Common Eclair ROM optimizations.

The great Eclair ROMs available have some differences that make them quite unique, and also, have some things that make them quite the same. Lol unfortunately some of those same things are inefficiencies. This thread is geared toward the common inefficiencies across the Eclair ROMs. Ill open it up with all of the optimizations I can think of and will update the first post with your suggestions. All optimizations are welcome be it apps settings or code. Its okay to post optimizations that you think are obvious because believe me, there's someone out there who doesn't know it. Don't be bashful! So let's begin.
I or no one else is responsible in any way if you turn your phone to nuclear waste or open a gateway to a parallel dimension.​
Live Wall Papers:
Beizer Curves: Blur Type works, but Blur length doesn't. If you turn off Blur The forms will move MUUUCCCHHH faster and your net sacrifice = nothing.
Earth Rotate: select BG img doesn't work. Deselect the option and the LWP as a whole is significantly smoother with less frame drop and more responsive to your touch.

Camera:
The stock camera app flat out sucks imo with poor color and a heavy light dependancy. Eclair ROMS have it even rougher with the no 3d optimization with the camera often blanking out, freezing, etc. A solution? Camera Magic in the Market. Takes MUCH better pictures than the stock app in all light, and never has those weird probs. Just don't go zoom crazy without the drivers.
Battery Life: Eclair battery life isn't bad, but with a LWP running in the BG it can get down right ugly. A solution? Overclock Widget (free in Market) or SetCPU (paid in market, free DL by the dev on XDA if you search). Both do the exact same thing. Setting the cpu to clock down to 128k while in sleep mode will give you hours upon hours more battery life! Its a game changer.

Pre ROM install:
polyrhythmic said:
The easiest way to remove unneccesary apps is to open up the .tar package and delete them before you even install the build. It gets a lot more complicated once you've installed apps in your /system/app folder. I don't release ROMs with the amazonmp3 anymore (who uses that?!), and Camera and all the livewallpaper .apk's are safe to delete without affecting your system. Only delete Launcher.apk if you want to be stuck with Launcher2.
However, Android probably won't like it if you try to install Camera.apk later through any normal method (adb install or Astro install) because it expects it in /system/app, so if you decide you want to add system apps back in the best way is to put them into /system/app (with adb, Astro, or Terminal) and reboot.

Macrophage001 said:
Well I remove these apps because they take up space which could be used for other things, and to take them off I do this:
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm Camera.apk Launcher.apk
cd /data/app
rm YouTube.apk GenieWidget.apk
mount -o rw.remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Alternatively, you could uninstall these with RootExplorer by locating the apk in /system/app and /data/app respectively

thanks for posting this ,, it just my help some of the noobs out with all the optimizations. I know it did me ,, #1 noob here

I thought making the sleep state 128 or 245 would be common sense, I see people making the min 528 which is so stupid.

bro are you kidding me? I need my LWPs to be EXTRA fast when my screen is off. Lol, look, Its only common sense when you know it. This thread isn't here to mock anyone. A noob may have discovered something I don't have a clue about. And common sense in my experience only equated to a nice phrase and an urban legend. I think big foot took the last of it.
Now I know you know some stuff that could be helpful here. Don't make me send ninjas to your house to roundhouse kick the piss out of you!

Well you could always delete youtube too.
Since the video drivers don't work and all you can pretty much remove all that stuff that uses them.
Since my camera doesnt work either and if you have launcher2 then this is what I always do;
remove
Camera.apk,Launcher.apk,youtube.apk,com.amazon.mp3.apk,GenieWidget.apk,
BARELY use LWP
If I do use LWP I would get the modified LWP by that dude (Forgot his name)

Would you be so kind as to explain the benefits of removing these apps, other than taking up space without providing functionality.
These apps can be easily removed through adb commands although imo android commander is a much better way. it's available round here somewhere, just do a search and use with restraint.

The easiest way to remove system apps is to open up the .tar package and delete them before you even install the build. It gets a lot more complicated once you've installed apps in your /system/app folder. I don't release ROMs with the amazonmp3 anymore (who uses that?!), and Camera and all the livewallpaper .apk's are safe to delete without affecting your system. Only delete Launcher.apk if you want to be stuck with Launcher2.

Well I remove them because they take up space which could be used for other things, and to take them off I do this:
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm Camera.apk Launcher.apk
cd /data/app
rm YouTube.apk GenieWidget.apk
mount -o rw.remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
dont know why but I love using the terminal so i like doing it that way then make a script or use any other alternatives.

Thanks Macro and Poly.
@Macro: what rom did you use the optimized lwp on? Trying it on CE 1.2b just deleted the optimized lwps. : /
I listed the app deletion optimization as a storage mod. Does it also affect speed?

Well, for those of you who know me, I've decided to finally give Android ROM building a shot. It's a learning process, but I'm picking up on it pretty quickly, and I must say it's a ton of fun so far . I owe my inspiration to the likes of theimpaler747. zenulator, and of course, NFinitefx45. These guys all work hard to bring you great stuff, without their advice, I'd be nothing.
I need beta testers! I've been using this ROM for some time now but I need YOU to tell me if there's anything wrong with it . Please go easy on me, I'm still learning the ropes of this stuff. Any and all feedback is appreciated! If any of you veteran ROM devs come across this, feel free to drop me some advice
Also, I need help figuring out why this version only has 107 MB of free space. Does Deodex really take up more space like that?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Who is this ROM for?
This is for a pretty broad range of people; those who are interested in stock Sense minus the bloat. I've removed a fair amount of bloat, including all the Sprint apps and a few HTC apps/Widgets that I feel are of little value. The ROM is also fully png-optimized, as well as zipaligned. What differs this ROM from my other one is that this is Deodexed, meaning it's open for a lot of the theming mods. You do lose a bit of speed compared to the ODEX, but this ROM is still quite fast.
What is this ROM's base?
This ROM is based off of Nfinitefx45's fantastic rooted .7 DEODEX release (link). While we're on that topic, I'd like to say that all the credit for rooting/getting the base of this ROM out the door is ENTIRELY credited to Nfinite. I take no credit for the rooting process, the addition of busybox, the addition of A2SD, and anything that you see in his .7 thread. Nfinite is a genius, and he has inspired me to create this offshoot of his ROM.
So what do I gain by trying this?
You gain quite a bit of speed, and with this specific ROM, you get the ability to flash third party theme zips. Don't forget to Nandroid before doing so!

Download Link
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/345001/Android Stuff/Deodexed/LiquidSense1.1Deodexed_signed.zip
Addons - I suggest you use Android Commander to push these back in.
Removed System APKs - This contains all the removed Widgets and APKs from System/App. This does not include GMaps/QuickOffice. To use, unzip it, delete what what you don't want, and either adb push it into system/app or use Android Commander to do so. You MUST use these, not the zip from my other ROM.
Removed Data APKs (Coming Soon) - This currently includes Google Maps and Quickoffice. Both of these can be DLed from the market, and it's probably easier to do it that way, not to mention the ones on the market will always be up to date. However, if you'd prefer to save a bit of time, they are here for you. They do not need to be pushed, simply drop em on your SD card, and enable Unknown Sources temporarily and install using a file manager. HINT: If you don't want to grab a file manager or want to save some time, just copy the download URL, paste it in an email message to yourself, and open it from your phone. The phone's browser will handle the downloading of the APK, and you can just tap the apk from the list of downloads to initiate the install .
Removed Ringtones - These are all the ringtones that were removed. The reason they are not in the ROM is because they are better off on your SD card, freeing up a whole 2 MB on your system memory. What I suggest you do (to avoid having to adb push all of these) is to simply make a folder on your SD card with the following path :media\audio\ringtones\ . Put all the ringtones in there, and that way, no matter what ROM you use in the future, you'll always have the ringtones in there . If you'd prefer not to do this, you can adb push or use Android Commander to push them to system\media\audio\ringtones\.
Mods
~ Go out there and find mods! When you try them, let me know whether or not they work. They will be listed here, with full credit to the author for creating the mod, and credit to you for testing it
Liquid's Tips!
~ On first startup, sign into your Google account but don't do Facebook sync. Wait till you boot into the ROM, and connect to a wifi hotspot (if you have one). Once the sync icon goes away, and your google account has finished syncing, then get started with Facebook sync. Remember, Facebook sync, at least for the Contacts syncing, happens in tiers. It'll do, for instance, A-E first, wait a bit, and then it will do F-P, etc etc. Have some patience .
~ Battery! As much as always on sync is, there are a couple things you can do to lengthen your battery life. For instance, for Google, I always leave Gmail sync on. But ask yourself, how often are you adding/removing Contacts from your Google account? I don't do that too often, so uncheck contacts. Also, unless I have major changes to be made to my Google Calender, I also leave GCal syncing off as well. Once it finishes its first-time sync, all your events are there anyway. Next up, Facebook! The big deal for me for Facebook is that I run it once and my Contact images sync together. I'm not a big user of the Live feed. So for me, once my contacts' images finish syncing, I leave both unchecked. These two tweaks will save you some juice
~ GPS! I've found that using the same fix for faulty GPS locks in CM6 in this ROM actually improves the GPS lock time like mad. Grab "GPS Status" from the Marketplace and reset/redownload the A-GPS cache. After I did this, I had a super accurate lock in under 4 seconds using Google Maps
~ Task Killers! In my experience, I've found that task killers tend to do more harm than good. My suggestion is to simply place a shortcut to "Running Services" on your homescreen, and check it periodically. For instance, GTalk Service likes to come up every so often, and when it does, I just end it. For the most part, I've done well without a task killer. Android was designed to manage its memory pretty well! Again, I know this is a debated idea, so take with a grain of salt
~ Random bits:
I've found that pressing Menu while in the Sense App Drawer and switching to List View makes the scrolling a bit faster and smoother
Not using all 7 homescreens? Make sure there's no widgets on the ones you're not using. I've found marginally better performance and battery life from doing so.

Pardon? This is the prep post for the upcoming Deodexed version of this ROM.
It will be uploaded shortly. I'm calling for any mod users and themers to test it out for when it's ready, which, as said, should be available within the hour.

I have the odex version of liquidsense and i like it alot! It's awesome... Cant wait to try out the deodexed version!

I'd like to try this

A longtime lurker here, I've recently switched from Windows Mobile to Android, but have stayed with HTC Hardware. I lurk a lot, but thought I'd chime in to test this one. Just flashed it with no problems, and it seems pretty zippy so far. I'm also hoping it solves the Facebook contacts issues with Sprint, but I won't hold that against you if it doesn't.
It's my first custom Android rom, so I'm about as basic a user as you can get. I have a pretty tech background though, and used to flash my WinMo phones all the time, so i'm not completely lost.
I'll let you know how it goes...

[ROM][V6/13/11 Phoenix Reloaded-1.1 for Mesmerize

The base is ee-19. This was not built on pick and pack or anything else. The rom may use piece of a code some where out of another rom or from some one. That I added to work. Everything in the rom was implemented by myself.
Battery Icon is only red when below 10%

The following was taken in order of stock clock to 1300mhz. On Otb Reloaded 1.6. Govenor set to performance to keep cpu from scaling down and scheduler was the defualt. Benchmarks I am not going to argue over so don't bother waisting your time. Performance may also vary as I find either otb or voltage control to be weird at times. Also these are not peaks.
What was removed:
Bloat uscc apps, Some samsung useless memory hog apps, Touchwiz launcer, Stock dialer, Stock mms, Probably some other stuff that is minor,
What was addded:
Phoenix reloaded boot animation from my desire phoenix, 100 percent charge and discharge battery icons/mods, Go launcher, Go plug-ins, Go Contacts, Go Sms, Themed menus, Themed icons, Reboot options, Puzzle lock, Themed market. Blue themed gingerbread keyboard Miui Themed music player, Superuser, Esfile Explorer, Voltage control app, Updated apps that are on the market, Updated host so adds are blocked (No need to use any type of blocker), added malware fix and possibly forgetting something else.
Tweaks done not found in any other rom for the mes:
Entire rom was optimized. This means that rendering images will be quicker in the included apps, possibly gained battery life, and a smaller foot print to boot.
Apps that receive updates or stock apps people may not like that is still in the rom. Are moved to data on boot. This means no duplicates in system or data when the app would get a update. Also means some stock apps can be removed from manage applications.
Entire rom was zip aligned when built.
Added zipalign on boot to the data partition. Why only the data partition? Only it should need done since the rom was. Google zipalign to see what it really does.
Added memory tweaks.
Added ram tweaks so the rom wasn't so laggy. It also will allow multi-tasking a bit better. You will see the quickness once installed. Also by the above screen shots. This should help with battery life also. I play to much to document the truth or not so someone will have to see. There is also some other features I may be missing out on.
Install Instuctions:
Download the following file and place it on you sd-card:http://2fastroms.com/dm_eds/download.php?id=20
Will be under install instructions.
FIRST DISABLE LAG FIX and be on ee19.
Wipe/format data followed by format system. (Even though the updater-script does this. I still get issues not doing it. Then install zip > Phoenix-Reloaded-1.1.zip
Wait for install to finish and reboot. Reboot may take a min or two so don't freak out. Once booted proceed to the setup instructions.
Setup Instuctions:
First you need to setup go sms to work right since the stock was removed. Go to it and open it. Read the little messages if you want. Then hit menu when at the message screen. Go to settings>important tips>stock sms releated. Check mark stock sms uninstalled. Go back to settings and mms settings. Set maximum mms size to 1m (Max uscc allows).
Go back to settings and Send Settings. Check mark split large messages.
Go back to the home screen. Hit the contacts icons setting it to use default go contacts. Also dial *228 for good measure. I believe this is it.
Questions:
Help I am roaming or get poor service. Try to move from the spot you are if signal is low and perform a prl update using *228. If it doesn't work try a few times with better signal till the roaming indicator goes off. If it doesn't I am not to sure what to say.
Help my data keeps going dormant. Trying to access the web you get a prompt about your connection. Only way I found to fix it was to odin 2.1 checking repartition. Then update to ec-10 to ee-19. You might get away with doing ec-10. I have yet to find the real cause to it but this isn't the only rom affected.
Support:
Official support will be at my forum at the following link: http://www.2fastroms.com So if you have a problem and I don't answer on here right away please make a post on the forum. Where one of my staff will relay the message to me.

The guys that designed the g4 icons.
Phidelt82 for the one jar file to enable puzzle lock.
Opps forgot a credit that I didn't mean to. Which was the creator of some of the blue icons and a few other pieces from the steel blue theme. I know Phidelta82 I believe did the port but unsure of the real maker at the moment. In which if someone kindly said who or they contacted me. I will add the said person.
Also for future reference before pulling something out of my rom to put in another one. At least ask first. Don't take it the wrong way as I don't mind to help or share anything. The other thing is it may not work or cause other issues depending on what is nabbed.

First!. Had to say it
Keep up the good work

Just when you think you have it idiot proof, they come out with a better idiot.

Did you flash it or just first to post in the thread? lol Thanks either way. If you flashed it let me know how it goes. I missed the icons on the power menu but I will get them when I get done building aosp.

Nice Work
Hey i flashed it and it works well only thing i see is when i switched to OTB ver 1.3 the bootanimation has the android flashing in and out while the orig us cellular animation is still running. not a big deal thou.
also the media scanning icon in the status bar is sometimes themed and somtimes not. again not a big deal.
otherwise very nice work
Edit: i flashed this in CwM2.5 then put 3.0 back on so didnt think to ask if this was amend or edify script?

Awesome, its great to see more devs for the mesmerize. Welcome

My thoughts exactly. Looks like quality work too. May through this on and try it out next day or two when I get some time. Thanks to you and all the devs for making this phone rock.
Tap-a-Talked.

I flashed this last night, also running the tw1.3 kernel, could use a custom boot animation to fix the dueling boot animation, also the launcher still seems a little laggy but everything works and looks nice, would the ec10 no clock work with this? I may just give it a whirl and check later today seems like quality work. It worked fine flashing over pnp v.5 with just a cache and dalvik wipe.

The launcher isn't laggy if lagfix is enabled. Then go to adw settings > zoom effect > set it to around 400. Then screen pref's > desktop scrolling > set to around 225.
If you still get lag then it isn't a problem with the rom but the kernel my phone runs better on the stock kernel with no lag fix. With any of the kernels I get constant force closes and reboots. Along with lag out the rear. Not talking crap about the kernels but a few reasons why it happens is the scheduler sucks and so does the default govenor. Like right now I am running otb also where my phone hates it. On the stock voltage settings. I can even lower nearly every clock by 100mv's and my phone will run fine but still the same problems as not touching the voltages.
I recommend to ditch sio then use cfq or bfq as my phone seems to like those a little better. The other is conservative plain sucks for performance. It might be better for battery life but that is a debate for another day. On demand doesn't seem to be much better really. I plan to compile a kernel and see what I can do with it.
As for the boot animation I have a boot animation made. Just can't get it to work on the mes but work fine on the desire. Still have to look at that. The ec-10 no clock I am guessing removes the clock on the taskbar? If so it should be fine. I haven't looked at it as I prefer the clock where it is .
Can someone do me a favor and go to my forum website using the web browser? Does the web browser reboot when the pop up for tapatalk comes up or is it just me? All other web sites work fine that I tried but none have tapatalk I tried.
Edit: This also doesn't you a updater-script but your old plain update-script. So clockworkmod 2.5 is needed. Forgot to put that in the first post I converted it to updater where it installs but won't boot so I have to look at it when I get time.

Tried the no clock mod and it works fine, also tried the browser and I had no reboot of it at your site, though previously when I loaded the rom the wallpaper wasn't there when I loaded the no clock mod it was. Did some fooling around in voltage control 1300oc/25uv seems to have fixed the lag issue. Also changed scheduler to cfq.

Odd it does for me As I said my phone hates the kernels we have... The wallpaper should have loaded though as it does for me. As I put it as the default in the framework. I will have to look at it though.

whats quadrant scores on this ROM at stock speeds??? trying to figure out whether this is just a different, nice looking ROM or if its a lil faster....btw...nice work...great to see a new dev on the scene!!!

Where did you find the MiuiMusic?

My phone has none of those other problems. Still running the sio scheduler with no lag and to cc or reboots. Ran quadrent and got 1650. Music player works great too.

Quad scores I can tell you in a few... As for the miui I honestly couldn't tell you as I had it for a bit. I just changed some of the colors. I think I got it on here out of a tab part of the forum.
I was actually looking to see if anyone had tried to port the file manager. Found a few ports of the music app. None worked on the girls desire. So kept trying to find on that would work right.
Edit: Just ran quad 6 times. Using I believe the kernel gas has in his rom as I haven't changed it since I flashed his rom to check out the lockscreens. My phone hates this kernel but with setcpu to set the governor to performance on the stock clock. Using cfq I pulled on the first run a 1510 then peaked at a 1598. I wouldn't expect what I did to show much in a bench but will affect image rendering when loading the apps I have installed.

You guys suck then as I am not that lucky, Guess it is time for me to due something to mine to get a new one since plastic polish and the mes screen doesn't work to well... It creates what looks like cracks if you blow on the phone or from the grease on your fingers. Pretty annoying...

Uscc has a Zach screen and phone protector so far its the best I've seen. It costs 30 bucks but is worth it to me. Its military grade originally made for field gps and radios bonds permanently to phone also includes a lifetime warrenty.

It has a screen protector now. This was the week I got it and somehow got two big scratches before I even started really using it I don't even remember the brand I got but is the rubbery type feeling one with the lifetime warranty.

Yep I've had the zagg invisible shield protectors for many phones. I was thrilled when uscc started stocking them. I'm rough on phones (just ask my wife) and these things are indestructible.

Awesome, thank you for the info. I accidently came across the first one I had and I was like HELL YAH. lol so i have not really looked at anything else. The launcher they are working on with the fascinate built on top of touchwiz so everything works. Their latest test build boot loops for me.

Got a link? I don't pay much attention to the fascinate/mess crowd more so do I on the desire.

Any way we can get this for the showcase

[NEW] Buglist for XXUBMEA I9500

1.Overheating
Improved quite a lot after the update but the issue is still here. I personally think that there is not a lot we can do through firmware updates with regards to the overheating issue other than underclocking and undervolting. So its basically hardware related as my battery performance is great.
2.Launcher redraw is almost gone but I still see it occasionally coupled with a black home screen and the homescreen wallpaper suddenly shows up. The weather widget also disappears sometimes.
3. Screen smearing issue.
To be honest, I think that this is fully hardware related and there is no fix for this issue other than the workaround that involves keeping the LEDs turned on even at black screen, like it was on the S3
4. Gallery lag when opening.
This seriously needs to be fixed. It is such a shame that the gallery app doesn't start instantly considering how even the older generation phones can do it easily.
5. Dialer lag (All famous)
6. Contact app lag
I doubt Samsung will ever fix this dialer and contact app lag. It is almost like they want the apps to lag. When these apps are not in ram, they take a lot of time to open up. Shame on Samsung! Adding features after features but still can't make your basic app to open smoothly. Even an iPhone 3G does better.
7. Ocassional Animation stutter when opening and closing apps.
Its not very noticeable now and happens a lot less frequently than before. Specially when the transition animation is set to 0.5. Maybe I am nitpicking but the issue is still there when you look for it.
Whoever gets any of these issues please keep confirming or adding any more issues I missed. All these issues are currently present in alot of brand new s4 units worldwide.
Sent from a poor GT-I9500 whose software doesn't do its hardware any justice.

1. It's just like any other high-end phone after MEA update. Nothing wrong with the heating.
2. Never seen launcher redraw, only seen the weather widget redraw.
3. Yes, it's hardware related. The screen isn't quick enough in turning on pixels.
4. Are you talking about the 1 second it takes the gallery to open? You prefer to see the picture loading when you in the gallery or wait a second? I prefer how it works now
Much better than the iPhone that sometimes even don't shows the pictures after a long time of waiting...

A possible cause of heavy lag

Developing few themes I've found out what is one possible cause of the heavy lag (and with that I mean the phone gets unusable. Seconds without reactions) I can get since when I upgraded to Lollipop. In a simple word: themes.
That's 100% certified, I tested and retested it again. In more specific details at least in my case i discovered that if the Navigation bar button for exchanging keyboard isn't properly sized - and it will hardly be since the Sony Theme Creator is messy with those particular icons - the skinner may go banana.
There are other bugs as well (try to install the same theme over the current theme), but the one above is probably the most nasty. The obvious workaround is to apply a different theme (the plain, boring stock ones don't define any asset) and maybe reboot, but if you want to see a bit more in detail if something is wrong with your current theme do the following (requires root):
- Download the Theme Debugger
- Check the size of the keyboard button in the bottom right like in those picture (left is ok, right - which is a stock theme - is an example of things going wrong) :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Open Theme Debugger
- Click on the top left menu (3 dots) and choose "Restart System UI"
Now check the size of the keyboard button again. If it changes in size, like if it is too small or too big or if the landscape and portrait version do not match (they get stretched in one direction or the other) you most likely have the issue. Inform the theme developer (with a couple of screenshots) and on the meantime use a different theme. Oh, don't blame the developer, it's the skinner to be effed up.
I hope this helps!

or... You can discover that you have a crappy app called ROM ToolBox Pro which hasn't been updated in a year and with Lollipop it went banana and set the at boot the minfree values to a ridiculously low value. The ugly thing is that there is a sort of "bug" with the minfree in Lollipop (at least with the SnapDragon 400, the Moto G has the same issue), the file
Code:
/sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
is write only (permissions "--w--w----" instead of -rw-r---r--") so the app above couldn't read the minfree values but it did write them (discovered enabling the full log in SuperSU).
Still the thing about the themes partially applies. With low minfree values the skinner did crash in the situation mentioned. Also if one updates the active theme (as in installs a new version over it) after the reboot the theme has gone (but it shows as if it was selected). Hopefully we'll get an update fixing all these little annoying issues (plus the GPS and camera fixes, sure).

Can i set rwrr for minfree?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sure, you can play with the minfree as much as you like. They are volatile files, they get recreated after each reboot (so if it gets stuck just restart the phone). Which also means that if you want to make any modification permanent you should add it in a /etc/init.d script.

Apparently I fixed once for all the lag that has been infesting my phone for months. Other than the couple of things I already mentioned (and yes, the wrong minfree was simply a nightmare), what made it more constantly fluid now has been the following: In settings do:
Settings > Apps > All > Google Play Store, Clear data and Clear cache
Settings > Apps > All > Google Play Services > Manage space, Clear all data and Clear cache
I used that as a suggestion for installing FaceBook returning error 504 (but I've found out that what really fixed the FB installation was to uninstall FB Messenger. What a piece of junk) and no, it isn't placebo effect, I waited few days to be sure. Also apparently the 787 Mhz went from a 50-50 with the 1190Mhz to a 70-30.
Oh well, I just thought could be useful to share!

Hi !
In Lollipop When the brightness is more than 25% phone starts lagging
When the phone is connected to a charger or computer is not Lag phone!
I got Repair Pc companion! But the phone's lag !
This problem can be solved???

It depends on what you define as lag at this point. If you followed this thread you see that it took me months to get a rid of the lag on my phone. Yet if after repairing the phone with PC Companion it's still lagging, either your phone is damaged or you're too much lag sensitive.

I am quite sure the ROM has nothing to do with it. Still I'm using the Custom IT version, which is the one of my phone.
But if after a repair with PC Companion, no apps, no data your phone really lags most likely you have an HW issue. Try to see if taking out the SIM and SD cards it still lags. If the phone really lags changing the brightness it may be damaged.
Then if your lag is just some nearly imperceptible micro stuttering.. deal with it. That can be normal.

I just tried to be on the phone while brightness is on 100%, and I must say it is lagging for me too.
It is not some brutal lag or idk, but it is noticeable.
Check the recording:
2016_01_24_15_30_00.mp4
As seen it is not something major, but it can be noticed lol.

The problem is that the video on my laptop lags by itself, it fries the CPU. I tried to watch it on PS3 and on my television and the codecs aren't recognized. You need a better screen recorder.
Still even with the lag induced by the player it didn't seem that bad, the apps were opening quite fast. Then it's an Xperia M2, we can't expect the performances of an Xperia Z5 (and let's forget an iPhone 6S ). Also you had to show the difference with brightness at zero to compare.
In any case, when I wrote heavy lag I meant that with the wrong minfree values I was waiting even a minute to open certain apps. That was absurd indeed. Fixed that I still had some lag, like when unlocking the screen. The sequence was jumping. Or the keyboard could take ages to load (it still does it sometimes, but not that bad). Clearing the Google Play Service data fixed that as well. But the micro stuttering when scrolling has been there since ever, KitKat included. No matter the brightness, at least on my phone. I just triple checked it now, maybe it's an optical effect. Being higher the brightness the lags gets more more evident, I don't know
Yeah, I am checking it again with brightness zero. Scrolling the home drawer's panels it micro stutters. I'm so used to it that I don't even consider it lag. Well, at least that's me.

Actually I have the same question. I've checked a bit around few days ago and in Google Play they are all getting not excellent reviews. At least the ones I've seen. Which is annoying becauseI've read the Z3 (and above, I suppose) has one made by Sony, integrated in the ROM (it was for KitKat, not sure if it went to Lollipop as well). So if you ever find a good one. please let me know.

Here check this out: https://youtu.be/j5WYd28rhi4
I installed the highest rated app "Telecine" and I must say I have never recorded a smoother video of my phone.
It was smoother than the actuall use xD
But it kinda lacks some features, like saving location etc.
Anyways here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jakewharton.telecine :good:
EDIT: After testing a few apps, I am thinking between AZ Screen Recorder (which I used before, and after enabling 60fps in settings recording is smooth as in Telecine) and Telecine.
AZ Screen Recorder is packed with all features, but I need to do some more testing. Here: https://youtu.be/64xyaASGO9M - This is a recording with default resolution and 60fps. It is smooth, really smooth.
And this is a recording in 720p, also 60fps: https://youtu.be/t_XS3ZZFZkE - Tell me if there is some difference, because I dont see it.
Altough, Telecine is simple as f***, it lacks some features.
So check those two of course.

@junk031 we are vastly off topic, but whatever...
So I checked the two video players. Telecine is quite limited and then it started crashing. I removed it immediately. AZ Recorder seems good. I liked the option to change the audio track. Too bad that it doesn't work. Unless it doesn't like my AAC format. But it did play it on the preview (just the audio).
Anyway, the most important thing is that I can play the recorded videos from my laptop without it frying. So I can do any editing from it. As I always do anyway, I hate to operate from the phone!!
