[EVO Shift 4G General] e240:
ive been getting the best battery life on cm7. im on nightly 91 and using the stock kernel clocked to 1 ghz and i can easily go a full 2 days with atleast 15 percent left
[EVO Shift 4G General] hoesnaps:
default is cm7 stable 7.0.3.1 but lately i've been using shift deck and it's cool.
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
Shift deck is the very best rom imo. I love it and its better than CM7 to me.

Miui 1.4.29, amazing speed and 24 hrs plus battery with moderate usage. Ill never go back to sense.... what's the point?

[EVO Shift 4G General] cachorropedorro:
I wish my GPS worked and I also wished my signal was better so that I could fully enjoy CM7. I keep having to go back to a sense rom to "fix" the GPS issue. I'm on Mikshift at the moment and it's sluggish compared to aosp, but at least it's fully functional for me.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
I haven't tried alot of them, but I went with evervolv, I couldn't go back. Even trying cm7 after.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Lancerz:
Shiftdeck!!! Nuff said
[EVO Shift 4G General] travanx:
I like shiftdeck, though I still don't understand what's with the bootlooping on the last couple of releases.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Dread 7us:
CM7 is the fastest, smoothest for me and I love the nightlies.
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
I'm on the stock rooted rom. I loaded the speedy kingdom rom, but was too laggy and too many FCs for me, so I switched back. I'm running the X99 kernel, running at the defaults (1.2 gHz max), and it's running like a champ. I could run it at 1.5, but it runs so good at 1.2, that I didn't feel the need to go higher. Battery life is good too.
[EVO Shift 4G General] yaamakoh:
cm7 and x99 is working like a champ for me. so far nothing seems out of place, and all my aftermarket applications works fine such as youmail, gvoice, and gmail pushes as well. 2032 on quadrant :O !!!
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
Have you tried Shift Deck with x99. It runs awesome, even better than the nightlies. My Quadrant went from 3380 to 3900 switching to Shift Deck. All my other benchmarks went up aswell.
[EVO Shift 4G General] HTCotta:
I love deck's ROM also, SO fast. The bootloops are because of a new kernel he is trying. Don't worry he'll have it figured out soon enough. Anyways my favorite of all favorites has to be MIUI 1.4.29. I love the UI, it's fast, and by far the best battery life of any ROM I've tried.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Dread 7us:
Haven't tried it yet tho I'm meaning to. Does it have theme chooser?
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
Yeah, it has theme chooser. Just started running this ROM again yesterday and its pretty dang smooth.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SirThumpaLot:
Before the release of a stable AOSP ROM, the best battery life for me was AwesomeRom using a 1.8g bfq test kernel. I can't remember who the dev was since its been a while, but I believe it was Bcnice20. The ROM & kernel combo made my phone pretty snappy while also giving me like 14-16 hrs of battery life through heavy use.

On AOSP, my favorite ROM has to be Kush-Deck 1.2t so far. I just flashed Scary's Stable Kernel v2 last night. I have min at 245MHz, max at 1209MHz, and the governor set to "Smartass". I'm hoping those settings will give me the best experience in terms of performance, stability, & battery life.

I had been rawkin' an older version of Deck's ROM with the stock Kernel for a bit but after a while my battery life started going down hill. Before that i had been on different versions of CM7 for a while since RC 1 but battery life was even worse on those.

I've been pretty stoked on Deck so far and think I'll prolly keep rawkin this for a while. Especially since everything seems to be working well for me including GPS, Wi-Fi, 4G, etc.
[EVO Shift 4G General] grw4w34:
I also use deck's rom with the newest x99 kernel. Miui is also nice, but I always find myself flashing back to an aosp rom after a day or so.
[EVO Shift 4G General] NinjaMan691:
MikShift G is very nice but I love the Kingdom rom, however I'm waiting for a kernal before it is my daily.

Miui by far I got 48 hours of typical teen texting and music on it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
When I flashed to deck's rom, I only 1500 in quadrant scores. Didn't go up that much higher with x99 kernel.

[EVO Shift 4G General] doratheconquistadora:
I've been using CM 7 with x99 since I've rooted my phone.

I haven't tested any other ROMs, only because I'm comfortable with what I have now. Reliable and functional.
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
I use the cyanogen nightlies. Amazing in everyway with minor issues that mostly can be fixed with an app or two

Sent from my HTC EVO shift 4G running the latest and greatest cyanogen using the XDA app.
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
I was able to get 3900 using x99's kernel @ 1.8 Performance on Deck's Rom. What kernel/speeds did you test at?
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jedman67:
i tried installing this today, couldnt read any of the labels (chinese?) couldnt figure out the launcher, went back to cm7.

is there a link for shiftdeck around? i'd like to try that
[EVO Shift 4G General] Thexflames:
definitely has to be either cm7 or shift deck. =D

both of them have laster plenty of time..

cm7 with toasts kernel and shift deck with x99

best combos.
[EVO Shift 4G General] m0j0j0j0:
I used cm7 for a day and went back to mik shift. After coming from the moment and modding its ui constantly I have grown accustomed to sense ui on my shift, so I stick with mikshift and bcnice sense kernel. I'm anxiously awaiting the gb source to make the switch to newer sense, but I need my custom kernel so imma patiently wait
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
I tested at 1.8 max and min...

And I got 1700

I got 1900 with evervolv rom. Those are the highest numbers I've seen..

I use global quadrant rank testing my device.

[Motorola Droid X2] lostconfuzed:
After rooting the X2 and freezing much of the bloatware, the com.motorolla.contacts task is taking up 25% of my battery life on average. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Edit: i figured out that backup assistant is destroying my phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] fischb22:
how did you disable the backup assistant? I've noticed its sucking the battery life out of my phone also, but i dont see an option to turn it off.
[Motorola Droid X2] lostconfuzed:
well actually I figured out what the real problem was. what happens is that when you join two contacts together, one being one you made and the other being one from facebook, com.motorolla.contacts loves to constantly sync the profile and contact pictures, burning the battery. The backup assistant itself should not use as much energy, but if it is giving you problems you could always freeze it with titanium
[Motorola Droid X2] theguru1974:
I've got the same issue, and I've joined contacts so that must be it. Unjoining them isn't something I want to do though. How can we stop them from syncing, can we freeze something with Titanium Backup?

Eric
[Motorola Droid X2] lostconfuzed:
I have no idea. I only had like 3 contacts that were doubled so I didn't care enough to change them. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the social networking app. Be careful though because once you find a way to stop the syncing, all of the rest of your contacts with probably stop syncing as well.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] areshinakya:
I upgraded from stock froyo to oc 2.0.0 gold.

Then I noticed some lags.

the worst were in the gallery app which had about one fps while thumbnails were loading and in maps when zooming in to a level where buildings are displayed and then I then scrolled. This totaly stalled the device for more than 10 seconds sometimes.

Then I disabled lagfix in recovery and now it feels like in froyo again, both maps and gallery (i have about 800 photos on the device so itcan be easyly reproduced.

I wanted to post it in the oc thread in dev section, but I do not have permissions to do so.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0sh:
any ideas of what if you already found the solution ? ... they have to work on it little bit more give them time , they will release an update so wait :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] areshinakya:
For me my problems are solved, but isnt this the purpose of this forum to tell others?

I know that there were reports of lags but I dont remember someone pointing at lagfix to cause the lag.

Sorry if this was already known.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
Your gallery will lag after a new rom, as it needs to build a cache first.

If you followed the instructions perfectly when flashing overcome you shouldnt have any lag
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] areshinakya:
I followed the instructions 100%. Really pedantic.

After killing and restarting the gallary app the lag was back evrry time, rebooting didnt help either. It didnt seem to be a cache issue.

After disabling lagfix galary was fast right from the start.

also all other lags I noticed vanished.

I can turn lagfix back on and see what happens, my guess is that lags will come back.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
The lagfix could be borking with the included tweaks, but you dont need the lagfix anyway
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] areshinakya:
Yep, lagfix is a stupid name for a filesystem conversion anyway.

I admit I did not know what lagfix was until I tried to disable it, heard the robot voice and then checking via adb shell for mounted filesystems.

I have no problem with rfs and will stick to it for now.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
if you want ext4 see here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=943669

Use that kernel, and see the instructions in converting, i'm currently using the kernel, so far so good.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0sh:
are you using this kernel with overcome gold ? i really need to know the benefit cuz overcome also got the same kernel or am wrong ? thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] areshinakya:
ok I converted back to ext4, tested and converted to rfs once more.

with ext4 gallery lags like hell, with rfs it is okay.

Strange..

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] casagine:
Hello,

I was wondering if there is any way to get Multitouch Gestures on my android tablet as seen on IOS 4.3 and IOS 5. I would really like to use 4 fingers to switch between apps and four finger pinch to go to the home screen instead of using the task bar. Is there any way to get this feature on android, or is anyone working on it?

You can see an example here:

/watch?v=wvxSSGUtTYA

Thank You
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Samcobra:
Honestly, I believe that we of the Android community should be able to do almost anything given the hardware we have. I would like to know about this as well and at least see if anybody had been thinking of creating a multitouch gesture engine do android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pibach:
+1

the allways on status bar just occupies too much screen real estate

There should be some way to autohide it

iOS like multitouch gestures might be the best way to do so.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stretchwookie:
thank you for the vid, i hadnt seen that before. i would be VERY interested in this capability on android!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Gusar321:
For the Defy a patch was recently posted that allows detection of up to ten fingers. I think it was ported from the Milestone2, so there's at least two phones out there that can do it, and for sure they're not the only ones. So the tech is there. Now what's necessary is writing apps that make use of it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] WIIstpM:
the 10 multi-touch input for the Defy was taken from the Atrix, and ported to Milestone 2. I have a defy and frankly i don't anything requiring 10-multitouch input (just think: all your 10 fingers on a 3.7" screen xD and I wonder for what gesture...)

4 or 5 multi-touch input is the most suitable. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] unfugor:
anything new on this front?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tanneranderson28:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daniel_costa_rj:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gilliland:
I just tried something that seems like it should be simple, but I've had no luck with it whatsoever. I plugged a USB-DVD drive into the transformer dock, and hoped to find the ability to play an actual physical DVD. I don't see anything in the default software that appears to support this, nor do (apparently) any of the media players that I've installed.

I searched the market for "DVD", and found lots of software for converting DVDs to MK4 and various other formats, but nothing that appears to play a DVD directly.

Is there a way to play DVDs via an attached drive on the transformer?

Thanks in advance for any help.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ryan stewart:
Youd need drivers to support an external optical drive and an application that would be able to read that format. Currently there isnt anything because, until recently, there wasnt anything on android that had a true USB host.

I wouldnt expect it to happen any time soon either. I dont see the demand being very high as there are only two tablets with a full USB and nothing with a built in drive.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gilliland:
Bummer. I think you're right, though - it looks like I'm a bit ahead of things with this attempt. It should be possible, maybe even easy, to run a USB DVD drive on Android, but it will require an application that knows how to talk to the USB interface. And since the USB Host interface was just introduced with Android v3.1, it isn't likely that these applications will exist at this point.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliderocket22:
This is purely just out of curiosity. Today I updated my SGS II to KE7 from KE4 because the battery life was AWFUL, and people have been saying it's a known issue with KE4. Kies never showed the update, I think because I got the Polish version from eXpansys, so I just did it myself. Now if I understand correctly, this counter goes up when you flash unofficial software like a custom rom or kernel, but it doesn't when you flash official software, like KE7? It's not a big deal if it goes up either way, I don't want to put my phone in download mode again to check it, only to have to flash it again to get it out.

Even if it does I can get one of those Jigs that people are talking about and reset the count if I ever have a problem with it (that I can't fix).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Correct non standard rom or kernel flashed counter goes up one .

Recovery jig clears the counter .

my mom and brother updated their Evo's with the OTA update and i see they have some new text selector with precision tabs, like on the CyanogenMods, and i was wondering if there is any way to get my Rooted Evo to do that with out unrooting and updating? i am using the Warm2.2 rom at the moment and i don't really want to wipe and start fresh just for a text selection quirk so i'm hoping someone can help. :confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm922:
im pretty sure the text selection pins and everything are a gingerbread only feature, you would have to switch to a gingerbread rom to get it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
If you want to use the stock rom, don't unroot. Just flash the rooted stock rom.

You could also flash a "gingersense" rom if you want to stick with Sense and try GB. Just do a nandroid backup before flashing, that way if you don't like it or if something goes wrong, you can just restore from your backup.

So my Thunderbolt will randomly restart sometimes.. and drain the battery life down by at least 15%...

Other then that I wont have 3G in places I most definitely should..

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alluzzion2o9:
i had the same problem except i was getting shut downs rather than reboots. it def is the radio, rooting and flashing various stock-related radios fixes the problem. as for services im getting good data service but poor reception. infact my brother picked up the droid incredible 2 and i compared how many bars of reception we had and it was about he same.. 1-2 bars, will sometimes cut off and come back on again. i evem get voice mails without missed calls, another sign of dropped service.. weird but it may be in verizons coverage for sure.

This is a problem known to Verizon with their latest radio release for RUU 605.7. Engadget had an article on this a couple weeks ago. Don't return the phone. Try a different radio and or ROM combo. Mine does it... And it seems to do it more in some areas than others. I travel a lot.

My wife's Stock TB (with OTA update) had random reboots. When we went live here with 4G her phone did not pick it up at all. She called Verizon for replacement and they suggested a factory reset first. It picked up 4G and has not rebooted since.... just a thought

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] crump13:
Does anyone know how to stop going into mobile view of websites? I have unchecked the option in my internet browser setting but I still go to www.m.xxxxxx websites. This is really annoying as I really don't like the mobile sites of any of the websites I spend time at. I even take out the "m" in the URL when I launch the website from my bookmarks and when the page refreshes it goes back to the mobile view. And my bookmarks are all the desktop site URLs but it doesn't matter what I do I get sucked back onto the mobile sites. It is getting g so annoying I might return the flyer.

My incredible doesn't function this way, once I removed the check mark from the mobile view setting all was golden. Why doesn't it work on the flyer?

I was actually using Dolphin HD and swtiched back to stock internet because of this issue. I couldn't find anywhere in Dolphin's settings where I could deselect mobile view. I figured it was an issue with dolphin but when I switched back to using the stock browser and the problem continued I was baffled.

I tried clearing cookies, history, location data throught the browser settings but that didn't work. I then went to applications and selected internet and cleared cache and data and so far seems to be working correctly with the stock browser but I have had time to check all my sites to verify. All my bookmarks are gone so I have to resave them. I also haven't checked with dolphin to see if that is fixed or not.

I appreciate all the suggestions.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jwiskowski:
There is an option under Settings when running the stock browser.

But if you have a bookmarked saved to a mobile version of a site, it will revert to the mobile version.
