★ [MOD] ◢ PurePerformances™X ◣ | Golden Edition | Scary performances on Android
Hi
I tried this hack with KK 4.4.2 stock ROM. It has made my device very snappy. Overall system performace has improved a lot.
I am sharing this for our Moto X forum members wanting to try.
Original Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360670&nocache=1
Hope it helps.
working good,thanks
So many of those build.prop lines are confirmed useless...
I'll test it myself anyway lol. Thanks.
Wow it works definitely snappy nice find.
trying it, seems to do the trick
Anytime I flash a mod like this and it changes my animations to .5 I am suspicious if its actually doing anything more than that
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
My animation was already .5 and I noticed a more fluid ui
I changed my animation back to 1.0 and it does seem more fluid. [emoji57]
Trying it now, will report back

It breaks AdAway, so that's pretty annoying
How can i know whether it is installed successfully?

Yes. Initially it does break AdAway.. Once flashed this hack I reinstalled Adaway and also flashed Mother of All adblocking from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098.
Hope it helps. It stops ad but still there are very few app on which AdAway never worked (eg. "Ditch Last Seen Whasapp")..

Go to /etc with any root explorer app and if you see a folder called Crossbreeder you're good. Recovery script is not very descriptive as to what it's doing so I found myself checking for that as well lol.
It makes a difference in speed for sure. Remains to be be seen if it breaks anything. No issues with the usual sms, mms, calls, active notifications, touchless controls or Google now from my (minimal) testing.

So I decided to flash the pureperformance uninstaller to see if I could tell that much of a difference and now my tether doesn't work. Tether worked pre uninstaller. You think it changed something in the build. prop? Any thoughts?
I do not like the fact it enables the swap partition in Android everyone knows the constant read and write of flash or nand memory will reduce its life some what that is why you disable all swap files on computers with SSD's
But other then that looks nice..

Second this, lost tether as well. Had to restore a nandroid, I didn't see any performance differences anyway with this already speedy phone running krypton. Always make a nand folks.

I third this. I reflashed my system partition over. This "mod" didn't do me any good and disabled ad block. Waste of time.
If you want adaway to work with this, go to system/etc/crossbreeder and delete
ENABLE_ADBLOCK
DISABLE_ADBLOCK
HOSTS
START_ADBLOCK

I'm wearing my dunce hat now for not making a nandroid. I reflashed to stock and my tether still doesn't work. I'm going to try and do a complete wipe and start over. I would stay away from this mod for those thinking about flashing it.

Hello Everyone!
This is kinda sorta really late, but here is the flashable, rooted version of the latest stock rom update!
Flashing this will get you to 1.55.531.3, without the trouble of having to gain root permission again. Keep in mind that this rom will maintain everything that a stock rom would have, including the bloats. I will upload a version w/o bloat soon.
Report back if there's any problems!
Download DS_Mod_1.55.531.3 Here
02.07.12: I took out most of the bloatware in the debloated version. Download the debloated version here!
P.S. If flashing this caused your dog to have cancer, I am in no way responsible!
Omg omg omg <3
Does this support the new radio?
Yea, it's based from a device that was at the most recent OTA, with everything that comes with it.
Thanks to Daniel for bringing us forward - It's great to see people releasing all kinds of goodies for us to play with
Can you make a deodexed version? I'm a huge themer.
Do you think it would be a good idea to try flashing this on my non rooted mt4gs? Like putting it on my sd card and getting into recovery?

do you have the new radio already? this ROM was made to run with the new radio, but it will not install the radio. i am curious to see how this runs when people flash it with the old radio... (could run just fine, we've just never had the chance to see it done )
also you could flash the new radio, but this could be a problem if you decide to flash back to an older custom ROM, as people have reported random reboots with the new radio on the older ROMs.

that would be a really cool new way to root! probably won't work, as it likely won't pass the signature check in stock recovery. shouldn't hurt to try, it would probably just not let it flash.
I'll wait for the Bloat-free version.
Or can you just use the Bloater app to remove them?
Just scored this phone for my little brother. The little amount of ROMs in the 4G Slide community surprised me.
I want him to have a full experience so I'm going to flash this ROM, I don't like how every other ROM has things here and there not working - specifically no 1080p video.

Well, this is a zip, not a pd.img, so booting into recovery or fastboot wouldn't work anyways. OP, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is only for people with s-off, root and clockwork mod installed.
I can't wait for the debloated.
Are you going to be able to hide Kidzone and freeze the "Groups" section?

Unfortunately, yes. This is for people who are currently s-off who want to go back to the new version of stock without going through the trouble that's described here.
I'm getting constant reboots, not sure if due to the new Radio I flashed, or this ROM.

Try reflashing first. If that doesn't solve the issue, revert back to the original radio. I'm currently using this rom right now and I haven't had a reboot yet. Or maybe it's a YMMV thing
Also, debloated version is up!
Still no deodexed version. What a shame.

Sorry for sounding like a fool, but if I installed this ROM, could I then use cwm to restore data for apps and such, as I CBA to reinstall them all!

Restoring system app data I would avoid, but to restore user apps use titanium backup. Its free and great if properly used. Just set your filters to make sure you don't include any system apps on your batch backup. And when you restore the apps, I would batch restore the apps and then restore the app data only for apps where you actually need to restore app data.
And don't tell Scott I recommended backing up and restoring.
To the guy scared of borking, don't worry its a good file.

Ok. Sure.
I have never created a ROM, MOD or TOOL that has ever borked anything.
You can see my creation list here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=57713590
If you are still concerned then simply dont flash it and just move on. I dont know what you are so scared of or why are you making such a big deal

Once again, its a stock rooted ROM. Nothing more. Its not a custom ROM. There are no tweaks or no mods, etc. You can provide all the feedback you want. There will be no changes because its stock.
I still have root but TB is saying I don't any reason for this?

TB Doesnt like this root method. Clear TB data and SuperSU data. Make sure you update binaries in Super SU then set the default permissions to allows allow. Other than that I have no clue. I get root with every app no problem.
Let me guess who rated the thread 2 stars? Hmmmm....
2 starsss. no way it is the best Stock ROM around IMO.
I just rate it 5X.
BTW TB works fine here, it acquires root w/o problem.
Haven't find any issue actually.

I know man... Some people are quick to downgrade something when they dont know how to use it. lol
Some peoples kids!
One possible nice addition would be 4in1 power buttons, even if it was hidden somewhere so the wife couldn't accidentally hit it.. The ability to jump to recovery would be nice since it's pissy to do it the hardware "button"/cold way. I know it's stock, and I greatly appreciate it. I have it loaded for my wife, but jumping to recovery from the device without issues, another app, or a tool kit would be nice. Just an idea. Thanks.
Going to check this out, just want something stock and speedy. CM10 was a bit too unstable for me at the moment. Thanks for the ROM!
Besides the modem stuff thanks to racing19969 here, it doesn't look like anything is really around for this - though given all the other fun options I'm not surprised Regardless, I figured I should actually do something for the Blaze as it's been a while so here I am!
[size=+1]I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS (GOOD OR BAD) AS A RESULT OF FLASHING OR ATTEMPTING TO FLASH WHAT IS POSTED HERE![/size]
I am normally a bit verbose on things, but I really didn't do much here. The below files were all pulled from either dumps from the phone or pulled from the UVMB1 tar I got from sammobile.com.
The odexed version I did NOTHING to (except fashion it into something CWM flashable), which means it is unrooted and it includes the stock kernel. The deodexed/zipaligned version includes SuperSU v1.34 (found here) as well as busybox (v1.20.2 thanks to imnuts). I also went through and removed 3 apks, 1 lib, and some smali bits in Settings.apk and framework.jar that were related to carrier iq. It's actually rendered dormant by T-Mobile, but better safe than sorry. Also - this one does not include a kernel as I don't want to force it on folks (even though it's likely a good idea!).
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS (GOOD OR BAD) AS A RESULT OF FLASHING OR ATTEMPTING TO FLASH WHAT IS POSTED HERE!
Usual rules apply - you should be cautious whenever you flash. Make sure to wipe data/factory reset to avoid issues. Flash in recovery.
As the Blaze is now privy to a number of AOSP-flavored ROMs, remember that you will need to flash the stock UVMB1 kernel if you aren't already using it. Others might work but I haven't tested, so YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Installation instructions:
- Backup your current setup/data
- Download file and place on sdcard
- Boot into CWM/TWRP recovery
- Recommended to wipe data/factory reset in CWM/TWRP recovery
- Select and install the .zip you put on your sdcard
And without further ado - here are the downloads:
---UVMB1 STOCK FILES---
BLOATED UVMB1 DEODEXED ROOTED BUSYBOX-ED
md5: 8B2E2C2E8C79890683745A3F8EE83450
BLOATED UVMB1 ODEXED UNROOTED w/ KERNEL

STOCK UVMB1 KERNEL
md5: 8187DD61083FDF7DDBDD0B1A9357B5FD
Enjoy!
Also - I did not get a chance to try this out on my wife's phone yet. I am fairly confident everything will work just fine, and recent reports seem to support such a confidence, but even so I feel I should put an "I haven't tested this" disclaimer in here

EDIT: Going to reflash again anyway. The checkbox isn't there for me. But I was running crossbreeder and I highly recommend it with this stock! It is WAY more responsive!

You would think such things would be reported if that were the case, but you never know. It is an option (and functional) on other roms, yes? Sometimes the Settings options are dependent on certain conditions being met - so if it tried to poll the nfc adapter for example and got no response maybe it wouldn't show... I really dunno though, I haven't looked very thoroughly to be honest.

Here's what I have in settings>more (images attatched). One image is at the top of settings>more and there is the 'mobile networks' missing from that screenshot. The second image shows that. No NFC checkbox.
Keep in mind even if I run stock I make my own... adjustments... I will start over from the beginning and if I find out where I went wrong I will report so others will know.
I'm using the BLOATED UVMB1 DEODEXED ROOTED BUSYBOX-ED with the stock kernel linked below it and still no NFC option in settings>more. I have downloaded the files again and checked md5's and still nothing. Like I said, it's nothing major as I don't use it.
EDIT: I was going to try the odexed version to check it but got a status 7. something with the boot partition mmcblk0p8

You can use Google Chrome to open the page and use translate the page to English, the rom installation is English. I have installed and run good and smoothly.

This rom is super cool. Im running a different one that's in the same section, it seems to have the UI more accurate like the V20. The devs there seem to be hella active. Ive seen updates every few days for both roms. Runs smooth and battery life is much better than stock in my opinion, cant tell if its a placebo though so Id recommend you test yourself.

I saw a post in the Dev section that stated both 20J & 20L are both set to Anti-Rollback version 2. As long as you stay within the same anti-rollback version then you should be able to move back and forth between 20J & 20L. I believe 20E is Anti-Rollback version 1.
I am about to move back to 20J and will let you know how it goes.

Ive seen updates every few days for both roms. Runs smooth and battery life is much better than stock in my opinion, cant tell if its a placebo though so Id recommend you test yourself.

Yeah, they are active but it is expected since they have a lot of sales in the Asian market. Can you please get me the link to the V20-like ROM?

Can someone say whether this ROM has init.d support? You can tell because there will be a folder called init.d at /system/etc/init.d. It may or may not be empty. If there is something in there then it's a pretty good indication. I usually drop a file in there that will run on boot and produce a log file in /data. If that log file doesn't appear, then no init.d support is present.

Can't find it using root browser, though it maybe me. Let's wait for another person to confirm.
I'll go ahead and assume the answer is no unless someone confirms otherwise. If I knew how to mod kernels, ramdisks, etc then I would add it myself. There is a universal init.d app that can add artificial support for this in the meantime, so not a huge deal. But kernel/ROM support for it is superior.

I believe this is the ROM you are looking for: RadeonMaya
I've had it installed for about 2 hours now and all is well.
V. 4.0 Back up first. My idea for easier update, wipe Dalvik / System / Cache and then install the 4.0
For Clean install, wipe Dalvik / System / Data / Cache then install

How did you extract this? The apps I used on the phone say a password is required. And it's a TWRP backup to be restored?
Edit: got it from the thread there! Duh

Glad you got it worked out, it took me a minute to figure out the password also lol. So far I've noticed my data speeds are slow and I only see 4G and not 4G LTE at the top so far....

Ah ok lol haha, cool. All my andoid apps on the phone are failing to extract it, even with the password.
But as for the LTE, I think you may need to edit the build.prop if it isn't set up to be a Tmobile device. Or someone posted a tmo build.prop file in the thread about getting the 20l OTA, I believe

If you replace the build.prop in this rom with a stock one it will get stuck at LG and won't boot any further...at least in my experience. I'm sure it's something easy but who knows
FOR THOSE WITH LAG ISSUES:
You will still be rooted using this method!
(I posted this on the oreo rooting thread in a reply but making a thread so maybe more can see it!
I was well aware of the lag issues that came with using the eng kernel, but it got to the point even with all the tweaks & mods (L-speed, kernel auditor, etc.) I was still experiencing severe lag (mainly doing things like listening to music and using snapchat at the same time, phone became unusable with alot of hangs and freezes!)I was just about to flash back to stock oreo because I felt that the trade off of Root for lag wasn't balanced.
But then I remembered seeing a post in one of these threads...might've been during Nougat days or more recent oreo, I do not remember, either way, flashing the stock BL in odin would fix lag completely. I was willing to give it a shot mainly because I was going to go back to stock anyway if it didn't work and to my surprise the phone booted! After everything settled after boot, I already noticed the difference, it was substantial!
Now, if you have already fixed your lag issues by other means then you don't need to read this post! but for some that still have tried everything and you still experience extreme lag, these are the steps I took to fix mine:
1. Was rooted on @jrkruse [Rom][ALL_CARRIERS_CRG2][Stock_Oreo_Hybrid] ( the lastest one which is CRG2) -------> this is the only rom I can say this works on as I have only tried it on this rom
2. Assuming you are already running his rom and not stock oreo (if you are running stock oreo then I cannot say if this will work for you or not, I would suggest going to his rom)
3. In his OP in, [Rom][ALL_CARRIERS_CRG2][Stock_Oreo_Hybrid], download the odin files (SM-G935U_G935UUEU4CRG2.zip)
4. Extract it and find the file [BL_G935UUEU4CRG2]
5. reboot your phone into download mode and flash the stock BL
NOTE: By the time I did this I was already on @jrkruse CRG2 ROM and already rooted, so I suggest the same to avoid any unseen complication! Flash the rom using his instructions, root using his rooting guide and then try this
This worked for me great! I can say that the phone is running VERY close to stock speeds and I have not noticed a single stutter or framedrops, I even tried remaking the same situation that would cause the phone to freeze and the phone did perfectly after doing this!
Let me know if this has worked for anyone else!
Edit:
This is also fixed my heating issues as well, the phone does not get extremely hot anymore
Edit 2:
along with this fix, I have L-speed set to 'Performance' profile and governor set to interactive, no other tweaks
Wow
Works great thanks for being the man

Of course! You see a big difference with this fix?
is there any ROM/fix like this for S7 930U?

I did this on the s7 edge but looking at the s7 flat forums it looks like you can.
You'll have to be on @jrkruse [Rom][ALL_CARRIERS_CRF1][Stock_Oreo_Hybrid] from that thread (in the verizon flat forums not this forum)
Get the stock odin files from his OP (in the verizon flat forums not this forum) [G930TUVU4CRF1_G930TTMB4CRF1_TMB.zip] ----> this is what you want from his post
Extract and flash the stock BL from that zip after you have installed the ROM and rooted it with his root method
That was very helpful. I did use the suggestion you mentioned and gave noticed a difference in speed and lag. It is much more responsive
Huge difference no lag at all been running about a week now and it's running great thanks again
Just did this fix on my S7 flat and on first boot already noticed a huge difference in boot time and lag! Thanks for this!

Awesome! That's great! I saw you talking about speed in @jrkruse root thread and was going to link this to you the other day but I just didn't have the time to with life and things! I want to make this more well known to the people in that thread or actually to all S7 users! I have no idea how or why it works it just does! Was hoping to see if @jrkruse or maybe @stang5litre would try or maybe view this too! I actually first posted this on his root thread on page 64 but I didn't think many people would see it there so I decided to make a thread

Awesome! Thank you! Maybe if this fix is actually something worth noting then you can try implementing in your Rom! Orrrr maybe I'm just flattering myself but either way Thanks for taking a look! It makes a huge difference in my case and in others!
That would be awesome, I remember running your roms back in the day!

this means we can be rooted with stock kernel? is phone still booting after modifying system partiton once doing this?

No you are still on ENG kernel, this fix has nothing to do with kernel, we are flashing stock bootloader over Oreo ENG bootloader but for some reason it improves speed and decreases lag by alot
After running this for the past two days now, I can clearly say that it has helped immensely with the lag and the heat issues. My phone is running almost as fast as my Pixel and I am no where near the heat that I used to be. I am also using L speed set to performance and I have no complaints at all. I am not usually one to fall prey to the "placebo affect" where you just think it is running faster, this actually is.

Thats great to hear! I've used this for about a week and a half now and like you said the difference is night & day, wanted to share it with everyone so they could use it too!
Hey brother wondering if you did this for the updated CRG2 update and if so did it work as good as before?

I haven't updated mainly because I don't want to wipe data and reset up phone but I'm 99% sure it should work look at at the new instructions from CRG2, but just to make sure, reflash the stock bootloader after you update anyway
I tried it on my S7 flat and it gave me a nice bootloop LOL,,,,prob just a glitch cause I did the same thing as I did before and it worked so weird.

How did you do it? Did you flash new Rom then immediately flash stock BL or did you let rom boot first?
