[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hardcore:
OCLF minfree settings, minfreemanager and autokiller all do the same thing - they change the same configuration file that controls Android's memory management tool.

I agree though, that the optimal amount of free RAM seems to be 60M-70M on our phones. The default configuration in the Samsung Froyo firmwares set it to about 40M-50M (the last 3 values in minfree are 40/44/48 by default).

And also, it is a misconception that "free" RAM in Linux is wasted. The free RAM is not unused, but is used by the OS to cache the disks, which is why the phone is faster with more free RAM. On our Samsungs this has a huge effect because RFS is slow and a big disk cache will help it a lot.

You can see this by doing:

# cat /proc/meminfo

5 big Widgets at Homescreen, 12 Apps opened (ICQ, Google Mail, Browser, MP3-Player, Touiteur, Titanium Backup, XDA, Market, ES File Explorer, YouTube and so on), 90mb free ram and the Phone is still running smooth.

Don´t know what you´re doing wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtrememorph:
Running JPH for 71 hours now without using autokiller and it has run great without much lag.

Mainly browsing internet, video, music, email and games without issue. And reply messages and calls.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prankey:
I agree, suggested as I felt "Autokiller" might not be working correctly in Froyo.

My experience was different. If I just use the OCLF 2.04 and do not tweak with file system and minfree settings, my phone is working perfectly no matter how many apps I load and how long I use (used alteast for 3 days without any lag issue)

I COMPLETELY agree. We are not talking of Windows 9x which could not manage memory well. We are talking of Linux which should work perfectly even when we have several apps running.

I believe the cached portion shows as used memory. We may have to revisit this discussion. As whenever I use memory cleaners, I felt my system went worse if I keep more memory available (except for opening apps which uses the available memory instantaneously). So I doubt free memory (I am not talking of the default available memory on Android) can be used for cache when forcefully freed by these settings/apps.

Completely agree, when I tweak with Minfree settings and the file system to "Deadline" it becomes more "jerky". Others might have different experience, however I strongly believe that while RFS definitely slows down write speeds, default minfree settings and the file system optimization should be optimum for "regular" use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tameracingdriver:
Every time I flash firmware, I try first without the lag fix, then with the lag fix, and finally, with autokiller, and every time autokiller has helped noticeably.

As things stand at the moment, its one app I wouldn't be without, lag fix or no lag fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivanchin99:
Working well here. JPH firmware, autokiller set to strict, 91mb free. 3 days of uptime

Is there an unthemed version out there compatibale with cm6. I like the way it look standard. v27. Anyone know?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jomaca9:
He guys,

I'm searching for same. All HTC IME's around have bugs or replaces the Android's stock IME. Is there a Moded HTC IME that can coexist with the one in Cyanogenmod 6 ( CDMA HTC Hero ) ??

Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] XGodOfModzX:
If anyone can find a working one, please tell me in pm
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jxr94:
Ok since nobody knows if there is a stock low res, i did my best to make one that looked stock. Just install it with a file explorer, it works perfectly, and can "coexist" with the stock one.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] xuvert:
Hello everyone!!!

well the thing is that i want to make a program which finish my calls after 3 or 4 minutes.

i know how to make programs for wm, but i don't know how to end a call by command...

does anyone knows about an article, book, tutorial or something like that, about the types of commands of wm?

or any recomendation??

thanks a lot!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Tydi:
I'm a **** in making program and developement, but you can maybe use a command that use the link to the "End-Call button". To simulate a press on it.

Don't know at all if it's possible :/ Hope that help you, or give you idea =)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mp3sum:
The old thread filled with sparse reports of Cyanogen Nightly release experiences has gotten old in the tooth. As we approach the release of 6.1.0, I feel it necessary to start fresh and record configurations (dates, kernel's, etc) with details that have the potential to benefit us all.

I am currently running the #169 nightly and an underclocked kernel (shooting for battery life at the moment), and have run into no stability issues thus far. This includes use of both wireless and bluetooth features.

Please reply with your positive or negative take on CM nightlies for the Incredible Build #100 or newer. Thank you!

Anecdotal Reports for 169:

-Video camera functions, Infinite focus only

-LEDs function as expected. Please remember Pule under your audio settings

-Stock kernel performs VERY well, however invisibleKs may improve your mileage

Download the newest nightlies from:

Can you verify that the built in wifi tethering works (using adrenylynes kernel)? if that doesn't, what about the wifi tethering app, and if it works, what version are you running, pre9?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ianxcom:
I ran nightly 9/19 starting last night until now. The email FC problem seemed fixed from the 6.0.2 but i would get random restarts and incredilight would FC alot.

Cant wait for 6.1
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dnoyeb:
i'd recommend using the HTC flashlight apk.. it works without the sense framework (works with cm6).

you can grab it from the themes/apps forum.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] alexdw369:
Unless I found the wrong post, the com.htc.flashlight.apk that was ported over from the Desire 2.2 Rom does not use the LEDs, but uses the screen instead. That is pretty gay.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] droidyourlookingfor:
I'm not sure about CyanogenMod and other AOSP ROMs, but the HTC Flashlight included in froyo uses the LEDs
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dnoyeb:
must have been the wrong post... it uses the LEDs.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] daftlush:
I am on 9/19 and I'm happy to announce that my Gallery and Music Player can detect pictures and music on BOTH the eMMC and microSD.

However, Gallery still doesn't set pictures as wallpaper.

Running King's kernel but about to switch to Adrynalyne's new Battery Saver kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wwjdd44:
I am using the 9/19 version. With adrenylynes kernel the built in wifi does not work.....the pre9 does work. I just tried this kernel to see if it worked or not.....it does not allow adb wireless to work, so I went back to Koush's stock kernel. I have not had any problems running the stock kernel and my battery life is quite good.

^^ Gallery lets me set a pic as wallpaper..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] alexdw369:
Haha thats the post I found, but I didn't read deep enough. The first post says that it uses the screen INSTEAD of the LEDs. a later post points this out as false. i wish the op had been edited
[Droid Incredible Android Development] daftlush:
Gallery lets me set as wallpaper on 9/20... but some dark ones (black wood) look like they're all black.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ty07allstar:
Does anyone know when 6.1 will be released? I can't wait to be able to hold the back button and close the app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mp3sum:
I can confirm that wifi-tether (packaged and pre-9) both function as expected. No reboots overnight. Uptime of 21 hours, wifi and bluetooth on and off, mostly the former. Installing 9/20, no wipe.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mcgoo99:
i was running the 9/15 nightly for a few days with minimum apps to test stability. still had the "temp drop" problem on both incoming and outgoing calls. battery life was abysmal (8-10 hours max, light usage...something was keeping my cell standby in the same percentage as display usage and chewing up battery).

last night i got several freezes, reboots, and two battery pulls. so now i'm on 9/20 nightly. so far so good for stability, but already down 20% 2 hours after unplugging. something isn't letting my phone sleep; any idea what it might be, or how to find out? i'm running relatively few apps at the moment, but see no performance differences to when i had a ****-ton of apps/widgets running.

edit: emmc still doesn't mount in windows. shows up as 660 MB according to the OS's "SD Card and phone storage", but all the Gee Bee's are being reported as 6.6 GB under astro.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
Are you using the most recent Trillian beta? If so, set it to battery saver mode or it will drain the crap out of your battery. The polling frequency on the regular mode is too frequent.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mp3sum:
I've also had great luck with Adrenylyne's new undervolted kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mcgoo99:
no sir

10 chars
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mcgoo99:
ok i'll bump-charge and give it a shot. anything's gotta be better than this! sad, because on my Nexus One with stock CM6 + juice defender, i got some 40 hours out of a charge. i miss that phone lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nordr:
This.

Started with 6.0.2, upgraded to 9/20 nightly with no wipe. I've previously tried KK, CM6's stock kernel, and adrynalyne's AOSP kernel. Of the four, this newest undervolted kernel is performing like an absolute champ. Tethering (both built-in and pre9) is working, and I am having none of the CDMA signal attenuation issues while also using the WiFi radio that I previously had.

Somebody is getting laid for this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dnoyeb:
sounds awesome, I am installing latest now and will follow suit.

HELP! i dont know what to do anymore :S my phone its not receiving messages, for example i use twitter and test when they send me a message on twitter with my laptop on my phone it wouldnt receive it ! i already did a soft and hard reset! took the sd card! i dont know what else can i do? help please
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] TheFlatulentFox:
That happened to me, Its the SIM CARD, Switch SIM CARDS with a friend and check if it sends a SMS or a phone call. Its Most likey that your SIM Card is fried, thats what happened to me. just Go to T-mobile and ask for a new one. they should give you one for free. GOOD LUCK! ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Conpa18Dani:
i dont think its that, because the regular messages (not the twitter ones) i can receive them without a problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Matthes42:
It seems to be not related to your phone. Try to search in twitter (e. g. try to send those messages to someone else).

Is exactly what I personally want, except.. to work. It doesn't keep up properly, not sure if it keeps time itself and doesn't keep synced or what, but it's pretty horrid sometimes.... I keep up with a TZ +9.5 from me and sometimes I'll see it as far off as +8.5...

The others I saw nothing interesting... Except the one wasting most of the widget space on an android icon :rolleyes:

[THEME] ★★Apple 'ipad' WVGA Windows Mobile 6.5.x theme★★ by Jeffrey2000

UPDATED at 19-9-2010 22:45:

Coming up next.... a theme inspired by Apple's ipad theme... here's a picture in advance how it's gonna be...

Remember this is NOT a HTC sense theme, I just happen to have this installed already and like it together with my windows mobile theme!!!

If you want it like this you can better install NRG's 6.5.3/Dinik (in my case omnia 2/i8000) rom and apply my theme after, you can have this views via Cookie's home editor / edit home layout and drag&drop the interface as how you want it to be.

DON't FORGET TO PUT THIS THEME AS DEFAULT or nothing will change :p

Drop a few lines if you like it (or not) :P

+ this theme includes an Apple styled on/off switch!! :)

UPDATED at 20/09/2010 00:19:

And here's the cab file for now...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATED at 21-9-2010 23:16:

Upped the same theme but now with blue buttons

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATED at 02-10-2010 21:00:

Made some adjustments to the theme like the buttons and some other things:

v1.1 includes:

- new improved buttons

- new improved scrollbar

- new improved selection bar

- new improved messagebox title

- new improved shelf/icon dock

version 1.1 can be downloaded here.

--------------------------------------------------------

Just uploaded v1.2, changes:

-fixed the button color + shadow

-fixed the softkeybar messagebox (toast)

-fixed the shelf/dock (softkeybar)

-fixed the radio buttons

(The below files are not the latest cz my upload limit @xda is gone and I dun wanna clean up...)

So just to be clear, please read this clear!:

This is NOT a Sense, Manila, Titanium or CHT theme which I made that's all Dinik's work. I've made the Windows Mobile theme... like the scrollbar, softkey buttons, pushbuttons, taskbar, softkeybar, checkboxes, radiobuttons, comboboxes, selections etc. all within Windows and ofcourse the portrait/landscape background so you don't need anything else in fact.

[Omnia II Themes and Apps] ptm_rupe:
Hi Jeffrey,

I installed the cab and chose it as default theme. The buttons look very nice. I'm missing the wallpaper from your screenshots above though. Where can I find it? It showed up very briefly when coming back from CoOkies Hometab Editor but now it's not displayed. Do you have a hint for me?

Thanks and regards,

Petra

P.S.: I just saw that the background in the Start Menu is the new one but unfortunately it is not on the Home Screen (CoOkies Home Tab included in Energy CHT ROM), well, at least not in portrait mode. It's also there in landscape mode on the Home Screen though, but where is it stored so I can also choose it for portrait mode and in the lock screen???
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
Tnx for ur reply but well the pics are being copied to \windows\ but I can upload it here aswell see below...
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
Version 1.1 is uploaded, see the main topic or d/l here.

[Omnia II Themes and Apps] sener:
Hi jeffrey2000,

You said that this is not a Sence theme. But it looks like a CHT theme right?

So we could install your theme even other any Sence ROM with CHT installed.

Can you confirm?
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:

[Omnia II Themes and Apps] finsterling:
I have only the WM6.5 Home screen with your wallpapers. What do I wrong?
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] VleNiK:
Looks intereseting !! Downloading and installing it tomorrow for sure!

- Keep you posted!
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] VleNiK:
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but, for this theme you need to flash your ROM with NRG?
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] sportster44:
Is there not some way of getting your theme to work WITHOUT switching Roms?
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
You don't need any specific rom, any 6.5.x rom will do. But like I said many times before this is a Windows Mobile theme the rest you see is sense 2.5. So in case you want it exactly as I have it you will need a sense rom with Dinik's CHT (cht theme) such as NRG's rom.
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
No flash required, just a plain wm6.5.x theme.
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
Maybe forgot to select the theme within Windows Mobile settings?

Go to "start / settings / home" and select the ipad theme from there.
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] pablito4paok:
instalation

Sorry, i cant understand...for the instalation i have to download the cab file above, for example ipad_dark_blue and start the instalation??? Or i have to disable first the windows default from items on today and after that install the cab??? Is the instalation so easy???

thanks in advance and sorry for my english...
[Omnia II Themes and Apps] jeffrey2000:
Yeh it's that simply just install the cab, select the theme within the Windows Mobile settings and the theme will be working straight away. Just make sure you have a Windows Mobile 6.5.x device.

Very sad news indeed. The French site www.nectun.com is closing its doors after 5 years at the top. A classy site with a comprehensive collection of quality skins for Windows Mobile.

Yea it seems gmail never fails to give me my email notifications right on time, right when I receive mail I get a notification no more then 2 minutes later. But yahoo seems to never update and I get my email like 30 min to a hour later. So this must be droid telling me if I don't have gmail I won't get my notifications on time. Very bias of the android OS. And it sends nobody has a sure

fix for thus as I have searched the forums and have used k9 as well it all fails.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Both GMail and Exchange mail support the feature called Push Email -- it pushes into your phone's inbox as soon as the mail server receives the email.

How do you setup your Yahoo email? I guess you used the POP3 email access which is pretty dumb and doesn't support push email (your phone has to check the mail server every so often to see if there is mail there.

There should be a Yahoo mail app created by Yahoo that also supports push email. You have to use that app in order to get the push email from Yahoo.

Hotmail now also supports push email via Exchange email support. So, no new email app needed.
[Captivate General] Tchem:
I have one of my yahoo accounts set up on the yahoo app, but it only allows for one account as far as I know
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Then, call Yahoo and ask them to support multiple accounts. Yahoo, Gmail and hotmail all use properitary protocols for their email in addition to support the old POP3 protocol. Gmail and Hotmail have the added advantage of supporting Exchange ActiveSync. So, in order to take advantage of advanced feature like push email, you will need the native client from the respective email provider or use Exchange ActiveSync if there is support for it. It is not any kind of bais in Andriod OS. It is the fault of Yahoo falling way behind the technology curve. POP3 protocol is created like 20 to 30 years ago. Back then, emails often take days to reach the destination.

BTW, the phone's built-in email client only supports 2 Exchange accounts max. I know Gmail client supports multiple gmail accounts as well but not sure how many accounts it can support.
[Captivate General] a_fuegon:
Yahoo does have an app, whether it's any good is a different story. I have tried both, the email app and the messenger app and they are very laggy, almost rendering the phone useless. Then again ymmv

Hey does anyone have the problem that whenever you start a task manager the notification icon appears, but then after about 30 seconds it disappears and basically just quits the app. I tried 2 different managers (advanced task manager, task killer) and both do the same thing where they run for a bit then quit. They still work though so I don't really know what is going on. Thanks guys
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gruvngyrl:
I have Advanced Task Manager installed, and haven't experienced anything out of the ordinary.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPS81:
Perhaps your task manager is killing itself. Make sure it's on the exception list.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hungry4cheese:
It has stopped.. I don't know why it was doing it in the first place, but after the update to JH7 it stopped. Thx for the help anyway

[Streak 5 General] futurama:
Am i being very naive here? I assumed my streak would make video calls out of the box but i cant find the option for it. Is this something android is lacking? My touch hd did it straight from the dailer.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Get fring app or qik app then you can video call.
[Streak 5 General] Keethos:
Yeah, I don't think the Streak can, the only time I've seen the front camera being used for video calls is with it was used with other apps like Fring I think (I could be wrong though....not really tried myself).

EDIT: Oops, someone beat me to it :D
[Streak 5 General] futurama:
Im reluctant to sign up to fring. is there a reason why streak cant make video calls natively? My last 4 phones could?
