Here are a few tipps:

- Total recall note, well working call recorder

- Pro HDR Camera, the name says it all

- Paper Camera, turns photos into a comic and some other nice effects

- Autoruns, stopps autostart programs

- Notification Toggle, lets you place shortcuts in the notification area

- Delayed Lockscreen, makes the screen lock kick in after a chosen time span

- Intelliscreen, stopps your screen from turning off when certain apps are running (or delay the turning off)

- Profile Scheduler, profile management

- Smart Keyboard

I forgot:

- tegrak, lets you overclock/ undervolt even if the kernek does not support it natively

- system tuner pro, nice tuning app

- winamp

- ultimate rotate, let's you lock the screen in the desired position, even rotates touchwiz, app dependant settings

I will post again if I remember some more.

[Xperia Arc General] zezoassiri:
Hi all

i used a lot of ICS roms here but it seemed to be bad in gameing and not fast as the GB ..

Is this the problem of ICS ????

when I use GB i play a heavy games with no problem , but in ICS it is laggy and i need to overclock the cpu to play .. even though still laggy ..

also in the performance , i see the GB is much better and smooth than ICS ..

I am now back to GB but I missed the ICS ..

It will be better if there is a hyberd rom that is contain GB and ICS togather ..

so in your opinion : what is the problem ??

is it from ICS ?? or the arc is weak to get good ICS ???
[Xperia Arc General] theq86:
Neither the arc, nor the arc s is too weak.

Let's take my HTC Wildfire S as instance:

600 MHz SC CPU

512 MB RAM (400 useable, btw this is more than on arc (s))

CM9 runs perfectly smoothly. Also the new xperia lineup has 800 MHz phones which have the new timescape gui and ICS.

I think the problem are insufficient drivers or just a *****y programming with memleaks.

The amount of free RAM is also a reason.
[Xperia Arc General] jtdc:
everyone has their own definition of what is smooth. as for me, i define it as:

1. Fling of homescreens and applications on stock launcher is solid iPhone-like even with widgets on a non-live wallpaper. The smoothness that would not let you think of Jelly Bean at all.

2. Basic applications critical for phone use like Contacts, Messaging, Browser should also be as smooth as number 1 above.

3. Temple Run Brave while in the gameplay, no lost frames and instant response on swipes. Reason is not for gaming, but means the phone will behave smoothly on heavy processing.

Since everyone has different opinion on smoothness, nobody can tell that their phone is smoothest.

What I can say though is that on any ICS ROM I have tried, nothing meets my 3 criteria above. Hence I stick with Gingerbread.

I am critical and allergic to laggy interface / phone. Destroys the experience, makes you insecure of other phones.
[Xperia Arc General] ohwarumbloss:
I installed "Jellybread" by omenHTX today and it's great Gingerbread Stuff! You should give it a shot :)

After so many bad experiences with ICS I am really glad someone focused on GB again :)

Greetings!
[Xperia Arc General] zezoassiri:
I was thinking about it and I think the problem is from Sony itself

maybe they give us a garbage update to feel that our phone is outdated to Chang it ..
[Xperia Arc General] szymon247:
UI Smoothness is more than acceptable on Arconium ICS but the phone is simply just too slow in the performance department, so it lags a lot - on both ICS and GB. Stock GB was just a small tad faster than Arconium ICS and significantly faster than stock ICS.

The biggest difference was the animation smoothness though, because the phone lacks performance under GB too - the processor runs at 100% for a few seconds until it launches some heavier apps, and with ICS even basic apps like youtube became heavy.
[Xperia Arc General] zezoassiri:
so i think the problem is from ics
[HTC Incredible S] Cyb0rgz:
Hi all,

I Just need to gain root access to my HTC incredible s. Came across the following while googling,

Gingerbreak [apk] – It wont support Android 2.3.5 which is current version in my mobile.

http://www.unlockroot.com/ [Windows Application]

I just need to gain Root access alone to allow some application to access those, Yes, simply need root access. MY Question is

if I rooted my mobile,

1. Will I get Official OTA update ? [I’m currently in STOCK 2.3.5/Sense 3.0]

2. Will my device in S-ON.

Is there any tool or APK or exe which is good worthier to gain root access?

Appreciate your suggestions and guidance on the same.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
With stock 2.3.5/Sense 3.0, you have HBOOT version 2.0x which can be unlocked and allow you to flash a custom recovery. After you have flashed the custom recovery, you could then flash SuperSU or su-3.1.3.zip to gain root.

In this mode you would receive the ICS OTA notification and it would let you download it, but it will not install successfully until you remove the custom recovery and replace it with the stock recovery and then relock your bootloader.

The other option is to use the Downgrade Tool posted on this site to gain true S-OFF and then flash custom, rooted ROMs. There are plenty of custom ICS ROMs in the Development section, including mike1986's ARHD which was built from the official HTC ICS RUU.

I suggest you do your own research in this forum. All of the questions you have have already been answered and explained.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
You need s off or an unlocked boot loader for permanent root

I think ginger break your either doesn't work, or if it works, root will be lost after a reboot

Best to follow one of the easy guides by our members like nonverbose s or fallensuisydals

Both are straight forward

Edit: dammit tpbklake you're too quick :)

Sent from my Nexus 7
[HTC Incredible S] Cyb0rgz:
Thanks for the info.. :) one more question, is it possible to retain with stock boot loader even after gaining root access? if so, will i get official ICS OTA and can install the same?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Is the question 'can I have root and receive OTA at the same time'?

No, when you s-off you change your bootloader to revolutionary version

When you HTCdev unlock you unlock your bootloader so its different

Short answer: no

You won't need the official OTA, theres custom roms based off it like ARHD and tpbklake's rooted stock rom which I tried

[HTC Sensation] BehradGH:
Hi I wanna buy Sensation XE

want to know that All The ROMS for sensation working on S XE too??

for example MIUI , CyanogenMod and ... ??

And Main Difference between two phone is just CPU and AMOLED Screen??
[HTC Sensation] InfinityFTW:
The XE ia basiccaly the same phone, but with cpu clock speed at 1.5 ghz, so all ROMS work with XE

Sent from a awesome Sensation with TouchCream 2.0
[HTC Sensation] Deleted member 4219121:
Yes, the CPU, battery, backcase and beats are the only differences. Ehm, what AMOLED screen?

Yes, MIUI, CM9, etc. will work for XE.

If you buy regular Sensation and then get an Anker battery, overclock your CPU (completely safe, because HTC underclocked the regular Sensation), buy a backcase and flash a ROM which contains beats (all Sense ROMs have them), you will get a XE with a little bit bigger battery, since XE battery are 1730mAh and Ankers are 1700-1900mAh. (some people report better battery life, while some report the same/worse)

Hope I helped
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
It looks like every time my phone syncs with each of my accounts, it is bringing all the contacts again as new contacts rather than syncing them with the existing ones. This is very annoying because every time I go to my contacts application the same contact is repeated several times.

I tried recreating the accounts (deleting all the contacts and syncing them again) but no matter what I do, within a few minutes I start seeing the multiple copies of all the contacts again...

Does anyone know how to stop the madness?

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
go into your gmail on a pc and merge all duplicate contacts, that should do it, had that issue a long time ago.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
The problem is not duplicate contacts. Say I have one contact on my gmail account named John Doe. There is only one John Doe in my gmail acocunt, however on my phone, with time, there will be several John Does, and while it creates multiple copies of John Doe on the phone, there will only be one John Doe on my gmail account.

Makes better sense now?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildoggs:
Uncheck sync contacts. If you leave it checked every time it syncs up it creates duplicates. After you uncheck sync contacts go to you contacts and delete all the dulpicates then export your contacts to you SD card. Its frustrating it kept happening to me till I used this method. I no longer use Google to sync my contacts for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
but syncing the contacts is part of the whole point of having a smartphone. if i add a contact on the phone, i want it to sycn to my other web services, be it google or my company's exchange server or my hotmail account. and if i add a contact on any of those accounts, i want it on my phone the next time i use it.

syncing works perfectly on other platforms and it was working well on the Note until ICS, at least for me.

and don't get me started on not being able to merge more than 5 contacts on the phone, if you have gmail, hotmail, exchange, facebook, linked in, google+, tango, and more (i do) and if a contact is on all of those services then you can only merge 5 and the rest appear as a separate contact on the address book... #$^%$#^... i know that windows phone merges all the contacts from all the services for you...

so, no. stopping sync should not be the solution, although i recognize that it would stop creating duplicates on my phone, it would defeat the purpose of having a smart phone, at least for me...

thanks for your suggestion, though. i appreciate it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] esincho:
Sounds like have your contacts saved not just thru Google but on the phone itself. Also u can filter to show just Google contacts. I only sync with Google so I never had this but seen it with ppl
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
No contacts on the phone. Also each of my accounts have its own contacts. I don't want to put my work contacts in my google account, because those live in active directory and are synchronized with my outlook on my PC, and on the company's citric servers through exchange...

I'm beginning to think that I'm switching to windows phone 8 when it comes out. This never happened to me on WP7, or on the old windows mobile...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
In Settings>Accounts do you possibly have two accounts that have the same contacts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
yes i do, but that's what combining contacts is supposed to be for. too bad touchwiz only lets you combine five of them...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Well just out of curiosity what would happen if you signed out of the non-google account and rebooted? Would the duplicate contacts be gone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
merging the duplicates should solve the problem, also make sure you dont have facebook, sim card, phone and google all syncing. if you have numbers on all those accounts it will cause duplicates
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
did that, didn't work

you can only merge 5 contacts. and the problem is that the contacts start duplicating themselves...

i had to disable contacts from all my accounts and sync only the google contacts, and i'm really upset because i should be able to use the contacts from all my services, which used to work fine before ICS and works fine on windows phone 8
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ILuvRice:
I've had almost the exact issue with my contacts and I only sync my google contacts. Drove me crazy, everytime I flashed an ics rom it did it but I think I finally fixed it. I went into contact settings and checked "show contacts with numbers only" and all the other contacts went away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
i don't only store numbers in my contacts, i also store addresses and emails, so i want to see them all...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lauchon:
The same over here...

It happens the same to me, I was thinking that may be an issue asosiated to flashing rom with out wipe... I'm going to try to do a full wipe and reinstall all over again, but it's just anoying because it only repeat contacts on the phone and no in my google or exchange accounts. And believe me it's not a merging problem... it's something else...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (international version) with ICS 4.0.4

View attachment 1230295
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gadgetdan:
Galaxy S3 too

I also have this problem on my Samsung Galaxy S3. I had it once where it duplicated contacts once, but I deleted them all and started over and my contacts all linked up nicely with the contacts I have in Skype and WhatsApp. However, since last week it is misbehaving. I have deleted the contacts on my phone and let them sync again, but some time later they duplicate. How it manages to link to Skype and WhatsApp contacts is also varies. Sometimes just a couple link automatically - and not the same name each time. Right now I have 7 contacts for each name and 7 entries in the calendar for each appointment. I sync contacts to Skype, WhatsApp and Microsoft Exchange only, nothing to Facebook, Gmail etc. If I delete 1 entry (out of 7) on the phone then my 1 entry in Outlook goes.

Sorry I don't have a solution to offer yet, but I will keep trying. My feeling is that is has something to do with Kies but I have not figured out what yet (and probably Microsoft Exchange Server, but that is unavailable for most of us to test...). Things seemed to get worse after installing the latest Android update (4.04) that was pushed out last week.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] manikam:
+1 same issue with iinternational S3. How to resolve?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
I only used Kies to install the ICS update. All my accounts are setup as exchange accounts. I have one warning, though. One of the things I tried was I went to each account and told it not to sync the contacts, then I went to the contacts app and deleted all the contacts and then I reenabled sync on my accounts to redownload the contacts and the result was that all of the contacts from one of my exchange accounts were gone. I was able to prevent further disaster because first I had backed up my contacts on my PC, and because when I reenabled sync, the phone warned me that I was deleting too many contacts and let me cancel the deletion (I had to restart the phone because it kept warning me and stopping the deletion wouldn't work)...

I had to end up deleting all my accounts and recreating them, Importing all the contacts from my other accounts to my gmail account and only syncing my contacts with my gmail, Which sucks, but I guess there is no other way for now...

I'm strongly thinking about going to windows phone 8 when it comes out just because of this issue...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lauchon:
Today, I have 7 copies of each of my contacts... and I have almost 700 contacts, so I can't try anything that include a one by one solution. My exchange account doesn't seem to duplicate (or more) my contacts on the server. Also the battery was almost gone by noon... there must be something wrong on the room that Keeps syncing duplicating contacts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lauchon:
I don't use kies, I flashed my roms with mobile Odin

So they can't give you all nmandatory internal confidental stuff...

Otherwise hundrets of handsets with Qualcomm Chipset affected... from MANY manufacturers...

And btw... Qualcomm + AMSS is very very old... long tradition... "minor" changes...

So if you have full description for 1 Qualcomm Chip... you can attack also other Chips with Qualcomm...

So thinking it might be a bug, I wiped again, flashed 8.1 back on and behold same problem. The odd thing is, I can take photos fine, etc, boat load of storage, I just cant open gallery. Installed a 3rd party app called quickpics, that opens fine, but spams me with "cannot open database" messages.
