Hey guys, my Hero just started lagging with FroydVillain 16.xx version. First of all I thought this was just too many programs, or something like that, so I decided to wipe my phone and install new CM version. But then I got error for wipine an ext. I was suggested try wipe ext via ADB, but nothing happend neither. So I just installed the ROM anyway.
Everything was working, but after couple days it started lagging again. The most sensible feeling with SMS's. Then I'm opening new SMS from notification's bar, it takes forever to show me the text. The same with conversations list in Message application. There is also a lag while typing (AnySoftKeyboard with Lithuanian Keyboard).
The same happend today after reinstalling FroydVillain 17.2 with new RA_Hero 17 recovery. Installion was made yesterday. Now I have ~100 SMS's, if it has anything in common.
Any ideas, guys?
This is my apps' list: appbrain.com/user/karolism/
Well for me if I don't restart my phone every few days it slows down, are you overclocked? if not it might help, also some applications might not close properly and drain battery and other resources and lastly the Hero was built with old technology when it was new (I read this somewhere a while after I got my phone but I could be wrong).
Thank you for the reply. Could you tell me more about overclocking? I'm new at this.

hi.i updated the facebook app this morning and everytime i press messages or friends it force closes.wondered if anyone else has this this problem?? im runnin wolf's v06 which i cannot compliment enough,any help would be great,thanks
hi i'm also getting a similar experience but using rendeiro2005 [MOD/ROM]scamble_v01.2[CM6.1.3].
however my initial problem was the contacts were not syncing with facebook. i so ended up completing uninstalling the app, removing the apk from the system/app folder and then reinstalling from the market (this was a fix on one of his previous roms), it still didn't work so applied the contacts fix from wolf and it worked ok - however I now get fc on messages within facebook.
i was going to post in the dev section but not enough posts yet to be allowed..

All of a sudden (in the last 2 days) Words With Friends has started to force close every time I open it. No recent system changes and uninstall/reinstall didn't help. Anyone else having this issue and any ideas? Thanks.
EDIT: Seeing this issue appear on a number of Android boards.
I am having this issue too, resorted to use my phone. And clueless on the FC.
Force Close on Words with Friends
Same thing happening to me.
Ever since 12/31 my Words with Friends "Force Closes" anywhere from 10 seconds to 1 minute.
I have a Xoom (Android Platform 3.2.1)
I've reinstalled WWF several times, rebooted the Xoom inbetween installs. It just won't work or update.
I noticed one thread saying an update was done on the WWF the day before. I'm hoping that the developer pays attention! I miss my WWF.
mine has been doing the same since new years. Its the Y2K+12 bug!
I skirt the issue by running version 3.51 of WWF. Doesn't rotate but it WORKS! Just google search words with friends APK
Did uninstall current version and then installed the older one.
I've searched until I'm blue in the face on this and am sorry if i've missed it somewhere, but with any version of ShoStock2 ICS (including the newest 2.2.2) I can't get exchange to show emails newer than 3 weeks ago. Older one's show up fine. Also I can send emails and they will come through on the PC, but never on the phone. I've flashed back to ShoStock 1.9.4 gingerbread, and exchange works flawlessly. I have tried connecting on wifi and over the air, both with the same results. I would very much appreciate any insight you all might have.
Edit: Forgot to mention, exchange works fine on AOKP and Phone-Bricker ICS roms.
No one has any thoughts or help on this?
Hi,
I've installed everything yesterday night. Everything including the exchange servers are working fine on my end. Could it be your setting by any chance?
I didn't use any other kernel, I used cherrypicker.
Exchange seems to be working fine at this end.
Running 2.2.2 and using exchange, no issues here. No to be a smart arse but you did wipe first right?

I always wipe data, cache, and dalvik twice before flashing a new ROM (thanks to the advice of the great group of people on XDA forums), and this is the only one that I've had any issue getting exchange to play nice with. It sets up fine and syncs all of my emails except newer than 3 weeks ago. I've ran at least 10 different ROM's including two other ICS versions with no issue on this. I've tried 4 different ShoStock2 ICS versions beginning all the way back to the the RC1 release, all with this same result. I've tried using different kernels with different releases, removing and resetting the exchange acount, rebooting, connecting on wifi and HSPA+, swapped the email apk, held my breath and stood on my head. Something is missing somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
Just to be certain that the problem still exists, I downloaded AOKP and ShoStock2 latest versions last night to try this again. I wiped everything twice prior to flashing and got the same results. Exchange loads every email from today-on with AOKP, but none newer that 3 weeks on ShoStock2. I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but surely someone else has some thought on this. The only thing I have not tried is running a kernel cleaning script. Does anyone think this might help?
The reason why I removed email/exchange apk from my rom was this exactly.
No idea why, but if included with the rom it will just causes problems so I added it as an addon in the kitchen.
I would clear cache/force stop both apps, remove them, then install them again by just grabbing them from the zip file.

Thanks for that reply! At least someone knows I'm not crazy. (I was starting to think I was). I actually ran your ROM a few releases ago, before kitchen was in it and it was pretty smooth. I may have to give it another go. Thanks again for the reply my friend!
Problem solved.
Well, I solved the problem (sort of). I said to hell with fighting to get the exchange working on ShoStock2, and installed LiLChris06's Phone-Bricker 2.5 ROM. This thing is freaking sweet and exchange works like a champ. I've been running this ROM hard now for about two hours with no force-closes, no lag, and the battery seems to be holding up incredibly.
Thanks LiLChris06!!!
Just FYI as i ran into similar problems with OMEGA and SHOStock2 roms, a single exhchange account seemed to run fine, but when i started adding the rest, i had similar issues with it not syncing new mail, and randomly NOT CONNECT to the exchange server in question. everything would setup fine, but eventually the exchange servers would just not update anymore after a couple hours.
if i went into the accounts/sync option in settings, then it would say it synced and would even give a current time, but would never display any new mail. if i went to "refresh" from within the mail app, the account would try to refresh, give an old date of the last refresh and then give the error: "connection error [exchange server name]"
i have not yet tried LilChris's option though, will try that once i get some extra time.

Are you saying that if you included it with the ROM it wouldn't work but if you installed it after the ROM was installed it would work fine?

Yea sounds crazy but that's how it worked for many others.
In the early releases when I included I got complaints left and right, when I added it as an addon it worked flawless for everyone.
i can attest to that (so far)..
i would get exchange issues within 1 hour almost certainly..
its been almost a full 20 hours now and i havent had a single exchange hiccup yet.
one thing that might be worth noting also, i think the app is different that LiLChris uses vs what some of the other devs are using.
i have exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 servers that i connect to..
the options for connecting to 2003 and 2010 (as well as 2007) are the same in the email app that LiLChris uses, such as syncing mail, contacts, calendar (only). 2007 allows syncing of tasks, and i know 2010 allows syncing of tasks and sms, which the email app should detect.
i dont sync tasks or sms, so not a big deal to me, but i did wonder if the actual email apps were different, or different versions, or maybe one was just modded? *shrugs*.
Hi everyone,
I came across a similar thread but it was a different device and the wasn't really a propper answer:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=760974
I could find any answers over the net either so this is a cry for help...
I'm having this weird problem, my contact are disappearing systematically from my device every day or so...
I keep restoring them through Gmail contacts but they keep disappearing with no reason ??? (already occured 3-4 times)
I thought it might be a virus so I installed AVG free antivirus but it wasn't it, next I thought it might be the ROM (I was using RGUI v5) so I installed a new one (Tried official MIUI version 2.10.12) which didn't suite me well so I eventually flashed CM9 stable version for the SG3 download section (which is awsome btw...) and today, after 48 hours it happened again I got 0 in all my contacts/groups (WTF...).
I had outlook <--> Gmail contacts sync installed on my PC so I deleted it (even before flashing new ROMs), also using google calendar synce (but I dont think it's related).
All help would be appreciated, Thanks in advance!
