[G2 and Desire Z General] carmanj16:
hey so my gf has a desire z mostly because I convinced her android is the way to go, and she loves it, but recently she has been frustrated because every once in a while, usually when she uses the default messaging app or widget, it will slow way down and/or freeze, and take a few minutes to sort itself out, I suggested try handcent cause it may clean that up, but since then it has continued to happen, any suggestions? thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] heema88:
Rooted? Over clocked? What rom?
[G2 and Desire Z General] craiglay:
Reboot with pulling the battery out? Many apps on it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
If you're unsure whats causing the slowdown, I'd download Watchdog Lite and see what apps are taking up the most CPU/RAM and see if removing or fixing issues with these apps will change anything.
[G2 and Desire Z General] carmanj16:
I haven't done anything extra for her to it, no rooting, all she has done is the ovta 2.2.1 update and download apps, just simple ones like backgrounds, schedules/notes, and games, and okay thanks I'll try downloading that app to see
[G2 and Desire Z General] sigiloso:
When having that version of Android I had some slow downs when using animated wallpapers, they clogged the memory also until it froze. Using normal, steady backgrounds took care of it.

I also have advanced task manager installed (free from market), it has a widget, clicking on it frees memory and speeds up the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] carmanj16:
I like the wallpaper idea but I have heard from many places that task killers use more battery cause most apps will just start up again, but if it stops the freezing maybe it's a necessary trade off
[G2 and Desire Z General] craiglay:
Yeah, Froyo is supposed to be much better with ram management so task managers are not required. Its very likely to be a misbehaving app in the background.

Failing that, factory reset to rule out an failed ota.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
How many text messages does she have on the phone? I think this is a known issue, for people with a ridiculous mount of SMS messages.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
Don't use task managers. They're unnecessary and like you said can hurt more than they help more often than not.

Check out an app like Watchdog, that doesn't kill anything it'll just show you if something is eating too much CPU, so you can remove or change it. Also, lots of messages or long long threads can slow it down too.
[G2 and Desire Z General] carmanj16:
so I got her to use watch dog and she just texted me saying that it popped up and messaging was over the cs threshold, and I do think she has a ton of messages, I'll tell her that deleting them could fix it, thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
You can customize what the threshold is. I think its like 20% or 30% by default. Kinda surprising that very rarely happens. If she deletes all messages and it still happens I'm really not sure.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Alex530:
She has a desire z. Its sense slowing it down. Not android. I remember this happening to me when i use to have it. Root that badboy and slap cyanogen mod on it. I can guarantee you it'll be waaay faster, not to mention the battery life will be better.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
While the Sense launcher is a bit laggy and resource hungry, it sounds like the OP has something going on far beyond just Sense. Sense itself does not cause the Messaging app to lockup for minutes, and it seems to be a problem that has developed over time.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
My personal preference is "System Monitor". It doesn't kill anything and does everything watchdog and a little more. It costs tho :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Alex530:
Trust me i know what im talking about. Its happened to me before. I've seen it happen when my friend lend me his evo. The messaging app is garbage on sense.
[G2 and Desire Z General] carmanj16:
just talked to her so she can delete her 5000 built up messages, she says she likes sense though...i am not a fan but what ever lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
5000? holy ****...
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
You were previously talking about flashing CM7. If the HTC SMS app is indeed the problem, you don't need to flash a new ROM to get away from it. Yes, the HTC SMS app is not great, but neither is the stock AOSP one. I've been using the stock Sense ROM for the most part since December, with Chomp SMS and see absolutely no slow down. Plus, I've tried CM7 and other ROMs, and there is no significant affect on battery life. If the OP's GF wants to stay on Sense, its really overkill to recommend ROM flashing. Its pretty apparent from the most recent posts deleting some messages will likely fix the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z General] craiglay:
5000 is a bit much. If its just a case of not being bothered to delete old messages (I have the same problem, but delete in the hundreds still) I could recommend the "Delete old messages" function which will automatically keep the thread down to size. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] fdawson:
does EVO 3D support high-speed bluetooth?

my laptop looks to be supporting it already so would be nice to have it in evo 3d too. I think then I would not need USB cable anymore for transferring pics and video.
[HTC EVO 3D] flomexico:
It has Bluetooth 3.0, but I'm not sure if that's high speed or not.
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
On most of the reviews that I have seen on youtube on the evo 3d the capacitive lights go off after about 3 seconds yet they remain on the whole time on mines when using the phone and can be quite annoying especially at night since those lights are so damm bright! does anyone here who has applied both updates on their evo confirm if the lights remain on after updating.

here is a review on the 3d and you can see the lights turn off

[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
Mine turn off but they are bright as HELL! Screen Filter is your best friend right now :p
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
did you apply both updates? and yes they are bright as hell which is why i want them to turn off on their own since i watch a lot of videos at night and the lights get really annoying. I tried screen filter but I don't want to use an app for something the phone should be doing on its own :p
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
I hear ya...We shouldn't have to run an app but for now, it's all we got. I haven't installed any updates, still on HBoot 1.3
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
I see, I wonder how many other people have the same problem. I will use the app for now but I will be going to the sprint store this week to see if other evos have the same problem.. if they don't I will be exchanging mine
[HTC EVO 3D] Alanmw86:
I have 3 and they all do this.

annoying, they are bright lol
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
Really? wow! I know its a software issue since the app screen filter is able to turn them off. Whatever it is I hope htc fixes it quick I will be emailing them in a bit to see if they are aware of the issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] blix1337:
Mine aren't turning off either. However I have a buggy 3D as it is, so I'm not surprised.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Same here. I'm starting to think that they're all buggy...
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
Must be HTC screwed something up as the review units all seem to be working fine:mad: I am waiting on a response from them I will update on what they have to say.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Did the og evo lights turn off?
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
yea they did.. if you click on the link on the first post you can see the lights on the 3D go off after about 1-3 secs.
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
Just got an email from HTC and according to them the capacitive lights are affected by ambient light so the less light there is makes them stay on the whole time :/
[HTC EVO 3D] Spiderman313:
They're fine too me. Not bright at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] dmacias:
I noticed that my search button is always on. The others turn off in bright light but the search button dims and is barely on.
[HTC EVO 3D] kenfly:
Might be light leakage from the actual led screen backlight
[HTC EVO 3D] eviltwin24:
Yea my search button is the same as well so it must be from the backlight. Hopefully HTC lowers the light timeout in an update soon I'm kinda blind already and those lasers hitting my eyes aren't helping much lol

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purple1:
Okay so I wanna unroot my Mytouch but I saw in a thread some one bricked there phone by flashing the PD15MG while having a different radio.....I have the latest gingerbread radio and was wondering doesn't the file supposes tto flash everything back to stock? And what is the safest way to UnRoot I used the GFree method btw
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave5777:
If you have the latest radio you need to find the stock radio first. Some where in the development section someone has it in a PD15IMG zip by it's self. If you don't and you try the full it will give you a main version is older error.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave5777:

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dkymala:
I have used the QuickPic app for months and now I am having FC issues and it is really slow in loading pictures and won't open any pics before FC.

I have just done a clean install from Phiremod test build to Nightly 114 and loaded a fresh copy of the App rather then the backup in Titanium and I have the same problems.

My Gallery App is also very twitchy but it always was.

Has anyone else had this issue?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ponyboy82:
I was just fighting with constant FC's with the Gallery app too, as well as the com.android.media process. It seemed to be due to adding a new directory that had a lot of wallpaper-sized images (roughtly 400+). It even persisted after I deleted the images, and would make the NC unusable. I don't know if it's normal, but it seems like once I get a single FC, then nothing else works. I have CM7 with the latest nightly at the time (111 i think), btw.

What is the difference of Android 3.2 Honeycomb, Android 3.1 and android 4.0? Will my Moto Xoom be updated to android 3.2 or wait for android 4.0? Thanks in advance~

Source:answers.downloadatoz.com/q,3417,what-is-the-difference-between-android-3-2-honeycomb-and-android-3-1.html
[Xoom General] e.mote:
Three down, only seven more to go! :)
[Xoom General] Kcarpenter:
Primary difference is the support for lower resolution devices.

I doubt moto would put the development time in for the very little gain on other things included. We will probably get the 4.0 update, if there is another 3.X update that acutally does something for our devices, we might see it.
[Xoom General] VaKo:
Doesn't 3.2 add improved hardware acceleration support and fixes for widgets and some of the google apps?
[Xoom General] peterochford:
US Xooms will receive 3.2, since they're Google Experience devices. 3.2 is more than just small-screen optimized (the version number alone implies this is an update to all devices running Honeycomb,but it has already been verified to include platform-wide improvements). For European Xooms and other devices reliant on a carrier or manufacturer for updates, 3.2 is less certain.
[Xoom General] chbennett:
3.2 is ONLY for 7 inch tablets. Xooms are 10.1 inches. Other then that, they are the same. So disregard anything else you hear.

Version number means next to nothing.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
You speak as if you have some authority on the matter. I can tell you with great confidence that 3.2 will also fix various bugs one of which includes EAS security. Please don't come here and make blanket statements with absolutely no proof to back you up. I can at least give you an e-mail exchange between myself and a Google employee that confirms 3.2 will fix at least one bug and it has nothing to do with screen size.

3.2 adds support for 7", but it's not limited to 7" devices at all.
[Xoom General] chbennett:
Care to post a link to any other source of information then a personal email correspondence?
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
That's how I read it too

http://thisismynext.com/2011/06/20/...ummer-seven-inch-tablets-qualcomm-processors/
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
Certainly:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16992

At least ONE critical bug that's not related to screen size at all is being addressed in the next software push.

I would be hard pressed to believe that a software update would only be for screen size... they're going to sneak in fixes for stuff here and there. Stuff you might not ever be affected by.
[Xoom General] SkipIAm:
And your sources are? You sir, should get an iPad and assist in the Apple forums.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
That's not necessary :)
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
oh nice quotes from that link: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16992
[Xoom General] talipandas27:
no reports of a 3.2 update for the xoom yet..
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
I consider the issues section of that google site pretty useful as far as reports go :)
[Xoom General] chbennett:
In response to skipiam

Two points:

1) I can respect your source valid, however, based solely on the term maintence update, I don't think we can assume that only means going to v3.2. Just like with any other version of android (say gingerbread for example), updates that fix bugs are historically numbered in sequence, I.e. 2.3 is the initial, then they release 2.3.2, 2.3.3 and the most recent, 2.3.4. Based on this, there is uncertainty.

2) my sources are much less technical, as they are tech journalists ( I use the last term loosely)

http://phandroid.com/2011/06/20/android-3-2-detailed-supports-7-inch-displays-qualcomm-cpus/

There are a few other sites that ran similar articles at the first mention of 3.2, but one is enough.

Please note the below:

[Xoom General] binglut9:
SD card and 4g are also coming with 3.2 and its coming mid july .... I can't out my sources but I have it on good authority
[Xoom General] HuckFinn:
What I would really like to see in an upcoming update would be tethering through USB. I have a WiFi only Xoom and it would be great to be able to plug my phone into the USB port using an OTG cable to access the network through my phone. I know this is available in one of the Tiamat images but I would like to stay stock for now.
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
How could 4g possibly come via software update?
[Xoom General] spiff72:
Just wondering if you considered Bluetooth tether...

I tethered my rooted of Droid to my zoom with the Google wifi tether app and it worked perfectly. Getting the actual wifi tether to work was another story.

Not sure if I did this before or after rooting the zoom.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
Magic Faeries.
[Xoom General] HuckFinn:
Yes I actually use BT tethering to connect my Xoom through my Motorola Milestone2. Neither of which are rooted or running anything but stock SW.

I want the USB tethering so I can use a 4G USB dongle that I have. I can plug the dongle into the Xoom via an OTG cable and the dongle works and connects, just the Xoom does not recognize the connection. I have considered rooting and going down the custom kernel path, but just not sure if I am ready. This is the only feature of Tiamat that I would really like to have and I am not positive it will even work.
[Xoom General] Smokexz:
3.1, hardware acceleration to flash, external hardware support, bug fixes

3.2, (rumoured) improved hardware acceleration, bug fixes support for smaller screens.(7 inches)

4.0(?) Are you talking about Ice Cream? That is for phones, new UI design following in design of Google's new UI change across Honeycomb and their websites. (Not confirmed is dual core support, but it would be foolish to not have it)

Correct me if I missed something.
