Clearing your cache partition and dalvik cache in CWM - along with removing unused apps is probably your only option.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chemo420:
Can u tell me exactly what im deleting I dont want to delete important data
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
just apps that youve installed that you dont use, games etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
You need to reboot into CWM and clear cache partition, then go into advanced and clear dalvik cache, reboot phone and let sit 10 minutes to rebuild caches.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheeseus:
Hello,

I found one thread about the same issue but didn't want to revive it because it's in an HTC Incredible S dedicated forum. Anyway, I am having the exact same problem as described there and I've been looking for a solution for months now...

Incoming calls fail when the phone is switched to 3G.

Until I came upon that thread, I thought this problem only occurs on Hypersimmed Japanese phones -- Japanese phones have a SIM lock that can only be overcome using a hypersim and even then they don't usually work fine in 3G.

Some hypersims, however, seem to be able to "do something" about this issue - while I have zero issues with incoming calls under 3G on my 904SH (2006 model), the problem described here occurs on my Android-powered Sharp Softbank 005SH.

So, I can connect to the 3G network (when in 3G only mode - if set to AUTO the switch causes the phone to lose signal and the SIM must be inserted in a "normal" phone to regain signal, we call this "CPR").

3G data works and 3G incoming calls work -- as long as there is an active data connection.

One way to do this was have Skype running all the time - huge battery drain and still incoming calls would occasionally fail as Skype doesn't seem to update its data at fixed small intervals...

I have estimated that the data connection closes in about 30 seconds, which means that after this period, incoming calls will fail.

I tried a small app that a friend had written - a screen widget that connects to a server at a fixed interval, e.g. 20 or 30 seconds, and displays different small photos.

This app does the trick as long as the phone's screen is on. If I switch it off, the app continues working, and even lights up the screen every 20 seconds (at maybe 1/3 of normal brightness) but incoming calls fail.

Now, in the above mentioned thread, the user only writes that his problem got fixed by itself.

I too have excellent 3G coverage and it's not a local problem (near my home's signal tower).

So, any ideas will be welcome!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mumblefluff:
1. Is it possible to replace homescreen with app launcher? I mean when you press home button, homescreen shows up, is it possible to force phone to open app drawer instead of homescreen when you press home button?

2. Or/and maybe there is a launcher which shows all your apps not alphabetically but by date and also with ability to arrange the apps however you want?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jigglynuts:
Go launcher sounds like it is what you are looking for.

In gesture settings you can set home key action to open app drawer instead. It also has app sorting option for by latest date first and earliest date first (and alphabetically of course). It also allows for you to drag icons into any order you would like in the app drawer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mumblefluff:
Doesn't work :/

Doesnt work, works only if I'm already in the homescreen and then press home button, just then app drawer shows up :/ Also tried Apex launcher, same thing..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Use something like Quick Launch to open an alternative app drawer. There are free alternatives to this app, it's just the one I use. Alt Drawer is the app drawer I use, you can find it on XDA. I open it via long-press of search.

The MIUI launcher automatically puts all apps on the home screen, and by default adds them in the order they're downloaded. With some tweaking you could get it the way you want. There's a modded version for all roms somewhere.

Edit: You can sort Alt Drawer by last installed, alphabetically, or most used. Use an app to set it to open when you hit the home button and you should have what you want. It has a lot of other neat options too.
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Hi,

I rooted my phone after a downgrade recently. I have a few questions

1) What are the advantages of upgrading the hboot from 0.98.2000(unlocked via revolutionary) to 2.00.2002 using this?

2) What are the advantages of upgrading to the latest radio? I am referring to this one? is it recommended to do so?
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
I would not recommend upgrading to a higher h-boot. It will just make life difficult, if anything. Also, I would only upgrade the radio if you're experiencing any signal issues our anything. Otherwise you won't notice a difference.

You might want to look into an eng-hboot though. It can be overwritten for warranty purposes
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Under what situations should we consider to upgrade to eng-hboot?

Swyped from a primed Desire S
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Well if something were to go wrong with the phone, you could flash a RUU and it would overwrite the H-BOOT to a stock one. So it's good for warranty purposes. There are also other advantages to it, can't remember off the top of my head though.

It's not necessary to have, but I think it's nice to have. Don't forget though, there are risks with flashing a H-BOOT.
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Risks would mean bricking I suppose...

So from what I understand

1. Upgrading to stock hboot is never recommended

2. We could upgrade to eng hboot, which will have an advantage in case of warranty issues, but rings the risk of bricking.

My warranty expires in May this year.

I will look up for more advantages of an eng hboot.

Swyped from a primed Desire S
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Yes, but many have done it, including myself. I wouldn't say upgrading h-boot is never recommended, just not on this device. With some devices there are advantages.

The process of flashing the H-BOOT is fairly simple and it's just your usual risks that you get when you're doing anything to your phone.

But like i said before, it's not absolutely necessary to have.
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Are you S-off via xtc clip or revolutionary?

it's there any differences to upgrading to eng hboot between both the processes?

Appreciate if you could guide me to some links you referred to..

Oly, what h-boot are you on?

Whats ur current ROM?

After going through various threads I am thinking of flashing end-hboot version 0.98.2000 as the 2.0 version wastes 150 MB of space....
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I would agree that is the better option.

even though I'm not on it myself. I have also been waiting for a ROM that takes advantage of new hboot partition layout for months now

Mine came with 0.98.2000 and I unlocked with AlphaRevX.

I'm using Endymion.

@Ben, Maybe the ICS update will take advantage of the new partition?
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Well, can't find a working link for 2.0 so either it's 0.98 or stay on revolutionary 6.98.

Thanks for your help. One user confirmed that gestures and status bar hiding works. I'm not sure about "Back" action, he said he could not execute it. Some time ago I solved Back issue on ICS and so far it was working on all other devices. If anyone try it, let me know if Back really is not working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] petsasj:
I can confirm that the back button doesn't seem to work. Home does work, but it's a nuisance with the notification panel being pulled down in the process.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StupidIdea:
Please try unchecking "Start from border" in Default Gestures tab. Then you can execute gesture anywhere on screen and test Back.

What gestures do you think would be comfortable on phone? I could add additional set for Default gestures for phone in Lite version.

I myself use it on SGS2 and just use swipe with 3 fingers down anywhere on screen for home and 3 fingers up for launchpad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandire:
The back gesture brings up a toast notification saying "Back" but nothing happens. All the other gestures work. Those 3 finger gestures seem pretty intuitive defaults for a phone.

Would it be possible to hide just the softkeys but keep the status bar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StupidIdea:
With current method it is not possible to keep status bar and hide softkeys. They are running on same process.

Edit: got PM confirmation that Back is working now. Updated version in XDA and market.

How to report a bug the right way

Allright...

Been getting a lot of bug reports lately, and the vast majority of them don't have any kind of system information included whatsoever. People just blurt out stuff like "Camera ain't workin'", and expect me to go "Oooooooh. Your camera don't work. Please, allow me to customize you a script to fix it based on that thorough explanation of the issues."

To be fair, there are some issues that may be simple to replicate and don't require a lot of information to track down. Stuff like "This program is missing" or "the cap button backlights misbehave from time to time".

For all the other stuff...there is a right way and a wrong way to ask for help.

The wrong way involves complaining about the issue while providing as little info as possible. Degrading the ROM itself is a nice touch. You know, like "This POS won't boot."

That, my friends, will get you one reply...which will be me telling you you'd probably be better off using a ROM that doesn't require common sense to run.

The RIGHT way to ask for help involves the following:

1. Provide as much information about your system as possible. This includes, but is not limited to, the following pieces of information:

a. What Hboot version you are using.

b. Your S-off status.

c. What recovery you're using.

d. What firmware you're using.

e. A detailed description of the issue. When it happens, the frequency, anything that you do that causes it to happen...tell me what I need to do to make it happen on my phone.

Additionally, for issues related to hardware (camera, data, screen, wifi) - and hell, for any issue, it is more often than not a good idea to include a logcat.

A logcat is like a system log...it runs as soon as your phone starts up, and it tells me when something goes wrong so I can try to figure out why. A logcat will make the difference between me yelling at you, and me being very grateful for your thoughtful and well-constructed request for assistance.

Now, for some odd reason, it seems that every time I ask someone for a logcat, they make a face like this at me, :eek:, and then vanish off the face of the planet.

Contrary to what you may think...bugs bother me. A lot. The majority of nights end with me lying in bed thinking about the first thing I'm going to attempt to fix tomorrow.

SO, when you post saying something doesn't work, and then I say "get me a logcat, please", and you switch to a Sense ROM and don't look back...it helps nobody.

With all that said...below is a link to some very simple instructions for how to install Android SDK and do a logcat. It's pretty damned simple. If you can follow instructions for flashing a ROM, then you should be able to do this.

http://www.shahz.net/android/adb-installation-and-how-to-logcat.html

If THAT is too daunting for you, then the next step would be to get Alogcat from the market.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en

Alogcat is even easier. Something crappy happens...you open alogcat, save the output, and send it to me.

Can we do that? Please? I'm so tired of asking for a logcat around every turn. Help me help you.

Cool, thanks! I'm DL'ing now. Quick question: What is the default kernel for this rom? I plan on flashing Chad's, but was just curious. Also, I have a feature suggestion: for the default MIUI launcher, would there be any way to add a 5th row? I know there was a mod on XDA for this a while back, but it became incompatible months ago.

Anyway, thanks for the hard work. I'm especially excited to try out the VC control script on this, that was a great idea.

Looking into the layout for the default launcher, you can change rows/columns in the launcher settings. Rom has been stable so far, runs pretty smooth.

Edit: If anyone's performance is laggy, I noticed that the default awake governor was set to conservative. When I moved to ondemand, the rom became much more smooth.

That will definitely help catch people's attention.

Either way I will be trying this rom out the moment I get home from work/school.
