[Samsung Infuse 4G] electricpete1:
Yesterday I made a full backup using Infuse toolkit of my configuration: (qksters stock rooted UCLB3 from Heimdall, with Entropy’s DD kernel and Holo launcherVoltage Control with some UV that hasn't caused any problems, lots of applications.)

Today I went to Ethereal. Specifically:

1 - Went to CWM and wiped data, wiped cache, wiped Davlik.

2 - Installed Ethereral.

3 - While in Ethereal I reestablished gmail (application specific password) and updated Holo launcher from market, installed Quadrant from the market and ran it a few times. That's about all I did in Ethereal... Never changed Kernels.

Later I tried to go back to my original configuration. Specifically:

1 - Went back to CWM and again wiped data, wiped cache

2 – Ran Infuse Toolkit. Restore Full Rom.

3 – Reboot.

4 – Reboot proceeds fine. I see all my icons and widgets on the screen. I can scroll. I see normal “media scanning message” in notification bar. At the end of the 2nd “media scanning” the message "media scanning complete" appears (for 2nd time) and remains... everything is frozen and within a few seconds the phone reboots. And after reboot, it sometimes seems to think I'm low on battery even though I'm not. Plug in and initially shows empty on the bar... later jumps to >50% on the bar.

Tried removing external sd card and repeating, same result. (still reboots at end of 2nd scanning period).

Tried again CWM wipe data, wipe cache, wipe Davlik. Infuse Toolkit recover full rom again..... same result.

Tried removing UV by flashing in CWM the special file for that purpose (I think it's called vcremove.zip). Same result.

I was able to get into Tasker and disable it before freeze). Thought that might make a difference because my Tasker does a lot. Didn't make any difference.

I imagine there must be something that I screwed up somewhere, but I have no idea what it is.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to get back to original configuration from yesterday (I'd like to not have to set up everything again if that can be avoided).

UPDATE: MAYBE SOLVED:

During a later reboot, I quickly switched to Touchwiz and uninstalled Holo Launcher. Then reinstalled Holo. Seems to be working ok now.

Maybe something about the update that I applied to Holo while in Ethereal confused my phone when I got back to Stock GB? If so it's odd that it only shows up when the sd card scanning finishes. Weird. I'll post back in a day or so to report if problem is really fixed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] electricpete1:
SOLVED

UPDATE: SOLVED

After a day of putting the phone through its paces (reactivating Tasker, re-activating UV, rebooting, taking pictures, running programs, rearranging desktop, email, video etc), phone is still working flawlessly..

As you recall from above message, it was previously self-rebooting within a few minutes of reboot when the 2nd SD scan finished, every time.

That behavior stopped as soon as I removed/re-installed Holo Launcher and everything has been flawless since.

So I think the problem must have been something to do with the update I installed on Holo launcher while in Ethereal.....

I don't exactly understand why that would be...after all the Toolkit should have stored the entire Holo launcher program/data in a separate location from the installed Holo launcher program/data.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
I'm glad to hear that you got it working. :)

It might be that holo launcher stores some files or data in an area not handled up by the toolkit. Generally speaking, if you wipe your SD card prior to a restore, this is more likely to happen. I'm looking into improving how the toolkit handles backup of data not located in the most common places.

For now, best practice is to also have a TiBu backup to restore any non-system apps that the toolkit doesn't pick up.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mr.jaguar:
are there any plans to rebuild this to work with ics or jb?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
I've been planning on an update or two... One to close out GB for those who want to stay with stock-based custom firmware and maybe include a few ICS options.

The second would be focused on 4.x firmwares, particularly jellybean. Some features are easy - mirroring most of the current features of the toolkit. Kernels would likely be removed since they are more tightly integrated with the rest of the build... There is terminal emulator available now for Aroma installer so I'll probably add that.

Enhancements to efs partition backup and addition of efs restore options would be useful too.

I'll throw this out to the Infuse community.... What features would you like to see?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Skebodan:
The features don't matter to me(as yet), I just want to be able to use your tool kit on my Infuse with JB as soon as possible. Running Slimbean 4.2.2 at the moment.

If anything, if you could make the current features even more user(noob) friendly why not, but I don't really see a need.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JimDantin:
I'll echo that -- I'm in the early stages of updating my Infuse - seems like the REALLY simple things hang me up for hours and make me feel really n00b. It took me two days to figure out how to actually run the scripts! Everyone says to RUN the scripts before installing a ROM, but no one actually goes through the steps on how to do it. Super easy once you see it, but a horrible roadblock until then.

I really appreciate all the efforts that went into creating these utilities. The Infuse is a solid piece of hardware that will have a much longer usable life once JB becomes a common (and SIMPLE) upgrade option.

I have a set of beats (the tours). I was told by a guy at radio shack that they would work no problem with my new phone. I kinda figured they wouldn't, so I said I would return them if they didn't. Well I happen to like the sound and I don't want to return them, but half of the remote features don't work right. Play/pause works, but skip tracks dials last called number . Is there anyway to remap this in system? I'm rooted running charmeleon Rom.

Beats are horrible headphones. Any audiophile I know wouldn't be caught dead with those on. Hype + marketing = Bose/Beats/Monster/Apple.

High priced crap.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DarkManX4lf:
I dunno.... I think the Bose headphones are pretty good...At least the noise canceling ones are good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
Eh, I honestly hate Bose almost as much as Apple. I'm a huge speaker guy, and they make some of the worst speakers in the world in terms of what you get for the price.

There's a somewhat famous write-up where this audiophile ripped a $1000 Bose set to pieces and reviewed the build quality, and did lots of sound tests that test for decimal levels at various frequencies throughout the spectrum. The results were both amusing and horrifying. They're a brand who uses marketing and advertising to sell products.

Similar to Apple, they make DECENT products, but they're highly over-hyped, and you can get far better for the money you spend. I'll link that article if I can find it. It is eye-opening.

Edit: Here it is - I'd recommend you sit down and take the time to read thoroughly when you can. Quite an interesting read! And this is full of sonic FACTS, not idiots opinions (although there's certainly some opinion in it).

I've flashed around a bit with different roms and as much as I enjoy touchwiz, I love the stock mms app that comes in AOKP/ vanilla android ICS and was just wondering if anyone had made any type of universal port for touchwiz roms that work just as smoothly? Saw a couple on the play store but they were total rubbish and full of bugs. gonna stay on AOKP in the meantime. Just curious if anyone else shared the thought :D

Hey! This app looks great. I just don't know how to disable the messaging app given normally...any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Biporch:
That's the problem. Even if you get a compatible full asop mms, you have to keep the default samsung app. If you delete it, it will cause problems and FCs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ChocolateSnow:
Thank you phalanx, I hadn't realized serendipity incorporated aosp apps into touchwiz. That does further spark my curiosity as to if It's possible to pull the AOSP mms app as a stand alone apk that I could keep and install no matter what ROM I switch to since serendipity makes it seem possible if I just disable the stock mms app.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Joborule:
How do you do this? I'm the same way as jrod. Love what TouchWiz offers aside from the messaging app. Favour the look of stock ICS one instead. (Because I like the pictures inside the message thread)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jrod091:
Simple way would be to change your pngs in your drawable-hdpi folder and change some xmls as well, not really all that difficult once you get started

Edit: sorry, completely forgot that Samsung's has text bubbles, so it would get a little trickier, I'll look into it

Edit: So, I've been real busy with school and stuff, so I haven't been able to look at the apk. Also, I don't have a Samsung Mms.apk since I like the AOSP feel of ICS better and have been on AOKP since it came out. So in trying to find a Samsung Mms.apk in our dev threads, I found that Serendipity 9 has an AOSP Mms.apk in it and is TW-based. It also has a lot of other AOSP apks in it, and it looks nice and runs pretty well. (flashed it to see everything first-hand). That might be an answer

Am I being paranoid or is my phone getting slower and slower :S I get tired of closing apps in the 'Running Services' tab. Is there a way to completely close an app? I got in the habit of hitting back until I return back to the homescreen but that doesn't work on all apps such as Facebook.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiffer1991:
No thats the propper way..

If an app doesnt stop after hitting the back button it wont do this anyway

you have to kill it on task manager

apps like facebook wont close doen because they own notifications and live messaging

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MichaelOrnsholt:
Hi

Android are supposed to keep apps 'cached' in the background - having them ready should you need them once again.

One way to 'kill' apps, to free memory is to install a 'task manager' og 'task killer' (search one of these phrases in play).

They are designed to kill a list of apps with a single touch...however Google doesn't recommend this way, as they claims it might leave the system in an unstable state.

As i can't post links, you can 'google' this: 'task-killers-answer-google-developers'
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CosmicDan:
You might have a rogue app or memory leaks, or your VM values are bad for your device. Are you running out of RAM? Is your CPU usage maxing out? Are you using swap or compcache? What are your VM/sysctrl values? All these things and much more can destroy a ROM.

I find that many custom ROM's have a habit of using stupid VM values. Try getting RAM Manager from Play Store and using the "Balance" preset, it works great. I also highly suggest "SystemPanel App" from Play Store (costs $3), it has an awesome Monitoring function to record a history of how all your apps, services and processes are using the CPU. That is, if the CPU is maxing out... get a CPU Usage Monitor to find that out.

EDIT: If you are using an sd-ext partition, it can also kill performance. Especially if you move dalvik-cache to sd.

Why does Sprint always do this? The other carriers go the same way and they speed the other way only to realize its a dead end and then they turn around and try to catch up. They did it with WiMAX when everyone else went LTE and now they did it again with Wallet when Isis is the standard. They need to learn its ok to be like everyone else as long as you add your own stamp and flavor to it. This needs to stop.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
Well WiMAX was a flop it wasn't due to the tech really was due to the freq and their backhaul had they done the roll out right it would have been ok. Not to mention when they did WiMAX no one else even had 4g at the time I believe. So yeah now they are playing catch up a hair but they are dumping oodles of money in to nv so I think they will be ok.

Edit and as far as wallet goes instead of doing their own they should team up.with google although I don't know how well that would work out. Also Isis is by the cc companies and vzw and att I'm sure it will be one wacked out system just like banks are anymore.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
Yeah I believe they went live with Wimax sooner than they should have. They were the first to have it but by the time it rolled out everywhere LTE was up, running and blowing the barn doors off Wimax. You live and learn I guess.

As far as Wallet is concerned, I agree that they should team up with Google and perfect what's already out and running. I'm pretty sure there's a way to make this work where everybody profits.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] duffkitty:
I was in the camp that it was a novelty thing that wouldn't be worth using. I got an additional $40 and have used it at McDonalds, 7/11 and CVS already and frankly I rather like it.

It's benefit to a card is rather small but I do think it has a strong future. I carry a trifold wallet and am a pack rat so there's always a lot of cards in it, top that with the fact my employer gives us a crap load of Macy's gift cards every Christmas I find Google Wallet useful. My phone is always at the ready but my wallet is jammed in a pocket full of keys and change. I unlock Wallet in line and just tap my phone.

If more vendors add nfc at checkout then we can consolidate those loyalty cards as well.

Google Wallet probably isn't for everyone and I am a niche consumer but if ALL phones supported NFC payment options I truly think that it will succeed. I don't think it'll change the face of payment options though.
