Tweaked CM10.1+PA3.0+AOPKmr1=ParanoidKangDroid V2.03 JB 4.2.2 ROM(03.01.13)

Tweaked CM10.1+PA3.0+AOPKmr1=ParanoidKangDroid V2.03 JB 4.2.2 ROM(03.01.13)
This really isn't ParanoidAndroid, AOKP, or CyanogenMod anymore. When you put them all together you have something totally new. With this ROM you can do interesting things like having new rows of toggles and many other things that you'll have to find on your own. However keep in mind that on some occasions different settings can cause conflicts with others considering they're not supposed to be together in the first place, so just be smart about what you do.
the customization is endless to create the L00K you like!

If you have an issue and you want to call my attention, here's what you do:
1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, go back to your stock Kernel, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.
2. Search this thread, Cyanogenmod's, ParanoidAndroid's, and AOKP's as well for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.
3. If you think the issue is important enough that we should cease our work and look into it, post your issue, BUT ...
... stay friendly, do not demand anything, do not threaten
... explain your issue as precise as you can, name the exact apps and conditions that cause trouble, help us to replicate the issue right away. If we can't there's no way we can fix it and your post will simply clutter the thread
... collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.

No I tried doing that as well however restoring data from your backup will end you up in a bootloop . In terms of reboots I have experienced none try downloading lean kernel the latest and you should be good to go!!
My ParanoidKang Android Tmo S3

I installed it myself to give it a go, but IMO, it seems to be capable of a lot, but the UI just doesn't feel as good as the PA one. I've only played around with it in Tablet UI, but a few things I've noticed is that the navigation bar buttons are too far apart and that the app switcher UI isn't as refined. It is nice having all the toggles work, though. I'll be switching back to PA once the next release comes out.

The recent task manager actually is more advanced than you think (layout is a lil off but if you play with it im sure it could be fixed) what i like about it though is that it actually identifies know much ram your using (see screenshot)Anyhow When you setup tablet mode did you set it up via pa settings or ROM control because it does make a difference

Guys here are a few screenshots of My ParanoidKang Android Tmo S3

did you wipe fully? make sure you clear cache and dalvik as well as fixing permission. if that doesn't work try reflashing again could be a bad flash .

I set it up through PAPrefs. I don't really care much for the total free RAM since I'm pretty sure we never run out of RAM lol.

FRIGGEN AWESOME! Downloading now.

Guys, for some reason my home button doesn't work anymore... any ideas why? It stopped working right after I flashed this rom, I was on PA before. I can get into recovery tho while the phone is off, so I know its not psychically broken. Any help is appreciated

◢ Compatibility ◣
This engine works on any devices with any rom, but there is a version for CM's rom and one for stock based firmwares. So, CMx.x, Lewa Os, MIUI, etc.
Install the stock version only on your stock firmware of your phone....
if your device don't have gingerbread or ICS officially, install the CM version (This also applies to the AOSP)
◢ Positive feedbacks ◣
And finally ROM works like a charm.

Sorry I did not see any updates for this thread. Yes you can just reboot your mobile to bootloader and flash a version for CM just there. Reboot the mobile and it will be updating on boot up. Do not wipe anything. Just patch and go.

I see the difference on my mobile in everyday use. I don't know about antutu score but overall see the difference, windows open very quickly without lags or delays. Camera work better and quicker. I am using Wildfire S and have a 1 GB ext4 partition on my micro sd card.

I flashed that GPS fix and now GPS locks (didn't even lock before) but it shows wrong coordinates, about 200 kilometers from my actual location. Any ideas?
(I am using Owl Project's Jellybean CyanogenMod)

[App 2.3+]Android Tweaks for Stock and Custom Rom - Jet Fast..

Hi Guys,
Im not a owner of this tweaks while searching in xda i found this, so just copy paste thing the orignal thread : here :good:, all credit goes to Theworld2020 for his great work,
[App 2.3+]Android Tweaks for Stock and Custom Rom - Jet Fast..

As it is with any other desktop or mobile operating system, the performance of your Android OS will start to diminish after you use it for some time. Mobile operating systems are supposed to be lighter and faster to keep up with our need to be on the move, yet still give us access to everything. Want to have the best of both worlds? Then, it’s time to do some housekeeping.
If you have noticed that your Android phones performance have been ‘slowing down’, particularly after you’ve been loading it up with tons of Android apps (we don’t blame you) from the Google Play store.
With just a few tweaks and changes, you’d probably be able to breathe life into your Android specifically those that have been updated to Android 2.3 and above.

[MOD] Pixel 2 (XL) Unified Kernel(s) Tuning Script (v1.1a)

Introduction:
Hello everyone!
The idea to this 'project' did blossom after having an conversation with @pkgnex about the general idea of creating something else that follows what he started with his PK's Tuning Script but with a twist, mainly as a complement to his own thread that you can find here, but also with a completely different vision and focus on what the script itself should achieve (and deliver) for kind of results for myself and for all of you personally, of course, that wants to try it out and use it as a "daily driver".
Shortly explained.
This script is created with the goal of improving both the battery life and performance of our Pixel 2 (XL) devices, and after a whole range of configurations and various set-ups, I've come up with something that, in my eyes, is worth sharing with you so that you can try it out yourself and judge on your own, with constructive feedback on what can be improved or added in future releases - if desired. My philosophy is, and will always be, this:
If something can be improved or altered in a positive way so the average user can feel and see a difference, then go for it. Non stop.
Latest releases can be found here:
Major release
Minor release
Disclaimer:
This is presented as "what if". If this modification screws up or breaks anything for you, I am not the one to be held responsible. It's a free will to try out this kind of changes/modifications/addons/tweaks, just don't blame the inventors for eventual bad results and/or screw-ups.
Note: This script is not recommended to be modified or customized by the user.
Features:
Reduced battery consumption
Enabled, and configured, Boeffla generic kernel wakelock blocker
Disabled a lot of stuff at both kernel and system level (Improves battery life and performance)
Schedtune tweaks (Improves system responsivness)
Power efficiency enhancements
Wide IO block tuning (Reduces the possibility of hiccups, lags and overhead)
Possibly other miscellaneous things I've forgotten to write down here, both big and small.
Requirements/what you need for getting this script fully working:
An unlocked bootloader
Latest Magisk
Busybox for Android NDK Magisk Module by @osm0sis
Patience
Installation/How-To use & abuse:
1) Download the attached ZIP
2) Extract the script
3) Move 01tweaks to the following location;
/sbin/.core/img/.core/service.d and give it the following permissions (0755)
4) Reboot your phone, let Android boot to the launcher and let Magisk boot service do its crucial magic (takes about 60-65 seconds before the script is fully up and running behind the scenes)
5) Enjoy!

To-Do list:
Port this project to all of my additional devices
Include kernel specific scripts for every released P2(XL) custom kernel Done
- Even for stock kernel with SafetyNet patch by @iissmart Done
Optimize and properly tune things even further for best balance between battery life, system responsivness and performance

Changelog:
v1.2a (Minor release)
- Disabled OOM_Kill_Allocating_Task for all kernels.
- Cleaned up the scripts on a couple of useless lines (results in a smaller ZIP package)
- Reverted icmp_echo_ignore_all back to stock setting (Needs more private testing before I am including it again)
- Disabled IOWait Boost in a attempt to fix the idle frequency scaling issue that some have reported about
(Public release only, it's still included & enabled in the maintainer release)
v1.2 (Major release)
- Altered a few tweaks (that should improve battery life even further along the road)
- Added a couple of networks tweaks that should improve network performance & reduce battery drain when being on a wifi connection.
- Added updated scripts for Sultan, Kiriskura and stock kernel (with SafetyNet patch)
- Added two versions into the ZIP file (Public & Maintainer release, see information below)
- Updated version numbering and configuration descriptions
- Reverted schedtune tweaks in a attempt to fix the bouncing CPU frequency scaling issues that some have experienced
Descriptions (now and for further releases);
Public release: Public release contains scripts for each Pixel 2 (XL) kernel, and which is closer to Google's (and the respective developer's) own kernel (with my own carefully selected modifications, of course, applied and running on top of that).
Maintainer release: This is the scripts that I am using on my Pixel 2. Literally. Use this one of did not have any CPU frequency scaling issues on the previous versions, or just want to use exactly what I am using as a daily driver.
v1.1b (Minor release)
Note:
- This version only adding fixes to my script, mainly for Flash Kernel and ElementalX.
- Enabled performance daemon back online again (should fix reported issues with CPU frequency scaling on LITTLE cluster)
- Lowered schedtune values (less battery drain w/o any real performance regressions + should fix how often the CPU scales to max frequency)
- Added back my wide IO block tuning script for Elementalx (this was not the cause for the CPU bouncing issue)
- Enabled OOM_Kill_Allocating_Task for ElementalX (Disabled for Flashkernel)
v1.1a (First minor release)
Note:
- This release is including an enhanced release of v1.1, suitable for Flashkernel.
- Changed some parameters for a slight performance and UI smoothness boost
- Disabled OOM_Kill_Allocating_Task (Better to let the OOM killer select a random task to kill for freeing up memory when needed
- Disabled Backlight dimmer (If you want it back, tell me and I will upload a userspecific release with it enabled & configured)
- Some additional lag reducing enhancements
v1.1 (First major release)
- Initial releases for every released custom Pixel 2 kernel.
- Added a few additional settings for further battery life, as well as, performance improvements.
- Shortened a few lines which explains what the parameters changes does.
- Packed everything into a single ZIP file with specific names for each kernel tuning script.
- See attached ZIP in the OP
v1.0 (Initial testing & feedback release)
- Initial release.
- Note: This version is only tuned for Flash kernel. Next release/update will contain more scripts, specially tuned for each one of the released kernels across the whole Pixel 2 line-up.

Short note
If you have any kind of specific wishes or suggestions on changes and/or tweaks, either kernel specific or universal across the whole released kernel line-up for Pixel 2 (XL), that the pretty soon up-coming v1.1 should include (can be something that you have read about somewhere else or it is maybe something that I've missed) - send me a personal message asap and I'll take a deep look into it and see what's possible to do and achieve.
Or leave a comment here in the thread about it, if you prefer it that way.

Update!
v1.1 First major release

Enjoy!

Update!
Note #1: I am moving all update posts and what not to my Pixel 2 XL thread instead. This one will just be used as an "notification updater" thread from now on, because jumping between and making sure both topics gets the same posts is a little bit.. timewasting.
Keep an eye on this topic from now on!
And enjoy!

This script is created with the goal of improving both battery life and performance on our Pixel 3a (XL) devices, and after a whole range of configurations and various set-ups, I've come up with something that, in my eyes, is worth sharing with all of you so that you can try it out yourself and judge on your own, with constructive feedback on what can be improved or added in future releases - if desired. My philosophy is, and will always be, this:
If something can be improved or altered in a positive way so the average user can feel and see a difference, then go for it. Non stop.
The latest release can be found here.
Disclaimer:
This is presented as "what if". If this modification screws up or breaks anything for you, I am not the one to be held responsible. It's a free will to try out this kind of changes/modifications/addons/tweaks, just don't blame the inventors for eventual bad results and/or screw-ups.
Note: This script is not recommended to be modified or customized by the user.
Features:
Reduced battery consumption
Device specific enhancements for best possible balance between battery life & performance
Enabled, and fully configured, Boeffla generic kernel wakelock blocker
Disabled a lot of useless stuff at kernel level (Improves battery life as well as performance)
CPUSet improvements & optimizations
Power efficiency enhancements
Wide IO block tuning (Reduces the possibility of hiccups, lags and overhead)
Possibly other miscellaneous things I've forgotten to write down here, both big and small.
Requirements/what you need for getting this script fully working:
An unlocked bootloader
Your own specific choice of kernel
Latest possible version of Magisk
Busybox for Android NDK Magisk Module by @osm0sis
Patience
Installation/How-To use & abuse:
1) Download the attached ZIP
2) Extract the script
3) Move the script to the following location;
/data/adb/service.d and give it the following & needed file permissions (0775)
4) Reboot your phone, let Android boot to the launcher and let Magisk boot service do its crucial magic (takes a few seconds before the scripts is fully up and running around behind the scenes)
5) Enjoy!
Note: If you still are unsure how to do for making my kernel configuration / modification work & be up and running behind the scenes, then please read @Phalanx7621 phenomenal guide here or check out @Phalanx7621 in-depth video here. The installation method is the same for all generations of released Pixels!

So glad to see you working on sargo releases as well! Really excited to try it out, and what a great time to release this as you are working on BM for Q on wahoo/taimen.

The Q exclusive release of BM for Wahoo will be domination deluxe, just wait!
:highfive:

Thank you! Instructions are great but they are confusing because theyre different. I ended up using the ones written here instead of the video or tutorial post.

These devices are OLED and have no backlight, what does that do in this case? Thx...

Reduces screen brightness a little bit (which is a good thing during the nights and what not).

I was looking through the script and it appears to mainly be kernel customizations. Instead of being an init script, isn't it possible for this to be set up as a custom settings file to be imported to one of the kernel managers, or perhaps you already have a settings file we could test?

I prefer to let it being applied straight through the service.d folder as a part of the Magisk boot service myself.
It's pretty much a lot easier for everyone that way.

Just for fun, I loaded this script on my Pixel C tablet. Remember that? Lol
It's an old janky Pixel abandoned by Google when Oreo ended. It's now on a custom Pie rom with a custom kernel so why not? The script installed and ran successfully. Proof was in the Magisk log. But not just that, this tablet now flys! No stutter scrolling, slightly slower battery drain and smoother transitions. Most importantly to me were the improvements in Chrome. Chrome would bog way down with just a few tabs open. Scrolling through articles and web pages was painful. The stutter was trerible especially compared to my Pixel 3a.
All I have say is thank you!

Haha, holy crap. That was kind of unexpected, and surprising that I actually have created such a monster to be honest.
Or wait..
Wait until v1.2 is complete - it will make both your P3a and Pixel C fly higher than a (Snap)dragon ever is able to do!
:highfive:

Awesome! And thanks!

Update!

Be aware that you have to flash the Busybox Magisk module by @osm0sis for getting the newest enhancements, that is featured / included on v1.2, up and running as intended!
Version v1.2 (Major release):
- Added a few crucial filesystem tweaks for improved performance (Credits goes to @pkgnex for this contribution. Be aware that you have to flash the Busybox Magisk module for getting those modifications up and running as fully intended)
- Fully removed all of the alternative task scheduler values / settings (they was only causing random freezes and lagspikes)
- Slightly adjusted the default stock CPUSet values for hopefully improved power efficiency as well as system responsivness
- Cleaned up the script on a few minor typos and what not
- Disabled a few minor CPU related loggers (experimental)
- Reduced suspend latency by enabling console_suspend
- Added a few tweaks for overall better network performance
- Shifted to Westwood TCP congestion algorithm per default
- Disabled the useless Adreno GPU frequency throttling tunable
- Disabled RCU expedited and 'replaced' it with RCU normal for improved real-time latency, CPU utilization and energy efficiency

You should actually try out the latest Blackened release in the post here above on both your P3a as well as on your Pixel C.
You won't regret it, I promise.

Sorry, I see very little difference on the P3a, it could just be me. Ex Kernel runs great for me. I'll give your mod some more time to test.
However, on my the 3 yr old Pixel C, it is very much improved. Impressive!
