I am sure that there are plenty of people that would agree with me that one script that can install all three at the same time would be fantastic. I have managed to get all three working on their own (once), but I have also had to reflash sooooo many times after something goes wrong and I always get something that doesn't install the first time (or breaks all the other things that have been installed already).
PLEASE can one of the guru's of XDA write one script that can enable all three (AND standardize on one version of Busybox so that we don't have to keep changing it - preferably the most recent one). I will happily pay for this functionality.
Anyone in favour say "AYE"

since the developer of each tool is different, it hard to compile it at once..
just wait until the developer compile it..

These are mostly just files that are copied across and replaced or added. I may be wrong but Busybox is just used to execute the commands, so putting together a script that can make all the changes at once shouldn't be impossible. Well, I hope not....
Devs, any reason why this can't work?

Why don't you just keep one backup for your main ROM that has everything in it for daily use.

That would be fine IF: I could get all three working again (I am working on it), and, what about testing out new ROMs that don't have these pre-installed? I need to go through the pain each time I test a new ROM.....

yeah..
it simple of copying file..
but xrecovery need an older busybox[it depend on busybox version v1.5/6] while other tools need latest busybox[v1.7]..
so, copying file will become mess with the existence of 2 busybox version..

All that needs to happen is that the final Busybox that gets copied across/used needs to be the right one for xrec.
If the other bits get tweaked to use this older version then we can standardize on that one (or xrec needs to be tweaked to use the latest busybox - which makes more sense). The key seems to be to make sure that xrec is left with the correct version at the end.

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?
Sorry for the incredibly newbish question. (Feel free to refer me to other places this may have been answered.)
There seem to be a lot of "Speedy"/Performance scripts listed in the Sticky on the X2 Dev forum, and I was just wondering if someone would be kind enough to provide a line or two to describe each.
It seems to me like there is a lot of overlap between some of these scripts, especially when considering the tweaks added by various ROMs. So I am most interested in finding out basically which are compatible, and which are most likely to conflict with the available custom ROMs.
Here are a couple, but feel free to add more.
Speedy V6
Init.d Re-hack (required for some scripts)
Init.d Hack v0.6 (required for some scripts)
Speedy Gonzales v1.0 (thread closed)
Power Boost v2.0
-=V6 SuperCharger=-
SetCPU (an app that may/may not work in conjunction with some of the above scripts)
Again, sorry for my nativity here. I know this information can be found in the individual threads, but I'm sure a basic overview would be a really big help for those of us who are just now trying to get into the installation of some good speed scripts. It's also really unclear to a beginner which scripts/apps/ROMs will conflict with each other or which combinations might actually reduce effectiveness & stability.
Thanks!
ya i agree...too many of these overlap with each other.....which work with what kernal???....which works the best....benefits of each??....etc....
init.d hack is a way to allow you to store scripts in a directory called /etc/init.d that will fire up when the phone reboots. Without it, you could create the directory but your phone won't run the scripts.
It's best to flash the init.d hack first which "hijacks" the boot process and will execute any scripts located in the /etc/init.d directory.
Once that is flashed, I find the V6 Supercharger Scripts to be the best for making the phone speedy. I use options 9 and 12. 9 sets the optimal memory settings that seem to prevent music from skipping. Option 12 makes the launcher not get killed in memory which can cause skipping and hi cupping in the X2 as it unloads and reloads from what I understand.
I really haven't used anything else except the V6 Supercharger Scripts. They seem to be the most popular, but what it all boils down to is, experiment with each one and see which gives you the best performance you are seeking.
I also know many ROMS, such as Eclipse, have incorporated the init.d hack and have their own versions of many of these performance scripts in them, so mileage will vary.
Also, the kernel doesn't mean anything. It works with all kernels. But, many of them require Busybox installed since they use various UNIX commands that are not available in the stock image.
question: can't you just save the 99 v6 script as run as root, run at boot after you create the init.d directory instead of having to run the init.d hack? i've never run the init.d hack but have used the run as root run at boot save and it always loads fine on boots.
I really hope I posted this in the right place...
I loaded Eclipse v1.3 yesterday on 2.3.4 and I love it! It works really well. I had the issue about the gps but it went away after 2 battery pulls. I don't have any problems with iheartradio skipping or any other music for that matter. I have even noticed my X2 runs way faster. But, my internet is slower. No matter downloading or browsing, I can tell it is slower than before. Since Eclipse has the init.d already inside, can I download the Speedy V6 zip and flash it when I go into recovery mode? From what I have read in the forum, that should increase the overall speed of the phone. Or, being a noob, am I going about that the wrong way?

I'd also like to note: On my CPU tuner app, it always says the Active CPU's are 1/2 and does not pass the test under the "check capabilities" portion of the app. I also had the same result before rooting and loading Eclipse. Will the new script cure that?

The main reason for the init.d hack is so u don't NEED script manager to run init.d scripts at boot. One less thing for ur phone to have to start up. One less application running on startup.
What I used to do(when not running a rom w/init.d support...eclipse HAS init.d hack built in along w/liberty (others too I believe)
Is I would flash the hack. Delete all init.d scripts and just run supercharger scripts from there.
that way there was no need to run the supercharger scripts at boot etc...
I am not sure if someone else has posted this already. But I couldn't find one, so here you go. (Please let me know if I'm mistaken)
I made two small edits to the boot.img of the stock (leaked) ICS rom in order to satisfy my needs:
1. ability to run init.d scripts,
2. start adb in root.
They are very simple and anyone with a little knowledge can do it himself, but it still is convenient to have someone else do it, isn't it? I, for one, searched the forum in vein.
Here's a short explanation of what it is, and how to utilize the features.
1. init.d :
You can place your own shell scripts in /etc/init.d (you have to create the directory yourself, of course) and run them at boot time. If you prefer the CM style userinit.d, you could create a script like:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# call userinit.sh and/or userinit.d/* scripts if present in /data/local
if [ -e /data/local/userinit.sh ];
then
log -p i -t
userinit "Executing /data/local/userinit.sh";
logwrapper
/system/bin/sh /data/local/userinit.sh;
setprop
fi;
if [ -d /data/local/userinit.d ];
then
logwrapper busybox
run-parts /data/local/userinit.d;
fi;
and place it in init.d (credit: CM team). After that, you can place additional scripts without remounting system partition. Just don't forget to chmod appropriately.
A word of caution: Don't go wild and install all those tweaks found in other forums without checking to see their contents. I found that most of them to be either irrelevant or even harmful to the Amaze. Remeber, we've got one of the best phones on the market and wouldn't want to ruin it by running tweaks designed for our 'lessor' siblings!
2. adb root :
I was getting tired of the inability to adb push files to user restricted directories. Also, I use Droid Explorer a lot, but was tired of its inability to obtain root even though my phone is rooted. So I basically changed the default.prop and everything is fine now.
Added benefit is that 'adb remount' works now.
Well, that's it. Too simple, but until someone comes up with a nice kernel with these mods built in, we got to live with what's available.
DISCLAIMER : Should I even include a disclaimer? Why not? This is just a stock boot.img with minor modifications to its ramdisk portion, and it shouldn't harm your phone. If it doesn't work, simply reflash the stock boot.img found in the stock/leaked ICS roms. However, I don't want anyone to brick his phone, so don't flash this unless you know what you are doing. Also, I've seen some people bricking their phones merely by trying to flash innocent files like this one. Hard to believe, but anything can happen, so I will not be responsible if you brick your phone.
INSTRUCTIONS :
0. be sure you got the ICS build 4.0.3 with the stock kernel. rooted and have installed busybox (for init.d support only).
1. download the attached boot.img.
2. place the file where adb/fastboot can find it.
3. flash it using 'fastboot flash boot boot_new.img.
4. reboot.
5. try 'adb shell' and see if you get # prompt.
6. add some scripts in /etc/init.d and reboot and see if it runs.
It runs on my Amaze running the newer leaked ICS rom (unlocked bootloader, rooted, and busybox from the market). If you have any other settings, it probably won't do any good.
That's it, guys. Hope you have some fun with it (like I did).
Just flashed your modified boot.img so far everything works as described. Going to attempt my backlight script now. Just reflashed the stock RUU as certain Roms were giving me WiFi issues. Thanks
Is this why adb remount never worked?? I asked a few people and they acted like I was crazy.. I KNEW there had to be a reason it wasn't working.. I guess my only question is why was it no one thought to do this since the ICS release except you? LOL.
Edit: And I am out of thanks, this is my mental note to come back and hit thanks when I get some to give again!
Edit2: As advertised it works flawlessly, as advertised. It will be awesome to be able to push files to my phone and all the other things I couldn't do before! A simple tweak, as you said, still appreciated!
seems like were getting some more people around here that actually contribute to the amaze forums. thanks guys...carry on
Thank you very much
Now to find some scripts to run, lol.
Thank you all for the kind words! As I said in the OP, I was curious at first about the usefulness of my post. I truly believe that, if HTC had given us more power to mod this phone, this forum would have been 10 time more active with all sorts of useful stuff. Come on HTC, you give us the best phone (even better than the One series!), and why do you want to cripple us?

As I didn't test the boot.img with any roms around, I don't know what went wrong with your wifi. That's why I only promised it would work with the NEWER stock ICS rom. Is it possible that you flashed the boot.img to a custom rom that is based on the OLDER leak?
Additionally, if the rom dev has made his/her own mods to the boot.img, it would not be compatible with the stock boot.img like mine. I didn't add, remove or move any files.

Hehe, yeah it is because of some security settings that phone manufacturers chose to enable in order to minimize customer support costs, I guess. Instead, they should give us all the power (and funding, too) so that we can support each other at XDA!

I've used more than two dozen smart phones in the past, including ancient pda's and even iPhones (ouch!), and I think the Amaze has the best (mix of) hardware. I, too, wish there were more devs here, and wonder why some great devs around didn't see the potential in it. Well, HTC isn't doing something right...

Hard to find anything useful for the (already mighty) Amaze, isn't it?
Things I would add for myself are like:
- house keeping: delete cache, move/copy important files from internal to external sdcard, etc.
- renice phone and input method a bit. How about acore? Probably not...
- zipalign, maybe, if you're fanatic about it.
- save logs and erase oldest ones. Gosh, what am I saying? We've got so much storage space. Oh, well. If we save the logs in external sdcard, we can view them even when the phone doesn't turn on...
Hehe, I think I should search.
I never flashed your boot.img on custom roms only on the stock. I have better WiFi with stock.

LOLOLOL! That guy is something! I mean the guy who created the v6 script. Yes, I think his concept is right on. I may borrow some of his tweaks like app grouping and oom/minfree. I've done similar adjustments when I was still using my G1/Dream, but with Amaze with de-bloated ICS, I am already getting (almost, if not) everything he is promising we can achieve with his script.
The only lag I have is when some background services are busy. But I don't really want to make them low priority (yet).
What do you think you like to achieve using v6? I may be able to help because I myself want to experiment some.

Hey, if you want to try out something cool, check this out.. http://android.mimic.ca/ it patches the services.jar file to change the OOM priority, evidently in a way more effective than the supercharger script can do it. I was going to try to include it in the latest update for my rom till I decided I wanted to work on other things.. the guy who made supercharger script helped design the patch for the file though Just thought you may be interested.

erm... it CAN'T be more effective than supercharging... because it IS SuperCharging
Well, 50% of it. The other 50% comes from the script when on ICS.
Why do you think that website is integrated into the latest V6 Scripts?
That needs to be done in addition to the V6 script when using ICS roms to get 100%.
Of course, non ICS roms get 100% supercharged with the script itself since there's no need to patch services.jar

Edit: And thanks for the explanation, that makes more sense than whatever post that lead me to your patch.
what is a modified boot image?
what is the different between the modifed boot image and the android we can download from the developer google site/?
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)

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.
Sorry everyone.

no thanks man for helping out, i just think this phone doesnt do well with it, and that may be because of how HTC changed the multitasking settings themselves. it may conflict with v6
Theres something up with it because its def just this phone because nothing solves it at all

Im thinking its sonething stupid like a character in the code is supposed to be one way and its mirrored the other way lol

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.
