I just donno if verizon will make another ota for ics or release radio updates to fix some issues.. All I know is since my phone is like this I can't take any updates haha.

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crabapples:
And how, pray tell, are you controlling whether or not you get updated? My understanding is a stock ROM will automatically accept OTA updates without prompt. sounds like a brick waiting to happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] imablackhat:
Stock roms have always prompted me in the past to update. Is it true they no longer prompt and auto install? Idk I really doubt that.

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bleelas:
If you have a custom recovery, an ota will fail :)

And another vote for Beans!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] imablackhat:
Stock rom will not force ota without me being able to decline though. Right?

That's my main concern...

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] abdullahaftab:
I am using the stock ROM 2.3.6 on my galaxy gio and I have no problems with it. So if I have to update my phone I would not be leaving my STABLE stock GB to a less STABLE GB. But Updating to an ICS or JB would be good. Most of the Roms Of ICS or JB I have seen are beta(in development) and Buggy with lot of things not working. Is there any Stable,Smooth and Fast ICS or JB Rom on the forum that is not Buggy and works everything on it.

Thanks.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
jb isnt stable yet...

use cm9 rc1, all others are based on it...

Before you do something you regret, you should go to the correct forum: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281

This post is currently in the i9100 forum, a device that doesn't even work on Sprint's network.

Edit to add: also, due to the nature of how Sprint's network works, using the phone on a different network is complicated at best. In any case, you won't find the answers you seek here. Go to the Epic 4g Touch forum I linked.

So I decided to risk it and do this. I used 1500 dry/wet sandpaper. This is fool proof with his high grit the paper is. With that said it takes like 3 hours and blistered fingers to complete but I'm glad I did it. Phone looks new again.

Tape off the front and trim with razor using between the bezel and glass as a guideline, and remove battery cover, you don't have to take off the back, just remove the cover: View attachment 1292610

Next just get started. I found that placing the sandpaper on my couches arm rest, and just moving the phone itself worked waaaay faster: View attachment 1292617

[Verizon Droid Charge] petrivka:
Hi all,

I've been struggling for the past few months with terrible performance issues on my Droid Charge. Things like redrawing the home screen and lag between switching programs I can live with, but when it takes several minutes to pull up the dialer to make a phone call or to answer a text message, my phone kind of stops being useful as a phone.

I started off on stock when I got the phone last year, then I rooted it a few months later. Everything was great until June. Gradually, my phone had become less responsive (taking forever to make calls, view and send texts). That plus something weird was eating >2GB data/month, and I could only identify it as "Android OS/others" via Onavo. I decided to go clean and try Tweaked 2.2w/PBJ. Things were pretty good for a couple of weeks until the major lag started coming back. I stepped back and uninstalled many apps, hoping to find one that was the main culprit, but my phone continues to act like it's trying to calculate a billion values of pi or something.

I tried following the steps from the rootzwiki "5 Steps to Keep Your Phone Snappy/Lagfree" (not allowed to link yet :p), which helped somewhat, but it has not eliminated the problem. I often find myself resetting my phone to make phone calls. SwiftKey often doesn't load correctly and requires me to enter and exit applications frequently to get it to allow me to type. I had to wait nearly 2 minutes to get my home screen to display until I removed Holo Launcher and went back to TouchWiz.

Sorry for the essay--I'd be happy to provide additional details if needed. What can I do to a) figure out what's wrong with my phone and b) fix it?

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
could any number of issues - ranging from a rogue app to the ROM not sticking correctly. when you installed Tweaked, did you do it via CWM or ODIN?

also, did you enable the build.prop tweaks to help with redraws and making calls?

otherwise, I would suggest to try wiping cache and dalvik (sometimes that cleans it up a bit as well rebooting the phone once every few days) to help clear out some of the clutter.

do you have any "force close" messages (such as SyncMLSvc)?
[Verizon Droid Charge] petrivka:
Thanks for the quick reply.

I installed Tweaked through ODIN. I haven't heard about the build.prop tweaks though. Is there a resource you can point me to or a quick process to enabling them? I thought that a lot of these tweaks were "cooked" into the Tweaked ROM.

I've got App Cache Cleaner dejunking me every 4 hours, and I try and hit the davlik every day...I still have issues. :(

I do have the SyncMLSvc force close on boot. I figured it was a known bug in Tweaked and that it'd be addressed in a later revision. Is it a symptom of something more ominous?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
i don't use App cache cleaner, and thus do not have any issues. also, if you have TiBu, you can uninstall that syncmlsvc. see if that does the trick.

regarding the build.prop tweak, remove the # from ro.home_app_adj=1

[Verizon Droid Charge] Reilly1812:
Do you have facebook installed? That P.O.S. kills my phone everytime. I install it from time to time just to see if they are coming close to fixing it. Needless to say it gets uninstalled in under 10 minutes.

I know everybody will jump all over me on this but why not try stock rooted FP5 for a couple of days. It will give you a baseline to compare other roms and app impact with. If your phone still acts up it would seem to be pointing to a hardware error IMHO.

What can it hurt?

[Verizon Droid Charge] p2kmafia:
Most importantly out of everything is to always check out your md5's and make sure they match. Also try going back to stock with the pit file too for a full fresh install. But I think the problem is the md5 sums unless you download apps off the internet

Edit: also remember to mount system when flashing roms
[Verizon Droid Charge] petrivka:
So, an update: I thought it was SwiftKey that was killing my phone, because I was doing better after I removed it. It was crappified even then, even after removing Facebook. I bit the bullet yesterday and went back to stock, updated all the way to FP5. I kept Facebook off (I've mostly moved over to G+ anyways). Everything is great. I put SwiftKey back on, and everything is still great.

I hate to say it, but even though the loss of customization in Tweaked is disappointing, I'm more satisfied with the phone in general with the stock ROM. My battery even lasts more than 3 hours too.

If it ain't broke...
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
my phone usually has that affect after flashing a new ROM. basically it's the wiping of data and cache/dalvik that helps cleans out the problems.
[Verizon Droid Charge] petrivka:
Maybe...but I've been wiping the cache/davlik fairly often. I had uninstalled most my apps...maybe some weird bug was still manifesting itself. I don't think my phone has been this responsive even after first going to Tweaked. :-/
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Well as long as your happy that's all that really matters. To be fair - there is nothing in Tweaked that should degrade performance at all compared to what is normally seen in stock. The one difference I could see is that Tweaked is deodexed - and many swear the odexed approach is faster/snappier/whatever-adjective-you-want-to-say-that-means-better than the deodexed one. Hopefully things stay functioning well.
[Verizon Droid Charge] petrivka:
I hear ya. I figure I'll give stock a go for a while, at least until Tweaked comes out of beta. I'm still counting down the days until I can upgrade to something with ICS. Or maybe even a Lumia 920... ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
It's out of beta - check it out

[Verizon Droid Charge] CalPolyRock:
I tried forever to get PBJ to play nice. RFS & ext4. Gemini App Manager autostart tweaks. MinFree tweaks. All the TweakTool init.d tweaks. The SQL index tweaks. overclocking. Autokiller, other memory apps, JuiceDefender, other build.prop tweaks, etc. I tried it all...

I'm not sure if it was my hardware version or what, but I just could not get it to work well. It always seemed like it ran out of memory and couldn't automatically manage the apps in an overloaded situation. If i manually ran some of the SQL scripts, and killed running apps, it would be ok, but not for long. I had problems losing text messages because I think the text message handler got killed or didn't run in time. I've tried GoSMS and the stock SMS. I ended up relying on Ghostly SMS to help catch the texts I lost.

Once I went back to stock FP1, most of my problems went away. It's been much more stable. So, since then, it's been stock kernel (obviously on RFS). I've been on FP5 with various versions of Tweaked 3 beta/RC and now I'm no the final. All good.

So, as much promise PBJ has or had (who knows what the FP1/FP5 hybrid will turn out like), stock kernel with Tweak 3 is the way to go for me!
