Were quite a ways from 4.0 CTMod
My SSM had two partitions. 512mb each. I even ran the for matter. But my memory was basically almost full with 10 apps almost or past 10mb each.
So it was obviously not working.

..dont rush perfection.
3.6 is a big difference for me, from 3.5, 3.2 was good.
but all i see next would be to perma-fix that MUI with file explorer? or what ever its called, i use that root explorer (purple folder icon) much better. its not on the market either..sad
..also putting the updated KoumaMOD 1.5 in there, the previous version, that comes with 3.6 was constantly resetting my settings after i rebooted, and would crash and reset everything...now 1.5 is good.
Though...im NOT sure, but i think the BLUETOOTH and/or GPS is acting up...could just be me, but in BLUETOOTH, i scan and Always get this ROKU device...no matter where or when. And the GPS, seems to lag a little or sometiimes not work...ill turn it on, it finds my location, but the next day, its like...im tired...and just doesnt want to play.
But....after fixing some crap..it could just be my issue, unless several other people have it.
Would be nice to have a Built-in-Theme manager.
i like some of these themes, but would also like to re-store the stock 3.6 theme...with out having to use CWM
But theres not much for 3.7 or 3.8, let alone 4.0
besides maybe some firmware updates or something...or some more enhancements. Id say 5.0 would be better, would sound nice, but im a car guy with a 5.0 '69 mustang.
but since 3.4/3.5 im not constantly looking for a next update, since 3.6 its been alot smoother, less headaches and workarounds.

unless there is a really major change, 3.6 is great no issues with really anything that can be worked around. anyone having problems must have caused them themselfs without knowing it. meaning, by install apps wrong or fooling around with settings that shouldn't be or whatever!!!!

Ok, solved it... no sleep and gas fumes..make dizzy and cant think...the smell of old mustang idling..anyway.
So it was KIES, control panel showed ONE install..and ONE install of the samsung drivers package.
using windows7 manager, i saw 2. so i uninstalled them ALL, KIES,Samsung Driver package.
rebooted... plugged in the phone windows saw it, downloaded the drivers, now it works.
so incase anyone comes across this issue, thats how its done.
let wiindows handle the installation of drivers...and it will work.

a few posts back I was asking about volume-boosting and Beats Audio was suggested, someone provided the link. I tried installing it (flashing in cwm) but it's no where to b found on my phone. Cant find anything at all. If it is there and I dont know it, it dont do shit. no difference at all. ???????

It's not an app. You will not see an icon for it. Also, you might want to try installing the EQ from the thread too.
Some people can tell a difference with Beats installed and others can't. I didn't notice a difference. I did notice a difference once I installed the EQ though.

It worked but to bump up the volume and have the system sounds and ringtones louder I really had to max out the last 3 higher frequencies on the EQ. I noticed more of a quicker battery drain, maybe because now it made another system process constantly running and maybe forcing it to use more power from an increase in the levels.
I got rid of it, redid the phone to get rid of all parts of it. I'll find another way. I'm looking into the internal stuff that controls all of that.

I'm a little confused about this. Some posts ago I was discussing with Blood about my install of CTMod, he explained to me that after I run SSM and that sets up my partitions, then the actual install of CTMod3.6 formats the partitions and there is no need to run that Formatter zip. But that's kind of the opposite of what your saying above.

I see a few people have had trouble with that. Me, I was able to make a backup, but can't change icons again after backing up. Check the xda forum. I'm sure there'll be a resolution soon.
what version koumamod.apk you got. if it not 1.5 you need update from kouma kernel thread. 3.6 don't have update. and 3.6 might format but I flash formatter anyways cuz it take 2 seconds and then it for sure format. up to you but it not like it take long.
and if you don't select the path to swapfile or partition and click save in koumamod then you not using swap

anyone have an updated fix for the battery icon to keep from saying its charging?
turned it off,took battery out...waited couple minutes..
put it back in... it went to the battery logo screen, second later it showed the proper amount of juice still remaining, still it wouldnt load past that..
so, i just manually booted to CWM, then from there chose to reboot system...
that bypassed that bug...but still it shows its charging..
Now, i treat my battery good, filly charge to 100% then disconnect, and WONT charge til it shuts itself off..ive done this all the time, and increased my battery usage.
i can see it says 36%....is there an app that resets...Oh Wait...
You think that Battery Stats CLEARER in CWM would work?
i shall try that.
..Nope that didnt work either...

a wipe of everthing and a fresh install will or should fix it, must be from something that was done from you without you knowing it???

I keep getting a force close every time I try to download a podcast from joerogan.net or death squad.tv This is a recent development as I just downloaded one yesterday and I haven't changed anything since then. Any ideas?
