build.prop Recommendations

What are some recommended build.prop edits that will help with the Droid 3?
increase the davlik heap?
putting the home launcher into memory?
forcing the GUI to be run through the GPU?

I tried editing mine with some info gathered from other phone's edits, and I ended up with a soft brick. Restored with CWM, but I sadly can't say what killed it. I tried increasing the heap and putting the home launcher into memory, but I also did a bunch other things.

sad that noone is posting recommendations
it would be nice if someone could find that function that disables gsm signal when you get no service for a while... maby its not in build.prop... but anyway it keeps happening.. when my phone looses connection it connect back only after reboot..
and i have done the fix that vas here in other thread about disabling verizon option in it!
and maby there is some way to disable some verizone apps to be lunched at startup becouse some of them are allways runing on background!!
so please give some recomendations, i think im not the onlyone who could use them

I don't play with build.prop.

That's absolute shenanigans. ^
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=120-150
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 180-300
dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m
# persist.mot.powerup.tone=/system/media/bootup.ogg
---or your file of choice mapped here (this is the only one I haven't done, since I like a silent boot, but I can't see it buggering anything up, it's an audio file)
mot.proximity.delay=150
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=0
re.telephony.call_ring.delay=1000
And lastly...Camera Tweaks
Except for the one I noted as not having have tried, NONE of the above will brick you.

Just install Autostarts from the market. Its a paid app but well worth it to disable apps not only from start, but from other trigger points like data connection turning on, location changes,etc.

You should check our chevys build prop and the other ROMs build prop. You'll get plenty of ideas. I'll have to post back the links, there are one or two threads on this related topic on the dev section.

[Q] Disabling Fast Dormancy / DataTracker-FD in P970

Hi!
I wonder if there is a way to completely disable FastDormancy in LG P970.
The problem, is that this wakelock (DataTracker-FD) keeps my phone always awake, which results in %50 battery drain in 4 hours (without using phone at all). So that I have to take 2 extra batteries with me wherever I go.
I've tried: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185241
hidden menu 3845#*970# -> Modem setting -> PDP Setting -> [0] Set Fast Dormancy
But nothing happens when i click [0] Set Fast Dormancy (it just briefly highlights the menu item and that's it)
fixing flex.db
But I can't find this file. Only flex.xml which is almost empty
Set APN / disable data connection
I can't use it, because I need to have a data connection turned on always
Killing the Dialer process
It helps for some time (few hours), but eventually the wakelock reappears again and drains the battery again
I have v20b android 2.3.4 (root)
Any ideas appreciated

I think this might help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185241
Search for more
And this is a QUESTION, so post it in Q&A next time, please.

Yeah, actually that's the only usable thread u and i pointed out! but none of the methods mentioned there worked specifically for p970

In systme/etc/settings.xml find this line.. and edit with a file explorer that has R/W capability like Root Explorer.
This are the settings of your phone upon boot. For example how loud are the tones, screen brightness and everything your phone uses. USB debug on or off etc. It will be somewhere below the xml.
<parameter db="secure" name="fast_dormancy_variant">10</parameter>

Try setting it to "0". I just don't know if it's the same or what are the effects. Rebooting will retain the changes. If any complications, just revert back to "10" or what ever number it was before. It will also save the previous as .bak.

ehh.. tried the settings.xml thing, but still no luck :-/
killing dialer every now and then seems to be the only "working" solution so far

I have the same problem!
are there any developments regarding this problem?? I also can't figure out the problem!

Hi, your solution didn't worked on v20s, it's not the same database structure for telephony.db, but, something worked between adding the requested line to build.prop ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0 and editing flex.db in /data/data/com.lge.providers.flex/ and setting datacom_fastdormancy from 10 to 0 for my operator... at least for now...
Fingers crossed!

MLT apk disable or remove - LG is watching you

LG seems to have included a snooper app "MLT" which per default is enabled, and probably serves purpose to help LG remote support, but it tries to track all your activity and logs GPS position together with the details gathered, and that includes calls, apps starting, removing etc...
all data is collected and placed on /mpt partition, it seems not to be per reboot, but actually kept during flash and upgrades.
i sugges you disable this(maybe already is on 4.0.3) MLT.apk + MLT.odex and reboot or disable in hidden menu (3845#*880# -> MLT -> disable)
why track all your moves on the phone, and basically make it slow as well?
btw, this is also on 4.0.3, and not only on latest 4.1.2 stock.

AW: MLT apk disable or remove - LG is watching you
Wow thanks for the hint...
So you think they spot unlocked bootloaders with that or even root?
...sent with my LG Optimus 4X HD...

Thank you! So theoretically, disabling this should help performance, right?

no, i just fell over the /mpt partition and saw all the data together with the IMEI in serial file, but it does not change anything.
it can be something enables it or something else.

thx for Info Dex.
Now i need to install new sniffer to find so bad tools too.
regards ice

Maybe you can view these activities better in logcat or another debug? It probably wont show exactly what data is going out to LG, but it still may be interesting to see how active the app is.

ok,
looking more into the MPT_MainData.db , it is only tracking data from 4.1.2 , so even if app is on 4.0.3, the /mpt must be cleared when you flash a new kdz that is only good news but still little strange.

Ok i disabled MLT and my phone now is very fast and smooth. I don't have any lag in launcher. So this is very strange...

I couldnt go to hidden menu and disable it - unless I already did while I was cleaning out bloatware.

i believe so, i found it on the list, when i searched xda for hits , so i could check name before i wrote something bad or incorrect .

yes sir.
BTW, i use autostart & disable service to disable a lot of rubbish.
and now the ram is @ 450 free

sounds like its just a tracker to prevent stolen dev phones and spot/track possible leaks during development.
atleast that would make sense.
i doubt this will be o in the final version i think its just for internal use.

Doesn't seem to exist on CustoNexus

correct, as this custom rom is based on OneX release, and primarily CM10 related, no malware or tracking except their debugging thing.

My phone just got faster after I disable this MLT stuff.. I cant beleieve this MLT slows my phone down. Smh

How did you manage to get 450mb free? I disabled a lot of things including the MLT but still get only about 270mb free RAM.
Using One Power Guard I optimized the CPU to work at 51MHz to 1000Mhz.. even after disabling several services using ROM Manager, the CPU never goes into Deep Sleep or even the 51MHz mark. And the battery life now has degraded pretty bad. 7 - 8 hr max which include just 1hr of gaming and 30 min of calls and SMS.

OFFTOPIC:
I've got 550MB of free RAM. And haven't tweaked nearly anything despite disabling MLT. Take a look at all your installed apps. There has to be one preventing the system to go into deep sleep.

Low RAM available in Honor Play

Hi guys, my EMUI version is 8.2 and I am concerned about ram management of honor play.
Most of apps reload when launch them from recent apps.
Even youtube also reloads that too playing video if i switch to some another app.
Available ram in my phone is around 1Gb only (out of 4Gb). Earlier I used redmi note 3 3Gb variant and in that 1.5Gb ram was available.
Do you guys are also facing the same problem or is there any setting for ram management.
P.S. This is a new unit and I can still replace it till tomorrow.

Nope. Somehow mine always keep around 2gb free also if it dips below 800mb, just restart the phone.
Or goto phone manager app management and change automatic control to manual and change the auto run to FALSE

Restarting the phone helped. Thanks a lot. Don't know why I did not restarted phone.
But after 6-7 hrs available ram drops to 1.2Gb.

Yes, restarting your phone only works if you're happy constantly restarting your phone.

That's a workaround, not a solution.

Have you added apps to the "ignore battery optimization"? I also lock apps that I want to run in the background too for faster load times.... Works perfectly for me
I'm on the official Emui 8.2
For ignore battery optimization options follow this path
Settings, apps and notifications, apps, then choose the icon at the bottom "settings", special access, ignore battery optimization.
Change the tab to all apps and then click an app and add to ignore battery optimization.

Don't we have a phone manager app for stuff like that? Or does the phone manager only help with the storage?

How to prevent ColorOS[CN] setting from changing back?

I realized that when I change some settings in ColorOS it magically changes back without telling you.
I installed Google Assistant from the app store. It required Google Assistance to be selected as the default Assistive App [default value : none]. After I changed that.. it changes back at some random amount of time.. I'm not able to work out how long it takes for it revert the setting.. but sure enough it will.
Another App is LastPass.. It requires me to Enable Autofill from accessbility Options.. Once again I turn it ON.. after some random amount of time it will revert it back to "Off"...
What can be done to stop this from happening?

Happens to some degree in the EU model too,noticed the lastpass app autofill stops amongst other things. Am thinkin maybe it's the Phone Manager app which I think kills battery intensive apps if you allow it

I'll give this a try.. I've gone into phone manager -> startup manager and allowed the two apps.. the two apps wasn't there even though I have allowed the app to run in the background.
We will see tomorrow.

Nope that didn't work.. anyone else have other suggestions? Anything to remove delete or hack?

Man,I don't know what the issue is but read on the Realme community that the OS just reverts to defaults to ensure proper functioning of the phone,
ColorOS is certainly the biggest downside to this phone. Am missing OxygenOS on my 6T a lot though I'm Gona stick with the x2 pro for now,
Bought the phone for its flagship specs and storage and and to get away from the hassle of messing around with the phones setting's with tricks and mods.
Have decided to just accept colourOS for what it us.,though there is some battery drain,it's not awful and I'm still getting notifications.
Will just have to hope things improve with updates and the next big update should improve things a lot,mind you,it's a long way to April ?

Not notice anything revert on mine... This sounds like the same issue I had on the mi 9... I can't remember how I solved it but it was something to do with the auto security checks the phone manager app did... After a set amount of time the phone manager would perform certain checks and reset certain options throughout the operating system.

Sounds about right,Have feeling the phone manager app has something to do with it.It does not like the developer options

Ok.. I found my work around for now.
I'm using tasker every 10 mins to change the accessibility options for all the apps that need it and set the google assistant to default.
Working ok so far for the last day.

Seems like more trouble than its worth,the only settings I'm having trouble keeping are the animation ones, but honestly it's not bothering me anymore. Have animations setting set to fast in the stock launcher setting and it's not so bad.
Didn't think lastpass was working but it has been appearing to autofill login to sites in a chrome

Did anyone found a solution? Im having this issues too...
