[Q] android keyboard lag - General Questions and Answers

Does anyone else face a keyboard lag? How do i solve this problem? Its getting irritating cause when i type some letters don't come up. I don't think its the sensitivity problem as when i type in slow motion all the letters come up.
Thanks in advance!

What phone are you using?
did you move some (system-)apps to sd-ext?
I only know this problem from my old G1 / HTC Magic, which usually ran low on ram which was the reason for the lag

Try other Keyboard from the market...I would suggest ICS keyboard downloadable free from the market and see if that works...else try to free some ram by removing unnecessary background application. I have used the phone and I dont think there should be any problem

[FIX] lag on homescreen redraw on ADW & LauncherPro

I recently found this while looking in the Viewsonic G Tablet forum here on XDA, and decided to try it on my Evo. I can confirm that it works - my homescreen with ADW and LauncherPro redraws with no perceptible lag.
YMMV
this was first posted over at http://www.droidforums.net/forum/bu...draw-launcherpro-adw-credit-samsonite801.html

If you use ADW or LauncherPro and if after using your browser, email or any other apps for awhile, then if you press the 'HOME' button, if it takes forever to redraw your home screen, and you are sick of that HORRIBLE LAG, then try this: In a terminal,
type su and enter.
Then type echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop and enter.
Then reboot.
Now evaluate whether or not this fixes your lag.
My home and app drawer draw so much faster now!!!
This was originally posted, on the Gtablet forums, here by raydog153 but its makes ADW Launcher so much better that it demands its own thread.

hey man i have an evo and just ran this on miui and the stock launcher flies now. thx for this find.
my brother has a samsung vibrant he uses launcher pro plus on. do you think this will work for him?
Nice, Bro!
Been trying to figure a way to stop the lag in ADW EX...I wonder if this will fix the 4D app drawer force closing and causing ADW to restart...I'm gonna go try this and I'll edit this post if it stops the lag and crashes with the 4D app drawer...
No...it does not fix the 4D app draw issues but it does help redraw the home screens and app drawer after a FC/Crash...

This works well on MIUI 0.1.14 for me also.
Does it stick after reboot??

i would assume so, since the directions say to reboot the phone after applying it
Fantastic~!
Thanks for the reply simp
I don't see a file in /data called local.prop, but I issued the command anyway and rebooted the phone. Feels no different to me.

Not a problem - definitely works great for me too!
This works for Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher so yes it will work on the Vibrant.

Typically this doesn't make a difference until you're using something that has a high graphic content - the redraw is usually slower from there. That's where I noticed an immediate difference

Yes it does stick.

working for me
No major difference for me as far as speed with going from screen previews to default homescreen (my biggest speed foobar in cm7). Hopefully this will be of some benefit under load, else I'll just nuke the file it created.

Google music 3.0 available in Market

You can now download an official version thru the Android Market. New features are a recents tab and a nice looking 3d gallery when viewing in labdscape. Still no cloud sync but I have a feeling it's close
They are accepting requests for the beta too at music.google.com

this might be one of the bugs they are working out. I've read this problem before in another thread about this player in the Android Development and Hacking forum. Maybe look through that thread for a fix.
I was using the first leaked version and I can say only using this new version for one night that its way more refined and works and runs way smoother. The only thing missing is lock screen controls but if you're running the greatest Rom ever made, SR4.0, you can use the lock screen controls that come with the Rom.
Also it is only available in the US Android Market.
can someone theme this widget...it is disgusting! maybe it is because i have cm7 with "the way gingerbread should have been" theme. if someone can make a semi-transparent black or grey widget that be great!

Cyanogenmod 7.03, also installed on OMFGB 1.2 and reads internal fine on both.
probably because neither of those are htc incredible based roms.

That would make sense (pun) because theyre android open source.

[Q] Bug with camera and dictionary

Hi,
I have some bug with Dexter 1.3 bugfix3, when I launch camera, I can record a movie but then when I goback to camera to take picture, I haven't any picture, I just see menu and screen is black were it will normally have the picture of what I want to take. To fix I have to wipe dalvik cache and cache.
So, someone know how to fix ?
More, I haven't any word prediction on the ROM in french, does someone know how to have ?
Thank you and sorry for my english.
I don't know about the camera but you can try this gingerbread keyboard , I believe French is in there

Are the wipes absolutely necessary, or does a reboot without the wipes also fix the problem?
The dictionary prediction is also awful for English--I also use gingerbread keyboard as a workaround.

Wipe is necessary, reboot don't fix the problem.
PS: For keyboard, it is a white or an orange keyboard ?
The ginger original glass is a std keyboard, my mod (the darkfroyo) is black/orange, functionally they are both the same.

Is there any way to fix camcorder problem ?
Reinstalling YouTube ROM & looking Form Bugfix Patch
I'll search later
Sent from my XT720 using XDA Premium App
I have the same problem when I used the camcorder or camera to take pictures, the screen goes black, and I have to reboot to use it. but as that happens, I've lost the opportunity to take photos or videos, that is, having the camera at the right time.
The only solution is to reboot and / or clean cache?
PS: I really desperate to be restarting the phone to use the camera, anyone know how to fix it?
re-flash it again or reformat sdcard.

Re flash means to restore factory settings? If you change a class 4 SD could improve performance and your camera phone?
Do you have another fix than reflash because it not the first time I flash this ROM and I follow all steps before flashing so, I don't mind that it will fix and I don't want to lose all my apps.
It looks to be fixed for me, I don't know how and I am not sure but I just add camera to ignore list from autokiller and it's seen to be fixed, I can record a movie view it and then take pictures.
I will post if I have again this bug.

I've never seen an ignore list in Autokiller. Autokiller just tweaks the AndroidOS memory manager (minfree parameters). It sounds like maybe you're using a task killer not a minfree tweaker. You might want to do a little research on task killers in froyo. My understanding is that they quite often cause more harm than good. Optimizing minfree parameters on the other hand can be quite helpful.

mmmm but I do not use any application to kill applications, then I do not think it is the problem.
So, it could just be that for me because I did that and I took some movies then I reboot and bug leave.

Yes, in my case the problem is that after using some applications and try to use the camera no longer works, but after a restart work well. Then come back to use some applications and the camera no longer works.
I am using the Dexter ROM with all patches.

[Q] FitDroid Bugs, i guess

Hi again guys,
so i was able to flash FitDroid v2.0 already... I flashed it with AlienMod Theme...
Though somethings doesn't seem to work...
first, the app2SD, when i try to move the the apps from phone to SD Card, it gives me an error... "Filed to move application. Not enough memory."
i followed the 512 or above and 64m swap space... but it still doesn't seem to work... i tried not changing that, thinking that maybe it won't get activated but it still does the same thing... instead of having my phone memory save space... right now, it consumes it, ALOT!!
HELP??
second, the keyboard 3x4 gives number only, though i know there is a fix for it but then, you'll just be using the stock samsung keyboard, is it possible to have the bug it self fix? i kinda like how it looks like... is it a bug on FitDroid or of the Theme?
EDIT: i had it verified, the problem was actually from the AlienMod Theme... is there a way to fix that? or can anybody fix that? thanks...
any thoughts on this?
