Hi, I find (maybe) almost every stock gingerbread based ROM's Mms.apk (the default messaging app) has scrolling lag. I really like it but slightly disturbed by its lag. Tried to install CM7's Mms.apk but I got FCs. Maybe someone know how to remove the lags from the original Mms.apk??
here I attached the file:
download
lag
dont know
i usually use go sms its better

Hey,
I'm am currently running the newest Leedroid rom.
I have installed Launcherpro and widgetlocker. It all runs fine and smooth but when i reboot my dhd widget locker gets removed from the appdrawer and i get the standard HTC Sense lockscreen.
Anybody knows why this happens and maybe someone with a solution for this problem?? Could it be that i didn't root it succesfully? I have installed a custom rom and have no problems with it.
I also have problems with htcsense.com
I can't open my messages / can't see my contacts / can't lock the phone / can't trace it / can't mark apps and download them on my phone.. But, i can ring it at full volume.
Weird stuff going on.
After my really bad first impressions with my new GT 7.7 (read here), I made some settings, that makes this thing usable - if not a pleasure to use!! The Tab has no issues with speed within the apps, but the UI (launcher) is a real pain (I hope it gets fixed with ICS). So I thought, what makes it slow and what can I do about it? Other launchers (like ADW) are not optimized for, well, "beauty" (imho) and personally I like the look and feel of the stock launcher.
Here is how I "fixed" it:
The widgets: I removed nearly all of them and only left the icons and the weather widget from BeautifulWidgets (you can get it free (!) from getjar.com).
Live wallpaper: obviously this does not have any benefit and slows down scrolling the homescreen - normally. I tend to just use a picture wallpaper, but I found a really cool clock/date LWP that even "speeds up" the scrolling! Sounds funny, but it really has no effect on the scrolling speed of the homescreen and everything feels smooth. See the screenshots - it's nice to look at. It's called Super Clock Wallpaper by Mariux (I've attached the wallpaper too, if you like it)
Scrolling in general: like I said, TW is slow and stutters a lot. Easiest way to fix it is not to scroll! Android is cool and allows a lot of icons on the screen or to make folders. You don't have to scroll umpteen pages to get to your app. I created folders within the app drawer (see screenshot) to organize it and don't have to scroll. It's more efficient and convenient too - imo.
These settings don't fix the lagginess of TW itself, but now it's not annoying anymore and I finally start to love using my Tab!
Here is what I did to nearly "destroy" my new Tab...
I rooted my device and edited the build.prop to be able to install and try more apps. Obviously I'm very bad in this because I messed it up and my Tab couldn't boot anymore...
I used "Root Explorer" to edit the file which luckily made a backup of it. I thought I could just use adb to rename the files but I always got "permission denied" when trying su in adb shell to get root permissions and be able to rename the files on system partition. Afaik, the kernel has to support it, but the stock kernel doesn't and there are no custom kernels out there for now.
Solution: after fiddling for hours and trying all possible solutions I found on internet, I just flashed the ClockworkMod Recovery, went to "mounts and storage" menu and selected "unmount /system". After trying "adb shell" again on my computer, I finally got root permissions in shell and was able to use "mv OldFilename NewFilename" to rename the files. Pfuh...
Of course you can flash a new ROM to revive it, but everything gets lost then.
not sure about this getjar,why do you have to download to the device?
I like your live wallpaper though, using that
getjar is an alternate market, like amazon appstore. each week you get a full version of a game or app for free – legally!
You have to sideload the apps with this market.
Add the following to your build.prop and Android will try to keep the homescreens in RAM which results in much quicker response when returning to the homescreen.
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0

Great hint - thanks! Will try it!
I'm running Go Launcher EX instead of TW Launcher. I also briefly tried ADW but Go seems faster. Widgets slow things down whichever launcher you use...
I've also used Titanium to freeze some usual hogs like Social Hub. It's only day two so still experimenting.
Just use ADW Launcher EX and the tab will fly.
Also freeze everything you don't use.
I've modified the LCD desity to 170 via "build.prop" file, the only downside is that the Dialer is distorted and you've to use it in landscape mode to be usable, and the mini dialer FCs.
use ADW EX and dump the stupid TW launcher.
I know ADW is faster as I bought it. But I don't like the design of it and feel is not the same as on stock launcher. Go Launcher is no beauty also and more designed for phones, not tablets...
For me, design is important to have fun using the product. That's what it's about: fun. Who really needs a tablet anyway? Of course it makes no sense if it doesn't work. But with the settings I made it's useable without annoying me until ICS hopefully fixes this thing.
So how do you sideload apps? I'm trying to install the beautiful widgets?
I've managed to install but it has a black border around the widgets, it doesn't blend into the wallpaper like yours! How did you manage that?
EDIT: Searched for .apk file and transferred it to the tablet via USB, installed from the tablet but had the non-market installation box cheked.
Played around with the options until I found the background transparency options, happy.
Hi
I am using Tytungs ICS rom at the moment and I really like it.
Everything runs great but i dont like the CM9 style messaging. Can someone tell me how to get the Galaxy S/S2 type threaded view colorful messaging on my phone.
And yes I have tried chomp but that doesn't work quite right for me
GO SMS Pro has loads of customisation and themes on the market. I couldn't find any Touchwiz themes but there are tonnes of others, and it's very functional. You can also make your own themes, e.g. a black background with yellow/blue bubbles (I think this is the Touchwiz colour scheme, right?) and it also has much more functionality than the stock app. Apparently Handcent SMS is also good, but I haven't tried that one yet.
Is it posible to port TW4 form I9000 value pack or from I9100 to I9001 (S+) because the TW from the value pack of the I9001 has some issues.
TW4 in i9001 value pack is seriously bugged and I from what I've read easiest way to use it is to install custom ROM based on KQ1, KQB or KQE. You may also try this modified launcher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
KQ1 is most stable and less bugged from other 2.3.6 ROMS but it's not value pack - it has old "glass" lockscreen and old TW. KQB and KQE are however very bugged for my taste, so I use KQ1 with GO Launcher EX or TW4.5
Actually, which are the bugs that TW for I9001 has? I've never noticed them. Anyway, I'm running XXKQI and GO Launcher EX, but a port from I9000 would be great

The small things make the difrance from Official to that 4.5 ported version, in my opinin it`s just to moded. I like my stuff moded but looking just like stock.
Our touchwizz 4 does not rescale widgets! s2 does. And if we delete some aps the apps in the appdrawer will be all scrabled.
Workaround: To alfabetise you`re appdrawer select TW from all apps menu (setting) and delete data!
Biggest TW4 bug that drove me crazy in XXKQE was that apps and icos sorted spontaneously every time i rebooted phone, and even sometimes when phone was running. Additionaly icons in dock bar used to return to defaults (I change stock messaging app to other one) very often. And lockscreen wallpaper couldn't be set to "none". That's all I've noticed

You can workaround both issues:
1) For TW4 find the apk under settings select it and delete data. all icons form app will be sorted alfabetical and desktop apps will be set to the default ones. Then set desktop as you wish and reboot to recovery and fix permisions. The apps will be saved at this.
2)For no lock screen wallpaper select no wallpaper from display setting then boot to recovery and fix permisions.
Remeber:
You must repeat (1) for TW4 for every new app you install and every new app shortcut to desktop you make.
You must repeat (2) for every time you set a lockscreen wallpaper and then you want to select no wallpaper again.
Best of luck
Hello! I have just flashed WIUI GB stable and as i'm new to MIUI i have a few questions about how stuff is done :cyclops:
First, I can't get the calendar widgets to work. The calendar app works, reads my google calendar, but if I try to place a calendar widget it doesn't find any event to show. Anyone else with this problem?
Second For some reason the launcher force closes since something I did (I was installing apps and it just started Force Closing) so I just installed MiHome to keep with the Miui feel.
I really like the way MiHome folder looks, but I think it is also slower than Launcher Pro for example, is there a way to get this same folder feeling on other launchers?
Third customization of stuff like battery bar (which is cool, but I would prefer something that changes colour depending of percentage for example) I've found extended controls but i am afraid that is for normal miui? not for wiui?
Edit: Also way to change LED notification colour by app ?
And finally, any tips for new miui users? cool theme webpages? thanks

I to installed this ROM yesterday and it's been working great until I installed Gmail from the market. I wanted 2 seperate icons for email, 1 for work and the other for my gmail. It started "Force Closing" immediately after install. I tried the LauncherPro and don't like the way it looked, I love the regular MIUI look! Only difference between JostVice and I is I'm running the v4 JB 2.9.27 Froyo. I'm a noob when it come's to all this if it helps saying! Am I missing somethig I should be doing or should not have done?

Don't use the v4 for now , give it a couple of months to stabilize . Fc s are common . Go the wiui page and get the latest Gb stable version , you won't be able to tell the difference
Yes the new GB rom has the Control Panel that includes options about the top bar!
But still I get the launcher force-close and i think it may be related to installing new apps and their icon appearing. very weird.
I also would like some option to tweak led notification color by app like in CM7
