Anyone else try the new MIUI.us 4.0.3.2.2.3 Ice Cream Sandwiched, and have it crash on them? I was starting the customization and I got a "MIUI Home Crashed" or something to that effect. Reboot didn't help, just was a vicious loop.
I can't post in the thread, but thought I'd share my experience with it. Might have been a one time thing, but could be a bug.
I think I had just DL'd a clock widget when it happened.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place.
The stock Android Facebook widget doesn't seem to be syncing correctly on the widget face. I can got into the app and get all the recent status updates but on the widget it self "up to date" status is like 3 days old.
Any one know of a fix or is it the facebook app its self.
I am running cm7 nightly 14 with newest gapps 307.
Thanks for any answers and wondering how many of you this is effecting as well.
Same here! I'm running a Sense ROM. Sometimes it works right then all of the sudden I'm looking at dude's ugly mug from last Wednesday. I was beginning to think maybe it didn't compile correctly after i modded. Glad to see I'm not alone!
Yea same here... caused me to stop using the widget. I don't have a fix for it myself... but I think it will be taken care of eventually.
I did more research outside of XDA and it look like its a problem within facebook and not Android or Roms.
I don't know if I'm the only one to notice this, but every. single. rom. after HKTW has been an asbolutely lag fest on when using your finger for 'slide to unlock'. When I first isntalled HKTW I was so satisfied and exclaimed "FINALLY, SMOOTH UNLOCK BAR GOODNESS".
Unfortunately this glee was not met with any custom roms based on source code since. I dunno what happened. I never noticed any improvements anywhere else in phone usability besides the lockscreen between these roms and I'm just hoping someone has an answer or knows what I'm talking about.
Alien rom - No dice
Cherry pi - no dice
CM7 - sad to say, no dice. However has the most utility out of all the other roms available which is amazing.
Widget locker doesn't help. Silly tricks from droid X2 (who has the same problems but managed to fix somehow..) don't help. Removing blur (CM7 does this right?) didn't do anything. I'm really confused what else can cause this dual core DUAL CORE PHONE to perform so horrendously on the basic basic of tasks: swipe to unlock.
I apologize if this sounded angry, I just want someone to feel my pain.

I don't feel your pain. My lock screen unlocks at a 1000fps. Almost too smooth, on Cyanogenmod!
I've rarely seen any lockscreen lag either..and when I did it was usually from SetCpu being too low for Screen Off. The only constant in your scenario (multiple ROM's) is your phone..which probably has something on it (app) interacting with it funny would be my guess..
This is EXCELLENT news then!
As far as I know there are no apps running that create this issue. (to my limited knowledge of course!) symptoms are felt on fresh wipe and install of any rom BUT HKTW.
Is there a deeper wipe I can use on the phone to ensure every byte of data is completely ERADICATED before installing cyanogenmod? I'm willing to try anything except taking her back to the store.
Apologies for my enthusiam.

"fastboot erase system -w" I believe will do a much better wipe than just doing it thru CWM. Someone please correct me if i'm wrong though..
Here's a link with more info:

At work so fastboot isn't an option. I'll update when I get home though.
Thanks for help so far!
If cm7 rotary revamp isn't smooth, neither is the iPhones unlock slider. I have absolutely no lag on my end.

thanks for that....was unaware that this is a better way
Yea switch to cm7. No lag anywhere.
Sent from my cm7 Atrix
Update:
Fastboot wipe didn't help me at all. I installed Alien 4 today and no joy.
Went back to HKTW and everything is working the way I expect it to.
I have to be doing something wrong, no way this super duper beta software is more stable for me than all the other roms. I've been using Navalynt's HKTW rollup fix mod.
Is it kernel related possibly? I'm so curious I want to start developing just to see if there's a major difference..
I am using Pi-Cust and I too had lag with the stock lockscreen but with widget locker, I see no lag what so ever. I tried beta 1 of CM7 and I didn't see any lag in the lockscreen there either. It is definitely a blur thing. If you use Widget locker, make sure you disable the stock lockscreen though.
HKTW Gives no lag with stock lockscreen. All other roms show no difference between widget locker and stock lockscreen besides the utilitiy the app gives (widgets on lockscreen, custom slider etc). I'm sure blur can be an issue but I'm not experiencing any, I just installed HKTW and everything works perfectly. =\ I skipped blur setup as usual and have no problems..
Update:
Installed Faux123's kernel and it broke everything. I get the feeling I'm the only person interested in this (maybe not many people have tried HKTW?)
Incase anyone is.. Here is the rom I'm using.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142674
however it bootloops if you install it over CM7. I installed Alien 4 and then HKTW on top to stabilize. If you full wipe like usual and install HKTW it bootloops. =\
If it helps, when HKTW was first released I used the fastboot method of install. Not sure if that clues anyone into my issue or not.
Okay, so I have the Acer A500 with Flexstriker's Rom and everytime I go to..
About Tablet >> Status it force closes saying the application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
It is seriously pissing me off, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Collin
Did you ask Civato about it on his thread?
I will only guess, some other app might be messing around, like a battery app or Task app. Utility apps, are known problem makers.
no i didnt - i was just curious if anyone else was having the same problem...

You should post it there on his thread. Civato is very good about taking care of his roms. Most Rom modders are. Myself included. And if there's an issue, I promise, we do our best to find a solution.
I myself found 2 users, who had an issue with my rom last night. 1 was user error, the other may or may not have an issue. But, neither was posted on my thread, and I don't know why.
Anyhow, Civato knows his rom, and he'll be better able to help.

my Iconia (always more often) flashes in the launcher, flickers and most of the times everything disappear apart the wallpaper...
i have used apex, nova, trebuchet, holo... all (before or later) start flickering and then die... only way out is to kill the launcher or start another one somehow.
my rom is reflexxx stryker rev 4.2 (but i also used cm9 and had some problem)
i have ics bootloader, but i can't say what version, sorry
i have seen some posts about this problem,
most common idea is that the problem is in the ics bootloader.
the only idea of a solution was to go back to honeycomb BL
but those posts i saw where almost 2 months old... so i wanted to ask:
are there any new solution about this? any new hints? any new ideas?
it is also difficult to search about this on the forum.. since i don't know exactly what to search
thanks anyone for any hint.

As far as I know there is no fix. I've tried many different roms and bootloaders as well as MANY launchers. The only way that I have been able to tone it down is to not use Google widgets. But even then when I play something that uses 3d graphics it may still trigger. I've taken logcats and it says something about some sort of video error, researched it a little and found nothing. I hope that someone has a solution.

i tried to use less widgets... but doesn't really change much...
it is very random, but in my experience it appears more often when battery is low
do you feel the same?
i hope it can be fixed, i'm seriously thinking to sell it because of that (but who will buy it..?)

Don't sell it, just flash stock. I tried them all and had problems. Stock for me run's with no problems and the fastest just give it a try and you won't look back.

I went stock for a while and it was noticeably less often, I still had the issue. Especially when playing Great Little War Game. So I just went back to an overclocked rom. I enjoy the performance more than I regret the flashing screen...
as i wrote to JdgM3NT4L in a pm:
my "solution" is to put a home switcher app shortcut in the lockscreen.
so that when it happens i can kill apex or switch to nova
i mirrored my settings in apex and nova (nova can import all apex settings automatically)
that's the way i survive this boring bug
if someone like the "solution" can try it
and maybe hit thanks button

Did you go full stock no unlocked bootloader..? Not just run a stock rom.

I actually did the rollback to 3.1, updated officially over the air all the way up. Complete stock. It was better, but the issue persisted.
Loth, I have not noticed if the charge had much effect, But one thing that I think that seems to trigger it is when there is a game/app going that is using 3d graphics, and then any sort of notification pops up as an overlay. There is one rom that I could get it to do this almost on command. I could have a game going and the check the notifications. 80% of the time that was enough to get the flashing started.
So perhaps what you've noticed could be triggered by the low battery popup?
I can say that the latest Flexreaper ShellSHOCK does this very rarely. Maybe three times in the last few weeks, and I play with the tablet a lot.

i installed latest shellshock, let's see
It happens to me all the time with all the launchers I 've tried. I am in unlocked ics bootloader and stock rom. The same happened with the locked bootloader. I tried the CM10 Rom same results. I removed all widgets from the homescreen with no luck.
If it's in the ICS Bootloader then all must have the same problem or not?
Any solution except going back to 3.2?
To fix it I had to go full stock to Honey Comb then reinstall CWM then install Thor cm v15 and no problems since. I think the problem is the ICS bootloader
After some good times with few troubles, now it is again a huge problem: i almost can't use the tablet it happens every day and more than once.
I think I'll go back to stock honeycomb

Hey guys,
I have searched and found nothing on this. I love this rom (using nightly 2013.11.17) only real issue I have that bothers me is that when I install any other launcher such as apex, nova, go, next launcher etcetera, I completely lose my nav/status bar transparency.
I of course realize that it would be better to post this in the thread pertaining to this rom, however being that I am newly registered (though I've been reading these forums for quite some time) I am unable to post there. Any help will be very appreciated.
Anybody?
Never mind guys, I figured it out by myself. Turns out you just have to set the other launcher as default. hopefully this'll help anyone else who encounters the same issue.
