I went back to gb. That leak was real bad. Lots of freezing and little issues. Don't say its my device, because i have 2 and both had a lot of the same little issues. The only thing i miss is mms pics being zoomable.
I hated the keyboard and some other Stuff
To me it felt more like a screwed up no good custom Rom by a rookie

It wasn't your device. It was both of them. It runs like a dream on my phone, not one freeze or any little issues at all.

I second this. mine runs flawlessly on DAGr8 alpha 1 version, not even 2.

I can 3rd this. Its running with zero problems on my device, both A1 and A2 of DaGr8's ROM. It could have been the method you used to flash the ROM, or some of the programs you possibly backed up, but for me i have had zero reboots, only one FC on Touchwiz which i don't use anymore, and no other glitches.
i switched back to GB too, ICS was almost perfect, only Navigon and tether not working (unless paying $50 to ATT).
I miss ICS, fell much smoother than GB, will switch back when we have more steady ROM.
I'm using Alpha II on both mine and my wife's - no issues. As for the keyboard, I'm using the latest Swiftkey 3 Tablet beta.
Out of the number of already active threads on the subject you needed your own?
Thur u arrrrrrgh
I notice the occasional hitch for a few minutes after a restart of the phone but after that everything is fine, though i cant seem to get samsung apps working and lost compatibility with a few apps that don't work even when sideloaded. Gonna stick it out till the final build is ready though.

i used the self installing exe rom. The original leak, not a custom rom. I dont want a custom rom either.
I didnt install any backups. I have all the apk's and use appmonster to install them all.
in mms the send and attach buttons where switched and my wife *****ed cause she kept hitting the attach button when she was trying to send.
I dont want a custom rom. If the self installing exe leak rom might be the problem, what other way can it be flashed? Only other thing i did was flash recovery and install SU
If you're having problems most people would say install fresh and DO NOT use a program to restore apps, download them one by one thru the app store.

yeah no kidding. I just said i install all my apps from apk's. Appmoster only starts the apk install one after another. it doesnt install them for you and its not backups.... its apk's
Another thing was the appliction monitor was always turning red just from having something as simple as web browser openned. The memory management seemed to be horable.
Im trying to locate another way to install, maybe odin or something.
It's too bad your against trying any custom roms. For one they get rid of all that at&t stuff you possibly never use; By doing that extra memory is freed up in the process. I didn't have that many issues when I flashed the self installing leak, but I decided to go with DAGR8's Alpha 2, it's faster than the stock leak was. Every time I re-flash a phone, I re-install everything from market, I don't backup anything. It doesn't take that long to type in my user / password and have everything synced back from the market anyway.

I freeze what i dont want.
Market installs APK's !!!! i have all the apk's i want installed and install them MYSELF. I AM NOT installing backups ..... geesh
so everyone happy with the ics must be running deodexex roms??????
that must be it. Like i said, ics leak is crap. its only good if you take and screw and tweak it.
its gonna be real sad when att pushes ota ics update. the phone is going to become a joke in the eyes of regular people who dont mess with these things
I'm running the leak as is, with no mods or root or anything, and it is ****in' fabulous. Aside from the known issue of the TW launcher initially crashing once or twice, it has been pretty much flawless.

This, right here, is why I am avoiding the upgrade.... Hell, it's why I haven't even rooted my phone yet. I would take some glitches and errors if the battery were improved. But since it's worse -- no way. More memory consumption too? Double no way.

I received my replacement X2 yesterday due to a failed "back" button. My original was running stock rooted 2.3.4 with the battery fix and a few bloat apk's removed. My new phone came with 2.3.5 installed.
I'd like to speed things up on the phone, but absolutely have to have BT, WIFI, camera, and video camera. I also need to fix this battery % issue. The phone needs to be rock solid without the lousy stock lag I experienced with my old phone.
Suggestions?

if you wanna stay stock i suggest deodexing the phone and frezzing or removing the bloated apps you dont use. if you want another rom that has all those capabilities your best bet would be to stick with a gingerbread based rom eclipse, cm7. cant tell you which is faster cause i havent used either of them
Try Eclipse 2.3 by Nitro. It has perfect stability, good battery life, and the speed is much better than stock. It is the only DX2 Rom that is completely finished with virtually no bugs. It has been around for awhile, so if you have any issues with installing it odds are someone here can help you out.
CM7 is stupid fast, but the wifi is sort of glitchy. Eclipse is slightly slower than CM7 but much, much more stable. Both are considerably faster than stock.
I've ran Eclipse for about 4 months, and CM7 for over a year. I prefer CM7 because I like the speed and can deal with the bugs, but it's all preference.
If you've never installed a Rom before, read up on the stickied posts and familiarize yourself with the process before you do anything. Pay special attention to the different bootstrap recoveries and sbfing. And ALWAYS follow the instructions for installing them EXACTLY as they are written unless otherwise told
Here's the link for Eclipse http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198857
Note that Eclipse uses 2.3.5 and CM7 uses 2.3.4
Also, 2.3.5 fixed the majority of battery issues that were present on 2.3.4
If you need your phone for work and school like I do, stay away from any Roms not using Gingerbread. They are all very unstable and buggy if you use your phone a lot.
Thanks for the suggestion. I installed Eclipse 2.3 this afternoon after work and I really like it so far. I didn't like the sd flip flop so I found the script to change it back to stock. I also became very accustomed to the stock calendar. Do you know if there's a way to install that?
I'm currently setting everything up and reinstalling all my apps.
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2
Ha yea I hated the sd card flip flop, changing it back was always the first thing I did after flashing lol
I know that on the Eclipse OP there is a download for what it calls "non-inverted calender". I don't really ever use my calender app, so I don't know whether or not that means the stock calender or something different. If you want to give it a try, it is not flashable so you simply have to install it using the normal .apk file method (download, put on sd-card, install from inside whatever file manager you use; I use Astro).
Always make a nandroid backup before though, just in case you don't like it or something goes wrong you can always revert back to how it was at the time of the backup.
Actually, it's not the calendar itself, it's the widget. I really like the stock blur calendar widget because it would show three events instead of just one. Very handy.
Does anybody know what I need to do to be able to have the stock calendar widget?

Hello,
I have Sola for 6 months by now and it was a hell of a phone till i decided to upgrade to ICS. After that, my performance decreased signifcantly and I can't even do simple tasks. Tasks which a low end phone can do, even better then mine, such as the simple Galaxy Y S5360. And, yes, i get pissed when I look this phone behaving better then mine.
I tried to downgrade to GB, to upgrade to ICS, install a custom ROM of ICS and etc. Lately i tried Munjeni JellyBean, and after that, eXperience Innovation ROM. All of them have a good performance, but still, they do poorly then the Galaxy Y.
I miss my performance and i want to ask you guys, how the hell can i have my phone acting like a real dual-core phone?
Hope you guys can help me
Thanks

The jb roms are not really stable yet. You can try experience v2 rom which is ics based rom and then if you have an unlocked bootloader u can change kernels or even oc ur device. And also what di you mean by slower?

I mean that i can't even multitask with dolphin browser and some other app without having major slowliness in the phone. Or anything that my phone can possibly do (by his specs) and is not being able to do it. I have to uninstall Facebook app and Messenger app cause they crap the hell out of my phone.
Won't the GB experience would be faster/more efficient? Can't you guys reccomend me any "THE ****" rom for Sola? I mean...a kernel and a rom that can really bring me the experience of having a good phone (again).

Thank you all for your answers.
I'm installing Speedy Sola v5.5 now and eXperience™ v2...I will report in a few hours.
I've tried to install the kernel via CWM and my phone got stuck on the boot screen.
Tried with 2 SpeedySola kernels already (ICS and JB) and they do not work.
Just reporting.

Wait there is a kernel for the experience v2 included i the zip u fastboot that first and then u copy the kernel in sd then flash it via recovery. Or if you already do that try wiping data. Hope that helps

I was randomly installing kernels (dumb attitude) until my phone just can't run CWM anymore. Nor being at flashmode or fastboot @usb connection.

Root it and debloat it asap. It would fly on and won't get back to Earth then, I bet.
Back up always before doing stuff
Before even thinking about installing new roms, kernels,mods, tweaks.. anything be sure that you've backed up using recovery and have saved it not only on your phone but your pc also.. that way if anything f***s up, all you need to do is restore and your saved.
Okay, i need your guys help again.
My phone did great till now, but its kinda slow already. So, i want to upgrade the kernel/rom/whatever to make it fly again. Would you guys recommend me some updates?
I was thinking of "eXperience Innovation" or maybe "Ultimate Rom V11". Those roms will make my phone better? As i said previously, I just need my phone behaving like a dual-core powerful phone as it is.
Thanks :cyclops:
Install cm9 or cm10.1. best roms for our phones, hands down
I suggest that you must try project xvr rom, its more stable and really smooth, no problem with multitasking, etc.

sorry ahead of time for the rambling and wall of text.
i have a few questions i suppose. im currently running the latest 4.1.2 release on my razr. stock. i went through 2 phones recently because the update was wreacking havoc on them. before the update i loved my razr. only issue i had was battery life, but i cant lie, was my fault for playing battery hogging games ALOT. lol. so, i got my latest replacement phone. i have the same apps as before, minus a few ive ditched. the phone is feeling laggy/sluggish now. it may partly be from tsf shell, which i love but would ditch if need be to get my phone back, even though it never caused lag before the update.
From reading around the razr isnt getting another update antime soon, if at all. its pretty much on its last leg, as theyre moving away from it im sure. ive tried numerous things to get it running a bit smoother and its helped to an extent, but there is still some lag.
my question is, whats the best way to go from here to getting it running better. ive been rooted before and tried different custom roms, so im not against it, if thats the way to go. if it is, what custom rom is best? if there isnt a 'best' which would you recommend i try? i guess a 4.2.2 rom will probly be suggested. what are the major differences in the 2?
thanks for any opinions and advice.
If it is running slow, you could always use an app like is monitor to see if an app has gone rogue and is using up lots of ram or CPU. I doubt its tsf, as I used that for a very long time on mine without issues.

Hey there!
First off, for the lagging problem, I'm positive that your phone probably needs to be cleaned up. The stock JB that you currently have is supposed to be the most stable one there is.
For cleaning up, just get SD Maid, and clean up using all the options available.
WAIT! Can I get one thing straight? You did do a factory reset before upgrading to JB 4.1.1 from ICS, right?
A LOT of problems sprout from this simple fact actually. A factory reset is mandatory when upgrading from one kernel and ROM to another, be it stock or not.
In Custom ROMs, we tend to always encourage full wipes before flashing one ROM over another unless we are only doing a minor, from let's say, Liquidsmooth v2.4 to v2.7. Then, only the cache and dalvik has to be wiped.
Yep. Hope this helped. If the answer to my above question is no (you didn't full wipe), the nI would just recommend you to use TiB, backup all your apps and data, then factory reset and then restore using TiB. That should help.
replying
the phone im talking about came from the manufacturer by verizon with 4.1.2 on it, so im not sure if it was upgraded that way.
if i have to factory reset, whats the vest way of saving game data so i dont have to start all over?
im currently not rooted. will root if its needed.
thanks for the previous info.
Hmmm. A sticky situation, TBH.
Maybe you can try rooting and then this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.sdm
But I haven't quite got experience working with RAZRs which came with 4.1.1 installed..
So try out the app after rooting, and if that doesnt help, factory reset. Backup your apps and their data using Titanium Backup which is available for rooted phones.
If even after that things are laggy, then i suggest getting Liquidsmooth or MoKee Rom. They are pretty fast and lagless.
Hello I have this phone for bout 2 years now had never any problems with it, Official rom never rooted.

TY in advance
Try to restart the phone, close apps running in background.
You can do a factory reset. But make sure to backup your data. A factory reset will delete anything on your device.
You can find this Option in your phone settings.

What phone are you using? AT&T?
Did you recently install any new apps that could be causing the issue?
Is your phone's internal storage full? Anything less than 1GB of free space can cause lagging, especially when accessing data from the storage.
Have you ever cleared your web browser history & cache (for all the browsers installed on the phone)?
I had a similar problem with a custom ROM a few weeks ago for the AT&T version of the One X+, clearing web browser caches and histories cleared it up. You might try that.
There are stable custom ROM's for this phone, you just have to look for them.
