Need help finding an article I had read on fixing the Fascinates font pixelation. Pictures look awesome, but the fonts are a bit fuzzy, especially smaller fonts. I had read it just last week, but cannot find it in my history anywhere. Whatever they did really sharpened the fonts (at least in the screenshots). I am pretty sure it was about the Fascinate, but it may have been AMOLED in general.
Thanks in advance.
Found it!

lol, I was just thinking about this. I don't think there's a voodoo kernel for the Fascinate that supports this. I would LOVE to be proven wrong though.
Yeah, I just installed a voodoo kernel and don't see any color settings, just audio via the Voodoo Control App.

Incorrect, there are a few that support this color fix. However as I recall reading, it only works at 100% brightness.

Do you know which ones offhand?
I am using jt1134's latest at 100% brightness and don't see any difference.
Now that I am on the right track though, I will just have to do a little more research.

Wow, it has been a while since I have been on my Fascinate! I think Voodoo no longer supports color tuning though. My son is using my Fascinate right now with Devil Kernel and I think it supports color tuning through an add on program. I pulled the following from the Devil Kernel thread on the Fascinate. I will also check on my sons phone tonight to see if any of these work. Good luck!

As well as plenty other programs
"Devil Kernel Manager" does work ,,, Some setting, though, do not stick across a reboot

I prefer to Use
"mcTweaker ® root" program I can set pretty much all the stuff that "devil kernel config" would normally let you do,,, and scripts auto run on reboot
...only things I dont see with mctweaker are No :Ram Settings = Xl/Big Mem :: :: Live OC :: :: but it has a few other things you can tweak and set that I really like...
not to mention
"ROM Toolbox Lite " is excellent with the stuff available in it...
I also prefer to Use

Edit: Wish I could edit the subject to say "recommended", I know it's not REQUIRED
Just wondering if SetCPU is needed to access some of the "Smartass" features. I'm a total noob when it comes to rooting, and just installed the kernel yesterday.
So far I am loving the results but just wondering where the smartass features come in? I will install SetCPU if required. I want to use this kernel to it's utmost potential!
Thanks!

If you are running Das Bamf 1.6+, then you can use the toolkit in the ROM to switch the governor to smartass - no SetCPU needed. If you are running another rom, however, and want to change the governor to smartass (if it's not the default) then you will likely need SetCPU or NoFrillsCPU (not sure if that is the right name).
thanks for the reply. I am running stock rom with the kernel. I will spring for SetCPU in this case!

Using same kernel. I have mine overclocked all the way up (1497) on SetCPU using on demand scaling. Running BAMF remix 1.6.1. I've done this based on other members suggestions and loving it so far.
One more question, since I just installed the BAMF Remix ROM onto my phone:
since bamf has cpu control built in, which takes precedence? SetCPU or what I set in the BAMF toolbox?

You should really use the built in CPU Settings in the toolbox IMO you are just using more resources by using SetCPU.
And as for which one will override the other I believe it is just which one starts up first. If you have them both set the same you probably wont notice. Again though you are really wasting resources if you use SetCPU since this ROM has it built in.

Neither really takes "preference" - they both will adjust the CPU setting - such as, if you changed something in SetCPU and then went into the toolbox, you'll see that the changes were "made" there too. They both adjust the settings of the kernel, and both read the settings the same way.
I don't use SetCPU profiles, but if you do (like screen off, etc.) then those might take preference. But both will work the same, except that SetCPU has a few more "frills" like profiles and stuff. Like stated above, using the profiles will use more resources, however.

My SGS2 didn't boot anymore after flashing the 3.0beta7 .tar via Odin. Flashed my old kernel back and it boots again..
Nice and interesting topic matey.
Will try and report it.
But could I ask you settings for best battery life? I mean sure you can help too.

1. ICS ROMs only
2. Siyah kernel compatable.
3.try a Rom tht already uses siyah 3.0
or check gokhanmorals thread:

Test it now and report it later..thx..was searching optimal settings for extweaks..
Thank's man.
Look good here.
It's the first time i tweak my phone, but it's possible to do that without apps, just by editing a file via ssh?
I don't like GUI ^^
Thank's
Nice topic mate... I wonder where you got the idea from...
can we apply "save as boot settings" ?
and one more thing. Do we need to apply your setting in both apps i.e. extweaks and voltage control ?

First test if these settings adapt to your device using the GUI elements(VC/ExTweaks).....
test for a day or so...if all goes well....u cud go init.d

the ExTweaks are recommended.
VC is optional.
I have applied both but it does'nt seems any problem.
GUI has been improved and for battery let me check for a day.
Bechmark result has been decreased to 3438 as previously it was 4410 with same Siyah kernal in GS 2 with Omega V6.0 ICS black blue edition.

Benchmark is gonna give u junk values.
It conflicts with the tweaks meant for battery savings....to generate a lower value.
In Real-Time its a whole different scenario
Thanks for good explaination.

Hi,
I have an Xperia Mini Pro running stock 4.1.B.0.587 with MESA kernel 3.5. I have frozen/uninstalled quite a few of the bundled applications and I have replaced the default launcher with Nova Launcher Prime. After a reboot, the phone is quite snappy and fast, no lag when redrawing and everything is working very nicely together. However, after a few hours to a day of use, it gets quite sluggish: slow redraws, animations stutter, apps block/hang for a few seconds etc.
I would like to investigate this further, but I'm not quite sure of how to proceed. One thing that I have seen is that if I go Settings->Apps->Running, after a few hours to a a day of use, there are a few applications or services which say "restarting".
Do you guys have any ideas on what's going on?
Thank you!
One think I would suggest you is to debloat your phone as much as possible and then search for more ways!
Press THANKS if I helped,
Best Regards,
AJ
Hello,
Thank you for replying. I have already done that, there are few applications which I kept from the stock ROM. What else can I do?

No, I'm not using any task killer or other system tuning apps, just the stock ROM without the bloatware. Otherwise, I use "normal", day-to-day apps.

You can try pimp my rom alpha from play store to add some tweaks and scripts to make your phone faster
Sent from my Xperia Mini Pro using xda premium
Yep pimp my Rom is good....also try some awesome tweaks of project fluid by mv_style and also the v6 supercharger, etc...that will make ur Rom faster but you can't anyhow expect very much from the stock Rom but u can always depend on custom roms based on stock if you want...

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try it one of these days. Any other ideas, guys?
Use Android Assistant (18 features) and clean the cache. Do it often, ICS really generates a lot of cache compared to GB.
Though the best thing to do would be to flash a GB rom if you want your phone to be really smooth :good:
Simply restarting the phone will do the job!
Restart it once every (two) day(s).
or
Change the minfree and ADJ settings.
EDiT: check your vfs_cache_pressure value
If it's low, set a higher setting. MESA kernel sets it to 30, which is quite low and causes lags at the end of the day.
You can try to raise it to default stock 100 and see if that helps
Code:
echo "200" > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure;
Flash a custom ROM. Usually they last longer without lag then stock ROM.
Also another solution is, you can try my X-PLODE tweaks. I think it should really boost your phone since it's on stock ROM.
Based on my experience after flashing almost EVERY available ROM and kernel on my st15i, I can suggest:
1. Use a memory manager like Smart RAM, Autokiller Memory Optimizer etc.
2. Use a cache cleaner app and set it to clear cache once or twice a day.
3. Use an app like SystemCleanup (free) and delete any system app you don't use or like.
4. You can send apps like your custom browser (I strongly suggest Nova) or GPS app to /system/app/ via SystemCleanup.
5. Flash custom kernel (I strongly suggest LuPuS or MESA Hybrid).
6. Find a light and fast custom ROM that suits your needs and flash it.
7. Enjoy. The power of Android is in your hands !
Thank you, everyone, for taking the time and answering me.
I want way more multitasking enabled on my phone. I am using omni 5.1.1 with apolo 8b9 zram enabled (395mb).
Idk if it is related with oom or minfree. And idk optimized multitasking values for them.
So can anyone help?

Hi,
Since you're using OmniROM, then you can use OmniSwitch to get more multitasking. If you're willing to change your ROM, then you can switch to SlimLP or SlimSaber to get the SlimRecents, which offers some unique ways to multi-task.
If you're unwilling to change your ROM and are already using OmniSwitch, then you should download this app, and maybe the premium one as well if you like it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.floating.notifications
