Guest rockymtnbri Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Is the general consensus that this one is too problematic? I'm very happy on 1.6.0. but only want to update if its a significant improvement all round I'm in the same boat - after the heartburn I got from 1.6.1 (twice) I've decided to stick with 1.6.0 for the duration.

Guest ClippinWings Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 This could explain my issues. I was wrong. This was not the problem. Just tried to install again and got the same unresponsive device after boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LorD CLockaN Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 From 1.6.0? what's the big difference? Well PERFMOD enabled! great speed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fards Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Well PERFMOD enabled! great speed! I still think steve should have called it placebo, not perfmod... Theres no real world speed body from it, quadrant just reads from the cache. 161 is a bit smoother than 170 on ui because 170 has the kgsl perpage process disabled, to let badly written gameloft games to work... I have a kernel with it enabled and 170 it's faster smoother and more stable with it. Most of the issues ive seen reported so far are down to something the user has done, the menu on lockscreen is a but odd, but I still dont see any reason for pressing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't game at all and would like the smoothness of 1.6.1 back. @Steve Could you please give the option to re enable this for the users who don't game at all and want smoother performance please? Thanks Edited February 7, 2011 by mmmputch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest killerbz Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Okay 1st I would like to say that I love Steve's ROMs, but 1.7 has been giving me some issues. My install file has the following: Transparent Zeam (which I love by the way) us140 volboost bios noswype perfmod Everythign was perfect for the 1st few hours, then I started to get fc on the dialer everytime I used it, that resolved itself after an hour. Now today my phone is restarting over and over again and eating battery like crazy! The after about 5 restarts the screen goes black and I have to pull the battery to get it going again, only to have the restart issue start. I read all the posts and there was 1 mention of this issue, but nobody responded.......any suggestions...Fards/Steve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I also miss the smoothness of 1.6.1 and dont care about gameloft games. It would be nice to have this enabled again. (only game I care about is Angry Birds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get about 24-30 hours on 1.6.1 overclocked to 1.15 with moderate use and a few background apps running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
