Baked in and uploading now! will post a link in Team Nocturnal OTA thread in 15 minutes or so.

Edit. Taking link down for now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] debarron:
Looks like you left the section that actually changes the minfree values as is from the One X as the case statements are for ville or elite only so it wouldn't change anything for us since our hardware is jet. I had diff'd the V2 mod and the undo script posted and the only differences between the two were the minfree and adj values so I believe that's all that's really needed. Adding all this to the end of our existing script would just duplicate code and only change the adj values.

Edit: Here's the diff output.

Not sure if I understand what this is supposed to do. I did it correctly, and tried loading a video on youtube. Multitasking out of the app and back in, it reloads the video still. Is that not what it's supposed to avoid?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
Thanks bro!!! Good stuff!! :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Art2Fly:
Youtube app will always do that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cobraboy85:
pretty straight forward stuff if you have a good app like root explorer or root browser. added this in literally 30 seconds.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dude2k5:
Had trouble pushing it back, but sent it to my SDcard, then renamed the old one, pasted, changed permissions, and boom, worked. Multitasking seems much better now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] HeckNoTechnO:
I aways have trouble pushing files or running "adb remount" but you can reboot into TWRP recovery and mount system and push that way too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
Wow didn't know Calk moved over to ATT....

Saw some of his posts talking about it being likely related to the GPU...and said it was nothing to do with Sense....

While I'd prefer him over here, least doing work for the att OneX will transfer here easily! :)

Can it be made into a flashable zip?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbermi:
nothing against you, more a rant in general, seems the point of learning is lost in xda, today.

...but it could be done but would require some creative scripting since each ROM is different, but why not try to do it yourself? or wait for mikey to bake into meanROM since he updates it almost daily, lately.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firmbiz94:
If someone could give me a little help doing this right from my phone using root explorer or astro I'dgive it a shot..scrosler has a zip for this mod over on the hox forum but it didn't play nice with my phone
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
I would wait to hear some more feedback. Nobody has posted before-after results. This may not even work for our device as another poster in this thread pointed out.

Seems Kernel Source is the major thing that's going to help solve this memory problem.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kidromulous:
To make it easy using Tapatalk copy his entire post and paste at the end of the aforementioned file. You can navigate to system/etc with a root explorer and find the file there. (I used es file explorers text editor.) Carefully delete his words at beginning and end (the instructions parts) save file profit. I don't know what before after results would be but it works just fine as far as I can tell.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robbie_G:
I don't fully understand this, but is what you're saying is the OP won't improve multitasking the way it is right now?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Art2Fly:
Could have been placebo. I did just copy and paste the values changed in the one x release, but maybe those don't work with the phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EarlyMon:
Those mods won't work with all roms or other mods. Freeza, as one example, runs processes to overwrite oom adj and minfree values on the fly, changing depending on whether the screen is on or off. (See Freeza's mod thread for info about turning that off.)

Most adjustments like this seem to do some good. Fwiw, I don't think that user available ram is the same between the S4 and T3 One X.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nicholaaaas:
i just use ram manager pro. also can change vm heap size in there
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
You should probably edit the op or have the thread closed since you dont know if this mod works or not.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kidromulous:
Well ty for trying hopefully we get more details. People can be smug but I appreciate the effort in trying to resolve the problem. Thanks button hit anyway
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
Calk was talkin about the S4 OneX btw....there's a few of his posts that comment on this more detailed and thinking its why Sammy went with 2Gb Ram with the Qualcomm SoC....needs to compare the SGS3 S4 variant to his findings to be sure though and see if the allocation is a Qualcomm thing or if its how HTC is handling it...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ausch30:
Thank you for the effort Art2Fly. I did the mod earlier today and from my testing it hasn't changed anything. When using the multitask button (or for me long press on home because I'm running Fresh Rom) everything re-loads when I go back into the app. I tried different apps like a couple browsers, Pulse, ES file explorer, messages, people, etc., and they all reloaded. I hit thanks anyway, just for the effort. Hopefully we can get this working at some point.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EarlyMon:
Ja wohl, never a doubt that it was targeted for the S4 (as in aces to the OP and Calk), but with the crossover audiences on the two devices, just wanted to toss that out there - my bad for sounding like a ninny instead of clarifying that one.

I missed his comments on the SGS3 change in allocation, wished I'd seen them - I noted the same in another venue. It certainly looks like the HD screen is taking more ram for gpu as gpu ram sharing is a hallmark of the Qualcomm SoCs. That said, I've seen others post multitasking issues with the SGS3, so I attribute it all to new phones, new issues, root and XDA-published mods save the day, alert the media.

BTW, for those running V6 SuperCharger, comment out the oom adjust line (the one that echos values to the adj file) in this mod, or you'll get that one instead of the V6-calculated one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
Haha nicely said. Lol

Now multi tasking problems with 2Gb ram......that's a fail there. Haha
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kevinrocksman:
Just an idea but could the OP make a "poll" on (who can actually see if it helps and who it doesnt)

Has this affected your multitasking capabilities at all?

1. Seems better

2. Same

3. Worse

Going to try this on my One X. Is it all just the same as in the instructions for me also?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] il Duce:
Moved to general as this is not development.

Fyi forward those trying this, those values in the postboot no longer affect the system. These values need to be modified directly in the framework files.

:(

I think it's htc specific but who knows might be ics specific.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flex360:
it is android specific

even jelly bean reloads apps. so the only thing we can blame htc for is making sense 4 hog so much memory

the reason why it works better on aosp is because it has a smaller ram footprint
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theoreticaljerk:
Getting ready for a cross-US trip next month and just noticed something with my GNex vs my 4S.

On my 4S attached to my 1A cig lighter charger from Belkin, I am able to charge the batter while navigating with GPS and screen on. This is using actual navigation, not the built in stuff for iOS5 and earlier.

I simply assumed the same would be true of my GNex but I noticed today that if I am using Google Nav with the screen on and connected to the same 1A Belkin charger, I lose about 1% every 20 minutes or so from my brief testing.

It doesn't appear to be overheating as the charging lights and symbols on the phone continue to show charging and the phone isn't all that hot. It's also not been using for any really long trips yet so it hasn't had a lot of time to get super hot if it's going to.

Just curious if this is common for the GNex while running only GPS with screen on.

I did some searching but the other complaints I found involved people also streaming music while using GPS nav.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
People have reported this, and it makes sense if you're on a 1A charger, especially if you have a Verizon model connected to LTE. This is similar to the complaints that people can't charge on a 500mA USB 2.0 port while tethering LTE.

I personally don't notice it draining when I'm listening to music (stored, not streaming) and Navigating, although it's usually on trips of 45min at most and I have a GSM model. My battery seems to just hold or barely charge. I'm not sure of the exact output of my charger though. It's an AT&T branded accessory with a main cable, and a second full-sized USB port.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luftrofl:
Yup, normal for the LTE models. It was actually one of the biggest complaints when it was initially released. Turn off LTE while using navigation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I believe that charge is 1a shared.

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

the next nexus needs an IR blaster. think of all the diabolical fun!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gadgetgaz:
I haven't tried it on my Galaxy Nexus but his was certainly the same on my older Nexus S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neera:
Verizon Nexus here and I have no problems in this regard.

I usually stream Pandora while using Google Maps Navigation and have a little speaker plugged into the USB port on the charger and it still charges the phone's battery. :)

LTE is on as well. Never turn it off.

Using the "MicroUSB Dual Vehicle Power Charger w/USB port" charger from Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kidd_Funkadelic:
Use Battery Monitor Widget and see if it says "AC" or "USB" when it's charging. You want to see AC or it won't be pulling enough juice. If you see USB, try a different cable. You can also force fast charging with the proper kernel. I use Franco, which has an option for it. That alone didn't seem to help, but I bought the Fast Charge app, which seemed to do the trick.

I just went through this myself on a 2 week motorcycle trip. I used a 3rd party GPS app the entire time, screen on, and streaming music. I had LTE on and I believe as long as my screen was set at around 65% or less I never had an issue.

So, yes it can be done. You just need to figure out the right setup. I did some research before my trip and from what I read, not all USB cables are the same. On my bike I had a low-profile dual USB charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alch3mi5t:
90% is the USB cable.

It happens on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 with the default Samsung USB charger, when I connect it to my laptop. Then, if I browse on Internet with the tablet, my battery drains faster than charge, even if connected to the laptop with the USB.

The key is to discover if there is the USB or calbe problem with A output.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theoreticaljerk:
Sure enough, it was going to USB on the car charger. I unplugged the phone and went in the Franco Kernal Config and enabled USB Fast Charge. Plugged it back in and it recognized as AC and true enough, it charged my phone while using Nav so YAY!

Only problem I'm having is that on any reboot, even though it is still checked in the Franco Config, I have to uncheck USB Fast Charge and recheck it before plugging it into the charger for it to not go back to USB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kidd_Funkadelic:
Not sure why it's needed, but after I bought this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incredicontrol.fastchargewidget

I only needed to toggle the widget to fast once, and then my problems went away. Worth a few pennies prior to the trip...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] videian:
I boggles the mind why this is set up this way in stock form..

why??

BTW to the OP, I just switched from a 4S, also had a 1amp charger that did the same as yours, that same charger on the Nexus won't charge the battery with GSM model. It drains about 3-5 % over around an hour commute, more if the sun is directly on it and it gets hot.

Still, why does it seem to force a .5 amp charge when the capability is there for more??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theoreticaljerk:
This is annoying that you have to grab up a custom kernel to do this. With JB I'm quite happy with the way the phone is stock and non-rooted but I guess I'm going to have to root and throw on a custom kernel after all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
If you like to solder cables, you can mod your car charger to register as a AC charger.

Give me a second, I'll find the thread.

[General Questions and Answers] Califoryan:
I've always been a huge fan of the Neutrino Roms. My favorite this far is 2.7GT. That rom ran superbly for me... The way the phone should've been. 2.8GT gave me a couple issues here and there. I'm a few whiskies in right now, so I'm having issues with memory recall, but it's missing some things. Motorola's official ICS comes out in a few days, so I'm ecstatic about that.

[HTC One X] BenPope:
That was a nice objective comparison, thanks.

With regards to updates, Apple have produced 5 phones in 5 years, it's easier for them to produce updates for longer. I think HTC are going to be producing fewer phones now, maybe that will help.

You'll find the community here will create updates for a while, I think the One X is going to have a large, active community for quite some time.

Personally I don't have the overheating problems that some do, been using the phone for an hour and it's barely warmer than the back of my hand.
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

Just a couple of things I picked up on:

You can add a widget (there a several of them supplied by HTC which are just buttons essentially) which will allow to switch flight mode with one button press. There is also a profile button which will lot you switch to silent or vibrate mode easily as well.

Regards

Phil
[HTC One X] death__machine:
You're right, it is easier for Apple to get out updates more than HTC or others but it is something I'll miss i.e Official Support

But then we have awesome devs here so all is good :D
[HTC One X] death__machine:
Hey Phil,

I know about those widgets, I'm using them. Still switching to Airplane mode is slower i.e the time it takes for all connections to go off is slower vs airplane mode on iOS (or atleast what iOS shows)

And regarding the widget for silent mode, I'm using that too :). Just nothing beats a hardware button to put your phone on silent mode.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
We can using the volume keys I know it's not the same but technically near enough, it is good though I've got the same button on the iPad and although useless for that device pretty cool you can switch quickly.

But plenty of widgets available to achieve the desired result.

Good write up on both OS's. Both have their pros and cons and it's good to see no fanboy bashing of either device.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
thank you for the senseful and nag free comments
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
Thanks for that honest and fair report.

Just picking up on your comment regarding Google compressing image backups.

I recommend getting dropbox that will automatically backup your photos without any compression or alteration whatsoever.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
You can customise till you drop on Android devices. For example with a custom rom like viperX, you can customise the buttons for example long press home and you can assign an action or even launch an app, or just use apex launcher or nova launcher no root needed for these and you can apply gestures, so swiping up can open the music app. I find these gestures very useful for my commonly used actions, I've got swipe down to show me battery, swipe up to open my music, etc and you can even put gestures on the dock icons.

That will give you back some functionality you had with the double tap home button on iOS.
[HTC One X] 1phuong:
I think if a person is kind of more than an casual user - want to study how to root, install custom staff..., would love android more. If he just picks a phone from store, then use it, better to take iphone
[HTC One X] death__machine:
Thank guys. I was going for a unbiased opinion.

@nikzdhd

Yea the silent button works as a orientation lock for the iPad so its damn handy.

I'll try to get some gestures running soon, there was a similar thing on iOS after JBing it, called Activator. My Android Journey has just begun haha xD

@hamdir

Anything about the One X has to be 'sense'ful imo ;)

I'm not the type to bash on this device without any reason. I love the One X. Despite the haptic feedback noise and stuck pixel I'm not that keen on getting it exchanged.

@stuart001

Dropbox will backup my pics with the same quality, that I've seen but I was talking about how the Photos I snapped with my phone and assigned to a contact get converted or compressed when synced with Google Contacts.

@1phuong

You're right about picking an iPhone if you're not going to mess around with it and want out of the box functionality. Thats why I even recommend iPhone over Android phones to people who aren't that keen on f***ing around with custom roms and kernels to get more out of their device :).i.e if they're not geeks :P

However there are still loads of people who are geeks but go for iPhones either because of their fanboyism or their ignorance to how cool Android is.

Beyond a point there isn't much you can do in iOS but Android is just awesome. There's loads more of messing around I have yet to do. Undervolting is one of them xD.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
really awesome given that you dont even use this device for its gaming power even!

i always have trouble with iOS people and that is they fail to see the bright side and just nag about the lack or imperfections of the things they loved the most on iOS

and i tell them if you want it exactly like iOS why did u even switch..
[HTC One X] tkolev:
There is a reason behind not being able to download an app to your pc and then sync it to your phone. The compatibility filtering is done by the play store, so if you have one phone with hw keyboard and one without hw keyboard you'll be able to install an app which requires hw keyboard (or specific screen size, or whatever) on both phones regardless of their compatibility. If you have filtering on the pc, then you'll have to have an Android iTunes equivalent and noone wants that, right :) ?
[HTC One X] death__machine:
Well the main problem with most 'iOS people' lol xD is that they're the type to believe that Apple cannot make a mistake whatsoever and "It is the best". Wrong that attitude is. Its not only iPhones, its these Apple Fanboys in general. There are these rich pricks who who'll go get a 15" MacBook Pro to do what? Surf the web, make word docs and ppts max.

On the other hand if a person into video/graphics editing comes and asks me if an MBP is good, I give them a go ahead because of the kickass softwares that OSX has for them such as FCP etc.

Coming back to iDevices, 4S was horrible upgrade. Old design with a new camera, processor and a beta voice assistant, no thanks.

They're running out of innovations imo. They shoved a retina display for their new iPad and even the MacBooks. Wtf really? I had no problem whatsoever with the iPad 2 display(used a friends iPad 2 quite a bit). It was gorgeous imo, they didn't need to make it retina. Same goes for the MBP, didn't have a problem with that display either. Maybe its the lack of Steve Jobs but Apple has failed to impress me lately. iOS6 doesn't seem that great to me.

HTC really upped them by coming out with this beautiful design that is the One x :). They should have put prettier packaging though xP
[HTC One X] death__machine:
That makes a lot of sense. Thank you. But they still should give an option to custom filter out a .apk from the online play store maybe?

I'll tell you why I'm stressing on this. I wanted to download this game which was around 500mb in size and I didn't have wifi then, all I had was a 2G plan on my phone and access to internet via ethernet. Downloading off 2G would have taken ages and 3G consumption would have set me back by quite some money. It made sense to get the .apk from the comp and then transfer it but I couldn't.
[HTC One X] CoSaWa:
You could have always used internet pass through?
[HTC One X] realunited123:
No app will ever be 500 MB :D What you need to do is download that app (around 10-15 MB) and it will download data that goes into SDcard. You can download that data from PC too if you know what to search ;)
