Hello ,
My last ROM problem was solved and I know have CM9 ROM .
But I noticed that the files on my sd card are still there ,and I want a Clean start .
I am used that they are deleted whenever I made a ( Reset to factory settings ) as I was making always before thinking to Root and make Custom ROM ,
I just wanted to know what would happen if I Made a ( Reset to factory settings ) from the settings menu ,
ofcourse I know my backup that I have on the internal card will be deleted but :
Will I lose the Root ?
Will I lose the Custom ROM and go back to the original ROM ?
The second question is , I heard before that I can share some space from my external sdcard to my internal sd card , is that really possible by any method ?
Sorry for long topic .
Any one ?
Search on the W forum for a thread by @pepoluan about 'pristine' wiping your phone....it will help you achieve the 'fresh start' that you want....and yes, unless you move your nandroid to alternative storage, you will probably lose it.
And as far as I remember, CM9 has the option to swap storage mounts which will allow you to use your external micro SD card as phone storage......
Find it by......
Menu>>settings>>storage>>menu>>advanced....
and then 'tick' the box against (something like) 'use SD card as phone storage' (it's been a while so I can't remember the exact wording)......

using reset to factory settings will not lose your root, afair coz i've used that b4.

when u install custom rom basically ur stock rom (original rom) is already erased, right? so i don't think it will restore ur stock rom, u can try it though
How do I swap the internal and external SD on CM9 ?

Thank you very much keithross39 and dec0der ,
I have resetted my phone without any problems at all ,
I just have another newbie question please
I see people talking about ROMs saying for example : CM9 EOL Honeyx Kernel
I don't inderstand anything in this except CM9 , But what is EOL , and what is Honeyx Kernel ?
I downloaded my CM9 version from the official thread here
I know it is written EOL in the Title of the official thread but I don't know what it mean ? and what is the Kernel ? and what name of the kernel I use ?
EOL as far as I know simply means end of line....which means the final release or no further development.... and the kernel is just something you flash on top of the ROM which allows greater control of things like processor speed, voltage etc. Flashing a kernel *can* have it's advantages, but it is not something you *have* to do......

Yes thanks I get it .
But from your experience is flashing kernel is as risky as flashing ROMs ,and do I have to also swap my files when installing it , and if I have a CM 9 . Can I flash any kernel with the name CM9 on it and not CM10 right ?( I am sorry but indeed I was very scared to flash ROM because of the too much talk about bricking the phone ) .
When you modify your phone there's *always* going to be an element of risk.....whether that risk is higher when flashing a kernel or not, I don't know......I've always stayed with the kernel that comes with my chosen ROM. To answer another question, yes you have to use a kernel that is compatible with your ROMs OS version. As for the storage mount swap, I'm fairly certain that this is ROM controlled as opposed to kernel controlled, so you should be OK....

Thanks keithross ,
So I think I am fine with just the CM9 and no need for other kernel ( at least for now ) .
Yeah.....you can always try a kernel another time....but do yourself a favor..... read as much as you can about every kernel you are considering before you flash it.....in the same way that every ROM is different, every kernel will be different and bring different tweaks to your phone.......

First of all it´s nice to see there are still such smart noobs like you who are posting their questions in the correct section. For this you deserve a 1+
About the rest it´s like keithross already said. First become familiar with your fevorite ROM. There is still time to test all the kernels out.
All the custom kernels are supposed to incrase battery life but also have some other tweaks included. Most of them are very similar because they are using a lot of the exact same tweaks like for example the ones for battery. However there are always some differences like the amount of added tweaks.
This is because all the Developers do have slightly different priorities to what is important to tweak. Some devs are more conservative and just adding the tweaks that are really important in his opinion and are also known to work properly with all devices whereas other devs are more openminded to add some new tweaks.
However this doesn´t mean some of them are better and some of them are worse. It´s just like that. One and the same kernel can work very good on one SGW whereas it may cause some problems on a secound SGW due to the included tweaks. Therefore it´s also good to have such a wide-spread variety of custom kernels, so everyone can find out which of them works best on his device.
People should start using Google.
Go to this URL and press 'Ctrl+F' or menu button then find on phones.
Type Kernel and discover things you never knew. As keithross said, research on these kind of stuff before you flash em.
I honestly learnt mine from here but you are free to use Google.
If you use the second link, ignore any talk about sbf. Its Motorola related.
Special thanks for all of you keithross , honeyx , and idelta ...
I think I have been very familial with the CM9 and I will be reading about your kernel honeyx very soon , I want to try it first one
Thanks again

What Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 really is? It is Cyanogen for Noobs Mod based on CM7.1 RC3.0 for gio. Yes like its name, it designed for easy and very user friendly purpose. The basic idea I build the latest CM7.1 RC.3.0 ported by phiexz (as I think it's already final or likely will be no more update) and compiled it with the all good things here covered almost all the potentially frustrating common issues to make it as stable as it can be for daily uses basis. I do some few mods but may slightly unnoticeable. It is not a custom-rom. I didn’t change the interface and such. I just want to keep it as original as the origin. The most noticeable thing I did may just enabled bootsound. The rest are minor (but of course important!). OK, let put it simply now all you have to do Just Flash and Play*.
*still there is a pre-condition and some optional follow up action below
Here some features Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 offers:
• Latest port CM7.1 RC.3.0 with the all working features (credit to phiexz & squadzone)
• preinstalled gapps (credit to Msiiek)
• avoid false reformatting sd-ext by cwm-recovery issue when flashing (credit to waqasshahzad1986)
• enabled bootsound (customizable ready)
• fix split screen issue
• S2E ready (no need to mod or reformatting sd-ext partition again)
• avoid potentially market causes reboot issue
• avoid potentially installing application causes reboot issue
• use market 2.3.6 as a default (but still updateable and offer you more optional action)
• fix some other minor common issues
• just flash & play
• noobs, start your 'en-gio-ne'! and say "eat my dust" to your old migraine!!

HOW TO INSTALL
WARNING: Dragons Ahead!
But don’t worry the dragon has been tamed. Even dragon is still a dragon, so still don’t be careless & follow the instruction carefully.
First, make sure the pre-conditions fulfilled:
• have any GB 2.3.3 or upper on your device (or any CM7 rom).
• Already made sd-ext partition on your sd-card (and make sure don’t ever let cwm-recovery touch it reformatting again!), recommended use ext4, more over if want to activated S2E (optional). Don't know how to create partition? Go to mr.waqasshahzad1986 section first, believe me he is your best guide here.
• Have cwm-recovery 5.x (recommended px-cwm or px-cwm-v2). You don't have any yet? Please visit mr.phiexz for CM-7.1 RC-3.0 & cwm 5.x section where this rom originally ported.
• Downloaded Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 zip file copied onto your sd card.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 here:
Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1.zip
Installation:
• Just Flash & Play!* via cwm-recovery 5.x (press & hold Home+Power button to enter recovery mode)
*no need to wipe or mount anything, install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sd card > CyanoobsMod-7.1.3.1.zip > Yes-Install
• And you just officially 'noobed'! (I mean you already have Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 on your device).
*always recalibrate your battery after flashing any rom!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
easy right?
Optional follow up action:
1. Market
If you want to keep market 2.3.6 as your market and don’t want to get any updated, open terminal emulator (pre-installed with your CM7) and type this:
su
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that will disabled your market updater, but you still can enable it anytime if you decided want to get updated. just change the “disable” type to “enable” with the rest script are still the same.
recommended!! do this as soon as possible after flashed before you got updated automatically. if you already updated just uninstall the new market at "setting>applications>manage applications" and hurry type the script or you can activate flight mode so you will not get updated.
You can ignore all the things from the beginning if you want your market soon get updated (you will get your market updated automatically as long as your internet keep active)
2. Activated S2E (sd-ext ext4 needed!)
• Download S2E from market
• Open it and open its menu, setting, checklist all.
• Buffer size value better leave it as default (there is a chance S2E would repel the partition if set more than 256KB)
• Back, open menu again, choose reboot (usually it won’t reboot at your first time, so you may reboot it manually).
• after reboot open S2E again and checklist all (recommended leave the "application data" still uncheck, but you may check it if you want ap2sd extreme activated).
• open menu, choose reboot again (at this time it should be worked).
• and yes now you have your CM7 with S2E activated.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can ignore all the things if you want try any other app2sd like link2sd (even I think it ported optimized with S2E).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Issues:
• There’s a known bug on gio that it can’t be helped. Cwm-recovery have a habit to reformatting your sd-ext, but it does not format the card correctly on gio. It may not harm if you not using any app to sd-ext things (S2E/link2sd/ app2sd/… or etc), but it does if you do. That’s why I warn you to avoid cwm-recovery ever touching your sd-ext (ex:wipe/format/restore/...etc). Just format your sd-ext partition into ext4 only using your computer. If you want to do any recovery backup-restore things better use any other apps, like Titanium Backup maybe (sorry it may just my limitation, hope the other dev here can help us there).

Notes:
• As it actually designed for noobs, please be wise to use it as it be. Please, don’t try to do silly things to your rom. Don’t try improvised things that some thing to do with your rom like modding or added tweaks. It may ruined your rom (conflict tweaks caution) and please don’t blame me for that. Customize it will be very welcome as long as not touch that area.
• Sure advance users will always have privileges to do sort things (with notes they knew well the risks. sorry noobs, i'm not being double standard here. i'm a noob too anyway). Feel free to have a try my rom for test its stability sir… your reviews would be really very very appreciated.
• Please ignore some grammar error as long as you can understand me.

You're right after backup it will format ext anyways so all this rom is useless untill new cwm because you still need to use card reader but maybe you can restore from cwm excluding ext partition I dont know anyways I use titanium to backup ext ofcourse maybe Im wrong?

Flash kernel and it will see your partition it helped to me
Sent from my GT-S5660 using Tapatalk
guys i learned & did some little test about gps setting n tweaks... my self conclusion about it gps is very so depend on location (ex:like the country where we live)... it's hard to generalized the issue... some specific setting/tweak can be optimized on some specific location, but can ruined on the other specific location...
so far i have no problem with the current gps, so i just leave it as it is (with the thoughts it's the best default setting)... i won't counted it as an issue as long there is no report so far...

yeah guys... actually there is "an issue"... not with the rom but the s2e itself... (sorry, actually i'm new too to this s2e things)
sometimes there is a chance s2e repel the partition if the buffer size value set default changed... so better just leave it as default... i''ll edited the s2e activation step...
oh yeah u can try some custom kernel from Delanoister, use the kernel for CM-7.1...
Heyy Can Someone Help .. Everytime ii Download Something From The Market It Downloads But When Installing It Reboots The Phone, This Happens Everytime
Its Aa Great Rom But Cant Cope With This Fault
You need to make a partition on your SD card.
Read how to do it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25587346&postcount=53
Swap Size?
Do Uu Know What Sizee Thats Meant To Be?
Thankss
....
ii Clicked On 126 On The Swap Sizee And It Still Hasnt Fixed It??
Still Reboots When Installing Anything
....
Sinse ii Havee Partitioned The SD Then Flashed The Rom
It Now Says When Trying To Download ..
"Unable To Download 921"
you need to select 0 swap size.
...
ii Will Try That Now Thankss
....
Noo That Still Hasnt Worked
go to CWM recovery>advanced>select size for partition(512mb should be enough)>select 0 swap size.
now wipe data/cache and then install your rom again and check,it should be working fine.

I might be wrong but check that resetting any sizes doesn't give you an extra partition,you might be creating multiple partitions by doing this?
Also if you have used custom mtds then you might need to increase the sizes from previous values due to this rom being larger!!
I had no problems using mtds 240 40
SD ext 256mb 0 swap.
[ sig ]
" using my thanks as likes/thanks "
I dont think resetting sizes would give you multiple partitions,because every time you create a partition,the SD card gets formatted and that must remove the previous partition.
Very good rom
Hi, i am using this rom for two days now its fast.its nice,I made it even more fast by using v6 supercharger ,may be it can help u guys also.and i have a request if u can make a sense 4 htc one x themed rom.and may be use Phoenix launcher in the current rom .it gives u a better ICS feel to it.plz consider it,thank u for a very nice rom.hoping to see more....

you made it faster by adding yet another script tweak to go with the handful of them already in this rom!! I think you are seeing the placebo effect of these tweaks,I removed all the scripts and tweaks and modded a few things manually and it ran just as fast for me afterwards.

hi,now because you are "new to this" is the reason I am not going to guide you,your probably best just using "as they come" roms until you get used to experimenting. that's all it is... just experimenting by removing/adding etc etc,reading up in all threads,trying this,trying that if I just come in and tell you what I did then you don't learn anything and my tweaks might not be to you or others liking. just make sure you do your nandroid backups prior to changing anything and that way you can fall back to a working rom if you go wrong. regards slym.

if apps are force closing wipe cache and data after flashing.
I have taken things from many roms and developers. None of these are my property. I just combined them to give a stable rom.
I need your feedback and tell me how it is working

What to do after flashing ?
1.To enable themes create a folder named theme in /data/system using any root explorer( very important for themes to work)
2.use exdialer instead of stock dialer (exdialer already in rom )
3.to use alternate launcher open milocker app and go to settings and go to lock home key option and do as mentioned in it.
4.for more themes add .mtz files to MIUI/theme in sdcard
5.Add at least one contact else your messaging app will forceclose

Pardon my ignorance, but what is MIUI exactly ? Another custom build of Android, just like Cyagenmod is ? What are its fundamental differences compared to Cyanogemond ?
edit : wikipedia's description provided me with part of the answer, but on what basis should i choose your cyanogenmod our our miui ports ?

Thank you. For my needs, stability is more important than the UI. According to the description of both of your ROMs, the Cyanogemnod port seems to have less bugs. Can you confirm that ?
First of all, thank you for this great effort
Could you provide us with a step by step guide for flashing this please?
last time I did something wrong with ODIN and I cost me dearly!

Flashing:
1.Flash a Gingerbread rom (not if you already had)
2.go in to recovery (phone power +t)
3.Format data/cache (delete all user data)
4.Flash Miui (or other Rom) (install zip from SD)
5.Reboot

Ajay, I think you must have heard it a lot, but you are great genius!
Thank you for making this rom. There are two rom 20120919.zip & 20120919-deodexed.zip, Which rom is better?

Depends, if you like modifying your rom then go for deodexed otherwise go for odexed
or you can search "the difference between deodexed and odexed" in google for better understanding (there i give you the keyword)

deodexed rom will take more space from the internal memory
since our phone have less internal memory its better to use odexed rom and also odexed will be faster
since our system memory is also less it was hard to odex it. that was why i uploaded deodexed rom.
our device is very poor

Yes, you can overclock this rom upto 806 mhz, bt I recomanded you to overclck 729 mhz, more than 729mhz sometime it rendomly reboot...
Also use No frills CPU Control from playstore for overclocking...
Thanks
Sorry for bad english..

I say overclock it for about 15-20% which I think is the safest for such low frequency device, anything above it as stated will cause instability.
Hey guys,
This is my first thread...
So i got my Gio in april of this year, rooted in juli, flashed CM 2 days ago (did nandroid backup), and i think im ready to flash a new rom.
I have been searching on XDA for quite some time now but i can't seem to find a propre version of CyanogenMod 7.2.
I saw phiex (or what is he called again) thread and that version looks good but the thread is closed and his download link is dead.
I'm looking for a verry-stable ROM.
Does anyone have a link to the download / better version / suggestion for another ROM?
Also, i heard nandroid does not include the kernel... How to get back to stock kernel again if u need to? Just plain ODIN flashing?
When a flash fails and your phone is bricked. Will CWM be able to restore it?
I read somewhere Samsung has a binary counter to see if your phone is flashed to check if your warranty is still valid. Does Gio have this? Forum said you could see it when going into download mode, but i didn't see it when i checked.
If something happens to the phone (like when battery can't live without charger) and you have to send it back to Samsung, is it possible to remove all traces of root and flashing? How?
The apps2SD in CM, will it move all data to SD-card or is it like in the stock rom. (because internal mem is a serieus problem on Gio)
Last question: Will CM affect the market? I mean will you be able to download Temple Run for example, wich is not possible in stock.
Sorry for the huge amount of questions... :/
Who wants to help this flash-noob?
Thanks in advance,

-Install cm7 by marcin1147.
Its very stable.
-If u want a fast stable beatiful rom try MIUI GB by frankin96.
-If u want a new android version install latest cm9 by erikcas.
Its completely working except camcorder. Ics 4.0.4
-BTW for memory problem use link2sd. Its the best way to move all user apps and data to sd-ext.

LOL erickas cm9 laggs like hell I use CM9 by MaclawStudio and for memory problem use s2e better than darktremor and link2sd
I'll look into those roms.
MIUI does look nice, indeed.
I used Link2SD before btw and it wasn't all that great.
My memory filled up even with everything that could be moved moved to my SD.
Thanks guys!
Use Marcin his cm7 or Phiexz his cm7. Phiexz one is a little bit outdated but works great (his website is down).
Use a script for more intern memory like Amarullz ad2sdx script or CronMod-INT2EXT+ or intext4 if you have an ext4 partition on sd ext.

I've had great experiences with Link2SD. The only problem I had was that at some point Facebook wouldn't install, stating there wasn't enough memory. That was with about 65Mb of internal memory free...
A bigger problem was all those apps gobbling up CPU by apparently keeping stuff running in the background, which slowed things down considerably. So at the moment I *do* have apps installed and most of them are moved to the SD using Link2SD, but I don't have *too* many apps installed.
I use link2sd. Before i used S2E but experienced heavy laggs even with most stable rom though link2sd is good enough I have free 115 MB left in internal memory good enough for me.

Really? Wow cuz i didnt do anything much. Made a partition using cwm then downloaded link2sd created ext2 mount script and finally linked all my apps to sd

-if you want go back to stock rom you must flash it with odin. nandroid backup doesn't work with stock roms because of different filesystems. and yes nandroid includes the kernel.
-when you softbrick your phone you can still arive the download mode. if it's an hardbrick your phone is dead (i am not sure if this is correct)
-the binary counter is only in the high-end phones like s2
-dont use app2sd. link2sd is the best
-no you cant download temple run. but its not rom related it's cpu related. temple run needs an armv7 cpu but our gio only has
an armv6.
you can download and install all apps which are available for stock rom on custom roms too...
i hope it helps you a little bit
sorry for my bad englisch
For me democrazy rom was the best cm 7.2 rom I ever used... untill now, recently flashed cyanmobile official, also has cm- settings and more included and I think its the least laggy rom I ever expirienced. Both roms work flawless with cronmod' s int2ext+ script.
My experience is that GB based roms always outperform ICS or JB based roms. With holo launcher you can add some ics style and features to GB without performance loss

Correct me if im wrong, but can't you just flash a rfs formatter and perform a nandroid backup afterwards?
Won't this work?

yeah cm7.2 by marcin is very stable... it has no bugs and it's very smooth...
try it here is the link cm7.2 by marcin
i am using this rom for months and i am very happy with it... thx marcin :good:
I think CM 7.2 by Marcin is stable and speedly rom. But cm9/cm10 is more smooth(but some bugs, for example non-working videorecording e.t.c...).
PS when developers release a stable build of cm9/10 then this rom becomes the best rom much ever
PS sorry for my bad english

I'm using JellyBread v2 now and i really like it, but the battery gets drained so fast...
I installed JuiceDefender but I didn't notice any changes.
I also don't want to underclock (think it's called that way), I like the performance as it is now.
The way it is now is okay, when I unplug the charger in the morning at 100%, I come home with 16%. (with some gaming on the bus)
But if I don't go home directly... Yeah...
How to save battery on cm-based roms?
PS: Brightness is almost at lowest level and I always turn off wifi.
hi,
i have successfully rooted my ARC S phone & installed Super Jelly Bean by Harsh586 (thanks to him). i would like to know how do i increase the size of the 400mb internal memory (i have 16gb micro sd high speed card inside my phone). also do i need to install ClockworkMod Recovery since i already have fusion 5.4 installed ?
last question can i install themes from google play because i'm not really big fan of the stock jelly bean theme.
for themes i think you can use a launcher that support themes like go launcher... just search in play store...
for internal memory http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2162233&highlight=swap
use the search of the forum and you will get all your answers..
its what i usually do

i understand that the answer sometimes is a bit hard to find but they appear..
i was checking the Change Log of fusion 5.4 and it as cwm already on it!! so i think you can enter in recovery as usual pressing the back button..
i´m sorry but i´m in stock kernel i can´t help more on that..
don't forget to do always a backup before do risk things..

you are right & i did get into recovery i created 4GB partition but how do i find it ? its not showing in astro file manager in the DATA forlder !! is there any other way to find this folder ? my memory card gone for 14GB to 10GB which means the partition was created then i installed Lnk2SD & linked it to ext2 . did i do something wrong by selecting ext2 ?
Maybe you can check to see if you did something wrongly:

is really easy to make a partition work, but you have to see if your kernel and rom supports it!
just follow the threads that i have mentioned above and it will be alright..
i never tried jelly bean roms, only ultimate hd and i think that in overall its a very nice rom, fast, stable, good for games, good camera, and supports partitions...

i have just changed the kernel from fusion 5.4 to fxp216 so i can use a patch to get the camera to work at 720p. i will see if i can find info on this kernel in regards to partitioning.
