[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] drdnght mrk lazarus:
I think it's because titanium backup is supplied with the simpligio+ rom (as a donated version)

so you'll have to remove it from /system/app/

before you can install a newer version

depends on how deeply rooted the app is in the rom...

on a different note.

does anybody have a simpler method of flashing the phone?

because of a2sd darktremor I have to reformat the ext2 partition of my sdcard of risk still having apps installed after a factory reset..

the easiest method I found now is:

rebooting in recovery

factory reset my phone

put sdcard in my computer

reformat the ext2 partition

put sdcard back in my phone

reboot phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SoulReaver75:
it's not so long work...

what I do:

1 - full backup apps and data using titanium

2 - take out sd card, put it in pc, format ext 2 partition

3 - factory reset mobile

4 - flash

5 - factory reset again

6 - put back sd card in

7 - install titanium

8 - enable darktremor

9 - restore all apps

10 - restore only needed data

now using adw I can backup and restore also home screen settings and icons, wondeful. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SoulReaver75:
Probably it's still too early to say that, but looks like my problems gone installing giopro lite.

To get rid of my clock, shoul I simply delete it from app folder and then install normal clock?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ZimniY:
I hope so) I'm planning to learn hard the inner structure of android firmware and improve my mods

Weather in stock "Clock.apk" depends on "GenieWidget.apk". So I removed them both =)

Sry for my bad English. I've no practice for about 3 years. I've just forget almost all)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SoulReaver75:
ok thanks, I will copy both. I'm using g-alarm, so I don't need another alarm, and I use clock widget in home :-)

Don't worry, many people here can't write a perfect english, me too. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] melorib:
I do have the paid version...

And I did delete and install again, same, no problems before I installed GioPRO 1.3...
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ZimniY:
"Clock Widget" is not the same as "Clock" =)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SoulReaver75:
mmm... so, what should I restore? :p

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] hamid3pnn:
thanks

i want back from GioPro 1.3 to giopro 1.2 Lite version ,

How do that?

and what is difference SimpliGio Plus rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ZimniY:
Clock Widget :) C.O.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ZimniY:
You should use Odin and do "Factory Reset" before and after flashing "GioPro 1.2 LITE" firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] sibiru:
Anyone here using GioPro 1.2 Lite by ZimniY ?

What's the different from GioPro 1.2 by Rachmat3?

I flashed my Gio with it but it make my Gio stuck on Galaxy Gio Pro screen. I've wait for long time but nothing happen so I flash to GioPro 1.2 by Rachmat3
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] sibiru:
Hmmm i just read your post ZimniY :D

So if i wanna flash GioPro 1.2 Lite from GioPro 1.2 (full) i've to Factory Reset then flashing it with GioPro 1.2 Lite...

Ram Optimizer Script by Juwe11

Ram Optimizer Script by Juwe11 all cradit goes to him.

[YOUTUBE]s5WRNmy1FBc[/YOUTUBE]

This script will make your RAM in the best optimization, the best optimization means the best balance between free memory, multitask, speed of launching apps and system speed. It means that you'll still have enough free memory (you'll have free memory as much as you need, because it is not good if you have really a lot of free memory, because Android's work with memory is different from other OS) and you can fully use your multitask, my script doesn't kill your app automatically when you minimize it. Your system and switching between apps or launching apps will be very fast.

Now you don't have to use Task Killer!

2. Method for creating

1) Download attached file (Juwe_RAM_Script.zip) unzip it and put it to /system/etc/init.d (if don't have a folder init.d create new folder using root explorer and name it init.d) with Root Explorer and set permissions to 777 (check all the empty options)(rwxrwxrwx), if you have in your init.d other script for RAM management for example Darky's rambooster, so delete it

2) Reboot your phone

How would you know that script is working ??? Download AutoKiller Memory Optimizer and check values:

LMK values

10MB, 16MB, 24MB, 48MB, 56MB, 72MB

VM values

50, 10, 5, 10, 90, 5

Yes, it's proved impossible so far to update firmware through Kies. :(
