Many thanks for the advice.

Job done. Phone seems quicker, and have got between 90 and 115 MB free in running 'processes'.

Thanks

If you're using your phone only as a phone, sms, camera, email and browsing, then the balanced settings in the script is all you really need.

In fact, you may not really need it at all.

Custom kernel + Odex + Basic use of phone + Script = Overkill.

If you're doing it just for play's sake, then good. But if you really only care about performance at a basic level, you might want rethink your settings. You don't need that much free RAM.
[XPERIA X8 General] impster:
Thanks for the advice - I just want to see how I can make the phone as efficient as possible - I'll try the balanced setting - 8,12,26,28,30,32 to see if I can notice/feel a diference.

ANKERS :)

Hi there, I am very very happy with my Anker battery! It makes quite a difference! I was fed up with my stock battery draining so fast. I got Anker to try out and its been wonderful! When you buy it buy it off amazon because eBay sometimes sells counterfeit . They put a sticker over the actual battery making it look like a long lasting battery when its really not. Just to be safe, is shop Amazon . You will be amazed At the difference the Anker will make! Hope this helps you out ! Best wishes!

Hi everyone,

since I upgraded to ICS (first stock and now cyanogenmod 9 rc2), I have an issue, when i play a game, the game menu shows up itself, like I'd press the menu button, and it appens very, very often. It's very annoying, and it's almost impossible to play.

It happens with Gameloft games (asphalt, block breaker), Cut the rope, Angry Birds Space and many more.

Anyone having this problem?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goku16:
okay, i received a n7 with a transfomer rom preinstalled on it 3 weeks ago, i called up customer service after a day trying and they said "do everything to make it work" and they will send me a email with instruction returning it.

headache: i managed to put a stock rom back on it, activated and everything, but i find out it's not as smooth as other devices (well, playing games for the first week is fine, than keep getting lagg after time), but luckily, i took a picture when i first start up the device (with transformer wallpaper,system info..)

currently the n7 is on stock rom with bootloader unlock and rooted, so if i return with this stock rom, are they will pass the examine of faulty and not "charge" me for another device? or i just go to the transformer section and flash their stock rom :))

thanks for any advice

i dont think anyone have this case before -.-
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangxi:
That's weird.... was this straight from Google or did you buy elsewhere?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanthesolo:
There have been several instances where people have gotten ics (not TF, all asus products have the tree background) test roms on their devices, and experienced the same lag you are experiencing. It appears they got early pre-production devices, where the software (and perhaps hardware) has not been finalized yet, which may be what is causing the lag. I believe they will take it back if you change your complaint to "extreme lag", and explain what happened to it.

Good luck :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goku16:
Yes, straight from play store.

Yeah, i just afraid thr bootloader is unlocked, rooted, but this is all done before the device get to me, and because its up n working again, im just afraid they wont pass the examine

I've also had problems sending texts, they will come back as unable to send randomly, even with these new apns it seems like im having this issue.

Yeah cant send any texts, or download mms even with the correct APN you posted.

is there like an AT&T modem I can flash or something?

Please help this phone is practically useless otherwise.

As far as modems go there is no ATT modem but there are other modems available in the dev section that you can flash through CWM. I get the best results with KD1 but it's all area dependent.

Can you download MMS and stuff? What ROM are you on? I'm using CM9, but maybe I should switch.

Hold off on that. If you've already started it's all good. So I'm a curios sort of guy and not having the ability to send MMS(even though I never do) on LTE(PTA) sort of pissed me off. So after a bit of searching I found this:

Go to that and set the EXACT settings that are there. I can now send MMS on LTE. Thank the dude who figured it out.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] edgex:
I have those APN settings and it wont stick, cant even send an SMS let alone download/send MMS. but i can make a phone call...

I tried deleting all my APNs and re-adding it. doesnt help. I'm stuck :/
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
What do you mean it won't stick? Like it reverts? or they just don't work? If they are reverting delete the original first. Then make the new one.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] edgex:
Every time I go back into APN it just isnt selected, nothing is.

The sending SMS may be carrier related, I just tried moving my sim into an AT&T blackberry and it wont let me send texts either. Very Very odd. Been on the phone with AT&T for the last 20 minutes.

Hello,

I updated my Xperia Mini Pro to ICS 4.0.4 last week. But there are lot of problems here. Also buggy and laggy.

So, how can I downgrade my mobile to original stock rom? without loosing the warranty. Because I bought this last month and I don't want it to lose warranty.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Sudanminipro:
Just visit a Sony service centre... Itseems they downgrade the Rom to gb if u want.

Or you can flash ftf firmware file using flashtool. I don't think that voids warranty:good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] evilbarcode:
Correct they wont know the difference between flashtool downgrade and normal gb from before. So for warranty you will fine.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Sparksys:
use flash tool .. it wont void warrent , because you will flash OFFICAL ROM .. so :D wont void warrenty

If you do want to keep your warranty, you need to go to a service center. If not it's more than easy on Android.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] perrofranco:
thanks man
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jakuchu:
you can search for official rom for GB at the development area

be sure you install flash tool too

it wont loose your warranty
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
If I were you I would look here and go to XX.Downloads. At Number 2 there is xperia mini pro.

Download the 4.0.2.A.0.42 rom (for SK17i) and install flashtool, then click on the flash ,select flashmode and select the ftf from 4.0.2.A.0.42.

But install the drivers from the drivers folder of flashtool before.

Then click flash and power off your phone. Press and hold volume down and put usb cable in and connect to pc. The green light will shine.

Then flashtool will do everything automaticly and will flash the rom. (Btw all your data will be wiped!)

If you are on .42 then you can root with flashtool (just enable debugging and unknown sources on phone) and click the open padlock to root. Then connect to your wlan and search for updates on phone. Then update via ota to .62 firmware!

Thats the best way and it's the official firmware and it's like you never have been on ics before!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pramodblog:
Thank you so much dude!:D I will do that. But i need to know that firmware is "world" one or is that a firmware made for a mobile company like AT&t or something else? Because I don't need to see a company logo when my phone is starting.:o

Also if I do this, am I able to update my OS to newer firmwares if SONY release it? Like ICS or JB?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ManthanRB:
No they are GENERIC firmware so its all SONY made.:D

You can update your phone still:good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Yes, you can download from here and if your bootloader is locked you can still upgrade over the air (wlan) to newer versions of your os!

Yes you can install upgrades from sony, to ics or jb (if it's out).

I think it's polish rom or something like this, but you can choose your language and it's like the generic world, only the crap by sony (like things that are preinstalled, like mcaffee or whatsapp, playstore now, etc ) is different (whatsapp is on some sony roms preinstalled, but you can also download in playstore, it was just an example!!)

So just flash it like I told you and then you are on stock sony rom, you can root it (cause .42 you can root easily: just enable usb-debugging and unknown sources on your phone with 4.0.2.A.0.42 and click the open padlock next to the flash). Then you can update (if your bootloader is locked, otherwise your phone will brick) to .62 firmware, the latest gingerbread firmware by sony. ( I don't know excatly in which countries, but in Germany there is a .69 firmware, with no changes on the software, I think, compared to .62)

Greets! :)

[Nexus S General] Piaband:
I have been loading most of the patchwork JB Roms that have been popping up here. I like some things about it, like Google Now, but I cant seem to understand "project butter." I cannot tell any real difference in smooth-ness. It still seems pretty laggy on my NS4G. I am hoping this is because either I have been using a newer device as my daily driver, or just that these Roms are hacked from other releases.

Does anyone else feel this way? What are your experiences with devices like the nexus 7 that were designed with JellyBean? smoother? same?
[Nexus S General] Killasmoke:
Nope I can see the difference its faster & smoother than ICS open app draw opens fast in ICS it took a little longer jellybean is the best OS update from Google so far 2 big thumbs up & I'm getting the same or a little better battery life than I was on ICS
[Nexus S General] ljordan2:
I can definitely see a huge difference it terms of smoothness. You should probably delete some apps you don't need or do a factory wipe.
[Nexus S General] wmdunn:
I mirror your experience, however am still hopeful that when Sprint releases the actual files, things will be better. I haven't experienced JB on any of the newer devices, but the reports are good. Life is all about expectations ... guess we should be thankful that we're even receiving the updates.
[Nexus S General] Piaband:
FYI---it is VERY hard to understand you without any punctuation.
[Nexus S General] snowmanwithahat:
You still should keep in mind that we're on a 2 year old device... yeah yeah the original Nexus S came out in Dec 2010... not quite 2 years, but it's based off of tech that debuted in the original Galaxy S in the summer of that year. It's great hardware, but it's expected that we'll have a tough time dealing with newer OS' ... quite frankly I've considered going back to a stripped down CM7 just because of the smoothness compared to ICS (and JB) ... we're just running into serious RAM limitations on this device.
[Nexus S General] shawayne21:
Try different kernels as well with the rom.

I definitely see a difference,

[Nexus S General] lekhwani:
I am on jelly bean. I want to ask too why browsing in chrome is laggy? Opening apps and switching between apps is smooth though, but I dont feel that only switching and opening apps constitute the project butter.

I just don't like the fact that it keeps the phone awake over night. You ask me jellybean trying to do too much in the background. Last night I turned off 3g.

[Nexus S General] irishrally:
JB gave new life to my NS, definitely the smoothest it has ever been, and I don't feel the need to OC. As I do with all phones/roms, all transitions and animations are turned off, including the third one added with JB. Also using Nova launcher, but am going to try Apex again now that they updated it with JB base.

And the biggest thing I noticed is how quickly the recents come up now, it's instant. I honestly didn't think that would be possible on the NS.
[Nexus S General] madd0g:
Pick up the Galaxy Nexus and you'll see the difference much clearer. NS is just plain old.

I approach smartphones the way with computers. When it begins to slow down. It's time to do a full system reformat. For phones it is system wipe, clean cache and install clean ROM.

BTW have since flashed in CMREX Beta9. All around smiles.

[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
I dont know if my memory is not serving me right or what but installing apps wasnt that slow in GB.

Remember we also got slower USB mass storage in ICS than GB and it was never fixed. So maybe this is one area google didnt optimize the nexus S well.

NEVER unroot in order to take an OTA.

Also, get full S-OFF while you still can.

In order to upgrade now that you are rooted, you flash a custom ROM. Thats it. Don't take the OTA, don't unroot.
