I agree wholeheartedly with the above statement, they are nearly equals in every respect except for SU and most of the time it depends on the user. You will have your own opinions of what you like and dislike in a ROM.

I have always liked Cyanogenmod and I have nothing against Eclipse, it was something that really saved the X2 for me, I was super POed when I found that there was so little to be done with my phone last August when I upgraded to it.

IMHO I would stick with Eclipse just because it is more stable, Cyanogen was a great release from the norm of Moto based ROMS but it is missing a few things since we cannot build it specifically for our phone as easily as everyone else.

Personally though, I hate you guys for being able to flash things right now and I really, really cannot wait for this F-ing soak to come through so I can either join you on 2.1 or have a really fancy paper weight..... ;)
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
I've been running Eclipse for months, 2.1 for a few weeks now, best version yet. I run it with the build prop mash up, its always fast and responsive. However there are a couple things I do to help ensure that.

1. I schedule "Clear cache for user & system apps" in TB to run daily at 4:30 AM while I'm sleeping which is 30 minutes after my daily backup runs. After the cache clean it reboots. When I get up at 5:30 its usually quick and responsive all day.

2. Use the Moto performance manager built into Eclipse parts, schedule things that you don't want or need running in the background to auto-end (kills the app 2 minutes after the screen shuts off) This really helps with battery life as well, I can usually get 20+ hours of light/moderate use and it helps manage those apps that like to turn themselves on in the background.

3. I use Avast for security, but I also use the firewall feature to restrict network access of games & apps that don't need it.

4. I keep any apps/games I don't use regularly uninstalled, which I can quickly restore from TB if I need them. That seems to really help to as my wife had every free app of the day from amazon installed on hers and it was constantly locking/freezing. she cleaned most of them up and did the auto-end trick and hers has come back to life.

These are just suggestions but I've been using them for months now and they really work well to maximize the X2 as much as we can given the restrictions we have on it. Goodluck.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
iBolski, the similarities between yours and my "phone management" techniques scare me lol.

pretty much everything you have said I do as well, including leaving games installed just in case I wanna play one day lmao

I just wanted to add to the point you made about rebooting once every day, this is something that it's not only recommended for the Dx2 but for ALL, Android powered phones in general, I do believe it is also written in the "manual", that comes with the devices, kinda like how a PC needs a reboot once in a while, Android benefits from a reboot once a day as well, allows it to drop system caches that have built up and are hanging around and such,

that fast reboot app I have also used in the past, but nothing compares to an, accrual power cycle of the device, I will even go ahead and wipe cache from Android recovery as well once every couple days,

our set UPS are most likely extremely similar and I've found I get pretty damn near the most I can get out of this x2, I feel like the only thing else I could benefit from is a new kernel, as I've pretty much tweaked this thing to the max I can get while locked down
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I think we're so similar due to the fact that I've seen you tell people to do this, so I'm just following your instructions. Scary, huh? :eek: :D

Also, Orange Terror gave a great tip that I didn't even know existed in Titanium Backup Pr. Goes to show you can always learn something new since I've used TBU for about two years now. I've gone in and set up a schedule to clear user and app cache and reboot the system every day around 4 am. At 3 am, I have it backup and upload to my Box account. Now I don't have to worry about doing that myself or missing a backup.

But I think the big thing that has helped me out now is also the Autostarts app. Going through and having it ensure certain apps don't launch under various scenarios has definitely caused my phone to be MUCH more responsive now.

Like you, it's allowed this crap X2 to actually be functional, along with Eclipse 2.1 and/or CM7. With DZK and Nitro, I'm not sure where this phone would be. Probably thrown against the wall and shattered into a million pieces! :mad:
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
Amen to that. Thanks to Nitro, DZK and anyone that has contributed something.

I've been trying to start synching to box through TBU recently, but I can't schedule it to run automatically and when I try to run it manually after an hour its at like 20%, and I'm doing it on wifi. And it won't upload to my dropbox account at all, just sits there. Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
lol

well I know quote a few people seem to trust my set up lol

that auto starts app sound like it worth checking into also, thanks for the tip! :)
[Motorola Droid X2] Boardwalk30:
Thanks for all the responses guys! It's great to see some insight as to what everybody does on their daily schedule.

1. Yes, i do know there is 2.1, I just haven't had the time/availability to upgrade (until tonight, so i'll probably be doing that).

2. I'm admittedly bad at keeping a LOT of apps installed feeling like i'll need to use them, probably would be better off if i just kept them either frozen or only kept a backup.

3. As with you, iBolski, i've been running option 6 in V6 and that definitely helps a lot.

4. I'll have to try the nightly cache clearing, i usually just manually do it when i feel the phone is laggy.

Also, what launchers do you guys use? Just outta curiosity. I personally use LauncherProPlus. Yeah, the development is dead, but I've been using it since my OG Droid days, and it's served me excellently ever since. I don't need beauty in a launcher, just raw speed and a small footprint.

Thanks again!
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
just a tip for when you update to 2.1

you really shouldn't need to wipe data, I haven't wiped data once when updating from 2.0> 2.xand I have had zero issues,

also, nitro has added a couple features/options to the stock eclipse launcher which are nice, u can choose amount of home screens, infinite loop, uninstall app when u long press then hold it over the trash can for a second (pretty useful, no more needing To go into manage apps to uninstall apps)

if ya wanna venture from that I recommend adw ex or go launcher ex(nitro has an eclipse theme in the market for go launcher in case ya wanna support him (it's like a buck) and wanna keep an eclipse theme with a different launcher that has more options)

either that or just do a quick market search or Google search for "light weight launcher" to get some nice options, there's an almost endless list of launchers to try, I've spent hours trying different launchers and still haven't touched half of them lol, there is so many choices it's crazy, there is something for every type of user, from minimalistic launcher to fancy ones like spb shell and such
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I'm using Go Launcher EX myself. Have been since I ran an LG Vortex (now THAT was a SLOW phone but man, as far as music goes, it never skipped unlike the X2. Sad since it's an ARM6 600mhz single-core phone AND it had an unlocked bootloader so I could overclock the thing!).
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
For launchers I started with pro launcher. Then ended up with go launcher for a while. Now I am using adw ex. However I really like the new work nitro did with pro launcher. I would of stayed on it except for the 3D app drawer. Don't get me wrong it looks awesome and I used to use similar app drawer with the shell launcher but it triggers my vertigo.
[Motorola Droid X2] gaad0701:
I also use ADW EX, it has been the most consistently bug free for me depending on the settings you use it can be lightning fast or just as bad as a stock launcher, but generally it is much faster than the stock ones and it is more user friendly. :p
[Motorola Droid X2] ninjasailas:
Love all the insight here. I was running cm7 for a while but now on eclipse 2.1 and I haven't wanted to go back to cm7 yet. I also usually use adw ex but have been sticking with stock launcher. This go around. I reboot my phone at least once a day. I haven't tried any scripts yet but I haven't felt the need to iether. I try too keep as few apps running as possible. I also found that after I get done charging my phone I will reboot. Seems to give me more free ram. 185mb right now.
[Motorola Droid X2] A2Trip:
CM7 rocks. Once CM9 becomes stable and a beta it will most likely be the best ROM on the X2.

Sent from My Rooted MB870/DROID X2 Running CM7
[Motorola Droid X2] Boardwalk30:
I must say, after upgrading to 2.1, uninstalling 34 apps (mostly large games) that i seemingly never used, and installing the build.prop mash up, i haven't had any issues yet so far! 2.1 seems to be quite the upgrade from 2.0. Thanks to everybody who posted their experience/ideas!
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I started experiencing even more lag lately and it would immediately show up even after reboot. This started happening after I set up TBU to do a nightly cache clean and reboot.

What I finally figured out was, V6 Turbocharger scripts mem settings were not sticking! They were reverting back to the default for whatever reason. It was funny because the Lag Nullifier was still active.

So, I unturbocharged and everything via the scripts and set it back up to use local.prop and that seemed to fix everything.

Another thing I did was install Autostarts to tell it what apps should NOT start when certain system events occur (during startup, after startup, media change, etc).

I also used the Motorola Performance Manager to set up most apps to be killed two minutes after the phone goes to sleep.

I reinstalled Widgetlocker and things have been running smooth all day where as before, after playing many games (like Templerun, Fruit Ninja, Sims Free to Play, etc), I would notice lag would seep in and would require a reboot to fix it.

Now, with my set up (TBU clears cache and reboots nightly, Autostarts, Motorola Performance Manager, V6 TC), things are running smooth, smoother than they have before.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
TBU has giving me problems in the pass I gave it up over a gear ago. I have been running 2.1 now for over a week after cm7. I have it supercharged to100% and KAK installed and it runs great. I do reboot every morning when I get up. Running awesome thanks nitro for the rom and Hedwig for making it look so sweet :)
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
I also noticed that people who haven't edited the memory management lines out of eclipse's 99 tweaks script tend to have issues when using v6supercharger

I have also recently started using build prop option in v6supercharger along with init.rc integration, my adj values wouldn't stick on boot when using local prop, they used to, dunno what changed, but now I have to use build prop if I wanna be 100% supercharged
[Motorola Droid X2] maggard5:
Same here. Mine won't stick using local prop. I also have to use build prop to be 100% supercharged.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
I also had to use build prop to get the 100% to stick. Also using KAK. But everything is sticking now. But it did take a little while to get the 100% to stick. And using KAK I did not use the I/o tweaks. Has anyone used the I/o tweaks yet with the kick ass kernal?

some users can't send/receive mms with ICS, i believe the reason is the system can not match the APN type,in general,the APN type mms will be used when send and receive mms.so, i try to copy the mms setting to default, yes ,mms can work very well.

Hi, I just installed a skyrocket build of the TW ICS and it looks like garbage all over stunning pure ICS. Thanks to all the Dev's that work so hard to clean that garbage from.the Samsung TW rom's.

All this time I wanted ICS now I don't see a point for this UGLY TW ICS.

It's just sad to see this beautiful Phone ruined by TW and T-Mobile. Just because of this I just ordered the Galaxy Nexus. Even with its shortcomings its much better then this. It had ICS for half a year already. And we are dreaming for ICS and until we get it the next version of Android will be here.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Agera:
I fail to register the fact that you buy a nexus over the t989 or i727 its a perfectly good phone that being said now that both s2's have ics its only a matter of time where dev's get creative and build ics roms that would have tw near non existent.. The dev's we have are clever...very clever i am sure that they will be cooking up some very interesting roms. Patients is the key and a lot of us have been patient.. Fruits will bear soon enough.

Hi,

First, I apologize if this is the wrong thread.

I am getting a green smiley face advertisement notification on my Samsung Galaxy S2.

I have no idea what is causing it. I have tried all of the recommended airpush notification detector apps, but none of them detect anything.

I get the notification at least once a day. and every few days/weeks the advertisement changes. the advertisement is always about a game.

I will attach a SS of what it looks like.

Please do not tell me to format, I'd rather deal with the annoying ads then to have to deal with restoring all my ****.
