@distordedloop thanks for bringing that to peoples attention, its a nice app however i prefer the script its simple and easy, no apps running in the background kinda crap if you know what I mean

and i didn't see you making a post recommending this since there has been alot of issues on the forum regarding multi tasking and not once did you post anything regards to this as a solution but you only replied to me to state this app, which I thank you for.

the script is straight forward and simple, no need to download anything from market, no need to install anything, it just works,

im more of a command prompt kinda guy if you catch my drift,
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
Does your script need manual executing after every reboot?
[HTC One X] slvrarrow:
Is it possible for you to make a script to edit

Dirtybackgroundratio 70

Dirty Ratio 90

VFScachepressure 10

And kill oom allocating task 1?

These greatly help multitasking and help battery life/stutter by holding back cache cleans (although not to enough extent as to slow the device down)

Discovered these ona 512mb device and after testing concluded these provided best multitasking and battery life results.
[HTC One X] mox123:
No just follow instructions and it will work itself until you delete it. I will look into those slvrarrow see if we can improve multi tasking further

edit:

looking at implementing those into the new script slvrarrow, they are good to have to further improve multi tasking and battery

edit2: new script added
[HTC One X] DeciMA:
I'm a bit of a newbie at certain Android stuff. Must I create a folder called init.d? That folder doesn't on my system currently.
[HTC One X] mox123:
it is in your system in the root directory, I won't repeat myself again and again,

/etc/init.d is the folder and / means the root directory (also known as the highest directory in a linux type system)
[HTC One X] jimmy2027:
I think something is not clear... I am also using Tegra 3 device. I rooted, set the es file explorer up to ROOT. I only see the etc folder but no init.d at all!! I have set hidden files to be viewable, but to no avail
[HTC One X] Rycon33:
^^custom ROM and/or kernel supports init.d, plain rooted stock ROM/kernel normally doesn't.
[HTC One X] -juanito-:
what the Permissions ?
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
Set script. No changes are observed.:(
[HTC One X] mox123:
it all depends on what apps you have running, how much mem they are using etc. there has been great improvement over the standard settings, however bear in mind that the sense ui takes up alot of ram as it is, I am working on a way to further improve this if possible at all, for now this is as good as it gets unless you prefer vanilla

make sure it set to execute
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
Solved the problem. It should be in the Root Explorer by pressing the select linux script handler. Sorry for bad English.:)
[HTC One X] jimmy2027:
Where do you find the linux script handler in your Htc One x?
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
There
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
Need to do is add to the first post.
[HTC One X] rayford85:
I don't know if anyone has noticed yet but you need to add this tag to the top line of the script for it to work correctly

#!/system/bin/sh

and why don't you guys skip all this copy & paste business that seems to confuse a bunch of people. just push the file with adb

adb remount

adb push C:\Users\your name here\Desktop\multitaskingxtremextra system/etc/init.d

adb shell

chmod 644 system/etc/init.d/multitaskingxtremextra

adb reboot

I can tell a huge difference. thanks for sharing bro:)
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
#!/system/bin/sh

Yes, I have it looks like this:

:)
[HTC One X] subhani:
i have followed the steps mentioned by mox. im good up until trying to invoke the linux installer thing???

i have read the thread four to five times now...

i have root explorer and es file manager with correct settings and root enabled.

i am on android revolution hd rom v6.0

my device is tegra 3 too

please help
[HTC One X] rotsu:
I see no difference at all. I have followed the steps in the OP. Anyway to tell if the script is actually working? Browser still reloads as well as twitter and other apps as well.
[HTC One X] gibbs1984:
Yeah, where is this Linux handler thingy, can't find it anywhere, I don't get that option when press or long pressing the file?
[HTC One X] mox123:
sorry guys im uploading replacement scripts with #!/system/bin/sh

edit: done thanks rayford85 for that had alot on my mind recently juggling work and life is hard when your other life is xda lol
[HTC One X] milomak:
If you are using root explorer just click the file.
[HTC One X] mox123:
I've updated the main thread with clearer instructions and tips from nubzuri and rayford, script is now working properly as it should and MULTI TASKING IS FANTASTIC now!
[HTC One X] jimmy2027:
I have tried using root explorer instead but still can't find init.d folder.
[HTC One X] mox123:
did you go into /system/etc/init.d
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
5. Just open the file and you can find several options, one you need is 'linux handler', choose that and next select execute option. It will now executed automatically.
[HTC One X] Kriz206:
I've done all exacly how you said how can i check now if it works properly ?

Ps. The worst thing is when someone calls you while you playing game and you lost all of your pfogres cos of application bean killed. And still you have to start it again an go through loading screans.
[HTC One X] mox123:
reboot it and load apps
[HTC One X] Kriz206:
I have extreme extra version and it seam to work. 3 or 4 normal apps works quite nice without refreshing. Also the games do not reboot after a phonecall but when you use browser while playing games i will refresh. So is it means we nead more intensive RAM script to maki it work ?

Edit : While real multitasking I've noticed that we have still some (200 MB) of free RAM. Can you make eaven more extreme script ?
[HTC One X] mox123:
yes I am working on this to utilize full ram usage, bear with me thanks
[HTC One X] Kriz206:
Thanks for your effort.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
are these the default values on 1.29.401.11?

to be honest i found these stock values a lot better than the ones on ARHD 6.0.0 which are causing major stutter to the system
[HTC One X] kryptoner:
Absolutely agree, stock values are better, everything is a lot smoother

Also I notice that the multitasking is way better on stock deodexed Rom than on arhd6, so the stutter maybe because of the extra tweaks that mike has added. There is considerable smoothness difference between arhd and pkmn rom
[HTC One X] mox123:
what are the stock values on ARHD?
[HTC One X] Rycon33:
Just tried and for some reason the values doesn't stick on my phone running coredroid 3.0 on faux kernel. Still stock values.
[HTC One X] mox123:
try setting permissions, also try running in script manager lite and set on autoboot see what happens
[HTC One X] Rycon33:
ok, all is well now after using script manager:)

but as much as possible, personally I don't want to use another app just to make this script work but oh well...

it got me thinking why either my custom rom or custom kernel doesn't readily execute the script, even when permissions were set correctly
[HTC One X] hamdir:
32mb, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80

odd isn't it?

I think for the next update, ill go with stock rooted firmware and tweak things myself
[HTC One X] rayford85:
it should work with out a hitch. as long as you chmod the file. you might want to do the init.d folder as well. I gave them both full permissions (chmod 777)but read write permissions should be ok ( chmod 644) running like a champ here:)
[HTC One X] crescal:
aren't these values equal to stock one? as:

(8192, 10240, 12288, 14336, 16384, 20480)*4/1024 = (32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
is this true? waw im a total noob :D
[HTC One X] crescal:
i just googled the formula :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
lol sorry mike!! :D
[HTC One X] jimmy2027:
I did find etc folder in my root explorer, but no init.d folder is present anywhere inside.
[HTC One X] mox123:
your rom/kernel doesnt support it if no init.d

alternatively you can try to find a boot file somewhere see if you can mod that (something like init.post_boot.sh or something along those lines in etc folder
[HTC One X] mikey0105:
how to download this scripts, everytime i click the attached files, a new window will open and there are some sorts of values..
[HTC One X] konstantin30:
Right mouse button - to download as text file.
[HTC One X] pewpewbangbang:
Wait do we rename even multitaskingextreme.txt to multitasking or multitaskingextreme no extension?
[HTC One X] babadudu:
Using Script Manager, I got error saying

cannot create /........: no such file or directory

for each line of scripts it tries to execute,

tried using root explorer first and setting permission correctly,

found that it isn't working,

i also went into the file to manually change the value per the script, at first the value is saved, but after reboot, it just went back to the original.

I am using Insertcoin 6.4.0 which uses the stock value.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Is this compatible with the One S?

Sent from my One S
[HTC One X] wintermute000:
those of you having trouble can just download system tuner and do it the GUI way.

I'm using the light preset which is a tad more aggressive than the script's default.

bonus is if it borks reboot makes it go away (yeah obviously you can also set it to re-run on boot but best leave that off for awhile till you're sure you're happy).
[HTC One X] dogredwing1:
would this work on other phone running sense 4 roms:confused:
[HTC One X] poggus:
auto killer memory on market do the same, but i'm right it's better to do that without an apps.

I prefer script too !
[HTC One X] mox123:
updated script with new even more aggressive multi tasking
[HTC One X] xbiggyl:
Any drawbacks/side-effects to installing the script? Coz if not then it makes you wonder why doesn't it come with these values (stock)
[HTC One X] mox123:
if you want to do hardcore gaming then its better to stick to stock values, due to the fact that this is how the android system works, its a bit complicated to explain but if you are simply multitasking your mail, browser, messages, dialler, etc. then you can switch between without any hassle.

if you want to do something intensive like gaming then you are better of sticking to stock,

I however do play alot of gaming on my ultimate script which is very aggresive, sometimes I get some lag here or there but nothing that really botheres me.

So I cannot get the values of minfree to change. I have followed all instructions and used the EZ InitD thing linked to earlier. Nothing.

Can anyone help? I am running MCR on my One S. Thanks.
[HTC One X] johnny773:
If anyone is getting errors running "no such file or directory" this is due to blank spaces in your file at the end of filenames.
[HTC One X] mannequin:
same here. tried different roms and ez init.d - no luck, minfree values don't change no matter what.
[HTC One X] mox123:
try post_boot.sh or something like that, add the code (copy paste) it
[HTC One X] Ingenium13:
Doesn't get executed for me either. I even changed permissions to 764. Maybe I should try 775.
[HTC One X] Kun2210:
I gave up on this mod after few hours of trying, edited minfree values manually.
[HTC One X] mox123:
editing them manually wont save them after reboot thats the whole point of this script. what rom are you using.
[HTC One X] mox123:
for those having problems what roms are you using.

sorry guys but everytime i want to open this file it gives me the option to open it as a text, picture, video and etc. So if i choose to open as text it will just let me see the script text and nothing else. Theres no option like linux handler nowhere. Also where and how can i look at to be sure the script really applies?

i edit the file as said without any ending.

i using viper rom 1.0.1 and faux kernel 4 beta 5

help is much appreciated :)
[HTC One X] Babydollll:
Did you rename it from multitasking.txt to JUST multitasking?
[HTC One X] Eambo:
Hi Everyone,

Using ES File Explorer and having similar problems - moved it to init.d just fine, renamed from multitaskingextreme.txt to multitaskingextreme, set permissions to r/w/e all, but when I click on it it's asking to open as text/audio/video. If I hit text it gives me a few programs to open with, but none of them the linux handler.

Any suggestions? Thank you!
[HTC One X] schidddy:
yes of course i did, the m8 over me has exactly the same issue as me..
[HTC One X] death__machine:
I also wasn't able to get the linux handler thing, I restarted my phone and I think the multitasking script got executed on boot. I tested the multitasking by opening twitter, chrome, browser, camera & email. All of them return to the state I left them in! Damn cool! Browsers don't refresh, neither does twitter. Try restarting and see if it works for you.
[HTC One X] jaywhy13:
Thanks for this. I tried it on my One S and I can definitely see some improvement. It's absolutely retarded this whole refresh thing though. Is there any way to tweak it beyond ultimate? I usually am running an average of about 5 or so apps and it's really annoying when the refreshing starts. From my observations, Chrome seems to be first in line to start refreshing... even games refresh. When all this refresh is going on I still have over 180 MB's free.

What's really annoying is that once the refreshes start.. it seems to be like a plague. I had about 6 apps open a while ago (Gmail, Browser, Chrome, Google Reader, Play Store, Settings) then I started noticing refreshes... so I only left the Chrome, Google Reader and Play open, and every now and then Chrome and Reader kept refreshing.. and occasionally Play. This just by switching between them.

Are there other things I need to bear in mind to get my apps being killed less? Is 150 MB free RAM ok or is that pushing the device too much or what?
[HTC One X] sasory:
Thx mate! It's fantastic! All work on my HTC One S!! Use this script - multitaskingxtremextra
[HTC One X] vacsed:
How does HTC's Task Manager fit into all this? Should we disable it or let it automatically load on startup? Does the task manager clean up memory when apps are no longer used or is just there to indicated available memory?
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
It's just there so you can manually task manage so to speak, it will have no impact with the script
[HTC One X] vacsed:
Thanks, I thought that maybe it closes unused tasks by itself, helping to improve multitasking which I guess is done by the OS itself? If it's only purpose is to see which apps are running and to close them manually if wanted, then it will certainly not improve multitasking.
[HTC One X] PC Jona:
so yea like others are saying this doesnt execute.

on axiom s. 1.8
[HTC One X] Blodia:
The script doesn't execute for me either, even though init.d works. Tested this by using EZInit.D's dummy file.

Decided to use MinFree Manager and adopt the numbers from multitaskingxtreme. So far so good.
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
Can you share the settings you used please
[HTC One X] Blodia:
The values are at the first page: 1536,2048,3584,5120,8704,10240

Turning this values in MinFreeManager would be 6mb, 8mb, 14mb, 20mb, 34mb, 40mb
[HTC One X] ykooze:
thanks a lot!

[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
What exactly does this script do? Can I use it on CM10 Alpha 2/3?
[HTC One X] Neryuslu:
mox123, I can not thank you enough for this. I used the multitaskingultimate, and it is awesome. 7 apps open, 2 of those are games, and they open back again how they should, no matter how I switch between them. Also there is still more than 200 MB of RAM free, so I really don't understand why HTC did this to us.

Thank you so very much!
[HTC One X] michiganoao:

Thanks OP for this useful script, however, I still can't make it to works after 2 hours try!

At first, init.d directory does not exists in my One X, so I follow other threads to create it and make it works.

Then I copy your script to init.d folder, and change its permission to be executable. I did make sure the script was run by adding one statement to write something to a text file.

At last, I also change the permission of containing folders to rwx-rwx-rwx (I know it is useless) to make sure your scripts won't work on my machine.

I guess the script did change the minfree values, but somehow it was overwrite/restore again by system?!

Anyone know how to make it works???

Hello guys :)

actually I'm gonna buy a new phone soon so there are 2 phones which seems best for my budget

1- Xperia P

2- Htc sensation

So my question is which one should i buy each have it's own pros and cons. So please help me decide

Suggestions for any other phones in this budget are also welcome :)

Thanks in advanced guys!! :D
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Samsung Galaxy S2

HTC Sensation

Sony Xperia S

Sony Xperia P

That's my personal opinion by rank. The HTC is a better phone especially the XE model. I only rank it under the s2 cause the new ones have NFC and galaxy is thinner in the hand.

[General Questions and Answers] anant_6:
But they are out of my budget.

my budget is around 22000 INR

Yeah i also thought that sensation have better gpu and cpu and it also have card slot.

but xperia p have more ram and 16 gb internal memory

so it's very confusing :(
[General Questions and Answers] KristjanJ:
HTC Sensation pros:

+ Better quality LCD, (S-LCD vs regular LCD)

+ Has MicroSD slot

+ Bluetooth 3.0 (v3.0 vs v2.1)

+ Dual LED flash(Xperia P has one led for flash)

+ 1.2GHz Dualcomm dualcore snapdragon (Xperia P has the 1.0GHz Cortex A9

+ Adreno 220 GPU (Xperia P has the Adreno 205)

+ Bigger Battery (1520mAh vs 1305mAh for the Xperia P)

+ Cheaper ?

+ Updated to Android 4.0 ICS with Sense 3.6, no update announced for the Xperia P

Cons:

- Doesn't have NFC capabilities, unlike the Xperia P

- Doesn't have a HDMI port, only has MHL A/V link

I would go for the HTC Sensation
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Excellent breakdown, and put a 16 gb memory card in it while you're shopping.

You should look at other pointes as well like:

Performance

Easy upgrade

Warranty

Good support form the producer

Usability

This are the points form my point of view that are very important and should be taken more seriously when you buy a android phone.

both phones have 1 year of warranty
