The "Using my own secret Optimization.... " kind of rubs me a bit the wrong way...

You are using tons of improvements, hacks, stuff others have done, while you self don't share back with the community. How about being open and saying what those optimizations are... or if not then leave out all the stuff where you are using other people's optimizations which they shared back with the community. Would be nothing but fair.

Roman letters in Phone dial pad

Has anyone else noticed the roman letters? I selected my location and it fixes it for a little while and then it goes back. I would like to learn them but not when I'm in the middle of trying to find an important phone number.

Was kinda cool (at first).
[G1 Android Development] mikeyxmike:
is there anyway for me to re-enable the status bar (i think thats what its called) so that it isn't transparent anymore? im talking about the little pull down bar that used to be visible during the lock screen. i think that made the hero rom look pretty cool.
[G1 Android Development] amirnew:
i'm starting to get alot of htc screens on the 1.7 version mainly after using the browser for some time.beside that it works very well!

Peep is fine, dunno about stock dont use(removed)

on peep does it even load other people tweets? try setting>send&recieve>check frequency on peep
[G1 Android Development] ArionRickAllen:
Hum... will need to try this.. have you noticed the romen letters?

I wonder if the phone prioritizer has any ability to alter the alarm clock function?
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Like someone above me said, follow the to the settings of peet (twitter) and go to "update frequency" and set to "Manual" or "Never" which-ever is there.

**If you do a search, I put up the commands to remove STOCKS and TWITTER**

DO ME A HUGE FAVOR (since you are the 3rd or 4th person to say this and no one has tried and gotten back to me)...try out "blacked out" or "NWg" on this thread and send me a PM if it stops happening so I can send KingxKx the fix for this problem.

Send me a PM and I'll do it tonight when I get home. You just want the white-NON-transparent one back right? I can do any color/look you request.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
hey lyc sup bro. can you put your theme for blacked out 1.7 back up? i want to flash that one because 1.7 is gold and im not updating from this lol.and King PLEASE DONT PUT BFS 300 nor the Ramhack back please!!! those were a freggin nightmare lol.. those damn black screens.. and it taking 5 mins for the screen to cut back on from sleep.. :o
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Also quick question for anyone using the default KingxKx Hero build (not my themed one)...

Do you have the transparent lock screen?
[G1 Android Development] ezzieyguywuf:
I'm with you. This doesn't really seem to be in the spirit of open source at all. Or even in the spririt of the great community that you guys have here.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
for the last one i think hes talking about the arc on the lockscreen since its not here anymore
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Yep and Lovin it.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Couldnt have been said better bro.
[G1 Android Development] ArionRickAllen:
OK! I have been reading the threads and have not read anything about this issue. I can't right now, will find some time tonight to research this more.
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Here you go bro...B_O_v1.7_Lycoln_This_KingxKx
[G1 Android Development] jdscully:
Also my phone isn't ringing "most" the time.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Thx a bunch :D
[G1 Android Development] deeb215:
i have the transparent lockscreen on mines. I'm waiting on the Red Rosie. Could you put a red arc on that lockscreen as well as a red hover? that would look so sweet! :)

Edit: Can you link me to where i can find out about removing the stock app and peep?
[G1 Android Development] Datblkbro:
I Have a question Im using the red rosie theme 1.8. Everything running smooth and working fine. One issue tho I have notice a real long delay when my phone is being called b4 it rings.. Like if I use my home phone to call its rings for about 15sec b4 I hear the ring tone on my phone.

Any Help would be appreciated
[G1 Android Development] deeb215:
anyone get the sprint tv to work on Kings 1.8? if yes, how so? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] deeb215:
Yo bro did you start the phone prioritizing app? that fixed this problem for me
[G1 Android Development] Datblkbro:
No I did not, I had no Idea wat dat app was for.. If u can explain a lil more Ill do it...

Thanks btw
[G1 Android Development] deeb215:
no problem i feel your pain, just go to your app drawer press on the Phone Prioritizer App (it has a grey box for an icon). Click on "Start Priority Change Service" and you should be good to go. btw give it a call to test out.

EDIT: If you get a prompt before this screen comes up, press always allow then follow the steps above.
[G1 Android Development] Riley1524:
You just start the app and it optimizes the phone and music app. I think you have to start the app everytime you reboot the phone, but it works well none the less
[G1 Android Development] Riley1524:
I can also confirm that I'm not getting any audible tones, ringer or notifications and the alarm clock doesn't activate after a 10 min time frame from being set.
[G1 Android Development] jdscully:
I did some testing this morning and its all notifications. After not using the phone for a while I do not get a notification on email, txt messages, etc. I have sat here and watching the phone come on with an incoming call and it never rings. If I unlock the phone and then put it back in to sleep mode I can call and it will ring right away.

I think I am only starting to notice this because most the flashing was over the weekend/my days off, so I wasn't using the alarm. Plus I tend to play with the phone after a flash (almost never put it down), but now I have had this build for a couple days its back to normal again and starting to realize a couple issues.

FYI - I did a complete format of the SD card / Wipes / etc before I flashed this .. so it was a clean install.
[G1 Android Development] Datblkbro:
Thanks man followed the steps. gave it a test call and it still have the delay.. I counted it was like 15-18sec b4 my phone started ringing.. Should I try reflashing the rom and right as everything loads do those steps again..
[G1 Android Development] love1785:
Same issues I have been having since 1.7...and I also had a clean install. Also tried to re format the card and wipe the reflash but no luck. :confused:
[G1 Android Development] bolmedias:
Out of interest, is there any particular reason why you've left the Launcher.apk in the ROM? It's not used, so why keep it there?
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
LOVING this ROM king! Awesome work! By the way, is there a way to install the phone prioritzer..can you post a link just for that apk?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
It's already on my ROM... Just run the phone priortizer app and press "start priority settings" or whatever it is

hope this helps :)
[G1 Android Development] falcon72:
Hey I just wonder why there are 2 music player in 1.8 ?
[G1 Android Development] Mookie_Jones:
I had this working really well last night and couldnt leave well enough alone so i loaded in the themed one. ive reformatted my sdcard, etc and stuff..

so i guess my question is.. with this specific rom, how do you have your sd partitioned?

I ask because some use 32 swap with compcache enabled or theres people using 150mb of linux-swap..

im just trying to figure out the best settings and i find it hard to believe that its on a phone by phone basis.

i was crashing my mms and messaging like crazy yesterday but then when i turned compcache off and linux swap on with 80 swappiness, it was good. but ive long ago messed that up.
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
i know, but my friend, who I got in to the G1 and your rom =p, was playing around and unistalled it for whatever reason and now he wants it back LOL! He doesn't want to reflash and whatnot hence why I ask :)
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
i think you would put it onto your SD after unzipping the 1.8. it's in data then app_s with the other apps i think... yeah go to terminal then

su

rwsystem

install (name of app here.apk) /system/sd/app_s

that should be all
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ok: if you're using swap, the best settings are to have your swap partition at 150-169mb while your backing swap settings are 18 memlimit and 60 swappiness.

if you wanna try only compcache without a swap partition, DON'T yet... it always seems to give a loading screen at the browser and there doesn't seem to be a good way to get it to work just yet. although it seems to be 96 disksize and idk ideal swappiness yet.
[G1 Android Development] Mookie_Jones:
see this is where i get confused because to e honest, ive been following your words because ive seen you give others advice... i was just in the process of going with your settings of 100 swapiness..
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
I know, but the only problem is I don't know where the phone prioritizer app i located :)
[G1 Android Development] Mookie_Jones:
wait, let me ask another dumb question.. am i to use compcache and linux swap at the same time? ..

I know these may be elementary questions to some of you but im sure that it has to help someone else along the way.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
the more questions the better. i personally ask like a million questions at school lol. i'm 14, a junior. they get annoyed with so many question ;) although when people ask me questions i know my explanations aren't always the best :/ but i try.

um you could use compcache and linux swap together if you want. i've heard that a few people had some crazy performance with it. i personally would just use compcache and backing swap.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ooh wow. dude just download the full rom again and unzip it then find the phone prioritizer app in data app_s
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
oh ok sorry about that :/ i do that to people alot... but ok let me try again: use 169mb for your swap partition, then put 60 swappiness and 18 memlimit in the compcache section of your user.conf making sure linux swap is off. hope it works :)
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Flashed 1.8 and the Rosie was all wiggin' out.... I'm really weird about that. =p

Guess there's always 1.1 if you want a super quick homescreen! =D

Never had any complaints with 1.1 so I'm recommending it to a lot of people. =)
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Lol theres more to a fast phone than swiping across your home screen for no reason.

1.8 is far more optimized, has newer BFS, and is just overall a faster experience. Rosie may not swipe as quick all the time but its a trade off for productivity

My build needs like 10 minutes after flash to get settled in btw

:D
[G1 Android Development] jdscully:
Hey King,

Have you experienced any of the notification issues?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
No, I havent.

on a side note, I think 1.9 may have either swap or cc with backing swap.... CC alone just doesnt seem to do it...

1.9 will also have more optimization on the ones that do not have it among a couple other things :D
[G1 Android Development] adelco93:
wow, we have a genius here, 14 and already a junior.
[G1 Android Development] njgheewala:
I second that, I am trying to figure out the CC and swap thing my self. At this point I don't do anything after I flash the ROM...I just sort of flash and deal with any issue and hope that the next one is better then this one...no question about the ROM that it is the best I have ever used so far. If I can learn the whole process of understand the CC and swap thing I might be a better help to this community also...:eek:
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Dude! WTF are you telling the noob to do?!

First, you can't have both CC and Swap running at the same time. Pick one. Personally, I like CC+backing swap (which utilized the swap partition).

As for swap size, look at whatever King recommends. On some ROMs, 96mb is recommended, while on others people suggest 64mb. Use whatever the DEV says to use. More is not always better, and in some cases will actually slow your phone down!

If you really mean what you say, then spend the next several day studying the numerous threads on CC, swap, etc. Asking about them in threads for ROMs will get you, at best, a good answer here and there (though likely not overly detailed), and at worst, responses like the Prince here. Now go forth and read.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
OMG man i was just saying i had heard of some people who had used linux swap and compcache with no problems -.- i didn't tell him to actually use it, just to try it if he wanted to. i personally wouldn't. is there something wrong with that? i too prefer backing swap. more isn't always better... but i've definitely tried different sizes and swappinesses and found the settings i suggested to be best with this rom... those were the only settings where i didn't get a loading screen when using the browser heavily or for a long time... i know my explanations aren't the best but i wouldn't say they're the worst responses ever either... at least i give info too...
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Giving info is good... but giving incorrect info is bad. I'm not saying you shouldn't run CC and swap together... I'm telling you that you CAN'T. If you set CC and swap on in the user.conf, CC won't work. Gotta pick one or the other.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
correction: in the user.conf it only says that you can't run backing swap and linux swap at the same time... you can run the compcache with linux swap just not the backing swap part. i think? lol there's always space to learn. the main reason i started posting here to ask questions and learn... so if i'm putting something wrong please tell me. and if i debate with you i just wanna clarify :) jus sayin

i try to answer with the little info i have of linux/android from this forum :D linux is way crazy man. i'm seriously wanting to go into computer science, like more software dev side
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Can someone tell me where I can get the Phone prioritizer apk?

I need it. Please let me know how I can get it. I do not want to re-install the ROM. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
download the rom, unzip it, open the data then app folder and it should be there... and also check app_s idk what it will be called though... then put onto your sd and cp (app.apk) /system/sd/app or app_s not sure from terminal
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
1.8 is amazingly fast!!! :eek: Every single version before that are slower than this.

I am amazed, if I can get my hands on a class 6 card, then I will run it with backing swap at 64mb partition.
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Thanks, Do I need to run the Phone Prioritizer app every time or it runs automatically?

There are two processes when I check it in the task manager, is that normal?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yeah that's what i've noticed too... so seems to be normal. every boot as there doesn't seem to be an option for setting it automatically
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Or...

go to terminal and type

su

mkdir /data/opt

Then put the attached file on the root of your sd

then

cp /sdcard/autostart.txt /data/opt/autostart.sh

then just download the app called autostart (root) from the market and it will run that script at boot every time which is basically the phone prioritizer app without the app.
[G1 Android Development] Krazi Bluntz:
Can you please put back the old HeroLed app King from 1.6 or does anyone have the apk? ... the new one only works with the messages it doesnt show a light when its charging or blinks when I get a call or miss a call; you cant even pick the color of the led :/ ...
[G1 Android Development] deeb215:
it blinks on my phone calls and the charge light is blue then green when full. never messed with changing the preference tho...
[G1 Android Development] michagol2:
Cant seem to get my Alarms to go off no matter what I do. Is anyone experiencing this problem, is there a solution?
[G1 Android Development] falcon72:
hey King can you share your user.conf so that way we can have the corrected setting for us
[G1 Android Development] Dalamar1320:
JAguirre,

Awesome Info!

Download "missed call" from the market and set your own colors and settings. If you need the old heroled.apk let me know and I can send it to you.
[G1 Android Development] shorty52732:
Quick couple of questions, prolly not the right place to ask, but i just flashed this ROM, and got it working flawlessly, so i thought id put um here....I was having a problem, it wouldn't reboot the second i installed a few apps from market place, so i only wiped the ext, then fixed ext because i remember seeing that's where the apps install, but after that it booted and was running perfect again, but my apps were still there!! so where in the hell does it install the apps to then? cause this has A2SD right?
[G1 Android Development] micahansel:
info for recent rosie roms

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me with this rom or another rosie rom. I just came

Over from using enomthers 1.6 aosp. Quick it was but no GUI. I was so excited for rosie and waited for the bugs to get worked out. Bottom line is. This phone is not functional. Its horrible. I feel like im doing something wrong. I have a 16 gb card claas 6 with the 3 partitions. I even tried the app to set cpu speed. I dont even know if i can go back to those builds with having the 1.33.2005?...haykuros spl. Please please help. is there a rosie build with 1.6. Like with the new market? Anyways i would love feedback or a PM.
[G1 Android Development] Mookie_Jones:
ok..

so clarify something for me.. you currently do have enomthers 1.6 flashed or you have kingxkxrom flashed?

Ill ask all the other questions as well

did you wipe your phone/ext?

is your sdcard setup as suggested?

im only asking because someone has probably beat me to it.
[G1 Android Development] bigchi2000:
LOADING SCREENS EVERYWHERE!!!

Can somebody please recommend me some user.conf settings or their user.conf configuration. I'm sure thats the reason for the loading screens. Just flashed the rom 2 days ago and its already showing signs of instability. I'm using the default user.conf
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
that's because compcache gets filled up quickly. plus it's set at like 100 swappiness fast at first but after a day if not rebooted or under heavy use slows to a crawl. i'm using linux-swap at 80 swappiness at it is fast.. plus i only have a 64meg swap partition set up... and i run real quick
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Way ahead of you. I already checked there, hence why I asked.
[G1 Android Development] Mookie_Jones:

That was exactly how my phone was on when I picked blue in the heroled prefeneces app ... I don't like the missed call app I was using that before the devs started putting it in there roms; it makes my phone not ring when I'm receiving calls it just blinks the led and it doesnt show who called me in my phone log :/ or its lags and my phone only rings brief

I still couldn't find it there; could you please upload it?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ok cool lol :) yeah i wouldn't know... ask KK i guess
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
try 95 disksize and 45 swappiness without backing swap and let me know if it's any better?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Fans-

sorry I havent been as active as usual in here.

Im currently working on a sprint hero port and am pretty close to getting it finally.

Anyway just wanted to let you all know Im still here, and 1.9 will have more optimization among other things. It will most likely use CC WITH backing. Apparently CC alone still cant handle hero. Anyway love you all :D
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
eh it might. what swappiness was in the default again? try 95 disksize and 45 swappiness. it seems to be the best. right now trying MLIGN's 2.5.3 and Rosie's snappy and there's some interesting transitions but it feels artificially fast on Rosie and idk why i feel that way... but i like the feel of yours better... :) plus i can test compcache just fine XD lol

EDIT: question when should we expect 1.9? maybe i should just flash 1.8 for now...
[G1 Android Development] chrisharang:
To clarify, when you say this, do you really mean "swappiness" or "cc_swappiness"? Sometimes I think some people (including myself) get them confused.

- Chris
[G1 Android Development] micahansel:
I have flashed various roms over 30 times probably. I used Amon ra's 1.2.3 automatic ext2 and linux-swap format. I have kingklicks 1.8 rom. Everything has been wiped, rewiped, and wiped, and i have checked in the console that my sd card is working with ext3 with linux-swap. So I would still love any suggestions. Today has been a really long day on top of a super slow slow slow phone. I don't know what to do. I takes forever like from 10 seconds to actually minutes to process commands!

My last rom without Rosie took not even once second to process the hardest of commands. I mean you click its there. I am just looking for Rosie to offer something at least that takes only a few moments to process a command.

Again, much thanks to whoever tackles my problem.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
oh ok sorry. memlimit is for backing swap so i thought most people would find it implied...

but yes i mean cc_swappiness
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
1.9

King, when should we expect 1.9?
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
I tried them all, King's rom is the best for daily use. Well balance and stable. Thank you King for your hard work. Keep it up.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yes, i must agree :) although i can't wait for 1.9 :D
[G1 Android Development] clone132:
I myself had a problem with my phone being sluggish with this rom but, not to the extent you are experiencing. The only thing I could suggest it to limit the amount of widgets you have on your home screens. I initially started out utilizing all seven screens with HTC widgets and that wreaked havoc with the speed. Lauching an app took at least 10 seconds not to mention the app being unresponsive because of the time it takes to process a command. So I decided to minimize the amount of widgets I have on my home screens and after that my phone started working fine.

I hope this helps or at least give you some idea as to where to start.
