Checkerboard browser froyo roms

Hi guys
Has anyone noticed that there is checkerboard rendering still happening on the latest custom roms. Some cooks note that its gone but I still see it. i.e the latest midnight rom based on bonsai has it but the quantum rom doesn't. I guess what Im curious about is what causes the rendering and how was it fixed? Any apk out there that can be installed to correct it? Note the cooks are great and im in no way dissing there work and dedication.

Wish I had an answer for you, I just found this thread because I did a search before asking the same question. I have the checkerboarding with Midnight 3.0, but I did not have it running Midnight 2.3 or Supernova.
this may just be a dumb theory, but it appears the checkerboarding is intentional, from the original app... its just the 'im still loading' screen. So If one rom performs faster, then you wont even see it, because it just loads the page... Devs??? I always wondered this, as at first people saw it as a glitch, but I think the problem is slow page loads, not what it displays instead of the page while loading. I could be totally wrong, but ive seen it on all Froyo roms (DK28 roms, only tried one of the others for a few hours, but it did it too..). I just saw a lot of people complaining about the 'glitch', just like all the 'lags', and Im not so sure these are glitches, as much as performance kinks needing to be ironed out, which no doubt would be easier with source code... please correct if I am mistaken, im very curious about this too, but if its 'normal', its just a way to tell how fast a rom is, given youre using say the same ultra high speed wifi I do... I know its not my internet, ive got 35/35 Fios....
glad I'm not the only one. Midnights rom seems pretty smooth other then the checkerboard on the browser. Seems to me someone has it fixed right and not all the cooks are following it.

naw... running smooth as ever for me. maybe something went wrong with your install
Have you tried a different kernel? Make sure your screen brightness isn't up all the way also, big battery killer.
CM7 nightly
I dont think this belongs in development. try Q/A they might be able to help you out.
I am also having issues mainly with you tube all the videos are jittery as hell and tried a different rom and issue was gone.

The difference. between 7.0.2 and 7.0.2.1 has been like night and day .....my batt. After taking off the charger today went from 100 to 95 in less that 10 seconds and I'm not getting fc's. But my display apps try and open than dissapear giving me no access...... I am running dual boot sooooo... that may be the cause but 7.0.2 worked great when I updated to it..... just didn't know if I was the only one
If its a well known major problem with development of a rom that is supposed to be stable than yes if no than Q/A with people whom aren't even rooted....... hmmmmm hard choice,I know it was for me....... please move this post if it's not in the right section...
You could check the threads for CM7 and see if it its a "development issue"...searching works from time to time
CM7 nightly
Just don't know why 7.0.2 to 7.0.2.1 would be so drastic.... understand nightlys but not stable

Opening a new thread about a ROM rather than posting in that ROM's thread, running it in a non standard configuration, AND having an attitude when someone points out a Q doesn't belong in dev? Yeah, I see no problem at all. /sarcasm
You guys are getting sarcasm and straight forward confused thanks for any input that actually pertained to my question... to others.... think before you speak or ask ... done... Please close this thread ASAP

um, the only thing they fixed from .2 to .2.1 was the camera.
To many people here post issues that aren't from a clean wipe.
No issues, move along.
Thank you for your reply..... as stated before...done

Please remove this thread. We don't need the negativity. There are too many people spending they're own time to make CM7 what it is.

Why, so people can go on downloading a supposed "stable" release only to find out it wasn't so "stable" to begin with?
I LOVE the CM crew and all they do for the scene, but I had a very terrible experience with 7.0.0 on the DINC. First it was jittery video (which I lived with for over a week) and then all my installed apps just suddenly quit working.

A "stable" ROM should never require an end user to try a different kernel.
Anyway, I ended up back on OMGB and couldn't be happier. The only FC I can find is due to installed software (Astro SMB Module).
I love using CM7 ... bugs or not please save your ignorance.morrisdan

Just because someone posts something in Q&A doesn't mean they aren't rooted. Your attitude sucks man. My personal opinion would be to reflash and wipe I have been running the latest stable release for as long as its been out and been updating to the latest version asap and have had zero problems other than those cause by user error. Perhaps you did something. Gotta release 9/10 problems are user generated.

Dude you should always try different kernals with roms. You must be new. It is stable I've had zero problems. As stated previously 9/10s of problems are user error and with the ignorance you are displaying I'm gonna say you did something. Just a tip when you wipe you should multiple times becayse 3.X wipes like a dirty person.

Don't let my post count fool you. I've been around since the beginning with the G1. Final, Stable, these words suggest newbie usage. Final builds should come with a final kernel. Unless you're a dev, tester, or need something specific for a certain application then you shouldn't need to kernel hack.

I understand how memory wipes work, so I don't believe the multiple wipe requirement. However, if it is an issue with ClockworkMod 3.x then I do apologize for any nay say here against CM. However, that doesn't really explain why 7.0.2 and 7.0.2.1 came out so soon after 7.0.0, and I wasn't the only one with video troubles in 7.0.0.

Synergy Questions

Hey so I just recently started rooting and have experimented with a few ROMs and I really like Synergy a lot, but it has a lot to fix and I'm not understanding something. I see all over the place about Synergy nightlies but I don't see where I can get them? All I see is the download link from 7/17. I see the changelog that states that the locations settings issues were fixed on 7/19, but how do I get this? I see everyone talking about how great it is, and I agree but after a couple minutes it force closes every couple minutes and it unusable. What am I missing? Thanks
I couldn't tell you why the nightlies aren't posted BUT you may find something in the Synergy rom thread on page 204. I had the same question awhile back but then I stumbled onto that post. I haven't used the rom in weeks so idk about issues/solutions
You can find the ILLEGAL as HELL Synergy nightlies, which no novice user should be considering anyways, at infectedrom.com.

[Q] Samsung Epic 4g Cyanogen?

I just rooted my phone today and now no idea what I am doing. I checked out the Cyanogen ROM and would like to get it on my phone, however I do not know where to get it or where to begin with this. I checked out a lot of the forums here to find a answer and google and was unsuccessful. I come to you for assistance in learning this process, in hopes to understand, learn and figure all this out!
My questions are : How do you install Roms? What is Rom Manager for and how do I get it working with my phone CORRECTLY? What else do I need to install and get on my phone to fiddle with Roms or any other cool stuff in the future?
I want to be able to have my phone setup to ultimately do anything that a rooted phone can do. Please help!
Ok...well..if you haven't already, hit the DEV section two doors down. Also one of the best pieces of advice I can give is to search out " qbking77" in there and on youtube. He is the hands down "King" at how to vids for not only this phone but many others. Just add "Epic4g" to any search with his handle and you're on your way!...ENJOY and see you on the darkside!!
ALL HAIL THE QBKING!!
well i figured out how to change the ROM's! i am curious what some good ROM's are. I tried out CM7 and i would rather not use it because of the nature of the no 4g and other things that dont work on it. If anyone knows of any good ones with a cool UI please let me know!
and yes i checked out qbking77 and hes is AMAZING!! his videos helped me figure out how to change the roms!
Syndicate frozen rom 1.2 with genocide 2.0 kernel. Flash the rom then the kernel.
All ROMs are good and all have different features. If you make a specific list of what you want maybe someone can help you. Otherwise go into Development and read the OP on each of the ROMs for what features they have. When you find one you like, then read the entire thread to see what kind of problems you can expect.
If u want clean stable rom go with bonsai 4.0.1 with the aio mod, if you would like it just let ne know on this thread and ill give u a link for it and a link for the specific all in one mod, it is a froyo rom but it is stable and mu favorite rom as I never have issues with it

Cm7 is da bomb diggity!
Runner up is miui!
Both are in alpha and beta states [near perfect but cool enough to be daily drivers]
Run an acs if you're not ready to go off the chains!
I prefered stock just cause it runs hardcored but if you run it make sure you stay as close to stock as possible and just get updated kernels to stay afloat til you're really ready to backup and try others!
Flash On!

Install honeycomb fusion port from shane and you'll get the sprint hotspot hack backed in, and for the 4 tab lock that's always been an issue sorry

thx for info got everything working now! other then the 4 tab lock screen =( lol
SFR 1.2 with Genocide 2.0 is good I used it for awhile until the 10/22 release of CM7 which I'm now using. I don't have 4g in my area so no loss there for me. Everything else I use my device for it works great with so I've not needed to go back to SFR.
would there be any specific reason why the battery seems to drain super fast with SRF 1.2 / Nuberl kernal?
Could be the kernel or some specific setting related to it. I'm not familiar with each kernel. So I'm going to make some guesses and say perhaps O/C overvolting, CPU governor not optimal choice, can't think of anything else from the kernel. If you switched ROMs you are probably going to want to fully charge and then boot into recovery and delete the battery stats or use battery calibrator (by marosige is the one I installed) to do it when the battery reaches 100%.

Any bugs in the stock CappyGlide ICS ROM?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841502
Similar to the other thread where you post the bugs in the ICS leak, are there any in the stock ROM that was just posted today? I'm very interested, but I don't wanna go too far if it's riddled with issues.
I have gathered that the keyboard isn't backlit, but is there anything else that isn't functioning properly?
I think the CWMR ROM posted is just a repack of the same ROM, so any bugs present in the original leaked ROM would be present. Cant speak for everyone but other than the keyboard backlight, ICS is running great for me. I had a battery drain issue but it appears to have resolved itself.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but what came out today is the same ROM, just in a different format. Be patient, people are working on improving it, and the official version should come out soon as well. CM9 or 10 isn't in the too distant future as well, I'm guessing we'll have it by Thanksgiving.
I gave up using it, because I had constant crashes (not actual crashes, the system was still running, ie Pandora kept playing but the UI stopped responding) and I got molasses slow wifi. Most people have reported no wifi issues, however.
OK, that's quite alright. Thanks for the reply.

The thread i posted today is the exact same as the original post about the stock ICS, i just made this one flashable. Also i havent had any problems with it other than the backlit keyboard. Im making a debloated one ATM so you can look foward to that with a couple of tweaks.
