use my touchscreen, responsiveness and battery tweaks from the android development subforum for xperia arc. i have been read the last post about the governor and the rampling too. i've been ggetting over 18 hours on an average already. (those tweaks were for the ics beta, i bet i can tweak it more).

games use a lot of ram. getting out of ram can cause FCs. (try reducing your vm heap to 20 and see what it does to the other apps ;) )

Guys, just supercharge your phone. Details here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1533044

It's working great for me on stock ICS and just wanted to share.

After you supercharge the dialer & sms apps only lag the "first" time you open them after a reboot. After that they open pretty much instantaneously (unless you run a massive app which uses all the phones memory) in which case it will lag the first time after closing the massive app. ;)

You can bullet proof apps of your choice including dialer, sms, launcher etc.

For me the overall smoothness of ICS is noticable.
[Xperia Arc General] josephnero:
yes.i OC to 1.4ghz
[Xperia Arc General] J Webb:
This is definitely the way to go! Don't go crazy and bulletproof everything or else you'll end up with the same problem but definitely do the basics and you'll notice a difference for sure, without having to drop down to 2 background processes.

COMPILING THE ROM ------> ADVANCED USER ONLY!!

Those instructions are tested and works on Ubuntu 10.04 an 12.04 (machines I Have)

For Extra settings please contact me and I'll try to help! :)

-Install the Android SDK

-Install needed pacckages:

git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool

For 64bits enviroments also:

g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib

-Create the enviroment where you'll going to develop :)

mkdir -p ~/bin

mkdir -p ~/android/system

-Install the Repository

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

export PATH=~/bin:$PATH

After this step, it may be necessary a reboot to have repo working from path

-Inizialize the Repository]/B]

cd ~/android/system/

repo init -u git://github.com/89luca89/android_manifest.git

repo sync -j16

This will take a while :) Go out for a walk xD

-Copy proprietary files

This is needed only the first time you compile, you must have a working CBR-JB rom, working ADB.

Make sure ADB Is working on your Machine

cd ~/android/system/device/samsung/i9100/

./proprietary-files.sh

This will put all proprietary files in the /vendor

- BUILD THE ROM

. build/envsetup.sh

lunch full_i9100-userdebug

make -jX (X= number of cores)

make -jX otapackage

This will build the complete rom WITHOUT gapps

If you want the complete build (like the one in th post) you have also to:

FOLLOW THIS GUIDE

http://www.kandroid.org/online-pdk/guide/release_keys.html

to create your signature keys (credits to Koudd that helped me sorting it out! :) )

put all Gapps (you can find the package, or simply manually take from CBR) in vendor/CBR/GoogleApps

then

vendor/samsung/CBR/tools/squisher

Will generate a signed flashable zip with also MD5sum :)

Great news! I loved your GingerMod! I have couple of concerns flashing ICS mod. Do I need to first flash ICS bootloader before flashing Nexus SII.

Can I just flash the ROM via CWM? Also, what is MD5 (CSC?)

Do I have to do a full wipe if coming from another ICS Rom?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] adamski123:
How is this different to the other galaxy nexus rom?

Also I'm not sure if u can call ur rom that mate...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Okur90:
The major difference between this and Faryaab's F1 ROM is that this is ODEXED and that one is DEODEXED. This is optimised for performance whereas that allows for theming etc. Visually, it won't make a difference but under the hood, this could be more fluid. Gonna have to give this a try. :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] adamski123:
Hmm OK I may try this rom. If I'm running f1s rom do I really need a full wipe? :L
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tdiddy1987:
to the OP .. ur missing a 'directions for install'

just a suggestion
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] 89luca89:
Well yes, you can simply flash, just if you boot loop even with a data wipe, flash the cyanogen mod resurrection flashable via Odin, that sets all boot loaders compatible :p

MD5sum is a code to check if the zip is OK or corrupted :) so it will not be possible to have failure flash

yes!

well I know the other rom but sincerely I don't think the "intent" is the same...I develop an oem-lile rom, so its like the stock images of gnex, he does a pure aosp..., but even if are similar (aosp is aosp, optimization apart its the se for gnex nexus s and gs2...)

You cannot say this rom its not mine... you know just check the source code... its open source so just check, this is not a work you can do in a night... it might be only a coincidence, but still project are different

Yes you need...

You can try to not wipe, but semember that in case of problems, the reason is the wipe not done

Well, just flash the zip, is really necessary? XD

Thanks to chainfire we got this add-on to use the usb port for extra storage. I was looking to make a very small micro-usb to microsd(card reader), google did not satisfy my needs for answers. so I could not find any products. I was about to design one my self when i found this. It could prob. be made much smaller so you would end up with some thing less then a cm (.4 inch) sticking out of the phone. small price to pay for adding up to 32 gigs (this one already has 4 gb build in so you'll get 36gb). :D

So Im a new member to the site for the most part (have been reviewing threads for more than a year now, though) and decided to finally sign up while trying to flash CM9 ICS on my infuse. Im running into issues. I currently am running ZUES Build 6, with the ICS theme / framework. I LOVED CM7 for the Ascend, so decided to give it (CM) a try on my infuse. The Dev threads say that i should have no issues b/c Im flashing from a UCBL3 / GB ROM, but when i try to just flash it, its an invalid package...? I tried flashing over the ICS recovery from both Hiemdall and Odin but hiemdall needs a "valid tar.gz" and i also encountered the same type of issues with Odin. Ive used Odin before to flash to stock, but im a complete noob to Hiemdall. Any help from an experienced Dev or another flashoholic is greatly appreciated! dont have 10 posts to ask in the Dev section yet...:mad:
[General Questions and Answers] excise:
Could you be trying to flash a .zip file that is designed to be flashed in CWM recovery via Heimdall or Odin? I don't have an Infuse but I'm currently running AOKP on my Galaxy SII and the files posted by in that development thread are CWM flashable.

I figured it was a bad DL...tried 2 other DLs, no luck

they said to flash from gb to flash a file called ICSRecovery.tar.... how would i go about doing this...i have red cwm like needed. im completely lost here...And thanks for replying.

I does sound like a bad download, redownloading would have been my first instinct as well.

Rereading your post, it seems like maybe you haven't been able to successfully flash the ICSRecovery.tar that jt1134 mentioned in the first link you posted. Entropy512 doesn't mention needing to flash that recovery before the .zip but it may be implied, I haven't read nearly enough of the pertinent threads. You should be able to flash the .tar using Mobile Odin.

It looks like you pulled the download from Entropy's thread here

Entropy left some pretty detailed instructions that should be easy enough to follow after you've overcome this initial hurdle.

so you suppose i install mobile odin...will try, and will keep progress updates

update:mobile odin not available for my device...must dump... :/ 30 minutes...............

Update: i was able to flash the recovery image for ICS through sgs kernal flasher, reboot, and get rainbow recovery. it WAS a bad DL, the ICS recovery couldnt flash it...but when i tried to reboot normal, i got into what i call IRONY!!! i was stuck in a recovery loop ( you see the irony in that, right?). reboot put me back in recovery again every time i clicked the option...i was able to get out of the recovery loop by flashing the zues 6 rom (because the ICS couldnt read the boot image of my backup) then from there i rebooted and got the voodoo recovery (huge relief). I was then able to restore my backup (after practically drenching myself in sweat)! I will be uploading an image of the rainbow recovery, as its been dubbed, for those who would like to see what a pain in the ass it is......... :(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
hi guys,

Hopefully this is the right forum but if it is not, i apologize. Anyway, i recently moved from a GB rom to ICS rom (AOKP and now on SHOstock2) and i have to say that i LOVE SHOstock. however, there is one issue that is shaping up to be a showstopper for me and that is the Exchange service that is killing my battery as well as giving me some other problems like push emails not coming through every once in a while. i did quite a bit of reading both here and on google and from what i can tell, the issue with Exchange service killing battery and misbehaving is actually a problem with ICS and not a particular rom. On GB, i used to get about 1-3% per hour drain and now i am at about 15% and i can see that mail.exchange is keeping the phone awake most of the time with a wakelock (unplugged at 6am today and i am seeing about 3 hours of wakelock).

i already tried some of the suggestions that are out there like removing the calender sync, deleting and readding the account, using different mail clients etc.. but all have the same exact result. am i screwed? do i have to go back to GB if i want to keep my Exchange?

while i am at it, anybody else notice some issues with Wifi switching? it takes me about 2 minutes to get data after i turn wifi off and i already tried 3 different modems including the latest leaked one.

thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PuffinNugz:
I'm on AOKP and my exchange works just fine. No battery drain issues or anything. No issues with the wifi switching either. Unplugged for 4 hours so far today and at 94% right now.

Did you do full wipes between flashing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nh5:
No issue here with Exchange, I run my own server and do not use autodiscover for settings. No abnormal battery drain. However, I have read that some are experiencing drain and its normally due to configuration of the account on the device. What to change exactly, I'm not sure but double check your settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
yep, full wipe between flashes as well as cache wipe and delvik wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
i triple checked my settings and they are actually identical to the settings that i had when i was on GB. this is such a weird thing since it happened both on AOKP and on SHOstock and i already tried different modems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jubjubrsx:
checkout enhanced email, otherwise ya definately do a full wipe backup your stuff, i had the problem then i formatted my internal sd card, and in ClockworkMod i wiped cache/dalvik/data fixed my problems right up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
i am using Enhanced Email right now (i much prefer it to anything else i tried). i am doing a few more tests but if i can't get it to work, i am going to do full wipe and flash SHOstock again and see if it helped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PuffinNugz:
Were you having these issues on the stock email app? I've read that the calendar sync from enhanced email caused a big battery drain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
I did try the stock email and it was actually worse. Oh and I have Calender sync disabled in both email clients.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jpgalaxy:
Is your phone abnormally warm? I had an issue with something not syncing correctly, so exchange was constantly trying to sync and killing the battery. I deleted the accounts and re-added, syncing things one at a time and it worked.

I run two exchange accounts, my work and personal, and I have no issues now.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rattles:
alright, another update:

after switching to enhanced email and disabling calender sync, i did a few more tests yesterday. i charged my phone to 100%, reset all the timers and left it over night. i woke up today to 94% battery and deep sleep was about 98% and there was only about 8 seconds of wake locks from email. it looks like everything is working as it should now but i will update again if the issue returns.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Scarchunk:
I sync my own exchange server as well as the one I administer from work. I too had random sync failures and drain using the stock Samsung email app included in shostock. The Samsung email app from GB was fine.

The ICS email app from CM9/AOKP works great. Only thing missing is sync scheduling. Quiet hours is a decent replacement. Looks like you found a workaround, just saying you're not alone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 78Staff:
I've had nothing but issues with the stock ICS Email/Exchange app, it won't recognize/authenticate me - no issues when using GB.

However, K9 and Touchdown both work fine. Touchdown works so well I was planning on buying it but now I read some reviews where they are not supporting rooted/custom roms so I may just stick with K9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheNatclanwy:
I have been on all of the versions of Shostock2 and I have not had any issues with exchange other than when I flashed V1 where I had exchange wake lock issues. I resolved it by wiping and re flashing and have had no issues since.

No Exchange issues to report, un-modded yakju IMM76I OTA.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Honzze:
I'm currently on I9100XWLP7, but this is already the third ICS version where this happens randomly. I always did a full wipe before and after flashing, and I did not restore any Settings using Titanium Backup (in fact, restoring System Settings always causes trouble).

The Problem is not the application (K9, Social Hub, Android stock ecc.) you are using, but the stock Exchange ActiveSync implementation of ICS. This Problem also happens on some ICS 4.0.4 Nexus, so actually there is no hope for a decent solution with the current 4.0.3 on the SGS2.

Deleting and re-adding the accounts helps for some days, or even weeks, but eventually it will reappear.

I noticed that disconnections between the Server and the device seem to be crucial for this to happen. The last time I did a full wipe the SGS2 worked flawlessly for about one week, until we had a Problem with the HDSL in our company. After restoring the connection, the Problem reappeared and since them every now and then the SGS2 gets hot and I have a massive battery drain, no mather what Settings (even Default Settings don't work).

This does not happen on any device with GB.

Stopping the Exchange Services sometimes helps. They will be restarted next time you open the email app. If you are lucky, than it's solved for some hours, if not, it continues to cause massive wakelocks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] id628:
You described my symptoms exactly.

Do you know if Touchdown uses the same service or implemented their own?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] garfunkel99:
Touchdown works for me on rooted and custom roms. It just became officially supported at work, and custom roms are explicitly included by my IT department.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] garfunkel99:
Touchdown internalizes the security requirements. For example, if encryption is required, touchdown encrypts it's local storage instead of requiring the entire phone to be encrypted.

Update: I didn't quite answer the question! A lot of touchdown is different from the stock programs. However, some of the data encryption objects on the phone are required. I accidentally locked myself out of my account (phone & PC) 4 times in a row trying to setup Touchdown on a new phone - the root cause was I froze one of the stock phone programs that Touchdown required. I don't remember the exact one, but I believe it handled encryption (I'm not sure if it was handling encryption of the server connection or local storage encryption).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bjjere:
Exactly the same here... multiple flashes, wipes, account enable/delete, different mail apps... all same end result of not getting emails, battery drain. Too bad as ICS is great in every other way
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] randybarrett:
Enhanced E-Mail vs touchdown

I was not sure what was causing the drain on the battery with Enhanced Email, so I uninstalled it and bought Touchdown. It's like a new phone, battery lasts for a long time and Touchdown syncs multiple folders unlike the stock app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] id628:
Touchdown solved my problem as well. No excessive battery drain, no more need to remove and recreate my Exchange connection on a weekly basis.

Too bad Touchdown stores the Exchange mail, calendar, and contacts in a separate database which most other tools and widgets can't access. But I'll live with that until this is fixed, if ever.

Note that this is not a problem specific to the Galaxy S II - I'm having this same issue on a Galaxy Nexus, running either Stock 4.0.4 or AOKP Milestone-5 with the built-in Exchange sync.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
You installed a ROM? That would mean you're unlocked, and maybe rooted as well.

There are custom ROMs of the official releases, check in the development sub-forum. I assume you're returning to the retailer then, because ASUS will have nothing to do with your unlocked tab.

I personally would never root/unlock/flash a device that I wasn't fully aware of its issues and okay with its performance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HydroSkillet:
before you do anything read this thread.... you can coaster your unlocked prime.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1515004

Also, ASUS won't take your prime back now that you're unlocked. Chances are if you're returning it to a store the people won't know wtf it is, and won't be able to tell if it's rooted as long as it doesn't have any funky boot animation. If it was me, I'd find the most stock rom, and flash that, take it to wherever and have a coke and a smile.
