[ROM]Cdma Desire Froyo Sense 2.0 xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC2 [8/20/11]

I meant to post this earlier but feel asleep. I would like to thank the team here. Mainly loph for getting me to do it. Any way to the caution/screenshots.
Caution this rom uses a new format unlike any other rom. Which means it requires a ext partition. If you do not have one it will not boot and/or install. To see how to do one read the install section.

I've been asked of the performance which can be seen by clicking show
Short video of features and look. No it doesn't lag that bad blame it on the not so good desire gpu:
Known Issues:
Mms needs put in manually use apn manager or apn restore from the market. For carriers that has issues with uscc sense base I may need to release packs to fix it.
Mms has a small limit (Fixed in Rc2)
There is a force close about some sound blah blah on boot. (Fixed in Rc2)
Calling voicemail or anything that requires dialing numbers using the touch pad doesn't work. You need change audible touch tones to long under settings.
Verizon branding in dialer. (Fixed in Rc2)
I replaced the old market with the newest. It seems to cause issues for some people. I even got it. You may get a fc or where downloads say paused/won't download. This seems to happen on 3g though may happen on wifi. If it does go to manage applications clearing data for the market & market updater. Reboot where it should be fine.
Known Working:
Apps2sd+ No flashing zip required.
Cmtd with no cache issue.
Usb mounting of sd-card (Checked windows and linux)
Wireless Tethering (Checked windows and linux)
3g/data
Camer/Video Camera
Htcsense.com
Skins
Ui sounds
Music/Video
Gps
Wifi
Sms/Mms
Syncing with gmail, etc...
Things Removed:
Mainly just the verizon apps
What is Done/Added:
Dodexed to allow themeing
Optipnd'd almost the whole rom
Prerooted
Init.d support
Busybox
Nano
Bash
Apps people may not use or updates moved to data (AdobFlashplayer, AdobeReader, Facebook, OiFileManager, Gmail, Maps, Myspace, QuickOffice, Street, YourNavigator and Youtube)
Darktremors apps2sd+ with dalvik to sd-ext on boot disabled
Able to be undervolted now (Uses almost the exact voltages of my vork kernel)
More govenors now (PowerSave & Interactive)
Default scheduler changed to Cfq
Perflock on boot disabled
ZipAlign on boot (First boot will be sort of slow as it checks and zipaligns apk's. From then on it remembers what ones were done and only zip aligns ones that have been installed)
Screenstate scaling of cpu to save battery life
Build prop tweaks to conserve battery and increase speed
Ram optimizations to futher more conserve battery and increase speed (Do not run a task killer it will only mess it up. Multitasking should greatly be increased.)
All system apps moved to ext partition (This allows of live wallpapers and wallpapers to be kept with out hurting for space)
Some other things were also moved to ext. For a explanation on why this was done. Check the why dalvik was left internal with no data2sd.
Market cache for downloads mounted to ram upon downloading and installing. Once installed is is automatically deleted. Which means the only sense rom with 100% working cmtd.
Cmtd setup and fully working.
Before I forget reboot options (Reboot, Reboot to recovery & a few more)
Probably forgetting some stuff also. Once I remember I will update.
Why the rom was done like it was with no data2sd or dalvik moved:
Ok the rom was done like it was for a few reasons. One was for increased memory. Two was for speed. Three was for no dead sd cards. Followed by 4 was to help battery life. With that said we go to data2sd. Data2sd works by moving the data partition to a a sd-ext partition. There is a few different versions. Real data2sd kills cards quick due to reads and writes. Kali's data2sd is a knock off of darktremors apps2sd+. It moves the data/app and data/app-private to sdext. Same thing as darktremors apps2sd+. Darktremor's apps2sd packs more features from zip align, memory tweaking and other things. This should not cause lag like claimed. What will is enabling dalvik-cache to ext. Kali's doesn't support this. So kali's data2sd or darktremors apps2sd+ with out dalvik moved will not be that hard on a card at all.
Now with dalvik moved in darktremor's it causes lag and major read and writes to the sd card. Due to it moves system dalvik. Anytime you open a app or do something it reads and writes to the sd card. This causes battery drain and bottlenecks also. So what I did was a better alternative, since dalvik moved frees up space but causes lag. I left dalvik internal, moving system apps and a few other things to ext partitions. Then creating blind mounts. This allowed me not to remove anything like before or enable dalvik. Yet give the same free space 240mb to be exact. So you get the speed and space. Best of both worlds right?
The other thing is with anything sd-ext. Sd cards have a number of limited reads and writes. Some fail sooner and later. It just depends on the card. With that said the process done is very easy on the sd card.
Files to download:
Caution do not download via the android browser. You will get a 5kb file.
xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC2: Click Here
Install instructions:
1. You need to have cwm 3 or above to install this. For working recoverys that will work with this rom check here Once you have that proceed.
2. Follow this step if you don't have a ext partition setup (If previously using apps2sd or data2sd you should have one. So please skip to step 3.)
First you need to back up your card sd card. This means mount your sd card on your computer, creating a folder. Then copying the contents of the sd card to the folder. Once this is done reboot phone into recovery. Once you do that go to advanced>partition sd-card. Pick you sizes for your partitions. I use 1024m/0m. Once that is done reboot your phone.
3. So once booted back into your rom. Copy the files you backup back over. The open the xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC2.zip. Extract the contents to the root of the card. This means the sleeksense folder should be in the main directory. Along with the mtdpart text file in the root. If you had one before please replace it. Once done reboot to recovery again.
4. Go to Install zip from sd card>choose zip from sd card>xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC1>xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC2-recovery. Once installed go to Advanced>Reboot Recovery. Once recovery reboots it would be a good idea to do wipe data/factory reset. After the wipe is complete proceed below.
5. Go to Install zip from sd card>choose zip from sd card>xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC1>xFuZiiOnZz-HD-RC2. Don't freak on the long install time sense hd is long. If you get no error set and wait. Once it installs and prompts you to reboot. Do reboot system now with in recovery. Now it will take a bit to boot the first time. First boot will be a little bit it will set on the white and green htc screen. Around 3 mins or so. You will then see the htc boot animation where it will also set. Allow 10-15 mins to first boot (After first boot it will not be as long booting) Now if 15mins have passed and you still aren't in the ui. Then redo the above steps for flashing the rom. No need to reformat the card. Just make sure you do a full wipe.
6. First boot will be a little bit it will set on the white and green htc screen. Around 3 mins or so. You will then see the htc boot animation where it will also set. If it booted in the ui. Follow the setup wizard and wait for sense to load.
7. When you call your voice mail or a number that use button presses to select menu's. It will not work. So to fix it go to Menu > Settings > Sound > Feedback > Audible touch tones. Change it from short to long.
For any problems you encounter, have a question or anything else. Please post them at the following link: Click Here or post in the thread here. Be warned it may take me a few days to check it.

I am sure I am probably forgetting someone so if I am then sorry and I will add you.

running it now. great job

Thanks Once I get the later miui ported and the merge port fixed. I will tweak a bit. Then fix the minor issues.

I thank you for that. But it doesn't need a mirror I host it myself. Where I am honestly unsure why you put it on a mirror. Been nice if it would have been asked if it were needed.

I had a little bug this morning where I couldn't press any of the buttons in the drawer. I had to flip around the screens for a while and came back and they worked. I've noticed there's a little lag in the ROM as a whole, like the ROM is too heavy for the CPU or something. It's not major, just a little annoying. Also, I can't seem to pull up the skins browser in HTC Hub. I can use everything else (Scenes, Ringtones, etc) but not skins. Of course it's the only one I actually wanted to use
Other than that, fantastic work as always.

Reports from the other dev's that is trying to help me get 3.0 on the cdma desire along with 3.0 on the merge is that the the skin part of htc is buggy and does the same on phones that have come with it. Along with in the ports.
Even then that would be on the bottom of the list to even fix. As for the lag is it doing it worse as it gets lower on battery by chance? As for it being to much for the cpu 2.0 is more optimized than 1.0. With that said it doesn't lag near as bad and more snappy on our phones.
This was also reported on the merge froyo port. I just glanced at your post and seen you wanted to use the htc skins. Where I am not sure right off what all is on it for skins. But skins found that is for 2.0 should work fine.
Edit: As for your odd issue I am unsure. You are the first to report this. I have had a report of lagging in vid's from 3 people I think it is. Report of the g-sensor not working that a reflash fixed. Then the last was signal bouncing around.
As for all the issues the girls desire has been on this since I ported it cept to do the port of miui. Which I restored the backup of. No issues that I have got or heard about. Trust me I would hear about it The lag in vids I am not sure if she has watched any and I haven't checked. So that would be the only one I can't confirm.

I had to flash back to my stock ROM, this one was just being too weird. Usually around 7:30 pm or so, the data and GPS will just flat out stop working and I have to reboot to get it back. I didn't try toggling data, but it's a hurdle I'm not willing to jump right now. I really wish this worked out, I liked the ROM otherwise.

You could have tried a reinstall or a prl update. But I know that is not the case with the rom as the girls has been running this since I ported it. Where data and gps has worked in the rom since I loaded it.
You also aren't the only one running it where the others the only issue found now is lag playing videos.

link to download unless expired? You can reupload

Been waiting for A Rom like this for months on CDMA!! Thank you Sir!
Only issue I have come across other then a Force close here and there is the Laggy Video
when streaming, Netflix, HulU, Youtube. Videos i have on my sd card work fine! THANX AGAIN FOR YOUR EFFORTS !

Download link was just down due to moving files around. It should be up now I think. I will have to check if the right link is there.
As for the lag video I get it on recorded vid's by the stock cam. Known issue and when I get to it I will try to fix it. Right now I have a few things on my plate till I get caught up.

Are you going to be updating this? Laggy video gets annoying

I don't think this rom will be updated, but both 2fast and coolexe are working on Gingerbread Sense 2.1 roms for the CDMA Desire... you might want to hold out for that.

This is a major issue. No one seems to know much about this phone and there are no posts about it as well.
Folks who has this phone, I am curious is Google Talk Audio & Video Chat works on it or is it possible to install it. Please let me know. Also, does the Video Call work properly? & Does it come with a microSD Card?

It comes with Google Talk, but I don't think its for audio/video. For audio/video it comes with Qik Video Software. Also it comes with 2 GB of Micro SD card. But its internal storage is very less, just mere 150 MB, I just installed few software, and its full. Even moving Apps2SD card won't help, as the software setup are backed on internal storage.

Well, I think for the features this phone is offering there would be limitations somewhere. I am going to buy this phone for my mom so that we can Video Chat. I could not find any other Android based phone at this range that offers these features. So I think we might aswell just compensate for the storage. However, I was really looking forward to having the Voice & Video chat on GTalk itself...
How is the phone otherwise? How much did you get it for? Is the battery life as good as it is promised? & let me dig around and find a way to root it... I do not like the default junk that comes along with it. Unfortunately, the devs are more busy with highend phones :-D

A fully charged battery went completely discharged overnight. I don't know what happened. Only Wifi was on, but there was no Wifi available.
Also the charger is complete junk, charging by plugging it in a computer charges much faster.

Oooo.. that's bad.. Check what has been using the battery... Or change the WiFi sleep property.. That should help.

Yes, the internal memory is way too less. I am trying on ways to use SD Cards for storing apps by making it an EXT4 and other modification but no luck so far.

Poistive - Looks
Negative - Low memory. Slow UI. I upgraded from Galaxy 5 but seems like should have gone to a much higher end phone.
Anyways if I can get that extra memory, I may be content.

Yups, if Wifi would be ON and there would be no Wifi available, it will consume more battery as it will keep on searching for networks to connect.

Someone needs to root this and port the gmail with voice & video on to it.. I am sure this device is perfectly capable of supporting it.
If it could work on my Xperia X10 which does not have a front cam.. I am sure it would on this.

Lets see. I have started digging into things with 2 priorities.
First and foremost being rooting it.

Moto Fire XT530 Rooting
Hello folks,
There's a One click root for Motorola 2.3.4 Gingerbread devices, if that doesn't work you might have to wait to for a developer to start working on the phone as it was just released like a month ago.
Give this method a try and post updates.

[APP][4.1+][ROOT] User Management - Simple multi user helper

User Management
Dropbox link - While it's available on Dropbox, I'd really prefer it if you would use the Google Play option, as it help me keep statistics on device usage, and allows you to send error reports in case of problems
As recently discovered, Jelly Bean contains experimental and unofficial multi user support.
I've written an app for rooted Jelly Bean devices that allows anyone to use a simple GUI interface to do the following, without even touching the command line:
Create a user
View list of existing users
Rename users
Delete users
Switch to another user
The Primary user can be renamed, but not deleted. I disabled its deletion as it near-bricks the device, as detailed here (along with fix if you somehow manage it).
There is a donate version as well, but I won't be linking to that as it seems to be against the rules.
NOTICE: The SD Card permissions are required to rename the users. I couldn't find a way to save to the file system, so I read the user's file using the cat shell command, edited it with the new name, saved it to the SD Card and then used the cat command to overwrite the initial file. It's hacky, but it works.
I'd appreciate it if you could try out the app, perhaps buy it if you like it
Comments/suggestions are always welcome
As of now, the only way to switch back to the Primary user is if you hold down the power button and select the Primary user from there. This is because root access does not persist for any app, including Superuser itself across different accounts.

FAQ
What commands were used?
All were executed in a # (root) shell
To create a user (leave the quotes in if the username being create has a space. Single word names don't need them):
Code:
pm create-user "user name"
To delete a user (replace <user-id> with the user's ID):
Code:
pm remove-user <user-id>
To list all users:
Code:
pm list-users
To switch to another user (replace <user-id> with the user's ID):
Code:
am switch-user <user-id>
To rename a user:
There is no command for this. I used the cat command to read the user's xml file (/data/system/users/<user-id>.xml) into a string array, replaced the user name, saved the file to the SD Card and used the cat command again to overwrite the original file. To reboot after the rename I used:
Code:
reboot

What could come handy is setting profiles for personal n General usage, most people use various call hiding, media hiding apps to hide personal stuff, the ideal way will be to unlock the phone with two patterns at the screen lock level, one pattern unlock for general profile the other for personal use where your personal call logs, media for gets unlocked automatically, there's an app call switch me, but it requires rebooting which is not practically usable

This is really not what the app was designed for. This app was meant to be a simple GUI interface to try out the limited multi user support without having to go to a terminal emulator or adb each time you wanted to do something like create or modify a user. The features you request should be implemented by Google themselves, as they likely will be in upcoming upgrades, and not by a third party app.

Any other comments/suggestions from anybody?

cool app

Good job brotha!

Could you show a screen shot of the final build main menu (the user selection screen)? Does this show up when you first boot up your phone/tablet?
Thanks!

The third screenshot does show the user selection screen. You can tap on any one of the users, and a Context Menu shows up allowing you to rename, switch to, and delete that user.
Here is a screenshot of the menu:
This app does not start up on boot. Once booted, you must manually use the Primary account to open the app. This is because the app is simply meant to allow you to create and manage the users without using the terminal with a nice GUI, not attempt to replace or provide functionality that can only come from Google.

One suggestion: Landscape mode

User Management
As recently discovered, Jelly Bean contains experimental and unofficial multi user support.
I've written an app for rooted Jelly Bean devices that allows anyone to use a simple GUI interface to do the following, without even touching the command line:
Create a user
View list of existing users
Rename users
Delete users
Switch to another user
The Primary user can be renamed, but not deleted. I disabled its deletion as it near-bricks the device, as detailed here (along with fix if you somehow manage it).
There is a donate version as well, but I won't be linking to that as it seems to be against the rules.
NOTICE: The SD Card permissions are required to rename the users. I couldn't find a way to save to the file system, so I read the user's file using the cat shell command, edited it with the new name, saved it to the SD Card and then used the cat command to overwrite the initial file. It's hacky, but it works.
I'd appreciate it if you could try out the app, perhaps buy it if you like it
Comments/suggestions are always welcome

Sure. I'll push an update with it in a few hours

You may want to look at UserDetailSettings.java in the Settings app for the package manager code to enable/disable apps per user.
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Settings/+/jb-release/src/com/android/settings/users/UserDetailsSettings.java

Not sure if it's easy or not but your app driven by a nfc tags open some interesting scenario like when i give the phone to my wife and she say: "oh, what a mess my iphone have few icons..."
or a shared phone usage for team ... or something like the chamaleon gui that when I arrive at home i switch the user from the profession usage to the private ones. Should be nice.
Is this doable?

Yes. Both of these are doable. However, this isn't the purpose of the app. Though considering the amount of requests I've received for such features, I'll be making another app that does all this and more very soon.

So other than creating/naming etc is there any functionality like choosing apps/restrictions for accounts at this stage?

works as advertised keeps all apps from primary user on the guest accounts they just don't see any info becuase its like just installing them. Good job.

Well, @bradymobile did post a link to the source code of a User Specific Settings screen a few posts back. However, this appears to be in accessible from the normal Settings menu, and so I'm currently looking for the correct intent to open it up. Beyond that, you can use Nova or Apex as the launcher for the guest user(s), and hide all the apps you don't want to be visible there.

on latest cm10 the user management app doesnt seem to be able to gain root. In fact, even superuser isnt granted root once you switch to an account other than the primary. suerpuser denies itself and the user mangement app.

This is because apparently root doesn't persist across user accounts. The only way to switch back to the primary account is by using the power menu options. I haven't quite figured out why the root won't persist. It happens to all apps that need root.

that is interesting. i would ask if the superuser permissions have changed upon switch but obviously you're not rooted so you cant tell. Following closely so god luck and thanks for the dev!

[Tutorial]Speeding up your phone and increasing efficiency

If you don't want to read this detailed guide go to the
SHORT VERSION
Hey guys as the title says this is a tutorial on how to make your phone faster more efficient and just all round better. To do this you'll be using a series of apps in different ways that all mesh together brilliantly. You don't have to do all of these tips (chances are your probably already doing one) but I'm sure you will find something that makes your smartphone experience a little (or alot better)
Everything here has been tested by me and has been confirmed to be working on my SGY
This will work on all android phones but is better for low-end ones
Also this tutorial doesn't require root but it works better with it
Links to every app I make reference to will be at the end of the post
Lastly I tried to include things that people wouldn't otherwise have done known or thought about that's y it doesn't have things like flash roms or kernels anyways now that that's out of the way let's begin
1. Install a launcher
K installing a launcher will speed up your phone assuming it's not 1 of those full featured launchers like Go launcher or ADW those will actually slow it down what I'm taking about is one of those stripped down launchers that at the expense of features,speed up your phone an example is a launcher like HOLO launcher I'll put a link but I think it'll be better for u to just search for 1 since you might not necessarily like it this brings me to my second tip
2. Moving launcher to System Memory
*Needs Root*
You're launcher is your most frequently used app your gonna have to be seeing it constantly so it only makes sense to place it on your system memory to speed up your experience you will need an app called link2sd then all you will need to do is select the launcher your moving hit actions then convert to system app you'll then have to reboot but if you don't have root just move your launcher to internal memory
3.Manage Apps that start at boot
K well this is 1 of the big ones (not so big if you have a faster device but still good) to do this you'll need an app called startup manager simply what this does is give you the ability to control which apps launch at startup this is GREAT for both low and high end devices since you can add or remove apps that start-up thereby speeding up or making apps that previously didn't startup, startup lol it's particularly great if you have alot of apps installed and if you have a phone with a low ram slow processor combo then by now you've probably experienced the phenomenon known as startup crashes where you turn on your phone it boots up and boom it crashes and this just continually keeps happening until about a half and hour later it boots up properly the reason this happens is because when you turn your phone on every app that needs to startup on system and internal memory boot up no problem but then comes the media scanner and now every app that's on your memory card tries to boot up which is a much longer list and your processor can't do this in a timely manner so your really small RAM gets overloaded then android starts offing apps in an effort to settle this while mess but that's only a temporary fix since they will still restart anyways android can only keep this up for so long before the inevitable crash this situation will only keep getting worse as you install more apps which need to startup at boot so anyways upon installing this app and going through the lists of apps that startup at boot you'll see a lot of unnecessary apps that don't need to startup at boot it will depend on you but some examples are
Tapatalk and XDA
These only need to startup to give you notifications as soon as your phone comes on so those are a no brainer
Messaging apps
Facebook,Whatsapp,Viber,Voxer,kik basically any messaging app they start at boot to give you notifications when you turn on your phone but that's kinda unnecessary cuz if you do in fact need notifications to these apps after u boot up u can simply open the app and the process which gives you notifications will stay in the background and wait for more notifications to come these apps alone can take up a boatload of ram Facebook is like 20mb whatsapp is like 10 viber is like 20 and I think Voxers around 15 kik like 15 that right there is like 80mb that's enough to crash your phone right there (if u have a low end device) and those are just rough estimates
Others
Other viable apps which can denied startup access are apps like Color Note and greader which I have absolutely no idea y they need to startup your list will obviously differ from mine just use your discretion it will depend on u an example of this would be for me dropbox I only use it to upload some files I want to share with people whereas the main purpose of to be able to automatically upload your files so they'll be available on your various devices but for me that obviously means it doesn't need to startup and be lurking in the background just ask yourself y does a particular app need to startup depending on the reason you'll know what to do here's some screenshots of apps I left enabled and 1s I disabled

You can also use this app to stop system apps from starting up but be VERY CAREFUL if you stop the wrong app from booting up you're phone won't even boot up the only ones I stopped were
Email
which is responsible for you sending emails
Samsung Home
Which is the launcher u get with creeds which I don't use
And
Walkman
Which is a music app your get with the ics trans theme from Creeds which I also don't use
Anyways according to the dev he says this works without root but works better with it I don't know about the differences in functionality since I'm rooted but I assume it'll work unless he is lying
Freezing Apps
*Needs Root*
App Quarantine is the app you'll be using
K this will require root by the way well anyways when you freeze an app it can't do anything it can't access system resources it can't stay on your RAM it won't even show up in your app drawer so this can be pretty good but problem is most applications have this as a secondary feature (link2sd titanium backup) and to access it would mean opening the app waiting a long time for it to load up searching for the desired app this long process limits the apps that you would freeze so I did some searching to hopefully find an app that did freezing and defrosting via widgets eliminating the need to enter the app this would mean i could quickly freeze an defrost apps so more apps could be frozen apps like messaging apps that I could freeze if I'm not connected to the internet or if I didn't want to talk to anyone apps like keyboards I don't use our even 1s that I use I could just freeze it when I don't need a keyboard ,my text message app if I didn't want texts or data managers which keep running even when I'm not connected or dropbox which keeps running in the background though I just use it to share files with friends below is a screenshot of examples
I also at a time had the launcher that I don't use (Samsung home) frozen but have since defrosted it since startup manager stops it from starting and as long as I don't open it the app won't run in the background and its always good to keep a backup launcher just in case
Linking Apps
*Needs Root*
-Skip if you have large internal memory-
Okay were on linking apps to sd card to do this you'll need to partition your sd card using a PC app like mini tools partition wizard or just use cwm with your phone am just gonna briefly explain the CWM method
KEEP in MIND THIS WILL ERASE ALL YOUR SD CARD DATA
So make sure to back it up onto your PC
1.Well first you'll CWM (duh!) or the skin of CWM for galaxy y owners and an app called link2sd installed an well an sd card
(See end for links)
2.Now that you've got everything above completed
Turn off your phone and boot into recovery by pressing. Skip the next step (step 3 if you don't have a galaxy y)
volume up+ home+ power
3 You'll see a menu to select and scroll you use home (for selecting) volume keys for moving up/down select apply update from sd card select the cwm file now you'll see another menu come up
4. Scroll down select advanced then select partition sd card now you'll see a menu come up
5.The menu will contain sizes these are the sizes you can partition your sd card to you can select anything up to 1gb (1024Mb) of storage keep in mind that in this storage will not be able to store anything but apps that you linked using link2sd
6. Now you'll see another menu come up titled select swap size now select 0mb
7. Now hit reboot recovery then reboot you phone
8. Open link2sd your suppose to see a menu come up select ext3 then reboot and now your suppose to be able to link apps to your sd card to do this simply open link2sd select an app then select create link
If this didn't work for you
Google doing this with mini tools partition wizard
Or if you didn't understand my explanation Google doing it with CWM
I didn't go into detail because this had been discussed already over and over again
Anyways how this helps its that the read write speeds of your memory slow down the more they fill up and since many apps use your internal memory to store files this will speed up your phone by speeding up how quickly they read/write those files also when your phone's internal memory is almost filed (20mb remaining) everything just goes haywire you're phone slows down it'll stop you from receiving messages and you won't be able to install any apps linking stops all that another benefit of linking is that the apps u linked can't boot up when you turn on your phone immediately they have to boot up after link2sd mounts the second partition meaning your apps on internal memory boot up then alot of sd apps boot up then link2sd mounts the 2nd partition and apps there boot up and the remainder of sd card apps boot up by booting up this way it means they're no clogs or places where your processor is to slow so your RAM gets overloaded this may seem like a convoluted way to boot up but it meshes together great
Startup kill
K this 1 is more of a complimentary process to do this you'll need advanced task manager k this app is a task killer but quite frankly I think task killers are useless since if your on froyo (2.2) or up tasks you kill just start back up again but that isn't what I use this app for what I use it for its startup kill which at boot kills a lot of apps freeing up some RAM for a while allowing some apps to load them eventually the killed apps load and all its right with the world
After I did all those things minus using a stripped down launcher (I like my launchers customisable) my phone boots up waaaaay faster I haven't experienced a single startup crash and my phone just operates all round better hope this helps someone
Seeder
*Needs Root*
-You'll need an app called seeder-
Okay let me start of by saying there is alot of controversy surrounding this app some people say it does absolutely nothing and is simply a placebo effect that people are seeing others say it does absolutely everything and speeds up there phone quicker than quick anyways from what I understand android has to constantly produce random data for apps to access pool of random is only do large so when an app or game that requires alot of this random data is opened lag is present as android fights to produce random data fast enough what this app does is increase the size of the random data pool allowing more to be available which hence solves this lag problem honestly I haven't noticed any big difference but u can try for yourself
(See end for links)
Original Seeder Tread
Zipping Apks
I don't know about other file managers but ES file explorer can install an apk that is within a zip file this means that u can store all your app apks in zip file to save space u can either store them in one big file or if u really wanna save space store them individually to do this simply tap and hold a apk them tap compress
Quick tips
I noticed that if you freeze a keyboard and reboot that the keyboard doesn't show up in locale and text and the only way (that I found) to get it back is by unfreezing and rebooting so if anyone knows another way I'm all ears
I also noticed that linked apps can have widgets but when you reboot your phone they disappear
Keep checking your memory by going into system settings> applications> running services this will give you an u idea of what's running and how much RAM it takes up I use this every time I set a live wallpaper to see how much memory it takes up I also use it to see what apps to add to my "freeze list"
If your just gonna be using advanced task manager for startup kill make sure to stop it in running services when you turn on your phone the process is only 3mb though but it's 3mb you could be doing something else with
Here's how to create a widget for app quarantine
1.Tap and hold on a blank area of the home screen
2. A menu will come up select widget
3. A menu will come up now select App Quarantine
4. You'll see this
5. Wait for that to finish loading then scroll down and select the app u want a freeze/unfreeze widget for
6. Put the app in place and simply tap if you want to freeze or unfreeze
If an app doesn't show up in the list when trying to create a widget for app quarantine go into app quarantine and freeze it then try again to create the widget it should show up now

Install a launcher
Installing a strip down launcher like HOLO launcher instead of a full featured one like GO! launcher or ADW can really speed up your device
Moving launcher to system memory
*Needs Root*
Your launcher is your most frequently used app so moving it to your faster system memory will speed up your experience to do this you'll need an app like link2sd then all you will need to do is select the launcher your moving hit actions then convert to system app you'll then have to reboot but if you don't have root just move your launcher to internal memory
Manage apps that start at boot
-You'll need an app called startup manager-
With this u can manage apps that start at boot and remove unnecessary ones some examples are
Stop Apps like
Xda
Tapatalk
Facebook
Whatsapp
Viber
Voxer
Kik
Those need to start-up to give instant notifications on boot this is unnecessary as u can simply open the app to receive these notifications
Then there others like
Color Note
And greader
Which I don't know why they need to start-up
Then some may depend on personal preference like for me
DropBox
I only use it to share files with my friends so it doesn't need to start-up
Freezing Apps
*Needs Root*
-You'll need an app called App Quarantine-
Frozen Apps can't access system resources this is great if you know what to freeze with this app you can freeze and unfreeze via widgets
Examples are
Messaging Apps
Could freeze if I'm not connected to the internet or if I didn't want to talk to anyone
Keyboards
I don't use our even 1s that I use I could just freeze it when I don't need a keyboard
Text Messaging App
When I don't want texts
Data Managers
Which keep running even when I'm not connected
Dropbox
Which keeps running in the background though I just use it to share files with friends below is a screenshot of examples

titanium backup on android 11 and media storage 11

It's been more then 6 months, and the developers behind titanium backup still have not excluded media storage from being backed up in android 11.
When you try to back it up, it never completes. If you force close titanium backup, and try to open it again, it never finishes opening. And you gotta reboot your phone so you can open titanium backup again.
This is a known problem and because of this, I can't use the schedule task that backups up newly installed and updated apps as it doesn't use the filter I've set to exclude media storage, and tries to back it up.
This was mentioned first on here in September 2020:
Titanium Backup - Android 11
Has anyone else tried backing up all the new "apps" with TB? I installed my wife's P3 (upgrade with flash-all minus -w) and have no issues at all except that media storage "app" will not backup. It never moves and even after 30 minutes of...
forum.xda-developers.com
And here are the changes made to android 11 that seem to cause this:
Storage updates in Android 11 | Android Developers
developer.android.com
It's unbelievable that an update to exclude media storage on android 11 automatically has not been released by the titanium backup developers.
And yes, I did purchase the pro version.

Agree, many of us have the TB Pro and haven't seen an update in ages from them!

Is there an valid alternative to titanium backup pro?
Which is still actively maintained?

That's strange, because it works for me: I have made a label, added all the apps to it except Media Storage 11 and created a scheduled backup adding this label, and the backup procedure will correctly ignore Media Storage and skip it.
The only drawback is that you have to modify the label adding newly installed apps to the list whenever you install a new app on the phone.

Btw: I switched to Swift Backup Premium and am very satisfied with it.

Try this
Copy TitaniumBackup folder on root of storage →
In Titanium → menu → preference → backup folder location → select Storage provider file system (click here) → selectDocumenProvide storage → it will open file explorer, set root of Int storage - and then select allow.
Now click on "detect" and select that showing backup location.

Any updates on this issue since June? Did the one workaround of copying the folder to the root do anything?

Starting to feel like TiBa has been neglected. Found this thread on Google and was disappointed to see that nothing happened since it got posted.

Hi @DBuffon Could you give a little more detail on how to create a 'Label'? did you mean to create a new Filter and unselect Media Storage 11? I've been experiencing those 'hangs' on LOS 18.1 (Android 11) where schedules which worked fine in TB now hang on 'Media Storage 11'. I just made a new Label with everything but Media Storage and I will see how it goes.

Same here, I've been a loyal Titanium Backup supporter since its beginning many many years ago like way back to when Android was still 2.x version.
TB has evolved into a must have tool ever since to migrate from phone to phone, it's too bad it has been neglected since the last few version of Android OS.

Not sure what you mean by "root that app is handled with." Canary Magisk is the only root that works on 11, and I wasn't even on the beta 11.

Hello,
ran into the same problem and didn't want to abandon TB.
The filter discussion led me to a working solution (on LOS 18.1):
1) Menu-Filter: on the bottom create a new Label and only add Media storage 11.
2) Check reverse/exclude labels
3) Save filter
4) Edit your schedule task and select the filter created above.
Works like a charm for me...
Good luck

If it really _starts_ with backing up Media Storage, then maybe you missed point 2? Did you reverse the newly created label? (Medienspeicher11 only labels/contains Media Storage 11)

Why would you still want to backup with Titanium on Android >=11 anyways? I just had a full loss of my data partition and restoring with Titanium on Android 11 was a nightmare: Maybe for a third of the apps it still works like in the old days, but for another third data restore doesn't work and you have to reconfigure everything again. Even worse, for the last third, the apps don't even start, for many of them clearing data didn't work, they still wouldn't start. I had to completely uninstall und reinstall them.
Bottom line was: It would have cost me less time to just reinstall everything manually. And TB was not able to restore much of the settings (like user accounts, BT connections etc), but that has been the case for quite a while.

Yes, I have exactly the same problem. And I am restoring from the exact same rom where I backed up from. Will try the alternatives given.
