Ok I just flashed glite last night and everything is working fine except swype...I reinstalled swype off a backup and when I try to use the keyboard it instantly force closes. I even tried a different apk. Any ideas? I'm lost I like glite but if I can't get swype working ill probably go back to ota gb rooted. Also how the hell to I access the oc deamon on glite?
Have you tried fixing permissions? Also, the OC Daemon can be accessed through the Virtuous OC apk. It's somewhere in the forums >.<
Ok ill look for it. And yea I tried fixing permission, but that ran literally all night I canceled it when I woke up 8 hours later cuz I think it was just looping.

so I tried getting the beta from swype but the installer just gives me a parsing error. This is really frustrating. And looking for an apk is worse...I'm really regretting romming my phone with this rom. Not only that it freezes randomly...I did a proper install, when it does freeze and I go to pull the battery it is way hot! Anyways priority number one is swype, if I can't get that working I'm flashing my nandroid backup. All I really wanted was OC and possibly better battery life. Oh well any help?

Have not personally used G-Lite but Ive heard good things about it, Is it only with G-Lite that your battery runs hot? Sounds to me there is a problem with your phone/battery and that is causing the freezing,G-Lite is not overclocked by default so how did you get the OC deamon installed?I would try reflashing G-Lite and leave the OC out of it and see if that helps
Actually i did try that, and from my understanding it comes overclocked already to 1 ghz fresh from flashing. In either case i tried turning it up and down with setcpu, leaving the oc out, and pretty much everything i can think of to no avail. Anyways i re flashed my backup so I'm good right now but I also heard great things, but oh well guess it just didn't work out for me. Plus getting swype to work was impossible! lol i tried several different methods and had no luck so I just gave up I really wanted overclock, but I dont want to compromise swype or the reliability of the stock rom I'm running right now.
maybe when a 1.0.4 comes out? Hows xboarder mod compared to the stock ota pre-rooted?
You can try meXdroidRom! Its really fast and butter smooth, and you can choose to have the stock Android theme installed if you want.
Also comes with Swype built in too!

Sign up to get the beta at http://beta.swype.com the old installers will give you the parsing error, or try it while connected to a more reliable connection like wifi.
You will need to uninstall swype that you currently have on the device, but it will work fine.
I will install the gamut of ROM's every once in awhile, but glite keeps pulling me back because of the battery life.
I did try the website and it was a nogo used wifi too and tried like 5 times oh well. I really want it to work
I just really need my phone working for work boo...anyways so any other rock solid roms out there basically stock launcher and theme?
Also oc and battery life and swype is a must! Lol

The Virtuous OC Daemon is included in Glite 1.0.3. Edit the files in /system/etc/virtuous_oc manually, or use the OC Beater app that was linked previously. Swype is also built into the ROM; however, it automatically uninstalls itself if you're installing Glite and aren't in the US (by design).
If you delete all traces of Swype (use Titanium Backup) then install the version from the Swype website, it will work just fine.
Glite is a VERY solid ROM, and you'd be hard-pressed to find something with better battery life. A 1.0.4 version should eventually be made available that merges in Tmo/HTC's latest 2.3.4 base.
Hope that helps.

I superwiped, and am living in the us and it still didn't install swype. I did get the rom off their official site so maybe it was that. The md5 checked out hmm maybe I'll give it another go. I enabled stock launcher and theme. So all good there.
I really want the updated version though...lol when!? Jk
Well reinstalled it today and wiped 3 times with superwipe and recovery wipe plus the roms autowipe. Got swype working finally I'm in the process of restoring apps. I know restoring system data is trouble but would restoring things like my wallpaper, bookmarks etc also cause problems I really. Don't wwant to setup my homescreens again! Lol

Hey everyone.. If someone can help me with this i wld really appreciate it.. I have a MT3G 32B n i have the Manups 2.1 ROM installed on MT3G.. It runs smooth sometimes.. In other words i get a few FOrse Closes sometimes which kinda sucks that and my keyboard always gets a force close as well n sometimes the Keyboard just wont work n i wold have to turn off the phone n turn it back on.. But the main problem i have with it is sometimes ill be using a program and all of the sudden my phone freezes then it will shut off n restart itself which kinda sucks n gets annoying sometimes.. Ok Ok it gets annoying alot lol.. i really like the Manups ROM but that makes me frustrated when it freezes then restarts itself.. Is there a way to fix this so i dont get so many force closes n my phone to restart it self on its own.. Please help..
MT3G 32B
Radio: 2.22.19.26I
SPL: 1.33.2005
Recovery: RA-v1.6.2 (File name was: recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2G.img)
ROM: ManUps 2.1 ROM
Just incase you needed the info on the phone..
I would try starting from scratch; wipe, and reflash the ROM. Yeah, it's a pain in the a** to reinstall all of your apps, but it sounds like it's frustrating to use.

Just a heads up, since you have root access, you can download for free, "Backup for Root Users" from the market, its great, can select all sorts of things to backup but the best is "Apk's" which is your apps, so this way when your like me and prolly 99% of everyone else you can just open your File manager and open the "Backup" folder and install from there, instead of searching one by one from market, and waiting for it to download and then install...

Hey guys. First off, I HAVE searched already, and found this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637419
I've tried it, and all I get is a continuous bootloop no matter how many times I reboot.
So, basically I'm running IC3 ROM, which is based off the newest DC. I am only using Launcher (no Launcher 2 or Sense), so Sense won't give me problems. Has anyone found another way to enable JIT? I remember I found one once that worked back when I was using Fresh, but I can't find it for the life of me.

Make sure you disable HTC Sense, use helix or nexus launcher.
Also try to wipe dalvik after enabling it.
Alright I'll try that. I'm just using the plain Launcher that comes with Vanilla, so I shouldn't have problems from that.
Hmm still no go. Any idea what the problem could be? Could you try enabling JIT on IC3 ROM and see what happens when you do it?
All,
Finally decided to root yesterday and have been monitoring the ROM's in the development section. I'm torn between the CyanogenMod and Iced Glacier. From what I'm reading the CyanogenMod is still a RC and not official yet and Iced Glacier is still using the sense interface.
I use this phone for work ie Touchdown and need something super stable that won't crash on me every other day. What ROM would you recommend that I try? Some keys for me is stability, dialer is functional(hated the MT4G dialer), contacts, camera and Touchdown definitely will need to work.
Thanks for any info.
I'm using iced and no issues. Everything works. Jus flash gorrillas latest kernel with it. I believe its 1.02? V.5(the one that came with the iced rom) froze on me alot when I oc past 1.4
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
The best answer is to make a nandroid backup, and try all of the roms. They're all pretty damn stable at this point, its just a matter of personal opinion. CM6 is still an RC, but a lot of people, myself included, are using it ads their daily driver with no issues at all.
I have been using the CM RC2 as of now .. i didnt care much for the other ones due to it was exactly like what i had already .. with the apps removed and so fourth .. seemed like a lot of setup for nothing .. and with cyanogen rom it is not the same stock ROM .. different. This has his settings, which i like. I think this may be the version where people are saying video playback has been an issue and i have had absolutely no issues with the video playback thru stock player or youtube at all .. no forces closes and everything seems to be working fine with this one so far.
But ya the best advice has already been said .. try them all ... thats what people do when they arent sure about something .. they try it .. obviously what i did . or i couldnt tell you about it.
Thanks all! I think I'm going to be trying the CM ROM. Thanks for all the advice.
dont know what im doing
i dont know what i'm doing, but i do believe i rooted my phone, downloaded titanium back, rom manager, visionary super user, setcpu, and super user. but cant seem to get my phone in recovery screen mode. please help

Does this work if you've installed some skins, like the Crysis Sensation? I saw that someone said there could be some crashes etc if using TW4. Anyone noticed any problems?
As stated in title, stock jvk from samfirmware and no themes. Led fix and crt off animation the only add ons.
Totally smooth. 2 homescreens only and no fc's.
Not sure either but I used the first zip in the link and it might be deodexed. Still it is very nice.

hurray! but is it like the ACTUAL sgs2?
I update TW4 to the last version present in its thread, it's simply amazing, fast , smooth and beautiful, the best you expected from the new galaxy s II, the amazing thing is that work BETTER than TW3 on our galaxy S!
I suggest to try it, without doubt
It work fine on JVB, i use a deodex rom stock (made with kitchen ;-) ) with CF root 3.1 kernel
It work fine also with modd like 5lockscreen (but read the topic before try)
You can also continue to use crt off, glow scroll and other fix already installed.
before flash i suggest to put in SD card a "sos package" to use in case of bootloop so you can flash back to your configuration.
Also suggest to install alternative launcher you prefer, and DON'T check "use always" so if you got problem with TW4 homescreen, you can push back key, choose other launcher and maybe try some fix direct with root explorer (for example)
i hope you find my post useful!

Seems like it to me. Just like the tw4 clips on YouTube. Multitouch works perfectly and all widgets and screens act the same too.
To add more apps to dock you have to tap on apps icon. Then menu then edit. Then add the desired app icons like phone, messages,etc by holding on app and dragging it next to app icon as the rubbish bin is now in the usual area to add icons in tw3.
When installed tw4 it only has app icon in dock.
Took a while to work out. Ha.
Awesome launcher.
Was originally using gb launcher.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Thanks... i wann try
I use tw4 about 2 days now. It was in the Juwe's 4.2 rom i flashed...It is very nice, extremely smooth and seems to work nicely.
However it still has some bugs, you may experience fc's and even sudden reboots (did so once at me after it f.c.). Also as someone posted at another forum it seems to prefer RFS file system to ext4 (unknown why since SGS2 runs on ext4). I cant say so myself since i am on RFS too but any feedback on that would be welcomed.
PS: just a tip, if you want to install TW4 i recommend installing a rom with it, it seems to work better when roms are build around TW4 and not the other way around

Maybe not. I've installed on top of stock jvk not jvb and have had 0 fc's at all. 2 days running and no problems. Only thing that caused me grief was adding icons to dock but sorted that out...
You have installed a rom with it included and seem to have issues?
After reading 30 odd pages in the link I came to the conclusion that custom roms with tw4 included sometimes had issues so I added to my rom which is running rfs.
I reckon if you wanna try it and you're running stock jvk, go for it.
No need to do a complete rom.

Only issues that I know:
Device Encryption does not work and blocks the phone (you have to come back to original stock rom to be usable, the phone cannot boot)
Touchdown app does not sync calendar (but email works so I'm fine with it)
But battery life is awesome compared to stock one, is very fast and I you like TW like I do is great cause you will get TW experience with better battery and faster

Yes, device encryption is unfortunate...
I'd not turn it down if it worked... I decided to wait until ICS, and then see if the inbuilt stuff there works. If not, I'll have to figure it out.
But at the end of the day, I wouldn't release the rom like that, for one reason. Encryption is only good if you are using a secure rom. While VR is in many respects more secure than most ROMs due to using non public platform keys, it still permits root access.
Since exchange encryption is usually enforced by your IT admin, I don't think people should be using this ROM for work purposes to connect in, given it is rooted...
With root, you can just dump the data off the running system
