A question about Infused 1.5

New android user here (3 weeks) and I just got the new Infused on my phone last night. But im not too sure on what the actual differences are? I know it had a different launcher (one i didnt like because I like 5x5 icons) but thats all that really seemed different to me. The status bar looked like a diff with a diff battery icon and a few different icons. Not trying to be a downer but what is the main reason people switch over to the Infused rom???

The main features are Voodoo lagfix and sound. The lagfix changes the filesystem that the phone uses to one that is much faster which makes your phone faster and smoother all around. I'm not sure on the details about Voodoo sound but I believe it basically installs different sound drivers that make better use of the high end sound card that the infuse has, making all of your music sound better.
There are other things such as other speed improvements, removed stock AT&T apps, and new themes as well.
Basically, it makes your phone way faster and better, themes it, and removes all of the unwanted crap.

Speed I havent noticed too much yet, but it was also fast as hell before and im coming from an iphone 4 so the big speed jump from that made this one less noticeable to me. So basically it uncluttered the phone and mades a few things different so they ran more efficient and cleaner?

and is there anything special I can do now? I know it says unbranded app market so what apps are there that I couldnt get before?

pretty much explains it.
Now if only reporting the misplaced post didnt require PMin a Mod.

It was a question about the infused rom which is part of development so I figured it belonged here, sorry for the mistake

I think moto was saying that you could have posted this "in" the Infused ROM thread.
I'm on Infused 1.5 too. There are a wealthy of improvement built into the rom. See the change log for everything you need to know man.

I'm surprised this thread is still open. I'll answer the question anyways. the rom is based on the updated firmware, many people are unable to get it ota, it is deodexed which removes unneeded files that take up space, it is zipaligned(not completely sure what that really does) att bloat is removed, sensor related batery drain is reduced, wifi poling is less frequent(saves battery if wifi is enabled but you are not connected) low mem killer is tweaked(may improve performance) rfs file system is replaced with ext4 with special mount options for best performance without losing data (there are faster file systems but many don't have journaling or are not very standard), it has an improved driver for the headphone amp with bass boost and presets for recording levels and quality settings. a launcher with less lag and transparent background, cwm recovery without a need to mod 3e recovery.
basically it is a bit smoother, which may be hard to notice because the infuse runs pretty good, it has less of what you font need, and it has somethings you need made easier. and even things you didn't know you wanted but once you try it out you won't want to get rid of it

Please excuse the dbag, quite a few of them here, but there are enough helpful people that make this place usefull.
Rom developement forum is for the devs to post info on roms. I think they prefer questions in the rom thread itself or in general.
Motomudder77 , good job making newbies feel welcome. He said he was new to android. So reading the change log 100 times would do no good. If you cant post something helpful then dont post.

Ask your question in the Infused ROM thread, don't start a new thread.

[Q] Optimal cm9 performance settings?

Hello everyone,
I've been using the cm9 release candidate since it was released, and still can't figure out how to make it snappy (I was on Apex before, and found it much more responsive). I'm not sure which the performance/memory management settings the Nexus S can handle well (there are lots of other threads for other phones, but I'm not sure if some of the settings require better hardware), so I'd appreciate it if anybody could tell me what they've found to be good for the following options:
Performance settings:
- Surface dithering
- 16bit transparency
Memory management:
- Allow purging of assets
- Kernel samepage merging
Misc. information that may or may not be relevant:
- Using Matr1x kernel (CFS, v21.0 I think)
- Processor is running at 200/1200 most of the time, ondemand governor (same settings that used to give me great performance on Apex).
- Also tried running Supercharger script, but it didn't seem to change things as much as it usually does
- Fixing permissions didn't fix it
- Battery life seems fine
- What I mean by "unresponsive" is that the launcher takes longer than usual to redraw and is laggy switching between windows, apps often force close or take forever to start up, and the browser reacts much more slowly to pinches, swipes, etc.
Thanks!
tl;dr: CM9 users, please share your performance + memory management settings. Explanations not required, though appreciated.

You don't need to mess with those settings.
Besides, if your applications FC, it's likely because of:
a) instability regarding your overclock
b) instability regarding the undervolt that matr1x kernel comes with
c) the fact v21 was canned due to being judged unstable by so many, upgrade to v22
d) all of these
Cheers

If you don't know what a setting does, don't change it. Messing with the CM performance settings if you don't know what you're doing is a great way to mess your phone up.

are you completly retarded? there doesnt happen much when you change the settings there. you are talking like the settings are just for pros and he is a kid, lol. kernel samepage merging for example just "bonding" two similiar proccesses so they dont need too much ram.

Are you? This thread has been dead for almost 3 months. The OP had his answer. Resurrecting this thread just to argue is incredibly pointless.

[Tweak]Performance boost for all xperiavdevices

This is a tweak I came accross while browsing some threads on xda.What is does is it forces hardware rendering instead of forcing cpu to carry out all the renderings..This is all I know about it.
Tested this out and I noticed slight performance boosts.Games are a bit faster and all those frequent "hiccups" which we experience on tipo are reduced ,if not eliminated.
Works on phones with adreno200 gpus..
for more info and to download the tweak, please refer the original thread

Hi,
I can not make the CWM, gives error.
However I did the manual procedure:
Put a unzip file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=976632&d=1333283208 in the file folder system/lib/egl/ and deleted the libGLES_android.so from egl folder.
I changed the build.prop, as the line was not added at the end dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=m=y,o=v,u=y and recorded.
I did restart the smartphone,'ve played but honestly I do not notice improvements.
I look forward to more opinions.

Jorge Moreira

Won't forcing gpu rendering for all apps reduce battery life?

Well you are right in a way..there were no improvements in the general ui fluidity..but my claim is based on the fact that the games which I tested(dead trigger , bad piggies and offload legends) were definately smoother.Lesser stutterings
Others please try it out and post you opinions

I also have noticed slight performance boosts in my Xperia Tipo. But I'm not sure if this will have any negative effects in the smartphone, because I guess that Sony would have set down this option by default for a reason
P.D.: Yes, I'm not english and I probably I would have mistakes, but i hope for you can understand me!
edit: What i have done is enable the option in Settings -> Developer options -> Force GPU rendering

this script like supermacy?

ICS already using hardware rendering instead of software rendering for the default setting. you might feel drastic change if you're using GB based rom. however, if you're using ICS based rom you won't feel anything. anyway, if you want to do it in easier way, go to setting>developer option>force gpu for 2d rendering.

Force rendering is essential only for Old apps which don't use GPU. Forcing that will be effective only for those apps.
This will cause GPU to be running all time. Basic graphic tasks are handled by CPU very well. If there are lags then System uses GPU.
There may be slight performance improvement on cost of decreased battery life. So its better to leave it unmarked.
:good:

adrenalin engine
If you really want to unlock the potential of tipo use THIS
✔ Increase touchscreen sensitivity
✔ Less RAM usage through zipalign. | World first smart zipaligning
✔ Reduced /dbdata, /data, /sdcard usage of *.db files and faster database access. | World first smart sqlite optimizing
✔ Faster disk access through remount script (noatime, disabled barrier etc) | World first smart remounting
✔ Better network throughput from TCP tweaks and 3G tweaks
✔ Tons of prop tweaks
✔ Overall Better Performance and Battery Life
✔ Less lags through LMK Tweak and Various VM Tweaks
✔ Faster SDCARD Read/Write Speed
✔ Bypass website like thepiratebay.se
NOTE: There are two different zips for stock and CM..
I have been using Stock+Adrenalin for quite sometime now. It is stable.

Nook HD/HD+ cyanogenmod tweaks

Post your Nook HD/HD+ Cyanogenmod tweaks (Build.prop tweaks, scripts etc.) here, if they have benefited you in any way. Eg. improved scrolling performance, lesser lag, better battery life etc.
Perhaps these could be incorporated in the future versions of CM build. They could also benefit others who are running Cyanogenmod on their devices.
Make sure that your post contains
The version of Cyanogenmod that you are running and the name of your device
The tweak itself
How it can be implemented
Any side effects of applying the tweak, and the extent of it. (eg. Terrific performance = terrible battery life)

[Q] How to mod thermal engine file

I have seen people mod thermal engine file for faster thermal processing ,etc in this case, what i meant is the literal
file inside the bin, not the .conf, I'm trying to configure my own thermal mod right now, but still using default engine and that's bugging me, as i can squeeze out more stability as seen on other thermal mods.
Even though supporting one single device, they have different sizes and different scores.
I really would like someone teaching me whats inside, or how to code it!
PS, I asked the devs but they either wouldn't reply or just say they didn't want to spill it.
Is it compiled using something? or what? a complete explanation would be great!
