I'm reading this thread for an while and I sadly have to say that I never saw anything like this. Attitude and ignorance of many people in this thread is just a disaster. What is age of all these people, 15 ? Is there any moderator in XDA or in this thread appointed ? And if not, why is that ? There are firm rules set in first posts and are heavily ignored. Everything not related to topics here should be deleted without a warning and all users ignoring rules should be banned ! That is the only way to keep order on public forums such as this one. I know something about this, was myself once a moderator of huge internet community.

Maclaw, I don't want to tell you how you should manage your own development. Take this as only suggestion from me. I'm developer myself (not android developer) and learned that if client/user wants a feature/bug fixed or implemented, he has to learn a proper way and that is to use a bug-tracker. Issues on Github are great. I think for your own sake you should start to ignore reguests made on this thread. If anyone wants a issue being fixed or new feature implemented, he/she should donate as little as to log in (or create account on Github), search if not already submitted and if not, create a descent issue there. It that user is not willing to invest this little, his request is not worth to be even looked up by devs, not even close to be implemented.

The way it works now I bet you are loosing too much of precious time to tasks not related to actual coding or other development tasks. It would be a huge loss if you will loose interest in development due to these annoying repeating requests and behaviors.

PS: Good luck with your exams, take your time, there are more important things than this!

You have to learn some new rules...

Over 100(?) posts deleted, many warnings, around 20 infractions...

Stay on topic - next time ban hammer will go down.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] eagleeyetom:
Same story. You have general section to ask questions about app compatibility and even your grandma's health :cool:

Android Development Section is for reporting bugs, sending logs, provide suggestions.

I won't stopping you from posting. Just try to stay on subject and respect your great dev. Nobody wants to read 150 pages of irrelevant info.

User warned. And some posts deleted.

I suggest you to create thread in General where you can ask about such things.

Thread re-opened. Have fun.

netd hogging CPU

As some others have reported, the phone feels very slow after unlocking, sometimes for minutes or more.

It was suggested to increase the "min" CPU freq to remedy the problem, however that does not help.

I found in CPU spy that CPU is running at maximum for very long, many hours. This is also causing very quick battery drain.

Looking in dmesg, I see nothing that sticks out, so I looked in top to see CPU usage for each process. netd stands out using anywhere from 70-95% cpu constantly. What does it do? I killed it and things seem fine now!

I'll monitor to see if netd is the cause every time the phone is slow... sometimes it takes minutes to open just an email as it is now. However, it is not permanent, it is irregular.

Cant confirm your cpuspy results 800 mhz is not used that much. Maybee one of your apps is causing this problem. thats my cpuspy results with an open ftp client loading some files when phone was locked

Gesendet von meinem GT-S5830 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Gatak:
Yes, it is the netd deamon that is causing the CPU-usage, as you can see from the screenshot..

I do feel it is often related to using the Email (not gmail) app, but it is unconfirmed for now.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Mardon:
but 92% cpu @ 800MHz for netd looks not normal

Im using email for exchange account with push notifications. So email push service is also workin in background and u see my cpuspy picture only 480MHz most time with ftp client syncing a ftp folder with my ace.

I cant reproduce your results...

Could you confirm whether you are familiar with the problems gatak describes two pages back? I'm also facing the same issue, but if it does not occur to you then it might mean we've done something wrong. Since it is a problem with netd this might mean that WiFi is not completely working well - although I have not tested wheter the problem occurs with WiFi turned off.

Some days ago I posted here reporting a problem about my SD card not being read in CM9. It physically detects it (it says it's been removed after I take it out), but it doesn't read it. It says there are no files in the SD card; I see it as if there's some problem with the partition that doesn't allow it recognize it. I made an ext4 partition with GParted, 512Mb, and still have the rest of the 8Gb for FAT32. A user told me to make a factory reset after flashing, too, but it didn't work. What should I do? It works perfectly in other ROMs, including CM7.

Maclaw, i've compiled the whole stuff with QCOM libs enabled (-DQCOM_HARDWARE and BOARD_USES_QCOM_HARDWARE := true). It booted after some litle fixes, but now i have exactly the same 'black screen' error as you had in GIO. Look at post #653 in you GIO thread.

How did you fix that ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] :
For what You want to use qcom hardware sources? We should use msm7k.

Wysłane z mojego GT-S5660 za pomocą Tapatalk
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] lagloose:
msm7k or msm7x27 (7227) IS a qcom chip...

If you look into the .mk files, you'll see that all msm7k/msm7x27 related files will only be compiled if QCOM hardware is activated (which makes sense of course...). That means, even if TARGET_BOARD_PLATFORM := msm7x27 is set in BoardConfigCommom.mk it has no effect on compilation if QCOM_HARDWARE is not set...

Not the place to ask, but...

The order of the partitions on the table is important.

Partition 1 is the main partition, and must be FAT32.

Partition 2 is for sd-ext and can be ext{3,4}. I think only ext4 is supported in this rom.

Previous experience. Lately I've only flashed back Stocklite 6 (modified stock).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] calav3ra_de:
Just to inform you - many people use sd-ext partitions to extend their internal phone-memory (only 150mb on the ACE), including me. It seems you didn't knew that.

Link 2 SD Solve Low Memory Problems

For anyone who is low on memory. You can use Link2SD to move apps to sd card. And per app or multi select create a link to the sd card. To move Dalvik Cache & Cache to the SD Card.

To do this: Install Link2SD from Google Play Market> In Link2SD>Tap on app>below press Create Link

Or use multi select option and do all apps at once ¨Recomended¨

No need for s2e! didnt work for me anyway.

but with Link2SD i have 108Mb free space!! :D

Note: Low memory is not really caused by this rom. The Galaxy Ace just doesnt have much internal memory. ;)

I have had this at least on the last two betas. I have cleared cache+dalvik, but not data/factory reset yet... that's my next idea.

I have also tried turning Wifi completely off and only use 2G and/or 3G. Same problem. Can happen when someone calls.. takes several seconds before I am able to answer because it is so slow.

Might try complete factory reset this weekend unless someone has an idea what to do?
