Use the bulletproofing apps option in the v6 supercharger.

i dont have the file which he mentioned.
The line "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1" in /data/local.prop also keeps home in memory - it has the same effect as CM's "Lock Home In Memory".
So in light of what I was seeing in AMM, I have changed it to 0 so it now reads:
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0
(blank line)
I'm using Sony JB stock rom.

if you have batterysaver / rambooster, it will kill apps ,, you need to add important apps to whitelist/ignore list to prevent them from being closed

@NeoCream; wich settings did you use?
I just installed option 4 and everything seems to work like it should. Dont feel any different so far but this is really interestning, please share your findings.

before I installed the script (with option 3) I had AutoKiller Memory Optimizer installed. I removed the app and just let the script handle the memory.
The system feels as fluid as with the app but the script does not force my launcher (GO Launcher EX) to redraw the icons in certain situations. Scrolling and everything works as good as with the AutoKiller Memory App... just without the nasty side-effect e.g. re-drawing launcher-icons.

Hi there , when I tried to install V6 Supercharger , it requires Busybox 1.18.2 OR LOWER but how do we get a previous version of that app ?
Open up Busy Box and you should see on the top of the page a drop down menu where you can chose which version of busy box you want to install. After selecting your version of choice just hit the install button!
Sent from my LT15i using Tapatalk
When you say open up busy box , do you mean in the market ? or do i have to download it then open up ?
When you have Busy Box installed it should show up in the app drawer (where you have all your other apps).
Just launch it from there.
works like a charm. noticeable less lag after running script. Thanks!
What settings do you guys exactly use? And which fits best for the Arc?
And does it remove the ability to do OTA updates like removing system apps?

The app is actually called 'Busybox installer' download it from the market and then after it has been installed, open it then click the drop down list at the top then choose the version of busybox you want to install. This app will download and install the version of busybox you want
just annoying, can't get it to work
installed busybox 1.18.1 (via busybox installer)
Script manager installed from market
V6 script in root of SD card
In script manager only checked: browse as root
Open V6 turbo....txt and checked only run as root
set 1 (for scrolling text) and after this option 6
after this chosen option 17 (exit)
reboot phone. when I want to check if it works fine and open Script manager again, V6 turbo.txt with only run as root checked, nothing has changed. I have to choose scrolling text value again
Someone see what I do wrong?
Kind regards
Vintiem
It works great .. Really can feel the difference ..
Thanks NeoCream

Couple newbie questions from DAGr8's Alpha 2 ICS

1) The haptic feedback on pressing the Home button feels ever so slightly delayed compared to how it was original in GB and the other GB ROMs. Could be in my head. Anyone else experiencing this and if so, know how to fix it?
2) Apex launcher that is included in the ROM seems cool but to put widgets on the home screen it says I need to install it as a system app or have root or something. I have root of course - how do I get it as a system app?
3) When I try to install the Chrome beta browser it's giving me "Error - Error processing purchase" dialog. Any ideas on how to fix this? When google searching this problem it seems like it might be on Google's end and I should just wait it out.
4) People in the dev forum are talking about some multi-dpi fix. I didn't run that since I have no clue what that is or what they're talking about.
5) Also people are saying that the VM heap is wrong or something on this build. I have no idea what that is or how it will effect me.
Okay I think that is all for now. Thanks!

Might be a little delayed, it's a leaked release, so anything is possible. I haven't noticed it. Don't think you're going to fix it.

You move the apk to system/app using Root Explorer or another file manager that has access to the root directory.

Sorry, installation was fine for me. Have you tried installing from the website and pushing to your phone instead of directly on your phone.

Multi-DPI fix are for people who are running their phones with a DPI (Dots Per Inch) that is different from the stock 320 DPI. A lot of people use an LCD Density of 240 which causes some poorly (read Samsung TouchWiz apps) written apps to scale badly on screen, like the dialer. If you aren't changing your DPI then you don't have to worry about the fix. They won't hurt anything, but they're not needed for you.

I'm the wrong person to give details on how the VM Heap works, but the stock ICS leak uses 256 and people have claimed performance improvements by reducing the VM Heap to 128 or 64. I've got it at 128 and it seems to have improved performance, but I cannot say for sure.
You can change LCD Density and VM Heap with apps like ROM Toolbox. You can also move Apex to system/app with ROM Toolbox. It's a rather useful app.

If you have titanium backup you go to backup/restore tab and locate Apex launcher. Long press on it and at the bottom you will see "convert to system app".

[Q] Apex Launcher has stopped

Hi,
When ever I turn my phone on, I always get:
"Unfortunately, Apex Launcher has stopped"
What could be causing this?
use android injector from your pc to install any other additional launcher. clear cache and data of apex
Or you can uninstall and reinstall apex launcher again.

just in case you have done a backup before you can try this:
go in recovery mode, backup and restore/advanced restore/choose the backup/restore system..... that should fix
otherways if you don't have a backup done you can load the same deodex rom on your external/sd and then go on recovery.....
hope this will help you

for that purpose he can use "android injector" to install any launcher, after that he can switch to that launcher and install/reinstall/uninstall apex
Tried Android Injector for the same problem, fails to load new launcher every time. Thanks anyway for the suggestion though

please tell me how to clear cache

not to necro, but heres an easy fix
The problem was bad (or improperly upgraded?) saved data in the launcher app. Here's how I fixed it.
At the dialog above, press "Report"
When in the report screen, drag down the notification bar at the top of the screen.
Press the settings button in the upper left of the notifications area.
Tap "Apps", then "All", then Apex find Launcher in the list. Tap Apex Launcher.
Tap "Clear Data".
You lose your home screen customizations, but at least the phone now works again.
you can also just choose to uninstall it

Same here, after the update today (09/24) Apex launcher froze. Since I had another launcher no issue with phone's operation.
Is clearing the data only option? or is there any issue with the latest update?
Clear data didn't help me after today's problem.. seems to me that there's a problem with this certain update
you can enter the settings using the drag-down menu and then uninstall updates to the launcher
you lose your settings and home screen..
I had backups for them so just restored them and it's working again
hopefully they'll fix it soon
same here
on Droid X ICS Gummy
Updated launcher today...
Had to uninstall the update
all better now
Thx

This is the only thing that worked for me. Uninstall updates. It seems that the new version of Apex Launcher (v1.2.5) constantly crashes. Hopefully v1.2.6 comes out soon!
Looks like an issue across the board, I'm still stuck.. All users have reported the issue in the Play storelink
From s3forums:
"The Dev has been contacted and a fix in progress"
Who knows how long but at least they know. I'm gonna keep my settings for now and suffer with my uncustomized Go or TW or whatever for now. Hopefully it wont be long. Nice beta testing huh.....
Ver:1.3.1 working great

Apex Launcher is back, dev has done a great job in bring it back in a day!! Go ahead and grab the latest version and enjoy the launcher.
I installed Nova launcher to get my phone working. And to be honest, I think I stick with it for a while. Multi select app to put them on a page or create a map is very easy.
Maybe it is also possible with Apex, but it have not found it.

No text notifications

After installing v6 supercharger my chomp sms notifications show up extremely late or don't show until I open the app. What could cause this?

There maybe occasions where some apps may conflict with scripts, so the best option is to contact the developer of the script.
But was causes the app to be killed

Supercharger script changes the OOM groupings and priorities to provide more available memory in certain situations, while this is normally a good thing what is likely happening is the script changes the priorities on your messaging application to be lower so when you go to use other apps or the system needs more memory it forces it out of memory and as a result kills the app. This is why your not getting the notifications because the app is getting killed. For information about how Supercharger script works check out this link:
