What this does is speed up your tab. Its crazy how well zepplinrox got this to work, but it makes the tablet fly. It doesnt require more battery, nor stress the hardware any. It alters and fixes the OOM groupings, lowmemorykiller and the priorites. I don't want to get into the nitty gritty, but do it and I'm sure you will be amazed!
If you do not have the init.d folder, then you need to load a custom rom. Some custom roms will have this folder. Read on page two, zepplinrox explains it more.
Here is the process to get the supercharger to work and stick on out tabs. Its all spelled out on the original post ( by zepplinrox ) , but this is the short and sweet version.
You need to be rooted and have busybox 1.18.2 or lower.
First off go here and download the script : www.mediafire.com/?w6682pwu52ty5o6
Then download this app : https://market.android.com/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager&feature=search_result
1. Then you run the script manager and find the V6 script that we first downloaded.
2. When you click on the script, the manager will open,( Make sure the run as root box is ticked under the "run" button ) just hit run in the top left of the screen.
3. Then, you have to just click in the black anywhere and the keyboard will open. Select a number 1, 2, or 3 , this is how fast the text will scroll. Being the screen is so big, select number 1. You will be fine. Hit enter on the keyboard, then lower the keyboard away.
4. You can now see a lot of options, don't get nervous. The script does it all itself. Being that we have so much ram already, the minfrees are already huge, but can be bigger . So options 1 - 7 are smaller than the stock minfrees. You can use either setting 8 or 9. I'm using the setting number 9. So to select the minfrees you want ( either number 8 or 9 ), click on the screen to bring up the keybpard, and hit the number you want ( again 8 or 9 only )!
5. Once that is done you will see the script run some info in front of you. It will say to reboot but don't yet. Type the number 17 in, and you will see it say bye etc. Ok, once it says bye, hit the back soft key in our launcher. Now navigate to this on the screen that in front of you. Keep hitting back until you get to the ''/'' of the tablet. Rom there you will click on ''system'', then click on ''etc'' and lastly on '' init.d '' . In there you will see a file called '' 99SuperCharger'' . Click on that and the script manager will open again, but you need to select certain boxes this time before hitting run. When the screen comes up hit '' run as root '' and '' run on boot ''' and hit save. Once that is done hit run ( nothing happens here, so don't expect to see anything scrolling) , then back out using the back arrow in our launcher. Then reboot your tablet, and that's it. The custom minfrees now stuck, and your supercharged!
Thanks to zepplinrox for this script!
P.s. to find out of the script stuck, reload the FIRST V6 script. Select your speed like we did, then once it is all loaded up you will see a line in there that says prior mifrees ( prior is still your current ) . Just match that up with the number you selected at first.
Thats it.
Here is the op on supercharging, from zepplinrox forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276

so what does this do exactly?
In a nutshell, its a memory manager.
It will speed up your phone, multiasking etc. Its kinda crazy how well it works, and does not require more battery life like overclocking does. What it does it rearrange the OOM groupings, lowmemorykiller and priorties.

Im getting permission denied during the last step (run as boot etc.)
Any ideas? My tab is deffo rooted as other apps that require root work fine.
Cheers!
I haven't got the init.d? What's wrong? I'm using broadcom KH7.
Here is a screen shot.
same for me, i dont get the init.d folder. I saw many permission denied lines in the script, so i run the script again with root. It doesnt help and i restart my Tab... and now i am in a bootloop. So i restore my backup, but can someone tell me what i do wrong?
Thx in advance

I also have the same problem, running stock rom.
Is root required?
Hey sorry guys, I'm out of the house. But yeah root required, I think. But not 100% sure as I have always been rooted. And as far as not seeing the init.d folder.. are you fellas all the way back to the '/' in the script manager? Go system, etc,init.d and the 99SuperCharger should be there. In sure why you can't see back that far. Are all or you guys rooted that are having issues? The ron type doesn't matter, as these folders are universal on all roms.
Also I too received some denied lines, but all is working as should. So that shouldn't be an issue.
Sent from a miui powered HTC Evo.
Yes, I am all the way back at / going to /system/etc and I could NOT find the init.d folder after running the script. I am rooted and using the Broodcomb ROM for GT-P7500. I have the same problem the other guys have. Help please!
i didnt have it either, the init.d folder, so i ran a kernel tweak from the creator of V6 scrpit and that created a init.d folder for me then i ran the script again and there it was the 99Suercharger file. So i think you can just create the folder your self, no need to run the kernel tweak, just ad new folder to system/etc called init.d that should fix it for thoose that dont have it created by the script.
And did you noticed a good speed improvment?

UPDATE v2.1
Fixes some problems related to market, email and clock package.
UPDATE:
* All base is XXLT4 now with all apps 240dpi (NO 320dpi SUPPORT!)
* Reverted dual pane systemui, crt off effect and circle mod for better stability
* Included my newly cooked HelloWorld custom OC kernel THREAD HERE
* 4 way reboot with hotboot working
* Snote2 from N7100 Note2 with much better character recognition
* Full CSC all langs. FIXES THE TRANSLATION ISSUE OF THE OLD VERSION!
* All system apps in preload partition.
* Internal SD (emmc) shows as external, and external SD as internal for big apps; HERE you have two zips created by "zylor" to revert this change (to make it like stock),
and more...
Try it, with my kernel it flies

wipe data/factory reset from recovery,
install provided ROM zip (it will automatically reboot after a successful install, first boot takes lil bit longer),
After initial setup, go to Settings --> Developer options, enable them from top right corner and tick USB debugging to enable it (it is for Titanium Backup)
Go to Settings --> Security --> tick Unknown sources
It takes two reboots for the ROM to settle down, later you can change the cpu governor and the I/O scheduler via appropriate app (like cpu adjuster, cpu master, voltage control etc.) for your taste.
I prefer noop-HYPER combination.

This means your internal sd card (emmc) will be shown as external sd and your sd card will be the internal sd i.e. the default for installed apps data (like huge games). Nothing related to swap, and in theory your data will remain as long as you do not format your cards.

No, it is only for installed apps data. For your apps there is a 2gb separate internal memory. Your rom and apps will be in your phone unless you move them to sdcard.What is done here is the dafult place for installed apps data goes to sdcard. This has an advantage of installing gps apps or games that have huge data. Like this your internal sd will not get full easily as it is the external sd for this rom.

Hello everybody. After spending hours trying to figure out what I could delete from the system to make room for Gapps on CM10, I even tried to resize partitions, I came to the conclusion that the Gapps will have to be stored elsewhere. So, I came up with a solution, by installing the apps to /data/Gapps and then symlinking the files to /system. So since there are so many people trying to get Goggle Now on CM9, I figured I would make modified Gapps zips for both CM9 and CM10.
These are complete Gapp packages, they actually free up space on the /system partition, and are completely functional. Most of the files are installed to data/Gapps, this way the devs will not have to worry about trimming the ROMs, except to fit on the partition.
I'm sure this will help a bunch of other devices that have smaller system partitions also.
Note: Facelock requires you to log in to an account, to even show up in lockscreen options.
I don't think Google should have any issues with this as I haven't changed any files that where in the zip just moved them around and modified the updater-script.
Installation for fresh install:
1. Boot to your favorite custom recovery
2. Factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache
3. Flash CM9/CM10
4. Flash these Gapps
5. Reboot
Installation for previous install:
If you are already setup , you will need to wipe the cache and reinstall the ROM to format system to remove any Gapps already installed. As long as you don't wipe data/factory reset you should be right back where you started.
1. Boot to your favorite custom recovery
2. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
3. Flash CM9/CM10
4. Flash these Gapps
5. Reboot

GNow offline for ICS still requires about 60mb. So it will depend on the ROM. But, it works with our Triumph ICS ROMs. And they should be almost identical, as far as I've seen. I use GNow offline with my PA ICS ROM, with no issues. I haven't spent much time on any of the X6 ROMs, as we can't use the newer kernel and still use our phone service.
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks, our partitions can not be repartitioned/resized, I tried everything except deleting the extended partition(4) that holds 5 - 17. That is why I made these.
This is the breakdown of the partitions on our phone:
BSydz said:
So, this is what I have found so far about the partitions on the Triumph, I can't guarantee that this is all correct, but if anybody has any input feel free to chime in.
WARNING, THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW IS SPECULATIVE AND COMES WITH NO WARRANTY. IF YOU MESS WITH THIS STUFF, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DAMAGE YOUR PHONE.
Partitions:
1 (FAT) Mobile Partition containing image folder, which is very well documented around the forums.
2 (crypt/QNX4.x) Primary Boot Loader (PBL) I believe that this is what the SOC uses to boot.
3 (crypt) Secondary Boot Loader I believe this is where the hardware layout is contained, as it changes button configuration and was key to getting back to normal after I flashed the wrong nb0. It is linked to the mobile partition, as the phone will not boot properly without the correct amss.mbn
4 (extended) Just an extended partition containing partitions 5 - 17.
5 (Boot) This is where the boot img is extracted.
6 (OnTrack DM) I think this manages and verifies integrity of partitions 13-17.
7 (ext3) This is where the system/rom is located. This is what you see in root explorer as "system", containing the build.prop and other stuff.
8 (ext3) This is the "data" folder .
9 (ext) This partition holds CDA info, with OEM apks, ringtones, and wallpapers, it seems to be mounted inside partition 10 (hidden) when the phone is on you can find the information merged into "hidden/data" using root explorer.
10 (ext3) This is the hidden partition containing boot images and CDA info. This can be found in "hidden" using root explorer.
11 (ext3) This is the cache partition.
12 (ext3) This is the Caivs, can't find too much info on this.
13-17 (unknown) I believe this is where the phone specific data is stored, including but not limited to MEID, ESN, and PRL.

Since there is no way to resize any partitions, that is why I made these. Data is the only partition that we can really use that won't require us to heavily modify the phone and be user friendly. Because not everybody who installs custom ROMs is gonna be able to do those types of modifications. This is the simplest way to fix the issue and won't impact anybody who wants to change ROMs.

I have had this posted in another forum for a while, the original tread is below. We (Triumph users) did not have camera working in ICS, and still don't on JB, So when I first released these, the optional script that installs facelock was not correct. Now that I have fixed the front camera, I got feedback that facelock was not working. While trying to fix it, I spent a few hours, never even getting the option in lockscreen settings, and finally added an acount one time so I could get some apps from google to figure out what was happening. Then I went in to the settings and it was there. So the hours I wasted was because I hadn't added an account. So face lock will not even show up in lockscreen settings until an account has been added to the phone. I think it has to do with having to have a second unlock option if facelock can't work, like low light situations.

It may work, one of the issues I had was the script was putting the optional files in system (the wrong place) and then the symlinks would overwrite the files. So this leads me to believe it may work, but I can't promise anything. If it doesn't work I can add some stuff to delete specific files in the updater-script, or you can remove the files from the ROM zip before flashing. You will want to at least wipe cache before you try these. I hate to say it, but you may have to be the tester.
Now that you guys are aware of these Gapps, you should ask your dev to remove Gapps from the ROM if possible. That would probably be the best route to go.

Sorry, as I explained above, this is not an option. Big SD cards are cheap now, and how would a couple hundred MB help anyway? If it is for swap, then it would be better to wear out your SD rather than your internal HD. Plus a good SD would be faster.
If anybody has any other questions feel free to ask.;

Thanks. If I had another dev phone I would just build one for you guys. It is a pain switching over cause we never got an nb0, I have to manually swap out the partitions to get it back. That's where I got the info about the partitions. My PA JB is built on CM10, so it would be just like any other CM port except the headphones and most everything else should work. It is older since PA went to aosp instead of CM based. Are any of your CM10 ROMs built from source or just ports? It would be nice to see some of the edits made for our phone. The only thing that's not working on ours is 3G, video/camera preview, and HDMI. But you guys use sim cards so I don't think you would have 3G issues and your kernel should fix the previews.
I'll build a PA JB ROM if you are willing to test it. I have the device files and the kernels except ck's kernel. Let me know, cause I hate releasing something I can't test first.

Thank you, I am building it right now, just working through the errors from the ICS device files. CK, I got your kernel source, so we will see how it goes. I'll start new thread when it is done building.

Firmware and kernel of our devices are compatible, I checked when flashing CM 9 from Motorola TRIUMPH, running everything except the data and the camera upside down

No need to apologize for language barriers. Do you think, you could put together a zip of the files in /lib and /bin that are for fb0? I just need the files that you put in to get it working, not all of them. It will make it easier to setup a device files for building from source. I have built the ROM and it boots, but no display, with copybit errors. I think I can get past those errors but once it fully boots, I'm sure things will have to be fixed.
Also, yes our phones are almost identical. Our amss.mbn is not compatible with the new kernel so we can't use our phone after the update. Just like you can't install the newer ROMs unless you flash the sharp nb0. I have it installed on my dev phone right now so i can get this working. I can install the nb0 and everything works perfectly except phone and 3g. It sucks, cause we are stuck.

How much, I realized you're talking about the incompatibility of your phone with our 35 kernel, 32 kernel but your compatible with our device, in MTDEV M9 worked even mobile network, except 3g that prevents replace the kernel to fix the library and enjoy the new firmware

any update on status...?
My Samsung Galaxy ACE S5830 needs the kiss of life, so as to return to the 21st century.
It has slow responses and quite often freezes and messes up with my nerves.
It currently runs on a 2.3.5 android version.
I want to root it, take a backup, increase ram by creating a partition in my new sd card and install a light custom rom (like MIUI). For this purpose, I just bought a very fast Kingston 32GB, class 10 U3, sd card with theoretical 90MBs read and 80MBs write speed. I think that will suffice.
I am a simple user and I need basic functions. My main issue is to get a faster response from the phone. I don’t play games and I am not a major fun of social media. I just want to want to use it mainly as a phone, for calls, messages, Viber, and some extra facilities like emailing, web browsing, watching some videos online (news and youtube), occasional photos, listen to music, and install a GPS program like Sygic.
I’ve already read a lot about the whole process, but as I’m doing it for the first time in my life I want to make sure that I got it right. And I have a few ambiguities.
Please advise or freely suggest if any better/easier method is available.
1. Rooting.
I decided to use Kingo Root. So, I need to download Kingo Root to my pc and connect the phone (having enabled USB debugging) and just press Root. Then check if rooting is successful with Root Checker. Then download and install SuperSU app. And I’m done.
Do I need to unlock my bootloader, too?
2. Backup.
a) Take an image of the existing ROM.
Download and install ROM Manager, flash ClockworkMod Recovery and update. Boot in to recovery by using ROM Manager or manually by pressing simultaneously UP+POWER+HOME buttons. Then go to Backup and Restore and take a backup image. Right?
b) Backup apps and messages.
I want to take just 2 backups here, my text messages and my Viber messages. Do I use Titanium or something else? My contacts are already synchronized with Google. If I use a MIUI stock rom do I need to take a backup of my contacts too?
3. Increase phone's RAM
I think now is the right time to increase the phone’s RAM. Do I need to partition it with CWM? Or I just use an app like Ram Expander? Do I do both? I mean firstly partition the sd to the desired size and then use Ram Expander? None of the above? What do you suggest? I have read some other possible solutions like using INT2EXT+ after partition. And when I download a new app how will the phone know where to store it, in phone’s RAM or in sd card?
The key factor is speed and efficiency.
I’ve also read that “Even though the Internal Storage would read 2GB (or whatever is your partition size), the apps would still use some amount of REAL INTERNAL Storage for data, hence you need at least 100MB REAL Internal Memory for every 500MB SD-EXT memory.” Is this true? And if so, since I believe the Galaxy ACE S5830 has about 150 MB RAM the most I can actually get is 750 MB RAM?
It is important to get as much RAM as possible because I’ve read that Sygic (the GPS Navigator app) needs to be installed in phone’s RAM to work properly and it is about 700MB.
4. Install Stock ROM
Finally, the time has come to install a new stock rom. I am thinking about MIUI 6. I like its interface and I’ve heard it is light and fast. Any better suggestions? Can I do it in my phone?
My problem here is this, is MIUI a fully functional stock rom, which means I just download it and flash it or is it a “port rom” which means I have to previously install some android 4.4.x base rom? I have read in some article that is needs a compatible android rom to lean on before installing. Is that so?
Here I am stuck, I can’t decide how to proceed and I need your help.
Sorry, if the post is too long.
Hi there, long time galaxy ace user and MIUI lover here.
1. For rooting my device, I just flashed a zip in recovery mode. Can't find the link to that thread.
2. Yes, backup is very important right after rooting, especially for beginners.
As for sms backup, I recommend using SMS backup and Restore, which can be downloaded from the market. I haven't used viber, so I don't know which app would be the best for backing it up, but you can try Titanium backup. For contacts, you can sync them as long as you flash a g-apps package and sign in with the same google account. To be sure, you can try exporting your contacts to your sd card and import it later on (.vcf)
3. I did not even increase my phone's ram via swap, Even with a tiny ram, Miui on top of Cm7 is pretty fast and can handle any basic task such as browsing, youtube videos, music, calling, camera, camcording and messaging with minimal stutters. (I don't play games btw)
4. If you are a simple phone user just like me, who only need some calls, sms and browsing functionality, the best bet would be to use MIUI builds based on gingerbread (CM7). I found that MIUIv4 builds (ICS and JB) are poorly optimized for our device. Also, there are currently no MIUI v5 or v6 builds for armv6 devices.
My personal recommendation is: MIUIXXX http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908444 which comes with FireKernel OC.
I use Gabreek's Miui v5 theme, which you can find it on his thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2280553 In my opinion, his v5 theme is the best, because of LOTS of app icons and the overall feel.
Also, be sure to flash a g-apps package for gingerbread after flashing the rom.
MIUI v4 snapseries build is too unresponsive for me, and missing some features like screen off animation. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1879323
MIUI v4 JB by msnnsm is also good, but consumes lots of ram http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2054460.
TL;DR: flash an miui gb rom. It is the best in terms of stability and speed.
Thanks for your prompt answer and suggestions my friend. I will follow them all.
One question please, which is the most important query for me:
After I have made all the preparations (root and have taken a backup image with CWM, messages, etc.), what is the next step?
a) I need to install and flash the phone with a CM7 first and then install and flash MIUIXXX?
or
b) I just flash MIUIXXX straight away?
Also, I am not sure I understood correctly, Gabreek's Miui v5 (which is now updated to v6) is an alternative MIUI rom or a theme? Because I have downloaded it and it is a zip file not an .mtz file.
I am sorry if these sound like very noobish questions but I want to make sure that I understand what I am doing before I actually do it.
Thanks again for your help.

It's completely fine to flash miuiXXX right away (B)
gabreek's is another MIUI rom, but bluetooth is not working in his v6 build. The theme file (mtz) is somewhere in the bottom of the post, below some useful tips and just above the credits part of his post
Thanks again for your help.
I also thought the same, but I wanted to make sure.
I have already rooted my phone and I am in the process of taking various backups.
I will try the rom you have recommended and I will revert to report.
I think I owe you as much.
Btw do you know if Themer works in MIUI? It's quite an impressive app to have.
Cheers
as far as i know, themer does not work.
Also, MIUI comes with its own theme engine, and you can download online, which is very nice.
Remember that when Applying themes, do not include lockscreen (uncheck lockscreen) . Lockscreens from the Theme app are meant for HDPI device, and you won't be able to unlock your phone if you apply them. If you accidentally get stuck on the lockscreen, press volume up and back button at the same time. It will unlock your phone.
There are a handful of themes ported to MDPI which you can use over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428940
So far, so good, I have not experienced any major problems.
2 more things to ask if you dont mind.
a. Where do I get the gapps file to flash from? Is is a specific file for our rom (MIUIXXX) or any gapps file will do?
b. Can I add an extra language, in the android keyboard or do I have to use an app for this? Or even better in the system itself. I am from Greece and I would find it very convenient in some tasks of the phone. I mean since it is essentially a MIUI rom and MIUI has the greek language in its official roms, there must be a way that this can be done.

Hi There,
To Root Your Device See The XDA's post.
Take The Backup of Current Rom Using CWM recovery or ROM Manager would do this too.
Then inorder to Increase Memory On Your Device By Partitining the SD Card.
Check My Guide over it in Galaxy Ace Development Section or General Android Dev Section.
If Helped Click Thanks
Hi,
1.
Try always to have on your sdcard a backup or a ROM that works ok.
Probe this a few times to be sure you can return anytime to the previous step.
2.
Take a notepad and make a change log with steps you made, so you can return to the previous step if something is not working ok.
3.
Try first to understand what you want to do, to be sure that you will not commit an error.
Try to learn from the mistakes of others.
It will be much easier for you.
I were searching a lot about this problem and some people saying could help link2sd so I installed it for not working for me or I dont know to use it (create link option doesnt made norhing)
I observed this after installing cyanogenmod 12.1 so I am not sure if the ROM causes it or is Fire device...
do you know any trick to solve this?

Without further elaboration Link2SD (or other app/method/tool that leverages symbolic links) is the best solution. You will need to invest time learning how to prepare the SD card; see FAQ below. Otherwise probably best to leave most apps in internal storage unless the developer explicitly states it is movable. This is a generic Lollipop limitation unrelated to device or CyanogenMod 12.x.
http://www.link2sd.info/faq
Some prefer the (unfortunately named) Apps2SD app by Vicky Bonick which offers similar functionality.
I am understanding that is needed first preparate sd and after that click on the option 'create link', and must work all fine. I am going to investigate more, thanks!
