[Q] FroyoMod vs CM7 RC4

Hello all,
I have been experiencing some freeze-ups on FroyoMod 2.6.0 and was thinking of flashing CM7 RC4 by nadlabak.
If I do end up flashing it, is the performance any better? What about battery life?
Also, is "update-cm-7.0.0-RC4-0.08-11.04.05-Milestone-signed.zip" the file I will need to flash? Or is that only an update?
Thanks in advance!
RC4 is very good. You should try it. The best of all CM7 releases according to me. You apply it just like you applied Froyomod. Place the zip file in openrecovery/updates and apply update in AOR.
I cannot comment on battery life as i have had it only for a couple of hours.
So far so good! I'm liking the different customizations, not much different so far compared to FroyoMod, perhaps a bit zippier.
I'm having issues with the power notification widget in the status bar, it's disappeared on me, but it is enabled in settings. Other than that it all looks very good!
Cm7 seems to have many bugs...
So dare not try....
For froyomod, everything works well except
1. When someone call me, my phone would vibrate for around 10 seconds but with the screen still turning off.
It is nothing to do with the cpu and vsel i set,
The phone dialer and contact list are also very laggy
2. 3d games perform pooer in froyomod compared with shadowmod b3

Just reboot the phone....
Display settings gives me FC
Does anyone have FC when selecting Display settings? Seems to me was working OK right after installing but now I always get FC
EDIT:
Problem found and even partially resolved: issueId=478
I use Email.apk to get access to my corporate Exchange email account, which enforces some policy on my phone that should results in removing restricted screen timeout entries from the Display settings screen, it turned out that the translation files contains less entries than the numeric timeout values which caused an exception (index array out of bound) so I got FC.
A workaround is switching to EN_US language (EN_GB is affected too)
Thx to kabaldan

@James91, do you have any version of froyomod 2.6.x with working gps? I am surprised, why have'nt you mentioned here about it in your exceptions?
Experienced some auto reboot. OCed at 800MHz.

Best kernel for miui 1.12.16 &1.12.23?????

Guys miui default kernel is battery sucker.......... can any tell me the best kernel for miui which give the good battery backup ......
Sent from my GT-I9000 using MIUI xda premium
You can use plautypus Neo 18, glitch v13 or fugumod! In forum saying that fugumod is the best for battery duration. Next time flash miui mintberry! It is optimized miui for best usage.
Also, if you notice the process android system is major of 15% in battery info usage, I advice you to disable DND, VPN, monitor, and Telocation provider with app manager. You can freeze them!

CM9 Nova HD Plus v1.1 discussion

Hi All,
Since i am not allowed to post directly to the original thread to the great CM9 ROM from hei1125 -- Nova HD Plus v1.1,, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508492
I have to ask here who had this ROM and discuss our experiences.
So far i got 2 issues:
- the voice call is very light said the call receiver, could anyone confirm? is there a way to increase the volumn?
- Google map zoom with two fingers is pretty bad, not smooth as it used to be on CM7
Thank you.

For calling and internet related issues, I would always check baseband and RIL first. I'm using the 750 baseband (as suggested by the developer) and got the matching RIL with GetRIL from the market. I have no issues with volume. I'm not quite sure whether I can reproduce your Gmap zoom issue, but perhaps this is because we are still lacking some graphic drivers from nvidia. Just my 2ct...

Yes I did had a lot of troubles with baseband and RIL,,, i tried GetRIL for help with my the latest temsak Kang, where i had problem that sometimes the mobile network is disconnected while screen off.
I felt this new ICS ROM is much better related to connection, only the volumn is too low.
I installed RC3-6 and really enjoyed the ICS experience. The ROM is smooth and stable as advertised.
However some key features are not working i.e. camera video
and some minor things like no support for wired headset button which ruins my usual music listening routine.
I tried this with Ironkernel but couldnt get it working due to the low memory error.
Wiped and installed again without the kernel and this time it worked great, nice ROM. Only problem is I need TUN support to get my vpn working and the included CM9 kernel doesnt seem to have this enabled.
Any other kernels i can try with CM9?

as far as i read from the forum, Ironkenel is great for performance however many other problems like faster battery drain,, so i would stick to the standard kernel and wait for the features to be implemented... at the end, the kernel is still in a relatively early stage and i am happy with the stability we could get so far.

yes it is known that the video recorder does not work.
about the headset button,, i didnt tried, don't like the LG headset quality anyway
I can`t post in dev forum, so I post here.
I miss the Galaxy Nexus bootanimation, and circle battery mod doesn't work in rc4/rc5, so here it is,

Thank you for the post.
My last installation was RC3 and there the boot animation worked.
bootanimation dosen`t work since RC4, and circle battery too, I think
@hei1125
In german forum android-hilfe.de
I offer a little Mod for CM9, it changes the color of pressed buttons from orange to ICS/CM9 blue,and the battery icons.
Since I use your rom, the mod works in your rom too So the question is, is there a difference between framework-res.apk and systemui.apk in RC4 and RC5
I have gone back to cm7 as I need certain features for daily driving but the Nova rom has me itching for LG to release their update ASAP and look forward to all the custom roms to follow. XDA developers rock!

lag on scrolling V20N

hi guys , is there any way to fix the lag while scrolling on stock 2.3.4 v20x? i have this kind of lag on contacts menu , settings menu and others... on 2.2.2 froyo there was no lag on scrolling , also in cm7 the same , no lag. But i dont want to flash this ROMs again because cm7 is very buggy has sound problems and camera lag. So is there any way to fix this lag on stock 2.3.4? Thanks in advance

If you wanna stay on stock rom i suggest you flash v20e. If you insist on europe version i suggest you flash v20o. These are latest stock roms. And i think this is the quickest and the best solution to your problem. Rooted ones can be found here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480392 (look at the latest pages)
If you are open to using custom roms and if you are all about performance knock on Huexxx's door and install Zeus v6 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454274
If you are all about looks then look for the achyut's roms Prada, Sapphire. There is also a great ROM, tantrum's Marvel v6. I gave you a sneak peak. Rest is in your hands. Look for them in the forum make up your mind.
And for a future referance a friendly suggestion: Questions should be posted at Q/A section.
I had both german roms, N and now O, and there was no lag in any menu... maybe your problem is elsewhere, a bad app or maybe too many messages (SMS)??
Try to install WatchDog and look for a bad app... too many CPU cycles...
I have more than 800 contacts... (From '97 and it's still growing), including facebook contacts, a vast array of apps and games and there is no problem, no noticeable lag! The new Gingerbread is way faster than Froyo, so it's a little awkward that you have lag problems.
If you have badly cracked apk's that could be a problem too (try to buy them, google has a very good discount policy), or different add oriented apps, because a lot of them are running constantly and it's no wonder that your phone lags! I had the same problem with GLU's Games... all run in the background and are impossible to stop... STUPID if you ask me!!!
i have lag on the contact list too, froyo was noticeably much much smoother.
its so weird, i havent found a solution yet so i'll be waiting for further new LG firmwares.
(tried both v20n and v20o)
its the same on any rom even zeus v6 , marvel , and v20x its just a 15 fps lag on scrolling , and i dont like it , it isnt smooth enough ... maybe there is a fps cap?
I agree with u guys I have lag too, the only Rom I used without lag was cm7
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA
so is there any way to remove this 15 fps cap ? it would be nice if is a way

My phone is SLOW. (I'm on Sammy's JB leak). What can I do to speed things up?

I actually use my phone to do stuff... not only tinker endlessly with it. I have Skype, Whatsapp, FB, Twitter running on the device at all times.
Last time I checked, when I boot my phone I have 768 MB in use! So when I open Chrome, or Logmein, it takes.. .forever. Even opening the dialer takes a couple of seconds. The phone itself is smooth - opening apps is what chokes my phone.
I don't overclock my phone (on JB it's impossible, anyway). But I don't think it's a GHz issue. I think that if I had 2 GB of RAM everything would be fine.
Anyway.
Should I get off JellyBean for the time being and go back to ICS? Or, would CM10 be faster and lighter?
I can't believe that when I got my Note a couple of months ago I thought it was blazing fast, and now it seems turtle-like when comparing it to my wife's Optimus 4X
In Cm10 or 10.1, ram usage is low and apps open fast too.
There are several things you can do to speed it up and lower the RAM usage. Easiest method would be to flash a tweaked ROM like Ultimate or Alliance, which already come with various optimizations. But what I found best regarding RAM usage was to install ROM Toolbox Pro, and tweak the settings under Memory Management. I use the "Advanced" or "Aggressive" profile.
This is, of course, if you want to stick with Samsung ROMs. Otherwise you could try CM/AOKP-based ROMs, some are much more lightweight than Samsung. The best in my opinion are SlimBean and Jellybam.

You should try Cassies Xtra lite 11.1 LSA (there is slight difference between LSC so dev didn't make a ROM that's based on LSC)
Than flash LSC kernel if u want and use V6 superecharger from zepp and your antutu will be somewhere near 10000!!!
Thanks tu CF,Zepp,Thering1975,Adam Outler,Eybee1970 and Philz.
Try this Ram Optimizer Pro...has different profiles to choose from....

Also if you wanna OC to 1.6gHz here ya go..just install the apk then load the module then set your speed..

All the possibilities above are good alternatives to you, friend.
I use CM10.1 cause I'm always looking for good battery and smoothness.
As I'm too lazy to install and tweak those RAM optimizers, I always try custom ROMs.
Btw, Jelly Bam is trully great.
