    Post Random single vibration from Gear S2 without notification

    Next time it happens, check the back of the watch to see if the heartbeat sensor is on. It happened to me today and it made me wonder if it vibrates when it tries to take your pulse and can't get a reading. Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk

    Post Is there a simple to use watchface creation app?

    I haven't created any apps for the S2 (yet), but did see a tutorial for creating a simple watch face on the Tizen developers site using just HTML 5 and JavaScript. A watch face is essentially an HTML canvas element, so it is simply a matter of layering images and vector objects to achieve the...

    Post Request - Tasker Interface

    Nice job on the app! One of the things I've done to "close the loop" on task execution is add a notification action at the end of some tasks, which then appear on the watch as a confirmation. It would be great if we could create a widget with one or two quick access buttons for specific...

    That's one of Euroskank's cherry picks that hasn't been merged yet. I'm also running jellybro and have experienced some bugs with the countdown timer, so I think it's not quite ready for release.

    Post [ROM] ◄ Stock Plus ► v3.01 11/22/2011 Based off of New OTA

    There are several steps to fixing this issue. The first is understanding that there are two system folders that are limited in space: /data (748 MB) and /data/data (150 MB). /data/data is mounted as a separate filesystem and holds application data, including lib files, databases, static files...

    Post [ROM] Nils' Business GingerSense 3.5 - GB 2.3.5 - (11/13/11 v2.2)

    I'm running Nils' 3.0 ROM and I also have this problem. My solution was to install an app from the market called Calendar Event Reminder. I was hoping it was just a 3.0 ROM problem and it I wouldn't need this app when I upgraded, but it sounds like it is still an issue.

    GB rebuilds the lib files, but Link2SD will relink them (after a bit). I just avoid linking the lib files because it made the boot process much longer.

    That might be because gmail is doing database updates and the database files are stored in /data/data. When the gmail database file was on the yaffs2 filesystem, updating it would be faster than it is now on the ext4 filesystem. However, other parts of the program may be faster.

    One use of link2sd with this mod is to relocate some of your (less-critical) DEX files from /data/dalvik-cache to /data/sdext2. I'm going to try this since my dalvik-cache is too big (180MB), but I've identified about 50MB of DEX files that I can link to SD. link2sd automatically re-links APK...

    Post [MOD] Ext4 4 ALL! Gingerbread AOSP + GingerSense Update: 10/27 Normal dalvik fixed

    You may have had old .dex files in the cache from programs that you tried and then subsequently uninstalled (or just hadn't run for a while). I think that if you clear the dalvik-cache, it will only repopulate with .dex files when programs are launched. So if you haven't launched all the...

    Post [MOD] Ext4 4 ALL! Gingerbread AOSP + GingerSense Update: 10/27 Normal dalvik fixed

    The "no_data_limit_normal_dalvik" moves your /data/data files from the dedicated 150MB partition into your /data partition. If you had 100MB of files in /data/data, those files will now take up space in /data, resulting in 100MB less space available. In short, use no_data_limit_normal_dalvik if...

    This happened to me as well and I concluded that my /data/dalvik-cache was maxed out. I use an app called Diskusage (Market link) to analyze space issues. I had to go back to the no_data_limit_normal_dalvik mod to fix the issue.

    Thanks! My phone was performing fine with v2.1, but I couldn't install any new apps or updates from the market.

    My dalvik-cache was 179 MB before converting and now stays pegged at the max (0 free space), but it doesn't seem to affect normal use and everything is fast. Dalvik seems to be managing the available space very well. Starting a large app after clearing the cache seems faster than before...

    Compatible with NotEnoughSpace? I'm currently using NotEnoughSpace to link certain cache, database, and files folders from data/data to my SD card. Does this introduce any issues when flashing the data/data mod? Are the links preserved when the contents of data/data is copied to the new location?
