i would suggest visiting this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
i followed all the steps to the letter that the creator of that script recommended, and it worked beautifully. keeps my sk4g running very smoothly, and i too am using GOv2. so i would highly recommend it.

YO!!!!!! I just ran V6 and holy sh*t! I have NEVER seen a phone this fast! web pages load so fast its retarded! and im on gsm only, not even using 4g! if anyone hasnt run v6 yet, what the f#%k are you waiting for?

Told you hah can't remember who recommended it to me but its so boss

Alright I downloaded it, which option would I use would you say? (1-9)?
and Im running into some problems... I tried optiond 7,8 and 9 but none seem to be staying.. any ideas?

in order to make it permanent, you need a root file browser that lets you mount /system as read write and also lets you make new folders. browse to /system/etc, mount system as read/write, create a folder, name it init.d and supercharge will now be permanent. also, i run options 7 and 13.

Thanks I got it!
Actually init.d was already there, but what I had to do was use script manager and set "99SuperCharge" to run on boot and that seemed to fix it.
And okay running 7 and 13 and now waiting for reboot...
I'll edit this post and tell you what I think!
Edit:
Alright I seems to be running better!
Yes thank you for that recommendation

if you had init.d, you shouldnt need to run anything at boot. also, which version are you running? im running supercharger update 9. update 9 has 30 options, whereas update 8 has i think only ten. with update 9, if you have init.d, supercharge should be permanent. im not even on a custom rom. im on stock firmware. i created the init.d folder myself, and i dont have to set anything to run at boot.

Interesting, okay I checked and yes I am running update 8. I'll update it tomorrow and see how it goes. Since that'll be tomorrow I will post a new reply.
But yea since I'm running update 8 that explans why I had to set it to run at boot. Thanks for you help!

AJZ Hero Speedup Script

if you want a certain script added, chances are some1 else does too. if you have an idea, or find a script you want added, please either post or PM me. i take a look at this thread alot throughout the day, so i will be able to see your ideas quickly. YOUR IDEAS ARE IMPORTANT
first of all, i did not write this script, i took it from the thread HTC Hero Speedup v2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521421), which was put together by tehseano, who i must thank, however, it seems to only work for Haykuro's Hero ROM
THIS SCRIPT is made to speedup the HTC HERO rom on the g1's. my speedup script is made to work under JACman's. if tried on someone elses, you could brick your phone (although i doubt it), and i will not take responcibility for bricks
trying to use it under JACman 1.72, i couldn't get tehseano's script to work, so im going through a bunch of tweaking and editing for it to work under JACman roms (im guessing twistedumbrella's too).
currently, i'm about to release version 0.2. - released
i have fixed most of the directories and codes except for Battery fix, i have gotten the HTC camera to work, read the readme file
out of curiosity, does any1 have any preference on where i upload the files? want someplace easy and fast, so no rapidshare or anything like that. first working suggestion gets it
please do not use option #8 once it is up, it is not done yet
everything else should be good. this is made STRICTLY for JACman roms, not haykuro's, but twistedumbrella's should work, since it is based off of JACmans
____________________________________________________________________________________________
version 0.2 - http://www.4shared.com/file/113524687/c98398cd/AJZ_HeroSpeed_02.html
very minor changes
fixed the scripts
working on a battery fix
version 1.0 will be more compatible with JAChero 1.8, i expect to release that in the next few day, but this might not be possible because i'm going on vacation
_____________________________________________________________________
I ACCIDENTLY UPLOADED THE BAT AS A TXT FILE. im not gunna change it, so until the next release, just rename the file as a bat
0.1.5: http://www.4shared.com/file/113343120/6c89dd65/AJZ_HeroSpeed_015.html
i must thank dpgc213 for creating the original lockscreen change bat file
Changes:
deleted option to delete pc sync, causes bootloops and doesnt exist
added possibility to change the screen lock image (although doesnt have to do with speed)
added quick directions for changing the lock screen image
____________________________________________________________________________________________
version 0.1 - http://rapidshare.com/files/247165073/hero_speedup_2.0_AJZ_0.1.zip
here's a mirror of 0.1 http://www.4shared.com/file/113320662/7e513586/hero_speedup_20_AJZ_01.html
in version 0.2, expect to see support for the deletion of htc sync, and support for changing your lock screen
can you please include instructions for mac users? thanks good work
did you get it to work with JACman 1.72, you said you would try to tweak it, but did not say if you were successful?

When I ran option 3, 6 and 5 in that order without a reboot and then reboot after I did all those I got a bootloop, when I did #5 it was saying success on each one. If I installed dextop-wrapper awhile back like weeks ago do I have to install it again because I didn't install it. I figured I still had it.

Yes.
That's what I'm using ti with. And it's made Rosie completely usable for the first time for me.
Has anyone had the experience where Rosie was really fast when first optimizing using whatever procedure but then lags down over time? That was what I experienced when using a different optimizer. Hopefully this one is consistent.

[ROM] NFX-Shift STOCK Version 2.0 deodexed/odex updated 3/19/11

Updated: 3/19/2011
NFX-Shift.Deodex.STOCK.V.2.0
NFX-Shift.Odex.STOCK.V.2.0
This will not wipe your data, ALthough always best to start fresh!
- [Kernel] [GPL] Sense 2.6.32.21 OC/UV 1.51GHZ (CFS-Smartass-TUN) Thanks to bcnice20
- Default CPU clock will be 1.0ghz with ondemand , changable thru setcpu or if you want to edit the kernel directly. I have never been a fan of the overclocking apps as once the system is boot they need to wait for the SU to grant permissions for the settings. this way it is from boot.
Remove the script below to use setcpu
If you would like to change the defaults in the kernel just look in system/etc/init.d/ 80screenstate_scaling
echo 245760 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1209600 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
System Currently boot at 1.2 ghz with the script. if you have issues with this speed remove the sript and reboot. This will allow for the settings in the kernel to boot at 1ghz.
- Unlocked 3G USB tethering & Sprint Hotspot - no need for any other apks aka wired or wireless tether
- Read ahead fixed to 256k for the SDcard (speed fix) - should increase the read times from sdcard
- 5meg limit on the mms
- Tweaks for the system to increase overall performance
- 4 in 1 menu w/hibernation (photo at bottom of post)
- Fixed 1x / 3g to be accurate
- zip align apps installed on data automatically
- Annoying ads in programs are blocked
Added:
Astro File Explorer
Titanium Backup
Updated:
Sprint VVM
Maps
Market
there where other just cant recall them
Ok, If you experience issues please in your post list the issues clearly so I wont miss them. I would perfer maybe list them first then explain them underneath.
Thank you!

good deal nand welcome to the shift. ha ha. bout to test this out know. ive tried out some of your hero stuff and seen the good work you've done.
I did a full wipe before flashing, and it booted up, but does not seem to have a functioning launcher. If I turn the screen off, and back on, I see the lock screen, but swiping down results in a black screen.
Make sure you have cache wiped too, sounds like maybe a corupt download.
I've been running this for four days and have not had a single hiccup.

if you can could you get me a ddms or logcat while booting so I can see what may be causing this issue for you.
As I said previously I dont have amy shift yet so I can only possibly track down the issue if you can grab a logcat or ddms report of the issue.

I apologize, I already did a nandroid recover. Everything went through fine on the logcat, but after boot it kept giving me an error in regard to wakelock not responding. I probably had a bad download. I will try again this weekend (have to go meet the wife right now) and let you know the results. I am really excited to run this, so I am sure I can get it to work eventually. Thanks a lot for your work on this.
Running well for me, and I'm using bcnice20's oc-uv sense kernel with it ... albeit according to quadrant a little slower than the stock odex rom with the same kernel.

Well that is great then considering odex vs deodexed, cause we all now that there is about a 15 to 20% loss with deodexing a rom. Once I get my shift I will odex and really get into slimlineing the rom, just like the HeroC
Man it is great to see you here!! When I sold my hero, the guy wanted to keep your ROM that I was running on it. Paypal is about to see some action once I try this out.

Any way to add the power widgets like CM6 had on the pull down menu? I loved having all my stuff soo easy to turn on/off. Usually I didnt like Sense because it slowed down the phone but the shift is super fast with it. I'm looking forward to the odex version your planning on making. Thanks for your hard work!

I am new to all this rooting and installing new roms, so please bare with me. I have downloaded this rom twice to my computer, but can not get it to install on my phone. I have extracted the file to my sd card, did a data wipe on phone, went to install zip from sd, but cannot "find" and install new rom. Any suggestions? At least I have found out how to do recovery.

[Script] Make your Sensation FAST V6 Super Charger! The ONLY Android Memory fixer

Just like to share! This is not a Tutorial!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
I installed the Kickass Kernel Tweaks and the Super Charger script.
My Sensation at latest InsertCoin ROM is now faster and snappier as before! It boots faster and if it booted there are no laggs! I can use it from start without laggs.
Option 9 saved 50MB RAM for me!
Need´s more testing that the DEV´s include this in our ROM´s!
Its just great! The Thread dont lie! Its a "new" phone ;-)
Before: Long Press Power Button there was a noticeable lag in the Animation. That is now gone!
I used these scripts
1-V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9beta1.sh.txt
2-3GTurboChargerInstallerUpdate2.sh.txt
3-98KickAssKernelTweaksInstallerUpdate3-NO_IO_TWEAK (safer)_test.sh.txt

[Scripts] The Legit Zip (Feb 8, 2012) & Nifty Coniptions Tweaks v1.01 -

For the newest tweaks, see post #2. Will have links and info there.
Here is a flashable zip of 3 scripts that when put together speed up your phone and make it faster. I did not write these scripts, I just edited them to work like Car-O-Dopes tweaks. It basically has the same values as Car-o-Dopes tweaks. I used the S97ramscript, KickAssKernel, and 02sicktweaks but I changed the values of each script to match what Car-o-Dopes tweaks do, and I wanted to share this with you all because it makes installing these tweaks easier and faster. Thanks to zeppelinrox for the kickasskernelizer, Juwe11 for the S97ramscript, Smokinl1337 for the 02sicktweaks, coffehandle for giving me the idea when he made his own tweaks, and Car-o-Dope for coming up with the ultimate combination of out-of-memory settings and sysctl tweaks that make your phone smooth as butter.
I use this on my HTC Evo 4g running Shooter E3D, with AnthraX kernel and it works like a charm.
Just incase anyone is wondering what this does for your phone, it can make it run a lot faster, smoother, and a whole lot better. It could possibly increase battery life as well.

Thanks to coffeehandle for update-script, now there's no need to mount /system and /data. When using either of the two updated scripts below, skip steps 9 and 11.
Sense Version (skip steps 9 and 11)

Flash at your own risk. I am in no way responsible for anything that happens to your phone.
Instructions: Follow Exactly
1) Make a nandroid backup incase something goes wrong or you want to revert.
2) Download a file manager like Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (I use Root explorer).
3) Open up root explorer and go to /system/etc/init.d. Click on the "Mount R/W"(that way you can delete files).
4) Delete any or move to a folder on your sdcard (incase you want to revert) any ram scripts or ram tweaks you may have that is in the "init.d" folder (examples of ram scripts or tweaks are 01sysctl, 06sysctl, 02sicktweaks, S97ramscript, 99supercharge, and 98Kickasskernel).
5) Also if you are running v6 supercharger, you need to un-supercharge. If you are running Kickass Kernelizer, you need to un-kernelize and do not run those scripts while you have the niftyconiptionsscripts installed.
6) Uninstall any ram manager apps or task killers and do not use these.
7) After you uninstall all of that, reboot your phone and verify that none of the scripts you had before are still installed. (it will mess with the scripts you are about to install).
8) Boot into recovery (preferably Amon Ra).
9) [ONLY DO THIS STEP IF YOU ARE USING THE ORIGINAL TWEAKS] Once in recovery, you need to mount /system, then mount /data.
10) Find the niftyconiptionstweaks.zip you downloaded and flash it.
11) [ONLY DO THIS STEP IF YOU ARE USING THE ORIGINAL TWEAKS] After you flash the zip, go back and unmount /system. Don't mess with the /data because after you flashed the zip, it automatically unmounted the /data for you.
12) Reboot phone and enjoy. Let your phone set at the lock screen for about 2 minutes, unlock and let it set for another 2 minutes to let it settle in. Your phone will become dramatically smoother after about an hour.
To see if the settings stick, in root explorer go to /system/etc/init.d and see if you can find the scripts. For a double check, download Rom Toolbox, go to the "performance" tab then check the "Auto Memory Manager" and see if it has values of 6,12,55,70,85,100 and "Sysctl tweaks" section to see if it has the values of 4096, 70, 50, 50.
If you're having trouble getting the settings to stick, double check that you've done all the instructions and if you have, download Busybox Installer off of the market and change your busybox to 1.18.2. Remove the scripts that may have been installed when you first flashed these tweaks, reboot, reboot again into recovery and flash the scripts.
Nifty Coniptions Tweaks
Updated niftyconitpionstweaks. Install just as you would before and follow directions as posted above. I got rid of some unnecessary settings in the scripts. Also your sdcard read ahead speed will change to 512kb which is the optimal value for the evo.

Here is The Legit Zip I just put together. This has the same settings as the V6 Supercharger on option 8 and the Kickasskernalizer. I did not change any values to these so its the same as installing those two scipts manually. Again, I did not write these scripts, I just put them into a tweak bundle to make it easier to install. Thanks to zepplinrox for making the V6 supercharger and the Kickasskernalizer. To install this, follow the same instructions in the first post and remember to skip steps 9 and 11.
To see if the settings stuck, download Rom Toolbox Pro and go to the performance tab, Kernel tweaks or Sysctl Tweaks (depending on what version of the application you have) and see if it reads as Min Free KBytes - 4096, Dirty Ratio - 95, Dirty Background Ratio - 60, VFS Cache Pressure - 10. Then go to the Auto Memory Manager and see if it reads as 6,12,150,165,180,200.
If you would like me to add another version of the V6 Supercharger just let me know.
Have fun and hit that thanks button if you like it.

oh bah i swear once i decide to flash something else new stuff comes that i wanna try out. any thoughts on flashing this after a fresh(i dont mean the fresh rom i mean new) rom install? just do the rom and setup and reboot then or think its ok to flash right after the rom (obviously following instructions as above after step 8)?

You should flash the rom and boot up because remember you need to delete any ram scripts or tweaks that may be built into the rom itself and also so you can be able to tell a difference after using these scripts if you like it or not.

You mentioned in the OP that you were running the Antrax kernel... I thought it didn't support init.d? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I remembered reading that somewhere. If it does, then that's awesome cuz I love that kernel.
It's works for me. I've also got the most updated kernel he released. I've never heard of it not supporting init.d

Then obviously what I read was misinformation. It doesn't make sense to create a kernel that doesn't support it. BTW, this little tweaks zip you created is awesome. Thank you for your work sir.
wow i did the exact same thing and was thinking if i should post it
EDIT:
OP, if you want a better update script let me know. You wont have to do all that mounting and unmounting
Damn, this probably wouldn't work well with unvisible tweaks, I think it also has the ramscript, but if it does then wouldn't it just replace what was made before, so I wouldn't think it would cause any problems.
We need a BULK tweak zip that has all of these tweaks already in it, **** even include vipermod and v6 supercharger, oh my would that be a amazing all in one script.

you dont need to use v6 with a ramscript. Its redundant.
Even though it does have other cool options

Yeah ill give it a try.

To check if they flashed use root explorer and go to ect\init.d or system/ect/init.d

Exactly like evo4gnoob said. You can also download Rom Toolbox, go to the "performance" tab then check the "Auto Memory Manager" and see if it has values of 6,12,55,70,85,100 and "Sysctl tweaks" section to see if it has the values of 4096, 70, 50, 50.

No Difference in Supercharger V6

Has anyone tried the supercharger V6 on the sidekick 4g? Is it me or do I just not notice nay significant difference on the sidekick 4g? My friend has tried it on his Galaxy S2 and I have noticed its gotten alot more snappy, but mine just seems the same as it was before.
I'm gonna second your post.. I actually wanted to ask the same thing.. I got supercharger v6 a few days ago too and haven't noticed any difference at all.. I saw some posts about people saying it improved their performance a lot. I have the widget and it seems like its working, i'm getting the right minfrees and all that.. Tried aggressive 1. but it doesn't seem to be any faster or anything.. but it wasn't that bad to begin with so maybe thats why?

first of all, you need supercharger update 9, secondly, if you are on stock firmware and running the boot script to make supercharger permanent, it doesnt really make it permanent. if you are on stock firmware, you need a root file browser that allows you to remount system as read/write and also allows you to create new folders. browse to /system/etc, remount system as read/write, create a new folder, and name it init.d and supercharge will then be completely permanent and have total system integration. if you are on a custom rom, you should already have init.d but you can check to make sure. i am running update 9 on stock firmware and i ran options 7 and 13. it makes a huge difference.

Are the instructions the same when running the update9? Do you have to remove the .pdf extension like removing .txt in update8 before running script or does it not matter? Also what rom are you running?
not sure about the pdf extension. go to the supercharge thread and look for update 9. when you download it, you will figure it out. i just cant remember. see my signature for what firmware i am on.
yeah, I was running gingerclone v2.. but it was already running smooth and not slow so maybe thats why i didn't really notice? I'm on glorious overdose 2 now though so I'm going to try again on that. I also think I was using update 7, not 9 so maybe that will make a difference when I put the right one now..
