I have a problem with the X10 a week ago I got a software update to version R2BA026 and since then the phone is behaving strangely that is to say:
- Uses a battery at an alarming dumb
- Not forgetting that during the conversation is too quiet
- Slow as a snail have to wait before doing anything
- When will the picture and comes up with the camera no longer refresh the application "desktop" or watch stops, the battery level does not change, nothing happens
- Very often you reboot your phone to be able to use it anyway
We ask all of you give some effective solutions ... dressing to restoring the factory settings ... Recommend some programs like launcher, weather widget, etc.
try repair true SEUS
I agree with doing a Repair / Reset. Use Sony Ericsson Update Service not PC Companion.
Also sounds like you need to look at the apps / widgets you've got running. If you do a clean reset then only reinstall one at a time to make sure that there isn't one thats messing with your phone. (I had a battery monitor widget that was just eating my battery like no tomorrow)
So reset the phone :-\ can recommend proven applications?

Don't use any task killer, that will save your battery and prevent the clock problem....
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...
Erm I don't think you should worry about more applications at mo til ya make some progress with the current situation.
I think you can try fiddle with settings such as turning gps, wifi, 3g n bluetooth of when not in use..
Avoid gps sharing location and try avoid auto sync!
Do manual updates for apps or if ya prefer automatic try make the update interval more reasonable..
Go into sound n display n change brightness to manual.. u won't need it really bright!
I'm sure more people wil giv ya more tips.. I'm jus working on theme at mo but thought I'd share some basic pointers.. altho u prob knew them anyway lolz
Hope it works out for ya!!
P.s - im sure blank sd card is fine.. wel its worked for me before!.. also im using 026 root, your description would sound nothing like mine cuz all is well on my side xcept for the in call volume that is!

Holla,
What is the advantage of using more recent versions of Android compared to older ones? I have a HD2 with Android 2.2.1, is there any purpose to update it with Gingerbread?
Warmest regards from a stoked HD2 user.
To be honest, I found very little difference with Gingerbread. I did end up going back to a Froyo build though because there were a number of apps that didn't work with Gingerbread, or they did but not fully.
I liked the keyboard and the notification bar, but that was about it. Let's face it, they can be changed anyway!
I think the only real difference I've seen is the text editing where you can select text more easily. Other than that, it's just personal preference. I'm sticking with it though

EXT4 file system? newer modem?

The differences between froyo and gingerbread are minimal. if you are such a fanatic (like me) who want to have the best of the best, you should updated. Otherwise it would be better to keep froyo on your phone, because its faster (300 or more points more in quadrant) and all apps work with froyo. gb is a lil bit unstable (however) and 40% of all apps won' work with gb. the new keyboard looks better but it's annoying to have so small buttons on this keyboard with such a big screen. i don't use the stock keyboard and notification bar is not as amazing as people say. believe me, kepp up froyo for maybe 2 months and then you can think about changing ^^
Thanks
Thanks dudes for all the feedback! Guess I will stay with my setup I have, I thought games and graphics ran smoother with a new release.
Cheers,
Mike
I haven't encountered a single app that is incompatible. Which apps are you guys referring to?

I had a few that didn't work, but couldn't tell you now what they are other than 1 for sure.
I use SwitchPro (very configurable power widget) and half of the toggles stopped working. For example, if I clicked the GPS toggle it did nothing. At first I thought it was because GPS didn't work on the build I was using, but if I went into settings I could turn it on there without a problem, and it worked fine.
Like I said, there were a few apps I noticed wouldn't work, but that's the only one I can remember.

I know one that doesn't fully work. it's AirSync DoubleTwist its not compatible with GB yet, it gives you "Network Error" when you try to connect wirelessly. But when I switched back to Froyo it works again.

I think the browser on gingerbread is faster and more responsive compared to froyo in opening pages and all that stuff

Move it to your phone
Settings / applications / manage apps / click on angry birds / move to phone
I find some other apps do the same, usually one's with Widgets keep them on your phone and you should have no problems
gingerbread is smooth & fast, and compatibility is accepted

It works, thanks!! I have a question: is any app or system settings to my HD2, who's give me a capability to run games from sd card ?
I'm gonna wait until there's more app compatibility, as right now I don't really see any big reasons to switch yet. I also don't 100% trust ext4 yet, as I've encountered the known issues with large files on my Ubuntu server(which may just be due to Ubuntu implementation). I doubt it would crop up on the HD2, but still...
Gingerbread 2 major chances are :
OpenGL ES2.0 (not backwork compatible with 1.1)
Built in SIP client (Enterprise usage)
other than those two, the rest are fixes.
i have the same prob as miod3k... do i hav to shift the apps to phone for it to work...i mean my other apps lik palringo n facebook n stuff lik that r in the sd card...
When I run Android on my Leo the battery was discharge very fast(about 8 hours). Do you now what the problem is ?
Hi!! I have a problem, I'm currently Running Darky's 10.1 with dark core 2.6... Everything is smooth and snappy, however the system keeps killing my launcher everytime I launch an application whether it be a game, browser, news app... Whenever I exit the app the launcher reloads and it makes the phone really really slow and laggy for 10-15 seconds...
I currently using ZEAM launcher, not sure whats causing this, i've been using this launcher since its launch and only had this problem when i was on stock froyo...
Any ideas what can be done to fix this issue...
Thanks!!
Same problem here.
I am on GigerReal 7.1.3 and the worse thing is when it you try to make a phone call and the bloody thing just restarts the phone every third key pressed.
I can only call using voice calling when this happens...
I am using LauncherPro but it also happens in Ginger Launcher and TW Launcher 4.5
Just out of interest guys, how much free memory is showing for you in Settings > Applications > Running Services ?
I am running stock JVQ and although the phone works fine after initial boot (with around 180mb free) this number seems to drop over time and results in any new application clearing any other app from the memory. This even meant that if I got a text message while using the web browser and replied to it, by the time I went to return to the browser it had to reload where I was from scratch. It was also clear that after playing a game and returning to the home screen, even this was having to reload and "redraw" again.
That in itself is a minor annoyance but eventually it seemed to get so bogged down the whole system froze with the "black screen of death" and I had to do a forced reboot. I'm aware, of course, that JVQ is not an official release so it's not fair to be too harsh on Samsung here...
I seem to have a lot of memory free. It happens after the phone has been up for some time.
I noticed that launcher pro was reloading the widgets every time it starts. Also i seem to notice that it happens when you dial a couple of numbers and it starts giving you suggestions from the contacts. So it could be contact related?

This is the same that happens on my system... The launcher just reloads all the widgets everytime I close an application... the amount of ram is always close to 243/337.. So its close to 90-100 mb free, which is enough i suppose... Still the launcher just reloads everytime an app is closed... Its really getting annoying...
basicly you must set HOME_APP_ADJ to 0 making home app unkillable =)
am not sure but probably do that
/data/local.prop -> add such line ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0
and restart - have not tested just pure theory (the .prop location)

Actually, putting the value as 1 worked better for me. My launcher so far has not been killed even once.
ya 1 should work flawlesly
0 is making it bulletproof/unkillable at any state
but 1 should be safest value
I think Spare Parts allows you to adjust the task killer's sensitivity. Maybe have a play with that and relax the settings.

Attached is an APK which adds that line. Make sure you're rooted first. I wrote it in the past 10 minutes, so it's very simple and might crash, but it did work for me.
Just install it, launch it, confirm root and then watch out for a small message. If successful it will directly ask you to uninstall it. Reboot, and done.
there is also ro.HOME_APP_MEM that can be changed to 4096
to follow other oom_adj=1 settings =)
@martino2k6
Thanks a lot dude... The apk installed perfectly... I'm already seeing improved performance from my device... The launcher hasn't been killed once since the install...
Thanks again for all your help... appreciate it...

Try changing the lowmemoty killer setting to something less aggressive. Your phone is trying to keep too much free memory so has to kill off apps.
Download Galaxy Tuner (using memory manaber option)and set the application cache values to the new samsung default as follows:-
fa=10 MB
va=16 MB
ss=20 MB
ha=24 MB
cp=28 MB
ea=32 MB
Make a note of your current settings in case it doesnt help.
You can also use Galaxy Tuner to set JEWE's file system cache
, settings are:-
SWP: 50
VCP: 10
DEC: 5
DWC: 10
DRA: 90
DBR: 5
These work well for me so give them a whirl, you can always put the values back to where they are now.
mate the problem is solved already - please read dont spam those juwe crappy values ok ?
Ok, cool

Cache problem, try change the Class2 MicroSD to more higher like Class4 or Class10.
Must be app related. I always check if there's a lag after installing an application. And whenever there is one, I remove it right away, like some timescape additional extension I downloaded, it made my settings menu lagging.
Done that, did a fresh Installation and tried my Samsung class 10 sd nothing changes

Have you tried v6 Supercharger? (See my signature)
Yeah already tested that and it still lags like hell..
Could you post a video of this lag?
Best thing to do if you can't figure out what's causing the lag is to factory data reset.. start from a clean install.
you may use Fast Reboot Pro also.. its a small prog that free's memory everytime you unlock your screen (configurable)
Sometimes it will free more than 100mb of used RAM

what I/O scheduler you use?
I would really like to post a video of this lag, but at the moment i've no cam that works.. well i tried using that program, but it doesn't really change anything.. I started from a cleaninstall yesterday, but nothing changes.. and my I/O scheduler is just standard(deadline i guess) .. I appreciate your help till now guys !
There are few things you can do. Since you said you have overclocked your bootloader should be unlocked. So flash this package. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249387 and see if that improves it. (OR)
Download Script Manager from Market
Download the "V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.sh.txt" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15948434&postcount=1127 and copy it to your SD card
Do NOT run the V6 SuperCharger install script at boot!
2. Load the script (V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.sh.txt) into Script Manager and select "Run as Root."
3. Touch the screen for the soft keyboard or slide out the keyboard and get SuperCharged! Select "MegaRAM 2" then choose Nitro Lag Nullifier
4. Then click setting menu, choose config mode, u will see a check box named "browse as root", tick that box
5. Go to data/ and run 99SuperCharger.sh install script at boot and reboot your device
Then download SetXperia (If you have SetCPU uninstall it) then change the I/O schedule to "Noop" and select the CPU Governor SmartAssV2. Min - 122 and Max 1578 Now see if you feel any difference
Tested that now, and it really improved the performance, thanks man ! the lag is gone
thanks to everyone else for helping me !
Nice! Thank's for the tuto for supercharger.

Your Welcome
Not sure how many of ya have faced similar issues with your S8 and apps. I will share some experienced by wife and myself.
Stock email app : lags the phone badly at times, and in worst case scenarios, it totally hangs the phone. Need to do hard reset using volume n power keys. This is a horrible glitch, cos the app is a pretty good email app.
Instagram : lags the phone occasionally. Does not load any pics or the screen, just does black blank. At least no reset required.
Candy crush : ( dont judge us!!!) Very slow loading.
Syncing issues with your fitness apps.
And lastly, SD card as a storage option for the camera never works. You may select it as your storage location, but after a few shots an error msg will appear and revert you back to Internal Storage. The sd card seems to be working fine on its own as a storage medium.
Do share if you face the same problems or more.
Hope a patch/fix ia released soon.
Thanks.
I use Instagram and 256gb sd card for my photos. I've not experienced any of these issues. I would try a factory reset and or replacement. I know it's extremely hard to believe you have 2 phones doing it though. So I'm not sure what's going on. Other than a rouge app causing issues. Maybe delete one of those apps one at a time and see if one of those are the problem before factory reset. Hope that helps.

I have the problem as well, all games lag and even an old Oppo outdoes this s8.
So frameskips a lot, not smooth. Have to use game tuner to reduce screen resolution to 35 percent to get decent gaming
Remove SD card completely and check if issues persist.
Checkout this thread. There's an app mentioned called SD Card Monitor, found out my S8 was essentially ejecting the card very frequently.

General lags
Hi everyone,
don't know if this helps but after approx. 3 weeks of use I had terrible lags with my unbranded galaxy S8 (slow app start, general lags during operation, very un-smooth scrolling etc.). It runs on stock Rom, no root. Uninstalled any unnecessary apps, still no cure. Deleted cache partition through the service menu, but the lags persisted. Then I read somewhere that the app "all in one gestures" I installed to remap the Bixby button might be the cause. Uninstalled it, wiped cache partition again an rebooted my phone. Since then the problem disappeared, phone runs smooth as silk even with multitasking an a lot of ram consuming apps open.
Hope this is useful to some of you.

Hi!
I didn't uninstall Bixby, I uninstalled an app used to "remap" the Bixby button in order not to start Bixby upon pressing it. I had it set to launch the camera. Somehow it interfered with Samsungs launcher and made it terribly slow...
