I can't reply in develompment sub-forum so I post it here:
I have installed this rom with a previous full wipe, and I have a problem: Lockscreen doesn't show up. I have try changing some normal and cm settings related to lockscreen, but nothing worked, when I wake up the phone it goes directly to the home screen. I tried wiping and reflashing several times but didn't have any luck. Any idea what could be wrong?
Thanks.
What about previous builds? And what about Ele's v2.4?
Have you tried another rom with 2.3 (chronos etc)?
can i piggy back on your thread as I have not reach 10 post yet.
I am now on elelinux v2.4 as well and i found that free RAM is <30MB most of the time, just occassionally hitting not more than 37MB. this make overall usage a bit laggy.
when previously on elelinux v2.3, free RAM is ~40MB most of the time and overall feels faster than v2.4.
APPs installed are exactly the same for both version though.
update: I was using hero kernel12a and had this low free RAM issue. minutes ago, i flashed it to Las Ventura kernel and seems that i got >40MB free RAM and overall usage feels faster.
google apps
Hi tried to install this rom but google apps no longer working, installed gapps but phone goes into boot loop, so back to old softwear.
Any help would be most welcome.
Cheers
I had that issue too... and i have to install CM nightly instead looking for a change but...
Maybe a long shot, but did you wipe the Dalvik before installation?
Yeah deleted both but still having the same problem.

Hi,
I have a problem with a standard browser. Every time I switch from a browser somewhere else (eg SMS app), so every time loaded opened page is loaded again. Which is a problem if secure (internet banking) site. Is this problem solvable?
Its the lack of memory. Sense 3.0 uses most of the memory, leaving very little for program usage. So every time you go from browser to another app, the browser gets dumped from memory, and needs to restart the next time you go back to the browser. There may be some ways to get back some memory, but I'm not sure you'll get back enough. One thing you might try is to use a more lightweight launcher besides the stock Sense one, such as Launcher Pro, Go Launcher, or ADW. But you will lose your Sense widgets. Otherwise, if its really an issue, you may need to use a ROM that is not Sense 3.0 based.
Hi,
Thanks for reply. I use LauncherPRO since my first android phone. And in sense proces manager displayed about 22M ram. Unity is great ROM, but i think is better without sense garbage. And yes, i known RMK's politics about his ROM relases.
And here two things what is keep Sense ROM in my phone - camera and lovely Sense 3 lockscreen. Maybe i will try Vision, but i loss Sense 3 camera :/.
Anyway it's look like there no solution for low mem .

Try flashing this script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111145 (wipe cache and dalvik prior).
I use it for this exact reason, it keeps the browser in memory so when you switch to another app and back its right there and doesn't have to reload the page again. Let me know if it helps, i found for most roms there is a noticeable speed improvement as well.
I think about this script. I will try it on future.
Now i flashed Virtuous 2.0 and flashed Sense 3.0 lockscreen and camera. Everything seems work for me now.. And about 160M RAM free...
Anyway, ill do it some test with this "hybrid".

Where did you find a camera apk that works with virtuous 2.0
Do Androids dream of electric sheep?
You is my inspiration to try flash some Sense 3.0 things into Sense 2.0 ROM.
I followed yours signature URL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15751184&postcount=165 and use Camera apk from followed link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062962.
Video recording works only with 14mbps max ( read it in another post, for higher rate is needed another kernel maybe? )

Morning,
after few hours running, few app used later it is same situation here. About 86M RAM free and tab in browser reloading.
Now i try Juwe11's script with Uninon. And after ill try it with Vision Sense 2.0 because it's faster and everything what i liked on Sense 3, have it.
EDIT: On Vision Sense 2 with some Sense 3 stuff, have about 80M RAM free and so far no tab reloading.

Is that no tab-reloading with or without the script?
With script. But only on Vision 2. On Unity have reloading tab almost imediantely after reset / power on. But RMK have some his improvements, so i commented his values.

I've got a Samsung Epic that's completely stock running Gingerbread EI22. The problem I'm running into is that after the phone's been booted up for say 12 hours with normal use, there will be media playback issues. YouTube will be real choppy and the stock voicemail app will give me an error message when I try to play a voicemail file.
When this is happening, my available RAM will show something around 30mb available vs. 182mb on startup, so I'm thinking something's eating up all my memory. The running processes don't add up to the amount of RAM that's being used, so I could just not understand what that number means.
I've tried a hard reset and reloading the OS via ODIN, and the same problems persist.
If anyone would be willing to provide some insight on how to diagnose this issue, that would be helpful. Thank you.
I don't think it very normal but I know that after not rebooting your phone system apps collect cache the consume the ram and starve other apps for it. I do know that I've heard bad sd cards cause the issue as well for whatever reason that may be but that could be a soulution another would be to root and flash a custom rom and kernel.

Running apps is not telling you the whole story. Get something like Memory Booster Lite, look at the task killer and see what is really using up your memory. You may choose to uninstall or freeze some of the memory vampires.
i am having a memory leak also, but i got it after i flashed marcusant revival v1 and samurai assassin kernel. I have read through that whole thread and i appear to be the only one with that problem with this combo. I did not have it on acs ics 5.5, which is basically the same rom. I can't post on that thread yet.(not enough posts) I have checked apps running thru task manager and running services and nothing seems out of the ordinary. or nothing that didn't run on the other rom. is there another way to track down a ram leak?
Doesn't revival rom have the 10 lockmod in it? If not its definetly not the kernel try updating to 3.3 if you haven't already.
Sent from my OG Epic
It does, but i put it on acs ics. Maybe my phone just doesnt care much for this rom. I did flash 3.3 because i saw that so many people liked it over 2.0.6.
Thanks again for your suggestions

Hello all,
Today i installed the CM-9 ROM by ErwinP on my 1 year old Wildfire.
Its good with some issues:
1. Camera doesn't work.
2. gallery has a bug. The albums were visible when we tap and hold on the screen and drag to left or right. when we lift the finger the screen goes blank.
3. menu loading is slow every time.
4. screen lock is present but you have to select slide in the lock screen settings.
For any further issues, i'll update here, as I am new to this forum.
Some facts:
The ROM after install takes 151.8 MB of internal memory.
I have custom MTD partition of 160MB and 15MB cache. I'm getting 290 of internal memory but the system initially is taking 40 MB(I don't know why.)
So, usable is 250MB internal memory.

first two issues you pointed are already given issues. read op to check common issues present as well as replacement app particularly for gallery and some other stuff.
other than that i think i dont have any issues like the other things you mentioned.
try 210/25 custom mtd partitions...it worked for me
@pauch_19: thanks for the information. I will look into alternatives to the bugs. Also you can try my custom MTD settings if you want more internal memory. Can you help me in getting the Market app to work(or any alternative app).

Did you flash Google apps first? Or just install 3.4.4 apk?
You need to flash gapps I think, don't bother with 3.4.4 you should get an auto update to the new play one eventually.

Yeah, you'll need the entire gapps since the market also relies on some extra stuff.

that's probably the reason why you have more space on your internal memory because you forgot to flash gapps. incase you havent, flash gapps as what scratch and nejc suggested.. its also posted in op. its the latest gapps, about 52 mb in size so you will have to set your mtd partitions to default which is 250. im using the modified version which is just about 19 mb.
goodluck!
First of all thanks to all(Scratch0805,pauch_19 and nejc121) for your support in providing the information.
After getting the solution suggested by "Scratch0805". I again installed the ROM and along with the gapps at the same time. This time, I have taken the partition as 200 and 20. And after the boot, in terminal i found that system is using 186.4 MB. Still 13.6MB left.
Note: i installed the gapps with the size 51.88MB unmodified zip.
Now, everything works as it should have with camera as the exception.
One thing I want to know, what should be the CPU settings to follow for more than a day of battery life. Previously, i was using ON-DEMAND with 264-672MHz
and getting less than 22hrs of backup in CM7.

mine is 352/729 smartassv2. on minimal - regular use, mine last a day and a half..i really think it depends on phone usage.
@pauch_19 : So, it means you are not using any apps to control the cpu settings.
I also used the smartassv2 governor and i found that backup decreases as it was in on-demand.
But, the smoothness in using gets better in smartassv2. So, can you tell me which governor will be better in terms of battery life and speed or any post where its mentioned.
atm i dont have too many apps which is also i think one reason why my phone is alot smoother, responsive and gives me a very decent battery life. In performance - processor, my cpu frequency minimum is 352 and 729 max. i used this values even when i was on cm7 nightlies coz its much stable..havent tried it at 768 though cpu governor is smartass v2.

I'm using the miui rom which is basically a modified version of cm9, I use setcpu just to set an underclock profile for when the screen goes off. My settings are on demand176/576 and powersave 176/352 as I've noticed that unless i'm straining the cpu by playing angry birds or watching a video with on demand my cpu tends to stay low doing normal things like making a phone call or checking xda but with smartassv2 it seems to jump high even when it doesn't really need to.

@pauch_19 : As for your settings goes, it good for performance. And you are also getting good life out of it. Nice to know that. I also read a post earlier where members are saying CM7 is better than SplashMOD. If its true, kindly tell me If you know which CM7 nightlies version do i use and how to remove the apps(I once used CM7 # 256,I didn't like the camera UI but it was smooth though) I then, switched to SplashMOD 1.6.
@Scratch0805 : I like the CPU settings you were using. I will definitely try those when I'll install the SPlashMOD v2.0 downloaded yesterday. But, I haven't tried on 176 because i thought then I'll get delay in getting calls and also lag in the background process. If these are not the issues you are getting, then I will must use these, and I can say that I will get at least 35+hrs of backup. And how MIUI is as compared to CM9?
thanks again for the responses I'm getting.
Somewhere in themes and apps section is a thread for miui camera, its a flashable zip which will give you a much nicer camera ui than the cm7 one.
Miui is beautiful as a standalone Rom but gets even better if your prepared to put some effort in, it has the same bugs as cm9, but spend a few hours setting up workarounds and it runs like a dream, I only have 2 problems now 1 is the camera (nevermind tho, I have a digital cam anyway) 2 is if you like theming your phone miui is awesome for it, the only problem is it was designed for hdpi and gingerbread so all the top themes need modding to fit ldpi and ics.

@Scratch0805 : I don't have any knowledge of modding. But I will definitely try MIUI ROM and can you tell me which CM7 version you are using, just asking if I may try that one anytime soon along with the miui camera.

Personally I haven't tried Splashmod so I really couldnt say CM7 is better. I only tried CM7 and Im really impressed at how Cyanogen turned it into a very nice and fast rom. Before trying erwin's CM9 I was on nightly 256 build 14 and everything is working well.
I will try that one also with the miui camera Scratch0805 suggested. If all goes well, at the end of the day I'll be using CM7.
The camera should be fine on any rom I think, splashmod is basically either cm7 or oxygen (can't remember which one its based on atm as the "dev" changes his mind more often than I change my wallpaper ) with some apps removed or substituted for another. Underneath though it will always be cm7 or oxygen.
I'm on miui v4 atm and loving it but I'd recommend till you get into the swing either cm7 nightly 256 or keep an eye on the cm7 thread and look for the unofficial builds which have been built by erwinp and cobje, they may have a few bugs though I doubt anything serious otherwise they wouldn't release it + we are still clinging on to some fairly talented people that will most likely suss out the bugs and let everyone know how to fix them in the thread.

Well CM9 is really great, i love it, but sometimes my phone randomly reboot. Especially when i start phone.apk. Anybody with the same problem? I'm running on 352-710 MHz.
Also my GPS doesn't work.
I will like to remove the Wndows professional version from my HTC HD2 Leo Smartpone. But after reading several Androind versions I feel a little bit confusig which one could be the best for me. Certainly the Rafdroing Android version looks the best, but there are some risks around it and I do not see too may comments about users.
The Android Ice Cream or Jelly looks also interesting and looks easy and theres are other Androing version too easy to install.
Why I am looking to change my OS from my HTC HD2 Leo ? Because I think that the Androind version it is the most wit tons of free applicaitons,thems etc and as stable. The second point it is that I would like to increase at least a little bit the speed of my Smartphone
1.2 Ghz or 1.$Ghz could be the best thing that could happen to me. The last point is that the old windows version was so limited with flash and video, so I decided to remove it.
Certainly that I would like first to get a good backup of my present operating system in case of failure to return to my old version.
soI need a suggestion to a good backup to move everything to my SD or to move everything to my Desktop via USB interface.
It will be plus if I can install a dual boot in my HTC to try the new Windows 7 together with Androind, but I m most decided to run the Android version. Please advice me which Android could provide me a better performance, secure, reliable and increase the speed. the Rafdroid (vhichv version) or the Ice Cread Android or any other version.Please provide the link to proceed to Install> Thank you fellows for your time and consideraionts:fingers-crossed:
First, I don't remember doing any back up from my windows mobile. Simply because I had nothing to backup, except my contacts, I used Google to back them up, (I didn't have much apps/games, and didn't care for messages). So I don't know about backing up, wait for advice from someone else.
Then I would suggest you keep away from sense, that includes all versions of Rafdroid. This is because sense takes a lot of ram, and you won't (or at least I didn't) feel that your device is fast, it's going to be rather slow and sluggish. I would only recommend sense if you like your device to be eye candy, and you don't do much on your device except usual calling, texting and rare gaming/browsing. But again, this is just a suggestion, you can try it out and see if it works or not. (I would have recommended Sense 4, since it's fast AND beautiful, but it's not stable atm).
Now if you're a heavy user, who likes to do lots of stuff and play heavy games and do lots of web browsing, I'd suggest ICS or Jellybean, this is because they both offer full HWA (Hardware Acceleration). (Click here for a comparison I did between ICS and Jellybean that should help you decided which one).
That comparison also includes Gingerbread, so I don't think I need to explain it here.
Yes, you can dualboot Windows Phone and Android. Refer to this great guide by @mengfei which should help you dual boot. Keep in mind that Windows Phone MUST reside in the NAND, so android will be in either sdcard, or sdcard/ext partition. Don't forget to hit his thanks button if you found the guide helpful. You should be able to find all the links there.
Good luck with your journey.
Referring to:
--> Backup.
As far as i can remember times with WM, i always used to plug it in PC and it always synchronised by itself, maybe i had CD/DVD with drivers, i cant remember. But as Marvlesz said, i don't think that You'd need nothing more than moving contacts on SIM card, as You change OS and move to new world ( better one imo ) so; simple and very fast way.
--> ROM.
Again, as Marvlesz said , sense ROMs eats just too much of our priceless ram of EU ver. Users
[*]
So, If you want my opinion, i can tell from my experience, that there are some of my suggestions:
1) tytung's 4.2.2 /720p\ rom that just works!!
I use it nao, and i must tell that i ain't found any bigger bug than random ForceClose of an app but thats normal, 4.2.2 makes HD2 wet and i am thankful that it still works
And oh, it doesnt have any bigger boosts like TabletUI ( Which i love ) or tons of candyeye themes, but its still cool with its simplicity
2) Its ParanoidAndroid's.
It has more tweaks and features, as... TABLET UI o0o0o0o0o
But there are still a few things to fix as author said, but(!) last update was from ending of June, so i bet He will update his ROM soon,with freshly baked sweets for us
Sorry but i cannot tell from experience this time, i did not try this ROM on my device, although i had PACman (combination of ParanoidAndroid and CyanogenMod code) with tablet UI etc etc, and it was nice, kept it for a long time until author stopped updating it
I think that will solve your hesitation
Keep rooting and give me feedback, Have a nice week y'all

Common misconception .. Both EU & Tmous HD2 have the same amount of RAM of 512MB (or 576MB if you may), it's the ROM that's bigger on the Tmous.

Yep, and just adding to that you'll always get somewhere around 411 MB usable RAM on Android (sometimes I've seen it at 403 as well).
