Database Develop

[Q] What am I doing wrong here? Suggestions please

So here is my situation...
First, what I want:
I txt a lot, don't really call much. I want an extremely fast ROM. Light weight (I don't run many apps at all, Pandora, and uh...well thats about it), and not heavy on the theme. I'm happy with Helix launcher.
I also want the HTC dialer, I hate all the other dialers. I want the HTC dialer because I press numbers to spell names to call people. Only other dialer I found that does that is DialerPro or some garbage.
My problem:
My HERO is very very very very slow. With Pandora running sometimes it just locks up completely while still playing music.
If I am getting a txt or have justt sent one, there is a 5-10 second lag in the phone doing anything or responding at all.
Sometimes I can't unlock it, I try to draw the pattern and it doesn't pick up my touch Until half way through the pattern. This is the same with Swype, sometimes it doesn't pick up my swype until half way through, or sometimes it just ends it early.
Its really driving me insane. I don't honestly see how anybody would ever keep this phone if it was acting like this for everyone else. Sometimes I have to make calls in a hurry (God forbid I ever need to dial 911) and the phone just sits there and locks up, or lags horribly and skips numbers, or just force closes almost everything.
I have tried many roms. Currently I am on the CM6 2.2 (inb4 experimental) but I'm willing to try others. I have had the SAME problems on other roms.
I have also tried changing phones and have the same exact freezing and lagging issues.
So please, suggest a rom that is very light weight, allows me to use the HTC Dialer, and doesn't freeze all the damn time.

Not really one out there... for speed and lightweight I recommend aospMOD, but you'd have to give up the dialer. There's always dialer one, which is similar though

Do you use autokiller? Usually when people have similar problems to yours they don't run autokiller and when they do their problems go away. Give it a try. I would say aggressive setting in your case.

CM6 will fix all your lag, but you'd have to sacrifice your dialer. Are you sure you can't find a third party dialer that works for you?
Sense is very resource-heavy on any phone, so AOSP is type best bet.

Agreed, and dialer one can pick up some of that sense-like feel

If you really want the speed and responsiveness, you are likely going to have to leave Sense behind. Like others have said, an ASOP-based ROM (such as ASOPmod or CM6.1) would be the best bet. If you tried CM6 in the past, give CM6.1 a shot. At least for me, the move from 2.2 to 2.2.1 was a DRAMATIC improvement in the fluidity of the phone's responsiveness and 'feel'. Smooth as silk and buttery on top.
If possible, pair this up with a modestly overclocked kernel. I personally use Decad3nce's latest (11/12/10) CFS 768mhz kernel clocked @ 729 via the Deca battery mod. Once you set up the ROM, kernel, and battery mod - you should be golden.
Also of note, I do use LauncherPro, and run with JIT enabled and all the CM performance tweaks in place except for CompCache, which I leave disabled.
Good luck in your endeavors to remove the lag from your Hero - don't worry, it's definitely possible!

[Q] turn old hero to apod?

i have cdma hero laying around after upgrade... i was wondering how hard it would be to make a rom stripped of all cell phone functions... basically turning the hero into an android ipod...

Now that would be freakin sweet!! I've been wondering the same thing.

I am thinking about doing this too. All you would need to do is freeze the phone with tb, turn off data, and delete bloat.

Hell yeah. I'm gonna buy one of those extended batteries and make this my video and mp3 device.
Is there a way to just strip those features from a nightly build so it can be flash ready?

lol.. ironically this is the exact same thing i was thinking of doing with my hero.. i have an arm band that it fits nicely into, that i know the 3d wont, so when running or mowing i would have to use the hero for my music.. great minds people, great minds..

Not the phone features. Those have to be frozen. The other system apps you dont want are fine to remove from the zip.

Hmmmmmm........troublesome indeed.

i would just install aosp9.9.2 without gapps

As far as I know you would have to do some editing of code so that it is not trying to load any phone features. If you just remove those it will give you FC errors everytime. I'm going to look into it since I am not completely sure what I am going to do with mine. If I get something working I'll post it up for everyone.

I strip the phone features from all of my Nook roms pre-flashing and haven't had any negative effects so far. I know this isn't a Nook, but still worth a shot.

You think modifying the current ROMs for the Hero can be done in a similar fashion? How did you do it? Resources? I wanna try too.

Do you know how freezing an app works? It makes it disappear from the OS. You could hide the status bar with a launcher. Kill data with cm. You would still have wifi, gps, etc. If uncorrupted builds a rom without these things that would be cool though. I just dont know how you would get past the android setup without the phone stuff.
Edit: for those intending to do this. I would highly recommend using cm based roms. it has the long press volume when screen off fit media next/prev. And you can always display lock screen music controls. Also, I have been remapping my phone button for pause/play for months, seems fitting for a non phone apod. Button remapper works like a charm.

Sorry for the lack of specifics.... il Duce is probably correct in saying stripping the roms of phone features is not the best way for most people to go and keep in mind that the nook is not a phone and doesn't have an IMEI #. I also do not use Gapps with the roms that I strip, I run them as complete stand alones using recources like k9 mail, calengoo, Amazon App Store, and importing my contacts from the sd. There is also almost no performance gain in doing this....My motivation is that the Nook's recovery kernel is decidedly sub-par, so if I can stip 30 MB of fat from a 95 MB rom before I flash it I can save a ton of time flashing, making nands, restoring nands, and booting. That being said if anyone plans on trying this, I'm curious to know how it works out. After all, at some point I'm going to upgrade this thing.

Just Curious.... Cant the phone just be used as is with the Firerats Tweek to gain more memory, then use RootExplorer to Delete All the Widgets, Gmail, Mms, Calendar, and whatever other Bloatware?
Just Wondering, cause to me the phone basically Already is a Apod (Ipod) or Whatever it should be called? Lol...

I got most of it done. Just need to add some things back in and edit some things. Works fine, but I can't go that long with out a working phone, so I'll get it done in the next couple of days.
Almost everything is removed. Kept some basic things..
Camera, Calculator, Browser, Market, SU, and a couple for media.
Removed all extra home screens and the taskbar is hidden. It's still uses ADW, but the launcher dock is removed.

Why use Firerats? I think total I just got it down to 50 Mb or so. It might be less. I have nothing else to do while counting down the day's till the 24th. Don't really want to tweak my phone anymore or flash a new ROM.

Well I guess if you got it down that Low you Wouldn't have to use the Firerats, but I was Suggesting Firerats because if someone Didn't want to Strip their Rom Down Firerats might just give them enough room to use the phone basically As Is!

[Q] How do I change screen rotation delay

Is there any way/app to change the screen rotation delay?
Sometimes more delay would be nice, and on rare occations a shorter delay... ie, when my asswipe iphone fanboy friend of mine comments on how "slow" the phone are
I try to tell him its an delay that are set, and not lagg but deaf ears...
Anyone know ho to do this?

Anyone have any input?

I am 99 % sure you can't make the device delay the rotation
It only depends on the CPU speed and memory usage (RAM usage).
Only suggestion would be to make the phone lag which is always an horrible idea

+1. Don't really think that there will ever be such a feature as most users will not really use it haha. Faster is always better to me

Well.. how to make it respond quicker then?
Im not talking about lag or rotation speed.. im talking about the delay from the time i flipp the phone to the screen starts to rotate
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App

First you want delay now you want it quicker???
Why do you need the delay and why do you need it to be quicker???
there probably will be a way to do it but to be honest no developer is going to sit down for hours trying to figure this out as there really is no need for it.

If You had read my first post You would see i asked for BOTH... what does it matter... sometimes like when I need a wider keyboard, i would like it to change quick... when in galery it would be nice... sometime it would be nice to have it as it is today or even a few ms slower.. say when your reading documents, playing games (when You move the phone alot and dont want it to change emediately..)
there are alot of reasons for this feature, just because You'r happy with the delay.. Hey!... some are even ok with the stock ROM... but i dont argue with them...
Anyone else that have any info?.. or atleast give me som pointers in the right direction.. maby i'll be able to figure it out myself... just does'nt know where to start....

Its possible....roman did it in the galaxy tab 10.1 pics aokp build with his from tools app..Not sure how

it is kind of possible (changing the screen rotation animation speed - making it look like instant rotate or slow screen rotate). Using Temaseks Kang with ICS transitions - you can go to "Spare Parts" app (downloadable via market in case you don't have it in your rom), scroll down to Transition animation and experiment. I'd guess it's not the solution you wanted, but close enough.

A smart App on the Market available for free : SmartRotator
You can choose which applications enables/disables the screen rotation
I use it since few days, it does it job.
(Don't remember if it needs root access or not, but I don't think so)

What do people want from a custom 2.2 ROM?

Hi. After trying Honeystreak 2.0, I fell in love with the 120 screen density. However, I know since some people may not want to upgrade to Honeystreak for some reason or another, or just like Froyo more than Honeycomb, I am working on modding the stock 2.2 ROM to use a lower screen density, giving it more of a tablet feel.
So, I've already lowered the screen density to 120 (I can use 130 or 140 if people prefer) and I am trying a few different launchers (I saw a stock Froyo launcher in an Evo 4G thread, it if looks good, I might use that, to get more of a stock Android experience) because Dell Stage does not look good if you change the density. I might to a couple build.prop edits, to make it feel smoother, and I plan on removing or adding apps (it's already root, so Superuser and Root Explorer will be included.)
If anyone has any requests for apps to add or remove, any advice that might help, or anything else useful, please feel free to tell me.
Also, since this uses the 2.2 kernel, this should be flashable through CWM, which is the main reason I am making it. Basically, it'll be stock Froyo, on the stock kernel, designed to feel more like a tablet.
Since this is more of a discussion than a ROM release, being that it's not out yet, if this would be better in general, mods can feel free to move it
EDIT: So, here are the changes from stock Froyo: Dell Stage has been replaced with Launcher Pro (set to display a 6x6 icon grid), it's pre-rooted and comes with Super User and Root Explorer, the build.prop has been edited for a 130 screen density, less frequent scanning for a wifi network (to save battery), and smoother scrolling and scaling. I want to find a user agent that enables all market apps, and remove some bloatware.

I don't think the free verison of LauncherPro is themable, but I can probably install a Gingerbread themed launcher as an alternative.

More a kernel than a ROM thing, but I want tun.ko, and I know some others want CIFS.. I'm really missing using OpenVPN on my DS7, as it's the only way I can sync my Google account at work on wifi without tethering to my phone.

lol. It's Froyo because, unlike DJ_Steve, I am not awesome enough to port anything else. Modding the OS it comes with is alot easier than making a new one
Anyways, I am basically using Build.prop and adding/removing APK's to make it feel more like a tablet. Then, I'm going to create a zip using CWM or something.

I would like it to be fast and swift with no bloat wear and also support for swapper 2

Send dj steve some dr dre beats headset funds and im sure he will let you use his gingerbread and then you can mod it with cwm and change density and maybe add overclocking lol

Try Zeam Launcher. It's pretty simple, but free and you can customise the rows/columns and such to make it more tablet-like.
I'd like to see overclock, black notification bar, and improved battery life. If there's anything that can be done to make Cell Standby not such a hog (way more battery goes to this over my Galaxy Tab), that would be awesome.

Well, as far as improved battery life, for the WiFi version, the cell apk's will be disabled by default, and I did a build.prop edit that scans for open wifi networks less frequesntly, so if WiFi is on but not connected, you drain less battery scanning. I've tried changing the Browser user-agent in build.prop, but when I went to whatismyuseragent or whatever that site is, even though it said I was using Mozilla 5, it still knew it was Android, so I'm looking for a way to better spoof a PC, so mobile sites aren't viewed by default. As far as editing cell standby or overclocking, I might get DJ_Steves Streakdroid 1.3 build, and then apply my changes to that, so you get the overclocking kernel, but that would mean taking away Bluetooth. Also, I'm still trying to figure out how to rip the ROM with clockwork - if I just make a backup, it checks the MD5, so it won't work for someone else.

Lol. 2 problems. First, if he had a Gingerbread ROM, I think he would've released it. Second, if I had a pair of Beats, I'm keeping those 300 dollar headphones for myself

things to add
A couple of major things to have would be :
1) a modified wpa supplicant file to allow tethering to adhoc (pm me if u need it)
2) any basic file explorer
3) a working overclock
4) vtl launcher - xda flavor
Just a few for thought

Ugh. Don't insult our only dev by mentioning insanely overpriced, terrible headphones.

There are several features that I am used to on CM7 that I miss daily on my tablet. Primarily, the notification power widget and the ability to swipe to clear notifications. Also, being able to select the rotation angles available would be handy.
Would be nice but might be a bit much: Automatic backlight level adjustments and lockscreen tweaks.

Oh god yes, I am going crazy without it! How do you get rid of a single notification if you dont want to open the app? For example, when downloading updates from the market. I love the ability to swipe swipe swipe, open, swipe. I have never once accidentally dismissed something I didnt want to, so I dont see how it could be even remotely annoying.
For me it seems like the most intuitive solution.

Options: the beauty of Android. I second the swipe to clear a single notification idea.

I wish I could do that. I'm basically just using APK's and build.prop tweaks to get it how I want it. I don't know enough about programming for Android to do anything interesting :-/
Basically, as of now (and untill I figure out how to rip the ROM for public upload) it's a lower screen density, some build.prop tweaks for smoother scrolling and better battery life, running on rooted Froyo. It's pretty basic :-/

[Q] What features would you like to see in a rom for your thrill?

Just to get used to the android OS dev side I am going to attempt to blend Meego/Maemo features with android. I will be using the V10k firmware as a basis.
I'm curious as to features you may wish to see in a rom. My main goals are:
Tri-screen functionality: Custom home, Apps, Running apps (Similair to Meego)
Customizable folders for the app screen
Onestop Keyboard (Swype, switch between qwerty and T9/numeric style)
3d functionality remaining
Possible Debian install
Removal of ALL spare apps. If it isn't required, it's gone.
EDIT:
Possible extra features
Option to uninstall apps from app screen via long press.
Option to hide/lock apps
EDIT (Final):
PROGRESS: Android is a surpisingly easy OS to work on and there is a LOT of devel to look at in terms of starting points for coding. I currenty have a debian distro runningwith the android OS. Apt-get works fine, however there is not enough space install any application. This Rom may either be out very soon, or depending on memory issues my be impossible without relying on an SD.

Unlocked tether and wifi hot spot

I'm most concerned with battery longevity. Don't know if you'd call that a feature, but to me it's one of the most important parts.

Wish List for new ROM on LG Thrill
I love this Thrill, for the most part, but I wish that the Phone app, where you see the
Dial, Call Log, Contact and Groups, would work same way as the Stock Android does... basicaly, take out the Groups and put Favorits.
This Group to me is very slow every time I click on it takes 5 to 10 seconds to load.. and then I have to presse the Favorits... which I use the most... so..
Yes, I have about 1700 contacts on my list, but even with just a just contacts, this buttons GROÜPs is very slow.
Also, I wish that the Flash on teh 3D camera mode would work, because right now, only in 2D mode is that the Flash works... I think it is just a setting in some internal files or on the Camera apps that blocks the Flash when in Video or still pic.
Thanks and let us know if these changes are possible or not.
Ron

WIFI Unlock and tether: I belieive its been done on other roms so it should be no problem
Battery: I will see what I can do. The ROM will just be a bare bones OS so there should be very little to eat up the battery.
Contacts to favorites and camera flsh: I'll have to look into this and let you know.

There is a reason behind the flash not working during 3D. They blocked it because the light from the flash messes with the 3D camera. Sure this could be a feature still, just saying this doesn't work for a good reason.

I was actually thinking on waiting for the Gingerbread update before starting. The update should be coming anywhere between novemeber and the end of december.
If I wait, then it will give me a bit more time to get familiar with android as an OS andcome up with various way to get the maemo/meego/android mix feel just right. Progress has been fairly fast however. I'm still having memory issues with the debian however. Also, the UI get very buggy. I might just look into utilizing some outside programs.
How would you guys feel if I outed the stock home and keyboard and replaced it with someothing like GO launcher and keyboard?

As long as the keyboard has the speak to text capability, because although mines rooted with thriller, i don't like using swype just to have that option.. it should be on the default keyboards too.

As long as the keyboard has the speak to text capability, because although mines rooted with thriller, i don't like using swype just to have that option.. it should be on the default keyboards too.

Stock android keyboard has speech to text. Its just disabled by default. I don't use the LG keyboard so I don't know about that one.

Something else that would be nice is the ability to reboot into recovery. Not a big deal but a nice feature.

Maybe Undervolting, anything to help battery life... patiently waiting for the Gingerbread update to arrive for the Thrill

The reboot option is actually a great idea Ill look into that, I probably will not have an undervolt OR even an overclock option as Im sure it will require a custom kernel. Kernel are something I rarely play with and when I do it's only a temp thing.

The reboot option is used in thriller, oops wrong reboot. I think there was a reason the reboot to recovery didn't work, I remember reading about it in thriller thread.
