Yes pika, I did for a while. Then since yesterday, I brought it back to 44MB, 60Swappiness, 160ZRam as it seemed more stable for me. Lagginess though still appears once a day, so I have to reboot once per day. I had better performance with Simplicity 0.4 and Talondev 0.4.4.22 with your S98 scripts and the old ZRam settings (44 Hidden Apps, 160 ZRam, 50%). I upgraded to Simplicity because of overglow, and the announced enhancements in the upgraded version. Now it's speedy after boot. Leaving it after several hours seems to make it lag, like when it awakes from prolonged periods of sleep, since many times of the day I'm not using the phone. But then when that happens, nothing seems to revive it, even drop ZRAM or caches. Although this was the same even with previous versions, where dropping cache didn't really change much. A reboot was the only way to make it speedy again....at least for a while.

Let me research on this and get back to you :)

You are a great testcase for this and I would like your help to test some things I have in mind ;)

Let me know if you agree to test and I'll give some beta versions of ThunderBolt! that I think will solve the problem :)

Edit: I have to research on it first. Give me a day for it :)

I can't get a working wifi, too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] geri.st:
i sometimes have the same issue... though i didn't change anything in those settings yet.

but once i couldnt answer a call, cause the phone lagged.

it's getting slower and slower, and then it freezes, so that only pushing power button until it starts again can help

if you need a second one, i could help, if not, i would be thankful, if so could link me the solution :D

Hello,

I am now 2 days on 1.5.1 and the battery is very fast empty.

Can someone give me tips or help me with this? The rom is good, only the battery drain is a pitty
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Can you elaborate more of the wifi problem? Can't tether? Or wifi stays in Obtaining IP address?

What kernel are you using? Semaphore? sherpa was explaining about the memory leaks of Talon kernel.

How long was your display time vs the amount of time your battery can last?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ikkuh007:
I do woth the battery around 1 day. Yesterday in the evening the battery was full, tomorrow after a night drinking beer the battery was 60%

Install BetterBatteryStats (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809) to see what's draining your battery. ROMs can only do so much to drain your battery. Most likely its an app that is constantly awake.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sherpa25:
Sure, as long as my data won't be at risk such that I'd have to reinstall all my apps again (and re-setup) :D I guess that's why I rarely install ROM's/versions/etc. that require wipe. Performance has always been priority to me, while battery only secondary since I can charge nightly anyway.

Where can I find the wallpaper used in this ROM? I just flashed a theme and now I can't find the wallpaper I used to have anymore. The dark one with the droid on it. Where in the .zip file is it located?

I think it is stored somewhere in a .apk file in /system/app but I'm not sure in which one..

Found it! :) It's stored in framework-res.apk if anyone's interested..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vtec_:
This rom is amazing.. I've tried to switch to GB twice from froyo and both experiences with deodexed roms have been terrible and laggy. This is just as fast as darkys 9.5 though..

Good work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
You can't right now :p I'll add the AOSP lockscreen asap, cause I'm laying in bed now ^^
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grieflar:
Been on a looooot of ROMs lately, including Juwe's, Darky's, GingerReal, Galnet MIUI and most recently Jetpack. They all have their pros and cons, Jetpack is a great ROM in almost every aspect, but as a hardcore surfer the broken browser irritates me to death, and the latest update made it terribly slow.

This ROM is fast, lightning fast, and very responsive with Semaphore.

Just missing EDT :) (MIUI lockscreen is awesome)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Hmm, did you move the app after the donotdelete.zip was created? I'll try to reproduce the problem asap and let you know what might be the problem.

d0ggy thanks for this great rom! I love it!

But why it looks completely different then your screenshots?

I don't see the transparent notification bar, I don't see those (not so pretty :P) icons...(I prefer the stock as I see now :))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
I changed the notification bar to a more beautiful one :p

To change the dock icons (that you don't like :p), you have to apply simple theme.zip in TW launchers preferences ;)

@DT3CH

Indeed, I had the same problem with the program. The unzip.bat would unzip and delete donotdelete.zip, which is causing your error. Simply renaming the file to donotdelete.bak helped cause unzip.bat only unzips rar and zip files... I edited the program to include this fix.

I am still on froyo, but looking really closely to this rom to finally switch to gingerbread.

The ROM has everything included that I am looking for (camera fix, nice kernel, some bloatware removed etc.)

d0ggy, the one thing that can really make the package complete (in my eyes) is to make full wipe, clean install, Odin package that would flash on top of any ROM/Kernel that a phone currently has (froyo and ginger alike) (MilkyS.Mod does that).

I just feel like completely wiping my phone, repartiotioning it and flashing the full package on top.

Please, let me know if you are planning to add such 'simplicity' package;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
I could try, shouldn't be too hard I suppose ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
What they forgot to tell u is u need to flash a custom kernel at that point to get cwm recovery where u then need to copy the rom zip to flash it.

It's.... AMAZING!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] westcoastricho:
Been using the rom for a few days now. Everything is pretty good. Quite stable it seems.

One drawback so far is the battery consumption it seems. Getting almost 2 days, but with nothing on, no data network, no background data, anything. It's with minimal use, the main battery drainer, over 50% is at android system, which seems to be keeping it awake... for 10 hours at a time sometimes.. bit unfortunate, not sure what the problem is there. Anyone else having battery drain problems? Not sure how long it would last if i had data network on all the time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Onraad:
I don't have any battery problems but it seems to me that something isn't right if Android system is using 50% of your battery. I don't think with minimal use Android system should be awake that long. I charged my battery a couple of hours ago and after 3.5 hours, Android system used 7% of my battery: CPU usage 3m17s, Stay awake 7m58s. Maybe you should do a clean install and check if the problem is still there?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] geri.st:
oh, yes i'm using semaphore...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] westcoastricho:
Hmm yeh, i can understand why my android system is relatively higher than my other processes as i was barely using the phone, so display was low etc. But when it was awake for that long, seemed odd.

Im running it with Semaphore 1.8.0 aswell, didnt have any problems with 1.7.5 with JVS Roms, but guess can't rule it out.

Yours stats sound about right, how long does your battery usually last?

Yeh i might have to give another install a go... otherwise might just try stock JVT with semaphore, and see if the rom is doing it, or combination of the kernel and rom..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
The Battery Usage scale is based on a 100% scale. It doesn't matter if Android System is at 50% or even 75%. Try looking at it from this perspective:

Battery Usage case #1:

Display 50%

Cell Standby 20%

Some app 20%

Android System 5%

...

...

Battery Usage case #2:

Cell Standby 50%

Android System 30%

Display 10%

Battery Usage case #3:

Display 30%

Cell Standby 20%

Android System 15%

Tell me, are the modems display faulty at case #1 and modem incompatible for case #2 and case #3 is teh bestest ROMlulz of all time?

No, they're all the same ROM, same phone and configuration. Case #1 only had 8 hours of battery life (as Display was at 5 hours++). Case #2 had only 10-20mins of display time and had a battery life of 2 days, also weak signal contributed to a high cell standby. Case #3 had a display time of 2 hours and good signal reception with 1.25 days of uptime.

Now, tell me, are all these cases faked? No. They're real and it all depends on how much you used your phone at certain situations. Android System will always drain a constant number of your battery no matter what (even in SGS2). How much or how little (ratio of drain vs battery life) depends on how long your battery life is.

If your sleep time is a lot, your Android System will seem like it drained more but in real life, it could be draining e.g. (using random numbers):

50mv per hour at sleep.

70mv per hour at wake.

Display will drain 500mv (just a random number) per hour at medium brightness.

Cell standby assumed to have 75mv, 90mv, 200mv per hour of drain without packet data, with packet data and with HSDPA respectively.

Assuming battery size is 4200mv.

Without doing anything (airplane mode) and 0min display, your battery will drain in 3.5 days.

Battery Usage:
Android System 90%

If you had 2 hours of display + on network all the time without packet data, your phone will die in 21 hours.

Battery Usage:
Cell Standy 45%
Android System 25%
Display 23%

Note: These numbers are not counted correctly, but what the hell :P

Now, is the Android System bugged? You tell me. Maths, learn to use it. :)

Also, check BetterBatteryStats to see what's been draining your battery when it's asleep.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] westcoastricho:
I appreciate the in-depth example, and i can understand how the ratios can differ in certain situations. Also that %'s are out of 100 :) I'm not completely worried that my android system is at 50% when im barely using anything else.

My main worry is, why is it keeping the phone awake for 10 hours at a time.

I've used other roms before and gotten 4 days with the phone being able to sleep most of the time when not using it and with more actual use than i had this time round.

As Onraad said, the phone was used for 3.5 hours with the phone awake for 7 minutes.. that's what i would like to get back to if i can. (the funny thing is, he also said - "Android system used 7% of my battery: CPU usage 3m17s, Stay awake 7m58s." - for the whole 10 hours of the phone being awake, CPU usage was at 7 minutes... so im not stressing the phone out i dont think by any extent :)

Unless i have an app that is keeping the phone awake aswell, ill have to have a peek around.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Yeah, hence the BetterBatteryStats to check what's keeping your phone awake :)

I am now on 1.5.1. This one works pretty well. Thank you!

I have only one issue. Following a restore with MyBackup and the deletion of many google apps, the launcher does not display the apps in the right order (a-z). Moreover, there are certain gaps. How can I change that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
That's the Touchwiz launcher, not much can be done about it. You can try Go Launcher EX for example.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
I am still sticking to your ROM its GREAT. Same problem occurred again, Like before, when I flashed 1.5.1, the phone got stuck at initial SAMSUNG screen & wouldn't go ahead. I flashed semaphore 1.8.0 via Odin & its booting up even as I type. CHEERS.

PS : & like before, my phone wouldn't go into recovery, my only chance was Odin & Download mode.

Hey ranjib,

WiFi is working very good for the most simplicity users (including me ;) ). That's why I believe your problem is related to the direct upgrade from Hybrid ROM. Please do the following steps to exclude all problems concerning this point:

- Flash Stock JVT via ODIN

- Flash Semaphore 1.80 via ODIN

- do factory reset

- flash Simplicity 1.5.1 via CWM

If the problem still exist after doing these steps, you can send me a PM to start further analysis.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Hey Tusnal,

in my eyes it's no big improvement. I have been using ext2 with another kernel and only felt small improvements in file i/o.

But I have to mention, that I (and some other users) experienced problems with the ext2 partitions after some days/weeks of usage. For example one time I had to reflash the complete kernel/ROM-combination to boot up my phone again. ;) Because of this higher error rate I would recommend to stay with ext4.

When trying to convert to ext4 with ext4 app, i get stuck in a bootloop

any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
which kernel do you use? the app works for chainfire intramfs based kernels only
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Hey guys,

concerning your questions:

At the moment you CANNOT apply the thunderbolt script directly to Simplicity. Simplicity uses a special combination of tweaks/scrips (supercharger, system_tweaks a.s.o.) - so the direct application of the Thunderbolt scripts would lead to unbalanced settings with likely a lower phone performance. That's why I created the ZIPs to give you the opportunity to try Simplicity with the latest thunderbolt setup. But to include it correctly you have to use the scripts above.

The differences between Thunderbolt and the current Simplicity tweaks affect some paramters for VM, LMK, OOM and Scheduler. So if you apply the CWM-zip you can check how it influences your phones performance:

- overall performance

- 3D performance

- stability

- smoothness

- multitasking

- and other...

At the moment I can't find any striking advantages or disadvantages. But I'm interested in your opinion.

Bushido
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] suriya83:
hmmm i think i have the original kernel? i did like this: i installed jvs from samfirmware then i installed semaphore 1.8 then in recovery i installed simplicity 1.5.1 and then i did ext4 conversion from ext4 app. first time it just rebooted into cwm, second time it makes conversion and then goes into bootloop. this happened twice
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
this actually never happend to me. that you have to apply it twice is just normal but then... hmmm

have you recognized any errors during convertion?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Simplicity 1.5.1 is a JVT version - so it's better to apply stock JVT first.

But you could try to flash a kernel which comes along with voodoo lagfix (i.e. TalonDev) and try to convert back to RFS via CWM.
