This Post is ONLY for ICS AND JELLY BEAN!
Earlier Android ROMS need ONLY The V6 SuperCharger Script !​.
Note: The webapp is NOT working on some newer roms! The strings to be edited are slightly different and the webapp needs updating!
===================================================================
IMPORTANT UPDATES!
===================================================================
August 25, 2012
Many thanks to pepcisko! He made a windows exe version of my Jelly Scream script which does EVERYTHING!
Get the Jelly Scream Patcher for Windows!
===================================================================
August 15, 2012
Instead of manually editing (Step 5 in the Tutorial below) or using the not yet updated webapp... you can use my new Jelly Scream Smali Patcher script!
Includes ALL the new edits below PLUS TONS MORE!
Just run it like my other scripts and be sure to have both ProcessList.smali AND ActivityManagerService.smali in the same folder as the script!
===================================================================
July 10, 2012
I found more edits to make the launcher even stronger!
I wasn't able to find a way to prevent other apps from getting ADJ 1 - UNTIL NOW!
When other apps have ADJ 1, along with the launcher, this makes the launcher weaker than it would be on non-ICS/JB ROMS!
Google Account Manager or Location Service, for example, would never have ADJ 1 on GingerBread.
On non-ICS/JB ROMS, the launcher and ONLY the launcher, could have ADJ 1.
===================================================================
And now.... the same can be said for Ice Cream & Jelly Bean!!
​ ===================================================================
Obviously, the webapp has not been updated as of yet so stay tuned for that.
For now, the new edits can only be done manually, old school.
I marked the new edits in the tutorial with a -=NEW=- notification!
===================================================================
ICS/Jelly Bean Installation Steps - Easy as 1, 2, 3!
1. Run the NEWEST V6 SuperCharger script as always.
Note: You may get Segmentation Fault errors running the V6 SuperCharger script on ICS due to a flakey su (superuser) binary.
To resolve the issue, you can:
A) Go HERE for a fixed su binary. No more fugly segfaults! - Thanks to wraithdu
OR...
B) Go HERE and get the SuperCharger Starter Kit!
2. Patch and install services.jar by whichever method you like best. Your options are:
A) Automagically - Use the latest Update 9 RC* and select ICS Service Centre's Automatic Transmission! (seemless webapp integration and installation to automatically make your launcher Die-Hard!) Actually, when you run V6 Update 9 RC* for the first time, this option will be selected by default... so you really don't have to do ANYTHING...
B) Semi-automatically - Make your launcher Die-Hard with the ICS OOM Priority Charger webapp (latest Update 9 RC* can install and apply permissions via ICS Service Centre's manual mode)
C) Manually - Follow the complete tutorial below or/and use Jelly Scream Smali Patcher script to automate the actual editing!
3.SuperClean & ReStart! (ie. Wipe Dalvik Cache & Reboot)
Notes: For decent launcher detection use at least V6U9 RC6.9 or newer and check the bOOM Stick to see if the launcher the desired ADJ value!
.......... - Boot will take a LONG time as it "optimizes all your apps"
.......... - If it doesn't boot (unlikely if you did the edits yourself), try wiping caches (not data)
.......... - If it still doesn't boot, you can always just re-flash your current untouched rom but do have a backup nevertheless.
.......... - If you get FCs, fixing permissions will solve that. (Use the "Fix Emissions" Option in the latest V6 SuperCharger Script! )
That's It!
========================================================
WebApp Info - Mod your services.jar instantly with the ICS OOM Priority Charger!
Just go to http://android.mimic.ca with your devices browser and follow instructions!
In case of upload problems: If your Android browser closes while selecting file to upload, use Opera Mini web browser because it lets you select a file from within the app. Just copy services.jar to the sdcard first
CWM zip option is available!
But if you don't get the CWM zip, and instead download the modded services.jar, you can:
A) Do Steps 8 to 10 below! But first In Terminal Emulator, just type su and enter, busybox mount -o remount,rw /system and enter (Mount system as read/write).
OR...
B) Use the ICS Service Centre's manual mode in V6U9RC*
Help for webapp: Go to http://webchat.freenode.net , channel #v6_supercharger and talk to blk_jack (or me if I'm there)
Important: The webapp WON'T WORK for ODEX roms! ALL Stock ROMS are ODEX (I think... ) So if you have a services.odex file, you have to do it manually as described below
ODEX UPDATE! - You can now have the process somewhat automated on Windows with a batch script courtesy of rexstor .
..................................... - See [Guide][Batch][Odex Rom only!] To get another 50% v6 Supercharged script for ICS!
Deodex and ODEX Note: You can now use the ICS Service Centre's manual mode in V6U9RC9 for Steps 8 and 9 below!
========================================================
OK I got ICS SuperCharged!!
The problem with SuperCharging ICS is that ICS doesn't read ADJ values from build.prop or local.prop - they are hardcoded into services.jar!
So the script alone can only give you a 50% SuperCharge Level with only the V6 SuperCharger script.
Patching services.jar gives you the other 50% along with a SuperCharged Launcher!
ICS users still have to run the V6 SuperCharger script just like before! Use V6U9 RC6.9 or newer for decent launcher status detection!
Note: Of course, the V6 SuperCharger script is ALL YOU NEED on all previous Android ROMS!
So the mod below is for getting the Launcher at a SuperCharged Priority on ICS!
This is akin to the ADJ entries in build.prop or local.prop on earlier Android ROMS which don't work on ICS.
What gets changed?
I rearranged Priorties on ICS like so:
Code:
System -16 (stock)
Persistent Process -12 (stock)
ForeGround app 0 (stock)
Home Launcher 1 (Die-Hard Launcher) (stock=6)
Perceptible app 2 (stock)
Visible app 3 (stock=1)
Heavyweight app 4 (stock=3)
Previous app 5 (stock=7)
Service 6 (stock=5)
Backup app 7 (stock=4)
Service_b 8 (stock)
Hidden app min 9 (stock)
Hidden app max 15 (stock)
As you can see, there are ALOT more app categories now lol
I also decided to give a new app category a higher priority - Previous Apps.
Users with low ram devices will definitely be pleased with that
I was actually able to load Angry Birds, ran a different app, and went back to Angry Birds and it didn't have to restart.
It's practically unheard of for that game to stay in memory like that on my device
I really don't understand the logic of making Previous apps more killable than some app that you were using awhile ago (ie Service) so I fixed it

Step 2 after supercharging
AFTER SUPER CHARGING UR DEVICE

So what is Swap?
A swap file allows an operating system to use hard disk space to simulate extra memory. When the system runs low on memory, it swaps a section of RAM that an idle program is using onto the hard disk to free up memory for other programs. Then when you go back to the swapped out program, it changes places with another program in RAM. This causes a large amount of hard disk reading and writing that slows down your computer considerably.
I can say Swap file is like Virtual Memory on your PC.
The Swapper can Work on Many Devices. I tested it on Neo V, Arc S and Samsung Galaxy SII
Just to make sure it supports this kind of Feature. Free to try it, its harmless.
Requirements:
-Any Rom- (Tested on Acronium 4 and I-Scream)
-Custom Kernel- (Tested on KGT and Xarc Kernel)
-300+ sdcard space-
-Terminal Emulator-
Source: Google Play
or Attached File
Start:
Download the Swapper2 and install.
Click Here
2. Go to terminal emulator type "Free" without the Quotation.
Make sure you see "0" on the Swap
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. open swapper2 go to Setting, Swap size=32 MB, Swappiness=60. (You can Play on the numbers you want I just displayed a Default Swap Settings.)
Go Advanced preferences check "Recreate swap file" and "Reformat swap" then exit...
4. Open Swapper2 click ON it will show some Fail.
Just wait for few secs or mins and it will continue. If not, Click the ON again.
5. Go to terminal emulator type free and you will see that the "0" has been replaced.
Hit thanks if you think I helped.
Note:
This just give Everyone Idea that Swapfile is working without Partitioning your SD cards.

now u can play hd games without lagg!

why not enable "swap partition" in advance settings? that's what i usually do. also the phone runs a lot smoother with swap running all the time on ics but i'm just terrified that my beautiful 32gb class 10 sd card would be damaged. how do you use swap exactly?
edit: scratch that
Edit: also its reccommened to disable zram while using swap as the 2 conflict. Imo that is a bit of work if you dont have have swap running all the time because everytime before and after games you gotta enable and disable two scripts.

I tried this out, and still booting. Lol.
