Important :

Turn off A2SD if you don't want to use it.If you find apps are missing after reboot then use Link2SD to add mount script at boot.

Quote:
Q. I am getting bootloop after Installing App/moving dalvik to sd-ext, what to do ?

Quote:
A.This is caused due to error mounting sd-ext or in building dalvik in sd-ext,if you getting bootloop after installing app the turn off a2sd from a2sdgui and if you are stucking in Sony Ericsson logo after moving Dalvik to sd-ext then go in CWM and go in advance,and just clear/wipe dalvik cache.
Quote:
Q. I want boot sound in my ROM, what to do ?

Quote:
A.Just download Add on pack from download section and restore bootanimation.zip from NeroDroid_BootSound folde to get boot sound.Note,this will remove ICS bootanimation and will give NeroDroid v4 bootanimation.
Quote:
Q. My a2sd is messed up,apps are missing,dalvik cache is not movable, what to do ?

Quote:
A. This is due to error in mounting SD-EXT partition,Simply reboot your device and all apps will be shown properly.And after reboot please wait for a while as apps are being loaded from SD-EXt so its a slow procedure.Also it depends on your SD card speed.
Quote:
Q. Timescape facebook feeds are not working, what to do ?

Quote:
A.This is because i have removed facebook from my ROM by default.Install facebook for android from android market and the timescape feeds will work for face book.Its not any kind of bug.
Quote:
Q. Home button is not opening app drawer, what to do ?

Quote:
A. This is due to keychar layout problem.Home button will bring you back to the main home screen but it won't open app drawer.
Quote:
Q. Can I restore current ROM including softwares and settings as it is ?
Quote:
A. Yes,for this make Nandroid back up of your current ROM.And you can restore that backup to get your old rom as it is.
After that you can proceed with installation of new rom check it and if you don't like it then reboot in clockwork mode,make full wipe then go in backup and restore->restore and select apropriate backup

Quote:
Q. I am getting force closes of mobile manager,what to do ?
Quote:
A. This is because of ZDBox task killer.It kills background apps that are not in use when RAM use increases.
To fix this go in task manager of ZDBox,find and select mobile manager porcess.And Protect it by long clicking and selecting Protect.
Quote:
Q. I am getting wifi Error,What to do ?
Quote:
A. Which kernel are you using ? If you are using KrSH kernel then flash WLAN_Modules by KrSH via CWM and fix it.If not then use my WiFi_Fix_For_KrSH and try to solve this problem
If you are on NeroDroid Kernel and got WiFi error then use WiFi_Fix_For_KrSH via CWM.I Hope you will get your problem solved

Quote:
Q. I am getting low RAM and having performance issues,what to do ?
Quote:
A. Best way is uninstall unwanted apps first.Second freeze unwanted processes/apps by using Titanium Backup.Following are safe to freeze processes.

  • MtpApps
  • power save mode
  • setup guide
  • ZDBox
  • Mobile Manager etc

Quote:
Q. I have messed up with system but i don't want to loose my settings, what to do ?

Quote:
Q. I am getting low Quadrant Score,what to do ?
Quote:
A. Make sure you have NeroDroid Kernel,in CPU setting enable performance governer (using ROM Tool Box Pro),Reboot and after reboot stop background apps for clean RAM and then calculate Quadrant Score as on Fresh ROM.

This can be done with Netqin Call Blocker
Original software of ICS doesn't support 2.x OS.So this is the optional one...
