Want A more Zippy Xperia Z? - Xperia Z General

This improved my phone ALOT, im new here and have been a longtime user of peoples roms so i thought i'd share this little tip for you!
Theres a simple fix to some slowdowns which lies in the animations and frangmentation of the internal SD card.
> Go to developer options
> Set window animation scale to - OFF
> Set transition amination scale to - OFF
> Set animator duration scale to - OFF
Download LagFix (fstrim) Free (from Play Store)
>Tick system/ data/ cache
> Run
Reboot, not really neede dbut you can if you want.
ZIPPY !!! :good:

I'll give it a try now. Thanks in advance!

just a heads up, lagfix app only works on rooted devices so I can't use it.

Thnx for sharing dough

will try thanks

A good advise, will tell my brother try.

Turning animations off doesn't make your phone faster. Maybe it feels faster for you, but in fact it isn't.
Also lagfix only does TRIM on your internal memory, which is most of the time a bad idea and can cause more wear on the memory cells.

Very lean and full of stuff to tweak and customize.
Liquid 3.0 & LuNa Theme by R3Ds
Awesome ROM. This is amazing work! Little problem getting the Sense 3.0 Ring or the old style Sense lockscreens to work - the other do. Wipe and re-flashing to see what happens.
Just flashed this and it's been stuck at the HTC screen for about 10 minutes... patiently waiting...

Check your MD5, sounds like a bad download. I just installed this myself to make sure that it worked.
On another note, it took literally 10 seconds to install

What recovery are you using?
Had this ROM installed since about 10PM last night. The ONLY time this ROM choked was when I pushed my phone to overclock between 1.8-2.035GHz (Which ran GREAT for about an hour before heavy multi tasking and a wrong governor caused my phone to freeze) The battery life is great, the Liquid addons are awesome. Best AOSP ROM out. Period.

I agree!
***Would like to have an option to change Text option from Contacts long-press on Contact photo to allow for Google Voice or to allow to set GV as the default app for texting, particularly from Icons.***
Also, still having issues with Lockscreen types - Sense nor Sense 3.0 (Ring) will activate; Ring activating AOSP style Lockscreen; Sense activating Rotary syle Lockscreen.
***Edit***
Found the Sense 3.0 style lockscreen as Halo.
***Edit***
I'm an idiot...if you have Google Voice installed and want to text someone from their Contacts pic via longpress just select the SMS icon (first time, as you can set GV to be default) and you'll then be offerred to set a default app (stock app or GV).

Flash the newest from ROM Manager (5.0.2.1). The one you're using is significantly outdated and, if I may venture a guess, is likely the reason why you're having a troubled installation.
Does the camera have these features?
1. Touch focus?
2. Focus while recording video?
3. Zoom while recording?
4. 720p?
Thanks.

Release Preview vs Consumer Preview?

Hello forum.
I was just wondering what is the main difference between the new Release preview and consumer preview? Is it like a better version of windows 8?
Thanks
to be blunt the whole thing is a lot more polished
The apps work a lot better, the graphics are better
So far stability is better. I don't have a multi monitor setup on this PC just now but apparently that's been improved
Metro looks a lot more usable, the tiles are a much more sensible size.
is it worth the upgrade over the CP?
without a doubt, Music, email (exchange works again), messaging, people, hubs all working sweet. I still don't like the people hub compared to Windows phone, but its a big improvement over CP
I think they did alot of work on drivers too, im not having anymore of the many driver issues i had at first, just finger scanner. The stability is great, and its faster.

What issues? I use Chrome with Windows Release Preview and it works fine.
Just saying Release is having some issues with chrome doesn't tell us what the problem is, we need more information to help you with it.
EDIT: Sorry, I just saw your thread and I have replied to it. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what your problem is as Chrome and Flash both work fine on my netbook running the same OS.

[Q] Lag When Opening Gallery From The Camera

I get massive delay when I got to open the gallery to look at photos when I am inside the camera app. Anyone have any ideas as to why and how to solve it?
Surely I am not the only one with this issue? In fact I know I am not.

Same problem here with up to 5 sec complete freezes when opening gallery. No idea what to begin with.
The vast majority of samsung devices have this issue. You could try the lenovo super csmera, comes with its own gallery and I have to say I prefer the camera
---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------
As for a fix, a highly optimized rom would be an answer.
Same here.
Only a second or two for me
Tolerable. Using NOVA, doubt that makes a difference.
For me it was because Gallery was syncing with Dropbox. I enabled the sync OUTSIDE of the Gallery and now when I choose gallery, it loads much much quicker for me
Does your gallery settings have sync/display of synced content? I feel like that is the culprit

I have a solution for gallery lagging issue
THE BEST SOLUTION I FOUND IS DOWNLOAD
"QUICKPIC" this app is fast!!!
I have this lag issue... It's quite concerning that this incredibly expensive device has so much lag... I have found no solution to date and I have tried multiple roms. I'm also experiencing lag in camera and Multi tasking menu. As well as not good battery life... What a shame.
---------- Post added at 11:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------
BTW on my phone I have a 5-6 second delay to open the picture and then another 3 to share it or just see the other menu options...
I have a solution, now that Xposed works on Samsung LP roms, I use the "Samsung camera any gallery fix". Then I select "Quickpick" from playstore (free) to open the gallery from the camera.

Maybe because most of the sound libs are designed for armv7 and v8 only.

Hey due to the preset file being incomplete it defaults every time think you could do a full arkamys port with working presets with all the tuning and bypass files to go with because optimspeaker doesn't want to work unless I flash arkaddon but yeah take a log when you switch a preset it goes back to default preset 1 shed light please

What is the purpose of drc files? I've been playing a lot with 5.1 drc setups including those for mic capturing - but no audible changes at all)

drc has been removed from the latest release, since i found range compression and expansion doesn't seems to be much good for sound overall.
This mod is so underrated, the sound on my my phone is amazing, crisp, clear and just enough bass,
Loving it too much,only running this mod without any other.

ArkamysAudioService.xml should be present at /data/. . . / .
ArkamysAudio take time to load the xml file to /data. If it's not there even after some time, check apk is installed successfully. Please check this and report back.

You gave answer in your question!
SD636 is not good with 3 GB RAM. System itself eats about 2 GB. Around 500 MB is reserved. So you have 500 MB RAM to use.
While switching to other apps, system needs RAM. So it cleans the most RAM using app, which in your case is PUBG.
If you have root access, then do this:
1. Install & open Kernel Adiutor. Give it root permission.
2. Go to Low Memory Killer section.
Disable Adaptive Low Memory Killer. Set profile to Lowest. Enable Apply On Boot.
3. Go to Virtual Memory section.
Set zRAM to 1200 MB. Enable Apply On Boot.
4. Go to Entropy section.
Set it to 25%. Enable Apply On Boot.
5. Now reboot. Done.
