hi,

i have download and install the the script, everything look fast but when i download the script manager from market, installed but keep giving a FC when i tried to run it

Also after install from CWM, my WIFI now cannot connect to the router.

I am on EXT4

i am running on

[ROM] Amestris V5.1 Final [XXJVT]

with Semaphore Kernel v 1.8.0
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Don't understand your question. Maybe you'll do better in the morning :)

Does Amestris disable journaling on the system? I don't think this is related to the CWM zip as the only thing it does it tweak Linux/prop parameters as well as zipalign/sqlite the APKs and .db files respectively.

You might be facing data corruption that would ultimately lead to system instability if journaling is disabled.

About your wifi, try restarting your phone or toggling wifi from the settings menu and see if it can connect again. (it's an old Samsung wifi bug maybe)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Monu123:
How to make sure that script is running?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Try doing in terminal emulator

cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio

They should be 55 and 90 respectively. You can try other settings (check the script and see what it sets, if those settings are applied, then it's being applied correctly)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zerkai:
I see that the system tweaks script you're using by zach is v54, just curious if you checked out his latest v63 and if there's anything there that could be beneficial for your Thunderbolt.

Also what's your thoughts on the fugu tweaks?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
I ported it since v54 and modified it on my own. Can you attach v63? I can insert the goodness of it here and give back what I've found to Zach to merge into his :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zerkai:
Here you go
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Forgot to reply to you regarding the scaling. Yes, around 70 is still ok. Just that music will start to stutter (screen off) when you use it more than 70ish. I'll make the change and update it later :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darckengel:
As most of kernels uses a DVFS for stock music player (400 Mhz for Semaphore, 800Mhz for Talon and many others), changing the up_thresold does not interfer with music
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
It does if you're not using Samsung Music Player :)

These packs looks delicious, will wait for update with supercharger ram script and will flash ASAP!

Keep up good work with speeding up our smartphone!

btw. when I update from for example 1.1 to 1.2 I must uninstall this pack or what? What's the update process?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
It'll erase the old one and install the new one :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Updated to v1.2

Sync from upstream Zach's system_tweak v63 and screenstate_scaling v51

[*]10/11/2011

- Added buffersize tweaks to GPRS and EDGE as well

- Tweaked tcp_wmem and rmem (lower a bit)

- Commented out disable_power_collapse (HTC specific thing)

- Comment out pm.sleep_mode (to make it more compatible with CM7)

- Set max_events_per_sec to 76. Faster GUI, likely.

- Fixed typo on NO_NORMALIZED_SLEEPERS

Still there for beta testing!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sqb:
Been about twelve hours uptime on beta running apex 10 talon rc1 with go ex launcher. still smooth and fast with phone apk working perfect. Thanks for the awesome work and I know it doesn't matter but a 600 boost on quadrant to get my first scores over 3000 is a great improvement on any scale. it tore through the i/o read writes which usually is where it gets hung up.

Sent from a rock on fire in the middle of the sea
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] flolep:
Ok. On beta 2 it is really smooth... But indeed launcher (I have gingerbread launcher with 3d drawer so it is not a very heavy launcher) is reloaded each time after closing an heavy app... And indeed sometimes the phone apk is closing itself and I have to launch it again (but it is really really really rare...). And as I already told you, the bug of 3d / hsdpa is definitely gone. But my god it's smooth!!

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] .:Crack:.:
I can confirm:

On beta 2 i got 1 launcher redraw
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zeppelinrox:
If your rom has it the option, enable "lock home in memory"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] flolep:
I already tried home app adj = 1 in build.prop but in this case I completely lost performance in the heavy apps I was talking about (heavy 3d games or apk with flash video are just examples). So I get back without this tweak... Don't know if it's possible to have good performance and no redraw lol... Pika will have hard times I think :p or good if his passion is pushing things forward :p

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] geokilla:
I'd like to join in on the "beta testing" as well pika. The apps closing multiple times in a row are really frustrating. Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RaymondPJR:
Thunderbolt

The one thing I really noticed after flashing acid tweaks over what was already in SH was that my buffering worked much better when watching videos and any app that uses the 3g for information would automatically refresh if I left it open>closed the phone with power button>and then reopen. Before the acid tweaks a reopened app would show the same info when it was closed, I would have to refresh manually to say...get the updated time of when a bus was going to arrive. Incidentally, I was not getting this behavior with version 1.4, but flashed 1.6 last night and am getting this behavior. Two things continue that began to occur after flashing 1.4: I get a connection error when using an app like xda or speedtest. And more troubling, I was listening to music which is all on my external sd card. I opened speedtest to see what results I would get in that particular area. When I clicked 'Begin Test' the phone froze and I got a sound like a jackhammer comming from my earbuds. I had to reboot and tried to recreate the problem, but I didn't happen again. Things were a little slugginsh after the reboot but then went back to normal.

Anyway, what I wanted to know was would there be any harm/incompatibility of flashing thunderbolt directly over the init.d that I sent to you?:)

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I too had one phone closure while on a call on 1.4 and two closures of the music app. I wasn't doing anything else but listening to music. Had one closure of music in 1.6, while using DailyBriefing to read current news.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Yeah, I prefer having to kill the launcher than to have lags in memory-heavy games. Killing the launcher is better than to kill the browser you're surfing right? :)

Yup, as above :)

Yup, locking the launcher to memory is actually counter-productive to performance. I'll still try to make this better in the next beta :)

Let me send you a PM in a while after I repackage the next beta :P

Acid tweaks's impact towards your phone is not caused by the init.d scripts. If you take a look at the updater_script, you can see that the init.d scripts aren't even chmodded (File Permissions) correctly to execute. The one causing the performance boost is the patched libsqlite (much like mine, but using an older version of sqlite and have a risk of it being patched incorrectly, but since I don't have the source code of the patched sqlite, I can't say that for sure).

ThunderBolt! also has this patched libsqlite actually :) There's no incompatibility as long as you remove the older scripts (actually not removing it also doesn't impact it, but ThunderBolt! by default will chmod all scripts in your init.d causing the unrun scripts to run, and them being runned causes your phone to not have the most optimum settings).

Are you interested in testing the Beta? It solves some parts of the closing of apps while using it :) And it might solve the speedtest app as well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] matsuru:
Pikachu01,

The latest 1.6.2 is very smooth on the desktop, scrolling thru pages.

BUT, i get google framework FC. When i open Gmail, went into the email page then when i click on the email to open it to read, it FC.

Same thing happen to SMS.

As for the other normal apps, they FC as well after opening for a while.

Guess i'll have to uninstall your script and use stock until the script are all optomised and finalize.

i am LOVING the smoothness but hate the FCing :-)

-------------

Does it have to do with the remount script? using script manager? coz i set that to auto mount on reboot.

-------------

It seems that everything is stable. After i type this post and do the auto-remount thingy in script- manager. (i uncheck the auto mount on start up checkbox and run the script to remount it)

I am gonna restart my phone ans see how's the effect now. update later.

-------------

ok. restart and waiting for a while (i was reading forum posts),

no FC, everything seems smooth.

now, i am gonna try the remount script and see how.

--------------

after the remount script, i get a " The application Calendar Storage (process com.android.providers.calendar) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Hmm, if you use a different mount configuration than the CM7/MIUI default, it might be caused by that. Try not using the remount script and see if it still FCs?

If not, try removing the ThunderBolt! scripts in init.d one by one and reboot each time until the FC stops. I'm guessing that you have a special configuration in your build that doesn't react well to the optimization.

It could also be caused by the patched libsqlite. Try reverting the libsqlite (using the one in the restore package).

I have a few beta testers on CM7/MIUI that are reporting no FC problems in 1.6, 1.61 and 1.62. You're the only one reporting FC :/
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Forgot to mention. The slowness when you boot up is due to the zipalign and sqlite script running to optimize your phone. It's a known issue. After it is done, your phone will be super fast :P

Can I flash deodexed JVT stock rom, and then flash odex theme like $omator theme?

If not, where can I get odex JVT CWM stock rom?

Thank you!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] matsuru:
Pikachu01,

More updates on top. I'll continue my new update on this post. :D

-----------------------------

I'll try restart my phone again. this time, without the remounting script and see how it goes. :-)

-----------------------------

ok. after restarting and waiting for a while. trying out sms and gmail seems ok, then try gtalk ... then SUDDENLY i was hit with multiple FCs.....

should i reformat and reinstall CM7 again and start clean...??? =.=;;;

-----------------------------

reverting the libsqlite by copy paste using root explorer, and restarting the phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] s30ckf:
Pika pika, so far I have no FC issue, no major lag (but minor) issue even after few days didn't reboot phone in v1.6.... I would like to enroll as beta tester if you don't mind...

Spec:

Device: Galaxy S i9000

ROM: Simply Honey 5.1

Kernel: TalonDev 0.5.1 RC1

Tweaks: ThunderBolt! v1.6

Other tweaks: Still ThunderBolt v1.6

Launcher: Go Launcer EX
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Yes, you should. When you reflash, please delete libsqlite* from /lib (in CWM zip) and also don't use the remount script. I have a feeling that your phone is prone to corruption.

The stock JVT ROM can be obtained from sammobile or:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KMino:
Some feedback and questions. Using this with TalonDEC rc1 and Loopysmoothness v2 on stock+ JVT. All is very smooth! Question, above configuration any compatibility problems? Mentioning the Loopy script, as its very smooth and have had no problems with my home ADW closing or any other apps..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
The loopy smoothness tweak tries to renice processes which is not a good way to do process management. Tasks that can be killed are meant to be killed to make way for memory hungry processes like games. It's always a push/pull between having more memory and having more processes kept in memory. I prefer having phone and launcher being killed than slowing down my game and overall smoothness of the phone.

Relaunching both the phone and launcher just takes less than a second or sometimes 1 second. It's a cost I am willing to bear for overall smoothness.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eliteforce:
Beta 1. 6. / Want to report that I had too much FC with phone. Apk, 3 reboots after incoming call, some problems with gtalk reboots. My Config is below
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
I see that you're using Supercharger + ThunderBolt!. The settings might be conflicting because I'm using Supercharger's script framework to apply the LMK/OOM.

Also, the changes from 1.6 to 1.6.3 Beta didn't include anything that could make your phone FC or reboot. If you didn't encounter FCs in 1.6, you wouldn't encounter in 1.6.3 Beta.

Phone APK FC is a known bug for XXJV* ROMs. You'll have to apply the fix or use mods like $omator's Stock+ to mod the Phone APK.

About the reboots, I would think that it's a combination of settings or your ROM that is causing it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eliteforce:
Pica i don't use separate Supercharger! Only your twik :) but reboots i had only with beta script:eek: Could you write change log of 1.6.3 and pm a link to test
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rico13:
pika

ive just noticed that you have pasted a warning saying that you shouldnt flash thunderbolt through CWM if youre on cm7/miui

Im on miui and I didnt notice this warning and I flashed thunderbolt through CWM...im having no issues with FCs.

dirty_background_ratio is 55

does this mean that thunderbolt is loaded?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] s30ckf:
in emulator, type:

cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio, will show 55;

and

cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio, will get 90, means the tweaks is working..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
1.6 -> 1.6.3:

- Removed tweaks for TCP buffers.

- Removed Phone RIL settings (3G and HSxPA). I'll release another pack that contains this

- Tweaked the LMK settings

Don't think that it will cause reboots unless you have incompatible tweaks in your phone in the first place. If you're not facing reboots in 1.6, you shouldn't face any reboots for 1.6.3, in fact you have lesser chance to face reboots :/

Must be some misbehaving app at your side.

Some problems were reported by MIUI Fascinate users. Most CM7/MIUI were reported to work fine.

And yes, dirty_background_ratio is correct for being 55. ThunderBolt! is loaded fine :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mab71:
Hey bro.. can u add me as beta tester too?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
Updated 1.6.4 Beta. I've split the 3G Phone RIL tweaks to a separate package as it can cause problems for phones that are not international i9000 or carriers that have special configurations that can be broken by the Phone RIL tweaks. Also made some changes to the LMK/OOM to be less aggressive. Also removed the TCP buffer tweaks as it mostly doesn't apply to our phones :)

To people who suffered data corruption or FCs, please revert to the normal libsqlite*.so files in your restore package. Just copy the libsqlite.so onto the CWM zip and flash them.

This is a beta as the LMK/OOM changes are not finalized yet and can be changed at any moment. Please test and report to me if you face any problems :)

10/23/2011

- Commented out TCP buffer tweaks. This can't really improve more performance than it already is, as using a bigger buffer enables the support for 10Gig transfer rates, but where the heck are you going to get 10Gig transfer rates on phones? :/

- Moved the 3G Phone RIL tweaks to another pack. Use it only if you're an international i9000 user. Remove it if you face incompatibilities with your HSDPA/3G settings or speed.

- Tweaked the LMK/OOM to be less aggressive and more phone/contacts/launcher friendly.

I've bite the bullet and just went thru the reformat and reflashed from clean route to my phone.

Now i have clean CM7. Everything is smooth and silky now and i dont wanna risk any script....for now.

So, i am gonna use my phone as it is. Maybe in the future i get itchy, i will try your script again. by then, hopefully it has mature enuff.

Thank you for your effort again Pikachu01. I will keep my eye on this thread closely. Will report in if i wanna try your script again.

Thank you very much~! :D

Installed v1.6.4 Beta

*playing Golf2 3D from gameloft ( I think this is heavyweight APP)

1) +After incoming call i could resume game

2) +After hiding game! very fast transition to main screen and opening Phone

3) -redrawing Go Launcher, but its better than closing game or browser

I think nice work!:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XuperLugia:
As far as I know the conservative governor is not bundled Semaphore kernel, so I suppose I'd need to load it in the app in order to make the screen state scaling script to work, isn't it?

And would it need to be renamed to "S0_something" to ensure that it's loaded before any Thunderbolt script is loaded?

Thanks for yer fast reply mate.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pikachu01:
If the conservative module is in:

/lib/modules/cpufreq_conservative.ko

It's loaded automatically by the screenstate_scaling script :)

Why is it "hard" to untick the LMK setting? It would interfere with ThunderBolt!'s settings and at last interfere with the performance :(

You don't need to, but if you want to, it's fine.

The 3G tweak is an addon to the main tweaks. Flash it if you want. The main tweaks are still in the ThunderBolt! package.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rebel2k:
Small feedback after having tested 1.6.4 and now 1.6.5.

What I can say is that behaviour has greatly improved between 1.6.2/3 and 1.6.4. I still had a few launcher redraw, but as far as I tested, no auto-close at all! And the phone is smooth and really pleasant to use in every situation. I just downloaded 1.6.5 a few hours ago, it seems to be good so far. I'll give a better advice after a few hours/days more! :)

Thank you for your reactivity Pika!
