Looking for a little advice on swap. Just making sure I did it correct and didn't miss anything. Typed "su" enter. "speedtweak.sh" enter. Chose from the list and pressed enter. If this post is annoying or unnecessary than feel free to let me know.I'm just looking for a little light.

Type:
"su"
"free"
without the quotes. It will show if swap is being used or not.

"free" does not require root privileges, so just typing "free" by itself will work fine.

What you did was change the speed settings of your kernel. As stated above, check if swap is enabled by typing "free" if it shows 000000s, then you can enable it (if you've flashed the enable zips), by typing:
sh data/imoseyon/swap.sh create
After that, if you reboot and type "free", you should have some values for swap instead of 00000s.
You can remove it with:
sh data/imoseyon/swap.sh create
oh and if you flash a new kernel you have to re-enable it

Welcome to the EternityProject DualCore Enhancement Thread!
What do we have here?
EternityPRJ_MCPU is a CPUFREQ governor that optimizes SMP doing a fast poweron/off of the second core.
It will make your device to act more smoothly and faster in some conditions.
How-To:
After downloading and extracting the module archive...
With ADB:
Code:
adb push cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko /data/local/
adb shell
su
insmod /data/local/cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko
exit
exit
Then use an Android app, like Script Manager, to autoload it everytime your device boots (optional) using this command (as root):
Code:
insmod /data/local/cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko
For activating it, open SetCPU and select the "eternityprj_MCPmot_hotplug" governor.
That's all.
Download:
Module: HERE
Source: HERE
Making it to work with every RAZR out there:
If this won't work on your RAZR, please post the output of this command:
Code:
cat /proc/kallsyms | grep cpu_up
...and your ROM version. I'll make it to work for your RAZR, too

Do the same commands you should do with adb shell, only thing is you need to put the module in /data/local in another way, e.g. cp /sdcard/Download/mymodule.ko /data/local/
Benchmarks performance will be the same, it'll work only in real world operations as it will only hotplug and use the CPU1 faster.

Yes. Copy the file into /data/local using root explorer or the like.
Then, with terminal emulator, just run the two lines of following 'adb shell' (su and insmod lines).

How does your device feel when you open an application? When you surf with your browser? When you play into menus etc?
Does it feel more reactive?
This does effectively add reactivity to your CPUs, thing that won't change benchmarks results because benchmarks will take the CPU to its MAX prior starting to calculate. That's why something that works in real world operations isn't making benchmarks results to be higher.
Yeah, after installing I definitely see a nice smooth scrolling performance, and unlocking is really fluid as well.
Great work, Kholk! You should take this over to Rootz, it's like a zombieland in there, everyone's doubting the phone and such. :x
i have installed SetCPU and activated the correct Governor, everything looks fine, no errors.
How do i know if this works? (i could not set a script with script manager).
Any permission need to be granted ?
read write execute??
@b.o.n.s
If you've selected the eternityprj_MCPmot_hotplug governor, it's working.
@xalainm
Just do what I wrote on the first post.
Though it's in the source, it's always good form to credit the original authors.
Edit: Oh, come on. You've even changed MODULE_AUTHOR.

That's because you're doing it out of a regular ol' command prompt.
There's two things you an do to alleviate that problem.
1) Follow this:
Right click on the My Computer icon and select the properties tab.
Select Advanced and click the Environment Variables button.
In the new dialog box double-click on Path (located under System Variables) and type in the full path location to the tools directory.
So essentially if your directory for ADB and fastboot are under C:\<SDK FOLDER NAME>\tools or C:\<SDK FOLDER NAME>\platform-tools, add those to the Path.
2) Go to the directory where ADB/Fastboot, hold SHIFT and then right click. It'll give you the option to open up a command prompt from that directory with should allow you to run those specific commands.
Also, getting back to the Paths. Make sure when you go to add a new path that you put a ; IMMEDIATELY after the very last one. Then absolutely no spaces right after that ;. So.... example coming up..
Let's say a path was C:\banana\peel, and you want to add your ADB folder. So it'll be typed like so, C:\banana\peel;C:\<SDK FOLDER>\tools and then you repeat the same exact thing for the next folder.
I really hope this helps!

Ive found the PATH section you told me about, but I dont understand what you mean by "the full path location to the tools directory".

Its okay. I was confused on this too because i ran the fastboot and it said it didn't recognize it. So i realized that fastbook has to be a program that i have to install. Eventually i figured out it was from the android sdk, but all the guides assume you have android sdk installed. They might want to consider adding something like "make sure you have android sdk installed and your Path set" in their guides. I know that would have saved me some trouble haha. ^_^
Yea that would have saved me some sleep haha I still can't get it to work though when I do CID exploit command prompt says no recognized ADB devices I think it might be cause I can't install HTC drivers (I hope cause I'm getting frustrated) haha will try again in next couple days

Ok facepalm doesnt work for 3.16 so you will need to downgrade to 3.15 using DirtyRacun method. Go to unlimited.io for instructions. Basically you can't use windows for this, so you will need to make ubuntu livecd and use that to go through the process

Make sure you extract files in a folder named DirtyRacun in a folder named Download
Launch terminal (click the ubuntu button, type "terminal" without quotes to find the program). Than type the following commands
cd Downloads
cd DirtyRacun
chmod 755 RabiesShot adb fastboot
After the last command, you should get the same prompt as before, i.e. /Downloads/DirtyRacun$. That is your signal that the command worked
Staying in the /Downloads/DirtyRacun directory in the terminal, type
sudo ./fastboot getvar mainver
It'll tell you the version of the software.
After that, follow the commands on unlimited.io
The key is to stay in the /Downloads/DirtyRacun directory in the terminal and just type the commands as said.
The only hiccup I had is during step 14 when, after typing
sudo ./RabiesShot
I had to manually reboot my phone to bootloader (fastboot)

Livecd doesn't save anything you do on your ubuntu. If you went out and back to windows, you'll have to start over
I suggest you take out enough time to get through this process from start to finish before going back to windows.

That I am not sure of, but if ubuntu recognizes the usb, than you should be able to transfer it to the Download/DirtyRacun folder from your flash drive.
