[Galaxy S II General] Soldier2000:
When my S2 is running on ICS or JB, i'm I'm totally not happy with the touch screen responsiveness. Is there a way to fix this issue? I was so frustrated that i even tried Gingerbread today, and maybe you don't believe it, but with Gingerbread the touch screen responsiveness of my Samsung S2 is fantastic!

I've made 2 movies, to visualize my touch screen responsiveness issue :)

Gingerbread VS ICS (both are stock roms):

Jelly Bean (I've tried resurrection and revolts rom, and also tried the kernels: siyah, CM10 and dorimanx:

[Galaxy S II General] Prashanthme:
Nothing related to development.. Just a general thing which most S2 users knew.. Must have been posted in General section...
[Galaxy S II General] bundi22:
It was very annoying at first after updating to ICS/JB roms and is very noticeable once you pick up an iPhone and try scrolling on that. The galaxy nexus had the same delayed scrolling, but when I used my old Galaxy S(1) with CM9 or CM10 that lag was not there and scrolling felt great!
[Galaxy S II General] jebuchanan:
I concur. Screen responsiveness is nowhere near what Gingerbread has.

I noticed this when I (recently) "upgraded" to ICS. Not much of an upgrade if you ask me. Hardware should be as responsive as previous if not better.
[Galaxy S II General] Unexist6969:
Indeed CM7 seems more butter then cm10 even with vsync
[Galaxy S II General] Soldier2000:
Has Samsung acknowledged this problem?
[Galaxy S II General] nelsonoski1972:
Here the same bro.

For me the best ROMS for GS2 made in 2011 are GB based ROMS.ICS ROMS lag like hell and contacts keep on crashing and freezing TW.

But our ICS fanboys here will not accept these facts and now they are clamoring for JB with it's own set of problems.:p:p:p
[Galaxy S II General] Prashanthme:
They ll never.. I think now they forgot ICS.. Moreover google got that point improved it lot in JB.
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
are you running gb cm 7 or stock GB?
[Galaxy S II General] Soldier2000:
In the first youtube video i'm running on stock GB and stock ICS.
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
Just tried a gb rom and yes it is a lot faster in Web browsing and stuff but now I remember why I can't use it..

I'm from Israel and I'm using Hebrew as my main language and gb doest support left to right built in
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
It's not a question of responsiveness, I think. More of a question of how scroll works. It's been discussed in many threads at many time. It's not an issue per say... They just chose another direction for scrolling. There are ICS custom kernels which "fix" scrolling. Just look for them. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] jebuchanan:
I believe it is. I have found touch responsiveness to be less with ICS than Gingerbread was. (I still have my Nandroid backup of my Gingerbread FW).

With Gingerbread, I touched the screen and response was (comparatively) instant. With ICS, I wait or re touch the screen for the response back. Keyboard seems the only thing that is responsive. (Although, a few times I even questioned it).

I truly am looking forward to a fully functional JB rom. Just for that responsiveness.

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

And yes, I am running BBS to see if there is an app causing the issue. But so far nothing g is showing up
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Funny how some of us don't seem to have issues with screen responsiveness. There's the infamous screen responsiveness delay issue, but there's been fixes for this already. I guess that's the price you pay for running full stock.
[Galaxy S II General] jaykresge:
For me, system responsiveness is better in ICS than GB. However, the web browser just scrolls differently in ICS. However, your second video is inaccurate. You claim that both phones are running Dolphin browser. The SGS2 you used is actually running Chrome. Chrome has issues on our SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] Unexist6969:
Nah 2.3.4 (Touchwiz 1.0?) Is way smooother :P
[Galaxy S II General] jaykresge:
For you, possibly. For me though, I noticed that there were less hiccups when scrolling through menus (like settings) or homescreens (Touchwiz or Go Launcher). TW's homescreen was noticeably smoother on ICS. On 2.3.4, that was the first thing I complained about (TW homescreen hiccups).
[Galaxy S II General] m4ssnet:
Yesterday my girlfriend buy an sgs2, WTF !!!

It really lag so much, scrolling, menu.... have the 4.0.4 stock inside with no official update available.

She don't want flash modded rom for warranty reason (and hard brick in some case I've read).... She can't do anything to improve the smoothness ??!!! :mad:

Very very bad !
[Galaxy S II General] Soldier2000:
Hmm, i think you're right.

If you want i can make a new movie with JB and browsing with the Dolphin browser :).
[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
hmhmhm.

if you are on cm10 based ROM (maybe previous versions also,cant tell) theres settings->advanced (takes u to specific handset options)->Touch sensitivity

I dident touch it as i dont really feel the problem but it may help some of you to try it i quess
[HTC Amaze 4G] Phasar:
The phone was bought new in May and unlocked in June because it's in another country. It came with Android preinstalled from T-Mobile.

The Wi Fi doesn't work, but that's a hardware problem and HTC won't fix it under warranty because the phone was unlocked. NOt a big deal, and not the problem I'm writing about.

Last night the battery died. Today, after charging the battery, the speaker and microphone don't work.

Anyone I call cannot hear me. There is no sound at all on the other phone. No static, Nothing! It's like putting your turned off phone to your ear.

And it is the same when they talk. I can't hear anything.

I took the battery out several times and that didn't help

Did a hard reset and that didn't help either. The phone was working fine until the battery died

does anyone know how to fix this problem?
[HTC Amaze 4G] trbryant:
Same problem

I have the same problem. I'm looking for a solution, otherwise I'll need to send it back. Did you ever find a fix? #frustrating
[HTC Amaze 4G] Redtressd11:
HTC Amaze phone only works on speaker

My HTC Amaze is almost doing the exact opposite. When I make or receive calls, I cannot hear people. They can hear me, but unless I put it on speakerphone, I am SOL. It works with bluetooth in my car just fine but it is a little aggravating to have to keep a call on speaker. Anyone else have this problem? I have done a hard reset, I called TMobile...they said they were unable to help. I have the insurance, but only for lost or damaged. As it was explained to me...TMobile cannot help me in regard to phone but...if I drop it in the toilet or run over it...the php insurance will cover it (with the 150 deductible) When I signed up for the insurance it was explained to me that it was like an extended warranty. However when I called tech support, I was informed that it was not... Help please
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] w1ll1am23:
Hello all here is the issue. My girlfriend has the HtC vivid and I have rooted it and obtained s-off with the wire trick. After I was done with this I attempted to find a good ROM for flashing there are very few. I decided on Virtuous Inquisition after installing VI I was fairly happy with the outcome no sense is the goal here. After the flash I noticed the signal bars not working like descired in almost all the non-sense HtC vivid ROMs. This seemed like no problem because the phone still technically had service right?

-well after using it for a few days my girlfriend disconvered that her text messages would fail to send sometimes actually sending them sometimes not. It would take serveral attempts to send the message and once it finally sent the recipent would sometime recieve for than one messages even though the vivid says it only sent 1. The same thing occured with phone calls she would have to try to call someone four or five times before it would go through. It also works the other way and sometime she will not get messages or calls for long periods of time.

This all occurs in VI and in [TEAM CODEFIRE][ICS]De-Sensed Rom by Wajee 1.6. I have tried using the stock kernel and the provided kernel with both of these as well. I have also used several different APNs and they all do the same thing.

I just flashed the stock kernel and ROM back on to the device and I am seeing if she has any problems. Could the wire trick have damaged the phone? I have not heard of anyone else having this problem.

What else can I try
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Monkeymannnn:
Both of the desensed ROMs have plenty of issues. Wajeeh's is probably the better bet if you wanna stick with no sense. Otherwise Google wcx illuminati and go with that. It's the best ROM for the vivid by a LONG shot.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] w1ll1am23:
Thanks

Thanks for the reply I will try it out for sure.

If anyone else has the above issues on ethier of these ROMs please let me know so I can determine if it is just me or not. also if you have a possible fix that would be great too.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeRo2o9:
i use the de-sensed rom from wajee and dont have any problems. if you wanna see your signal strength download a signal widget from the play store
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] w1ll1am23:
Thanks for the reply the phone is on stock ICS now so I might try to flash wajee again from stock. Are you using the kernel that comes with the ROM?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeRo2o9:
I always flash the faux007 kernel because i get better battery life with it. you can always try different ones to see how they run
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] w1ll1am23:
Well I think I found my problem. I unlocked the boot loader on the phone the first time I flashed a ROM but re locked it. I just noticed it was lock so I unlocked it and installed wajee 1.6 and so far so good.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kmdangi:
Try using BORKED ROM, I am using it. It is very nice rom for HTC Raider

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Okay, so I used the xfactor bootloader unlock and flashed TWRP. I got into my stock, installed SuperSU and everything was dandy. I wiped system, flashed AOKP and then flashed the AOKP boot image through the fastboot boot.img. I rebooted and no luck, I got stuck on the 'initializing swagger' page. Bummer. I then went and wiped, and then tried to flash the recent CM10, perhaps not a good idea, anyway I got onto the cm10 boot screen but that stayed that way too. So I went back and restored, after wiping system and cache, from the nandroid backup I made. When I boot into it now it shows me the splash screen, then shuts down and starts back up again. Anyway, for the life of me I can't figure out what to do, I have even more problems because I'm on a mac. I have VMware on my computer though I don't have the android-sdk on there. So what do you folks suggest I do?

Okay, your help is very much appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wdkingery:
Reading directions correctly is key.

first flashboot boot.img, THEN go into recovery and flash the rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Myrder:
Go to the android dev or general forum and look around, there are a few splash tuts. I'd look for you but I'm currently trying to look around for my problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Okay went back, flashed boot.img for cm10 and then installed cm10 and gapps, I'm stuck on the "quietly brilliant" splash screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Myrder:
Did you wipe your caches?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
When? I did before flashing boot.img. I don't think I cleared dalvik though.

Regardless, did a system reset and then flashed boot and installed cm10 and gapps and I'm once again on the htc splash screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Honestly though, I just really need to figure out how to get back to something usable... since restore from nandroid is also giving me a splash, what should I do?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Myrder:
Go into recovery and wipe all caches, then reboot. You may end up having a corruption somewhere in which case you'll need to find your device specific RUU and run it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Looks like it, I'm once again in a boot loop. Anyway to run an RUU through mac without virtualizing? Will I need drivers or anything if I do it with the virtual machine?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Myrder:
Once again... This is why I don't like anything apple... You might find a file converter that's able to convert .exe to .dmg. I haven't used or worked with VM so I wouldn't know how to work that.

Download.com

Search there and you should be able to find a converter.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
Actually I have tried to run RUU through wine in the past with no success I was able to start the .exe but it did not flash I was able to extract radios, etc though. I haven't updated Wine a while so it might be worth a try ?

Another "free" option is to vm with virtual box http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html and install Windows.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
What about extracting the zip from the RUU? if you get get that zip out, you can do all of it from fastboot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
you can but there is a signature issue if I remember and flash fails.:(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
I thought that was if you modify it? because all the RUU does is copy that zip to the phone

worth a try.. worst that can happen is it will reject the flash
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
Agreed, worth a try and I definitely confirm you can extract rom.zip, etc through wine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
I'm actually going todo this and then write up a guide how to RUU on linux/mac w/o virtualizing windows
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Flashing the Rom.zip, or running the ruu.exe will always produce the same results, they go thru the exact same process. Flashing the Rom.zip just let's you see what's happening in a little more detail..........while flashing the Rom.zip, if you open a 2nd cmd prompt and send a random fastboot command, you can then see full detail, of EXACTLY what's happening.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Okay, I used VMware and ran the RUU, I got the HTC screen but it never gave the progress bar and ended up doing absolutely nothing, I still have the same recovery and everything. So I'm trying to extract the RUU installer, with WinRAR but it's saying there's no archive, how should I do this? I'm not too familiar with the inner workings of windows.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
download htc sync on your virtual machine and do it again

or.. when you run the RUU..

go to start and type %temp% and then search for rom.zip

and drag that to your desktop

you gotta do it while the RUU is open, and before it closes
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Yeah, I have htc sync on the machine already. Anyway, i got rom.zip and i'm sending it to desktop now so i can deal with it. Then I copy it onto storage in the phone and run fastboot update? Do i have to change the name to update.zip? Don't just say yes, please, tell me exactly what to do.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
first lock the bootloader

fastboot oem lock

put the rom.zip in the same folder as fastboot.exe

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

after a while you might see

FAILED (remote: 92 supercid! please flush image again immediately)

just do fastboot flash zip rom.zip again

you may have to do that part 3 times

then you will be able to boot into your phone.

then just unlock the bootloader again by

fastboot get identifier token

and then follow the steps to unlock your bootloader from HTCDev, when they email you the .bin, put it in fastboot folder

then fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

if it doesn't unlock, go back into fastboot and type fastboot erase cache and repeat the unlock again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Excellent, I can't wait to have it all back. Just flashed for the third time and i have a progress bar on screen and the bootloader is telling my computer quite a bit of stuff. Thanks so much!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] makesaythink:
Can I use the .bin from last time? I did get identifier token but I came up with nothing.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shane87:
What exactly do you mean by "disable volume rocker while screen is locked"? Are you saying that you don't want to be able to adjust media volume while the screen is off? Or are you talking about the feature available in some roms where you can use the vloume rocker to wake the screen?

In power saver mode there are two settings for display adjustments. Under display settings there is a setting for auto adjust screen tone. One of those three settings being on probably the issue, it was for me when stuff like this would happen.

All,

I will be traveling to South America in a week. Normally, I would carry my Ipod Touch as my main music player, but since I received my S3 and a 64gb micro SD card, all my music is on my phone so no difference between the two. My question is, would you use the S3 as your main music player while on the plane, hotel, walking around etc.... My main concern is battery life, will it last a 10hr plane ride?

Obviously, I will put it on Plane Mode to conserve battery. FYI, I will also attempt to use my Verizon S3 as a world phone by using the thread found here on XDA (page11 thread 106).

Your opinions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
if you have extra batteries.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nutzzer:
I will, but not going to be heavy phone user. More like to try the Verizon S3 as a world phone with the hack found on the thread. More curious to see if it will work or not. But other than that, more as my main music player.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I kinda did when I traveled to Italy over summer (before the unlock thread existed). I had a Verizon temporary world phone when I went there so I actually used my GSIII more as a camera than anything else. I was hoping to use it for GPS but it wouldn't ever lock while away from WiFi, which bummed me out. I'd love to know what I should have done to at least get GPS working. Like everyone else says though, battery life will be something to worry about.

I had to charge my phone daily using it as my camera but I was usually sitting at about 35% by the time I got back in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Infection3d:
lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
When I traveled to Hawaii this past summer with my thunderbolt and extra batteries I opted to use my iPod for music mainly because I didn't want to drain my phone battery, but I also didn't want to risk damaging the phone. If I were you I'd take the iPod with, it's small enough that it wouldn't be a bother.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xbiker321:
If I had the option I'd choose the ipod since it's cheaper and who cares if the screen gets scratched. On the note of battery life, as long as its rooted with a custom rom, airplane mode, undervolted and underclocked since all you're doing is music... it should easily last 24hr+ on a charge.
[HTC One V] caius112:
Hey guys,

Just a quick question. Seeing all the great ROM development going on here (basically, we have 99% functional CM10, and full Sense 4.1 ported as well), I was just wondering: why is there no development going on on porting Sense 4.5 to our CM10 base? Is it only because it's only on higher resolution devices and thus the screen size doesn't match? Or is there some greater difference here?

A semi-related question: would it be possible to port Sense 4.1 to a Jelly Bean base?

Thanks for your answers in advance.
