. I also changed to MIUI player or the android 4.1 music [its just simple install the apk only thing].

is dsp manger compatible with android 4.1 music

i need dsp mostly because it improves the volume which is too low in blade

Will have to check it as i dont have Android 4.1 installed using MIUI player

. And yes DSP Manager should be universal .
 
Does TB Pro support one click restore ?

I meant I have "N" number of apps and I back up that N number of apps . Now when I am flashing can I restore those "N" number of apps by just one click ?

I had replied to this query of yours earlier on this thread. Yes, you can do this using the 'batch' option in the TB Pro settings menu.
 
Guys has anybody changed the partition layout....

1. is it worth the risk

1.its no risk at all if you follow the steps properly.

2.user data of the apps are generally stored in the phone memory AFAIK .

I have around 60 apps installed on my mobile , it takes 140MB of my internal storage and no lags what so ever .

One more thing....

is it permanent ...i mean one time procedure...

so next time i flash any other custom ROM the partition layout will be intact?

2. Which is better

link2sd / darktremor a2sd / s2e...

googled like hell regarding this....

but couldnt get a satisfying explanation....

i found link2sd to be the easiest...and latest (jan2 2012)

1. yes it remains intact

2. give all a try and then suit your needs . I am currently using a2sd script . On CM7 S2E works just great without hassles .

Follow this guide and install

custom Gen2 215 v10 (md5:dba6a95c0bc33333a6c04e87ca4b380e)

[font=Verdana, Tahoma, Arial,]This partition layout is necessary for most stock ROMs and for early builds of ICS/CM9.[/font]

[font=Verdana, Tahoma, Arial,]So problem solved and with an sd-ext you can enjoy all your app space

.[/font][font="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial,"]I am using this layout only , And i suggest you avoid that windows tool , if you want to partition on your own then learn hex editing and edit the partition mbm yourself

Thanks for the links . I might do this also over the weekend

It's better to stick to the stock Dell 2.2 partition (160MB Internal memory) now because the upcoming ROMs based on CM9 and ICS will need it. If you plan on sticking to the GB ROMs forever, then go ahead with the partition layout which has 294MB internal memory and 160MB ROM.
 
My stock was 200mb only . Dont know why but my blade came with gen2 android 2.2 and 200mb /data . I was searching for the same layout ever since

guys how does partitioning help?
Click to expand...

It totally depends on your type of use ... if you need or try a lot of apps then re-partitioning helps in reducing the cache , OEM , system memory and uses that space as phone memory . The layout depends on the type of ROM you want to use .

For example a ROM is of size 100mB , you install it on /system which is of size 150mb so you have another 50mb free which be unused . So by re-partitioning you reallocate this 50mB to be used as the phone memory thus it in a way increases your internal storage .

NOTE: A bigger ROM wont fit in a smaller partition.
 
Alright so what i understand is that it allows us to allocate the rom for more internal storage. i would also like to know how will it help in the process of frequent rom changes. or does it just help the internal memory management. Sorry for so many questions, I'm new to android and blade is my first phone.

Well initially TPT was done to get the unlocked bootloader that will utilize the extra 256mB of RAM that was locked . TPT flash is done to upgrade the baseband or the amss.mbm like Gen1 can be converted to Gen2 and Gen2->Gen3 and vice versa . So apart from these 2 reasons and the more internal storage there is no added advantage of doing a TPT.

Now when you are cycling through ROMs the "/system" will only matter in accordance to the size of the ROM thats it . So choose wisely which type of layout suits you and will be future proof . I always tend to keep more of /system area as it eliminates any type of size restrictions while switching roms.

Yeah better to wait for cm9/aosp4 ROMs....

who knows what will be the size modifications in the upcoming releases
 
Ohhhhkkk... well did seem to understand quite a bit, but need to google the rest. Thanks bro for the information. Would like to befriend you incase i screw-up with my blade. I love to experiment but the knowlegde just seems naive in front of the users using it since long. Darn me, stuck to my nokia so long that i forgot there was a new world called android
