[Q] Screen rotation too slow for gingerdx - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
I'm using GingerDX with Stock Kernel.
Is there a way to improve autorotation time? i feel that is pretty slow. For example when i type a SMS and rotate the phone 90 degrees, my phone goes to landscape after like 10seconds even when i shake it

What? I dont have that problem. Mine takes 2-3 seconds to do that.
What version are you using?
Did you full wipe?
Hit the THANKS button if I helped!!

It happens in gingerdx version below 17
Always use latest gingerdx

got ginderdx v21 stock kernel. does a full wipe modify all my settings or delete my installed applications? fullwipe=factory reset?

Yes. Backup your apps before full wiping. The settings will be gone also,but I don't think it's too hard to revert it.

Hmm, not necessary has to be Gingerbread... some versions of the launcher works in 2.1 and 2.2 (with fc's adding folders)
Copy the apk to system->app and set permission :

Hai,
This happen to me in a while.. You should try fullwipe and reflash the rom again,
DO NOT FULLWIPE AFTER FLASHING -- it might happen just bcause of the wipping.. I found few bugs after wipping GDX regarding apk instalation but maybe its just me
Anyway GingerXperia and Gingercruzt has build in active launcher on them...
Best of luck

[Q]Gingercrutz revision 8.1 - Can't boot into recovery

Hello Im a super noob over here...
Just currently flash gingercrutz rev 8.1 into my W8 from froyobread,
Dont like it, BIA not running as smooth as on froyobread.. So decided to revert back, unfortunately, I cant boot into xrec/cwmrec recovery.. Basically it stuck at the SE logo not goin anywhere..
As usual when halfly bricked like that, remove the batt and recover the phone, try to reboot into recovery again, and failed!
Nah, please help me..
Need my recovery to work again thanks!
Try again ,if it's not working then reflash stock rom with Seus/Flashtool.

hello bro,
I really donno whats actually happen,
theres an error in cwm recovery after the flash, some sort like ''bad recovery'' but I though it was ok, so i reboot out, propably and def my fault..
I guess It might be my mistake afterall, I thought I have fullwipe, which I might not, since I cant wait to boot into the awesome crutz lol! and def its awesome! Very stylish and I really love the new camera
Unfortunately games doesnt run perfectly(heavy lag on BIA 2) so I switch to gingerxperia(which is thought to be an upgrade of crutz!)
yeap some how gxp gaming performance is really at top notch even better than froyobread!(I confirm this lol)
##might wanna rename the rom crutzXplay instead lol
Btw I have to say sorry, It might not be the ROM glitch afterall, def my own mistake,
Thanks for the care
@rav3n_pl
@dotsen9
Got it done bro, thanks
Np,when you cwm tells you bad recovery,just don't select yes to restore cwm,and then select yes(it's asking if you really wanna do this).

na darktremor here, nor slaid tweak... yet i do have your problem too
only thing that gets it alive is pressing power button for 10 sec to initiate restart
freezes are seemingly random, but only when screen is locked
sometimes a few a day, sometimes i get trough the day without any problem...
solution would be great, because everyday use is quite frustrating right now
also in hibernate mode i can't receive calls or messages
I only have this problem on cyanmobile but my brother's g mini with same rom and scripts is running smooth

In my opininion it's a Rom's problem: i've been using squadzone's Rom for weeks and always had that reboot problem, even without any script installed... I solved changing rom

[Q] X8 Slows down gradually

Hi All,
As I can see that no matter which ROM I install in my X8 the phone will be great in the initial days but it gradually slows down as days go by.
So can you all list out different methods to keep the phone fast and snappier without factory resetting it?
Thanks,
Well first thing that comes to mind is a reboot. But i guess you've done that. Clear cache?

How often do you install new apps? More apps = more lag

Well I guess that would make it a little faster but is there a way that i can do without rebooting the phone and going to recovery and all?
Does the app "RAM Manager" help? or the "Engine flush" in supercharger script by zeppelinrox?
Try Ram Manager Pro
Clear cache

Ram manager didn't work for me. I use supercharger. I'm not saying it's better, just my preference. Well, fef (flush) works. I haven't experienced a major decrease in performance since using it. Hopefully it works for you too.
But still, i've found rebooting your phone every once in a while helps.

It isn't a good idea to mix scripts.. Use one only for performance tweaks..
So either use Ram Manager Pro or supercharger..
My preference is Ram Manager Pro because you don't need hubble telescope to read the settings and apply the tweaks..
Reset factory settings
Cachemate and similar apps work for me, I clean cache every 3 days and phone is never sloved
Sent from my E15i using xda app-developers app
How about a custom kernel. That may speed your phone up and give you the option to overclock and undervolt. Both will make it faster. But the x8s hardware is outdated anyway. Won't be long 'til it's on the legacy devices list :laugh:
Hey theres one simple solution..use good task manager.......and use swapper........

Use swap IF you're on custom kernel. DO NOT use a task manager.
Either way, your phone will gradually get slower unless you do a reboot at least.

Just reboot. Rebooting stops all cache. You could clean database and wipe dalvik cache too
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
This what I did...
I use FroyoBread v23b (Great rom, hanks to doixanh), I did that:
# Just install the necesary apps. Don't install all the aps, I just have Twitter, WhatsApp, Facebook, SMmagager and root explorer.
# Install modules and scripts. I recommend you Supercharger, do a overclock (Not to high, just the enough, like 691mzh)
# Like the other guys say, Clear the cache.
# Use a simple launcher. Like LauncherPro, you can do nice things with that launcher.
# Disable the screen animations. You'll gain performance but loose visual attractions. If you don't want it, dont do it.
# DONT USE TASK MANAGER. The simple answer it's, leave Android manage the RAM.
# Use a light and simple theme. Like system theme of Gingerbread or Motoblur.
Here in the forum you can a lots of launchers, modules and more, just use the search tool.
This is I remember what I did, my mobile fell so light and quickly, no lag in the scrolling.
Sorry for my bad english :silly:
I think u didnt factory reset a once.
Thats why rom lagging. Do it for ur sake

Reset to Factory Setting / try to re-format your SD Card. Don't forget to make backup
There is a dudy way to got the phone to new condition.
Backup ur current rom with x-recovery
Fully wipe data
Restore that rom from x-recovery.

Well , I "freeze" apps which I rarely use , and wipe cache+dalvik cache regularly..
