I have recently updated to 4.0.3, I have been using the ICS keyboard until then. Since after the update, my keyboard started to lag, missing letters and words sometimes. I thought it was the ICS keyboard that was incompatible with the update so I bought Swiftkeys3 and also Perfect Keyboard but with the same disappointment.
tl;dr - all my keyboards (including stock) are laggy and cannot keep up with moderate tapping. Any ideas?

Sounds like you need to re-flash the ROM you installed. You could sometimes have these issues after flashing. Try again, doing a full wipe. Should help.
I'm running the official 4.0.3 Rogers ICS release, does that make a difference? It's not a custom ROM

Good Morning XDA!
I've been a lurker on these forums for a while, and I've tried every ROM for the S4G that you incredible devs have released. I haven't had any issues that weren't my fault like forgetting to do something or skipping a step in the flashing process....and I'm sure that's all this issue I'm having now is.
BUT...
I just flashed Somairotevoli's Simply Simple Beta 1.5 and while reading the latest comments in that thread, saw someone had success with bhundven's new KJ6 kernel. I went ahead and flashed that, as well and now everything seems to be running just fine EXCEPT..I keep getting a force close window that says
The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Can anyone tell me if I did something wrong when flashing through CWM? I was going to post in the Android Dev section, but I don't have enough posts.
Thanks in advance!
That's an issue with my beta. looking into it.

I really appreciate all your work, man. It's not causing anything major, I don't think..just random popup. But the new update looks and runs GREAT! Thanks again!
Weird thing is I thought it was gone as I can't reproduce it. if I flash version 1.0, set it up, then flash my beta, it doesn't happen. So maybe data/factory wipe will fix it, but will have issue fixed before next final

I'll reflash and see if that works. Do you suggest flashing the KJ6 kernel again, also, or just your ROM then your beta update?
Last time, I just flashed your ROM, then beta update, then kernel.
Flash ROM, go through setup.flash update, flash kernel. That's what I did

I get the same message. My phone crashed when I rooted it and began trying to kill unwanted apps by deleting files. I reflashed with the first thing I could find that seemed close to stock, KB5, Kernel 2.6.32.9. My firmware version is 2.2.1 and since the phone is a little buggy and slightly slower under load than the stock froyo software, I'm trying to reinstall the original o.s. This will also restore any hardware acceleration that was disabled by the alternate build.
Before I started to flash a new ICS Rom (which I am quite excited about) I had a D2G on Hexen. I flashed the CM9 ROM and got bricked, so I SBF flashed back to stock and tried again. Again, a brick. I tried a third time with the same result and then decided to try Gummy instead (thinking there may be some issues with CM9 because it is in Beta). It also bricked. In the end I just flashed back to my backup that I saved from right before I began this process, but I would really like to take advantage of these new ROMs. If anyone has any advice I would be most thankful.
Some notes:
I was the the newest CWM Recovery Version
I checked all the MD5 and they all aligned perfectly
Thanks for any help I receive, if you want to know something else about my phone data during this procedure, just let me know.
so you flashed back to.33 or .608 before you flash cm9?

Hexen was made for 2.4.x stock firmware (Android 2.2 and the corresponding Motorola kernel).
All newer ROMs (CM7, CM9, Gummy, Apex, etc.) are based on 4.5.x. Update to 4.5.608 (preferably via SBF; do NOT accept any OTA updates once you're on 4.5.608) and proceed from there.
Ah thanks so much, I forgot that Android Firmware numbers had to match up, I will try again later tonight

I used odin when the 4.0.4 official leak was posted here. I since uses the one click software restore back to 2.3.4. At first it gave an issue with the radio. On my phone while restoring it said "radio fail" but the phone seems to be working.
Now I manually updated the unrooted Sprint official 4.0. And my phone since the very first thing I said, has been randomly rebooting, I tried a different battery and it does the same thing. It's also real laggy. Any advice? Are there stock 2.3.4(7) files I can odin? I want it completely factory. Or suggest the problem? Thank you.

If you are on custom rom, you shouldn't be getting OTA.
Try renaming etc/security/otacerts.zip to otacerts.bak

Thank you guys. Renaming that file at first did not work but after while those annoying updates have stopped so i think it's working.
What's weird is that even after reboot they still were popping up but only after some time they stopped. Odd. Thank you guys.
Now i'm getting some weird message about:"there was an error while trying to download the data. Please try again later"
This is famous pixelrom 1.72 fully touched. I love this rom
Hmm, I've experienced this on Stock 2.3.6 ROM, the download still showing but stopped, It's annoying but, I'd try factory reset & after it completed I'm turning on the phone without sim card (to ensure there is no internet connection) & renaming the "otacerts" file. So download will not be showing & not started
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
So weird. Even the data message went away now. Many thanks guys. I'm keeping this rom.
no problem guys, glad to help

I tried and removed ICS and JB. Went back to GB, it's faster less bloated and does the job for me. GB kept downloading ICS automatically and giving me nag messages to install it.
I found the following thread, which fixed the problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579154
The trick is to install FOTAKill immediately after you install another rom, before the phone connects to the network.
To install it, I used the "adb push" method from cwm recovery.
Hey all, I recently rooted my atrix 2 about 3 days ago then decided I wanted to run ICS so I went back to 2.3.5 then OTA'd to 2.3.6 and got my phone on ICS following Jim's guide. Everything went fine and I was running ICS fine until I downloaded ROMtoolbox and tried to change my font to the DROID font. the screen flashed and everything went to chinese and then my phone reboot itself but now it keepts getting stuck on the white AT&T screen, I've tried running through recovery and rebooting but everytime it just freezes on that screen.
Nevermind guys I got it all back up and working by just reinstalling ICS from recovery menu.

Can you get into bootmenu? If yes, do you have an ICS based backup?
If you don't have a backup or bootmenu the only thing you can really do is fkz back to GB 2.3.5 and re-update...
And for future reference... don't use rom toolbox.. it usually doesn't end well... as you might have figured out.
PEOPLE! Stop goofing around with things using ROM Toolbox, it does nothing for your phone other than cause headaches. I've soft bricked using it, others are having similar problems. It's not worth the hassle. Seriously...

Yupp, even i bootlooped trying to change the font.
Sent from my MB865 on rooted ICS leak
so it would be better to have the individual apps themselves instead of toolbox or stay away from those apps in general? also is it still possible to do the wifi tethering with the ICS leak?
