about an hour ago, my galaxy had only been rooted. between then and now, i've backed up my apps, flashed a faster kernel, and flashed it up to a gingerbread rom.
something strange has happened during this, and now not only did a lot of things no longer when restored (root explorer), but my phone seems to have a problem with background music, strangely enough.
speedx and fruit ninja seem to play fine with all the sound effects, but no background music plays! i mean, that's definitely something i can live with, but it just hints at lots of other hidden things wrong. has anyone else experienced this?
If it was ok before you flashed then its the flash/rom .
Even though Gingerbread is BETA not heard of your problem so far .
best is factory reset .
#Followed by a new flash if still wrong.
You do not mention any details regarding what you flashed

Aha. Finally someone with the same issue. I am missing the background music in fruit ninja too. Reinstalling does not fix the problem either. I would try reflashing, but I am having my first exam on Monday, so I can't spare the time at the moment.
I'm running debusrom g1. I'll maybe try flashing another rom and see what happens. Good to know I'm not alone with this.
Hi guys,
I´ve tried most of the cooked JVH roms for SGS i9000 and also the stock roms.
Is it just me or is the Gingerbread JVH rom slower and less stable than the Froyo roms?
Why should I use Gingerbread when I Froyo is faster, more stable and the battery life is better.
What is your experience?
On my phone gingerbread is faster but very unstable, drains my battery, apps rebooting system, wifi sometimes cant reconnect after reboot just useless i have a feeling that ginger is in beta state and was never finished by samsung
i have also tryied almost every rom modyfied and untouched - all having different or same symptoms of instability funny fact is - most developers saying that everything works fine
I must admit that I've never (yet...) had any of those problems you read about all over the forums ... Speed is similar (or even better) to what I had on Froyo, and battery life has certainly improved with GB.
I'm currently on GingerReal 5.1 and although I've only used it for a couple of days, it hasn't let me down yet. Guess I'm one of the lucky few ...
I am going with GB, cuz of battery life and performance (i think it's slightly better than Froyos)
That is my feeling also. Although i had no really big problems with gb i went back to froyo. The current gb roms have nothing on the latest froyos. I like to have a rock solid phone and right now jsd is it for me. No advantage running the gb roms right now, in fact its a step backwards.

Cool, so Im not the only one having these issues. Well I guess I will go back to Ultimate or darkys running froyo then. Worst part is that SwiftKey is not working in the email client
"less stable" meaning what?
for me GB is infinitely better including battery life
@Raider0001....have you tried factory reset?
i had no problem since i was started using 2.3.3 gb room and its getting my phone looks so nice, rockn' and thanks for GB costum room!

True, almost nothing to add. GBs theme is very nice, had not many problems with JVO - but I like to sleep knowing that battery is not empty when it's alarm time in the morning That is the main reason for me switching back to a customized JSD which runs without problems - except a camera freeze after taking a picture sometimes (not very often so that's ok for me).
+1 - checked almost all gb ROM. Always problems with battery life or FC. Today I flashed back Darky 9.5 with Crysis Revolution theme and now have no problems. I like MIUI but there is terrible battery drain.

Oh man i did everything to get rid of the most annoying bug which is battery drain (spent 2 weeks searching for stability), factory reset 10 times or more. Maybe not all i9000 are same in hardware because there are many without problems and many with.
I installed GB stock (JPJV6) yesterday to give it a try.. (Have already tried all GBs).
The only problem I'm facing with it is the lag in flyover movement in applications menu... It was very smooth on Froyo 2.2.1 (JPJPM, JPJPY).. That is really annoying
Gingerbread, because CM7 is gingerbread =]
If I was still on Samsung roms, I'd probably still be using froyo tho, it's stability is peak.

If someone honestly tells me that they have these issues when following best flashing practice, i.e. ensure they don't install a clean GB rom over debris from earlier roms and I'll start to listen.
Honestly...format internal SD, factory reset, flash with PIT and repartition, factory reset (again)...then NOT restore apps AND DATA from an old rom.
If all the above is done and the installation is truly clean and there are still issues I'll start to believe*
*in the tooth fairy at least
Froyo All Tha Wayyyyyy!!!!!!
JSD 1432 vs JVO 1025 benchmarks both without lag fix, no os bug on jsd 40% os bug on jvo sure ginger theme looks awesome but for what do you want a great looking car that does 15 miles per gallons???????

Well I actually did that on JVO factory and usb erase but the bug came back the third day
Im having a lot of issues with VPN and also with usb audio while docked on GB on Froyo those features were working fine

Speed is faster, at least twice as fast on gingerbread out of the box.
For battery, take out the battery for a few mins and then reboot, then gb battery is at least twice as good too

hey guys, I'd like some feedback on this if you're experiencing the same..
it seems that the TV out quality deteriorated a bit on gingerbread than in froyo.. i flashed stock froyo DXJPA and stock gb XXJVH to compare and there really is a difference.. sorry i don't have a pic to demonstrate, but an apparent deterioration i noticed is that a list divider (the line in the list menu like settings) is not shown when it is in the dead center of the screen.. but when i scroll it just a bit, it shows..
also, still an issue with tv out, the video controls overlay on the video player is seen on the phone but not on the screen.. this happens on gb but on froyo, it is exactly what you see on the screen.. it is also apparent in other video players like mVideoPlayer
lastly, subtitles don't appear on the TV in gb but they do in froyo.. tried in stock video player and mVideoPlayer..
GB Best in ever thing
Got a sim free o2x and immediately upgraded it to gingerbread using LG's tool.
I have noticed that the performance degrades over time especially noticable with scrolling web pages and youtube.
From a clean boot, i fire up youtube and can watch big bug bunny in 1080p full screen and very smooth. When I come back to it a few days lastr, the same video stutters and the audio also skips. I can create this effect a lot quicker by playing something with the built in video player. After having played a video on SD card, i go back to youtube and its a stutter show again.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this using standard gingerbread on the O2x? I'v tried killing various apps and uninstalling others but nothing very scientific and the only way I can get back to normal performance if with a reboot. Any help gratefully appreciated!
Sounds to me like the ram is busy. Just try an app that cleans up the ram.
Stock kernel has bug in memory management. Solution is to flash for example Spica's kernel, latest r11-c is very very good.
Evidently that supposes to root - instal clockwork mod recovery first.

I have a problem with Spica's kernel , I think that it doesnt support netfilter (iptables) thus I cant use Droidwall, any solution?
Thanks
Instal iptables from market?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mgranja.iptables
Edit: the app says that iptables is already installed in kernel, not in the latest version but present. That's perhaps the problem. Only thing is to ask Spica to update to last version.
Ohhhh, i will check it later! thanks!!!
Have tried some RAM clean up apps, unfortunately it makes no difference. The amount of RAM free seemed to make no difference, i had it running smoothly with 82mb free and stuttering with over 100mb ram. If something like this was happening on my linux box I would assume something is hogging the cpu but the apps i have tried seem to indicate nothing is consuming a lot of cpu resources.
I don't want to consider reflashing with another ROM if I can avoid it. Is there anything else I could try?
Kernel problem. Read above.

Reboot your dam phone then.... pcs also get laggy when they have been on for a long time, so reboot and or flash a decent kernel.
Use stock kernel\rom from 20o
I have the same problem. After about 36 hours, the phone becomes laggy. It lags when waking up the screen, it lags in menus, etc so i have to reboot it every 36 hours or so.
Speaking of kernels and roms, i've tried them all by now. From CM7 (which i could not get along with, functionality wise) to Topogigi, spica, Thanatos, carburano, gueste and erestor.
I am now on gueste 2.1 stable SR1 and the problem persists.
After about 16 hours wake-up and the lockscreen lags, after about 24 hours scrolling becomes choppy, after 36 hours dialer, contacts and other apps start slowly and lag big time.
This is the same behaviour in all roms and kernels tried (except CM7 which is a no go for me).
L.E.:
Of course, rebooting solves the problem for the next 20 hours or so, but its quite inconvenient.
Has anyone experienced this? While playing Madden Mobile it lagged quite a bit.
Yep! I have encryption disabled on mine and I have been seeing a lot of stuttering in games. I am not very happy with the performance I am seeing.
could also be that those games are not update to work with 5.0 yet. I haven't got my phone yet but if this is the case with most games, I will be disappointed.
I've been playing Soul Calibur (on sale for $4!!! Go go go!) and I was expecting it to lag. It didn't in fact the overall experience was awesome. That is why I wanted a Nexus phablet!
haven't experienced any game lag with Kingdom Rush Origins.
I'm seeing lag and stutters on Plauge Inc. and Asphalt 8 so far. I haven't tested other games as of yet. It's getting annoying. I might wipe everything and re-flash the stock image to see if it helps at all. What are you guys running right now? I'm rooted and un-encrypted on a 64GB Cloud White.
It could also be the apps themselves like Prod1702 suggested. I'm going to do a comparison with my co-workers N6 before I flash.
Update 1: I'm also seeing the stutters on the boot animation, co-worker is not on his 64GB MB. He is rooted and encrypted and has not changed DPI. I'm going to reflash stock and see if the issue persists.

Stock 32gb
Okay so another update for you OP. I re-flashed with the stock image and did a (manual) full wipe of the userdata using the Nexus Root Toolkit. Also did root and removed encryption again with some manual flashing.
So far no stuttering in Plague Inc like it was before. Going to re-download Asphalt 8 to make sure. If that tests well, I'm going to slowly add things back to see if I can find what caused the problem.
Update 1: Added all google accounts and exchange accounts back, also re-installed my android wear stuff so far. Still no stutter, even after a power off and power on. Perhaps the image from the factory or the OTA update caused some issues with performance. Flashing the image from google via Nexus Root Toolkit seems to have fixed it so far. I'll post if the stuttering returns. Otherwise, it looks good now.

Ill have to try flashing the stock image again too then. I am still using the encryption as I dont have any performance issues in homescreens and such, but most of my games lag pretty bad. it feels like they are running between 20-24 fps all the time. Rebooting doesnt help, closing all apps doesnt help. I was going to try removing encryption but it looks like people have the problem even with that. Ill just have to try reflashing the stock ROM and see if the lag goes away.
I just made a thread about this. Just purchased the new Gta Chinatown Wars for Android and it lags like crazy while driving around. Yet on my N5 it's perfectly smooth.
I'm starting to get real worried here
Hi,
After upgrading to 6.0 Preview 3 I've noticed sometimes the phone becomes seriously laggy, like the whole phone starts going slow mo. But anyway, more noticeably when ever I seem to watch videos the sound will carry on as normal but the image just freezes, if I try to load a video from the Photos app its a nightmare I gave to play/pause click Info come back out of it to catch up its annoying. Anyone else noticed this issue or just me?
Nexus 6 Android 6.0 Preview 3 rooted and flash clean via fastboot.
sounds like a reflaah would be in order. ive been on m since it came out, 1, 2, and now 3. i dont gave a single issue with it, nothing like you described at all. or, it could be user errors. anyways, probably best to reflash m.
