VERY FRUSTRATING! Home Screen Redraw - Verizon Droid Charge

Im experiencing so much home screen re draw it is discomforting and frustrating ive never wanted to throw a phone against the wall. What can i do to fix it?! I know for the droid x there were some command lines that seemed to work but it causes boot loops for me here. Has anyone else experienced this!?

Download and install the tweaks using CWM from within the same gummy thread. Should fix you then.

I have the same frustration. Mine occurs when taking the phone off the media/charging dock. It takes a good 10 seconds or longer for my home screen icons to show back up. I am running gummy charged and have installed the tweak and I even disabled the dock mode but it still has this lag. I wish there was a way for it to not go into dock mode at all. Even with it turned off it still puts my phone in landscape and takes forever to return to normal when I remove it. I just want it to charge it. That's it. It's frustrating bc I keep it on my desk at work charging while I tether to my iPad but when I get a text I want to pick up and reply quickly but I can't bc of the above reason. Rather annoying.

Are you on Humble? no offense to danalo but that thing is so slow on my phone. Every single version, especially the services.jar frame work for the pulldown menu. that thing lags.
If you want smoothness try Eclipse 1.2 (not the latest)
That cleared all my redraws

Try both of these. The V6 Supercharger is easier than the Loopy Smoothness tweak, but my phone has never been snappier after using them. Plus I don't get redraws. Ever.

Can you post decent noob friendly instructions on how to install that? Thanks man

Nvm, i think i figured it out. Did you choose option 6 "hard to kill launcher"
and did you downgrade busybox to 1.82?

Option 7 has made my phone alot faster. Which one do you use ?

Personally, I use numbers 10 and 11. 11 fixes the OMM groupings. For 10 I use the following settings: 6, 8, 28, 30, 32, 36. And yes, I did downgrade busybox. I also used Zepp's 3g TurboCharger and KickAssKernel(The one without the IO scheduler, I was getting bootloops with it) tweaks plus a bunch of other build.prop tweaks. If you're interested in any of them let me know and I'll post the ones I've found to work best.

I would love a step by step tutorial for setting up the V6 supercharger as when I did it it jacked my phone up and I had to wipe and restart

I have a version of the loopy script I will be including in the next release of gummycharged FE...
Thinking about giving people an option in the toolbox to select there launcher which would then modify the script for them to match the one they have...
if you really good with this script, hit me up on a PM and maybe you take take a look at it and give your input..

Put the V6_SuperCharger_for_Android*.sh.txt file on your sd card.
Download busybox installer and script manager from the market.
Install busybox 1.18.2
Run script manager and open the V6_SuperCharger file. Make sure to run as ROOT.
Select a text scrolling speed. 2 is suitable if you plan to read all the lines.
Choose a setting. 6 is a good place to start.
Then enter option 16 to reboot your phone. (It will happen immediately)
Go back and run the script again. If the current minfrees match the previous minfrees (These lines are right under the 1-17 menu options), then the settings stuck and you're good to go!
If they don't match, post back here and I'll tell you what to do next. I just don't want to post more than necessary so that it doesn't confuse anyone else reading this.

I honestly just applied this script a few days ago. I try to read into everything as much as possible before applying any tweaks to my phone, so I'd like to think I have a decent handle on how it works.

ok so what if you already have busybox 1.18.4 installed by using a Rom with it already in it?
edit..I found it in the system xbin and renamed it with .bak at end...so I guess I can install the 1.18.2 one right?

I see the lower 2 are actually updates....so I am assuming I do the top one?
nevermind I read small print....zip is for milestone units

Are these okay to run if we have Voodoo enabled?

Just use update 8.
Yes. It'll work with Voodoo enabled. Maybe I should just make a tutorial for the charge... All of the info is in the OP, just read through it all a few times until it makes sense.

If you could make a tutorial, I would be eternally indebted!
Have you noticed a positive effect with the 3G turbo script? Does it also help with LTE?

Well I posted a brief walkthrough on the previous page. I was just thinking that this is starting to take away from the original topic.
I did apply the 3g Turbo script and made some additional changes to build.prop. It definitely increases the 3g data, but I didn't notice too much of a change to LTE.

Welcome to BLAZEROM!!!!!!!!!!!
About my ROM
My Roms goal is to have an extremely optimized and feature rich rom....i will be optimizing files until i hit my goal and just for you i will keep optimizing.

I tried optimizimg my apk files to a smaller size,the apk's did get smaller but the overall speed of my rom got slower and it started getting some fc's for some apps.
Point that im trying make is that doing too much optimization will hurt the overall performance speed-from my expirience,but different methods can have different results.Try none optimized version vs optimized version and see for youself which is faster,just givin you heads up.
Let me know when your ready and I'll put your rom though the paces.

Thanks for the support thus far.I will get V.1 Up as soon as possible.
I know you said based on Midnight, so I hope you use Launcher Pro and remove TW
i actually cannot find where the TW launcher is it doesnt say or im not looking hard enough i have a launcher entitled launcher2 but i dont see anything else not even launcherpro.

tried to do that with the undervolt...on the cwm 3 it rejected it saying that it has to be edify compatible.
i have removed touchwiz and it is going to be a launcherpro rom.i am hoping to release this sometime tonight however i am running into a few problems so we will see,mainly my bootanimation is not working and should be.
in response to BTThomas my rom is EXT4/EDIFY your rom only is EXT4 until your rom and .zips are edify compatible they won't install properly.
Perhaps if you don't know how you could message PTFDMedic as he seems to know it from the back of his hand and has done several.Thank you however for allowing me to use your .zips,etc when they are all edify complaint.

Will LauncherPro be removeable? I much prefer Zeam, because its about 1/4 the size of LauncherPro, and its updated regularly.

Does it do the same thing as Zeppenlinrox's Supercharged scripts?
No, it seems to work better - I had with zeppelin's script about 50MB free ram, now I have 80MB...awesome - my phone works so much better without any performance decrease...
Trying it now. Do you recommend using it with hard to kill launcher setting? Or just return that to normal?
This script changes memfree and VM values although I do not fully understand what the script is doing.
I've been using it for a few days and I see no changes what-so-ever, good nor bad.

Well,i used the script with zeppelinrox' script and it seems they work brilliantly together:20-30mb more ram
I don't see how it clears up RAM without removing applications from it =/ .
Here works pretty well (and it's not a placebo effect)! The phone rurs better... everywhere! )
definately works. just test loading apps and switch between to see which stay open. you'll notice too there should be smoother overall performance, for example when resuming from sleep. ive also asked the guy directly and the lower frequency of android os ram cleanouts mean battery improvements. i find it for some reason better than zepplins.
i use 6.1 and have home and mms locked in mem and this script running. with no script/zepplins id be unable to watch a flash stream, answer a text and keep the flash vid running, with this i can, its great!

it removes certain apps after sleeping when in background i think. things like maps/nav/streams stay open though
Gaming wise this script fails, cut the rope hangs and is so laggy but on normal cronos gingerbrad its good.
Apart from that this script is amazing! Get 80mb free with 2 apps running (and keyboard and services!)
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk
In overall it gives snappier performance on my stone with CGMM ROM.
I would like to try this script with MIUI 1.7.1. I flashed MIUI 1.7.1 before and got 4 reboots within an hour with all the apps sit inside the ext2 partition that cost 60Mb+ RAM. I'm not hoping multi-tasking on MIUI with this script. It will be already good enough if this script can help to run those 60Mb+ RAM background services without reboot on MIUI.
applied the script on FroyoMOD.No changes.

Apart from the aggressive minfree/lowmemory killer setting, they are all sysctl tweaks.
You can get those plus more in AOR's kernel tuning menu item.
In V8 SuperCharger, I will be using the best sysctl tweaks, 3g tweaks, io scheduler tweaks (noop) and tell android that the phone doesn't have a hard drive lol
I'll probably put in the SD card tweak with a user selectable value (pick from 1 to 3 or whatever)
That way, I don't have to assume what works best for the user and the user can screw with it lol
There's more, but I forget right now...

Well, I had stopped working on it because I kept on perfecting V6.
But it's functional with the user selectable colours and what I have added so far... the 3G TurboCharger (usually build.prop tweaks but I'm screwing with local.prop) and that Overclocker that we had discussed previously.
The Overclocker won't make the final though because it's not universally applicable but I will probably make a Milestone version that includes it or make a "Zeppelinrox's Milestone Toolbox" script lol
Oh yeah, I want to add something called "Lock 'n Load Apps"

[MOD]V6 SuperCharger for Beta 2(Works on EVERY other ROM) - Update 4/10/12

Smooth Scrolling Mod & V6 SuperCharger for CM9
Disclaimer
By downloading and installing any of these mods, you have accepted my terms of agreement. I.E Your phone gets messed up? Not my fault. Countries WAGE WAR over your phone fearing its doomsday capabilities....Guess what? NOT. MY. FAULT. *sigh* I could sit here all day and think of more cliche and childish things for a disclaimer. But I'm going to take a nap instead. Enjoy! Also, I don't claim to any of these. I am merely correcting them for our phones and releasing them to the public. I guess then it doesn't reallllly belong in development. But no one has yelled at me so let's go with it![/CENTER]
Smooth Scrolling Mod:
This mod has been deprecated. Decad3nce has informed me that it is unneeded as ICS' scroll cache kicks ass.
This mod was designed to improve scrolling performance in everything. What it did was disable the scrolling cache. The scrolling cache used by older builds of Android didn't seem to work right and seemed only store cache for apps that are used often, and also didn't make sense for applications where the window content is constantly changes(Browser, XDA, Market, etc). Wiping the cache partition also wiped it out and constant flashers such as myself are always trying something different. So all in all it was kind of useless and scroll performance was a tad better without it contantly trying to build itself. SO with the help of AndroidON's thread, I killed it!
If you want to try and apply the mod yourself, go to the thread and follow the instructions. All you really do is use smali/baksmali to decompile the framework.jar and edit /android/widget/AbsListView.smali. Specifics in the thread. Real easy to do and a good learning experience for some. Try it out!
Downloads:
This mod has been deprecated. There will be no future downloads.

V6 SuperCharger Script:
Sir!
These are extremely outdated.
Go here and scroll down down down to the bottom of the page, when zeppelinrox has placed the updated files.
I recommend flashing the Starter Kit. *And if you need to adjust your services.jar go use the web app.
HUGE UPDATE! - Mod your services.jar instantly with the ICS OOM Priority Charger WebApp!
If you weren't aware V6 SuperCharger Script is not really compatible with ICS. It just doesn't seem to do anything. That's why zeppelinrox took to finding out why and how to fix it. The result is a completely different script. Entirely designed for ICS. That seems fine a well right? Just download the new script and use it like normal...right? NO! You have to crack open services.jar in order to allow for the script to have any effect! Here is the link to the how to. It was just as easy and straightforward as the scroll mod, and I recommend giving it a look see. So what I did was rip the services.jar out of Alpha 3 and apply the mod! COOL!

I have been trying to use V6 Supercharge on CM9 and didn't seem to be getting much benefit - I honestly would not have been able to do the steps necessary to make it work - it is just over my head - so your flash file has helped me incredibly - I also never did try The other two 'tweaks' before until tonight and - the difference is amazing and immediately noticeable - extremely quick - and smooth - can't wait to see if they help save a little extra battery too - thank you very much!

All of the downloads posted here are posted in the threads above. I ask you to go to the threads and give zeppelinrox a thanks. He/she beyond deserves it.
I am also adding the links to the KickAss Kernelizer and 3G SuperCharger as well. I am using them both and it's pretty amazing. That said, the V6 SuperCharger, KickAss Kernelizer, and 3G SuperChargers will be the biggest boost you could ask for. I am underclocked AND undervolted and my phone has never been faster. YMMV but I'm still way sure.
Downloads:
Services.jar - Beta 2: Die-Hard​-Latest. Required to use the mods in ICS. This is a flashable zip. Just drag it to your SD card and flash in ClockworkMod. I ripped the updater script from EB! :tyrannosaurus: NOTE: After an Alpha update you will have to reapply this mod. THIS IS ONLY NECESSARY FOR CM9! MIUI has it built in, and V6 supports all versions of the operating system prior to ICS.
Services.jar - Beta 1: Die-Hard​Services.jar - Beta 0: Die-Hard​Services.jar - Alpha 5: Die-Hard | Bulletproof​Services.jar - Alpha 4: Die-Hard | Bulletproof​
V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC8.2.sh.pdf​
-Yes it says .pdf. That's the way zeppelinrox had to do it because the scripts got huge and the limit on .txt forced them to change. If you have a problem downloading it, right-click and select "Save Link as". You can remove the .pdf after the fact, but it doesn't really matter. Drag this to your SD card and then open it with root permissions with Script Manager. Note: When asked which speed you want to scroll at it gives for options 1-3. You can STILL choose 0. Choosing 0 will make the script run at top speed. This is useful for people who open it often. After initial setup scroll down and you should see 30 options. There are three pertaining to "512 HP". Choose one of those options. I chose option seven for example. I also turned on the "Nitro Lag Nullifier" experimental option. I have seen no ill effects. Only good happy rainbow effects. There is also SuperClean! Which just wipes your dalvik-cache and reboots. It's prompted, but you can say no. Which is probably for the best considering there is no shutdown. Instant reboot. Which can kill data. So yeah YMMV. Be careful. Make a nandroid! NOTE: After an Alpha update you will have to reapply this mod.
KickAssKernelizer_Tweaks_Installer_Update_3_RC8.sh.pdf​
-Again .pdf. You can remove the .pdf after the fact, but it doesn't really matter. Drag this to your SD card and then open it with root permissions with Script Manager. Run this AFTER V6. Let it does it's deal. Follow the script and click type I to install when prompted. I said yes to the I/O tweaks with no issues. It says that it may cause boot loops AND it may bork bluetooth...so keep that in mind Fixed! Go ahead and check out the I/O tweaks. But still make a nandroid! NOTE: After an Alpha update you will have to reapply this mod.
3GTurboCharger_Installer_Update_3_RC8.sh.pdf​
-Also .pdf. You can remove the .pdf after the fact, but it doesn't really matter. Drag this to your SD card and then open it with root permissions with Script Manager. Run this AFTER V6. Let it do it's initial intro and then you will see eleven options. I chose experimental 1. But you can choose whichever option you think sounds best. The lower the number the better battery savings(1 being the best, 5 & 6 being the worst). Make a nandroid! NOTE: After an Alpha update you will have to reapply this mod.
I recommend upon installing Script Manager to immediately activate root permissions by going into Menu->Advanced->Config->Browse As Root.
Failsafe:​ Flash this if using the I/O tweaks caused you to boot loop. It shouldn't happen as it has been updated. But this should fix it without you having to use nandroid if anything does go wrong.
All in One Package: Die-Hard​-All three tweaks, the services.jar, AND the failsafe all in one neat package. tweaks and failsafe will be placed on the SD card under folder name "ACS_V6SC". Follow the individual instructions above for the V6 SuperCharger, KickAss Kernelizer, 3G SuperCharger, and KAK failsafe.
The All-In-One DOES NOT WORK WITH AOK-FREAKING-P!!!
Having any issues? While I urge you to search through the thread for your answer if you need help with something post with the kernel, Alpha version, theme(if any), and the steps you took to install and try it. If the mod does not work the first time it could have been a bad download.
Do YOU have a speed mod you would like to contribute? Contact me! Leave a comment! Whatevs.
What exactly is the change you made in this?
Doesn't really help but do notice a small amount of difference. There's still that odd snap scrolling in scrolling through xda

I got the same result when I first installed the zip, but then I let my phone sit for a while as I watched some YouTube videos on my computer and when I began using my Epic, I noticed major improvements. No lag at all now. I've tested the scrolling in the xda app, Twitter feed, Facebook feed, browser, and through all my songs in the music app. Everything is smooth. I'm not sure if this is the mod working or not.

I actually did not create this mod. I'm just sharing it. In fact, I'm not really sure who made it. I saw it in this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342047&page=402 post #4014
Huh. I guess I never figured to make a thread for this!
I will make a github page with the changes tonight.
EDIT: Github is acting up like you wouldn't believe. I found the original thread that EB then I pulled this from. So all credit goes to AndroidON. It's incredibly easy to do.
Has anyone tried running the SuperCharger script instead to try and fix the lag? Personally I haven't but I'm curious to know if that may help.

I kinda like the snap scroll tbh. Haven't really seen "lag" in my scrolling yet though, so maybe it's more annoying for those experiencing it.

I'm running it now.
But to be honest I wasn't experiencing any major lag in the first place. Even with 10 apps open. The scroll mod is for annoying stutters while scrolling.

Alright but I'm just curious to know if it feels faster. I'm on cm7 now, not switching to cm9 unil I figure out how to get rid of the phantom voicemail notification (I'm not activating another device and all that stuff)

I already tried to contact sprint about this to clear my voicemail inbox, but instead they got rid of my 3G, so I had to go back to a ei22 rom to reactivate my phone, only to learn that the voicemail never even disappeared even when I asked them to. So how would I go by blocking this stupid voicemail? Ik its small, but it is persistently annoying. I'd rather have it just not show then to actually be fixed at the moment, similar to just turning off voicemail notifications in CM7.
Updated for Alpha 1.
Check the OP you all plural!

Same here. Agent insisted the android visual VM was the same box as those on other phones but cleared it for me anyway. It didn't work.

I used super charger with the mod on cm7 with great results, about to try it on cm9. I'll do supercharge first, then add smooth scrolling mod n tell you what Ithink. First let me play with cm9 for a bit to get a feel for it.
Updated for Alpha 2.

Playing around with the ICS Leak

This isn't a guide to help get ICS up and running, this is for the people that already have it up and running and would like to tweak it a little while we wait for the devs to finish working there magic
*Perform a nandroid backup in cwm before applying any tweaks, just in case something goes wrong!!!
So far I have been able to get a few tweaks working for the leak, all by using the app Rom toolbox pro. Here's what I've done so far.
1. Edited the build.prop to change the lcd density from 240 to 200 for a much crisper look. ( Note: you can change that value to what suits you best....160,180,etc...)
2. I also added a few tweaks to the build.prop for possibly better battery and responsiveness ( for example, increased wifi scan interval to 180, and add ro.telephony.call_ring.delay=800 for less lag when dialing out, there is many more just search for build.prop tweaks in the search bar.
3. Used the app manager part of rom toolbox to zipalign and fix permissions for all system and data apps
4. Increased the read/write speed of the sd card to 2048kb from 128kb.
Still playing around with the phone seeing if it needs anymore tweaks, personally i don't understand how i can make it any better but ill try. Maybe i'll try to see if I can get V6 supercharger running on the phone later.
If anyone else has been tweaking their phone and can add to the discussion, please feel free to do so!!!
tomorrow I figured out that it enabled time travel.

[THEMES][TWEAKS] Pimp My ROM

Hey bravo users, I was just browsing through LifeHacker and I found an article about Pimp my ROM. Taken from the XDA post, "Pimp my Rom is an aroma-installer based script that will allow you to choose between a plethora of nice tweaks, mods, apps, themes and features to add to your current rom." Here's the xda post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908269. I'd tell more you about it but I would do a poor job, so just visit the post.
It apparently works with the Defy roms, so it might work with bravo roms as well. I guess I could try it and let you all know if it works. If I do install it, I will edit this post with my results.
Edit: it installed fine, and the tweaks I added work great too! I should mention that I'm using skeevy420's cm7 kang. I recommend it.
some people were reporting that the text on the aroma installer was hard to read. did you encounter that at all?

Nope, the text was just fine. One caveat is that you had to use the volume buttons and power button for selecting everything, but that was no problem.
On another note, I ticked the tweak for faster wifi connecting, and it seems to be working. I also ticked the "faster app loads" tweak and I think it's working, but it's hard to tell since cm7 is already lightning fast. I think the "higher jpg image quality" tweak is working too.
I've been using my phone for about 7 hours today and I've noticed no problems so far. I'd like to know the results from running PmR on JB or ICS, just so we can be sure that it works 100% on Bravo. I might do that later on my PA and ICS nands. Happy tweaking!

weird, I didn't have to use physical buttons.
I'm on Quarx's 9/12 cm10. These are the tweaks I selected:
-better battery consumption
-better jpg image quality
-better camera recording quality
-battery savings
-faster scrolling
-better touch responsiveness
-reduce dialing time
-misc 3g tweaks
-deeper sleep
-smoother online video streaming
-faster wifi connect/disconnect
Everything is pretty responsive, may be just placebo, but hey it works on JB :good:
I tried using it with skeevy420's miui pikachu port and my phone wouldn't boot. It's possible that I selected settings that conflicted with the miui aroma installation settings. I don't recommend using PmR on Miui.

I used hdpi for my cm7 and cm10. It also worked with PA.
For Miui, I think I forgot to 2nd boot miui properly before I used PmR and that may have had something to do with it. I will try it out tonight to see if rebooting immediately aftet installation will provide the solution.
*edit
I've been using miui for a few days now without installing PmR. I still have no clue what the issue was, but I'm very happy with skeevy420's miui pikachu port without PmR. I suggest you try it if you haven't.
Pimp my Rom is very nice my GPS and scrolling much better:thumbup:

I've been messing around with PmR for the past few days and its great, for the most part. Not everything is compatible, one of the options breaks wifi, and some of the default values it uses aren't the most optimized for the Bravo. Also found a bug with its dns tweak -- it forgot to put a # in the build.prop before its name.
I'm trying out the "high" settings for multitasking, and I think I need to go one step below on those options -- a bit of lag occurred that medium didn't have. Medium worked better with V6 as well. The GPU tweaks don't matter since our CM7 is already fully hw accelerated and the GPU frequencies can't be scaled (yet, kernel limitation). Also noticed some of the sqlite tweaks don't work as expected (tons of errors in the boot logs).
On a side note, I'd rather CM7 have the custom kernel instead of CM10.

No, I'm gonna try and figure it out today. I applied every PmR tweak that I didn't think would break the system; apparently one did :silly:.
UPDATE
The wifi issue is from the tweak Connect and Disconnect Faster; delete the line "ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay=1000" from the build.prop to fix it.
