[?] [Script] V6 SuperCharger !! HTK & BulletProof Launchers! FIX MEMORY FOR ALL ANDRO
so far nobody has mentioned this, not even sure how many people look in this section of the forums, but here goes.
anyone out there willing to test and port this over for fascinate?

general info:
Main points:
- CUST-OOMIZER! Use your settings without Autokiller Memory Optimizer or Auto Memory Manager!
- For newer phones with lots of ram, use the 3rd slot to set how much free ram you want.
- If you have /system/etc/rootfs/init.mapphone_umts.rc, it makes a backup and edits that single file. This is nice and tidy.
... Thank to kabaldan for pointing out the importance of certain things.
- Most Custom ROMs - If you have a /system/etc/init.d folder, it creates 99SuperCharger in there and edits /data/local.prop (20 entries added for adjusting priorities and groupings). You shouldn't need to configure anything else.
- Stock ROMs - If you have neither, it creates /data/99SuperCharger.sh which you can load up on boot (run as root) with Script Manager. The OOM groupings work as well since it happens on boot in local.prop (20 entries added)
Note: For some reason, the minfree levels do not stick on some Custom ROMs. I don't know why this is. Maybe a bug in GingerBread?
........ If this happens to you, use Script Manager to load /system/etc/init.d/99SuperCharger "on boot" and "run as root"
In case of any error, you will find a related help file in the root of your SD card.
So... I think this covers ANY Android ROM
It also determines if you're using Script Manager and gives appropriate information/tips/help files depending on what other factors are present.
The above is really ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
The V6 SuperCharger script does everything!
Anything below is extra info!
It's just a single file... 806 lines (807 if you count the blank line at the end LOL)
So... What's it do?
It makes your phone FAST... super snappy with better multitasking!
If you read between the red lines below (parts 1-3), you'll see that at first it was only about minfrees and launcher redraw.
But after installing GingerBread, I saw that it needed more work than Froyo LOL.
Groupings were ALL MESSED UP and made NO SENSE to me whatsoever...
So I figured out how to group them more like CM6 (Froyo) but that still wasn't good enough...
I further rearranged the OOM Groupings and Priorites and lowmemorykiller values for a...
COMPLETE MEMORY MANAGEMENT FIX!
That's basically what this is
Faster than ever, no launcher redraws, multitasking is better... why?
Because it works with the lowmemorykiller and letting it work the way it's meant to work.
Also, because of the rearrangement, it works the same on all roms!
The problem with using minfree tweakers like AMM or AKMO is that it doesn't work the same on all roms.
Secondary apps may be in slot 3 on some roms but in slot 5 in others!
That's why you hear people comment "I tried AKMO but it didn't do anything..."
Most likely it didn't do anything because the apps weren't sitting where they were expected to be.
Upon installation, V6 SuperCharger will first clean up any previous supercharging so none of your files get cluttered.
But if you toggle between Hard To Kill and BulletProof launchers, the memory adjustments aren't affected.
So you can leave your minfrees at stock/default settings and apply the Hard To Kill Launcher and still get the OOM Grouping/Priority fixes.
So if you love your ROMs memory settings, just try the HTK Launcher/OOM Fix... you won't regret it
Ah, I used this script on my wife's Eris, and it did fix the speed a tad, no clue how it would react on an already fast phone, but hell, any little bit helps.

I don't think this will work with the fascinate "If you have /system/etc/rootfs/init.mapphone_umts.rc"... the fascinate is CDMA. This will only work with AT&T or T-mobile as they are UMTS

Yes it is on verizon's network. I'm guessing that file isn't doing anything on CDMA phones.
I'm not a dev but I do know my networks. I work for Alcatel-Lucent in which we translate & make the cell cabinet,towers, & customer networks communicate. We are the people that brought you verizons 3g & LTE technology. Currently working on AT&T's UMTS & LTE networks. Yes i am the inside inside man. We provide the Base Station and most routers and make them communicate for the providers... Sprint, verizon/alltel, nTelos, cricket, metroPCS, etc...

And what's that got to do with oom groupings, priorities, minfrees home launcher and androids lowmemorykiller?

Wow... chill out dude. I saw umts at the end of the file and simply was just saying that these phones are cdma. I already said I'm not a dev. Comments like yours make people not even want to comment. I'm not new to roms, rooting, etc... I started out with the original droid, then D2 and I've had the fascinate ever since it came out. Rooted & started out with superclean when it became available. Geeze
Yes well in post 5 I pointed out that it also looks for the init.d folder and if not an alternative method by using the data folder.
Has nothing to do with networks.
It has to do with which file or method is used to implement the tweaks depending on what options are available.

Yeah I tried this on a friends Fascinate and it dropped dead, wouldnt boot up.
Had to Odin up and restore back to stock.
I noticed my friends swype keyboard would lag even after restore back to stock.
thus the reason to try this script in the first place.The fasciante is decent lil bugger.
Its too bad I sing its praises on Evo thought, it really kicks butt.
im using this right now on my fascinate running miui 1.9.9 and its working flawlessly... three 3g tweak also works great. thanks zeppelinrox
It works with the fascinate, I use it constantly, and it doesn't need to be ported, the author stated it should work on nearly any device/ROM setup. Just get Script Manager app from the market, open app, go to settings, browse as root, then run the V6 script. It will give instructions as it runs.

Just ran the script last night, while it took me a while to fidget with it and figure out what option was best for me I can't believe that cm7 could be any smoother but there is a definite difference after running the script, with no lag, or home screen redraw, my phone is as smooth if not smoother at 1GHz.then it was at 1.5GHz before the script...just want to say it was painless easy and really made a huge difference...thanks a lot!
On a side note the battery calibration that was linked in the op does seem to work but I had to figure out when to pull the battery since the original instructions where on the milestone, either way great job and thanks again, I'll run this script after any rom I go to from here on out!

I ran it last night as well. I cannot really tell a difference. What setting are you running?
Option 8 and then option 12, set to browse root, and run as root in the first config screen...afterwords reboot and run option 1...it will tell you if your home screen was easy to kill or not and gives you a list of minfrees...I had to downgrade my busy box to 1.18.2.to get everything working
Edit: I used script manager to run the script and then put the widget on my home screen to easily access it...if you run option 1 and it says your home screen is bullet proof then it did work...I seem to get much better 3g connectivity and better download speeds.

Hope someone can help out with that one:
Is there a way of setting up Superuser (and, respectively, other important apps) not as "empty_app" and avoid it being killed by Autokiller when it reaches the first limit of the preset? I know about "lower oom value", but Im looking for a more permanent solution. If there isnt such option, then is there a way of prioritizing and creating an order in a category, for example which app goes first and which last in the empty_app category? Does apps location make any difference, like "first go /data apps, then /system" kind of thing? Thanks in advance for the help!
Anyone????
Try V6 Supercharger, you can bulletproof certain apps, which lowers the oom value, and it will stick through a reboot. If it doesn't stick, you can have Script Manager run a file it creates on boot which will restore the settings every reboot.
It was originally made for the Milestone, but should work on any phone/ROM. Just do a quick search, you should find it.

Task killers that automatically kill stuff are a bad idea in general. It is much better to use something like autorun manager or gemini app manager to disable autorun for pesky apps that insist on always running in the background. Of course, running a task killer manually (I use ATK) every so often is fine but avoid the automatic stuff.

Thanks a lot, man! Do you know how I can add init.d support to my HTC Amaze? Ive seen different approaches for different devices, is there a more universal one? I was about to use dsixda's android kitchen which is for htc devices, but it doesnt support Amaze and its no longer in development...
Here are a few tweaks to get XRON/CM7/CM9 running a bit smoother
Make sure to create a Nandroid before applying these tweaks, just in case something goes wrong
Smoother Scrolling - for XRON2.9 Deodexed/CM9 (unless you apply the mod yourself).
Files are attached, make sure to rename the file to framework.jar.
The instructions to replace the framework.jar are included in the original post under D. Installing steps.
Or you can use ADB:
Code:
adb push c:\path-to-framework\framework.jar /system/framework
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/framework/framework.jar
This mod really helps smooth out menu scrolling, most noticeable while browsing long lists like in Titanium Backup or Root Explorer, I've noticed a speed boost under Youtube as well (CM9). This made a bigger difference on XRON, but still makes a notable difference under CM9.
Reduce Lag - For XRON/CM7/CM9a0.5
Up threshold tweak, under advanced settings with CPU Master/SetCPU - 30-40% should provide you with a lag-free experience.
Use SetCPU instead of CPU Master for CM9a0.5 with BrickedKernel.
This tweak will get rid of most of the jumpiness in heavy applications, like Cordy or Opera Mobile. I ran the TP before and after side-by-side with the iPad 2 and it went from about 30-40% the speed of the iPad 2 to about 80-90% (Opera Mobile VS Safari). A big improvement. The downside to this tweak is you will experience worse battery life.
Reduce Lag - For older versions of XRON (before 2.8) and CM7
In the build.prop make these changes:
1. Change debug.composition.type=c2d to debug.composition.type=gpu
2. Add debug.sf.hw=1 (or change to match if it already there)
This build.prop change will help speed up the UI dramatically if you are still running CM7 3.5 or an older version of XRON.
Improve Auto-Rotation Speed - CM9a0.5
Included in the cm9a0.5-framework.jar are modifications that should help speed up auto-rotation as explained here and here.
These tweaks made a dramatic difference on my TP. Good luck!
These will probably speed up MIUI too, but you'll have to do the framework.jar mod yourself. If you do, feel free to share the jar and I'll add it to the post.
Off-topic, but I booted up webOS for the first time in months today to update it. Damn, that thing is slow.
Interesting, I'll try out #1 and #2. Thanks for putting it into a separate thread since I wouldn't have noticed it otherwise.

WebOS, running an overclocked kernel at close to 1.8GHz on both cores, is extremely smooth. The multitasking and saving of current app states is excellent. Too bad there's not much more than the browser, email, and Angry Birds and a few Gameloft games to put it to use.
Going to try out these tweaks, thanks!

I really like WebOS as well, HP/Palm really hit the nail on the head concerning the user experience and multitasking. With all the Preware tweaks and the device overclocked it is quite fast.
But the web experience is still too sluggish for my taste, especially when compared to Android running Opera Mobile with the tweaks above or an iPad 2.. And of course there is a major lack of applications for WebOS.
Thanks for posting. I'm a TP newb running CM7 3.5. It sounds like 2 and 3 are applicable to CM7. I'm going to give 3 a try.
Are there any other general tips for CM7 or the Touchpad in general?

The first one will work on CM7 as well, but you'll have to mod the framework.jar yourself as explained in this post.
You could also try my framework.jar, but it may break your install (if you try it make sure to create a nandroid first).
Yeah, it broke my wifi even though I'm on Xron. I'll just have to do it manually later

Which version? It should have no problems on 2.9 deodexed, I've done it multiple times.
Make sure you set the permissions/owner the same as the old file.
It was 2.9
However, I suspect the problem might have been something else as restoring the nandroid didn't fix it and I had to go back to an even older nandroid.

The main problem with webOS is it lacks text reflow. The iOS and WP7 also lack it. I don't know why Android is the only OS that gets this right. I actually wish I had text reflow on my desktop/laptop browsers, and occasionally boot into a x86 Android virtual machine just for specific sites whose fonts don't play well with Chrome (since Google removed font size increases years ago and never replaced it).
I also don't understand why no one complains about the lack of text reflow in other OS's. Maybe I'm just blind or something.
BTW (a little more on topic), do these tweaks work with ICS?

I'm not sure. The framework.jar mod might, but I have not tried it yet. The up threshold tweak would probably help, but I haven't figured out how to change that yet. The build.prop tweak did not seem to change anything for me.
Updated OP with info/tweaks for CM9.
Are we supposed to rename CM9-framework.jar to framework.jar in order to replace the framework.jar that's already present in /system/framework?

Correct.
Create a nandroid beforehand just in case. Also, make sure that you set the permissions/owner the same as the original file.
If you are running a different variation I can't guarantee it will work, it has only been tested with CM9A0 and CM9A0.5.
For some bizarre reason the only thing that shows up under the "Advanced" Tab is "sampling rate". I've tried both CPU Master and SetCPU, and all I can see is sampling rate. Nothing else shows up.

On CM9 you've gotta use Bricked-Kernel and SetCPU, otherwise the settings won't show.

Okay, finally got it to work. I had been confused regarding the presence of the "brickedkernel" and "cyanogen mod" option in the boot up list. When I went to brickedkernel wi-fi didn't work, but in the CMMod option it did. I finally realized that when I had flashed back to Alpha 0, then back to .5 (to correct a boot loop issue), the Bricked Wi-Fi modules must have been replaced. So I reflashed the Bricked kernel and Wi-Fi worked. Finally went to SetCPU and surprise! Threshold was already at 90% lol. Opera is still jumpy though so I give up. I mean it's "smoother", but not as smooth as on my Charge.
My "Scaling" is set to "ondemand" (with max freq. of 1.56 GHz), Sampling rate set to 50,000, and "Ignore Nice Load" and "Powersave Bias" are both set to 0. I'll try to set Sampling Rate to 10000 and see what happens.
Edit: Nope, no change. Ah well...

Yeah, I have it at 30%/50000/1.5ghz and it is quite smooth, smoother than the stock browser at least.. But not quite as smooth as my Epic.
I'm guessing that once HW Acceleration is working 100% it'll speed things up a bit more.
I'm on cm9 a.05 booted to Bricked and still don't see anything else except sampling under setcpu | advanced
Normally when I run into issues, I google them or find answers all over the interweb or older threads. But this time, I've ran into a wall. I just flashed the Infinity rom by Nims and it comes with Lagfree and TurboBoost preinstalled. Phone runs smoothly as hell even when clocked at 480. Now the problem is, it kills random apps to free up RAM. Including HeyWire and WhatsApp which I need and use a lot.
Is there a way to exclude them from getting killed? I honestly don't know what to do this time since its not a task killer and I can't put them on exclude.
This might not help, but why not adjusting the minfree values?

Isn't that another script? The Infinity rom already comes preloaded with LagFree and TurboBoost. Won't more scripts mess up performance?

Lucky you got the replies.. I asked same question some days before. I searched internet a lot. But found Google didn't provide such a facility in it's APIs. Activity Stack in Android is automatically handled, can't be altered by APP. If it'd possible. Imagine What would happen when some n00b locks all apps in his Android device!
Here all you can do is, reduce the priority how frequent your app should be killed. In other words, exactly what adeklipse said.

Yeah. That's why I decided to ask. I rarely do. I solve all my stuff by my self and ask questions when I reach walls like these. But as for the minfree values, since they're scripts (Lagfree & Turboboost) can it be edited?
What if I delete the scripts and install Ram Manager instead? That app from the XDA developer. Anyone knows if its gonna be the same performance?

Where did you hear that? MinFree are the "values" not the "Scripts". For "very" elaborated info I'd say google it. And Since they are values, the changes will be reverted automatically by the init.rc call in your boot image at the boot time of your phone, until and unless you set them to load itself on boot time by app like "MinFree Manager". I have used "MinFree Manager" app & that app itself said if anything goes wrong, reboot should restore back the values.

I have been using RAM Manager & what I observed is, it changed permanently the way android handled the RAM. Even if you reboot, the changes were there. & it "really" did what it said. I changed the way it handled the RAM frequently.

No, no, no. I meant since they're scripts, meaning LagFree and TurboBoost. And about ram manager, is it safe to assume I can uninstall the 2 scripts and replace them with that app? Do you think performance will be the same? Lol I'm sorry I'm asking so much. These scripts came preloaded with the rom and even when I flashed them manually in ICS Final, they didn't work this good by freeing so much ram.
About to just make a backup, delete them and install ram manager.

I am always kinda thrifty in applying these mods cause I know I "have to" use my SGA for long time. What I always felt insecure about was kernels. So I haven't flashed any custom kernels ever. & therefore, I have not tried those scripts either. So I can't tell you difference between them and RAM manager's performance. But what I assume, deleting scripts and just trying RAM Manager's performance wouldn't hurt you, if you've gone this far.. would it? Share your experience here.

Yeah, I did it. But I left some files from the TurboBoost script for the touchscreen. It was acting like its old self without it so I flashed it again and left some files. That's the only mod I have on my phone.
Got Ram Manager set on Balance (Multi Task). Working great for now. Haven't found any problems
Guys, I know that that there is a Q&A thread but i am tired of this and i need help fast. Ok so I flashed the witeJoker ftf then i flashed 7.2.6 sirkay's kernel and then i factory resetted and installed JJ's 3.0 TEST. I ran Tianium backup. Restored the all 120 apps with all data. Ran ScriptManager. And ran teh V6 rc8.2 supercharger script.Then i realised that services jar are not patched. I patched it trough phonewith web app. Downloaded the services.jar restarted and when i ran the script i setted to unledded and i got 100% superchargerd. But wheni play templerun or capture photos with camera360 or browse or use youtube whenihit home there is nothing but wallpaper like its not supercharged. Please i cant go without supercharge. Otherwise i have to go to gingerbread witch sucks

Did you wipe dalvik cache...that often fixes unexpected behavior. I am pretty sure that you can do that now....you won't lose any of your apps.....
If you have more than one launcher installed sometimes the supercharger will protect the "wrong" one. So you need to make sure that the launcher you are using is actually the one who's priority is being changed. The output from the supercharger script will tell you which launcher is getting its priorities adjusted. The easiest way to do make sure that the priority of the "right" launcher is being adjusted is to only have 1 launcher installed. Back up and uninstall the unwanted launchers using TB. You can restore them if you change your mind...if you restore APP+Data most of your launcher settings will be restored. Before you do this, make sure that the launcher you want to keep is installed into /system/app.
JJ v3.0 has ROM control which also contains a memory manager that may "readjust" your Supercharger settings. The default LMK in ROM control is 49Mb, whereas unleaded sets it to 28Mb. It looks to me like the ROM control settings run after the 99supercharger init.d script, so you either want to run a Powershift script (you should find these scripts in /sdcard/V6_Supercharger/PowerShift_Scripts) or change the setting in ROM control to 24Mb, so it is more in line with your supercharger settings.
It has been reported on the Supercharger thread that having both zram and the supercharger can cause lags (but I don't remember seeing anything about launcher redraws), so you can try inactivating zram (if it is active)....I have not experienced any problems with having them both active.
So the default priority of the launcher is +6 in ICS, so it is pretty easy for it to get killed by the android memory manager. The supercharger should make it Hard-to-Kill which changes the priority to +1. If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and you are still getting launcher redraws...then bullet proof the launcher (it is one of the options in the supercharger script). This will make the priority of the launcher -16!!!! So it will be the last thing killed by the android memory manager. If you do this and the launcher is still getting wiped out then something else is going on.
If you are like me....you will be tempted to bullet proof a whole bunch of apps....don't! Once you run a bullet proof app it will tend to stay in memory (cause the android memory manager won't kill it)...soon your memory will fill up with bullet proof apps and the performance of your phone will be soooooo slow!

Thank you but I have already found a solution soo!? !?
Sent from my ST18i using XDA
The point of this thread is to put together a list of optimizations that can be done on the stock rom with root access. I figured there would be others like me who can't unlock (or don't want to) but now can root who might be interested and all contributions will be added.
At the end of this the Prime feels much faster. I think most of it can work for the TF300 and TF700 too. Thanks to so many out there who make this possible and I appreciate all feedback in comments.
NOTE: This involves rooting your device and doing dangerousish stuff. I am not responsible if your Prime softbricks or if you have trouble installing updates. If you mess up and it softbricks you might lose all your data on the Prime. My official answer to updates is that every step has backups or checkboxes, so just undo everything after the pre-amble before you update.
If a tweak is done wrong and you can't boot, unbrick via these directions (data will be lost!):
Download latest firmware from Asus site.
Unzip this file once - it contains a zip inside it. Rename this zip to EP201_SDUPDATE.ZIP
Copy the file to the root of a FAT32 formatted MicroSD card
Turn the tablet off via the power button.
Now turn it on holding down the Volume Down button on the tablet
In a minute you will be in the recovery screen. Hit volume up.
Wait for it to get done. It can take a while.
Pre-Amble:
First thing, update to the newest Jellybean Asus has given us and root it using this method (thanks Morlok8k and djrbliss and sorry again Morlok8k).
Install Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and protect that root:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper
Install Quick boot to get an easy way to reboot:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...medium=appbrain_web&utm_campaign=appbrain_web
Now lets optimize:
1. Get Rid of Bloat (Undo this step before installing updates)
Use Titanium or the built in disable function under settings to freeze some of the apps. This gets back a lot of your RAM and cuts down on the boot time. Here is what I have disabled/frozen (don't disable something you use), but note some can only be disabled with Titanium:
@vibe fun center
App Backup
App Locker
Asus Email (I don't use it)
Asus FAcebook Poster
Asus MyZine
Asus Sync
Asus Weather
com.asus.pcsynclauncher
com.asus.quicksearch
com.asus.youtube search
Email
Exchange Services
Google Play Books
Google Play Movies and TV
MyCloud
MyDesktop
MyDictionary
MyLibrary
Nvidia Glowball Demo Installer
Street View
Supernote
Talkback
Webstorage
Zinio

2. Install an Ad blocker.
My choice is Adaway:
https://code.google.com/p/ad-away/
This will speed up browsing.
3. Disable FSYNC
(HUGE PERFORMANCE BOOST BUT SOFTBRICK RISK IF YOU DO IT WRONG)
First of all, before we get started know that disabling FSYNC has some risks. But its the single biggest tweak you can do. Will let you update or install apps and still do something else.
Secondly, please go here and thank eminent1410 for inadvertently fixing our Primes. He did it for his OPTIMUS Z ROM but we benefit!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203345
Steps to install:
Download the zip file named FSYNCFIX.zip attached to this post and extract the files in that zip to your Prime.
Open Root Explorer and go to /system/lib folder. Rename libsqlite.so and libsqlite_jni.so to libsqlite.so.bak and libsqlite_jni.so.bak respectively.
Copy the libsqlite.so and libsqlite_jni.so files that came from the attached zip (using root explorer for example) to the /system/lib folder (Mount that folder as RW if necessary).
Set permissions on the two files to rw-r--r-- (picture of what it looks like attached to post)
Reboot.
If something went wrong your prime will not boot but will be stuck at the booting screen. At that point use the directions at the top of the post.
CREDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691669
4. Fix Entropy
This is a big deal to fix lagginess. Confirmed by richardmlea to improve the browser. Also helps with apps that have lists in my experience.
You can get Seeder from the Play Store and support the developer (or search and find the thread on XDA):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lcis.seeder&hl=en
Run the app, turn on everything and tell it to start at boot.
5. Replace build.prop (Undo this step before installing updates)
(softbrick risk and might cause problems with upgrading if not undone)
Credit to MR.WOOKIE for the base I used to make the build.prop. It improves all sorts of stuff in little ways- network improvements, UI improvements, JPEG viewing improvements.
To install:
Download the attached correct (US or WW depending on what Prime you have) build.prop.zip files from this post and extract it to your Transformer.
NOTE: Currently the attached build.props are only for the TF201. Will brick other Transformers.
Using Root Explorer or something, go to your /system folder and find build.prop and rename it to build.prop.bak
Then copy the build.prop file from the zip to the /system folder and change its permissions to rw-r--r-- (picture of what it looks like attached to post).
Reboot
6. Install the Pimp My Rom app (Undo this step before installing updates)
NOTE: This step must be done AFTER step 5 if you are going to do step 5. If you don't do step 5 the using Root Explorer or something, go to your /system folder and find build.prop and rename it to build.prop.bak before using Pimp My Rom.
Get it here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androguide.pimp.my.rom
I did a lot with this app, give it Five Stars!
Under Tools:
First I activated "Universal Init.d Support". Then confirm it works
Entropy generator is much like Seeder, but not as good.
Under Tweaks:
Under "Network and Internet" I enabled "Wifi Connect Speed Tweak" and "Faster Media Streaming" at the top part. Under Init.d ans Sysctl Tweaks I enabled "avoid Time-Wait," "Block Redirects," Block Source-Routing," and "IPv4 Tweaks." Now the play store doesn't act up any more saying it can't load.
Under "Android Features" I enabled "Hardware acceleration," Force CPU rendering,"
Under "Miscellaneous Tweaks" I enabled "Optimize sqlite Databases," "Ext4 File-Systems tweaks," Internal SD-Card I/O Tweaks," External SD-Card I/O Tweaks," and "Zipalign all APKS at each boot." These changes make a huge difference in the performance of almost everything.
7. OOM and SD cache
This will help responsiveness and RAM management. As per nhshah7
Download Kernel tuner:
Go to OOM and set it to 1000 aggressive.
Go to Misc and set the SD cache to 4096
8. Wipe the Dalvik Cache
Thanks to pooblej for this one.
Download this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.j.y.daddy.customizer
Open the app.
Go to "SET"
Select the "Wipe Dalvik-Cache" option.
It will then reboot with a pretty long boot time.
9. Trim
Do this last.
Use the lagfix program to TRIM your Prime:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix&hl=en
Just open it and hit Run.
Extra Optional Stuff to do
10. Install Browser2RAM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34885711&postcount=58
Let it run as root. Can work with stock browser or Chrome. Thanks qskile for pointing it out and t3hSteve for the apk.
Personally I think this eats a lot of RAM and is not needed when you do all the other tweaks, but it is FAST! Hard to resist probably.
11. Install and use PieControls
These are all the rage now. Getting this feature is as easy as installing this apk to use the LMT Launcher:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
Here is a good guide that goes over setting up this feature with pictures:
http://highonandroid.com/android-ap...rooted-android-smartphonetablet-lmt-launcher/
Things left to do:
1. Data2SDish hack
2. Volume boost that works with Jellybean (Don't try anything Beats it won't work)
3. V6 SuperCharger - Can cause more problems than solutions unless done right and I need to research more. Kernel tuner goes a long way.
Thank you in advance for any and all responses or thanks.
I also wanted to know about the build tweaks now possible if we can root stock ...
I will let you know what I discover. So far the biggest boosts are browser2ram and freezing all the Asus bloat. It already feels like a different tablet now.
Set performance mode to performance. Enables it to clock at 1.4 ghz (wish we could go higher with stock kernel!)
download Kernel tuner, go to OOM, presets and set it to 1000 aggressive. Also in kernel tuner, set SD cache to 4096.
I didn't find seeder to actually help. Also download Rebooter from the play store and "Hot boot" if you slow down. It essentially kills all non-system apps.
Haven't tried the other apps you linked to the play store. My prime FLIES now
Edit: also have not tried build prop tweaks. Don't see a need just yet, might affect future OTA upgrading as well.
EDIT: Talking about performance, for browsers, I use dolphin with dolphin's jet pack. Doesn't have flash, but sunspider shows this to consistently be the fastest between any other browser on the market. Stock and Chrome come in slightly behind (in that order).
Maybe it is just the euphoria of getting root but seeder works great for me. first thing i installed after rooting. The stockbrowser and xda homepage (showing all devices) would crash the browser every time (stop responding, and require restarting) with seeder it is fine. I even uninstalled seeder to test if imagined the effect but didn't. For me seeder makes the stock browser fully usable. I dont think the browser has stopped responding since i installed seeder.
I will have a go at some of the other tweeks now.
poofyhairguy, Good idea to compile a list of tweeks, maybe you can keep the OP tidy and list and tweeks that other posters suggest in the first post.
One from me that you have already mentioned, to increase the volume get Volume+ from the play store. There is a free version and a paid version that claims to increaseit more. Maybe someone can suggest something better for the same job and completly free.
Also there was/is an app or tweek to improve the touchscreen persission and sensativity. Anyone know what thats called?
More idea's....?
Afternoon all, I have done most of the tweeks and i am seeing excelent gains in smoothness and responsiveness.
Quick question, i have disabled loads of the bloat apps using settings/apps/all selecting the app and selecting disable, but is there any advantage using titanium backup to freeze or remove the bloat app's?

Don't remover, just freeze it. If you need to OTA, it checks to make sure all the Asus apps are still there.
Also interesting tidbit on seeder. I'll try it again.
As far as changing governors, I could never get it to stick on anything other than interactive...?

Looking into it volume plus no longer works in jellybean. So something else is needed.
I have updated OP with new findings.
Just PMed a mod to move this to General. I'll try Pimp My Rom when I get some time this week and report back if it works or not!
Please keep this list going - Everyone will need to know these things as more people root.

I plan to. I am going to keep working on it until we get as much as we can get out of it. Plus I have crosslinked this guide on the TF300T and TF700 forums.
OP has been updated with my recent attempts.
Nice tweaks without root.
Maybe some things will work with my s3 because my Prime is rooted from the first second
Kind of slow at work tonight so I know what I'll be doing. :good:. Any benchmark numbers before and after doing all this?
I used to use Volume + but is seemed to quit working on JB. I am now using Music Volume EQ. It may not boost your volume as much as Volume + but it works well and I like the EQ, virtualizer and Bass boost functions. I just wish they would optimize their interface for tablets, it's kind of small for a 10 inch screen.
Music Volume EQ
One thing I've noticed with Music Volume EQ is sometime you have to open the app (or press the widget) for it to turn on. I haven't tested it if this is just after a reboot or it happens randomly.
EDIT - At this point all I can is WOW. This stuff really works. Pimp My Rom is the bomb. I've done everything in the list but install Seeder. With Pimp I don't think it's necessary but I may try it later. Also I can't get the CPU manager to boot into Performance mode with Pimp. Not really a big deal since ever since I've had my Prime and rebooted the first thing I do is to switch to Performance mode. It's like second nature to me now. I'll keep messing with it, it's probably something I'm doing.
Thanks for this very good Thread!!!
Thanks for this guide. At least I got root again easily. I did all the tweaks, lets see is the device any better.

I found a libsqlite.so that was compatible. I promise as soon as I make sure it is safe today I will post how to do everything.
do you know what the risk is? ie if an app force closes and the TF201 reboots - ie is it safe?
Please let me know your thoughts...

This post basically sums up the risk:

I think it is safe enough given that. The ROMing community here has bought into it 100% and so if it was a big deal it wouldn't be used. I never would make my life depend on my Prime.
And I almost can't explain how much faster it is with FSYNC off. Like everything else in the guide put together doesn't do as much. It is amazing.
