[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyM77:
After having a Note 3 i thougt stepping up to a Note 4 would improve in speed, it didnt, tw was extremely sluggish, lag was laughable with The killerspecs of The Note 4. Flashed a AOSP on my Note 3, fluid as hell! So i sold my new note 4 (0x0 knox), glad i got rid of it!!

Im never gonna buy a Sammy AGAIN, so AGAIN killer specs of The s6 and still lag, its junk!

TW, bloatware, stupid gimmicks are still the big problem!

Be smart, dont go for gimmicks that at first look good, but in reality you never use them..

Buy a Nexus 6, flash a Nice ROM, some mods, decent kernel, enjoy your fluid device!!

(Nexus 6 without contract 450 euro here, half The amount of a 899 s6 edge)

After downloading and installing the google keyboard from the play store, all keyboard lag I had experienced is gone. I think it has to be something with the preloaded keyboard(s) on the system because as soon as I disabled the other two keyboards (samsung and swipe) that were preinstalled and installed the google keyboard, no more lag.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edoson:
Im with google keyboard and it lags terribly, to the point that I need to wait 2-3 seconds between chararcters!!! I had S1, nexus 4, nexus 5 and this device is simply amazingly bad. keyboard lag on a 2015 flagship??? unbelievable. Never going to buy samsung again. After 3 beautiful years with the nexuses, Im considering flashing roms again. sad.

BTW, keyboards legs are not the only legs. I have wallpaper scrolling issues, switching apps issues and so on. Does anybody know if there's a tutorial out there to stop all bloatware and manage memory? Might be better trying to control whats running before starting to flash roms.

Turning off vibrate on keypresses seems to help a lot.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabawarkie:
try this, may not help with the lag on the keyboard but helps with the lag between switching apps,

go to settings>about device> press build number 10 times, (give you the option for developer options) go back into settings then just above about device you will now have 'developer options' go into there and then scroll down until you see 'window animation scale, transition animation scale and animator duration scale, change all these to .5 or animation off (I have mine at .5) do this for all three and then give your phone another go, should help improve things.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowby123:
That only gives the illusion of faster animations... It does not actually increases the speed

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew Joseph:
can't find this info anywhere but please redirect me to appropriate page if i've missed it.

using android 5.1 DU test-v9.2 on nexus 5 32Gb

this has been stable for a few weeks until i changed themes today. i backedup via cwm up after installing theme, on reboot i can't get past screen for sim pin.

i press the onscreen keys, the keys show they have been pressed, but there is no sound or vibration and the numbers don't appear above the keypad.

as i can't get past this i can't use the phone.

changing to the last good backup does not fix this.

I've had to do a factory format and reinstall to get back to a working phone. Though it occurred to me in the middle of the process i could remove the sim and change the settings back.

anyone know what's going on? I suspect it may have something to do with fonts but have nothing to base that on.

thanks

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
In windows, I'd use a partition; in android, are there any folders (like /boot?) that are not deleted after I flash factory images (wiping data obviously)?

I'd like to know this because I have a lot of music, and don't want to have to re-copy it to my phone every time I flash it. (unfortunately N5 does not support sd cards)

My intention was to copy the music to /smth, will it get wiped?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
There are only 1 partition which has a filesystem and does not get wiped after the factory reset. But it is only a 16 mb partition with a free space of 10 mb. It is mounted as /persist
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
No way to chance its size? I really need to backup my music somewhere in the phone and not have to copy it back every time!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
There is, but complicated. Because of its location on the emmc you have to edit 6-8 partitions or more. And if there is something which uses the emmc in raw mode and not by the partitions then you could have problems. You will also lose the ability to flash stock rom.

The whole thing is unecessary if you are using twrp recovery and not cwm, because twrp will not fotmat the /data partition. It will just remove every folder and file except the /data/media/0 folder which contains all the files you have on the internal storage.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
You mean that if I install twrp recovery and then flash a stock factory image ( or for instance cyanogenmod 12) I won't lose /data/media/0 folder anymore?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
No.

If you do factory reset in twrp then it will not delete that folder. It will not protrect you if you flash stock rom with fastboot with wipe.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
Flashing without wipe will keep my applications and everything, so it's usually just useless ( not worth ); and flashing with wipe will delete any folders. Are you saying there's no way :/
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
Listen. If you use TWRP and do WIPE in TWRP it will not delete /data/media/0 folder. So with twrp you can flash roms with wipes without worrying to lose your music and pictures.

If you flash stock rom with fastoot you lose everything.

If you flash rom with wipe in cwm you lose everything.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
Nice! This is very useful, I didn't know it was possible to flash factory images through a recovery; so I'll just have to move my music there and it'll stay forever. Just asking now, what will happen to the recovery (which should be stored in /recovery?) if I flash with fastboot, will it get wiped aswell? Thank you so much for your answers ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
That /data/media/0 folder is the folder of the internal storage. So your music is already there. To flash stock rom in twrp recovery you will need a flashable zip version of the stock rom. These does not contains recovery image so twrp will persist.

You cant flash stock rom from google's site in twrp.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
Ah well it's not a solution then.. The /recovery folder gets wiped with fastboot -w?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
Its complicated. That recovery folder if it exists, on stock roms there arent any folder called recovery, is a temporary folder. It is extracted from the kernel's ramdisk. As the its name says it is a ramdisk so if you turn off your phone it is gone and all its content.

Get a stock rom in a flashable zip. Do a wipe in twrp and flash the stock rom.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfs15:
Yeah, I think I'll do so, thanks a lot ;)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastienbo:
Hi Guys, I have problems with my \system partition, it's almost filled for 90% and I moved almost everything out of that partition by converting it to user apps...

My current Note 3 (32gb) config is:

/System : 2,21

I want to use 1 gb from my /data partition to be part of my System partition so that I have 3,21gb and my data partition 25,36

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastienbo:
Partitionning is not magic or sorcery

I do it all the time with devices of 2000+ euro

It's just that with android it's a bit new to me, but everybody that has used a pit file to flash their custom rom also has partitioned, so it's not really a biggie and it is done frequently.

In my case I have 650 apps and nothing is on the system partition but for some reason I still get up to 2gb of the system partition...

I therefore suspect that each app has maybe some cache or configuration that is anyway stored on the \system partition, or maybe it's the photo app , i know that the thumbnail cache can also grow enormously

You could start by removing all the languages and csc's you don't need, also all tts files, etc.. i could easily have 900mb+ free in my system partition if i removed some more stuff i didn't need. For example i added the Samsung UK high quality tts voice files into my system partition, it was around 120mb.

Messing with your device's partition table is entirely unnecessary, and just asking for a brick. But hey, if you want to go for it, more power to you. Just don't come crying back here when you're left with a paperweight.

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. CWM is not well supported anymore and most developers recommend TWRP. Make a nandroid in cwm then try flashing the rom in it. If it fails you can restore your android. You can also ask any questions in this thread, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2276094

[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] setmov:
Thank you for your useful feedbacks.

PLEASE, DO READ OP COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY BEFORE ASKING ANY QUESTIONS, ANSWERS TO MOST PROBLEMS ARE THERE

WHY DO WE USE A 4.3 ROM AS BASE INSTEAD OF THE LATEST 4.4.2?

Because when it comes to privacy Kit Kat 4.4.x is a complete disaster, the newer the android version the more buit-in spying there is (and the more difficult it is to remove it), despite google's sweet talk about "enhanced user's experience.

Lollipop seems to be even worse, but that's another story.

And NO, not anyone can hack into your phone, but many can and google already did it!

[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] wrishaba:
Thanks for your valient efforts.

But most of the phones would have been upgraded

to k.k. and downgrading them to 4.3 is rather risky.

Even I wonder whether I can downgrade to 4.3 add you rightly mentioned

about 4.4 and 5 android versions.

Even then I will try to down grade to 4.3 and also

try this room. I am willing to take the risk for the developer.

Thank you for your support. With this attitude you are definitely repaying every effort made.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] unclefab:
I really dislike 4.4 because it s full of spying, but on the other hand I definitely could build a 4.4 rom for the Grand 2 cuz I can understand that not many people want to take the risk to downgrade.

The only problem is that I don t own the phone, and that the person I borrowed it from doesn t want me to install 4.4 on it, because of knox and because 4.3 runs well.

One thing you have to bear in mind is that latest android version doesn t mean best version, and since 4.1 it s actually been quite the opposite.

Google install 2-3 gimmicks to "enhance users' experience" bla bla, and at the same time strengthens its grip on android.

It got particularly bad with 4.4, and I read reports that it went even worse with 5x:(...
[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] Laurisss:
spying? Meh. 80% of people are on kitkat and a few are on lollipop. No reports of something hack-ish.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] unclefab:
Most people don t realise they are being spyied.

Do one test.

Download network log from here:

https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=network+log&fdid=com.googlecode.networklog

Install it, open it, give it root access and start logging by clicking "logging on" on the top.

Then do some browsing, going to this or that site, but don t go to any google related web site (no search, no youtube etc.).

Come back to network log, you will see that your phone connected to many funny addresses, including of course google, and that quite a lot of data has been transfered both inbound and outbound.

That s just a small test, there s actually much more than that but you ll get the idea.

You could make another test with xprivacy, and if you do so you ll see that all apps request various private data like ids and cell towers location.

The thing is that the higher the android version the more difficult it is to prevent that data mining, data mining that is little more than spying by looking over your shoulder.

Una roms have been designed to prevent that, and more (see OP), but it s up to everybody to install it or not.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] kuldude:
I really appreciate your Hard work , I can imagine how much hard work you would have done by working on a phone which you do not own , borrowing it again and again , testing the ROM on someone else's phone and the fear of bricking it . But as someone mentioned in the thread many users are on 4.4 . Many here fear bricking there devices while downgrading it. The mere fact that you have to downgrade your device to use the ROM is what cause of lack of users . personally I really liked what your ROM offers. Just to help you for further development H6 is the most stable and without Knox count firmware. Some 60-70 % users who flash custom ROM are on this firmware and even many custom Roms use it as a base . Hope to see this ROM on kk .

Best of luck.
