[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strangethingz:
480 x 320 screen resolution helps with the prcoessing needs... and compiz is highly configurable... I'll bet if the app (or one inspired by compiz) could be made to run on Android, it would be a matter of adjusting the right modest settings...

People don't buy iPhones for the battery life, and they don't even buy iPhones for the phone. The phone is like the cherry on top. They buy iPhones for the pure eye candy bliss.

All I'm saying is... don't under estimate the value of eye candy in the consumer market, and if Android had a compiz like app it would kill the iPhone on eye candy.

I want windows transitions to explode into flames, or fade in and out, or spin out of sight (similar to the page 1/page 2 transition for the 'toggle settings' app)... I want the desktop to be a rotating cube with 4 to 6 virtual desktops that spins as fast as I can slide my finger across the screen and eventually come to a smooth stop.

Just saying... it would kill the iPhone. Kill it. And it would sell a lot of G1s.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beartard:
Doesn't compiz require x-windows to work?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimath:
Exactly, I had the same question.

What is the android window environment? It's not an x-windows, is it?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strangethingz:
Good question, I don't know... but even so, seems like there could be a way to do it.

Like the existing swipey desktop... if it could be made into a revolving cube with 4 sides. And then to add widgets to any of the 4 virtual desktops (in the same way that we have 3 virtual desktops now)

I ask this all from a very humble, non-developer position... Just wanted to plant the seed in case there were any developers who thought it might be possible.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ieatlint:
Android runs on the framebuffer -- there is no X.

The hardware acceleration for graphics is being used (videos wouldn't play without it, for instance). Comparatively, it's probably something like an old TNT graphics card (but with hardware acceleration for h264 and such).

There's a tiny chance in hell it could pull off very basic compiz features... but it would hose the system... (and require that you run X -- which would require you installing your own software base separate from and without Android).

No one's going to put in the effort for methinks, especially when it would so cripple the phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
My thoughts exactly. Another thing I thought of is that the vast majority of compiz effects have to do with windows and the G1 doesn't really have separate windows so I don't see how it would work. Desktop Cube might be possible and maybe some fancier animation for bringing up programs but aside from that, I don't even see what compiz effects would be applicable.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strangethingz:
I think Cube Desktop (with rotation speed determined by how fast your finger slides across the screen) and windows transitions (burn, spin, flip, fade, slide etc) would be a great place to start! :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRAY-4:
Well since android is OPEN SOURCE we could create a compiz for android using the window management libraries that we will also need to create and build this ontop of cyanogenmod
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmotyka:
The cube animation is offered in rogros82's home replacement on the market called GDE, I'M CURRENTLY USING IT, the best home replacement app to date!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurnted:
Have to agree there aren't many of the compiz effects that would apply to the Android world. Cube/Sphere desktop & window animations are really about it. As far as that goes GDE (launcher replacement) does most of what makes sense to adopt from compiz. I have been using it for about a week & it uses 2% battery on average. The application dock it comes with is nice too.

If someone wanted to look into making their own compiz-like effects, You could start by digging around OMS code to see how they got cube and all working. Like I said though most of it has been done already, and is just a few bucks on the market.

:D You beat me to it. GDE is a great app though. Being able to switch themes easily is also a nice feature.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timvb:
GDE running now looks great.!

eats my battery i think but nice 2 have
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philosophics:
Well I know the Samsung Behold 2 has an inside cube animation effect with it's home/launcher but I wouldn't know how to pull it from the SB2 and port it to the Dream.

That's just an idea for the devs...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDexter1111:
GO Launcher EX

GO Launcher EX has the cube animations built in it's effects for home screen and app drawer.. It works well
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philosophics:
So does ADW EX.

Great way to bring a thread back from the grave...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
The ZTE Avid N9120 has this cube. As you add apps, the cube expands the total number of sides it has .

Metropcs offers this phone via best buy and other sources.. worth every penny.

You can extract the cube to a desktop and add it to every phone on earth.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaileion:
How Awesome Would This Be?!

Compiz on the Galaxy Note 3 or 4 and the Galaxy Edge!? With some special effects that run down the edge of the Edge. That would be fantastic! I personally love cosmetic stuff. Themes, status bar mods from xuimod, or Wanam Exposed. Now if someone could rebuild compiz with burn and cube and wave and wobbly windows! Let me just include one more exclamation point to express my enthusiasm!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] EranNavick:
A quick question. Got my ZFOLD last afternoon, and have reset my LTE watch 4 . It connected with the new phone. I then tried to add watch maker on the watch ( using Play -> APPS on your phone) and there is no way to load to the watch the app.. Any idea how to resolve. I have dozens of purchased faces with Watch maker.. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
Just goto the watch, play store, apps on device, install.

Works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] EranNavick:
Watch is not there.. The apps on phone are displayed alphabetically on the watch, ending with Spotify.. No Watch maker. I think it is because my watch is on a beta OS version (I am a beta tester)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
Odd, search for it in the play store on the watch then.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] EranNavick:
Problem solved.. The culprit was in restoring a backup from the S20+ phone.. it had a BT 'connection' from the old phone. Had to delete all old BT 'imported' definitions, and reset the phone, and go with a clean pairing, no restore. Watch face showed up on the watch to install..

However - first trial to downloads failed.. timed out because the watch was restoring other apps.. so I had to wait until the BT link was not at 100% utilization. Now I have watch maker on the watch... Phew.. Thanks anyways.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] carltmac:
I have searched for lag, slow , over clock, precessor and a bunch of other thing's and I can't find where I can find out why the hell my Kaiser is running slow as hell? Like I can't even friggin type sometimes? I close all of the program's and such and it still lag's out. I am wondering if there is a over clock program like there is for the EXCALIBER and or a ROM that people know of that is VERY fast with Window's Live and just simple stuff like that?

Please don't respond with SEARCH, I clearly have and haven't found anything that has to do with it in the title.

Thank you ahead of time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Try These

Hello carltmac,

From what I've heard, it is not possible to overclock the Kaiser's processor at this time, simply because nobody has written any software to do this. What you can try is this task manager to see if any unnecessary programs are running, and then check your \Windows\Startup folder to see what unnecessary programs are running on startup. You can also download Cleartemp, which I like. All these programs are free. Hope this has all helped,

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JimmyMcGee:
Our friend jockey has brought up a Kaiser Overclocking Discussion thread in the past. From what I can tell the Kaiser Processor it Maxed out and is not worth Overclocking.

In fact here it is. Did a quick search and found it.

[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] lightingman117:
Ever since upgrading to 12 on my Verizon Android 12 the phone has been sluggish and glitchy.

Every single thing opens slowly or is unresponsive for a bit.

I had no issues on Android 11.

I tried resetting the phone and without restoring the phone is still sluggish (though a bit better).

Apps launch slowly and the overall snappiness of the phone is very bad.

Is there a way to downgrade to Android 11?
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] forgiven90:
Same here!! I've been searching for a fix... Don't seem to be an easy one available yet..?
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] lightingman117:
After the phone quit downloading all the crapware the phone got much faster on Android 12 (after the reset).

I'd still rather download and install the 11 ROM. But it is 3GB and the lgup download location is transferring at 10kbps so it's gonna take a week or two to download lol.

See my cross-post here:

Android 12 on V50 is terrible

I upgraded a month or so ago. The phone became sluggish and glitchy apps took forever to launch scrolling Facebook became jittery. Terrible update. I then finally backed up my phone and reset it. Now the fresh install is randomly installing apps. I am so sick of android/Verizon installing...

[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] lightingman117:
Welp.

I had major problems with g'board after the android 12 os upgrade.

I tried using a separate keyboard; it wasn't better.

keyboard would refuse to launch in my messenger+ app amongst other apps.

Later, once I reset the phone to factory the keyboard problem was reduced. But it has slowly grown in frequency until I had to uninstall g'board and use LG keyboard. That worked for a bit, until the same thing happened. I now have zero keyboards that show up when I am trying to type a message.

Yay thanks Android12/LG :((( Booo stupid update is bad.

hi,

does anyone know how to fix this?
[General Topics] gronostaj:
Check this font's name (using Word) and find all *.ttf files using Total Commander CE. Find this font's file and:

a) if it's in \Windows, move it to \Windows\Fonts

b) if it's in \Windows\Fonts, move it to \Windows

After reboot everything should be ok.

I flashed this ROM with no real issues - I didn't use the TWRP Recovery suggested, but the latest version of OrangeFox and everything seemed to work fine (although I have noticed when returning to OF Recovery, it says something about "failed to mount" when I try to wipe cache & dalvik)

When I long press on the Home screen to access Launcher settings, and then select Developer options, it reports that QuickStep crashed & returns me to the Home screen.

I'm guessing I can't change the Home screen grid size? Can't get rid of that hideous Google Search bar? And can't get rid of that annoying wide 'pill' thing at the bottom of the screen? If I use a custom Launcher, presumably I lose my system wide gesture navigation?

The screen magnification seems rather large, even on its 'smallest' setting.

So far, apart from the above, everything seems to be working well & fast.

hi, is it normal to reboot to recovery after flashing the rom (dirty flash) ?.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] AlobarN:
Dirty flashing is ONLY suggested for a weekly trivial update on the same ROM. Changing ROMs, and API level in this case, it is unfathomable to expect to have a working phone with a dirty flash. Even if it boots, which it probably won't, as in your case, the end result will certainly not be what it is supposed to be. You'll end up with a lagfest and apps closing, and then blame it on the ROM...

So , yes, it is normal that your phone won't boot.. Clean flash, formating data by typing "yes" and using the latest beta recovery is the way to go in order to have the latest Android a couple of weeks after Google releases it. We've come a long way... Porting used to take 6 months...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Hans_Werner:
Nice custom rom. Really smooth with good bb. No deep sleep bug while bluetooth on.

The only rom where volte and vowifi works out of the box without problems (germany)

Haven't found heavy bugs while one day of using. Excelent. Keep going!

EDIT: After a while "camera lost connection error". Only reboot helps to solve the issues
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] smithbill:
I'm also seeing some camera issues. Opening the stock camera app sometimes results in a "can't connect to camera" error. If I dismiss the camera app & reopen it, I then see a camera image but it's frozen, dismiss & reopen, it's an updated image but frozen again. It takes several attempts to get a working camera image.

Also, I seem to be having trouble updating apps (possibly only Google apps?) in the Playstore - the downloads get stuck at various X% and I have to cancel & try again multiple times (it's not my internet which is working fine). I've tried clearing Playstore cache & data, but it hasn't helped.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] gcoutinho023:
I also had this camera issue both in arrow 11 and 12 but it almost never happens in arrow 12

Also can someone tell me how this rom preforms? (bugs, fluidity, battery life, etc)

Im currently using arrow os 12 and it is pretty good so i was wondering if i could update it to 13 now or wait for a more stable release
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] smithbill:
I've found this ROM to be remarkably smooth, fluid & stable. Although I admit I haven't used my Redmi Note 7 much as it's now a 'backup' phone. But anytime I've picked up the handset with this ROM on, it's been working fine.

There are obviously a few camera issues, but they don't seem to occur that often.

I'm still a little unsure about battery life - at first it seemed fine, but lately I've started noticing that when the phone has simply been left on standby all day (no active use) that by the end of the day it's down from 100% to say 30% which seems rather excessive for being on standby (handset isn't warm at all though).

Hi there,

I want to try this ROM, but I would prefer to install it without GApps. Is it possible to upload a Vanilla Version of it, so I can use MicroG instead of GApps?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] gcoutinho023:
Oh i see, i would like to hear from more people their opinion on the battery life because i still use it as my only phone and so it is pretty important to me. Thanks tho :)

(Also, could it be that you left the bluetooth on? I read that some android 12 roms had problems with the deep sleep while the bluetooth was on, i dont know if it could be the case)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] smithbill:
I checked my RedmiNote7 before going to bed last night. It was at 84% battery & Bluetooth/WiFi/4G data were all off (GPS location service was on). The phone was not plugged in to charge. Approximately 8hrs later when I woke up (so the phone wasn't even touched all night) the battery was down to approx. 48%

The GSam battery info (screenshot attached) seems to indicate this is all down to Kernel & Android System (the handset wasn't warm).View attachment 5707625

He everybody,

First of all I want to thank team Arrows to make my note 7 revival.

I update to the last version after wiping the all phone. Please give a procedure to update version with TWRP (no live update avaleble).

On this version I find anymore "unlock by fingerprint". Will you show me wich menu, I have to use?

Thanks for answer
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] smithbill:
I tried dirty-flashing the latest update (20220916-GAPPS) but ran into some problems & phone kept rebooting to Recovery. However, this might be because I'm using OrangeFox (beta@R11.1_3_2_A12) rather than TWRP. I ended up having to Format Data and installing from scratch.

I also found that while in OrangeFox I could not mount the partition with my 'emulated' storage card (is this the Data partition?) so the only way I could flash the ROM & Magisk, was to plug in a USB_OTG and mount that. I'm assuming this is an OrangeFox problem and if I used the recommended TWRP I wouldn't have this problem?

Once flashed & Magisk installed & everything setup, it seems to work smoothly & cool. SmartPack Kernel Manager seems to show Big & Little CPUs working up/down & switching themselves down when not needed. Battery life is very good & performance seems very good.

So far I've notice 3 issues:

1. Camera image freezes on opening camera app quite often. I have to close/re-open the camera app a few times & then it seems to behave.

2. You can add Fingerprints to security, but you cannot select Fingerprint unlock - it's just not one of the available options (only PIN, pattern, slide etc)

3. I use the MacroDroid app to 'chime' every hour on the hour, but accuracy is poor (even with the app not battery 'optimised'). It often chimes a few minutes late. Could this be because it's in a deep sleep & affects alarm timings?

When I dismiss/minimise an app that supports Picture-in-Picture (PIP) mode, it shows that app in a tiny window. But it tells me it's "trial 1 of 3" and after the 3rd go, it says "Picture-in-Picture is only available in PRO mode". What is "PRO" mode and how do you enable PRO mode?

Although I have noticed that the "trial" PIP keeps restarting and you again get "trial 1 of 3"
