Hello everyone,
At first I thought it was a bug from the official jb update, but after some search here it seems that most people dont have these problems so maybe it is fixable
1. I use swiftkey and I have to set it as default keyboard everytime I reboot
2. Admin privileges to kaspersky anti-theft app is also not being saved after reboot, have to give permission everysingle time
3. Some light 2D games (Stick Tennis is the one I tried) lags a lot because apparently they are not heavey enough to make the system switch to hardware GPU for render, if in developer options I check the box that says "Disable HW overlay" the game runs smoothly but the xperia home launcher and internet browsing doesnt.
If anyone has any info about these, please share.
Thank you
Hi.
Same problem on my XS. with swiftkey!
Just tested some 4.2.2 ROMs, some of 4.1.2 and stock JB (rooted and unrooted)... always the same problem...
After reboot the keyboard (and also lightflow) is reset...
I think one of the backup-apps caused that. I had used titanum, helium, mybackup root, the stock backup and restore... and restore from google... at diffrent times - always the same. On the realy fresh rom everythink is okay, after some updates and a few reboots its going bad.
But I cant solve it - anyone can help us?
A solution which does not solve it, but i get the right keyboard... if you have a rooted device just unistall the other keyboards and you get swiftkey for default.
Thx,
bluebat
Known bug. Backup those apps with titanium backup, uninstall them and then restore with titanium. You need root to do so

Well, I have/had these problems too. I use Swype keyboard and there were times when I had to set it as a default keyboard again because it switched to the original one. But this happened rarely. I also have Kaspersky, I also had some issues at first, when I installed it, I had to give it administrative permissions several times. But now these bugs seem fixed, I have not encountered any of them for a while and I still am on the .200 ROM.
If you want the graphics to be rendered by the GPU, go to Developer options and check "Force GPU rendering". It will also make use of the GPU while drawing menus, so you might see an overall improvement.

Just wanted to now witch system apps i can block using autostarts without stopping other apps doing their job. Im on jpm with voodoo lag fix enabled.
For better understanding on what i want to know here is an example:
On eclair i blocked gmail and calendar app from starting up and as a result i had to factory reset my phone. When i rebooted my phone i got so many force quit errors that i couldnt even browse to the autostart app and disable it.
Thanks in advance

I am using "Autostarts" since today... i would suggest, that only change one setting at a time to see, if
a. it works
b. the system still can be used
The app is very powerful, but you should know, what you are doing - i am still experimenting with certain settings
All the best,
ww
Thx for reply. And be really carefull,thats what i tried first but some things made my system crash after a few days when i downloaded a ne app what uses a service that the others didnt. Then i got kernel panic a few seconds after boot up (everytime) yso factory reset was needed.
Same is with google talk, u need that to be able to download things. I read it on xda, after factory reset again cause i would never had thought that talks got any thing to do with downloading

Well - i am still playing around with my settings... but for now, it works pretty good. It is very interesting to see, which apps will be called on certain events.
You can obtain control on the whole system, but every change regarding system and / or google apps can be dangerous indeed.
All the best,

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for taking the time to look at my situation. I'm a new user and have been experimenting, trying a few different ROMs, loved the feel of cyanogenmod7 (b36) but couldn't hack the poor battery life (approx 5 hours light mod use with radio 26.04.02.17). I went back to LeeDrOid (installed v2.0 this time but have previously used 1.51 and got 24 hours battery on moderate use with the same radio). Once back at LeeDrOiD 2.0 I have the following two relatively minor but annoying issues.
1) On all my other ROM flashes android has somehow been able to detect apps I have downloaded from the market and installs them automatically. I've now wiped and flashed v2.0 3 times and it won't find or restore the my (40 odd) apps. Is this a common issue with this build? Is there a specific app or process that is responsible for restoring these apps that I can tinker with?
2) I use ADWLauncher for my home. The system keeps forgetting that I want to use it as default. It often works for about 2 or 3 uses of the home key (eg either to bring up previews, or to return to home screen from an app) and then asks me which program (ie launcher, ADWLauncher EX, even quick desk which I installed on one of the re wipes to try and see if other apps handled the home default better). I've tried clearing from setting>applications manager, and have reflashed but the fault keeps happening. Is this a common problem with this build, or is there something I am missing [most likely scenario].
Thanks in advance for any help your are able to give. The android community is an amazing thing.
Cheers,
Mike.
I was having a very similar issue with the apps not restoring after flashing a new rom. I live in a country where there are no paid apps available.. so i've been using MarketAccess. What i found is that when i forget to open MarketAccess and emulate a US sim BEFORE launching the market for the first time after a flash, my apps wont download. But when i do launch MarketAccess before launching the market, then all my apps download. So i've made it a habit now to install MarketAccess first thing after a fresh install of a new rom.
I don't know if you live in a country with paid apps though so my point may be totally irrelevant lol
As for your second concern about adw launcher... im not too sure about that. Maybe you have a task killer installed? If so that may be interfering. Uninstall that and see if it helps. You shouldnt really ne using task killers anyway. But again you might not have one so this point may be irrelevant too lol
Thanks for responding.
I'm in australia so we have the full Market apps store here. I haven't heard of market access before, is that a standard app our one specific to your zone? This problem only seems to be for this version 2 rom, and not the other roms I have flashed. Scratching head.
With the launcher, I haven't got a task killer installed. I use astro or the system task manager. It's very puzzling, the default setting will sick for a few times usually, then ask me again. Capricious little beasts, these phones
I do use juice defender though, do you think that could be cutting off the default sections while the system is in use? I'll give that a shot.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Mate, you were on the right track. It was juice defender that was killing the home screen default. I sorted it out in the configure apps section by making it visible. Stupidly, I hadn't thought of jd as a task killer. Thanks for your help.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Glad you sorted that out.
I noticed that I've had several apps "uninstall" themselves.. all of them were on the SD card.
Seems to be a common bug among quite a few GB builds when I checked it out on Google.
Is there a way to disable "apps to sd"? I'm on the stock ROM, rooted.
I believe it would take a modified a2sd.sh script but I don't yet have the programming experience to feel comfortable altering it myself (I'm still on stock recovery so a nandroid backup isn't an option)
Should probably be a simple fix, any of you Dev's willing to chime in?
Also, anyone else noticed this happening to them?
i've seen that bug a few times, it's quite annoying, some how the OS just loses the installed info about the apps, and you have to re-install them for it to know it's still there
I am seeing this even on apps saved internally.

Just thought I should also point out this is not a hardware issue, it has happened to me on all my previous 3 android phones
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Everytime I install an app, I simply make sure I "move to phone" if it gets installed on the SD card
No problems since (yet..)
Are you using an aftermarket launcher or stock launcher? In any event not sure if it matters. I'm running CM7 alpha with Launcher Pro. It randomly happens to me, but I hold the back button on CM7 to force close Launcher Pro, and when it relaunches the apps are fully present. Try killing and restarting your launcher.
I've seen this as well - currently running Bombaridier 3.5 w/ Bullet...I've had this happen on different versions of the ROM, and it's kinda like AllGamer points out: app info seems to be lost, somehow - in my observation, after a reboot. However, if you go to manage your Applications, they'll still show as installed (well, mine do anyhow.) And yeah, reinstalling is no issue.
Restart the launcher? I will have to see about that - I'm running Go Launcher Ex on Bombaridier 3.5; if I see this (hopefully not) again, I will try that to see what happens. Thanks for the tip!
Hi Rio
First of all, thanks for your great job.. and because I still cannot post at development section, so I create this topic.
I just want share my experience after use it for couple hours.
1. I tried for HD games, and it work smoothly.. nice job dude.
2. Nice appearance.
3. But I got big problem, i always find it become very lagging if I run for the first time (sometimes it will be force close) but after reboot, this issue will be gone. Am I the only one who got this issue?
I will use for more days, and I will comeback with some feedback.
Thanks anyway man..

Hello dude.
I'm also facing this problem. what i'm doing is kill all running program with Advance Task Killer or Advanced Task Manager or use the built in task manager. Mostly its work before play the game.
Maybe lag caused by full memory.
CMIMW.
I'm also facing this problem too, and the ways I found to solve it were the same of climbatiz3. I try to free memory using the built-in Task killer application. If it still lagging, reboot. Sometimes happens to freeze my touchscreen too. In that case I just force reboot.
Same problem with me...huft..
Mana nih om rio? Kasi solusi dong...

Try these :
1. Do not restore any apps using TB.
2. In CWM do a Fix Permission.
If you need to restore it back....wipe all system..cache..data folder except ur ext. SD card where you keep this ROM.
Don't forget to do the usual wipe......format cache etc n delvik....
Let us know.....
Sent from my GT-I8150
or maybe can try this method also.
1)restore using TB
2)un-supercharge by delete the script in \etc\initd\
3)flash adrenaline v3.0(not 3.1 , but if u have reboot loop,then flash v3.1)
then try again. cause i'm facing same problem with my w(bionic cow2). now it running very very smooth.
try and let the forum know.

I did all the format and wipe .... but still getting some FC after installed some new apps ....... now back to 1st Gen. again
There are lags everytime I try multitask with my music running. The delayed music was exttreeemeeeelylyyyyyy annoyyyyying
Considering to return to gen 1
I flash the blacknote 2nd Gen, no problem encounter.
perharps is because I re-supercharge it?
cause default SUPER UL 125mb free ram is too high, many apps cannot run at background. So you might face some apps always slow to active might due to killed by the LMK so they didn't run at background.
So I re-supercharge into multitasking 75mb free ram, and games and apps run smooth, and multitasking also better off. Everything goes smooth and can't wait for 3rd gen with latest kernel??
(better than sammy default 50mb?? haha)
Maybe it's since the JB upgrade, but my keyboard keeps resetting to the Default Samsung 3, from Swiftkey 3. Could also have been from installing the Swiftkey Flow beta.
Anyone else experience this, and what can I do to stop it.

I think if you go to the buglist at swiftkey.net you'll find you aren't alone. I'm using the Swiftkey Flow beta and this problem hasn't occurred...yet. You can turn of the Flow feature and it becomes a regular Swiftkey keyboard.
I use Smart Keyboard Pro off of the market and the same thing keeps happening to me. By that I mean I don't use swype and my settings keeps rolling back to the regular keyboard.

I've found that these problems can sometimes can be fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling the keyboard.
I did a factory reset and it still happened.

Could you describe how this is happening? Does it switch keyboards after you use a certain app, or does it just switch at random times? One thing you could try is to disable all other keyboards under applications. This way, the phone has to keep using your keyboard.
Happens for me after a reboot. Always goes back to Samsung keyboard. Once I change to SwiftKey, it stays that way until the next reboot. As others have said, seems like a bug between JB and SwiftKey 3 (without Flow beta)
It happens every time I restart and then it would happen randomly while using the phone. I thing Task Manager by Rythm Soft was killing Smart Keyboard but I got it on the ignore list now; and so far it seems limited to the restart. It's not possible to disable Swype or the Samsung Keyboard. They are greyed out on the list.
To the O.P. you should check any task managers to be sure Swype isn't being killed.

Same thing is happening to me. Always after a restart it falls back to the Samsung Keyboard.
If you guys are rooted make a back up of the Samsung keyboard then delete it. From system/app i know that worked on the early sprint JB leaks

Anyone try this, and what does it default to if you do remove the Samsung Keyboard? I have several inputs, WiiMote, PS3, etc. If I have to keep changing the default back to Swiftkey, then this option would get annoying.

This is a known bug with JB 4.1.x.....
Swiftkey has it mentioned in a bug list as well as Google in a bug list...
It has something to do with apps getting installed differently and storing app data differently with JB. When a phone reboots the storage location for that app's data is not mounted or available right away so the app can't load and therefore the phone switches to the default keyboard.
Happens with a few other apps like AT&T Vooicemail Viewer.
The work-around is to root the phone, backup the app with Titanium Backup, uninstall the app, then restore it without data. Then set the keyboard as default and it should stay that way after re-boots.
Good luck!

Might wait for Google or Swiftkey to fix the bug. If I restore without the data, then I lose all the words Swiftkey has learned.
This is really odd. A few weeks ago I downloaded the SwiftKey Flow Beta and this problem disappeared. That is, after a reboot my default keyboard would stay on SwiftKey Flow Beta. But yesterday SwiftKey released the official version 4 with Flow integrated. And now the problem is back - reboot makes Samsung Keyboard as default.
So what did the Beta do that was so special that it would stay after a reboot??

Same. Reboot causes the problem. Not a huge issue, but odd.

It's a change in the way Jellybean handles how Google Play apps are loaded during boot process, since they happen after the keyboard gets loaded, it reverts to default.

correct. since the play store installs apps in a location (on your JB device) that is not immediately scanned during the first part of boot up, thats why the stock keyboard is loaded. however, to fix this on my wife's unrooted/stock S3, i found the actual swiftkey apk then downloaded and installed it onto the phone. this placed the apps info in the correct storage location that is seen on boot up. i do not condone downloading apps you have not paid for however i did this for her as she and i have both paid for swiftkey on all our phones/tablets when it initially released on the play store. i dont have this swiftkey issue on my s3 as it is running a custom rom. cheers

Sorry if this was already covered...but I read a post at the Swiftkey site that the issue is with Paid apps on JB. Not all paid apps of course...but some paid apps like Swiftkey install to this special storage location that is not available soon enough during the boot process.
The 4.x Swiftkey beta was not a paid app so it worked...now that the beta is released it is a paid app and the Swiftkey 4.x release in Google Play has the issue again on JB just like 3.x did.
