[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Unfortunately, I'm finding the very same thing. It seems to improve significantly after settling in but still not as smooth as the supplied kernel. But the ROM I'm running is based off of CM9 as well. Battery life is also noticably less already too.

MUUUCH improved over the last version though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
hows battery life on the newest version?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Now battery life seems to be a bigger improvement than the lag issue was but it still seems it could be improved on. Not that I'm anyone to be critical of a developer....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
The lag prevented me from running it long enough to acknowledge any battery improvements/concerns.

S-On support

Any chance of getting S-On support in Public Beta testing ver004 release?

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Battery is still excellent. Lag has improved a bit. Thanks again bro lol. Looking forward to the next release.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edwardng:
wondering...

badass should be set as default... #suggestion

and it seemed that the battery indicator is not/more accurate/consistent after reboot... eg from less percentage of battery to more battery? Anyone?

btw looking forward the coming release :)...

Can you not just extract the boot img and push it manually?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
no its not in boot.img format or else it wouldn't be universal of all roms.....does someone want to save me some time and extract there boot.img running this kernel on a ICS or JB rom? that would be great
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
How long would you recommend I run it on the ROMs before I snag it...or does it matter?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
shouldn't matter
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
GREAT! Then this shouldn't take too long at all. Hang loose.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Sorry for the delay.

This first one is from Virtuous Inquisition....the second one is from WildChildIcE (last nightly).

I pulled these directly out of fresh nandroids.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
CM9 please, not sure if these will work with it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
They're both AOSP. I believe that's the prerequisite. WildChildIce uses the CM9 source code anyway.;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
Thanks, tried it already but went back to A5 kernel, as this one is too laggy for me. For example, Dead Trigger occasionally lags on extra high extended effects unlike with A5 and CM9.1 stock kernels.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Maybe I just don't understand but I was uploading these for XMC to take a look at to make a comparative analysis of. I believe for him to see why all aspects of the kernel weren't kicking in like he expected.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bukethead32:
Running this kernel with ROM-4.0.4 WildchildIcE-v0.9b Nightlies since yesterday morning. Battery life is good and some lag but not enough to make me want to change. Phone is faster and smother than when i was on CM9. One thing I noticed YOU HAVE TO LET THE PHONE SETTLE AFTER YOU FLASH THIS FOR ATLEAST 15 MIN than reboot and let it settle for another 10 mins (I think this is key). I will post an update on sunday.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] PJcastaldo:
:rolleyes: not to be rude, but there's nothing going on after a boot up that's going to take any more than a minute or 2... and non of it is kernel related ..

Ahh.. OK. That makes sense.. thanks for tthe clarification.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Coug76:
Google and common knowledge states that the initial boot for a new Android install that the phone be left alone for a period of time. The manuals I have read say this is to provide for better performance. The community explains this as the dalvik cache and other caches building info for basic critical functions.

If you start installing angry birds while the chache is being built means that the device has to interrupt that and potentially disrupt an optimal dalvik construct leading to lag.

Do you know better? If so please share.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edwardng:
IDK what im talking about

dont u think the waiting time is too long?

i think this is kernel and OS related issue because...

based on my noob logic...

why would a nexus S a single core with 512mb ram can run more responsive (faster?) than our phone (users do not need to wait for eg 3-5 minutes after every boot)

and theoratically our phone is much more powerful (true for stock 2.3) because we have dual core processing units and 768mb and adreno 220

but when we flashed cm9 and this kernel it become so laggy... simply because it is considered as 'non-native' OS

which is not stable yet(not well-configured/ or bug(s) exist in either OS/ Kernel/ driver/ whatever)

for now, by letting the OS/kernel to settle down for few minutes after every initial boot might be a temp solution...

Update: opss... reboot and wait for another 1 or 2 minutes before using it... the kernel seemed kicking in after these steps =X

please correct me if im wrong

p/s: I noticed it was quite smooth for a few seconds #soRandom
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Coug76:
We were not talking about simple restarts and boots. We were talking about fresh flashes and initial new phone boots. There is a significant difference between the initial boot from a new device or fresh flash (or deleting dalvik and cache) and subsequent boots. I give my fresh flash boots (including kernel flashes with cache and dalvik wipes) a solid 15-20min before I do anything...

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
This is a procedure I also follow.

It is a good way to be sure you then gain a valid representation of whatever you're flashing/installing to then come back with valued/potent feedback for the devs & fellow users.

(Ultimately the procedure eliminates the possibility where the re-building of your cache(s) are not effecting the user experience especially upon initial boot post flash/install from recovery.)

It's gooooood :thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
The reason behind this logic is because stock ROMs are mostly odexed while custom ROMs are deodexed. Odex ROMs have a special file on /system/app/ which is mainly like the dalvik cache. Having this file means that android OS won't bother recreating a full dalvik cache on /data partition anymore leading it to initially boot faster.

The 2nd reason is probably the optimization of the app. You can't compare a Sense ROM with an AOSP ROM because they have different system apps. Google tend to develop very light ROMs which is also the same case with cyanogenmod so most users prefer them than ROMs like sense which focuses more on the look & feel over performance.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edwardng:
hmm..

the booting time of odexed vs deodexed is only true for the first ever boot until dalvik-cache is wiped again

btw, i thought light rom = speedy rom -.- then they shouldn't make it so light LOL

Update: The more u reboot (and wait for 2 mintues), the more responsive the OS is? Anyone? *may be it has something to do with dalvik-cache" Im not too sure :/ #guessing

I just noticed something:

Under Settings>About Phone @ Kernel version, it says 3.0.39-WildKernel-BETA-TEST002

I've flashed ver003 multiple times (about three times) and it still said that under Kernel version. Was just wondering if anyone else had the same thing, or if I'm simply flashing this thing wrong again.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] aawillma:
Ver003 boot.img

Well considering in the changelog ver002 has kernel 3.0.40 and ver003 has 3.0.39, I would say you have ver003.

Perhaps he labeled it that because it is the 2nd time he compiled ver003?

Also, I used kernel kitchen to create a boot.img for ver003 if any S-ON people want it. It flashes fine, Wifi works, and the version appears to be correct. I used the ramdisk from CM9.1 although I don't think that matters. (I know nothing about kernels so YMMV).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
Anyone tried this with scverhagens builds? As far as I can tell its less laggy. Not completely gone but much much less

I signed out of a Google Account after adding another one, and it kept all my paid apps etc. Is there some downfall to this, or is this an easy way to share my apps with my family? Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmoore:
I have 4 Google accounts on mine :) I generally only use 1 for purchasing apps but occasionally accidentally use a different one. You don't 'lose' apps by changing account.

Once you've downloaded an app, it is possible to take the APK and install it on another device. Some apps phone home though and may call you out on this approach!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
All apps you get from the play store are linked to the account and devices you were signed into when you got them. Many paid apps check for the linked account when they run out update to prevent you sharing them.

If you have the same account on multiple devices you can share, I do between my phone and my tablet, but my wife for example has her own accounts and own paid apps.

I don't want someone else with my Gmail account on their device. Mine is setup with 2 factor authentication anyway which requires a code which is sent via SMS to me to compete for extra security.

If you use your pc and log into the play store on the web you can see what apps are associated with that account and which devices they were loaded on.

(Edit: I noticed that you can't view the picture or the post within the xda app. Sorry about that.)

So.. I'm hoping someone who is familiar with the hardware in these phones stumbles upon this, maybe Adam Outler? :)

I've had problems with my external speaker. I went through all the fixes until I finally found this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15648897&postcount=19

This was the only permanent one for me. After I did that, it was working great for a few months. I like to use my phone to play music through the external speaker, and it worked like a charm. Then I noticed the problem starting to come back, so I figured that through use that the connection needed to be lifted again..

>>>For those that are using the xda app, you can view the picture at this site http://i55.tinypic.com/iqwl6s.jpg

I lifted too high on this connection, and basically broke it in half.

I have both parts of it, and I'm wondering if any of you guys may be able to brainstorm a way to salvage this. At the moment I'm thinking maybe solder? (I grabbed electrical tape, but I don't think that's going to cut it lol) I haven't soldered before though, but I'm pretty sure my brother has all of the soldering tools.

Thanks for your time guys.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwcjr91:
Kinda crazy..

It's working with electrical tape. We'll see how long that lasts.

I just put a tiny piece in between the two parts to give it the space I was originally after, and then an additional piece over the top to hold it in. The speaker assembly sits over it and gives it more pressure, so that helps I think.

However, I'm still very interested to see what you guys think. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwcjr91:
Update/ bump:

It's cut out once, but otherwise it seems to be working. I don't know what type of metal is used in that connection, or if it's something that can be soldered or not.

When the portrait is clicked a quickcontact bar should pop up with shortcuts to call, send SMS or edit the contact but instead a pop out the following message: 'QuickContact component cannot be found in your system'. The same happens with GO Contacts widget.

Hey does anyone know where to get or what size the 3.5mm (Length wise) headset jack is? It seems to be longer than the standard 3.5mm Headset jack. Is this on all Chinese branded phones? Any info is appreciated.

Thanks
[Android General] jaw2floor:
Heres a picture I took.

The white headphone cable came with the phone, and is slightly longer and so fits in the phone properly. The black headphone cable is standard 3.5mm and does not fit in the phone properly.

It would be great if anyone else had any info on this, or maybe some headphones with longer 3.5mm, or an adapter?

I think it would be possible to make a DIY adapter out of the headphones they give you but that would be quite inconvenient
[Android General] brotherman38:
Yeah this is a design flaw, I think once they manufactured the phones and found out the 3.5mm problem they put a cheap pair of 3.5mm headphones with a longer plug that would fit, and shipped it with the phone. At first I thought my jack was broken, than I found the design problem. I would have preferred a modified adapter that would allow standard 3.5mm headphones, since they went ahead and shipped it anyway!

This is the difference between some Chinese design/manufactures, vs USA, Japan, German. The attention to detail. This would have not made it out the door with this problem. But then again it would cost 3 times as much also!
