how to set swap??

-Backup your SD (To a FAT32 drive, then you won't face that "Name too long" error)
-Reboot to Recovery
-In Recovery, Navigate to "Advanced">Partition SD Card>Select EXT Size>Select Swap size : 256MB & partition the SD
-Now, go back to Clockwork Recovery home, connect your device to your PC via USB
-Navigate to Mounts and Storage & Select "Mount USB storage", then restore the backup>unmount
-Start your phone, you might have Swapper 2 installed. If you don't have it, get it from the Market...
-Open Swapper 2, press the Menu button>Tap on Settings
-Make sure 'Run swapper at startup' is ticked
-Tap on 'Swap Size' & select 256MB
-Go to 'Advanced preferences'>Tick 'Use Swap partition'>Tap on 'Swap partition' & make sure it's "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3"
-Make sure 'Recreate swap file' & 'Reformat swap' is ticked
-Go back to the app's home page & tap on the "Ads off" button>tap on the "On" button
-If anything fails tap "On" again
-If everything is OK, restart your device
-Open Swapper 2>Press Menu key>Info & check the Swap size... It should be sth like 250032 KB

Swap enabled! :D

hi am complete noob when coming to this?! i have cyanogen 7.1 gingerbread 2.3.5 and dont know how to enter recovery mode please help !!!! want to get my optiums flying along :)


There are 2 ways, you can long press the power button when the phine is switched on, and select reboot then recovery, and it will boot to recovery.

Or when the phone is switched off, hold the home button while you switch it on, and it will boot to recovery.
