I'm ok and in the position....
Let me know if I can testify for ya!
Take care!
Hey funman your rom looks great.
I can test for you. Let me know.
Bye.
Rom looks Great... Def willing to test this puppy!!
Hey your roms looks great to me.
So I volunteer...
Downloading now will report back!!!
Thanks
suggestions
I have got 31mb free ram on boot.
It is quite fast.
Suggestion
What to ADD:
New office2k7
New HTCtask manager 1.5
Audio manager
Java manager
New Sim manager
And Smartskey(it is one of the most useful application)
What to remove:
Customer Feedback
Error repoting
(I think these two are the most unuseful thing.)
Thanks, and there is no extended rom, and if you plan one then move it windows folder for G4 support.

Java manager (Left out as my Rom is made for the person that like min but useful, and this is not useful!!!)
New Sim manager (Took out as pointless, as with pimbackup on the phone, you dont need to save your contacts tot he SIMcard)
And Smartskey(it is one of the most useful application) I left it ou as it is not need!!! But you do have the button mapping, but i would not use it for boasting the CPU
New office2k7 Thought about this, and i did put itin there, but took it out again as the new one does not give much yet, as 2007 is not so widly used for the lose of rom space!!!
New HTCtask manager 1.5 Well did not know of this update, so i guess i could add it Do you know what is better?
Well I did not add the extended rom for that reason!!! So maybe will have to put the MMS stuff back in to the ROM
I think its bricked...
It finished flashing... went off... n now it wont start back up again....
Removed the battery and put it back in... its come on now... whew!! it sure gave me a scare at that point...
love the splash screens....
here we go with the set up...
Customising now... will update one its done...
its fast for sure...
Lotsa stuff i dont need... t zones... tmobile customisation...
CPU usage stays low between 1 - 3%. Will update battery drain once it settles...
One can get rid of error reporting and autoupdate... both are useless tools for a custom ROM
Have always had a problem with memory leak and suspect its because of tmail.exe... i use a lot of mail... outlook, windows live and sms put together would easily be more than 200 a day... this seems to be leaking as well... am already down to 25mb within an hour but that culd be because its updating my outlook mail... havent set up windows live yet...
more updates will follow in the morning... my wife's gonna lock the room door from inside anytime now...:-/

Ya the t-mobile stuff is just for this!!! If it gets lt out it will not have this!!! And t-zones is not in the rom!
Runs Great, But Phone Ringers Are Corrupted On My End Which Is No Biggy Man. T-Zones Dont Need To Be In There Cuz For Some Reason It No Longer Works Anymore. Might be the reason because T-Mobile Upgraded There New T-Zones For HTC Wing But Im Not Sure Just Know That When you Check Your Account It Wont let you. Another One you Should Add Musicplayer Today For Alittle Bonus And Add The new HTC Taskmanager Like Everyone Is Suggesting. Just So it Could Look Like A Stocked T-mobile Phone. I Love The Splash Screens. Really Fast But There Is A Battery Drain I Noticed But Might Be Because I have to let the battery drain first cuz I flashed. It Is At 50% And I dont have no push email, GPRS, Internet,Wifi, Or Bluetooth Running. I Would Hate To see when I Use Them It would Of Probably Already Been Dead! I Also havent Installed Any Program Either Everything Is Still Stocked. Also Recommend You Put Some Sort Of Battery Task On The Today Screen Like HTC HomePlug So You Can Check your Battery Life. But Pretty Much After That Runs Great Keep up The Good Job. I Will Still Monitor The Battery Situation More!
First view
Hey Funman!
Here it goes to my results...
Top 10 Good points of the Rom
I liked the way you cooked!.
Clean, simple and fast.
It really is and I still didn't have to overclock! Nice!
Got 43.40 of storage and 30.02 of program memory. Ok for me.
Good Customizations like text reduced and folders
Top 10 Bad points of the Rom
Customer feedback and Error reporting could be really removed as it really means nothing.
Phone settings seems to be not working properly. When I tried to change ring tone and clicked OK button, I got nothing. I still kept on that settings tab instead of back to today screen. I tried several times without luck. But I think is just a little thing coz you may get away from that just clicking on today icon and choose today itself.
Noticed duplicated task manager: programs\accessories\settings and in start\settings\system folder.

In an overall and as my first impression, I loved it! You did a very custom ROM without a lot of craps and just cooking basic and usefull apps. Good job.
I'll keep going little more now installing my apps. Let you know what happened after that!
Great day Funman!

OK
But Java manager is useful as sim manager, not at the time but may be required in future coz there will be programs that will require java and same for Sim manager. But this is your choice, im just trying to make your rom perfect and complete.
And for new X button go here
im using it and it is very good no bugs.
And office2k7 is also essential coz there are new format (for eg: docx) which will run on new word only.
And yes there are two shortcut of taskmanager(dotfred), one is in programs/accessories/settings and other in settings/system.
Thanks

Where you heck are you seeing t-zones? IT is not in the rom!!! I have this running on my phone right now!!!
-No T-Zones,
-No Ring tones as I said above (just place a ring tone on your card in my documnets)
-Do you have a extended rom installed, as this is your problem with the batt drain!
I think i need to pull the rom and look at a coup-le of things, cus you should not be seeing t-zones for one thing! And i might move the extention to windows folder then you dont have the batt drain problem!
p.s Task manger is there two times out of design!
update: Ok I see why you had the problems with the ring tone!!! Cus you have not put a MP3 in your my documnet folder!!! The OS has put the default ones in but there are not in the rom!!! It must be a reg key or some thing I will look into getting rid! Well i looked at the ringtoens and i think the 3 defaults must be hard coded as i have not been able to find any reg keys that go with them.

Oxios ? Ok i cant remeber what this is?
Please can you give me screen shots of T-zones then i can see where you are seeing it!
Okay last night i flashed my Wizard.
This weekend we have Whitsunday festival overhere.
So give me sometime to test your rom.
I will post my findings tommorrow.
hi there...am a big fan of the vox....but the problem that i face after say 2-3 days of continuous use is the memory leak. it has abt 22 mb free when i soft reset, but after this time, has less than 10 mb remaining. i shut down programs regularly, use the hibernate function on smart toolkit, and i use sk tools lite to use the memory free function. could anyone solve this problem? i read somewhere that a rom upgrade may solve this issue. tried the htc website, it says the rom upgrade is not suitable for my device. can someone help? someone like dr. martin gonzo or frauhottellmann? r u there? my device details are below
CE OS 5.2.1236
Radio 4.1.13.41_02.88.90
ril version 2.002
Pls tell me which ROM is the most stable, if i need to update any thing else too that is available on this forum/ I have photo contacts pro v 5.05 andfacade 1.4.10 running in the background.
Oh i forgot. I use smart toolkit too
The ROM is 5.2.1236.17741
I would prefer a light ROM, as I dont use word mobile. I have documents to go instead.

Try fireburned's Clean ROM or fraun's Lite ROM, both of them are super fast and super stable .
Backup - some doubts
thanx.....downloaded it, will it work and install with my vox as per the details ive mentioned above?
my second query....im not too particular abt my messages and stuff, and ive just synchronised the data on my mobile to outlook ( contacts, tasks and appointments )....is this enough or must i properly back up everything else? pls lemme know. as ive never flashed a rom before.
also, will flashing a new rom delete the stuff on my storage card?

Search for PIM backup, that is a software which back up all your PIM information to Storage card, or whatever folder you wish. No flashing will not delete anything from the storage card. But be sure that you are not using Encryption on the SD Card.
thats ok...i have sprite backup with my phone. will have to reinstall it though/
my question is....is a fullback up necessary or will an outlook sync be enough? when i reconnect after the flash, active sync will set up a partnership again right? will that delete all the outlook data stored on my comp or will my comp refill the pim data back on to my device? thats what i want to know.
also, will the new rom significantly alter my battery life? am a doctor, and it may not be possible for me to keep charging my mobile when i am on rounds and so on
one more doubt, addicted2xda. will flashing one of these custom roms solve the memory leak issue? its driving me crazy. cant go 3 days without doing a hard reset. and how much will teh free memory be with say, fireburned lite rom?
Well after a couple of days you will of course have less RAM available. You always have to close apps in the task manager and use some RAM-free-up app! I use the function of sktools lite!

yes boss...i use sk tools lite too. but it doesnt make too significant a difference, with the end result that after say 3-4 days, memory dips to less than 8 MB, and voila! my phone hangs!
am now trying out fireburned's lite rom, seems good for now. lets see! any further ideas to minimise the ram leak?
Use the taskmanager - as frauhottelman said already - to identify the processes that grow over time. You can use the built-in, just change the view to "process" and sort by memory. WMPlayer or Audiomanager are memory hogs from my experience.
For debugging you may also want to execute "devicehealth.exe". This will create a decent summary of memory consumption to the root (or card-root). You may have to search for it (in the forum or or the web). It is a tiny tool from the SDK afaik.

have been using fireburned's rom, seems pretty stable. however, after doing a sync with active sync, the memory which was say 17 mb, dips to 14 mb or less. any hibernate function or say, the task manager or even the sk tools function brings it back to only about 15 mb or a little marginally higher. the more times i use activesync, the same problem occurs. say i use it three times, the memory lands up around 12 mb, after all programs have been shut down. and after using the hibernate function on smart toolkit. any ideas? did a search and found that it s a process called gwes.exe which hogs memory mostly. but this is guess is a system process and cant be shut down i suppose. any suggestions? ur take on this, frauhottellmann?
Still problem not solved!
hmm..tried using the ram free function on sktools. seems to actually decrease the amount of ram available!!! and with each use of active sync, the available ram decreases sharply. my wife has an imate spl, and the amount of ram remains constant around 25MB even after 10 days....anyone have any ideas? have read somewhere that it is a problem peculiar to vox. the problem with decreasing ram is, after 3-4 days, the dialler starts malfunctioning. i am able to make out the calls ringing, but no way i can pick itup. max, i can cut the call. it registers as a missed call....any body with any ideas out there? any way to cut the ram leak?
one more doubt,,,the old sk tools had an optimize wizard. the latest one seems to be lacking this feature. is there anyway that the active sync filesystem can be made read-only ?
Pretty strange. Are you using any third party software that may be causing the problem? Also note that after using activesync, it doesn't shutdown on its own. You have to manually shut it down to release the memory. Further try using the default home screen, instead of the sliding panel which comes with new 6.1 ROMs.
Because I normally have more than 20 MB free . No matter how long I have kept my device on.
Or better still, just reboot the device before going to bed .
yeah. i use photocontacts pro and smart toolkit in addition to microsoft voice command. and is it a good idea to keep rebooting the device daily? i thought the rom upgrade was supposed to fix that!and i love the sliding panels. the default homescreeen sucks

Sliding panel really drains the battery like hell. Its not a problem if you reboot your ROM daily. I flash my device (both), well almost once a week atleast . So that requires rebooting as well. I really don't know whats wrong, but I never had the RAM issue, try fireburned Clean ROM or fraun's lite ROM for a change and see if you find any difference
I have same problem with my htc vox
So which is it?
In my opinion, startup auditor is the easiest to use and has a friendly UI.
Autostarts on the other hand allows you to do much more and is also fairly easy to understand..
I made a poll, check em out, and leave your vote!
Best startup manager ?
Best startup manager
Do you think any startup manager is best than MSconfig :shifty:
Its free guys , well it has many flaws like user can't add any new
program into it , Many applications in market provide u the best
solution to manage the startup programs. That's why user has to go for
other utilities.Well I can suggest u one of them which I found really
useful namely Advanced system optimizer , basically it boost ur PC
performance by optimizing it.U can use its startup manager that manages
your startup program on win7 as well as vista no matter 64 bit or 32 bit
OS. It is available on CNET & Tucows
Download it & have a look on other applications including startup manager
embedded in it as well.
Lemme know how it goes

I think he talk from Android and not from PC.
Back to topic
Why any startup Manager?`Android kills the apps if RAM is needed for another Apllication. So why you want to deactivate them from starting?
Right, i was talking android apps.. In the android apps sections
I find that on my Evo if I don't do "some" kind of management (stock or root) I get slowdowns when it reaches <50MB free ram.
Many ways to fix that.. The best is probably adjusting the low-mem "killer" that android already comes with.
However, I find that also using a startup manager not only speeds up boot and prevents things like the Launcher from closing when say I click the camera button and about 5 applications run code (leaving little RAM and killing off the hog, Launcher).
Apps like autostarts let you disable everything except say, the camera..
There are such triggers all over android such as screen turning off, audio becoming too noisy LOL, different buttons, bootup that apps can register for.
If you disable the app from being accessed everytime one of those actions occurs, then you are in control of everything that runs code when you are unaware.
I am against task managers and auto task killers, but this is a viable way of making sure nothing runs without your knowledge.

Refine Efficiency Pro (http://refineandroid.doodlekit.com/)
Refine Efficiency Pro.
It has 2 approaches for rooted and not rooted devices. As you know it's quite long to load booting settings of apps on a device. Refine Efficiency caches this info during a launch and show it quite quickly second time and after.
The approach for rooted devices is reliable. 100% the app will not run on boot.
The approach for not rooted devices is just a killing of the app on boot.
The first time Refine Efficiency can not turn on/off booting settings of the app it proposes to switch to the not rooted version.
It's pretty usable to manage startup settings in Refine Efficiency Pro.
- start up manager (root and non root(no guarantee));
- cache cleaner (root and non root(individually)), no sd card cache support;
- market history cleaner;
- task killer;
- task scheduling.
Also browser history cleaner.

Thanks for this excellent thread.
I've heard good things about Autorun Killer.
Here another issue:
Issue 15707: Allow choosing the startup applications - Startup manager
I can`t imagine some Desktop OS without any user "autorun control".
Would it be acceptable a Windows without msconfig?
Maybe google wants to have its apps running whenever they want, and this is a privilege too for corporations as Amazon, Verizon, etc.
Best regards!
Autorun Manager
autorun killer is the best.
I tried them all
autorun manager for me.
easy to stop startup processes (and for those who say android auto frees up memory theres a world of difference between starting with 110mb free memory, and starting with 40mb free memory)
But it also has a lot more in the advanced view when you can disable as many of the recievers as you want. My galaxy ace boots up with 110mb free and nothing major is disabled

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
i think..
the best is when u use Creed ROM...
the StartUp Manager is Awesome..
My vote goes to Autostarts. I tried tinkering the two highest voted startup cleaner apps in the poll. Sure, the Startup Manager was really easy to use but it's so straightforward that it kinda missed a lot of what Autostarts can do. Startup Manager simply does what it says it can do--stopping unnecessary apps that starts up during boot, nothing more, nothing less. Autostarts, on the other hand, does more. It can stop apps from running during startup and a lot more. It can control apps from running too on some events that happen on your device like when you turn WiFi on, when you change the date and time, etc. I was able to stop widgets from showing up on the Add>Widgets menu. Don't quote me on this though. This is just based from my limited knowledge on evaluating stuffs.
I chose Startup Manager.
I deleted v3.8 to install 4.1. The trouble is that when I try to choose the custom application that I already had disabled with your Startup Manager, it weren't there. It was not on the list of the applications in Startup Manager. Can you help me?
download magic locker and the steve jobs magic locker theme it is a steve jobs lockscreen and i love it
I tried top startup managers but I finally settled with the option which is in 'Clean master' app called Autostart manager (this feature appears if the device is rooted) and i think it is working very well.
Hi there,
I am on MIUI GB (2.4.13) and I noticed the same issue on CM7, so I guess this is kernel related as I already tried to uninstall every app on my phone.
After 3 or 4 days of use, I can feel the phone waking up slower and having more lags during sweeping home pages or even typing sms.
I use setCPU with no overclock and tried smartass, ondemand and interactive governors, each time having the same issue.
I think this is related to memory usage because after a fresh boot, my phone is about 450 mb free, if I launch successivly all my apps i reach about 400 mb and the phone is still flying.
But after some days of use the available memory drops to 300 mb and lower, and each time I notice this comes with the lags.
Does anyone experience the same issue, or better, knows a way to fix it ?
I don't post really ofter so I will also thank Nexx and superkid for their work on the early stage of the Desire S developpement.
Anyone on this ?
Just to confirm that I am not alone >.<
Maybe a thread somewhere already talks about this...
A few things you could try:
1) V6 Turbocharger by Zeppelinrox HERE

Using script manager to open the *.pdf, set as su save then run it you will have many options including 'quick engine flush' and 'detailing' which will help your particular problem. These actions and others can run from your home screen too via widget as a short background process. Once you've ran the script with script manager, exit script manager, choose SM widget from home-screen and find the particular script you ran before. Then you can flush whenever you experience lag building up.
2) Various Cache cleaning programs such as SDMaid etc...
3) A start-up manager to limit which programs boot on start-up. System Tuner Pro is a good all-round program you can try, that is feature rich.
Good Luck
Many thanks, I'll try V6 stuff, the developper is a good seller.
I'll install it on monday and tell my feedback here after 4 or 5 days.
So with the OTA ICS update, I noticed that the stock task manager that was on gingerbread has been removed. Does anyone know why that is, and is it recommended to use any of the market task managers? The reason I ask is sometimes I forget to close things like maps or navigation, and I usually set it up to kill the task once my screen locks to save battery.
A common misconception is that apps run in the background forever; this is not true. If an app is using too much memory (which links to battery life) it’ll be killed by your phone. That’s why if you play a game, check a message, and come back the game is still running. It’s memory usage isn’t that high. However if you put your phone down, walk away for an hour, and the game is still trying to run in the background, there’s a good chance it will be closed before you come back. Separate task managers have to constantly be running in the background which can actually use more battery than it saves. Yes, task managers can use more battery than claim to save.
Long press the home button. Swipe left or right to close out an application. Or, if you're really concerned about this, under Settings -> Developer options, there is a setting under the APPS category called Don't keep activities. It says that selecting it will "destroy every activity as soon as the user leaves it." Also, you can limit your background processes there as well.

Just wanted to add, while the task manager has disappeared explicitly as an app, as Apex rightly pointed out ICS is more dynamic in it's task & app management since being a upgraded iteration of the Android OS. Also whilst the further useful tips what Apex has advised, bear in mind the swipe to end action will never show background processes & tasks, rather it shows only running main non system apps. Also since practically everyone makes use of a file manager like Astro you also have a task manager (which is an inbuilt function of the program) which you can make use of. Similarly Avast too has an inbuilt task manager. Also many apps have internal setting to disable feature of autostart while rebooting which you may want to look at. I kind of feel also a lot of apps have got work to do in terms of coming to speed with seamless ICS cohabitation until which point of time they misbehave at times.
A thing which I miss is, earlier when we used to hit the home button it would revert to the third home page out of the five and if pressed once again all the five home pages would float simultaneously but I believe this functionality has been discontinued now.
