Supercharger works great on One X - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I just figured I would throw a quick post in here letting everyone know that the Supercharger Script and Kick Ass Kernalizer by Zeppelinrocks is awesome.
This script is easily set up and runs using script manager in the play store. As far as performance increase goes my results are this:
No more "Loading" when returning to the homescreen randomly.
Much smoother transitions when using widgets and scrolling the launcher.
Phone doesn't get laggy after days of use like it did when stock.
Battery life improves (small but still noticeable)
WiFi performance improved.
Multitasking improved.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276 for instructions on how to set up and make sure to click the link that says latest files for all the scripts you will need.
I used the custoomizer min free calculator because the hp 768 is a little aggressive when it comes to multitasking since ics uses more ram for cached apps. I also used the kick Ass Kernalizer and applied the io scheduler tweaks.
Hope this helps some people. Make sure to hit zepplin and wraithdu's thanks buttons and let us know if this makes a good improvement for you.

is your ROM deodexed? if I recall correctly, his stuff really only works on deodexed ROMs. just curious, I could be wrong.

Go to original thread, click get latest files here. Download the supercharger script and kick Ass Kernalizer. Now go to market download script manager.
Open script manager and select to browse as root. Now browse your download folder and click on the supercharger script. When it opens the options window choose fav and root buttons then click save (to make it fast to get to later.) Now click run.
This script goes through some user options at first. Many times is reading instructions will get you through. When it ask you to enter an option you need to scroll up the list and find which options you would like.
When I was asked about it I went ahead and chose the custom min free values.
You can also use the 768 option but I think it is too aggressive.
After that I ran the fix emissions, detailing and the engine flush. Now choose option 31 to close the script. Then hit back.
Now browse and choose the kick Ass Kernalizer script and do the same in the options menu. This script is super easy to use.
Choose "k" when asked then choose "Y" (if you want) to apply the io scheduler tweaks.
Finally, browse to /data/ and click on 99supercharger and choose root, boot, fav and save. Exit then do the same for 98kickasskernalizer. Exit then scroll up to find the v6 folder and click on each of the scripts that were saved there : should be fix emissions, detailing, engine flush. Choose fav root and save.
Now reboot the phone.

It works fine as an oom priority changer and for the kernel tweaks. What it can't do is modify the services jar which is required for bulletproofing the launcher. That being said, The launcher hasn't had to redraw once since this script makes android better handle which apps are closed and when then are closed. Furthermore there is a new deodexing tool out that I have yet to try. Anyone who wants to try that, should be able to.upload their /system/framework/services.jar file to android.mimic.ca so that they can patch it which will allow supercharger to also bulletproof the launcher.

I will try to write up a cleaner install process when I get near a computer.
In the mean time, don't be scared, this script is fairly harmless, it really just adds to the build prop and other tweaks. Report back your mileage.

No. It has nothing to do with overclocking. It simply changes the build.prop and tweaks the io scheduler and some other stuff. Like I said, it's working great on my phone, just don't expect higher quadrant scores.

Some people with slower devices have reported that playing graphic intensive games can become laggy. But the benefits much outweigh the cons and gaming is.extremely snappy on this phone so there is no real drawback.
And as to why HTC and google don't do it: that can be said about overclocking under volting, and pretty much any of the cool **** our developers enable for us.

CM questions.

Well I'll start with what I think I'd think to be easy and i'm just not seeing it. OC daemon for aosp. I've seen it built in, but how to add to already installed ROM? Now another question. Even with pinky undervolt and the radio that I was recommended for the ROM blackice, I'm getting horrible better life
compared to when I had sense 3. Any idea on that? Thanks to any help someone can throw out.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
For the OC Daemon, I would try searching the forums for a thread dedicated to it. If they have an installable .apk for it, you would simply download that and install like any other app. If its a system app, you would have to mount /system with say ES file explorer, copy it to /system/app and then assign the proper permissions.
My questions is if there is a way to confirm that undervolts are being applied. In the blackice thread some people were saying the included tool might not be applying them correctly. Thought id make a few posts here though so I could post in the actual thread lol.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're referring to the OC daemon in ARHD I think that's written for his CPU scheduler. If you're on AOSP I would recommend SetCPU
Well with the OC daemon question, I have seen people build it into cm based roms. So I was just thinking, if they can do it that way, why not in a preinstalled ROM.

Thanks for the suggestion. After I asked I found out systune included in the rom showed the values and they are being applied.
Correct if I'm wrong but setcpu will anything that ocdaemon can do. I would just use that or choose a rom with it cooked in.
Setcpu just follows governors. the OC daemon uses governors but also has set clock and governor for screen off and on, therefore, saving battery life. Also better performance.

Oh you should maybe put that you do have to tell script manager to auto start the script that is put in to system/etc/init.d called 99supercharger.
I have to for cm7 and MIUI. Pretty sure everyone does.
To prove it stuck or not just reboot your phone, then run the install script. After it loads it'll tell you your current values and if it's working or not.

You must create the supercharger99 script and have it run on boot or the settings wont stick.
I noticed a bit of a change in speeds worth checking out
Making bad decision's one at a time.
Just to add that the script will auto run on weapon. No need to make script manager auto run anything .
Glad everyone is having success with this now

I would install BusyBox from that post because there are reported issues with other versions of it. Then just use SManager and run the script as SU.
Most of the ROMs have tweaks built in. But for tweaks specific to our device, I have some I am doing testing on now. I will probably post them this weekend. And just so you have an idea, I am on my GummyMutt ROM at the moment at 22 hours uptime (off charger) and at 58% battery. I have the launcher transitions set to cube and it just snaps to the next screen very quickly and smoothly. Boot time is also increased by about 20 seconds, and the data speeds are noticably amped up as well (currently on 3G).

Ultimately, it depends on the ROM you are on and wether or not you have the built in tweaks (liberty tweaks) turned on... Basically, if you turn on the built in tweaks after installing supercharger, you will have issues. Not-to-mention, supercharger is not specific to our device, nor are most of the built-in tweaks...

[TWEAK] Lightning Zap! Blaze Basic v1

Hello all!
As promised, here is the first release of Lightning Zap tweaks for the Blaze 4G from Team Fah-Q (formerly known as Team Kick Ass)!
DISCLAIMER:
I am NOT responsible for anything YOU do that causes damage to your device. Follow the instructions to TEE and there won't be any problems.
This version is ONLY for Gingerbread ROMs and a GB kernel that supports init.d scripts. How do you know if your kernel supports init.d scripts? There are a number of ways to check, but the best way is to ask the developer of that kernel. You can also check in the ROMofCHOICE.zip by navigating to /system/etc/init.d. If the original .zip of your ROM has an init.d folder with scripts in it, then you are good to go.
What is Lightning Zap?
Lightning Zap is a set of tweaks that I have written and compiled to make the Blaze 4G Lightning fast, super smooth, and contain excellent battery life!
What's included in Lightning Zap Blaze Basic:
Battery tweaks for awesome battery life
Governor tweaks for amazing speed and performance without sacrificing battery life
Kernel tweaks
Memory and Ram tweaks
Cleaner tweaks
Build.prop tweaks
Internet speed tweaks
and MORE!
Install instructions:
Make a full nandroid backup and then backup your data with titanium or something alike
***Download link is at the bottom of this post***
Download Lightning Zap! Blaze Basic v1.zip to pc (Can be downloaded to sdcard also)
Place Lightning Zap! Blaze Basic v1.zip on sdcard
Flash
Allow phone to set for 10 minutes after reboot
Enjoy

Do not think this works on STOCK - rooted/w cwm (looking at you update script and the actual files in the zip).
There isnt suporrt for init.d style startup scripts in stock-rooted anywhere that I could find, So your sysctl.conf will work but all of the init.d scripts will be ignored.
I'm assuming dknight7 has this support? If it doesnt then its not doing anything but the sysctl.conf tweaks on that either.
Also some of your sysctl settings have been shown to slow the phone down over several days and increase the number of reboots needed.
One specifically I saw in 03systweak:
echo 50 > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure;
This does speed up things a great deal on the short term. However it gives you a max of 2-3 days before you have to reboot your phone as it slowly begins to lag it down. A setting of 1 is less than a day, a setting of 100(default) gives you weeks without need of reboot. So people need to be notified that these tweaks are not stable, and in order to keep the improvements these tweaks provide, and you will find yourself rebooting more often.
It has also been shown that most of these tweaks do in fact use more battery. There is no magic performance improment without the use of more power on android in many cases. There are some phones where the initial config is not optimal and these tweaks would show a great improvment. The blaze 4g phones on the other hand, are so fast even at stock, and get such great battery life, I dont see why such a thing would even be applicable for them.

Thomas, I'm on the stock rom (latest update) with the rooted Kernel. Will that combo work or should I look for a different kernel to install?

What does/doesn't work:
Code:
[SIZE="3"]Everything that usually works on CM7
[/SIZE]
What do I need to run this beast? (preferred but not required):
Code:
[SIZE="3"]Suggested SmelkusMod recovery to ensure proper flashing
Partitioned SD to EXT 4 - I include A2SD which is baked in as well as EXT 4 tweaks for improved I/O which leads to better performance for A2SD. This helps apps open faster and makes everything seamless.

Looks like the EVO is picking up,not losing ground,you guys are killing it,nice work brother.Great to see more keeping the EVO alive.
Looks like i got first on this one guys,hahahaha.
If you guys would like to know about this seeder tweak app,read what the dev wrote about it...
On some (older) versions of Android, the JVM (and other components) read large amounts of random data from the blocking /dev/random device. On newer builds, this problem has been solved, yet depletion of the input entropy pool still seems to slow devices.
So, I cross-compiled rngd, and used it to feed /dev/urandom into /dev/random at 1 second intervals.
Result? Significant lag reduction!
Chrome, maps, and other heavy applications switch instantaneously, and map tiles populate as fast as I can scroll. You know how sometimes when you hit the home button, it takes 5-10 seconds for the home screen to repopulate? Yeah. Blocking on read of /dev/random. Problem solved. But don't take my word for it .. give it a shot!
This version fixes the issue some users were seeing on later Jellybean ROMs, where the UI would misreport the RNG service status.
Note that this APK is actually compatible with all Android versions, and all (armel) devices. It's not at all specific to the Captivate Glide.
Caveats
There is a (theoretical) security risk, in that seeding /dev/random with /dev/urandom decreases the quality of the random data. In practice, the odds of this being cryptographically exploited are far lower than the odds of someone attacking the OS itself (a much simpler challenge).
This may adversely affect battery life, since it wakes every second. It does not hold a wakelock, so it shouldn't have a big impact, but let me know if you think it's causing problems. I can add a blocking read to the code so that it only executes while the screen is on. On the other hand, many of us attribute lag to lacking CPU power. Since this hack eliminates almost all lag, there is less of a need to overclock, potentially reducing battery consumption.
There has been a large amount of speculation on why/if this actually improves performance on ICS+ devices.

LOL yessir! Stick around man. This is gonna be fun. More and more tweaks are being created for newer devices to run better, that in turn, they make our OG run better. Gotta love technology advancements!
Yes sir!!they are definitely blowing up over in the android forum.
Edit:you want to hear the funny thing?your the one that turned me on to the Seeder app and i was thinking i ran across it myself,until i just found your thread in general,lol.Great job on the find,now to see how good it works.
Its amazing. My thread in General is a testament to that. Mind you as of now there are no additional battery tweaks other than the Mason kernel and user ability to uc. I wanted to get this out as stock first so we can get a good impression on how well this runs without addition build.prop and init.d tweaks. I will be adding battery tweaks for better sleep states, kernel optimization tweaks such as COD and more in the future.
Everyone please leave feedback on how this is running. As I am typing this I am in awe of how responsive it is.

This rom rips, seriously! Underclocked to 245-768 and the phone still felt overclocked. Looks good and looking forward to whatever tweaks you decide to use.

Why is it that the circle time and weather widget are not on the rom like on your pics?

It is. It's a widget that I included called one clock widget. Long hold on the home screen, add widget, its the one named ocw. There are many skins you can choose from. The one I am using is chrome rings I believe. But there is a vast amount of other nice skins as well.

Everytime I think the EVO is just about forgotten, you guys show that it is still a major player in the super phone world. Thanks for all you do. I will definitely add yours to a boot manager slot of Roms I use!

Thanks I appreciate that. As mentioned this is only the beginning. I plan on learning on how to optimize this and others on a deeper level other than basic tweaks. Learned alot just looking up vm enhancement and kernel enhancements for this rom which I included.
