Well, tried all possible things, wireless at my home and at my favorite hotspot are acting up and giving me periods of great connectivity (for some minutes) and then the connecting-disconnecting loop (for another few minutes). All in all it's something I'll get to live with till you guys stumble upon a fix.
My restarts of adw.launcher were far more irritating (and worse...they happened even on a couple of tests with huawai.launcher). So, detailed: I installed the rom from scratch (something like 7-8 times), restored some apps with titanium, played with it for a few hours without any issues and even installed loaaaaaads of apps 1-2 times. After these few hours it entered a loop where the launcher stopped responding and restarted (from cyanogen logo), entered the home screen, lagged big time (fancy widgets took like 30 secs to load clock and weather). Once I entered apps section (more frequently) or even as I just pressed anything it just restarted again.
After my many attempts, I think I pinpointed the issue to a few options, so I'll just give them here as ideas (I am not very willing to just test it again, I got this last install to work for 30 straight hours...with no need to charge batt by the way), hoping to provide food for thought for a test/fix/extra stability for our next great update
:
1) (and less likely) In the "stable" attempt, I have less apps installed. Might be an issue with the number of apps or widgets loading? Still the difference is not significant between this attempt and the failed ones.
2) (and most likely bringing fruit) In the "stable" attempt I didn't restore few apps I thought might be responsible for a crash. The ones left out were these (i put an * on my suspicions): colornote, documenttogo, mx player, winamp, a couple of games, setcpu*, link2sd* (although it still looped in one attempt where I only didn't restore this), SDspeedincrease*.
I mostly lean to setcpu, as the few hours passing before reboots started seem to be related to lower battery, that might have caused an issue with the change in the power management settings (i had the cpu run slower when low on batt). Still not sure though, as it never got *that* low to start the energy saving mode.
Well, that was my 2 cents. Hope it will help, I will provide more feedback as it goes.
At this point, still, I am soooo delighted, as it works A+, really fast (I'd rate that as double the speed of 2.2 and definately almost double as well as the stock vodafone rom (vodafone joy 845). The wifi issue is a problem still, but I am having fun with the mob as it is, so I get over it and hope you'll outsmart the gremlins of connectivity and routers and will give us a fix on that. Keep up the great work.
btw: I'll try some reverse tethering tomorrow or the day after, hope that works for stable connection at least at home. I have enough usb-extension cables that I can almost travel 2 rooms away and still have it plugged in.
Nah, joking...maybe!
I'll still check in to see if someone strongly disapproves of it.
btw(2): Memory is a bit "on the wires"...system rom states 178MB with 7.11MB free, RAM of 130MB has more than 60MB constantly in use for me...(need GO keyboard and greek, and GO SMS pro...i know it's luxury but i just can't live without it) and GO dialer and GO contacts are lagging 1-3 secs on press, but all in all I manage
