[GUIDE] [Xperia J] [All] Minimum lag on stock

Greetings,
I want to share some tips on how to get rid of annoying lag on stock ROMs. I have an Xperia J that now seems to have the speed of a dual-core phone (it's faster than an Xperia U). NO scripts, NO complicated or risky methods.
Requirements? Root - the most important thing, patience, Play apps, Forum apps.
1. Root App Delete is an easy, small and simple tool to get rid of the nonsense system apps. You can delete or only disable them - having a .bak file in system/app instead of an .apk
2. Greenify is an intelligent tool that helps you put apps "into hibernation when you are not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery, in an unique way! They can do nothing without explicit launch by you or other apps, while still preserving full functionality when running in foreground", as the creator say. You can only hibernate user apps; so many system, preinstalled apps must be deleted and reinstalled from Play.
e.g. Facebook is a hungry app, occupying large amount of RAM - therefore you have less battery and less response of the system when you want to open another app - because all Facebook's processes must be killed. Solution? Uninstall it from system/app and reinstall it as a user app. Then greenify it! It does not have to remain open in the background because of and hour or two of use per day.
3. Seeder is a lag reducing tool that "assists the kernel in "topping off" the entropy pool by re-seeding it with data from the non-blocking (high performance) random device", helping apps to load faster and avoid lag.
4. Xperia Honami Launcher. I know it doesn't seem much as a speed tool, but, trust me, it is. I have used many versions of Xperia launchers (including the one ported from Xperia Z) and, besides that the launcher itself wasn't as sharp and fast as on a newer, more powerfull device - the entire system felt somehow... slower. Opening different apps took longer, not very good multitasking experience...
The new Honami launcher is smooth, very fast - and my Xperia J is flying. Speed everywhere! System apps opening almost instantly, it's like a dual-core hardware experience.
Doubts? Just reply, ask.
P.S. 181 MB free when I entered 'Running Apps' just now.

Very good post, thx ^^ If you run facebook messenger, facebook, music player and a random game, how many free ram do u have??

Well guys...as a matter of fact,ram is comparatively less important than cpu usage

No, I use stock kernel, didn't change it so far. Perhaps Vengeance is better, I honestly don't know...
I deleted all social-related apps (Facebook, all it's plug-ins, all Twitter apps, special widgets) including all Timescape apps (Spine, Friends etc) and Sony's social widgets, like Friend's Music. Some of Google's stuff, like Text-To-Speech, Picasa plug-in, some ugly live wallpapers... The rest I don't remember.
I disabled: Playstation Certified, Connected Devices (and all DLNA stuff), Email (since I only use Gmail), Google Bookmark and Calendar Sync, Smart Connect, Chinese Keyboard, Xperia Diagnostics, Xperia Sync.
Use Seeder with all 3 options checked (Suspend RNG, Extend I/O, Start at boot). I use Light profile, seems to work very fine that way. :cyclops:

You can find all the links for download and installing info here: [APP][4.0.3+] Xperia™ Launcher 3.0.0 | Xperia Z Ultra | Honami | 24.Jul.2013
P.S. After installing the new launcher and widgets - you can disable the old/stock ones with Root App Delete. If you use both launchers, you will not have that much RAM.

[Q] tweaks

is there any tweaks for our device

No. Build.prop tweaks most probably won't make a difference, task killers/battery savers have the adverse effect. As for performance improvements get rid of unused apps and restart the phone every few days to refresh the RAM. This applies to android in general, not just the Xperia L.

Go here and see some at your choice. Only if you know what you're doing.

[Discuss] how to make xperia devices more faster

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
Supercharge, Crossbreeder
Odex

@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

no one mentioned "stopping apps from running at startup"

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.

Check for background apps and launchers taking up too much RAM, use Nova instead of the stock one if it's running a copy of TouchWiz as that may take up a lot.

Free ram is waste ram. The point is your device should not lag. That only happens when you totally run out of ram. I would suggest you to use greenify for hibernating useless apps. It will save both your battery and ram.

Huh...
I think you should uninstall some wasting apps.

Here is photo of installed apps...

And I always stop some apps in app manager..
And sometimes is lag felt...usually when I return to Home screen...

How Can I Disable ALL Apps from App Settings?

We know that since KitKat it is possible to disable in built system apps, but there are some system apps that cannot be disabled, like Google Play Services for example. If I want to enable/disable it I have to keep my phone rooted, but I'm a '90s kid and I like playing Pokemon GO, which is not working on rooted devices. So, is it possible to extend to all apps the enable/disable feature in app settings? In this way I could enable/disable core system apps without rooting everytime.
By the way, I love root, but with a custom ROM I barely use this function. I root my phone once in a while just update AdAway, then remove it to play PoGO. I have a OnePlus 2 with RR 5.8.0 (ResurrectionRemix-N-v5.8.0-20161209-oneplus2).
Any tips or hints on how this thing works would be helpful. How Android knows which apps you can disable or not?
Thanks in advance!

You can't disable system core apps on your non rooted android.
If you disable core apps to your rooted android then it makes your system unstable.
