[ACS][KERNEL][CWM Flashable] EH17Plus Rooted Ext4 Tweaked ***UPDATED 9/18/11***

Plus Version of the EH17 Kernel, rooted, bootanimations, and with my kernel, memory, and VM tweaks... also ext4 capable.
Also it has CWM Purple built-in so its ACS Updater Compatible, as well QuickBoot and ROM Manager..
creates a symlink from bootanimation.zip to sanim.zip, so no need to rename boot animations.
Updated 9/6/11***
Added a few new tweaks...
Fixed bootanimation symlink..
changed the script to not overwrite SU/Superuser.apk or Busybox in case you want to upgrade
Fixed the reboot recovery problem..
let me know what yall think..
thanks to qbking for testing

im wondering these questions too

yes init.d support.. its the same as eg22plus and eh06plus just updated with the new kernel...
you can convert to ext4 with rfs2etx4.zip or on a new install just format the partitions as ext4
and go ahead bake it into your ROMs

If its ok, id like to use this in the next version of starskyROM

rfs2etx4.zip bricked my phone... Backup even failed on me... Any chance i can use this in my ROM?
Edit... it's telling me i'm low on storage. ouch... Maybe it's my ROM, but i haven't changed that much.
Edit... Just reinstalled my ROM, and i lost root somehow? Will report back on this one...

ohh btw i couldnt get bootanimation.zip to work. i had to rename it to sanim.zip still

If it bricked your phone, you wouldn't have been able to flash anything else on out.

thanks for the clarification... I've apparently never had a bricked phone then.
Reboot lead to a stuck boot ani, and did so for more than 15 minutes... twice, so i booted back into CWM, and ended up installing my ROM... The second time it worked... Not sure what happened.

Has anyone been successful at converting to ext4???? I tried it with eh06 and soft bricked twice...before I Odin eh17 I wanna know if anyone has got it up and running....I really don't wanna lose my setup........again

Can someone pm me and give me instructions as to how I can put the stock boot and shutdown animations back in? I actually have grown to love them and I miss them already (I have only rebooted the one time after I flashed the kernel...).
Thanks for the quick and excellent work as always.

This is probably one of those "noobie' questions but if I understand this correctly, I can wipe data/cache/delvic cache 3 times - flash the rfs2xt4 zip - flash the eh17 kernel - then flash the hurricane rom - all in CWM - is that correct?
Question - assuming that is correct - can I restore data only from a previous nandroid backup which was made from the Hurricane rom before I flashed the rfs2xt4 zip to avoid doing new installs for everything? or does that void the conversion to EXT4? or I could just wait until it has been baked into the Rom - but then the same question remains? Can I run a Nandroid restore of data only after I have converted to ext4 ?

Some questions

Hi guys, i have a Galaxy Fit with 2.3.4 (S5670XWKQ3) and i want to put a CM7 ROM.
Btw which rom is the fastest and has good performance (games) ?
I have to downgrade to put a CM7 ROM or just install CWM and put the rom.

Well go yo the clockword mod recovery thread follow the exact instructions. Then put your cm7.2 file on your SD card and follow the instruction as stated by the op

Is it possible to flash from jellybean back to ice cream sandwich?
Say if I flash from a jellybean miui to cwm10 then cwm9 then miui ICS does anyone know if it will take or are the system structure too different?
Or just flash to ICS miui, just format system, caches and remount then flash, ICS miui
Or the only answer is to Odin to gingerbread and work my way up, again?

You have to go to stock...there is no bml (old file system format) conversion script at the moment

More specifically you have to use an external program like heimdall or Odin to repartition your device.
There is a link in the OP of cm10 for a Odin method with PIT (partition file)

Yes, I have done this. ( not with odin, only used CWM )
What I have found is from ICS you have to flash a GB rom, as in a new, fresh flash. Then if you have a backup of that rom you can successfully restore it thru CWM.

some questions regarding flashing roms

currently i am following the rooting tutorial by jaggy jags
my question is i am planning to install this sense 4 rom by derefas
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943775
why do i have to create "YOU NEED TO CREATE SD-EXT PARTITION BEFORE FLASHING 512MB MIN" ? for this rom and can i create this partion with the help of recovery
so i am currently on stock rom and will be rooting so Do i have to install some diffrent recovery to install this rom ? or the recovery A310E Recovery.zip will be fine
what about kernel do i have to flash diffrent kernel or the kernel is provided in the rom and if not then which kernel should i flash?
And if suppose i want to return to stock rom i found this link of stock roms http://www.mediafire.com/?qwr4n3phnfr4a
should i flash directly this roms to return to stock without unlocking the boot loader ?
And if suppose i made some mistakes and i am unable to acess the recovery is there any way that i can flash the stock rom ?
new to the Htc family coming from xperia
Thanks in advance

FD1999 said:
SD-Ext: You don't need, but it is recommended. And you are normally able to do so using recovery
The kernel is included in the ROM, no need to flash another one. But if you want, you can flash another kernel after flashing the ROM.
And installing one custom recovery is enough.

Use yanuo recovery ...
1. Create an ext partition of 1gb. With 0mb swap.
2.Run superwipe.zip
3.Flash the Rom
First boot will take about 7-8 mins

Ya . It reboots after unlocking the ring... Don't unlock the ring for 4-5 minutes...
Let it reboot several times... Don't go for another flash...
Wipe every single thing except SD fat32 partition.
Don't flash any extra stuff along with ROM in recovery.
And:
Create ext3 with mini tool not recovery itself..
