When you ODIN'd EL29, did you use Full or NoData? When you downgrade from ICS to GB, you must use Full or you'll get lots of FCs.

Also after GB is installed, do not restore a backup from ICS.

I have been using Advanced Task Manager Pro to end apps that I don't use but people said it wastes battery life, is this correct?

What's your suggestion?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spex:
Its always running in background and that way uses ram

so yes it wastes battery life

correct me if im wrong
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Radon7:
Im using system tuner pro with auto-kill :cool:

i was using advanced task killer pro too, but i was tired to kill it manually every time :D :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
My suggestion is to not use Task Killers....

Just enable back button killing

Ace-ing all tests.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jappert:
There's so much debate on this, just google something like "task killers android" and you'll find loads of good articles on this topic.

In short: task killers are bad, don't use them. Apps you kill will load again, this takes CPU and drains battery. Android is designed this way; it's been specifically made for multitasking you know. :rolleyes:

So my suggestion: let android handle task killing and only use task killers for apps that have crashed/frozen.

Why not use samsungs task manager on cm7

Its closed

unwritten sentance
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Conclusion:
When I end apps, I tick Advanced Task Killer Pro as well to end it so it still runs in the background?

Advanced Task Killer Pro has a auto-kill option

Where do I enable that? and does it really work?

I'm using a ROM which doesn't have task manager

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Conclusion:
So all Task Managers in Android market will uses battery as it still runs in the background?

Using the long press option is better or CM7 Task Manager?

P.S - When I end apps, I tick Advanced Task Killer Pro as well to end it so it still runs in the background?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] dxppxd:
Tasks you end with task killers eventually load up again. This makes the CPU work twice, when killing and when loading again. This is specially the case for apps you often use.

Working CPU requires battery, so yeah task killers are bad for battery life.

If you want more ram, try tweaking the 'minfree' of Android (Google it). I use free Autokiller from the market, check the documentation and you'll get an idea of how Android manages the closing of unused tasks AUTOMATICALLY.

Let's see the performance of our beloved phone.

Throw some benchmark results.

This is the Official Thread for Benchmarking on One V.

Screenshots are a must .

Also please specify all details such as ROM(n/a atm), Kernel etc.

Kernel: Titanium-Workx-Testkeys#2. Check the thread.

[HTC One V] shubhamchamaria:

It will be nice as people will post their views and atleast we can compare 3D & 2D performance..

I was just bored so I started it..
[HTC One V] Adi_Pat:
Benchmarks are not at all useless!

For cooked ROMs, yes

Not for kernels! They tell you whether a particular change in the kernel has actually worked or no.
[HTC One V] tranceph0rmer:
Are you over locked on the Titanium kernel?

Coz my device is getting only 2000 or so.

I Can and have change between different hboots. I also have tried hassoon tool before ics and it worked through fast boot. Now with ics, I initially thought adb wasn't seeing my device but it seems like it does bc I was able to super cid. My error is that it fails to write recovery. So that I can then root then flash custom roms as well.

Problem for me I use internet from my phone since at home no internet. And I just got throttled. But I have most files needed in my computer already.

I actually figured out (someone helped me) the problem, I wasn't in fastboot when typing in commands

Make sure you are in the right directory in your command prompt. The same directory as you stored fastboot

Then flash your recovery through command prompt

Does not appear to me to unlock the screen, can be a combination of keys to unlock?
[General Questions and Answers] idroids:
Taking the split screen feature away from my Iconia A500 is like taking my steering wheel and my automatic transmissions away from my car! Argggghhh!

I'm certain that countless other tablet users are going through the same needless withdrawal symptoms at this very moment!

Cutting corners on an OS so that it works exactly the same on phones and tablets makes about as much sense as saying that the engines used on a 2-seater plane, in a jet fighter, and in a 747 should all work the same so as to give the passengers the same experience. That is "plane" old silly. What is even SILLIER is to insist on putting a plush airliner seat into a 2 passenger plane or to insist on keeping a propeller on jumbo 747s.

I totally get that the split screen (showing ALL the home screens at once above and the Apps and the Widgets below) would not work well on an small phone but why should it since it's NOT designed for a small screen? Why do tablet users have to put up with taking 3 steps backward just so that phone users can take 3 steps forward.

Tablet users should simply be given the choice to customize their experience so that they can take advantage of the extra real estate on their screens instead of being forced to put up with restrictive aspects of an OS that is trying to be everything to everyone. Sure ICS is a big improvement on Honeycomb, but why did some aspects of its OS have to be amputated simply to satisfy some designer's need to have a single OS for 2 VERY different gadgets?

So PLEASE, when the next version of ICS comes out PLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEASSSEEE give us tablet users the split screen again through the long tap on the Home Screens! Think about it! How often are you going to change your background? Making the long tap lead ONLY to the background change screen is such a WASTE of a unique gesture!

Flashing a stock ROM will restore a IMEI if the IMEI has not already been corrupted.

I can say this with 100% confidence as I have been in a similar situation. However I did not play with the nv_data.bin file before flashing a stock ROM.

To the OP.

Do a search of the I9000 (SGS) threads for a post about restoring IMEI to nv_data.bin I am sure that a XDA user has posted that they can restore the IMEI number. This may be the only option before returning the handset to Manafacturer for service
