Hi all
I've upgraded to every version of 2.3.4 (leaked of course). But somehow my TW4 launcher homescreen pages stutter, more so when scrolling left to right. I don't know whether any of you have come across something like this coz I couldn't find such a problem in the ROM threads.
Well I could only think of one solution for this. Replace TW4 2.3.4 with 2.3.3. I don't know if it would work but that's my best bet.
In order for me to try this out can someone please upload the file with it's odex counterpart. I'm afraid I don't have it. Looked everywhere but couldn't find it.
Probably my last option would be to flash back to a 2.3.3 rom and get it from there. I hope you all would help me out before that.
Cheers

I had the same problem, the samsung task manger widget was the cause of the problem. Once removed it was super smooth....

Hmm will try. But i use the bloody thing so often.
Edit: Looks like you were right mate. I would like to test more though. Did you happen to come across a solution?

Unfortunately not my friend... I have learnt to press and hold the menu button, gaining access to the task manager that way.

Well thanks for your help mate. Still, if someone could share the old TW4 from 2.3.3 roms, I would like to give it a go. Never had such problems back then.

Download a custom 2.3.3 rom with TW4 and extract it .
Or search the dev threads where the old/removed apps are posted .
Might even be in Themes section .

The problem with custom ROMS is that they are all deodexed. Since I'm using stock kg6, I don't think they're gonna work.
Maybe I'll try searching again when on my computer.

I have a stutter on my menus, but not all the time.when it starts it makes the phone pretty bad to use.
Was thinking of upgrading from kf3 to kg6 to see if that helped. Factory reset didn't.
Maybe this task manager widget is causing my problems to too. But does your stutter happen only on home screen. When mine happens it affects everywhere.
Thanks

I had been wondering what was causing the problems, I could never figure it out cause I didn't think that would've been the problem
Hopefully someone figures it out cause I use it all the time

I tried this customizable tw launcher before, probably an earlier version, but it just gave me constant crashes and freezes. The program monitor widget doesn't work on it. Needs a modified version of it.
Thanks for the help though.

If there was no lag (no smooth) when changing homescreens with only few widgets i'd say it is proper official 2.3.4 release...
However, homescreens are respectively smooth with live wallpaper enabled...
Whats your opinion? Do you confirm that lag?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Are you saying there's a lag on homescreens? If so do you have the stock task manager widget there? If you do get rid of it and if you still have lag, sorry mate. At least for me and a lot of others kh3 is great at least, not perfect
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Thats what ive got in only 2 homescreens... The lag appears when i go to first homescreen from right to left..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
What ROM did you come from? I remember people saying that you need to do a full wipe and reflash and the lag will go away. I'm on stock KH3 with CF-ROOT kernel and I have no homescreen lag.
KE7 stock ----> KG5 stock -----> HK3 speedmod kernel.
Lag appeared after i installed HK3... Also something i noticed is there is no lag after i clean up the memory from the task manager but i see it coming again after i open a couple of applications. Finally theres no lag if i use live wallpaper..

Somewhat off topic here: is the browser from the latest firmwares still incapable of re-flowing text properly with pinch to zoom?

I mean if pinching to zoom has the same effect as double tapping in a webpage, the text in the webpage should adapt to the level of zoom, so as not to be cut off from the screen. Opera Mobile does this very well, I was wondering if the stock browser in newer firmwares does it as well (the older versions didn't).

I would try a full wipe and reflash KH3 to be honest. That doesn't sound right.

I just flashed this ROM and found out I can't install any apps.. it just crashes and reboots and the apps are not installed..
Did you wipe data, cache and Dalvik (dalvik is under Advanced in CWM)? Did you restore system settings with Titanium Backup?
I had enough of this so im back to stock kf3 with speedmod kernel and everything looks smooth and stable..

It doesn't lag for me aa soon as I deleted the Running Applications-widget from the homescreen

Dear Arc/S users
Althought we - Arc or Arc S users - use a smart phone that come out only two year ago we can't use our telephone without custom roms, because it is very laggy, and have got lots of bugs notification led etc. with 4.0.4 update. And some users including me have privacy concerns with permission etc.
I want to call attention to advantages Firefox OS on Arc S:
1. First, I saw this video. http://youtu.be/5MzuGWFIfio. In video Firefox Browser that was very laggy on my Arc S with Custom ROM is working awesome without any lag. And the phone in the video has 256 Mb RAM. Think this os how works fast on Arc S.
2. And all Xperia 2011 series except for Arc have a Firefox OS Development Topic. We have a topic too but is not improved yet, and haven't got enought attention. I open this topic for this stuation.
3. Boot in less than 6 seconds even in MDPI devices. (This Xda Topic) (Edit 1: Firefox OS open as fast as 4.0.4 stock dialer. )
4. The small footprint of a browser based operating system means that B2G should significantly extend battery life before re-charging.(This Xda Topic)
5. B2G will be the first mobile OS to use Do Not Track at the operating system level. (This Xda Topic)
Is there a way to do a backup and transfer messages and contacts from android to firefox and return ?
I don't know but I will try this when @n1koola released stabil version.

Hi everyone,
Does anybody using this as main ROM? how stable talking, sms and browsing? If they are ok I will switch this and test it. I may want to contribute it.
So new themes are coming. I even paid for one! Some are actually really decent. I said before it is like a throw back.to the old Symbian themes to me...but they're lovely.
Here is "Probot"

Yeah, I paid for one as well. It's is the steampunk theme. I haven't taken a screen shot of it, but I like it rather well. I figured that I could spend $0.99 to make my Z1 more "mine".
Yup.and they're a nice way to keep.the Sony launcher and yet customise it. Which I think was great of Sony. I used to make Symbian ones for myself...can't wait till we can do these!
Here are all the ones available atm.

I have the "+" button, but I can't download any theme ): ...
Today I got the OTA update to .290. I have not locked apps at all.
I went to Settings -> Customize -> Theme, and there's the "+" button. Sony Select appears but with nothing, just the shadd black-blue background.
If I go to Sony Select directly from the launcher, it just appears the "loading" animation and after a while it says "Not net connection. Try after a while"
PD.: I'm translating what it says to english, messages appear in my language.
I get the same error after an update to 4.3 and I saw others with the same issue on the Xperia Z forums.
I have attempted a reboot and clearing the app data.
I suspect that it may be something up with Sony's servers.

I tried updating but it fails, looks like it's due to vroot which I found dumps a bunch of crop in system. Unfortunately Sony don't use update.zip for ota so can't find out which patch it fails on, and the ota log contains nothing useful.
Anyway, if it's anything like 4.3 on the Z I'd advise you skip it, it's seriously buggy.
