Important information!

Please read this information so that there are no unnecessary problems and questions.

This is a firmware theme forsmartphoneExplay Tornado. The tablet has its owntheme.
Before flashing, check the charge level of the device. During the firmware through the PC, the cord should not go away. Try not to touch the smartphone or the cord during the firmware at all.
Think carefully before you start to flash your device. In case of an error, you can lead the phone to "brick" (break).

Be prepared that on custom firmware you may encounter additional errors that are not indicated in the description for rom.

A bit of terminology.
Root- special account, superuser. It is necessary in order to expand the functionality of the Android operating system. Some programs require superuser rights to work.
ROM (firmware) - This is a set of hardware settings and software that is located in the flash memory of the device., roughly speaking, a complex of memory and OC on your device. In our case, the smartphone comes on Android 4.4, using a flashing method, you can make yourself a trendy marshmallow.
Stock ROM- official (factory) firmware supplied by the manufacturer.
Custom ROM- modified firmware, modified by third parties.
Recovery- A special mode of loading your device. It is loaded most often with the combination "Volume up" + "Power". To install custom ROM requires custom (modified) recovery :)
Wipes (make 4 wipes, etc.)- cleaning of certain sections. In detailshere

Connect the USB cable, select (MTP) or (PTP) and wait for the drivers to be installed.
Run iRoot
Click "Check connection ..."
Click "Install ROOT" and perform the steps that the program asks you.

Is there no usb debugging in the tornade ?! I did not find.
Can I try without it? Who knows??((

Gps works without problems, I do not know what you have for defective smarts

Hello. I often sit in a contact group about our phone, and there many are faced with a problem before flashing the phone, that the PC does not see it.
If you had the same - then just hold down all 3 physical buttons - and the computer will see the phone. Good luck to everyone in the flashing.

[porhanov]

two init.d scripts that add swap to system and data
extension / .zip / remove and put in system / etc / init.d
busybox must be installed
98swap_system_v300.zip(9.22 KB)
97swap_data_v300.zip(9.21 KB)

swap can be checked by the program from the terminal emulator market with the command
su
free

porhanovIs swap an extension of the RAM or not?

[Bless me, father]

Do you know that the tornado is already swap by default?

Do you know that the tornado is already swap by default?

suspicion is there, but the principle of operation is not clear
more details, please.(preferably chew)

SWAP is specialsectionon disk orfile(SWAP can be placed on a disk partition or in a file) in which the operating system moves individual blocks of RAM in the event that there is not enough RAM to run applications (Virtual memory is intended for the rational distribution of RAM between user and system processes)

swap.swp-in the system is missing, does this mean that the body does not usefilebutsectionor alternatively something likedynamic swap managerie, dynamically controls the paging. If necessary, an additional paging file of the required size is automatically created.

[vandizel]

GarwinHe definitely is, but how it works is not clear. I was genuinely surprised. When testing heavy games. Go no worse than my 1 + 1. This means that the memory 512 is not the limit

[Bless me, father]

Garwinsuspicion? Here, the terminal when entering the "busybox" command shows that the kernel supports swap, and when entering the "free" command it shows that there is a swap of ~ 400mb, and it seems that the swap should work quite well, since the write speed on the internal memory is enough high.

So roughly speaking, about gig of RAM, they put it all the same here, albeit in such a sophisticated way

[Bless me, father]

It also turned out that zRam compression is used.

zRam - Linux kernel module increases productivity by preventing paging to disk using a compressed block device in RAM until you need to use a paging file on your hard disk. The speed of exchange with RAM is faster than with a hard disk, so zRam allows Linux to perform more swap operations.

[slavan-97]

[b] vandizel, I'm in 10th grade. But. Swap is created, but the phone does not see it! System swap does not skip user

[vandizel]

slavan-97,it means you need to edit the frame and mount the swap. Or the core. Enter the same mount points

[slavan-97]
