Hello,
Since I have updated my phone to 2.3.4(KI2), my phone is lagging. Swyping from left to right on home screen isnt smooth anymore. When I'm watching a video on youtube, my phone is stuttering every 3 seconds. It freeze for about 1 sec. but the audio is still going. It's really annoying. I haven't had any trouble when I was running 2.3.3(KE2).
What I've already tried:
-Factory reset
-I have rooted my phone and installed miui and later cynagomod. I haven't had any lag on these custom roms, but I want a stock rom.
-Custom kernel with stock rom.
-I flashed back to KE2 and I haven't had any lag on there but I want to run the latest version because of the battery on 2.3.3.
Can someone help me?
Are you using any power save apps and/or internal power saving? That could have something to do with it.

2.3.3 or 2.3.4?
Can someone help me?
hmmm... still have the problem no solution found yet.
It could be the google widgets. Youtube and gallery do it for me. So far I am thinking that 2.3.3 is the least buggy...
Why not try a custom rom with stock looks + custom kernel, if not, try setcpu and check ondemandx or higher scaling, or you can also try watchdog app from market to if there any app or service eating the processor.
Cognition X2 is the custom "stock" ROM. You might try that.
I see a similar issue if I use certain governors in setcpu. Using the performance governor however seems to resolve it immediately. If you need a kernel recommendation try Siyahs latest.

Change what setting? The kernal will come with its default settings when you flash it
ok, i just was confused, since i have seen alot of comments about changing their voltage setting to over clock and under clock. i wasnt sure if they had a default automatically. kernels are the one thing that confuses me.
Kernels will have default voltage settings and (usually) are not over, or under-clocked by default. If you want to change those values you'll need an app like voltage control.
thanks i'll look into it. would it be best to read through the posts under the SC3 Rom to see what would be a good voltage setting to run with?

I have been running SC3 milestone2 (AWESOME btw) for a while as my daily until the bugs get worked out on ICS. I use Leankernel however because my phone had display (color and lines) with KGB. LK comes overclocked at 1.2ghz. It is fixed, whereas KGB can be overclocked more (up to 1.7 but you most likely wont get past 1.3 or 1.4 and be stable).
If you want to flash kernels an wasy way to do it is with SGS Kernel Flasher (free in the market). It will back up you current kernel so it makes trying different kernels easy.

IMHO, If you like CleanRom, stay on the one you have now til we get a new ICS leak and see if the kernel issues are fixed or test out the latest CleanRom that allows you to install without updating the firmware on the phone for now.

I highly recommend rezrom 3.3, super fast, stable, and good battery life. Plus bored has a patch you can flash after so you dont have to update to the new firmware.
go with clean rom ICS its got plenty of tweaks and runs fast!
How long does it take to update the firmware? Is there a one click method or something easy like that and do I need to be connected to the internet? I only ask because the only I can connect is through my phone.

CleanRom 4.3 using the old firmware patch. No need to upgrade the firmware right now.
But just be aware, the ICS roms have kernels that really suck the battery down when the screen is on. There's a bug that ramps up the CPU to 100% anytime the screen is on. It might be better to just stick with a GB based ROM for right now.
I tried the cleanrom ics it runs real smooth but reverted to my cleanrom BG.some apps that I like are not compatible with ics yet. My suggestion is to try it, without updating the firmware. Remember to make nandroid backup , but you'll have to run the nandroid helper to revert back to a GB Rom.

No, at this time if you update the firmware you cannot revert back to the prior firmware. That is why the best method maybe for you to try an ICS Rom that has a patch that allows you to use that rom without the firmware upgrade. This way if you want to revert back ti Gingerbread you can.
Before making the jump up to ICS, have a play with Ineffabilis.

The old firmware patch should be in the ROM thread for the ROM you pick. Just check the first post and it should be referenced there.

The CleanROM Kang Tapped version OP states that it uses the leaked firmware. I was curious what I Am Marino meant by applying an old firmware patch that allows him to keep the old firmware. If I'm correct, he can run newer GB ROMs with older firmware, and doesn't have to worry about running older GB ROMs that require older firmware since he still uses older firmware.
I suppose this may be a superceeded by S-Off, but until then if we flash the leaked firmware, there is no way to go back, right?
My goal is to have a reliable, bug-free, firmware/kernel/ROM combo.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for any info.
I'm pretty new to this phone if you can't tell.

I've tried most of the rezound roms listed in these forums. I personally like Rezrom and clean romantic, both gb and ics. Currently running cleanrom 4.2 on the new firmware but the latest version doesn't require it (neither does the latest release of Rezrom ics). Both are stable so the big difference is theming. I've noticed that most of the developers are focusing on ics so there haven't been updates to gb roms.
I just went from Cleanrom 1.7 to Nils Business ICS 4.0. Its only been a day since on it but so far I have 52% battery left after 12hrs with moderate use. I have no complaints with this set up and I am updated to the newest RUU leak. Even with the newest RUU I was able to still go back to GB 1.7 and run without issues as well.
If you use market apps for texts like Handcent or anything you will need to do the third party contacts fix so contact pics from facebook or other social networks show up, but if not then no worries.
Running CleanRom 4.3 using the stock kernel, no issues with speed or battery life.
So Im trying to OC my Evo to play n64oid(yessss)
and Im flashing the Silverneedle kernel using Kernel Manager Lite and it hangs on the Flashing Kernel screen.The wheel just keeps turning,am I doing something wrong?I've waited over 5 minutes and it still hasn't completed,am I just impatient or what?lolI've backed up the stock ROM,do I need to change my ROM?
Please help I really need to get N64oid working as thats one of the bigger reasons why Im keeping this phone,the 1.2ghz CPU is just too tempting to not OC and N64oid lags currently,but some people have it playing perfectly on there Evo3d's?I did a kill on all unnecessary apps and it still lags,idk but I need my n64 games
I don't think that kernel plays well on the latest 2.17 build.

Ah which one would you suggest then?
Keep in mind I must be able to OC
OK good news:I sucessfully flashed a Antrhrax Kernel
Bad news:Wont let me OC or install another one.
Kernel manager just keeps going back to the list of roms after I attempt it,what gives?

If you are wanting to run oc you will need to find a kernel that is built to run on the current software your phone is on.. Such are you 2.17 or 2.08? Are you rooted running a stock rom ?
Firstly.. I'll admit that I didn't read as throughly as I probably should have.. I have rooted several phones with the first being the original Motorola Droid and then a couple others.. All fairly tricky but for the most part no big deal... Anyway, I had no idea what S-ON or S-OFF meant nor was it very easy to find information such as this explained in detail..
Anyway, here is where I'm at..
1. Running S-ON, ICS w/ Slim 1.6
2. Phone has a tendency to reboot when it feels like it.. hasn't been too bad but seems to happen more when it's on 4G
3. Phone will NOT allow me to mount the internal storage nor the sd card when I plug into a computer.. like I mean it's not even an option, all I get are charge and internet tethering options..
4. the BIGGEST issue.. I can not tether whatsoever.. I've tried several apps such as Barnacle & PDAnet but none of which work.. I'm sorry I'm just used to the days of my incredible where it was very easy to tether and install ROM's all day long so I guess I was spoiled..
Any help would be appreciated.. the more I read though the more that S-OFF will offer and am I correct to have read that if I do the S-OFF I can turn my phone back to a "locked" status in the boot loader and in turn can also put back to completely stock??
Thanks!

So after checking into some things I tried going a different route..
I downloaded Nils' Business ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 (ICS Latest) (Aroma Installer).. followed the instructions.. installed with S-ON etc.. everything seemed fine.. NOW it won't stop rebooting after I configured Gmail & my work E-mail.. I can't boot into the bootloader menu unless I remove the SD card because it tries to flash the PH98IMG.zip as soon as it loads..
SO what to do next?? HBOOT I have the following information
UNLOCKED
VIGOR PVT SHIP S-ON SL
HBOOT-2.11.0000
Radio-0.95.00.1118r/0.95.0.1223r
OpenDSP-v10.6.0.7611.00.0919

HELP please!!
.make sure you install the kernel and the gb firmware patch...these 2 things missing will cause bootloops .
If you have issues ask in Nils thread and I am sure he will help you out. I have been s off and on ics firmware for awhile prior to the aroma install method. Otherwise I could help you out more
Edit: you will want to select the first 3 boxes on the aroma install screen...Rom...kernel...gb firmware patch
Not sure how the installer works after that...but that's a start.
Edit2: you are currently on gb firmware, in the future if you run a gb Rom you will need to flash the gb kernel for the Rom. Any ics based rims will require the ics kernel AND the firmware patch. Without the firmware patch your sd card won't show up properly. The wrong kernel will end up in boot loops. Hope this helps explain things a bit.

Thank you very much for the help... I really thought I was on ICS firmware.. I know this sounds stupid but isn't Android version 4.0.3 ICS??
OH WAIT it just hit me.. So my ROM is 4.0.3 but the kernel is still GB.. I gotcha.. so of course my next question is.. can I upgrade to ICS firmware without S-OFF or is that a requirement???
I think what I'll end up doing is just flashing GB ROM but curious what would be needed to get to ICS firmware and can I get back again?
You can upgrade to ics firmware (via ics ruu). However with s on, you can only run the ruu you are currently on and/or newer versions/leaks. With s off you can run any ruu you like.
Basically you never ran an ics ruu, so your firmware is gingerbread. You can run either gb or ics. With a gingerbread Rom, you would flash Rom and kernel. With ics Roms, you'll need to flash Rom, kernel, and firmware patch.
If you decide to upgrade and run a ics ruu it will upgrade your hboot, radios, and change the mount point for the sd card. The mount point change is the reason for the firmware patch. After running an ics ruu you will have ics firmware. Running a ics Rom, you'll flash Rom and kernel. If you change mind and want to go to a gb Rom, you'll need Rom, kernel, and firmware patch.
So depending on which version or way you go depends on the method of flashing a Rom. Firmware is independent of roms, and the only easy way to change firmware is via a RUU.
Supposedly the ota is coming soon, supposedly the latest leak is the ota, supposedly the s off exploit will not be able to be patched.
I decided to s off...there's many threads with lots of info...so if you decide to go that route take time, read, and read some more. It's not too hard just take your time and don't get frustrated.
Once s off, most roms flash the kernels automatically, saving you a step. You can also run any ruu you want. Ruu is like a factory image that wipes the phone and upgrades radio, etc....basically it will be like you first got the phone and turned it on.
Everyone has different experiences with radios, some are betterfor some, others worse. Overall the new ics firmware seems to be better on battery and network speed for me at least.
There's many ways to proceed....however most roms that are being worked are ics based...and will be more so when the official ics ota hits.

ICS is the way to go, and for it to run properly you should run the latest RUU leak. This will give you the correct firmware. Once you flash the recovery of your choice back onto your phone and re-root, you really should S-off. Amon-Ra is the best initial Recovery choice, because it'll root anything, right there in recovery. S-off simplifies EVERYTHING. From there, you can flash the ICS Rom of your choice, and not have any of the issues you've been reporting.
With S-off, you can flash whatever radio you want, put a different boot-up splash screen on, and the kernel installs automatically when you flash a Rom.
It's a little time consuming, but it isn't difficult. There are threads from some very helpful guys here that explain how to do everything. So when you have some time, I suggest you just go for it. You'll be glad you did.
Best of luck,
BBEgo

I'm still a little leary on doing the S-OFF so I have a question on this.. What do you mean by this?? What has to match to be able to run ICS ROM's.. Are you saying the ICS Firmware version needs to match the ICS ROM?
