    Anyone get this bug when trying to pick a wallpaper from your gallery? The selector box only seems to be in one screen size, instead of the panoramic one that pans when you pan homescreens, weird.

    Also, my WiFi doesn't seem to be turning off when the screen does, I remember on stock there was an option in One Click Lag Fix that let you set the time to wait to turn off the WiFi (to a few seconds), is there anything like that with DM or can I just use OCLF for that and it won't interfere with DM?

    Hey,

    I was having the wallpaper issue at first but it fixed itself almost straight away. You know you have to pinch zoom, pinching the borders? Well even that wasn't working on then just did so keep trying.

    As for Wifi, what do your settings in settings > wireless and network > wifi > [menu] advanced > wifi sleep policy say?

    I have that set to "When screen turns off".

    do you have to wipe first before installing on 9.4 ? also do you have to undo the lag fix first ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Just undo lagfix, no wipe they say is fine. But I had a problem, I lost lots of apps and settings after disabling lagfix, something fooked up, so I did a wipe. I'm now restoring my apps & settings with Titanium on 9.5


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,830 ✭✭✭budgemook


    on darkys page, as well as links to the rom, there are links to dark core (odin and cwm), what are these for?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Just links to the kernel thats included in the rom

    You can upgrade and keep all settings and apps, takes 10 mins. 9.5 feels smoother and fixes the app installing bugs

    I upgraded from 9.4 with 'no wipe' - I just disabled lag fixes first and everything went OK.


  • Registered Users Posts: 863 ✭✭✭itsnotmyfault


    I was happy enough with 9.3 so didn't bother upgrading to 9.4. I'll probably take the plunge and upgrade to 9.5.

    Just 1 question, Is the lagfix enabled by default on 9.3,9.4 and 9.5 or do you have to enable this yourself?

    9.5 is a beauty, well finished, feels snappier than 9.4

    1583 in quadrant, was getting little over 900 on sh1tty samsung firmware


  • Registered Users Posts: 900 ✭✭✭superfish

  • Registered Users Posts: 900 ✭✭✭superfish


    ok so ive both mine and my gfs phone running 9.5 now so far no major probs seems a lot faster although when i went into my gallery the whole thing froze with a line across the screen and dimmed display I actually had to take out the battery to restart although it seems fine now, this happened after applying the new lag fix

    Did it happen on both phones and did it happen again after you restarted?

    I'm finding the stock gallery very slow also, open sgs tools, upgrade stock apps and install the modded gallery

    Note, it may break something, I upgraded the email client before to the Galaxy tab one and had to revert when the barcode scanner stopped working

    That was one of the v9.4 bugs. Should be OK now in v9.5.

    Both myself and superfish are on 9.5

    Upgrading gallery fixes it, not found anything broken yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,555 ✭✭✭Squeeonline


    Installed 9.5 without wipe but i did turn off the lag fix and put it back on.

    quad is about the same (1480-1580), but not really noticing any other differences.

    Stock gallery is pretty slow, slower than 9,4, but better after installing the mod from SGStools.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,830 ✭✭✭budgemook


    So yesterday I did a wipe upgrade to 9.4.

    Going to do a non wipe upgrade to 9.5 today so I don't have the bugs.

    I hear people saying make sure you disable lagfix. Why's that? Do I just do it in Darkys Configuration app?

    Thanks

    Restart into recovery, disable voodoo lagfix and system lagfix. It takes a while so be patient. Then reflash with 9.5
