Xperia Slim not what I was expecting - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Ok I have flashed nearly every gs4g Rom but this Rom really really impressed me. I thought it would look good but be clunky and slow but on the contrary it was sleek fast and beautiful. Thanks developer you have really made me consider sticking to this Rom and not Rom hop every other day. I just wanted to give the developer some more notice. Thanks again!!!!

Yes im really digging it too. Coupled with Seeder app and android tuner it runs pretty sweet. Can't wait for GPS to be smoothed out.

Thanks for letting me know about that seeder app just bought it the reviews sounded all positive. I'm definitely going to follow this Rom as it gets better the only thing I might switch too is cm 10.1 by beast once he gets the Wi-Fi working. Thanks again for letting me know about seeder!!

Just an FYI the GPS is automatically turned on but I don't think it is working right now.
I had some battery drain issues and the culprit was GPSlocation Provider according to Better Battery. Only way to correct it is to turn it off and reboot to stop it from causing a wakelock.
Only issue I have now is RILJ wakelock and PowerManagement Service.
The RILJ seems to be a JB thing.
Anyone else having small problems like this.

i was told power manage was wifi

K well at least that explains that part of the mystery
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Power manager is code for check partial wakelocks and see which app is sucking down battery. Wow wakelock and wlan are wifi. Whenever I was on jb the maps app kept acting up and trying to turn on gps even when I wasn't running it, I used greenify to put it to sleep when I wasn't using it and that seemed to work.

Heh, thanks dude n I have a lil secret fo u all: this rom using the newest n unreleased kernel of Erik...pssst (@ Erik: sorry bro) n amw, social life app of sony xperia Z ported so if u want, search on XDA

[Q] Modems Kernels and other such things

Ok whats the best most stable modem for the Infuse? Like in terms of speed, network stability and battery life. Also was wondering if flashing some kind of kernel would improve anything.

I've used k1 for about 3 days everything is great buy drains battery. I've found that i3 is the best all around modem IMO

Nope. Used it for 2-3 days and wifi actually works good. Everything is good, except for the battery drain. KI3 works best for me.

ROM...Pmid10c stock no bloat cwmr...

Hi so here is what it is, hope this helps some people out, if you want to talk to the dev, pm me and go from there...
I have not flashed this yet but am about to soon. If you do flash, let me know how it goes... As always, flash at your own risk... The dev does not have this exact device but his custom ROM on a very close model has gotten very good reviews...

the rom works........ would be great if there was a way to overclock this crazy thing or another way to speed it up, seems a little slow at times.
'aslo sometimes when i boot up, it just turns to a white screen. I have to power down again and restart it up.....
Outstanding, except for the white screen and the lag. I find the original rom is pretty slow too, except in gaming modes, it plays some every game I've thrown at it with almost no issues... So how's the recovery? It is with it right? And I still couldn't get the damn .img file open, how did you do it?
Edit, you can oc it to like 1.4Ghz but mine is by no means stable at all... set cpu apk is a good oc'r, there are a ton of apps you can use...
I think it would be perfect with jb, no problems at all. I really hope an advanced dev picks this up and runs with it

Make your ROM feel faster

In a some ROMs (CM10, Paranoid, Beanstalk, and I'm sure there are others) under: System Settings > Developer Options
Change the following from 1x to 0.5x:
Windows Animation Scale
Transition Animation Scale
Animator Duration Scale
This speeds up the animations and makes the phone feel a little faster. You can also turn the animations off or slow them down by increasing the value.
No reboot required for settings to take effect.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I just tried it.
But it looks kinda weird...
Little too fast animation??
I think I should use it for one more day and decide which one I prefer more.
Thanks for info though
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Ya. It is a little awkward at first. But after running it all day I'm used to it. And it does make the phone feel just a bit quicker.
There is a similar setting in some launchers to increase animation speed. But these settings change most of the phone animations
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I really like the effect. It's better than turning them off completely.
Indeed. After running it for a few days. I am used to it and it definitely makes the phone feel a bit quicker. I enjoy it
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Yeah
I'm still running like that from few days ago. I already got used to it.
And it does feel quicker.
I knew about this before but it was just to weird at that time so I set everything top default after few min.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I think it is good post but ...my personall thinking is not to go for it
BUT THNX BUDDYY ....

Thanks, I like it
Wow. After using these settings for a while and then switching back it seems so slow! I really like the extra snappiness.

App that helps battery?

Are there any apps out there that LEGITIMATELY help save/prolong battery life? I have memory booster running but that just helps my phone run smoother by killing cached app processes. Anything you guys can recommend?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
This phone requires it's own nuclear power plant lol.
Seriously though, don't use memory boosters. They kill battery.
My setup is, CPU Tuner with timeriffic to set display brightness. With Maz's latest kernel I can get by... mind you I live in a very bad signal area (2 bars if I am lucky).
I set cpu to 216 when screen off with performance governor. Also I turn off data and Wi-Fi when screen turns off.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
I have mazs latest beta kernel as well. Don't really see a difference in battery life from his previous oc kernel. Ill try CPU tuner though

Sure, but be careful with it. I once it accidentally to low enough power to where I could not get out of screen off (kept going back to screen off). Also using one cpu does not work.

Does CPU tuner even work with a kernel that not over clockable?

Would, but only two cpu states will be accessible... fairly useless.
Edit: you need voltage states for intermediate voltages, then it should work. But I have never seen a non OC kernel with granular voltage definition.

Antutu battery saver is genius. on the pulldown notification it gives battery % (+battery added)
so like 100%((+30)
also clean master (which is a memory booster) doesn't run in background so it doesn't deplete battery as much as some others
Sent from my LG-P999
i installed android booster, but also procured a brand new stock battery, and i actually am enjoying about 50-60% increase in battery life... although it still is not a lot (as far as i'm concerned!) after draining it, recharging to 100%, and then calibrating, i went 7 hrs 47 mins from 100% to 50% with normal use - calling, texting, some video, some gaming. not to bad considering my old battery would only last about 3 hours or less with the same kind of usage!!!

Check out DS Battery saver. I use it on my N7, catch is, to save battery it turns off all wireless signals. It also forces the device into deep sleep as well.

Yea, if you get the paid version you can create custom profiles. It's a nice app for a tablet, but only so nice for a phone.

I'm using Trinity ELP file "ELP-G2x-06022012.zip", which has worked best for me as my G2X doesn't work that well with faux-based kernels. I'm also running dual boot with Maz's awesome JB rom with hardware acceleration - this is where I install games and experimental apps.

As like everyone else out here i am not responsible for any issues that may happen to your phone.
I named it skyrom after my kid . First time posting something like this hope i did it right . This is basically stock, no real performance upgrades besides a faster gps. Much cooler ui then standard cm7. Let me know what yall think . Pm me for the link since im a nooby it wont let me: (

Looks awesome.... Does bluetooth works on the new baseband?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2
Probably not, i used the latest nightly. I dont use Bluetooth so i really dont know. Mostly themed.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
Can you be able to make a rom with working bluetooth it can be stock as well with ics/jb theme. I use stock with custom kernel now. Only thing I want to add to it is ics theme. I don't want to use anything from market as it takes more memory.
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2
Sorry dont think i can. Have not been on stock since they updated to new baseband. And only stayed on that until i was able to reroot. Couldnt find any stock themes besides launcher themes. Theres an app called ninjamorph where u can change things but u must be real carefull. I watched and read many things on it before i used it. Most stuff i do is directly on my phone by zipping and unzipping different roms and seeing what works. Biggest problem with this phone is everyone is so concerned with ics or jb. And getting that to work would be great but until then we should create new roms with a more up to date ui. This phone is pretty quick and can do lots of cool stuff and why pay $600 for a new phone when this one still works fine. Had mine almost 2 1/2 years
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
Also if im not mistaken if u roll your phone back to the previous baseband i believe bluetooth works on cm7. I could totally be wrong and i couldnt even begin to tell u how to do that
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
Do you know how to roll back to old baseband? I would definitely do that because I like to use this phone and your exactly right why get different phone when we already have one that needs to have so adjustments to it.
