Hello everybody,please give me some use feeling that i can improve my software.
It is my understanding that this is not useful for Android 2.2 and above, since it includes its own memory management.
Android will usually keep its memory full on purpose so recently used apps are responsive.
When you load a new app, others get swapped out of memory if there is not enough room.
So is this app useful for 2.2 and above?
Useful to be able to help you more quickly free memory when you reset oom value ,the system will speed up Significantly
hi nice working so far! looking good and quick boost is really a nice touch!
my mob is running fine without any problems so far.
like whitelist, a blacklist would be helpful! and the memory is not going beyond 120! when using other memory tools such auto killer memory or minfreemanager I can tweak upto 250! I think you can give option like save as custom preset and then use it.

This isn't like a typical task killer. This looks the same as the very popular AutoKiller. It tweaks Android's built-in memory management. You can read technical details here http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/details

If you can get root, and setting successfully, the system will help you free memory. the system will kill some empty applications when you run many applications.
auto launcher is working for me!
but everytime I open I have to click request root permission! is there a way to remember my selection! once I press request root permission it should remember.

Busybox allows you or programs to perform actions on your phone using Linux (copied from Unix) commands. Android is basically a specialized Linux OS with a Java compatible (Dalvik) machine for running programs. The Android kernel is a modified version of the Linux kernel (that is why the Android kernel must always be open source). Busybox gives functionality to your phone that it does not have without it. Many programs, especially root programs such as Titanium Backup, require busybox to perform the functions of the program. Without busybox installed your phone is much more limited in what it can do.
I made sure I thanked you. Always been wondering what busy box is. Just wondering u need busy box for root right?

BusyBox: The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.

you do not need busy box to have root.
But many root apps as well as settings in custom roms use busybox to run the scripts that make them work. so while you can root without busybox you are very limited as to what you can do with it.
so while you dont need it to have the phone rooted. its still prety much needed to take advantage of that rooting
Wow, I learned more in this thread than in many others combined. Thanx!

I still can't follow what is the meaning and use of busy box. Can anyone just tell me in simple words what it can do???
As already earlier stated in the thread, Busybox is light like a Swiss army knife, on the other hand you have a heavy toolbox full of tools with one tool for one job.
If you don't need full options, Busybox fits your needs. If you want full options from a utility, make sure you have that utility installed.

ROFL, that is the best joke in the whole forum :laugh:
Let me put some life in this thread.
In the most simplest words, BusyBox doesn't provide a UX(visual appearance) but works inside and makes your phone more compatible for root Apps. It increases the functionality in simple words. So install BusyBox if you have root, even if you don't know what it does. The Apps you would use in the future may require it. It has no harms (am I correct?)
OK, I get it; however, I am wondering if I should consider it normal for BusyBox to be running random scripts in my router? I'm no IT, but some of the logs I am seeing look kind of odd. Is this SOP for - say Android on TMobile?
Here's what this thread is about...the Sidekick 4G has a lack luster of performance in regards to speed...so I have a proposal.
Everyone shares tips to speed up the Sidekick 4G...after a brainstorm and some testing..I will compile the best tweaks together and put them into a thread and give credits to the appropriate people! Everyone feel free to join in, don't think any idea is a bad idea, just post it!
1. Tegrak Overclocking on Bali 2.2 at 1.3 GHZ (Generic Ginger 3.0)
2. Using Supercharger V6 Script
3. Use a good launcher (LauncherPro, Nemus) Customize all memory settings for the launcher in the launcher's settings.
4. Flash the Blaze 4G Modem
5. Uninstall the factory default Swype using Link2SD and install Swype Beta
6. Fix permissions on a daily/weekly basis depending on amount of usage
This is the basics of tweaking that I have applied to my Sidekick to get a boost out of performance. Share yours for everyone to use, and brainstorm.
Edit : This research is going to help me compile and cook a ROM. So helping out here, helps out everyone else in the long run.
I'm still on GOv2 now till I get my phone back, but at 1.2ghz along the tweaks I found in other forums this device is totally lag free for me just as long as I keep it optimized. My only issue is ram, I wish this device had more ram.. my low budget Androids actually BOTH have 512mb of ram, and after killing all running apps on those I usually end up with around over 300mb of ram, the Sidekick usually drops to below 100mb in no time and when freeing up ram I never seem to get at least near 200mb.
Anyways.. back on topic, I'll try to find the links to those tweaks so I can share them and give proper credit.

Unfortunately, everyone has mixed success with overclocking on Glorious Overdose V2. If I so much as touch 1.2 GHz, I'll freeze within minutes if not instantly.
Overclocking on GOv2 is hit and miss for me. Sometimes, it can go for about a week on 1.2, or like this morning, it'll crash and shut off. I almost did not wake up in time for work. lol.

Yeah. Which is why I'm trying to also dev like Adjust is, but I'm a beginner. I'm trying to find the Bali 2.2 Voodoo kernel right now so I can get started.
The Bali 2.2 Voodoo kernel is overclockable to 1.3 GHZ (stable) so if that's the case, just being at 1.3 is a huge speed increase, and then implementing the tweaks into the ROM.
it doesn't matter what the kernal allows for clock speed, every phone is different and some can't overclock at all without crashing

True. But at the very least we can try.
Try this and see if it does anything for your device. Just remove any prior init.d scripts you have on your device as these may actually conflict with each other.

cool deal. I was away from the SK for a long time, but isn't the Platypus_Egg kernel basically the Bali kernel adapted for the KJ2 ROM base?(correct me if I'm wrong about that) in which case, you can use the zImage from GOV or GG ROM. I guess it depends what you are gonna use as your base. for KG2 there was a flashable zip for the Bali kernel here and on Rootzwiki... but they might have been posted to Multiupload and not working anymore.
I am running the KJ2 stock ROM with Platypus kernel taken from GG, and it's running great. I also tried to build the kernel from the source we have, and it seemed to build with no errors, but I couldn't get it to boot on KJ2.

oh cool, I have a 2nd SK in my possession right now, so I could flash it and test it a little bit if you'd like. wouldn't be able to flash it until tonight tho.

Sounds great. I need all the feedback and help I can get.
1) Back up data (you will see why, below);
2) Make a list of all installed apps and their source (Google Play, Amazon, etc.) so they can be re-installed later (you will see why, below);
3) Perform a Factory Reset (this wipes all data and installed apps and brings phone to a "like-new" state --this is reason for steps 1 & 2)
4) Install a Task Killer. Easy Task Killer Advanced works well for this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobo.task.killer -- this not only kills background tasks, it also keeps a record of what is killed so you can easily keep a record of what apps keep re-loading into memory.
5) Root the Phone (help on this is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1128); This allows access to the phone storage area where you can remove bloatware apps (like DriveSpace) that continually load in the background, eating up valuable resources.
6) start removing apps (again get help from the XDA forum for guidance) try MOVING an app (especially those from step 4) from phone storage to SD Card, then reboot the phone. if the phone starts working in a weird way, put the app back. Keep trying this with different apps until you are satisfied.
7) start re-installing apps --try only installing the apps you really need. move as many apps as possible to the SD Card. if a non-essential app forces install in Phone memory, uninstall it. only reason to keep an app in phone memory is to use its Widgets.
I have done all of the above on my own Sidekick 4G and the phone works much smoother.

For #6, do you have a list of apks you successfully removed. I removed a lot, including the logmein services and any apk with the word "test" in it. I have tried removing some others that I think I don't need, but many cause problems. I wish we had a list of all the removable junk (or that ROM cookers would just remove more apks from the system then they do)
For #7, I have to disagree. Apps load faster from phone memory for me, even with a Class 10 uSDcard. Phone boot up is faster (media scanner is much faster, you don't get ugly icons while waiting for them to be read off uSDcard, you can run your apps immediately after boot instead of getting "App Not Installed" until the are read off uSDcard). If your uSDcard dies on you (happened to me twice) your phone remains the same (I also like having the ability to swap uSDcards on-the-fly, like if I am on a trip and have multiple cards of movies).
We have plenty of space to hold ~80 apps and that space it just wasted if we don't use it. I have actually started doing the opposite... integrating more important apps in to system. That way there is even more space on data for other apps, and I can avoid having any apps on the SDcard at all (and still have plenty of free space in both system and data).
ok, heres what im going to do in the next week or so, im going to take time to figure out what apps we dont need through testing and remove as many as possible, then i will put it up for flash. we will see if i can get the zip down to 120-140 mb in size
Okay guys,
I've tried the v6 supercharger and it didn't really help me too much. Even though I believe that modifies these files, I was curious if maybe tweaking them further would do anything.
Just got done reading this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622666
Decided to try messing with these values. The file in question is "lowmemorykiller" located (from the root dir) at sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters. You'll obviously need root and a file manager that has root and editing capabilites.
Opening this file will display 6 numbers seperated by commas. Each one of these refers to a minimum amount of memory assigned to different types of programs, processes etc before the memory manager will automatically close them.
My default numbers were:
7746,9720,11694,13742,15715,24709.
If you read the post in the link above, it will explain what each of these memory limits references. Don't change anything until you've:
A. Backed up your original file!
B. Understand exactly what you're doing (read the link above!).
For those that want to help me with this, try changing all of your values to the ones listed below. When you're done, the file should simply look like this:
2048,4096,5376,9984,11776,13312
Save these and see if it helps at all. I've noticed a bit better multitasking doing this. Most things like the browser or games are still loaded in memory when navigating back to them. I've noticed a few oddities, but overall I think its a slight improvement. Some apps still reload, but dont completely restart (such as the xda app). If nothing else, this is something we can start tweaking to find the perfect values for.
I AM NO DEVELOPER. That being said, I try to help myself and others as best as I can. Hopefully together we can all figure this out
Something to note: like the author stated in the other post, these values will probably be reset to the default values upon a reboot. This could theoretically be fixed by running an init.d script.
Dunno if this is anything or not, but I got tired of reading about the multitasking problems and wanted to at least see if there was anything we could do on our own.
PS this MIGHT be in the wrong subforum. Apologies if so mods!
EDIT: Use the autokiller app in the play store. Should make this 1000 times easier. Thanks for the (obvious) idea Tikerz! I should have known there was an app for this Make sure to check the "run on boot" option under preferences to preserve your changes!
EDIT #2: Found the default minfree numbers for both versions of the one X, as well as the stock ICS numbers:
STOCK ONE X AT&T:
7746, 9720, 11694, 13742, 15715, 24709
STOCK ONE X TEGRA:
8192, 10240, 12288, 14336, 16384, 20480
STOCK ICS 4.0.4 VALUES:
8099, 10132, 12165, 14213, 16245, 20295
These numbers are far too close to be the culprit, but there are at least two other files (that I've found) that control multitasking, as well as certain things at the kernel level. Gonna see what I can dig up...
To make it easier, try AutoKiller from the Play Store. I don't have a One X, but am curious to know if changing the lowmemkiller values would fix the multi-tasking issues on a rooted One X.
1. Those values will make it incredibly easy to run out of memory and you risk having more OS crashes by doing so.
2. V6 supercharger probably needs special mods in order to work right on ICS.
any suggestions as to what some better values would be? Like I said, I'm just experimenting until someone who knows more might chime in. I plan on continuously tweaking these just to see how it affects things
EDIT: Trying the "system default" memory settings inside Autokiller seems to be working pretty well so far. Gonna keep messing with it.

I've got mine set to 8, 16, 21, 39, 46, 52 in AutoKiller. Or 2048,4096,5376, 9984, 11776, 13312 in pages. Multitasking is slightly better, but still far from perfect. I had originally set it to 8, 16, 21, 20,22,24, which yielded a much greater improvement to the multitasking abilities of the phone, however app performance suffered in some games.

Well I posted my original numbers in the first post, but those might have been modified from running the v6 supercharger script. If nobody gets back to you ill factory restore and let ya know when I'm home later

I'm about to redo supercharger as well since I loaded 1.82. Fyi, I came across an app called no bloat that'll let you freeze or uninstall system apps and also back them up automatically when you uninstall. Other real nice thing is that it remembers these apps and creates a blacklist of apps so that if you factory reset, it's a one click to uninstall all of them again. I use to use tb for things like freezing and uninstalling but this has been really helpful.

I dunno if there are any "best" values. Just something to experiment with to see if it helps you. Try downloading the app autokiller from the play store and setting the values to the "system default" setting from within the app. These aren't actually the settings currently on your phone and they seem to help a few people at least a bit. Let us know if it helps you.

Forgive me for asking the obvious, but you've granted the autokiller app superuser privileges? The modified settings stick through a reboot just fine for me...
Maybe try uninstalling and re installing the app? Sorry man, I'm just having trouble reproducing this.

they're fine right now, but i ran the supercharger to set on boot so i'm assuming that changes them every reboot. might just get rid of the supercharger script as i haven't noticed much improvement
ah there ya go. Give that a try. I'll bet that'll be what it was. Let me know if this helps at all. This was just random (wishful) thinking, and mostly just something to mess around with to see. You might benefit from trying different values too

Please help me with this by commenting an unmentioned root application.
Please note that the following applications are NOT IN ORDER
1. Greenify - Sometimes your android battery really drains without knowing the reason. If you have experienced leaving your android on a 77% battery in the evening and in the next morning you'll find it on 42% or something like that. Well say no more, because this app can save your battery life by hibernating those battery draining applications with one simple click, or you can just put the app into Auto-Hibernation mode. All you have to do is to register the application that is draining your battery life and you'll see Greenify do its magic.
2. Titanium Backup - The free version has all of your basic needs when it comes to backing up, with the PRO version of this you can unlock a lot of extra feature. Other than that this application really does the trick when you want to back up your applications, might be the best backup app in the Play Store.
3. Xposed - Hate flashing ROMs? Want extra features on your android? Got KitKat only but want to have Android M and N features? Then this is for you mate! I mean you don't want to feel outdated right? You can browse inside it and find modules the suites your wants, from customizing your androids looks, getting extra tweaks and more. Has tons of them and i ain't joking.
4. Flashify - FLASH EM ALL! If you always tend to flash zip files, boot images or if you even want to flash TWRP or CWM recovery then look no further The FLASHify is here. uhh.. get it? no? k then
5. Boot Animations - Gotten tired of the boot animation of yours? Yes i know that you have been seeing that for years, if you want to make that animation of yours cool then download this app, it has tons of animations inside, feel free to browse em, although you ought to be careful when your about to change your animation as you might get stuck in a bootloop.
6. GL Tools - Anyone have a low end device? Need to play a High Spec Game? Then try this app. The magic it does is to simply render the game as low as possible in order to make it run faster. You can also fake your device into Tegra or something like those in order to play the games smoothly. Some people saw the changes on their game that it became faster, while some did not experienced any changes. I myself am using this and i can really tell that it does have difference than running the game without GL Tools.
7. Roehsoft RAM Expander - Gonna ask again anyone still have a low end device? Fret not my friend, this app is for you. If you happen to have a Class 4 SD Card or above then try this app. It creates a Virtual Memory that will run when the internal RAM needs to "take the load off". You'll see the difference i tell you than without this app but only if that SD card of yours is Class 4 or above or otherwise, no effect at all.
8. Busy Box - EVERY ROOTED APPLICATION NEEDS THIS AND THATS THAT.
9. Root Browser - It ain't the browser you think. Its a File browser. This app can go deep into the system whether your a developer yourself and you want to get some extra tweaks or that root of yours got into some problem. You can use this app to also edit them or put something new into the android system however you also need to have an experience at this or simply that you must know what you're doing.
10. Set CPU - Its back! Yes the developer came back (Same goes for me. Sorry for the hiatus of the thread ) Anyways SetCPU is a tool for changing the CPU frequency to the way you like. It can improve your performance, battery or you can improve both of them. I personally used this app way back and yes it really does save battery and it increases the android performance by using some set profiles.
11. Kernel Adiutor - Has some features like Set CPU but this app is packed with more. Most of the feature has of course, have something to do with the android kernel. It also has some extra features like the init. d editor (good for tweaking )
12. Amplify - MORE BATTERY LIFE! Yes you heard that right, this app blocks unnecessary wakelocks which is the culprit in draining that battery of yours. Well worry no more, just install the app and it will do the rest. Buying the other version has some extra features in which you can edit certain numbers.
13. Viper4Android - What this app does is to basically improve the sound output of the android device to make it more seemingly pleasant to your liking. Has tons of options. Check it out
14. System App Remover - App name says it all
15. Super SU - Do i really have to put the description?
Smashing that "Thanks" Button is fine
Some additional hints:
dev.wes07 said:
Rom manager --> Try Flashify instead as is provides more usefull recovery features
ROEHSOFT RAM-EXPANDER (SWAP) - really?! Costs much, may boost performance slightly. Every custom kernel will do better for free.
Root Browser (File Manager) - Use Total Commander instead
GLTools [root] (gfx optimizer) - Does not support most of the android devices
System App Remover - Titanium Backup has this feature already included
P.S. Post other rooted apps if I missed an important one.

3C Toolbox. Many many apps rolled into 1, including most of the apps mentioned already. Pro version well worth it. Also App Settings (xposed)

While playing music I remembered this must have app:
