"How good is..." Trying to understand what I can expect from a lag improvement. Any major warnings on apps NOT to freeze (other than home/launcher)?
Really hoping this phone gets some Cyanogen love and/or a debloat of the stock ROM with some feature adds.

I froze music lilac and music widget but started having problems with bluetooth ad2p. Probably would be a good idea to start a new freeze list.

Agree on the new list. There are a bunch of posts out there right now.
You definitely see a good improvement from rooting and factory reset?
Is factory reset really needed?

I just did hard reset and reinstalled apps using titanium backup. It is a little bit faster but nothing revolutionary. The soft is definitely not optimized for this hardware. Reminds me of early days of Atrix 4G. As everyone thinks the dev support will be fairly limited, although there wont be any obsticles like with Atrix when the bootloader was locked for months. With Go Launcher setup took me 20 min to do it.

There are a lot of posts in there and I'm not sure which are valid and which are not. I'll post in that thread and ask the OP to update.

why would any of it be invalid?
I don't mean invalid per se, just that it's not clear which of the items might cause boot issues. It would be nice to have a list of which are bloat apps that can be uninstalled normally, which are bloat that must be uninstalled using Titanium Backup, which are more process oriented items that can still be uninstalled, and which are things someone definitely should not freeze or uninstall.
Really more of a corralling of what's already out there in an updated OP.

" Another Android first from Fahrbot Mobile
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of an account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain few apps, others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data."

Hi, im one of the developers. Please report back! Does it work well?
Ive triednit and its a great idea. Works for me. I like it because ibhave a toddler abdbibcan have an instance with just her apps without her getting into root apps.

Worked for me. i have not tried different ROMS bu
t i will later. This is a great idea..
Im the dev, let me know how it goes!
I marveled at the concept and gave it a try yesterday only to find myself boot looped and almost unable to recover from backup despite formatting data, system, dalvik, cache. I'm running juggernaught 4.1 with the supplied bullet kernel and the ics ultimate theme. I created a profile, named it. Created a second profile named it. Then I tried logging into the second profile and the looping began. Granted I was hasty at the idea of having 2 completely different roms on my device and switching between them at will, and didn't do much reading before I gave it a go. So far, I've only come across one other similar report, but have not done any further research into the why.
i just tried it worked perfectly ive never seen anything like this and it switches fast

Its just important to remember and keep an eye out for how much space you have in your phone/SD card.

Same issue has above. Running jugs 4.1 , supplied bullet kernal, and a sensation 3 port for theme. Named the current and named the second profile. Tried to switch and went through bootloops. So a nandroid back up fixed that problem. I want to try again. And for the dev of this app. If you made it compatible for having different roms on each, might be best app of the year if you got it to work with the sgs2

I've notice that the two reports of bootloop had bullet and jugs running.idk, maybe it has something to do with it.
From a galaxy better than yours.
I had dewizzed. And darkside kernel. And no problems. If you actually read the op. For the Dec, it states somewhere that if you don't have enough memory your phone will bootloop.

I have enough space i am sure of it but just to make sure what is an averge space that it needs. 1 gb or two?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
multiple roms?
for the sake of clarity and for the record, does this app allow for bootong into multiple rom installations? I've read either vague or conflicting information in blog reviews, here, and in the market reviews.
No same to
Rom.

I was reading it'll warn you if you are low on space. I think 1 Gabi is more than enough.

Hmm ill have to maybe try a different rom and report back if it doesnt work again. Maybe there is a systematic way of doing it on the 4.1 juggs. Id hate to get rid if it since it is the most stable one out

Jugs 4.1 seems to be the issue. Started running android zombie and switchme works like a charm now. First time you switch takes some time but after that Italy relatively fast. Gonna use a second profile for when battery is low and just need calls and texts available.

Used to be able to click on an address in text messages or in any browser and android would open it in MAPS or EARTH or NAVIGATION etc.
I recently installed AOKP milestone 6 for the first time, coming from Caulks 1.6. I'm not sure if it's an AOKP issue or if it's a 4.0.4 issue or what. I do know my buddy just lost this function on his G Nexus when he updated to Jelly Bean. That makes me think it's not a 4.0.4 issue because it worked normally for him on ICS. I definitely haven't taken any OTA updates so even if it was part of the Apple patent bullsh!t how would it be effecting me?
This is really important to me because I use this function multiple times a day.
Also, Maps takes forever to focus when I zoom in on a map. Any ideas on that?

Strings is just a way of using localized data contained to point to more data that it may contain. Its a SQL function, well, to me.
But I do not know if its a root or an app function within Android itself. Someone smarter than me may have that answer.
I'd try clearing cache and data for the particular app, removing, then reinstall. But it may be more severe of an issue if no app will work.
Did you recently flash a ROM?

I personally haven't used aokp, and I apologize for asking a question that you clearly answered in your op. Been a long day.
I'd check to see if anyone with your setup can recreate or maybe, possibly, you had a corrupted or failed partial file or a failed write during flash.

And to answer your question, I just searched "Android getlocality" which is geocoding. Which will point you to strings, which are generic.. We use it in my line of work. Environmental Engineering.. ( i'm not a tree hugger btw..)

Lol that's ok if you were. I just wondered bc I searched "address" and didn't find a thing related.
Ok just tested and it works in dolphin but not chrome. I just started using Chrome so that must not be a feature. As for sms I guess the it just doesn't work. I'll look into if I have a jelly bean sms app. I bet that's it.

And, to beat a dead horse deader, cause you touched on something I actually use, Andriod Chrome is using geocoding.. Odd that it isn't working for you. My maps in ICS have that function but it may still be broken in JB. Reference here.
So I'm not sure if the recent Jelly Bean update had anything to do with this but I can't seem to delete this particular message thread in my inbox !!! Anyone else experience this ???

How many texts are in it?
There are none in it. It's just my contacts name, then when you click on it to open, it opens a blank text message asking you to enter the recipient. Then when I try deleting it, my phone lags a bit and then I get an error message stating "unfortunately messaging has stopped". It is so frustrating!!!
Then the message thread appears in my inbox again

dmarco,
I have not seen this issue myself as described, but it's near impossible to really help beyond that without any idea as to what ROM is running (if not stock).
Are you able to backtrace any steps to a point where it didn't do this?
I'm on stock actually and unrooted still, I have no freaking clue what gives here. The worse part is that it's a female classmate of mine whose thread I can't delete and I'm a little uneasy that my wife might see that, think there is something going on between us (which there isn't) and shoot me while I'm sleeping!!! LoL

dmarco,
It sounds like some obscure corruption, or an update if one did occur on your phone didn't go as smoothly as it should have.
I wish I could offer more of an answer, but if a resolution is needed quickly before your significant other becomes a significant suspect in a murder case, you could try a factory reset after backing up what you can of pictures etc.

Thanks for your help, I truly do appreciate it. Perhaps I could clear data or force stop the messaging app and see if that helps. Will that cause any serious issues to arise later though. Because it warns not to do so, so I'm just wondering... would you suggest that?
P.S. I honestly don't think she would kill me, I'm more than convinced that she would shoot to wound only. lol...seriously

Try going through app settings and clearing data and cache for messaging. Other than that factory reset might be your only other option

The only way I've remedied something similar is to clear data and wipe cache/dalvik but without a custom recovery Iono how. Last ditch effort is if you have root you can delete the database file with ALL your texts in it. I had to do this. Because I had 20k texts and it froze whenever I tried to delete.

Hey all, I haven't seen this before and can't really find any info searching. I flashed CM10 and right away the phone said it had to be activated. I figured what the hell and tried to follow the prompts to activate it, it failed. I restored my nandroid backup to the stock TW rooted rom and again it said it needed to be activated, it activated just fine then.
What was that all about? Anyone know why that may have happened? I'm gonna try flashing CM10 again (or some other ROM) , but was wondering what I did wrong or what might have went wrong. It was a clean install of CM10...
Any thoughts?

Its possible that when you originally did the activation, it didn't ping the server in time from when you 'completed' activation. I've never heard of that issue, and if you were on 3G when doing it, it could have taken a couple minutes. So that's my go at the situation.
Ok so the fix for this issue was to flash a stock rom and follow the activation through with that, and then flash back to CM (reboot first)
If it still doesn't activate, or just to be safe, you can force activation through the dialer by using "##7...." I forget the rest >.<

Thanks for the replies. I did have very bad 3G signal at the time, maybe that could be it?.
The fix was to restore my backup and when it booted up, I was prompted to activate and it worked that time. This morning I did a clean install of CM10 again from the same .zip and it worked without issue.
This happened to me when I went to CM10 from CM10.1. Others have reported loss of service (need to reactive) in the CM10.1 thread. I restored to Touchwiz and all was good.
Yeah this happens sometime, when it does you just need to follow the activation through while using a stock rom
