high ram

After installing v7.5 it was good. I have greenified apps. And went well.

After being busy of something, I just noticed that my phone's ram is really high. It drops at 699-720mb ram.

Before it was around 500+ only.

Do I hve to flash boeffla? To improve ram? And does this kernel really improves ram? Lastly, what kernel is good to use with this rom, is it boeffla onl?

TIA
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Toadyg:
For me the stock repacked kernel is just fine, so I don't bother with Boeffla. I normally get around 500-550 MB used, and around 380-450 MB after hitting the Clear button. I am on 7.6 but it was the same on 7.5.

Hello Neat Rom Family,

I'm facing some battery drain and I'm confused about it, need your opinion.. :)

up to neat 7.5 I han no problems at all, 4-5h SOT and 1% drain overnight with wi-fi and data off.

flashed 7.6 (tried both dirthy and clean install) and started having 3 hrs SOT or less, 6-7% overnight drain.

I clean installed again 7.5, situation is better, but still drainig.

I will post BBS datas after a full battery cycle but I can say this issue is not much related with battery getting old.. I've installed neat aosp, restored same apps I had on 7.5 and 4-5 hrs SOT are back as well as 0% overnight battery drain.

did anyone faced something similar? which tests can I do to find out the reason for that?

thank you!

OK so I'm the only one who have his problem with stock firmware I have a better management of the battery, hope for a next release can fix the problem

No problems here - 7.6 battery drain is same as 7.5 :confused:

Do use boelfa kernel? And lite version of the Rom ?

Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Toadyg:
I use stock repacked kernel, lite version of ROM, no bloatware, most things greenified, also Juice Defender to turn off data & wi-fi when screen is off. For me it's the best combination I've tried, but it would probably be better/worse with different apps. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nicola1989:
I will try without bloat were

ART

Can any one tell me please is it possible switch to ART from dalvic on this ROM is it stable?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Spannaa:
No, it's not possible since ART was only introduced in KitKat (4.4) roms and this is JellyBean (4.3)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jamespanget19:
Really? What did you do? Its awesome to have that so low ram. Please tell me
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Toadyg:
As I mentioned a few posts back: I use stock repacked kernel, lite version of ROM, no bloatware, most things greenified (all except apps I need notifications from), also Juice Defender to turn off data & wi-fi when screen is off. For me it's the best combination I've tried.

Tarzan11 was achieving even better than that a while ago , the last time this RAM conversation came up (it is a regular topic!) But I really don't think it matters as long as everything runs happily and you have no lags. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jamespanget19:
Well thats very nice. If you dont mind, I would like to know or to gimme the screenshots of what you're greenifying and also your menuscreen in order for me to see whats app you have chosen in installing the rom.

That would be a great help to me 'coz I'm experiencing lagginess on my phone. Whenever I open up an app it would take about 1-3 seconds for it to open.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
also go in developer option and try reducing background processes from standard to 4, it should help.

;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Toadyg:
I don't want to seem unhelpful mate but I don't really have time - that is a LOT of screenshots! In any case your app requirements will be different to mine, so you need to find the best combination of settings for your own list of apps. Briefly, I didn't install any of the Samsung bloat, or the Google bloat, I use Chomp SMS and AquaMail and Rocket music player, and I have disabled the stock apps (and Gmail) using App Quarantine. I use Nova launcher and have disabled TouchWiz Home using App Quarantine. My free RAM has been roughly the same on all versions of Neat since 5.4 (the first I tried), except for one version a while ago where RAM usage was higher, but I'm afraid I can't remember which version. It still wasn't high enough to cause lags though. I hope this helps, but I think config is a very personal thing with lots of variables and you won't necessarily get the same results by trying to replicate someone else's settings. :)

Sorry but just wanted to mention that juice defender was for gingerbread and was just moving up to honeycomb when the dev stopped his development in 15 January 2012. It could be useful to look for other options like better wifi on/off. If your happy with juice defender then keep with it :)

I first installed it on Jelly Bean and it more than doubled my battery time. Very happy with it, but of course I'm open to any suggestions if there is something better [emoji3]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Michael_Android:
Can somebody tell me the differences between stock and custom kernels? I care about daily use, not overclock.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schetz:
Honestly,it would be best to test it yourself due to the fact it works different on each device and everyone has different needs..

I used boeffla because it gave great battery life combined with brilliant sound..others had more smooth experience with stock repacked,you see where this is going ;):)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
What settings do you use for sound on boeffla? Do u use any other software with boeffla to enhance sound quality? I have used boeffla many times before, but I always found the sound quality of poweramp with boeffla sub par to the sound quality of poweramp with stock kernel sound engine. Maybe I am doing something wrong with the config?? please advice.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schetz:
Used archis audiofile settings,brilliantly done by justarchi ..

I can imagine using eq with poweramp with boeflla sound settings could interfere and make contra effect,so I used apollo music player..

Honestly,hassle free setup with marvelous sound :good:

Can i downgrade to NeatROM v4.8 (4.1.2) directly from NeatROM v7.5 (4.3),or i must first flash stock samsung 4.1.2. I wan to try 4.1.2. Thanks

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kovacs-m:
Yes, please don't forget a nandroid backup before doing anything
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nujke71:
for now it seems faster and smoother,happy so far
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marenp:
You're right :) tried also, but one question. Why you downgraded NeatROM at all?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nujke71:
because i read that 4.1.2 is smoother and better work than 4.3, and for now it seems that way (in my opinion),I will use it more, and if it turns out worse easy to get back to 4.3,as i said for now it is smoother and faster than 4.3 (for me)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
I have completely forgotten using 4.1.2! So, please answer these questions for me. 4.1.2 does not have transparent status bar right? on ur daily use, is there any feature or app on 4.3 that u r missing on 4.1.2?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nujke71:
4.1.2 does not have transparent status bar,but it is for my girlfriend and she is not too demanding and has everything she need (camera,calls,sms,internet and some applications for girls), but as I watched it seems to me that is not miss anything special from 4.3 (It all depends what is you needs, i am not to demanding too).

Only if someone knows is there stock volume mod for 4.1.2 like it has for 4.3 (NeatRom4.3StockVolMod)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
Hello All, I downgraded from v7.6 to v4.8 to test something, and now I have rolled back to v7.6 using my nandroid backup. The problem is that baseband version got changed to that of v4.8. So my question is, was the baseband version of v7.6 XXUGND5?? If yes, where can I download only the modem? I am not able to find it in NeatRom Update modems list. Please help.

Update - Just checked the release log. It is XXUGND1 (I wonder why it is not XXUGND5?!?!?). Found this modem in the modems list. Sorry to bother guys.

After using this ROM for around 2 weeks, I felt the phone started to lag a bit. For ex while swiping thru drawer pages, or home pages. Ram usage always stayed around 650-700mb. Even if the cache was cleared, the ram would still be above 620-630mb. At this point I thought of something stupid and uninstalled TW launcher. I am glad i did! Been using Nova launcher prime and never been happier. The ram usage under normal load stays around 530-550mb. And when the cache is cleared, the usage falls down to 450mb!! The phone is faster than ever, no lag whatsoever.

Along with TW Launcher, I did uninstall a lot of other unused Sammy apps.

samsung account

samsung sbrowser sync adapter

weather widget

weather widget main

internet 4.3 (stock browser)

I am not sure what adverse impact uninstalling these apps have, but at least for now I havent faced any problems. fingers crossed. Have used the phone for 3 days now after uninstalling, and have absolutely no problems.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] memphisa:
I like your use of the word "it seems". Everyone goes for what works for them be it 4.01, 4.1.2 or 4.2.2, 4.3 or 4.4.2, 4.4.3 or now 4.4.4. To some people (including me) version 4.1.2 belongs to the ancient !!. I can never will prefer the telegraph over the internet. Stick with what works for you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Toadyg:
I don't think you can really compare the differences between 4.1.2 and 4.3 to the differences between telegraph and the Internet mate - many people simply wouldn't notice any functional difference during everyday use ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
One major difference in terms of performance between 4.0 and (4.1/4.3) is the speed at which samsung stock dialer and contacts open when they are opened for the first time. I dont know what the sammy developers did in 4.1/4.3, but the stock dialer and contacts are simply messed up. I hate to wait 2-3 secs everytime for them to open. And for people who make calls at a frequency of every 15-20 minutes, this is a major annoyance!! Cos in 15-20 mins the apps would have gone from the cache and it would be like opening the app for the first time!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
give a try to this one, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.modoohut.dialer&hl=it

much faster than the stock one :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
That is exactly what I am using now!!! :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
:) so who cares about sammy's craps?

this one + replacing TW with nova prime makes the difference :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
True, but only sad part is that I paid a premium for the phone only to realize later that I need to pay again even for basic apps!! TBH, I love both dialer/contacts and TW launcher just as is - if it wasnt for the speed/perfo, i wouldnt have shell out extra penny on 3rd party apps! :( just my opinion though

Hey guys, I have a bit of an off-topic question.

I'm currently happily running NeatRom AOSP v6, but the vacation is coming up and I may need to use the dock to output HDMI to a TV. For this I need a Samsung-based ROM. I'd like to ask if there is a way to have both roms (Samsung-based NeatROM and AOSP) installed in different partitions and if there is a way to select which rom to boot (at startup or at shutdown). The most important thing is - can both ROMs successfully share the same /data partition (have the same apps in both)?

I'm not sure how multiboot/multirom works on Android, but I'd like to see where to start learning (I guess I need a special kernel and also a new /system partition). Any pointers would be helpful.

(P.S. Plan B is to restore a Nandroid backup of a samsung rom and use it only when I need TV out, but I would need time to backup my main ROM and time to restore the secondary ROM, and space on the external SD to store two nandroid backups).

Hi [MENTION=3690986]_Sale_[/MENTION]

I've been a couple of days on Archiport beta and I found it more stable than what I expected, will you consider to release a stock neat on that base in future?

btw, I've tried and enjoyed it but nothing feels like being at home, so I happily came home again!

yours is magic mate. :good: :good:

ArchiPort Beta 1 seems pretty stable to me (and so was Preview 5 when de-bloated).

It definitely looks like a candidate for the NeatROM treatment :good:

Hi All, Is anyone using swiftkey 5.0 with Neat v7.6 here? I have been using swiftkey for ages now and I simply love this keyboard, but I am starting to feel that everything good eventually does come to an end - as the saying goes!! Is anyone experiencing swiftkey eating up a lot of battery? I have observed this problem for quite a few days now. Using swiftkey, if I chat with friends for a few hours, the battery drains quite fast. When I check battery stats, it shows swiftkey one or 2 slots below screen time. This never happened on older vrsions. Killing swiftkey keyboard from advance task killer releases around 30mb of RAM!!! I am stating to feel that the new swiftkey has so many option that it is starting to become very taxing on cpu for older phones. I do not have any battery drain problems otherwise. If I use sammy keyboard or google keyboard, the battery doesnt drain. Can anyone please confirm or advice how I could circumvent this problem?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RCT1:
I feel the same thing, thats why i've edited my classification to one star. I've payed the APP because it was the best keyboard, no anymore.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
On an average how many minutes do you type per day? I think the more you type, the higher the drain. I am now using Kii Keyboard for the past 3 days. Have done a lot of testing among sammy keyboard, kii and swiftkey now. I am pretty sure swiftkey consumes more battery for the same amount of usage. No doubt the features in swiftkey are outstanding and the predictive text is out of this world, but the performance overhead it causes is simply not acceptable for people who type a lot.
