[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
I see where you're coming from, but no. 2.2 has not been given to any samsung mobile device other than the i9000. (that's international, however, and the update's only in the UK and Asia) Canada's Vibrant on the Bell Carrier did get a FroYo update, but that fried the internal storage, and the update was pulled.

I honestly don't care if the update comes to our device first, I would just appreciate Samsung a bit if they would have ANY FroYo update for their phones in AMERICA.
[Epic 4G General] flash_c4:
It's obvious though that this device most likely started from the ground up with 2.2 unlike the Epic so we have to wait. It's just the nature of the beast when it comes to rolling out updates to something and trying not to blow up every device already out there and then have to deal with that nightmare.
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
It's all about quantity over quality anymore.
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
How did you feel about the, came out after the epic, piece of **** Instinct, getting 2.2 already?
[Epic 4G General] mxcoldhit:

Ive always really liked my x10 and coming from a bb storm is was a huge improvement. The one thing thats always driven me nuts about the phones is that all the scrolling, weather it be in menus or the home screen has always been choppy compared to say the iphone. I recently had the chance to use a galaxy s and it too way farr smoother than my x10. Is there anything that can be done to improve this?
[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
root it, delete facerecognition.apk and enable jit

that was the biggest improvement i made
[XPERIA X10 General] dforesi:
yea my phone is rooted, im pretty sure I have enabled JIT I'm running about 17.5 MFLOPS on Linpack. Ill have to see if facerecognition is still there. Is it constantly running in the background or something?
[XPERIA X10 General] Jmercy09:
Are you running the default launcher? If so launcher pro and adw would be a nice choice. As compared to the iphone, no android device will be as smooth until android implement hw acceleration to the UI.
[XPERIA X10 General] dforesi:
yea I have launcher pro plus, it was a huge improvement ill admit, I was just thrown off at how smooth the galaxy s is. Guess ill just have to live with it
[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
Yea I think he's asking why is the galaxy s is like silky smooth in terms of scrolling and such but not the x10. Both are android phones with 1ghz processor.

I think the reason why is that the galaxy s has a better GPU chip? or a dedicated one? That's what I heard so maybe that's why? Correct me if i'm wrong.
[XPERIA X10 General] PollPixx:
Possibly, but also some widgets can slow it down. For instance i just installed animated contact widget and suddenly my scrolling lags after adding three contacts. I removed it and voila, adw ex is running like crazy again...

Sent from my x32 using the licking write method....man I am thirsty now!
[XPERIA X10 General] sinkster:
Same here. Using adw ex now, have the scrollable calendar and folder organiser with no effect, but when facebook or contact widgets are added it goes into bullet time... think there's cache issues with the X10. Then again, updated on Xmas eve and lost root.
[XPERIA X10 General] svejstrup:
you can't solve the smoothness problem on the x10 with software :/ the main problem with this phone is acually the screen.. it's not very responsive and it takes a moment to register your finger. this makes scrolling and everything else laggy compared to other phones with the same hardware :(

for instance the game fruit ninja is almost unplayable bacause of this.
[XPERIA X10 General] zeban:
I think you are describing the 30 frames per second limit that SE has implemented on the screen.

Go to the website below and look at the 30 FPS and then 60 FPS. Is this the problem you are describing?

http://www.boallen.com/fps-compare.html
[XPERIA X10 General] jimbo77:
Hey There,

I´ve added this command line: windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=26 to my build.prop and it feels smother whenever you´re going around the homescreen or appdrawer.

You should give it a try....

Ps. You can add that line at the bottom of your build.prop using Root Explorer.

Jim
[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
I got root explorer, i found build.prop in /system/. How do I edit it?

There's no edit option?
[XPERIA X10 General] ssj_jaypee:
you are using launcher pro.

go into the launcher pro settings and there you can change the scrolling speed and smoothness.

turn off the elastic effect and speed up drawer and scrolling speeds.

should be much smoother now.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Hmmm...weird because I thought the X10 was much smoother than the Galaxy S...which is why I sold the Galaxy and got back my beloved X10. I didn't like the Galaxy when compared to the X10. Im rooted, deleted timescape, face recognition, etc etc...huge improvements.
[XPERIA X10 General] daashali:
I think my X10 is pretty smooth. Compared to my friend's Galaxy S I think its even better. Although mine is rooted and cleared and his is not.
[XPERIA X10 General] jimbo77:
At the top of Root Explorer is an option select the one that says r/w (read/write) and then long press on build.prop and at the end of the pop-up menu choose open in text editor... that way you can add the command line...

I hope this helps.

[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
Thanks.. Just did it. In order to make it take effect, just restart the phone?

Or what does this code do anyway?
[XPERIA X10 General] mr_at_sgs:
Did you see or feel an effect? For me there is no difference ...
[XPERIA X10 General] ProBoner:
I am almost 100% sure the problem is the 32fps cap SE placed on this phone. Total and utter garbage! Until we are able to modify the X10's kernel, there will be no improvement to the smoothness you are referring to.

And to the guys who's used both the galaxy S and X10 and think the X10 is smoother, pass me some of that stuff you're smoking will ya? :D
[XPERIA X10 General] mr_at_sgs:
Agree, in quadrants 700 vs. 1850. Neomark 27 fps vs. 56 fps.

X10 is so much underperforming at the moment, that I could cry. It's so much similar to the Nexus One. Blame SE.
[XPERIA X10 General] Infinity1988:
Scrolling in the application "android system info" is very smooth. I have the stock launcher and i only deleted moxier. But scrolling in the menu and in the settings menu is very choppy. That means it is software related and not hardware related. My x10 scrolled smoother in android 1.6 than in 2.1. SE just sucks at optimizing or they didn't enable hardware accelleration for menu's. But then again, why does it scroll smoothly in android system info without hardware accelleration?

Face recognition uses 0% cpu on my phone so that can't be the cause.

The choppy scrolling is very annoying. It gives you the feeling your phone is too slow, but it isn't.
[XPERIA X10 General] aLPaSLaN07:
The most irritating part of this phone is this laggy scrolls.. Its definetely because of the 30 fps limit.. I don't get why SE limited this? What is the f'ing benefit out of it
[XPERIA X10 General] Flo95:
Maybe it saves some battery.
[XPERIA X10 General] 17mayis:
what do you expect this is business if they make a phone perfect with everything how they gonna sell they other product that comes out?

this is not only for SE i mean all other brand include Samsung nokia motorola etc etc..
[XPERIA X10 General] Flo95:
Isn't there a possibility to uncut that limit?

I think I saw a video on youtube from an HTC EVO 4G with a fps uncut.
[XPERIA X10 General] Jmercy09:
Yes, HTC removed that limit with the upgrade to 2.2
[XPERIA X10 General] XERO_Racer:
yeh but look at Sammy and their Galaxy S? its selling like iPhones but on steroids, and its literally almost a perfect phone(from what pretty much all reviewers say) and theyre gonna be doing even more "revolutionary" innovations on the next line of Galaxy S phones
[XPERIA X10 General] ProBoner:
Not quite perfect, GPS is balls on it, the camera could be a little sharper, and notification and camera LED should've been included.

Download go launcher. Its the smoothest of all launchers ive tried... adw launcherpro etc.... and to me its the nicest looking too....
[XPERIA X10 General] bp_SE:
Change the default 2.1 launcher in X10 to a different one (and uninstall the default - need root for uninstalling). The new default 2.1 X10 launcher's the problem...it's choppy.

Go 50+ apps and nothing's laggin
[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
install the latest jit via j's jit enabler v002. nothing laggy on my x10 anymore! scoring 30+ in linpack and 830 in quadrant.
[XPERIA X10 General] akila87:
Or install ASOP ROM + jit enabler v002. You'll be amazed.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
I installed the latest ROM from z and enabled JIT. I have quadrant score of around 779 and linpack 31+ all the time. But still the scrolling is laggy and honestly, I don't see any difference. Did i miss something?
[XPERIA X10 General] Infinity1988:
Some applications will open a bit faster. But the scrolling will still be laggy indeed. If you install a third party menu launcher the laggy scrolling goes away. I wonder why Sony Ericsson can't fix this problem, they must have experienced it on their test devices.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
Is it due to FPS? But I don't think changing from 30 to something bigger will make any difference. I guess we have to live with that.

Also, i don't have this line in my build.prop

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

or this one either

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast

do I have to have one of these lines in build.prop?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
I think your scrolling problem is a ram issue. I have super smooth scrolling, here is a list of what I suggest anyone do:

1. Install the latest update (and then root it)

2. Enable JIT2

3. Delete or freeze unused programs like moxier and face recognition, and MOST IMPORTANTLY:

4. Make sure you have Autokiller Memory Optimizer installed!

If you don't have a memory optimizer installed then you will often be running with only 30 megs of ram free, this always slowed down my x10 in scrolling, menus, etc. With Autokiller, and minfreemanager before that, my problems were solved. Just make sure you are not using a task killer. Memory managers alter Androids default values and therefore don't fight with Android regarding what is running.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
Which preset do you use for Autokiller Memory Optimizer?
[XPERIA X10 General] Wolfbreak:
I have Agressive, you can try it. For me it works good
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
i tried moderate, but didn't find much difference. fire up any web browser and goto xdaforums.com and scroll down, you'll know what i am talking about.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
That has more to do with rendering XDA in the browser which is always a chore since it is pretty graphics intensive, but the app drawer and general responsiveness of the UI works perfectly smooth for me on optimum settings with Autokiller, this includes running live wallpapers and plenty of widgets.
[XPERIA X10 General] Infinity1988:
It's not because of low FPS. It's because of bugged software. Maybe android 2.1 just isn't smooth, or SE just screwed up the rom. A friend of mine has android 2.2 on his x10, it's from the dev forum. And it's much smoother, i don't think jit is a solution for the choppy scrolling. Just install a different menu loader.

I have jit2 installed, latest rom, uninstalled all unused programs like moxier. Face recognition uses 0% cpu power here so it doesn't matter if it's gone. A friend of mine deleted face recognition but saw no difference.

Also android is designed to use as much ram as possible. Autokillers have absolutely no use, opening applications will be slower. It's not a buggy windows on the x10, it doesn't need 2GB of free ram to run smoothly.

Scrolling in the menu's was still choppy until i installed a different menu loader. You probably had a bad working application that slowed down your device but got killed by the autokiller.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
i don't want to make any wrong suggestion, but in iPod or iPhone it never happens. I have not yet tested with other android phones, but none of the browsers in x10 can give the same fluid scroll experience. I wonder why? Hardware acceleration perhaps?
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
different menu loader? sounds good, how can I install it? any link, or suggestion?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
Did you read my post? The Autokiller changes the settings SE/Google chose for free RAM management with the X10, it does not fight Android, it changes the internal settings, I still have 25-30 processes running at one time, but that extra 20-30 megs of RAM makes a world of differance. Believe what you want but minfreemanager and Autokiller do wonders for the X10. I have conservative settings, usually 50-60 megs of RAM free, but when you have the browser, navigation, google maps and Power Amp/mediascape going at the same time the phone is still smooth, without it the phone slows to a crawl. My menu scrolling has no slowdowns and zero lag, I don't have a different menu loader (I did with 1.6).
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
I have had a lot of experience with iPhones and that's just not true, see here. My father in law has an iPhone 3GS with the 3.1 (or something like that) OS, hooked up on wifi my X10 renders pages faster then his Safari does.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
Well rendering, it might be true, but I have an iPod touch 3rd Generation, iPhone 4 and x10. And in both iPod and iPhone 4 with iOS 4.2 the scrolling is smooth like... really smooth. It might take a while to open the page, in your opinion, (which on comparing iPhone 4 and x10, side by side, I never got that result) but i am here talking about the scrolling the webpage, once its done loading it.

Its totally smooth on iPhone 4 no lagging at all, but with any browser on x10, I could not get that experience.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
I guess I would have to play with an iPhone 4 a bit more to see how much smoother it is, I will take your word for it though! I have no lag on my phone, but maybe the scrolling is more jagged compared to the latest iteration of the iphone? That sounds like what you're talking about. I doubt that can be helped though :(.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
Well, just to be clear because i don't know if its just my phone, but could you please goto xdaforums.com and then just scroll down the list of devices?

On my phone, the scrolling is a mess for this website. It sure isn't fluid. Also, my brother owned a 2nd generation iPod and I tested it like an hour ago, there is no lag or lets say jag while scrolling at all for the same website that is.

Again, i am not complaining, just curious. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] metcard:
Opera Mobile scrolls super smooth on the X10, it's a little buggy and lacks features of other browsers, but it's so smooth and it animates gifs.

For the homescreen, ADW EX with the 4th animation effect is super smooth.

Also, when the phone hits about 30mb free, it starts to chug along, so it's always good to keep it at about 50mbs free.

Some widgets can also affect smoothness. The Fancy widget with weather on my X10 tends to affect the scrolling smoothness , but I minimised or even eliminated any jitteryness by using ADWEX.
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
Maybe you're using old version of JIT your Linpack score is still low...

Mine's doing 34.8 MFLOP +/- 1, all the time...

BTW, I don't have this scolling issue whatsoever... :D
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
even in webpage like i mentioned earlier?
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
Even on those webpages that you've mentioned...
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
so that means its just my phone. but i still don't get it. I have the same quadrant, 32.something linpack eclair, ofcourse JIT enabled latest firmware, why is it behaving totally different from yours while scrolling? any idea?
[XPERIA X10 General] Cinner:
Have you considered that his definition of "smooth" might be different than yours? What he considers smooth might not be described as smooth by you.

I have had an X10 for months and recently bought an iPhone 4: scrolling on the iPhone is much smoother for me also.
[XPERIA X10 General] javaCity:
voila! lol i thought smooth is smooth like no jagging at all.
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
Nah! I definitely know what I am talking about, I had an iPhone 3GS before and I got another Android phone and two other Symbian smartphones I'm using at the moment loaded with different SIM's on roaming. My X10 was also having some lag when it was on stock. Once I started using JIT etc, it became smooth and fast as you can see with my Linpack and Quadrant score. My Linpack score was only 5.9 before I started optimizing it...
[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
smoothness improved here after JIT, there is an occasional hiccup here and there but nothing truly annoying. To me at least.

I've noticed more serious lag when updating several apps at once on Market, but it's understandable. Some apps seem to be poorly written as well, and performance may vary. Dolphin HD for instance, i think it's a slower browser than Xscope or Miren.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Just got my NC a few days ago, and decided to root. My software version is 1.0.0, and I was following the instructions on nookdevs.com. I downloaded the boot image to my sd card, put it in there and hooked it up to my computer. It was supposed to boot up, although with the screen not turning on. I was directed to wait five minutes and then power it off, remove the sd card, and then power it back up.

So I did that stuff. Now I just have a blank screen and no boot animations at all. I removed the sd card and tried to boot without it, and I got through the first screen which says something like "the future of reading", and then it just stays blank. My computer will recognize that there's a device hooked up to it, but i can't open it up to even put anything on it. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
the 1.0.0 autonooter does not reboot on its own. I just waited a few minutes and took the sd card and rebooted and i saw the new animation on startup. Have you tried holding down the power button for several seconds to let is power down and then try to power up again?
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Hopefully that worked... it says it's installing a "new software update". We'll see if this is it. Thanks for your help.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Okay, so it booted (with the droid boot screen), and it looks like it did before I did the autonooter. My understanding was that it was going to take me to a setup process kind of like the android phones. Am I missing something? Again, many thanks.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
if you got a different boot screen, it probably worked. do you see the android market in your apps list?
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
That's just it... I don't have an apps list. It looks exactly like it did before I did all of this. It's very confusing.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
Try rebooting.

Sent from my XDA app on my Nook Color
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
That didn't help, either. It's the damnedest thing. I know it didn't have the droid boot screen before (where it says it's initializing), but it seems like that's the only thing that it changed.

I would try to update to 1.0.1, but the file from bn.com keeps showing corrupt when I download it. This blows.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Also, when I go to extras, I now have a Youtube icon, as well as a softkeys icon.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
go here http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting and follow it step by step (except for the NC rebooting itself part). i'm not sure what to tell you. i do a lot of phone hacking on iphones and before that, WM phones, but this is my first adventure with an android device.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Thanks for your help... these are the instructions I followed earlier, but I think I'm just going to repeat them and see if it works. I've rooted my android phone and had no problems with it, but this is just a different beast all together. Again, thanks for your help.
[Nook Color General] Geezer Squid:
What did you use to root?

When the nc boots to what you say is the stock launcher, can you open extras and see if superuser is there? Some of the root older methods do not install a custom launcher.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
I used autonooter. Followed the directions to the letter for software version 1.0.0. I didn't see superuser in my extras after "rooting", but I did have the softkeys and youtube icons and they weren't in there before.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
If you had softkeys and youtube then you were rooted.
[Nook Color General] troyneuenschwander:
Well, all right. I really appreciate all of your help, guys.

Edit... restarted the process, went to boot after nootering and now I'm in a boot loop. This just keeps getting better.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] euqilobaid:
Does anyone know what is the stock ROM (RUU) for Vip (Vodafone) branded phones bought in Croatia?

Since i can't get HTC sync to recognize my phone (tried dozen of solutions: different USB drivers, installing PDAnet, older/newer versions of Sync, Android SDK... none worked), is there a way to return it to stock ROM using SD card? I have read that i just need to run the RUU, take out *.zip out of the temp folder in Window and put it on phones SD card.

I want to return my HTC Desire to stock ROM so i can receive official OTA updates.

Phone details:

SLCD screen

PVT 4 SHIP S-ON

Erasesize 20000

HBOOT 0.93.0001

model number A8181

Currently it is rooted (by unrEVOked 3.22) and has ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 installed.

Thank you! / Hvala!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Have you checked shipped-roms.com?

Note: You will need a to find an RUU greater than version 2.0 as you have an SLCD screen. If you flash an RUU lower than this version, you will end up with an SLCD brick.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] euqilobaid:
Thank you for the heads up. I did a lot of google-ing and searching the XDA forum and i am aware of SLCD screen "problems", so that's why i stated it in the phone specs ;)

The latest Vodafone RUU i can see is: "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed.exe" but i am not sure if Vip Croatia is using those Vodafone UK ROMs or some other ones?
