[CM10.1]KILL MEDIA SERVER[Reduce battery drain] - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

I found this trick from N4 forum(forgot where is the link maybe lola knows)
and after applyin this on CM10.1 Alpha 6 by dhiru ( thanks you're amazing :highfive: )
Installation:
1.download the attachment,extract it(IT'S NOT FLASHABLE ZIP!)
2.move it to /system/etc/init.d
3.set permission same as the other file in init.d
4.reboot!
This is not my work ​

see the attachment for screenshoot

Copied to init.d folder. Will give report soon.

Does killing media server cause any problems?
Sent from my GT-I9003 using Tapatalk 2

@MR.Volkf Done the same...nothing happened. Media server still eating..

^yes,that script didn't kill all,cause some apps may wake up the media server,but that script will reduce the media server,i think

[MOD] init.d Tweaks

So many of you may or may not know, but thanks to drhonk we now have init.d support for our roms
init.d is a folder in your system/etc area and its a folder that can contain different kinds of tweaks such as:
startup tweaks
ram boosters
performance tweaks
etc
How do i use it? simply by having drhonks 2.1 kernel and the init.d folder(with whatever tweaks you may like) in system/etc
Here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ja5t131d395blty/init.d.zip
is an init.d folder with tweaks from: darky, the bionix frost rom and the trigger rom, all in one folder
just unzip using file expert or whatever you use, and place init.d in system/etc then reboot
Thanks to:
darky for rambooster
birge and edt for tweaks
and teamwhiskey/ drhonk
and the rest of the community
Copied it to /system/etc ..rebooting

How do I tell if its working?
doesn't appear to be a folder within the archive. just the files. if i rename it, it just shows up as a file, not a folder. am i doing something wrong?
Should I...
A) create the init.d folder manually and extract the files into it
B) move the .zip file and rename it even though it doesn't show up as a folder
As above, how do we tell if it's working?
Thanks!

I went with option A and that must have been right because I have just over 200mb of ram free and the phone is just insanely fast and sooooooo buttery smooth.
thank you so much for this!

although apps do re-open almost immediately, some apps stay closed.. my phone bogs when i have alot of apps open, especially when i try to use intensive apps.
that being said i dont use the task killer much to free up memory but to kill apps right before i lock my phone- saving me alot of battery while my phone sleeps.
the article talks alot about processes but i dont go crazy with auto kill and advanced options.. bc they do create instability..
the truth is even the stock rom includes a built in task killer, as do many high end android phones, along with a task manager widget..
Just downloaded and will post my opinions asap. Thanks alot for this and for sharing it with the community! This baby just keeps getting better and i'm already woopin ass on everyone's phones that i know. Out preforms anything im coming across!
So what do we do with the init.d tweaks that r inside the folder?

One of three things:
1) push the tweaks into system/etc/init.d
2) if you do not have init.d folder create it and push the tweaks there
3) push the init.d folder from the download as a whole instead of just the tweaks into system/etc

Thanks man. I noticed the folder came with the kernel. The folder is already in system/etc. So im guessing I don't do nothing then just as long the folder is im system/etc right

You need to change permissions after pushing the apk. Then reboot and fix permissions in cwm. Then reboot and ur good.

1. I could send you a file taken from stock ROM but you forgot to provide you ROM version
2. you can try to extract it yourself - there's a tool for ROM conversion to format mountable on PC (with e.g. Ext2Fsd & gizmo)
3. I found port of it for non-TW ROMs somewhere on xda - don't remember the link, but try searching for "TW clock"
Hey thanks for taking the time to reply. I am on LQ2 ICS. If you could send file to [email protected] or post here or whatever that would be ace. I will have a look for TW clock as well.

Making CWM Flashable ZIP from mobile phone

Hi there
My experiments come to an end. Pls note the steps below
(1)at first u need a sample zIP download it from below link
http://d-h.st/ZYX
(2)download "PowerGrasp file manager" from link below
http://d-h.st/t3u
(3)open the sample zip from file manager(do not extract) u will see
Folder meta-inf (don't modify it leave it as it is)
now make another folder named system under this make folder app(For apk's)now cut and paste any desired apk into app folder
(4)now file manager asks compression level choose normal(6)
(5)Now exit this zip operation
Hurrey u have created ur first cwm flashable zip from ur phone itself
Goto recovery and flash it. Off course it will work just try and hit thanks
-----------------------------------------------------
Hints
/system/app - all the system apps (SystemUI.apk etc)
/system/framework/ -framework-res.apk,android.policy.jar
/system/media - bootanimation.zip
/system/lib - libraries (*.so)
---------------------------------------------------------------
For rom's flashable zip u need to edit the updater script u can do this also in mobile(like notepad++ in PC)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aor.droidedit
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HIT THANKS if u like my work. Don't think just hitttttt
Great thanks testing

Why would you need to make a flashable zip of your phone, what's wrong with a normal nandroid? This idea makes no sense.

If u want to make flash able zip of boot animation then u need PC
With this u don't need PC. Understand the thread now u can create flashable zip right from your phone
Basically it can be used to make flashable zips/roms. Or edit existing roms to remove stuff you don't want before flashing all from your phone.

How about the permissions from the apps that get flashed?
Are they automatically set to 644 after flashing?

Yes it requires. It is actually related to ROM modifications via flashing the zip through cwm.

Permissions for the original bootanimation were the same as what you posted but execute was not checked at all, just the first three and the top one on the second column.
working on Monx's rom just fine.

this happend for me too. gonna try to figure out why. but if anyone has a solution that would be awesome
same problem, any solution? animation is cooooooool
Fixed it
There, works perfect now.
Something to do with how many pictures are in a single folder.
Also, cropped out some of the background, and scaled up the image (maybe lost some quality, but I didn't notice it at all).
Download the attachment or, from here (DevHost link).
@pugazh_boss Could you add a link to this post in the OP?
