first this i did .. dumped cache's etc.. re-flashed gapps dumped cache's again rebooted..

funny is it's just not connecting to google services.. the blank screen allows me to type in searches.. and they work...

you try a voice search and the app closes..

so g+ and gnow must have to authenticate some how.. to function but why no connection to servers?

Re: [ROM] [JB 4.2.2] [Custom CM10.1] T-MO Galaxy S II Hercules

What fixes these kind of issues for me is fixing the file system permissions. You can do that through CWRM or TWRP. I actually prefer doing a file system fix through the ROM manager app. I enjoy watching it work personally. That should hopefully fix your connection issues to Google.

I found another bug. When I tried to apply different themes, there was an error message about missing assets. If I go ahead and apply it, I got fc and received an error "unfortunately system ui has stopped". Phone went blank for few seconds and then I can see the themes was successfully applied.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] camocritters:
thats perfectly normal almost all roms same error .. but fine..

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

nope.. best i can tell is i updated from the play store bot g+ and Gnow .. and it stopped working .. i have no other older copies.. to try ..

for both these apps it's supposed to "during login for the first time .. a second prompt saying required permissions.. but it's not .. "

acts like it cannot reach the servers .. but all other services work gmail play store etc.. just these two... so g+ has 2nd level auth and google now has the whole yes i'm in thing.. but those never happen just cannot see the servers.. really really don't want to re flash as i did this as clean as it gets.. and i've already spent setup time.. freaking sucks

Re: [ROM] [JB 4.2.2] [Custom CM10.1] T-MO Galaxy S II Hercules

I have no problem with google + or gnow.

I think the issue you had either bad download or bad flash.

I'm using the latest twrp with slim 3.4.

1. Full wipes: cache, factory reset, system, android secure.

2.flash ROM.

3.cache wipes and reboot

4. Wait 10 minutes.

5. Reboot.

6.cache wipes.

7.flash latest gapps. If using slim, you need to flash multi DPI play store.

8.cache wipes, fix permission and reboot.

Instructions? I'd like to try 200 or 180.

correct?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cl3Kener:
Re: [ROM] [JB 4.2.2] [Custom CM10.1] T-MO Galaxy S II Hercules

That's correct. Change lcd_density =200 in the build prop. (It's toward the bottom) Also make sure you flash multi DPI play store (I assume you already have but if not follow the thread link) and I would fix the file system permissions for good measure to prevent any strange program behavior.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cl3Kener:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cl3Kener:
It already has the drivers, I just removed the actual app because I didn't want as many apps in my app drawer. I never actually change from headphones to speaker but if you like having that the option here is the apk file. Just allow installation from unknown sources (I promise this app is safe, no viruses!) and install it manually. This will put the Dolby icon back into your app drawer. :)

all is well now..

i reimaged same files same zips ... i narrowed it down to the update from the play store and not first setting up g+ gnow.. it was never getting the permission requests... and even doing it right away this time it struggled to keep the prompts for permissions but it did and clicking on all the allows and it did set up .. these prompts were not coming up at all on my previous load.. you know the little triangle notification you get when launching the app the first time .. you get like 2 on g+ and on g now it has to pass through all the prompts for the "yes i'm in."

it's just was giving cannot connect to servers.. i would say due to lack of the prompts.. can't explain .. so not a bad flash i used the same zips etc... followed same steps .. except setting up the two right away .. and not updating from the play store first.. :confused:

any way all is well .

Again since Sensation XE doesn't have people promoting seeder too much, I brought it here for those who are not familiar with this.

Please don't post negative things here. I only understand theory of this mod that's all. And I held no credit to any of the content.

Requirements:

1. S-Off

2. Custom recovery

3. Rooted

4. Init.d Support for flashable version

CREDITS FIRST:

lambgx02 (for the original seeder and APK format) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1987032

FAQ:

What is seeder?

Its a mod that increases resource in your device so it wont suffer any starvation(lag).

Above is the easiest way to explain it.

What is the difference between APK and Flashable version?

APK version provides more options to tune method it provides resource and the frequency of it.

Flashable version will be automated in your device as long as your device have init.d support.

How can you prove it significantly improves performance?

Well I can't really tell, Dev's in sensation department is extremely good all ROM's are well tweaked. Its good enough without it, but IMHO it will be better with it.

To .zip version user only

Once you flashed it. Go to terminal emulator. Enter

su

seeder

A menu will show up. It will indicate if seeder is working in your device or not.

Thank the developers of this awesome invention, then Thank me if you think its good for me to bring it here.

Cheers!

TIP: Try on those high load games, the loading speed improvements are the best ways I can see after using this.

[HTC Sensation] ridder215215:
Although this improves performance slightly, the only thing it really does is run your CPU at a higher frequency. This'll cost precious battery life.
[HTC Sensation] KiD3991:
Can't say you're wrong at the battery life part. But IMHO, it doesn't actually touches the frequency part. Frequency is something that runs instructions, but this thing provides additional resource aka fuel for your device. It don't make your engine combust quicker, it will only make your engine combust cleaner, and more fuel that's all. :)
[HTC Sensation] ridder215215:
I'm just going to leave this quote from a CM maintainer here:

“IMNSHO the recent entropy pool fad is bull***. The only users of /dev/random are libcrypto (used for cryptographic operations like SSL connections, ssh key generation, and so on), wpa_supplicant/hostapd (to generate WEP/WPA keys while in AP mode), and the libraries that generate random partition IDs when you do an ext2/3/4 format. None of those 3 users are in the path of app execution, so feeding random from urandom does nothing except make random… well… less random.

The only conceivable reason some devices may feel faster is because by constantly polling the PRNG, it keeps the device’s I/O in constant use (which in turn, depending on device, will make the CPU stick to higher clock frequencies to keep up and/or ramp up the IO scheduler).”

Source

Don't get me wrong, if it seems to help for you, that's great. But I'm not going to use it.
[HTC Sensation] KiD3991:
I promoted this because it seemed great on my previous device. But in sensation the effect is much lesser than anticipated. Works in my friend's S2 though. Maybe its for low end devices only tsk tsk tsk.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pronoun:
Hello,

My Galaxy Nexus seems to be caught in a boot loop. I woke up this morning took my phone off the charger and it almost immediately said shutting device down and the battery indicator was red with an "X". Now every time I reboot the phone it goes to the Google and then through the Nexus logo gets to the desktop (I don't don't have a lock screen enabled) and then it buzzes and then goes into shutdown. I know the battery has juice because I booted into recovery mode and left the screen on and it doesn't show any signs of shutting it down from there. Also,when I rebooted several times I can get it to the desktop for about five minutes and the battery does show that it's three quarters full. When I decided to go into recovery mode I was able to select recovery when I hit the power button it boots up and then it comes with the android lying down with the red! I got it restored to the factory settings. Then rebooted and started to set up and it crashed and shutdown. when entering my Google account the Gallery Stopped and some other service had to force quit then it locked up. This all started after updating to 4.2.2. Now when I restore it and reboot, it just says "Welcome" and then says it is shutting down. I tried a few times and also deleted the cache as well to see if that would help (it didn't). Is there any way to get a clean update or do I need to send it in to Samsung.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Also, it is a Samsung Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play Store and has NOT been rooted.
