How to stop the Note5 from killing background apps and enjoy better multitasking - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

Found this on phonearena.com and figured I'd share this. I take no credit for this and am merely posting for those who may have missed this. I haven't tried this yet, but many are saying it works. The link to original article and instructions are below:
http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-...d-apps-and-enjoy-better-multitasking_id73276
1. Install the build.prop editor app from Google Play ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en ).
2. Go to the #DHA Properties part and change the following entries' values like this:
ro.config.dha_cached_max=12
ro.config.dha_empty_max=36
3. Add the following lines below these entries:
ro.config.dha_th_rate=2.3
ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=0.545
ro.config.sdha_apps_bg_max=70
ro.config.sdha_apps_bg_min=8
4. Finally, delete the following four lines from the build.prop file:
ro.config.dha_cached_max=
ro.config.dha_empty_max=
ro.config.dha_th_rate=
ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=
5. Save the changes and reboot your Note5. Now, the phablet shouldn't be closing tasks so aggressively.
As always, backup your data before doing this and you do this at your own risk!!!

I read it 5 times lambert looks right to me, but worse.
he has you edit 2, then add 2 and delete those same 4.
Original artical has same issue, it's missing something or a copy psste error.

thanks.. works greats.. a little lag thou
I had some lag for the first three seconds, but it's running smooth now. Running ParanoidAndroid with stock CM9 kernel. No OC or anything else.
yup, seems to lag for the first 3 seconds during the start of the game, after that it runs pretty smooth, thanks again for sharing.
It wiped out my save file.
Had to restore via titanium backup.
No idea where I went wrong.

but it's not any diffrences between these 2 page
good luck
I know right?
I know lots of people have success. I followed the guide fully too...
Tried again today. No luck.
Am using Root explorer to edit xml file.
I did connect my Dead Trigger game to the online account though. Maybe that is why. I am at level 21.

Not everybody (including me) likes to use an app to do basic stuff like this. It takes one minute to do this, and i'm not dependent on an extra app to run a game.
There's been an update in the Play store for this game.. is it safe to let it update or should I just keep ignoring it?
I have no idea. Backup the config file you've edited, update and check if it's working. If not, just paste the config file back. That should do it.

is it just me, when using tegra effect the game seems bit laggy? especially the water drop effect on screen...
Just wanted to let anyone/everyone else know that the update didn't alter our modifications. Ultra high settings remain.

Themeing note 10.1

So I started working on a theme for my note 10.1, is going good so far but ran in to a little snag. The problem is when iedit the notifications background it seems to shrink for no reason. The resolution of the image hasn't changed just modified the colour. As you can see in the image below 1 being where 2 should be. And number 3 has developed a gap for some reason even though it hasn't been modified,. Any help would be much appreciated.

Looks like you edited a .9.png file. You need to maintain the 9 patch when editing the file. You have to decompile the apk then edit images. If you look on the border of 9 patch images you'll see black dots or lines you need to make sure they remain solid black and do not edit or move them.

[Framework.jar][ParanoidAndroid 3.60]Increase your Wifi Signal

EDIT OPS MAYBE THIS THREAD CAN BE MOVED TO GENERAL SECTION.
Hey guys,
browsing on the net on how to increase wifi signal I got into this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711603
Here is a modded framework.jar of Woh's Rom.
It's working on 3.60 don't know on the other VERSION OF PARANOID.
It increased my range of about 5-7 metres, it may change or don't work for you at all.
Steps by Me :
Step 1 :
Using a root file manager, navigate to /proc and copy the Calibration file to /system/etc
set permission for the file as -rw-r-r
Step 2 :
Download and flash this zip
(http://www.mediafire.com/?1zz8lpkuu44k55o)
Step 3 :
Go to system/etc open the calibration file and add this line at the end of the file
rssi_offset=20
(my framework.jar has 20 as value)
Step 4 :
Now download the framework.jar file attached and replace it in system/framework
and set permission as :
owner v v
group v
others v
Step 5 :
Reboot
ATTENTION : Overwriting your framework.jar could cause your phone not to boot. Just use adb to restore your old framework.jar or just do a fresh install of the rom.
Here is the modded framework.jar AND IT'S NOT WORKING ON ANY ROM. I just shared this beacause it's quite annoying to follow the enteire guide.
All credits goes to :

Usually, the framework.apk defers from rom to rom.
The apk you provided should only be used with the rom you took it from.
There's something like [PARANOIDANDROID 3.60]
in the title. Just a stupid could use this on other ROMs.

May you same modify my framework if I upload it here?
I followed the procedure and used the provided jar file, but now my device is showing errors that Fused Location has stopped, followed by an error that the process com.google.process.location has stopped.
I'm re-applying the origional ROM now.
It happened to me too, just on first boot...!

I totally agree. Why not place this in the comments, or PM WoH_ to add this in his ROM?
It's a workaround, woh as manteiner can't change files in the source or his build would become a modded version... If I'm not wrong.

Hi, I think you committ a mistake in Step 3 because a good value for "rssi_offset" is 20 but you have to remember to add - symbol before the number, so the correct command is rssi_offset=-20
Best.

LG G2 keyboard with how to

Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39335178 you can find LG G2 keyboard with themes which works on our device.
Follow this small how to
1) Download [Thanks to RocketSauce83] and paste it to your SD card.
2) Install apk
2a) By default: Installation of this apk will update your original keyboard app.
2b) If not, rename your original LGIMEbin.apk in system/app directory to something like this: LGIMEbin.apk.bak.
2c) Reboot and try install again.​
3) Enable handwrite
Open build.prop and edit this line:
ime_handwriting_apply=false
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to
ime_handwriting_apply=true
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Save changes.
Reboot
4) Add other funcions
Open build.prop and add/paste these lines to bottom/end of the text:
ime_extend_row_keyboard=true
ime_onehand_keyboard=true
ime_split_keyboard=true
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Save changes.
Reboot
5) Add emoji
5a) Download AndroidEmoji.zip [Thanks to RocketSauce83] and unzip.
5b) AndroidEmoji.ttf paste it to system/fonts directory
5c) set correct permisions
rw-
r--
r--
5d) Now go to system/etc directory and open xml file with this name: fallback_fonts.xml
5e) Scroll down and look for the start of the list with used fonts. It look like this:​
Code:
.
.
....That file can also specify the order in which the fallback fonts should be
searched, to ensure that a vendor-provided font will be used before another fallback font
which happens to handle the same glyph.
-->
<familyset>
<family>
<fileset>
<!--<file>DroidNaskh-Regular.ttf</file>-->
<file>LG_Arabic.ttf</file>
</fileset>
</family>
<family>
<fileset>
<file>DroidSansEthiopic-Regular.ttf</file>
</fileset>
</family>
.
.
.
5f) To top of the list paste these few lines:​
Code:
<family>
<fileset>
<file>AndroidEmoji.ttf</file>
</fileset>
</family>
Now it will look like this:​
Code:
.

<file>LG_Arabic.ttf</file>
</fileset>
</family>

ro.config.libemoji=libemoji_lge.so
ro.lge.capp_emoji=true
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Save changes.
Reboot
Notes:
Remember: Always create backups.
From the attached files you can download my edited build.prop and fallback_fonts.xml files. I´m on V30A original ICS rom. You can paste these two files to correct directories (set correct permisions) if you are on same rom like me. But maybe will works on other roms too.

mjgspr95 great info - Might want to edit the OP to show the procedure and possibly change the title to [GUIDE] How to enable all apps in SplitView just to make it easier to find for people and keep the forums organized - also I am pretty sure this should be in General. But thank you for the info - it worked great for me.
and for those who are looking for a file browser - might want to check out ROOT Explorer

I bet you are trying to use Root Explorer to edit the file. Unfortunately the file size is too big and Root Explorer A) won't even show the entire file's contents and B) won't let you save the file even if the right commands were editable......
You have to find another alternative. Personally I pushed the file out of the phone, edited it on my computer, and pushed it back to the phone. It worked fine.

As much as I like (and also recommend) Root Explorer, it won't work with the build.prop file as it is too big for the Root Explorer text editor.

mjgspr95 great info - Might want to edit the OP to show the procedure and possibly change the title to [GUIDE] How to enable all apps in SplitView just to make it easier to find for people and keep the forums organized - also I am pretty sure this should be in General. But thank you for the info - it worked great for me.

I use root explorer as well. I didn't realize that the text editor cant handle that large of a file... Anyway this is the way that I got around it on my Mac:
On Mac:
adb pull /system/build.prop .
vi build.prop
<Make changes>
adb push ./build.prop /mnt/sdcard/
On phone:
Remount /system RW in Root explorer
Rename /system/build.prop to /system/build.prop.bak
Move /sdcard/build.prop to /system/build.prop
Reboot
You could always just download build prop editor from the play store and it works and is easy.

Edited the build.prop file. Ended up soft bricking my phone. Was able to reset but not fun.
This is an app that doesn't require mucking with build prop. Works well for me.

This thread is older than yours. (At least older than the one that I found.)
