Why won't V6 lowmemory settings stick with CM7DX2? - Motorola Droid X2

I'm wanting to see what the V6 Scripts will do for CM7 but I cannot for the life of me get them to stick upon reboot.
I have them setup via Script Manger to run as root. I've gone in, did option 6 (0,4,10,12,14,15) and option 20.
Upon reboot, the settings in /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj are set back to the default CM7 settings
I've tried setting the properties in both local.prop and build.prop, but nothing seems to stick.
I've tried integrating the settings of the init.rc into the ROM and not doing that.
None of these options seems to make the low memory killer settings I set in V6 stick and it ALWAYS reverts back to the stock CM7 settings.
I know I can just rerun the script after it's done booting, but I never had to do this with other ROMs as it would integrate fine in /etc/init.d and run.
I see in the /etc/init.d a S99SuperCharger script with the correct permissions set. I can run it via sh and it sets the properties correctly.
It just seems that CM7 is overwriting the low memory settings somewhere and I don't know where. I don't see it occurring in any of the supplied scripts from CM7 in the /etc/init.d and I don't see it in the build.prop file.
Any ideas? I know I could just tell Script Manager to run the script on boot, but that's usually not recommended except as a last resort.
I guess the real reason I would like to get this working the way it normally does (via the init.d scripts) is just to understand what CM7 is really doing.
Thanks!

Perhaps CM7 has some sort of memory management of it's own that sets things back to the defaults on boot????????
I know, not much of an answer but it's the best I can come up with.

That's what I figured is happening. I just have to determine where it's happening at.
I see that the V6 scripts are running, but something is setting it AFTER the init.d process is done.
I also checked the /data/SuperChargerRan log file and this is what I saw:
02-16-2012 09:20:53: Applied Settings from /system/etc/init.d/S99SuperCharger!
02-16-2012 09:20:54: DIDN'T Apply Settings from /data/99SuperCharger.sh!
Not sure why the second one isn't working.
Looking at the /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj file, it's back to the original settings that CM7 has: 0,1,2,4,7,15

Hehehehe... Me thinks you should search the forums a little bit. When I was testing cm7 for DZK, I tried EVERYTHING I used on previous ROMs, to include V6_SuperCharger. V6_SuperCharger DOES NOT WORK with CM7! The BIGGEST reason is the mapping for the memory slots are different with CM7, so fudging with them tends to cause massive issues and slowdowns. The reason it does not stick is most likely (speculation here) due to CM7 settings things back to it's optimized default settings.
Keep in mind that CM7 is an "optimized" AOSP based ROM... That means NO BLOATWARE! I am running with roughly 315 apps, most of which I use on a WEEKLY basis. Some, only monthly.
There are a few issues that I have noticed, root/su issues, sometimes system crashes on boot, sometime bluetooth crashes on boot, sometimes the dialer crashes... But with non-root apps, this thing SCREAMS!
Also, CM7 incorporates it's own memory management system that works better than the Moto Blur based ROMs. Just my two cents.
Ciao!

Moonshadow, thanks for the explanation. I did do a search and for some reason, your post didn't come up. Now that I search, I find it. I'll attribute it to an ID-10T or PEBKAC error.

Are you REALLY sure about that??? It could be that Google just hiccuped during that nanosecond that your search on XDA was running... And didn't affect anyone elses searches...
You can be like Apple and blame/sue everyone else... (Just joking!)

Besides cm 7 does not need any script runs good as it is.

I do use this script, and I can say that it is a success!
1.0.2 Using the MiniCM6 Nobodyatall!
One of the best roms in Big X10 xda land "Wolfbreaks" uses this.
I hope the roms here start using it... It rapes!
I must say.. this is works very well on my mini with MiniCM 2.0.5 GingerBread
Before: Active launcher and Zeam launcher is redraw everytime I finish to play NFS Shift or even after I open Application manager
After: No redraw (Active Launcher and Zeam) when finished playing Angry Birds, NFS Shift and other RAM eater games
Great ..
So I tried this script, and now my launcher is hard to kill / supercharged
but then after reboot it still says my launcher is hard to kill, but also that my prior minfrees don't match my current minfrees.
it then shows my curent minfrees as the default minfrees and the prior as what i selected. is that supposed to happen?
I mean exactly as the screenshot moedjs posted
like isn't it supposed to set current minfrees to what i selected, and not to default?

It works badass!
I did not understand the installation
ops , I did find a help, sorry
hey guys, does this works in SE android firmware 2.1?
Another question, in a tutorial it says :
P.S. When Installing Programs, MAKE SURE Script Manager are installed on PHONE and NOT in the MicroSD Card!
I have app2sd installed already , how can I do this? thanks
can someone who tried this give his values and his results?
sounds like a great tool
thnx in advance
I have the same problem as Carpe-Dimi above regarding new minfrees not sticking after reboot, although the Launcher is "Hard to kill".
I used option 6 in the script set up.
I followed help file advice to have Script Manager run /system/etc/init.d/99SuperCharger "at boot" and "as root" but problem persists.
Otherwise seems to work fine at keeping launcher in memory. I don't see any boost in Quadrant Score... or any other noticeable improvements to be honest.
MiniCM 7 is pretty good as it is
Any advice on settings or getting minfrees to stick?
Anyone know if it works on mini pro?
That number 1-17 is best for my phone?

there are config files in the ramdisk.tar (can't remember name atm, but they are init.rc files) that have lines regarding the setting of ram optimizations.
however. these are definatley meant to do the same as the script, but the values in them don't correspond to the ones the script readsout, so I'm thinking another script runs on top of that which overrides those values again.
that's just a theory tho, since I can't edit the ramdisk file as I dunno how to set the permissions back when unpacking and repacking ramdisk.tar but I'll get back when I find out.
as for the launcher being bulletproof, that definately makes the home button respond a lot faster ^^

Somewhere in the original post it says that in some Custom Roms the minfrees won't stay after reboot so you HAVE TO select 'run at boot' for it to stay.
edit: From original post:
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?
........ You can check /res/user.log to see if it ran...
........ If this happens to you, use Script Manager to load /system/etc/init.d/99SuperCharger "on boot" and "run as root"
And I also have a question(just like the one 2 above)
What is the best one to choose (1-17)?
ThankYou
I tried:
'........ If this happens to you, use Script Manager to load /system/etc/init.d/99SuperCharger "on boot" and "run as root"'
and still could not get values to stick
Has anyone else tried this and had more luck?
how do you install this.. i could not understand

u r correct...the memory free settings are modified by some file not located in ram disk...i have examined the init.rc files and ramdisk settings are quiet different form the one that is set in the roms during runtime
now only if v knew what that file was!!!
The values ​​are not equal with me, but I noticed a big improvement!
I am using the following values ​​in the original 6,8,16,20,22,60 MiniCM6 Froyo!
It must have some kind of file it impossible values ​​are equal, but it works it works!
I have done for mine and is awesome...

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?

V6 Supercharger and Dell Streak

how many people here use the V6 Supercharger Script with their Streak?
I'm having trouble with it and was hoping other more adept streakers know what the hell is going on with mine...
so I've run probably every script since the first one, but, it turns out the instructions I got weren't as complete as they could have been, and inadvertantly, I ran the scripts as the .txt and .pdf file formats that they came in.
I also saw a tutroial that involved changing a file name using root explorer, which I also never did.
i also did this for the 3G and kernelizer tweaks aswell
so now I have the latest script version and I notice that it's not working, I have no idea how long ago it stopped...
what I would like to know is:
A: how to totally clean all of it from my system, in order to start a totally fresh install.
B: how to properly install all three of the the scripts on the streak.
anybody nice enough to help me?
I use it...since version 8.
I use the latest version, along with the 3g & kick ass kernal tweak.
I use option 6, multitasking, 512 leaded.
Drop in here>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276 I'll bet someone can help you.
I've tried following all the instructions, even some from other tutorials, I've un supercharged and started from scratch.
how did you make yours stick?

It has been made very clear by some of the senior developers here that V6 does not work on the Streaks because of some type of conflict with how the memory is allocated or configured or something, that's one of the reasons that it isn't implemented into the ROMs... so it's just snake oil, a placebo for a Streak owner. I'm not saying it doesn't work on other devices, but it DOES NOT work on the Streak
Is there a post by a dev anywhere that explains it?
Will AutoKiller Memory Optimizer work? It must this device that it doesn't work on... the minfree file disappears or something

[Q] Speed/Performance Scripts Overview

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...

Fix Multitasking and Reduce Lag

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.

- 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

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.
