[Q] Best AutoKiller settings?

What are the best auto killer settings for the arc?(for rooted and non-rooted)

Don't.
The phone doesn't need one and most task killing apps just end up making things worse.
Sure, in the old days when phones has less RAM and Android was a less mature platform they were a necessity but not any more.

^This.
The best setting for any auto-task killer is: disabled.

The memory management is pretty good as it is. There's no need for a task killer.

Thanks for the advice. I guess I will keep it off. So you guys dont find your phones laggy because i find the arc quite laggy.

I have a Neo, same specs as the Arc, and after you haven't wiped all data for a few weeks, it becomes laggy too. Especially when switching between applications.
But I saw this post:

Haven't tried it, but it might be worth a try.

about V6 supercharger

don't use an autokiller. Use the supercharged script instead

Nope, not in the slightest and all I've done is remove a little bit of the bloatware.
If I were having trouble with the handset's responsiveness, the only thing I would do would be to install Spare Parts and use it to set the OS's own task/memory management to be more aggressive.

do i need an unlocked bootloader to use the supercharged script?

as long as ur phone get rooted.

supercharger on aggressive mode 2 (option 3) = better option than autokiller
so far so good on my arc.
hugely noticeable difference on my office mate's x10i as well

[Looking for] Xperia Play enhances such as more ram or sth

As in topic. Im looking for any enhancements form my xperia play such as increasing size of ram, applications memory or sth like that. I didnt put it in offtopic cos i dont think that it is offtopic. Please move my topic if u think different.

Two things I would definately recommend.
1: V6 SuperCharger
2: Xperia PLAY Tweaks from this thread....

You cannot make ure Ram or anything bigger by replace hardware just optimise with software

No you do not need a unlocked BL. Just need root and busybox and script manager. But honestly just get your bootloader unlocked. It's worth the 24$.

What's script manager?
How does it work though? Do they add something to the hardware or is it software based? :S If it's software why can't I do it for free?

Its much easier to use Ram manager app. I found it seams to do more for our play's we have. Then Supercharger V6 and a lot easier to set up when you want different setting's. We just wondered why the supercharger dev never made his script into an app instead of using script manager. This is really what ram manager did. All you need is root.
hope this helps as is another option.

Script manager runs written coded scripts that change things written in your device's code.
Supercharger is software based. All it add's is some build.prop tweek's really and tells you device to kill running background apps like a hardcore version of Advanced Task Killer

I already have ram manager pro,running the script for V6 supercharger now.

Really? The scrolling speed is what speed the text is going move in Script Manager. If you're having problems that early on with the options, good luck getting the rest of it set up.

I would seriously recomend doomlord's doomkernel. It supports over clocking. I'm loving it at 2Ghz. I ran v6 but in all honesty I didn't notice a difference what so ever. I'm actually doubting wether it does anything at all.

I have doomlord kernel and i can overclock it 2 2GHz too but it drains battery so much that it is pointless to do it.
Otherwise - thanks every1 for help especially jgregoryj1 and poo-tang

V6 Supercharger on Stock SE ROM ?
Hi guys,
I noticed some of you in this thread are having excellent results with V6 Supercharger script.
I tried to install this script on my XPeria Play R800i under Stock SE ROM 2.3.4 without success.
Frozen screen on reboot and recovery through ClockWorkMod to get it up again.
Do you use the V6 Supercharger on stock ROM or on a custom ROM ?
Thanks for your answers,

Hi there,
As nobody answered my call so far, I come back to give feedback on my own experience.
I tried again to install the V6Supercharger Script and manage to get through this time.
The first time, I guess I simply did not wait enough time.
In fact, I had to wait like almost 10 minutes on the Sony-Ericson XPeria logo (after the boot animation) before my phone came back to life.
It can be quite stressful so just be prepared !
After that, I went through the pin code entry screen and found out some of my widgets did not properly load and some applications were not showing up.
Therefore, I rebooted and everything went fine on the second time. All the apps showed up properly (only mixed up in the scrolling app section).
Launching the script again, it confirmed my phone was 100% supercharged with the following settings (script previously set as root, run at boot):
- DieHard launcher
- Rock&Roll Kernel
- Miscellaneous tweaks and 3G enhancement installed
- 512HP setting with V6 CustOOMizer option
- Minfrees set at 8, 12, 40, 47, 55 and 62MB
with 367MB of Ram (is this correct for the XPlay ?).
This was applied on the Sony Ericsson stock ROM 2.3.4 and the stock Kernel.
The first impression was that the scrolling between various home displays was faster.
I started Dead Trigger, running correctly (maybe just a bit slower, not sure) and when I exited the game, I had almost no Redraw time to wait.
Before V6 Supercharger, I used to wait around 5 seconds before all the icons were there again and I could scroll.
This time, the icons were right there and the scrolling hesitated for maybe 1 second but got super smooth again right after that.
Ok, this is to share my experience with you, guys.
No idea if anyone has experience on the XPlay ? Maybe using other settings ?
As there is a clear note that this script is not intended for heavy gamers, it tends to indicate it should not be really used on the XPlay, mainly used by heavy gamers.
What is your opinion on that ?
Cheers,

[Q] My xperia play can run the games smoothly only right after reboot

I usually play Fifa 12 with my xplay. it run so smooth but only when I reboot the phone before I play the game. So when I play Fifa12 during the day, There is so much lag and slowdown, Even with Hard gaming mode of ram manager pro and use fast reboot app before I play the game. on the other hand, if I reboot my phone. Every game run so smooth and I don't need to change to hard gaming mode in ram manager pro.
Any suggestion ?
ps. Sorry for my english

Because your system is probably using more ram in the middle of the day, after a reboot your system uses alot less & slowly increases, you should uninstall unused apps & close unwanted services & maybe use Advanced Task Killer (From The Play Store)

I had tried advance task killer to kill any task that show on screen. But the result is the same, the game (Fifa12) is still laging so much. Cannot be compared with its performance when reboot.

why on earth still people hold on to Task Killers when tons of reliable articles already prove they are useless and do more harm than good? oh good god

Android booster. Frees ram, actually freezes apps not kills them, saves battery. The problem is your ram is being used up. Easy fix though!

Uninstall the task killer if you are using one and let Android manage the apps on your phone by itself.

V6 Supercharger settings ?
Hi,
First thread I read so far where people are mentioning they use V6Supercharger on XPeria Play.
I have a question :
Do you use V6 Supercharger on the stock 2.3.4 Sony-Ericsson ROM or are you applying it on a custom ROM ?
If on the stock ROM, what settings are you putting in ?
I ask before I tried to apply V6 Supercharger on my R800i under Stock SE ROM without success.
Frozen boot screen of death...
Had to recover through ClockWorkMod. Thanks ClockWorkMod !

V6 Supercharger not as good as it seems......?

Hi guys this is my first thread.:laugh:
When I first found out the V6 Supercharger script, I was very HAPPY because i thought that will be the cure to my laggy Wonder. I tried it at first and I thought everything was working well. Then I became a ROM maniac and I will switch to different ROMs about every week to try them out. Every time I flash a new rom i will install V6 back. But now, after using V6 about a month, I think V6 isn't helping at all.:crying: I felt that it made my Wonder even laggier that before. I even feel that PIMP MY ROM is better and smoother.
Any thoughts?

i think v6 script give a very boost only in 2.3 rom infact in cm9 and cm10 i try it but with negative effect....for now for me is under test the new Lazerdroid init.d (is made for good gaming) script LINK on cm10 the last version have a bug if you want to try on it you must use THIS version wher i fix the boot time problem (only change from 90 to 5 sec)

v6supercharger need to patch the ROM before you can use the script specially in CM9 and CM10.

I use v6 on cm10 PAC rom. And i feel the changes though,

*Adrenaline Engine

*Disabled CPU Rendering

Yes, I'm very sure I'm 100% supercharged, every time , every ROM.

you are right..it wont allow huge memory required apps to wrk like games maintaining the min free space!!

supercharging doesn't seem to work as well in ICS compared to GB for me

Basically it doesn't make a game run smoother. Its primary purpose is to keep your launcher locked in memory. In which indirectly unallow any external or internal program to mess with the part where launcher memory is locked at.
If you want something snappier you can use Seeders. This is confirmed snappier.
As for any tweaks and mods to make devices better, Im open to most options. But v6 is certainly something I would not invest my time in the future unless there is a major change in its operation.
:good: :good: To seeders.

Personally, I feel V6 since ICS is just too much work for too little benefit.
If I have 1GB RAM, I'll be singing a different tune, fer shure...
But, since the W has only 512MB RAM... I prefer my launcher to be killed when I'm pressed for memory, rather than whatever app I'm using crashed due to OOM...

[Q] need helping with RAM on Xperia S

I am currently on Xperia Nexus v3 and Trinity Kernel, and this gives me about 300MB free ram from the beginning. And I have used Greenify to help my low ram situation. However, Becuase I am running a lot of services in the background that I need, 300MB of ram is not enough for me and my phone lags like hell and always causing home launcher redraws etc.
So anyone can tell me how I can solve the problem? I heard AOSP ROMs gives more RAM, but then I won't be have cybershot mod along with AOSP, and camera is a big thing for me too.
Thanks guys for helping!!

In Linux, free RAM = wasted RAM
For "more RAM" it should mean "more usable RAM"
If Greenify really can't help you (it helps me a lot!), maybe you should uninstall some apps.

Ur lag isn't ram problem

Once I launch something like Brower, it closes my archives like LMT, call recorder etc, so free ram is not wasted ram in my case
And even I lock the launcher or even put in system, it stills redraw.
And I am already using custom Rom and kernels, and I believed it's already supercharged

There are a lot of ways the combat this issue. You can try simple fixes i.e uninstalling apps or closing background processes or the slightly more advanced stuff like the v6 supercharger script, u can also go to development options and limit background processes or choose the option to close app/process as soon as user leaves (forgot the actual title, but yeah u get the idea!)

v6 supercharger script only works in ICS, at least that's what is says on the page of the one who made it, if that script works in JB the one who made it should update his page from time to time.
