Updated list of Crap you can Pull - Fascinate Android Development

Did a complete rebuild from stock today to solve an sms issue I was having. Meanwhile, skipped the lag-fix, and found the OC kernel.
Went yank happy just for kicks and giggles, and surprisingly, having absolutely no issues. at all. whatsoever. I don't use any of the syncing except the Google contact sync. I also use ADW in the /system/app folder as a TouchWiz replacement.
Please don't pull anything from your device if you don't know what it does, and if you do, don't blame me. My phone never works like everyone else's.

Thanks for the list. Freezing them with Titanium Backup works quite well, too.

FINALLY! A list that isn't strewn about 100 pages of people posting nonsense. You're the man! I've been waiting for a decent list where I didn't have to spend all day reading and taking notes like I was in school again...
Also where might one have found said OC kernel? I'm rooting today, installing CWM, removing bloat, and hopefully OCING!

Freezing them? I donated to Titanium so I have access to everything, but I'm not 100% sure of everything I can do. I just know it came in super handy with my Droid flashing antics

Thanks Daswolven! I'll head over there as soon as I get done with the nitty gritty. Although should I maybe swap my Fascinate out for a replacement first due to the fact I have a few issues one of them being occasionally the unlock button doesn't work and after pressing it the screen goes blank then turns straight back on and stays on? It doesn't happen all of the time so is this a trivial issue?

There's a freeze feature in TiB. If you tap an app on the backup/restore list, you can see that there is a freeze option. This is available to donaters.

Well thank god for donating!

Swype having dead spots???

Hello all. I use Swype as my only keyboard. Used it on all my phones. Swype hates me. But I love the easiness of it. So I've had my note a couple days now, and keep noticing that while Swyping, it's like it his a dead spot, and starts a word, or just inputs complete randomness. Are any of you experiencing this as well?
Same here I quit using it and went back to using the android keyboard. Not sure what is wrong.

I have the same issue but only when I use my finger not the s pen. Happened on two separate phones. From stock and after rooting and OC'd. I think it's possibly a software thing. I'm going to try to remove stock Swype and install beta

Get the free ics keyboard from the market. Its vastly superior to any of the included keyboards on this phone.
If you decide to try it out remember you have to enable it in the settings menu before it will show up in the input options.

I've noticed an issue with Swype only on Gingerbread. When I updated my Infuse, Swype started acting up. Same issues I occasionally have now. I have to almost long press and slowly draw the word out for it to be accurate.

I just want to chime in and say that I'm experiencing exactly the same thing.
Swype used to be my favorite keyboard, but I had to give it up because of the "Dead spots".
I removed the built in swype, hoping the beta would work better, but as previously mentioned in the thread, it fc's before you can get even close to using it.
Everything works for me, I can Swype fast and everything is picked up. The only time I notice anything peculiar is when I'm using one hand and some other part off my hand touches the screen besides the finger I'm using to Swype.

Glad to know I'm not the only one having problems. but sucks that I have to pull the pen out just to Swype anything
Well on the way to my fairytale!
I've noticed this problem as well, and it didn't happen on my international Note. I don't think it's dead spots on the keyboard, but rather no tolerance whatsoever for going off the side of the keyboard. Going past the left or right side a tiny bit immediately ends the current stroke and starts a new one even though you're in the middle of a word. Swype on the international one didn't do this; it allowed you to do off the edge a little without ending the word.
---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------
Speaking of Swype issues, am I the only one with a major Swype bug in the email app? Editing already typed text doesn't work right. When you tap a word alternate words pop up and selecting one works, but if the one you want isn't there, you're supposed to hit the Swype key to highlight the word then swype again and it'll change, but the word won't highlight, and the new word will be inserted in the middle of the old word, wherever the cursor is. Then if you touch elsewhere, the new word will be inserted again wherever you touch.
This error is on the international version, as well, and I'm surprised they haven't fixed it. It makes using the OEM email app a pain.

Hey Ash, yeah, same problem here. Not so much deadspots as much as the slightest lifting of the finger off the keyboard has it consider it the end of the word (or whatever garbage it comes up with) The "accuracy" is awful in terms of the words it comes up with as well. I've tried every speed/accuracy setting I could and it still comes up with the most ridiculous suggestions at times.

You know Joe, I had just started wondering if it was a pressure issue.... Like when I turn my finger to change direction, pressure difference... And with the pen, because I'm holding it there wouldn't be that change. Either way, it's crap. Lol.
I restored my data from Swype, sooooo all my settings are the same. Hadn't thought about messing with them, but I may try that.. Just wish it worked better... And only gave me my usual autocorrect errors I an prepared to deal with those
Well on the way to my fairytale!
Not just Swype. I can't use any keyboard without issues. Ever try a long-press to get the @ symbol or hit the space bar on the fly? And turning off autocorrect... I still haven't got that to work through a reboot.
Time to freeze this one and grab the beta!

Swype is also very themeable... And I always text in portrait... I use Swype because its easier and faster. But have tried thumb, was a big fan of it for a while
Well on the way to my fairytale!
to install the swype beta you need another phone and its a kinda long process i'll just hit quickly..
download the swype installer on the other phone (A NON-Note) start the installer once its downloaded the package use adb to pull the package it downloaded to the phone then push it to the note and install it. Old trick to get swype on the HTC inspire when it was new.

Why are all roms laggy?

Hi,
I have came from a rooted Htc Desire to this Samsung phone, i never tried the stock samsung rom, i just rooted and flashed a custom rom straight away.
I have flashed about 30 roms and have not fiund one that is not lag free.
Why is this?
Cheers.
If you tried ics then all of them are not fluid till now...

To OP, lag is usually caused by kernels more than it is ROM's. I would suggest you do all wipes and flash a kernel cleaning script before changing kernels etc.

This also depends on the firmware version.
The first ics were slow at scrolling... but this is improved in later version.
Also every version has its problems.
Hi,
I always do a fresh wipe and use the kernel cleaning script, i have just flashed the Omega rom with the speedmod kenel and although they are great i always have a slightly laggy home screen and the app menu is the same.
Also the homescreen button has a bit of lag when you switch on.
I have had this problem with just about every rom i have tried.
Anyone recommend a rom that is smooth?
My phone is still laggy with all roms i've tried so far, mainly the app list screen, home screen and contacts screen.
Are there Hboots for this phone like there was for the Desire?
Cheers.

Which roms did you actually try?
No such thing as hboots on samsung phones.
Hi,
I have probably tried all roms up until 3 days ago, the most stable rom i tried was probably lightning rom flashed through Odin but was still not very smooth, i am about to flash Omega 9 rom with the latest speedmod kernel and see how i get on with that.
No ICS ROM is going to be perfect, and I think you should commemorate the work that developers have done to get the ROM's up to the standard they are, considering they have to work with little to no source code from Samsung. Samsung is always very slow at releasing source code, and therefore developers have to work with leaked ROM's which are still in development themselves.
I'm not trying to hate, I'm just saying that all ROM's will have their issues at the moment, and simply stating, "Why are all ROM's laggy?" is very general and very untrue, because I use Simplistic ROM, and I have not experienced any lag since flashing the latest version a week ago. Most ROM's now are getting to an excellent standard and great performance and battery life.

I remember the GB stock roms were pretty lag free usually. But a huge battery drainer and for me, ugly(TW).
If you really really really really want a lag free(almost) experience, get an iphone. Not the best suggestion but i bet that most of us android users out there right now experiences more lags than the norm iphone user. I have my galaxy s2 and although all my friends and family has an iphone, im greatly satisfied with this little wizz. rocking latest CM9. and not switching phones anytime soon.
Or maybe flash something GB
MIUI
You might have already tried MIUI Roms for your Desire?
Galnet GB 2.3.23 is fully lag free and stable......
ICS MIUI also well accepted and appreciated by the people now, but to wait for a fully bug free one for couple of weeks more...
Thanks for the replies!
iam on stock 2.3.5 wiv 385+ apps all big time an my phone is neva laggd or crashed i get a decent batt life iam pretty satisfied wiv it,i tried heavy mutitasking but still all is good , don kno wat prblm ur facing...may the kernel is not matching wiv ur desired rom...pm me for any comments or doubts
I use this, GB with no laggs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422742&highlight=tweaky
There are more recent kernels, so try: Siyah, N.E.A.K. or new ikki (all of them are top noch).
And flash latest jKay:

And straight after you posted that, the OP just went “Thank you everyone,” and didn't thank anyone for their wasted time. Classic.

Is odd, surely depends on the rom you have installed, are you having the same problem with a stock firmware?

I believe that Rage and EclipticRez have Snuzzo's custom kernels on them. I don't know what ViperRez comes with. You might try to up the minimum CPU voltage to 384 from 192, and running a different governor. I've noticed that problem go away for me when I change the CPU clock speed on the low end.
Do you notice it from waking when the screen is unlocked, or does it just happen randomly?
Usually it would occur randomly. I'll tweak the voltage and change governors and see what results I get. Thanks for the advice, I'll let you know how it goes.

Sorry guys you not going to wanna hear this. I didn't want to either 3 months ago when i had to do it. I lost 3G and my screen went hay wire. The fix was pretty much, lock, flash ruu, then re-root and install new custom rom. I have not had a problem sense and still run viral, redux, and eclipt with no issues. Let me know how this works out for you.

When you say "Lock"... Does that imply that you weren't S-OFF and you just relocked the bootloader? What if I already S-OFFed her phone?
I've got the phone running on Page Plus. I haven't got 3G working, nor do I own a SIM card. Don't think this really matters, but figured I'd mention it. I'm going to try tweaking some settings again in DFS tonight. Apparently someone updated the guide and may have the fix for getting data.
My gf is whining about how I need to buy her a better phone, though. Only because this one is glitchy/freezes. A fix for that would spare me the money I'd spend buying another phone. The rezound has amazing potential if I could get rid of the glitch.

If you are s-off you don't need to lock before running the RUU. I would definitely try running the RUU and then putting a custom ROM on there before buying another phone.
My Rezound has been really wonky recently as well. So going back to stock and starting over will fix it? It does stuff like having to press the power button 2 - 3 times for the screen to pop up and is generally really laggy. Sometimes when I start the screen up it pops up for 1 second then goes away then comes back..it's really weird.

Flashed RUU. RUU didn't fix it. I'm still having the same issues described in the first post.
I've tried all suggestions....only conclusion I can come to is that its something to do with Snuzzo's kernel; because only experience the problem with roms running that Snuzzo kernel. Any dev suggestions on configurations that could fix this issue since only a few of us are having these issues?

Yes, but with quite a bit of issues and none of the Touchwiz features (Not going to argue if that is a good or a bad thing).
I think most users root to get back to a stock feel, leaving behind TW, etc. As for this nightly, it's stable enough for a dd. After last night's build, the only major issue seems to be the graphical glitches that happen in Gmail and a few other apps. Battery life and overall performance doesn't seem to be an issue.
Users waiting for an official 4.3 TW could be waiting a long time.

After last night's build, the only major issue seems to be the graphical glitches that happen in Gmail and a few other apps. Battery life and overall performance doesn't seem to be an issue.
Users waiting for an official 4.3 TW could be waiting a long time.

I've been a big aosp guy for a while but coming to this phone I am really digging TW. Always heard so much hate on it. Makes stock android feel so plain. Not trying to start a debate but I am excited to here that this phone will eventually get the 4.3 update.

In your opinion, how is the in call volume? thats the major thing keeping me away from ASOP because I use the phone for work and to make calls almost all day
The volume is great now. The maintainer has merged an audio fix and is now a permanent part of the build. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406788&page=17

Call volumes were really loud. My biggest problem when I played with 4.3 was the graphical glitches. Call me superficial, but they are very annoying and when trying to use logmein ignition, it was unusable because of them.

I was reading about that too. I'll wait. I have a nexus 7 so I have my stock fix... For now. I'll have to wait until its fixed.

I agree that the graphical glitches in 4.3 are annoying but if nobody uses the roms and reports issues and the possible things that trigger them then they will never improve. By the way, what rom were you running?

the paranoid android 4.3, build from last week or so. The graphical glitches apparently are across all aosp ROMs so I don't think its something that will be fixed soon.

I'm running 4.3 and the graphics are the only downside, but someone posted a fix for GPU rendering on page 22 of that thread. Volume and GPS worked great right off the bat.

Lollipop Update finally hit my phone

Just popped up with the Lollipop update....arround 530mb. Took forever and had to do a few updates afterwards.
Seems to be running pretty smoothly with no issues so far. Not too different other than some pull down menu's etc.
Good luck all!
That's nice, I heard it was 5.0.2 with Sense 6.
Im actually thinking about doing a fresh install since I have so many mods and reversing everything seems daunting. I could also restore a nandroid backup as well. Here comes Lollipop finally, wish it had Sense 7 though but that probably won't come til the 5.1 update in a few more months.
Changed the date to Wednesday and got it to come down. I'll see how it goes. First time in a long time back on a smartphone since my GS3, lol. I kind of want to try out CM11, but I have grown lazy and I don't want to do much tinkering.
Seems okay, just takes a while to dl and setup
Pretty bad battery drain

So I'm guessing this makes us lose root?

No Joy
I have downloaded it three times and each time it tries to install I get the red exclamtion point then it reverts back 4.4.4.
Any ideas??
Maybe corrupted download...have you saved the ota? if so post it,would be appreciated.

Once the update finally finishes downloading, it takes a nailbitingly long time to work its way through the updating process.
Part of my anxiety was I pulled the stock recovery from the new OTA package, flashed THAT as stock by accident, realized my mistake and immediately flashed the 4.4.4 stock recovery back, and THEN ran the update. It's working, but good lord, what an anxiety attack!

Where does it save it to?
NM, I found it.
Where would you like me to upload it?
Google,dropbox or something of the sort
Sigh.... I hate the new stock lock screen. I can't use LockerPro lock screen (it keeps bugging out). They removed the cool globe feature in the Stock Clock. They didn't even fix the GPS turning on by itself.
Anyone else have their GPS being turned on randomly?
I had that problem with 4.4.4, I haven't seen it yet with Lollipop. Just an occasional on then off right away.

The IQ Agent service is still there, dang it!
Lock Screen
Noticing, when I have the option not to show certain information on my lockscreen, such as text message previews, and powersave mode on, I can't fully control the music widget on the lockscreen, I can only pause and go forward, I can't go back

Yeah, mine started immediately after i got the update. Really annoying. I had it on 4.4.4 for a week and it went away. Now it's back.
Does ATT actually do any testing on this? You'd think with all these delays that they'd have at least tested this basic thing. Now I don't know what to do
Just posted this to MoVersi. Retweet if you're experiencing the same GPS issue. Maybe we can get some response
