I have similar problem but no need pull batery, just a reboot and it will fast again.

Try running a cache cleaner. I have noticed some programs doing that and I run cachecleanerng and it seems to fix it.

Can't reboot, its pretty much completely unresponsive.
As for the cache cleaner, doesn't do anything even after full wipe and fresh app install.

Simply put Google will ignore any bug reports of chrome on "unofficial" android releases such as ICS on desire Z, and cuz its not for gb, they wouldn't support the G2/DZ are all, so support inquiries are basically ignored.

I have tested Chrome on my Mimicry 1.4.0, based on ICS 4.0.4.
Chrome didn't run fully functional e.g. Fn key didn't work...

Wasn't working right for me either. Since it really isn't working for anyone which browser do people prefer instead?

CM9 Beta0 browser question

I know this beta and all ....just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing choppy browsing. Like when the page loads completely and you scroll to a section and its blurred....you need to wait for it to render.

Are you running Any undervolt? And if so how much and that means your running custom kernel so what's your I/0 scheduler and governor? Only answer if your running Custom Kernel. What browser there's a lot of things that can affect to that situation

Try Dolphin MINI much faster and simpler than HD
I've been having that same prob on stock browser as well as boat and chrome. Clean flash, all stock.

Ok did a clean install and no change. I probably should have just waited till there is a release candidate instead of posting this.

I did. Its the same results. Its not really a big issue. I'm sure the devs are aware it since we are still in beta.

Not if it only occurs for a few. Check the bug tracker. If you don't see it then you may want to add it as well as a logcat of when it happens.
I experience this same issue on 3 different kernels. The page is stays blurred...sometimes for 30 seconds until it renders. This is the main issue which has made me stay away from cm9 recently. Some people have it, some dont. I have tried Dolphin mini with better results, but still bad to some degree.
I did a clean install of beta1 and its still there. Idk maybe I will try flashing back to stock and then flash beta1 and seen what happens

[Q] sandvold ics 0.16.1

Hi,
is it necessary to do a full wipe before upgrading to the latest sandvold even if i have a previous release?
in the aroma installer which a2sd/tweaks do you choose for better perfomances?
Thanks
Since there is no answer, I tried this myself.
Had 0.15.0.1 installed and working well, and did an install of 0.16.1 over the top.
All seems to be working, getting a couple freezes (not enough to worry about though), which I didn't have on 0.15.1, but it could just be bugs, or could be I'm doing something I wasn't on the previous version.
Using it for daily, pretty happy at the moment.
And I left the top a2sd selected, not sure if it would like me changing it after I already had apps moved with the one script.
Thank you for the answer

Just as an FYI, I went back to 15.0.1 yesterday, I was getting some weird stuff happening, a fair few crashes, and some weird screen flickering. Might stick at 15.0.1 for awhile, see how it goes.
I'd avoid 0.16.1 for now. Stick to 0.15 as it seems to be more stable.
I was using 0.16.1 really buggy I also came from 0.15.1 I'm now
Using nikez 1.0.1b2 it is a much more stable from than both of them. I have also installed Google now thanks mikey6 works perfectly

Camera Glitch?

My friend has a Droid Incredible 2, when she launches the camera app she gets multiple colors on the screen. Same result on Sense 3.6 leak and UKB Evolution Sense 4 ROM. Pictures come out just fine and even screenshots, it's just when shes trying to see what shes taking a picture of. Any help would be greatly appreciated,
First question would be what is her root method? Second, has she tried a stock Rom like bonestock?

She used the HTC Unlock method, and the Sense 3.6 was a Bonestock ROM I believe

Did she pull out the boot.img before flashing? Htc unlock has its hiccups and things can't be flashed the same.

Yep, I helped her flash everything so I know it was done right, but with both ROMs is what I don't get. Could it be a hardware issue?
Yeah, maybe the ROM or root isn't sitting right. Have you tried wiping the cache(s) or re-installing/downloading the ROM's? If those aren't the case then try and OEM lock the phone and re-root it again. If that doesn't work, then the camera might be funky.
Gonna see if that works, hopefully it does haha

A 3.6 ROM isn't going to be stock.
Have her try Nitsuj's StockM ROM.

Is there a settings that is on that is causing this? If not it could be a hardware issue.
I think one way of telling for sure is to get rid of the HTC unlock and fully root to see if it has to do with how the phone is handling the flashing of the ROM's. If it still occurs, then I would guess hardware.
I'm gonna see if running the RUU will the problem. That way I know if its a hardware issue or software

Auto Brightness does not work.
I don't listen to music on my cellphone.
Well since play music has to download the music from the server I'm assuming when the connection is bad is going to lag

Ahh that's a pretty big bug then
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
but compared to any "newer" rom this is soooooo much smoother and faster. unbelievable. Will stay with it.
My phone keeps restarting with this rom, any ideas as to why?
Otherwise it's working extremely well.
Edit: Did a fix permissions with ROM manager, that might help.
Didn't get a random reboot...
This is probably a security fix
The last stable was in June I think and no updates for that have come out.
9nly wifi doesnt work.
Any solutions for this?

YouTube v5 update - landscape issues

Seems like a samsung problem, just wondering if anyone on xda has been able to find a fix...
with the new youtube update (v5), there is no longer a time bar on landscape so you can fast forward/rewind a video.. and there's also no way to go back to portrait mode since that whole bottom area is missing (have to minimize the video, and then click back in... )
the app has ad 3-4 updates since its release and the problem is still there. been using v4 as the app is pretty unusable at this point. seems to be an issue with all samsung phones. i really love the new design but it's too bad that there's this huge glaring bug.
Are you talking about the mobile app? Because on my s3 it runs flawless and all the buttons work just fine...your issues are odd to say the least

Same Problem
His issue is not odd.This issue happens on all Galaxy devices with 4.1.2 JB android version.So if you have 4.2 or even 4.0 just shut up!

not only s3
I have the same problem on samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100 jb 4.1.2
No custom rom.
No time line in landscape. I am amazed.
Take care

I think my problem was due to me having the Rogers stock version of 4.1.2 installed, when I changed to the AT&T Stock Rom it was fixed, now it's working flawlessly
And this may be your problem since you are on a i747M Rom Jamolah
