i'm using touch ki8 rom and some of my games will hang when playing halfway. most noticeable is asphalt 6. sure hang before the race even started. anyone facing this also?

Check whether your touch KI8 got UV and GPU script. To prevent hang cases, you need to mod them or just delete them.

how to block a number from calling in?

Blacklist it. Look for it in call log, long press the number and select option blacklist. tongue.gif

Or you can use some apps such as aFirewall from market.

Hi y'all,

Find that color is too overly saturated. Any good ROM/kernel/apps out there where we can reduce it and make the colors looks more natural.

I've tried voodoo screentune and screen adjuster. Doesn't really helps.
Tried speedmod kernel too as it has the MDNIE tweaks built in, but still not satisfied.

Any advise would be much appreciated.

Androimeda with doc surgeon uses this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261234 to improve screen color. Or you can just use the mod straight away. Make a backup of the file, replace and see if you like it. If not then just replace back with your backup file.

ya, i've stumble across that too.

Tried and failed, the system won't let me overwrite the original file. My phone is already rooted btw.
I was using the ES file explorer.
Why ah?  biggrin.gif
*
I use root explorer. In root explorer you need to enable read/write (by default read only) then only can replace. Explore the function of ES to see if you can enable read/write in system files.

Thanks antt00, manage to copy the file now with your tips. However, the modded display is still not to my liking.  blush.gif

doh.gif Too blue is it? Give it a few days, sometimes our eyes are too used to the screen color that a sudden drastic change may seem too much.

Some also say siyah kernel improve the colour. But i don't notice much. Worth a try. If you want to try, use version 1.8, 2.0 is still not stable.

You can also try the app mention here

There is an app called Screen Adjuster, can tweak the screen colours so no more yellowish tint :

Mine is set to Blue +5, and the screen definitely looks much better

9100G root kernel with CMW release now, what;s benifit from CMW for 9100g ?? since there is not custom rom now
*
Its CWM not CMW. It allows you to flash custom rom, fixes, themes etc. but i think g version all this masih tak ada.

But one useful function you can do with CWM is full complete backup of your phone. icon_rolleyes.gif Any problem just restore backup and you will lose only things that you added after your backup.

Take back to the shop and demand exchange. Just tell them you restart and the phone stuck like this. Probably a defect unit

a very interesting article about the states in our cpu
if this is implemented in kernals, siyah for example, it could potentially decrease battery drain by 55% and it would be more beneficial to actually overclock your cpu in terms of battery drain.

there's logic in it, for those who can handle technical terms, read it.

Yeah saw that. And Hacre opinion on it

Guys, if you've been using stock rom, or other custom roms that based on stock rom (like villain) like myself, you haveeeee to try Cyanogen rom. It brings the whole Android experience to the whole new level.

Some of the 'features' that I WISHED my Android have, most of them is already INCLUDED in Cyanogen.
Just 2 hours of playing with it I already found some of the points I love and adore....

I believe this is just the tip of the iceberg, will post more when I found more neat stuff on this BEAST

Glad your liking CM7. There are more to explore and its a great rom. Look at the main android theme thread in XDA. Got lots and lots of theme for you to pick and change on the fly with theme changer. No need to flash anything.

1) ya the camera app no touch focus quite weird
2) apa ni?
3) you tried CM7.1 or 6.x? I looking at the font now... looks nice ah. Never change font so don't know how pain it is, and after what you said I don't think i'll try to change the font hehe

Too bad you didn't like it sad.gif but good thing you found your favourite rom smile.gif

1) Camera i agree sux
2) I think he means no speed dial also sux
3) Fonts can change with apps like font changer from market not a big issue.

2) Speed dial - touch hold any number to dial a pre-defined contact. Smart dial - touch any combo of numbers and the dialer treats them as alphabets and auto-searches contacts.

3) Font changer bricked my CM7 instal when I tried it. It'll be fun in flipfont is enabled on CM7 though, as I have not seen my peculiar font in any font changer app anyway (Ubuntu Titling Bold Small Re-sized), except on a flipfont apk.

And, for the love of God, quickly release ICS for the SGS2 already.
*
Yeah forgot is also does not auto search numbers/names when you dial. sad.gif I was using Go Contacts then. Kanot tahan the CM7 contacts/phone.
Font changer use to work on my HD2 CM7. Haven't tried on SGS2 yet.

+1 for ICS.
