Fin,

If you have no freezing issue when you press the light button to turn the phone on, and you don't have any problem in voice dialing while the phone is on standby mode there is no need to set the phone to never switch off.

I'm using Jasjar and I'm facing the above two problems, and I can't avoid them without making these settings.

Regarding the battery issue, there is no much difference between the two modes.

Regards,

carefuly folks, this is not entirely accurate:

- what freeze? Not heard many complaints on this matter

- what voice command issue; mine works perfectly WITH the BT headset fix of course

- battery life WILL & does reduce significantly with "always on"

- spb PP 3.0.4 is latest version, and there are a few alternatives that are just as good. Principle of task closing is right tho.

- There are several other truly useful hacks that would add a lot more value to this issue, incl GPRS always on, Buzz's BT headset fix, selecting working plugins only, etc etc - browse this forum from the start if u r just starting out

Correction

Not to play the devil :twisted: but WM5 devices do NOT hard-reset if (when?!) they run out of power, since internally all programs and data are now stored in Flash memory instead of DRAM.

As a side effect, you should also experience some improvement in battery life, since the smaller amount of DRAM on a WM5 device leads to a significant reduction in power consumption when the device is "doing nothing" - i.e. using very little CPU/Network, but standing by for incoming calls or user input.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
craigiecraigie4,

- Regarding the freeze issue, I'm using Jasjar and it does freezes for 6-7 seconds whenever the power button or light button is pressed to switch the power on.

Also whenever I'm using the voice dial, this freezing causes the voice dial to delay and sometimes not responding.

But after setting the device to always on, I'm not experiencing any of those two problems.

- Battery life is not significantly reduced as you think, I tried both settings and any how I have to charge my phone once every day in both cases.

- spb pocket plus 3.0.4 is the latest version, and I did a typing mistake by saying it's 3.1.4..... sorry for that.

-Regarding the BT fix can you please post it here so that I can download it if possible... and can you please let me know what exactly does it fix?

Regards,

Khaled.

I hardly have problems with memory or speed.

I installed Listpro, Ewallet, some GPS software and NR de Luxe .

I use Excel, Word, and IE explorer frequently.

I use Agile in stead of MSN, but I never have problems with performance.

I do not often fully close ( settings/system/memory) programs used.

Can you give an example on which moments your really run into speed/memory problems?

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
Huib,

I'm using Jasjar, I don't know the differences between Jasjar and the other universal devices, and I'm having problem always when I open the device cover and pressing the power "light" button to turn the device on, it freezes for 6-7 seconds before I can use it for any purpose.

This also affects the voice dialling when the device is on standby mode as it freezes for long time until it recognizes that there is a voice dial and them gives me the beep to start voice dialling and sometimes it does not even gives me the beep.

May be there are some differences between Jasjar and the other Universal devices but these are the problems which I'm facing and this is how I resolved it.

Regards,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] herpi:
I have a Jasjar too. ( don't know how to get it into my profile, other then a comment)

You seem much further in know how than where I have arrived till now.

I can't say the machine is without bugs, but speed and memory never have been a problem so far.

Maybe a list of you software would give us a clue?

Dude, your JJ is F***ed! It should NEVER do this! I've not heard of anyone else complain of such a totally unacceptable delay, and I've not experienced anything like it myself, despite setting my device up from scratch about 10 times now to test various configurations. I stroingly suggest a hard reset, install spbPP (or whatever you prefer), and use for a bit to get used to it. Apply the "BT headset fix" (search for it here, it prevents BT from turning off over night), and "Always on GPRS" if u like that which most of us do, and pocket mechanic (search for "notification queue") to maintain your notifications as per another post I wrote yesterday. You should NOT have this issue at all. 7s would make me throw the JJ away right away! If this does not work for you - take it back. Good luck!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] apap:
I have the exact same problem of a delay on opening when it has been turned off for a while. Also, a friend of mine has the same problem. Your above mentioned fix of keeping it on appears to have saved the day for us, thanx.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
apap,

Thanks for your feedback, It seems it's only me and you who are having this problem, and it's very strange too that I had never faced any problem with blue tooth and I don't need any fix for it.

It seems that not all devices are similar.

Any how, I'm so happy with my device now after making the changes which I suggested on the top of this post, and I'm so happy too that it had solved your problem as well.

All the best.

BTW anyone know how to AS with WiFi ??
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] rilot:
I used to have the freezing problem too and I put it down to pocket plus and other today plugins that have memory meters.

It seems to be that when you hit the power button the universal it polls the SD card for a short while which causes the delay. Once I turned off the SD card meter on the today screen in either pocket plus or resco today the freezing went away.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Soft:
Add good idea :-)

Stil noone with AS wifi sync ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
Rilot,

You got it, it solved the freezing issue, you know, I many times un-installed the spb pocket plus because I recognized that it is behind the freezing issue but I did not know that the SD card meter is responsible alone for it.

Simon,

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback which I believe will help much in improving the performance of Jasjar / Universal devices.

I made all your additional settings and they seem to really improve the speed of the device.

I think we are on the right direction, let's continue trying and posting, I'm sure this will help.

@khaled,

Thanks for the great tips. I had notice these myself and pretty much did what you did but do notice that after changing step 3, my battery still drains quicker than before making the change. Wish there was something i could do about this.

Good work on the whole.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
@ universaldoc,

Thank you very much for your comments.

I agree with you that the battery drains "a bit" quicker than allowing the device to go on standby mode, but I think the performance of the whole device still better in general.

We have also to notice one important thing, this device is designed to be used as a mini lap top, and it's written in the mannual guide that we should attach it to the power supply whenever possible to avoid ending up with a flat battery. So, I always attach it to the power supply at home, in my office so that I don't suffer from any problems with my battery.

I do deal with this device as a lap top and I consider the phone as a software installed in my mini lap top, and I can say that this device in general inspite of needing some improvements to be done in the new ROM "soon I hope" but it still makes life more accurate, professional, and easier.

Resco Today plugin

removing this has sped up my device a lot. I have however chosen to keep my device turning off after 3 minutes as the battery drain was unacceptable.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] universaldoc:
I agree Khaled. I feel that with the upcoming ROM upgrade the battery drain problem will be solved and things will start looking up for us then.

Awesome one, In the process of following the above tips.

On my DOPOD 900 it solved other issues like in Today Screen the soft key was changing to "Notification" Any no of clicks it was not vanishing.

Some of the tips while i was playing around i found the memory leak issue with iLauncher also got solved.

Three cheers to This particular section.

When I upgraded my ROM to the latest O2 rom on my jasjar I did not let the extended rom programs install...when it said your device is going to be cusotmized and displayed counter I soft reset...so now I just have the basic Windows Mobile setup and no operator added stuff. it runs FAST!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijay555:
I can certainly agree. I was forced to install the extended rom for vjbigphone, but the ext rom dialer really slows things down. skip it if you can live without bubbly buttons and video calls.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
In addition to the original post, I have to say that the SPB Pocket plus slows down the device much.

I'm using resco today plugins for the last two months and working much much faster than SPB, but also avoid the SD card indicator on the today plugins to keep the speed of the device to the maximum.

Regards,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stickeresq:
remove Pocket Plus, use Resco Explorer if you need the today screen and Magic Button for the program management.

Pocket plus was the root of all evil with regard to my first Universal freezing.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jlingo:
3) Set the power settings as follows: "Start / Settings / System / Power / Advance / Un-check turn off device if not used for ".

I was wondering if you choose Un-check turn off device,

won't this mean that your device will be on all the time and you may end up with flat battery? I'm confused!

Thanks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jlingo:
Also I always have the screen on the top, so my HTC is in open situation(like open tablet configuration). I'm afraid that opening and closing my HTC too often would loosen the hinges? I'm having that problem with my Nokia communicator since I'm receiving a lot of sms everyday.

It's just a concern.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
Hi Jilingo,

Of course there will be more draining in battery if you set your device not to switch off as the device will be always on.

I think in your case there is no need to set your device to stay always on and it will not affect the speed of your device too much.

I'm now doing the same, setting my device to swich off after three minutes, it really saves battery life, no doubt there is a little affect on the device speed, but compaired with the battery draining I would prefer to bear a little slowness in my device rather than ending up with a flat battery in a short time.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] herpi:
That's the solution I use now for several weeks. With succes! I even do not use my Pocketbreeze anymore. Above combination with the free Calendar+ app on the bottom of my Today screen. What else would I need? This is near perfect. Resco is really the stabilizing factor I think.

Huib
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
I do agree with what stickeresq is suggesting, I'm using also Magic Button for the last two months and it's fantastic, it not only closes the applications, but also allows you to switch between the opened applications with one click only.

Resco today plugins + Magic Button is a perfect combination.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
I just installed Magic Button, is it normal to have a small blank screen when you are at the today screen on the upper right hand corner of the screen where the close button usually appears?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
I just discovered a bug in Magic Button aside from the blank screen on the right upper hand corner. If you open up the phone application by pressing the call button or receiving a call, a notification icon shows it is open but even if you close it by tapping or using OK button or using the (X), IT DOES NOT remove the icon. I do understand that the phone is still active, maybe that is why it still shows the phone icon. Any of you guys out there noticed these?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
Another thing I noticed with Magic Button, the battery indicator option causes severe battery drain. I unplugged my fully charged EXEC and after 5 minutes of idle time it is down to 97% doing nothing. I did not notice any slow downs though as compared to other applications with battery meters. I am not happy with it, so I am uninstalling it now.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
Hi cktlcmd,

Yes it's normal to have a small blank screen when you are at the today screen on the upper right hand corner where the close button usually appers, actually I don't like the way it looks, but after two or three days you will get used to it.

Regards,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
Hi cktcmd,

Magic Button only shows the running applications but it does not cause them to open and it does not fail to close them.

So, if the phone is always active this means that the activity of the phone is not caused by Magic Button, but might be cased by windows.

Just do the following test:

open the phone application, and then tap start/ settings/ system/ memory/ running program....... inspite of the phone application is opened, it does not appear in the running programs menu which means that not having the phone application appearing in running programs list does not mean that it's not working, but the fact is that the phone application is running but hidden.... what Magic Button does is only making it appear on the task bar, but it does not force it to open, and it does try to close it but it can't because windows does not allow it to close as it has to remain working in the back ground.

Hello everyone.

I updated my note2 to 4.3 yesterday using odin stock pre rooted. But since the update my screen keeps to turn on by itself every 30-40 seconds then turn off and so on.

I have Wakelock detector and the service that is causing the problem called TrackingService2

I re flashed the rom again and this time it didn't happen until today.

The wakelock returned.

I downloaded Disable Service and tried searching for it but I didn't find.

Anyone have the same problem? Any ideas?

Thanks Sadeshmagic,

I had this problem with rooted stock rom also, but if I remember correctly it wasn't this aggressive.

I tried Titanium backup, but couldn't find UID or Trackingservice2. After some googling I understood that every app has a UID, it's a ID, so that's why I can't find UID in any process list.

I booted note 2 in safe mode and noticed that the problem didn't appear then. So if it's a 3rd party app I don't understand why I can't find out the app that has a process called Trackingservice2.

So any advice on how i can locate the app that has Trackingservice2 process?

Thanks in advance.

I was able to install the new kernel to cromi-x 5.04 but I want to tune the hotplugging configuration for better battery life.

0 0 0 is the benchmarking performance mode right? Is 8 12 16 a normal setting good for battery life? Also these settings are in both 50cleantweeks and 99hundsapp init files. Hunds app only updates his script. Should I manually change 50cleantweaks to show the same values or are they over written by the 99hundsapp when its loaded during boot?
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
The init.d script will executethe 50 before the 99. So the 99hundsapp will be your setting.. You can remove the one in the 50cleanTWEAKS or put a number sign in front of it to comment it out. 0 0 0 is used when you want to disable the hotplug... The default for hund v3.4 is 7 10 12. The first number is the numbers of active threads before the second core is running and so on.. I could be wrong, haha. You can find more information on hund post..

You made this out to be so amazing but your thread gives off a different vibe. Your instructions are boring/horrible to look at. You've got walls of texts. Stop waffling and just get to the point, dude.

GMD Gestures is a great app and it's straight forward to use. I suggest everyone give it a try and even buy the pro version. You can record paths in the latest version!

OP, you didn't include one of the key aspects of multitasking - app switching. Maybe you did, but it's not very fast.

Gesture path: R

Action: prev app

Touch point: 1

Start zone: top left third

Something like that will let you switch between apps very quickly, and it's the fastest way possible atm. You could even integrate it with something like Glovebox, given that you modify the setup above and add a next-app gesture so you can switch back and forth.

P.S. It works absolutely fine on the S3, I don't know why you're blacklisting it.
