set swappiness in GDX v25

hey guys,
i know it may sound like a noob question but how can i set swappiness?
i flashed 'x8EnableSwapPartition', tryed to change swappiness in this script, but still 20..
then i tryed to set swappiness via hw_config.sh: still 20..
i feel like i'm going crazy

You're on custom kernel? If you are, there's a guide here. Try searching for that if you haven't.
Please give credit where credit is due..
If you can't even search how can I help you??

sorry, but there is no working guide...
its not the first time i used swap, but it always worked... well, actually it works but just about 14-18 MB due to 20 swappiness
and yes, of course i'm running a custom kernel

Install SetXperia from the PlayStore.
With it you can control cpu, swap and loads of really great extras.. You can even set a swap file @ boot and yes, swappiness..

thanks, it works
but there has to be another way to set swappiness, like in other roms too, without an app

yeah... it worked...
after reboot: 'can't get root access'... but superuser allows root...
anyone an idea to set it via script at boot?

Push SetXperia into system apps and set permissions and owner same as others..

sysctl -w vm.swappiness=x
where x is the value in which 0<x<100

and where do i have to add this line? hw_config ?

create a new init.d script & name it to 15swappiness or anyname you want as long as there is number in front
Example:
#!/system/bin/sh
# Set swappiness to 40
sysctl -w vm.swappiness=40

How to Change governor and scheduler permanently?

is there an app or way someone can explain how to set my governor and shceduler to a specific one instead of having to always apply on boot from an app?

look in armans mod thread on the dev. forum.
there you can get a init.d script which does it for you.

U can use some of CPU administrators from google store as SetCPU, AnTuTu CPU Master etc. Don't use nofrills CPU for Omar Avelar's ROM

Got it
I found a way for ppl who dont know, or people that dont want to have set cpu or apps like those installed, you can go to the init.d folder using root explorer or any app that lets you browse root and edit the 91GovSched file and change the governor there also the scheduler.

The Gaming of our LG Optimus 4X HD

As we all know the gaming at Our Phone isnt really good some report it's Slow beacause theres only 1 core online. But there is an solution for this!
Thread with the Stuff for the terminal Is also here: ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2253921 ) But I was really lazy of doping this commands so, i were Going on the internet and found something to download! I'll put the file into the Attachments! How to install this.....
Requirements;
Root.
A Root file explorer to get into your system files...
A brain to reed this careful.
What to Do;
Extract the Zip Thats in the attachmnts.
Get it onto your phone. (internal External doesnt matter I suggest Internal)
Go to your file explorer And past the file in: System\Etc\Init.d\
And set Permissions!
Reboot.
Enjoy Gaming!

I didn't try it . But it won't work without adding the line :-
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
In the top of that script . Which tells the system to sh this test .
And you forot to mention fixin permission.
Also this needs init.d kernel support or busybox run-parts in order to run this script every reboot .
Correct me if I'm wrong
Thanks for sharing .

When you use smanager it's an app that is designed to run scripts .
But if it was in the init.d folder you must add that line to tell the kernel that this test is a script . And the kernel will use the sh binary to run it .

Thank you for sharing my Script! I don't know why you make another Thread for that!
And if you quote instructions, please quote the whole Text! You forgot the important Part! You have to set Permissions!

This Script works also without this first line! In the init.d Folder it is not needed!

Thank you for letting me know even. And I've made this one beacause your Script wasn't clear for me so i couldn't understand you know?

just for making sure, you guys do know what this script does?
it makes the GPU to run always (!!!) on max speed. this will reduce the battery life extremely.
this script should not be ran at every boot. you better only run it when you want to play games (and maybe reboot afterwards, or write a "undo" script)

@laufersteppenwolf
I think the Battery Drain is not the main Problem. It isn't higher than without that Tweak.
But i have one Question!
Is it possible for you to implement this Tweak in your kernel?
So when you selected the Gaming Governor, that this tweak is also active. And if you turn off the Gaming Governor again, the tweak is terminated.
I don't know if it's possible, so i ask you.

can i use it on rooted v20B locked bootlader? there is no init.d folder in system\etc\, should we create that folder manually?
what is the permission? thanks

"better battery" could only be caused by the first command (unlink). the others only increase the batter usage.
this tweak is (partly (the unlink)) implemented in my rom. but i'm working on unlinking in the kernel of course.
about the idea about gaming: yeah i do have something in mind, but it's gonna be a bit different just wait and see right now i'm working on OC'ing the GPU, and then we can do such changes.

Guys is it the same as http://www.android-experience.de/board/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=47 ? I dont speak german and google translate is weird. What about this, anybody tried ?
Post #5 oki its the same.

I've translated and it's same lol (I'm Dutch and it's like German.)

But anyway i cant set premission via root explorer or antything else and cant copy to /system/ folder... I have rooted phone and checked via root checker. Love this phone problems with everything, maybe reflash will help but i dont have time for that.

Isn`t this the same as using tegra overclock under GPU Clock section? It`s paid but it`t really worth it!

Ok Guys! The Werewolf alpha2 Kernel from laufersteppenwolf is much better than this Tweak! For all who use CM 10.1, flash this Kernel!
Don't forget to delete this Script if you flash the Kernel!

[Q] Zencefil 17v

I have a problem with Zencefil V17 on stock kernel. I can't overclock my CPU i tried with no frill's CPU and Antutu CPU master but maximum is only the stock 600 Mhz.
Pls help me.

Does it have the overclock module and does it load properly? As far as I know if you have stock kernel the only way to overclock is via module.
Check system/lib/modules if you have x8oc.ko. I suppose that's the file you're going to use to overclock the phone. If you don't then download it and put it there.
If you have it, open Terminal Emulator and write:
su
dmesg | grep x8oc
You should receive the output that it loaded successfully. If you get no output, the module isn't running.
If you have it and it isn't running, then open Terminal Emulator and write:
su
insmod system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko
This should run the module and allow you to switch frequencies. Start testing the frequencies with whatever CPU app you use.
When you're satisfied with the performance, add the insmod command to hw_config in system/etc and echo the clock value that suits you. You can find more information about this in the x8oc thread. Don't worry about reboots, make a backup before trying, and make sure you don't edit the hw_config file until you're sure the clock is stable.

Thank you it helped. I can now overclock

Hi where pattern settings in the framework.i want change pattern

I think the question above is to be asked in the ROM's specific thread. There are several guys in that thread that are more than willing to help you.

The magic script made by Ezet

Ezet did a fantastic scripts for iodak 8 in Anykernel post.
With 95 iodak this script the kernel have a better performance and longer battery :laugh:
With 95cvt it has only better battery life but does not change the other parametters.
I have tried it with Mokee kernel and it is also working, so probably it will be useful in other kernels!
Please try it and report.
The script is easy to use:
Extract and paste it in the folder /system/etc/init.d
Be sure the permission are at least 775
Reboot and enjoy
Special thanks to Ezet :highfive:
the script have been modified and the vibration intensity has been removed as the ROM I use has this setting included

I think this is then script for cpuquite not dure if it does anything in a kernel without that

Witch of the last kernels does not have cpuquite?
Anyway, edit the script and you will see there are other interesting tweaks that makes P880 run smooth and fast without devouring the battery

Tell me please! And can anyone make a zip, so you can install the script when you upgrade the firmware? I just do not know how to point to the updater-script, to set the system with the permissions of 775.

I am using x-plore from google play
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore&hl=en
Configure X-plore to have the maximum access to root
Move the script to init.d folder
Long tab on the script and check permissions: normally there are right :good:
if not add the missing ones.

You did not understand me. I'm not talking about that. I update the firmware CM every day. Whenever you update the "hands" to copy this file to the system and grant permission is not very convenient. I want to install a recovery, as the kernel, modem, and so on.

The battery charges to 93% NO MORE with script

Very extrange because the script is not tweaking the charging process

Not working for me.
I'm on CM 10.1.3. With Iodak 8.5
Took a peek in the scrpt, and looks harmless, with cpuquiet enabled and some network and IO buffer tweaks.
Though, battery drain has worsened a huge lot, getting to a -12% in two hours with data disabled and phone supposedly deep sleeping. (used to be <2% before, in the same conditions)
Performance wise I had no benefits at all, scoring a 16620 antutu score (it was 16660 before).
Uninstalled, but thanks all the same, worths trying, maybe it's just me, and the script is easy to install and remove.

Thanks for reporting.
In my case I use latest CM4.3.1 and it has a great improvement with iodak that is the based kernel for Ezet to do the script but also with Mokee kernel that is much more battery demanding without this script.

I wrote my last post in a hurry and forgot to mention that after installing the script I lost RIL signal, which was not happening anymore since I upgraded to CM 10.1.3 Stable.
The only way to get signal back was to reboot the phone. The battery drain can be due to phone desperately trying to get a signal. This behaviour was quite common until Sept.23rd, when I upgraded.
As I uninstalled the script, the situation was reverted to normality.

95 cvt
I have added in the first page 95cvt that only plays with the wake locks and thus give a better battery life but does not change the other parameters also from Ezet :highfive:

Tried it on zaiben rc6+iodak v8, can't feel signifant improvement on battery, best manage to get just 2hr in single full charge, the rest mostly can achieve 1hr+ battery life only.

You guys understand there isnt anything in that script that will realistically increase battery life? Ezet would have made this script because iodak would have applied these parameters at the initrd level since anykernel replaces iodaks initrd, they have to be applied at the android level.
The first command scales the clock speed up to 750mhz on touch input, the second enables cpuquiet (which should be enabled by default, im not sure why it wouldn't be.) the third makes cpuquiet use the runnable governor (I believe balanced is more orientated to battery life, but this can be changed in trickstermod for example)
The rest of it disables ipv6, sets tcp buffer sizes and modifies some permissions, i dont think Ezet would have modified this from iodak's settings, but he can correct me if im wrong

It worked also in Mokke kernels and this why I opened the post...
It improves grately the battery life when the phone is not active and that is also important!
You can also use the other script that is not tweaking the data speed.

Can u repack it for stock roms ? Is it possible?

As mentioned in first post, the script was made by Ezet to improve battery life with iodak kernel.
There are a few that report the benefits of this tweak.
The script save battery especially when you do not use the phone and improves the speed of data when you use it.
I unpack the tweak and try it with Mokee kernel and it also gave longer battery life..
I posted to see if it is the same with other kernels and ROMs.
The result is that it varies from one ROM and Kernel to another.
I am on CM ROM and Mokee or Iodak kernel and it worked really fine.
Nevertheless it seems that from December releases, I would say that the script does not make much difference.
Probably Cm team fixed the wakelocks issues but I was unable to see it in the changelog.
