Go to settings> apps> all, and wipe data for media storage app, and then data in what music players you have and use. I use Google music for everything except Bluetooth, and for that I use power amp. Hate the stock music player and delete it after every Rom install, cause it interferes with how I use widgetsoid with Google music.

Is there a way to have the new sweep features with another kernel? If I update the Rom to newest and flash different kernel, the sweeps just won't work? Just wondered for in a flash in a couple weeks or something, otherwise perfectly happy still on 5.7.

Mike,

Is the md5 right in the change log? It's showing the same as 5.8.1.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
No, I had to update it. It's correct now.

I'll be interested for those with the contacts lag to try 6.1.1 to see if it's still there.

Mike, you rock. Thank you for including an option to remove the sweep2wake. While it is a nice feature and I haven't had any issues with it, I would like to turn it off because I'm not sure if there will be any long term effects of keeping the screen active all the time, eg the screen/digitizer dying after a month or so of being constantly on.

I'm curious to see if I will get a little more battery life also. I'm still getting a day, but any improvements are a plus. :p

Can someone test this?

Have not tested it so backup current setup.

http://db.tt/HqgXlIqC

First time I have tried this.

If it works you should have transparent navbar.

Modded the 6.0 Rosie but I don't think it changed from 6.0 to 6.1

Clear cache and dalvik

Edit: Just tested and it works perfectly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 11secEVO:
Can someone please let me know if there is a stock Kernel with DualCore. I like the stock battery life better. I'm not trying to be an ass but the battery life is not so good with 1.7
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rootlinux:
Check SuperLTE thread.

Duce posted a few dual mods and included Mean kernel in Aroma.

Think that should work I would think.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sabbys:
Those using nova would not see any effects, is that correct?

You are correct.

The mod is for Sense only.

Also if anyone uses Ultimate Screen Rotation from the market it will force Rosie to use landscape without any mods.

On the transparent dock mod I posted, it should be transparent it landscape as well.

Mike,

I am downloading the nightly now. I'll install in the morning. Before I do, I'll get some logcats on my current version.

The contact lag issue is huge to me. I think it may be related to the lag I have with Google Search since I had contacts and messages as one of the options for it to search.

On another note, I know you said the framework had limitations as far as what you could do easily. Do you think having a phantom rotate toggle button would be possible? The reason this would be awesome is for the times you are stuck watching a video in a browser and you are stuck in portrait mode. The video is buffering, possibly playing, then you have to exit out and toggle autorotate so you can watch the video in landscape mode.

Hoping several of you who have the lag issue will test 6.1.1 in the nightlies (see OP). Cubbies... I know you are going to test this morning: I did get your PM BTW, hope you got mine. I need a few testers though as one really isn't enough. There's a decent possibility 6.1.1 will fix the lag but even if it doesn't, it allows me to move on and test other possibilities. Can't really move forward without getting the verdict on 6.1.1 first though as I'm not able to reproduce the problem: I never get any lag.

Thanks,

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
never any lag ova here!! always perfect! :good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
I just did full wipe on latest version and no lag yet... It usually comes back in a few days. As soon as I get the lag I will help out with testing and logcats.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Thanks. For those that have lag, it'd be helpful to actually do a dirty flash and not a clean flash. The fix that I tried will work (IF it works) on dirty flash or clean, so doing a dirty flash might help us determine sooner if the fix works: because it'll lag right away on a dirty flash if the fix doesn't work.

Ugh. That's a lot of "ifs". :)

Not sure how to read that. You mean you're getting lag on 6.1 and you haven't tried the 6.1.1 nightly yet to see if it too has lag? Or you mean you already grabbed the nightly and you're getting lag on that already?

I spent yesterday around the house and tried a few things like playing around with freezing User Dictionary and removing the Facebook for HTC Sense from the Accounts & Sync in the hopes it'd fix my lag issues but no go. :(

Not that this is going to help you at all with the lag issue since I didn't have it before, but so far 6.1.1 is running great. I'm running it with s2w turned off, option 4. Thanks again for the option to turn off s2w.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sabbys:
But I did a very clean wipe install last night and I had to restore them both from a TB backup - FWIW.

sabbys
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
Okay, I've gone ahead and flashed the 6.1.1. nightly, and here's what I've found so far.

I was having the lag consistently before I dirty flashed 6.1.1 (coming from 6.0, not 6.1 in case that matters). After the flash and restart, I proceeded to reenable all the stuff I use that gets hosed during flashing. Just in case it matters, that's AdAway, Avast Anti-Theft, Secure Settings Helper, Link2SD 2nd partition mounting, and if necessary which in this case it was, resetting my phone's voicemail number back to my Google Voice number.

However, I also still had a delay in my messaging app when I tried to open an existing thread. It wasn't even a long thread like my Twitter one but a single SMS Facebook notification which took >30 seconds to open. So I decided to try again with a fresh contacts file: disabled Google Contact syncing and wiped my contacts file (using the method posted here earlier where we clear data from both Contacts Storage and the related People app). With a empty Contacts file, not a single delay, as expected. I may need to try to run this way for a day just to see, though it'd have to be a day when I'm not leaving the house at all since not having access to my Contacts while mobile wouldn't be a good thing.

Anyhoo, I've just now re-enabled Google Contacts sync and we'll see where we go from here. I usually get anywhere from a couple hours to a few days on a fresh contacts storage wipe, but if this has indeed fixed the problem, perhaps it'll stay away completely. Of course, I wanted to make sure you knew Mike, that I did still have the lag there before I wiped my contacts file. Now that it's clean and resyncing, I'll let you know when and if it returns.

PS I didn't enable any other syncing with my contacts, only Google's.

PPS not that important but just FYI, the changelog.txt for the nightlies lists the current build as v6.6.1 instead of v6.1.1.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
Mikey,

So far so good with no sms lag with a dirty flash from 6.1 to 6.1.1

I'll keep you updated after a day or so of use and more sms use....

Thanks again for ur hard and dedicated Android work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEYofR:
He needs logcats.

Next time could you install alogcat and save the log after the lag happens and before you fix it by wiping?

It's a favor to ask but you may possibly help not merely Mikey fix meanrom but everyone fix every rom, including _stock_.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
which kernel you looking for???
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
I'm one of the peeps who has sent him my logcat file in the past so he's already seen mine. I will send a fresh logcat under 6.1.1 when and if the problem recurs. The reason I wiped my contacts file first is because I didn't want to feel like I was bringing over my existing issues into the new build so any new logcat I send will be based solely on the new 6.1.1 stuff.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
Here are my logs so far. Still happening, but I cant tell weather it is more or less frequent. The first log. log of contact failure, is before dirty flash of 6.1.1, the rest after.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firegeek:
I've been suffering the lag for a while now I did clean flash 6.0 been a dirty dirty boy for many before. Just flashed nightly last nite. I'll do what I can to see if lag rears its ugly head.

Erik.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Well, I see a lot of errors related to "index not found" by the Skype app when Skype is trying to sync contacts. I wonder how many of you who have lag are running Skype (have your Skype account set up)? The index error seems to indicate a corrupt database, so it looks like something is corrupting the contacts database and from that point forward, the lag occurs because the error is causing an app (or multiple apps) to FC or just lock while the database is still open.

Also, what are your permissions on the /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db file?

Given that this looks like database corruption, I'd still be interested to know if anyone has the lag return after a clean install of 6.1.1 or after clearing the contacts database and reloading only the Google contacts.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
That's odd. I don't have Skype enabled... At least I never set it up.

How would I find the permission of that file? Titanium?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flewpastu:
I'm not getting any lag on WiFi only on 3g with a very weak signal and so far 4G is a myth but so far this ROM is rock solid no issues

Btw I'm on mean rom 6.1
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
It's usually easier and quicker for me to run the alogcat app. I think I might have most of the SDK installed but not sure as I didn't install it directly but as part of some tools I used during the rooting and S-OFF process.

So if I launch alogcat immediately after the lag starts, how long should I let it "play" before I hit the Save option from the menu? Is it better to let it run a bit until I see a certain message to do with the lock of the contacts file, or should I just save right away? Want to make sure that I'm capturing the right time frame for ya. (assuming the lag rears it's ugly head again, so far so good but it's only been a few hours.)

PS have never installed Skype on my device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I don't know about alogcat. It's not very good and I much prefer the adb method because alogcat doesn't give you time stamps. Having said that, as long as you wait until after the lag event (after the app finally comes up), that should be long enough. Ultimately I'd like the lag event to be near the end of the log anyway and as long as the lag has occurred and is over now, it should be safe to do the logcat.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I'm seeing a lot of unknown permission: read-only, so I still need to know your permissions on the file:

/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db

You can use ES File Explorer in root mode or Root Explorer.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
I suspect you're prob waiting for jediknight36's answer on this but just in case it's relevant, permissions on mine are 660 (-rw-rw----).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
OK, this one should be interesting. For you laggers, please try flashing the attached from recovery. It attempts to rebuild and reindex your contacts database. If there is corruption, this might fix it. Don't do any wiping or anything else: just flash this and reboot. Then see if you still have lag. If this fixes it, I can write it into the post boot script.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cheeb:
Some of my issues were:

A) loading a mms from lockscreen....opening a new mms which included a picture...so far...no lags.

B) Entering phone app from lockscreen and either receiving no response on keypad or after selecting a contact the app would just seem to freeze and result in 2-call sessions coming up from me tapping the contact more than once....so far...that hasn't been an issue..

C) Typing in an email address in the mail app or gmail resulted in not bringing up the contacts list...so far...thats working fine...

For me...some of the issues I was seeing has been working fine or with minimal lag...

Mikey, so far so good on 6.1.1. I used to experience terrible lag in messaging and the contacts widgets. No lag so far, but it always took a day or two to show up after a rom flash. I flashed last night so the first day no lag, will see how it goes on day two.

Sent from my fast as hell phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Sorry... don't want to be dense but I don't want to make assumptions either. Do the above responses mean you tried the lagfix1.zip and it is fixed after that? BTW, screen flicker has nothing to do with this fix.

Guys... not to worry on that front. I know it takes time for the approval, setting up permissions in the RD group, etc. I'm confident that all the right things are being done and also confident that you'll see the RD title under my name as soon as possible. The process just takes some time, so things will happen in due time. :) XDA has been very responsive to me via PM so I don't want anyone to think XDA is dropping the ball: they are not!

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
For me, yes. Lagfix and so far the texting is great, but I am getting screen flicker from hell unless it's full brightness.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cheeb:
Yes...I used your lagfix zip and started testing out the stuff I had causing issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
Then I don't know what it is, but it didn't start until the zip was flashed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
I assume you'd want me to hold off on flashing this zip this since my lag hasn't returned yet (since installing 6.1.1 and wiping my contacts file). But I'll pull it down to my phone anyway in case I need it.

BTW, Also, Android Tuner has a great logcat reader implementation built-in. (This is the marriage of 3C System Tuner Pro and Battery Monitor Widget Pro apps). You can filter it to only show a certain level of detail (from Verbose to Info or Debug on down) or filtered by application as well. Plus it has time stamps. :) So if the lag comes back, I'll use this for my logcat instead of the alogcat app. (I'll still look into seeing if I have the full adb stuff on my system too, though I think by the time I plug in all the cables and everything, I'll have lost a bit of time and missed something. Since I work from my laptop which sits on a rolling cart and I don't usually keep spare usb cables plugged in when I'm not using them.)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
Never mind! Twas a damp pocket. Looks like I need a new phone...

As soon as I can get to my puter, I will attach more logcats. It sure is an improvement!

So, anyone know how to ruu on a mac? or from bootloader?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
On 6.1.1 with your lag fix zip. I'll report back tomorrow and give you logcats IF I get any sms lag...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
Hey Mike!! 12+ hours and messaging/contacts lag hasn't returned (6.1.1 nightly + fresh contacts file since yesterday). Woohoo!! :victory:

Tomorrow will be a good test too as I'll be out and about most of the day and when my phone's in the car dock I pretty much ALWAYS have problems calling up my Contacts file (just the Favorites subset actually) and as others have mentioned, the wicked lag when trying to place a call. If I get through tomorrow without the lag coming back, I'd be fairly confident to say it's probably not going to! And by Tuesday, if it's still not back, well I'd say it's well and truly licked!! :p

(Yes I've sometimes gone 3-4 days before it coming back but that was generally after a fresh wipe and it would usually take me over the course of a couple days to get each of my apps relaunched and reconfigured since I try to restore as little as possible from TB (mostly just non-system app data with the exception of face unlock data which has always been fine from day 1 with a restore of it's db from TB. If it wasn't I wouldn't bother using it since face training over and over again is a huge PitA.)

Anyhoo, just wanted to give a quick heads up since I most likely won't be able to report back again till tomorrow night.

Thanks again for all you do for us Meanies and the rest of the community!! :good:

Android Tuner/System Tuner

I asked this question a few weeks ago but didn't get any suggestions; I'll try again

Anyone having issues with getting the SD cache/read-ahead settings in Android tuner or system tuner to stick? Running a 16Gb class 10 which all of my music streams from.

Nov 11 (1 day ago)

to me, system.support

Hello Jerome, sorry for late reply.

Looking back on the initial report, I’d say you have a custom ROM and it’s running multiple scripts, which I’m not sure what they do.

Have you checked the content of the /etc/init.d folder, I’m pretty there’s a lot of scripts in there,. If you want to zip the content I can examine the files in there and let you know.

Rgds,

Odd, I went from 5.8 to 6.1 and have never experienced SMS lag. I have at least 15 active SMS threads in the messaging app and keep contacts synced with Facebook, LinkedIn and my Exchange account.
