Firerat Mod
Want more memory? Don't have a class 6 sd card to use apps2sd? Well then, use firerat mod!
1.)Download these files
RecoveryDownload
Boot put these files onto the root of sd card
2.) Make a txt file in your root of sd card and name it mtdpartmap.txt
3.) inside mtdpartmap.txt, start with 182 4 (and go down AFTER you do every step and, see how it does with your rom)(see if it doesnt bootloop)
4.) Boot into recovery(assuming you did a nandroid backup)
5.) go into mounts and storage and wipe data,cache,boot,and system.(Obviously do not wipe sd!)
6.) flash the recoverydownload file
7.) redo step 5 then go to advanced and reboot recovery
8.) Flash all of the roms,gapps,kernals,etc.
9.)DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP!!!!! FLASH THE BOOT FILE
10.)Thats it!
(when flashing a new rom just full wipe with step 5, then do step 8 and 9.)
*Just reflash the recovery to get rid of firerat mod
kernals
phone too slow even with rooting? STILL after a custom rom? then go ahead and try a custom kernal! (i know there are too much custom mods ) first go to one of my links and get a kernal(theres probobly only one link) i use deca's brainfuct which i noticed was a LOT better than decafuct(for me) so, here are the steps *no wipe necessary
(first get a 691(mhz) kernal then see if everythings ok, THEN get a 768 uncapped kernal if you want some speed)
1.) first put the kernal on the sd card.
2.) boot into recovery, then flash the kernal (wipe might be necessary if having problems... i dont know what to wipe so DonB, help would be appreciated.)
3.)you're done!
4.)enjoy your awesome, even horrifying speed!
