[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
After installing and playing with two 2.17.651.5 based ROM's, it's hard to give up the new base because it is so fast and efficient. That said, 2.17.651.5 changed a lot, and tweaks are limited at this point. I thought I'd share a couple of tweaks I put together that work well on the three updated Evo 3D's I have access to. I've been running these and enjoying them for a couple of days so I though others may find them useful while we wait for OC kernels and other goodies that are compatible with the new base.

BE AWARE OF WHAT THESE MODS DO BEFORE YOU INSTALL

They are designed for Evo 3D's that have had both the firmware and ROM base updated to 2.17.651.5

Even though these are simple boot tweaks, use at your own risk​

New Jan 23, 2012

awakenings v0.5: WiFi scan interval now 5 min w/screen off and 1 min w/screen on for even more battery savings

As with any tweaks, please do a Nandroid backup prior to installing these. While you could just re-flash your ROM of choice to uninstall them, be safe and do a backup first.

Both of these mods can be installed over an Evo 3D 2.17.651.5 base ROM with just a cache/dalvik wipe.

awake-v05-1.2Ghz-E3D-2.17.651.5.zip

Base: 2.17.651.5 only

ROMS: Works on both odexed and deodexed 2.17.651.5 ROMs

Status: confirmed working

These are my awakenings tweaks. They activate full-time dual core operation while the screen is on and single core underclocked operation while the screen is off. Most of these tweaks have a good history in the CleanROM thread (thanks Scott) and they've been adapted to the new base. Here's the breakdown of what it does:

Dual cores online while screen is on

Single core and underclocked while screen is off

(new in 0.5) WiFi scan interval: 1 min while screen on, 5 min while screen off

CPU parameters optimized for the new base/kernel

Dimmed capacitive lights

Uses a consolidated list of tweaks, reviewed and added from other sources

Cleans out (empties) your init.d folder if you have one to avoid conflicting tweaks

init.d support is NOT required: all tweaks are in init.post_boot.sh!

To uninstall, reflash your ROM.

Performance improvements have been measured in the 2% to 12% range (depending on the benchmark). This latest base is difficult to improve upon as it is already fast, but dual core operation does reduce lag in some situations and I believe creates a smoother, snappier UI even on the 2.17.651.5 base. Please do not use these awakening tweaks on ROM's that have the old base: the CPU parameters are specifically optimized for the 2.17.651.5 ROM and kernel (for now).

Very cool circular battery meter with 1% increments plus text percentage. I found this battery meter here at XDA and the install script says it was created by vinchenzop. So credit to vinchenzop: I just took it and ported it into the new 2.17.651.5 base.
