[Script] V6 SuperCharger! HTK & BulletProof Launchers! The ONLY Android MEMORY FIXER!
Hey guy's. Now that we got S-OFF, you can try this script that im using that makes a HUGE difference in my phone, and how snappy it is. I didnt see this posted here anywhere, so here it is. THIS IS NOT MY WORK, it's just something I stumbled upon, and every Android phone should use this! This script was made by a VERY talented developer named "Zepplinrox", so make sure you hit his THANKS button while your there downloading the script. I didn't copy and paste his work cuz if you have questions, you'll have to ask him on his thread.
LINK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
This is how I got it to work on my phone:
... Do NOT run the V6 SuperCharger install script at boot!
1. Download the V6 Supercharger script and put it on the root of your sdcard.
-You must have busybox version 1.18.2 or lower for this to work. Any version higher will give you endless errors. It's all in Zepplinrox's thread.
-Go to market and download "Script manager". when you go to open it, first select "menu", then select "more", then select "advanced" and scroll down until you see "browse as root" and check that box. Then wait a few seconds and grant superuser permissions when the window pops up.
2. Load the script (V6_SuperCharger_for_Android*.txt) into Script Manager and select "Run as Root."
3. Touch the screen for the soft keyboard or slide out the keyboard and get SuperCharged! Just pick an option!
4. READ the script's output!
5. Afterwards, READ the html HELP FILE in the root of your SD Card!
6. Disable "Lock Home in Memory" if your ROM has this option.
7. Optional: For a quick status check, you can put a Script Manager widget for V6 SuperCharger on you desktop
Here's another link to a couple other scripts that you will want to use.

The instructions are in post #1125
IF you like this, then please hit Zepplinrox's thanks button, and if you have anymore, hit my thanks button. If this is a re-post, I'm truely sorry...
YOU MUST BE USING BUSYBOX VERSION 1.18.2 OR LOWER FOR THIS TO WORK!!!
Everything I did kept bringing up not found errors. So I gave up.
OP you should ask mods to move this to development section so people know.

I'm using Busybox 1.16.0 but it brings up not found errors but I think it's still working. I chose the 512megaRAM option. How do I know if it's working or not?
I ran this on the O.G. Evo and loved it. Worked wonders. Dev definitely did a great job on this script.

You look in /system/etc/init.d , and there's some extra files in that folder. Read Zepplinrox's thread and it will tell you how to check

So much unneeded formatting and exclamation points It's a major turn-off for potential users.
EDIT: Also, I'm unable to install the earlier version of BusyBox.
WHAT!!!
LOL
busybox v1.16.2 should be the lowest version that you should use.
I didn't think people ran versions lower than that

What are you talking about? Exclamation? Go to the market and search,"busybox" and look for "busybox installer" by JRummy16. Install it and open it up and allow for superuser permissions, then select ok. Then under the first box select busybox 1.18.2 ( there are a bunch of choices) then select install. After this, you should be foot to go forward with the tweak process..

alot of stuff is being said but i dont get the basics.
is this helping to save battery and memory and wont mess up anything?
FYI I had uploaded a new Kick Ass Kernel script
Evertime I attempt to run this script I get
exec sh '/mnt/sdcard/3GTurboChargerInstallerUpdate2.sh'
# sh '/mnt/sdcard/3GTurboChargerInstallerUpdate2.sh'
sh: Can't open /mnt/sdcard/3GTurboChargerInstallerUpdate2.sh
Locked & Loaded
Also when I run the kickass script I get
exec sh '/mnt/sdcard/98KickAssKernelTweaksInstallerUpdate2.sh'
# t/sdcard/98KickAssKernelTweaksInstallerUpdate2.sh'
sh: Can't open /mnt/sdcard/98KickAssKernelTweaksInstallerUpdate2.sh
Locked & Loaded
So after trying every method I could I'm unable to get this to work. Keep getting the same error. So I'm done. Moving on now.
Locked & Loaded
Thank you for this! I have removed autokiller and have switched to this method since it seems to work a lot better.
What are the best settings for the evo 3d? I am using the SuperRAM 2 but feel that I could be using a better setting?
Depends on what you want?
How much free ram do you normally have and at what point would the phone feel laggy?
btw, I made a change to 3g TurboCharger that needs testing...
Edits to build.prop...
Code:
ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.gprsclass=34
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28
ro.ril.enable.a53=1
ro.ril.enable.a52=0
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295
ro.ril.htcmaskw1=268449905
ro.ril.hsupa.category=9
ro.ril.def.agps.mode=2
ro.ril.def.agps.feature=1
ro.ril.enable.sdr=1
ro.ril.enable.gea3=1
ro.ril.enable.fd.plmn.prefix=23402,23410,23411
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
Difference between this and update 2:
ro.ril.gprsclass=34 (instead of 12)
ro.ril.htcmaskw1=268449905 (instead of 14449)
I've actually seen gprsclass=32 in the past but 12 is the most common setting so I had used 12.
After researching today, seems that 32 would indeed be better than 12 BUT there is a new gprs class 34 so this would be a first for testing it at 34! (as far as I know) lol
So, I'd be interested in seeing if this is better than the 3G TurboCharger update 2 tweak!
Seems like this could be useful but I have no idea wtf to do with it. Some instructions would help. The html help file on my sd card is nonexistent

I found this easy little mod while poking around on the internet today. What it does is makes absolutely certain that launcherpro stays in memory (apparently there can be a problem with this even if you have the checkbox checked). Now by no means was LauncherPro slow to begin with, it is already the fastest launcher, IMO, available. But since performing this mod ive not had a single instance with any lag what so ever with launcherpro, whether is be coming out of apps or waking from a screen off/phone sleep mode.
No this wont fix the FC on reboot issue...
So open Terminal Emulator on your phone.
Type (or copy and paste) the following, hitting ENTER between each line:
su
echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 > /data/local.prop
reboot
If for whatever reason you experience some adverse affects with this you can simple go into any File Manager with root access and delete the /data/local.prop file you created and reboot your phone. I personally have not experience any negative effects as of yet (several hours using this mod).
EDIT: This mod should work with whatever launcher you have on your phone. I've only tested it with LauncherPro however. But the idea is that it locks the launcher in memory, any launcher.
EDIT: also, if you would like to make the file manually to store on your sd card so you can copy/paste it after a factory reset you just need to use a file manager to create a file and name it local.prop
Then you will need to open it with a text editor and type the following and save: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
From there it just gets pasted to the /data partition to make it active (not the data folder on the SD card btw).
EDIT (05/26/2011): Ok uploaded a working .zip that can be flashed from clockwork recovery.
EDIT (05/26/2011): Also added a flashable .zip that will remove the mod from your phone for whatever reason. Just flash from clockwork recovery.

Im getting no lag what so ever when waking/unlocking the phone. LauncherPro no longer has to do any redraws so unlocking is super smooth.
EDIT: On a side note, this should work with any launcher. What it does is keep the current launcher in memory at all times, so it should work regardless of launcher. So anyone using another launcher such as adw or Go who wants to test this and share their results it would be appreciated.
Just confirmed no lag when swiping to unlock screen

Wow! This actually worked. It wasn't faster as much as smoother (which I thought impossible with Launcher Pro lol!) Well thanks!

LauncherPro v0.8.5 = WIN. So smooth its rediculous!
Is this something that needs to be done each time I flash a new nightly?

no. The only time you'll need to re-do it is if you do a factory reset. It persists through normal cache/dalvik wipe/rom flash.
On a side note, you after you create the local.prop file using the method in the first post you can make a copy of it to save to your sd card so that you can just paste it to /data for those times where you want to do a factory reset.
EDIT: updated first posts with directions to create the file manually.
WOW, my Aria is flying....
And, I can confirm that this patch works just fine with the stock ADW launcher on CM7.
I hate to think of all the hours I spent playing with different governors trying to eliminate "lag". This little patch blows them all away, even with the phone set back to stock, non-OC'd speeds.
Thanks...
Seems to have helped GO Launcher Ex in the smoothness department, nice find.

All went well on my aria. the zip flash with no problem. love this little hack. ADW is so smooth on my aria now, loving it. thxs. cm7 n77
But on my nook it was not so good. cm7 n69 The flash was aborted by CWR the error message was "Amend scripting is go longer supported. please switch to edify scripting" Im no dev but I thinks this error is because CWR on the nook is 3.0.x and does not support the older script. so I try to do this through terminal of the nook with no luck, Im a noobe with the terminal and Im sure i just enter the code wrong.
I was typing:
echo ENTER
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 ENTER and then I'll get "denied"
------------------edited--------
I see it now, I see all 3 lines of code. last night all I saw was the main line "echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 > /data/local.prop" and totally miss the other 2 lines "su" and "reboot"
I think the right way is:
su ENTER
echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 > /data/local.prop ENTER
reboot ENTER
---------------------------
I'll try again tonight. Thanks, love this hack

Yea that zip I posted is not compatible with cwm 3.x +.
And your very last edit is correct.
"echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 > /data/local.prop" is all one line.

Got this to work through the terminal with my nook and its working nicely. The nook screen respond was never that bad but this little mod just makes it also smoother. I just don't understand why the launcher makers don't add this as a default setting. Thanks, this is awesome.
I was just wondering if anyone knows if this little mod is similar to cyanogenmod's performance setting of "lock home in memory". is it basically the same thing? and is it safe to use both.
it is safe to use both.
this just insures that that setting wont be overridden.
These steps are intended for use on the stock Droid X2. I'm sure they will be close to the same on other phones, but if your phone is not a stock Droid X2, know that the steps may be different or you may get unfavorable results. Always backup anything you don't want to lose.
Before even considering this, READ ALL THE STEPS. Then READ IT AGAIN.
There are two tweaks recommended here: V6_Supercharger and SD Speed Increase.
Requirements for V6_Supercharger:
1. Rooted Phone (Gingerbreak 1.20)
2. Script Manager (free on Market)
3. BusyBox 1.18.2 or earlier
NOTE: I haven't confirmed the script works on 2.3.4... You may want to use the latest version of the script if you have 2.3.4
Installing/Using the script:
1. Install BusyBox. There are a number of ways to get this... it comes as part of Titanium Backup, for example. If you're not sure if you have it, or not, you can use BusyBox Installer (free on Market) to detect whether or not you have it and install it if you don't.
- Note: BusyBox Installer tells you which version you have installed on the main screen after it loads... it should be in a list that starts with "Your device is Rooted"
- Note: Make sure you don't install BusyBox 1.19 or anything newer than 1.18.2
2. Download the script. Save it in a place where you'll be able to find it.
3. Launch Script Manager and find the downloaded file (usually in /mnt/sdcard/download). Long-press no it and select rename, then delete the .txt from the end. You should have a file named "V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update8.sh"... Press once on the script file to load it into Script Manager, check the 'Run as Root' box (DO NOT select "Run at Boot") and push "Run" to execute the script.
4. The script will run and ask for a speed. Touch anywhere on the screen to open your keyboard. Type 1 if this is your first time running the script, 0 if you're a fast reader or you are in a hurry. Next, it lists 17 options and gives an input prompt. Type 8 and push Enter. (This selects the called MegaRAM 1 preset, but feel free to try others, if you're so inclined)
5. Once script finishes, type 17 and push enter to end the script. Push the phone's Menu button and select 'exit' to return to the list of scripts.
6. Pushing the phone's Back button should bring you to a file browser. Push the '..' line (second from top) until the top line reads '/'.
7. Push the phone's Menu button, push 'More' and then 'Config'. Check the box 'Browse as root'. Push the phone's Back button to return to the file browser.
8. Browse to /data and select '99SuperCharger.sh' (This script was created by the first script and makes sure the settings from the first script are re-applied on boot)
9. Select both 'Run as root' and 'Run at boot'. Push 'Save' and then 'Run'. If it says "Exit code 0" at the top of the screen, the script ran successfully. Any other Exit codes should be reported.
10. Almost all the settings are now in place... but reboot your phone to get the last ones implemented.
11. After reboot, launch Script Manager and run V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update8.sh (the first script). Select 0 at the first prompt, look for the current minfrees values... it should say "Launcher is HARD TO KILL!" and "Current minfrees = 6, 12, 40, 60, 80, 100". If the settings are correct, type 17 to exit and you are done. If not, re-read steps because you missed something.
Credit goes to Zeppelinrox, see this thread for more info on this script.
Requirements for SD Speed Increase:
1. Rooted Phone (Gingerbreak 1.20)
2. SD Speed Increase (free on Market)
Configuring SD Speed Increase:
1. Open the app and adjust the memory slider to 2048
2. Check 'Set on every reboot'
3. Push the red button
4. Reboot the phone
Advanced: 3G TurboCharge
- I'll post full step-by-step instructions soon, but for now, here are two more scripts from Zepplinrox that will boost 3G performance... (Forum Post) Run 3GTurboChargerInstaller.sh and 98KickAssKernelTweaksInstaller.sh once each (Hint: Don't forget to remove the .txt extension). The second script creates this boot script: /system/etc/init.d/98kickasskernel, so you will have use this thread to get init.d created (Side note: I haven't been able to get it to actually run the scripts that are placed in init.d... we're stuck with Script Manager for now). Run all scripts as root, obviously.
Questions, Comments & Corrections are welcome!
To Do:
Update SuperCharger to update7 (need to test it myself first)
Test and implement AutoStart script
Edit:
06/27/2011 - Removed ro.Home_app_adj tweak. It's handled by the SuperCharger script.
06/27/2011 - Updated SuperCharger script instructions to use v4 of the script.
07/14/2011 - Updated SuperCharger script instructions to use v5 of the script.
07/25/2011 - Added BusyBox requirement to the SuperCharger script.
07/25/2011 - Updated SuperCharger script instructions to use v8 of the script. Rewrote most steps for improved clarity.
08/19/2011 - Updated 3G and Kernel links.
Using it now... Cant see a major difference but I can tell some things are faster... and havent had any reason to kill any apps because the phone starts to get sluggish so IMO thats a major plus and a sign that it is working...
Oh yeah... use option 9! Megamemory device....

What does the script say those numbers mean?
The 1-3 settings are just setting the scroll speed of the text when the script runs. I personally like to set it to 1 (fastest) but it really doesn't matter. 3rd gives you a chance to read everything.
Works, like a charm, now if i wanted to get rid of it would it just be going back through the steps and undoing what i did?

No, all you have to do is uninstall script manager and reboot. Deleting the scripts is optional.

Requirements for V6_Supercharger:
1. Rooted Phone (Gingerbreak 1.20)
2. Script Manager (free on Market)
Installing/Using the script:
1. Download this ZIP and extract the script to your sdcard.
2. Load the V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update4.sh script into Script Manager and check the 'Run as Root' box (DO NOT select "Run at Boot"). Push "Run" to execute the script.
3. The script will run and display a list of 16 options and a prompt. Touch anywhere on the screen to open your keyboard. Type 9 and push Enter. (This selects the option called MegaMemory Device)
4. Once script finishes, type 16 and push enter to end the script. Push the phone's Menu button and select 'exit' to return to the list of scripts.
5. Pushing the phone's Back button should bring you to a file browser. Push the '..' line (second from top) until the top line is '/'.
6. Push the phone's Menu button, push 'More' and then 'Config'. Check the box 'Browse as root'. Push the phone's Back button to return to the file browser.
7. Browse to /data and select '99SuperCharger.sh' (This script makes sure the other script runs on boot. Otherwise you would have to do steps 2-5 everytime you boot your phone)
8. Select both 'Run as root' and 'Run at boot'. Push 'Save' and then 'Run'. You will most likely see 2 errors at the end of the 99SuperCharger script... this is expected.
9. Reboot your phone, but you might already notice a significant difference in speed and zero redraws from your launcher.
10. After reboot, launch Script Manager and run the V6_SuperCharger_for_Android.sh script, but this time don't select any options just look at your current settings and make sure they are the same as the Step values you put in. Right under the list of options, it should say: 'NOTE: Current minfrees =' If they are correct, type 16 to exit and you are done. If not re-read steps because you missed something.

What are the values that it sets? I currently am running the V6 script and unless this is a newer version my option 9 is called "Gaming settings". At any rate I did option 10 and set values at 6,12,75,125,150,175. What does this set them to?
disregard my previous post. I ran it and found they are the same settings I have been using. Thanks for the updated script though.
is their a script dev thread where updated scripts are posted
THANK YOU!
I was about 10 mins away from calling VZW and telling them to take this back and send me my original X back... I wasn't able to get ANY Ver. of Pandora to play or even Slacker half the time. The complete phone would freeze ALL the time to the point I could not do anything unless I performed a Battery Pull to hard reset.
This fixed ALL my issues. I don't even have the 1-3 second wake delay I was experiencing before. So far so GREAT!! As I type I even realize that while Pandora is playing and the phone is charging it is not getting nearly as hot as it was before? I don't care why it's working better now, but I'm glad it is!
I can't wait until we can get a decent rom with these fixes already in place! I loved Liberty on my old X. I miss it!

The end of the OP has the link.
This's pretty slick. While I haven't noticed huge gains in most areas, due to having cleaned and optimized my phone, the whole thing just seems to run with extra smoothness. Also, there's no more delay when waking the phone.

I ran this script on my phone and couldn't be happier. Stock I'd get about 115mb ram free on ATK. After root and de-bloat I topped out at 170. After this script, 220+!!!

Thanks for creating this thread and providing the most excellent script for memory mgmt. I've just installed it on my DX2 and boy, does it fly! I now see 130m+ memory free whereas before it would bounce between 50M-90M. Many thanks! I will run the remainder of this week and see if there are other impacts.
I do have one question, however, since I'm a newbie to all this: can I now remove the ATK application and disable the native Task Manager application with this script now in place? Or should I keep these as add'l failsafes?? Please advise and thanks for all the great info on this forum!

Does this increase benchmark scores at all? I know they don't mean anything but I think we can all agree, they're fun.
Also does this JUST manage memory or does it do other things as well?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
In my limited and completely amateur testing, there was no noticeable improvement in benchmarks... but I'm sure mileage will vary. You should seek out Zepplinrocks (the scripts writer) for a better answer.
I am sure this is a stupid question, but I'm a droid Newb. Is it nessicary to have the script manager app constantly running once you have already ran the script? Or is it good to go once I have exited it the last time? And after rooting, and running this script my weather widget keeps on saying i am in rockport il. And I'm not.... any suggestions?
When I click the Zip to download V6 on my phone it say "download unsuccessful"

This Post Doesn't Specify For Froyo Or Gingerbread Users. It's Up To The User, And I'm On Gingerbread And I Find All 3 Beneficial.
Now that we have the init.d hack will the kickasskernal with the IO tweaks work? Or should I just use the IO tweaks that come with navenedrob's script?
I Vote You Should Try It And See If It Works. Make A Backup First.
It boot looped...........
Do I have to sbf? Or could I just use the nandroid?
Throw The Phone Out Now. You Royally Messed Up. Geez Leave You Alone For One Minute And Look What You've Done. Nandroid Is Just Fine, No SBF Necessary.
WAAAAHHHHH no fair.... oh look it rebooted.....
So yea I am gonna try to use the IO tweaks from navenedrob's script as well as the cpu tweak from his script oh on top of the SD read ahead one. Those should work well with supercharger and kickasskernal I think. Those do not touch the cpu freq right?
I Don't Have Any Reason To Believe It Would.
Awesome, everything is working great.
My cpu is set to 1000 min and max. Sd read ahead is working but umm how do I know if the IO tweaks are working?

Anyhow... now that I have my cpu at 1000 min/max I want to separate the cpu freq tweak and have different freq scripts for battery saving.

This Was Actually A Toss Up, Because Zep Started A Thread In The General.
i tried the scripts on p3 and it actually made it use marginally more ram and it was glitchy. i dont remember what numbers i used but i got them from this forum somewhere. either way when i tried to undo it i got a reboot loop so i sbfed and went back to p3. after looking into it some more ive read some places that you dont need this if you arent running froyo. any truth to this?
I Don't Think It's Been "Proven" But Rather A Preference. I'm Using All 3 On P3's Along With Various Other Tweaks I've Taken From Others. I Have 40 Running Apps With 100Mb Of Ram And My Phone Is Still Lightning Fast. So My Conclusion Of "Truth" Is These Help Tremendously. On The Other Hand A User Like Yourself Claims It's Worse. I Hope That Helps In Understanding What You're Asking.
so what you are saying is that its personal preference and doesnt really matter that much?
This is a compilation, some of my own thoughts combined with ideas from others scattered throughout this forum... I really can't credit anyone other than who has already been credited above because it's just standard ideas.
Please feel free to add legitimate tips and tweaks to this thread so everyone can have a better TP experience! If it's noteworthy and people say it's helpful, I will add it to this OP!
1. Download the proper GAPPS and GAPPS fix to get Calendar working (thanks Stroid01, I borrowed your links from the original install thread)
2. Download the Charging and SystemUI fix from Dalingrin
3. Download Chainfire3D and install the Beta EGL drivers. Why? They fixed a lot of visual glitches that came with the stock ones.
4. Download and install the latest Adobe Flash 11.1 from the Market to enable Flash video, otherwise it won't work right out of the gate.
5. Enable USB transfer: Settings -> Storage -> Advanced (the 3 little dots in the top right corner) -> USB computer connection, then check the box next to "Media Device (MTP)"
6. It was in my best interest to change the DPI of the LCD, it'll look much better and the icons won't be so huge, my favorite has been 132 (though others have reported 145 to be good as well): Edit the build.prop in Root Explorer (mount R/W first) and change the line "ro.sf.lcd_density = 160" to "ro.sf.lcd_density = 132"
7. Install the cracked Market to fix any issues with your new DPI settings (Thanks, marios96)
8. To run Gamelot games edit your build.prop (it's located in your /system directory) to say this (I changed mine to XOOM instead of DROIDX but the idea is the same, thanks ssconceptziew):
ro.product.model=DROIDX
manufacturer=motorola
I guess this could be moved to the Development forum, I just thought this would be appropriate here since it's not actually involving developing something, just tweaks.
thanks, guess i will try the chainfire thing
How did you install chainfire. Tells me my device isnt compatible. And where do i find the drivers. Thanks in advance
Tapatalkin in from my ICS equipped Touchpad
When I try to install an app in the market, it gets stuck at the downloading stage. Is there a way to fix this? I've tried doing a fresh wipe and install of CM9 but nothing has worked! Also, I'm having problems downloading the UI fix. The countdown keeps on repeating.
Thanks. Looks much better now.
On WinXP I could not get MTP to work until I disabled debugging. Once I did that it showed up on my computer as a media device.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15568-rel-market-fix-dpi-compatibility/
Also install the cracked market from above to fix any compability issues with the new DPI.

Find an APK online. I'm not telling you to go get warez and download the pro version, I'm saying go get a free version.
And Chainfire is a driver program. That's what it's for, installing new drivers
I already got the pro version . The free version dosnt have the driver

You can also mention changing the kernel so you can get voltage control.

Yeah, there's no voltage control in SetCPU even though he states it in his change logs. It does work in System Tuner though.
Tried, and you're right. The different kernel is a bit more unstable at this point in time, however. I am using it, but it's not for those that don't mind more frequent reboots (what's funny is that this is also my primary work device.... lol).
I have a tweak.
To run Gameloft Games edit your build.prop to say this:
ro.product.model=DROIDX
manufacturer=motorola

I know there are a couple posts out there on how to fix this, but this is one of the most legitimate ways to fix the multitasking issue we have all come to know and hate on Android devices running Sense. If you don't want to install a whole new ROM, such as MEANROM, you don't have to! This is a small guide to using the V6 SuperCharger script by Zeppelinrox. I know the amount of steps seems like a lot, but it's really not that many. Most of the steps will be followed by just reading what you see on the screen and accepting the recommended option!
Zeppelinrox said:
What's it do?
It makes your phone FAST... super snappy with better multitasking!
It rearranges and fixes the OOM Groupings and Priorites and lowmemorykiller values.
So basically, it's a COMPLETE MEMORY MANAGEMENT FIX!
It's the ONLY one of it's kind
NO LAUNCHER REDRAWS, faster than ever, 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.
So fasten your seat belts and enjoy the ride!

So, everything you need to know or want to know can be found at Zep's original thread here. There is a lot of information, and because he is so technical, I think that sometimes his instructions can be hard to read for some, so I thought I would put together a VERY SIMPLE GUIDE to give you guys a hand. You can find the best instructions from him under Installing/Using.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
On to the instructions...
How To Use Supercharger
Please only proceed if you are rooted and have busybox
Download script manager from the market: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager&hl=en
Download zep's latest V6 Script (V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC11_Test_6.sh.pdf): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18703418&postcount=5021
remove the .pdf extension (should now end in .sh) and place on your phone /sdcard (you can use rom tool box or estrongs to rename the file)
At this point, I highly recommend you make a nandroid through TWRP or CWM. The script has a built-in undo feature, which works well, but I still think we all know this is best.
Open up Script manager on your phone. Make sure to check 'Browse as Root' Option
Navigate to the location wher you placed the V6 .sh script
Click the Skull/Crossbones to run as root. This should turn green. NOTE: DON'T USE THE BOOT OPTION
Hit Run
At this point, get ready for an onslaught of text. Don't be afraid and try your best to read even though much of it may not make sense!
You may be asked about your launcher. Answer the question correctly for your setup.
Any time you are asked to press Enter, go ahead and proceed. This is the last time I will tell you to hit Enter for most occasions.
Pick your scrolling speed. I recommend slow or normal the first time you do this, so you can keep up.
On the kernel panic screen, I recommend choosing the Rock(H)ard Option, so hit H and then enter
Accept the Misc and 3G tweaks by hitting Y
Feel free to keep or disable the annoying animation (the scrolling V6 at the beginning of the script)
Hit Y(es) for SuperMinFree Calculator settings. This is an automatic calculation. You can change this later when you get more confident. Many will choose the 1000HP option for our phone (based on available memory)
It will now backup your build.prop and some other system files.
ICS and newer Android services store a lot of the memory tweaks in services.jar. This script will now take you through an ICS patcher. Accept the Automatic Transmission. This will upload services.jar, and download the patched one.
It will eventually tell you that it needs to wipe your caches and restart. You will definitely want to do this. You will need to wait 4-5 minutes while it rebuilds your Dalvik Cache
Almost done! After your phone boots up and stabilizes, go back into Script Manager. Navigate to /data/99Supercharger script. Check the SU (skull/crossbones) and check the boot option.
Zepelinrox said:
- Stock ROMs - It also 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 or build.prop (18 entries added)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Reboot your phone and now your phone will run the supercharger script on startup. If you ever want to verify that your script is working, or if you want to mess with any of the extra options (including removal), run the original V6 shell script you downloaded as root, just like we did at the beginning. This will tell you if you are 100% optimized and give you a whole menu of options to play with!
I can actually open multiple apps now and go back to the first one without it having to reload. Waze is the best example. If I ever switched out and then back, it always had to reload...not anymore! Again, this all seems like a lot, but it's really pretty easy once you give it a shot!
Let me know if anything is unclear so that I can adjust this OP to help others.
Make sure to give Zep a 5 Star Rating in his OP and also give him thanks, he is the man!
Reserved just in case.
ok i need to correct you on one of your steps...DO NOT SELECT THE BOOT OPTION FOR THE SCRIPT. IT COULD CAUSE YOUR PHONE TO BOOT LOOP. only select run as root. it even tells you that on the guide that zeppelinx put in his thread.
edit: sorry for caps but i wanted to point this out before someone made this mistake

You have to run /data/99Supercharger as root and give it boot option or it won't be applied at boot. But you are right, if you are worried, you could just run it as root the first few times. I personally always set this one to boot as well. If you had to, you could always adb in recovery, and remove /data/Supercharger if you are having problems.
*EDIT
This is mostly a concern for ROMS/Kernels that utilize /etc/init.d but I will add this caveat to the OP

if the rom uses init.d then the script will install a service to the init folder and it will auto load when then phone is restarted, no need to try and force it to run. also if it is a stock rom (with the script manager program) you can set the 99supercharger to run after boot as a task.

What you are saying is exactly the point I made in the OP. Is this unclear? You should only ever run 99Supercharger on boot, not the original V6Supercharge Script. And yes, this is geared mostly towards stock users, who do not have init.d support and therefore need SManager to run the boot script for them.

i understand what you are saying but the boot symbol next to the run ass root symbol in the script should not be checked. if you need it to run at boot the script manager program can do that for you, by setting up a scheduler when you reboot. after boot it will run the script but not during
p.s. let me re-read what you put so i am just not looking stupid lol. i think i need a nap
edit: yea if you need it to run at boot do it through the script manager program and set it up to schedule it to load the script after your phone is already booted to avoid any potential boot loops (but dont check the boot logo at the top left hang corner of the actual script itself

Can you post the steps to describe how you personally do boot scripts with SManager?
After Android starts up, it will send a boot intent to all apps registered to receive such an intent. This is where SManager is allowed to execute any scripts you have marked with the boot option. This happens much later than a traditional /etc/init.d start script, but is no less effective. Please let me know how you mark scripts as bootable and I can add that recommendation as well. Thanks.

1. open script manager
2. click menu
3. click more
4. click advanced options
5. click scheduler
6. click add new task
7. click select file
8. navigate to 99supercarger file the script created and click on it
9.you can from there click on boot (inside the file you just clicked on)
10. click save
it will boot the script after the phone is done booting, to prevent the possibility of boot looping. you can also create an event to do an engine flush however often you want (i do one at midnight everyday)
This gets executed at the same time during system boot as the method I mentioned. Both are valid. Thanks for the feedback!

i thought you were saying click the boot thing during install ....i am sorry haha i got really tired all of a sudden and stuff wass getting jumbled together...
v6 works awesome though i have been using it for about 1 year now on this phone and my old evo
Also, for anyone that gives this a shot, please post back with your results!
Not to be "that guy" buuuut the effects of v6 at least from my experience with this phone (again fresh frombcustoms preorder release) the day i got it i was rooted and installed v6 because ive used it on all my prior evos since i found it probably right around when zep released lol...anyways on this phone its a strictly placebo effect and actually created more lag and launcher reloads...i was running the 1000hp option and tried the i believe 750hp whatever the one down from 1000 is anyways both of them gave me same results and once i removed the script all was good in the hood as they say lol...but if its working for yall then maybe zep fixed some ish for this problem and i didnt know about it...well this epic runon sentence is finished sorry for the length and useless points
Sent from the depths of hell
yea i also used it on my og evo and i just put it on last night again on this one, tried the 750 option and 1000 option. today at school my memory got so low it locked my phone, that never happened with mean rom and the tweaks he puts in. undoing the supercharge now.

It's definitely helps with multitasking. I can keep apps open in the background much easier. Problem is that it chokes out the available ram for running apps, so it can make it feel sluggish. I think it's overtweaking the mem settings.
