[Q] Opinion on performance engines - LG Optimus 4X HD

I created this thread in order to know if you use any performance engine or tweaks (like V6 supercharger aka Black dog, adrenaline engine, crossbreeder,...).
If you do, you could give your opinion in how it affects your device (please also specify your android version).
If you don't, you could explain why you haven't got any performance engine.
I personally used to tweak my old phone (Galaxy Y) because it needed to be tweaked in order to be used. This summer I tried v6 supercharger on CM10.1 but I didn't notice any changes. Maybe they're useless for good phones ^_^.

i tried pure performance, noticed abit of increase in smoothness and speed but i wouldnt use it personally though, i like it stock and simple

Oh yes I used it too on my old phone and a bit on CM10.1 which make it very smooth but then the battery wouldn't last even half a day.
Now I'm using omni rom without any tweaks.

HTC Desire C - Speeding up and general optimisation

Hey there people!
Ok so the HTC Desire C seems to be a non supported device on here there are currently no ROMs for it and even the root/ulbl is not fully tested so devs with HTC experience get here to give this device what it needs!
Anyways the device runs on a 600Mhz processor running a long side 512MB RAM supporting Android 4.0.3 ICS, due to the specs the device can be a little sluggish under high operation situations so here are a few basic tips to help.
Install Zeam Launcher.
A small size launcher that is lightning fast, only thing that rivals it is the FTL launcher and looks like sense 4 launcher.
The launcher size is 338k (Google play size) very fast and minimal looking.
FTL follows the trend but size varies on ur device
Bit-Defender.
This is a tiny anti-malware suite, for full features needs payment, but for free it gives nice protection. and i use the desktop versions so yeah
if you prefer the finding ur device more so i suggest lookout due to free scream/locate and no it does not drain battery life!
Juice Defender.
I listen to music a lot when am out, my old X10 did well with an extended battery and Juice defender installed, so i say add it into the desire C, it actually saves battery and manages ur mobile data/wifi automatically.
(After root)
Install Titanium Backup.
This app is a god send, it can remove files embedded into the /system/app folder, so u can remove crappy HTC Sense launcher, also remove other bloatware and rubbish do be careful tho Rooting does void warrenty and removing apps can stop the device from working (WE NEED A RECOVERY!!)
Sysctl Config
I use this on my X10 for gaming, it provides a bit of a boost to performance not much but its there
(you must have busy box to run this, recommended to have latest superuser installed from Google play)
a scripting program - edit scripts (Advanced users/devs only)
This is what makes roms so dam fast over stock, devs have edited the files to increase VM Heaps and other stuff, if your a noob or no scripting skills dont attempt it wait for a pro to do it for you!
Try overclocking. (Advanced Users/Devs)
I dont know much about HTC kernels im a DoomKernel user for the X10, but he got the kernel another 200Mhz on a single core!
Idk if HTC have left any overclock on the kernel and i dont wanna damage my phone testing it as i got it 3 days ago, so feedback please!
Overclocking is one of the most obvious choices for speed, at the cost of battery life you can put the CPU past its standard levels, speeding up your device.
Personally i dont overclock past what doom set my kernel, if you wish to do it personally use NoFrills CPU (Free) or SetCPU (Paid) both need Root
Ok rant over! most of this stuff may not be yet possible on the device but i hope it does, its a nice little device cheap and cheerful! devs come and unlock the potential it has forget One X n S3 they got there stuff

I Will Not Be Held Responsible For Any Damages In Any Area Or Spec Of Your Device(s) You Do It Your Fault No One Elses! Nor Mine Or The Devs.

Speed
Hi,
I'm a new user and I have a question. I just rooted my phone, and flashed up Nameless rom. But it works with 600mHz. Can I involve the speed?
Overclock or something?

Nope Nope Nope ^__^, basically its no good as the Kernal is stock and doesnt permit overclocking.
You should really rename this thread... it has nothing to do with optimizing or speeding up the OS. It just tells you about a bunch of software you could search for on the market, and then says, "oh ya, and overclock."
Performance problem??
Peep my signature..
Deactivating apps which are not really needed also increases the speed, because more resources are available.
I tried that in combination with the overclock kernel and that sped up my phone especially when using apps which needs much ram and cpu-performance.

no ****, sherlock
And back we are
Lets get a few things updated shall we
_Ayhan_
Apex is a good launcher, bit bigger than Zeam but it works perfectly for me, no lag at all and supports themes!
szilike93 Nameless new ROMs have OC ability, with the correct kernels, as said in my 1st post, i would OC, i used OC on a different ROM and played games, didnt last long under bloon tower defense 5. ive just downloaded a new kernel pack from the dev of Nameless, selected a slight OC, but i shall be still setting max OC to 600Mhz but i will be changing the Governor to InteractiveX and I/O to deadline (Going on what worked best for DoomKernel)
Gamephantom
Yeah removing sense UI would be better off for the phone, but as far even the new "De-Sense" options still have baseline sense installed, until Cyanogenmod works fully we have to stick with it, although the devs have made the device smoother with sense, Cyanogenmod should take the crown
So any updates from me?
Well OC kernels are out and working can try them if you wish, New roms are around which are fast, no new "Super" apps to speak of, just a shame its only a single core 600Mhz, there are some apps im testing and shall report back, such as the Jellybean drivers, see if that wacks my battery using GPU rendering, hopefully not, all testing on Nameless 7.2 with 722Mhz Kernel but will be UC to 600Mhz. Hopefully battery life dont suck, Slimsense still best battery life personally for me
Later Guys!
You want to get a good battery life, just push a stock systemui that don't have battery percentage numbers. Images in stock only have 4-5 batt images, while in percentage it gives accurate %1 reading 100 batt images.

You should do as Xdroidie626 sais.
Download Nameles's ROM and enclosed within You will find 3 kernels. Choose from 2 that allow You to OC Your CPU and flash it.
I'm using the 806MHz Kernel and apart from the obvious,battery life dicreased,can't complain about it at all.
HTC should have released Desire C 806MHz capable in the first place.
Lucky noobs we are to have XDA website and Devs themselves to provide us with tools of salvation from "stock" misery
Btw... Little off-top...

As I mentioned above I'm using Nameless ROM and hereby wish to thank Einstein.frat for his efforts and subsequent effects.

[Q] Seeder

hey guys,
I just wanted know more about the seeder entropy generator and it's function of reducing lag .
how does it help and is it actually effective on our RAM deprived X8 ?

I'm not a developer, so I do not have any insights of how exactly this app helps our device, but from what I have gathered so far, most Android devices have a very limited random number pool from which to draw the information required to process certain types of data. I think it has something to do with encryption - the system waits until sufficient quality random data is generated in order to provide for the requirements of the apps that are running. This in turn causes lag until that amount of data is met.
What Seeder does, in essence, is simply enlarging this number pool later used for processing, eliminating the lag, and making some apps run much quicker than before. I don't know if it had a placebo effect on me, but I do think Google Maps runs much faster now that Seeder is installed. Some functions in other apps also seem more responsive.
It doesn't help the RAM you have, as far as I know. Some things just might work a bit faster. For me it was only possibly a slight improvement. For others it seemed like a completely new device, breathing in full again.
For Non-Developer you explained this good(so users can understand it,not saying that above is correct )

Well i own 2 phones, a sgs+ and a g pocket.. On the sgs+ the difference wasnt that great (there was an improvement but relatively small) but on the pocket the difference is HUGE! I mean i couldn't even play hill climb racing and now its butter smooth ) from that on I always told people to use it.. In the worst case it simply won't do anything..

Yeah, exactly. It isn't a big app and it barely does anything to clog the system. And what you pointed out about the the first phone not having much use from it, and the other having a huge difference is exactly what I first mentioned. Sometimes it doesn't do anything, and at other times the results are incredible.
Nothing short of downloading the app and testing it could prove its worth for your device. To the OP - download it and see if it does something, it might be worth your while. If not, delete it and move on.
i just detect a little improvement on my X8 running MiniCM10 , still , it works !!

Have been using seeder for over 2 months now. Have to say, It works flawlessly on gingerbread.. everything is super smooth..
crossbreader seams to have a lot more features .. Will give it a try and let you know !
guys I can confirm 100% no bias, CrossBreeder works better than the Seeder.apk
why? Simple, you flash it and you're done and it has a lot of features which is minimal and convenient for our beloved x8

yeah to elaborate, CrossBreeder gives you seeder, entropy, adblock, and alot more of awesome tweaks, plus it consumes a little amount of space in the /system directory that's why it's handy, and easy to install as you can flash it directly :good:
OP , i'll give it a try 
 @Eren Jaeger , Thanks 4 da info mate !!
no problem
Use CrossBreeder instead seeder app. CrossBreeder use haveged instead the rngd binary in the seeder app, this is better. If you want to kill all entropy related lag, use frandom. (if your kernel have frandom module, the CrossBreeder automatically use it instead haveged).
So, the numbers of lags due the entropy pool from the the worst to the best is:
- untouched android system
- seeder app
- CrossBreeder (with built-in haveged)
- CrossBreeder (with frandom module)

This sounds very appealing, I just installed CrossBreeder to give it a whirl.
As for the frandom module, how exactly do you apply it to work with CrossBreeder on X8? It's as if it suggests there should be one for each ROM, but apparently you can use Punchmod to use other versions. Which module did you use and how did you apply it?
EDIT: I really can't say if this is a placebo, but it seems that the GUI absolutely flies now. And clearing the dalvik cache on install apparently liberated ~35MB of space. By the looks of it, this works much better than Seeder. Many thanks for recommending this.

The frandom module is related to the kernel not the rom. If your kernel have this module, not need to do anything, CrossBreeder automatically use it. As I remember, now only alfs10 have frandom, but not sure, maybe the .32 kernel also support it. I not tested the punchmod method, so I can't say anything about this method.

So, I guess the X8 stock kernel doesn't have it?
Anyway, applying the module seems to be a tad too complex for me to deal with, given that there is apparently no module compiled for the 2.6.29 kernel, and besides I don't think the difference would be that stellar in the end.
However, if anyone is interested to try the Punchmod utility to apply the module compiled for other kernels, check this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150&page=233
And plow through the next five or six pages. Both the Punchmod utility and the modules can be downloaded from there.
Please do report your findings, I'm sure everyone would be interested to hear them

Of course: the stock kernel NOT have frandom module
But compiling the frandom module is not a hard work if you have linux.

Galaxy mini system optimization

I mean to reduce the consumption of RAM and speed up the application for galaxy mini. I heard about PROGUARD but this program does not want me to work (only works on jar files and not apk) In short, wants to speed up the system by an independent editions. Give me some examples. I use android 4.2.2 cm 10.1
i think odexing would help.
I can oddex rom , but what's next
Suggest you to try Seeder... it reduces lags really effectively..
Also,despite I am not sure if it does work on cm7(i think it works) you may search for V6 Supercharger. .

Problem with using CM10.1 is eventually the phone becomes very laggy and slow.. Our phone isn't very capable of handling JellyBean the way we expect it to.. Try seeder as mentioned above..
P.S : For speed and nice gaming experience (as per our Mini Standards) i really prefer CM7.2 modded with seeder, adrenaline engine or similar script along with Chainfire 3D (Actually Works very well for me!) Just felt like sharing

Oh ok.
Then could u suggest me a tweak like loopy or cosmic for XZ?
I've applied pretty much all the basic build.prop and init.d tweaks looking for something to speed up my XZ a bit more.
PS: I see all these tweaks in phone specific forums, why isn't anyone doing it for XZ
I just looked briefly through those mods and for me most of them are just placebo's. Since ICS most of the build.prop tweaks are just placebo's that will either work or not work depending how Android is compiled. And if they 'work' most of them just doesn't do anything. For instance, there was build.prop tweak in there to enable 3G or HSPA, but those are already enabled by default. This build.prop tweak will only show the difference between those speeds with a notification bar icon. Also the wifi tweaks can break a stable connection to your ap.
Just remmeber this; if a tweak is that good and stable enough, why wouldn't a developer at Sony or another company implement it in the stock rom? Do you think they want to only screw with you and your device? Making it slower on purpose? And why didn't CM include those tweaks? Because it's just a placebo. Both of them will (try) release the most stable and fast solution there is and not screw with you or your phone.

Ya i had that feeling too that's y i went through a lot of threads about these tweaks before implementing them, but i have to say few of them did work wonders and increased smoothness and battery life. Like these:
Build.prop-
pm.sleep_mode=1
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
Thats y i'm not skeptical anymore and want to squeeze out how much ever i can out of XZ. So i ask if anyone knows any good tweaks compatible with XZ?

Sorry but you're pretty much wrong on everyone of those..
Pm sleep mode hadn't worked since gingerbread
Ril is radio interface layer. That hack was supposed to enable a low power mode for radio. It never worked.
Home app was discontinued in ics
Debug the modern version is already in build prop
As is video accelerate
So they are just placebo

I've already come across those articles when i was searching around, after reading through a lot of such blogs i went ahead and decided to test the tweaks.
Placebo or whatever it may be i did see a difference and most importantly they didn't seem to cause any problems so whats the harm.
I have to mention one thing though, as i found a lot of articles against the working of build.prop tweaks i couldn't manage to find anything against init.d ones so does that mean those tweaks work ?
No. Just because they are in a different place doesn't mean they are going to work.. This is not magic... this isn't apple...
We have source code it's very easy to find out what could and couldn't work...

Let me sell you my range of magic butterfly badges, artfully curved and imbued with all manner of secrets unknown to most.
people swear they make a difference, others don't see anything, but hey they don't hurt(unless of course you stab yourself in frustration with them repeatedly, after prolonged exposure to the sheer stupidity exhibited by most of the human race).
I'm calling them plah_sae_bows.
If there is *no code* to do respond to these calls you are putting in , then they can't make any difference.
Do you know a few years ago some of us made some of these up?
Completely fictitious and people still insisted that made a difference?
ro.bollocks.enable.large =true
That one really make your device go into 'hero mode' a hitherto undocumented mode that increases speed. Saves lives and give you wings ..

Guys question, how to add that to build.prop? any threads on how to's?

Please help with decision

Hello,
Im ćhanging rom every day, bećuase:
-I stay in ĆM10 max 2-3 days, why? This rom looks really good (i mean design), but performanće is bad as hell, and this is reason why i ćhange always this rom, but im baćk only for design,
-GB is good but i don;t know whićh one is better for me
-Froyo i was using 1-3 months, bećuase have the best performance and life battery, and proćentage better (like in 4.1.2 semć overlay)
And there is my problem, how many apps now don;t have support for 2.2? Bećuase i heared "foryo is the best one for our X8, but many apps don't working, bećause froyo is too old and don;t have support for many apps" This is truth or not?
Important for me is multitask and good design.
Thanks for help!
Of course: more and more apps not running on froyo.
Use any gingerbread rom, this will give the best performance/compatibility ratio. The most app run on API level 10 (2.3.3+) and all gb rom give significant better multitasking performance than any "supersmooth" jb rom.
Anyway the choice is your...
Froyo: best performance/multitask, limited app compatibility
Gingerbread: good performance/multitask, good app compatibility (more than 90% of apps running)
ICS/JB: average performance, critical multitask, best app compatibility

Okey i only want to know about apps, so i stay in GB, Thanks for info Pilu!
But now whićh GB ćhoiće. xD
Btw Thanks!
You can choice any gb rom, the performance differences is minimal.
I can suggest only: use clean cm7 rom (minicm7 or gdx) and make your own design with themes/apps.
Try some tweaking method, but better if you NOT combine too much tweaks because mixing of different tweaks can make conflicts and can decrease the performance...
The design is relative, some member like the small, fat, dark haired women, some like the tall, slim, blondes...
(personally I hate the holo design, my wife's xperia ray have much better user interface with gb than my Z with jb...)
I have the same dilema, I've been away from these forums for a long time now since I decided to stop "ROM swapping" and stuck with GingerDX, but even GingerDX is slow when trying to do a simple google search, or any real-world scenario usage.
Actually after a (not very long) google search, I arrived to the conslusion that the vast majority of apps still require Android 2.2 MINIMUM, and those that say otherwise usually require Android 4.0 or higher anyway.
FroyoPro is only not the first option because it's very outdated in terms of stock apps and even libs/kernel support. if Anyone was to update it and make it work on nAa-05 I bet it would be the best ROM on our devices.
GB rom
i think XPeria soul engine is quite good and stable rom .. good for multi tasking and bug free..
design is also good..
and very very light wieght
using with nAa kernel 14 is a good combination.

FroyoPro should update, but anyone haven't permision for thath, unfortunately. Best experinće for me is FroyoPro (good auto brig, life battery, and simple, but a lot of my apps have suppor 2.3+), If 4.1.2 rund in our deviće like GB, my dilema will gone, but unfortunately for me 4+ is only for desing not for daily using

You're free to build up on FroyoPro as long as you make it clear that it's an update on FroyoPro. The latest FroyoPro available is from another developer other than the original already.
