Disabling autobrightness improves smoothness? - HTC One X

Hey guys,
I am running ARHD 5.2.0 and maybe it is a placebo effect but I am pretty sure that after disabling autobrightness in settings the whole launcher got more smoother. What is the most funny bit, it increased a lot my battery life (I hadn't time for a proper test). So I am not saying that it certainly works or will work for everybody, but hey - feel free to test and post your feelings about it.

Mabye your right. I have notice that some apps put the brightness on full and leave it on full .

Autokiller memory optimizer.

Hi i found an app called auto killer memory which ive been running for a while. this app has worked wonders for my wilderbeast, its on fire. so ive been tampering alot with things but this seems to have stabalised my phone loads. presets i set to lost, enabled advance mode,apply at boot,ticked all system tweaks and of course when promted enabled super user. my phone is now running sweet and battery has improved too. i dont know if this makes any sense but i have noticed a difference. whoop whoop. am i over optimistic that this works the same as the v6 super charger/juwes ram optimiser ???
Ok I've ammended my settings within this app after doing some research And in memory values I'm now running at 6/10/16/100/120/160 to keep my phone running snappppppy. To explain the values in brief...... if free memory goes below 160mb my phone starts to kill empty apps etc etc as free memory goes below next value the phone starts to kill corresponding apps. Kind of makes sense to me now. Ok I know my settings makes the phone kill more frequently but its damn snappy now,and it can lower the oom settings by long pressing the app in processes section you wish to lower and choosing lower oom. Lowering the oom basically gives the app less chance of being killed.
Personally I haven't had a low memory situation since I rooted and installed cm7, the app your talking about I have installed after reading one of your other posts about it, I presume that it would work the same way as juwes after setting the low memory values, I don't use those settings with it though as I have juwes script installed, the other tweaks seem fine but again I think I had some of them covered from editing my build.prop (still have work to do on that though) and a few other little things, I can't knock this app though as it does seem to have made my battery last a bit longer since installing yesterday, I'd personally rather change the settings myself than have yet another app doing it for me but until I figure which setting seems to be helping my battery out I'll keep it installed.
A couple of other apps which might help you keep it smooth,
Autostarts- I swear by this app its one of my best buys from the market, why use a task killer when you can just stop the app starting in the first place??
Fast reboot pro- after time apps hold memory which they don't really need, hit this and it'll quickly reboot everything (unless you tell it to leave something alone) freeing up spare ram.

Cheers for info,really happy with this app at the moment.by the sounds of things its doing similar job to other script mods,which I can't get working cos of s - off issue. Posted this for s on users benefit. Hope it helps others.
Edit my settings. Read 1st post.

The only problems I see with having higher settings are if it closes something you use regular it'll be slower to open that app, I'd rather keep them set low and have apps open quickly.

I agree but this app lets you temporary lower the oom level for apps,so I just lower oom on most important. Long click on process or service and to lower.

Does it?..........I didn't spot that nice find!!

Yep,long click app in service or process then choose to lower oom.it resets if you reboot so get your settings desired then leave by pressing home button.

Change the view from pages to mb and these are the values when it will start killing processes etc. Ie. When your memory gets to the amount your phone starts freeing up starting with the highest setting (empty apps)
Its all explained above,just that you have the pages view instead of mbs.
Quote " its healthy to have enemies, it means you've stood up for something you believe in "
ahh the pagesettings are the same as the MB ones?
i thought its two different things
thanks for the explanation!
btw. do you still use the same settings?
Yes to this day I still use this app even though I'm now s-off with the settings I posted,I will just double check and ammend if needed on 1st post.

I used to use that too and I felt some differance too but I think you have to open the program every boot. But some told me that it isn't just powerful as Supercharger so I deleted the optimiser and tried Supercharged and got a bootloop instead. I didn't get it to work but I believe that Supercharger is a better solution.

i tried supercharger and juuwes but had issues which i think were specific to me but one of the issues was bootlooping from supercharger as well as other things. im not saying one is better than the other but as you and myself had issues with one of the mods then its an alternative for others to use. i prefer this as you get to control the settings and mods yourself from the app. also this is available for s-on whilst the others i believe need s-off.

I got a boot loop from supercharger. I had to wipe my phone and start again from an RUU as all my previous backups became corrupted. Nightmare. TBH in the few days that it did work, i saw/felt no difference.
Using CM_7.1.0.1 probably wouldnt advise to use the supercharge, CM_7 minfree values are set to a pretty good level to keep things in order i think

I have tried supercharge script and does make phone smooth. Also Ive use ram manager new app and that too made phone smooth. But this app (Pro) is so far great. I tried out your settings for now to see if it suits me and had the app for an hour and the phone is very snappy and smooth (which is most important to me). I hope there is a slight battery improvement that many have said on the net but will test more and will leave feed back. A big thx m8!
no probs mate, like i said i have tried the lot and this one for me is really good and you get to be the controller lol.the only drawback i have noticed is that it takes a little longer for the phone to boot after a reboot but !!!!! im ok with that.
LMFAO looks like I didn't pay enough attention... I've used a lot of tweaks already to make my Willy faster, more snappy and stable but to be honest nothing gave it such a boost like that
BTW: are you still using the settings of the op?
Holy crap, I've read that really often here and elsewhere but it's the first it applies to myself: feels like a new phone

I see. I just have to sort things out now. Regarding the SD card read - I have it already done by sdbooster (@2048) - I'm at a point where I should make a documentation to stay on track and to avoid double tweaks lol.
I'm also very interested into scratch's build.prop lol (guess that would help to drop even more tweaks). Thx again - I've not forgotten about your tip re. AMO - just shifted it too far lol.

Adrenaline ROM 2nd Edition [BATTERY MAXED OUT WITHOUT LOSING PERFORMANCE]

First hope all the Devs dont get me wrong.. im just giving some usefull tips over here in way to make everyone happy and share my achievments
You may not belive me but it worths a shot to try it i guess, since i say im able to have my GIO running over one day and half using it a lot and by that i mean:
- around 1,000 text messages (here in portugal text messages are free for same operators)
- 1-2hrs of total voice calls
- 3g always on with syncs every hour
- Wi-Fi turned on around 4hours
- Radio and music playing around 1h
- besides some games, facebook,email...etc...etc.. apps used
So think about it... i've just realized a lot of ppl in here have some problems with battery in GIO, so im not advertising im just helping everyone!!!
So what would you need?
-Samsung GIO
-Adrenaline ROM 2nd Edition
-Internet connection
-and the most important part... patience!!
So lets take this in simple steps...
Get Adrenaline ROM 2nd Edition and then is where the tricks begin...
you'll have A2SDGUI app open it:
Just activate Apps are on SD!
Zipalign on Boot is on
then on Dalvik tab:
Dalvik Cache on SD-EXT
Dalvik JIT is on!
then Move and Rebuld!
(ths step is important cause in my point of view is what it makes the rom faster after the next steps, this way you'll improve your RAM free space what is a must have eheheh)
After that phone will restart just wait and enter A2SDGUI again but now on LowMemory tab:
Select Ultimate low memory settings and CHANGE!
(no probs found with multi tasking with that config over here... but you may lower it if you find troubles)
then A2SDGUI is done
Now... i use SetCpu because of the Profiles setting if you dont have it use NoFrills CPU and skip the profiles part
Max 480000
Min 245760
Conservative
*Set on boot
Profiles part:
*Enable
1st: Screen Off
Priority 100
Max 245
Min 245
Conservative
2nd: Battery < 30%
Priority 50
Max 320
Min 245
Conservative
Ok guys that's it you've finaly made the hardest part... you can always try to edit this configs at your own desire but this is the way i found it way smooth and with good battery! Just meant to share it!
The one and the last part is a "add on" im still testing...
an app called Battery Calibration, that basicly does the same as "Wipe battery Stats" but you avoid the entering recovery part
plus im doing it weekly every fridays and just do half of the calbration process...
Let me describe it:
Friday morning when its 100% go to app to clean battery stats... and just let it go till 0% battery when its completely dead normaly at sunday while having dinner
Hope you guys liked it and appreciate my explanations... if i made some ILLEGAL thing dont censure me just warn me and if you dont like my post dont complain or insult...
AS I SAID IM JUST TRYING TO HELP EVERYONE ;D
... besides for more explanations or doubts just ask
And dont forget to hit Thanks if this helped you for sure
Now is up to you guys to try it or not, as i said no differences in performance but big ones in battery

i made it rushing (unfortunly) i dont even know if it works for everyone since depending on ppl use of phone diferent settings must be applied
and besides that topic is from Ace, but doesnt differ too much from mine so thats nce to see
besides he talks in undervolting and havent see any values for it but is something im going to try it soon on GIO and check the results...
Just to add some more info on my post battery last for 2 days now the battery calibration is maybe working for sure lol
if anyone has tried my methods please post feedback
just to make it clear i wont modify anyones ROM just trying configs to boost battery

No wonder you are doubling the battery life, you're clocking it to half the speed!
Doesn't it affect performance though?
thanks for trying to help people.....That part i appreciate.
underclocking the phone will be good for only those that rarely use their phone for anything other than phone calls/texts....but for using browser, games etc...it will be terribly rough....
why is battery life such a concern? it doesn't matter to me if i plug it in beside my bed each night if i have to.
to each their own though
but the main things that affect battery is not the cpu speed....its the use of internet (mobile net or wifi) along with the things that occur in the background such as email and messenger app syncs that use internet.
edit: i reread this part again:

Well I find your advice good, but I clock it at 673 MHz max, it's smoother and I can do absolutely everything. But all in all, great

Disabling CPU rendering?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877183
so yeah, is it just a load of crap or does it actually work?
If you are on ICS you can make a nandroid backup and try it
I saw this today as well not sure whether to try it. Isn't it the same or similar to what we can choose in developers options to force GPU rendering? Maybe will try later when I have time as I cant complain with the speed that I'm getting from nikez jb p0.9

I am specifically wondering how will it work with gingerbread roms. I mean, it must be some kind of BS right? There's no way to force GPU rendering for UI in gingerbread, is there?
Joke of the day... classic!
Works on Mildwild 4.3. I don't have a launcher redraw anymore And it's not GPU rendering, it just removes the pathway to render on the CPU so the GPU does the graphics stuff

Basically everyone should be getting a placebo affect, i personally havent seen anyone provide evidence such as benchmarking surfaceflinger to prove the ui is smoother. The manufacturers by default select the gpu to render the ui which has a 0 1 on adreno200 and 0 0 on android thus its hw accelerated and not software accelerated
So what does that really do anyway ? Anyone notices really anything?
I don't trust benchmarks, they show incredibly inaccurate results (at least Antutu and Quadrant). Try run it twice on the same rom, one right next to another.
Well, no use from benchmark apps, but I tried it on MIUI rom with high resolution graphics settings for launcher. I definitely had lags issue with it without patch, especially with cube 3d screen transition effect. Now with it no lags at all, and I'm sure it's not a placebo.

I don't think it's useless or stupid.... either 99% are having a placebo reaction with noticeable effects.. or they are having a reaction to a noticeable difference on their equipments.. I was also skeptic that would do anything.. I can't tell you what it is, but I do notice some differences.
I would say it works - somehow.
I use it on SpazeDogs ICS ROM and it gives a subjective performance boost - by feeling i wouldnt say that the FPS increased or something like that. But it feels smoother. Would call it "Project Butter light"

[Q] Tips to make my phone fast again?

Hi,
I've got a Tegra One X running SlimBean 4.2.2 WEEKLY 5.7 and n3okernel.
So far so good but there are still some things I'm not really sure about.
First there's something very annoying compared to other phones and even to Sense One X's.
From pressing the lock button to the screen coming on it takes about 1-2 seconds (which is still quite slow but acceptable to me), but sometimes the phone just takes a little bit longer. Sometimes it takes up to 20 seconds (haven't stopped it but it's my impression).
Does anyone have an idea why this could be? Is it possible to disable the fade on animation? I don't need it. I'd rather have the screen just coming on.
And otherwise I've been playing around with Pimp My Rom Beta from the Play Store and fiddled around with some settings and the results seemed quite good to me. Can someone tell me if it's recommended to turn these settings on:
Hardware acceleration (Pimp My Kernel - Android Features)
Lock Launcher In Memory (Pimp My Kernel - Android Features)
Call Ring Delay 0 (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)
Proximity Sensor Delay 0 (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)
AMR Wideband (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)
Optimize sqlite3 Databases (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Ext4 File-Systems Tweaks (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Internal SD-Card I/O Tweaks (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Zipalign all APKs at each boot (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Battery savings (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Quick Power-On (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)
Adjust GPS config to my country
Wifi Scan Interval 180 (System Tweaks - Internet)
It doesn't have anything to do with speed but I discovered that my battery drains quite fast if I have mobile data enabled. If I disable it there's nearly any drain.
Is this normal and is there a way to make the drain a bit less extreme?
Thanks in advance!

Change kernel would probably fix screen on delay
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
This is the reason why I've chosen n3okernel. It seems to be better now but still not completely cured.
Which one would you recommend?
I've got the same problem on my Nexus 7 also.
I've flashed Faux there.
land.apfel
Oh boy, where to even start. First it's a known issue with higher end mobile processor's (like tegra 3) that fstrim is not correctly adjusted. To take care of that go to play store and download lagfix and run it, you'll probably notice an immediate difference. I would also download cache mate, clean master (has a broom icon) and also clean master pro (has a little ying/yang icon). Download all 4 of those apps and run them all and you should notice a huge difference. If your SD card space is getting low, that can also slow down your phone. Again, I would go to the playstor and download SD maid and use that to clan up your SD card. This should all make a huge difference. Like I said though I would start with the lagfix app.
I tried lag fix but it made everything worse I suppose.
So I didn't try the other tools.
My SD still has some gigabytes of space so this shouldn't be a problem.
My main problem really is the slow unlocking at the moment.
And the battery drains pretty fast too, but unlocking is really what's annoying me at the moment.
Thanks anyway!
land.apfel
You gotta remember too, the Rom your running is basically a constant beta if you're using weeklies, these issues may pop up. Might wanna try a different Rom and see if it persists.
from my Viped out one x
A few apps could help alot
Download greenify, and seeder
< Coming to you live from the planet One X >
I was running the official build 5 until yesterday but then I thought I should maybe try a newer build. Maybe it's better.
As Build 6 came out today, I've upgraded to this one.
Does Seeder really help?
I've read that it does not help at all because entropy is not really needed so often.
Is there no simple solution for faster unlocking?

Performance Improvement

Let me introduce myself first. I have been developing software for Windows for almost 20 years. I love to tweak and tinker. That is what drew me to the Android platform. With that said, here are my findings:
I own a T989. I love the phone. I have tried numerous tweaks and scripts etc out there. In the end I found some very minor tweaks that I have done manually that make a noticeable difference in performance and a battery life.
The biggest increase in performance and battery life that I had noticed was going from a stock rom to CM 10. I am currently on CM 10.2 (and eagerly awaiting a stable version of CM 11).
With that said I noticed that if I changed just a few minor things CM 10.2 runs considerably faster.
Here is what I have done:
1. Disabled ZRAM completely. I have noticed that my phone boots faster with it disabled. I noticed that multitasking was not as good with it disabled but the phone seemed much snappier.
2. Changed Min Free values. I used the Performance Control app for this. My settings are currently as follows:
Foreground Applications: 16 mb
Visible Applications 18 mb
Secondary Server: 23 mb
Hidden Applications 42 mb
Content Providers 49 mb
Empty Applications 56 mb
This seemed to help a lot with multitasking and now it multitasks fast and the phone is much snappier and less laggy. So far my phone is very stable and fast.
3. Set SD Card Read Ahead to 2048.
4. I also left KSM disabled and left Allow purging of assets disabled.
That's it. My phone is rock solid stable and fast with these settings. I also noticed that my battery lasts about 15% longer. Even better than just switching to CyanogenMod 10.2 alone.
Let me know if it works for you.
I would absolutely love to try this, but I don't understand majority of what you wrote. I'm familiar with cyan though..

How do you disable zram entirely is what I'm wondering ?
*MEGA 4.4.2*GS2 4.4.2*2SHAYNEZ*
Disabling ZRAM is CM is easy. Under the performance menu just go to Memory Management > ZRAM. Select Disable. Reboot.
Oh I'm running slimkat on my i9205 mega and downloaded the performance apk. And I'm running beanstalk on my t989
*MEGA 4.4.2*GS2 4.4.2*2SHAYNEZ*
I updated the OP with new Min Free settings. I noticed that it wasn't as stable as I thought. After using it heavily all day I updated some apps in the Play Store and the launcher hung and everything was slow until I rebooted.
I then changed it to the new values above and used it very heavily. I made sure at least 18 apps were open then reinstalled those same apps from the Play Store (I uninstalled them first). So far no problems.

Running JMT8 right now, and this has been one of the best posts I've seen on this forum. All roms I ever flashed would be snappy for the first couple days then slow to a crawl after a month. This has brought this phone back to life and prevent me from having to flash all the time. I wasn't able to do the ZRAM disable since I don't think I have that settings, but I updated the min-free settings and have seen noticable improvements. Thanks!

What does this do exactly?
Will SD Card Read Ahead 2048 not reduce the life of the SD? (and by a lot since my current ROM was 200% less.)

No. In writing a lot over time can possibly reduce the life of the SD. I don't believe that reading will.

I use ROM Toolbox to benchmark. 2048 usually yields better results overall.
