Right Im running the LeeDrOiD V2.4.1 rom, first time with a custom rom.
Everytime I download and instal something the phone almost grinds to a halt and its impossible to use it while its installing the new app.
Is this got to do with the rom or is it because my etx3 partition 750mb?
Advice please
Thanks in advance.

Use starbust rom it is fast and stable and gives you internal memory of upto 2GB
Maybe I want to use Leedroid
Mine was doing that as well. I was previously using oxygen which was fast, but Leedroid 2.4 gave me unbareable lag at times. I have now switched to Lee's new gingerbread 3.0.2 rom and have found it so much quicker. May be worth a try?

I am planning to go to his gingerbread one but not until its been out their and tested longer.
any news when will the htc gb will be released?
Why dont you test it yourself and leave feedback instead of leeching
Kind of fixed the problem, all I did was switch the phone on and off :S
Hi,
I've purchased a a Samsung Galaxy 551 (I5510) (Middle east region) about a year ago and i was running android 2.2 fine for a while. When the Gingerbread 2.3 update came out i tried installing a European ROM because the ME ROMs weren't updated, it worked fine but had a weird glitch that if the screen was off (phone still working) for a while it would be very dark when turned on afterwards, it looked like this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwll8ZfgaD0
P.S. I didn't make the video, just linking it because its the same issue
it would randomly work again after a couple of lock-screen off-unlock cycles, then happen again randomly when it's off
I tried a number of GB ROMs (mostly 2.3.4) but to no avail, then finally the latest EU ROMs (I5510XWKPJ) fixed the problem, nowhere to be seen anymore.
After that i tried installing Cyanogen mod for the phone and the problem came back with different degrees:
1. Cyanogen 7 - normal boot, screen gets dark after being off for a while.
2. Cyanogen 9,10 - show Samsung logo at start, screen gets dark as soon as the cyanogen logo appears and continues to be
Any help on what would be causing that especially on the newer CM builds? and why it doesn't happen at all in (I5510XWKPJ)
Thanks in advance,
use stock gb rom XEO-KPG from here...u find no bug in it....install as one pakage through odin...
http://galaxy551.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/new-stock-rom-xeo-kpg/
I will give it a try, though i have to clarify and say that on the current stock rom that i'm using (I5510XWKPJ) the problem doesn't happen. It only happens after i flash Cyanogenmod (any version) and persists till i reflash the Stock rom then it disappears again.
EDIT: Forgot to add that this isn't a CM specific bug as it happened also when i tried other roms too (Arkas, Miui,...)
You cannot say that this is a bug bcaz no other mamber of galaxy 551 and even me also not have this kind of problem....
So I think its problem of ur phone...

No change after installing (XEO-KPG) stock rom, the rom itself works fine with no problems, same as the (XWKPJ) I've been using. but as soon as i install CM the bug rears it's ugly head.

The reason i think it's a bug because it happens across lots of custom roms (which rules a rom being the cause) and it never happens when using the 2.3.6 stock roms. And on the custom roms it only happens after the screen has been off for a while, if i set the screen to never turn off for instance it never happens, but that butchers battery life.
IMO it might be a display driver issue, but since i have no experience with it i came here to get some help
Bump, any help would be appreciated.
Hi Everyone,
Long time listener, first time caller.
Over the last couple of months, I have tried virtually every ROM I can get my hands on for my DHD, and I always do a full wipe (format) of /system, /data, /cache, Dalvik, and .android_secure before install.
The only ICS ROM I can get working fully is Blackout, but it is Sense 3.6.
I have tried Viper, and *really* like it, but Bluetooth is broken (in 1.2.0, .1, .2, and .3)
That seems to be the case for me with Sense 4 ROMs (lite or full); if Bluetooth works, then WiFi is broken. If WiFi works, then Bluetooth is broken.
ROMs I've tried (latest):
Viper
Miui
Jellytime
ARHD
Blackout (S3.6, which is where I'm at b/c it works)
IceCold
IceSense
CosmicSandwich
Sabsa
codefireX
Kernels I've tried (various releases up to latest):
Beastmode
KangBang
Virtuous
So, I'd like to know if there is such a thing as a fully-working ICS/JB ROM with Sense 4? I cant seem to find one. W/o Bluetooth and WiFi, nothing can be considered a "daily driver", imo... especially w/o Bluetooth, if you know what I mean.
Thanks!
I'm baffled; all of those ROMs should have both BT and wifi fully working. What's your recovery and version?
EDIT: and what's your radio?

Same here, bluetooth is one of the few things that ALWAYS work (except for 4.2.1, but that's expected).
Are you wipping between flashes ?
Thanks for the replies, guys.
As I outlined above, yes, I am fully wiping b/t ROM installs - even restores - please see my method in first post.
I am using ClockworkMod Recovery (HBoot for booting) and have paid for ROM Manager, which entitles me to further updates to CWM than what is available on Play. I currently have 5.8.1.5 installed (CWM Touch).
The radio varies from ROM to ROM it seems, and I should have documented which version in each ROM, but right now, in Blackout, it is reporting 12.56.60.25P_26.10.04.03_M. <--- That number stays consistent, afaik, but the first letter will change (U and T, iirc).
When I say that Bluetooth doesnt work, specifically what happens is that it either doesnt pair with any device, or if it does pair, no sound will be transmitted or the pairing will only last for a second, maybe two seconds at most.

The radio shouldn't be changing with each ROM unless you change it. But with that said, nothing seems out of the ordinary. You could try reflashing your radio manually? Other than that I'm out of ideas.

I dont know much about that, but with that said, I just re-flashed Viper 1.2.3 and my radio now reads:
12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M, which is different than it was above with Blackout.
I have not tried re-flashing my radio manually. I wouldnt know which one would give me a better chance of success...

Once I flash a new ROM, the kernel and the radio are the same I had or the new ROM comes with its own kernel and radio?
Thanks in advance
roms do not come with radios tho they do have their own kernels. Radios are region based not rom based so there is no rom specific radio just what works best in your area.

Thanks for the explanation. So, if I bought my mobile in Spain, the radio is different if I had bought, for example in France?
depends on how close they are to each other whether same service is used in Spain as in France or if they are totally two different service. I would Google the carrier you use then see what radio they shipped with. Even in the radio thread you may find an answer to which radio is good for you in the area your at.

Hey guys, I try to do my research before posting (this is my first post) but I am stuck on this one.
I have:
PrimoU
Llior's CM9 Rom
Titanium Kiss kernel (ICS)
on Koodo (Canadian Provider)
Problem:
I was running the latest Hellboy kernel, but noticed I had better GPS signal with KISS, so I flashed back to KISS to see if It improved the GPS. It did, but now I have no service! I tried restoring to my last Nandroid, but still have the same problem.
WiFi works, but I have no cellular network connection. This is my daily use device so I would love to get some help on this one if anyone has some ideas. For now I am stuck texting on my old optimus one.
Confused!
Thanks in advance!

Well, like it's on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757323 for CM9, DONT FLASH THE BOOT.IMG INSIDE THE ZIP, and later, use Maxwen... - and that's a http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967
Also, on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687, it is almost in the first row: IMPORTANT for CM users
If you want to use CM or a CM based ROM choose the correct kernel! CM9 needs a different ramdisk."
On DL web page: http://www.mediafire.com/?lo2ctaplonbdh you'll see a lot of kernels for CM9 - it's not always the latest on that will work with your phone. Try them...
Just courious - why are you on CM9?
I made sure not to flash the boot.img from inside the zip and always ensured I used a CM9 kernel which I flashed before installing a rom. I ran CM9 with the KISS kernel originally as it was what was recommended at the time. Upgraded to HELLBOY to try out new kernel features but reverted to see if the GPS worked any differently. (Tangent: It SEEMED to be better with KISS, but i could be wrong...)
I like CM9 for the stability and less glitchy video/pano modes, which I use often.
I have since gone back to square one.
Tried CM10 with CM10 hellboy. No signal
Tried CM9 with CM9 hellboy. No Signal.
I'm at a loss as to what could be the problem...

I don't know to much about other carriers, but does your phone require a sim?
Yes. It requires a sim.
Tried the sim in my old p500. Sim card works.
Power off the phone and remove the sim for some time(10~15mins).
It always works for me
Or,there may be a problem in the sim slot.

Thanks. Tried that, but no luck.
There is no way I could have messed with the radio or baseband by flashing a kernel, is there?

One more thing that you can try:
- flash stock rom
If you don't have signal with stock rom, might be hardware failure. If you still have warranty, just go and replace it...
Hi,
The apps that force close are Black**** alpha, Apto*** and Tunein radio pro.
They all used to work (except for Apto*** which I installed recently) before rooting my phone and flashing a new rom.
I can still use them but I have to click very quickly on something to load in Apto*** for example an app or a picture, or click very quickly the live chart or something like that in Tunein radio pro, or browse quickly in Black****, then if I use them for a few moments they'll close again or the app will restart itself.
I tried reinstalling Tunein radio pro and black**** (and clearing their data) with no luck. I also tried fixing the permissions in CMW when the problem only happened with Tunein radio pro but it didn't work.
Is there a way to fix that or to troubleshoot it? (I recently heard about logcat but I never used it)
Thanks.

What rom were you using when the apps worked? What rom were you using when they FC?

I was using the original ICS 4.0.4 when all was working fine. And now I am using Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 (latest stable one).
Since you're already running CM10.1, you might want to try the latest Avatar ROM which is also based on CM10.1 to see if that helps.
Personally, I am running Avatar ROM with Wind 2.6 kernel and haven't had any issues.

But I really like the stock android look of CM and I don't want to replace it by the Avatar rom or any other rom plus I am not a pro rom flasher. And this doesn't guarantee fixing my issues...
Avatar ROM looks exactly like CM10.1. You just need to choose the System theme.
It's your choice but I find Avatar to be faster and better on battery life than CM10.1.3.
