[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrat_castle:
Guys, A little Help!

I am currently using my old Galaxy S I9000, as my HTC has gone to Service Centre for a week.

Last time I left it with JB Custom Rom (C-Rom Bean v1.9.0 Final) which was working quite OK! Now its too much laggy and slow all over while on JB Rom. I have already tried CM11, CM10.2, Slimkat, SpiritRom and Dark Unicorn (all 4.x.x and above).

Currently I am on CM7.2, which is working quite fine, considering its based on GB 2.3.7. I was also looking for working Lewa OS link, as I liked the one that I installed on my HTC, but couldn't find one.

Can anyone help me to understand what has happed to make this phone go soooooooo slow. Even if I am unable to instal Android 4 and above, I would still need the link for Lewa OS. If anyone has it, that'd be most helpful.

Mainly, the problem is on the way the different roms use the dalvik vm and the way aforementioned roms are unable to leash cache used. So, my recomendation is a good rom which a good preset over dalvik used of memory and applications like App Cache Cleaner to erase the cache every now and them.

For me the perfect combination is:

1. Stable CM10.2.1 rom

2. Kernel Semaphore 3.3.0 (avoid version 3.3.0s because it gives problems with Netflix, besides version 3.3.0 is perfect and you can activate bigmem with Semaphore Manager App, so 3.3.0s is nonsense) (NOTE: You need odin for installing it, follow this instruction)

3. Gapps: gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

4. Semaphore manager app. Settings for Semaphore Manager:

- Smartassv2 Governor: Awake ideal freq 900000 / Up rate 10000 / Down rate 99000 / Max CPU 50 / Min CPU 20 / Ramp up 300000 / Ramp down 300000 / Sleep ideal freq 300000 / Sample rate jiffies 2.

- Deep Idle: Enable

- Lock min freq to 100Mhz: Disable

- Active Scheduler: CFQ

- Bigmem: Enable

5. My build.prop to be placed within /system/ (remember to set for this file rw-r--r-- permissions and change owner to root).

6. A launcher like Zeam Launcher or Lightning Launcher

7. And finally an installed App Cache Cleaner Pro to erase the cache every now and them.

Best.

I have flashed CM10.2.with minimal gapps, but now unable to connect to internet. Tried flashing many times after wiping data, clearing cache and clearing Dalvik cache, but still unable to connect to internet.

EDIT: That as a temp problem with my carrier network. So, I have installed CM10.2 with above details. Working fine so far. Will let you know if there is any problem with this setup.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Try to flash the final build 2.2 of SlimBean 4.3 with SlimGapps.

It is faster than CM10.2 and has much better battery life (especially if you use TRDS mode)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuskro:
Good to know, enjoy.

Thanks for your piece of advice, I tried it long time ago but I still prefer a CM10.2.1 + a tweaked Semaphore 3.3.0 + Zeam Launcher + my build.prop + minor removing of CM apps.

Best.

I have tried to flash the zip last week but it stucked on "extracting system" every time. It just updated my recovery to TWRP 2.8.4.1, but didn't even reboot.

Maybe it is phone that isn't OK anymore. Its internal memory isn't working correctly anmore.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
OK, I 've flashed it. Lollipop on the i9000. It took 19min until the process was finished.

I have also flashed PA Gapps pico by Tkruzz, all other are probably too big.

The Omni LP alone (just Omni 5.0) is extremely smooth, but quite slow.

After flashing of Gapps (which BTW work perfectly fine) my i9000 has turned into the slowest device I ever used. It is way slower than Eclair, actually just same slow like my S8000 running CM7 from externalSD card.

It takes 15sec to open PlayStore, up to 2min to download and install an app (even smaller apps), about 5-10 sec to react on pressing any button and the device is often running out of memory and soft reboots are the result. It takes up to 15sec until the keyboard appears etc.

Otherwise all important functions work fine, but Lollipop is too big a task for the i9000 and except that it just works, there is simply no many people who would like to use a device with auch slowdowns. Even biggest fans of the i9000 (I might be among them) will have to face the fact that Android 5.0 is actually out of the hardware capacity of the S1

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrat_castle:
I myself am using CM10.2. Which works fine, with just a bit of lag. Its either that or gingerbread. Anyways, omni 5.0 for i9000 is just experimental at this stage, with promise for a more stable build by [MENTION=3031478]humberos[/MENTION]. It may be light on the system, but who knows.

I'd say buy a newer model if we need new OS as software is as good as its hardware and vice versa. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Omni is excellent and very stable, although in Alpha stage. That isn't my point.

LP system cannot get smaller, the i9000 is simply too slow for Android 5.0

It was just an info for people who dream to use Lollipop on i9000. It is a huge slowdown.

I have much faster devices but I don't use LP even there.

Hey,

I suggest you guys to use SlimBean v2.9 with the latest Slim JB gapps. The phone will be quite fast, despite this device is very old... This version of SlimBean is not available on their site but is here:

https://mega.co.nz/#!6xJnVaBY!qhF1g99N0zE1w6XZd3E2IPgvlBgAJWGrYluZehgajNE

It's an android 4.1.2 and SlimBean version 2.9. It's not on the official site because it's not the latest 4.1.2 version they have distributed. That's the 3.1 if I'm not mistaken.

Sorry I don't have an md5 for the file...

I don't think I ever got around to trying the 4.3 version, I remember the 4.2.2 version was a bit hit and miss when it came to battery (but then again, all 4.2.2 roms save Gamerzrom and a few others were). By the time the 4.4.x version came out I moved onto the S3 so I can't vouch for that, but Slim roms are pretty good :P

And you legend, thanks a lot :)

Hey, [MENTION=4799887]Soryuu[/MENTION], I have flashed today Alberto96's MIUI (4.1.2) with integrated Gapps and some tweaks (and with Gear stock kernel, of course). It is beautiful and works excellent, I didn't know it before.

It has quite different UI, neither like TW nor like AOSP. Also very cute ringtones.

tetakpatalked from Nexus 7 flo
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
MIUI's a bit of an oddball when you compare it to TW/AOSP roms, but it's quite refreshing. The launcher by itself on the Play Store's a bit meh (feels really out of place) but the whole system is just different, but in a good way. (though I think the build I tried had the AOSP camera, not sure if Alberto's builds do)

I can't find my SGS! I know it's somewhere in the house, I just need to search harder... maybe I should try MIUI on the old S3 and see how that goes. Lollipop on it so far's a bit janky but daaaaamn, Material :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Strangely, Alberto96's MIUI is based on CyanogenMod despite it looks like a "real" MIUI :)

It also has mods like AdAway by default, also SuperSU is integrated and it is debloated. Good luck in searching your i9000

:D

OT:

Check if DerTeufel1980's dual-boot devil kernel for S3 supports MIUI. Maybe you can keep your presently used ROM and try also MIUI.

Did I write you that I am using for my another SIM card Note 2 which has very similar hardware like your i9300 except bigger screen. I use there also dual-boot devil kernel and boot SlimKat 99% and TW based deodexed 4.3 as rest 1%

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
That sounds pretty sweet actually, sometimes little things make the rom so much better.

Hahahaha, my S3's no longer my daily driver (that would be my Note 4) so it's more like my device that I flash roms onto just see how they perform. I've always been a bit intrigued by dual-booting but I've never really gotten into it. Maybe it's worth a try...

Hi,

"Root checker" says that my phone is rooted. But when I try to launch my phone with my 32GO sd card (4.5 of ext2), it boots without end.

I tried to resolve the problem with "Init.d Toggler" but it says "Since your BusyBox is not installed your init scripts may not work".

I try to link my sd card with "Link2SD" and my phone is a Sony Xperia L c2105 with Android 4.2.2.

Can someone help me ?

Thank you

Update your busybox with app from playstore (busybox).

Or, maybe your kernel doesn't support ext2 partitions.

I did it but it's still not working. And I read on internet that my phone (Sony Xperia L) support the ext2 partitions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] norml:
About 2 weeks ago, I started noticing that my phone wasn't receiving calls, texts, or voicemail alerts, unless I manually set it to 4G, or if I made a call and my phone would switch by itself from 4G LTE to 4G, like it always did. So the problem was that it wasn't switching to 4G when receiving calls or texts. I would get a barrage of texts, voicemail alerts when I would call someone. After flashing different roms, I decided to revert to the latest stock T-Mobile fw and it worked fine. So I'm making a call by swiping right on the contacts name, and instead of seeing "calling" it says "VoLTE call HD" and my phone stays on 4G LTE during calls and is always on now, for obvious reasons of course. This sucks because I can't flash different roms, I'm stuck with the latest stock, which is BS. From what I've read so far, there are no custom roms with this VoLTE working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
I think Tmo introduced VoLTE and HD calls last summer, or even before that, but I'm not sure why would that suck? you just have more choices which poison to take. I'm sure at some point developers will figure how to make both work, maybe already did. HD calls are a little finicky, phones on each end need to support it and VoLTE is important only when there is no other signal except LTE, so neither should be a deal breaker for most part. I think bigger issue would be the reason you switched to stock in the first place, where phone doesn't work anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] norml:
Why did I switch to stock? Because I wasn't receiving calls,texts,or voicemail alerts since they implemented VoLTE. It stays stuck on 4G LTE, instead of switching to 4G. Even when I turn off the feature in the latest stock, it acts the same way as I explained in other roms. I cannot receive calls, so LTE becomes useless. There is literally NO roms that I can use, unless I have it set manually to 4G (WCDMA/GSM). So I cannot use any other roms, I'm use to flashing different roms, experimenting, now that's out the window, unless I sacrifice LTE. Why pay damn near $80 a month for something I am not using? This is ridiculous.

Tweaked Rom works great with VOLTE.

Try to look a little harder before you rant.

Almost 5000 posts in the thread so it's never been far from the top of the list for the past 7 months. More reading and less typing is my recommendation for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] norml:
I will keep speaking my mind and inform T-Mo users about what will happen when VoLTE arrives for them. I HAVE read, and there are a BUNCH of reasons why I chose not to use that particular rom when it first came out and about 2 weeks ago when VoLTE hit. I'd rather be on stock as of right now. I don't think any of our members have a clue about VoLTE and how limited they will be when it hits them. Either way, thanks for reading my thread and ur suggestion.
[Dell Venue] TheBoiledDogs:
For those who don't know how to root their KitKat Venues on Windows 7 but want to, here's how I did it.

1. Make sure USB Debugging is On

2. Download the Rootkit from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2681783

3. Extract the Rootkit in wherever you downloaded it.

4. Open run-me.bat from the folder

5. Install and Update ADB Drivers

6. Once it's all good, go to http://xdaforums.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096/post57543871#post57543871 and download IntelAndroid-FBRL-01-17-2015.7z (Extract it as well) and UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.Xx.zip

7. Place SuperUser into your device or SD Card

8. Run Launcher.bat from IntelAndroid-FBRL-01-17-2015.7z folder.

9. Select T1 and let it reboot to recovery.

10. Install Superuser from wherever you downloaded the file to.

11. Let it do it's thing and reboot.

12. Download Root Checker and make sure it's working

13. Profit!

This method should work with other Venue and Intel devices

Hey folks,

I am getting my new Xperia Z3 Compact within the next few days ( :D ) and so I am looking for a good micro SDXC card.

After reading some tests I decided to get a Sandisk again. That is not really a big surprise - I always used Sandisk in the past because they are very fast, absolutely reliable and (mostly) not that much more expensive than the second or third best ones.

In the end I focussed on these two cards: The SDSDQX-064G-G46A (seems to be the best card available on the market with up to 95MB/s) and the SDSDQX-064G-U46A (seems to be the second best with up to 80MB/s). In some tests they even measured higher rates, but well, that is another story and not the reason of my thread... So, back to topic!

How much is the maximum data transfer rate of the Xperia Z3 Compact??

There is no sense in spending about 20 Euros more for the flagship if the Xperia can "only" read up to 80MB/s or so... ;) So does anyone of you have trustworthy data (Sony data sheet, tests etc.) how fast the phone can read and write on micro SD?

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] difto:
There is a thread on that, the Xperia tops at 40 mb/s writing or reading probably a bus limitation
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P-A-L-A-D-I-N:
Are you sure about that? Since no one had answered here, I asked the Sony Mobile support and they told me (see e-mail below) that there is no speed limit at all. But they also mentioned that 40MB/s is far enough for recording 4k videos and so. Thus, there would be no reason to buy a faster card. In the end I bought a 48MB/s card with 128GB (for the same money as the fastest 64GB card). Maybe this slower 128 GB card is even faster in the end, since it is also said that cards (like SSDs) become faster (in random writing at least) the bigger they are... Well, who knows! ;)

Guten Tag,

vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage an den Sony Xperia Support.

Da wir bereits im Chat auf deutsch geschrieben haben, denke ich es ist in Ordnung wenn wir auch hier auf deutsch schreiben. Die Schreibgeschwindigkeit für SDXC Micro SD Karten im Gerät ist nach oben hin nicht begrenzt. Aber ein Beispiel: für die Aufnahme von 4K Videos beispielsweise wäre eine Karte mit 40MB/s vollkommen genügend. Ich würde Ihnen aktuell also sagen es gibt keinen Grund für die Funktionen am Gerät eine Karte mit 95 MB/s zu kaufen. Solche Karten machen eher in hochklassigen DSLR Kameras Sinn.

Hello!

I have a friend going to NYC pretty soon and I am searching for a BT earphones solution under 50$, I have to choose between the Sony SBH20 at 35$ at B&H and SBH50 at 50$.

So far I know the main differences are:

-SBH20 is smaller and lighter though only 5gm less

-SBH50 is more expensive but not by much like the 52.

-SBH50 has an oled screen and can read SMS which is helpful when doing sports.

So on the paper the SBH50 is better in everything but the weight, but what about the screen in practical matter?

I mean is it easy to see the screen or it's a pain to unclip it every-time you want to see the song's name or read an SMS, making the SBH20 equal then?

Are you ''obliged'' to clip the SBH50 because of its weight or not?

There are lots of Chinese branded QY7 models on Amazon at 35$ but the earphones look liek not delivering good audio quality, something like the very basic entry level Sony IEMs, while with these SBH20 and 50 I can plug my HIFIMAN RE-272

PS: I have an HTC M8 as MP3 player

I'm going to help you bump this because I want to know, too.

I've been searching for days now and the best answer I can come up with is - maybe or probably not. It makes my head hurt. It might increase the possibility by using a tuner known to work with a Raspberry. Hauppauge 1191 WinTV-HVR-950Q ($50 through a third party on Amazon) is among the few and seems to have a margin of better reviews. And since it is supposed to work with he Pi, and I have one collecting dust, I'm going to get one and see if I can make it work with the Fire. Tough either way, I expect to have to jump through hoops (of Fire? ;) to make it happen.
