[Optimus One, P500, V General] wheremyarm:
So I've been using rooted stock forever and recently jumped into custom roms after seeing what CM7 was like on my nook color. MMS always worked fine. Now I'm on the latest stable build of CM7.0.2, and no one is receiving the pictures of my messages anymore. I can send and receive them to myself just fine. It's really sad because this phone is running so slick, but it's pretty crippling for me not to be able to send MMS.

Another odd thing is that the data icon will flash between H and 3g, but I was pretty sure this phone doesn't have EDIT: 4G access. Seemz to work fine but I wasn't sure if of was related. Also I'm on T-Mobile. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zero47:
maybe u should flash the rom again...

[Nook Color General] ExploreMN:
Currently I am running CM7 off internal memory and I have a SD card that has the apps and what-not on it.

I bought another SD card with the idea of making it a bootable Honeycomb install so I can try it out. I mean I completely enjoy CM7 and have everything set up perfectly the way I want it, but I also like trying new stuff.

So the question is this. Is it possible to do this in a way where the HC install won't affect the CM7 install? I mean when you go to install an app on HC would it put stuff on internal memory or somehow screw up the CM7 install? The idea is that when I want to go back to my stable CM7 I would just put its card in so the second HC card would just be for screwing around.

Anyway...that's the question. I'm guessing if I dug around enough and pulled information together from multiple threads I might figure it out, but perhaps others are interested in doing what I'm talking about too...so hopefully this is a useful post.
[Nook Color General] MS3FGX:
If you are running a ROM from SD, everything will be on the SD. The ROM is setup in such a way that it thinks the SD card is internal memory, so everything will get installed to it.

The only downside is that SD is much slower than internal (especially if you don't have a good card), so the experience usually suffers a bit.
[Nook Color General] ebubar:
You can certainly do this. I'm running stock 1.2 on EMMC and have a dualboot SD card of Phiremod(CM7) and Honeycomb (the latest version from Divine_Madcat). Nothing on internal is touched.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045018

Regarding performance on SD, I have a transcend, class 6 that works flawlessly for CM7 and is a tad slow on Honeycomb. Might pickup a class 4 Sandisk tomorrow (if the price is right!) as i've heard that those are the best and are consistently faster.
[Nook Color General] ExploreMN:
Thanks guys. Got it going and its not half bad. I think that if the EVER release the source, this would be an awesome OS for the Nook.
[Xperia Arc General] AwesomeAHlee:
if i root my phone using the gingerbreak exploit can i still update to the next sony ericsson's update? and would rooting my phone void its warranty?
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
Yes, you should be able to.
[Xperia Arc General] festa20:
Rooting it shouldn't. Void tour warranty but it's better to read up on it and u r still able to update it
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
Rooting does not void any warranty since you can flash the original firmware back to the phone(most of the time)

The best, most efficient, smallest footprint, and easy-to-nav app that can kill unnecessary apps/services and block ones you don't want coming up?
[Acer Iconia A500] Iconia:
I always have and still do use Advanced Task Killer off the market.
[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:
Have always used Android Assistant but it seems to have some problems blocking apps in honeycomb.
[Acer Iconia A500] jimbobtexas:
It's been posted time and again on many Android forums that Task Killers are generally a bad idea. Let Linux do its thing. If an app is misbehaving, uninstall it. Use Titanium Backup to either freeze or uninstall ANY application (root is required).
[Acer Iconia A500] rorytmeadows:
Why are they generally a bad idea?

And what does freezing apps do?
[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:
Sometimes Task killers are necessary for a misbehaving app. I have several that I use that sometimes fail to close properly start using large chunks of cpu time in the background.

Blocking an app from starting up is different. Some applications want to start up everytime you power on your device and it is just not necessary. This is where blocking them from starting up I find a beneficial. Before doing this though you should analyze the application and how much memory and cpu is actually using.

However I agree That using a task killer to constantly kill tasks in the background is indeed a bad idea.
[Acer Iconia A500] rushless:
A few points about Linux, Android and Task Killers:

1. Android is based on Linux, but the Dalvik byte code layer and framework design makes the OS it's own entity.

2. If all apps were designed to spec, there were no fragmentation and they "played nice", then a task killer would not be needed. Since a lof apps do not and there is fragmentation, a lot of apps do not play nice. Even OEM loaded apps can suck the resource soul out of a device. The Sony Play is an example of this (great device slowed by AWFUL bloatware).

3. Task killers are very handy to kill rogue apps that are an issue and the key is to exclude system-apps, which are usually the little green & white icons, but not always.
[Acer Iconia A500] rushless:
Dupe post. Silly.
[Acer Iconia A500] sarashah:
I understand that task killers drain your battery, but im not gonna lie I like bein able to close all my apps and not gettin notifications all day long. so is there something out there like this that doesn't constantly run in the background?
[Acer Iconia A500] Juzman:
Same here. Put the widget down bottom right of the screen, just tap it every now and then. Works like a charm.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
Hello all, been a while since I've posted. I have been working hard on the sidelines on a completely themed CM7 that feels acceptable to me. This is about as completely themed as it comes for me.

First off, on this copy I did remove many extra .apks I never use including DSP manager, development, wallpapers, the ability to change themes within the ROM, and a few other things I think.

As per previous experience I did leave the browser in (even though I never use it).

I did add a few items over time I have grown to not be able to live without, custom font is one of them. I spent a lot of time converting the ringtones from the MyTouch 4G and made them all compatible with the MyTouch 3G Slide. I have incorporated then into the various ringtones and alarms available to the Slide. I even added a few 'ringtones' to the notification audios so now longer notifications are available to those who want it! In addition I updated most the 'bland' settings icons with more 3D/colored ones.

In the notification bar, you will notice I have added completely custom and high quality color icons which do include some that I customized myself.

I waited so long to post this because I don't plan on doing updates to this ROM, this version of the nightly works flawlessly on my phone and I do not plan on updating for some time now. Though I will post an optional version 2 in a day or so without all the apks deleted for those of you that like to have the entire ROM.

<><> WARNING!!! I am in no way shape or for responsible for any damage you may incur using this ROM, flash at your own risk.<><>

Thank you for your work. This looks good. I may try this. I've found CM7 to be unstable for me so I've still been on Cyanoginger 1.2 (CM6.1.1) which has been the most stable for me. I may wipe extra to try this out. . . . . and use it until the Gingerbread roms with Sense features become stable. I really miss Sense.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
Just curious, how does the theme bother your eyes? I only changed icons in it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
Icons are nice, I just think they're kinda big. The font is probably mostly it. Is it Caviar Dreams? I flashed that on a rom myself during the original CR_OTA days. I like it, though. I'd just have the font a tad smaller, too.

I'm diggin' the rom.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
There isn't a day that goes by that people dont complain about this phone. It seems that every since the bleeding issue has been addressed people have been finding the tiniest things to get mad about. Some things can be fixed through software fixes/roms and some things you just simply return the device for if you can't fix it yourself. Some things are just your imagination lol. The device in my opinion is doing good to be out for almost a month. Maybe I'm just tired of hearing people let the negative outweigh the positive. Honestly if you didn't want the issues you should have waited a couple months after the launch. This is the first phone I bought on the day it launched. I expected issues...nothing is perfect but with these roms coming out its starting to become a perfect device in my eyes. Once Faux123 cooks us a kernel there shouldn't be any complaints left.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rbryinc:
Totally agree
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mapin0518:
Yes, what is even more annoying is that each "issue" has two dozen threads dedicated to it. Making it impossible for anyone to make any headway.

How about a single "battery issues and solutions" thread?

A single "LCD bleed" thread.

A single "random reboot" thread.

Can you imagine how much better this forum would be? Maybe the mods could merge threads and do this, but it's probably too far gone at this point to implement some organization.

Currently, every time someone has one of those issues, they start a whole new f-ing thread.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
Agreed. So expect more to come.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kirdroid:
Op - I know at one point you were planning on returning the g2x and wait for sensation. Glad that you have got one that doesn't have that much bleeding and you are happy with it :-)

For me personally this device rocks in all aspects except for the slight lcd bleeding I have. Any other software issues will be addressed by our awesome devs. I just hope LG address this lcd bleeding.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] klmsu19:
+1 everyone being WAY too picky.

100% of the people are under a FULL REFUND period still. Rather than b*tch and whine, return the thing and get something else. Why cause so much stress you have to whine on an online forum about it instead of just returning the thing for 100% your money back? Sounds like gluttony for punishment to me; would rather waste 5-10min complaining than rectify the situation and be done with it by getting something else. Tmobile has plenty of other good android phones.

The blacklight bleed is not that big an issue. Anyone running their backlight at 100% all of the time to complain about it has bigger issues like going 4 hours on a charge. No one should need to set the backlight at 100% for anything besides trying to kill your battery for some reason.

And if LG does fix the issue EVERYONE has a 1 year warranty on the phone despite the return period to swap it for a "fixed" one. There is absolutely nothing that warrants the dozens of threads about it blocking other meaningful discussions.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
Yea I was to the point of no return. I just kept bothering tmobile until I felt as though I got a device that was satisfsctory. My friend works for them so when he gets his sensation from training class ill mess around with it to see if its worth the hype.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
I still have 16 days left so my decision is still on the air. Phone still looks new. Right now I'm keeping it, but anything can happen. Who knows more roms may come out. I'm happy with it. I bought times of accessories so if do go somewhere else the accessories will be up for grabs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
So far this has been the best Android device I have ever used and I have used many. Luckily I do not have a single problem with this phone. My WiFi works great and never fights with data. I get 30mbs download speeds and 10mbs upload speeds while on WiFi. I get 7mbs download and 2mbs upload on 4G. My GPS locks within 3 seconds and is accurate to 5 feet. I am running the stock software with the pre-dexopt patch using Launcher Pro and this phone flies through everything. It plays every game at high frame rates and Flash runs buttery smooth. I never thought I would use a Android phone that didn't lag but this phone hasn't lagged once. I can honestly say that I am extremely happy and in my opinion this is the best device available in the US right now. The only device that will dethrone it is the SGII which I will be getting and give the G2X to my wife. For those who think the Sensation will be better than the G2x.....HAHAHAHAHAHAH
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BimmerFerret:
This phone is far superior to my G1. As long as it just runs with no errors, I'm good.

.....or it could be that many of the first release devices had major issues and people have come to rely on the excellent folks here at XDA to help them. I know that many also moved from the HD2 to a full time android device and there has been growing pains.

I had a POS one, swapped it and am very happy now.

Thanks again to all great people here at XDA that have helped me make the adjustment from WM.

Reading is the key!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] keyboardr:
Just my personal opinion, but it does seem like they rushed out the 2.2 build. I worked as a sales rep for T-Mobile (today was my last day), so I had to see the dark side of the user experience more since people would come to me with troubleshooting issues. It just doesn't have the polish that I would expect from a 2.2 ROM. Most times it would fly, but occasionally it would hang when switching apps, be slow to respond, and sometimes outright crash for no reason. That said, almost all the stability issues I've had were fixed when I flashed the Gingerbread leak, and I didn't even wipe before flashing (I was naughty).

Seems to me like they intended to ship it with 2.3 but ran short on time. Instead they took the ROM they had for the O2x, got rid of their UI changes and hobbled it onto the G2x with the intention of updating it quickly. For that reason, I told the customers that came into my store with stability issues to wait for the update, but if it doesn't come before their return period is up (30 days here in California) to go ahead and return it. I fully expect that update to come before June 20th.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:

Rant

here's the kicker... You see, I'm a NEW android/smartphone user. This is my first smartphone. I came from using a razr just for phone calls, for the last 4+ yrs.

I thought the g2x is the next best thing to sliced bread. I love it. I got mine on the day it was launched, the first run of phones.. It has slight screen bleed.. so what. I would have never noticed it unless someone said something. I thought about returning the phone to get a different one because "heck, everyone else was complaining"... and I was like.. why would I do that? The phone works fine.. nothing wrong with it... and I'll probably get one that has more probs.

So I kept the phone. Battery life? As someone else said... on every single other forum where a new phone comes out... that's the #1 talked about topic. "Battery life sucks! Battery life sucks!" Now after talking to a few folks, do I see there is a problem for a few people.. absolutely. If you're phone has apps frozen, nothing running, you set it down on the table.. pick it up a cpl hours later and it has dropped 25%... ya, major problem. A few guys are seeing a drop down to a dead battery in 8hrs, with almost zero usage. A phone call or 2 and litearlly a few txt msgs. There is somethihng seriously wrong. BUT there are others that are using their phone all day long.. txting all day.. screwing battery usage with using ATK 30x a day, etc.. and they are complaining about battery life of 8hrs when they are using their phone like a computer. Stupid.

I have talked to multiple guys about their battery usage... they started off complaining... Then as we discussed in PMs... they admitted.. "Ya I guess I do use the phone a lot. I'm literally texting all day long." WTF!?!? Duhhhhhhhhhh

lol... I seriously believe that around 75% of the battery complaints are idiots using the crap out of their phone... and wondering what is going on...

/rant
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bdkinney:
I totally agree...way too much complaining. And I LOVE that we now have a thread for complaining about the complaint threads. I know, I'm twisty...but I love it. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
I agree. I was just looking at the pictures posted in one of those other threads of the screen bleed. They are all mostly like mine. One, with a sqiggly line, did look really bad. But really, I do not see the bleed in everyday use. At all.( Edit: And I am a 100% brightness sorta guy) Someone was griping about how they can't see it in use, but boy when 2,3 comes out and that bar turns black....oh boy am I gonna be mad!! Wow.

Mine activated early yesterday morning. I am amazed at this thing...

I may totally regret saying this, but other than the screen bleed "issue", this thing has been perfect for me. Just lucky I guess.

No reboots, wifi seems to work perfect, great data speeds and clear crisp calls. So far. My call reception was awful on Metropcs.

Again I may regret saying this. I have seen a couple of posts where people say they started having issues after a week or so.

Am I the only one having a problem free experience?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Marco1707:
Agreed, I think that many of the issues with this device will be addressed when T Mo releases the official OTA Gingerbread update. Battery life could be better, but what device is perfect?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] VisedMonk:
I agree, op. This device isn't perfect, but it sure is pretty good. Kind of reminds me about all the complaints about the evo when it first came out.

And if nothing else, we can take solace in the fact that the bootloader isn't signed. Engadget or Gizmodo (can't remember which one) ran a little blip earlier today that the htc sensation has a signed bootloader like the thunderbolt.

The devs will have this device rockin' in no time with fixes for most everything, and tasty gingerbread is just around the corner.
