@gastacopz: you also can put the ROM (zip) into your external sd card.

then, in CWM, select to install zip from external sd card.

have you use CWM to do a backup? must do that ok? some people report cannot boot tongue.gif in such case, u can use CWM to restore, ok? biggrin.gif

good luck

If you use Zeam Launcher, in the Home screen, press Menu, Preferences, Action Binding, Home button. You can chose to launch an application. May be can launch the Camera app.

BTW, cow !!! i love ur rom very much!!!! haha!!! but sometimes its got abit lag , why huh ??? hmm.gif

Oh... sorry... mis understood!

Lag huh? I think a few people also reported the same thing. Unfortunately, I have not been able to reproduce that. Is there any specific tasks I can do to reproduce this bug? If I can reproduce it, I can use logcat to trace for the root of the problem...

there is no need to use supercharger v6 because all my ROM already incorporated it:

i m always using OC ROM biggrin.gif now testing the 4 windows stuff.

i experience some lag a moment ago, for like 15 seconds or so when browsing... then i check, my Plants vs Zombie no longer in memory...

i think during that period, lowmemory killer force other app to automatically close in low memory...

after PvZ no longer in memory, browsing smooth again... need more testing biggrin.gif

Apparently the current lowmemory killer setting is kind of aggressive in killing app. Its difficult for me to open more than 4 heavy memory app. However I only experience 1 time lag for like 15 second when pvz got killed..

At the moment, I am fine with the setting since I prefer to give max memory to the current app by having aggressive low men killer. This is good for game which I don't run more than one at a time. But if you multi task a lot, I recommend to use super charger v6, to change to multi taking setting.

cow, is it possible to totally remove zeam launcher? i'm thinking of using other launcher as default and since you said zeam is integrated into the ram, i thought i could free it up by totally removing it..i wonder if it would cause instability? thanks smile.gif

using your newest OC rom now.
*
yes. you can change to any other launcher you like. install your launcher first, then, delete the zeam launcher from /system/app.

the setting i used to make launcher stick in the memory will be applied to your new launcher.

Your low memory killer refer to android default or you did something to that? Why Samsung always choose to close Launcher before any other apps... My launcher needs reload everytime I exit from a game (where's my water, cut the rope... ... ...) or after browsing full web(Youtube, desktop version or flash game). Kinda annoying. I'm making myself to get pissed off very soon so that I will root this bloody device  laugh.gif  laugh.gif

low memory killer tweaked using Option 5 from V6 Supercharger, it's embed in all my ROM. biggrin.gif

LOL, about the launcher, i used to experience that too.. seeing the circle round and round everytime after game laugh.gif

no more liao! thumbup.gif

actually, there is nothing wrong with stock ROM...

I found that,the back button which suppose to exit apps properly doesnt worked.
This eats up alot ram which lead to slowdown and lagging....and sometimes i need to clear ram..
Whats the causes?
*
Most app trying to be too smart by NOT exiting. Bad app! Bad app! Browser, Messenger, etc = bad app! Need to kill in task manager, but even if you dont, when you start running game, those app will be closed.

Some app do close normally with back key - Plants vs Zombie, GPS app, Root explorer, etc, etc...

my antutu score just almost d same using stock rom and cow rom... hmm.gif

supposed to be 4k++ right guys?

1. Ack on the problem, see this to fix it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...8&postcount=285

Get the apk here: http://www.mediafire.com/?b1f6ord39a4z7fe

3. What app? I need to test this.

About antutu score, your phone is still runing at 1.4ghz by default. You need SetCPU to set it to 1.8ghz, then you should see improvement on the score.

Those APK, freshly installed or via Titanium backup? So far, most of the FC (not many luckily) only occurs when user restore their sms, app, etc....

The widgetlocker... the TwWallpaperChooser.apk will not solve it?

In that case, I recommend you to try flash it again! Try clear everything in CWM just in case. So far, no one report wifi error in the ROM. I suspect the files are not totally installed correctly.

Cow~ Try downclock to 1GHz and use for a day or two and review it here?
My friend Nexus S runs buttery smooth on 800MHz. More lagless than my phone. 4.0.3 Custom ROM though.

Now testing SmartAss2 CPU governor for stability and battery drain... been on this in the last 24 hours or so...

you can down clock your stock rom to 1Ghz using SetCPU, etc. it is overclock that need custom kernel...
