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 ..!
Am new to the forums. Please guide me..
Thanks and sorry for my poor english.

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

Thanx a lot for a immediate reply .. Really appreciate it .. Thank you ..

.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.

> Now that i have upgraded to RC1, do i need to install Swapper2 ?
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.
> If the TERMINAL shows up SWAP space, does it mean that the SWAP space is working ? Yes

Substitute 179:3 by 179:2 as your 2 nd partition is swap.

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?

Most Functions are working for me including back up and restore.
No need to rewrite update-script .All flashable working in CWM recovery will also work here.
But backups made by CWM Recovery will not work.This is a complete replacement of Clockworkmod.This has separate backup folders and methods.So you have to do your backups again.

More interested in what is not implemented in other, already existing at the time, recoverys.
These are:
- Ability to install APK's, IMG's, ZIP's, TAR's, TGZ's from the same menu
- Battery charging
- Ability to root any ROM
- battery status (charging status, temperature ) display
- Hold volume keys to scroll
These features really work?

As I said most basic functions and normal backup/restore work...Recovery specific functions...
-Yes you can not only install apk but also choose install location as system app or normal app.Zips Work.All others also should work.
-Battery charging status shown.
-You can set scroll delay in Options>>Set scroll delay to customize "Hold volume keys to scroll"
-Rooting I cannot test because I am already rooted.
Not Working:-
-Changing nand backup location-So do not change it to external sd-we backup on sdcard only anyways
-Battery temperature and voltage-Will fix it later

awesome dude!
will test it now =)
Thanks

I installed and it worked well. First I can connect to wifi but can't surf though, but after reboot 1 time, everything is fine.

Because someone said that he fixed that bug by changing to Savie 's 73 kernel, but I still want to stick with the default kernel of Hyperion, it 's also from Savie too, but Carl said it was specially for Hyperion or something like that guess I should wait then

[Q] HTCHD2

Dear All Seniors,
as i am novice to android and recently bought HTC HD2 with android version 2.3.7 android i upgraded it to [Nov. 18, 2012][ROM][720p] NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.8 [NativeSD]. I have follwoing . I have attached my my snapshots of latest configuration for your reference.
I am facing following problems.
1. After installing new ROM [Nov. 18, 2012][ROM][720p] NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.8 [NativeSD]. my display area has been reducted from top to bootom and that space has been taken over by navigation bar.there is no option where i can removed or disable nevigation bar. and tell me how to incresed dispaly are..refer attached images.
2. facing memory low issue.
Plz Help !!

For the nav bar, there's an option in the settings. You just haven't searched well enough.
For the low space issue, flash an A2SD script or use Link2SD.

nav bar: see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34311060

Just search for 'Link2SD' on the Play Store. Note that this will require you to have an EXT partition on your SD card (see the flashing guide in my sig, it includes partitioning the SD) and if you haven't already partitioned it, the process will wipe your SD card. If you do still need to partition, please back up your data in Titanium Backup first.
I checked the nav bar settings in my ROM and it turns out it was an AOKP feature, not CM, so that's my bad sorry. I still think there must be an option to disable it somewhere. I used that ROM for a fairly long time and I somehow managed to disable the softkeys. Try going to the thread then using the thread search tool to find all of the posts related to the nav bar and see if any of the solutions provided work for you.

[Q] Sd-ext NOT visible in CWM, how to backup & restore sd-ext?

Hello guys,
I try level best to find the solutions to the problems on my own, but at times like this i have no way other than to bother you.
Here's the problem:
Cannot see the sd-ext partition in the CWM recovery.
Do not get the backup of my sd-ext partition after making backup of the device.
'Restore sd-ext' IS available in 'Advanced Restore' options, but when to use since there's no backup being made.
and so every other problem which may arrive due to this.
Details:
Rom: Jellyblast3.0.4
Kernel: RepencisV7 Final
CWM tried: cwm-madteam-galaxY.zip, CWM_bla_bla.zip, CWMv5-Skin1980-GT-S5360.zip
Everything is in native rfs format
sd-ext is formatted with ext2
Using A2sd by Darktremor
sd-ext IS mounted and working fine(screenshots)
No additional tweaks by me.
Only ten scripts in init.d(attached)
CWM Error Report: ...backing up cache..sd-ext not found..
skipping backup of sd-ext. Creating md5 sum..backup complete. (log attached)
Please let me know..
if any other data/detail is required.​
I don't know what's the cause of this problem, though i feel like it might be something related to the kernel.
And also since its Repencis kernel i don't have any clear idea about whom to approach!
And thus made an individual thread for this peculiar problem.
Hopefully, looking forward to find a solution to this problem.

Hello guys,
I try level best to find the solutions to the problems on my own, but at times like this i have no way other than to bother you.
Here's the problem:
Cannot see the sd-ext partition in the CWM recovery.
Do not get the backup of my sd-ext partition after making backup of the device.
'Restore sd-ext' IS available in 'Advanced Restore' options, but when to use since there's no backup being made.
and so every other problem which may arrive due to this.
Details:
Rom: Jellyblast3.0.4
Kernel: RepencisV7 Final
CWM tried: cwm-madteam-galaxY.zip, CWMv5-Skin1980-GT-S5360.zip
Everything is in native rfs format
Using A2sd by Darktremor
sd-ext IS mounted and working fine(screenshots)
No additional tweaks by me.
Only ten scripts in init.d(attached)
Please let me know..

Thankyou sir for your kind interest, but i have used that CWM also.
And talking about kernel sir, i would first prefer to solve this problem then think of opting to 'alternative' solutions.
Because i prefer full a2sd support, i settled with this kernel after testing many.

The only kernel that supports backup of ext is whitesxp kernel
Flash this kernel and the perm cwm included with it will support backup of ext partition although creating a nandriod backup is much slower than with other kernels

Hello marcussmith2626,
I once also tried Merruk kernel and it also used to make the backup of sd-ext when making backup of the device.
In fact. . .its a common thing.
Whenever backups are being made, if sd-ext is present then its backup is automatically made by CWM.
The problem is, in my case its not happening like that.
And about WhiteXP's kernel..
do it support a2sd?
I did try this kernel too. . .but didn't use it for long..since appeared as if it was draining my battery fast.

You sure? I swear I remember using the CWM with whitexp's kernel 1.3.3 and I lost my sd-ext data upon backing up and then restoring.

Use whitexp's kernel and your ext partition should be ext3 . I noticed that Ext3 format is the only format which supported backing up and restoring sd-ext partition successfully. That's my experience . You may like to try.

try this bro maybe it will u...

Thank you sir rkmiks,
that is indeed one good information. Currently I'm with ext2 formatted sd partition.
I will try re -formatting and report back.

ThankYou blackpanther2209 :good:, the CWM you provided solved my problem
It detected sd-ext..:good:
manually mounted it..:good:
made the backup of sd-ext..:good:
checked it in sd card..:good:
Restored it..:good:
All good and working :highfive:
But how is it working, when other CWM of the same version (i.e 5.0.2.6) are unable to detect my ext2 partition?

ThankYou all for your support
ThankYou all..:angel:

Try using another memory card. Some memory cards act like that

Well, I don't think that's needed now. I already found a working version of CWM which solved MY problem.
(though I still don't know why other CWMs didn't detect my other partition :banghead: )

HI I'm having the same problem. Can you repost the version that found your sd-ext to see if it solves mine.
The link isn't working above
I have it recognised on a previous rom but now it won't restore the backups to it.
thank
edit....
Clicked on the correct link and it worked for me.
The cwm there was incompatible with my ace-i

help me too please
i have been to every single stinkin forum about this topic, and it seem that you guys know what you are talking about- my phone- galaxy s gt-i9000 or something like that- long story short- battery died. nothing else happened, and now it will not boot back up. I figured out how to get to the dark core recovery- yet wiping, restoring, mounting, unmounting, formatting, etc- i get the same message- ERROR. I downloaded something named "kies" thinking that would help (looking at a different forum) and it doesnt even recognize that the phone is connected via USB. I just bought this stupid phone from a "friend" 3 months ago, and i really cant afford to get another one. I, in the mean time, am stuck using my daughters old phone that looks like a spider decided to hide behind the screen and make a home for itself. Please HELP!!!!
ps- i am not as smart as i may have sounded above, so please be gentle and use terms, (actually links to take me to some site that will just do it all for me I prefer LOL) that a really cute hot 20 something blonde could understand smootches!!! and PS- i used to be blonde, not anymore, no offense to all others out there.:silly:
