Text lag

Has anyone noticed since rooting their TB that when trying to get into text msg app, it takes about 5 seconds to just open, typing is also super slow? Just started a few days ago, usually a reboot will fix it for a while then it comes back. My phone has the basic Root, no other roms flashed yet but the bloatware is moved over to my sd card.
I have found that this only happens when using a task killer. I havent killed anything in sevral days but this is the culprit, just reboot and id be willibg to bet this wont happen anymore. I the exact same problem, but not sure what i killed that caused this.

It's working ok now, weird, rebooted three times, maybe it was a none responding app that caused it. I uninstalled a few apps that I d/led last night, we'll see.

Words with Friends and CM9

So I'm throwing this out there as its kinda driving me crazy, though I kinda know what the answer will be.
I play words with friends have done for a few months now, 2 weeks ago I flashed my Samsung GS2 with CM9 build 01062012 thinking It wasn't going to be stable enough to run as a daily I was shocked at how smooth it was etc.
I've now been using it as a daily and will continue to use it, will just re-flash it when bugs get fixed etc.
Now back to WWF, so I installed this and played it, it seems every other go it freezes my phone, to the point only battery removal will solve it.
I emailed the dev for the game and they said bug fixes were coming, I've had 2 updates in a week and each time it solves it for about a day then goes back to freezing my phone.
The weird part of this is when it freezes I hold power down for 10 secs and it turns off I reboot and once back on, the battery would've lost like 15/20% charge, I had to do this 4 times within an hour the once and my battery went from 80% to 13% just cos of rebooting . Then even more weirdly after deciding not to play the game my phone's charge went from 13% to 20% over a half hour period
Has anyone encountered weird behaviors like this before?
I know that this is a testing ROM would this cause this issue?
Yeah man, I play that **** too and had the exact same problem. I just put it down to cm,9 being an alpha. Sorry I've got no fixes but your not going mad. Ha
I just play it on the iPad instead until the rom becomes more stable.

Oh man I thought it was me!
Well I'll wait until its more stable and then start playing it again, as I'd rather sacrifice the game and have ICS

Well I've read the reviews and some ppl have ICS, so they could have Galaxy nexus' or Nexus S', they weren't stating issues.
I think its down to CM9 myself, could be wrong tho.

MMS being displayed as slideshow

I've noticed a few people complaining about this but not in alarming numbers.
Is the majority ok with this? Or how are you guys getting around this? Different messenger apps? Do you guys just not get many picture messages?
From what I understand this is due to touchwiz and I can't imagine what Samsung was thinking when they thought people would enjoy this "feature".

You would be better off bumping one of the other threads. It is a know issue. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Samsung has been having this problem since the captivate. To fix it I just found a rom and threw aosp mms.apk over the stock one and it displays fine.

What rom are you using, mate? I'm sure stock rom LED works, and almost non-stock ROMs i've tried have LED working.
Just the stock rom mate. Seems to be a bit of a rarity for it not to work as not came across anyone else with same issue. Lucky white heather eh...
Not a deal breaker I can live without it, but if they was a solution I happily implement it.

Look through alot of threads on xda. There are alot of good suggestions on here. Some help some people and some help others. I myself have had this issue also. I've swapoed kernels, flashed back to stock, etc.etc. Right now i'm trying a free market app called fixr wifi fix and it seems to be working but only time will tell. If you try it and it helps just hit the thanks button.:thumbup:
