[Motorola Droid X2] liam.lah:
I have had slowdown issues on a number of devices. I don't know about time, but flashing updates to the rom frequently without wiping seems to do it. This seems to be most apparent when I'm flashing nightlies a couple of times a week, and less so when flashing stable version numbers every few weeks or months.
[Motorola Droid X2] Croda:
I can't speak to the cause, but I've also experienced this. I'm running CM9 and it was wonderfully smooth to start and lately has gotten incredibly laggy. I've gone to reducing the number of active threads (in developer settings). This works better, but doesn't persist after reboot, which is annoying.

I'm trying to remember, but I think the stock phone (pre and post 2.3.5 update) did the same thing in that it was great and just got laggier and laggier as time went on. I don't run more than a couple widgets either. Maybe it's just the phone? It's my first droid, so I have nothing to compare it to, but I can definitely confirm that you aren't the only person whose experienced this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PholkLorr:
I normally use Sammy based ROMs like Neatrom or checkrom and i usually save pictures and .zips to my external sd.

However, when i switch to AOKP/AOSP roms, i noticed a couple of problems:

1) Gallery doesnt show pictures because my pics are in external sd

2) Stock Android camera doesnt have the option to save pics to sd card

3) external sd folder itself is empty.

4) The phone and sd card is viewed as an entertainment device when plugged into my laptop, as opposed to being the normal MTP usb drives. This means the files on my external sd card do not show up.

I think all these happen because my data in the sd card is not being mounted properly. Ive tried using remountSD apk and it does mount my external sd properly, which allows me to view my external SD using ES File explorer, which solves issue 3. However, it does not solve: 1) gallery still doesnt see my pics. 2) Android camera still cannot save to sd card. 4) Phone is still detected as entertainment device.

This is one of the biggest reason for me to not use AOKP/AOSP roms.

Any help or explanation of why these things happen would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PholkLorr:
Does anyone know anything about this at all?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
What AOKP/AOSP are you using?

External SD issue

-Under ICS Aokp/aosp, your external SD card is mounted here: /mnt/emmc (use es file explorer to browse the root of your phone)

-under JB Aokp/aosp, your external SD card is mounted here: /storage/sdcard1

Gallery Issue

Visit this thread for solution

Android camera

-Android camera cannot save to SD is a known issue for AOSP camera app.

-If you are on ICS, download Camera ICS, which is the same Aosp camera app with all these functions you need eg SD card save. You can also try other alternatives.

-If you are on JB, download Camera JB+ which is the same JB camera with many more functions you are talking about. you can also try other alternatives.

Connection to Laptop

-entertainment device means your phone is connected as MTP instead of Mass storage mode (you got it wrong there)

-to connect in UMS mode instead of MTP, Go to Setting>Storage> press menu for options > Usb computer connections>select Mass storage

solved

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rayk1080:
I've seen a few apps in the Play Store (mostly just plugins for alternative SMS hosts like GoSMS) like Emoji Keyboard and Emoji Codec that I couldn't get to work. Then I attempted a method I found in the description of Emoji Keyboard's app information which involved replacing a file in system/fonts through root explorer. I know I did everything in the instructions but it didn't work for whatever reason.

I want to be able to send and receive emojis (at the very least, with someone using the same app as me) inter-Android and with iOS also if possible. Any possible app/method? I'm running CM10 8/16 build but will be updating to the 8/23 build that's coming.

And I'd prefer not to use What's App. Thanks in advance! :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lukas_s:
Open up native messaging app, hit menu and then settings. Scroll to bottom and there should be an option for "enable emojis"
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rayk1080:
It wasn't included in 8/16 CM10 but it's here now in 8/23 which is awesome BTW. Thank you. I was really looking for an app I could tell all the iPhone users and Droid users to get that would work for all of us (but not What's App). Anyway, thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lukas_s:
Emojis that I send to iPhone 4/4S users go through. 3G and below can't see them for whatever reason

Likewise, emojis that I receive from iPhone 4/4S users show up on my Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Jamieb88:
I think thats cause iphone and android made a universal emoji so that both can see it. I read an article about it a few months back when it was in the works..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] swub1:
Thanks making this post I had been using GO SMS just for emojis. My wife still has an iPhone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] yoda209:
will the emoji work with apps like instagram or FB?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rayk1080:
My experience with CM10:

the only way to access emojis is through the messaging app. They can be sent through text messages by pressing the menu button and selecting “insert emojis" provided that you have emoji support enabled in messaging settings. (From my experience, only later builds of CM10 have emoji support. That's source code though and has nothing to do with our brilliant devs).

To get emojis into Facebook you need to use a copy-paste workaround.

1) Enter stock messaging app and go to a conversation.

2) Press the menu button

3) Select insert emojis

4) Select desired emojis

5) Press back button to return to the message.

6) Copy the emojis and paste them into Facebook

Most should work, some might not. It's hit or miss. Peace sign, thumbs up, hearts and many more are on the working list.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GutterGuppy:
Just wish they would intergrate them more into other apps such as FB. That copy and paste method just takes up to much time. Olus i think they could revamp some of them as they are pretty stupid, maybe add the finger, We all know that we would like that one once in awhile. :good:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rayk1080:
Couldn't agree more lol

I more recently flashed an emoji keyboard from the BaNkS GApps thread which you enable in input settings. So I use the selector notification every time I input text. Looks like this.

Avoid Micromax touchscreen devices!!

I found an even better deal.....I got a Micromax Funbook about a month ago....Specs looked too good to be true..1.2Ghz processor,Mali mp-400,ICS,VGA front camera,512MB RAM,2160p(ok I don't believe that but plays 1080p butter smooth).All for 6000 rupees.It worked exceptionally well,no lag whatsoever,great gaming,etc.I was beginning to feel that dual cores were just a gimmick,as it was just as good as my friend's Xoom at Temple run,and ICS as a whole.Pretty well built,too.No one would have thought that I got it for so cheap.Only problem initially was the battery,and the screen wasnt too responsive at the sides.Within a week of careful use,however,when I plugged it in and tried to do something,the screen would behave weirdly,as in I press somewhere something else happens.After a while the problem became worse and worse,and finally one day when I plugged it in,the whole screen went crazy and had white ripples spreading and stuff.This is just my experience,although I've heard of lots of problems with Micromax touchscreens.On the positive side,Micromax QWERTY phones are rock solid :P (We dropped one of my other friend's Q3 from over 12 feet,and although the screen got cracked[just a small crack,nearly as good as Gorilla glass in that aspect] and the battery went flying and landed 3 feet away,the phone still turned on and worked as usual.)
