V6 Supercharger script works - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

I successfully ran V6 SUPERCHARGER using the terminal emulator in Cm7. Had to switch to Hackers keyboard to type the command sh V6* which starts the script from the root of sd card. I used the first v6 script posted and was very conservative to avoid any boot loops. i am benchmarking system and running some favorite apps to see if it is a winner or not. So far system booting faster and seems real snappy! There is a CM7 and CM9 version but I would DEFINITELY have a backup sd card ready and know your way in ADB in case something goes wrong. Remember to eject/ reinsert your card if you cant access your sd.

No problems
So far no problems. Gui is faster, internet is faster, games and apps load faster. Very good hack.

Videos
BE WARNED! it seems the sacrifice you make for a faster deaktop is slightly broken Ducati hardware acceleration. I am not sure if it is just an issue with .flv,s or affects other media types. The Youtube videos sometimes refuse ro play in HD but will play in HD if you dwselect HD with an occasional hickup. Not sure if it is the way this rom accesses Ducati and the way this script modifies memory management.

Interesting. Ill take a look at the source and see if theres any special tweaks to be made.

Thank you. It would br a good find for our community and would put us on par with the other Xda developer sites.

Moved To General​
As the OP contains no development, this should be in the General section​

It uses fairly moderate values for the tweaks, I can verify that not only does it not brick the tablet, but the tweaks it can apply actually work. I've noticed about a 20% improvement in memory management, along with i/o improvements (which is weird, though I assume it's due to the memory tweaks and overall improved system response).
On the flip side, it has by far the most annoying, frustrating attempt at a text UI that I've ever encountered, using literally about a hundred separate sleep functions. Still, cool find.

Thanks. I have read where the Devs are just incorporating the memory tweaks into the rom directly.

Is Autokiller Memory Optimizer still relevent?

Is Autokiller Memory Optimizer still relevent? I first learned of it in KaosFroyo v36? I think?
I realize it is not a "killer" the same way most task killers are, and it just adjust the limits of the actual systems ram limits. I am familiar with the way linux handles memory but with newer roms and newer versions of cyanogen coming has anyone noticed a difference with or without it? I will freeze it tonight and see if I notice anything.
I quit using it when I switched to Gingerbread. Don't need it. With Froyo I felt it was necessary.
Sent from my GSBv1.9 ERIS using XDA Premium App
I still use it. Why? Because even with gingerbread there's an obvious difference in available memory with and without it. My memory improves on average 20mb with it vs without it (just random checking it). now I realize that can hurt or help (having something already running in the background serves its purpose for quick access. too much stuff running you used and are NOT going to access anytime soon hurts). overall I havent noticed it hurting performance/speed at all and I'd rather have the free space available for operating apps so I use it. less things running even in background should at least theorically help battery life a little. I dont think its NEEDED by any means but the way I bang app after app it works for me.
I still use it because I've used it since KaosFroyo, and so on the move to GSB I couldn't help but continue to use it. Sometimes it really does help, and sometimes it doesn't make a difference.
I've uninstalled it two days ago. Haven't noticed a difference at all. I've been using GingerTazz12. cm7/2.3 has better built in memory management?

2.2 definitely has better mem management over 2.1, and 2.3 has even better over 2.2.
Memory Managers are a placebo to me. Why not just let your phone manage things on its own? It's not based on Windows where RAM is key in performance, it just simply knocks out the things you haven't used in a while to give it more room for the next program.
It will really effect your "multitasking" ie switching between apps, because there will be memory left over, just not for the app you just finished using

The thing is, some of those background apps still running could be poorly optimized and still take CPU and not just RAM. You could be using an app and be good on memory, but you could have some background app taking resources and CPU cycles and possibly slowing your phone down in that manner, as well as draining your battery a bit more than usual.
i havent used it at all and im running gtood gsb2.0
I haven't used any memory optimizer/task killer since the first time I tried xtrSENSE, probably last July. zach.xtr includes scripts for GScript to change Android's built in memory manager settings, although I've since stopped changing any ROMs defaults as far as that's concerned.
I decided to not install any mem managers, autokiller & startup auditor, when I moved to GSB from xtrROM. At this point I feel I don't need autokiller at all. Startup Auditor maybe, but the few that do startup on their own are not causing issues. To me AK has become an option, NOT a necessity!

I am using it now as well..But it's not so snappy like a regular netbook..is it possible to make it more speedy ? or is it because of my Slow SDCARD ? Class 10 makes any difference ?
Hi.
I use Ubuntop 1.1.0 too, and with Nottachtrix and Faux kernel, it's fast enough for normal use.
Even faster with Faux Kernel 1.45GHz, but high battery drain
If you want it any faster, you'll have to overclock your phone. Faux's 1.45 makes it run pretty good, but in turn drains the battery faster. Remember, this is still a phone.
Definitely Ubuntop!
I have attached a screen of the multitasking i once had on my lapdock. Ubuntop is a fantastic mod, it allows use of synaptic and other linux applications without the need to install all of the various mods to do it. It also removes some of the bloat from the webtop, which makes it run faster.
Another notable feature is the ability to mount an NTFS formatted drive, I have connected my 250gb external drive with an NTFS and a FAT partition on it and it could see and read/write both partitions.
It also has two different themes, UbuntopLX and Webtop+
And an install script for the basic programs that most people want. It is a huge improvement over the stock experience.

Is it possible to underclock the Phone when using it Normally (Undocked from lapock) & then overclock it manually when docking to the lapdock.. & what are the constrains ? I mean my Atrix heats up very quickly on stock kernel.. will it be a problem to run the webtop @1.45 GHZ ? esp. the heat generation ?

I use system tuner to limit memory usage, auto kill set to aggressive. It occasionally still tells me im low on memory, but you just have to close apps when this happens.

HOw is it that you managed to install anything at all on the Ubuntop mod? All it ever did was throw errors at me about... not having GNOME or something, about missing keys (which I tried to remedy) and in the end, the WiFi on the webtop commit suicide before I could fix anything. Now, the WiFi works in mobile mode (even in the mobile window it works) but FireFox refuses to connect. So now I can't install anything from online. And additionally, it constantly complains about not having permission to DO anything, when I KNOW I'm rooted. Super user (su, as it is named) is in /bin and everything. What gives?
If it helps, I'm running Nottachtrix 1.3.1 and used webtop2sd 1.1.0
Because, right now, your phone sounds preeetty sweet. A functional webtop would be the perfect thing for school work.

[Q] Would you recommend using swap2cache??

Hello fellows, anyone is using swap2cache script to improve your SK17 perfomance. Would you recommend using it?
Thanks in advance.
Considered all that's out there about how andorid manages ram i have never really seen the point.
Android will open processes and activities for as much free ram as it has, and when you need to run something it just closes all useless activities and cached programs if necessary. Enebling swap2cache will just give your device more space to occupy with "junk" which will be sitting there eating up on battery life and performance...In my personal experience i find it to be more useful on older devices which had limited ram, 512 is enough to run most stuf out there (there's a discussion on android genral about makin 2gb which concludes that for now it's quite useless..) plus it's only adding 64mb extra...it's not going to be that big a change.
I tested it personally, and my rom (also using miui) without swap2cache usually has 400-420mb of used space before doing a system dump, with swap 2cache enabled it was always full at max...
Not to mention sdcard life.... constant swapping on it, reduces lifespan obviously.
Also it's very much slower than system memory.
Sent from my ST15i
Hi Guys, thanks for the info I will try for myself and report it back.
Just to clarify swap2cache works in the internal partition /cache not in /sdcard so it is supposed to be faster.
Yeah you are right it works in the system partition but you may want to take a look at swap2zram as it works in the ram itself! Faster than system memory!
hit thanks if I've helped!

LoL! my bad. I wasn't even reading right. I was automatically thinkin' it was swap2sd -.-
EDiT:
Xkernel uses ZRAM by default...
Here is my experience, apparently this extra 64 mb only make a difference when you play heavy games like Asphalt 7, N64 emulator, Nova, etc.
Because without swap2cache when I played this games with the sixaxis controller app this one always closes in the middle of the game. However with swap2cache enabled I can play this games with the sixaxis app without problem :laugh:
Hope you find this information useful, if anyone is interested I'm attaching the script:
- Uncompress it and copy it in /etc/init.d/
- Set 777 permissions to script.
- reboot.

I've been trying this patch (manually, not the complete script), but I have found this actually slows down the folio. There is a reason why flash-based devices don't have a swap. When writing large blocks to swap, the system will stutter heavily. The slow flash disk of the folio will not help in this. My test shows it is actually slowing down quite a bit.
Even with the low RAM of the folio, it is still faster to just start/restart an app than to swap it away in a swapfile (resulting in 1secs of stutter) and then getting it back anyway from disk.
ZRAM is something similar. Tough here I can understand some improved use cases, but:
- you take away precious RAM
- then you swap out programs and compress them (uses a lot of CPU)
- if you swap the program in again, you need to decompress. Granted, the decompress might be a little faster than restarting the app.
- because of the lower useable memory, programs do have an higher chance than before to be compressed (vs killed without ZRAM), so decompression (with ZRAM) statistically will happen more than restarting (without ZRAM), making the gains of ZRAM point 3 less.
- I don't think this works correctly with huge processes (e.g. browser), and will just see that less RAM is available, and will not swap out parts because the whole memory region is still in use (best case, it will continuously swap in & out parts, making it again slower)
I'm not completely trowing out ZRAM, as it is still beneficial with some workload combinations (I think a large collection of small apps is the most optimal case)

You now have root access, now what?

Hello all.
After recently obtaining root (see thread asus padfone x mini rooting device) I thought we could all begin to catalog what we have changed. Any app that required root and has proven useful and effective for you, please share it here and I will begin to aggregate all of the useful tools here in this top post.
Some stuff you might want to try after rooting
(Copied from my other thread)
A couple things I did with my phone after root.
1. Froze all bloatware. I might remove it later but I felt safer just freezing it with Titanium Backup in case I find out later it screwed something up.
2. Installed a CPU tweaker like 3C ToolBox. If I choose any governor besides interactive, the phone crashes, freezes and just won't play nice. But I have it set to on boot interactive, 1.33GHz - 1.6GHz and no problem. Phone is much faster now. Also for screen off I have ondemand 800MHZ - 933MHz with 1 CPU online, 2nd free and 3rd offline. Ondemand seems to work fine in screen off maybe because I am not accessing apps on the fly. Before root this phone would suck away the battery life and I would only be able to get 6 hours out of it. I assume it was because all the CPU's were online running high and lows and draining the battery as well as the bloatware just lingering in the background sucking up precious resources. I was right. Once I forced the screen off settings my battery now last 3-4x longer. I can have a full charge in the morning and it still be at about 50% - 60% late at night with the occasional checking emails, checking on a game or two and surfing the web. Awesome!
3. On a more important note, I HATED the AT&T boot up sound. Dun dun dun dun snap. Awful! At night it wakes my wife up when I am in bed needing to reboot my phone. I had to smother it with a pillow to muffle the sound. There was no way to change or quiet it. It was a forced noise on a forced volume. However, I used X-Plore, gave it root and navigated to /system/media/audio and renamed powerup.wav to powerup.wav.bak. No more annoying AT&T sound at bootup! Whoohoo! It is quiet as can be. Love it.
4. I also hated the low battery noise. So I went to /system/media/audio/ui and renamed lowbattery.ogg to lowbattery.ogg.bak and now no more annoying low battery notifications. Only the popup window notifies me. Yay! Progress!
5. Installed SD Fix! Finally! My 3rd party apps can now write to my external micro SD card. This allows for installing apps to SD, moving their data and just overall more usage of the micro sd card that was stupidly blocked when KitKat 4.2.2 was released. I don't care if it has more security risks. Unless they plan on making 64GB+ a standard for all phones for built-in memory, I need my micro sd card to work as intended.
This phone is 100% better because of root. Happy rooting!
How in the world do you move apps to the sd card? I did the SD fix but there is no option to move apps to sd.

I should of been more clear on moving apps to sd. Sorry about that. The operating system doesn't support apps to sd currently at least to my knowledge. Asus will have to come out with an update to their own OS or maybe someone here can do it. However, using the sd fix brings down one more obstacle to getting apps to sd working. Or, just wait for a custom rom.

The phone is dual core so why set three cpu's
the phone is set from factory with interactive 1.6GHz max but it's low is like 200 I checked it out with pimp my rom but didn't change or keep any tweets as my battery life is fine
SDK fix is important you can't even delete files off SDK without it I believe bloat is what causes battery drain trilla the rooting thread top post works
My mod list
Ok, so I wanted to post a reply to this to list what I have done after root access was obtained.
1. I installed Titainum and removed most of the bloatware from AT&T, along with some of the random stuff I don't need.
2. I installed permissions denied to remove permissions from apps and games that don't need access to things like my contacts or network access.
3. Installed busy box and terminal emulator so I have some basic linux commands and can configure my iptables firewall. (on a side note I am still looking at how to install the "netfilter" kernel module to allow droidwall firewall and network logging)
4. Still working on enabling WiFi tether. ( I use Straight Talk, not AT&T )
5. Installed ES File Explorer and gave it root permissions.
6. This doesn't really require root but I added Owncloud for my cloud storage on my own server, Subsonic for music streaming on my own server, carddav for syncing contacts from my own server and configured my email from my own email server. I like to keep all of my information on my server rather then Google's servers, and I am so far completely disconnected from Google other then using their servers to get my apps I use.
Once I get #4 and #5 finished and all my apps I use installed I will be stripping everything "Google" related out of the device including all of google play's services, Gmail and any background services not needed. Since Google wants to use their services for tracking user data I don't feel the need to keep them...

Yes, all of the above invade our privacy which is why all of my email, cloud storage, and music is hosted on my own server at my house and secured with SSL encryption. I don't use microsoft, google or apple for my personal information, but I keep a gmail account for a junk mail account (not connected to my phone) and exchange for work. Also my phone is encrypted as well as my text messaging database (text secure). Now I know this does not fix all vulnerabilities but it sure does reduce them and make me feel better that my information is for the better part under my control. As far as credit card data, if I were to even consider putting that on my phone or even my SS number it would all be stored under an encrypted database.
I also do not use public hotspots since that would just open a whole other world of vulnerabilities.

After I rooted my Mini X, I just re-partitioned my 64gb external micro sd into 3 parts. 50 gb as ntfs for regular storage, 10 gb as ext4 for link2sd app to create a link for moving apps to the sd. and the rest which was a little over 3 gb or so as swap space to help with the 1gb low ram using memory swap for root. I keep all of my important apps on the 8 gb internal phone storage... or 4gb and the rest of them go to the 10 gb reserved within the partition i created on the sd. as far as "memory swap for root" goes. It took some time to figure out how to use the swap partition, because the location /dev/block/mmcblk1p3 didn't exist. but after I rebooted everything worked as it should have. Now my mini x which is running net 10 can outrun the zenfone 5 on the antutu benchmark. There is a little glitch when you reboot, which is probably the sd mounting but after that everything runs much faster. Considering how crappy it ran from being stock. I almost took it back.
Still waiting for cwm and cyanogenmod to meet this phone. I hope this trick helped you I won't be around much online to make a step by step how to on this. Considering i am currently a laser technician and working 12 hour shifts at the moment. But to format the micro i used "full wipe" and to create partitions i used "AParted" by sylkat tools

Yeah, I actually returned my Asus Padfone because I couldn't use netfilter. I needed it for network logging and Droidwall, so it was kinda a deal breaker... I ended up getting a Sony Xperia T2 unlocked and rooting it, so far everything I needed is working better then I would hoped with the Sony.
I wish you luck with your Zenfone.
Custom ROM ?
Hey all,
I'm new to the padfone x mini seeing that my note 2 finally said I give up.. But what has to happen to get a ROM oor this thing.. It seems to me that the padfone x mini has a decent amount of potential here!.. I am no developer and have never done so but I know my way around d a PC and I know my way around linux a bit. I would just like to know where to start for developing a ROM for this phone and my first actually... Any help or guidance in the proper direction is much appreciated.
Factory rom backup?
Did anyone do a backup? We're really going to need one.
I installed Root Booster which made my phone actually stable. It hasn't crashed since I installed it and paid for the high stability mode.
Removed a lot of the Google and AT&T apps. The GOOGLE app itself and the Play Music, Play Videos, Play Books, etc. were removed with the store intact and related services left alone.
Performance jumped up once I removed the "Google" app named essentially just that, "Google".
But most importantly, it is stable. Like when I installed Lollipop on the Padfone X regular, this one makes the tablet worth it and proves that AT&T destroyed yet another device with its idiocy. But I'm running this on T-Mobile since the device itself was unlocked when I got mine for $99.
Also, I reinstalled the Google Music, Video apps since you can but I wanted to remove the default version that comes preinstalled with the ROM. BUT make sure to use System app remover (ROOT) by Jumobile. If you uninstall too much, this lets you restore it right back. Just don't purge the recycle bin.
