if [ -e /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb ]
then
/system/xbin/echo "128" > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb;
fi;
I can't get the code to work automatically but it works!
Row Labels Average of Read Average of Write
128 18.067 13.033
2048 62.171 13.793
3072 74.785 13.505
4096 69.367 13.595
with 3072 it even hit 90MB/s sometimes!. thx u mate.

There is nothing to share here I guess. You are looking at wrong file. there si no system/etc there is only etc/init.d when you use root explorer.
however you can edit your values by
- Manually change read_ahead_kb from 128 to 2048, 3072 or 4096 using root explorer.
i am getting 6 mb/s read and 40 or 50 mb/s write
not bad finding
i was able to increase reading speed from ~10Mb to 18Mb with a script file
the problem with this is that after a reboot it returns to 128Kb
but HELL i had a script so everytime i reboot just need to press one button

I will try tomorrow with full version of this cfw
Very good job! I congratulate you!
This is one of the most complete truth Roms?.
Will you do a video to see the optimization?

write this :
/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 swap swap defaults 0 0
for save like this :
:z or :w (cause im on azerty keyboard)
then quit:

Or other way in windows :
notepad
copy past line
and save file name fstab
with no extension
(you need to choice in option folder to see extension on file in windows for no mistake)
and adb push fstab /etc/
or copy it on sd and on terminal android if you dont have adb shell do this :
cp /emmc/fstab /etc/
then in terminal or shell :
chmod 0755 /etc/fstab
finaly reboot and on terminal android :
swapon /dev/block/mmcblk1p2
if you want all time swapon start you need to add on script in /etc/init.d/ folder
