[MOD]SD Card reading speed fix UPDATED w/ Flashable Zip - G2 and Desire Z Android Development

Thanks to brainmaster!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010807
We now can up the speed on our SD Cards, since most of us are using some type of "Apps2SD". I have tried this and seen improved PERFORMANCE!!! Up to 3 times in performance. This mod will affect the WHOLE sdcard, even your ext. So it is not harmless in any way, also it doesn't matter what size of sdcard you have.
There is a script that needs to be placed in the init.d folder, to make this permanant. Right now, just by adjusting the value, it is only temporary. When you reboot, the value will set back to default.
Many of us are disappointed about the reading speed of the SD Cards on our Android Phones. It doesn't matter if you have fast 10 Class SD Card, it performs very poorly on the Phone comparing how it performs on the PC.
The clue is the Cache size for reading from SD Card. It's set to 128 KB, on some ROM's even to 4 KB!
You can check for yourself your Cache size by looking into this file:
/sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
This is what I did: (old way)
1. Opened an app called "Root Explorer" which is on the market
2. Went to /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
3. Changed the value from 128(or whatever your value is) to 2048.
4. Saved it
5. Opened up an app called "SD Tools" which is on the market
6. Done a test and started clapping!! LOL!! This mod is AWESOME!!
Or you can flash the zip through Clockwork Recovery (located at the bottom of this post), thanks to amazinglarry!
Now after flashing through recovery do this:
Open terminal on phone
Type: su
Then type: readfix
Then pick one of the values
Other values that you can use and that have been tested:
1024kbs
2048kbs
3072kbs
4096kbs
All credits go to brainmaster! So go to his thread and hit the "Thanks" tab and/or donate.
*Have not tried any of the flashable zips on his thread.

Seems like a pretty dramatic increase. Is it safe for all classes of SD card?

No. You'll need to use a script to apply it on boot. If you're using Virtuous, you can add the script to /system/etc/init.d/.
Thanks for the info, I'll be incorporating this change into the next version of Virtuous.

Ok so let me get this straight, you posted this thread for one reason, to figure out something that is clearly posted on his op? Lol, and to top it off you repost it in the g2 development section, when the original thread is in android hacks where it should be? Just getting a few things cleared up

Disgard...

This thread is to give the orginal dev more publicy for his work. So far no one in the G2 dev community has seen this, therefore hints the reason why its posted here. I am a person to help the community grow and become more educated. Thanks for your once again, negative concern sparky.
Edit: And yes sparky, you can use this in your ROMS, just make sure you give credit to brainmaster

Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I would of never known about this! Continue spreading the knowledge!

I have a class 2 16GB micro sd in my G2. Initial testing (read ahead set to stock 1024kb) showed a very consistent 1.4MB/s write time, 16.6MB/s read time. I got my best results setting read ahead to 4096kb. Write time at 4.9MB/s, read time at 19.7MB/s.
I'll try sticking with this setting for awhile and see what happens.
Thanks for the info.
Sent from my G2

easy read ahead script from terminal with option to set at boot
see above description.
flash from recovery:
View attachment sdcard-readfix-v1.1.1-signed.zip
default value will be set to 2048 after flash, use scripts in terminal to revert or change.
terminal commands:
su
readfix
example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
enjoy.
rom developers feel free to use, just play nice and credit.
oh and sparksco, your negativity isnt helping anyone and is frankly annoying.
HERE. THIS IMPLEMENTATION has not been posted elsewhere, feel free to add to the OP mjybarr.
EDIT 1.1 - added custom values, added new path for read ahaed cache per rmk (works great on my stock 8gb card)
EDIT: 1.1.1 - added better support for rooted stock roms.

I don't see anything wrong with what the OP did. I too would likely have overlooked this had he not posted it.

That has good battery saving ratings
and that have removed nova, kindle etc
Don't know any other way to install ROM, themes or Kernel so if anyone wants to help I will be grateful. I wish someone can told me which ROM's I can use that they match my requirement so I can try couple of them (only know for fresh so far).
THANK YOU!

Really alot of the SENSE ROMS on here will meet your requirements but there would be more to it then just that like how you feel about the rom and it works for you. I WILL SAY MYN'S tho cause i get well over 18 hours with heavy use on the battery life. But every phone and user is different. JUST REMEBER ALWAYS BACK UP, BACK UP, AND DID I MENTION BACK UP. so go to rom manager flash MYN'S and try it. if you dont like it try another from there. I go back and forth from CM 6.1.2 and Myn's RLS 5
HOPE THAT HELPS

oh and didnt see you dont kno how to install outside of rom manager. just download the rom, put the .zip file on the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery (a simple way is the option in rom manager) select wipe, wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache twice each, and then choose flash zip from sdcard, and choose the zip. finally, do the dance.

If you like like stock, you can always just get the Sprint Lovers rom and remove the bloatware via adb. Just force delete it basically

If you get it, please share
Try Ricsims Stock Turbo 3.70
I use it as a daily driver and has been best Sense Rom I have found so far. Also am running the stock HTC #15 kernel included in ROM.
As far as bloatware, because you're rooted you can remove unwanted apps via Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, or manually through ADB.
Also consider using Android Commander. It makes using ADB much more user friendly.

[ROM] 11-6-11 ModwithouttheCyan

This is a modded version of cyanogenmod 7.1.0 that has been stripped down
and added a gingerbread launcher and the ics music.apk
For further changes please comment.
Quadrant Score:-3000 to 3400 on average Linpack:-55 to 60.
Change log:-
Version 1.0
1506mhz
Gingerbread launcher added
Ice Cream Sandwich Music 4.01 added
This is what i did:-
I removed these apps:-
ADWLauncher.apk
Androidian.apk
CarHomeLauncher.apk
CMWallpapers.apk
Cyanbread.apk
Development.apk
DSPManager.apk
Filemanager.apk
FMRadio.apk
GenieWidget.apk
Music.apk
Protips.apk
SoundRecoder.apk
SpareParts.apk
ThemeChooser.apk
ThemeManager.apk
Torch.apk
and added these:-
Stock Gingerbread Launcher (Launcher.apk)
Music4.01.apk(ICS music)
I also removed the boring cyanogenmod boot animation and replaced it with the energy star boot animation posted by one of the developers.
Version 1.1
Added FM.apk back
Added torch.apk back
In the next version i will be implementing more ice cream sandwich into the rom.
I recommend to do a full wipe for optimal performance.
Please refer to http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Lat...on#Google_Apps for gapps
Please leave feedback and tell me what i should add or remove.
Downloads:-
Version 1.0 http://www.mediafire.com/?j1do74d3833r471
Version 1.1 http://www.mediafire.com/?4w8be4s1inc7z89
To all the people criticizing me I added a second thread to edit the title. The bootanimation was in the last thread too. Nothing to do with it.
Credits to
Cyanogen for his rom
Modaco for his launcher
The bootanimation I'm not sure who made it but thank you
I posted a second one because i did [Rom] this way but i realized every other developer does it this way [ROM] lol

I'm sorry sir, but spending the 5 minutes it takes to open up a zip file and delete some apks that you don't like does not qualify this as a custom rom. I see and appreciate your effort in trying to contribute, but this probably didn't need to be posted.
Edit: also, you can change the title of your thread by simply going to "edit" and "advanced".
What do you suggest i do otherwise CyanogenMod is perfect in every aspect except the themes and slight bloatware so this is a "Custom Rom" because it has been modified to "Custom specifications". Also every rom is a variation of another. Virtous for example is just a variation of sense. So to the conclusion what should i do to this rom make it custom?

This could be just what im after is it stable? And would the overclock cause me any issues?
edit, post removed
No disrespect at all but this does have a little "custom" rom in it but its not that much to say.
If you compiled the rom from cm source like myself and then make your own changes to the source that aren't in the source at all then it'll be a custom rom because its your own work that makes it slightly different.
If you added your own scripts to it then its a custom rom as long as its YOUR scripts or someone else's script but you need to ask for their permission to use it.
If you optimized the apks, then its your own changes.
Also if you want to make it into a ics theme or ics apps then incorporate the necessary apps and then theme the rom itself from a ics theme apk which is time consuming
Hope this gives you some advice

Quadrant scores don't prove anything, they can be faked easily. I'm not saying that you're faking them, I'm just pointing out that Quadrant scores are not the best thing to prove anything.

Right on!
Regarding the rom: i was talking with 'molesarecoming', one of the creator of Paranoid Android, about a fix for hybrid mode (turn it on and apps from market tends to disappear or be incompatible) and he said that, the only fix for this is to make PA on a Jellybean. That's too bad for us since JB is not released *yet* but I know it will hit the market soon
By buggy I mean when I try to manually Google search it sometimes crashes and also I have to touch the screen for the results to pop up as all I get is a white screen at first

I am not sure does PA Rom is causing the issue or mod it self...sometimes PA and/or AOKP roms do behave wierd...although i dont know and dont wanna blame it on a great rom cause these are mods of something that is not meant to work in ICS in a first place.
I can suggest that you try this zip instead http://www.mediafire.com/?2wtpgu0d6t57n1f it has mikey´s moded apk version6 ...or if you know howto rename it and replace it(make it a system app with permissions i tell you) i can give you just an apk file.
Folks please report does other roms have same issues...and i will be uploading new apk with instructions on howto...

Here we have my version of AOKP....
For any of you guys that have had a HTC device you will have more than likely heard of
IceColdJelly by LorD ClockaN
Well this is IceColdJelly but compiled for the Galaxy S4... LorD ClockaN has very kindly let me use his github... its got nothing else added yet, but I will be looking at adding more features as and when I can.... ​
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Code:
ICJ Build 1.5
AOKP updates
Added Notification Behavior
Updated Keyboard so it looks better in Dark AOKP
ICJ Build 1
Initial release.....
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whats Not Working?
You tell me...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU NEED CWM 6.0.3.3 OR LATER TO BE ABLE TO FLASH THIS ROM... OTHER RECOVERIES MAY WORK, BUT I AM ONLY RECOMMENDING CWM!
If you post in the thread saying you've tried to flash with the wrong recovery and it doesn't work correctly you will be publicly ridiculed for not reading the OP and for basically being a Muppet....You have been warned
1. Download rom ... Duh! and then Gapps
2. Put rom on SD card
3. Make sure you have latest Gapps on there too
4. Make sure you have recovery installed (The latest Official CWM is recommended... at least 6.0.3.3... look here for latest http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager)
5. Factory Wipe/Data Reset, Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache, then go to mounts and storage and format system
6. Flash Rom...
7. Some have suggested you have less issues if you let rom boot up before you flash Gapps... I'll leave that up to you
8. Flash Gapps
9. Some like to wipe caches again... If you normally do that, then do it
10. Reboot
11. Enjoy the Rom...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download the Rom Here
I've linked to the Slim Gapps as they seem to work best with the Dark AOKP feature...
Download the Gapps Here
Github Here and Here

Massive thanks to @LorD ClockaN for his help when compiling this and letting me use his github of course
AOKP Team
CM Team
DutchDanny - for getting me started and being patient with me while I was asking silly questions

Future Updates - READ THIS!
By providing this ROM I am not guaranteeing that future updates will follow. Due to limits on my time and the fact I have multiple devices I need to keep updated it isn't possible for me to continue providing ROM updates indefinitely. Please do not be under the assumption that future releases will be available (I don't want you to be disappointed!).

Nice going to try this now thanks Vertigo

So far so good! Nice and smooth!
Would it be possible at some stage to add disable hw button lights? Right now I have to use a script and then another program to run it at startup because cm kernel don't support init.d
Awesome rom! Would be cool of you could include the gesture unlock that is in your latest Pac Build.

If you put this file on /system/etc/init.d/ with perms you'll get an initsupport.txt file under /data and see that init.d works.
https://app.box.com/s/5ct52rshou552m9m0i9v
I'm not sure about the app you mentioned,it push an init.d file named testinitd with only 6 0 0 as perms (?) that attempt to write an initsupport.txt file under /storage/emulated/0/.
I can't really say about perms and the way is named the file,maybe it's ok with only rw- --- --- and no numbers as prefix but from my little tests with my own init scripts I can't get anything written to sdcard either.
Dunno I'm pretty new on this device maybe it's the way sdcard is mounted (its path but probably not as the same script works with script manager) on cm based rom or init.d process is too early for sdcard to be mounted but init.d works.
Going to try this

How to flash mods/tweaks properly
Code:
[COLOR=red][B]THIS METHOD REQUIRES YOU TO HAVE EITHER MOBILE ODIN OR PC ODIN[/B][/COLOR]
[URL="http://www.softpedia.com/get/Mobile-Phone-Tools/Others/Odin-3.shtml"][COLOR=#0066cc]PC ODIN DOWNLOAD[/COLOR][/URL]
[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899"][COLOR=#0066cc]MOBILE ODIN DOWNLOAD[/COLOR][/URL]
1. Download the mod of your choice
2. Download a safe recovery or Repack kernel (if you don't already have one) These can be found [URL="http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Devices/Samsung%20Galaxy%20S2%20%28Sprint%29%20%28SPH-D710%29/Kernels"][COLOR=#0066cc]here[/COLOR][/URL], make sure to grab a stock kernel in zip format while you're there!
3. Using the Odin method of your choice, flash your custom recovery
4. After your phone boots, boot into recovery by holding power and vol down simultaneously until the recovery screen comes up (EL29 Directboot makes this step unnecessary}
5. Navigate the menu to clear Cache and Dalvik Cache
6. Navigate to the menu to your desired mod and flash
7. After flashing is complete, navigate through the menu to your stock kernel and flash
8. Reboot and enjoy your new toy ;)

FAQ​
Q Where can I download and How do I install?

Q Are there any mods/tweaks available for this ROM?
A Yes, Just about any tweak pack will work. I recommend Comadose by Goddly. Grab it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2188416
Q How’s battery life?
A I see this question asked repeatedly across all ROMS. Honestly there is no way to give you an answer based on a ROM. There are too many variables in question and results vary from user to user and device to device. Battery life is going to depend on age and condition of your battery, your use habits with your device, installed apps, tweaks, settings, etc...
Q How do I make a nand recovery?
A There is a very informative thread created by Timmetal6669 found here
Q Where can I find the newest JB recoveries?

[Q/A&T][Public BETA] BDSROM-GB27 Boondock Saints​
This has been a long time in the making. Some of you may remember a while back when I first announced this ROM, (and some of you have never let me live it down *cough, cough, Ryan...) and I had had some issues with some of my testers not being able to flash. I then got busy and went back to school and long story short, I let this sit idle. Well, I'm back and am releasing this as a public beta. More theme than actual development, but it is what it is.
Included in this ROM are:
AIO mod v4.5 Please visit this thread for the 3minit download link also
Menu to Kill mod - Removed for now.
Custom Battery Icon by yours truly
Almost everything is themed through and through
Debloated a bit
360 degree Rotation - Removed for now.
Screen on when unplugged disabled - Removed for now.
Custom boot animation
Custom sounds
More features coming as time allows!

Attention: Please do not flood this thread with off topic discussion, questions about battery life, how to flash mods, kernels, etc... I would like to keep this thread pretty much set on the development of this ROM. Have an issue with something I made? Talk about it here. Feature requests? Here's fine.
For general ROM related questions, battery life experiences, etc... please use the Q/A&T thread linked in the OP.
Thank you:good:

Didn't sell it. Just not in my possession anymore. It stayed in the family, bro. I'm certain your rom will be put on that trusty device. Don't want to be cryptic, but I see no other way, as it's not my style, but I can assure you my phone will get an excellent second life, and your ROM will be likely be rockin' the house on it..
