What kind of answer is that? Either say something useful or keep it to your self.
Ext4 is a filesystem, usually used on linux systems.

DrHonk's Test Phone Tracking#

This is the tracking number that the UPS Store provided me with when I dropped the phone off on June 1st @ 11:55AM.
1ZX80W510369841963
Now the guy told me that DrHonk should receive it on Monday.
EDIT: K... it JUST showed up in their system. Weird.
You da man, lucky! Thanks for doing this!

So generous of you, thanks from me, and everyone in the community! This big contribution will benefit us all, and hopefully will make drhonk a very happy person
without this i think the development for our sgs4g would have stopped awhile ago.
thank you for doing this!
thanks a lot for doing this lucky!

Where was that said, and I don't think that its easier it just allows a higher delay of allocations which in turn gives great performance, maybe they are saying that because once we get ext4 this phone will good "good enough" to Dev on

Repartition?

HEAR ME OUT PLEASE! OK I have a Captivate, we have figured out the unbrickableness of our phone, and even have nexus s bootloaders working on there, fastboot, CWM, and even OEM unlock... Now to the real question, does the Nexus S ever get Repartitioned? I ask because the only reason we can't run your ROMs is because the Partition Table is whack compared to what it needs to be for Nexus S ROMs? Any help appreciated!

What exactly do you mean? Do you want to know if we've figured out a way to repartition the NAND to allocate more memory to the internal memory from the sdcard?
If that's your question then the answer is; no, not yet, but when I get free time I want to look into that more. There's a topic about this right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314146

No I'm Repartitioning so that the Nexus S ROM will work, so the ROM is installed to the directory that it is supposed to be... no need to reallocate memory! As I said we have gotten all the way to 'Nexus S bootloaders>fastboot>fastboot OEM unlock>installed CWM for the Nexus S!

This can go up to 1.6 so I heard..no need for that,risk is not word the reward..battery life fast drained and overall killing life cycle too fast..
1.2 or 1.3 are a good tradeoff

I wasn't able to keep mine stable at 1.6, and at 1.4 it had occasional freezes. It's all based on your phone, everyone's is a little different. I think with the newer roms overclocks are too much and you should stick to simply undervolting, although even the undervolts posted here need some tweaking for each individual's phone, as they caused my phone to freeze.

With any rooted kernel you can use Tegrak Ultimate (Its a paid app, but super cheap for how well it works) and Overclock/Undervolt
Edit: My statement purely applies to our phone, as Tegrak will not work with all phones, and I'm too lazy to list all the supported phones.

on your SD card there should be a file named tegrak. Inside is a subfolder "Overclock" Put it in there. Now in Tegrak you can choose this profile inside the profile tab.

You know it's kind of better imo. I am indifferent towards the new interface, since there is almost no loss in functionality. Everything is still there, just stuff moved around. But they did rewrite the kernel, which is now like 25% smaller and makes stuff run a lot faster.

The update does include some lightning zap tweaks (battery life, smoothness, and permorfance).
But the ROM already has several tweaks written in to it which you can turn on/off. For now, by default, they are set to NOT run. However, I plan on changing that soon.

I removed the sounds on purpose... It's not in my plans for this ROM. I'm tracking the dps issue... It didn't crash on the tester v12.9 so i will be looking in to it deeper when i have time...
Yes there is really testers from version 1.0 to 12.9. Some of you may not remember, but this is the ICS Mutt project...

Testing all these ROMs are bound to start giving some people Gremlins So don't forget to format system(each flash), cashe (each flash), and do a factory reset every once and a while. That way we don't pollute the alogcat results with Gremlin problems instead of ROM problems.
