[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailbhatia:
I flashed my HTC desire (Stock HBOOT) with ICS (Sandvoid) 0.15.

Installed smoothly. Then I ran a2sd install and answered y/y/y (wanted to see how far I can take it

Immediate observation was that when I run some app (facebook/youtube and even some system apps) it used to hand throw up a screen that app is not responding and option to WAIT / KILL etc

If I wait usually the app would come back but it was nagging too much.

My question is if I get a class 6+ SD card would this issue disappear?

By the way, it was beautiful to see ICS on my desire and I want to go there again.

For now shifted to Oxygen 2.3.2 with HBOOT oxygen r2. wondering if it also has an option to move data 2 ext inbuilt? tried a2sd install did not work (I know its inbuilt etc etc)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRavenGod:
I had the same issue and it seems to have stopped when I did a fresh install and did NOT move the Dalvik-cache to SD.

Also, try another CPU guvernor (performance maybe).

Hope this helps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailbhatia:
Thanks TheRavenGod.

I had tried the "performance" governer (though with cache and data both moved)

I have ordered for a class 6 card will give it another try. I am app hungry so needs loads of space to install them.

Will keep the results posted on this thread.

Just installed ICS keyboard on Oxygen 2.3.2, Enjoying it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saber.srod:
You should try another a2sd script. I find that croniccorey's d2ext mod works well and is fast and stable. He also has some other a2sd scripts here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1716124

Be advised that the d2ext script does not work on every rom. d2ext is speedy because doesnt move the dalvik cache
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maerte:
I had trouble too when I did a2sd install and answered y/y/y. Try answering y/n/y, that solved it for me...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailbhatia:
Yes but that would not give me all the space that I need :)

My Class 6 card should arrive today, will try once more.

For now enjoying the OxygenR2 HBOOT with lot of space in data partition. Still about 170 MB left after my usual applications installed.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maerte:
Thats the same dilemma I had ;-) Bought a Class 10 card and still no change. I think there is a bug in that A2SD script. Luckily for me the internal space is enoght for the apps datas...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmaq:
when you run a2sd script, choose Y/N/Y. ie.. move only dalvik to sd card, dont move app data to sd card. This was working fine with me always.

hi, what is the difference between sense 4A and sense 3.6?

Do you prefer a rom with sense 4A towards a rom with sense 3.6?
[HTC Desire S] vulpine:
hell lot of difference!!

sense 4a is actually a lite version of sense 4 full. Doesn't have all those fancy animations.

I have experienced sense 4 on htc one V and I think sense 3.5 is way better and fluid or is it just me!!

I still think sense 3.5/3.6 is more beautiful on our device as it runs more smooth and has beautiful animations.
[HTC Desire S] ReznovHuang:
I think 4A is better,as it has more useful function...

It all depends on you.Different people have different feelings:D
[HTC Desire S] tuttifrutas:
tried them both, i personally like the 3.6 version. some stuff on 4 seemed a litle out of place for my liking.
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
There are two main things that I hate about Sense 3.6:

1) I can't change the font size, and

2) I can't edit the tabs in the app drawer, or any other apps.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
Hi guys.

I came to realise that some S3 also suffer from black crush like the Note. So I went to try playing the Glee video , the screen went very bad and almost the whole screen is pixelated from 0.36-0.38 (lightings). It's not really black crush but rather bluish white blocks occur on lightings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cay2dnuhcs

When there's transitions from white to gray, gray to black and vice versa is bad, there are also pixelated blocks there. (last attachment)

Here are some example photos,

*These are on full brightness

The bluish white blocks are too ugly to see. I've compared with the iPhone 4S and the iPhone seems to handle the lightings very well in full brightness(no obvious blocks)

Brightness does the trick too, when I lower the brightness to under 40%, the blocks are not as visible but once I go higher than that, ugly scenes show up again.

supercurio tweeted that there's already a solution for this but I must root my phone to get it fixed. I'm pretty sure that it's not a hardware issue because there's an app that temporarily fix this issue but it may harm my screen as the app itself warned me. The app is "Filter My Screen".

I hope there's a firmware update that will solve this problem so that I don't need to root my phone just to get this fixed.

Helps are appreciated.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
Could someone explain about the bluish blocks? It's really ugly compared to the iPhone 4S.

For the gray image, you can see the transition from light gray to dark gray, the blocks are visible too.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] circuit89:
It could possibly be a low quality version of the video. How is the screen when you perform other tasks? When using the phone to watch youtube check if HQ is enabled and if watching over 3G or HSPA network make sure that 'High Quality over mobile' is enabled.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
I've tried all normal quality, HQ and HD quality, the pixelated blocks are still there, even on a 6000 x 4000 image, once there's transition from white to gray, gray to black or vice versa, ugly blocks will appear.

I've tested the gamma calibration with the "21-0 image", I am able to see a gradual fade from 21 to 7 only, 0-7 is pure black.

Help please?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
Could be a defect with your phone. You could also try flashing a newer firmware and see if that fixes the problem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
I'm on LF1 now. It's already the newest firmware here in Malaysia if I'm not wrong?

Well, I'm able to get a significant 'fix' by using the "Filter your screen" app, but it's not perfect and it may harm my screen if I use it in a long time frame. So I guess it's not a hardware issue?

Is there any good solution for this?

Helps are appreciated.

Isn't LFB the same as LF1? LFB is for UK region and LF1 is for Asia region, no?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Ok now that I see the images, I get what you mean.

The first is definitively a bad-quality encoding issue with your movie, not the phone. Note that the S3 has a very high resolution and screen size

which will make these artifacts far more obvious than other devices you may have watched it on.

Also make sure you didn't transfer the movie via MTP since it tends to convert it. And conversion is bad for image quality.

As for the other picture; I'm guessing low-quality image again.

But it seems you got a screen protector on your device; some of them (especially the anti-reflective ones) cause a significant drop in image quality.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
I personally don't think that it's an encoding issue because I saw other S3 users in the forum that are able to watch this YouTube video without the ugly bluish blocks.

As for the picture, it's 6000x4000 resolution. Yes I'm having a screen protector, but a clear one. One thing is I'm able to fix this issue by using the app "Filter my Screen", but I can't use it for a long time frame as it will harm my screen according to the warning note from the app.

Is firmware LFB newer than LF1? Can someone confirm this?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swagtabulous:
I've tried looking at the 6000x4000 JPEG image on my laptop screen, the transition is perfect, no blocks like how my S3 presents it.

[HTC One X] ASavva:
Hey guys,

Just trying to get a few opinions on what you think is the best keyboard for the HTC One X. I just purchased Swift 3 keyboard and I think it's definitely worth it.

Much better than the original keyboard for sure. I really like the samsung galaxy nexus stock android keyboard that it comes with.

By the way jelly bean 4.1.1 is awesome!
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
SwiftKey is superb, they isn't a better keyboard out there.
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
Swiftkey 3 hands down :good::highfive:
[HTC One X] ASavva:
Better than the stock android keyboard that is on the galaxy nexus though? With jelly bean it's pretty hard to beat I think.

Must say that after using SwiftKey 3 keyboard for only half an hour it seems like it is probably the best there is.

The predictive text is actually quite amazing if you ask me!

A.I. type keyboard. Brilliant! Best predictive text I've seen. A one touch £ if set to UK english, top row that can be hidden with a swipe for numbers and symbols, a drag handle to change the height at will, cut/copy/paste/select on long press of C and numerous themes. I can't fault it!

I like Swiftkey, and it can be tuned to work as you like it, but even having paid for Swiftkey, I can't stop using the stock Android keyboard. It just works so well. I type fast enough that I just need decent auto correct and not so much predictive text. The Android keyboard fits the bill, and seems the most responsive when it comes to typing very fast.

WOW just one vote for Swype ? :confused:

Swift key is good, but you cant use it effectively with just one hand on a large phone line One X. Swype IMO has really revolutionized one handed text input. It takes some getting used to, perhaps why not many are using it (not being available on the Play market could also be another reason I guess) . But once you know all the tricks I don’t think any "tap to type" keyboards can compete with the convenience and speed of Swype.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] GalaxySN00B:0:
Is it just me or after a few hours of use does TAJB's Jellybean rom become incredible slow and sluggish? I know its still in early development but its only an incremental update from ICS which seems to be stable (for the most part) but sometimes its just goes crazy on JellyBean despite the Project Butter enahncement. Im starting to think that these new versions of Android are startin to push the boundaries for our tired old Galaxy S1's :S
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrIwik:
The hardware of the SGS1 is old and outdated its just something we have to come to terms with. After using other phones with official ICS I understand why the SGS hasn't been supported, so I'm guessing its much the same with JB..

[Galaxy S I9000 General] upichie:
It's the launcher, most likely. I ran into that problem as well.

I'm on iall5tar's GNex ROM 4.1.1 Port and it's smoother than ICS, which was already fairly impressive.

Our i9000's are old, but each software upgrade is just that—an upgrade. JB is better than ICS, and ICS was better than GB. We didn't get the official update because Samsung thought their Touchwiz skinned ICS wouldn't run on our hardware. In reality, it was likely because they didn't want to spend money updating a device they no longer sold. Not because our phones couldn't actually run it.

My phone has no been faster than it is now, with JB. Blame the ROM, not the OS or the hardware.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sirt:
After coming from slim ics 4.2 I also noticed slowdowns almost everywhere such as app opening, entering settings etc. On the other hand I felt the same with early and not so early ics roms like icssgs, and always went to gb roms after day or two because of slowdowns, lack of toggles etc.

Then I tried slim ics 3.x and never looked back. Same will probably happen with jb, first builds are ummature but when devs look deeper into sources and find differences and optimization for sgs, the phone will be beast:-)

I just hope there will be other option for handling the limited space in internal flash memory than removing datadata altogether, as jb seems to improve touch and animation smoothness there is little Google can do to improve I/O performance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] XYunknown:
JB is not the end!

Hey Guys

I am using JB at the Moment, too (TAJB v6). I tested every JB ROM for our SGS from start, and in my opinion, the GNex ports were the fastest and also very stable, but unfortunately, the people want to move forward to CM10! Anyway, JB is definetly not too much for the SGS! Everything feels fast and smooth, exept of the randomly occuring super-launcher-lags. If this happens, just kill the Launcher Task or reboot. I think JB is not the last update for our SGS!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaphead20:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] troyan1988:
this slowness is because v6 is based on pawitp's CM10 build which has datadata deleted and used instead of it slower data/data.
