Hi.
Is there a way to change the partition layout of the internal ram?
Or why is there 4gb reserved for the system and only 4gb free. The Tom itself us only about 150 MB....
Thx
Yes, we will probably do it for AOKP.
And for all the others who will not use aokp, meaning a standalone partition layout change?
Thx
When will the first release of AOKP arrive?

The rest is likely reserved by the kernel, that's the ram available for user apps

Thanks for the info,,,have a nice day.
Hi guys, my father has a Milestone 1 and the dev there has included a new app2sd script on his CM ROM.
I've been using it for quite sometime and it's AWESOME!
It's nice and clean and I haven't found any bugs yet.
The source for this script is here: https://gist.github.com/1244362
Since I'm no dev, I have no idea how to use it on P500. It would be nice to see one of our devs making a flashable zip for us.
This is the ROM using the script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941346&page=679

You know by any chance if the script has the bootloop problem ungaze and darktremor scripts have? You know what i'm talking about...
And thanks for taking interest into that matter. I and Miasmic were pointing it out for some time. Now that CM7 is almost bugless, that would be the only problem left for our device, a stable a2sd script. If only some dev would take interest in it...

Yeah, I know about these problems, that's why I don't use Darktremor or Ungaze anymore.
This script on Milestone (a very low memory device) is working perfectly.
It made the phone actually a lot faster.
I hope one of the devs see this.
Change post name. Add NEED DEV DESPERATELY or smth like that
And 2 other ways to use a2sd (maybe those could work too on O1).

why not use link2sd ?

I did not use it. Doesn't it give bootloops if too many apps are installed and moved to sd ext? If you use it try and stress it to its max and report back. Maybe it works, although it doubt it.
Have you tried using mount2sd on OpT yet? The second link option

Someone had solved it.It is dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip.It working fine!

I always use Link2SD and no boot loops for me for about 9 month.

It`s not about the time, but the amount of apps moved to sd. For example ungaze lets you move max 2GB (the size of sd ext) but i could only move about 1.2 or 1.3 GB of apps before getting bootloops. Also darktremor only lets you move about 2/3 of the space available on sd ext before getting bootloops.
So please test if link2sd and other apps solved this so we can use that stable one instead of bootloops ones.
It seems the problem is solved with Mount2sd app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342387
"For some reason, the CM Team has come up with this fun idea to place the dalvik cache for all system apps in /cache/dalvik-cache instead of /data/dalvik-cache with the rest of it. This is especially fun when you have a cache size of 5mb, because then there is not enough space to build the dalvik-cache and you end up with these really funny reboot loops. However, if you are some boring person that does not find these reboot loop's fun, you can enable cmdalvik to fix this problem. It will force the dalvik-cache in /cache to be placed in the correct /data path among the rest of the dex files."

Hello
CM11 has a kernel that works a little differently compared to others (ICS/JB): The "virtual memory" (swap space) created by your app is stored in a file in the SD card.
The new CM11 kernel has not allowed to use files as virtual memory (it's unstable and dangerous).
If you insist and want to swap memory, creates the virtual memory space on a partition of the SD card (a little complicated), or use loop files (not recommended, unstable & dangerous).
Anyway, not sure if the program you are using will allow you to do that.
Thanks alot for the information.

Hello everyone,
I have rooted the xperia mini using Eroot and have installed app2sd to move system apps to SD card, the card is a 16GB split 8ext2 and 8 fat32 both partitions are set primary
The problem is when i try to move system app i get error saying cannot mount ext2
To resolve the problem i have uninstalled and re-installed app2sd, have repaired the OS using PC companion and root again but every time the result is the same.
I am running sony software only with root.
Can anyone help please?
I don't think stock kernel supports ext partition by default. Try searching ext2/3/4 module for stock rom.

It was running stock and ext2 before don't get what happen and why doesn't work anymore.
I've removed some of the bloatware to make some room to install a couple apps so it will have to do.
Wish sony made a real mini phone with specs like Z up

This ext4 partition is for apps or for cache? An if for apps there is still need to use link2sd or u changed partitions so its seen as internal memory?
And one more question: Do i need to be on neo l ics fw or .62 vendor unlocked and newer play gb fws are good?

required FW is 62 or .79 with vendor partition..if you have it dont need to flash..i forget to say that on tutorial video.sorry...if you see the screenshot im on .62 firmware.. partition is for cache only..not available for user apps.
dont need to flash NEO L firmware..
ok. 1.5gb is a lot, i really thought that art needs 400-500mb...

as i say you can try 1GB and swap 128..or other values that you see its working..video is generic,should work with other sizes, but at least 1GB i think you are fine.
ok will try it. Now i need to clean sdcard and repartition it.
Did you (or anyon eother, but noone is talking here) tried something like link2sd? It will probably try to use "cache" partition as its, so its pretty unusefull i think (?)

SO after 15 minutes if use (and additional 15 minutes to ler it do the magic in the begginingI i see that automatic brigteness doesnt work and flashlight breaks everything - i mean screen gots dark and i cant do nothing except take out battery
EDIT: U said that this 1.5 gb is for cache, however i see that its used as internal storage (so its data), that mean that it can be how i think: internal memory is split for system and cache and data partition is moved to sdcard?
smokerman i belive you should move your Thread to Q&A or Troubleshooting as we are not the REAL DEVS of this ROM.. its Mike and he will eventually Create new threads for cm12 here.. lets give him this space... in the Dev thread.. i also for the same reason didnt create the thread here.. i hope you understand my point.. we dont want to tick him off do we.. lol
the rom at this point its enough for daily usage..when mike wants to take over or create a new thread i will close this one and put a link to his thread..for now its just to have all users in the same space as your q&a thread was created on early buildings..alpha..this now is like BETA stage..from my tests its a decent rom in this stage..i will try to fix touchpads if i can and if have time..nowadays i dont use xperia play anymore..im developing for other devices and this days xperia play unfortunely is more than outdated..i find myself struggling to get something more of this amazing device..i wish SONY could make a xperia play 2..but that is another thing..and people dont sign my petition , dont know why..almost a year and only 50 signatures..xperia play users are a bit ungrateful with developers..i know that now..thats why many developers leave from here and now its finally my turn to say goodbye..now and then i will be here to see my threads but anytime soon this subforum maybe will go to low legacy devices.
One thing I want to know: is the recovery still CM Recovery, and is it still not capable of flashing packages other than ROM and GAPPS?

Its still cm recovery, and it flashed supersu zip package. Dont have more mods for l as started playing with it yesterday evening
EDIT: I couldnt flash xposed for lollipop so it probably still doesnt let to flash other zips
I did the whole process and I get this
Do you made ext4 partition on sdcard? What application did u use for this? I recommend gparted as it always works for me (recovery or minitool sometimes gave me unseen partitions)

Can we bot Kitkat by using this kernel
just asking out of curiosity...can i boot kitkat(4.4.4) by using kernel of CM12
PS :- I tried to boot kitkat by using this kernel however it booted but was stucked in CM logo ....wouldn't it be great to get camera working in Kitkat and also there is no lag problem in KITKAT rom.
Btw, Smokerman Hats off to ur effort, its truly appreciated by every NEO L user

Certainly not... Kernels are never versatile. Also, the lag isn't necessarily associated to the kernel.

...and if you mean the speed, from my experience running PPSSPP, it's actually faster than CM11 in frame rate (for strange reason - CM11 stutters in even the simplest PSP game), though still not up to par with the good'ol ICS.

Hello XDA community! while I'm not forum Xperia Play, and recently between seeing as ive developing new rom's and I found this, and to save time to read all the post, wanted to know how things are going in general? .
Games?
Gamepad support? analogues?
3G - WIFI - Bluetooth - SMS?
stability and compatibility with applications?
if someone would be so kind you've tried the latest build and I can answer these questions.
thanks in advance
