I think the earlier builds that don't have these apps locked in memory were a bit faster and multitasking were actually possible...
[Defy Android Development] G00fY2:
About locking Phone/SMS to memory:

There is no chance to change this by editing or replacing any files on the phone, because Quarx directly changed framework at ActivityManagerService, which gets compiled. But for me the code looks similar to an earlier (abandoned) gerrit commit, which also implemented the settings to disable it:

Change Ife8d810d: allow phone app to be locked in memory, as suggested in issue 1624 (1/2)

Change I76d6e0db: allow phone app to be locked in memory, as suggested in issue 1624 (2/2)

For me there is no need to have phone app in memory. Had no problems with incoming calls or stuff like that in Epsylons latest build.

So please Quarx, could you at least add the possiblity to disable this option?! :)

Here is the patched services.jar for the 22/08 Defy+ MB526 build

I´ve tried it and can confirm that my phone is 100% Supercharged now :D
[Defy Android Development] @non4:
Small bug, on all defy quarx builds sometimes after answering a call the ringtone will restart and play for half a second rather than just stopping, this can be heard by the caller. Can you add apex as a flashable option? Updates keep replacing apex with trebuchet, which I uninstall, reinstall apex to system with titanium and find to my pleasure that my widgets are gone. No big deal but zips for alternative launchers would be nice, apex runs better as a system app.
[Defy Android Development] EtaCarinae:
I confirm that bug.

I updated to the last nightly with rom updater and apex still here like the widgets...

own choice what stays in memory

what about expanding this functionality?

What about manually choosing the apps that stay in memory? Haven't there been a similar developer-option in older CM-kangs?

of course this depends on what stays in memory. if you want to multitask [any other app] with phone/sms/launcher it of course makes sense to keep them in memory - ideally with a checkbox to enable/disable without reboot and the possibility to kill&restart them.

maybe it'd turn out as a feature that will make you trying them ^^

A bug tracking thread would be great, even better would be a built in tracker in the ROM :D
[Defy Android Development] svenhernot:
i don't believe this would work for me:

proximity-fail suddenly appeared in 22/08 ROM, before it was perfect

tried the screwdriver-tric,

did a new start from scratch (original sbf, root from there, clean install),

and it's still not working ...

It makes my phone useless for daily use if I can't give voicemail input

The work-around with the power button doesn't solve this :(

I don't know if many of you have noticed it but phone calls are increadibly draining battery.

I have 40 min of calls and that is supposed to have drained 30% of battery. It's really high!! Does anyone have any idea on how to improve this?

And Quarx's can you do something about it?!

I know everyone has a bug for other usages of our beloved Defy, but let's face it, it's a phone!! We need it for calls and messages. It's its main usage!! If the phone can't handle calls then we have a problem.

So please, let's improve this, if possible.
[Defy Android Development] vanloque:
Indeed, i've been for the 1st time in the HWA settings, and everything is CHECKED in there :D

There's no "uncheck all" so i'm gonna do it manually.

edit : I can't find the HWA settings anymore, where the hell is it hidden ? :D

edit2 : found it, i'm really dumb :D
[Defy Android Development] ppero196:
Sorry, but you guys are boring with: "phone and messaging is slow. Phones original purpose is calling and messaging."

For the love of God its a smartphone! If you want calls and messages I will give you my RAZR V3!

Also please remove phone and SMS from being locked in RAM, it makes gaming and multitasking difficult as I don't always need SMS or phone app!

Also if you want lover battery usage, disable 3G or all internet connections!

1708 build problem

Seems 1708 build still has problems: my Defy+ has done at least twice uncontrolled reboot during regular phone calls. With browser on and surfing Internet the system slows down and almost stops functioning. My personal opinion, it just something wrong with memory management. 0208 build was more stable and made no force reboot even once. As I read about 2208 build, it still is not much better... Going back to my 0208 backup.
[Defy Android Development] mefxes:
Hello.

I installed the 2208 nightly yesterday over the last one. I was getting a lot of bugs like phone ringing but no menu to answer, notifications bar missing and a constant system message popping up all the time, so I decided to try a fresh install.

Everything looks very good except the red lens battery fix failed to install (error message), so when any internet connection is on, my Defy runs VERY hot and the battery drains very fast, like 80% to 60% in 20 minutes.

I'll try to find another fiz. Except for that, this new nightly is fantastic. Smoother than before, everything (except tethering) seems to be working.

Bilistas is correct.

Phone should be a phone in the first place. Calls and SMS should be treated on highest priority as default. All other stuff may be changed or managed later on manually or IAW to predefined patterns. It is nothing about boring anyone. So I agree, Quarx .please do something about this... Thanks!

How's Google Maps working for you? I have full Gapps installed. How much RAM does it eat?

Maps takes 65-70 mb of RAM which is high because i haven't even started the app once since powering my phone.

I think it's about Location service. Will look into it.

My RAM has increased from 50-80-130 to 110-160 so it's a big plus still... struggling to keep RAM down. What do you use to stop apps/processes from starting?

Story of my life. My first smartphone> Nokia N81 had 40 MB RAM free and it struggled sometimes, use was not that high though. The second> HTC Diamond had 194 MB< which i thought was great> figuring i will end up with 50% free but they didn't say they reserved 64 for Graphics living me with 40... Now the Defy struggles. I am thinking the 2GB LG's will solve my problem :)).

Hello guys ,

One question , how can i remove duplicates from my contact storage ?

Apparently each time i flashed i Google backed up my contacts and each re flash it kind of recopied the SIM contacts ... :confused:

I don't know if on the CM9 the phone book app had that feature ( i passed from Miui to CM10 )

Maybe Quarks will implement it ?

[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
it seems you have unusual way to do contact management.

just simply put your contact on GMail.

not on your phone.

everytime you flash / wipe phone, the contact always restored.

Couple questions..

That script will be called by init only, but be aware that /proc/pid/oom_adj value is not static. You assign -17 and when you get back to the home screen, it will go back to 0 (or other value, as configured). And I *think* the same applies to the the "nice" value (would have to check the doco). Btw what is "renice -19" doing? Changing the process priority to -19 (which is the second highest priority ever) - why would you do that for a launcher? (plus, I would specifically say that this will change the oom_adj and priority for Trebucher.. in case anyone is using a different launcher.. LOL)

Anyway - if you wanted to keep the OOM thingie not killing the launcher, you need to continuously assign these values to the process, perhaps creating a service and starting it by init.

Am I wrong?
