[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bigblue95z:
If you're swithing from app to app, and want to do it more quickly, hold the home button for a few seconds (pretty much anywhere, no need to go 'home' first). It will open up a list of the last 6 apps you've used. Pretty sure from the point you left off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DKS1282:
holding the home button does work pretty well, although sometimes it does not have the last couple apps I was using, mainly Go SMS pro. I am currently running S8 thought it was stable, guess i'll reflash and give this another go for a week, if not then its return to the IP and trade this back for the 4s. Thanks for the help!

Any suggestion on what rom to flash to?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Having THAT many apps FC on you is usually a sign that you did one of two things:

1) Forgot to wipe data/factory reset when installing a new ROM

2) Performed an improper Titanium Backup restore - restoring more than just "MISSING apps and data"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AaronStC:
Chase

email

Gmail

maps

market

netflix

web

I'm running Serendipity 8.1 and do not have any problems with these apps from your list. You may need to re-flash.

Edit: what Entropy said.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
any of them are good but I personally use UnNamed. You really should wipe your phone first. Thats probably why you have so many FC's. When you flash a new rom, make sure you do NOT restore system apps via Titanium Backup (if thats what you use).

i think thats exactly what happened because having that many FC's is not normal .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dayv:
To switch between running apps all you have to do is long press the home button - one press to see the last six open apps and your there.

Having the browser return to the home page every time just means you don't know what you are doing.

Being concerned about what is being held in ram its also a sign you don't know what you are doing. The memory chip where the ram resides, where you see a list of apps being held has to remain powered on all the time. Whether it is holding 250 MB of data, 500 MB of data or just 10 MB of data it will still be drawing the same amount of power. And just because an apps data is being held in ram does not necessarily mean it is running. Top see what us running you need to check cpu usage.

The only time to concerned about ram is if more than 85% is being used then you would start having problems. But this does not happen on our phones, and only would happen if you had something causing a major memory leak.

All of your force closes are related to you or your particular phone. I have maybe five fc's in a month and three of those happened while I was running cm7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] akira02rex:
Lot of user error here. I'm on the stock ROM with root.

Switch apps quickly by holding home.

If you use the back button to exit an app then you truly are exiting the app. Use home if you want it to start running.

Don't worry about ram usage. This device has 1GB and Android manages it very well without you ever having to worry.

I never have force closes unless it's the developers issue. If you're running from backed up apps then you can expect to have FCs. Install from fresh if you try a new ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dayv:
I think the main reason the op is having his browser reset most of the time is because the op is using some kind if task killer. This task killer is also probably the cause of a significant portion of the fc's being experienced.

There should be a forum rule against people who run task killers then complain about fc's, laggy apps, and problems with multitasking.

I mean it should be obvious running a "task killer" on a device designed specifically to multitask - it is so silly. Look at the two phrases side by side "task killer" "multitasking device" - can you see what I mean.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jmj12us:
I have upgraded to the Galaxy S2 from the Iphone 3gs. The long pressing of home button to bring up apps is something I did not know. Is there a thread somewhere to get this kind of information. Very helpful, thanks

Jim
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] akira02rex:
Not that I know of. There are little tricks like that and a good majority of people would never know of them I'm afraid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SPIDERTECH:
Samsung has a tips and tricks page specifically for the AT&T GS2 that may show you some things you didn't know. One thing I didn't know was that you can take a screenshot with stock by pressing the power button and the home button at the same time. I also didn't know you can access the clipboard to show everything you "copied" from text fields.

http://www.samsung.com/us/article/tips--tricks-galaxy-s-ii-at-t-

As far as the OP's issues, I have all of those apps except for chase and hootsuite installed on stock and I don't FC at all. For the browser concerns, you may just be opening a new window each time you run the browser from the app icon. Try zooming all the way out of the page and then pinch to zoom out once more and it will show you the windows you have open, or you can press the menu key and select windows. The icon for "windows" in the menu will have a number on it if you have more than one open.

[Galaxy 3 General] teuntje3:
I use Kyrillos 8.1

For me i can use it for more that 1 day. But i don't know how that is for you.

You can test a few rom's, and then look witch is the best for you, because it is for every one different!
[Galaxy 3 General] redolf:
I tested kyrilos no wipw version indroid v4 and v6 vivek and destiny which are crap

Edit:can anyone give me voltage for setcpu galaxy 3?
[Galaxy 3 General] Smonic:
If you want speed you flash a custom ROM as it includes all the tweaks etc. for speed. If you want long battery life you flash a stock ROM or a custom ROM which has not been overclocked. Many developers usually supply a non overclocked version of their ROM's. I think this would be best for you since you want speed and battery life. The last option would be setting appropriate profiles in SetCPU such as a screen off profile, a time profile if your phone stays on overnight and use a governor such as OnDemand or Conservative. I read that OnDemand is bad since it changes the CPU speeds too often which is somehow bad for the CPU. Not sure if this is true but i normally use Conservative.
[Galaxy 3 General] priyaavila:
of all the custom roms,kyrillos is the best..flash your phone with 8.2.1..prefer non-over clocked version over overclocked ones for battery longeivity and stability..kernels does matter too..nw g3 mod v2.0 beta 2 non oc gives better battery life
[Galaxy 3 General] Smonic:
Kyrillos' ROM is not the 'best'. Every ROM is the 'best' in different ways meaning all ROM's have their pros and cons! Don't listen to the guy in the quoted post. He is expressing his personal opinion due to his experience. However, everyone has different opinions and many people prefer other ROM's. If i were to give you a list of ROM's which are regarded as the 'best' by the majority of people on XDA i would have to say : Kyrillos', Indroid, Dutchmods, Cyanogenmod 7/6.2 (Both in alpha stages) and Destiny ROM. I would recommend trying some or maybe all of the following and i have listed them in no specific order.

I followed this guide, which seemed to work: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17624941

Only difference is that instead of the Sony Tablet P and S directly, it's now supporting every device with a Tegra 2 CPU.

That, and I specifically pointed the failed driver to android_winusb.inf.

Yes in C:\Users\Vinny\.android folder should be a file:

open this file or create if it not extsist as a text file and write

0x54c

ito the file. Save it

restart your pc and you should have adb.
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
Thanks for the reply Norberto.I've edited everything and restarted but still no adb.If I check adb devices in cmd prompt then I get "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file ".I checked device manager and adb drivers are installed,
[Sony Tablet S] norberto_:
extract the root package:

Sony_Tablet_S_Root_Windows.zip to any folder

enter to this folder

there are the adb files

adb.exe and 2 dll files

now here execute the command:

adb devices

i think where you executed the command there was no adb.exe.
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
When I click on the adb.exe I see a cmd prompt flash quickly and then it's gone.Is this suppose to happen ?
[Sony Tablet S] kryddan:
no, you have to open up a command window first, and run adb from there.

press windowbutton + r or click on the start-button. type in cmd and press enter.

Then you have to change directory into where you have put the adb file.

something like "cd /user/yourname/Sony_Tablet_S_Root_Windows"

there you can type "run.bat" and see if it works.

[Sony Tablet S] unclespoon:
Thanks to cbuckmiller I got everything sorted out. ADB was working fine with my tablet but I couldn't get the root exploit to do anything, it was so frustrating! If you go into device manager you'll see MTP device with no driver; once you install it manually from the website below everything will function properly for djrbliss' root exploit.

"I never post stuff on here so they wont let me post this on the dev section.

I was having the same problems as you. I did notice that when I plugged in my tablet it was recognizing two devices, Sony tablet and MTP. I associated the adb driver with the one that said Sony Tablet and left the MTP alone.

I kept having the same problems that you were having. I eventually looked for the MTP driver. I found it here on this site. http://android.mrboot.de/index.php?/archives/6-Sony-Tablet-S-MTP-driver-for-3G-version.html

After installing that driver, the root process worked. I did notice that when it was saying rebooting, it wouldn't continue on until after the tablet had loaded the launcher.

So yeah, try that out and see if that works.

Maybe share this info too for the others."
