First and foremost, I love this. It has definitely saved my phone. However, I find it hard to find the perfect balance. I tried the gaming settings and ended up switching to the Mega Memory settings, which I've ran until today. Mega Memory was great, however it didn't play well with WidgetLocker (which is necessary due to the horrible stock lockscreen lag).

I recently came across a thread with some custom values (6, 12, 50, 70, 90, 110) and it runs excellent with WidgetLocker. No redraw upon entering my homescreen (actually, 1 in 15 maybe) - so now WidgetLocker runs fantastic. However, I have noticed my picture frame widgets (of my daughter) don't fill in all the way. This never happened with Mega Memory.

I currently have about 65-75 free RAM at any given time. My phone seems to be running solid, except I have the before mentioned issues with my picture frame widgets and lately I can't see any text when typing a text. This is random and happened before using the script. Does anyone know of a "sweet spot" that might fix all of these? I am tempted to bump up slot 3 from 50 to 60 or so to see if that does it, but I'm not sure if that is what controls the issues I'm having.

Any input/suggestions/thoughts would be welcome.
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
I'm rooted and supercharged as well. I'm also using WidgetLocker. I was using Launcher Pro Plus, but I was getting redraws pretty much every time the phone was unlocked. I've switched to Go Launcher now and I haven't experienced a redraws in over 2 weeks.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I'm now using Zep's megamemory 2 settings and everything is playing nice with ADW EX.
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
I'm using ADW also. Have you noticed any difference between your setting above, and the Megamemory 1 setting, which is supposedly a bit more conventional?
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I haven't tried 1, as the 40 mb free turns me off. What do I know though. If my memory serves me correctly, the values are the same as the now deceased gaming option.

On an aside, and slightly related, I've given up on widget locker for this phone. Too many problems...
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
Well, it's hard to know which settings are best. And, of course those settings that are best for one phone's configuration may not be best for another, even on the same model phone. So I guess I'll stay with MegaMemory #1 for a while and watch my free memory and see if any more sluggishness arises. If it does, I'll give #2 a try.

Are you rooted? Because the stock 2.3.3 has a weird, more restrictive EPST.

If you are rooted, flash a 2.2 ROM

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kippswanson:
Hi all.

I just today discovered that at some point in the past, while backing-up/restoring all my SMS/MMS, that I had duplicated a TON of them. I think somewhere on the order of a couple thousand. I've played with a ton of different ROMs, sometimes flashing every day, or even multiple times a day. What can I say, I'm a ROM junkie.

Anyway, not totally sure when, but somewhere along the way this happened. I've used MyBackup Pro, SMS Backup +, and something else I tried once I can't remember. I think it was MyBackup Pro that did it. I think I tried the merge option or whatever it was.

Well, however it happened, here I am now. It's a huge giant PITA. How can I get rid of the dupes? I want to keep the MMS'es, along with the "links" or whatever so they'll show in the actual SMS threads. I saw SMS Backup & Restore that will check for dupes while restoring, but it doesn't support MMS.

I looked around and couldn't find a solution that sounds like it would work for this specific problem. If there's something out there and I missed it, I apologize. So anybody got anything?

Thanks.:)
[XPERIA X8 General] darkvision:
The X8 is a good phone, but have a problem...

The RAM!!!!

the ram is very little!!

I think that only solution at this problem is SWAP!

I've a question.

Swap is possible on X8?

The Kernel is compatible?

If now the answer is NO, in future with Bootloader Unlock

can be possible??

Thank you for the answer and sorry for my english :D
[XPERIA X8 General] fanox:
I think any android phone is swap capable, however our kernel doesn't support it. And yes, if our beloved devs bypass the bootloader and someone will make swap capable kernel, it will work :-) .
[XPERIA X8 General] Mr. Hat:
There is actually thread on this topic, it's called something like "How to add more RAM to our tiny devices".

Anyway, swapping doesn't give you more RAM, besides, android has it's own way to deal with RAM. For more, check the mentioned thread.
[XPERIA X8 General] darkvision:
Thank you...i'll wait for bootloader unlock ;)

The thread is useless :mad:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radji:
I've had his replacement Epic for 7 days now. The first evening I brought it back from the Sprint store, no problems. When I left the house the next day I had only driven about 2 blocks from my house before I started getting the Forced Close vibrations/crashes & partial restarts. That was with EC05 stock, no modifications. Since then I have flashed EC05 Plus, EF02, and EF02 Plus, trying each version with each of the EC05, EF02, and EF10 modems. Each time I flashed I went into CWM and wiped the cache 3 times, as well as the cache partition and dalvik cache. There were no problems or errors when flashing (at least none that Odin reported) so I can only assume its a new conflict with something the ROM's don't change/update or this new phone's hardware is faulty.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
If it did this right out of the box when you brought it home, it is a bad phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radji:
Muchas garcias. I figured it was probably a bad phone, just needed confirmation. So if I Odin back to EC05 and use the PIT file to repartition, will that eliminate all evidence that I rooted my phone (or at least any that the repair techs could see)?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Wait, did you root and put a custom ROM on your phone? You said the night you got it the issues happened. I was wondering your setup at the time because I have had random issues similar to yours.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radji:
No, this problem started with stock EC05. I rooted and flashed custom ROM (EC05+, EF02) in hopes it would correct the problem. But it has not. The night I recieved this replacement the phone did not act up. It was the next day when I drove away from my house that it started to behave weird. The phone was still on EC05 ROM at that time with no rooting.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Ok, then that does sound like a bad phone. If the phone is doing the multiple vibrate thing, something is wrong. Especially if it does that on stock setup
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radji:
So then my final question: if I Odin back to EC05 and use the PIT file to repartition, will that eliminate all evidence that I rooted my phone (or at least any that the repair techs could see)?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] orlean:
Hello,

Most tablet owners will store valuable and/or personal files on their tablets. I belive no one wants his data to be stollen, right?

I solved this problem on my laptop using Truecrypt.

However no truecrypt is available for android :(.

The solution for android is Luks manager (available on the market).

However (again however) in order luks manager to work it requires the kernel to be DM_CRYPT capable.

I have no idea what this is. Just I know a kernel must be compiled in such manner that this to be part of it.

So, is it possible when compiling next kernels to put this in?

Thanks

encrypting entire tablet vs. secure mounting like Truecrypt

@sassafras_

I read the link and I sent it to the author of Luks Manager - the thing that acts as Truecrypt for android devices.

Here is the discussion on the matter between us:

http://nemesis2.qx.net/forums/index.php/topic,60.0.html

here is the description of his software:

http://nemesis2.qx.net/pages/LUKSManager

I think that Truecrypt conception is much better than encrypting the entire tablet, which I personally find to be clumsy and not useful:

1. You encrypt the entire tablet, that is slow.

2. (More important): You decrypt the tablet when turning it on. On the other hand, with Truecrypt conception you mount the sensitive data when you need it, after that you can unount it. I.e. it is possilble to use the tablet without exposing the data.

@cosine83 & @frosty5689 - Guys, everyone is free to choose the way he keeps senstive data.

@cosine83 - it is a plus to keep whatever you want wherever you wish, provided it is protected, includingly on portable device.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
You're asking for someone to make a workaround to a non-problem.

Encrypting the entire tablet is not clumsy - it is built into the OS and is persistent. It takes about two minutes to set it up.

It isn't slow - if you read the entire article you see a 20% speed decrease for reads, and almost no speed penalty for writes. This is slower but certainly not slow.

If you're concerned about security, doesn't it make sense to have a password to work with the tablet? With the built-in solution, you must enter a PIN each time you unlock the device. This is the most secure and minimally intrusive. Much less than mounting an encrypted volume each time you want to interact with sensitive data and then having to unmount it when complete.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jonitfcfan:
+1, my tablet is encrypted using Honeycomb's built-in encryption engine, and I have no qualms with performance considering that all data is decrypted on the fly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Magnesus:
How long is the PIN? Does it contain letters? If it's only numbers and short it can be hacked in hours if not minutes.

Also - has anyone tried if HC works with linux encrypted (with DM_CRYPT) external drives? I don't have USB adapter to check it. Hm, or maybe you could encrypt microSD with DM_CRYPT on linux and use it with Transformer?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jonitfcfan:
It doesn't have to be a PIN, mine is protected with a password containing letters and numbers. The only slight concern I have is that for some reason the password itself can't be longer than 16 characters :confused:.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] orlean:
misunderstanding

@sassafras_ "You're asking for someone to make a workaround to a non-problem."

You do not understand what I mean, when I say encrypting the entire device is clumsy. I am not talking about speed. I am talking about conception.

I will try to explain once more, please do try to understand, if you want.

I do not want to encrypt the entire tablet. Did you ever use TrueCrypt? It makes a containter. It contains all your valuable files. When you need them you simply supply a password and mount the container to the file system. It appears like device. Encrypting entire tablet is so far from this conception that I am getting very frustrated to explain this again and again.

For example, if your friend wants to check his email on the tablet, if you hand it over he will have access to all your files. Unlike that with the TrueCrypt method you would simply unmount the container and you will be safe to give it whoever you want to.

Yes, I also had the power button stop working. And, to make matters even better, I got into CWM (or CMW or whatever) to tried to put stock OS back on and got STUCK there. No power buttton, no ability in CWM to go to Backup menu to reflash stock, and no ability to reboot from the main menu!

The power button is cheap, cheap, cheap; you may have trouble getting it fixed if you've rooted (because rooting kills the warranty) and can't reflash stock.

30 days is the return option from newegg, then there is always the Asus warranty (you can rma it).

[HTC Sensation] mjm128:
I just got the sensation today. (I'm coming from nexus one running cyanogenmod). There's really only a few things about sense 3.0 that I like. The camera app, the lockscreen, some of the widgets, and the quick notification widgets (although I like cm7's implimentation MUCH better). Anyways I'm hoping that once the bootloader gets unlocked we'll be able to get cyanogenmod on it, but until then is it possible to get a few stock apps on the sensation?

The only things from sense I'd maybe like to keep in a more "stock rom" would be the camera app and the lockscreen. Everything else I don't really care for. =\

I want the these apps.

* Gallery

U don't like the smart dialer? It's leagues better than the stock dialer...
[HTC Sensation] mikebeatrice:
I made the same transition as you. At first I hated the dialer and contacts, but they've grown on me.

However that gallery does suck total nuts. You can go in the market and download gallery 3d which is (as far as i can tell) the standard gallery you're used to. I'm using it and it feels right at home.

I absolutely can't wait until we can have CM7.1 on this thing.

Also.. is it just me... or are you totally missing the trackball? I keep trying to adjust the cursor with it when editing text just to get disappointed that it's not there...
[HTC Sensation] mjm128:
No...I hate it. I've accidentally called the wrong person already because it doesn't ask if I want to call. Also it isn't showing contacts pictures when calling? Wtf? It just looks ugly to me compared to the stock android dialer. The contacts app is worse. AOSP contact app is so much simpler looking and just all around better.

I hate the gallery app, it sucks so much. Also i've taken a few pics that auto upload to google+ and it shows the date it was taken as jan 1st 1970. WHatttt?

I've only had it for 8 hours so far, and i've already done that at least a dozen times. I used the trackball just for going back a little to make corrections. Going to take a bit to get use to, but in time I will.

I can't wait for CM7.1 on the sensation. Sense to me is just ugly. I like gingerbread's status bar, and the notification widgets in cyanogenmod so much better than sense...It's ugly. Also I don't see the point of putting the recent apps in the pull down bar....

Good thing for launcherpro plus :D
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
I am also hunting for the AOSP style dialer...initially when the MT4G came out and was rooted you could just push the contacts/dialer apk to system/app and change the permissions and it would work. I have had no such luck with the Perma-Temp root on the Sensation...
