I don't get this either, I think these guys with RAM problems proberly have so many apps running, not to mention gapps, but if there is free ram (which I always have), then it shouldn't impact performance in anyway. I wonder if they mean that the bus speed of the ram may be slower than new devices, but still there I don't think that would make a huge difference either. If ram is full its full, doesn't matter how fast the Ram's bus speed is then. ( this is just guess work based on how pc's work)

I find this OS to be really smooth and it doesn't feel like it is struggling at all.

I was being lazy, figured that would be more recognizable to most users than a picture of terminal with a bunch of writing.

Also for those that want more info on android memory see this link and this video for more android memory details. You could also read the many posts in this thread as well as others on XDA about the topic

I've performed clean install of build 120 and using it for a couple of days. Most of features are ok (including Wi-Fi hotspot feature that didn't work with CM9), but have some questions on

hardware

input:

1. I can't input any Fn+key characters (digits etc.) except ~ (Fn+@)

2. I've set up multiple input languages via Settings -> Input -> Hardware input, but resulting russian layout didn't match my keyboard (no Ё,Э,Б,Ж,Ю,Х,Ъ keys). How could I fix the layout on my own and how could I assign multiple letters to one key?

P.S.: Phone locale is set to Russian, no third-party IMEs are installed.

i delete my task manager recently and my phone it's very very more smoothie et speedy it's doesn't have any bug or freeze no so I think that a task manager it's don't very good
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .ili.music.ili.:
Task managers are so pre-gingerbread... even around the time of eclair people were coming out with some very informative posts and articles about why they were no good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Can either of you flash back to 119 and see if BT voice dialer etc works there?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
Not sure why wired tether doesn't work for me then. It says the kernel doesn't support it...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
And you didn't flash another kernel from elsewhere? Just tested it here... working as it should.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gee one:
Every time someone says "this is the smoothest build ever" I feel compelled to build from source and flash. This really is buttery smooth and responsive.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
It didn't work in 119, either. I was hopeful 120 would fix it.

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

It hangs, crashes and won't be of use until the process is killed by android. Using back button to quit doesn't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Don't get it then.... 120 should work as the earlier builds did. Hmm unless the AdieHWCodec.csv changes broke it... can you push a copy of that file from a build it works on and tell me if the problem goes away after a reboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
Does not work in 113.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mAesculapius:
build 120

Too bad but this just doesn't run smooth...takes seconds to start programs and things like typing on the on screen keyboard has a significant delay...

Most annoying though is the fact that the alarm doesn't sound. Nor the default android one nor the Gentle alarm which I normally use...

Other than that, it's just great to be able to use Jelly Bean on the Z... thanks for that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
what doesn't work in 113?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Build 121 is up on www.flinny.org btw :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
Bluetooth voice search voice dialer doesn't work in 113. I replaced the file AdieHWCodec.csv from 103 to 120 with no change. I've also disabled Google Search to allow Cyberon Voice Commander as a test. Still, doesn't respond to voice inputs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NeverGone\RU:
Does it include this "new" hwcomposer library that you've posted separately for build... erm... 115?

The interface gets noticeably smoother with it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Yes the hwcomposer change got put in by default
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Ah I had in my head that 113 worked. Hmm k the only other change I can remember off the top of my head is to the audio_policy.conf file can you see if the one from 103 is a) different and b) fixes your problem?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
It hasn't worked for me since 111 or 113 i forget which. I don't install any additional kernal on top. I do sometime run the supercharge script on top but I don't think it has been working with any of the new ROMs with or with out supercharge.

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

Does anyone have 111 somewhere they could post for me so I could try it to see if it was the last version that works for bluetooth voice dialer.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
I did not but I did ...*cough... pimp my rom...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
Yes, I have 111 but don't know where to post a file that size. I'll try it and post results.

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ----------

Bluetooth search voice dialer works in 111. I will try files from this version and post results.

---------- Post added 25th October 2012 at 12:11 AM ---------- Previous post was 24th October 2012 at 11:56 PM ----------

The audio_policy.conf in 120 appears to be identical 111.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
Just had 121 build hard crash on me and mass battery drain. Went from 90% to 3% in 45 mins with the phone just sitting on my dresser.

I did dual full wipe with the G2 AIO tool before install. Attaching /proc/last_kmsg and dmseg files. Hope they help.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Your last_kmsg seems to be from your previous rom or something... kernel is 2.6.xx ;)

Assuming the dmesg was after the reboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heathenasparagus:
I see lots of people having problems with 121.

120 is working wonderfully for me, think I'm gonna stick with the "if it aint broke dont fix it" approach until a build with new features comes out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
1 person has had problems = lots?:)

Not sure what's going on with dragon but I've had it up and running 12 hours now without any new problem surfacing......
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aishsingh:
what's the difference between the "cm10_vision" and "cm10_saga" zips?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] foefur:
Vision -> DesireZ/G2

Saga -> Desire HD

So it's for a different phone ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Saga is desire S. Ace would be Desire HD ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ronmq:
a lot of??, Where??!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
It actually crashed 2 times in a row. I wasn't able to get the last_kmsg or dmesg before it rebooted the first time. Second time I already had it plugged into USB on computer so was able to pull them both relatively quickly after booting up. I was confused by the last kmsg as well. I haven't had one look like this since I started wiping with the AIO tool, was hoping that wouldn't happen again. I haven't used 2.6 based ROM since before I moved to the test builds months ago, and I haven't even thought of changing to another ROM as a DD. I love this ROM better than the CM 7.2 that I had running on it before the test builds.

I have been modding the framework.apk to increase the amount if vibration, I needed more vibration, but it hasn't affected the previous builds in stability. I was also testing the new 1.6 overclock as well when this happened. I haven't had any crashes since these 2 that happened right in a row, maybe something just had a hiccup with an app that was running. Will try to get some logcats throughout the day and review them to see if anything stands out in them.

Also the 121 build still has the no sound at first initial boot until using the volume up button issue, but that doesn't bother me since I know to hit the volume up on boot to get sound working. It stays working for me after this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
121 runs good here. No prob upgrading from 120.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Corias:
Does anyone else have issue with typing numbers on hardware keyboard?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] foefur:
Oops my mistake :banghead:

But the concusion is the same :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
do a full wipe, flash another ROM, wipe again, then flash this ROM again. That somehow fixes my problems when my phone lags horribly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arpitnathany:
is wifi tether working for anyone seems to work for the first 5 seconds after being connected then there is no internet access wifi remains connected though. internet is working fine on the phone its just in tethering it dosent work.

edit: its working now must be a network issue
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
I have this to, it seems to happen whan the screen switches off, or the device goes into sleep. I turn the screen on and it works fine. I read a few pages back about about wi-fi going into sleep mode or something like that. Could it be this problem???? Build 120 didnt seem to do it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
for tethering PDANet worked for me when i need it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
Used G2 AIO tool to dual wipe again and flashed LightSense 1.2 from nagash91. Figured why not try something different than the AOSP ROM's that have been on my phone forever. Also my Swype beta wouldn't update, so I figured why not just flash something new. Though Swype site is currently having issues from what I can see giving a database error when I try to access it so that was/is a separate issue.

Then used G2 AIO tool to dual wipe again and fresh install build 121 again. Still no sound on initial install until pressing volume up button. Hopefully no other crashes happen. Also noticed the power menu now has airplane mode and silent mode options in the 121 build.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
How long ago was it you last wiped? those options have been available for ages unless you had them turned off :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
I dual wipe cache/data/system before every install. I want to try to prevent as many errors as possible. I know those options were there back when I first started using the test builds, but it wasn't in the newer ones. I just assumed it was being worked on like the CRT off animation, so never said anything about it. I don't use them, I just uncheck them because I only need screen shot and power button there. Though since I found out about the volume down plus power button to take a screen shot, I guess I don't even need the screen shot there anymore. I only noticed they were there this time because was a little distracted this morning so had to take time and pay extra attention to what I was doing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
Here is the script that might stabilize WiFi: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925814&page=3. This script is intended disable the proximity sensor. When the screen goes off WiFi goes in to a power save mode killing sip. Your situation sounds similar. Run the script with root explorer. If it works set to run at boot or as needed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
@flinny, WTF is wrong with xda and you only having senior member status... i mean come on already xda!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
Yeah thanks, went back to your original post and pulled the file, was a little unsure if it would work because of the proximity senor, but it sounded right and it seems to have worked. Been running for awhile now without problems. Just weird that it seemed fine in the previous build (120).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
This is what happens when I try to use it and everything is from the same .zip except for the PMR, would that be the cause of this different issue than others experience with the same situation of events?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
That looks like an app... what's wrong with going to settings, more..., tethering and portable hotspots and clicking USB tethering?:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
won't connect. I press button, it flashes to tethered back to USB connected...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Looks like something you installed has broken it then. As always if your having problems nandroid backup. Superwipe. Install the rom + gapps only and test again before installing anything else. If the problem is still there then restore your backup if you want otherwise setup and see which one of your apps or tweaks broke stuff ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aishsingh:
ok I just rooted my phone today and I flashed the latest build. jellybean is really awesome I will post any problems I find. Nice work, keep the builds coming :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] istmar:
Hey you guys, i a problem that is becoming a little annoying; is to do with sms, it wont always send the nor receive txts messages. In the app it shows that the text is sent but the other person doesn't get it. Im using the stock sms app. Is it ROM related issue? Any idea?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickownzya:
It's definitely network related.

I'm using the cheapest network provider available here and got this problem independent from ROM or device :D

Switching to 2G network mode helps ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MontRayJak:
Great work as always, Flinny!

I noticed 121 fixed a few bugs and missing features over 119-- including opening the slider now unlocks the phone (yay!!).

There is one major bug that I haven't been able to test since 119. When I checked my phone I had I received 2 SMS messages from different people. Using the quick reply window I replied to the first person, but it embarrassingly sent it to the 2nd person. I'm confident it wasn't a mistake because the 2nd person's SMS Quick Reply was open when it showed the toast at the bottom of the screen showing that the message had been received. Is this something I should report to CM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IharpI:
How would you descripe the performance of this rom compared to most Gingerbread roms?

For me it is often really slow. I dont know whether it is rom related (e.g. our phone just cant handle JB verry well) or it is related to my phone/setup.

Should i try to change more settings or just stick back with gingerbread if this is too slow for me?

For example starting tht phone app often takes several seconds (3 to 4) seconds, which is really a lot if you want to have a quick call.

Best regards.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] c00ller:
You should try to get a hold of David von Tonder, the one who I think developed the Quick Message feature for CM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johnyeah:
I observe these similar slowdowns quite often as well. However, that happens typically after I installed GAPPS and additional apps from the Playstore. In addition, the moment I started using widgets from apps like Hotmail, there are times when the lag increases to 10 seconds.

I actually just flashed back to Virtuous G-lite and there are any of the slowdowns that I observed on JB.

When JB is just fresh with no additional apps, it runs so smooth and the interface has improved quite a bit. I'm sure Flinny is able to improve the performance, as this is not even beta yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bradley_e_smith:
While I switch between this and jerl's CM9, I find that using the latest supercharger script always seems to make the ROM run better. To me I would have thought this is not needed, but give it a try. For me I just let the script run and tune itself. But I find both are very close to GB ROM after supercharging.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] istmar:
I'm on Tmobile network but it's weird that it usually does it with this ROM, here is what I did on my desperate moments, since I had a backup from build 120, i went from 121 to 120 without doing a full wipe, and now it's super fast and responsive 1.5mhz thou :D sms problems seem to be gone now. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
Ghostly SMS: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.GhostSMS

catches all lost SMS that we thought we didn't recieve. i have never lost an sms with this ROM (although this came in handy with Sense ROMs which loses about half of incoming text) , but i keep just in case.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Semaphor_:
Way faster than ICS for me, fewer hanging apps and FCs and fewer reboots:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Pantherx12:
Tried out the rom last night but was a lil to slow* for me to enjoy properly just yet, but damn I do like how buttery smooth the animations and transitions, can't wait for this to be in beta!

*Opening new apps and switching between them is noticeably slower compared to say mimicry.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Marqin:
On ROM 100+ I have strange battery drain. Mobile network(both 2G and 3G) drains about 2% of battery per minute. (with display on 25% and "data in background" disabled)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dryize:
Slow

Is it me or this rom getting slower. I used to use build 90's as my daily driver. but these new builds are too slow to use like that. Slow in opening and switching between apps. Anyone else noticing this lag?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Som3guy:
I have a problem regarding screenshots. When I'm in a game and I take a screenshot via power button menu, it shows the screenshot taken. But when I browse my gallery afterwards I only see black screenshots which are no images, when I try to share them. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickownzya:
I don't have any games installed.. but try the shortcut "Vol down + Power button" (both relatively long pressed). Maybe it helps ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
The apps open fine for me, maybe I am not in such a rush as some or maybe I am smoking way to much Mary Jane, so I am not noticing it.:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickownzya:
Now I have to report a bug as well: D

When I receive an incoming call while listening to music with headphones, the phone totally screws up. It takes ages till I see the incoming call screen and while calling there repeatingly pops up a superuser permission given to a shell.

I guess I can easily reproduce this issue and provide a log cat, when I'm back home tomorrow ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] istmar:
Same here man, i went back to build 120 cause 121 was unresponsive most of the time, now im using some scripts from PIMP my Rom, and it made it run better
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mhnx:
@Flinny will you create a stable channel or you will have only the nightly?? Thanks for your job, we appreciate it :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aishsingh:
in build 121 my mobile data doesn't work sometimes even though it is turned on. luckily I don't use it much but I have to restart the phone to get it working again
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
I didn't change anything in regards to mobile data. And have been using mine for the last 12 hours without problem. Whilst I have not been replying to all the messages lately I have been trying to keep up with them. Some of the problems people seem to have between 120 and 121 for example are just bizarre.... if I remember were talking 3-4 packages different and none in the area's the problems are occurring!

Some wipes and retests in order I think ;)

Anyway off to bed have been up nearly 30 hours...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
Double dual wiped with AIO tool, double wiped with super wipe tool, then wiped everything 2 times with 4ext recovery. Clean installed build 122 and gapps. Had a hard crash again 2 times. I had set OC at 1.6 with performance governor when it happened. Lowered to 1.4 with performance governor, and hasn't happened again since. Was able to get /proc/last_kmsg for you as well, and it actually doesn't say 2.6 version this time.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] natabbotts:
Flinny, if Terminal Emulator is added into the builds by you instead of cyanogenmod, could you include the updated Terminal Emulator in future builds? The market reports an update for it every time I flash :)

Fully wiped and flashed 122, no problems so far.

How to improove user experience of this ROM

Hi, posting mine setup that makes this ROM smoother and faster-at least for me.

Processor: governor, ONDEMAND, MAX CPU 1401 Mhz

Memory management: Allow purging of assets: YES

Kernel samepage merging: YES

Devel opitons

Allow mock locations:YES

Disable HW overlays: YES

Hope it makes user experience of this ROM better even for you :)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Pantherx12:
Just reporting that build 122 works flawlessly thus far for me. Works just as good as ics now only buttery smooth !thanks flinny. Fiver coming your way tomorrow!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hendusoone:
Over the past few versions (including 122), I was having trouble with some extreme slow-downs, especially after disconnecting USB storage from my computer. I loaded up the Android System Info app, and found that Media Scanner (android.process.media) was constantly using 50% or higher CPU.

A number of my mp3 files were corrupted, and causing Media Scanner to scan constantly. My fix: downloading and using mp3val to scan and repair the mp3s, then force closing/clearing Media Scanner's data.

Now, Media Scanner still runs its high CPU usage scan after every USB unmount, but instead of it running constantly, it finishes after 2 to 5 minutes. I'll continue monitoring my phone over the next few days, and will report if I find any other causes for slowdowns.

So... I don't think the media scanner/corrupt mp3 issue is a problem with this ROM (unless there's a bug in how ours is handling corrupt files), but instead an issue with Android in general. If you're still experiencing slowdowns, corrupt mp3s could be a good thing to check. mp3val can be downloaded here: http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/ and it works just fine with the SD card mounted over USB.

Note: if you use mp3val to repair, it will leave .bak files in the same directory as files it repaired. So, either delete them, or move 'em off your SD card if you're worried about space.
