[Nexus S General] KringelDing:
Hi,

is anyone els having lags opening the ICS apprawer?

is there any chance to resolve this "problem"?

ICS realy feals smooth, except starting the appdrawer...
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
Yup - It's the only lag I experience, nothing I've tried has an effect including forcing 2D acceleration, limiting background processes, changing animation and transition timings and not keeping activities.

For me it's a slight stutter rather than lag, the app draw itself would load much better if the launch animation was turned off. I believe it's related to a bottleneck in the systems memory bus.
[Nexus S General] koolkid09:
Yep! I've experienced lag on the App Drawer with every ROM I've tried for my NS4G. I'm starting to wonder if the NS can handle ICS properly.
[Nexus S General] whisky_:
Agreed. Its one of those things that really puts me off and i would REALLY want a fix for this :(
[Nexus S General] langers1972:
I had really bad lag on my i9023 until I did a factory reset, after that it's a different phone. Know of quite a few others that found the same so may be worth a try (if you haven't already that is)
[Nexus S General] zeiroe:
Not many responses to this thread, but I can honestly say that I do not experience any app drawer lag at all. i9020T 4.0.3 stock/rooted.
[Nexus S General] stremax:
i got too... with stock and alternative launcher, really annoying thing.. had a fade to black effect even when i close an app...

and I know is off topic... but why my phone has rotation disbled??? all check are flagged!! why why and why!!!

edit 2: rotation issue solved just rebooting.. how noob!!!
[Nexus S General] sabaramo:
I definitely get the stutter.

I even went as far as giving the launcher process higher priority but it made no difference.

Specifically I tried

renice -15 `pgrep com.android.launcher`
[Nexus S General] stevencpoynter:
I'm pretty sure it has to do with loading the widgets as they are connected to the apps in the new drawer. Cm9 has an option that disables the connection between the apps and widgets, solves 99% of the problem. Glad this thread was made as I was getting crucified by delusional members over this issue. Blind allegiance ftw I guess
[Nexus S General] jfmac:
Yes, CM9 launcher fixes the issue for me too as long as you tick to have widgets separated from main apps.
[Nexus S General] Nedzadk:
I did try factory reset, and after that ive done some testing, launcher still lag...no change...maybe at the begging i thought its better, but when you run for example browser than exit from it and press menu it lags again...

so i believe for people that have lag in launcher (like me) factory reset is not solution...

we will have to wait for community fix or google fix ...
[Nexus S General] sabaramo:
I have the exact same issue. The closest I have gotten to getting rid of it is what I have now.

Peter Alfonso December 20 nightly with glad os 2.2 with lazy governor. Its almost completely gone.

And I completely wipe everything and restore manually EVERY TIME I install a new ROM .
[Nexus S General] MersauX:
I also do experience a small lag when I launch it the first time, but that doesn't bother me too much, to be honest. :) I'm having more of a lag when I want to return to the app drawer from an application, it takes a two or three to close it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
i brought my galaxy nexus in ireland on vodafone bill pay，and now i need to go abroad for a month and change the sim card, but my phone is locked to vodafone, and i can get the network access code in 6 months because of the contract.

so is there anyone can help me with this?

thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] animaleyes76:
Contact vodafone for an unlock code or contact the ebay guy in the main sticky who you can get the same code off of (in minutes usually) for a small price
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
im really confused , the page of requiring unlock code doesn't show up when i put in another sim card, there's no place for me to put in the code
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
This. I have the same problem (different country and carrier). I put in a different SIM and no place for me to add an unlock code (if I get one).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
depends on where you are going to and what you will be using the most.

i use VF passport and euro data, keeps costs down quite a bit although if you are going to be hammering the data then a 'local' sim card might be best

can you not just get a 'local' vf sim for where you are travelling to? it might work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
can u get the unlock code from your carrier?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
is the GN actually locked to vf? have you tried a different sim in it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
yes ,im pretty sure abt that,

and im going to china where the vodafone passport does not cover,so i have to get a local one to save cost
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
I haven't bothered asking my carrier because I'm not even prompted for a code when adding a different SIM. I wouldn't know what to do with it if I had it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] animaleyes76:
mine asked me when i put a new sim in but the instructions from the guy slelling the codes suggested the following in his email

"To unlock your phone, please put a SIM card from another network that not same as your phone locked to, then input the unlock code above. You might need to disable or input your simcard's PIN first before entering the unlock code.

You can also try dialing #7465625*638*# and then input the unlock code."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
ah thats a shame.

I would try a different sim in it anyway just to be sure as i am sure i read that the GN would be unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
i just called the vodafone adviser and he said my friend who is eligible to unlock a phone can unlock my phone for me .sounds great to me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
r u sure about the "unlock" is for network instead of the lock of bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
ill try when i got the unlock code ,thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
this is what it says regarding the NUC

We’ll supply a Network Unlock Code (NUC) for you if you've bought a phone from us on either pay monthly or pay as you go. An NUC allows you to use non-Vodafone SIM cards with your Vodafone phone. If the unlock code is held in our systems, you’ll receive the unlock code and instructions by email within 24 hours. If the unlock code isn’t held by us, you’ll get an email confirming your request has been received - and that the turnaround time is 48 hours for all makes except Samsung, which is 7-10 working days.

You can only get unlock codes for the numbers on your account. If you have two mobile numbers on your account, then you can get two free unlock codes. There’s usually no charge for these network unlock codes.

Most pay monthly phones and devices are not network locked. Before requesting a network unlock code, please try a non-Vodafone SIM card and check for error messages.

so if you have a different sim lying about or a friend on a different network give it a try i would give it a go but all my work sims went back to the office for christmas :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
all i have now is a chinese sim card, and a friend who has the same problem as me.when i put the chinese sim into my friend SE xperia arc ,the page of error and requiring a unlock code pop out and the signal is full. but when i did it to mine ,there was nothing i just go straight to the home page and, undoubtedly ,no signal no network cant make calls
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
are you in china now?

what happened when you put the chinese sim card into the gn? did you get any messages or any signal displayed etc? is the sim card activated?

(i had problems with my SE x10 in europe)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
no ,im in ireland

google brand-animation-loading apps-go to lock screen says "emergency calls only"at the bottom-after unlock the screen it goes to homescreen-when i trying to make a phone call ,it says mobile network not available
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
my GN says 'emergency calls' until its unlocked then it goes to the homescreen.

when you unlock the phone does it display any sort of signal strength or not?

there might be something odd with using a chinese sim card in ireland, can you try a sim card from one of the other Irish operators?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
no signal at all

i dont have any now:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonny_rubber:
ok

1) try a sim from an irish operator

2) contact vf if that doesnt work and get your unlock code

3) remember it could be issues with the Chinese sim

4) if you have access to an unlocked phone try the chinese sim in that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butcher977:
but i tried this sim on my friend's locked phone ,he had signals even he had to enter the code
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
This is also my problem exactly. I had a friend put another carriers SIM in their phone, and it asked for an unlock code. Put the SIM into my GNexus, and doesn't ask for anything. Just goes to "Emergency Calls Only" and won't connect to any network.

What type of network do you have there? Is it GSM? WCMDA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
Good News Everyone!

Alright, so I've found out about my phone and I'll be able to test it in 3 days when I head to India. The nice thing about being here in Korea is that you've got maybe 3 or 4 degrees of separation from knowing someone that works at Samsung. I told a friend who told a friend, and word comes from one of the engineers at Samsung's mobile division.

It turns out that I am not carrier locked, but country locked. He said I am technically unlocked and free to put in a SIM in any other country I go to, but in Korea, it will ONLY accept SKT (my carrier) SIM cards. He said the behavior I was getting (NOT prompting for network unlock code) is because my phone is already unlocked but is country locked. If I were to leave, it would be fine.

As for you butcher, seeing as how our phones are both doing the same sort of funky dance, you may have the same thing. You may be country locked in Ireland. It could be once you head over to China, you'll be okay. Still, if Vodafone says they can unlock your phone for you, go ahead and try. Can't (shouldn't) hurt.

I'll let you know how it goes once I'm in India.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
Vodafone GN's are not locked! In fact I don't think any of the UK GN's are locked.

Have you tried to do a manual network search and then try to roam on each of the UK networks and see what happens.

How old is the SIM you're trying?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
Confirmed unlocked. I am only country locked. If your phone is doing the same as ours were above, it's likely you are too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] animaleyes76:
O2UK ones are def locked. No signal at all until you enter the unlock code for a non O2UK sim.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
The only 'locks' available are based on MCC (mobile country code), MNC (Mobile network code) or ICC /IMSI (Sim card).

For MCC - you can lock to country X, or any country except X. Eg all UK networks allowed but not any others. Or ONLY UK networks.

For MNC - You can lock to network X. Eg lock to T-Mobile UK, but no other network - the most common lock.

For ICC/IMSI - You can lock to one sim card or set of sim card if they are issued sequentially.

I've never seen any locks that dont fit into this. Any state where you are locked should prompt you for a network code. If you just receive no network then its more likely that either the PLMN information on your card forbids local networks (do a manual search and try every local network) or that provider has no local roaming partner.

The fact that it boots without asking you for a code generally means its NOT locked in that situation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
You may know more than I do, and I plan to check when I'm back in Korea, but wouldn't it be possible to lock the phone to certain WCDMA towers while leaving GSM unaffected?

If so, that would explain why in Korea I can only use one particular carrier but am unlocked abroad?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
Nope not usually possible. Check the bands that the other network use. I'm guessing they use a different frequency that the GN doesn't support. If you can give me an example of which network it doesn't work on I can check for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dipson626:
I'll check those when I can. In Korea, both carriers KT and SKT offer the GNexus which both have GSM and WCDMA antennas, but both exhibit this behavior. I can't put a KT sim into a SKT Gnexus but I can use any SIM abroad. I also put in a Vodafone SIM while in Korea and it wouldn't work but works now that I'm in India.

This is not the case. I have an SGSII and a Note.

Why not ask in the SGSII forum? You are more liely to find them there.

Plus, why not just download an SGSII ROM and rip them out of there?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edinhojr:
Hi guys,

I have bought my new S2 in Amazon and, after two days using it with Claro-Brazil operator, it frozen and after a reboot its never connected again.

I tried to update it by Kies, but after many tries to make S2 work with Kies, it doesn't have any update. Before start any procedure, I saved the S2 information.

PDA: KI4

Phone: KI1

CSC: KH2(XEU)

Next steps:

1 - Tried to insert the same ROM (UK).

2 - Tried to use the Claro BR ROM

3 - Tried to use the Brazilian unbranded ROM.

4 - Noted that my phone doesn't showed the IMEI information.

5 - Made the nv_data.bin/efs restore procedure.

6 - Tried to insert the UK ROM with MultiCSC, but I noted that during the ROM installation, the multiCSC failed to install.

7 - Noted that when I use another SIM from VIVO Brazil, my phone connect to the operator network, but if I use another SIM from others 3 brazilian operator, it doesn't connect.

8 - Tried another modem, KE4, connect to Claro, but only in 2G network. Also I have some difficult to make some calls and to received them. The phone freeze a lot during the callings.

Any guess??

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oduard:
Hello everyone,

A friend of mine destroyed his X10a, says he dropped it, but looks like it was run over by a truck... At first sight it had the digitizer destroyed with flex cable completely cutoff, broken LCD and the battery sustained some damage. :(

Then he told me that if I could repair it, I could have it... :eek: Naturally I though, 'replace the broken parts, let's say ~$50 and new phone for me! :D but before running to eBay, I wanted to be sure that it only needed a new 'screen'

The first thing I did, press the power bottom (though that if it gave any signs of life I could just put my SIM card in and call from another phone, if it rang I would smile) and... a red led blinked 3 times, when lucky. As I have never 'played' with a X10, I had no clue what that meant so my quest for knowledge began... and after reading I found it meant low battery, so plugged it to a wall charger and the only thing I got was a blinking red light, same with plugging it to PC with USB cable, which I think it's suppose to mean bad battery. So left it overnight charging... and never got anything but a red light. (no orange light, no green light, not even a steady red one) and if I pressed and hold the power bottom, it would vibrate.

Well, time to open it and see if there's anything else I haven't seen... and after opening it, found that the keypad flex cable is almost cut off and it seems to have some damage in the lower right corner of the 'motherboard' (looking to

where the battery goes) near the antenna connector? (I'm assuming it's an antenna connector, the round thing with a hole, it's a little down from where the LCD connector is, will upload a photo, but at 5:42am I'm surprised I'm still writing...)

1. How can I test the 'motherboard' ensure that it's functional? :confused:

2. Does the X10 need the battery to turn on, or can it be turned on with just the wall charger (and no battery). Will it turn any light on?

3. Does any of the damaged parts (no digitizer, LCD or keypad) prevents it from turning it on? (guessing the keypad might). Hopefully someone really brave, thirsty for knowledge and dieing to help will open their X10 :p and try to turn it on after various combination of disconnected components, let's say without LCD, digitizer or keypad... just to analyze it's behavior and help me... ;)

4. Any idea? or just not my lucky day?

P.S. When I plugged it in to the computer it was as if it wasn't there... PC Companion and SEUS did not recognize it (not even windows 'sees' it)

Thanks in advance!

...Yey! my first post in this forum! :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
Hi,

almost all of phones I had ever serviced needed plugged batterry.

You may even need the thermistor (middle pin), because phone controls resistance and temperature of original baterry. I am not sure about X10i,but power supply is nessesary :) I`will take my multimeter and check it out once in home ;)

But before plugging any power source, be careful about static electricity and check if any of flex cables are not short-circuited!
