[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahoedan:
I just went through this. And maybe this will help the next person searching for a solution.

I froze touch wiz in Titanium and could not boot. So I went to Google Play on my desktpop and logged in. Then installed "Smart Launcher". I had no idea if it was installing or not but on Google Play on my desktop it said "installed" so i did a battery pull and restarted into Smart Launcher. Then rebooted again to get the prompt which launcher Iwanted to use and I chose "touch wiz" and "don't ask me again"

[Motorola Atrix 2] NatsuIgneel:
Ive noticed that the ram usage has almost double from GB to ICS (almost the same apps running in both versions).will this cause the mobil to slowdown .
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Albeit GB software was/is very stable and has great performance, ICS is more intensive; for example, in terms of resource usage. As smartphones become more capable, our own applications, as well as the Google Mobile Services (GMS) applications, are becoming more advanced, which means that they require more CPU power, run more network activities and use more RAM, and full hardware acceleration also results in a need to load additional graphic libraries for certain apps, which makes them use even more RAM.

Another effect of the hardware acceleration is that it can make the battery drain faster in some cases. An example of this is video playback, where the hardware acceleration requires every video frame to be run through the GPU, thus making the system use more power than it would have without HW acceleration.

In regards to your 'available' RAM, about a third is used for functions that require a dedicated memory allotment to operate fast enough. For example, this is the case for certain multimedia functions. The remaining space, is reserved for the Android OS. Within the Android OS, functions like the activity manager and Home screen app are running.

When running low on RAM, typically with less than approximately 40MB left, the activity manager will start to close processes according to priority. At first, idle background activities are killed. The last thing to be closed down is the foreground activity.

Processes that are closed will obviously have to be restarted when the user enters the app again, which takes time and slows the system down. For example, when running a heavy game that uses all available RAM, the activity manager will be forced to kill all processes running in the background. This might include vital functions like the dialer and even the Home screen application. When you exit your game, there is a risk that the phone is perceived as slow, since the Home screen app will have to be restarted, just like every other activity you access afterwards.

Another interesting thing is that many apps use slightly more RAM in ICS. For example, the web browser is quite intensive, and uses 20-30MB more in ICS compared to GB. All in all, there are a lot of changes that together result in greater RAM requirements, and resource usage in ICS is heavier on the system compared to GB. However, there should be no cause for concern that this is in fact now the case...
[Motorola Atrix 2] NatsuIgneel:
Response from the ace! Its my day .thanks for the explanation sir
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
You're very welcome, hope that clears things up a bit for you. Also, battery life on ICS is all relative, meaning that nobody's definition of "normal" usage is static or comparable. ICS battery life is great, along with it's ability to cope with RAM usgae, etc. Experiment with it, try different settings, explore your posibilities to make the phone work for you, not the other way around. I'd be happy to help you with any further concerns or questions...
[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
This clears one of my queries about RAM supposed to be 1GB (which should have realized being allocated as dedicated system RAM just as storage of 4GB reserved by system for storage memory).

You mentioned "Full hardware acceleration", question is, is this enabled by default on ICS? cause under "developer options" there is a option for "Force GPU rendering - 2D hardware acceleration" which is disabled by default & has an option to be selected by the user.

Also I have seen under running programs certain apps like "Astrid", "Hotspot VPN" appear (individually as a program) simultaneously in two rows as 1 process & 1 service but with varying RAM footprints, thoughts??
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The objective here is let the CPU to do general OS related processing while GPU is doing specific graphic related processing. If you are an Android developer you know that Software development Kit (SDK) is letting you specify whether your app should use GPU if available.

Force GPU rendering is always using GPU to render application graphics regardless of above mention developer options. Even if developers disable GPU rendering for a specific app, still it will use it if you have 'enabled Force GPU rendering' and freed up CPU to do other important work.

As far as the duplicate (but dissimilar) RAM "footprints", I'm not sure why there would be more than one, when typically the two (services and processes) are shown on the same entry. I will see what I can find out about this.

Side note: I received an email from Motorola saying that they have shipped my replacement of my Atrix 2, after bricking from leak #2 testing, so I will be more of a service to this community once I get back the device. Sorry for the side step, just excited...
[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
Noted the response on the first query.

See attached screenshot for the dual (dissimilar) RAM footprints (in this case it's just the "VPN" app.

:good: on the side note
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
The other thing that has not been noted in here, is that the kernel takes around 200 mb of ram right away on boot. That is why with almost nothing running you only see 800+ mb of "available" ram.
[Motorola Atrix 2] NHS2008:
Hi I am on PA atm. I had a horrid experience last night. I was playing Asphalt 7, in middle of an intense race, and then I received a call. but it stayed in game so I paused and then it got frozen of a sort to the tune that I missed the call. this is where I miss the good ol call receive/end keys..

So is there anyway to make sure that the calling function (Dialer?) doesn't get killed at all??

To be good at it, strong and fast Reflexes are required.

Have a try, Enjoy, and Feel free to comment and suggest.

Thanking you.

Oh, Sorry I tried to paste google play link here, but being a new user to xda-developers I can't post links in my threads, till I post atleast 10 threads. So I am going to share it manually.

Go to :

!) play.google.com

2) In the search Enter "Akick".

3) Google Play will display Akick, so it gonna be the one whose developer name is "ASGHAR SHAH".

Thanks Again.

Hello

I bought the P880 about two weeks ago.

Unfortunately I notice a WiFi issue ; I don't know if this is affecting only my phone or if all p880 have this issue.

At low WiFi signal the download speed is very low compared with other LG phones.

Strange is that the upload speed is always better in the above conditions.

This issue is present only at low WiFi signal on good signal there is no problem.

I don't know if is a HW problem or a SW problem.

Maybe the WiFi chip is not as sensitive as the chips from previous LG phones.

Also is possible to be a SW issue (maybe is something wrong in the WiFi RF calibration)

Or maybe my phone has a fault.

Below is link from a video where I compared WiFi speeds between LGE730/LGP990black/LGP940/LGP880/LGP990white connected to the same network in poor signal conditions.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afEKaHW7-pQ

If any of the users of the p880 notice this symptom please let me know.

Thank you
[LG Optimus 4X HD] siugab:
My phone works quite ok under poor Wi-Fi signal coverage, so I am pretty sure that ur phone has some problems, which ROM are u using?try to flash the ROM again, if you still having this issue, i would recommend you to send ur phone back to LG for repairing.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dontwan:
Go to wifi settings, en press the menu button click advanced and uncheck the box wich says: Avoid poor connections.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] d0ct0ru:
I already tried that option.

Unfortunately no luck
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tedsign:
I have the same issue. At the same place my previous Huawei Ideos X5 got stable connection although poor, but this Optimus 4x gets on and off connection.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] d0ct0ru:
This poor wifi connectivity is very annoying.

Unfortunately I do not have the possibility to exchange the phone because I don't have waranty.

Now after some good weeks spend with the P880 I also noticed the latency over wifi is high.

For example the ping on other phone was 12ms and on the P880 is always greater then 180ms.

I hope the optimus G will be released soon in Europe and hopefully then I will get rid of this wifi problem
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
I'm now with a ping of almost 1900ms, but I'm in a shopping centre almost without signal :) At home generally is around 12ms.
[Galaxy Note II General] 9090def:
First article for me and plz mind my english

First of all i bought Gn2 every thing about it is great

The main problem for me is the screen dimensions its narrrow to use it in horizantal position (Landscape view) there is less screen rows in the screen which is not comfortable (for me) .

I believe the main idea of a phablet is to be a phone and feel like tablet but the width of this screen bother me while reading and i love reading in my GN1 some ppl mention its goofy look coz but it practical.

Gn2 is out of phablet zone it look like normal phone

Cheers

Note: all what i say is personal thoughts
[Galaxy Note II General] gee2012:
Everybody is entitled to his/hers opinion mate :)

I think Sammy changed the dimensions and looks to attract more potential buyers. They are creating a new line that started with the S3 and will be used on all coming new devices. I personaly like it as improves usability, the Note 1 (wich i also had) felt a lot bigger in my hands han the Note 2 does.

So for me overall i like the new design :good:
[Galaxy Note II General] omersak:
This was a problem for me as well, especially when using the browser. I set it to fullscreen with quick controls so that it uses the entire screen estate to display the webpage. It's pretty much fine for me, now.

The 16:9 ratio is magnificent for videos, though
[Galaxy Note II General] RavenY2K3:
I had the same feelings towards this, but after using the phone, with it's speed and extra functions, it's now just a minor niggle, as the pros out weigh the cons.
[Galaxy Note II General] 9090def:
I feel much relief that somebody felt the same way i did i thought am an old school :)

Nevertheless GN1 gone to my wife in case i need it i'll give her my GN2 let her live like queen (only this time ;) )
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
I agree, the note 1 was a great device but its width made it look weird sometimes and was not as pocketable as the note 2. I personally prefer the new design and form factor much better than the note 1, I don't feel weird when I take it out in public :)
[Galaxy Note II General] Goodm7sn:
i agree 100% with u guys...
[Galaxy Note II General] zas311:
I feel the same. I like 16:10 ratio better. Thw new narrower screen makes me hesitant to upgrade.

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note II General] kdskamal:
I gave my Note 1 to ny sister and when I compare it to my Note 2, the reduced width definitely makes the phone feel better in hands.
[Galaxy Note II General] oclock:
I have my Note 2 (grey) since 5 days and really love it. I agree that the extra width made the Note 1 somehow special. Thats why we called it a phablet. The Note 2 is "just" a big smartphone. But I never used the Note 1 in landscape except for watching videos, so I do not really miss the missing 80 pixels. On the other hand, small letters are much better readable on the Note 2, so I could just zoom out a little more and see as much on the Note 2 as I could on the Note 1.

The pros of the Note 2 overweigh the cons and I hope that Samsung does not switch to pentile again for the Note 3.

[Galaxy Note II General] DMax99:
I had exact same feeling as you when u first got my note 2....I thought the dimension made the screen looked smaller than the note 1...but I'm used to it now...plus, the brightness and colour on note 2 is much better than note 1 make up for the different dimension...oh..also...note 2s new dimension is so much easier to hold hands

[Galaxy Note II General] hagba:
The feeling of a Compromise is always there when first Switching from the original to the Note II.The reason that We went to the the Note and not to another device in the first place was because of its sheer size.

But the advantages of the Note II over the old Note are so overwhelming that marginaly narrower profile turns out to be an advantage in itself.

[Galaxy Note II General] Etienne38:
Mmmh, talking about screen ratio makes me thinking about some game compatibility.

Indeed, I have been highly frustrated that some games (I bought with my GS1) are not compatible with the galaxy note 1.

I was thinking it was because of the screen size, but I am thinking now that the screen ratio is more probably the cause !

Would it be possible that some of you check if those games are compatible with your GN2 ?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngmic:
I like how in the stock dialer, when you select a contact, you swipe left to SMS or swipe right to call, quite slick. However, this doesnt seem to work for the favorites (as long as I use grid view i/o list view). When I tap on a favorite, it brings up the contact profile (w/ all the phone numbers, email addresses etc) instead of dialing by default; very inconvenient, esp when you're in a rush to call from the street. Am I missing a setting?

I've tried using exDialer instead; almost perfect except it doesn't clear missed call notifications (you still need to open the stock dialer to clear that) and doesn't show your call log as clearly (just one entry/contact, instead of showing all recent inbound/outbound/missed calls as distinct records). Is there any way around both of these issues?

Hello

I have a Sony Xperia S LT26i

I used this manual to root my Sony:

Copy the CyanogenMod 9.1 package and the GApps package into your phone’s internal SD card.

Extract fastboot-win32.zip into the C:\ drive (root directory) of your computer.

Copy recovery-nozomi.img into the same folder where fastboot.exe has been extracted.

Open the CyanogenMod 9.1 ZIP file and extract the boot.img file into the same location as fastboot.exe.

Turn off your phone.

Reboot the phone into Fastboot Mode by holding down the Volume Up key as you connect the phone to your PC via USB cable.

On your computer, open a command prompt window as Administrator (i.e., click Start > All Programs > Accessories and right-click on Command Prompt, then select Run as Administrator from the context menu).

At the command prompt, enter the following command to change into the directory where the Fastboot files were extracted to:

cd c:\Fastboot

Check whether Fastboot is able to communicate with your phone by entering the command below. If you see your phone’s serial number, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, check whether your phone’s drivers are properly installed on your PC.

fastboot devices

Flash ClockworkMod Recovery to your phone by entering the following command:

fastboot flash boot recovery-nozomi.img

If successful, you see a “finished/OKAY” message on the command prompt. If not, try this command:

fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot recovery-nozomi.img

Reboot your phone into Recovery Mode by entering the following at the command prompt:

fastboot reboot

Your phone ought to boot into Recovery Mode. While in Recovery Mode, use the Volume keys for scrolling and the Camera button for selecting.

On the recovery menu, select Install ZIP from SD card > Choose ZIP from SD card and select the CyanogenMod 9.1 package file. Confirm that you want to install the package.

Install the GApps package in the same manner as in step 13.

Return to the main recovery menu.

Select Wipe data/factory reset and confirm the action on the next screen.

Select Wipe cache partition and confirm the action on the next screen.

Select Advanced > Wipe Dalvik cache and confirm the action on the next screen.

Power off your phone.

Reboot the phone back to Fastboot Mode as in step 6.

On the command prompt on your computer, enter this command to flash the kernel to your phone:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

You will see “finished/OKAY” on the command prompt once the kernel is successfully flashed.

Reboot your phone into Normal Mode by enter the command fastboot reboot at the command prompt.

The first time your phone boots into the new ROM, startup can take around 5 to 7 minutes.

I forgot to do step one i cannot copy the

CyanogenMod 9.1 package and the GApps package into my phone’s internal SD card what should i do, thanks in advance just got stuck at cwm :crying:

I'm now by number 14 and i don't can select a Install Zip

Android Debug Bridge is not working because Clockworkmod is installed.

Fastboot works.

What should I do now?
