[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:

[Defy Android Development] marhensa:

disabling HWA on MB525 build is not possible yet.

both on Quarx build and Epsylon3.
[Defy Android Development] aribis:
A nifty trick in Epsy ROM...just noticed that System setting has a link to enable or disable screenshot from bootmenu...havnt seen that before!

Also i would like to add phone to stay on memory with Epsy build...can anyone redirect me to a how-to on that please?

Another one is How do i change the baseband version...its shown as EPU93_U_00.60.00 now...even after chaging baseband from Defy Parts...this was not on my stock...

which files are related to that without flashing any baseband files for individual countries...more importantly...will that help if i change baseband? what happens is that at times i am losing data connection and whatever(data/airplane on/off) i do i cannot get it back up without a reboot...any suggestions?
[Defy Android Development] bbllaazzee:
I disabled HWA for known Apps that is used in less frequency like (Email, GMail, Settings, FM Radio, Apollo ...) Now have more RAM remaining, also checked the Memory purging in Performance section. Now have around 150MB free and it is smoother than ever.

Looks like even if we move the App icon in the Screens, the App is Cached (shown in Cached Processes), not sure if this can be taken care in the ROM - Quarx?
[Defy Android Development] ppero196:
Locking Phone and Messaging in RAM should be made optional option. I figured out that apps run slower with those two locked in there.

Regarding baseband...reflash
[Defy Android Development] Sivaguru:
Yes its not working.

I am using Eppy's build
[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
Did that, like @marhensa said, it didn't work..... I tried all that you said: V6, HWA disabling, even limited process to 3... Whatever i do, i always get kernel panic when i use chrome/firefox and facebook on multitasking. I'm going to try another settings on v6, but it would be perfect if Quarx can review the memory management in ROM (A long time ago, i was afraid about this, JB is a modern android OS for modern hardware and it couldn't function perfectly in old hardware like our defy, but our devs make the best that they can about it)
[Defy Android Development] aribis:
Re: [JB] CM10 Android 4.1.1 for the Defy(+)

That's a good ideas if just like HWA we have a list of installed apps that can be selected to stay on memory for as long as we want...should make things easier...

and what do you mean by reflash? going back to stock and then onto CM10? But question is how did it change in the first place if not from the baseband selector inbuilt in the ROM? That should cause the same error i think!

also i think the secret of Epsy ROM having more free memory is the phone app not locked in memory...that apart Epsy roms always work faster and zippier on green defy!

Battery drain on 4th july is very high. The keyboard doesn't have continuous capitals in the messaging app and sadly the phones more sluggish then the awesome 2nd build ;(

Anyone else feel that way?
[Defy Android Development] ppero196:
4th July?!!! :D

It's sluggish because of Phone and Messaging app being locked in RAM, so amount of available RAM is decreased.

To get full capitals double press (fast) the shift key.
[Defy Android Development] jojimail:
Android is designed to use maximum ram. If RAM is not almost full then android becomes slow as every app has to be loaded from start.

[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Switch the CPU governor from boosted to ondemand or smartass2. That resulted in a big performance boost for me on the 4th of August MB526 build. Not sure if the story about boosted being somewhat broken in the latest builds or not, but just sharing my experience.

I know that boostedassv2 was included by Quarx, Epsylon, Maniac103 and FuZZ in all their builds from the first week those DroidX governors showed up in the DEFY forums... And haven't noticed any changes done in the githubs lately.

Not of much importance, really. Just try, it might boost your phone as it did mine!

This is freaking awesome!!!!!

1) Installed 08/04 nightly by wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache.

2) Flashed gapps-signed.zip, DroidXgoverners.zip, beats7.2.zip through CWM.

3) After boot installed this launcher as a system app. This is same as the stock jelly bean launcher but it feels much better.

4) Installed HOLO launcher HD. This is lot better, smooth and snappier than the stock launcher and has all the features of the jelly bean launcher. Also it has many customizations. In the step 3) i installed new stock launcher apk because for me HOLO launcher was FCing after reboot when default launcher (one that comes with the nightly) was there.

5) Disable HWA for all apps.

6) install V6 supercharger. But in this what i have observed is that patching services.jar is actually making my launcher laggy (May be its only me). so skipped patching services.jar

7) Selected smartassV2 in system settings>performance>processor>CPU governer.

8) reboot in bootmenu.

9) In bootmenu, in CPU settings selected Enable all modules, Governer>boosted

vsel settings

300 Mhz > 17

600 Mhz > 32

1000 Mhz > 52

1300 Mhz > 67

Made + iosched_sio 1, save and reboot.

Now i have perfect deep sleep and around 1% battery consumption per hour when idle.

Now my defy+ feels faster than ever before. Much better than CM9. After disabling the HWA my free ram is almost around 200MB all the time. Even if i have 10 apps running its around 150MB. :laugh::laugh::highfive::highfive:

Battery was at 96%. Then 7 hours of deep sleep and 1 hr of use and then the screenshots were taken.

In V6 use option 16 to "Bulletproof" apps of your choice.

Hm strange, just 'recycle' a services.jar from a previous build. According to the dev:

Usually you can reuse it.

But if there are extensive services.jar changes and the phone don't boot, it probably means you need to patch the new one lol​

[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
i didnt mean how i can do it, i meant what setting/code prevents the system from killing the app in an oom situation? :)

umm, the new script (update9-rc11-test4) leads you to a webapp, which patches your services.jar if you upload it. after that, you only have to copy the patched one and chown 0.0 and chmod 644. ive done it, doesnt take more than 2 minutes.

[Defy Android Development] minomarimat:
At first I was like, "I should try this out!"

but then I saw, you were using a Defy+. :))

Is this method applicable to Defy? From the DroidXGovernors alone, i wasn't sure if it can also be flashed to Defy. Most of the posts I saw were about Defy+.
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
LOL :D but still, it does get killed when it has the value -17, its not a proof.

anyway, i found out that theres no way to change oom priority for an app, because its dynamic.

theres one way though, to include the process name in an .xml (forgot the name), but that cannot be changed after the rom has been flashed, so... :/
[Defy Android Development] mihovil13:
Apex launcher is way better than Holo Launcher.

It takes less ram, and with hwa it's way snappier.

Why 1300 - 67?

1100 is enough for Defy to run smoothly, but 67 vsels is not good for your CPU!
[Defy Android Development] pepcisko:
generally in Linux, /proc/[pid]/oom_adj of -17 (OOM_DISABLE) tells the oom killer NOT TO INCLUDE the process for killing. Period.

Since the value is dynamic, you can use cron to automate setting the value, I believe supercharger is doing this every 30 seconds or so.
[Defy Android Development] dkn00b:
Latest Eppys build 06/08 lags a lot at first boot, after reboot it just gets stuck in boot loop. Tried it twice but it's the same issue.

Have alos done from fressh install (going through flashing the stock sbf and doing all the relevant stuff). Not sure what causes it, but going to stick to the 26/7 build for now.

That works best for me.
[Defy Android Development] klovan200:
My instruction "How to enable deep sleep on MB525":

1. Clean install Epsy (Maybe work with Quarx too) latest ROM + gapps (full wipe)

2. Reboot in bootmenu

3. In CPU settings change governer to smartass

4. Save it + reboot in bootmenu again

5. In CPU settings enable function Enable all modules + change iosched_sio to 1

6. Save it + reboot system normaly

7. Check it via CPU Spy!

+ change speed and vsels if you want (300/600/1200 MHz with 17/32/63 Vsel works fine!)

+ disable HWA in these APLICATIONS if you want (List all system applications what do not need HWA.)

Your MB525 is now better and smoother! ;)
[Defy Android Development] paulle:
that's strange Eppys build 06/08 is working fine here (defy green lens). maybe it's worth a try : wipe cache wipe dalvik and flash the build otherwise.
[Defy Android Development] minomarimat:
Questions:

-so I do not need to flash any governor zip file?

-I'm already using Epsy's latest build + gapps. Do I really need to do a full wipe, or will cache+dalvik wipe be enough to do the job?

-is this for Green lens only (I saw that you're using a green lens defy)? I'm using a red lense, but opted to install the defy build(s) instead of the defy+. Battery fix zip file is a hassle.

-am i asking too many questions? XD
[Defy Android Development] AnTerNoZ:
- no it's not needed flash other gov.

-it's better for every custom ROM to install it clean, but not really recommend.

[Defy Android Development] G00fY2:
I commented the single steps inside the quotation.

I think nearly all your speed improvments are because of overclocking. A alredy have deep sleep, after normal installation. The rest you described has not much sense.

What do you want from me.:confused: You don't believe what I said about govoernors? (sorry if I missunderstood you at this point)

Also my post wasn't just about govoernors. Also I'm quiet sure that you can't disable HWA at the moment. I'm not in full rage. But it makes me a bit sad, when I see people writing big textes about pseudo improvements. Ad it seems that many people believe this (otherwise I don't know why they press "Thanks"). And after one of this post with pseudo tips, there are 50 new posts with questions about this. I'm a bit angry that every day there are new posts like this...

I you wish to let these people know that there is no need to flash or install any tweaks and keep writing or asking about it.

hardware button rebinding is already on latest epsylon jb.

i change menu button into quick multitasking button.

and the menu button is app driven inside app (you know, the 3 dot menu button)

until HWA is could be controlled,

i consider myself this rom is perfect for daily use.

since video recording could be done in LG Camera :)

Well problem is (with my Defy+), that LG camera is not working properly - when I record, everything seems fine, but after end of recording and ending sound I can see that time is still going (like I didnt stop it before). And video doesnt show in gallery, so it didnt record.
[Defy Android Development] vaibhav palande:

AwesomeBeats doesnt work at all... As far as i have tested AwesomeBeats, its only the changes in names which display when u open ur DSP manager... just Beats™ is displayed in every setting in DSP manager... i tried both before and after installing AwesomeBeats and tweaked the DSP manager... Absolutely NO difference in sound quality.. DSP manager worked the same way as it was before installation of AwesomeBeats...

BUT BEATS 7.2 WORKS GREAT.. HUGE DIFFERENCE IN AUDIO QUALITY.. IT DOESNT ADD LOUDNESS TO MUSIC BUT ITS A PURE AUDIO QUALITY IMPROVEMENT. GR8 BASS..

Nope, it's just an equalizer which boosts especially Bass.

If you want real audio quality, enable Direct Volume Control in PowerAmp and/or get a device with a good Wolfson DAC (SGS3) in combination with VooDoo app. This makes the real difference. Unfortunately, our Defy lacks such a DAC.
