For bm seeder, is it just flash in cwm? Coz i didn't see any icon in my phone, thx!
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
no icon .. u can see it on etc.init.d folder ...
[Nexus S Android Development] Mr_Biggles:
Same problem here. Slimbean 4.2.2 Build 3, whatever kernel that comes with it. NFC service & com.android.phone both FC at boot.

I'm also having same problem on Xenon rom as well:(
[Nexus S Android Development] explorer-10:
is there a MEMFREE tweak zip for JDQ39E-based roms?
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
In order to use the Memfree tweak on every ROM, extract the /system/framework/services.jar from the ROM and upload it to android.mimic.ca, let the site edit the file, download the edited services.jar and put it in the BM Memfree zip file. Then flash the BM Memfree zip in the Recovery.

The attached Memfree zip is for the stock JZO54K ROM.
[Nexus S Android Development] explorer-10:
If I flashed the bm nexus tweak and memfree mod, should it show that it's working? I opened up root explorer and went into the cache folder and see no dalvik cache folder present. Does it mean that it isn't working?
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
Not working...u have busybox apk ?make to xbin
[Nexus S Android Development] Setting.Out:
Init. May also not be active..
[Nexus S Android Development] explorer-10:
Yes, already had it set to be installed at /xbin location
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
Ok then do this step. Format system,cache,boot,wipe cache,wipedalvic cache, flash rom gapps kernel reboot set busybox to xbin turn off flash the memfree and tweak
[Nexus S Android Development] explorer-10:
You want me to do a factory reset?

[Nexus S Android Development] explorer-10:
Anyway, after numerous reboots and numerous cache and dalvik cache wiping, eventually it came through, but now I have no status bar and not able to change wallpaper. It's always stuck at the nexus lap no matter what static wp I change it to. Also, long-pressing the home button doesn't bring up the recently open apps =(

any one still use seeder ?
[Nexus S Android Development] frost866:
when I flash it thru CWM i stock at google sign. so do I need to copy the other folder as well?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
You can. For other folders and files you need to set permissions to 644.
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Do me a favor - open the CWM zip file and delete the /system/etc/init.d/87calibration file. Flash the zip.

Please report if it works now or still stuck on Google bootscreen.

Still the same thing tho. stuck on google bootscreen.

Hi

I Flashed "BRAINMASTER_TWEAKS_CM9_v1.1_BOOT_NEXUS_S_v3.zip" Through CWM on i9023 CM9, v1.1, ended with no WiFi and no 3G,
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
I'm using the same on CM9 without any issues.

I suppose that you followed my instruction to flash a custom kernel afterwards, if you use one. Did you?
[Nexus S Android Development] bgdxv:
Can someone please teach me how to translate the original chinese stable version 2.3.7 c? :( I just want all the apps to be in english.
[Nexus S Android Development] DaXmax:
Hi Brainmaster,

I love your tweaks of init.d but i unable to make it work on Galaxy S... Is there any possibilities?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Yes, you need to put an "S" as prefix for the tweaks (96tweaks becomes S86tweaks) and you need to open all of the tweaks and change the paths for all of the mounting points to work on Galaxy S, because now they are set for Nexus S.
[Nexus S Android Development] DaXmax:
Could u do that for me? Or where is the mounting point for galaxy s?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Sorry, don't have the time for it.

Mount points can be easily found on github when looking for CWM Recovery for Nexus S under the configuration files. You should look for mounting points for /system, /data and /cache partitions.
[Nexus S Android Development] DaXmax:
Thanks, i will find it...

*beep**beep* IMDriving...
[Nexus S Android Development] ehsangolpesar12:
Thanks for reply, no i don't use custom kernel on cm9, I did full wipe for installing CM9, and was on stock 4.0.3 before.
[Nexus S Android Development] armoredkin:
This MOD is great. Works fine with my Stock ICS Nexus S and Franco Kernel. But i have something to ask. Does EXT4 tweak will have conflict with Franco EXT4 patch?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I'm sure this has been asked anyway you get us 4G nexus user a port of this...that would be awesome Brainmaster
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Now implemented these tweaks into the full PixelRom v1.20. Superfly!
[Nexus S Android Development] sperelli:
is there a miui rom with all those tweaks in?
[Nexus S Android Development] ljordan2:
I belive that Swat team's rom has bm's tweaks.
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Added tweaks for the Codename Android 1.2.0 ROM.

The tweaks are modified - no 87calibration since its not working.

In the 96tweak all memory tweaks are removed. Hosts file is present, 08dalvik mover script, advanced zipaligning and build.prop tweaks.

When flashing this, DON'T use the Zipalign and SDBoost in the Startup tweaks in the ROM options!
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
I have edited the Mobile_Sensei's ROM prepare tool and added the deletion of the /sdcard/.android_secure folder.

Now when you flash new ROM and want to do a clean install, just flash this file.

It does following:

deletes /sdcard/.android_secure

deletes /cache

deletes /data/dalvik-cache

formats /cache

formats /data

formats /boot

formats /system

Happy flashing!

You can download it here.
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
hi brainmaster!!

thx a lot for this work

I'm asking myself what mod do i have to dl, the first one for "all others ics ROM" or the one for stock ICS roms? ( i want to flash it on a clean install of the 1.10 version of Wildestpixel's rom)

thx for help :)
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Install his 1.20 ROM, it has my tweaks integrated.
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
hi, no there are some tweaks that i don't like on this version, not enough stock for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] sean1984:
what would be the correct package to flash with peter alfonso's rom?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
In the second post you can also find the Dalvik-Wiper when you're updating your ROM.
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Don't know, I'm not familiar with his ROM.

Trial and error - make a Nandbackup and try one version. I think that he has integrated a Busybox, and don't flash a file that has Boot.img integrated.
[Nexus S Android Development] mezz_89:
Hi,Brainmaster.. I'm on your MIUI GB v2.. Do I need to apply any tweaks? If so,which tweaks? Thank you..
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Everything fine there.
[Nexus S Android Development] mezz_89:
Pardon me,but what do you mean by that? I don't have to apply these tweaks on this thread or I should apply all these tweaks?
[Nexus S Android Development] Kurupt1:
Made a ns4g flashable zip if anybody wants it, and of course with the creator Brainmaster's permission. Great work.
[Nexus S Android Development] Articudos:
Can I remove some tweaks after installing zip file??
[Nexus S Android Development] nexus_junkie:
Brainmaster is the "Think Tank"! :)
[Nexus S Android Development] g51363:
Hi Brainmaster.

I'm wondering if i can flash your tweaks over the latest cm9 rc0?

Thank you!
[Nexus S Android Development] t3ej4y:
Yeah, would like to know if the tweaks package for cm9 1.1 or the generic one for ICS with init.d support should be flashed over cm9 v3.4 RC0 too. Thanks in advance BM!

[Nexus S Android Development] :
Does anyone use these tweaks for Bug less Beast? Which zip should I flash
[Nexus S Android Development] michalurban:
Im curious - how is that possible that this tool is so quick. Its done within some 3 seconds while the format of the 4 partitions alone (when doing it manually, not counting the time needed to go through the cwm menu) takes 7 seconds ... ?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
with your miui rom every tweaks installed. you don't have to do something. :)

Hi Brain, thanks for your job! Is there any chance to see a flashable supercharger for	CNA again? It was mind blowing on 1.5.5!

[Nexus S Android Development] bellaale:

[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Tweaks are now updated. They can be applied to ANY ROM.

The boot.img is not a part of the tweaks anymore. The init.d scripts support is applied trough the script that is executed when flashing the tweaks zip.

If you are already using my tweaks, then please install the new tweaks package AFTER you install the ROM that you're using.
[Nexus S Android Development] Sc4ryB3ar:
I have just installed the tweaks,include the optional memfree tweak, on greenblue's 4.2.1 and everything appears to have installed correctly Except the dalvic script. Could I have done something wrong? Also moved to cwm recovery 6.0.1.9, which appears to be slightly buggy on the ns4g....
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
Brainmaster is this ok to use it with 4.2.1 rom ?

This is my version adjusted for the Nexus S.

[Nexus S Android Development] treesurf:
Thank you, looks very interesting. How to disable it after it's been flashed?
[Nexus S Android Development] n2d551:
Thanks for everything you're top notch!
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
If you need to - just delete the /system/etc/init.d/99seeder file. But I wouldn't do that. The seeder tweak is really good - especially when multitasking or playing games or using graphic intensive apps like GMaps.
[Nexus S Android Development] xxxMADxxx:
seeder tweak is compatible with your tweak sir?? i want to test..look promising :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus S Android Development] treesurf:
Thanks, flashed it. Will report back after running it for a little while. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] xis123:
Thank you for tailoring this for the Nexus S.

I just flashed it and I can tell you now guys - there is a HUGE difference in speed. The stock browser loads NEAR-instant, (other apps as well, such as my net banking app which took ages now is also near-instant, calculator app is instant) pressing the drawer button on the home screen looks so much more fluid, switching between apps is so much faster, project butter actually feels like project butter now. This is the best tweak I've flashed yet!

THANK YOU BRAINMASTER, My Nexus S feels like a current-gen smartphone! No need to upgrade at all! I could not imagine how snappy it'd be on a Nexus 4 / SGS3

I'm now charging my phone to 95% and will test battery life from there.

I RECOMMEND WHOLEHEARTEDLY TO FLASH THIS TWEAK AND SPREAD THE WORD!!

Don't believe me guys? Flash it and experience it for yourself then report back!! :D
[Nexus S Android Development] xxxMADxxx:
so BM.seeder can flashed top of BM.Tweaks.NEXUS.S ??
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Yes. It doesn't interfere.

Yes, as I saw the tweak, I thought of you guys here.
[Nexus S Android Development] xxxMADxxx:
thanks sir..really appreciate to you because it is not forgotten your OLD phone..:good::good:
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
This is sorcery. My phone doesn't have lag at all after flashing the seeder tweak! LOL i don't need OC anymore. Great work!
[Nexus S Android Development] treesurf:
Very impressive tweak. Will be interesting to see if battery life is affected.
[Nexus S Android Development] Sesese87:
To everyone, you should flash it !!

Very nice tweak, many thanks

Amazing improvement on my Nexus S.

I've just played a couple of laps in Need for Speed MW.

Before it had some hick-ups. Now it's perfect butter smooth

It actually runs smoother than on my (stock/rooted) Nexus 7 :D

All other apps also feels smoother.

Thanks for sharing this :good:

if i go to terminal and put

su

watch -n 1 cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail it shows nothing after opening some apps like gMap

can some1 check this?
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
The seeder tweak did not affect the recently flashed AOSP rom on my device. (not CM based)Or maybe the ROM just s*cks?

Tomorrow i'll do some testing on different ROMs. I really hope this tweak isn't just plain placebo lol.

I'm running Slim Rom, how to check if BM Seeder works?

Sent from my pretty cool Nexus S

Phone : Google Nexus S i9023

ROM : MIUI 2.12.21 by MIUI France (Android 4.1.2)

Kernel : Marmite v7.2.3 by Bedalus @1320 MHz (FSB OC)
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
If it's faster, it works.
[Nexus S Android Development] aLNG:
lol what kind of answer is that

You have to go to terminal emulator (if you don't have it just download it from play store) and put

su

(enter)

seeder

for me i cant put generator on..so its not working for me
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
Sorry for the "wrong" answer.

My point is, the dev is absolutely sure that this tweak will make devices faster.

If you installed the tweak and it's not faster, you might be doing something wrong, or the tweak is an epic fail.
[Nexus S Android Development] atxbang56:
thanks.I tried it but can't enable too on last Slim Rom.why?

Sent from my pretty cool Nexus S

Phone : Google Nexus S i9023

[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
You can't do that since I took the seeder menu out and use instead the init.d script. The tweak works, I've tested it on my N4 as I always do.

I've never released untested stuff.

It's not epic fail. As I brought out the SDCard Read Ahead tweak, allot of people told that, but it was proven that works. Today its part of all big repo's and everybody uses it.

If you follow the "seeder" thread, you can see that it works and that this tweak is already known for a longer period, it just didn't came on surface until now.

So if some of you don't see any effect or say it's placebo - it's your right to have that opinion, but keep it for yourself.

I know what I'm doing when I release a tweak.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Hi bm, so I guess this also applies to the apk file the original mod developer made for enabling it, since it always appears off every time I go into the app, even after I turned it on before, correct?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Yes.
[Nexus S Android Development] gabidiesel:
I flashed it ...and I dont have in /cache folder......dalvik-cache folder present....it works?????
[Nexus S Android Development] jwee5467:
You need to install busybox to /system/xbin
[Nexus S Android Development] gabidiesel:
I installed busybox in system/xbin...
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
Sorry for that. I greatly appreciate your work and effort.

I figured out that the ROM i flashed (aosp based) is really buggy and the tweak made it a lot worse; it's slower. (i don't know why)

So i returned to a CM based rom, flashed the seeder tweak and yes, it really does work!

Just wanted to share my experience on different types of ROMs.
[Nexus S Android Development] ziociccio:
also for me.

i have tsm rom based on stock jb.

i back to my backuped rom and flashed only seeder,but the tweaks is very very slow
[Nexus S Android Development] klinker:
On rasbeanjelly with marmite 7.2.3CM also no diference with the tweak. But this combination is realy smooth also without the tweak :)

On the road with my Nexus S...
[Nexus S Android Development] dinuvali:
how are you using an aosp rom with the cm io kernel?
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
Seems weird but cm kernels work on rasbeanjelly 4.2.1.

I don't get it why i get the lag when i flashed those 2 zip on my Nexus S, Using Hellybean latest build and Marmite CM. :crying:

Its laggy.
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
The BM Tweak caused lags on my device as well.
[Nexus S Android Development] klinker:
Actualy the all other rom version don't work good...it take 5min+ for boot. With CM version working like a sharm :)

Flash just sedeer. For me on RBJ and MarmiteCM with the BM tweaks the phone can't boot...just stay on bootanimation.
[Nexus S Android Development] kwibis:
Klinker, you have to flash the tweaks correct. I'm on the same combo and tweaks run fine. Not sure if I notice any difference though, phone is just plain smooth!

[Nexus S Android Development] Zahih:
Me too, it causes lags also on my NS.

But when I flashed only the sedeer, it works like a charm, more smooth and more faster response.

I'm on Rasbeanjelly + Matr1x 24.5 CM
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
No problem here !
[Nexus S Android Development] migueldbr:
installing only the seeder works great!my browser loads up really fast everytime i open it(even when i close the process)

edit: play store is much faster! before, when i scrolled before the images loaded, it lagged pretty much. now it just does not lag while loading pictures!
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
+1 seeder is all you need. ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] Zahih:
Can we use both? Play Store and BM's seeder version.
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
I've been following the original seeder thread and came up to the conclusion that "deep sleep" will be disregarded once the tweak is enabled.

When i flashed the NS-optimized BM seeder tweak I'm still getting deep sleep on my phone. Why?
[Nexus S Android Development] Fast-Droid:
Awesome!! My NS is running like a champ after flashing Seeder Mod...Thanks BM..
[Nexus S Android Development] sidnoit22:
Now i just flashed the BM seeder only and its fu***ng fast! :D
[Nexus S Android Development] klinker:
I think yes :P don't remember how, but i read instructions of course :)

I agree...rasbean + marmite is awesome...whatever i do just can't run better :P the only thing i don't like in JB is when run an app it take 0,5-1 sec to open...this is the only thing wich was better on rascream.

But this mod really make my NS more faster...
[Nexus S Android Development] n2d551:
Both tweaks running fine on RasbeanJelly for me. Had the original bm tweak flashed since it came out. I think people expect too much. I know after running this (seeder) for a while my home screen instantly populates, browser doesn't hang on close anymore. I'm sure I'll notice other things. Good!
[Nexus S Android Development] dotlab:
I'm on MDO 4.1.2 as my daily and zip with tweaks also slowed my nexus. Seeder zip flashed alone worked and difference is obvious, don't expect your device to be fast as GN after this but it's still a step forward, phone responds better for sure. Intreresting discussion about this on that link Zahih posted, negative comments are about big battery drain and phone not going to sleep. I have none of those, device is sleeping as before, no big battery drain and the only thing I noticed that cpu is ramping a little more often towards 1 ghz than before but nothing special that would significantly affect my battery. So, it's a keeper and thanks again to BM for releasing this to nexus.
