GSF uses the keyboard from CM7, so I can't see how that could be true.
[Blade Android Development] Aef 101:
It just feels slightly less responsive, maybe it's just my big fingers ;)

I'd like to thank you for all of your efforts with GSF.

[Blade Android Development] wbaw:
Try using 16bit transparency in CM7 (settings > cm settings > performance settings). That is what makes some ui animations faster in GSF. With that setting CM7 is just as fast. It causes a couple of bugs (like a little display problem in the Facebook app), but you had those bugs in GSF. The dithering in CM7 works better than in GSF so it doesn't look as bad as gsf with 16bit transparency turned on (overscroll glow is ok), but it's still as fast.
[Blade Android Development] Reasec:
16bit transparency has no effect on app drawer open/scroll/close animations. Its still choppy.

2 Point

I have weaker signal on this rom than any other rom :/
[Blade Android Development] Gavin01:
this rom seems to work lovely for me......Battery life seems excellent even with wireless enabled and quite heavy usage.......

anyone tell me how i install the radio? as i cant find it....

Also one other thing sometimes the green light stays on?
[Blade Android Development] discy:
That's due to a bug in the kernel. you could install b26 or try install the old kernel.

But this rom is out of development

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18273709&postcount=138

Better switch to Cyanogenmod or another rom like f.e. Moldovan.
[Blade Android Development] Gavin01:
would those ones have as good battery life as this one?

i tryed cyanogenmod and didnt like it.

or how about this one?

update-cm-7.1.0.2-XperiaRay-ST18i-signed.zip

from cyanogenmods webs ite?
[Blade Android Development] wbaw:
That is for a different phone. You want update-cm-7.1.0-Blade-signed.zip or the latest nightly version from - http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=blade, because you have a ZTE Blade. You also need the Google Apps from http://goo-inside.me/gapps, otherwise there's no Android Market in CM7.

If anybody wants to fix the green led issue in GSF, it should be fixed in my latest kernel source code on my Github - https://github.com/John-Kenney/kernel-35 I haven't actually tested it, but it's using Tom G's fixed led patch for CM7 (that led on during sleep feature will be coming back to cm7 soon & it works properly now). You'll have to compile your own kernel & create your own boot.img, I'm not using GSF now & I'm busy building a website, so I'm not going to bother. If anybody wants to test it out & post fixed gen1 & gen2 boot.img files then I'll update the first post. However, you should really switch to CM7.

Battery life in CM7 depends on your settings, your apps & how you use your phone. Some of the default settings lead to lower battery life, but it can be configured to have pretty good battery life. The main thing you want to change is the cpu governor should be 'ondemand' & the minimum speed should be 122.8mhz you can find that under cyanogenmod settings, 'use 16bit transparency' should be enabled too, that will make some animations a little smoother.
[Blade Android Development] Gavin01:
ill look into it thanks.

i do love the rom i have just the green light thing is annoying..

I dont under stand enough when you mention the kernal part:(
[Blade Android Development] lepidas:
I love this ROM,it's stable it's fast and it's minimal
[Blade Android Development] lepidas:
And to be honest I don't care about the green light that stays lit
[Blade Android Development] shears:
how can I enable the "screen off" animation?
[Blade Android Development] Mafioso:
Does this ROM support 2 way call recording ?

The software which came originally with my phone Dell XCD35 (indian rebrand of blade) had that feature but cm7 doesn't have it ?

well i flashed the new infused v2 beta 3 and i backed everything up with titanium backup. i was able to get all of my apps and data back except now when i open up my contacts, its empty. can anyone tell me how to properly backup my contacts so that this doesn't happen to me in the future?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Misterjunky:
re: contacts

There is a way to get your contacts back, BUT Only your contacts, no text, no call logs and so on.

Here is how to do it:

#1: Open your "Contacts" icon in the drawer

#2: Press the left bottom touch button on phone

#3: Select Import/Export

#4: Select Import from SIM card

#5: You can also try Import from SDCARD

if you already done a export to sdcard

in the past.

All done!

Have a great day,

Enjoy!

Please don't forget to give me a big THANKS if reading this was helpful to you!​
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jz3:

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davey818:
i have a question on the LCD screen density, currently im using stock density ive never changed it before, but am looking into changing it, does anyone have any recommendations of differnet LCD densitys to use? do i gain anything out of doing that, and will it decrease battery life?

Also i had one more question, its about perfmod, is there a reason NOT to use it? iit looks like it increases performance HUGE on your phone, whats the downside? and is the performance increase significant?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaydog:
Download LCDDensity from the market and try a few different settings. Just reboot to change back.

As far as perfmod, i think it can drain the battery faster, as can anything that increases performance, and apparently can cause some instability. I don't know for sure cuz I've never been without it.

Again just try it...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chef2:
Hi, so last night i tried to put gingerbread and serendipity on my friends captivate thats unlocked to tmobile.

All the odin package to install the bootloader and gb went well but when i flashed the kernal it just messed the functionality of the phone up and i had to odin back to stock.

He is on eclair still. I was told that it should work with tmobile. I dont have to put serendipity on but as an end result he does want gb rooted. So...is there any tmobile happy roms available that will get my gb rooted?

thanks in advance
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
all great roms here are "t mobile happy". What exactly went wrong in the process?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdahgary:
Any rom will work, as long as the phone is unlocked. I assume you already know that the cappy will be missing one of the bands for Tmo.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chef2:
ok, so all went smooth at first using odin to flash the bootloader and stock gingerbread. Next I went and used odin to flash the kernal and it installed properly and even showed up right in the settings as the right kernal.

After reboot these were the problems i encountered:

- home button didnt work at all

-when making a call and hitting send, the phone would turn off

-no data - no market or web connectivity

- other little things

the stock gingerbread was working fine after the first flash. can i flash any kernal to root or just retry the same one?

thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdahgary:
Sounds like you installed a i9000 rom. Double check your rom source.

[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
Basically it's an itsy bitsy super tiny Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR dongle that allows you to easily push files back and forth from your phone. I just bought this for 6.99 and now it's up to 14.99.

In short, it works terrific but you have to get the latest drivers from ASUS. The ones on the mini disc that it came with just would not work for me.

Here's a link on Newegg:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320057

And here's how I somehow got lucky with a great price and free shipping.

Disregard how the item is labeled 2.0. It's 2.1 + EDR.
[Motorola Droid X2] engineer14:
I bought mine today and downloaded the drivers from the website. I took over 1 min to transfer a 7 MB file.. Is that similar to your speed. I am currently using a tmobile vibrant.
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
Larger files definitely aren't that quick on Bluetooth but most of the time I'm just transferring a few pictures, an APK, documents, etc. If your transferring music and video files you are probably going to want to do that over USB or WiFi.

Hi,

I stumbled onto Tasker as a very extensive program to control your phone.

I would like to use it to switch off my data connection when the screen is off in order to save battery

Yesterday I uninstalled Juice Defender which i wanted to use for this but this gave me more battery use then without.

Normal battery usage on KG6 + ninphetamine 2.05 when screen is off is 1% per 2 hours

Does anybody succesfully use tasker on the SGSII?

Is it possible to shutdown the data connection when the screen is off ?

What is the battery usage of this app ?

A lot of questions but I hope someone can help me to answers
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Pet1981:
Hi obionenairobi,

I use tasker not only to shut down the data connection when the screen is off...I also use it to toggle the data connection all 30 minutes (when the screen is off) to receive emails.

Also I let tasker kill all running progs when I turn off the screen and disable the vibrate function when it's connected to a charger.

There are endless possibilitys to use tasker! =)

And the best: it doesn't drain the battery ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tenchi0205:
can share the profile/task?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Pet1981:
Sorry...don't know how and for killing running processes u have to make it especially for your installed apps anyway...but:

U only need to create the event "Display off"...u add the task "Mobile Data off"

For the same event u make the second task...add apps-kill app-and then select every app u want to kill when the screen is turned off. (U have to make it for every app which is a little bit annoying...but I didn't find a way to make it faster)

Create a second event "screen unlocked" and add the task "Mobile data on"

For toggling the data on every 30 minutes:

Add the event "display off"...then add the task "mobile Data toggle"

The properties for this task u set to: Launched Task Priority: 6

Cooldown Time: 30 mins (then the data will be turned on every 30 minutes when the screen is off)

Limit Repeats UNCHECKED!

So...hope I could help you =)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] raiderkilo:
Check WIKI on Tasker site
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Grevane:
Yeah as one of the other posts said, it's relatively easy to set an EVENT for DISPLAY OFF which runs a TASK to turn Data and Wifi off (Action Category = NET > Mobile Data & NET > WiFi). If you're rooted and deperately want to overcome Googles changes to GPS control, you can download an app called Secure Settings which will allow you to also do the same for GPS via the Plugin Task Actions.

Alternatively, you can always try Green Power which I switched to recently as JuiceDefender has too many bugs in it with Android 2.3.3/2.3.4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rami98:
I have a Droid X, a Droid Charge and my brother has an incredible 2. We both have chainfire installed and for some reason verysingle game plays many times smoother on the htc with the adreno 205 than on my charge with the sgx 540? any reason for that? even the games that are coded for tegra devices run on his so much smoother. i tried a game called falling fred, lags some on my charge, runs super smooth on the inc2, i have a galaxy tab 10.1 also runs super realy nice on that, and on my droid x it runs about the same as the charge. there is nothing wrong with my charge because ive played with 3 or 4 of them and they are all the same way. Any solutions?

[Verizon Droid Charge] neyenlives:
The SGX540 in these Samsung devices are underclocked severely. They are more capable but they can stand quite a bit of overclocking. Some devices come with the same gpu clocked at 385Mhz instead of 200Mhz.

The lag fix is ok but once we get a CM7 build it will look sloooooow. Been there done that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
Once we get an omgb/omfgb build, cm7 will look sloooow :p this phone seriously needs the mtd treatment tho

Sent from my froyo gummycharged charge w/imnuts otb kernel......bro.
[Verizon Droid Charge] neyenlives:
I think I would rather see CM7 implementation if for no other reason than their dedication to constant updates. And they are all pretty much the same mtd based thing. OMGB shouldn't be any faster than CM7 and it lacks features.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
Just my experience from the fascinate. Omgb and omfgb *seemed* smoother, not that cm7 was slow. And they pump out updates for their roms pretty regularly. If you don't think they're dedicated, then you don't know t3hh4xx0r.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
I bailed on the Fascinate just as both CM and OMG came out so I missed out on all the fun....
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
And what fun it was. Glitch kernel allowed gpu overclocking. **** was intense. 1.6ghz cpu overclock and aggressive undervolting were commonplace due to the stability that mtd brought.
[Verizon Droid Charge] neyenlives:
It's not that I think they aren't dedicated, but the system in place for CM7 updates is far more structured and doesn't depend on one or two peoples' dedication.

I was able to run mtd a week or so, was absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I could never overclock my Fascinate much before MTD. I was pulling 3000 quadrant scores at 1.4Ghz with a 233Mhz GPU clock speed i believe on the Glitch ML kernel and it actually run a good 8-10 hours that way to boot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rami98:
i refuse to have a phone that runs at less than its capabitlities. we need that gpu overclock! any devs can port it?
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
Then do something about it yourself. Glitch is an aosp kernel so porting isn't really an option until we have aosp roms to make use of it so that's quite a ways away. A gpu overclock may be possible on tw but I haven't ever heard of it being done and the devs capable of working on it probably have enough on their plate as it is. But who knows, maybe someone will pick it up I guess we'll see.

The loading bar stops at about 40%.

I've been waiting for about 15 minutes now, and its stil on those 40%.

Seems some Photons are finding a 3G Speed increase by a simple adjustment of settings...

I have tested this, and found it to work for me...however, NOT everyone is reporting a similar experience. So, give it a shot...and report your findings here for analysis. (My guess for the reasoning in different experiences would relate to tower proximity, etc)

The "Fix" is simple...

1. Head to "Wireless & Networks" in Settings Menu.

2. Go to "Mobile Networks"

3. Change "Network Mode" from "Any CDMA" to "Automatic"

4. Reboot

5. Test!!

nope its still cdma, just grabbing the strongest signal instead of focusing on a Sprint signal. Should not effect you roaming charges at all
