Improved performance with "Performance Booster" - LG Optimus 4X HD

I have LG Optimus 4X HD since 2012. It was good until I upgraded to JB 4.1.2 (official). Severe battery drain, game lags, heating etc forced me to install custom ROMs. First tried CM, better than stock but not as good as I wanted; then tried MIUI V5, much better than both stock & CM. Never tried custom kernels though. I even tried other Chinese ROMs (based on stock) to see if better. Battery, UI etc were more than satisfactory with MIUI but lags in games and sometimes hanging while opening apps were still frustrating. Then one day I saw "Performance Booster" somewhere & gave a try with free version first. It drastically changed the performance then I installed donate version which improved overall experience. As mentioned in the app it didn't improve benchmarks but improved phones performance for sure. In other words, it saved my money from buying a new phone. Now I don't need new one as I have 'Huawei Mediapad X1' for reading, games & watching videos, which I bought here in China for less than 300$ (it's 400 Euros outside China).

So what is it? I don't try to be rude, but at least you can share where we can find it or something. I know Google it's a good friend but I don't know what exactly. BTW thanks for share your experience

I think it's not allowed to post links to apps here in this forum so didn't post. You can search in play store, it's there, give a try & see yourself.

I don't think that it's forbidden to post links, as long as you don't earn money by doing so (for example adfly links). But I'm not absolutely sure.
I've also searched the app on the Play Store, couldn't find any app called "Performance Booster" though.

Im guessing hes talking about this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gejos.android.performancebooster Which i would highly recommend not using.
This is from the description:
Performance Booster will change the kernel process for managing all layers such Android Runtime in Core Libraries and Dalvik VM layers, User Libraries layer, Application Framework layer, and Applications layer.

This is gibberish, makes no sense. And thats the best description they give of what it does. All of this *developers* apps look fake and possibly/ quite likely are malicious in nature. All their apps are 86K in size

I have tested by curiosity, and my conclusion is "I haven't seen any clear effect"
So... immediately uninstalled

Got curious and decompiled the apk. Most of the stuff is license checking. Otherwise it sets a few process management properties and that's all.

Okay, so after actually playing with it I have noticed a few things have changed. Firstly, they really overhauled how you view the rating system and now you see a large overall rating with a breakdown of the votes. There is also a new (i think?) "Users Also Installed" section as well as a "Users Also Viewed" section to see related apps.
thanks. will try it soon.
Thanks for the market update made easy

Having tried it on my Nexus 5 i cant see what all the fuss is about, yeah stuff opens a little quicker but its hardly life shattering.
wtf??
im using ART on my 2012 nexus 7 without issue. sure, a few apps donr work on ART(like pandora) but the device seems like it took a dose of speed. its fast without ART, but faster with. ART isnt available on the nexus 7(2012) stock img, but it is available for the nexus 7 on aosp builds.

I know that the reason it is not on here is because of I\O wear out on the flash memory.(Crappy chip)
This device can't handle the strain of ART.
I'm just a little irritated that google won't put it in the DEVELOPER!!!! options in there stock build.

And thanks for the second link in your sig.
I dont want to load up another build though.
And geez. I would figure that google would put it in the for crying out loud developer options.
I like it completely stock.
I start from the ground up with modifying the build to my liking.
Thats why I'm a huge fan of Xposed Framework and the Arch Linux model.

Why complain here? is anyone significant going read it.?
I think an explanation is what we need. Obviously it was a technical issue, but like every technical issue, Google leaves us in the dark and leaves us to speculate. I'd also like to know why we can't get a kernal higher than 3.1 when nvidia actually makes a 3.4 kernal too.

I really don't care that much. As far as I'm concerned my nexus 7 feels more like an antique these days and art or a new Kernal isn't going to magically make it a tegra 4 or give it another gig of ram. I was just replying to the topic that's all, wasn't my creation
More or less agreeing with the op. But I think he meant click on the original link and post your complaints there, not here

4.4.2 Vs 4.2.2 is it worth the switch?

I've seen posts of several loving 4.4 and others going back to 4.2. Is it worth it? Battery life? Are there known bugs and issues?
Imo, its still very much subjective. As much as I've frequented here throughout the years,I would probably still be considered a noob. With that being said, here are my thoughts
Initially I was regretting the update. My battery life being terrible was my biggest gripe. I decided to root it only three days of having the stock 4.4 rom. Once I did that, my battery life levels returned to 4.2 levels. I'm getting about 15 hours off a single charge which is huge for me. Not sure if rooting actually made the difference but that's the only thing I changed after I initially made the switch.
Plus I love the new camera app which isn't offered for 4.2. I just wish Google incorporated a long press to kill apps feature. Seems like the only way you can get that is through a custom rom
Also, my screen rotation seems to be broken. It works on certain apps and not on others. It will work if I click on a video within flipboard, but not in my picture gallery. I can deal with it for a while but not too much longer

You may want to look into xposed framework and either wanam or gravitybox. It will give you your long press back to kill along with a while host of other features. I could never live on a stock ROM without one of those.

Honestly, no. That's really weird that it's hit or miss like that. There's a reason they pulled that update, though. I'm wondering if there's not different hardware revisions or something and 4.4.2 just works better with some than others. Only suggestion I could make is make a nandroid, do a factory reset, and see if that fixes it. If not, just restore your backup.
Did you make any other modifications or delete any system apps after rooting?

No idea how or why that might make a difference, but I made a backup of mine with Titanium Backup and I've attached an archive with the files in it. You can use that to reinstall it. I just froze all the stupid system apps on my phone. I figured it was safer that way. Anyway, let me know if that works. Hope it does.

System apps live on a different partition from your regular apps and so do their .dex files (for odexed roms, which stock usually is). So no, unless you need to push some apps (supersu? ) to the /system/ partition, there is no need to free up space. Just uninstall updates and freeze.

S6 Ram Management Discussion(Partial Fix)

Since we've been talking about this pretty extensively in a different thread I figured I would make a new thread for discussing, troubleshooting and attempting to improve the ram management issue on the S6.
Hopefully some good will come of this
So far this Is what we've got:
Should work on all variants including the edge and possible on other Samsung devices.
Thanks to @mikeyinid for finding these and @s.rapp for answering questions, and making the instructions easier to understand
And anyone else who I may have missed who helped contribute.
Prerequisites:
-A rooted device
-A root file explorer/manager app
-A backup of your original build.prop to be safe
Explanation: (From @mikeyinid )
Here is a quick rundown on how this came about, and what we actually know.
Since I purchased the S6 on release day, I've been messing with certain things, as you can see from the ROM I posted, Looper(shameless plug). Debloating Samsung apps really helped with battery life and I was pretty happy with the results. But like so many other people, I didn't understand why my S6 killed apps so aggressively. Initially I thought it might be the memory leak we all know so much about in 5.0. So, I did a little research and found the patch for that. While it did help keep the device stable over time, apps were still being killed with no prejudice. All this time I noticed really useless services running in the background, often stuff I'd never even opened. I studied LMK and started messing with those settings. After a month of trying everything I could find documented, I was ready to give up. Yesterday I was looking through the services.jar smali for the 37,875th time and realized the DHA referenced in there has to have something to do with memory management. I kept overlooking it because I hadn't seen mention of it anywhere else. I am no smali guru, as some of you know. But it was pretty obvious DHA was influencing memory management to some extent. Samsung, although leaving us in the dark on this, was kind enough to give us props to set the values for DHA. I pulled a few that seemed relevant, added them to my build.prop, and what do you know. For the first time in almost two months of tinkering, I saw an improvement in the way my device was managing memory.
The thing everyone needs to understand; I have no clue what DHA is. It overrides every aspect of Googles LMK and seems to do so in a way that makes more sense. I'm sure someone with more knowledge than myself will be able to tune this to the point the S6 will be the multi-tasking champ. There are several other props in the smali that are probably useful. I will try to get them all with their default values posted today. This has been pretty exciting for me, I spent way to much time trying to figure out the issue to not make some sort of progress. I hope you guys enjoy the tweaks, and I hope it helps sway those of you on the fence about keeping this device to stay. It's only gonna get better
Instructions:
First find your build.prop. This is located in /system. to get to /system you need to go to the root directory using a file explorer and then go to the system folder. The build.prop will be in there. You can also use and app such as build.prop tweaker but its a bit harder (imo)
In your build.prop scroll to the very bottom and paste this in:
Code:
# MultiTasking Tweaks
ro.config.dha_cached_max=15
ro.config.dha_cached_min=4
ro.config.dha_empty_max=36
ro.config.dha_empty_min=9
ro.config.dha_empty_init=36
ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=0.545
ro.config.dha_update_max_count=5
ro.config.dha_step=2
ro.config.dha_th_rate=1.4
ro.config.dha_defend_th_level=0
ro.config.64bit_lmk_enable=true
ro.config.sdha_apps_bg_max=70
ro.config.sdha_apps_bg_min=8
ro.config.dha_ils_enable=true
ro.config.dha_ils_dyna_lmk=true
ro.config.dha_ils_rate=1.5
Now you need to find and remove any duplicate build.prop lines which may cause an issue. So look through the build.prop and remove any lines that look like these(Not the ones you just added at the bottom!):
ro.config.dha_cached_max=
ro.config.dha_empty_max=
ro.config.dha_th_rate=
ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=
Finally reboot your device and report back here!
Video Tutorial (courtesy of @Thin_Bezel )
https://youtu.be/d-vaLXF0OxY
A note from @mrapp :
"The major addendum here seems to be that when using this build.prop apps like Chrome and and those calling webpages via Webview (Tinfoil for Facebook) still suck. The kernels being tested at the moment don't appear to have this issue, so if you're capable of flashing kernels I personally recommend checking out the Vindicator thread if you're on T-Mobile/W8 or UniKernel (universal) if you're on any other device. UniKernel tests may or may not be edge friendly, so always make a backup. Lots of people have gotten in to trouble today. Don't be one of them!"
Please note we are constantly experimenting with different values so these are subject to be updated rather frequently
As I was saying before, Maybe someone can try compare Zenfone 2 services.jar with the one in samsung galaxy s6.
The Asus Zenfone 2 is knowed to had a great multitasking experience, it can keep a loot of apps even in his 2GB version, and remember that Zenfone is in Android 5.0 and don't have any problem with multitasking.
I already downloaded the firmware for Zenfone and decompiled his services.jar if someone like to try something, here is attached:

Right, all of that can be controlled with init.d scripts. i set the values ridiculously high and can see that that scripts actually work. Then going the other way no matter how low I set them or even disable them, there is no difference. Still can't have more than 5 or so apps open.

Right, but what on the ROM side could be causing this kind of behavior? I see myself as quite tech savvy, but I'm woefully uninitiated in the inner workings of Android you guys are unraveling here.
Even after removing just about all of Samsungs proprietary stuff, just leaving the bare basics, we're still seeing app genocide as soon as we're multitasking.
It'd sure be awesome of the community fixes this before Samsung does...
Has Samsung acknowledge this issue and said they will fix it with the 5.1.1 update? Honestly, I feel like for the premium you pay for this phone, this is very ridiculous. Things like these can really make or break a purchase. I myself have not got the S6 solely for this reason, I cannot justify spending 600+ on a device which cannot even keep up with my 3 year old Nexus 4.
I hope they do fix it this month though. What are the chances they will though, the S6 is selling well so Samsung probably does not care about these things.

The S6 isn't selling as well as Samsung had hoped. And the memory issue is probably a large part of it. I have a S4 also, and it doesn't have any issues multi tasking on lollipop. It's shameful that a 3 year old device can managed to run just about everything I throw at it with no problem.

Samsung has acknowledged the ram issue and said they will fix it in an update. That's about as specific as they got. My guess would be 5.1.1 update though.

Sadly, Samsung has neither acknowledged the specific issue nor promised any updates. All the articles in the blogosphere regarding this (including the one from Forbes) cite a Facebook comment from a random Samsung employee giving an incredibly vague and generic response about future updates when asked a direct question about the memory issue by xda member johanbiff.
I'm baffled by the low level of journalism here.
EDIT: Typo.

Optimization android - settings Clean Master

I have a questions for optimization android without root. I use an application Clean Master. Do you use this application ? Do you use from the its functions ? What you have settings its application ?
I find these apps to be pointless. In fact, i never clear the recent apps or cache. I let android manage it for me. And believe me, your phone will fly. There's hardly any impact on battery life

I don't do anything. I don't use any app or whatever. I just use my phone as it is

Let Android care about its own optimization. It does the job pretty darn well without any need for any apps that mostly do more harm than good.
Thanks
Thanks
So applications for optimization are unnecessary. So how myself take care of the job for android ?

Go to Settings>Storage>Wait for it to Compute>Clear Cache.
Do this once a week. I do it on every saturday or when I feel my phone is laggy.
Off-topic advice:
Do not buy a phone like the Xperia Z3 Compact running on an outdated Snapdragon 801 which is not 64Bit. If possible, get a better phone running Snapdragon 805 or 808 or 810 or Samsung phones like the S6/S6 Edge.
Why? Is there a need for allocation for more than 4gigs of Ram?

I never mentioned about the "RAM". If you have no clue on what "64Bit" implies, we have nothing more to discuss.

A reason is:
6. You won’t really have a choice
And there is A LOT of SHOULD word in your texts. Should more that often doesn't mean could in real world.
What is this? Down syndrome type of discussion?

What are you talking about now? Don't you know that, you must reply with a quote when talking to someone on a thread?
I'm done discussing here. Good luck with your 32Bit devices and computers.
