Hey all, I looked around a bit, but I didn't see an answer to this. Both me and the gf are currently using MikTouch. Occasionally, there will be a little random sluggishness/wonkiness doing general tasks on either phone. Can doing something like cleaning the cache get it back up to speed? If so, what's the best cache cleaner to use? Also, will it delete any real data (ie: messages on Viber/Weixin) from the apps? Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yeah you should properly maintain the phone by keeping caches clean, which keeps the system running on its toes. You can either use CacheCleaner NG from the market, or wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery. It shouldn't delete anything off your phone besides useless trash files. I wipe my caches every 12 hours sometimes

Hey Guys

Its been a while I have been using Democracy and I love it but there is just only one Problem with this rom the Battery life is really Poor. I barely get one day. So I think its time for me to move on. I dont want any ICS or JB ROMS as they are too bad on battery life and RAM comsumption. So plzz could u advice me ROMS based on

2.3.6

OR

CM7.2

I want a fast ROM just Like democracy. It gave me a score of 3817 on Antutu Benchmark WITHOUT OVERCLOCKING . :laugh:

Plzz advice me some ROMS not ICS or JB ones....
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] tcris45:
so.. you don't need an specific rom , u need one whit the correct tweaks i'm using itachi's cm7 whit slayd fast mod2.5 and lag free by slayd and juwe's ram manager and i cam play gta3 whit minimal lag sometime whit the cpu at just 921 mh and the run is always 170+ free, the battery life is prety good half of day of hard gaming :)

and some roms that look like i specificated are Adrenaline ROM and DedianDroid ROM :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] EvilKing009:
For 2.3.6 rom

try Enhanced236 or S'perience final rom.they have a good performance in gaming and battery life + they are smooth in their interface

For CM7 rom

Try Jellybread 2.5 , Itachisama's CM7 or Droidgio v3 final they had a good battery life and had a good performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Pink Bunny:
I like the Adrenaline™ ROM (based on 2.3.6 Im pretty sure since it has the touchwiz ui).
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] abdullahaftab:
Thanks guys for suggestions. I have switched to enchanced 2.3.6

What if somebody wants/needs to be called noob :p

It's not always a bad thing :eek:

Nice article btw.:good:
[XDA-University] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Wanting to be called a "noob" is not a goal XDA wants for its community. It usually ends with that person being ignored, which turns to rebellion then banning from the forum. Mind you it takes time to be banned, we all need to learn at some point. XDA is loaded w/ information to help people understand what it is they are looking for.

It's usually a term given to somebody that constantly asks questions, which can easily be answered with a simple search..

@saywhatt are you OK with this ^^?
[XDA-University] goldenfly88:
Good read. Though it would also be interesting to have a way for existing devs who aren't XDA members (like me :( ) to be able to fasttrack out of noob status, for example by answering some questionnaire on coding, hacking, or dev-related matters. Having to submit 10 posts (while waiting 5 mins in between, and having to find meaningful things to say) just before I can reply to some questions on other dev forums is somewhat tedious...
[XDA-University] TonyStark R.I.P.:
No matter the length of time you are here. No matter the content of information you poses. There will always be somebody with more knowledge that will call you a noob ;)

Remember it is in most cases a joke. While you may find some that can be rude about it, simply don't reply to such comment's. This is one of the first steps to loosing the noob nomenclature.
[XDA-University] fierocrazy1:
yes im a noob but weren't all here at one time or another.the best thig here is to take advantage of what others here have learned and not get discuraged. i will be the first to admit im a noob and proud of it. i've been able to take the info i learned here and mod some of my own phones im working with some of the older androids so i can work my way up to the newer ones thanks to all for what you have tought me all that you will teach me un the future.

[XDA-University] dawnbudgie1306:
This is one of my favorite places that defines Noob

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=noob

Defining 'Noob'

Contrary to the belief of many, a noob/n00b and a newbie/newb are not the same thing.

Newbs are those who are new to some task* and are very beginner at it, possibly a little overconfident about it, but they are willing to learn and fix their errors to move out of that stage.

n00bs, on the other hand, know little and have no will to learn any more. They expect people to do the work for them and then expect to get praised about it, and make up a unique species of their own. It is the latter we will study in this guide so that the reader is prepared to encounter them in the wild if needed.

Noobs are often referred to as n00bs as a sign of disrespect toward them.

* Usually the topic at hand on an internet forum.

[XDA-University] broodplank1337:
Great guide, I lolled while reading it, however I came to chapter 4 and had to reply.

"Noobs follow a variation of the 1337 (sometimes 7331) religion, in which they worship the number in odd rituals and put altars in their forum avatars and signatures. They often call themselves 1337, which experts say is somewhat like calling themselves godly in a human language. It's best to not interfere with their religious fantasies and practices because that can lead to a noob uprising, which can turn a forum to mush in less than a week."

I am glad this text did not cover "putting 1337 in their usernames" because it would be wrong obviously (I chose broodplank1337 because broodplank was already used by some prick lol)
[XDA-University] mdamaged:
Who are you trying to convince us or yourself?

;)
[XDA-University] broodplank1337:
neither actually, I'm trying to convince Google obviously, so that when they index this post, they see that even though my name includes 1337, I still am not a noob, meaning they would instantly hire me.

Luckily I don't have to convince anyone ;) I am just in this lame trolling mood that I sometimes get during the weekend xd

But about the username being taken was not a lie lol. it is some guy that I most likely know, I contacted him aka. the "other" broodplank (some other dutch guy) by getting his mail from some forum profile once, and he honestly told me he stole my name and didn't care about it

I waited months to join XDA, little hesitant in beginning, seeing fights in open threads. Finally made up my mind to join few years back. With the help of great patient Mods like Tony I never find it difficult at all. It is a smooth ride till date.

Upon the years I see XDA has improved tremendously and don't find unnecessary quarrels like before. Hats off to Mods for their due diligence and stable temperament.

Still being a developer with least minimal contribution to XDA very less posts in development forum considering its sanctity.

I personally don't like anyone to be called as a noob. A nooby at one end may be a genie at other end!

No one one will know what a baby will become in the future. Great people are usually failures in standard education simply because it doesn't apply to them.

Very sad news

Hi all,

Unfortunately I have to inform you about the very sad news that Tony Stark, OP of this thread and many other new projects, died on March 20th. I'm shocked and deeply impressed by his death. He was not only a very good friend, but also my teacher, who brought me where I'm today on this forum. I have learned to know Tony as a positive person who was always willing to help people, but also as a critical person whenever needed. RIP Tony, I love(d) you very much. See my signature.

In Loving Memory of TonyStark, akaTom

Dear XDA Members,

I'm still deeply touched and mourning about the passing away of our beloved friend Tony (I can say now that we were very close friends), I'm very amazed and disappointed that, after my announcement of his passing away, this thread "dried" up. No new messages were posted after that. The passing away of Tony, does not mean that this thread is not alive anymore, surely we will miss the posts/comments of Tony, but this thread must be kept alive cause this thread is a perfect example of Tony's character on this forum, e,g, his dedication to keep XDA as organized as possible, his humourous reactions, whilst being very serious, his positive approach and also his criticism. This thread is Tony at his very best.

kindest regards, kuzibri
