I'm considering flashing Molten 2.2. The main reason is it includes Speedy V7 scripts. I tried and failed to install the Speedy script before and hoped it would already be running in Molten 2.2. Is Speedy V7 just automatically installed and running on Molten 2.2, or are there steps I'll need to take to get Speedy running in Molten? Thanks.
It should work right out of the box

Thanks Ryman. I flashed it and only had a few minutes to play with it. I tried corporate sync and couldn't get connected. Probably my fault but had to flash back to stock just because this is my work phone.
I noticed the scrolling in the app drawer is much smoother than stock as well as home screen scrolling. That's probably my #3 problem with this phone.
#1 is I get stutters now and then in my video recording.
#2 is the jerky scrolling of the web browser.
Sometimes I wonder if the phone's software is just only using one processor core. My Samsung Galaxy S 4G (single core same speed) never stuttered taking video. Scrolling performance was about equal.
That's how it was back on froyo, but now with GB we got both cores engaged and if you use the CPU sliders in ROM ToolBox, you can make it go FASTER!! I keep it set to 1000 for both Max and min and keep it charged all day. I gain flying speeds, but also gain a battery life of 10 hours if that

I saw the sliders in Rom Toolbox but I thought I had read a while back that they have no effect because of the locked bootloader. Overclocking or even locking the clock at 1ghz would be great. Maybe it's time for me to get exited here and reflash.

No afaik you can use the sliders as a governer... I use setcpu to underclock when charging and trust me you don't wanna try and use the phone at 216mhz...
You cannot overclock the device though.

Just very curious as to why your install of speedy was a fail?
I can help u get it running if u would like to stay stock and try speedy...
Just let me know.
I can also help u get it running on any rom.
VERY easily done...
Make sure you have the option set to view hidden files. I flashed it like 5 times before I realized that haha
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
That was it. Just had to view hidden files. I ran Speedy a few days but then had an occasion to take a video today and it still pauses and stutters. Web page scrolling is still not smooth.
Try using ROM ToolBox CPU sliders to raise them up when you want to take videos.
Glad that worked, you flash it like crazy "why isn't it there?!?!?" And then your like "oh, it was already there" haha

Had anyone had any problems playing pandora or slacker radio with the new nero 5?
they both worked fine for me with bionix fusion but now just cut out all the time.
I was thinking maybe it has something to do with the modem.
let me know if you've had the same problem and gotten it fixed.
Thanks.

Pandora works fine for me with Nero 5
Works great for me as well. I use it in car in landscape mode. I had to install adfree because pandora ads are in the weirdest place in landscape. I also think it sounds a tad better in nero5
Are you overclocked? I once had that problem with a ROM. Had something to do with minimum CPU processor speed. I had set it too low on SetCPu and had to bump it to 400 or something like that....
No, I'm not overclocked.
Could I have messed up something when I odined back to stock?
Or maybe it's my 3g, I'm not sure. But it does suck.
Should I do the 1.4 overclock kernel?
Thanks for helping.

Have you tried to reboot? The other day I did have a problem connecting for some reason. It would just show the splash screen. After I rebooted it worked, not sure what happened as I could still do calls and texts.
I had the same problem w nero4 but I flashed 5 before I was able to figure out the problem. So far no problems with 5

I've tried rebooting and it works again for a little while but then it cuts out again.
It's weird it cuts out and then some times it just starts back up when ever it wants. And it seems like it just sucks up all my ram.

Might want to try fixing permissions and see what happens. Do you have SetCpu installed? If so, what settings are your CPU speeds set at?
I don't have setcpu right now, I'm not over clocked right now. As for the permissions how would I fix thoses?
Sent from Samsung Vibrant rooted with Nero V5
You can fix the permissions using rom manager. Just open rom manager and in the utilities sections it says fix permissions, choose that and then reboot when it is finished. I have not had any problems with pandora. Haven't used slacker though.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
It could be the outageously low-memory kernel that's used at the moment by Nero, Axura and others.
There's only 304 MB of RAM available for the user, compared to the usual 320 MB from the JI6 kernel or even 340 MB from the custom JI6 with Voodoo kernels.
In Nero v5 I used Autokiller Memory Manager to change the system's auto process killing parameters, and I saw that by default it's set to kill Provider processes (like Pandora's background playback) until 90 MB of RAM is available. And since it's so easy to reach less than 70 MB free with this bloated Samsung bull **** (even though the bloatware has been mostly removed), your Pandora is ended by the system in order to keep enough memory available.
Another reason to get CyanogenMod working on the Vibrant: I tried CyanogenMod 6.1, an absolutely pure Android build... 100% AOSP, 0% Sam**** (except for kernel), and I have much more memory available. Try it out.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I'll try the auto memory killer. I tried fixing the permissions with no luck and I installed and reinstalled pandora with no luck.

Why is it that I always have to reset "never kill app" in auto memory kill for pandora? Even if I don't reboot my phone it changes on its own.

Im on a mission to get pandora working on my X2....
I have tried it on stock, eclipse 2.0.1 and 2.0.2...Liberty is next. I have tried it as a system app and regular install as well. I have tried older versions, hacked versions and the current version.
I thought it may have been due to the poor service I get but I just spent that last hour or so on my OG Droid and was considering never leaving it because it worked great (when not using the widget). I tried both widget and non widget on the above roms with all the different app tries.
So If you know of a tip, trick or setup that works for you with it so it doesnt consistantly skip/cut out or take 1-2 min or more to switch to a song when pressing next song button then please share in your sucess.
Oh and I have to use 3G...hmmmm also note that it didnt work worth a damn on my X2 in town with perfect service or through wifi.
Thanks!!!
Im on Liberty & have had no problems with pandora. Might give it a try.

Nothing special done just running as normal on liberty? Which version of pandora?
Pandora runs fine on mine , skips when I get notifications but other than that runs good. Eclipse 2.0.2

No nothing special, v1.5.14 but only because its a version with a transparent widget & haven't updated to v1.5.15 yet. Runs fine tho
I had no luck with Eclipse but I loaded Liberty last night and was playing it in my basement which is remarkable considering I couldnt use it in town with full signal on Eclipse.
Just adding to the conversation, I also get some of the problems you have. Sometimes, not all the times, Pandora takes a long time to load a song. I get good reception on Verizon but sometimes I'm just stuck sitting there waiting for the next song for a few minutes. I dont notice any skips though. My girlfriend has the same phone running the same stuff I am and hers sometimes seems worse than mine. We are both running Eclipse 1.3 with some scripts. I havent really tried Pandora on the stock ROM though.
My wife's X2 has a terrible time playing Pandora. It starts playing and just stops. It constantly does this, no matter what. Its a completely stock phone. She won't let me root it because her OG Droid got quirky as all get-out after being rooted, so shes a bit jaded...
I use pandora every day at work with no issues on eclipse 1.3 its actually playing right now as I type this.

I am starting to think it's just quirky. I have had it working pretty good so far on liberty. 30 seconds new song load on avg. It was quick on my of OG DROID though so I really think its the x2

I've had no problems with Pandora on stock, liberty, or eclipse. The one time I had an issue with Pandora, which was when I first got my DX2 - I fixed it by going into settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Pandora -> Clear Cache / Clear Data
After doing that and restarting the application, the first run took a tiny bit longer than all other subsequent runs but I no longer had any stuttering or freezing in the application.
Before I tried the above, I simply tried reinstalling the application and that did not seem to fix the issue at all. I don't know if it will fix your issue but it's probably worth a try.

Tried all that. Seems to be working good on liberty. Every once in a while if I hit next or I hate the song it might take as long as a min or two to get to the new one. No skipping/cutting out now and song to song if I let it run through the song is pretty much instant

I noticed setting the option in pandora to keep the screen on seems to have eliminated all of the skips for me.

i had the same issues on Eclipse 1.3. i reverted back to stock rooted 2.3.4. i haven't flashed a new custom rom because of this reason. i'll follow this thread to see if there are any solutions.
I couldn't get YouTube to play yesterday on 3G. I haven't tried wifi yet to see if it's just my 3G signal or what.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
I just watched a video I posted on YouTube over 3g and it worked just fine. Mind you, I didn't watch it in HQ mode since it was over 3g, but no jumping, skipping, etc. Worked just fine.
As for games, sometimes they pause, but not always. Overall, I'm getting better performance out of CM7 than I have out of any other ROM, stock or custom.
GTA 3 plays beutifully just like on Eclipse 2.0.1
One thing I have noticed when I ran Smartbench 2011 is that my Productivity and Gaming indexes dropped going from CM7 Alpha to CM7 Beta.
On Alpha (with the extra core constantly on), this is what I had:
Productivity: 3395
Gaming: 2581
After going to CM7 Beta, this is what I have:
Productivity: 1776 avg.
Gaming: 2383 avg.
I then launched system tuner pro and noticed that only 1 cpu was on. But, it appears as if the 2nd core never comes on, at least from what I can tell. If I tell System Tuner Pro to enable both cores and run my benchmarks, I notice that I get back the scores I had before.
Now, I have noticed a slight drop-off in games at times. My question is, is there a way I can monitor if the 2nd core ever comes on when it's needed? Is there an app I can run to monitor this and then I can see if/when the 2nd core came on and at what frequency it ran? Heck, are the any logs I can look at?
Just curious.
Also, one thing I have noticed. If I mess with the Memory Auto-kill settings (such as with V6 Scripts), I notice games get a lot laggier, especially Fruit Ninja. If I leave them at the default settings CM7 comes with, the games perform a lot better.
Thanks!
I didn't have any of these issues on eclipse (any version) so this is new to me.. YouTube works but it constantly pauses or restarts..Iv only tried over 3g so I'll try wifi today. On some other sites my browser wont recognize flash player or the video will be scrambled in black and pink streaks...the strangest thing.
Could the theme I'm using have anything to do with it? Its the epic blue and bold..

I just went to YouTube via the stock browser and the video played just fine over 3g. I also went to FoxNews to try and stream a video there and it worked just fine under CM7 Beta.
You DO have Flash installed, right? Just making sure! I know on my phone I have both Adobe Flash and Adobe AIR installed.
I had AIR installed and had to install flash player on this rom just to get any bids to show up in the browser...never had to on any other rom or stock. I might just reflash the rom and go from there...otherwise its back to eclipse til the next cm7 update

That's because the CM7 doesn't come with everything installed. It's a bare-bones ROM where as the other ROMS, including stock, include the Adobe stuff in it.
Like I said, I have it all installed and YouTube and other flash-sites show up just fine in my browser without any issues. The sound is fine, the video is fine, no choppiness in them at all and that was over 3g.
Ok thanks. So at least I know that its not the rom. Ill have to try something. Clearing the data on apps fixed most of the force closing issues but nothing has fixed the video issues yet. Unless its the theme or another app in the background interferring.. scratching my head on this one

If anyone else has the YouTube issue just go to the market and uninstall the YouTube updates...YouTube stays installed and then works without the constant pausing and restarting. Games are still pausing but enter want to delete my data to try to fix that

hey folks,
So I am running a rooted TB with SoaB custom ROM and SSLauncher as my launcher. An issue that has now gotten out of hand is when I make a call. I am using the stock phone system, and when I access it, it comes up quick. BUT when I select a number to call, I can expect to wait between 10 to 15 seconds on average for the call to actually begin (screen changes to picture). Answering calls is instant, but making calls takes soo freaking long.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have found that this happens on some roms and not on others. You could try running a different dialer or running V6 Super charger if you have not yet, both might help. Also try switching up the kernel, governor settings, and bulletproofing the dialer app in using the V6 Script
I wonder if its ur launcher, i had no issues runnin it stock.

Im running V6, but don't know how to bulletproof it. I will try a different dialer.

As you can see from the title, the phone app "Dialer" launches very slow every time i leave the app for more than 5 minutes. Actually its not just the dialer app but also i noticed that with some apps like messaging, it takes around 3 seconds to launch. It started to annoy me specially because, first i make calls a lot and second because i know that i am using 1.5GHz dual core processor "one of the reasons that made me buy this phone". i have tried the galaxy phones many times specially the s2 and the note and i never see that specially that their processor is technically slower. Does anybody notice that? and is there a way to solve this problem?i don't care about other apps, i just want the dialer to launches quickly like it does with the Galaxy phones and any 1.5GHz dual core processor.
Now i am using ICS rooted with locked bootloader. Still no difference than Gingerbread. still launches the app very slow. Any suggestions, Ideas?? please!
I agree. In GB there was no such issue, but the lag is very noticeable in ICS.
Very Annonying indeed.
I AGREE
there has to be a way to tweak this... some dev has to find it
Factory reset.
And don't use any ram optimizers or apps killer.

i did factory reset like a thousand times. the problem is not new with ICS , GB too was little slow with the "phone" application except that now ICS, its more noticeable. and BTW i dont use any ram optimizers or apps killer at all,actually never had! and for rooting the only apps i use are SetCPU, Root Explorer and titanium backup!

i checked the stock ICS dialer that was posted in there but i didnt like it.
i then downloaded the EXdialer from the market with the black ICS theme and its FAST.
This lag in Phone drove me crazy so much that I rooted (locked bl) my phone in attempt to improve the performance.
After freezing dozens of apps for more RAM, strangely now my Phone app launches a lot faster... not sure if it is a memory issue or that in the process of reflashing I got a smoother ROM.... somehow.
I also installed the ICS Dialer as mentioned above which is very fast. I am still using the SE Phone app, but keep the ICS Dialer just in case the lag come back.
