i havent really noticed any performance increases with any init.d scripts. v6 supercharger actually caused me to slow down, and i have tried every single setting (not just 500hp).
[Motorola Droid 3] Darksurf:
This hack is 4w350/\/\3 ! On light use, all day I end up having to charge my phone at the end of the day, but yesterday I got home with 70% left! Now I can start using my phone more without worry of having a dead battery before I leave work!
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
Can I flash this with Safestrap on top of CM7? My D3 has CM7 on it..
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Yes. This works for ANY rom thats rooted. Bootstrap and safestrap compatible.
[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
Any update on this re XT860? I'm thinking of doing a similar tweak.
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
The tweaks work well, but I had to remove them. The reason being that whatever tweak is applied to the kernel, interferes with my ability to wifi tether. I still really appreciate the excellent work that went into this, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! :)
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
I noticed when going thru my build.prop that the script increased wifi scan time to 300 seconds to save battery. I think normal is 45. That could possibly be your issue since tether used you phone wifi to provide the data to the other device. M,aybe that's why your not finding your device to tether to. If you lower that in theory it may fix your issue.
[Motorola Droid 3] jon135:
Can't flash this or speedy for some reason. It says bad file can't open in recovery when I try to flash. Am I doing something wrong? Running steel droid 3
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
Assuming your rooted, and have CWM recovery in place. Then it must be a bad/corrupt download. Re-download the file then put it back on your card and flash away.
[Motorola Droid 3] jon135:
Am rooted. As stated, running steel droid. Thought of bad download, have downloaded the init.d file and the speedy.zip file multiple times to no avail. Must be something with my phone not the download. Or im doing something really dumb, I just can't get it to work
[Motorola Droid 3] bgarlock:
This thing rocks. I need to dig into it more, but why wouldn't Motorola include this tuning in stock?
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
Nobody includes this tuning in stock.
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
All carriers lack these tweak tunings on every phone, I've owned 4 Android phones, same story on HTC, Samsung, Motorola. Reason, unknown. Maybe because, like over clocking, each phone can be optimized and handle different settings but the base line is what they put out to get everything working ok. That or they don't care top refine it that much.
[Motorola Droid 3] pedroramos:
I'm new in android.. this is my first android cell phone...

I downloaded the safestrap on the hashcode's site:

Droid 3 :: v1.06 [ 2011-11-20 ]

md5sum: 72ac240d099ff2ab2a755ce8ff95060b

I had never used recovery neither enable safe system before.

so I installed the "Droid3Safestrap-1.0.apk" >> installed recovery >> boot the phone >> entered in recovery menu >> enable safe system >> install zip from SD card >> selected the INIT.D HACK file >> it was installed >> i puted to boot the phone and it freezed.

I turned of battery and turn it on, it pasted the recovery menu and then it didn't boot.

I turned of battery again and entered in recovery menu >> disable safe system and the it booted.

I read this:

"Use Bootstrap. Its probably not booting because you need to install a ROM after you enable safe system for the first time." from ChaoticWeaponry

so I unnistalled the safestrap and installed the bootstraped...

I put to do the boot by the bootstrap >> select the init.d file >> it installed >> boot the cell and it booted normal..

is the init.d already working? how can I see it?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I'm a bit confused..why does the title say for speed, performance... then the download says does not speed up your phone :confused:
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
You want to use the first link, not the download link which is the last one.
[Motorola Droid 3] pedroramos:
anyone could help me?
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
You're not going to "see" the tweaks working per se…you just have to "eyeball" it, and see what happens. If this is your first Android device (and I'm not sure how long you've actually had the phone), you may not have the first hand experience with ROMs and tweaks to be able to tell the difference between stock and modified. Just give it a couple of days for the tweaks to "settle in", use your phone like you normally would, and start by comparing battery life. If you're seeing a significant improvement in that area, then keep the tweaks, and don't worry about much else. If you're seeing no improvements, then start looking at what's eating your battery (cell standby, display, specific apps, etc). Sometimes improving responsiveness and battery life can be as simple as freezing some of the useless bloatware apps that constantly run in the background. Try it out over the weekend, and see how things go. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Ah I see... however now it says:

But I see only 1 version and the zip doesn't contain 2 folders anything. Am I missing something?

EDIT: oh.. the 1st one is for droid 3/2.. i get it:p
[Motorola Droid 3] pedroramos:
Yes, this is my first flash ROM

My objective at this moment is to take the battery life longer...

I tryed underclock in some profiles in setcpu but the app appears to be no good on droid 3... the phone freezes sometimes...

Thanks a lot
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
From what I understand, SetCPU will only work "well" with the Moto-Hotplug option set. Any other governor setting seems to initiate force- closes, and freezing. As a matter of interest, what ROM are you running? Are you just rooted, and running the stock system, or are you using a custom ROM like CM7 or Liberty?
[Motorola Droid 3] pedroramos:
jjhiza, thanks for the replies.

I'm very noob in this yet...

my first step was root the phone to try the setcpu and improve the battery life.. I could understand the profiles, the priority in each one but I couldn't understand the governors even reaging the setcpu site.

then I discover this forum.. I saw a post that tells about better gsm signal for non verizon users(my case) and I used prop editor to change a line and this works well

after this I started to see many topics talking about ROMs but I didn't know what it means... I saw this topic about init.d and users reporting a great improvement in the battery life so I tried to get it on. I discover safestrap and bootstrap and discover that this was for to flash(install) the ROMS...

safestrap caused me a problem that I reported above(I think it happened because I had never flashed a ROM yet).. and I used bootstrap and its ok(I think)... the ".itworks" file is in the /data partition.

I learned that safestrap don't overwrite the stock system because it installs the ROM on another partition.

on the other hand, I flashed the inid.t using bootstrap so I don't know if it can be undo...

In fact, I'm a little insecure and uninformed about ROMS, theis beneficts and riscs..

I try to search on web some information material for newbies like me but I don't find anything and I'm interested on this.

There are many options in boot/safe strap that I don't know how to use or for what it servers.. i'm afraid of flash some ROM and can not undo this later...

I see people talking about the CM7 and liberty ROM but I don't know for what it servers?

I see roms like: "monsterandroid", "black android" and in my newbie mind it looks like just a interface change of the system.. I don't know about CM7 and liberty how it works..

as you saw I'm very noob and this is my newbie experience until today.

thanks man

sorry to bother you
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
No worries man, it's no bother at all. If you're not familiar with ROMs, then just read through some of the threads, and you'll find some good information. The one thing you need to avoid is trying to flash a CDMA (Sprint and Verizon) ROM on your GSM device... this will probably lead to you bricking your phone, and being really pissed off! Most ROM developers will list, somewhere in the first post, whether their stuff is for CDMA or GSM, and will provide instructions (or links) on how to flash them successfully. If you follow the instructions completely, and take your time, you should be fine, but be careful, and make sure you understand what you're doing. And don't be so excited to start flashing stuff, that you lose focus... I had the original Droid, and I researched for about 3 months before I even rooted the thing. I always like to read the first few pages of a thread, and the last few, to see what benefits I'll be gaining, and what issues people are having. If the pros outweigh the cons, then I'll flash away, but if there are issues that I don't want to deal with, I leave it alone and wait.

The bottom line is, take your time, and don't get in over your head. If you get the feeling that you don't understand something, then wait, do some research, ask questions, and come back when you're ready. If you have any other questions feel free to PM me... I don't want to take up too much thread space with a relatively unrelated conversation. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
I've been getting incredible battery life on my D3 with CM7 and this.

Right now my phone is at 28% after 1 day and 4 hours with my extended battery. I've been using wifi, 3g, using taptu, twitter, google+, facebook, tumblr, calling people, texting, streaming videos with youtube and vevo and icefilms..

i'm happy :)

INIT.D Hack

Tried be use Koush's BootStrap to install INIT.D and got stuck at logo. The zip opened just fine, successful loading. The hacks logo and info looked great. Then stuck at M logo during reboot. Softbrick. I am running Hascodes CM7 updated to work with Koush BootStrap and RomManager. Any help on what I'm doing wrong would be great. I ran CM nightlies on my D1. And on this D3, before CM7, I had V6 supercharge scripts. But this CM7 is alpha so not all is working and I don't know if there is a work around . I really want the Android/Moto User Behavioral Tracking. Every time I usb my phone , here come Verizon or Motorola on my computer. This is very bad. And a voilation of my freedoms. Period.
[Motorola Droid 3] jaywee:
got the same mistake~could anyone help?plzzzzzzzzz
[Motorola Droid 3] matthskim:
This hack works!

I installed this hack. This is the main reason I rooted my phone. With moderate use (internet, text message and some phone calls), it used only 20% battery during 11 hours.

This really works.

Edit: By the way, I am on stock rom using the Pete's debloat script.
[Motorola Droid 3] Baconstrip:
Last night I decided to install liberty and the init.d script instead of using my stock 5.678(or whatever). I cannot believe just how much faster my phone is and how much the battery life has improved. Normally at this time during my work day I would be nearing empty and that's even with a small amount of recharging..... but without charging since I woke up, I'm sitting on 53% battery.

I don't know if it matters... but I also wiped my battery stats after I woke up today.

Ridiculous improvements.... why don't they exist by default? What does installing the init.d script change that manufacturers would not want to do???
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I guess logging stuff they are bound to by contract
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
If you're looking to completely maximize battery, you may also want to install Juice Defender. It does make a difference. I liked it so much I went with the full version for much more customizations. I can go a full day with pretty heavy use.

Hashcode's CM9/ICS Alpha #2

I am wondering if I can run this with Hashcode's CM9/ICS Alpha #2 using Safestrap.
[Motorola Droid 3] sparkyman216:
Yes u can run on hash codes pics
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
I'm kinda skeptical of this. Or perhaps I'm or it's missing something.

After looking at the scripts, all it does is tries to deletes a bunch of scripts (only a few of which are even present), deletes the Init.d folder and replaces it with literally nothing, installs another version of busybox, and that's it.

It says that it includes Init.d tweaks from this thread (which include stats logging disables, kernel tweaks, VM heap tweaks, memory management, battery life tweaks, and a bevy of others), but it does not.

What gives?

It seems this was intended as only an init.d enabler.
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
You can run it, yes. But it doesn't enable init.d, or do much else for that matter. :eek:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
It is possible to compile for armv5, and as far as I know armv5 is compatible with armv6. I don't have enough powerful PC to do that (it would take like 30-40h to compile on my PC). So maybe someone could do that.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
Because it's not easy....the source is not complete to just build a functional ROM, the libraries...but of course can be done.

And I could be wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
Btw I read u were working on a port...how is it going?

And what is the ram on ur PC? So then I'll decide if it is possible for me to take a dive into deep sea or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
I tried to compile it, but got an error. But I guess boot.img compiled successfuly. So I took a system.img from Hero (hero is armv5 device) but unfortunately something was wrong with my updater-script and I couldn't flash it.

Not ubuntu specificly. You just need a linux distribution. I actually decided to start the porting this thursday. But since he has a better pc. He will do it faster. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] nishanty13:
If you want to start development do it. Don't just give childish reasons.

Those are not childish reasons. Like in the hacker manifesto or in the manual said. That no problem has to be solved twice.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
Damn.. I am always getting errors when compiling recovery... Every time the error is different! I guess the compiling is just not meant to be for x86 (32bit) systems...

Netas3k, maybe you could try?

Also:

I have these files in my output folder:

Maybe someone can try to do something with those.

boot.img

ramdisk.img

kernel file

Seems that I get the errors while compiling "recovery/recovery_ui.o"

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Netas3k:
The Whisp,

Can you provide the specs of you RAM and the Processor? Most importantly about your processor i need is how many cores :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AntiBillOS:
Can i use PC with

3GHZ CPU Dual core

1GB Ram

?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
I'm just compiling on AMD Sempron @ 1.9ghz and 1.2GB RAM. So... it would take like 30-40h to get it done. Maybe even more.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
u guys on ubuntu x32 or 64?

i'm not sure which to choose
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
If your processor supports 64 bits then go for x64 OS, it will be much faster and will have better performance. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Netas3k:
The Whisp,

Can you please tell me how many cores? Cause i can't google it. There are a lot of Sempron processor models.

AntiBillOS,

See with android it goes like this :

1 core = 2 GB RAM

2 cores = 4 GB RAM

3 cores = 6 GB RAM

and on and on again...

So you need it like this. If not the compiling will crash... That's why i asked you TheWhisp it may not be the compiling since you get a different error it maybe that you don't have required specs. Once i will get my new PC (that is tomorrow) the compiling for me will take about 4 h to compile :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
@ Netas3k: 1 core :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Netas3k:
So that is probably your answer to your errors... And that 1 core = 2 GB RAM... only applies to ICS, i think.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] flowish:
32 bit for RAM 4GB<

64 bit for RAM 4GB++ and processors support it

why not use other distro ? , you can use arch, gentoo, and many more linux :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Netas3k:
The 64x system doesn't matter the RAM. If you processor supports 64 bit systems then you better use the 64x version :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
thanks for all the replies...

I have a amd athlon dual core but only 2gb ram...and with that running ubuntu on a VB is a pain..i'm already having a tough time working my way around VB.

So i'll try and get to 4gb ram and in the mean time i'll figure out VB and ubuntu.

@ flowish,

i only choose ubuntu cuz it was more common, will i be able to run the other distributions on a virtual machine as well?

even i read for 2gb ram it's better to choose x32
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
Main priority is on CPU, then comes RAM.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
i think my cpu supports x64...but i'm only allocating around 1gb ram for linux,think i need to set a high swap partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
You can install ubuntu as a program in Windows. And later just uninstall it if you don't need it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
u mean wubi rite?

hmm..dsixda told to use this method as last resort as it modifies the pc's bootloader, i didn try it as i dont have much technical experience(shouldn't be much prob though).

anyway i'm liking linux a lot now :)

Hi to all!

Here Android 4.0 ICS for LG GT540

(Arm v6\320x480)

Can we use this for port to Samsung S5570 Galaxy Mini?

http://aosp.mikegapinski.cba.pl/
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
For those who are going to Linux from Windows, don't install it with wubi on same parittion as windows. Create a new partition and install it there. It's the best method from stability and many other points of view. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] nishanty13:
Thanks, I was thinking of installing it.

But just one question how much size would it require.

I think you should make a tutorial :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Arafo:
I have a quad core cpu with 8gb ram and ubuntu x64
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
Ubuntu doesn't require more size in itself (about 4 GB is fine for a simple installation) but, since you are or will be going to deal with large repos you need much more space than the requirement. Also, from what I learned here (all these guyz talking about computers) I don't think it can be done with a Personal computer which has a -4 GB ram, dual core processor, and nothing much more.. Though it can be done it will be a tedious , slow and lousy work.

Anyway, back to the point, create a partition with the maximum storage size you can afford. if you are installing linux for general purpose (home/personal) use around 100 GB should be more than enough. Also, if you have no knowledge of partitioning I suggest you don't try doing it. However, you can isntall on any of the previous partitions that are already there on your PC.

And, about the tutorial, Partitioning has many wide scope to cover, (sometime even removing current system and then reinstall both operating system again) so it can't be covered only by tutorial unless you have some previous experience. But, it is another thing that many partitioning tools available today have made the task very easier, some can even shrink the size without losing hte data and break into two parts, and many more. So, you may try with one if you really want to go to Linux. :)
