NEW STUFF AT THE BOTTOM
I have been looking into ways to make the touchscreen more responsive because I use light touches and sometimes the sensor goes crazy from them. Hopefully we can bring some project butter to ice cream sandwich.
Do a damn nandroid backup first so that if you have issues you can roll back. Don't be a fool, cause I pity tha fool!
THERE ARE NO BATTERY ISSUES REPORTED!
Works on Acro S, Ion, P, Xperia S, U. Please test it and let me know.
Under system/usr/idc there is a file called clearpad.idc
EDIT: Novathor Users (P,U,Sola) use this file instead synaptics_rmi4_i2c.idc
Edit this file with a text editor.
Touch pressure scale you want lower. I use .0001. THIS MAY CAUSE ISSUES IN SOME ROMS. Just try it out.
Needless to say, it seems to have made a difference in the sensitivity of the screen and also the buttons on the bottom.
Remember to make a backup of the file first.
After testing I am positive it does work, though it may be hard to tell. I do not see a difference between increasing the number to 1.0 or 5.0 so i use 1.0 right now.
The reason i did this is because back in the GB Xperia S days, one of the firmwares released had tweaks to this number which were for capacitive buttons. So I hunted down the file to find and change it.
Change clearpad.idc values to these.
touch.pressure.scale= 1.0 [instead of 0.0075]
Honestly its hard to tell the difference. If you set it to 0 it messes up tough input. The number is a scale factor multiplier so in theory a higher number would be equivalent to a higher pressure. So it would be better for quick soft touches, but if you want more accurate touching a smaller number would be better. Thats about all I can say. Just try it and see which one you like the best. 1.0 is default in android sdk
touch.size.scale= 20.00 [ instead of 16.91]
touch.size.bias= 70.00 [instead of 67.65]
Thanks to Auni for helping me confirm my suspicions
Here are some extra settings that help smoothness as well.
Change in the build.prop, if the lines arent there add them.
Easy to do in system tuner
UI Tweaks
Scrolling and Response
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=(240-300) pick one
ro.max.fling_velocity=12000
ro.min.fling_velocity=8000

ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
persist.sys.ui.hw=1

New Buildprop Tweaks Dalvik Specific
We have the sufficient memory for these so why not use it.
dalvik.vm.jniopts=forcecopy
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit
dalvik.vm.checkjni=false
dalvik.gc.type=precise
dalvik.vm.verify-bytecode=false
dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=v,m=y
I am going to explain these under this. Heapstart size is the default size for an app memory usage upon start. If it needs more ram it will be allocated based on the growth limit. So if the app has 8 but needs more it initially gets more based upon the growth limit, but it will not exceed the heapsize which is the total limit for an apps memory usage. So like this HStart + HGrowth < or = HeapSize
These are optimal for our device-I may change these around as I test further
dalvik.vm.startheapsize=8m
dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=64m
dalvik.vm.heapsize=128m (if you get apps closing because you the vm size is to small change this to 256)
Disable Logs
ro.config.nocheckin=1
Better Image Quality
persist.sys.use_dithering=1 (change to 0 if you want better performance)
Ram Usage
persist.sys.purgeable_assets=1 (this allows the system to free up more memory if it needs it. It might kill apps that are memory hungry)
Video Acceleration
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
Better Battery
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=100

In theory it should increase the sensitivity because it is applying the standard amount to any touch pressure. At least this is what I have gleamed from the Android SDK. It feels more sensitive to me but I need some others to try to confirm it. Its easy to change back if it doesnt work.
definitely placebo..
tried it just now..
dont feel any difference..
Hmm it seems to work for me. Did you reboot?

I already removed it, now im looking into increasing overall touch sensitivity. Im a tweaking fiend.
Is better if you explain in this way:
Find Under "system/usr/idc" a file called "clearpad.idc"
Edit in the file:
touch.pressure.scale = 0.0074
To
touch.pressure.scale = 5.0
Save the file and reboot the system
(Don't forgot to make a backup of the file)

It really is difficult to evaluate by contact with the screen.
But in relation to the buttons below it seems that improved!!
Sorry for bad english...
Im pretty sure it does work, but I am not sure anything above 1.0 works. I know that with this touchscreen type, 1.0 is default for the sdk. I havent noticed a difference between 5.0 and 1.0, but it certainly helps either way.

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.

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.
If you haven't tried this app already, definitely give it a shot. So many features. It basically incorporates Titanium, Root Explorer, Voltage Control, SetCPU, SD Card Boost, ROM Manager, TMobile ThemeChooser (for CM7), Terminal Emulator, Ad Blocker, Rebooter, V6 Supercharger, Autokiller, Font Installer, Custom Boot Animations, Battery Icon Changer, Boot Logo Changer, and probably several other common Root apps all-in-one. You can mess with Build.prop tweaks, vm heapsize, sysctl tweaks, and more. AND it lets you Apply any changes you make on Boot.
And the best part.....ALL FREE!!!! (though there is a donate version, not sure what the extra features are - but all I mentioned above is in free version)
Let me know what you think:
ROM Toolbox Market Link
Check out Imoseyon's recommended settings/tweaks as well here.
great app
Thanks for the tip...I just got it and MAN is it amazing! I'll play around with it some more, but if it holds up...I'll buy the donate version. Really good app!
Just found this today as well. Super useful.

what other things can you set at boot in the paid version that you can't in the free version? cuz u can set governor, sd card read speed, and other things at boot for free..
possibly a result of some tweaks i just made using Rom Toolbox, I'm flying right now. Faster than ever. Here's what I changed, just in case anyone can point out if I did anything bad:
Auto memory manager
6,8,24,30,40,50 (same as Aggressive 1 settings in V6 Supercharger)
vm heap size = 32
sd boost = 3072
Min Free KBytes = 4096
Dirty Ratio = 90
Dirty Background Ratio = 70
VFS Cache Pressure = 5
Oom Kill Allocating Task - SET ON
Applied everything at boot, obviously. I did a little research on what to change these values to, and so far these values have definitely sped me up considerably.

Great so far. The improved performance is even more noticeable, however. only thing you might want to change, if you know what it is, is the oom kill allocating task setting. a lot of people seem to leave it off, but from what i understood it did, keeping it on should save more battery and just operate more efficiently (makes the killing off of tasks to regain ram less random). so far there's been no downside to having it on. also, you might want to test out putting the vfa cache pressure setting to 1. many people do that, too.

Not sure if this will help, but I have the pro version as well and was able to successfully change the battery icon. I liked having the number off to the side so since I have the ICS theme on my phone, I used that battery icon. I think it's 'Bar Ice Cream Sandwich'.

Thank you. Every one thinks it will break things. It is like saying I have a Land Rover with 4v4. Now, you're going up a hill and to run it up, you buy newer and better wheels. It still gets up, but slower. It would be a lot smarter to enable 4v4 so it can climb faster and more efficient. So GPU is supposed to run the Graphics Interface. Not the Processing Unit. Does it make sense? Of course not. Using GPU for its dedicated reason it is a way more reasonable thought. So why would you want it disabled?

Because of my above proof (proof for me)....that's why.
However, it's nice that people can have a choice. For others may work better.

Well it hasn't broken any apps for me.
First To Port MIUIv4 to T989
I'm not sure why everyone is jumping on the OP so hard.. he stated clearly in the second or third post that it Works without breaking anything .. I flashed it on my AOKP JB build with no problems and it didn't break anything like the option in development settings does... for example .. xda app loads pictures perfectly.
Maybe test it next time before flaming give it a test...

Because you're probably not using any old apps that haven't been updated for ICS. Not jumping on the OP I'm simply stating this mod isn't needed because the GPU is already rendering everything. CPU will only render old apps so if you don't have any old apps then this mod is essentially useless. You're not forcing the GPU to do something it isn't already doing.

OK.. then riddle me this.. Using the option in development settings breaks my XDA and my FRF app, meaning they wont load pictures in the app.. However this mod has not caused this side effect..
RushAOZ said:
This mod isn't needed. The whole reason GPU rendering exists in ICS/JB is for apps that were written on GB. GB written apps didn't support GPU acceleration by default. With ICS and JB apps are written with GPU rendering on by default.
Basically these settings ONLY effect old apps that haven't been updated to ICS/GB. This is why disabling CPU rendering will break some apps as experienced by some of you above. GPU rendering is supposed.to force the GPU to render old apps and while it works most of the time there are apps that you can't force and you get errors and artifacts. So many misconceptions with this setting lol. Just leave it on. Problem solved.

According to pocket now force gpu rendering is basically used to off load the graphical tasks given to the CPU in apps that aren't optimized for ICS. ICS has this option enabled by default when writing apps for it but with apps written on GB down to cupcake 1.6, gpu rendering when writing apps is off by default.
Basically, leave it on as its probably helping your CPU run older unoptimized apps more efficiently since it doesn't have to process the graphical UI for that app too.

Its also pretty hilarious that you say this and are bending it to make your self correct..
YES newer applications that are based on the newer SDK have the ability to do this Nativity regardless of what you have checked or unchecked..
BUT it is not ONLY going to be beneficial for apps that are not.. it will force ALL rendering through your GPU and leaving the computation to the CPU giving your system an edge.. while be it a small one, but never the less an edge as far as CPU processing times and Graphics quality output ..

Thanks man. Felt it right in the heart.

Ok enough arguing here, stay on topic and stop assuming that this or that will happen until you have tried the MOD. If you don't like or want to try it, stay out of the thread. Don't troll dev threads.

XDA Forum MOD
alphadog32, thanks (I did hit the Thanks button), but one needs
more info in the OP, like, how to install it, does it work with default
kernel, or only with Faux, what Rom is compatible with....and so on.
Thanks for this.
:good:
I apologize I misread/ misunderstood what the OP was saying. Since the mod is actually configuring the egl libs, this WILL NOT break your pics as force gpu in setting will. Everybody thank the OP and move this thread forward

Flashed it a few hours ago, seems pretty solid so far. At least it certainly hasn't given me any problems with games or other apps. It's almost weird seeing pictures load on the XDA app btw, because it's been a long time since I've seen them work... lol. Running it on CM9.1.
One of the sources of scrolling lag / stuttering in Stock Launcher is the scrolling cache (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43903601).
If you want it smoother, just add this one line to build.prop: persist.sys.scrollingcache=4
(1=cache always on // 2=cache on many times // 3=cache off many times // 4=cache always off). Maybe you wish to add also the following lines, after backup the original build.prop:
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
ro.min_pointer_dur=1
Finally, where is written: debug.composition.type=dyn, You could change it to:
debug.composition.type=gpu (but this last change perhaps isn't ideal for some apps, and maybe it uses more battery than the default "dyn" option). Reboot and wait 4 minutes.
Keep in mind that a butter experience is a goal very difficult to achieve. I think that one reason why many users prefer some other launchers is that stock launcher is one of the few ones that support Sony advanced (and heavy) widgets. More heavy widgets (I'm sad to admit it) means more lags.
Edit:
Sorry to say that, but I'm restoring the original stock. I've tried many, many mods in build.prop, and although I saw some improvements, they're little ones, so I'll wait for the smoother Android 4.3 and its 1080p full support (with faster redraw and OpenGl ES 3.0).
Tested and i see a little improvement.. Less lag now.. Thanks!

Hi.
video.accelerate.hw=1 supposedly enables hardware acceleration (debug.sf.hw=1 is already in our default build.prop).
ro.min_pointer_dur=1 supposedly defines the min duration between two pointer events.
debug.performance.tuning=1 and video.accelerate.hw=1 suposedly "increase overall touch responsiveness".
Quoting another thread, "dyn" allows the system to dynamically chose whether to use GPU chipset or software for graphics rendering. "gpu" forces the use of the GPU. This is OK for the launcher, but might not be the optimal setting for some apps, and may cause more graphics artifacts like we used to see in the top left-hand corner of the apps drawer." Also, "gpu" seems to increase the battery use. So, each one must decide for himself if he prefers "gpu" or "dyn".

is not placebo effect, Lspeed is an evidence-based application just needs to set it up well. But you can try to clear the doubts.

I don't need to, if there's any actual tweak there, I probably already have it.
About that second build, the phone is definitely not gonna be smother with those ridiculously short animations attempting to make the phone look faster.

I'm not a "pro" by any means and it isn't that I don't like it, in fact, it's the complete opposite. I'm a big adept of tweak packs like this and that's exactly why I'm being this skeptical. I've used lots of "tweaking" apps, scripts and similar in the past and found most of them to be just a rucksack full of placebo tricks that either do nothing or just more harm than good.
For example, is there any direct evidence of the kernel sleepers "optimization" (which I believe the only thing it does, is disable them) improve our experience by any means ?
