Using the R2BA023 firmware I tried to run GLBenchmark and An3DBenchmark. The first just showed a black screen when running the benchmark, and the latter force closed on opening, when at least An3DBenchmark used to work (on R1FA016, I think).
Also, when playing HyperJump, there is a lot of flickering going on - has SE made the drivers worse?
If you know of a way to fix this, please help.

Has anyone else had problems with this device locking up / running very slow? It only seems to happen when I launch a new app, but it doesn't seem to depend on which app it is. The device just has a go-slow and usually needs a soft-reset. Opening they keyboard does not rotate the screen any more, but does draw some pretty weird icons on the side of the screen ;-)
Interested to hear other people's experiences before I start digging to try and discover the cause.
Thanks

Mine seems to be running pretty well. Occasionally it'll slow down a little but not enough to affect running apps etc. I've not really had any more than a one second delay with screen rotation. Have you got the O2 Active UI installed?

Nope. It was awful with O2Active installed (as usual). Mine is configured in "basic" mode.
wizrd running slow
You have an 200Mhz device running WM2005.The ROM is not a final one ... improvments for o2 active are still made ( by the way the software is for unexperienced users mostly if you carefully read the setup panel)...So you just have to wait for the entire software to get improved
I just sold my XDA Exec and bought an SPV M600 and I'm loving it!
It actually fits in my pocket and does pretty much everything the Exec did - plus the battery life is SOOOOOOOOO much better.
My only gripe is this: occassionally when I turn it on, it freezes for about 5-10 seconds. I'm usually tapping away at the screen during this time, and after 5-10 seconds it "catches up" and processes all my taps and basically goes mad opening stuff up.
It has been doing this this since I bought it - usually 2 or 3 times a day so I doubt it's any of the software I've installed.
I'm using the latest Dopod ROM.
I'm have Magic Button, the batteystatus plug in (my device is overclocked to 260mhz from 195mhz using OMAP), TodayScheme Changer and I'm also using the Launcher plug in.
If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it, this isn't a major problem but I'd like to solve it anyway,
Thanks.
Have you tried your Prophet without all those apps installed? Specially the TodayTheme Changer and BatteryStatus plugin since those two apps run on the today screen and that's pretty much the first thing that hogs the system bigtime, specially on the slow prophet.
I know you have overclocked it but today plugins tend to overload the processor a lot.
Obviously there's some process that's taking some time to release the system. This I've never seen on mine, but I'm sure you have some app that's causing this.
Just a thought.
Thanks for your reply Rayan, but I also had this problem before I had installed anything. To be fair it hasn't been doing it much lately so I reckon I can live with the odd delay now and again.
Mine s freezes when i Install Net Framework 2 , can anyone have the same situation ? I think the problem is Net Framework 2.0 ...
I don't have Net Framework 2 installed. I found that Magic Button wasn't closing Internet Explorer properly, so I reinstalled it and it works much better now. I think IE was the main culprit. Are there any decent browsers out there? I tried Opera but didn't really get on with it.
try NetFront I like !
Where to begin....
I have had my wiz for about a year now (maybe longer) and everything was running fine. Nothing special installed really. I've Sim and CID unlocked, flashed to 1.1 and then flashed again to Mr. Frazzz's XDA Mobile 6 (awesome btw) and had been running that for quite some time with battery status as the only other thing I've really added.
One night I was out and managed to hit my touch screen on a table and it shattered. Things ran fine for a while (could still see considering the touch is seperate from the LCD) and managed to use it as a phone using shortcut keys. Then i started getting problems like slowing down etc and I figured it was partially due to the duress of a cracked touch screen making the phone think it was having a part of the screen pushed (or not there) so i finally had the screen, both the touch and lcd, replaced. Shortly after, I noticed the phone would freeze up randomly. (this is also about the time i switched from t-mobile to at&t prepaid) Sometimes it would do it 3 or 4 times a day and the only remedy is removing the battery. Sometimes it will go for over a week without any issues. Any ideas? Im ready to melt it.
Here's what I've done thus far with no results:
Reflashed to official t-mobile 2.26 and then flashed to Mr. Frazzz's WM6. I've re-installed battery status and then came across a thread stating that the latest version of which might be causing hangups....so i gimped it at first, using only settings I had known to work before with no issues and later uninstalled the whole thing. Still having the same problems.
I have the WM6 radio fix for cingular and 2.69.11 radio as well.
One thing I do notice is that, everytime i make a call and receive the system message stating what that call had cost me, it can cause weird things to happen if I was in the process of doing something else. Not sure that's part of the issue though considering the phone will just be sitting in my pocket when it does randomly freeze.
Is it possible that my mem card is just being jostled and causing issues? or that somehow the powerbutton is being adversely affected inside my pocket if the phone gets flipped upside down? Anyone and everyone's imput would be greatly appreciated, especially if Mr. Frazzz has any input. BTW, this has happened using both WM6r3 and r5 by Mr. Frazzz. I upgraded to r5 this last time i reinstalled WM6.
I'm guessing battery status is doing it. Same thing happended to me, did a hard reset, installed all my programs again excluding battery status and everything is fine.
Is there something else I can install that will overclock for me when the phone is active and kick down the speed when idle?
I also used battery status for the disable proxy thingie when wiFi is on.
Well...Overclocking is never safe and the manufacture of a cpu has clocked a cpu at a set speed. Why, because it is more stable. So anything past the stable speed will bound to be unstable. I overclock mine to 260 and still do not notice a boost so either you leave it at 195 and run smoothly or make it "faster" and have more issues. Your call.
hi,
does GfxBoost v1.1 work on the x1.
0.7 seemed to install but did not noticed difference
1.0 made my handset go wrong so had to uninstall
anyone know the result for 1.1?
Hi,
I have had it installed for a week, so far I could detect no problem (maybe my X1 does consume battery faster, but I haven't investigated yet if it comes from this program).
I did notice some improvement in opera and WM6.5 which are just smoother, but do not expect your X1 to turn into an iphone
well... maybe it does work on some roms, however on my r2a generic uk it's enabled and active, but no visible gain in performance. xtract looks and feels the same (fast and fluent even with music on), nothing changed with opera and mobile shell 3 fells bit more choppy. uninstaled that and xperia is even smoother than with it, so...
I am not saying that this doesn't work. the truth is that I cannot notice it.
not sure if im doing something wrong. but i have tested this in itje final 7 and valkryie v1 and in both roms i gain speed in touchflo and album if i disable it. i keep it disabled all the time now. the animations are clearly choppier when enabled
are there any hard numbers that shows any level of improvement
so now we have 3 kinds of accelerators that are not included in stock (and most cooked) ROMs:
-openVG
-ATI openGL drivers
-GfxBoost
TBH, i dont see any noticeable performance increase in any of them. as mentioned above, gfxBoost makes certain things chippier when its enabled
we really need the opnion of an expert here to shed more light on this subject
Hi,
I'm using I9000XXJP3 Froyo Firmware and I have noticed since the day i bought this phone till today, every time i set the time on my mobile it doesn't keep up and in few hours have 5 mins difference and normally phone clock is always behind actual time.
Anyone who face this problem or know what could be the reason or a solution?
This has been posted many times so yes, they are. That's only one reason why the Froyo firmware is still considered a beta/alpha..
The solution is to use stable firmware..The reality is that you can hack away at the tiny bugs of the froyo pre-release, but unless you require the new API, you'd be better off just downgrading for now (there are numerous other problems too, like MobileAP).
It's possible that they added something to detect clock skew though (to provide more accurate clock), and it isn't completely working yet, so it's compensating with the wrong amount.
Or just the drivers might be buggy..
