Yeah you can. I'm using it. What I see is better memory management. Having 12 apps open in my recent, going from the 12 to the second or first, it doesn't reload. its there just as I left it. I didn't see this without the mod so it works.

No. It wont do anything. Supercharger script merely adjust minfree values(androids default app cleaner) when available memory reaches a certain level, android automatically closes background processes to free memory and keep things lag free.

This is actually a reverse affect caused because the minfree settings you chose were less than what the default settings were. This is not the intended result of the v6 supercharger script.
You should get a clue.
Dozens of tools tweak minfrees.
big deal.
But nothing does what supercharger does.
I think that osmosizzz must have also used the maximum overdrive multitasking that boost the hardcoded app limits.
And there's nothing else like that either.

Common people let's get along. Well I tried the mod on my last 4 phones including this one and immediately I see better memory management. The thing is that zep has included so much more in the work than just tweak min free. Yeah there are dozens of tools that tweak min frees but his does more. Right now I have 11 apps in my residents and my ram has locked at 0.93GB. That didn't happen without the mod. My ram would always hover 1.2 or 1.3 GB with 7 apps in my rescent. If I were to switch between any apps right now, they will not reload. Also something I didn't see before the mod. Now as to me having the app head raised, I just went through the script as I always did and I always had the same outcome with every phone I've tried it with. Just my 50 cents on it

Again with the insults..
The op asked about the supercharger script, not about the multitasking mod. Your original v6 supercharger script is used for devices with low memory and for people experiencing lag (it's even in your sig) our devices have an incredible amount of memory, thus never having lag. Therefore the v6 supercharger script won't really do much. Plus when I used your script on my HTC touch pro 2, all it did was adjust minfree values to sooner clean up things providing more resources. Yes it also has bulletproofing app options, but that's not what the original question was.

I just finished installing this script - it's the real deal. From what I could gather, it passively optimizes memory management by changing when different priority tasks get killed, which optimizes how much free memory you have.
For us Epic users, I found that using custom settings works the best. Since the Epic has 384 MB RAM and the scripts were designed for 256 MB phones, I chose memory values in between "aggressive" and "megaram 512mb". Apps used to have a small delay before they drew - completely gone. This is also a much more efficient and logical "task killer".
The settings I found worked the best were 6,10,30,45,60,75.
It's very noticeable, even running SyndicateROM 1.2/Genocide 2 @1.2GHz.

That would be true if the SuperCharger script was just another lowmemorykiller/minfree tweaker.

btw, it runs great on gingerbread.
In case of errors, try a lower busybox version.
As I said in the PM, it depends on which point the phone gets laggy.
If it's laggy at 50mb free ram, set slot 3 to 50 mb so that you won't have less than that.
For slots 4, 5, and 6, it really depends on how much multitasking you want or don't want.

Just a heads up... when running the powersave governor, you're forcing your CPU tonrun at the minimum. So in fact your CPU doesn't run above 384mhz. I am sure that its pretty laggy. Also the device itself will force cpu1 offline when not needed.

Based on what I have learned from reading and personal experiences, I would say that there is no "one-size-fit-all" for the best way to save battery. My wife and I have the same devices (T989), and I have both of theme tweaked different; different roms, kernels, etc.
Even though these devices are "identical", the set up I have on my device saves me lots of batter; I can go anywhere between 18 to 48 hours depending on usage and other factors. Same set up on my wife's phone wasn't as effective. However, the way I have her phone teaked, works best for her but not for me.
I would say that it really all depends on how you use your phone, settings, tweaks, widgets, sync, etc.
Please everyone enough with negativity! In my opinion using profiles for ocing and ucing in addition to juice defender is the way to go
I use OC/UV Beater on BM 5.1 ROM.

Hi guys,
I recently upgraded to CM9 FXP128 and there are some features in the Performance tab of settings, that i dont understand.
First of all what is zRam? and what are the side effects of using it?
There are also two other features (Allow purging of assets, Kernel samepage merging). SHould i use them? Are they useful? What are the side effects?
Thanks a lot
Why dont you look it up on http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/ or search around on xda, anyways never heard of it but im currently using CM7.2
there are really no side effects, unless you do something bad

Maybe some of you on custom ROMs have noticed that your second core functions strange, which would also mean terrible battery life and abnormally hot phones.
Well, this is due to something causing the cores to switch governors to "performance" upon boot. The only way to fix it is from a script or other app that controls CPU. That's not all. The second core seems to not function according to specs. It will either always stay on, or always stay off. mpdecision doesn't appear to work properly.
Well, I've narrowed this down to "samsungani" and "samsungpowersound" which are located in /system/bin/. Removing these at an attempt to get custom boot animations working and to get rid of boot sounds are what's causing the funky core behaviors.
The fix is to restore the two files and chmod them 755 as well as chgrp to 2000 to get them back to the way they're supposed to be.
I'm not sure if any of this effects custom kernels but it sure does on the Stock kernel.
The file I uploaded will restore the samsungani and samsungpowersoundplay files to /system/bin/ as well as copy over silent PowerOn and PowerOff sounds.
Wow that's awesome that you figured this out. Great job!!

Well, it really only will matter if your current ROM includes a different boot animation and/or removes those files. In any other case, it will do nothing.

OK thanks again love the rom I know you get asked this a lot but if you ever need a tester let me know I use to test for mijuah but my son stole my s2 so I'm bored now lol.
Zip applied, and I had to duplicate the process to confirm what I thought I saw:
Been running blazer 1.6 for a few days now and I honestly don't know what (if any) boot animations are built into that rom, but in the spirit of testing (and flash addiction) I used this zip.
This is what I noticed (and duplicated to confirm)--
Chainfire's live dmesg/logcat (I used paid versions) were replaced by this zip file.
When I "reinstalled" the first attempt found no boot animation files. I attempted install again and this time it did indeed "repair" the logcat/dmesg boot screen.
This is my first dual core so I have no experience in these apps working or not on such phones.
If this is wide spread then perhaps chainfire might want to look into an update to his code, if this is specific to the sgs3 then maybe we have deeper issues to delve into.

I had PGM on my galaxy nexus.... after getting used to it, it really really hard to live without this feature (especially after a few failed hardware buttons on phones in the past). Alongside the on-screen buttons, my phone required no hardware button pressing.
This is the one feature I will go to the ends of the earth looking for, and unfortunately I have yet to find anything like this for the S4. The reason this is such an obscure feature is because it requires low level kernel+hardware development, and from what I have heard from ponery and other devs, getting the kernel and screen to listen for specific screen input /w a corresponding kernel module (while keeping battery drain at an acceptable level) requires very very specific hardware and boatloads of very extensive, tricky, and sensitive development.
I wish someone would make something like this for the S4 (if ponery did I would jump for joy), and I would pay good money for it too.
It would have been really awesome if samsung would have included this type of feature alongside airview (and made sure they were both really really polished.... like an open airview api out-of-the-box), instead of the dumpster full of gimmicky garbage they did include.

I don't see how it's so serious. It's just tapping the display twice to wake the device. How complicated is it?

I don't mean to bother but I asked a few months ago how you got the app working on your s4. You said you downloaded something else to do it? I've been looking everywhere for this.
I know I would need a kernel as well so what kernel did you get with it?

Don't think I ever said I got it working. The description at the time said it was compatible (which it doesn't now) but after installing the app I needed to install some extra module which is only for nexus which made it useless for me.
Guys newbie here... found someting about knock on feature...
Its on ExperimentalX kernal but its not for our device hope so it can be ported buy developers.
