XDAndroid runs so slow on HTC diamond

I have got the latest XDandroid from connect-utb.com,but I found it run sooooo slow on diamond.
It seems like that the android loaded many program on startup. They consume a lot of memory.
and it also become very slow after use for a long time.
Who can tell me how to manage the autoruns ? and how to solve the problem?

3 advices from PDA user:
-do not use bad software,
-do not buy bad devices,
-you need a phone, buy phone.

1. Download the newest kernel files, these are without debug stuff (glemsom.anapnea.net)
2. Use XDAndroid on a EXT2 partition (balsat.hopto.org)
3. Change the eclair.user.conf in your conf dir. Change cc_disksize=xx to 20.
Step three will solve your 'autostart' problem and prevent your phone from running slowly. 1 and 2 wil give you a performance boost.

can s/o help how to format internal storage of diam100 to ext2. All tutorials I found are bour SD cards only. Tried with partition manager but got error message...

when i enter cmd
type cd /adb
it says

you must enter superoneclick folder to acces adb.exe.
ex : "c:\superoneclick\adb shell" will work.

i'm done installinng it, but when i search and install an app from the market, my internal memory decrease.
did i done anything wrong here?

try Link2sd works on x8 > click here
Its very easy to install and better than app2sd !

WORKS!!!! thanks guys~
you guys the BEST!!
but one more thing, when i install an app, it save 80% of memory to sd,
and 20% of it in internal memory...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this is normal right?

Did you install the one that moves dalvik cache to card? I think it's pretty normal then. Mine is also like that.

i install it from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8579902#post8579902
but my internal memory decrease now...
i got 56Mb free space for internal storage..

So, you need to use that method with these files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880387
Otherwise cache is created into phone.

this means i have to uninstall current app2sd using the 'cmd' then
install back with 'app2sd mod (dalvik cache to sd) zip' into the root of my sd card right?

I guess so. It's your call. Check also in Android Development threads. use search There were some similar problems.

[Q] need help with x8, I am VERY confused.. some programs now dissapeared

hello people, this is my first post here. It's been a week since I got a new x8, and I can't seem to get going with it, I'm always hounded with problems. Before posting I looked up the web for possible answers on my questions and queries, but I found too many guides and I don't know which to follow. I'm a former symbian user, and to be honest I'm a little dissapointed with the android's complexity. Here are some of what i'm curious about.
-.JAR/JAVA programs. I could only find J2ME runner, but in order to convert my .jar to apk it needs to connect to the internet? Isn't there an offline process/another program that runs .jar files?
-CANNOT save to memory card. It's frustrating. all games I install come straight to the phone memory, is there a real way to transfer it to my memory card?
-NO multi-touch. I don't know why but upon reading I found out that an early prototype of the x8 had multi-touch, but now it has none.. any way to activate this?
-GAMES always demand to connect to the internet to download additional data.
-INTERNET connects automatically from the start, IDK why,
sorry If i have lots of questions, and sorry for my english it's not my native language.. Hope I get help here.. Thank you very much and I hope the developers here continue on excelling on their work.
EDIT: now I have managed to root using superoneclick, installed busybox, and the xrecovery. I managed to go to the recovery and install the apps2sd, it said successful but it still installs to phone memory. I now installed link2sd, did a partition on my sd card, but when I rebooted my x8 everything on the sd card was gone, and some of the programs installed on the phone memory doesn't display their icons.. what happened? I need help.. thank you again..

About the java programs, i do not know.
Saving to SD is not a feature in Android 2.1. However, you can get it to work by rooting your phone and installing Apps2sd. There is several guides here on how to do it.
The digitizer is capable for multi/dual touch, but this is something SE has not included in the latest software updates.
Some games needs additional data to be downloaded.
Internet is activated by default. By going into settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile network settings - And uncheck "Data Enabled" then you will be able to disable internet.

i didn't recommend you app2sd,dont know y coz i prefer link2sd..same function,but imho link2sd much better.

did u make backup of ur sd?..no prob..im free rite now

Yeah I have duplicates of the files on my hard drive, mostly they are apk game files. I'd try again my x8 later, something urgent came up.

the programs installed on the phone memory disappeared, and on the menu where they should be located the menu is empty. still I can't figure out why programs don't install in my memory card...

it seems like a huge problem..how bout repair it through pc companion?..but everything will be liked out of the box phone.

but this is what I did. I factory reset the phone, and I see that it is still rooted. Unfortunately I have to download from the marketplace again. Internet is very slow here. but from here, what do I do to install to memory card? thanks..

from what i noe,factory reset only clear your data and didnt touch your rom..if you want start form there..i recommend you to format ur sd card first..but backup all ur data first..use card reader to create the partition..create fat partition first then create ext2 partition..then install link2sd..let say u have 2gb sd..make 1.5gb to fat and balanced goes to ext2 partition..i dont recommend ext3 and ext4 partition..mybe there's is conflit..use MiniTool Partition Wizard to reformat and create the partition..i did it on the first try,everything goes fine.
or maybe u can used fat32 for second partition..when i read at the link2sd thread,fat32 been recognize by all phone..the thread has been updated,i used ext2 partition..and everything works fine till now..

im sory if my instruction bricked ur phone..im also a beginner,and am answering ur quest within my range of knowledge..what i've tell you here is what i've test on my phone and it didnt bricked my phone..

ok, I'm gonna try that and I'd feedback the results to you.. thanks.

good luck and be careful when messing ur phone ..remember to always backup before start,if anything goes wrong.

after lots of trials and errors, I have managed to get the links2sd working. now after I install a game, and I select create link in link2sd, will that automatically be transferred to the sd card?
and should I include the "include devlik cache"?

yes,for every application that u install..click create link and yes u should checked that include delvik cache ..i suggest u to install all app first then create link then reboot ur phone

[SUPPORT / REVIEW THREAD][11.08.08] Mioze7Ae's CyanogenMod with TI theme

Since i had a lot of PM of people who want explanation to install this ROM
I make this little thread for you.
Notice that i don t make this rom i only test it and make the nandroid image
to know more about that you can read the Mioze7Ae thread here
And for those asking for the performance I try almost all the rom and this is for me the fastest and (with the sileshn theme include) it s also the most beautiful...
I had between 70 to 80 Mo RAM available without swap. With swap i reach the 95 100Mo!!! (I attach my boot.img files too but it s the first fjfalcons').
Here you can find a tutorial to fastboot boot.img to enable swap.
And it works in multilangage (i don t know which but in english spanish and french without a problem)
To enable app on sd and swap you must have your sd part in this way: a fat32 part for the media / a ext3 part / and a swap part
You can find a video guide here on his channel(you will have to search a little but i remember its called 8min Linux...) made by reverendkjr
I make another image and i test it 3times (from sbf to the end...) so all works !!!!!!
For the beginners i will come back to the sbf.
1. SBF
So I m using the Singapore SBF I think you don t need it to get it work but it s better for those who have problem to change it too (it seems to work in every country)
So you can find the singapore sbf here
And you install it wiht RSDlite (do a google search): first put your phone in bootloader mode (when the phone is off you hold the camera and the volume up button while powering up) then you select your sbf and flash it.
2. Recovery
Now you have a fresh new system
You have to install the recovery
First of all you will have to install a file explorer form the market (you can use the one you want it will be deleted when flashing...)
Now you have to move the two apk(universal and root and openrecovery) i attach to this post in your sd
you can now install with your file explorer the apks.
Start with universal and root. Intall it and root your device.
Install the open recovery now. (Install it and install recovery system)
Now you must install Androidiani OpenRecovery I think it will work with out but it s easy and the recovery work better with it... So you just have to extract this zip to your sd (overwriting the similar files)
Now you have a working recovery. To launch it just go to open recovery and click on recovery boot (don t forget to copy the nandroid image folder in the sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery before you go to the recovery)
3. Restoring the nandroid image
Now you have a working AOR (androidiani openrecovery) and you have extract the attach nandroid image to sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery folder
Don t forget that nandroid need a folder name with out any space and in this folder you can only have .img or .md5 files.
So in Open recovery you go to nandroid / restore /
And if you don t change the folder name you must have CyanogenTI0808allupdates in the list
You select it and launch an restore all operation.
After that you come back to the first menu and wipe dalvik cache/ cache partition and wipe data / factory reset
Now you can reboot system. And it s done. Don t forget that the first boot is very long (about 5 or 6minutes)
CyanogenTI0808allupdates (the nandroid image)
(made and posted the 08/08/2011)
With all the new update from the official post (until the 08/08)
And the Twisted Inception theme from sileshn (with the update for the white text and the new battery icon)
You have to change the hour color (in settings / Cyanogen Mod / user interface / status bar) (from black to white)
Known issues:
- Fm Radio not working
- Media Gallery button not working
- Recovery boot (from the restart menu) don t work (you have to reboot holding the volume up button)
- Led notifications from the Cyanogen mod menu don t work but Led Me Know works
- Some users have issues with installing payed apps... I never have so....

Just a reminder to new readers: do not flash the fjfalcon boot.img. You have to use fastboot boot boot.img over USB every time.

Click to expand...

Without my apps i have 95 100Mo of free ram (with out the app2ext I have so nearly 100 apps and it take some ram...)
But with all my apps and with the swap enable I can get between 70 to 80Mo
I don t use advtaskkiller anymore i think it use more ram that it can free
I use autokiller memory optimizer (it change the settup of the android task killer so no useless use of ram) and to kill my apps i use the Go task manager (a widget from the golauncher app)

wat u set at the autokiller memory optimizer?

Optimum settings.
But maybe someone have others settings better?
I know some use minfreemanager (already in the rom) but it seems the same than autokiller

b4 reboot the cm6 room was pretty stable... y after i reboot thn it started to freeze?

my 1st fastboot was pretty stable.. can run asphalt6... but the next time ll freeze... bcuz i install chainfire3d have to reboot and i have to fastboot again

even with fast boot i m only getting around 50mb of ram

Here is my Autokiller settings (user set, not pre-set and no fastboot). The work for me after many days/weeks of trial, error and monitoring.

I don't do a lot of gaming but I do listen to quite a bit of online media.
I average around 65-75mb all the time and at the very least 55mb when running Tune-in or Jango radios or Poweramp (memory hog btw but really good media player).
Side note: keep you widgets to a minimum. They eat RAM.

i just encounter some prob when swaped... for the 1st time i swaped it work fine and smooth all the way and no freezing but later on i reboot and try to swaped again my xt started to freeze when run certain apps...

i don't know about that, I went without widgets for the longest time cause everybody always told me how they eat ram and battery. Now for the past month or so I have had 1-2 widgets on each of my home pages and I really don't see much change. I am keeping the same amount of ram available and battery seems to drain the same. Not much difference, but I could be wrong I would have to go back to no widgets for a day or 2 and monitor my ram to be positive. I do know it isn't nearly as bad as what people say that kept me from using them to begin with.

I use both minfree and autokiller and they seem to work together, I set my autokiller and minfreemanager automatically copies the settings. Don't know if it does much good but doesn't do any harm. It seems to work good

Think of it this way. Say you have a 4x2 or 4x4 widget that is oh say MSNBC or Reuters newsfeed or your Facebook/G+ feed. These not only tax you home screen memory but they are always "running" too. If you have something like Widgetlocker where you can customize your lock screen and put apps or link on it directly, I have found that it munches free RAM really bad (14-17mb). So much so that I don't use it anymore (paid app too).
All a widget is is really just a custom icon that either monitors a running app/service, in which case it itself is running. Or it is running on its own, like a clock or feed or some kind.
Something like mClock or Battstat isn't too harsh, but 3rd party Keyboards can be quite draining too (I use Better kb and it is around 11mb but I like it and have had it since day one).
Good way to check is to go to Settings->Apps->Running Services and each will have the MB on the far right. Anything in double digits is hungry for your RAM.
I know you use that Go widget. Check out how much RAM it is using by going into settings and see if it is worth having it on there. Might be. You seem to be getting good RAM so is it aint broken don't fix it.
