[Q] CM9 Speed

Hey all,
First off - this is in no way a knock against all the self-sacrificing developers we have - they truly rock!
My question requires a little bit of background. I've been flashing since the days (lol) of Midnight Rom. Switched to Syndicate Frozen. I then started in the CM world with CM7 and liked it a lot. I felt it was quite snappy - although it had some quirks. Then when CM9 came out - I dived in. The quirky list of things about CM9 has really grown smaller and smaller. But one issue I feel remains. The speed. When I switched to CM9, I thought, well it's new, and it "wasn't even supposed to be able to fit on our phones to begin with..." but now I just don't know.... there has been a lot of streamlining and bug tweaks - I would have thought it should have smoothed out a bit.
My problem is, I just don't know when it's going to lag. I feel like sometimes it's fine, and other times it's just sitting there waiting and waiting to complete the action I've tapped. Other times it freezes and I have to long press the back key to kill the app.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if it's just me? Are we living in denial (lack of snappiness to have the latest OS ver), or is my phone saying I don't like what you've put in me!
FYI - I started with CM9 Alpha (something - can't remember) and I'm currently running Beta 3 (I usually like to wait a few days to see if there's any issues with the latest build b4 flashing). When I flash the latest builds, I only wipe cache part and dalvik cache. I also am sure each time to flash the recommended GAPPS. I have on occasion "fixed permissions" but that didn't do much.
I've been faithful about not flashing another kernel - although if that would help, any recommendations would be appreciated. Also, I was interested in trying the V6 Supercharger, but never did - and now it seems that no one is using that....
So is it just me, or is this everyone?

Start clean... wipe data... go into mounts and storage format /system. Then wipe dalvik. Flash the newest build and enjoy the slick ness... trust me fresh starts will save your life. Besides when installing new builds you can go into back up and restore. Backup your Google account and it will reinstall all your apps automatically.
The V6 supercharger will help as well.

How (step by step would be awesome) - does this save all app data too?

The page V6 SuperCharger for Beta2 doesn't look promising for the newer builds - it looks dead! Any tips on installing this script for the first time (and using Beta4)?
Thanks again!

Hit menu. Go to system settings go to back up and reset. Hit backup account. Choose your Google account. It doesn't notify you of when its done but 5-10 minutes should be ample. It doesn't save data... sorry. But if you need it you can use titanium backup and restore data for apps you absolutely need.
That is not the V6 you want. This is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18703418&postcount=5021
You run this is script manager. If you need a how to I'd be happy to write one. Or a visual if you honestly need one.

Ok that's what I did - I wasn't sure that it worked because it didn't say - "ok boss, we got your stuff backed up!" lol

That would be awesome, as I'm not sure which files I need to download, and what options to choose.
Thanks so much!!!

Give me a second to boot the laptop up... can't type as fast on my phone

You will want to run these after you install the new build.
Okay the files you want to download are the V6 Supercharger Update 9 RC8.2, and the Kick Ass Kernelizer RC8. Once these are downloaded (ignore the fact they are PDF's) Go ahead and download and install Script Manger from the market and open it up and find where you downloaded those files. Run the Kick Ass Kernelizer first. Tap it the dialog comes up and tap the Superuser icon to "run as root" then hit run. It will run through its terminal deal, when it asks for the I/O tweaks go ahead and say yes... i know it says bootloop potential but it hasnt happened to me so id say your good. Then it will give your options (K)ick ass , Chew G(u)m, and E(x)it. Type in K for it to install and to unistall you would type U, then hit enter... it will run through and when it says goodbye at the end at the top left you can hit close. Then go ahead and run the V6 Supercharger the same way. This one will give your scroll options type 1 hit enter. It will as for fix emissions type y hit enter, then it will ask to system integrate init.rc type y and hit enter. Then when it gets done it will ask if you want to use these custom values.. hit no... then i normally use the 7 option... but i suggests what options which is 5-7 for the epic since it has roughly 512mb of RAM. Then it will go through a terminal print again when it comes to the Superclean and Restart go ahead and choose yes. It will reboot and your all good to go. ... definetly making a copy of this... that was a long type .

NICE - I held of from doing the wiping of system and flashing from scratch - and the V6 made a HUGE difference!!!! Now every time I flash the latest Beta I'll need to run both of these scripts again, right?

From which screen or app do you do this? From my home screen I hit menu and could not find anything like "system settings" or "backup and rest". I think I've seen these before but i'll be damned if I can find them now.
Thanks

From the homescreen hit the soft button "menu", you should have:
Wallpaper
Manage apps
System Settings
or go to your app drawer and find "Settings"
that's where you'll see "backup & reset

[Mod] Boot into CWM without pressing any buttons!

I know lots of you are booting into recovery like crazy but in order to do so we've got to press and hold 3 buttons at once, its gonna wear out our buttons.......not anymore!
Go to the Play store and install QuickBoot. Once installed you can then make a shortcut on your desktop, or the dock if you choose, for recovery. Simply tapping the shortcut automatically powers off your phone and boots you directly into CWM recovery.

Well for me this is the longest I have stayed with a stock rom EVER lol. I dont want to flash any custom rom right now, im too lazy to a 4 in 1 reboot mod so this works just wonderful for the time being.

You could just always download rom manager and use it to boot into recovery..

Tasker is also very handy for this. Create a new task with a pop-up menu that has your reboot options- Recovery, Normal, Bootloader. On home screen- Add > Shortcut > Task Cut > select task. Edit icon if necessary. Done!

[Q] Apks for rebooting

Are there any apks for Note 2 that will give me a multichoice to either to reboot into recovery mode, download mode or simply reboot. I know that Chainfire's CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 has those options for S3 but is there anything similar for the Note 2?

Hi! I am using RomToolbox(Pro). It has a feature called "Rebooter", which does exactly that. It is possible to add an icon to the desktop. Probably the free version has this feature too.

Hi Martux76, thanx for your suggestion. I've installed RomToolbox and under the 'Rebooter' feature I couldn't find any options for Download mode. The other options are all there.
PS. I've found a free one called 'RebootMenu'. It features Reboot Device, Reboot Recovery, Reboot Download, Reboot Bootloader and Shutdown. It's very simple but it works.

I'm also facing same issues..is there any fix available?

Same issue in Yureka Plus
Screen locks for a few seconds while using and sets wallpaper to default wallpaper .. Cannot believe it is an official ROM. How can a company treat its customers like **** ..Powerful specs ,only to be destroyed by the worst software optimisation :crying:

screen getting off while using mobile
I'm also facing same issues..is there any fix available?

It is the common problem facing by most of the members in cm12.1, the solution is use the system theme rather than any other theme.

My yureka is on CM 12.1 and Android 5.1. Now when using the device it locks automatically and wall paper changes to default automatically. The screen locks freequently. I cant use the device or cant even set a wallpaper for sometime as it changes automatically.

Same problem with me
When I contacted customer care they stated me to do flashing. But still it has not gone away. After that they said that we will replace your device. I don't know whether they will give me a replaced 2nd hand mobile or a new one. Should I go for exxgange or is it a software problem that will fine in future.

Hey I have got a solution for this . Go to your device settings and then Privacy. Then go to privacy guard. There are three dots on upper right corner. CLICK ON THAT AND SELECT SHOW BUILT IN APPS. Now search for Google play services and hold on Google play services. Scroll downside and search for auto start and keep awake. Turn them off. But keep sure that (keep awake ) is enabled.
If it help you please thanks me.

If Finally your Problem is not solve then install Flash File of 12.1 from Below Link and again Flash then use without any issue.:-----

You guys could download the zip update in the official website and place it in the root folder. Once you restart the phone the update will be detected.

Already done that but no luck. it keeps me ERROR.

Is this update is for everyone or one who got bugs in pie update because i didn't get any update and also there was no bug in my previous pie update

For those who got fail, try update it through recovery. It works for me.
Download the zip file from the official website. Put it in external sd card. Boot to recovery mode and select "Apply update from external storage". Then, choose the zip file.
