Guys JB lags on the few devices I've ran it on. All HTC so go figure. Doubleshot, speedy and vision all run it worse than I had hoped for. To be completely honest I think that coding is being rushed out so they can move on and keep up with Google
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Yeah I really don't think it is gonna get much better until we get 4.2 working right... I do have one more idea but it is a long shot.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
What you got in mind? Anything I could help with just let me know
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Well I actually had a couple ideas, one was to try odexing the ROM. But like I said they are all longshots.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Tommytomatoe has an odez utility that works pretty good. I thought about the scrolling cache trash collector stuff but the code isn't in JB that I've seen

Running this for weeks with some tweaks from pimp my rom alpha and no lag, random reboots, or anything.

1.4ghz, Brazilianwax, sio.

Oh and I can't go above 1.4 without freezing. I used to be able to hit 1.7 comfortably.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:
How high you can OC changes from Rom to Rom. There are so many variables it will make your head spin. I've literally run almost identical Roms, with the same kernel. Set up the same way. On one I could OC to 1.9mHz all day. The other only 1.2mHz, or it would lock up. Also don't be to concerned about how high you can OC. Be more aware of how the Rom performs, and behaves on a day to day basis. Just because you can OC higher will not guarantee the Rom will perform better ;) .

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
You really don't need to go above 1.4 GHz imo anyway... It's kinda overkill and it will drain your battery and may eventually lead to problems. I usually do 245 min and 1.2 max... Great performance and battery life.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BigSplit:
You can't go over that because of the kernel. If anyone decides to recompile the kernel to fix it, you need to rebuild the frequency table with multiples of 192000.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] moocow1452:
The only thing that OC really helped with was a Cave Story port that couldn't get sound up to speed without it. Still ran slow, but at least the music was nice.

OP updated with v5-Lagfree Edition
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jdjohn:
I have a few specifics on keyboard functionality based on my experience thus far. For texting, emailing (normal typing), the 'shift' and 'FN' keys work properly, although the indicator lights do not illuminate when you press those two buttons. And of course they don't stay lit either if you double-touch the buttons for all-caps or all-number input, respectively.

For web form input (e.g., FB posting on mobile FB), you have to hold the 'shift' or 'FN' button AND press the desired character key at the same time.

Again, for normal typing, you don't have to press two keys at once. But for web input you do have to press the keys simultaneously. This is probably a CM10 'feature', not a problem specific to this custom ROM. I can deal with the difference in input, but I would like to see the indicator lights illuminate when the 'shift' and 'FN' buttons are pressed.

I personally miss the compact qwerty onscreen keyboard as well, but again, probably lost in CM10 (or earlier). Thanks for building this ROM, though! It's my first ROM to flash away from the stock look.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
No prob, thanks for your patience... think it's finally "good to go" as one user said. The fifth time seems to be the charm for me. It took me five tries to port this to the EVO too.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jdjohn:
And I just flashed V4 yesterday! Do you think a dirty flash for V5 would be okay?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
No. Full Wipe needed.

BTW I did this update and MikRunny Revival (uploading now) completely on my Shift... computer died. Only used ROM Toolbox, Script Manager, and ES File Explorer.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] galaara98:
Bilgerryan, why not add him to your thanks in OP so his input doesn't get lost as the thread grows...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Done, thanks for reminding me.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] galaara98:
So I'm trying to think of a good way to upgrade and preserve installs... Do many of ya'll let Google back up your apps and restore. I haven't since the "first time" when I had a HTC Inc, and I changed builds like a crackhead and one day outa the blue all these apps started installing and it seemed out of control... so I never used the "feature" again. Reason is I just got my wifeys shift on v4 she loves it except the lag, she asked to go back to straps SS (ok she asked to go back to the way it was, but does love how JellyBelly looks and works). So are peeps actually letting Google save and restore, or is that still more crazy than functional.. I always can restore carefully from titanium or rom toolbox, but we all know the damage potential for that.. it better as a restore to same as backed up from (like for cheating death in games or saving SMS messages from accidents)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Titanium backup is included. I use automatic restore all the time, never had a problem. It will automatically download all the apps you have installed now. Just sign in and let it sit for an hour or less if you're on WiFi. No work needed. Or use TiBackup if she is impatient (most women are). It is only damaging if you don't click "app only" at the top before you restore. Don't restore data and you're golden.

Anyone seeing lag and crashes if they navigate around the manage apps area of settings... just select random downloaded apps as if you were gonna force stop or clear data. V5 smoothass sio 1.2Ghz max... sometimes freezes sometimes hot boots
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Did you do a full wipe? I just tried to recreate it and didn't even get a hiccup. Using same settings. I will have a2sd up in about an hour, maybe that will help

So i found a problem every time i open my keyboard the screen turns off. I have to press the power button to turn off then power again to turn the screen back on again. Any time opening or closing the keyboard i have to do this. Anyone else? Or anyone know what's wrong?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:
Is this the first time this has occurred ? Reason I ask, is this sounds more like your Flex Cable going South. Do you hear a crunching noise when you open or close the KB ?

No crunching noises yet.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Send drob311 a pm
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
I did. Also the closing and opening thing stopped. Did a cache and dalv wipe. Rebooted and it stopped. Strange. Maybe its time to do a rebuild on this old girl. Hinges were always a little loose feeling.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:
Most times when someone comes to me and says that rhe screen is going blank when they open the KB, it turns out to be the Flex Cable. About 98% of the time.

I keep trying to install the a2sd according to the instructions but I can't get it to install. Does it only work with a specific kernel? Doesn't show up in tb and terminal command says no such command...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
You have data and cache mounted before you flashed? It worked on this ROM with this kernel and with drob's test kernel. Those are the only ones that I've tested. Follow the instructions and it will work. Also try a full wipe and install ROM. GApps, then a2sd in that order then reboot.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
I use 526 mb or whatever that weird number is. It should not matter. You need to make sure the partition is there, format your SD then do the partition again.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
I really want to keep this thread about this ROM and not a2sd. I put it out there for the people that want it, follow the instructions word for word and search how to correctly partition an sd-ext. I don't want to answer questions about it, it will work if you do it right.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] metaphysical_calamity:
lol

I see that now :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
I am also having problems getting the a2sd to work I have formated a bunc of times too and also tried other programs and different ext types and sizes. What recovery are you using to get it to work?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Dread's modified CWM (the recommended recovery for all my ROMs)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
OK so the only way I was able to get a2sd installed was to mount cache, data, and system. Retried this 3 times just to be sure? I will update more once I have installed all my apps and have settled in the phone.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Do it before you install your apps, but like I said before I want this thread to be about JellyBelly... Start a thread in Q&A or General if you guys are having trouble with a2sd.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Got a general question. Does your speedy suck with ondemand governor and JB? And does smartassv2 seem extremely smooth? I'm wondering because based on how my speedy runs smartassv2 I'm gonna compile doubleshot cm kernel with that added to see if it helps over there too. But I figured I'd ask while my dinosaur compiles a kernel

Sent from my JellyBeaned speedy
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Yeah that was my experience too
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jdjohn:
I took your recommendation and changed changed the appropriate settings under 'Backup & reset' under System Settings for the Google backup and auto restore. I didn't see any discernable activity afterwards, though. Does it just quietly backup the information in the background on the Google servers? How often does it update for new apps that get downloaded?

Also, is this just a JB feature, or if I flash back to a GB Sense ROM will it still do the auto restore?

Ok, duh...obviously Google tracks whatever you download from the Play Store, so they immediately know every time you add an app.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
It will still auto restore, just not as many things

I've found that when restoring on JB roms, it does Wifi passwords and the basic stuff, but on GB it only does the basic stuff
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
CNexus is correct, it does wifi passwords and whatnot on ICS too. It also seems to detect what version you are on and restore apps accordingly (2.3, 4.0, 4.1, etc.)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jdjohn:
Basic is better than nothing for GB. I only access a few wifi access points, so not a big deal to add those manually if I do a GB flash.

Now I'm also letting my work/Exchange contacts synch to GMail. Not sure how I feel about that; I'm afraid to put work contacts on GMail since there seems to be a lot of spam on GMail, and I don't want my work contacts to be exposed, but too late now! I had a lot of duplicate contacts after restoring from backup, but I was able to delete duplicates and merge contacts in GMail pretty easily. I don't use GMail for anything except as my Google login.

Speaking of email, for this JB ROM I can't get email to refresh automatically as it should. I have it set for every 15min, but it only refreshes when I actually open the email app. I never had this problem with Froyo or GB. Any ideas?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Idk i have to update mine manually half the time on ANY ROM
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] mms678:
Installed this ROM yesterday for the first time, and there's something a bit weird with the (on screen) keyboard. I have a '-' in my password, and I use Google's 2 step authentication. The keyboard in the browser sign in would not accept a '-' (or a + either). In the regular username/password screen the keyboard produced a -, but in the browser it didn't work.

Of course I had forgotten that my Shift has a physical keyboard before I went back to my previous rom. I'll likely try again tomorrow with the physical keyboard.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
Lol brain farts are awesome. When you do try it again you won't be sorry. This is a great ROM.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Quetzalcoatl:
I had this thing on v4 where when I tried hitting the colon key on the onscreen keyboard in the browser, it would take me back to the homepage lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Weird I have not experienced either of these in the browser.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
This is another bug you have no control over. We have issues like this on the doubleshot
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
All those weird bugs in JB are because the code got rushed to move onto 4.2(or 10.1). CM9 had way less bugs.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] galaara98:
OP should note DT a2sd likes cache, data, And system mounted before his script run... you can dig that from the 1000 or so posts, but just humor me and add system in OP and most will be happy. Also dreads cwr can change the partition type of sd-ext... I personally would use ext4, but original script from DT might expect ext3... not sure
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
Huh, thought I had that in there already. Thanks.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] galaara98:
There is a current.... Issue... Where in some interfaces you need to click shift/fn then the chosen key and in other interfaces you need to hold shift/fn and then click your chosen key (then you can let go of shift/fn...like a desktop)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jdjohn:
So would you recommend smartassv2 for this ROM? Probably a stupid question, but is this optimized for the 'lagfree' setting? I mean, it is in the name. ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
It isn't "optimized" for any governor. They all are pretty lag free, check out prboy's links in General for the differences between governors.:)

(Begin career/personality rant)

Please don't take any of my dry comments as insulting to your work. I have a career in IS security (I should note I have a job in IS Security, but not a speciality in the Linux OS or derivatives, nor JAVA applications, however I am well familiar with the OS, and any programming language to an extent)

I try to be just one of the guys in the android world, but sometimes my bug buzzer goes off, and I habitually report what I see even if I do not have all the facts. For an IS security person every time you acknowledge a bug OR explain it is not a bug I learn what you are trying to do.. hence why I try to in general... relax, get out of your way, and let y'all work. Otherwise I can get absorbed in proof of value versus cost, constantly balancing likely hood of the audience aware of incorrectness or ability to misuse against the damage potential: damage to device, owner, community.

(End rant)

So know that I am, by choice, not looking for you to fix because I state something, but instead looking to help if you want to incorporate my thought...without complaint if you donot.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
It's all good, I would rather people point it out so it can be fixed rather than me thinking everything is the way I thought.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] galaara98:
I just want you to know, and the other devs that peruse here that I REALLY appreciate all of you. And I often come off confident (read cocky, irritating)... its a little too heavy to the "nerd side" type personality. I do know how to compile builds, and kernels, not to the extend many of you are changing small groups or even single values to look for a result, because I don't have the time, so I VALUE your efforts even more, because I know the concept of what you are working at and the TIME you are gifting us. I am always amazed at your Gift of talent + Time.

___

Sometimes all of you devs Apologize for a mistake, or missed promises and remind us about your real life, real families, real work, real stress, real sleep and food needs... but I wish you didn't feel culturally obligated to apologize... because some of us freeloaders have the gall to demand to release or fix something that was a gift in the first place.

Anyway the first post was more of who I am but this was my real thought...thanks... and you don't have to say sorry, laugh it off, and thank God you are still enjoying tinkering so I can enjoy your builds!
