[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowfist23:
Just for an update from myself, I tried SlimBean 6.2 and ended up having a significant slowdown issue after several days; long pauses on most items and Google Search in particular became so slow as to be unusable. Oddly there was also a significant delay when starting up the Torch from the widget, which happens to be one of my most-used functions of the phone. 6.2 also uses Hangouts rather than Talk, and my hatred for Hangouts still burns like an unquenchable fire. Still, looking at the slimbean.net site the torch issue at least seems to have been fixed, so if blk_jack is kind enough to bless us with a new SlimBean ROM I'll probably try it again.

I have been using Flinny's CM10.1 Andromadus test build 24 for several days now but I am starting to see a slowdown there too occasionally, again especially with Google Search. Generally though I'm very fond of it, good chunk of free memory most times and it even runs Ingress pretty well, which is the one game/app I run that pushes my phone to its very limits.

I noticed someone mention "kbeezie's data swap mod" in the SlimBean thread and plan to investigate that when I have time, though I suspect I may need something faster than my class 4 32gb card (class 10 ones are pretty cheap now, but I'm somewhat poor, so).

I'm not gonna cry if I have to go back to Mimicry 1.5, which still has my love, even if the new JB builds are shiny and have some pretty cool UI enhancements.

welcome to android world.

I never seen any android rom that keep his original speed after a while of use.

even on recent devices, such as s3. You should reflash the rom.zip every time your rom is going laggy.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Slappy_G:
I'm going to post a similar question on the Q&A thread, but thought I'd start here...

When I'm connected to any network (WiFi OR mobile 3G), I have been seeing a consistent 15-20 second lag after searching thru Google Now. This delay is after the app has already loaded (which is nice and fast), and after I have typed a search term and hit enter.

This delay seems to be very consistent, but I have no idea what the root cause is. I've tried wiping cache/data for the app, to no avail. Also tried searching and looking thru this thread, and didn't see anything quite the same. Any suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thekenster:
I get the same delay.

For me though its only on the first search I do. After that its pretty quick.

Hi All,

Want to share with you, experimented the XXLT5 on GTN7000. Superb ROM....so far no issues....you name it, it works fine. Note the downloaded file is above 1GB...seems this has all the fixes required. You can root it as well....if any issues found on this stock rom do let me know....will be interested to catch the bug.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hotweiss:
Something must be wrong with the phone if you have such a high CPU usage after a fresh install. Send it in for servicing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] baz77:
first, whats your upgrade procedure, try without restoring stuff and let os settle in. restoring app+data usually causes this with me.

Also what app do you use for measuring cpu usage. That may be off for some reason. Also note cpu utilization v. s. governor. Example on demand scales up frequency when e. g. uses 80%, so it will seem high, but in regard to frequency it is not. Due to battery savings lower frequencies are used, until 80% frequency is reached before going to a higher frequency, thus for same task higher utilization of that frequency it may not be a bad indication is what I am saying.

Now a rom usually needs some time to synch, perform breakin tasks, scan all media etc, try to see through settings, development options then cpu utilization what is utilizing cpu. Maybe app has gone bad, rogue, or maybe its expected.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Murshad007:
M using CPU Z, thanx for utilization info
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] baz77:
your welcome, you can check also cooltool, that has a nice overlay you can position anywhere. You can configure and show e.g. frequency, cpu utilization, temp(battery I think), pretty fun.

Verizon ...

So how do I access n/w & recovery through recovery mode? Wiping cache and dalvic doesn't cause data reset?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
So for Verizon where you had found the settings for network put the phone on CDMA/evdo automatic I believe. Check your APN making sure its set. I attached screenshots just in case you want to hit the thanks button. To access recovery hold power button hit the reboot one it should say boot into recovery.

Clearing cache n dalvic does not mess with system. :thumbup:

I've witnessed some black dots in my pictures and videos recently. I thought the camera lens was dirty so I wiped it.

But they haven't gone away. I've read some stuff that digital camera sensors sometimes need to 're-calibrate' (sine cannon cameras have a dedicated calibrate function to resolve those " dead pixels")

What do you suggest I do?
