Comments appreciated and help required

Try to Hardreset your phone...
I never had an issue like this...

Root it.
SuperCharge it.
Enjoy.

Try overclocking, or preferably try a new ROM already overclocked - that way you will get fresh rom + optimizations + OC = you will be pleased.
You don't even have to use supercharging as many roms already do great without it.

And many are slow as a snail to the point where the phone is unusable...
Not everybody loves clogged memory like you do lol
The guy wants it fast... not slow LMAO
Edit: Actually, you're kinda sorta almost right in some cases... as more and more devs are supercharging their roms

LMAO LOL ROFLLMALMAO
please, point out those which are slow, let us know

Search the forum for "redraw"
You may actually get 1 or 2 hits...
I edited my prior post indicating that you're right in a few cases...

I'm still waiting for those roms which you meant as "slow as a snail"
PS: it is not called supercharging, that's just your script. people used other values even before your "fancy" script.

Ya, but nobody dared to actually fix OOM memory groupings... bub
I even say in my OP... playing with minfrees is NOT memory management...
What I did IS memory management...
I control what goes where and when it gets killed.. that's the only way to do it
An app like AMM or AKMO will let you set minfrees for 6 slots.
That's it.
Big deal.
But stock froyo and stock gingerbread group apps differently nevermind all the different configurations of custom roms.
Hell, CM7 has NOTHING in the third slot.
With AMM you can set slot 3 to 100mb on CM7 and it won't do squat.
Edit: Of course, when I say "slow as a snail" it is my opinion based on a rom unsupercharged as compared to when it is supercharged.
So out of the box, HONO and MIUI are supercharged to begin with at the moment so except for those, all the others would feel slow to me.
To you, EVERYTHING is fast, because you like sloooooooooooooooooooow with lots of apps that you aren't using clogging up memory.
Which is NOT what the OP was asking for

They are all overclocked
Froyo or gingerbread is basically the main decision on what to try

Am scared to try the overclocking coz as many said it may brick your phone but my phone is still under warranty, is there any links from where I can actually start with rooting and custom rom and. Overclocking?

Well, technically, rooting it voids the warranty anyway

[POLL] Is CM7 SK3 ready for daily ROM?

Just wondering about your opinions.
If not, can you point out why?

i don't even install it but my answer is no.
people reporting some tiny but annoying bugs. i can understand and accept battery darining but not working p and backspace letter at the keyboard is another thing.
i'm waiting one or two more revisions.

no
from what i read have to many bugs

I voted for no only for the lag and some conflicts with 3gwatchdog but besides that it workes well for a daily use considering the fact that is a early release and it's a long buggy road 'till nightlyes.

Still unstable as what I see in the moment. And yeah, one or two more revisions, then we have to see. But I'm using it as my daily. Not always taking video, I have HTC_IME KB, not fond of using data access and so on..

My answer would be no, it's not. A good ROM for me is a stable one, a smooth looking one and performance... CM7 for Optimus Black has none of this so far.
And also I like using the web browser on my phone, this is nearly impossible with this ROM, but your Nova ROM was just perfect for my needs.

i´ve got a few problems with video calling in gtalk.
and some apps arnt working as they should (eg torch).
also my rear speaker is fu**ed up, but atm i dont know whether it depends on cm7.
things like battery drain and dead touch spots probably result from the fact that CM is just a ported software, so no optimizations are done especially for OB unlike on Nova.
so, for now, "no" to daily ROM

It is like driving a car, it has to be stable otherwise you will be stay on the road for whole day fixing stuff. I say so because I don't have a spare phone - but love to try the new thing and report bugs to you guys.

I am using it!
I think that can be used as daily (anyhow keep your back up close just in case)
I do not understand how some of the respondant can you say that something have a bad taste when you addmit that you never taste it?!

Me

and a positive reaction ) i like it a lot..it reminds me of my x10..and for me thats the joy...of having a costum rom...seeing how a rom with bugs develops into a bugless rom.i can use the phone even if i press 10 time to write "p" or if i cant make a video in hd..btw if you set on high the video works perfectly...ohh and i managed to get rid of battery drain by luck i guess...i charged to 100% then wiped battery stats...
Sent from my Optimus Black using Tapatalk

I say No. Is very stable and usable, but have some bad bugs, that do not allow daily use for many people. I use this ROM normally, but for identifying problems, bugs and help make this ROM better. Now i don't have any battery drain (5% per 8 hours - awesome), don't have lags.

can live with it, but I us it only for 1 day. I'm in the configuration phase for the moment.

+1, I'm waiting for the stable one..

Very usable, indeed... and I'm already using it as my daily since my main purpose for the OB is only for SMS, phone calls, taking pictures and web browsing (through WiFi)... That's it. Everything else is like novelty to me.
Though as the saying goes-- 'It's better to have it and not need it, than to not have it and need it.' -- There are features that has to be there, that needs to be stable, so as the need arises we'll have something up our sleeves. That's the reason why I still voted NO.

ICS vs GB and CUSTOM ROMS

All custom roms naturally have issues at this stage, some less some more. But gb rom takes the cake ( still ) on stock camera (sgs ) which have tons of modes but alas the zoom is old fashioned and not like in the ICS which has a slider. Then further, the contact photos are maybe small ( not like MIUI unfortunately ) but nevertheless, clear which u cannot say about ICS. And in terms of customization MIUI is the best there is. You customize dialler, boot animation, boot animation sound ( wow ! ) flip to silence like in HTC , long press on apps to close, etc,etc,etc. The list goes on . Too bad they do not have TV OUT which I need cause of my kids. But what I mean to say is so far besides the speed , ICS still does not have features one expects from such a heavily advertised firmware from Google. Cause if at this stage After the release of the Official ICS in Nexus, Gingerbread and MIUI is still better ( at some points , major or minor ) then maybe we are awaiting Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind as far as ICS is concerned. And Apple IOS will still keep ahead in app stability and features. The developers are doing their very best but in the end source codes are with Google and Samsung. Hope for the best and my best to the developers !

I'm confused, is this supposed to be a question or an answer?

I'm wondering the same lmao ,though for whoever searches this topic to look for a question on which roms are the best (like i did) .
My opinion -> CM7 & DarkKnight 4 ICS .

Well if I recall correctly the call pictures were displayed smaller in eclair/froyo/gb than in ICS, quality should be about the same since this is a google problem (afaik).

I understand the need to customize some things to gain a good overall layout. But in ICS it all seems pretty good as is, it has a certain charm. Still you could change bootanimation, bootsound ect if u want, it's just not that user friendly (like in miui). And I don't know how many features you are missing in ICS, there are roms with alot of great stuff built in (infinitum ROM does a pretty good job). Hold to close? Also built-in.

Thanks for the reply. ( was'nt really a question but always good to discuss )
You are correct. ICS IS more interesting and the customization in MIUI is not all that needed but if I get MIUI like Contact pics and Stock like Camera with a great zoom ( stock camera is full of options , which we frankly hardly use but...what else can you expect out of a high end phone ? ) I am happy cause isn't ICS supposed to be better then GINGERBREAD ? Cause remember, these phones are not cheap ! So we expect perfection or close to it...And come to think of it , none of my friends complain about anything in thier iPhones ! No heavy customizations but a nice phone. If ICS does not meet my expectations by end of this year I will switch to iPhone.
Thx.

Obviously you haven't ever seen ios. People complaining,because it s so simple and intuitive even on a programming level...not counting that ios remains unchanged through time despite new versions coming out,graphically talking,adding two or three features.if you have a look at android you will notice a big difference between the respective 2, 3, and. 4 firmwares in terms of use and design.ios does not improve but keeps adding features that other phones have already since ever,treating and advertising them as new...I wouldn't buy an iPhone right as I think of it now.

Sent via XDA Android

You are correct when u say I have never used ios. Seen only my friends phone. Never used one myself. In fact, please don't get me wrong - I like the feel of ICS and even my friends do ,who have the iPhones.
But now I sort of feel let down by Android cause they had advertised earlier that a brand new operating system called ICS would be soon released in Nexus with new camera( features like editing, scene modes like never before and quick responsive shutters and so on ) and a great thing like Beam but the introduced version in the Nexus is not all that great ! Speed and other technicals are great no doubt but like for instance TV out in Nexus is not there ! Camera is still better in Galaxy 2. The Contact photos is smudgy and quite ugly. And That is Google's mistake right ? So are customers expected to compromise instead because Google is not giving HD quality pictures in contacts list ? And how do I edit and delete my contacts in a group ? ( multiple contacts delete instead of one by one ) But you see, Gingerbread is providing this feature though ! ( to delete Select All function ) One would say,...but ICS cannot think of everything ! Right.
But isn't ICS an upgrade from Gingerbread ?
I feel ICS are still in the infancy but also feel that too much was promised on the onset and that was not honest of Google. ( please read previous posts of oncoming ICS and it's vast features. And on the other hand see what Nexus has to offer now. Not really the same I must say..
Take care guys, appreciate your inputs !

ICS
Hi
i have Samsung GT-I9000, firmware 2.3.3
can i install the ICS?
second where can i find guide with all the links all i need to know and do in order to install it in the easier way

Hi !
To reply to the first letter about aroma installer....i hate this **** ! Did to me too. Same thing. Press the three button, go into download mode and install gingerbread, root it and decide if you want to stay with it or still try other roms. ( ICS is still not 100% stable so I would advice you gingerbread xxjw4 2.3.6 which is good or a custom rom like MIUI stable )
For the next question, do the above and use Odin to download any new version gingerbread.

Can a ROM make my phone quicker?

I'm with the stock LG ROM on the LG Thrill.
Can I do something to make my phone faster.

Yes roms and the right tweaks and this phone is awesome
sent from my acidhazard thrill

A custom ROM will make your phone run faster. There are you can tweak the build.prop and other things like scripts to improve the phone as well. Right now I just flashed the Mokee v1.0 ROM and it is the best ROM I have ever used on this phone. I would definitely recommend getting a CM7 ROM as long as you don't care about 3D and HDMI as they are broken currently with CM7.

I find the phone quite snappy, but then again I'm coming from a Samsung Epic. That phone was good but is getting very long in the tooth. I'm using Thrillseeker 2.1 on mine and so far I can say yes, it does improve the phone's speed. Next on the to try list is CM7(which is downloading on my phone as we speak). It's a boring day at work, might as well be productive, right?

The right kernel is really all you need ... But you need to know about basebands also if you wanna get into that .. if you wanna keep it simple just download a few different roms and see what works best for you

hi dude can you explain further about that scripts and how to usw that? tnx a lot dude

Actually, I've been fighting this for a while.
Sometimes the phone is blazing, other times it chugs like molasses.
I've slowly chipped away at the issues, because it's obvious not everybody has these issues, but considering how many times I've tried custom ROMs and kernels, and nothing fixes it, it has to be something I'm running.
Over time, I got rid of Folder Organizer, because that seemed to make it chug. The device seems to have very little RAM and it goes REALLY slow when it's close to full. I also tried things like deleting the downloaded files for the GameLoft titles to speed up the media search on boot. (Less files searched, less RAM used, right?)
Recently one change I made that seemed to help IMMENSELY was uninstalling SwiftKey. I'd LOVE if I could get some help confirming. The circle-swipe to unlock seems much smoother, even after a day, after getting rid of SwiftKey. I'm guessing it just used too much RAM.
At this point, I'd be at a lost otherwise. I changed launchers and used CPU monitors to see what's using up all the CPU, but came up empty.
Additionally, if you haven't tried using Seeder, I'd install that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987032

There will never be a full working ics for stock kernel. I see where users that can't unlock there boot loader are coming from but it will never happen.
But come on its a low end 2010 hand set that was never ment to see any thing past 2.1. But thanks to the development here stock kernel users can have 2.3

Here's my opinion, and please don't go tl;dr -__-
ICS, as cool as it is, was kinda a flop, IMO. Many devices that I observed (excluding the Nexus line) which had an update GB to ICS are now horrid to use. Unless your device was built on ICS (take my One X) or has specs that were meant for ICS (take my Xperia S), then it'll be a horrible experience (my Xperia Ray). JB is by far, 100 times better, but that's not my point. My point is, unless your phone was meant for or can handle ICS, I'd rather not bother using it then.
Can anyone name me 1 decent feature from ICS that we're able to enjoy ? Face unlock ? I don't think so. Smoother performance than GB ? Yeeeaa I don't think so. Camera enhancements ? Nope, didn't think so...see, that's the problem when you're struggling to run the damn OS itself. You work so hard on making it run in the 1st place, you can't even enjoy it like Google intended.
Sure, there's a new UI and all, but so what ? AFAIK, AChep already took care of that with his themes and UI layouts. Cooler launcher ? Tried Holo Launcher yet ? Nope. Can't think of a single improvement ICS brings over GB or Froyo. I'm speaking from experience, believe me. It's no smooth sailing on Unlocked Bootloader as well.
I remember at one point it felt like my phone was being held together by duct tape. Swap, sd-ext partitions, RAM boosters, tweaks, superchargers. Just so I could run ICS. One day I had enough. I wanted to try ICS/CM9 so badly that it reached a point my phone was no longer usable. Lags, reboots, half working cam. It may be better now but I still stand my case.
So take it from me, enjoy Froyo and GB. ICS is no big deal. Never was. The only drawback I see is app compatibility and even then there are jokers making newer and better apps which work on GB too. That's all I'd like to say .

If you guys mention that why not that Xperia 2010 {X8} can't run JB/ICS on stock kernel
Just go get a point MSM7X27 is not a performance chipset but it's a chipset for low price boundary.
Without bootloader unlocked just stay on MiniCM7/GingerDx and others which performance rather impressive and less bug
Re figure the Xperia X8 specs & even minor overclock(Low Usability) + low ram
