I've tried the V6 supercharger script, nova, and apex. NONE of them eliminate launcher redraws. It's so annoying!

The only launcher that provides a smooth stock experience with no redraws is...the stock launcher. Why? I love the features of the other launchers, especially being able to back up my homescreen. But the redraws kill the experience. Why is it so hard for aftermarket launchers to replicate the experience?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GinoSylum:
Whaa...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hydrony:
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

Try adding this to your build.prop. I had the same problem and this little tweak locks the home screen in memory :) works great for me. Pay attention, that you don't mess something up in your build.prop!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
I believe Apex has the option to lock the launcher in memory, if not do the build.prop tweak in the post ^ mine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Add. "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1" right? I I might use this cause it annoys me too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
Try a less intense kernel too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Wow. My nova launcher rarely redraws. Rarely. And when it does its quick.

let it be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Laucher reloads and redraws are the results of Androids wonderful memory management. You'll have to find a launcher which locks in the memory, but by doing so, other apps will auto-kill faster than usual.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
When I run nova or anything other than stock launcher, system panel shows its process as "perceptible" and using 40mb of ram while stock launcher has a process running too. Essentially I find its running both launchers, being more prone to kicking it out of memory.

Also on 4.0.1 this happened with the stock launcher getting redrawn. On 4.0.4 it seems to be fixed almost completely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I still don't have perceptible in my sys panel and my nova usually hovers around 42ish and Max around 50. But I did buy the nova prime and set it as default. No sign of the other launcher unless it is system UI which hovers around 25mb.

let it be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Yeah I'm jealous then. I been messing around tonight and can't get it to stop showing like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
This is why I freeze/uninstall all launchers except the one I'm using in Titanium backup. Though you shouldn't really have to, because Android should kill off the old launcher process eventually (when it needs more memory for something else) and it shouldn't return unless you manually switch back to that launcher. But I freeze it anyways just to ensure it doesn't interfere with anything. I freeze a lot of other Google/Android services that I don't use too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bagl0312:
I have been using apex launcher since the beginning on my galaxy nexus. However after android 4.2.2 update, I found that redraws have been really frequent and annoying.

The same happens on my nexus 7, especially after using memory hog apps like the "new hangouts" (really, really poorly optimized...)

Indeed apex reloads always, after exiting from hangouts.

Recently I tried also nova launcher (importing all settings from apex, so my configuration is identical), and I have to say that nova has much less redraws with respect to apex (both on galaxy nexus and nexus 7).

For example when rotating the screen from portrait to landscape, I don't experience any visible redraw with nova, while apex was redrawing quite often...

So far so good, I decided to switch to nova, even if I liked apex really much
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SDAC:
wetter app caused launcher redraws

I also had frequent launcher redraws on my GN... the issue came with Android 4.2 and got MUCH worse with the recent 4.3 update (i'm on stock rom).

yesterday I removed the widget from wetteronline.com's "wetter app" I had on my homescreen - and surprise! I could not believe it, did not have a SINGLE launcher redraw since then (2 days heavy use) what a relief...

so I still think it is a bad memory management issue in Android, but maybe it is worth trying if one of your apps or widgets is contributing to the problem.

What recovery do you guys prefer?

I've seen a lot of Vivids with WCX these days.

Post your experience with each one!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Brand New:
Stock CWM ftw
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
CWM still has a lot of issues. It's been causing quite a few hard bricks. Anyone that still has it, I would highly suggest switching to WCX recovery. I have yet to try TWRP but from what I've heard from all the devs, it still has a few kinks. I wouldn't recommend anything other than WCX at the moment.

I don't really see it as whats "preferred". You don't want something on your device that can potentially cause a hard brick. A recovery is something you don't use very often, so it's best to go with the one that just works.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Archector:
Nice answer, right now I'm on the stock RUU ICS rom with an unlocked bootloader and I want to flash the WCX recovery, I just have to put the wcxrecovery.img in the microSD root, enter in Hboot, select recovery and then flash it with "fastboot flash recovery wcxrecovery.exe"?

Do I have to make a backup of something after doing this?

Thanks in advance for your answer.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Actually, just put the wcxrecovery on your computer where you have adb and fastboot set up. If you don't know where that is, just download the wcxjb root zip from the guide in my signature and unzip it to your desktop. Enter hboot on your phone and select fastboot. Shift + right click on your computer inside the folder you just unzipped and select open a command window here. THEN, type in the command "fastboot flash recovery wcxrecovery.img" and you're good to go.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Brand New:
Crap I moved back to linux after I s-off'ed, is there anyway I can use fastboot without having to dig out my aging Pentium 4?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
I know it's possible, but I've never tried it. The best tip I've picked up from the guide was this

If you have any idea what that means, it may be of help to you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
Stock CWM. Never used anything else, never had problems, never plan to use anything else.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Archector:
Just download and install the Android SDK for linux, what distribution are you using?

I suppose you're using Ubuntu or some .deb based distribution, this tutorial may serve for you:

[YOUTUBE]dfdpYFMax8M[/YOUTUBE]

Running something on "sudo" is giving superuser attributes to the processes and services that a program or whatever you are running needs to have to function properly. Yes it's important when you flash with fastboot.

If you can flash on a laptop will be better for you, a friend of mine bricked his galaxy sII when he was flashing and there was an electricity short.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
I use the recovery-beta2 recovery from thecubed. I tried WCX but I couldn't get any ROM's to flash with it... nothing but bootloops for some strange reason (yes I fastboot flashed the boot.img first people). I reflashed thecubed's recovery right after having issues and flashing ROM's worked again. I'm sticking with what works and I've had zero issues with thecubed's recovery after using for several months.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Brand New:
I know I sound redundant, but does anyone have a link to the latest WCX recovery? :o
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
You have to download from WildChild's website.... It's included in his ROM zip. You have to have 10 posts on his site before you can download anything so be prepared to "earn" the download.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pside15:
Did you use the recovery un-installer to get rid of CWM before you tried the WCX recovery? I remember some people having issues trying to use WCX over one of the previous CWMs without un-installing it first.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
Actually your incorrect,its available freely from the rooting flashing thread on here...as far as earning something....dont like participation dont use my work either way tomorrows another day and life goes on now doesnt it....theres no entitilement to anything@snotty "earned" comment....;)

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] robertmoore208:
Some people just throw stuff out like they know what's going on... Wow get facts right first bro
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] thecubed:
Y'know if CWM loops, it's because your rom of choice had a useless ext4 performance tuning script in it that changed some of the mount options of /cache.

If you have CWM and find that after flashing a ROM that does weird things to your Vivid, just reboot to fastboot, then issue "fastboot erase cache" then boot to recovery and format /cache.

CWM hasn't caused any hard bricks, it's ROM developers that aren't properly checking their 'init.d tweaks' and updater-scripts. Now that we have s-off, a bad tweak or updater-script can and WILL make your phone hard to fix.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] baconnbitz2010:
just used TWRP on my Sprint Gnex and love the interface! I used CWM on my old Epic 4G and it worked great too. To me, seeing all the options on that screen is easier....seems stable.

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

Great point but how would the average Joe know that about a rom before a flash? I'd love to be able to know that and avoid bricking altogether (but wouldn't we all). any tips?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
I don't mind participation... I just find it hard to participate in a forum where I can't download anything. Kind of hard to comment on something that you can't download IMO.

Not sure if this was directed at me but I'll assume it is. WC closed all of his dev threads on XDA (Vivid forum at least) which is why I assumed it wasn't here anymore (yes I searched before replying). Not sure that I've ever seen dev related content stuck in a [GUIDE] thread (maybe a link to the thread that has it) so not sure why this was the place chosen and probably why I missed it. Apparently I'm not the only one since I've seen multiple people asking who can't find it. I appreciate you keeping me honest though "bro".
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] propofokgov:
WCX all the way, ROM's, Recovery, & Kernel. Now, I'm not trying to say that CWM doesn't work, I used it alot when I was rooting & flashing my Aria... but I've had nothing but 100% success using WCX Recovery & ROM's since before I started beta testing for him (along with all the other dedicated members).

I've never used TWRP before, & all I think about when I see that word is Big Booty Shaking!!! ;-)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jgav71:
WCX! I have to say that EVERYTHING that he and his team put out is top notch!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dizzyraider:
Never used TWRP myself and nothing really against it as it does look nice, but from what I have read is that since it is not build for the Raider/Vivid from the ground up, so it may not be as stable in its current form.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cruzin_cruzing:
Whatever you've read is wrong. It's built from thecubed latest ICS source. I've beta tested it and even those builds were pretty stable. The latest version has almost no issues.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bigballa:
TWRP hands down is great. CWM touch was my first favorite but twrp refines the UI that's was makes it the best Touch recovery there is. If you want non touch recovery then cwm hands down.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ronnie498:
WCX in my opinion the best choice....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] GeeLant:
CWM.. works great with me, never had issues
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] austin4913:
Agreed...I had issues w cwm. Wcx is what I use on my vivid...just wish the HOX development was further along...but progress takes time..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] exynos5250x:
Theres no wcx....its AmonRA recovery with holiday recovery.rc and who ever compiled it changes.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] thecubed:
CWM has not hard bricked a single phone. The only 'bricks' are caused by bad ROM devs who format /cache in a strange way. To fix this, just boot to fastboot then issue "fastboot erase cache". Done. CWM does not brick phones, it CANT.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
I'm sorry, I should've been more specific. The majority of issues came with the ICS update with regards to rooting. I don't know all the details. All I remember is what Wildchild said and reading all those threads with people with hard bricks involving CWM and the ICS update.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theshamrockking:
Alright I have used CWM on plenty of phones and I originally started my vivid off with WCX (I loved it!) I am now on TWRP I have to say that having used CWM on so many devices and for so long that TWRD is just to fancy for me :P i plan on continuing to use TWRP untill the rom in using get its next update in wich then ill go through the time time to change back to WCX. Now dont get me wrong TWRP is amazing for a recovery. Works fast looks nice i had no issues with it but like i said i like the simple idea of a recovery.
[Sony Tablet S] R2142:
I have upgraded to Sony Official Android 4.0.3 and I was playing around with booting my Sony Tablet using tricks from any other android.

The power up and down and power dont work. Then I tried any other combination and was successful in getting into Android Recovery system by holding down Vol up Button and pressing power button, then soon as Sony splashes, release the power button and viola you are in system recovery. I thought it would help someone.

For the record if this is already posted, sorry, I did not see it

R2142
[Sony Tablet S] agc93:
Yep, this is already well known. It is the same method used by practically every Android device with a power button and volume buttons. It's vital whenever doing almost anything complex since Recovery allows you to flash custom images, such as those used by condi's well-known AllinOne tool.
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
...but what we don't know is how to catch the "download" mode, the one allowing fastboot and low-level partition flashing!

Many Android devices have it, and there also must be an easy way for Sony's techs to bring a bricked tablet S back to life...
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
I think he never read any new posts here i think getting in the recovery was one of the first things discovered, and this means if he just discovered this, that he has a unprerooted ICS version and so not rootable for now. Too bad
[Sony Tablet S] magick86:
I'd just love for a way to root my stock ICS firmware, or to reflash a HC rootable one. I screwed up my upgrade and now I am stuck without root :(

SGS3 uses the S5C73M3 sensor, SGS2 uses S5K3H2YX sensor. Apparently the SGS2 sensor is the same as the one used in the HTC One X so I wonder if some of the features like zero shutter lag and image taking while videoing can be brought to the SGS2 via software

NOTE: USING THESE FILES AT YOUR OWN RISK. READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE INSTALLING.

MADE IN GERMANY

i was testing all kernels, roms, mods and tweaks for samsung galaxy s plus.

my idea was, to make a version with the best

working

combination

without anything to do

= an all-in-one-rom

GIGABREAD+ is the result and i just want to share it with you.

note: this rom does not support other themes at this moment.

YOU can customize GIGABREAD+ and make it to your personal ROM with AROMA INSTALLER!

note: this is the best combination for fast, stable and elegance usage. (battery drain in sleepmode < 1%/hour)

so you have to do nothing on it.

you can correct me, if i did some wrong modifications or have forgotten something to do.

take it like it is or try one of the other very nice roms for our sgs+ device.

if you have any ideas for new features or you want some more modifications - let me know, i'll add this to the wishlist (post #2)...

i am glad if you like this rom and you want share it on other websites, but please

DO

NOT

SHARE THE DONWLOADLINK. JUST GIVE A HINT TO THIS TOPIC!

because it is very important to read all this here and always being up to date, thanks.

extra special thanks to all donators!
