Guest goce.nakov Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 It was the first thing I could think of, but not necessarily the solution. Our phones are, politely putting, absolute crap. Somebody thought it would be a great idea to only provide us with 128mb ram and once the system has taken ram away for the various parts it needs, it leaves us with very little. How are you guys checking free ram? If you type 'free' from a terminal and the free space is about 2000 then you are good. total-107544 used-104180 free-3364 WTF :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ogiogi Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 How are you guys checking free ram? If you type 'free' from a terminal and the free space is about 2000 then you are good. Mine is always around 4000 and i have no memory issues. Free ram (advanced task manager) 25-35MB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 (edited) First I tried the ADW version, nice and fast but I had the same problems with it unloading etc. So I thought I'd try the Launcher Pro one. Same problems plus more. I had constant problems with Launcher Pro unloading, Keyboard FC's, slowdown. I would check my phone and immediately get acore FCs and keyboard ones, also caused a problem with my alarm earlier. I wiped before installing, did the process twice just to check. I'll be going back to the ADW version for now. Edited July 10, 2010 by Evil Disco Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Narsil Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hi Flib. I take it Karen Gillan didn't turn up then? Perhaps you are her River Song and you keep meeting in the wrong order :) Any advice on the best route for someone running the 2.1 Tre update? Perhaps stupidly, I tried to run superboot 1.5 and amonrecovery 1.5.2 so I could get to the 'flash from zip' option and I bricked the phone. Luckily the Tre 'dload' folder was still on my SD card so I flashed that and I'm back to square one. Should I use the time machine thing and start from scratch, or is there an easier way I've completely missed? Cheers for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest omlas01 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hi! I'm noob about android so my questions may look simple :-) You wrote: "Please DO NOT use the options inside recovery related to A2SD. These only worked with an old version of A2SD and can seriously break your phone if you use these options with FLB-MOD" According to this should I follow the the ap2sd installing steps written here: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile...e/#entry1318840 ? Should I make a nandroid backup (I'm not sure what is that for) in any case? Should I wipe dalvik and others? What happens if I miss to wipe? THX for the help!

Guest Simon O Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Yeah definitely the LauncherPro version is more slower and laggier...sometimes need like 6 seconds to launch dialer etc.. Seriously? Takes between 1 and 2 seconds to launcher dialer on the launcherpro version. I'm quite surprised that a few people are having such issues with the two roms since I updated them. But I guess it's to be expected that what works for some people may not work for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can that be?! We all use the exactly same devices (Huawei U8220) with probably same partitioning (T-Mobile HU official update), wipe, and flash the very same FLB ROM. Now it really should work the very same way for all of us - shouldn't it?! Other question: if I move Dalvik cache back to the Phone (I have 65MBs of free memory after installing everything I'd use and prefer speed to free unused space) will I experience any speeding up? (I use a Kingstin class4 8GB SD if it counts.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest twics Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 The batterylife has been significantly reduced from 2+ days to 1 day in the new 2.1 ROM ? Am I doing something wrong ? Iv found that mine may need recharge mid day depending what im doing, I use to get more usage this seems to be common on most 2.1Roms Mine is always around 4000 and i have no memory issues. Free ram (advanced task manager) 25-35MB. Mine is saying 4444 is this good? :) I think ADW in latest beta5 worked better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rly can't imagine what is making Launcher Pro version to behave like that Yeah I've been using the ADW version since I posted and have had no problems (bar the known). I will say the LauncherPro version felt faster but the constant unloading (when loading the music player, browser, even once when using the gallery) and FCs killed it for me. Earlier I used the phone, checked my email and put it away. Ten minutes later I turned it on again and had a Keyboard FC/Wait message and Acore FC/Wait message waiting for me.

Guest anders_ludwigsson Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 I installed the v1.0 today with launcher pro and I'm really surprised! It's a kick ass mod and it runs really nice and smooth. No problems at all, so far. A question though: I scipped the a2sd-part of the installation as told on the first page. Am I able to install apps on my sd-card or must I do something more? Kudos for a really nice mod and the best mod so far!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all use the exactly same devices (Huawei U8220) with probably same partitioning (T-Mobile HU official update), wipe, and flash the very same FLB ROM. Now it really should work the very same way for all of us - shouldn't it?! This is the thing. Release 1.0 has been in development for some time now and I've had people testing the rom for the last 2 weeks with no serious bugs. Any bug reports received I managed to resolve the issues. The problem is that some phones, for whatever reason, have issues. In the perfect world the rom should work for everybody perfectly. But it sadly doesn't. This is why I put the following disclaimer on the first page: This ROM is a work in progress. Whilst it is stable on my U8220 Pulse, I cannot gurantee that it will be stable for you. Please test at your own risk and take care. The ROM does not change any hardware. Almost every custom ROM for any Android device has it's problems. Even Cyanogenmod (which, imho, is totally overrated) is unstable on some devices. All I can do is try and fix the various bugs the best I can. Unfortunately fixing some bugs is introducing others and I really don't know why this is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
