[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzie:
Hi all,

Was wondering if anyone experience jerky performances.

I have about 10 pages of apps installed mostly games and stock apps.

When I use advance app killer, usually i see stock apps eg. facebook, browser, ebook, etc.. When I kill them all, performance doesn't improve much.

If the 10 pages are the reason, any way to know which is running in background and sucking up resources?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andersonpaac:
The performance of your Gtab is jerky coz of the apps that run in the background even if you close them they restart.. u cn use startup auditor app to increase performance... if all fails hard reset nd install only required Apps not the apps u don't use but run behind nd eat up RAM nd battery
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
a certain app may be using up too much background resources. try uninstalling the culprit. detct it by trial and error
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkwoof:
I was in a similar situation until I last had to factory reset my Tab due to the whole issue with Google Apps Google Accounts not having access to Google Checkout on the Android Market.

Installed over 100 apps on my first day with the Tab (over-excited, I know :D), and realized that my Tab started to lag when opening the app drawer. The problem became most apparent when I shut down or rebooted the Tab; it would literally take minutes to boot up, and often it would freeze and force close my launcher several times in a row.

I chalked it down to having too many apps, but later read that many apps start themselves up on boot even if they had no reason to (e.g. Amazon, Aldiko, etc.)

I've since only installed apps that I would really use throughout the day, but would you guys say that so long these apps do not run on startup (say I disable them using the Autostarts app), I can install a hundred or even two hundred apps without the boot up lag?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzie:
So there's no way to see which app is running in background and % memory used, similar to windows task manager?

When I use Advanced task killer, are those 'apps shown' considered as background apps or are background apps invisible?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzie:
From my RAM manager, I see like 180+ to 200mb out of 400+mb. I think that's the remaining RAM ?

Anyone knows the stock RAM out of the box?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyt3rry:
It might be because carriers pre load crap on them
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzie:
Installed the free startup app and found the culprits ... GAMELOFT games. They are huge in size and think they eat up the memory in background/at startup.

After disabling, all back to normal.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Why on earth would you want to detect it by trial and error when there is plenty of apps you can use to find it specifically?

Use a app like system panel, It will show you all the running apps and there memory/cpu consumption etc.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
wow. i never knew of such app. please share.

Go try it out, free from the android market. No more amazon. :p
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Finally!!!!

EDIT: My gosh, it already has 250,000 downloads...
[Epic 4G General] usfslacker:
Yeah, but are we talking ad free version or is it the same version? And why are we hating on the Amazon market? Do we not like daily free apps now? I'm quite a fan of not only finally getting my ad free angry birds... getting it free definitely helped. Free swift key keyboard was just gravy.

That, plus the fact that it actually keeps track of apps between wipes makes it pretty great IMO.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Amazon Market is DRM'd - can't pull the APK and use it anywhere. And, it's ad-free... With Adfree Android or on SRF. ;)
[Epic 4G General] faceless:
so it has ads?

bah, sticking with amazon version.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Yes I love the fact it keeps track of the apps I've downloaded, free or purchased.

And yes, this is a big plus 1. DRM'ed Amazon is getting on my nerves....
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
I like Amazon, but I don't want to have to put in my Credit Card just to get free apps.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
This is less of a problem when you're already an Amazon customer. Amazon Student (free Prime) FTW.
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
The Amazon market doesn't update apps, does it? I mean, will it notify you of updates? I have an Amazon account with Student Prime but I had no idea I could link them together...haha

EDIT: I'm dumb, I was using the wrong Amazon account.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
For sure! Prime is definitively a beast. $4 over night shipping is a win in my books.
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
It was free on DAY 1! Where have you all been?
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Except when it's per-item and you're buying a bunch of small things. Still, two-day for free isn't shabby(penguin :p) at all.

dont think the amazon appstore gets updates frequently, theres an update for soundhound infinity which is 2.5.2 on google market but the update doesnt show on amazon appstore
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
Complaining about DRM in this fashion is ridiculous.

DRM music is crappy because it can prevent you from listening to your music. DRM games are crappy because developers have yet to figure that out so people get locked out of their game (see Assassin's Creed II). But DRM apps?

So, I don't plan to share my paid apps with the public (apps are cheap and if you share app warez, you're literally stealing from someone). DRM doesn't matter. I use the Amazon App market (free, legit paid apps and tracking of all app downloads? Yes please). DRM doesn't matter. Amazon is reliable and isn't going anywhere anytime soon. DRM does not matter. Ultimately, in this scenario, DRM is entirely beneficial. It literally protects the developer's interest while still being nonintrusive.

As a side note, ads have never bothered me. They're mostly nonintrusive and help pay your developers. Removing ads is another way to shaft the people who work hard to provide you with the content you love.

That said, Angry Birds Rio is the best they've done yet. Can't wait for the rest of the levels.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bidboy:
Installed JVK & then re-installed all my backups including Asphalt 5, but when I tried to play Asphalt 5 it came up with the message "This is not an original copy of Asphalt 5". It had been downloaded from Samsung apps when I was on JS8, on JS8 it worked fine. So I un-installed it & downloaded again thinking that it might have to be a fresh install on a different rom. After the download it worked fine, played with it for about an hour. Played a few other games I had on the phone then came back to Asphalt 5, but this time it came up with the same message " This is not an original copy of Asphalt 5". Anyone else had this problem & know how to solve it ?.

I just bought a touch pro 2 from a someone that told me it would work on boost mobile is that true? i tried taken out my sim card and putting it in but it did not let me make calls or anything.. do i have to unlock it? or is it that my sim card is not compatibility being that it is a iden sim taken from my i776 inserted into a cdma type phone? i know boost use sprint cdma network on some of there phones so i thought it would work with no problems since i seen that the touch had a sim in it..please guide me into the right direction on getting this phone activated to work on boost.. Thank you
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kearnej:
the sim card for iden will not work in the cdma phone. just call boost and tell them u want to migrate your number/account from iden to cdma. if you get the right csr they'll help you program the tp 2(sprint branded) w the understanding service is not guaranteed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Bobby.O:
Yes it could work you need to be on Boost/Sprints CDMA Network though thats the first step the rest is flashing it but yes it could work as long as you can get it unlocked and flashed to Boost i dont know specifics though hope this helps
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zefi.spb:
Hi all!

I have a trouble with my Samsung GT-I9010. Once during a call it had rebooted itself. After booting the launcher couldn't start (LauncherPro). There was error -> critical exit -> error -> critical exit -> and so on... After a while I could unload and uninstall LP at all. Stock launcher started and worked fine. But since then sometimes i have a critical error in different apps. The application is closing after error and no data saving.. It disturbs me. I've started to think what to do. It seems to be memory or file system error. I had installed Quadrant Advanced benchmark and tested the phone. The benchmark throws error on I/O test (1/4 - File system writes). Error message: Internal error during benchmark execution. So i've made a conclusion that it is a file system error. But i cant find any tools to check and fix file system errors. Please help me..

I have a stock Android 2.2 rom without root and stock recovery. I have no SD card, just internal 16Gb.

Maybe it is possible to solve my problem without reflashing or wiping..

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Atrixx:
How do i change my main account to my new windows live account? ive added my new one, but it wont register as the new one. Is it possible? or is there a registry hack?
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
Sadly, the only way to use a new Windows Live ID as your primary one is to do a reset, and when it asks you what Live ID you want to use, make sure you add it first. You can't switch Live IDs any time you like without a reset. And any additional Live IDs you add will not and cannot become your primary one.

Please use the forum search tool, or read the original documentation for Windows Phone 7. This question has been asked (and answered) countless times.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Barbbachello:
I believe you have to hard reset and start again. An option would be nice
[Windows Phone 7 General] Atrixx:
I saw it before, but the thread was old, and i wasnt certain whether they had changed it in the NoDo update. but is there any registry hacks?
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
No. It has not been changed (if it did it would have been on the change logs most likely) and if there is a reg hack, no one has found it yet. Hard reset is the way to go.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Atrixx:
id rather not hard rest, considering ill lose the dev hack and my apps. but if found ways to edit my live account and change the address to my gmail account, so ill work with what i have
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
MS considers the apps tied to the account. so moving to a new account means all those apps are lost. perhaps you should ask MS if there is a way to transfer those apps across to the new account? this is more in terms of actual purchased apps, rather than free apps.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arkavat:
You can change windows live ID assosiated with your account.

Go to account.live.com sign in with you old account.

next to windows live ID click on "change"

put your new windows live ID

all your account details, gamertag, purchases, achievements will be transferred to the new windows live ID.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cyruss89:
Can you use a Live account on different phones, but with a different X Box Live Account on each phone?
[Windows Phone 7 General] cbebop7:
I think you can use the same Live ID on upto 3 phones, i may be wrong though but no you cant use 2 different IDs on the same phone. Your main Live ID is linked to Xbox and Zune also on your phone.

Is it possible to use the Arc's Japanese keyboard on the xperia x10? If so, could someone link me to it? ^^;
[Quantum General] magicsgram:
After enabling MFG,

it seems as it the only way to remove it from the app list is by uninstalling.

Does it uninstall for good?

or can I bring it back later again?

In other word, Does uninstalling perminently uninstall mfg?

or just delist from the app list?

Thank you`!:p
[Quantum General] Steven855:
What I think happens is that by uninstalling, it removes the program. However, the install xap file is still on the system and can be reinstalled by putting in the right key code.
[Quantum General] sure haven't:
Great question, I had the same one.

But it won't screw anything up right?
[Quantum General] Steven855:
no, it won't
[Nook Color General] thereddog:
I'd love to post some screenshots, but they don't work just yet in CM7

I am having an issue with Google Reader scaling. I can open the app up and it displays as it should. When I open articles, the screen will scale down to about 1/4 size. There is even a little fade transition to it too.

Can anyone else running CM7 tablet mod try Reader to see if I'm the only one?
[Nook Color General] KitF:
This is an issue with all versions of CM7. It's due to the LCD Density being greater than 160.

If it's 160 or below, Maps force closes, but if it's above 160, some apps don't scale correctly. I personally just have a bookmark for the web app on my desktop, as I like it better than the android app.
[Nook Color General] thereddog:
So there is no fix, either I will have Maps crashing, or Reader not displaying properly

Man, I can't wait for 3.0 to be released
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Spare Parts -> Compatability -> Off, reboot.

I had the same question last night in IRC :)
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Of course there are fixes, or at least workarounds. They are discussed in the CM7 threads.
[Nook Color General] thereddog:
That's what I tried first, disabling compatibility, rebooting, enabling compat, reboot

On or off, Google Reader and Tiger SNES are both scaled down

Care to link me or enlighten me?
[Nook Color General] thereddog:
I updated to yesterdays latest version, but I am still having scaling issues with Reader

[General Questions and Answers] Tyro.Eh:
So I'm looking into joining the android community for the first time and I am just curious to what phone most people prefer from the two in the title? I have looked into the specs of both phones and the atrix seems superior but is it over powered? Reason I'm asking is cause I can get the galaxy free and the atrix is $69 with a 3 year term, so is the atrix worth the extra money or is galaxy plenty good?
[General Questions and Answers] k0sun7eash3d:
I own the Atrix and the Galaxy S Captivate from AT&T and the Captivate, while good in its own right is already outdated. You mention that you're new to Android, so if you're looking to do some dev work, the Galaxy S is probably the way to get started since it's significantly easier to modify than the locked down Atrix. As for the Atrix being overpowered, the way phones are coming out, there is no such thing. For only $70 more, I would definitely get the Atrix if you're just looking for a daily driver. The working GPS is worth that alone, but throw in the dual-core processor and you're not likely to get left in the dust for at least a few months.
[General Questions and Answers] kareeem:
I also have both and I'd definitely go for the Atrix, although that 3 year term is ridiculous. The only thing I liked more on my Captivate was the super amoled screen. The Atrix's screen and colors just seem so dim compared to it.

So some "independent" security consultant runs his software to see about spyware or whatever, gets a false positive, news runs rampant and then Samsung gets an independent body to buy product from a retailer and test.

That pisses me off.

This "so called" consultant ran an off the shelf virus checker, known to produce a false positive, and published his "results" without even a modicum of research into the cause.
