Remove facebook,twitter and all social stuff. Plus remove finance. If you remove the LG launcher,then install atleest a fast one instead. I think go-launcher slows down the phone badly. TSF would be cool Its the smoothest launcher i ever used.
One does not simply send from a XDA-app.
The 3Dmax launcher is smooth and does barely use any ram.

hi richard711,
it will really be difficult to please every one here. someone will want facebook, someone wont want facebook, as an example. however, please keep the ROM to a bare minimum so that each one can download whatever he or she pleases from the market or elsewhere (like gapps, facebook, twitter, LGWorld etc)
tweaks in the 3D cams for pics and videos will be very highly appreciated.
Appreciate the fact that you are trying to make a real "People's ROM."
Best of luck and may your tribe increase!

Performance with no extra softwares that no one uses ever in SU 760 would be heavenly
The best idea is:
REMOVE ALL BLOATWARE FROM LG.
and slim it up as much as possible(like cm)
but still having the 3d features.
Make it AOSP style.

but If its was cyanogen type rom one that has constant working wi-fi
all versions CM7 that came out so far just don't have wi-fi that would stay on even if the screen went off
Guys, please don't ask for USB-OTG.
It's kernel related and unless he states he works on kernels, it won't be implemented in the ROM.
Keep lg social +

I'd agree with the idea to remove all unnecessary apps, so that users may determine for themselves what apps they want to install;
IMO the rom should have Xloud Mod and it'd be great if it could record video without stuttering ;D (impossible as it seems, however acting on XBSA advice I installed a v20g based rom and it seems to have almost no stuttering)
social feed widget for sure
es filer and tasker
ti backup
and if you can remove the ringtone size limiter
Remove everything that can be downloaded from the play store so the user can choose what they want on their device. Remove as much useless LG system stuff that does not benefit the user. Very good ram management. A nice launcher (3D Max). Very smooth, snappy, and stable.
i wnt:
Removed Xloud and Beats Audio ROM. If somebody want it, install via .zip file.
Some new interface, new status bar, new features in setting, etc.
A music player that doesn't skip! Maybe try to integrate cm7 music player and dsp manager.

- Android System Info - Nice and easy overview of your battery, space and ram usage and more.
- Google Authenticator - Required for 2-factor protection on your Google account.

App I really love is:
MyPhoneExplorer
You just simply install it on phone, later on on PC. You can connect your phone via USB, BT or WIFI. Works for me perfect - very easy files shering (including folders), contact edit... and there is much more!

Greenify is great at battery life especially when used with better battery stats. You can hibernate apps that are causing your phone to wake up or ones that run in the background.

Now that I am on 4.2.2, DashClock widget and extension series is a must for me.
Along with it, a third party launcher app like Apex or Nova is a must for UI customisations, also WidgetLocker.
For root, SetCPU is a must too. Great battery saver for 4.1.2, but not on 4.2.2 as I try recently.
For daily tasks, GTasks is a must for me to organise things better.
I don't like bright screen in dark place, so Screen Filter works perfectly for me to dim the screen further. It works by applying a layer of black wallpaper with transparency over the screen.
Last but not the least, EasyTouch (Apple's assistive touch-like) improves the lifespan for my home and power button (I guess?).
Have you guys heard about Unicon/Icon Themer? It allows you to use those icon themes what are usually for launchers only. I like it and it really works. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sg.ruqqq.IconThemer

Here are some tips to increase the battery life of our galaxy core
Requirements-
1.Rooted galaxy core
2.Link2SD(download from google play)
Steps-
1.I noticed that the display used the most % of battery. Then I found out it was because of Touchwiz launcher.
so first thing you should is use a different launcher, eg. HOLO, Nova, Apex
After installing the launcher open link2sd and freeze TouchWiz Home(optional)
2.there are some apps which we don't use and which consume a lot of juice, so use link2sd n freeze them
here's the list of apps-
1.Clock(digital)
2.Clock(funky)
3.Clock(modern)
4.Dual clock(analogue)
5.Dual clock(digital)
6.Favourite Apps
7.Game Hub
8.Music Player(optional)(the default music player uses a lot of battery, if you use other music players the freeze this, otherwise leave it)
9.PageBuddyNotiSvc
10.Samsung Apps
11.Simple Alarm Clock
12.Yahoo! Finance
13.Yahoo! News
Do all these n see if you notice the difference..
I had already applied nova launcer ... but didn't new how to remove touchwiz launcher .... anyways thanks a lot !!

Well It does... The apps I listed use 2-3mb ram each, so if you freeze them more ram will be available which will make your phone faster.
if you want performance over style then install SickSky launcher(free on play store).

yeah i used it and if i use super task killer it will give 400-450 instead of 300-340 ;o HUGE differents!
I now use apex launcher with a galaxy s4 theme looks almost 100% like Real touchwiz. but the one thing that bothers me is that is no labels under the dock icons can i add labels to dock icons on apex ?
GOOD GUIDE BTW!!!
To freeze system apps you neither need root nor any app like Link2sd.All non essential apps can be disabled from application manager itself.Just go to settings/application manager/all and click the app you want to disable and then simply click on disable.To enable just click on enable to enable it again.
wow it's really works, now i have 500mb ram free space . thanks a lot:laugh::good:
im get a better battery life more, thanks for this thread
or just uninstall those bloatwares if your phone's rooted.
Hey thanks, i want to reshare with all my friend
#just_a_note
please don't remove any system app .. this might cause system instability ..just greenify apps that are not in use .. use 2 background processes as maximum thanks
there are many sys apps which are BLOATWARES , you can safely remove them(only non important ones)

I'm confused, do these for get more RAM or for better battery?
[ROM DISCONTINUED] >> DEEP IMPACT ROM v2.526 << debloated, themed, powerful battery
DEEP IMPACT ROM
Hi guys, after a long wait, I bring to you an update to the first iteration of the Deep_Impact_Rom series with version 2.526
[base updated to N7100XXUFNI4] :fingers-crossed:
Rom has been completely debloated of all unwanted stuff which occupies RAM and consumes battery un-necessarily. If you do need any services back first do look up in the bloat folders. If you dont find it, or dont know what to include, post a request on the thread itself. Me or anyone else who have already faced that issue will help you out.
Rom has been themed optimally for maximum battery savings including the all black look which has been proven to have the maximum battery life for all available colors which runs on an AMOLED screen such as our beloved note 2.
And the other main intention of this rom is to reduce after install customization. I've done the debloating part already. So, there are no apps that you would need to freeze from titanium backup. And commonly used apps have already been included. Majority of the missing apps can be installed from play store.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions for flashing the Rom
Please note, neither me nor my cat are responsible for your device. Be careful in following the steps and you shouldn't have any problems. Oh yeah.. Your warranty is now void.!!
I've observed a lot of threads, and a lot of people have a lot of questions about installing roms.
Make sure you read the entire post as it will save you a lotttt of google searches and time searching for answers.
So, I'm sharing with you what needs to be done in order to install the right way, get the max performance, batt life, how to avoid FCs and some known errors, ways to correct them and what to expect from the device + some mods you would like to have
Step 1
Before install, super wipe. And I dont mean just clearing cache, preload and system folders.
Use of either Philz or TWRP recovery recommended, update to the latest.
Before using this option though, make sure you backup the folders pictures, DCIM and whatsapp if you plan on restoring the conversations that you've had. This is equally important if you play a lot of games. Games have a tendency to leave behind huge clusters of junk.
1> in case of philz-
Use the "clean to install new rom" option under wipe data/factory reset in case of Philz after using the option clean to install a new rom, head over to the mounts and storage area and use the option "format /sdcard".
2> in case of TWRP-
And use the advanced format and format "internal SD, dalvik, cache, data and system" in case of TWRP.
I've made thousands of flashes following simple precautions, and not once my EFS was affected. So make it a point to follow this guide if you dont know how to go about flashing a rom.
Step 2
Install the rom, and dont flash any mod or pack just yet, reboot. Allow the rom to complete all the necessary "after install" procedures. like setting up of account, but not apps.
To install mods or a custom kernel, reboot now after update.
Complete setup and just make sure play store updates itself and camera is working all right.
Step 3
Installing the root fix
1> right after flashing rom, flashing the fix
2> complete rom setup, and then flash the fix
reboot and flash the latest super su from recovery.
I would strongly recommend the second method as the first one may result in a non working or a partial rooted rom.
Step 4- Mods
Now the part comes in where the rom has to be pretty much setup to match your requirements
1> To change DPI- There are 3 ways of doing this
a) build.prop edit
b) installing a mod pack
c) using Texdroider dpi
Although all the 3 methods do the same job, i would not recommend the second method as it installs system files which can be much older than the rom base and can lead to some FCs or errors and there aren't many mod packs that are simply "complete". Now if you find the first method too tedious, use the app called Texdroider dpi from play store to do that job. Its as easy as install, change values and reboot. Its the easiest way to change dpi on any rom, Not only this.
names of applications that need to be set to 320 dpi from app settings in case of any other dpi other than default-
a. keyboard
b. contacts
c. calculator
d. camera
e. com.android.keyguard
f. idea sketch
g. phone
2> Customization
To everyone who hates the stock look, or if looking for something different, use xposed module. I prefer wanam by choice as almost every option in it works. There are other options available such as gravitybox, xblast and others which do the similar job. Here, you will be the best judge on what you want, and how you like the rom to be and function.
3> Custom kernels
There are options of Kernels available, but I personally prefer Agni. Tried almost all kernels possible out there, and Agni is the best giving out the best possible batt performance and enhancing smoothness.
Use these settings in Agni as recommended by @geekynoob
"Profile- normal
CPU governor- yanks zzmove
Max CPU freq- 1600mhz
CPU undervolting to -30mv
Gpu -50mv
Min 200mhz
Touch 2 wake off
Lmk medium
Power saving balancer set to max"
4> Disable motion, NFC, Air Gestures and all possible things that you dont use as it consumes CPU usage and battery as well.
Thats is guys. These are all the suggestions that I can think of at the moment. If you need anything else, let me know, by replying to this post.
Have fun customizing the rom.
Some pointers to get more battery life:
1. Turn off WiFi always allow scanning under advanced WiFi settings
2. If you have xposed installed, then do not believe the default battery stats found under settings. Xposed messes up the battery stats
3. If you are on custom kernel, then change CPU governor, play with the settings and find out which would be the best governor for you (device specific and usage dependent- this no one can teach. you'd have to experiment on own)
4. use a screen filter such as darker, to reduce brightness intensity when indoors
5. Use a wake lock detector to check for battery consuming apps and take necessary action on it
6. Use a black wallpaper if possible with minimal colors (applies to only amoled screens)
7. If applications permit the use of black themes, then its a better way to get more juice
8. Trickle charge the battery. Once the charge is complete, allow the phone to be plugged in for 10 to 15 min more to trickle charge. This will enhance the battery's overall life and should be made a regular practice.
9. Turn off unwanted notifications. E.g. Facebook
10. Turn off Google location reporting and all location based services
11. If you play a lot of games, make sure the games dont cause excessive wake ups
12. Hibernate apps with greenify from play store. Don't hibernate system apps as the rom is already debloated.
Summary
1> Install zip
2> reboot, complete account setup
3> reboot to recovery and flash Super SU included (not needed for ng4 base)
4> if you choose xperia launcher, go to launcher settings and under general, remove the tick from "keep launcher in memory" to avoid the persistent xperia launcher, tap to configure notification in notification menu
5> after complete install and setup, go to settings, click on device, go to sound and at the last, under advanced, you'll be able to see sound effects. Select that and click on soundalive or viper audio (preferable) to avoid negligible fc when walkman is opened. (if faced with that FC, check root permissions and reinstall viper. Otherwise negligible)
6> if you feel anything missing, then either let me know over the post or find the link to bloat folder in 2nd post in case you need any apps back into the operating system. Find them in the respective folders, and push them to the same folder under root/system/*****, set permissions to rw-r-r, reboot to recovery, clear cache and reboot. Things should start working fine.

Guys, responses might be slow cuz of the large amount of projects and regular classes. Feel free to post suggestions, requests, anything you'd like. But assured, your suggestion and comment will not go unnoticed. Thanks for the co-operation.
Hit thanks if you like my work...
Note on the new update: Guys, the gallery and file system on 2.5 will take some time to generate indexes on first boot and may slow down the OS for some time depending on the amount of files on SD card and internal storage. Do have some patience to wait until 2nd charge cycle to get max performance. This is enabled to reduce overall TW lag.

I'm very sure Agni's new release is just round the corner. The tutorial is aimed toward being geared for the future with as less edits as possible so that people can learn for the future and not just for my rom nor for the present..

Abdul bhai.. I think the first 3 posts had to be kept reserved, the first 2 already have links and instructions. As I see it, is quite sufficient with all future edits within these 2 posts itself. Saves the hassle for anyone to keep searching the thread. How much will the mouse's scroll button or the page down button be used? We'll give it a break.. What say? :laugh:

I don't think that screen mirroring works. Did you even try before answering ?
Root breaks it and there is still no fix for touchwiz kitkat roms.
I'm waiting for it to be fixed as I use a lot this feature to play movies on my TV.

yes, rooting breaks Screen Mirroring. There isn't a Fix or patch for kitkat roms yet. I'll try to work on it and see what I can come up with. I'm not sure of WiFi direct though cuz I've personally never used it. Do try and let me know.

By meaning Indian optimized, the carrier settings, language settings, and region specific settings have been set to India so that there is no nodal lock coming into picture on few minor carriers and also for some region specific applications such as google maps and youtube. I have also removed all languages except English (united states), cuz that is the most used language used for a phone interface here.

I installed your ROM and it is very stable, except for a few bugs:
1) When phone is switched off and put on charging, it auto starts
2) Everytime the phone starts, I get a message ( four times ) showing my balance. This didn't happen before and doesn't happen in any other android phone in which I put my sim card in.
3) Wanam xposed module is not working. Anything I should keep in mind ? I installed the xposed framework, but it just doesn't work
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wanam works perfectly fine. Install it through the xposed module or play store as the application has been updated for kitkat. Make sure to have the latest xposed module as well
The autostarts on charging cuz the bootloader you have is a 4.3 bootloader and not 4.4. If you are aware, just like 4.3 update which did not allow going back to 4.1, 4.4 official update does not allow one to go back to 4.3. Since you are on 4.3 bootloader which allows you now to go back to 4.3, that is an issue that i cannot deal with.
About the carrier message popups, I'll look into it on my next iteration. I dont suppose those messages are being charged for you as of this moment.. right??

When we search internet for how to make android or xperia devices more faster then we see the following tips mostly on every third site.
1) Reduce animation scale
2) Remove unused widgets on home screen.
3) Don't use live wallpapers, use static wallpapers.
4) Clean your cache by using clean master app or any other cache cleaner app.
5) Clean your ram by Ram cleaner app. eg. NQ Android booster or you can use other app according to your taste.
6) Restart your device once in a day to clear ram.
7) Use third party home launchers eg. Nova and Apex launchers.
8) Move apps to internal storage to clear phone memory.
9) Delete useless apps from your device.
10) Don't update stock apps which you are not using because it fulls your device memory.
If you have rooted phone, then delete all those useless stock apps which you are not using.
By following above tips we can observe some improvements in the performance of our device.
But some people also claim that by rooting/unlocking bootloader they observe more lags in their device performance and on the other hand, some people say that their device performance become better after rooting.
Now in this thread we can discuss some more tips and tweaks which are helpful in increasing our xperia devices performance.
If you know any trick and tweak that make our devices more faster then you can share that trick in this thread.
1. Change Your stock kernel to another, and change governor (Try and pick the best of You I recommend pegasusq or SmartassH3)
2. Install Pure Performance Golden Edition mod (way faster)
3. Use Seeder (reduce lag)
4. Uninstall unused apps like Timescape, Google maps etc. (More space in system = better)
5. Remove unnecessary language in the keyboard are not using (More space in system = better)
6. Change launcher witch is lighter
Optional
Odex Your rom
Install The New Pure Audio 2.0 (it don't speed up your phone but You here difference in sound)
Mine:
1. Delete some system app (Google+ .....)
2. Use Greenify to hibernate some apps if they are running in background
3. Use XBooster to free more RAM
4. Use another kernel, mine is Intuisy Kernel
Sent from my ST23i using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
1.Greenify is your friend
2.Use slim rom and the slimmest gapps possible
3.Remove useless apps
4.Overclock it.
Overclock to 1.3 Ghz, Governor: OndemandX and I/O Scheduler: Sio
Remove all bloatware from system/app
Remove all useless and unnecessary apps and widgets

@DanielFlorin, Odexed is faster than Deodexed...it is not a theory but a fact ^-^, it's alot harder to theme tho compared to deodexed.
Also delete some bloat apps in System/App such as SocialEngineCore.apk and the like
Delete the Weather and Youtube app if theyre not going to be used

I was using this option long time ago and it doesn't boost anything. It's better to just remove rubbish.
Also it's good to avoid having total mess on the SD card and internal memory. I make total cleaning every few months.
