Xoom development

I bought a Motorola xoom cause it seemed full of potential but there does,nt seem to be much in the way of custom development for this device, anyone else noticed it seems to be a little slow compared to other devices,

While I love a good discussion, I.thought it might be helpful for you to read and digest this very recent thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230867
If you have something to add after reading this one, why not add to the original thread, which will put it back on the front page.

A new way to reduce lag

Hey guys so I found this in my evo lte forum and it seems to help quite a bit with lag and especially the keyboard lag that some have reported. It is a simple apk to use and it is universay, it also helpsmout with freeing up more ram.

Looks promising, I will read more later.

Thanks, I will try it. Presently the lag is mitigated by the use of SwiftKey- no lag at all.

Please read the related article post on XDS site, this is not a sure shot way and it will increase your battery usage as it keeps the CPU active irrespective of it being used or not. Will not advice this to be used atleast at its present state

Agree anyone not reading the thread in in full is asking for trouble on this old news that has been posted before and discredited . It even got a post on the portal .

Order vs. Chaos

I do not know if I missed something essential but I really would appreciate if the admins of S3 I9300 would split the developer thread into two threads. One which hold all the ROMS and another that hold all the MODS, KERNEL, ETC.
As the thread grows its getting more and more cluttered. Sometimes I just like to brows through the ROMS and try some of them out and sometimes when I am satisfied with the current ROM I would like to gather some random mods.
A question: Does anyone know how to mod the CM10.1 so that I get more reboot options and more importantly the option to shut down apps by holding the back button?

A chaotic post...
All forums on XDA are similarly ordered, to not be chaotic. Just read the description of each subgroup, to find what is where. It's pretty self explanatory really. Also read the stickies that lists and links to popular ROM, kernels, themes etc.
Best asking in a CM thread, for CM related questions.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Vote chaos......but then I would... I'm an anarchist!

Why not just search threads for [ROM] or [MOD]???

CM has hidden the reboot options toggle in the dev settings. Higher security and all that.

I do see what he means, for example the XDA app search is terrible you can only search they entire board not specific forums which makes looking for something on your phone a nightmare.

Chaos vs Order
@OP:
I think that mods of XDA could have time for such request, if users would not create mess elsewhere, for example, by asking questions in General section.

Wow. £2 is nothing for such a quality app as Tapatalk. Really, a bottle of Coke costs more.
And unlike a bottle of Coke, Tapatalk lasts a lifetime..

I'm not sure political debates are allowed on XDA

The only forum that is on tapatalk I use right now is XDA, the XDA app is based on Tapatalk anyway so it's technically just as good, the only reason Tapatalk will be better is because it supports more forums.

Because I'm interested in professional way:
a person who claims the chaos, while creating it by himself.
Well, I normally would count for 120 pounds per hour for session of patient with schizophrenia, but will make discount for you.

Why not ask in that specific thread?

Because it's more likely to get a wider audience as a new thread, if you have no input, why comment?

I had a very clear input for you - that you should ask in the specific thread for that ROM.

Let me rephrase that - since I have no idea about your specific ROM I can not say if it is a problem very specific to that or if you are another clueless guy who did not care to read the rules of this forum starting with the first one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=2494

Maybe I am clueless, maybe I don't spend enough time trolling other peoples posts? If you've nothing constructive to offer then why bother? Asking why I've asked the question is totally irrelevant if I've already asked it! Don't you have some star trek annuals to alphabetise or something?

And yes I did read the rules, but like most people on here I'm not infallible, is forgetting a simple rule a hanging offence? The problem here is someone with nothing better to do than pick up on others mistakes! A petty one at that.. If I wanted trolling I'd of asked on twitter, seems I made the mistake of thinking most people on here were helpful rather than critical..

Use uTorrent, I see you are using the Vuze client which causes issues with some models.

aTorrent is the best client by far!

Well used it and it said one folder was 3gb and stuff

Sometimes when you flash ROMs the tablet gets confused as to how much memory is available I've heard of it plenty times when going back to stock usually a factory reset or if that doesn't work reflashing the ROM. You need to get the tablet to reevaluate how much storage it has. It currently thinks it a 16gb version.

Might I suggest that future inquiries for your device should be directed to the 2013 forums so that you don't get the wrong information considering the 2 devices are so different from each other

So you would be OK if this person took some advice from you specific to the 2012 and applied it to their 2013 model? And if it bricked it?

Considering that this person only asked about how to free up space on his Nexus, I doubt that would have happened. Of course I would have offered direction to the proper forum if it was something critical. I didn't find it surprising at all that after a few members jumped in to help, your post had be the one letting him know that he shouldn't be in this thread, nevermind any advice on his issue. But it seems that every time I run into one of your posts, it is almost never helpful yet very terse and usually rude. Most of your answers are either about the member being in the wrong sub forum or that they didn't read the changelog. It's almost like spam being posted over and over.

I made a thead about this in the general section I think we need to change the forum title. Not much danger in this case but a 2012 ROM or kernel on a 2013 device would be a pain in the a$$ to fix.

My point exactly.
If we were to wait to inform the op that he was in the wrong forum until after he had done something like that, it would have been irresponsible of us to not head him off at the pass and try to prevent such a thing.
There was nothing rude in this thread until someone wanted to play keyboard cowboy because they had a grudge against me.

Let's just try and be polite to each other @Pirateghost is correct I should have pointed out he was in the wrong forum before giving advice.
