Ok if checked the forums and i haven't seen a question similiar so ill spit it out! If i unroot my x10 without timescape installed will my phone get damaged? will it void my warranty if i dont have timescape installed? I just want to know incase an accident happens
Rooting voids warrenty. The only way to delete timescape is by root. But deleting timescape wont hurt your phone at all. I always delete it. Never had a problem.

If you ever have to send it back to SE you can always use SEUS to go back to stock. (i.e. exactly as it comes out of the box) so there is no worries about rooting phone.
As for timescape...get rid to bad rubbish...dont know why SE put rubbish like that on the phone
Hi all,
I bought my neo v last week and it was brilliant for 4-5 days. But nowadays the phone response very slow. When I come out of any app the icons take time show up. Earlier it happened only when I came out of games like temple run. Now I've uninstalled it. Now even when I came out if messaging or camera, the icons take time to build.
Sometimes during a call incoming, it takes long time to show the contract details.
Should I do something to check if everything is fine with the phone. I really doubt it is the speed of a 1 ghz processor. Also the ram has only around 50 mb free even only music player is running.
I've installed avira, which I suspect could be the reason for this slowdown. Im unable to uninstall either.
Could someone please help me with these for a android new comer? Please let me know if u needed more details to help me out.

Avira could be the cause, is it installed from market?
Find it Play or the phone's manage application screen to uninstall.
If it is still that slow then try a master reset, anyway it is just 4-5 days' thing to lose.
use superchager v6

Thanks. Im thinking of the reset as the final option if nothing else works. Manage applications can't uninstall avira. It says uninstall faulted. Will try thru play and let you know soon.

wifi disconnects may be router's fault too, some funky power saving crap i know my router has setting to kick clients when no activity is on it
Im using go task manager in mobile. Let me see that could be the problem.

like what Gjole86 said that the router kicked you out with no activity i have that to and you dont need a task killer or manager anymore since android 2.3.3 and you`re welcome that why im a Regonized Contributor to help peeps
Yes I've now uninstalled needless talk and power managers. It's getting better. But still I've only around 75 mb ram free. Most of the used part is occupied by system services and the software installed by se lyk liveware manager and data monitor. Any suggestion to stop them from unless needed? Anything other than rooting the device?

If you want to stop the bloatwares, you really need to root. You can freeze them or uninstall them permanently, just make some back ups. Have you tried resetting it? I mean factory settings reset? You should try it. Dont install battery savers, task killers and antivirus. It may slow down your phone and eats up your battery. Its better to restart your phone daily to free ram and reset it. If you have done everything but it still becomes slow, contact your phone dealer. You just might have yourself a factory defect phone
like what other said, root your phone or better yet, use custom roms. those bloatware is eating your ram thats why your phone is sluggish. as pandemic said use v6 supercharger to handle the memory.
It is a primitive sort of advice but if u don't want to root your phone...then try auto memory manager and set a parameter to autokill background processes...the processes u don't want to be killed can be whitelisted.
And try some kind of startup manager to prevent unwanted apps from launching by their own...but even then some of them would initialize bcoz of other events...that's where auto memory manager comes to play.
But last advice...its really a very good idea to root your phone to gain full control...service centres really don't care if you are rooted or not unless you unlock the bootloader.
Edit: am not sure if startup managers require root or not...it would have been stated in the app description.

I checked with other person who s using the same mobile. His is comparatively better and games perform better than mine. I'll go for reset but can someone tell me how can I back up all my data. Should I download all the apps again if I reset? I'm really worried since I dont own a broadband but just downloading using mobile internet. Can we back up apps also?

Use MyBackup or ESfile explorer to backup your apps...there is a pile of apps in the play store.
Use Elixir2 or system panel lite for every detail of your phone.

Hey!
So around a week ago I installed 4.1.2. android on my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.
First of all, It has been released officially for Ace 2, but it worked good for only first 2 or 3 days. Now its a complete disaster. It runs smooth only until I open any kind of app. Im starting to think about reinstalling 2.3.6 back, but I really like the Jellybean. Maybe anyone here knows how to fix this problem?
For example, this morning when i took my phone in hand for first time today, I opened youtube and turned device horizontally. They alarm clock started to ring and It didnt even offer me to shut it off. When after like 3 minutes i managed to do it I went back to youtube and there I turned device back vertically and video just stayed horrizontally , freezed and just with sound. And couldnt even turn that off for like another 5 minutes. And this goes with most of the apps. Its really annoying.
Hope to see some solutions
Did you use greenify root app?
It hels you to hibernate apps when you are not using them.
Also try not to use memory hog apps..

Havent used any app for now.
Android was installed with official wirmfare with Odin3 v1.3.
And what is memory hog app , and what if my phone is not rooted?
A memory hog app is an app which constantly runs in the background and drains the memory..
For example crappy apps like Samsung chat and others..

Rooting will allow you to remove bloatware from your phone and hence speeding up your phone.

whats bloatware? sorry im kind of new to this stuff..
and I just found out that the youtube is the only thing that makes my phone freeze. when i open a video it just starts lagging and freezes the phone. everything else works fine. could it be some kind of update (youtube) problem?
and also... do I get some other advantages of rooting my phone too ?

Hi
I've been using bit torrent to download albums and paste them in to my Walkman player.
I do know that using p2p softwares can be harmful. However I scan my phone using the clean master app from the play store and the results are always "no harm found"
But for a strange reason my phone suddenly won't send or receive texts or calls. I have written another post asking for people help on that.
My question is could it be because of bit torrent and clean master can't detect it.
It is a coincidence that my phone stopped working properly after a few days of using bit torrent l. ( I have around 4gb of music on my phone that I've downloaded from bit torrent)
Thank you...

There is no such thing as viruses on android, 99% of anti~virus and security crap is usualy a placebo
Bittorrent is official bittorent so its safe
And the Z2 FW is a bit buggy, stuff can stop working so try factory resetting

Understood. I just reset my phone by using."back up and reset" in the settings menu. Nothing changed. As I have just read what you said I'm going to look into using Sony PC companion.
P.S is flashtool and Sony PC companion legit. Meaning will they mess up my phone or my computer with malware?
What's the easier and safest tool to use?
Thanks..
Haroon
Sony PC companion is official, it will download firmware through the app and install it to your phone. Flashtool isn't official but is trusted - although you do need to source and download the relevant firmware yourself to flash to the device (making it more difficult and maybe less secure than the official Sony software.)
Neither will install malware on your phone (just don't download it from a dodgy website).

Well just a side note, quite a few of the issues with the Z2 are caused by google because 4.4.2 isnt the most stable android release ever and neither it being bugless
Alot of wifi,data and system stability issues are caused by 4.4.2 android not sonys rendition (of course sony tried patching)

Yeah 4.4.2 is pretty bad. Google should make a new update!
One of the worst thing of the 4.4.2 update is definitely the fact you cant move your apps to your SD card, unless you flash your phone. Ive tried apps like app2sd and it wont work on 4.4.2. Its so limited in how you can spread and balance your data. I have a 128gb SD card and have trouble copying my music and videos from the phone to the SD card all the time.
Damn GOOGLE

Hi folks, recently I bought my ney g2 mini and of course the same day I rooted it to have full access to the device via λroot.apk. 2 days later my lock screen stopped working as I disabled via the lock settings, though I didn't. So I full reinstall the original firmware via my PC and the original LG TOOL+kdz ROM and after that u re-root the device. Some days later I had the exact same problem. So I did a second master format and I let the g2 mini unrooted and guess what. It works like a charm till now. Does anyone else rooted user had this bug? Is there another verified method to root the lg without any problems?? Thx!
Perhaps a root-enabled app or a virus is doing it.

Whell, after a few days with no root, i decided to give it a try and re-rooted my phone. Today, i found my lockscreen desabled.. again! I have no idea if it's a virus or some third-party apps with root accsess that may affect my lockscreen.. i post a video showing me changing the diferent types of locking but nothing happens.. Any ideas?
