Yeah, isn't S2U2 quite the memory hog? I had always assumed it was a battery drain due to this. That's awesome if it really extends battery life by 50%.

Also, I've read it doesn't play very nicely with S2A and causes the phone to lock up during calls. Housinit, are you using it with v1.7 of KK's rom? What version of s2u2 are you using? Have you experienced any lag or freezes?

Kevan,

Just wanted to say thank you very much for the latest 1.7. Its running great, a lot faster than previous builds, i'm attributing that to the new different SYS. My very unscientific way of testing speed it by opening up the Windows folder in Total Commander. Last few builds it has been 11-15 seconds, latest build 6 seconds. NICE! Getting close to Mighty's, his is 3-4 seconds.

Haven't run across any big issues yet. Can't get Picasa to work correctly. But i'm gonna mess with it a bit to see what the deal is.

Thanks again!!

Yeah, well S2U2 is a memory hog. It uses 2563kb in the process list. But it's CPU time is 0%, so thats where I would assume most power consumption would happen. I could be wrong. Yeah, I have S2U2 installed on KKs 1.7, running version 1.45. I always load S2U2 on all ROMs. Its usually the first thing I install and I have been running it since I had my PPC6700.

When I first setup S2u2 on my Touch Pro with S2A installed I did have issues. This was because I set it up the same way I was always used to and enabled the Caller ID and Slide to answer in S2U2. This conflicted with S2A. So now the only thing I have enabled on S2U2 is the screen lock, nothing else. So when a call comes in S2A handles that and S2U2 is completely byp*****. I do not have any lag having S2U2 enabled, at least not any that I have noticed. If there is any, it is negligible. You definitely have to install it on the internal memory, not the SD card, or else you will have lag and lock ups.

The reason I get better battery with it turned on is because if I don't, I am always pulling my phone out of my pocket and it is on for some reason. With S2U2, no matter what, it is always off. I have S2U2 set to turn off the device after 5 seconds if it comes on on its own. This alone helps battery life tremendously. Otherwise, the phone take 60 seconds to turn off. Catch my drift?

BTW, I may have been exaggerating a bit when I said 24 and 36 hours. I normally get about 24-30 hours on my TP with S2U2 installed. Without it, more like 16-18. Still, quite a bit of an increase. This fact has been discussed on other threads about S2U2, so it is not just my imagination.:smile:

I think that word is bypas sed. So funny that it bleeps it out.


Thank you for your review. I need a good locking program, but refuse to sacrifice battery life. Your input has given me hope, going to give it a try now.

I'm sure you know S2U2 is up to 1.50d now, is there a reason you are still on 1.45?

back to the thread...

KK, what can we expect out of 1.8...1.7 is awesome, but I read earlier you were planning on waiting for something off of the TP2...

1 and 2 I am having the exact same issues, if i try and insert a new city into the weather db it blows up with sql access deny'ed errors and the action screen is not working for me either, get signature error like you.

Re: [2-24-09] KK's Loaded ROM v1.7 Sprint and Others [OS 5.2.21015 Build 21015] [UC]
 

Nope, just discovered the new version today. Gonna try that one out considering it has a lot more options in it now, including password and reject call with SMS, although I probably won't enable that because it will conflict with S2A(which in my opinion handles calls better than S2u2.)

Also, I just wanted to tell Kevan sorry if this S2u2 discussion is off topic, but I kinda thought it was still relevant to this thread considering someone had requested it to be added and whether or not it worked on KK 1.7.

Is the Action screen working if you try to access it from the TF3D Home screen? Get the same error if I try to use the shortcut via the Programs folder, but works fine from the Home screen.

I did manage to fix this. Open Total Command and browse to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. Locate the HTCActionScreen.lnk. Click and hold on the shortcut and select Properties. Deselect "Read Only". Click on it twice so there is NO check mark there. Click on OK. Now, do the same again, click and hold on shortcut and go to properties. Click on the Shortcut tab. Change Target to "\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe", with the quotes. Click on ok. It should work fine now.
