Could anyone throw in a modified framework.jar for stock ROM or CM9 with scrollingcache disabled? For the Sprint galaxy nexus

Most people think the Galaxy Nexus is pretty smooth, but for us OCD type and especially us former iPhone owners know it's not 60fps smooth.. It's very stuttery due to the scrolling cache... Disabling it makes it MUCH smoother.. Like iPhone 4S smooth.

I'm not sure if this was ever done on other models of the GN but there's nothing like that available for the Sprint version yet. AOKP has that option, but so far there isn't a port, either.

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anon_72:
Understandable. I've been trying to get my nexus as smooth as my 3gs. If u want to disablr scrolling cache, u could put in your build.prop

persist.sys.scrollingcache=3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Some custom ROMs, like the latest AOKP, allow you to disable the scrolling cache. Otherwise, it's not built into the default system.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdrianE46:
I'm a bit confused. Isn't scrollingcache supposed to help with smoothness? Why does disabling it make the system smoother?

scrolling cache

I was also an iphone 4s user and i noticed a huge difference in the smoothness of the devices, the 4s is much smoother and actually has 0 stuttering, on s3, even on the home screen if i scroll medium to fast i see the stuttering.

Your reply is useless.

I just wanted to confirm the OP. A good confirmation came from improved scrolling in Adobe Reader, which was horrid across multiple ROMs I've tried. It was a great deal faster with the newest Sprint OTA and GLaDOS 2.1 kernel.

The advantange of disabling the scrolling cache is more smoothness.

But what is the advantange, when it is on?

Wgich advantage has the scrolling cache?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mk_ln:
hate to echo some users above, but wouldn't scrollling cache set to true/on be better for smoothness?

For those curious about the scrolling cache here's a video called "the world of ListView" :

Even though it's quite an old video, there are still many questions on StackOverflow related to ListView which would get solved by just watching this video.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] projekZERO:
I posted this in another thread, but I thought I might make my own thread since I see a lot of posts with people asking for 3 button headphone controls.

I just bought these headphones to try out as I wanted separate controls for the volume.

Scosche IDR653MD from Amazon for $40 (Sorry, since I'm a newb I can't post a link)

They were designed with Android specifically in mind according to the guy I talked to at Scosche.

While I didn't find many reviews, the reviews I found were generally positive.

It works, because the volume slider doesn't change the volume on the phone, it just changes the volume to the headphones. The single button works as any other would.

So here is my thought on the Headphones.

The build quality of the headphones is a little on the cheap side. It's not horrible, but I think even Skullcandy's build quality is better in some cases. The bud tips are of good quality thankfully and the fitment and comfort level is pretty good. I don't notice them falling out either. The controls are down where the to headsets split and the mic is on the read earbud lead. I would have prefered the volume be up by the mic, but I can see this wouldn't have been possible with they way they are controlling the volume which I will explain further down.

I'm not audiophile, but the sound is actually pretty good in my opinion. It is certainly not as good as meelectronics M9's or Klipsch Image S4A's, but I think they are better than skullcandy by a great deal. I even think they sound better than Beats. Its obvious Scosche spent more on the sound quality than the build quality here.

The volume doesn't work perfectly. All the way down and the volume is off. And all the way up and the volume is as loud as you have the setting on the phone. But in the middle isn’t perfectly linear. If you have the slider anywhere other than off or max, the volume is somewhere around mid-range. So taking the slider off the bottom gets you a more medium/low sound 9not a whisper quiet as you might expect. As you move it up more it goes to medium, and then what I would call a medium/high side. As you’re moving the slider it doesn't gradually change, it’s like there is about 3 or four spots along the slide you hear the volume distinctly change. Once you put it in the max position volume gets very noticeably louder.

With all that said; although the volume control isn’t perfect, I found it more than acceptable for a volume control.

The single button works like any other and I am using it with Jay's headphone control app to control the single button. I use the button to answer and end calls, skip forward and backwards on tracks, and pause and play tracks. The only function that doesn't seem to work is muting calls, but I care little about that.

So overall, if you really want separate volume control like I did. I really feel these Scosche headphones are the best option at the moment.

Unless someone else has found something better.

ok i got so annoyed with acer i updated my tab myself im now running:

[Acer Iconia A500] diiorio:
Those are not the correct image and builds, you have a leaked build stuck in there.

Acer_Av041_A500_rv05rc01_PA_cis1 is the official imae

Acer_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA_cus1 is official build
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
Some got 1.031.00 as OTA from Acer its all about region and even on the 1.033.00 there is no face unlock.
[Acer Iconia A500] diiorio:
THe facelock ws removed due to the fact it is not reliable. It has been removed from current builds till google refines it and decides to release an actaul secure one that can't be unlocked by a coomon photo grpah or similiar looking people.

Simply because it's concidered a security flaw.

Now if you have installed a leak, you can face the potential of 1. the wrogn bootloader is in place and you won't get the 2 step (1-86 and 1-10)optimization processes before final reboot.

Even if you flash back, you need to change to the default bootloader as well.

031 is the old leak. there has been discussions over the issue on other forums and they figuared out what was causign improper updating .
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
ok ive come to find this to be true i have a leaked version even though a few people confirmed it was the official.....thanks,

ok so ive tried a few methods of goin back to stock to getting back to stock to get the ota but of course since no recovery no luck.

ive tried the method in this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622425

but i cant get the tab into apx mode? ive tried loads of times but i just can get it to go into apx with the pin/reset power method,

ive tried using the pbj20upgrade.exe but it says i need the new image version (Acer_A500_1.016.05_COM_GEN1)

any idea what step i take from here as i seem to have hit a wall :(

My wife got her Droid Razr Maxx 5 weeks ago. Today the sound quit working so like a dutiful husband I looked at all the settings and found nothing wrong. Stumped I sat the phone down and went to cook lunch for our family and when I came back the phone was sitting in the exact same position but the screen was shattered.

(I cannot post links due to my lurker status, sorry will be more productive so I can earn the right, but PM me I can send a link to what it looks like)

This phone has never been dropped and my wife takes great care when using it. Verizon will not replace it wihtout having me pay which I refuse to do (had she or I dropped it I would cough up the money in no time). I have contacted Motorola as well and was told to send it in but if the techs decide to they can charge me to fix it regardless. Customer care at Verizon said since this has never happened to another phone this is not a manufacturers defect (reasoning fuzzy?). Has anyone heard or seen this before or have any suggestions of what could have caused it or how we should continue?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
PM some pics. Don't you think it might have cracked due a fast temperature change, a thermal shock?..

It was in the kitchen? If manual do nor warn about it you should complain regarding this issue. You should get a replacement

As you told, if you did not droped it, it may be related with some thermal issue, like you said about overheating.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Accessories] mtmerrick:
In the last few days dad got an Archos 80 G9 Tubo - yes, i helped him pick it out :P . i also spent a couple days with it playing with it and setting it up.

One of the things she wants to do is plug in a USB stick, but the port on the back is almost unusable for anything because its so close to the silver plate inside - there's simply not enough clearance. The one cable he was able to push into it (the cable from his iPod classic) bent the port at such an angle i was worried it was going to break.

WITHOUT ROOTING (i tried rooting his X2, that went over like a ton of bricks) is there a way to use either a USB on the go cable, or a super-slim USB extension cord (if it exists) to make a full sized USB port available to him?

Thanks in advance for any answers.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Accessories] android.i.am:
Hello,

There are 3 ways that I'm able to attach a full-size USB flash-drive stick into my Archos 80 G9 Classic:

(1) using the micro-USB port with this USB-female-to-micro-USB-male adapter works for me when I want to attach any "fat" full-size USB stick (search for product #B006XL26TS on Amazon);

(2) using the full-size-USB port without an adapter - this thin USB flash drive can attach to that weird angle full-size USB port with ease without using any adapter (search for product #B003DTLWHU on Amazon);

(3) using the full-size-USB port with a corded adapter that looks like this but not exactly this particular model (search for product #B001TH7GV4 on Amazon) - I don't remember where I got this adapter but it fits fine in that full-size USB port and I can attach any "fat" full-size USB stick...

Sorry I couldn't post the direct links since I don't have enough posts. Good luck.

I have two issues with the WIFI over CM9/aokp builds based on ICS 4.0.4 with my Cap. Anyone knows the fix?:

1. It seems the EAP-LEAP auth can not be used even if I use the Leap free or directly modify the configure file :(. but my company uses this auth method. I remember it is working with ics 4.0.3. Does anyone know whether there is a fix for this?

2. I think it is a bug. try the steps below, the Cap will reboot by itself or wifi will be unable to use until reboot.

a. put your phone to flight mode.

b. enable wifi.

c. put your phone back to normal mode(disable flight mode).

d. you will find the wifi has no connection to AP or your phone reboot by itself...

It should work. Maybe you don't have /etc, but only /system/etc (/etc is just a symlink)

If you run

you should get as output the content of sysctl.conf

If you get

sysctl: /etc/sysctl.conf: No such file or directory

sysctl -p /PATH/TO/THE/FILE/sysctl.conf
