LOL, You can change the font, change the wallpaper (Annoying Wallpaper), Messup with APN which will cause the internet to not work, Installing applications with lots of ad, Messup with developers setting which is dangerous, Change the ringtone to something scary (LMAO) and lots of other mishap.

Hit "Thanks Button" if this helped you!

How broken do you want it to appear I can certainly help you make it appear broken. My suggestion would be go into Developer options in the settings turn it on and select the check box for SHOW SURFACE UPDATES it will cause the screen to flicker at random in random colors during any sort of backg

HI! I tried your advise but there is no such option to submit background processes on LG E615.......so that is not working.....do you or anyone else have other good suggestions?

I can see no good coming out of this - thread closed.

[Q] Advice, Tips, and Help Needed - Noobie

Hello, I have some questions, and need some advice and help - Thank You
Firstly, i am new to android, and recently got a new phone, running ICS. However im having some problems.
My Phone has 1gb RAM
I haven't installed much, and I have Disabled most of the pre installed rubbish.
Yet, it always says, 490MB USED RAM? Why is this? I even calculated the stuff i had running and it was around 290-310mb MAX, So why is so much RAM Being used? ( This is after I have installed and killed apps, i installed Advance Task Killer and Task Manager)
Secondly, Hard Drive space is no issue, i have 1.9gb free internet and USB sotre is i think around 8gb, when installing apps, Do You recommended to move them USB Storage or keep them in internal ( if i put them in USB Storage is there a chance of them being/working slower.
and Finally the biggest and main problem, How do i stop my phone from Sleeping? Its driving me crazy! After a while (when i am not using it) the phone goes into sleep mode, when i want to use it i cant, wake it up from my buttons, i have to use the power button right at the top, is there a way to alter this?
Thank You
try something like settings>display>screen timeout and/or settings>applications>development>stay awake. Also, it helps people help you if they know what phone you have and what carrier you're on.
Some of the apps do not support movement to ext storage.. Rest can be moved without problems..

I'm running Hyperdrive 6.0 However when I play this Game MLB Derby i get a Blue Flashing Square in bottom left of Screen this look familiar to anyone (Screenshot Attached? Almost looks like the screen isn't working or erroring in Corner? Tried reading but not too much on. I did try altering some developer settings but can't seem to find a fix. Thought it was GPU Related

Go to developer options and uncheck "force GPU rendering".

Tried the devlopers option for gpu rendering no luck thin should change kernal

Ah I'm not on hyper right now but you have to reboot after unchecking it and I believe he forces it on boot, so you have to find the line in the build.prop that he's enabled. Forcing gpu rendering is often pointless and causes a lot of ****ery with apps. Mainly games.

Thanks do u know how to acess the line in build?

No problem. Use root explorer, navigate to system/build.prop, longpress to open with text editor, find that line (towards the bottom), change it and save.

Actually unchecking force gpu rendering and rebooting should be all you need.

[Q] slow keyboard

Is anyone else having to wait when typing fast on the keyboard? Or perhaps using a faster than stock keyboard?
When I type it lags behind and has trouble keeping up.
That's the only problem I have with the phone.

I don't have any keyboard issues. Which keyboard are you using? Google Keyboard or the Huawei keyboard?
Changing the power settings to normal fixed it for me.
Google keyboard.... But the last one got it... Just set power settings to normal and all is well with the world again
And some cracked apps make your phone sluggish, make sure to get apps on trusted site or store, when I format to factory default and just get apps from amazon, opera, Google store, runs smooth at it should be
The Google keyboard doesn't ever give me problems, but I've had to stop using Swype. It lags so badly it becomes completely unusable. I'll try changing the settings you guys mentioned because I really miss Swype.

yes, change to normal battery settings, phone still lasts 2+ days, and keyboards are just as fast.
