Ultimate Multitasking SWAP - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Pac-man rom versus cm10.1

Hi all,
I know that pac-man rom says it incorporates CM10.1 and other goodies. But which is really better? What is in paranoidAndroid and AOKP that is not in CM10.1?
Cheers!

It's really a subjective matter; one isn't necessarily better than another. It's all what you like/prefer/need. Cyanogenmod is known for a good mix of stability, performance, and tweakability. Paranoid Android, for the most part, builds on Cyanogenmod and adds the hybrid engine for a hybrid phone/tablet layout that gives several options for customization. I haven't really used AOKP, but I do know that it is extremely customization oriented.
I'm using the Pac-Man Rom and it's working (almost) like a charm.
Only things that don't work are
1) Rear Camera
2) No zram option
3) Minfree Taskkiller not doing anything apparently, have set it to 50mb and never ever have 50mb free Sometimes even less than 5mb, which makes overall smoothness suffer a lot.
Other than that, with some initial troubleshooting I got it working perfectly fine, and it's A LOT faster and way more customizable than my previous Gingerbread Rom. There's some hidden setting for everything
I had to install and boot CM9 first though, then edit two entrys in build.prop (change venturi_usa to venturi).
Is there a way to make the minfree manager work? Can I just install another one from the market or is it gonna interfere with the one that comes preinstalled but doesn't work in the performance settings?
Nvm, user error. When I enter the task manager it just shows wrong information. Under running apps it appears to be showing the correct value.

Pac man rom is based on cm but with many added features

Persistent issue with all ROMs

Is there a specific reason as to why every ROM I'm on, if I use PIE, or Halo I get ridiculous lag? My notification stutters a great amount, and it seems as if the phone struggles to even change menus in the settings. I can't seem to find any resolution to this problem. I love the Galaxy Note a great amount, but this is making me want to switch to another phone. I've tried almost everything possible, even to the point where I wiped all of my precious data.

I've noticed lag when dealing with Halo, do not use it an only used it to test. Have used PIE before but no lag as you mentioning. If you are running both that could be the reason. Personally I do not use either so disable those and you should notice a difference. If not, re-wipe and re-flash and start over.

I have tried wiping, etc. I don't run both at the same time, no interest in Halo, Pie? yes. I'm just baffled as to why I can't solve this issue.

what ROM are you running is a good question. if you have a ripple effect on lockscreen, disabling that can help. if not as suggested disabling you Halo and even Pie is a possible start. I would then go to application manager and force stop if process is still running and then clear cache.
see how it runs then. if no lag, you can always restart Pie to try again. if lag comes back, there is your problem. if you have the Halo option, then I have a pretty good idea what kind of ROM you are running. I would think that it is a 4.2 ROM. if that is the case, you most likely have some Kernal options to try.
if it is one of JAIMED81's ROM's, he has a Q&A thread and you could get recommendations there as to which Kernal will work with which ROM.
good luck

Try this set up and see if it works, it's what I am running right now and so far is flawless.
Download; Carbon Rom, they are nightlies so grab the most recent one
Download; Uber Kernel
Download: Trickster Mod
Flash the rom and kernel and the gapps. Once up and running
Download: Trickster mod and sslauncher or any other launcher that you like if you feel the need to do so.
Trickster settings and info as follows:
Scroll to specific and turn off MP Decision hit the check mark at the top right hand corner
Scroll to General: Setting I have are -
TCP: cubic
Read Ahead: 3072
scheduler: sio
Frequency Lock: On
Min- 384000
Max - 1620000
Governor: smartassv2
Be sure to hit the check mark after each change and hit the menu button when done with all and set on boot, click enable and notification, can also click delay if you would like a delay.
Should help speed you up some.

your right, my bad........this is a BRADL79 ROM
never the less, a cm based ROM ( I know, AOKP also), therefore going to suffer some of the same effects.
an alternate Kernal is still going to be the possible fix or alieviation to your side effects.

what I think I will do, is no longer quote what base a ROM is. maybe its just my terminology that is wrong. all the more reason right?
what I keep seeing in OP's is "all merges from CM10"(for example) now that I am paying a bit more attention, that is for kernel?
go easy on me, I am still trying to learn some of this stuff. I don't mean to give any offense in misquoting the base of a ROM. all respect to you and the others who sacrifice for us. I just try and help whenever I can so the big brains don't have to sweat the small stuff.
this may be the 2nd or maybe 3rd time you have caught me in my terminology blunder.
again, I will either double check or not quote.
sorry JAIMED81

[ROM][Unofficial-Geeb]4.4.2_R2 SomethingExplosive[KVT49L][Mar.15.2014]

This is a little kang I did for myself and after seeing the good response in my 4.4.2_R1 aosp thread I decided to post this for everyone to try out.
It's not a hugely modified rom, its largely aosp with enough tweaks and addons to make it "just right" for me.
When I run this rom, I don't use xposed/gravitybox and turn on art. Its smooth smooth smooth.
First and foremost, big thanks to something15525 as its his rom, I just added device specific stuff and compiled for geeb.
Full features list can be found here: https://github.com/SomethingExplosive/android_vendor_SoMeX/blob/somex-4.4/FEATURES.mkdn
Quick highlights:
This rom has Superuser baked in so no need to flash SuperSU.
AOSP gesture enabled keyboard
VoicePlus - Google Voice integration into any SMS app
CM Torch built in
Busybox - helpful tools for terminal manipulation
Extended Power Menu - Reboot, Recovery, and Bootloader access from the power menu
Customized QuickSettings Toggles (WiFi and Bluetooth) - no more long press to toggle
Clear Recents Button - One button to clear everything in the recent apps display
Modded/Added by me:
Apollo
DSPManager
Removed pinyinn and openwnn
Rom link here (Updated with working auto brightness thanks to R.Asimi!):
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407579692
For the full google experience use these gapps from Banks (Updated by Banks Dec. 14, 2013):
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319195955
NFC fix for AT&T (Not needed anymore but left here for historical reasons):
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23134718111255697
Faux based geeb kernel option:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319195649
Down loaded and installed. Smooth, fast, and stable. I understand, that being first release, it misses some of the customization. Thanks for your work.
What is different between the included kernel and the Faux kernel?
Sweet.
So for clarity, you don't use xposed/gravity box but you do turn on art, or you also don't turn on art?

When I use the pure aosp build, I run xposed/gravitybox which in turn means I can't turn art on.
I'm running this rom now for the last few days without xposed/gravitybox and turn on art instead.
Art makes the phone even more responsive.

The faux kernel is more in line with faux's mako kernel release but with dual led green/red for canadian phones.
The included one is houstonns adreno kernel with added code for canadian phones with dual green/red led control.

The goal of this rom from the developers standpoint is to have minimal customization.
Think of it as aosp++
Just a few tweaks/addons without going insane and losing the stability and speed of aosp.

Appreciate your hard work. I was talking about simple customization such as bettery icon, time placement, quick setting tile rearrangement, etc. I wish you can add these customization.
Any trick to increase audio volume level ( I mean at max it is bit low)?
Cheers and merry Christmas.

Well, I think that this is not the ROM's goal. SoMeX is very close to aosp. If you want all that, you need either:
Another rom (cm)
Xposed and gravity box.

Sorry I'm not really into doing mods for my roms, but if someone wants to come up with a zip to do these things for you it would be welcomed in this thread!
Only reason I asked was, I tried the build prop edit adding "qemu.HW.mainkey=0" and went to the generic keypad and tried disabling the hardware keys and it didn't work.
Here is to hoping some one can write up a quick zip to do this.

I was on this ROM for a few days and had no issues at all! Very well done!
I switched to Slimkat for the extra features though, and I miss the colors this ROM has! What was edited...was it the gamma, the contrast, the levels? Is there a file I can edit to get the same overall color feel that this ROM has? What values are set for this ROM so I can match it on any other ROM I happen to try?

Do you get more or less performance with Lollipop?

I tried two ROMs, CM12 by Temasek and CM12 by Archi. Both weren't fast as Kitkat for me. I was using boeffla kernel with battery saving presets (1ghz CPU, underclock GPU, and both undervolt). This is what I use on Kitkat too but it performed better. Can you guys give me your views that how you feel it performs and if you thinks its better than Kitkat, list me your kernel and ROM.
And my main problem is xposed modules. One is gravity box and other is hack connectivity services and last one my favorite is greenify. I use gravity box to turn on flash light on lock screen by holding home button. I also use it to skip songs by volume keys but I think its possible in LP without modules. I use it for other purposes too but I want any alternatives for my most used favorite functions. I use hack connectivity services module to do reverse tethering and use all apps. Any alternative for that too? You can ignore greenify.
Another major issue is that when I restored apps from Ti backup, most of them didn't worked. I think its related with runtime? Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!

Is your device stuttering that much on Oreo ROMs?

As in title. EVERY single oreo ROM works good for a while, and after like 2 hours it's starting to lag, stutter and is practically unusable. What's the reason behind that? Nougat ROMs works like a charm tho
I'm experiencing it too. I've tried 12 Oreo roms so far.

I haven't experienced any lags that make phone unusuable. A few spikes might come up when using and switching between heavy apps maybe, but not in a way that make phone feel laggy. I use this phone as a daily driver so i can't stand with lags etc. That was my main concern before switching to oreo, but it looks really fine to me. Also, using velvet kernel (limited to 1.6ghz by default) those tiny spikes i mentioned look normal to me. I don't use phone for gaming, so it's enough for me as long as battery and smoothness are balanced.

Try pressing recents button from home. If you have overlays like swipepad, you'll experience extreme stuttering when you go to recents from your homescreen.
This doesn't happen in nougat ROMs.

It struggles to render when you have a lot of overlays like swipepad or Facebook chat heads or some floating thingie on your screen. Since not everyone uses them, only a small number of people experience the stutters and hence their posts get ignored.
The issue is with "surfaceflinger", which is what is responsible for drawing UI elements. Test using swipepad on your RR ROM. Install it, enable it, go to home and press recents. If you're not sure, try more apps that draw on your screen (like screen filter, meteor swipe etc)
Please report the results here as I'd be happy to switch to any Oreo rom that doesn't have the issue (but I'm pretty sure I've tried them all and omnirom had it the least, so I'm on that). Also I'd like to know whether the OP uses any such apps.

Please report the results here as I'd be happy to switch to any Oreo rom that doesn't have the issue (but I'm pretty sure I've tried them all and omnirom had it the least, so I'm on that). Also I'd like to know whether the OP uses any such apps.

Do you think that also affects games that uses multiple touch? Because on every rom whenever i play games that requires two different action to be done at same time touch screen flies and "malfunctions".

Depends on the game. Do all of those games behave like that or is it one specific game?

Only play mobile legends and coc. On oreo roms its hard to multi touch its way to sensitive and the touch is way too shaky. After downgrading to nougat it was fixed. Maybe it is the surfacefling thing.

Hello,
I'm on LOS 14 right now and I'm wondering if it is worth upgrade to Oreo. Is it still all that buggy with connection problems and what not?

In my opinion, stay with Nougat for now. There are many awesome Oreo ROMs out there (thanks to the amazing developers) but most of them have some bugs. If you want stability, I suggest you stick to Lineage or any other nougat ROM for now.
Kudos to developers!
