[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 ?

A bit confused any help? New i9003

Hi,
have a new phone, i9003 here. Now i am a little bit confused what is todo to have a good beginning.
What i do:
- flashed XXKPE
- flashed XXPH
- rooted XXKPH
- installed ClockWorkMod from Skin1980
I read a bit over lagfix and CF Root. Is this a Kernel? I flashed the ext4-format.zip with ClockWorkMod and then Phone is not booting anymore I do reinstall KPE and then KPH and is working again, so any help what i should do next would be great. A lagfix would be nice or you have any other suggestions.
Greets

flash KPE
flash KPH
flash Skin1980's Cf-Root 05/09 thru odin - includes root, cwm and more
make a nandroid back up
start flashing roms that u like, then themes, mods etc etc

If you only want ext4 then you need to do a nandroid backup (cwm recovery backup) > install ext4 (do not reboot!!!) > then restore backup.. you will now have ext4 partition.. but i think skin's cf root will automaticaly convert it to ext4, but i'm not sure.

For EXT4 Conversion, Follow the guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185362

For KPH, try Cranium or DarkGenMod or Nexus ROM. They have good responses
You dont need EXT4 conversion for custom ROM's..They have everything in them!

Ya correct..nowadays, all custom rom has built-in ext4 there..so no need anymore.. ext4 only for froyo..read skin1980 thread..

Actually ext4 for froyo is the one being used to partition ext4 in GB.

is this phone memory or sd card conversion to ext4 ?
I'm bit confused too because what I know is to convert sdcard to ext4 and became phone memory.
Since I used many custom ROM, what actually ext4 do in GB ?

[Q] Need help

My P3100 falling into water ...
its booting ... i have installed cwm 6 touch, blackhawk kernel and dark fantasy rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212582) ... I cant boot into recovery but not in rom system
stock rom working ... but no custom rom
What can i do?

Try loading AOKP, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1892049 its an easy flashing process unlike the other one. Make sure you do a full wipe before flashing!

[Q] custom recovery interface with microusb microsd reader

I've never used a phone without a microsd card. It's pretty useful to be able to flash a rom from a microsd so that you don't need to keep your working copies on the device all the time... they take up alot of space.
Do any of the custom recoveries support reading off of a microsd card reader?

TWRP supports USB-OTG. I'm not sure about CWM though as I haven't used it for a few months now.

[Q] Revert to Stock M Kernel

So, i'm now using Hells core kernel, and i want to revert it back to stock kernel, because it seems doesn't have doze
So, what i'm gonna do is just fastboot flash boot.img right?
No need to wipe dalvik, cache and data right?
Sorry for such a noob question
