Do you know any app that can be used to know which apps are running and how much cpu are using to know what is lagging the system when this happens?

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 AM ----------

I have a bug in camera I think in v05. Sometimes I take several photos and some seem to get mixed or something like that... I attach a sample.

Trying to reproduce the bug I have just had a freeze.
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
You can try Memory Usage & CPU Usage. They both free in Market.

I'm having nothing but FC when ever I try and view the gallery.

Am trying a fresh wipe and install, any ideas as to whats causing it? Pretty annoying not being able to view any pics
[Desire Android Development] dublinz:
Hi there did you try to FIX PERMISSIONS, sometimes helps with FC
[Desire Android Development] Zafatron:
Been using this rom since v02. The lag problems are almost non existent, yet ram still drops to around 63mb until I use the task killer to get back to around 123mb. Ever so often the phone will freeze and I'd have to pull the battery.

As every knows the cameras still a bit buggy, last night it crashed on me after a couple of pictures but I'm sure it'll get fixed soon. The 720p recording is odd, it records in a abnormal ratio so its really, really stretched. I've fiddled with the settings but no avail..

----

Now, the only major issue I have with this brilliant rom is the ridiculous battery drain!? I left it to charge during the night, reached a 100%, took it off charge and 4 hours later its down to 73% :confused: I must point out I was asleep, so the phone wasn't being used.

Now; all my sync settings are set to ensure they don't suck the life out of the battery. But the battery drain persists, I'd be lucky to get 8 hours out of it.

I changed the rosie.apk and fusion.apk for the Bliss versions, as I want the Runnymede shortcut widget. So I'm thinking maybe that may be causing the drain?

Sorry for the long post, I love this rom- I just want some good battery life, any suggestions? Many thanks in advance guys

When I play music with earphones if I click on beats in the status bar, it FC and I cannot enable clicking again.

By the way, I don't really know what beats is for. I suppose it makes sound better, but does it have any sounds settings that can be adjusted?

Enviado desde mi HTC Desire usando Tapatalk

Edit: I've found that Beats audio is more or less useless and more marketing than anything else: http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/13/htc-sensation-xe-with-beats-audio-review/. It's better to have a player with equalizator, like PowerAMP.

USB connection not working here. When I plug the phone to my computer, nothing appears ; it just start charging.
[Desire Android Development] sandervanzijl:
So i am now an v03 with stock hboot (s-on)

and i think i need to change something. i am trying to see if v5 solves my problem. so some feedback/advise would be appreciated.

the sense part of this roms works briljant. fast, good graphics etc.

however it lags a lot on other programs. especially after some time of use. killing all apps with the taskmanger does not help.

this afternoon i was trying googlemaps which was so slow that after i moved my finger i had to wait before anything happened. when i did something else before the change it just got messed up more.

Pressing the off button also took some time to work. you press the power button, but response is later then expected. so you press it again, only so the phone reacts twice and turns the screen off again.

I am reading quite a lot of posts with people having issues in slow running programs.

is it a setting that needs changing, or is this software just a little too much for our desires?

does v5 have better performance?
[Desire Android Development] dublinz:
Hi there, I did had similar problem with v3, but with v5 no problem whatsoever. Today is day 2 of v5 and current mem stat 98 MB (after kill all 145 mb).

In regard to battery, i have 10 hours of heavy usage(45 min navigation, 1.15 min talk, reading emails over network and wi-fi, couple sms), so i am good.
[Desire Android Development] Mr Revhead:
Ok so did a complete wipe and reinstall. Checked gallery. worked fine. Used Titanium back up to restore my apps and data and gallery FC again.

Went back into Titanium and wiped data from gallery and it's working again.

So something in the data from my backup (done whilst on Leedroid) didn't like this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] asestar:
Dont make backup of stock system apps in Titanium.. only of user apps and settings.
[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
Hi,

I like this rom (stock hboot version) but more than sometimes it lags, like when wakeup from standby (by me or by an incoming call...) and I cannot move ring immediately, or when I tap an app and it takes near 10 seconds to start...

I understood that these lags there are also because dalvik cache is on the sd, a 8GB SanDisk ultramobile class 4 card.

So I decide to buy a faster one, a Samsung 8GB class 10 plus (declared 24r/21w MB/secs, 18r/15w MB/secs tested on pc with h2tests !!).

Also I'm trying to find best value for my usage for params like lowmemorykiller and read_ahead_kb, so I comment relative instructions in 97optimize, and now they are lowmemorykiller ROM standard and 1024 for read_ahead_kb...

Now is much more better, faster response, ring after wakeup moves immediately, apps starts in a second (sometimes in 2 or 3 secs maybe because it is not in memory...), another music !

Ciao.
[Desire Android Development] []v[]o:
Where did you change that? In what file? I have the same problem as you. I also have the same class 10 card as you!
[Desire Android Development] johns1982:
I have been using V5 since the 8th few things.

Found rom to be a small bit laggy so i flash the dalvik to sd patch from coolexe runnymederom. Im using class 10 card and it made the rom a bit more responsive.

Also used the v6 supercharger ram script rom is very quick and responsive now.

thank you for the great rom michael
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
Can you pls share the patch and the script?

EDIT: I found the script, michael, I think that if this makes your ROM quicker enough, you should include it to your next update..here is the link:

Works fine here. Did u restore any titanium backup of system apps? Try reflashing.
[Desire Android Development] human75:
i never made this script working:-).you guys should be genius or i am so stupid:D
[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
The file I changed, with comment ##, is /etc/init.d/97optimize, and now is:

#!/system/bin/sh

# SD speed Patch
##if [ -e /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb ]; then
##	/system/xbin/echo "2048" > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
##fi

# Tweak Memory
##if [-e /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree ]; then
##	/system/xbin/echo "1536,2048,4096,8192,12288,24576" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
##fi

##if [-e /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj ]; then
## /system/xbin/echo "0,3,5,7,14,15" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj
##fi
...

After change reboot.

Then you can use SD Booster to speed up read of sd card and A2SDGUI to change how low memory killer task works (note that last one list settings after reboot).

Now I have 1024 for SD speed up and rom default lowmemorykiller (that means I haven't for now user A2SDGUI).

Try to find best value for you.
[Desire Android Development] Zafatron:
Using the supercharger script as well as moving the dalvik cache helped a fair bit. RAM will still drop to around 60-70mb but lag is almost non existent. Some apps will take a second or two to load.

Now to focus on battery life... also can we please get the quick launch widget fixed? I find using the Bliss fusion.apk and Rosie.apk rinse my battery
[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
Move dalvik cache was my 1st try but expert user here told that with stock hboot there is not enough space, so I start with change the SD card with a class 10...

I will also check supercharger...
[Desire Android Development] mobilio:
If I am already using Cm7 hboot, shall I try move dalvik cache to SD - ext ?
[Desire Android Development] dhunzi10:
Which setting should I use for V6 supercharger ? I used the 6th one (balanced 3).
[Desire Android Development] johns1982:
Yes you should if you have a class 6 sd card or more
[Desire Android Development] johns1982:
When you run the script if you read it, it does tell you 512hp which is option 7
[Desire Android Development] mobilio:
So, it could let you have more memory space, no matter what hboot we have?

The only concern would be the speed of the card. ..
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
I am curious about something: i have noticed that people, facebook,facebook for htc sense,notes and scribble run constantly,using our few precious mb of RAM! I tried removing all sync settings but they keep restarting..even tried start up managers but no luck

I was wondering,first of all,why the h*ll does even scribble exist in this rom? I thought it was for the use of htc pen for htc flyer.. is there any way to safely remove scribble,notes, my uploads, htc message upload, WITHOUT having FCs or other problems?

[Desire Android Development] dhunzi10:
I don't really understand the supercharger script, how it works and how make it work. Option 7 is multitasking, but it doesn't seem to be working. Can you quickly explain me what's the right way to enable it ?

I don't even know what "512 hp" means. Sorry for my silly question.
[Desire Android Development] mobilio:
is the RCTweaks still apply? Seems both SystemUI adn framework-res updated :)
[Desire Android Development] 3f1f37:
Can someone check if the "dark pics" issue might have been resolved.

By "dark pics" i mean the flash going off before the shutter, this only applies when taking pics in dark areas with stock Sense camera.

Should be option 8 or 9?

I flashed this ROM about 4-5 hours back.

The dark pics issue remains. Also camcorder is unable to record in 1280x720 resolution. The camera app exits when I press 'Record'. But 800x480 resolution works.
[Desire Android Development] tropical cactus:
Option 8 works quite well. Apply and reboot.
[Desire Android Development] mobilio:
Do I need to run the script every reboot? Or I should mark "run at boot"?
[Desire Android Development] tropical cactus:
No, only run as root.

Edit: settings will remain. Also, you'll need to remove 96 screen scaling and 97 optimize from system\etc\init.d if it's in your rom version for supercharger to work.
[Desire Android Development] []v[]o:
I was wondering, I want to upgrade from V5 to V6, what do I have to do then? Just do a Dalvik.cache clear and install the rom? Will I have lost my programs and settings by doing so?

thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
Just wipe dalvik-cache and install the ROM, this should be enough and you will not losing yr apps and settings.

You will lost them only when you wipe data or factory reset.
[Desire Android Development] jazzjeppe:
Hands down the best rom i've used so far battery-wise. Beats cm7 any day! Many thanks devs
[Desire Android Development] []v[]o:
thanks a lot mate!
[Desire Android Development] Mr Revhead:
Yep as above, did it last night and no worries.

Just beaware the first boot is very very long and it will sit on the HTC splash screen for like 10 minutes so don't be tempted to pull the battery or anything. Also for the first 30 mins or so it's pretty laggy and takes a bit to settle down. Once it does though it's very very cool. I've used CM7, Leedroid, Redux and one or two others and this is my fav so far.
[Desire Android Development] flafel:
Is there chance to have arabic keyboard?
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
Michael i suggest that in your next releases you include google maps mod by ownhere,for free worldwide navigation,i flash it every time but its better to have it anyway instead of the normal apk,for all the users abroad :D

Also, if i want to customize the rom by removing some apks from the zip, can i do it with winrar or do i need another program?i once did it with winrar and the flashing could not be started. Finally,if i remove the apks i dont need do i havy to make a full wipe or dalvik cache will suffice?

Cheers,

[Desire Android Development] []v[]o:
I've updated to v6. I don't know what it is exactly, but the rom is soo much snappier and quicker!

Thanks a lot!
[Desire Android Development] dhunzi10:
I'm having this error message (see attachement). Does it mean supercharger didn't work ?

I updated the new version, this seems the best and doesn't lag at all. But the weather widget still doesn't recognise my current position, the video recorder still crashes when recording in 720p and there is no icons on the lockscreen as showed on the screen capture. Have I done something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] jory9:
Is 3D sagaS bein updated soon?
[Desire Android Development] kazgor:

also i 2nd a previous post, what is the scribble service?

also how can we remove facebook chat from starting up.
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
After a quick lookup I think that scribble is a service that is used in htc flyer and concerns the htc pen, so pretty useless in our phone, but I am not sure that removing it wont create any issues with htc sense. Hope michael will give us his lights, or anyone that knows more than me.

At the moment the issues is a bug with 720p recording :mad::confused::o

[Desire Android Development] Mr Revhead:
Ok I am having constant staus bar FC.

Started after installing v6.

Whilst running v5 I installed the "Framework_res - CM7 (Battery green dots and percent, other smilies)" and the "recent apps" It ran fine.

Then I updated to v6 by just a dalvik wipe and it that status bar broke.

So I did a complete wipe, installed the above before rebooting.

Still broke.

Did another wipe, installed v6 rebooted before installing the above and it was broke from fisrt use.

Anyone else having issues?
[Desire Android Development] miguel_pucela:
I've tried it extracting and installing after the v6 ROM and results:

* Video HD still FCs.

* Video SD has "frying eggs" sound.

* Photos ok but FC after each capture.

P.S. The ROM is very smooth by now.

P.S2. Applications and plug ins in HTC Hub never connects (in any version of ROM).
[Desire Android Development] miguel_pucela:
Hot restart does not work (v06).

In this version when I restart phone it asks for "encrypted password". What is this and what is it for?
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
Well indeed 720p stops after 2-3 seconds of videorecording.

Also the same thing happens after taking a photo, both close and take you to homescreens but without FC error.

In v05 I had no problems in taking photos, to be honest my phone took great photos compared with previous GB Roms that i had.

One problem with v05 and v06: After all FB contacts are synced, they are linked with the google contacts BUT there are no FB photos of the contacts, can you please help on that? I tried removing and adding again the account, but no luck.

In fact, I think that the problem has to do with the new HTC authorization for Facebook account, when I add the account the notification pops up, then loads and disappears, but in the first runny rom that I tried I remember asking me and me allowing it. is there any way to do this again somehow?? :mad::mad::mad::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
@ Thanito

The htc authorisation runs once only. After you already authorised before, it will not ask again. Unless you remove the authorisation in facebook web then it will ask again
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
Thats what I thought so..yet still why only less than half of my contacts linked to fb have photos? This only happened in v05 and v06. In v03,04 and all the other AceS ROMS I never had this problem
[Desire Android Development] Mr Revhead:
It takes time to sync. It's not instant. Can take a few hours to happen.

That's what I have found in the past.

Are you all having issues with status bar? or is it ok? Mine is 100% broke and I can't fix it :mad:
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
With my internet connection all syncing process has finished a 15mins ago, but no photos in all the contacts. If I go to People and see one contact that has no photo, if i press view profile and open it with either fb for htc sense or FB app, there is a picture. Really WEIRD!

As for the status bar, I have no issues at all, but ROM feels really laggy atm, so I ll wait until tomorrow morning and if it is still lagging I will either make a clean install(full wipe etc), or restore my nandroid backup of v05.
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
Do you tick the sync all when you first setup your fb app account? Maybe as said by Mr Revhead, it takes some times to complete.
[Desire Android Development] thanito:
Yes I did..Well I hope so but this started in v05 and I was using it for several days and it didnt want to settle..:p:mad:

@michael: after flashing the camera zip that you posted, photos taken become corrupt as well..
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
Out of curiosity, I just remove the fb ac and re-add it, this time choose sync all (as I normally do not sync contact), all the fb contacts/photo are shown in the Phonebook within 15 min sync. So no problem for me.

No idea why it is not working for you.
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
Not sure any worth to use this old camera.apk, at least no fc in 720p recording for me. Attached here if someone want to try it, not really compare the picture quality with the current app so cannot comment on that.

The solution for FB contact sync was to go to FB app in friends list and wait for all the images to appear.

The downside of this way: For the first time ever, contacts storage in apps has 59mb data!!! and this way my phone only has 6mb free right now! FML
[Desire Android Development] magikmichael:
No.... but you can play PS3 games with this rom.

[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
The pictures too dark since flash it is not in syncro with capture is solved ?

And a noob question:

When we install a rom upgrade (ie from v5 to v6) and the new one has app update (ie youtube, adobe, etc.) the same update previusly downloaded from market and stored in SD are automatically removed to free space ?
[Desire Android Development] mobilio:
Anyone can confirm if RCTweaks is working on v06?
[Desire Android Development] magikmichael:
I already confirmed it. It is working
[Desire Android Development] PlayPetepp:
They're just replaced.
[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
Thanks...but maybe I was not clear since my poor english...

I made the examples:

- rom v05 with GoogleMaps 5.10 (random version), so in internal store.

- then update GMaps from market to 5.12, so it goes into SD (since A2SD+)

- then update rom to V06 that has already GMaps 5.12, but in internal store.

What happens to GMaps 5.12 stored in SD, is it removed automatically to free space ?

Thanks again.
[Desire Android Development] PlayPetepp:
Same issue as with market update. It isn't removed from sd so it stays there. Nothing gets deleted in /data and /sd-ext partitions after flashing a rom without full wipe. Only /system is formated. You can, obviously, delete the one from /sd-ext to save space, but you'll have to do it yourself. And don't delete the app through uninstaller of any kind, go to /sd-ext/app_s and delete it manually.
[Desire Android Development] fblasot:
Ok, this is what I was expected and you confirm.

So from time to time a manually delete can help to recover free space on SD.

Thanks.
