[Q] Choppiness on notification pulldown

any way to make it smoother like it was on 6.1 ? it was bugging me since cm7 was released.

its MUCH smoother with latest kernel.

If you want cm7 i prefer for you for now #18 release. It is working on old kernel but IT WORK... I'm using this release but i flashed kernel 4.1 you should too. The new kernel is amazing fast and smooth but is still bootloop and we must weit.

i dont have a flashable version of it, but it's included in the latest nightlies (but be careful, if you dont follow instructions in the thread you may bootloop - nightly #25 seems to be your best bet)

i dont think choppiness went away with #21 and later. im using smartass governor and still pretty laggy. not close to cm6 or sense pulldowns. i wonder if other devices with cm7 has this issue?

well its waaaay smoother than before for me, i dunno why its choppy for you.

ive watched some videos on youtube with other devices pulldowns on cm7 and only wildfire seems to have this problem. maybe its related to lack of gpu or armv6 cpu i dont know.

can you take a quick video of your pulldown animation if you have a camera i really doubt its smooth as i think.

here's a vid:http://www.mediafire.com/?3e17kzqy21754pk
Sorry its sort of big for like 30 seconds but i recorded with my ipod nano, and considering that its a VGA recording of a QVGA screen and that the point of it is the smoothness, i didn't want to sacrifice quality any more.

yea its slightly better on your device can you tell me your performance settings and cpu speeds?

JIT on, surface dithering on..
cpu is at 691/264 smartass, although i get the same smoothness on 518/264 ondemand as well. BTW, its actually a little smoother than it is in the video.

Moved thread to general as it is not about devving

Can't wait to root and install custom roms but... [SOLVED]

...I'm truly bummed out about the options.
My KF will arrive in 2 days and I'm formulating my gameplan... Initially I was certain that I'd be able to run ICS, but the progress seems to have slowed on the Hardware Acceleration front.
I've read through all of the "Which rom should I flash?" threads... and it looks like any ICS-based rom is out for me. That being said, I know I still have some options given these requirements :
1) Hardware Acceleration - No Netflix is a dealbreaker.
2) Attractive interface
3) Access to as many of the Amazon stock bits as possible.
4) If possible, I want a rom/launcher optimized for a tablet.
I know that I can flash MoDaCo and load the ICS launcher (or any other 3rd-party launcher) and achieve something suitable... but everything I've seen so far just looks like a blown-up smartphone interface.
What about CM7? Are there any launchers that looks like Honeycomb or tablet ICS? I'm an occasional MIUI user with my DX, but I'm only seeing 4.0 MIUI for the Kindle Fire... Are there any MIUI roms with hardware acceleration?
I'm still guessing that MoDaCo + Launcher is my safest bet until CM9 achieves hardware acceleration... but I'd love to hear some suggestions.
Thanks folks!

Cm7, run my kang, hw acceleration n everything works dandy and looks like ics when setup right.

nevermind. problem resolved itself...

if your problem is solved ...
please mark the subject of the topic (edit first post) with [Solved]

What exactly does lack of hardware acceleration limit? Is it just streaming video, or is there more?
Also, how close is the community to developing a kernel that supports HW acceleration? I hope to have my Kindle rooted soon and I'm struggling with the same decision.

Hey, sorry to hit you up again... But I've got a question about the Amazon App Store on your rom. It is filtering apps that would normally be compatible on the stock rom. Any idea why this is? Does the app store not recognize a CM7 kindle?
Update: Tried side-loading the apk from another device... Installs, but it says Not compatible with this device. Request a refund... but the app is definitely compatible with the Kindle because I played it before I left stock. Any ideas?

Now it's here, what do you think? ICS

I am actually quite happy with it, it's fairly fast nice and smooth with no major issues.
Just need status bar toggles, power button menu, custom kernel and I think I will be happy
What's everyone else's thoughts ?

it's OK and stable..only thing is the lag issue..it should be snappier..

Is good to use smooth no lag
But I don't know how to root can anyone teach me??

can give link it work pls...
sorry that i try before 2.3 nearly kill my phone is pass so i dont want make mistake pls help ok

Well, I'm still not sure what the whole big deal is about this update for us.
It isn't more beautiful then a custom ROM. Even Sony told us that this isn't as fast as GB.
And their are still a lot of apps that isn't working correctly on 4.0.
I have it for only one reason. That is because I can't stand if someone with the same device have a newer software then me
Edit: I thought we should have the original unlock. But I have still the Sony one.....

It is no way smooth.. Everything works.. But isn't hardware acceleration supposed to increase the smoothness? I don't blame Sony. I blame Google for not fixing hardware acceleration right!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA

Try enabling gpu acceleration in developer settings?
Has anyone tried using apex launcher? It's probably way better than the stock launcher from what I've seen; like ICS but even better

Running official ics(rooted).its excellent. Very quick lag free compared to beta. I have frozen unneeded system apps and deleted bloatware. Very snappy
Sent from my LT18i using XDA

I love it.
I've been running the ICS beta since it was released and the performance of the final release blows it away on my Arc S. Getting it installed via Flashtool was a right PITA though - I thought my device was properly screwed at one point!
The launcher doesn't redraw like the beta did - I think Sony have made some memory tweaks in this area which is very welcome. I also like that they're shipping the official ICS Gallery app (and have renamed the old one 'Xperia Gallery') - the ICS Gallery app is so much faster than the Xperia one.
The ICS browser is in a different league to the GB one. I also love the Task Switcher, swipe notifications, music player controls, data usage monitor, new ICS calendar widget, GMail widget, etc. etc.
But Sony won't be able to please everyone. Some people were expecting the 2012 NXT UI even though Sony never promised it. These people will be disappointed. Personally I can't see what all the fuss is about - I'm sure someone will get the Xperia S music player working on ICS if that's what people want!

sooo smooth
so fast
i use baseband 70 with cm9
so fast sooo smooth >> perfect battery use
good new baseband

please can someone find a way too root this firmware without unlocking the bootloader??

its complete rubbish to be honest. It hasnt improved at all since beta, the look and feel of it is like 2.3. They could have atleast been bothered to integrate some of xperia s apps.

Why would they integrate S apps into the Arc S ? What would be the point in giving this years flagship phones apps to last year's ? Then it removes some of the attraction of upgrading , Sony is a business out to make money not provide users with all the solutions they want

The Changelog says, the Camera is not working on some devices. But thank God. It's a huge step

It's working very well on my dhd. I think turning of Sound is only required for using 720p Video recording but does not affect camera.

You have to wait for an official fix, it's a kernel related problem due to the different camera chip that some dhd have.
Sent from Jellytime!

It's very impressive for an alpha, I was happy the see the camera working and video in 720p(without audio). However at times the camera app would refuse to launch and I would have to reboot for it to work. Also I noticed my battery drained a lot faster with this ROM, is it sense related or could this be improved?

Except for video perfectly on my inspire Everything works

There is a post somewhere which mentions you can get rid of the lag by removing the oc daemon, i did this and its all speedy fast now.

Really mm Im working on it.to remove it and I let you know thanks alot bro
Sent from my Telus HD using xda premium

Well just to let you know if you r runin blackout ICS the way to avoid lag is choosing ultrasmooth and in daemon controller change cpu freq to smartassV you will notice the diference right away
Sent from my Telus HD using xda premium

Fast DHD
The DHD with Blackout 3 rom is extremly fast compared to before with the official HTC, which was always lagging or crashing... It is a very impressive job from the Blackout team! :good: Thank you!
PS: the demon controller was set up conservative as CPU Freq. I just change it to smartassv2 as buhor suggested. Did not see much difference since it was fast before already.

Cant see why htc didnt do their own ics after all, its so much faster than stock/gingerbread roms.
The only thing i dont like about 4+ is that third party apps like gocontacts/sms cant sync pictures from facebook.

anyone have this problem? when i made/received a call, i have to reboot the phone otherwise when the next call i made/received, the other party will not be able to hear my voice, although i can hear them clearly. According to them, they only heard some distortion noise in the background.
I pmed them but have not yet received a reply so i just post here to ask.

maybe you should wait for the update. Im sure it wont take long

Thats weird I would recommend a full wipe reinstall it..if doesnt work try a dif radio......I ve tested several ICS and this One is the most stable 4 me
