Im experiencing so much home screen re draw it is discomforting and frustrating ive never wanted to throw a phone against the wall. What can i do to fix it?! I know for the droid x there were some command lines that seemed to work but it causes boot loops for me here. Has anyone else experienced this!?

Gummy 1.8 epif+epih

ADW EX <--- (is this my problem? I'll happily drop it for something else)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dragonstalker:
Download and install the tweaks using CWM from within the same gummy thread. Should fix you then.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Joelpatrick:
I have the same frustration. Mine occurs when taking the phone off the media/charging dock. It takes a good 10 seconds or longer for my home screen icons to show back up. I am running gummy charged and have installed the tweak and I even disabled the dock mode but it still has this lag. I wish there was a way for it to not go into dock mode at all. Even with it turned off it still puts my phone in landscape and takes forever to return to normal when I remove it. I just want it to charge it. That's it. It's frustrating bc I keep it on my desk at work charging while I tether to my iPad but when I get a text I want to pick up and reply quickly but I can't bc of the above reason. Rather annoying.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Samsuck:
Are you on Humble? no offense to danalo but that thing is so slow on my phone. Every single version, especially the services.jar frame work for the pulldown menu. that thing lags.

If you want smoothness try Eclipse 1.2 (not the latest)

That cleared all my redraws
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Try both of these. The V6 Supercharger is easier than the Loopy Smoothness tweak, but my phone has never been snappier after using them. Plus I don't get redraws. Ever.

(Both work with any and all ROMs and devices)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Samsuck:
Can you post decent noob friendly instructions on how to install that? Thanks man
[Verizon Droid Charge] Samsuck:
Nvm, i think i figured it out. Did you choose option 6 "hard to kill launcher"

and did you downgrade busybox to 1.82?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Samsuck:
Option 7 has made my phone alot faster. Which one do you use ?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Personally, I use numbers 10 and 11. 11 fixes the OMM groupings. For 10 I use the following settings: 6, 8, 28, 30, 32, 36. And yes, I did downgrade busybox. I also used Zepp's 3g TurboCharger and KickAssKernel(The one without the IO scheduler, I was getting bootloops with it) tweaks plus a bunch of other build.prop tweaks. If you're interested in any of them let me know and I'll post the ones I've found to work best.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
I would love a step by step tutorial for setting up the V6 supercharger as when I did it it jacked my phone up and I had to wipe and restart
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
I have a version of the loopy script I will be including in the next release of gummycharged FE...

Thinking about giving people an option in the toolbox to select there launcher which would then modify the script for them to match the one they have...

if you really good with this script, hit me up on a PM and maybe you take take a look at it and give your input..
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Put the V6_SuperCharger_for_Android*.sh.txt file on your sd card.

Download busybox installer and script manager from the market.

Install busybox 1.18.2

Run script manager and open the V6_SuperCharger file. Make sure to run as ROOT.

Select a text scrolling speed. 2 is suitable if you plan to read all the lines.

Choose a setting. 6 is a good place to start.

Then enter option 16 to reboot your phone. (It will happen immediately)

Go back and run the script again. If the current minfrees match the previous minfrees (These lines are right under the 1-17 menu options), then the settings stuck and you're good to go!

If they don't match, post back here and I'll tell you what to do next. I just don't want to post more than necessary so that it doesn't confuse anyone else reading this.

I honestly just applied this script a few days ago. I try to read into everything as much as possible before applying any tweaks to my phone, so I'd like to think I have a decent handle on how it works.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
ok so what if you already have busybox 1.18.4 installed by using a Rom with it already in it?

edit..I found it in the system xbin and renamed it with .bak at end...so I guess I can install the 1.18.2 one right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Yup. That should do it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
there are 3 versions to use which one?

I see the lower 2 are actually updates....so I am assuming I do the top one?

nevermind I read small print....zip is for milestone units
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Are these okay to run if we have Voodoo enabled?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Just use update 8.

Yes. It'll work with Voodoo enabled. Maybe I should just make a tutorial for the charge... All of the info is in the OP, just read through it all a few times until it makes sense.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
If you could make a tutorial, I would be eternally indebted!

Have you noticed a positive effect with the 3G turbo script? Does it also help with LTE?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Well I posted a brief walkthrough on the previous page. I was just thinking that this is starting to take away from the original topic.

I did apply the 3g Turbo script and made some additional changes to build.prop. It definitely increases the 3g data, but I didn't notice too much of a change to LTE.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Thanks hazard. Perhaps you can start a new thread when you have time detailing some of your findings specific to the Charge and some of the additional changes you made.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
I'll probably do that when gummycharged 2.0 is released. That'll most likely be the next time I flash over a new ROM. Then I can do some before and after testing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterGunz:
That would be awesome. I loaded the script but didn't apply it after reading about people bootlooping. I'm not afraid to Odin a fresh rom if I screw up, I just don't have the time at the moment. I might mess around with it later in the week and see what happens. Seems like this would be beneficial for the Charge considering many of the complaints about the phone are in regards to RAM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kennydied23:
What version of the script are people using? I'm using update 8 but when I try to scroll up to see what the options are all I get are garbage characters.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Go to advanced settings > config > uncheck extra gestures.

[Verizon Droid Charge] kennydied23:
Thanks hazard, I appreciate it
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Thanks so much for your help hazzard. Just installed all of the tweaks and they seem to be working as best as I can tell.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No problem guys. Just make sure to thank Zepp, he's the dev. I'm just passing along the scripts.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Yep. Will be certain to make a donation to him soon.
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
Hey Hazard -- I ran the script following all of your steps on the 2nd page of this thread, and my current minfrees do not match the previous minfrees on reboot. I've checked off "Browse as Root" in the config section, though the script says to check off "Run as Root" in the config section as well, but I can't find that option. Anyway, can you tell me what the next step is? I'm rooted, running the latest Humble Rom (1.51).

Thanks in advance!

EDIT -- Never mind, fixed it myself, Humble wasn't loading the script automatically on boot... thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No no no. When you select the V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update8.sh.txt, it should come up with a menu. You should see 4 buttons at the top of the menu and 4 check boxes below them. Check the box that says "Run as root" and then run the script. As for the Browse as root in the config section, just leave it as is.
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
I did all of that (leaving the "Browse as root" unchecked in config, checking "Run as root" as you said, immediately after I ran the script), and it wasn't working for me, the minfrees did not match on reboot. I read the instructions while the script was running, checked the "Browse as root" button, went into /data and found the 99SuperCharger.sh script and set it to load on boot. This all seems to have worked for me as now the minfrees match. I read that some ROMs don't autoload these scripts on boot, perhaps Humble is one of those? Anyway, it seems to be working, do you feel I've done something wrong?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Well if you got them to match then no. Lol. From the way you were phrasing it, I thought you were only checking browse as root in config and not run as root under the file's menu.

As for the ROM, yes that may be the case.
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
Yeah, phrased it badly, sorry. Ran your instructions to a "t" the first time, didn't work, then tried the other things... thanks for all your help, have no redraws now! Next I may try and tackle loopy, though it seems a bit more involved so I'm a little wary...
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
Thanks for your help Hazard, I don't get that stupid blank home screen anymore when I close apps(happened on all ROMs) that consume a high amount of RAM(cut the rope, plants vs zombies, fieldrunners HD etc). I love you, I really do...
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No problem. And that's slightly creepy.

It is a little more involved because you have to go in and edit the file manually to tell it which apps are to be stored in the cache. If you have experience with BASH or any other kind of coding then it's not difficult at all.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
Interesting, ever since I ran the update the phone is smooth as hell but now ocasionally my music will skip. On all players, Poweramp, songbird, stock, and touchwiz. No high CPu usage or anything, just listening to music with the screen off while at work.

Any clues?

I used update 7, with option 11
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
My music ran flawlessly for a while and then yesterday(before I even heard of the script) my music started skipping in PowerAMP for no apparent reason, it was just a few little skips but it was noticeable, I just rewound the song a little bit and it fixed it. If you have that problem try rewinding your song or restarting your music player. If all else fails try the Loopy Smoothness Tweak and see if that fixes it
[Verizon Droid Charge] Piercing Heavens:
Attempted multiple times and the settings will not persist through reboot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Ok. Then here's what you do. Go to /system/etc/init.d and select the 99supercharger file. Check the boxes that say "run as root" and "run on boot". Then go back and rerun the original V6 script and then the settings should stick.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Piercing Heavens:
It stuck thank you.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No problem. :)

I like how the OP hasn't said anything in this thread since creating it. Lol.
[Verizon Droid Charge] zeuswsu:
I make all my launchers "system persistant" or whatever they call it in options and that fixes all the redraw problems for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I'm on Humble 1.51 and I attempted to do the V6 Supercharger thing and now my phone is stuck in a boot loop...
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Yikes.. I'm sorry man. I hope you used Titanium Backup to back up your apps... The only solution for a boot loop is to flash over a new ROM. Other Humble users were able to run the script without a problem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
It's probably something I did or didn't do anyway, these samsung phones are a PITA to mod. Question... since the new version of CWM doesn't have voodoo controls, do I need to disable voodoo before running the V6 script or does it matter?
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
I'm not sure that I understand what the different numbers for each setting mean on v6.

Is most everyone running one of the balanced versions? How does balanced differ from aggressive?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
It doesn't matter. Let me know if you want to give it another go and you want some help with it. I posted a brief walkthrough earlier in this thread.

I posted this a while back in the V6 thread. Hopefully that will break it down enough for you, if not let me know! Start with balanced and see how you like it. Play around with the settings a bit, it's more of personal preference type of thing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
Thanks man. That's consistent with what I figured, but that gigantic original post is tough to sort through.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Lol. Yeah, I know what you mean. I read the OP three or four times before touching the script to make sure I had a good understanding of how it worked.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Had another go at it after reflashing Humble 1.51, same thing went into another bootloop. I don't understand, I'm following your steps on page two word for word.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
That's really odd.. You're running update 8, right? And the script runs for you fine, it's just when you restart that you bootloop?
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Exactly. I have update 8 on the SD card, install busybox 1.18.2, open up script manager and run the V6 scrip in root mode, run through all of the steps and it generates the minfree numbers, then enter option 16 to reboot. Low and behold, it bootloops on the reboot.

Should I try just exiting out of script manager via option 17 and manually rebooting the phone?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Meh. You can try that, but it shouldn't matter.. I'm thinking busybox could be the culprit seeing as newer versions tend to come preinstalled with some roms/kernels. Before you install busybox 1.18.2, go to /system/xbin and see if busybox is already there.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Well I'll be... it was already installed. I did it again without installing busybox and it rebooted successfully. I'm running the script again to make sure the minfree numbers match. Thank you very much for the help!
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No problem! Glad we could figure it out. :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] thecontrolm7cl:
Funny you say that. I am on vacation so when I used the tweak file from kejar I let it go. But I have been reading this and think I am going to try and give it a shot
[Verizon Droid Charge] d-loko:
I ran into a few issues keeping my memory settings from sticking after reboot and got things running after some troubleshooting.

For those of you running the EE4 Humble x.x ROM, please note:

This particular ROM comes installed with BusyBox v1.18.4 that will not allow you to save your settings properly.

Simply selecting v1.18.2 through the BusyBox Installer will not overwrite the current version.

I had to go into system/xbin and rename the busybox file (.bak).

Then after installing Busybox v1.18.2 and running the script as per instructions, enter option 17 to exit without rebooting.

Goto /data/99SuperCharger.sh and check off the Run as root & Run at boot selections.

Reboot and run the script again to test and you should see matching settings!

I'm up and running smooth on option 6 and will be tweaking the settings over the next few days.

Big thanks to hazard for bringing this to the threads attention!

Everyone interested should give a good read to zepp's original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Sounds good man. I just thought it was funny that the thread had taken off like that and you had never posted to say whether you managed to fix your redraw problem or not.

Thanks for the input d-loko! I'm sure this will help out the humble users considerably.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I tried changing the original busybox file with a .bak extension, then tried to install Busybox 1.18.2, but it would FC the installer and I'm afraid to reboot the phone after my bootloop fiasco last night, while I'm at work. Also, does the busybox file in system/bin (not xbin) need to be renamed or can it stay as it is?
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Nevermind, restored the original busybox, rebooted the phone and did the same procedure of backing up the original and installing 1.18.2, ran the script, set the file to root and boot, and everything ran perfectly and all numbers match.
[Verizon Droid Charge] d-loko:
I don't seem to have a busybox file in my /system/bin...

but at any rate, glad to see you got it up and running!
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I've been running both V6 and the smoothness scripts on a "stock" Humble 1.51, and so far ADW EX has not been improved, in fact it's become a little slower along with the system itself. I have the V6 script on setting 6, and the smoothness script with ADW EX listed as the launcher with the proper process name. It seems like both scripts are actually affecting the performance of the phone negatively, although the lockscreen seems quicker and the drop down notification bar is a little faster, and some apps are quicker but not by much. Ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] thecontrolm7cl:
Yeah I fixed the redraw but started lurking on my own post anyway I think when I get home I'm going to try v6 but I'm debating what the effect on battery life will be. Unfortunately I got a defective battery with my phone so I only get a solid 5 or 6 hours. If this takes away from that precious time until I get my new battery I'm gonna hold off. Any ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterGunz:
It shouldn't hurt your battery life, at least I can't imagine why it would. If anything, I would think less time handling process would equal less power used.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thecontrolm7cl:
Kind of how I figure it also
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Eh. I tried V6 while I was on humble. Boolooped on a restart. I took that chance to switch to GC.

[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I had the same problem, the cause was the preloaded Busybox 1.18.4 on Humble. Go into system/xbin and set the current Busybox file as a .bak, reboot then install Busybox 1.18.2, run the V6 script and reboot, you should be good to go. I'm running Humble 1.51, LP+, V6 and the loopy tweak... this thing is awesome now.

So anything special I should do since im on GC now?

[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Did you fix the OMM groupings using option 11 in the V6 script?

Nope just either follow the brief walkthrough on page 2 or look at the OP for the V6 SuperCharger.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Forgive me, but what does this do exactly and what "groupings" would be recommended for the Droid Charge?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Rememo:
Same here. It seemed to work great right after I installed them, but the next morning the home screen was back to being slow to refresh, and I started getting hangs with completely black screens when exiting apps that I never had before the install.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
I use option 11. It just rearranges where the apps sit so the task killer can be more efficient. As for what particular settings would work best for the charge, it's like I said before it's about personal preference. You're using option 6? Try the aggressive or multitasking options.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I actually did option 11 right before I saw your response. Seems a little better now, although I dumped ADW for LP+ and the phone seems faster.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Interesting. I use ADW and I have had no issues so far.
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Maybe it has something to do with Humble then, I see you're on a different ROM so yours might be working fine with it. Either way, I appreciate the help you've given us with getting V6 up and running! I looked at the original post for V6 on how to install it and I simply said "........what?" haha
[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
Hmm... might go with my guess when I said it might have something to do with Humble. Try using LP or LP+ and see if it runs better, it did for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
No problem.

Lol. Yeah, the OP seemed way over my head at first, but I just dedicated a half hour to educating myself about it and it seemed like cake after that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrmidnight:
The only issue that I have had was with Skype, I'm guessing that it has too many memory leaks for the script, kept logging me out or just shutting it down. Fine by me, the only person I talk to on it is my dad, and I have a PC at home so I can do all that there.

Brain storm. Try editing your heap size.

Has anyone been able to get trapster working properly on their Galaxy Tabs?

I am on Trapster version 3 and have not been able to get the audio notifications working at all for the last two versions.

Prior to the last to versions I did not have a G Tab but had an HTC HD2 dual booting WM6 and an Android froyo build.

The windows version of trapster worked but caused some serious over heating and did not have the same polish. The android version even now a pretty much budget version of whats made for the iphone. though now at least with this new version of trapster I'm not getting the force close or freeze ups anymore so thats a plus for the developers of the app. Thanks for your efforts. I am still left wanting though

Would love to have the audio notifications working and it looks like the problem affects quite a few different devices.

Any thoughts appreciated
