No fastboot on CDMA.

so cache is used for market downloads? I do most of my app installs via ADB anyway but good to know.

It works fine. Cache is redirected to data via the CM.zip installer's verify_cache_partition.sh file

And what's cwm3?

And yeah there's no working fastboot for BravoC

clockwork mod 3. I think the big thing it has is support for ext4.

OH thanks Too many abbreviations lol.

And do you mean ext4 as a replacement for yaffs? Or as a sd-ext fs?

[ipfreelytech]

mostly ext4 as a replacement for yaffs but I think it would do both. I really don't know much about it, i just saw a couple of posts about it a while back.

Where is the setting to enable am pm for the clock

[ipfreelytech]

go to settings and time and date settings, then check "use 24-hour format" afterwards you will have no need for "am/pm".


the actual display am/pm option isn't there yet it seems.

i don't think, if free space on cache is less then file size download should fail

2nd try here

THIS IS COMPLETLY UNTESTED ON CDMA BUT WORKS FINE ON GSM

this is an unofficial App2SD
CyanogenMod do not officially support a2sd, but i made an init script for it (very cutted down version of Firerat 857byte)
Only move /data/app and /data/app-private on SD, if u already have app installed on your /data they will be moved on SD
what u need:
1) CWM3
2) One EXT[234] (ext4 is recommended, ext3 works fine too, ext2 is not recommended because lack journal) partition on SD with "sd-ext" label (without quote)
3) data2sdext-signed.zip  

the "sd-ext" label is automatically added by cwm3 when u create a new partition layout but if u already have sd-ext partition just add the label.

from "official" cm7 nightlies run:

adb shell e2label sd-ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

or open a terminal and write

su -
e2label sd-ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

or on cwm3 (should work on cwm2 and amon ra)

adb shell tune2fs -L sd-ext /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

to what type of download are you referring? a browser dwonload? a market download? or some kind of rom manager update download?


I thought cache was only used for installing OTA updates, making it worthless when using CM since you do updates by flashing a zip in recovery.

Does this provide any kind of performance boost? or is this just for storing apps on sd card?

i mean market and browser download
test can be easy, fill cache and try to downloading something from market

a2sd is just for storing apps on sd card
desire do not have much space for app, this can help to store more app on your phone

[ipfreelytech]

my cache is set to 2MB and I just downloaded several apps from the market each >2MB in size... so I am confused.  Additionally I once downloaded a 700MB iso file using the browser...

Sweet! I wonder if it's functional on the BravoC tho. . . it would provide some decent performance enhancements afaik.

Interesting design decision. I didn't notice that when I was running it. (I have to backup all my stuff from my CM6 that I'm still running here)

Don't worry about the cache partition size. Everything works good without it--simply because it's redirected to data by the CM installer's verify_cache_partition_size.sh

The highlighted section made me lol

Anyway, unless CM7 gains a lot of size in weight (which it won't), your cMTD settings will be fine as they are. Just remember to run Firerat's boot patch after every install

There isn't. I assume he was on the CDMA forums mistakenly.

I don't know if gingerbread the file system is different but froyo doesn't have the problem since it is blind mounted.

i think to know it

i'm doing some test for a better partition layout for gsm and when i filled up cache all download fail
verify_cache_partition_size.sh was not made for this thing it check /cache size and "enable" system dalvik cache to /cache/dalvik-cache or /data/dalvik-cache
but my device have a bigger. This is an unexpected consequence but sames to be useful, i have something to check
thank's for report
