The solution

And before anyone else answered, I have solved it!! :p

Did a nandroid restore to earlier in the day... I had made one before installing these apps:

1) Handcent SMS

2) Advanced Task Killer [free]

3) TweetDeck Beta 0.9.10.1

4) Lookout Mobile

I am 99% sure that the icons and the blotchy screen with random colored blocks were a result of the ATK install slowing down my phone.

Lookout and ATK were also killing my battery, FYI.

If anyone has any questions or problems, let me know

[HD2 General] menni123:
Hello, as the title explains I cannot send MMs's even though I have already contacted O2 to send the settings to my phone, I have sent ACTIVE to 2020 as well & nothing comes back?

My phone is a HD2 which was unlocked from T-mobile to O2, it was 'sim locked' to T-mobile but now i can send messages & receive them without any problems also make & send calls as well as access the internet.

But for some reason I cant send MMS's

Another problem is the Bluetooth feature?, I can find other devices no problem but am unable to send anything at all to these found devices? I can send things to my HD2 phone without any trouble?

Any help would be appreciated

I updated to the 2.3.15 deodexed froyo from black hat yesterday. I've been running the DX serenity theme since before that, but i just read that you cannot run themes without being deodexed. My confusion comes from the fact that i just checked my system/framework folder and there are a bunch of .odex files in there. Do i need to deodex still? If so, what is the best/easiest way to go about this? I love my droid x, but it seems that everything was much simpler on my original moto droid *sigh*.... any enlightenment anyone could offer me would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

Hope this fixes 3g at my University, it was fast before now it's a piece of crap, and with full bars too. At home it's blazing.
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
Chances are, the towers at your school are loaded. I have the inverse effect. 4G rocks on campus, but has a 2-3 Mbps degragation in the city.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
You might be right, but I don't understand how it could be fast(800-1100kBitps) from the moment I got my Evo until one day when it was just rediculously slow and hasn't been fast for even 1 second since. 80kBitps max
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
I couldn't answer that...my two cents:

1: Students don't use their phone at the beginning of the semester and are now starting to use the network during class.

2: Everyone and their pet mouse learned how to tether and is bogging down the system

In all seriousness though, I only get 80 kbps down on 4g sometimes. If you are testing near folliage or right next to a wall, that can increase attenuation in the signal and drop your rate.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
Forgot about that, yes I was using 3g heavily during summer classes, less students attend these days.

Are other carriers this bad?

[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
Hey all,

Sorry if this has been answered/asked already, but is there a way you can prevent SetCPU from getting killed by AutoKiller? I have the autokill-profile in AutoKiller set to "Default", but the system assigns SetCPU an OOM value of 11-14, which is the highest value for getting killed (essentially regarding it as extremely non-important). How does one PERMANENTLY set SetCPU on the "Do-Not-Kill List"?

Thanks in advance.

PS: I'm running KaosFroyo v35-1 and so I can't uninstall Autokiller.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Short answer: No

Long answer: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Lol...funny stuff

As for OP you can uninstall autokiller if you want too...just look up how to remove apps through adb or terminal on phone.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
why cant you just lower the oom value by clicking and holding setcpu under the processed tab and select lower oom value, it will drop it to -17, which practically means it is being ignored.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
"Practically" is not what he asked for. What he asked for is a permanent solution.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
That only works for about 3 minutes, until the system automatically increases the OOM value back to like 12 or 13.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
I don't understand... even when I have it set to system default, after a while, it still kills it. So that means, even if I were to uninstall Autokiller, the SetCPU would still be killed after a while?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
Doesnt matter if its killed. Its android, itll come right back
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
That's the problem. SetCPU doesn't.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
I check my processes constanly and i dont see it going away. Maybe im wrong
[Droid Eris Android Development] paulbonner:
Maybe Autokiller is correctly determining that SetCPU is consuming more power and Country cycles than its providing. I've certainly found that to be the case with Kaos Froyo

[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
It's always killed after 10-15 minutes, even on the default setting. If I set it to aggressive, immediately after it goes into the background, it's killed within a matter of seconds.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
KaosFroyo is already overclocked? I notice a huge performance gain when I enable SetCPU and OC it to 710mhz. If KaosFroyo is indeed overclocked already, then it must be set pretty low, or at least, very close to stock settings....
[Droid Eris Android Development] fo0you:
Ocd to 710 by default

Edit: I've had the best results ditching setcpu and using the collin_ph script, just btw
[Droid Eris Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
I see that setcpu is at a constant 2 ooms. Now im using Zen express but idk if that makes a difference. And im set to strict
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
The real and best answer I have for the first post (and what I do, and advise everyone I am around to do)

Stop using Autokiller.

Android does a great job killing processes.

Most users use 4-5 apps constantly throughout the day, and if the few most commonly used ones stay in memory more often than not, the phone is FASTER, as a result of calling up apps instead of having to completely relaunch them every time.

YES, using autokiller to adjust your memory settings can help if you are normally running process-intense apps in the background (like I sometimes run a VNC for work that will chew up some processor time if I just hit 'home' when I'm done instead of killing the task, or sometimes a small game that you figured was not in memory anymore, is still chewing up processor time).

BUT

That is what, and only what, I use a task killer for. I open up Free Advanced Task Manager, kill my background process that I don't want running, and move on with life.

9 days out of 10, I don't use a task killer, and I NEVER use auto killer.

If you want to keep your phone faster than not, use 'back' to get out of apps instead of pushing 'home'. Unless 'back' is mapped to something in the app (like for some apps), back will end the process rather than leave it running.

I could write ten pages on why to not use autokiller, but a lot of guys who are a lot smarter than me will swear by it. I just find it slowing down my phone by forcing me to re-launch things like Handcent SMS, my Web Browser, and Google Voice, when I'd rather have those things stay running in the background. They don't chew up much processor time just sitting in the 'background', and my phone is WAY faster if it takes 1 second to open up each app instead of 3-6 seconds (because autokiller made my phone already automatically kill the task).

Good luck with your decision, sir.

And if you're using xtrSense, you can just set up your GScript to overclock how you want (mine's at 806800), and if you're using Froyo ROMs, you can use the battery tweak. SetCPU isn't that useful for most of these ROMs, since the methods of overclocking by collin_ph's battery tweak and xtrSense's GScript are faster and more efficient, and don't require a background process like SetCPU to be running.

But that's just my opinion. I hope it helps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Bimmer323:
I use System Panel to basically monitor my memory instead of just relying on Autokiller to manage them for me. I also found that the way I use my phone, similar to the way pkopelek mentions, a few select apps a day, my free memory stays fairly close to what it did with autokiller installed. Average around 40-60 and if I kill a few off, up to 90-100.

One thing I have noticed is that System Panel comes with a cpu scale and shows your clock speed. With no SetCPU installed my CPU will drop down to 245 and then bounce around and finally settling back to 245 then the cycle starts again. With Collins tweak I get the same response. However, with SetCPU installed my CPU will clock down to 245 and sit there until I touch the screen. I have to believe that SetCPU is doing something that collin's isn't. Now the only way I can get it to behave this way is if I change the advanced parameters.

just my 2 cents.....
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
When I used AutoKiller and SetCPU (I used both between May and August) before I started using xtrSENSE v4.x, I never had a problem with SetCPU quitting working under any ROM, including any Froyo that was out at the time.

I only mean that perhaps the problem isn't between SetCPU and AutoKiller. Maybe it is the ROM??? Just guessing here.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:

What is GScript? And is it only in the xtrSense ROM?
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:

xtrrom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694472

xtrSense is the most well-featured, most stable, fastest, most functional SenseUI ROM out there with the July OTA update. xtrROM just doesn't have the SenseUI home screen. TaintedTenzo and xtrROM are both good for ones that don't use the SenseUI home screens.

Zach.xtr used this app that was made over a year ago in the G1 dev forums called GScript to change some system settings and allow you to tweak your phone (much like collin_ph's battery tweak), though not quite as extensively as the battery tweak.

But it does allow for a better, more 'native' overclocking than SetCPU, just like the battery tweak does. GScripts basically run 'batch file' type sets of commands that you could normally bang out at the command line of a Terminal Emulator. Zach just figured out what all of the scripts had to say ahead of time for you, taking all of the work out of it that you'd normally have to do. The scripts also allow your phone to stay overclocked through rebooting, instead of manually setting it every time. I highly recommend.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
Same here...oom 2...and I never have a problem with it getting killed
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
But it's 2.1, not 2.2, correct?
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
You're not missing much in 2.1 that you have in 2.2.

A lot of features that you have in SenseUI's 2.1, Google copies to catch up with in the next version of Android.

For instance, Auto Brightness - not a standard AOSP 2.1 feature until after SenseUI. Then Cyanogenmod and Froyo ROMs started having it.

There are probably a dozen features like that, but I don't have much time to banter about it. But really. What are you missing that 2.2 has that 2.1 doesn't?

The ability to run 'Froyo-Only' apps? There aren't many of those yet.

SenseUI is what makes this phone amazing compared to AOSP android. CyanogenMod is really cool and has lots of neat customizations, but no matter what you do, it won't be as buttery smooth as a well done SenseUI ROM like xtrSense.

I've gone to AOSP/CM/Froyo 8 or 9 times since getting my Eris. The longest I've lasted is 4 days.

SenseUI is prettier, the ROMs are more stable, everything just 'works', it's more impressive when you show it off to people (with the exception of a few sweet CM Froyo settings that I really like), etc.

It's not Froyo that makes those ROMs so cool, IMO. it's the CyanogenMod features that make even tempted to go Froyo.

I'm on xtrSense, and I don't even feel a twitch toward going "up" to Froyo. it's not really an upgrade in functionality for my phone, is what it comes down to. *shrug*. To each his own. Plus, I don't like my home screen scrolling being randomly choppy. SenseUI has a way of prioritizing the process of 'scrolling' between screens that makes it buttery smooth. That isn't replicated well by ANY other home replacement, in my opinion.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Acrono:
Hmm, I must admit, the home screens aren't that smooth on KaosFroyo, but the main reason I got a custom ROM in the first place (instead of just rooting my phone and sticking with the stock ROM) was to ditch the Sense UI (and get rid of bloatware). I personally dislike the way it looks and much prefer the native Android without the Sense overlay. To each his own, I guess.

BTW, I'm kinda new around here, I'm assuming when you say AOSP, you mean the stock android OS without any additions (such as the Sense UI)?
[Droid Eris Android Development] theboo7:
AOSP is Android Open Source Project i believe, which means the roms are from pure android code. So yes
[Droid Eris Android Development] GertBFrobe:
Similar to pkopalek, I've been with the Eris from day one and have been through all the changes and ROMs. My personal preference is using the SenseUI ... I always seem to gravitate back to it.

Don't get me wrong, the other ROMs are great and have had a lot of hard work put into them. I just like the xtrSense setup. To each their own.

I just recently dumped the Autokiller and setcpu in favor of the script setups. I'm noticing that the little glitches, hangs, etc. seem to have gone away.

I'm pretty sure I'll settle into this ROM for a long time a.k.a. til sometime next year when I can upgrade.

[neoTouch S200 General] epdm2be:
I wonder if ppl are still using their F1/S200?

I'm currently stuck on my Samsung Omnia SGH-i900 because it's the only device that does 2 things that i need.

1) Torchbutton: to use the LED-flash as a LED-lamp. Currently mapped to the taskswitch-button.

2) Vito audio Notes touch can records phone-calls (automagically) even when the call is through a bluetooth headset.

I wonder can the F1 do the same?

Is there a program to use the LED-flash as a lamp

and does vito audio notes touch work to record calls? Perhaps someone can try this out for me (there's a demo to download on Vito's website or PM me)

I also wonder how's the camera? And are the latest ROM's any improvement on call quality (I hear it's not very good on the acer)?

Just a few questions. I ask this because the HTC Desire (which i wanted first) has no incall-recording whatsoever). Froyo-ROM's have a function to use the LED as a lamp though. And I tried an Omnia II (GT-i8000) and Vito Audio notes touch doesn't record calls (or wm notes for that matter). The only other alternative is to go for a Nokia Symbian device X6 or 5800 but that's a step backwards imho.

thanks in advance for the answers

Hi,

I try Torch button (v2.2) recently but it doesn't work on F1 with the actual driver on Arto's ROM. I get an Error Message : "Couldn't detect a supported device, exiting...". I'm interested if someone success to make it work, (also by use the flashlight to signal messages when phone is placed on the side of the screen, I know there is an HTC app to do this, but doesn't work on my phone).

I havn't test any call recorder.

The camera is not so good (disapointing for a 5M pixels), but for a phone it stay 'correct'.

Hope this helps
[neoTouch S200 General] riotman:
hey, the user stephano released a little program to use your led as flashlight.

I cant say much to vito audio recorder app,never used it, and dont have time to test it atm.

Regarding the camera, you re going two or ten steps back concerning quality if you compare acer neotouch vs samsung omnia. Acers camera quality is poo comparing it to the omnia. i owned a omnia before the neotouch and believe me i was very disappointed about the lack of features and very bad picture quality unless the light conditions are perfect.

On the other hand, the neotouch is indredibly fast, it has a hotswitch microsd slot, an audio jack. and a wvga resolution That were the things i ve missed on the i900

If you can stand the bad camera quality, the neotouch might be worth a try

Concerning the call quality, it's actually pretty good. It doesnt have a second mic to supress the background noise but i encounter the call quality as quite decent
