[Q] Phone tweeks on CM7.2 RC1 - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently running CM7.2 RC1 which runs amazingly and hardly uses any battery at all. Is anyone else using this ROM and tried installing Adrenaline Mod, Supercharged V6, or EXT4 all? I've tried but I haven't seen any performance increases after applying them. Does RC1 have them built in already?
Thanks!

If there is no performance improvements that you can see from installing the mods then I don't see a need to install the mods.
CM does not have any of the mods you listed. ext4 support has been added to the ramdisk of cm7 a few months back but it's not quite the same as the mod as it doesn't actually convert the filesystems like the mod does.

Do you use any of the mods? If you have, have you noticed any boots in performance?

I use ext4 and adrenaline. Ext4 is better internal memory management so no real user-end improvements, adrenaline has helped to speed things up for me. I feel like I can underclock a little bit more with it on.

What is your max clock now? Right now I'm down to stock speed again because I don't see a boost with being overclocked.

I found stock speeds (245/998) in setcpu or cm settings was best.
I hate to sound like a broken record but if you don't see an improvement with it being overclocked then the only other reason would be bragging about better benchmarks. Phone will run cooler at stock, more stable and probably better battery too.
And depending if you're running the kernel with cm7.2 or another kernel there are also governor settings to play with.

Thanks for your input! Now my only issue is how to check to see what is keeping my phone awake while the screen is off. Are there any apps or another way to check this? I'll attach a screenshot once I'm at a PC.

[Q] ROM + Kernel combo for good battery life?

What's a good ROM + Kernel combo for good battery life w/o sacrificing performance. Stupid question, I know.... Right now I'm running Synergy RSL1 & Freedom 0.8.5 set at 245-1.113. With 3.0 widgets and carousel. Not getting good battery life at all.
What are u guys running?

If you want to stick with a Sense ROM, try Synergy RLS1 + Freedom Kernel 0.8.5 Aggressive. This is a popular combination for Sense users and one that I am using now. My EVO has never run better.
I dont want to get into a Sense v. AOSP debate, but I dont see how AOSP has "lots of goodies" compared to sense. First of all, it all depends on the rom you are running as to what "goodies" any particular has. An AOSP rom by nature is a stripped down, bare bones Gingerbread ROM. I've personally found that moving to AOSP had MORE limitations in terms of features. More recently, ROMS like CM have added in missing features like 4G, etc. The old argument was that AOSP would always be faster. In real world use, with a good, optimized rom like Synergy or Warm 2.2 (soon 2.3) and a good kernel, you wont notice much speed difference at all.

Nothing against Sense.. just that, apparently, the dude hasn't tried AOSP. In particular, he was interested in battery life hence Vipermod which is AOSP based only...
I like most recent MikG and Koni's Elite series, of course.
Yeah I don't think so either lol I tried VaelPacs AOSP I thought it was pretty good

I recommend using juice defender ultimate. Here are my specs:
Synergy RLS1
More freedom kernel
Min 128, max 1190, max idle 384
Interactivex setting
I get 15 hours off the charger with 10 hours and 10 minutes awake time, moderate use.
High use I get about 9 hours and 27 mins.
All of this with regular texts/emails coming in with no slowdown.
And I listen to music on it for about 2 hours straight.

Well.... Yeatarday, I flashed r3chargeD, didn't reinstall setCPU or anything, I'm on 14 hours of battery and still at 71%. Running as smooth as you could want. At first I installed setCPU and my phone started bootlooping.... I reflashed w/o and it seems perfect.... I did partition SD, also.
If I did want to try an AOSP, What's better, CM7 or MIUI?

I just came from synergy rls1 and it drained my battery. I tried it with GM kernel, Freedom (univ.), and chopsuey, none of which helped. Had some lag also. I just liked synergy so much because of all the themes and Mods.
I think I've found the ONE! I'm going to try it for a few days and see how it works....

If you use r3charg3d RLS1-ish, then you don't need to use SetCPU. If you use the kernel that comes with it, it has a overclock/underclock daemon that overclocks to 1.2ghz (1190400mhz) when screen is on and underclocks when screen is off to 245mhz
Flash the updated a2sd with it whenever you do a fresh ROM install, found here. You will have to install apps fresh from Market (no Titanium)
My battery will refuse to die no matter what. Two days running on medium usage and still going, maybe 20% left. Oh, I use Juice Defender Ultimate with Agressive settings.

If you have partitioned your SD card before, you do not need re-partition again unless you deleted the partition.
I don't understand when you say "disable setcpu". If you use the stock kernel, you do not need to install SetCPU at all.

I have setCPU installed now. Instead of uninstalling, I was wondering if I could just disable it to see if r3chargeD would run smoother w/o it. For some reason it switches governors on me. Like now I have it set to ondemand with about 4 profiles. I might notice some lag, check it, and will be on smartass (with profiles still enabled). Very weird, dude!

[Q] Best ROM for gaming?

About the best thing you can do is get a lightweight ROM, Overclock your custom kernel
R2R going green and download no frills app to overclock, whatever it is if its sense I strongly reccomend amon ra recovery and ChopSuey kernel

+10 This is the correct answer!!
Honestly any good aosp ROM.....decks, cm7, whatever. U should also give the savagedzen kernel a go. My handset seems to like it better, especially for intense graphic stuff......tiamat is still the standard though.
Thanks guise, should give them a try :3
i came into this thread, curious, since i've turned my evo into a media/game device and was wondering if there was a better setup than i'm currently using.
but apparently deck's 1.3 with tiamat 3.3.7 sbc and chainfire3d is... pretty hard to beat
I was not saying sense was better for gameing, I was saying if u are going to use sense that will work great on ALL levels, as in customization, speed, and simplicity...

Who's thread? I'm curious on how to use CF3D
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14091373
Chainfire3d basically replaces your opengl driver with his modified version. Download the app, open it up, and click install Chainfire3d drivers. In his thread he gives pretty detailed information on what each of the settings do.
Deck's AOSP Rom or Barnacles AOSP Rom are the best to try, they are as base as you can get (CM7 comes with ADW Launcher blah) And either kernels mentioned above but I use Tiamat.
Use setCPU to set up 'performance' governor and max speed of 1.19 anything in the 1.2 range and you risk freezing/crashing. It all depends on your phone tho so you're welcome to try out 1.2Ghz OC if your phone can handle that stable.
Chainfire isn't really required as I only use it in rare occasions. usually to play Tegra based games or to use it's OpenGL features to lower texture quality etc..
Only drawback to the AOSP roms I've found tho are that multi-touch can be a bit buggy, if you're pressing with one finger already then another to move the screen around in lets say an FPS game, it's very choppy whereas Sense roms are smooth (but it might just be phone specific) Another slight issue I've noticed in AOSP roms is they make poor use of the radio/wifi drivers, I get better signal/wifi reception on Sense based roms, but this was a topic for gaming so anyway.. I'm currently testing a recently released sense 1 official Evo OG rom for games and I'm actually impressed (using it with stock kernal no SetCPU) soon I will be trying out some kernels but if you hate AOSP you should give some of the custom OG Roms a try.

tweaks / mods

looking for an undervolt script for the incredible, also what performance tweaks can be used with the incredible? ie v6 supercharger, COD tweaks, sorry i don't even know if these tweaks work with the incredible or not i'm an OG evo user, but I rooted my roommates phone and flashed MIUI v4 on it now we just need to make it buttery smooth ;]
Vipermod is a nice under volt script. Its pretty old so I don't know which page itd be on. V6 supercharger or adrenaline are recommended by many users as far as tweaking the phone and rom. As similar as evo is to Inc most of the same tweaks should work on both. Just don't go flashing an evo kernel on the incredible lol.

The same script should work as long as the kernel has the proper sys interfaces (incredikernel and tiamat do on the incredible). The same voltages you have may not. As I thnk vipermod allows a decrease in increments I usually just decrease everything by 50 or 75.
However, I think incredicontrol by chad0989 is awesome and has a good user interface. There is an add supported free version on the market and it works well with incredikernel but not every feature is supported on tiamat (voltages and cpu governor changes are though).

No, actually i prefer not supercharging, supercharge give you GREAT(I MEAN REALLY GREAT) multitasking, which on the other hand gives you less power for hard gaming.
Seeder gives you perfect performance and is supposed to give a better battery life(didn't notice a change in battery) so i think it is FANTASTIC tweak
and for the record (not being arrogant) i have improved that rom to give good gaming, good multitasking and it has some battery tweaks, the only problem is that the GB doesn't support the latest GPU drivers, so some games (not all) has some minor graphic bugs
Try going the pristine way, i suggest using CM10 because i simply love that rom.
While using CM9 RC2. Try using kernels with bigmem or maxmem. If you dont take picture at all, use maxmem all the way.
I suggest hadi's bigmem. More memory, less hassle. And its lulzactive is great for gaming. Use seeder v7. These 2 should get you going enough.

GloryROM (Base on V20С EU O2)

Hi! I know many people using STOK ROMs because its stable.
So I just did little MOD of stok ROM every day use.
Features:
- Removed SW SecurityLock. So you never dont see "Security Error". Now you can do with ROM everything, can remove difference apps, modify apps, framework, do difference soft-mod and other.... ;
- Deleted old GAps, and added new;
- Deleted trash apps;
- Soft-touch touchscreen;
- Added support for init.d script;
- Added init.local.rc, in userspace, now you can add different service and change parameters for example SDCard cache (1mb now) or turn-on/off. KSM, and other;
- Rework STOK kernel, base on sources P930 (AT&T):
- minimum no needed path only system optimizations;
- few new shedulers;
- few new governos;
- reduced power consumption;
- turn-on SWAP, if you need it I can give script for it;
- turn-on KSM;
- turn-on zRAM and other stuff;
- Default frequency - 1 512mhz;
- Default shedulers - dead-line;
- Default governos - performans;
- Added LG-LED-notifications and IME from 4.1, superuser and other.
No modem inside, use it what you like, I am using 20f.

http://dfiles.ru/files/j7msfxxxo
my device on 1512 in Antitu show me OVER 8100.
coming from you, at least it is worth to try it. downloading now. if its enough fast for me, i might use it as daily driver. cm9 and cm10 still have serious issues with random reboots and BSODs. i have been with your CM10 almost since day 1, great rom besides the battery drain.
Very fast, but incompatible with Wind-Kernel 3.0.

You dont need it. Current kernel is not worse then Wind-Kernel!
Later I will make CrazyKernel for it with CPU O/C and real GPU O/C. Our Andreno 220 have 266mhz by default. I can increase it to 400mhz - its maximum for Andreno 220. But Kernel will have very small battery life. So need choose for what you need ROM, for every day using or just for playing games with charger.
Just report. I am comfortable with the good battery life. Thank you.

So this rom is based on v20 .... can i still run it and have signals under v10 ?
rom pretty stable, just like stock is. dunno if it has only happened to me but stock lg roms seem to have less sensitive digitizer. HO!NO!'s v20 and att stock is same, just like this one.
overall the rom is great besides the common "lag" on lg stock roms for this device.

If you are under sotck ICS, yes you have to use an unbrick method to get back to GingerBread since when LG rolled out the ICS update, it locked the bootloader as well. I also did that and it works, i used heretics unbrick method, very easy if you follow the step accordingly.
I've been using GloryROM since shortly after it was posted. So far, it's been very stable with excellent battery life. I installed by "dirty flashing" over HO!NO! P930 Bell Official V20f. I'm very happy with it and plan on sticking with this ROM for awhile. Loving the stability! :good:
Did the touch screen modification and I feel it better, although could be placebo effect. Btw awesome battery life. I'm still on 70% with my regular use in about 12 hours. By this time I was usually about 40%.
