I am s-on. I could not get s-off to work after like 20 tries. Should I use the above procedure, or can I follow the procedure in the original post? If following the above procedure, do I just type these commands in at the adb command prompt? Do the files need to be on the SD or in the ADB folder on the computer for this to work?

[HTC Wildfire S] facedown000:
Regarding this... Is this a Real problem?? Im just new here and just enjoying my WFS with : UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER / CM7 by alquez...

but after a week i notice when its locked or on sleep mode my phone blinks (Like turns on and in a secs the screens off then again and again )... is there a configuration procedures on the settings that could fix this ??? coz i really like the simplicity of the ROM and im used to this.... please help and if there is a post same with my question please close this and send me a link to see but i hope it would help me...

FYI: I FLASH it many times... still no Good.. :D

i wonder if there is a prob on the phone itself???

MOre Power XDA Pipz! :D
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Never seen that problem mate.

You could try flashing an earlier nightly/build and see if it fixes it.

If it doesn't fix it then it could be a hardware issue.
[HTC Wildfire S] vincent7woo:
I face the same problem.

And sometime I need remove the battery....

While start up, the phone in the "start mode", I need to choose language....

but the app still here.....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
Okay, I'm 15 i started getting into android about 5 mounths ago with my good'ol "Samsung galaxy ace" after using it for about 3 mounths i decided that i needed a higher res screen and a proc capable of playing most main stream games (GTA. Nova 2. Minecraft etc). So i bought my beloved neo for theses reasons:

1. 1GHz Proc

2. 265 DPI (854x480)

3. 512mb RAM

After about 2 mounths usage i can't seem to understand how all UI interactions are faster and smoother on my Galaxy Ace?

No matter what ROM (ICS or GB) with whatever kernel I can't get my neo to live up to the smoothness of STOCK Galaxy ace rom, let alone a tweaked rom.

It makes no sense to me how a phone with a faster and better proc and more ram can't achive the same smooth UI

If anyone can explain to me what i can do to improve UI smoothness or how UI scrolling smoothness works in roms etc THEN I BEG YOU TELL ME!

(IF ANYONE SAYS "Buy an Iphone" I WILL REMOVE THERE SCROTUM WITH A BLUNT SPOON)

Roms i've tried:

ALL ics rom (apart from miui) (ICS roms are WAY too laggy for usage)

Most gingerbread roms apart from:

SE tweaked (couldent get it working)

any MIUI (Y WOULD I WANT MY PHONE TO LOOK LIKE AN IPHONE APPLE ARE ****)

I have treid super charge on lots of roms, dont really see or feel difference to scrolling.

Currently im using Stock .62 as it is by fair the smoothest rom for neo.

Thanks for anyone who can point me in right direction or explain y UI isnt smooth.

Sorry for ranting, Josh. (moonytoonyking)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] johnraziel:
root and launchers

I dont know if this would help you but, have you tried installing replacement launchers? such as Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher EX? they have both smooth UI scrolling interface. Also smooth app drawer UIs. In fairness to Xperia Neo, It has smooth scrolling. Are you sure you are not running too much apps in the background which makes your device slower? Are you rooted? If you are rooted, then I bet you get control of your device, Disabling (unnecessary) background apps, taking control of your CPU/RAM. You could also install Chainfire 3d which would help you a lot in playing games (in terms of hardware enhancements)

Give us details about your mobile, and I mean details so we could help you out mate. :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] theredsonja:
If you're looking for absolute smoothness go for cm7.2, but use other launcher than adw, it lags, at least for me.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] aimcr7:
Have you tried cm9? it is the fastest rom ive ever tried, i tweaked it for faster and battery friendly.

And its awesome mate.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Have you ever considered about the fact that comparing to Neo,galaxy ace got a lower resolution.Anyway try removing bloatware and use a custom launcher like apex.

lol
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ssimmmo:
There are loads of way to make your phone faster and smoother this is how I do it

1: Over Clock to the highest possible even tho it says recommended not to lol just wack it up lol

2: Memory Booster - I like this app just because ever 10 mins I set it up to boot to get ram back up

3: Launcher on ICS at the min so I been using Apex or Nova launcher on gingerbread I would use ADW or Stock

4: SD Maid - Clears all the junk that your phone make for you from internet and other apps

IPHONE IS THE BAIN OF ALL LIFE ..MY WIFE WANTS ONE I AM GONNA GET HER ONE JUST FOR THE FACT SHE CAN GIVE ME HER NEO AS ITS BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED UNLIKE MINE LOL
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] dc26919568:
it's rather strange for you to tell me Neo's Scolling is laggy...

to me...it is more smooth than SII and iPhone 4... without root and mod.

U may try 3rd launcher like SPB Shell, AdW EX, Go EX and Launcher Pro.

Also, u may want to enable GPU rendering (HW acc.) of launcher

Hope these help...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] georgeiulian89:
I suggest you to use this ICS rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1570499 combined with Apex Launcher and NightElf kernel v1.0 RC2 lite...The only problem is that many games aren't optimized for ICS,but the UI it's way smoother than Galaxy S2 or even Galaxy Nexus,plus that the battery life is amazing (use setCpu to underclock the processor when screen is off,i'm using it @245-460 mhz w screen off,and 245-1024 mhz in normal use,and battery life is deffinitely improved (in stand-by it drained 1% in 5 hours).:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
Thanks for all the replies :D

I've tried a load of launchers my fav for GB being ADW and for ICS being Apex.

they work well and usaly improve smoothness. BTW i agree that neo is smoother than Gs2 (on stock) but not Galaxy Nexus, that is super smooth.

I have root.

Overclock helps to an extent but if rom is unsmooth it dosent do much.

Havent tried that I-scream ROM as i have found that all SEMC based ICS roms LAG really badly, however since you recomend it i will try. I have been reading up on things like swap and zram but im not sure if they will improve my speed much?

Again thanks for all the help I LOVE XDA'ers :D :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] theredsonja:
If you still experience some lag, try turning off scrolling cache, force disable, on cm options.

I have about 30 apps i install and don't experience any lag.

Sort of glad to see i'm not the only one having issues with adw.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
Not bad but stock .62 is smoother by alot still, shame i love ICS. I actualy found the AOSP rom to be the smoothest ICS rom but it has many bugs
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] georgeiulian89:
You've used Apex Launcher? Because i know that stock launcher is very laggy.I'm currently using this rom with apex launcher and on-screen buttons,and i'm never going back to gingerbread.:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
Apex improved it alot, but still not smooth, cm9 amazes me its sooooos smooth but buggy and sturf dosent work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] skyboyextreme:
the smoothness of the rom is always tied to the framework files sony didn't optimize it well in their ICS release....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
Do you think you could tell me how to tweak this?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] skyboyextreme:
i can't do it myself but back in the days when i had an x8 ginger bread was laggy on it and a guy called doixanh or something fixed it by optimizing the framework and it became very smooth silky smooth :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] moonytoonyking:
FINALY: CM 7.2 (fxp17) with disabled scrolling cache Is SUPER SMOOTH im very happy, hopefuly cm9 will be this smooth when its done.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] theredsonja:
TOLD YA :D

Also, CM9 IS this smooth, it just doesn't have FM, Video recording and HDMI.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aamirx27:
Thats the thing I really liked In your POST :D :D LOL

I am on MIUI 2.4.28 Its Amazing Highly Customizable,, But only Battery Drain Issue...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] fire-warrior:
you should try the new aokp rom >>> incredibly smooth but still some problems to solve.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
It never worked on the international version and everyone was hoping it would work once the XL was released on AT&T. Apparently not. Bummed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Artimus009:
Oh well. Its something that I'm not looking for in a phone...its like nfc...maybe in a few years when it catches on...sgs4-5?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Artimus009:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nunyabiziz:
Hacking is one but Google enabling support for it is another.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s.m.knipe:
Or Google will update the Wallet app. It didn't support the Galaxy Nexus at first either...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
It was kind of a given... AT&T doesn't want to give us the option.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s.m.knipe:
Very true; but neither did Verizon and Google simply updated the app to recognize the GN's hardware. It's a longshot, but they might support it...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
Here's to hoping for support... That may have been one of those perks for owning a nexus device though. We'll see.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
Not alone...

There's a case to be made for why they allowed the Nexi because they're not AT&T provided phones. For their own devices, they call the shots.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s.m.knipe:
I know, I'm just hoping against hope... Verizon is part of ISIS too though and they grudgingly allowed it on their branded Nexii. I would think an anti-trust argument could be made if ISIS members continuously blocked it...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norcalz71:
So I am basically trying to figure out the pro/con of either method. I have no background in linux but am trying to get my new lapdock ready as a lightweight netbook. Basic browsing, email, watch movies, use openoffice, etc etc.

What is the "best" method? Do they accomplish different end goals? Is one easier/harder to implement and maintain?

Like I said, no background in linux (yet) so I am just getting into the game here and trying to feel my way around.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovitz:
the best is Webtop2SD with Webtop scripts and XFCE4 (or Gnome) cause it's real Ubuntu.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troycarpenter:
Honestly, if you have no experience in Linux, you will probably have nothing but headaches. Linux itself isn't too bad to learn on a PC, but throw in broken dependencies and other oddities of running it on a mobile platform...it's like trial by fire.

Your best bet is like ovitz says...go with webtop2SD, follow instructions. Personally I've given up on all the other fancy window managers...I simply installed gnome-panel (disabling awn, of course) and go with a mini-gnome setup that way.

Play around after you get it set up and want to learn, but I would suggest you familiarize yourself with Linux on a PC first...or not because it may be a let down to see how poorly it performs on the phone compared to a PC.

Having said that, I've been able to use the modified webtop as a decent laptop replacement for the work I do, since most of my work is on remote servers. Putty has been very nice to me.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norcalz71:
thanks for the input, luckily I'm about 80% of the way to function webtop2sd I think.

I don't mind the technical difficulties, the journey of getting it setup and learning that is half the fun usually.

And like said, I only really want it for basic stuff, nothing too heavy. I have the big work laptop for that.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exwannabe:
Webtop2sd takes the existing Moto product, "unlocks it" [fixes all the .deb junk and gives it some disk space].

"Full Debian" lets you chroot out of the Moto prison into a standard Linux.

The first choice is better if you just want to add some apps to what Moto provides. The second is best if you want to play God with your system.

If you are not a serious Linux user, the 2SD approach is best.

If you like to build your own Linux system, then the latter is the way to go.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norcalz71:
Thanks for the explanation, that was basically what I was looking for.

Is it possible to run the "full debian" method within/alongside the webtop2sd variant? To try out both worlds?

Having not ever used chroot, as I understand it, I would basically be running a "full" version of linux within the moto environment, like opening a citrix window and getting into a complete windows setup (roughly speaking)?
[Verizon Droid Charge] pizzle11:
I accidentally put my .mp5 file into phone instead of PDA in ODIN. i'm stuck at d/l screen now. I'm afraid to unplug phone.... any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I'm no expert on this but just flashing with pda might fix it. Don't do anything until someone who knows what do do replies though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pizzle11:
I found a post while i was waiting. The author wrote a "how to" on it and explained that only the modem gets messed up. He explained to just do what you said, unplug and reflash the pda. I dont have a brick after doing this but I haven't checked the modem stuff yet. After I finish flashing everything i'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks for the quick reply Jihad.

​

I wrote a web converter that takes a properly sized image (720x1280) converts it into a IMG file and packages it up into a zip file which you can download, rename to PH98IMG.zip, place on your External SDcard and flash via the bootloader.

YOU MUST HAVE S-OFF for this to work!

This is also

ONLY

for the Rezound.​

How it works.

o You create an image.

o Image must be 720x1280 in size

o Image must be in png, jpg or gif format

o UPDATED WEBSITE: You go to the converter website: http://droid.tnet.com and upload your image

o It converts the image into a downloadable zip file for you to use.

What the converter does

o checks that the image uploaded is the right type

o checks that the image is the correct dimensions

o converts the image to a IMG file

o adds the new IMG file to the android-info.txt file into a template directory

o zip's the contents up using a unique ID

o Presents you with the ability to download the file.

What you need to then

o After you download the file. rename it to PH98IMG.zip

o Place it onto your external sdcard of your Rezound

o Enter into bootloader mode and flash it

When you reboot, the new splash screen will be displayed.

Reference:

The contents of the android-info.txt file is:

modelid: PH9810000

cidnum: VZW__001

mainver: 2.01.605.11

hbootpreupdate:12

Like ANYTHING YOU FLASH... You are responsible for your own devices. These should be fine to use, but make sure you have backups in case!

UPDATED! Website Converter Page: http://droid.tnet.com

This will change soon, but I will update it in this post when I do.

Additional Functions Planned

In the works....

o Upload an IMG file and convert it back to a jpg, png or gif.

o Ability to download just the splash1.img screen from already processed screens.

o Perhaps support for other phones...

Updates

2012-04-29

o Change filename formats for better sorting and to allow additional features.

o Turned on Hot Link Protection. Some users were hotlinking to the thumbnails on the Gallery.

Previous

o Added ability to download previous processed splash files

o Updated website to provide more details and new capabilities.

2012-05-11

o Over 200 Flash Screens generated with more than 100 in the gallery to view/download

CLICK FOR GALLERY OF IMAGES PROCESSED

2012-06-10

o Added EVO 4G LTE Version of this tool

There already is a windows script. It is called SplashFlasher. It is included in a post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1006999

Careful if you use it because it includes code to wipe your Internal SDcard. The android-info.txt in his script includes

DelCache:1
DelFat:1

which should be removed if you are going to use it. I based the web converter on and found that out while testing (Thanks con247).

I was using that script until I built the web converter. The web interface is really a lot easier... just create the image, and upload and it is all done without any errors. The script does have the ability to flash the splah1.img file to the phone though.
