How do you flash without root? Just curious.

see post 1 the instructions are right there

im gonna try this when i get home. seems easy enough for a noob to do.

My thoughts exactly.
Dude its a phone not a full on computer... slow down. More swap won't do that much to help if your actively running that much stuff

HaHa... I kno right. It was slow today at work. So I wanted to see what this mamajama cud do.

 

[mrbigv770]

so if you type free in shell or terminal you are seeing swap used up to the 200mb level?

you can open the 55swap file and edit the size there (in the /system/etc/init.d folder)

OK I checked the emulator. The phone is eating up my internal memory and only a 1/4 of SWAP is being used.

It won't use all the swap, that's why it s pointless to increase the size. If you increase swappiness it will use more of it . But it should be fine where it's at... look on the market for " ram booster

I know this is a dumb question but i want to make sure. Will this work on LG Optimus V?

No

The correct answer is hell noo... only if you want to turn it into a paper weight... but luckily Mr bobo has a script in his Rom that makes sure your on the right phone before it actually starts flashing

So I got bored earlier and decided to try something... I removed swap and my phone ran smoother. So I figured with swap gone to go to shins 1.6 oc kernel and my phone is now like lightening.

You talked me into it, Im flashing this thing now. I hope I'm not sorry. But I was going to do a wipe of everything anyway sd card included. So may as well go ahead with it now.

I searched this thread but didn't see any definitive solution to the low in-call volume. Did I miss it? Is there a tried and true solution yet??
Thanks!!

I'm a sorry bitch now!!! Major freeze ups, I shoulda known better, but curiosity got the better of me!!

Probably from still having the swap enabled

I was tryna edit the 55swap file in init.d, but um I didn't see a swappiness level to edit...just the file size. Am I missing something?

Delete the 55swap and replace with this

Malfunction indicator light?!?!? Little automotive humor
But I have never heard of it

In the moto we call it the idiot light

Finally got a file transfer, flashing and rebooting. Im only going to try the swap file deletion and kernal flash once!!! Plus I'm making a nandroid back up. I can be a real dumbass sometimes!!

 

[Tigatron]

Glad your making progress.

Yea I've forgotten to make a new nandroid thanks for the reminder

Ya I tried the oc kernel its awesome. I did a quadrant benchmark and got 2757 compared to stock n00b V which is 2102. If it wasn't for the wifi sleep issue I would keep it. But I like having trust worthy wifi.

Don't be so hard on yourself. It takes patience. And lots of repetition. Ask anyone how often people mess up with this stuff. Its not a big deal considering you were able to flash it over again by yourself.
