I was looking through the Arc development section and came across these threads by iridaki, now the first thread is instructions on how to create and enable init.d scripts, to enable you to run stuff like Supercharger v6
Now firstly I am running the following
ST18i
4.0.2.A.0.42
Rooted and Unlocked B/L
Samsung Galaxy theme
Firstly what I did was follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405590
Once you have followed the guide and flashed the file you will find there won't be the file test file in data/local/tmp now I will try to find out why BUT I continued the process and ran this script
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
after running this script it created a file in the init.d folder called 99supercharger
Now once this had been done I followed this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275233
to test if the script was working, and it works!!!
Please thank all the original threads detailed above
After doing this my quadrant increased slightly but the overall smoothness of the phone had improved.
For information when I ran the supercharger script I selected aggressive 1 settings from the selection
I will try to help as much as I can in regards to how to get this running on the Ray, but for questions relating to the script please ask on their thread
For anyone having problems remember to set permissions correctly see post 5 by hansip87
Don't forget to change permission of install-recovery.sh to rwxr-xr-x that is the issue that makes the 99Test

Hi bro, i already do your step by step there, the SuperCharger does works AFAICT but i still don't know whether the init.d works or not by the start of the phone. So with the 99test does not work, how can we be convinced that content of init.d folder will be run? any new info you can share? Thx.

Get script manager and.run the supercharger script created in init.d let me know what happens on the display
sent from my gorgeus Xperia Ray
Yup with script manager, I run the supercharger with root access, and it worked to display kernel.panic etc. No warning. And as far as I understand the script, it will put a value to parameter file in sys folder from data folder as selected in supercharger setup. But when I restart, the parameter file is reverted back, meaning that the init.d does not work, but supercharger does, only must be called manually from script manager.
Hope you understand. Might be related to why ray and arc s get ics the same time, but arc doesn't, because of different boot system.

No no that's not what i meant.. Let me explain this a bit:
1. the link from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
is to setup a supercharger on the phone right?
2. the link from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275233
only to test if the 99supercharger generated by supercharger script working or not, right?
3. But the first mod you get from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405590 you said that the 99test did not generate the log file after you flashed it from cwm, right?
That means the current condition on your phone & mine is:
1. The init.d automatic startup exec is not working
2. Supercharger has been setup to the phone, It is running by itself, i can see that; but is not loaded with user spesific value from Supercharger setup, due to point 1 above.
Note:
Have you still got 99test inside /system/etc/init.d? please run it with Script Manager with Superuser privilege and the log file will be generated by Script Manager. But now delete the log file and restart. Will it generated by iridaki startup mod? With mine, it's not.
So.. With the current condition, there is a workaround actually. Use Script Manager to run 99Supercharger at boot with SuperUser privilege. Now we're talking..
---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------
to OP, i think i have found the problem why there's no /data/local/temp/log_test.txt. Because we forgot to change permission of install-recovery.sh to rwxr-xr-x. Now the script runs automatically on my phone. Please acknowledge and clarifiy the issue on the first post please.

1. Go here and download 0vermind's init.d re-hack
2. Flash the init.d re-hack in BSR (Bootstrap Recovery)
3. Flash Speedy v2 (Road Runner)
4. Reboot twice
To make sure the scripts are working go to /data and check for "ZipAlign log" if you see it, the scripts are working.
Don't be sorry. This section is for general which includes Q&A
Does anyone know if these scripts will work with the atrix ports?
I am a noob and didn't want to start a new thread that would clutter up so this seemed like the best place to ask.
They should work on atrix port but in theory you don't need to flash the init.d hack its already built into atrix port.

Yes the scripts are working GREAT with the Atrix port
I install this morning and my phone is working outstanding
7 hours and my phone is still at 80%
the min CPU freq is set @ 250 up from 216
another question...so now that naven updated his scripts do i even need this? Or would it be smart to install this over navens latest release?

It depends which scripts u prefer. They are different in some ways...and u may need to delete parts of conflicting scripts or entire script itself. I saw some people had problems when trying to do that. Just make ur nandroid before trying to be safe.
U could just push the scripts into init.d folder u want to use and fix permission/owners.
So the scripts from these two guys are named differently, does navens have the script that helps battery or can I just add that specific one from overmind into navens zip file?
If so what is the name of the script?
Sorry again I am a noob and am just trying to figure this stuff out
I wanted to say thanks for your interesting work on RoadRunner. I've flashed it, along with the hack, and it wasen't loading as I wasen't seeing Zipalign. log. but realized maybe I should reload busyox, hch I did. Then upon reflashing roadrunner, the zipalign.log appeared. Al started speeding up after this as well as increasing battery life. So thanks again
Steve
while searching the android forum i came upon this script..... SMURFED OUT
pros: highly customisable script,, optimization as per user requirement ...
battery tweaks, memory tweaks, speed tweaks, governor tweaks, 3g and wifi tweaks, SD card tweaks, and a bunch of random tweaks. Some collected from a bunch of different phones tweaks and others created by developer.
----The script will search out every line in your build.prop and remove any line that is there that I am adding and remove it first to reduce duplicate codes. It will remove a whole list of other init.d files that conflict with it. Will also create a few other files and folders to add functionality and speed optimization to your phone.
What if you do not like the tweaks that I added.....well the script creates back-ups for you and you can choose the option to Un-Smurf and it will set you back to before you installed.---
READ MORE HERE THE ORIGINAL THREAD --
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517724
thanks the developer if u find it useful for use......
IMPORTANT--- please dont fill up the thread with-- is this better than that script or anything else,, use this if it suits your need .... else u always have a variety to choose from....
this one script is for DEODEXED ROMS only...... closes most of the system app thus freeing up memory increasing battery life and removes lagginess
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1665331
ummm, just a doubt, are scripts optimised for odexed or deodexed ROMs?
If yes, would the smurf script work for an odexed ROM?
didnt find anything related on that thread
[P.S. - I hope this isnt a very obvious fact that i missed

generally all scripts work for both odexed and deodexed.....
but the smurfed out is for any rom...odexed or deodexed...
the second script is for deodexed only ...as the script is to handle the system apps control..u can enable or disable further system apps by editing the script using root explorer like file manager
It seems to be a very good script.Hope the developer continue to update it. I have installed the script on TranX rom but need to make a clean install to see the results. Will post later.
Edit: Having problems with wifi and 3g. They don´t turn on.Wifi goes on and off.

Ok, so you have somehow upgraded your phone to Sony’s Ice Cream Sandwich, and now you are shocked at the lag of your phone. Listed below are steps you should do to improve your ICS experience, and hopefully feel less jealous of your friend’s (insert name of high-end android model).
Note: This guide is written specifically for Xperia Neo V, but should work on Xperia Neo, Arc/S etc. provided you install the correct kernels for your device.
1. Root your phone and install Clockwork Mod Recovery.
There are two ways to do this, locked and unlocked bootloader.
Locked bootloader:
Please refer to these threads for more info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509
I might not be able to help as my bootloader is unlocked, but I will try.
Unlocked bootloader
For unlocked bootloader, you should flash a custom kernel for more benefits.
Install fastboot and all the other drivers if you have not already
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24457419&postcount=1
Place the following file on your SD card.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1090931&d=1338234349
Find a kernel with clockwork mod recovery preinstalled. Here are some recommendations.
Suave kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708532
XNeo kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704268
Night elf kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566871
To flash the kernel, rename the .img file to boot.img and place it into the fastboot folder. Plug your phone in to the USB while holding the menu button. The LED should turn blue. Open cmd.exe, type “cd” followed by dragging your fastboot folder in the cmd. After that, type “fastboot flash boot boot.img” Restart the phone and continuously press the volume down button
2. Remove bloatware.
Auto remove with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26538965 Thank ThilinaC for this!
Manual removal: Install Titanium Backup from the Play Store. Start by removing the useless stuff (Wisepilot etc.) After that, if you are feeling a bit adventurous, you can check out this thread for removing more stuff
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19772266&postcount=1
3. Overclock your CPU. (only for unlocked bootloaders)
This is pretty self-explanatory. Just install a cpu tuner app such as No frills, setcpu, SetXperia. It is generally safe to overclock to around 1.4Ghz.
4. Build.prop tweaks
This is where the stuff gets interesting. Use an app such as root explorer and navigate to /system and edit the build.prop. Add the following lines to the bottom of the file.
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
persist.adb.notify=0
debug.sf.hw=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
Full list available HERE Thank the OP.:good:
After editing, restart your phone and your phone will speed up eventually.
5. Remove CPU rendering
Navigate to system/lib/egl and edit egl.cfg file. Remove the first line. After that delete libGLES_android.so Restart and wait.
6. Install the v6 supercharger (thanks Pandemic for the PM)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704268
7. Get a copy of the Xperia Sola home, along with other Sola apps. They are way faster than the crappy stuff in the 2011 devices. Available HERE.
8. Install the newest JB Adreno drivers HERE
9. (OPTIONAL) Install the Xperia S Walkman, its faster than the V version lol. (credits go to ThilinaC)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26739806&postcount=1
Games work perfectly fine on my phone. Some random lags on temple run but not FIFA 12.
Why stock rom? Because the rom is actually quite well optimised and doesn't suffer from mulitouch problems. And the Xperia S Walkman is great:victory:
Suggestions are welcome so that we can all improve this thread.:highfive:
Reserved for future use
I didn't miss anything for tweaking my phone,
except this part

The persist code is for removing the usb debugging notification when you plug in a usb. Window max events per sec is for improving scrolling speed and the others are for hardware acceleration/gpu.

Thanks for the Xperia S home tip. But I am slightly confused over Enable GPU rendering. Doesn't remove cpu rendering do the same job, or do you mean the force gpu option in developer options.
just asking out of curiosity,doesn't debug.sf.hw=1 enable rendering ui with gpu ? so whats the point editing egl.cfg file ?
or am I wrong?
anyway nice thread
remove bloatware automatically

PMed and no reply, guess it's not possible
Nice from you that you wrote all this, but all this is pretty much standard procedure for any fw, not just ICS.
And why point 6 is on the list, Xperia S walkman? That's kinda down to each person opinion, right?
Also:
Misc. If you upgraded from gingerbread using the official way, make a backup with CWM and make a complete restore. Of course, you have to apply these tweaks again but your device will be faster.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you make CWM right after that update and restore it, you won't gain anything(like speed), (possible)stuff from GB will still be in that backup.
If you update, and old stuff is left over from GB, then do repair(with PCC/SEUS), and then you can make CWM backup of clean ICS, but no need to restore it.
And you won't need to reapply tweaks if you do them before CWM backup, after restore, they will also be restored

Hi all.
I was bored this morning, so I took it upon myself to manually modify the services.jar required to make the launcher Die-Hard, HTK, or Bulletproof.
This is used in the V6 Supercharger script found HERE
Each of these includes the correctly modified values for their respective types of launchers. The V6 Supercharger will automatically patch your services.jar for Die-Hard launcher, but personally I prefer HTK or Bulletproof.
Honestly this may not help anyone, but in the case that it does I made this thread.
To install, copy the V6 Supercharger you can get from THIS THREAD (attached at the bottom, read the thread though) to the root of the sdcard. Copy the services.jar you desire to the root of the sdcard as well. Under ICS Service Centre in V6 Supercharger, use manual install. It will copy and set proper permissions.
These files have been taken from CM9 Alpha 5 by dragonzkiller, but may work on other (previous or future) builds.
It is recommended to backup your services.jar in the case that something goes wrong. I believe this is done automatically in V6 Supercharger script.
Press thanks of leave a comment if I helped.
Thanks man they helped me out
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Many Thanks
It definitely made the whole process simpler. Thanks!
What are the differences between these launchers?
MOD EDIT: removed attachement since zeppelinrox does not allow any redistribtuion.
I make report.
Bad dummy.
?!
Repackaging of my work is not permitted.
Period.
And it turns out, it's an older V6 script in the zip
From my OP
Modification and redistribution of the attached installation script is not permitted at all.
This means that you cannot feel free to zip up the attached installation script with other tweaks and this means that it is not be edited and shared.

So if you're gonna SuperCharge, do it right - not with an old, unsupported version that didn't come from me.
Can this run on FDE+4?
Sorry all I don't understand about this..why do we use it???
