Increase scrolling distance? - HTC Sensation

I'm running cm9 and when you scroll vertically it doesn't really go very far.. it feels kinda heavy?
Is there anyway to make it scroll further so that it feels lighter? Hope this makes sense its hard to describe what I mean.

I'm not sure if that Rom has this option but some roms have a infinite scroll option that might help. I know my Rom has this option. Check your settings to see if it's available. Best wishes .

Yeh I'm running the same rom and experience the same issue. Would be interested to know if there is a solution.
I don't think there are any options to change this in the settings. As far as I can see anyway.

Infinite scroll is for the Rosie, makes it so it keeps going in a cycle.
Does anyone know how to improve this? When I say increase scrolling distance, I mean so the scrolling is kinda like iOS... I'm not saying I want iOS but I do like the scrolling.

I get what you mean. I've tried CM9 before and I get that same experience when flicking pages up and down...it felt kinda heavy and not smooth. That's why I reverted back to HyperNonSense in order to enjoy this smooth flicking experience. However some claim that by putting these parameters into the /system/build.prop of CM9 and reboot helps:
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=240
ro.min.fling_velocity=8000
to.max.fling_velocity=12000
You may wanna give it a shot and see if that helps.

Thanks for the tip, it didn't change my scrolling on CM9 at all though, I did however change the "to.max.fling.." to "ro.max.fling.." as I think the "to" part was a typo on your part, right?

Anybody trying the new android market?

Seems pretty cool. But very slow... Takes forces to load and download. Anyone else having problems?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I just installed about half hour ago and I have to say it's fantastic! Google is on UI TEAR right now #winning.
I really like how they condensed the app list into two columns and made each smaller. It now shows 14 apps per page on my Sensation where the old Market only showed like 5 or 6. Makes scrolling through content much faster.
I also really like the additions of the "Top Grossing", "Top New Paid", "Top New Free", and "Trending" categories. Will make app discovery much more useful!
My only gripe is that it doesn't show the file size for an app UNTIL you start downloading. This is info that needs to stay up front!
I agree with just about everything you said. They did great with the new market. So you are not. Having the same speed issues as me?

Oops I left that part out. It IS a lil slow compared to the old market, little lag but nothing too crazy. I think mostly b/c there is much more info on each page now and the way it loads the thumbnails/images, even though they are smaller. I'm sure they will iron it out quickly though
Google did an amazing job.
It looks so clean and beautiful, everything is organized better, etc. And I'm not having the slow loads or anything that you are having. It's actually faster. With the old market you would click download and it would take a second or 2 to start, but on this new market I click download and it's literally instant. I love it.
It actually looks like a market that should be on a high end OS/phone, unlike the old market.
Slow for me as well. It'll take a while to get used to the new format, but so far so good.

just trying it out too -- its pretty slick. The front page is a little busy perhaps, but overall its great.
I'm liking it as well.
Installed it earlier.. Love it!!
new market is slick as hell. I love it. I don't really notice too much of a lag compared to the old market, which I hated in the first place especially in landscape mode. The new one looks more sophisticated.
fyi, in case nobody caught on, when you hit the menu button and go into setting while in the market, you can deselect "recieve interest based ads". I don't know if that had anything to do with it but I really don't have any lag. Also, I pulled the battery right after I installed it so some of you guys might wanna try that too.

Gingerbread Video- what's new in the update

I took the liberty of showing you guys what gingerbread looks like- on video. New features include Android 2.3.4 (but no video chat on G-Talk?), new T-Mo bloatware, quick settings, etc. check it out!

Thank goodness YouTube has a mute button.
Thanks for the vid. I could be wrong, but isn't this the first Sense ROM to have Android 2.3.4? Every other version of Sense I've seen has had 2.3.3. Cool!

First, thanks guys! I'm glad you guys appreciate the video, and for the record this is the ROM that was leaked on Monday, but it's the same as the one T-Mo is rolling out
and my screen works fine, it's just harder to use when your making a video the update didn't do anything screen wise

My screen is very responsive running on Virtuous Unity. I noticed that too on the video. I'd hope an update wouldn't make your screen unresponsive. He may not have been touching right those few times. Also, some apps get like that from time to time where they get a little unresponsive
so basically nothing changed like i dont really see a difference looks wise i mean i would rather flash and all so i can get nice themes and all

Turn Around Pt. 2- Flo Rida
I noticed that they changed the camera as well, it now has more effects. The calculator has been tweaked as well. And this may be just me, but the battery life seems better. I'm still in green and usually by now I'm in yellow.
Has there been any issues from the OTA update, other than not being able to root? Has the suspend issue been fixed?

Launcherpro + turn off all animations = fastest phone I've ever used

Everything opens up instantly now...it's faster than my buddies g2x.
I'm sure most of you already know that animations and eye candy are what slow this phone down. Using launcherpro makes it faster (blocking most of the sense stuff/animations), but it still wasn't quite fast enough. Then I went to settings, display, turned off all animations, and now it's blazing fast. Opens up most things instantly. I love it.

Probably apps would open just before you hit the shortcut...
With custom roms I'm guessing an app will open right as you just start thinking about opening it. Makes sense.

I'm running the same setup and its fast. Try getting spare parts from the market and turn everything to fast and it will fly even more!
I dont know, I tried disabling animations in the settings but I still got a bunch of HTC animations. To me, LauncherPro seems a lot smoother on my Nexus One (unrooted, stock, etc...)
I run the same setup on my phone too, i have with all my phones, When i got the cliq it was the slowest phone ever and i used launcher pro which made it somewhat faster lol.
woa! snappy! thx!
Only thing I didn't like about Launcher Pro was the wallpaper cropping. Installed Wallpaper Wizardrii and setup is exactly how I've been wanting.
Thanks.
It really does seem snappy. And the lag when opening launcher pros app drawer has disappeared aswell!

Try ADW Launcher (I use EX) with the same settings. I find it to be just as snappy however much more feature rich than launcherpro.

ADW EX on its "Fast" setting is quicker and smoother than LP. I have tried all of the launchers in the market and ADW is the quickest as long as you use the right settings. Plus ADW has more customization options than LP. Your right though. When used with a Launcher, it does become faster than the G2X.

Anyone else seeing two processes called android.process.acore using very high CPU when LauncherPro is installed?
I've done some Google research, tried all the supposed fixes I can find, including uninstall/reinstall, and no luck.
Posts on the LauncherPro forum confirm the issue, and many have ended up uninstalling it.
So, if your battery life suffers, check running processes to see if this is the culprit.

[Q] Stutter while scrolling webpages

Hi, I have observed lot of stutter while scrolling web pages in Opera Mobile. I am using ztock rom ZSLE6, stock kernel. Opera Mobile installed on my phone is the latest version available at Play Store.
Also, I have observed such stutters while scrolling in apps like facebook and even the xda app, and while scrolling through home screens. Note that I have no widgets on my home screens, just app shortcuts.
Has anyone else observed such behavior? Is this an OS limitation? Any solution?

i DONT believe this is a thread on ZSLE6. U mean to say this is a ROM issue? Proof? I have observed this across stock roms, on stock kernel. Can't comment on custom roms coz I haven't used them. Unecessary policing/trying to be oversmart on the forum is uncalled for.

I am using neo v2.1 based on zsle5.... i have noticed that on occasion (usually after the device has been on for a long time) scrolling through the home screen
and launcher is very slow.... clearing memory, closing all the apps down or using an external task manager has no effect on this problem.... however this isssue is usually resolved by a quick reboot (it takes <30 seconds).... But if its consistently slow for you I recommend you take it to the service center as when I was using the stock ROM I dont remember any noticeable lags.

Im not sure If I'm understanding what kind of stuttering you're talking about, but please check; applications=> Display, and on the bottom of the scroll list check "auto adjust screen power" and uncheck the setting, then check the stuttering again... If this can't solve your issue can't help you man.

I dont think changing the auto adjust screen power helps as the problem is not with the level of the brightness of the screen but in the animation effects... still i have always kept the auto adjust screen power unchecked so i dont think that could be the problem....

Haven't had time to revert to ZSLE5. Will report once done. But magically stutter seems to be much less (though still present) on ZSLE6 now. Don't know what's happening!
Flashed ZSLE5, everything seemed smooth. Decided to again try ZSLE6. Things smooth on this as well, don't know what hit me earlier... Some lag was observed in both roms, but then that's android's problem. :banghead:
Looking forward to ICS from Samsung or JB from CM, whichever comes first. Though I wish CM nails it to make our device all butter-y!
Same here...flashed zsle5 n den zsle6...the lag has been reduced further..touch is far more accurate on zsle6
Its funny isint it ??

Thanks for sharing the link. It looks quite technical but I cant see anything about GPS in there. Although my Google maps no longer reboots, my GPS still doesn't work on demand. Like Google maps won't be able to locate me now that I am at work for example. Also the weather tab on news and weather app doesn't work because it can't locate me.
Is anyone else having similar problems or able to suggest anything for me?
Thanks in advance.
