Re: Kindle fire hd 8.9 tweaks

Pimp is easy and it tells me success init.d supported.

Boot animation is gone after tweak although still image of Kindle Fire shows up, scare me.

Antutu goes down from 9989 to 9229.

I am using Apex launcher I still feel lag but not sure whether improve a little bit.

Re: Kindle fire hd 8.9 tweaks

But, do you set fine the permission of the init.d tweaks, this have to give you a best perfomance, score sometimes lie, a kindle fire hd 7" user had the same"problem" he says it run smoother but it isnt slow, it decreased score because my z tweaks have interactive governors in both cores, this may give all less score but, is better battery saving that performance, change interactive words for performance in ztweaks and use antutu and you will have an higher score, this isnt a score tweaks, this is an overall tweak. Tweaks thinks that you dont see like better mount system or read sd. It is more smoother? Interactive governor give less score but is the more battery friendly in the amazon os. This tweaks are for make kindle a better device. Change this lines in ztweak file in init.d folder

echo "interactive" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

echo "interactive" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor

To

echo "performance" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

echo "performance" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor

And run antutu, for daily use change it back to interactive, performance drains the battery too fast. Performance is a governor for make test.

Later, i will upload a updatedversion of my tweaks for kindle fire 8.9, i dont have a 8.9, i have a kindle fire hd 7", this tweaks are for all devices, but improve device a lot.

Use nova launcher than is better

Re: Kindle fire hd 8.9 tweaks

After using it for a while , I think this tweak makes it faster than before while it is not as fast as original android.

Another thing is that this device is not as hot as it does before tweak especially during charging make it really good benefit for me to use it.

About permission:

1. all files under /system/etc/init.d are set as rwxrwxrwx, folder init.d is set as rwxrwxrwx as well.

2. /system/build.prop is rw-r-----.

3. /system/mpengine is rwxrwxr-x, /system/mpengine/MPEngine9 is rwxrwxr-x, /system/mpengine/MPEngine9/MPEngine9X is rw-rw-r--.

EDIT:

Nova now is amazing smooth, no lag at all. I used to have nova but it is not fast like this. not sure why.

After rebooting several times, everything is faster. cheers.

A friend had me try an app from the market called "LagFix Free". You have to be rooted to run it, but I was amazed by the decrease in lag throughout normal tasks. It increases read/write scores in benchmark tests. These tweaks and this app, has me running pretty smooth right now.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] persano:
mine tweaks are good but are very battery friendly (very!), for better performance use sd maid too!

mi next release will be more battery friendly but with more higher performance (its real!)
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] persano:
New update !
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] persano:
this trim your partitions, is good, but sd maid clean all device, this two are good,it isnt lag, are trash files, that is the "lag" you have.

sd maid clean cache, trash files and corpse files, so its one of the better cleaners and "lag fixers" you will find

It would be helpful if you could be more specific about permissions. Especially if you mean all files in a folder, or the folder itself.

i say in my post files in init.d folder! do you know english, understand it?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Geekybiker:
I understand it, however...

It doesn't specify all the files and there is a folder named the same. I assumed it meant the files inside the folder. Just trying to clarify. What I'm trying to say is that ./system/etc/init.d/*.* set to RWXRWXRWX is a little clearer. Just trying to make it easier for other folks who want to try this too. Thanks for your work!

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] persano:
well, is exellent so i thing yes. a good score, do you see any speed difference before and after, that is the best test :D
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] conalt:
Look in the init.d folder for any files that have the word "test" in them. If you open that file in a text viewer it will get give the location of where it will write a .txt file if init.d support is working correctly.

If you can find and open these .txt files you can be sure that the init.d files are running at start up.

somebody help me pls

How did you install your init.d support? I found the Pimp my Rom method was unreliable. If you did use that, then try the included zip in the opening post.

Just copy over his two files that are in the xbin and ect folders. Check permissions and rebooted.

I came across this article. in my opinion if i bought my phone i should be allowed to do whatever I want... anyone disagree? Glad I unlocked my tmo sensation for my daughter on at&t before this went into effect..

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/30/the-most-ridiculous-law-of-2013_n_2585502.html
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jose0726:
iIl still be unlocking thou haha what are the chances of them finding out? Downloading movies and music is illegal and? ..people still do it xD crappy laws...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] M9x3mos:
What I guess they are getting at with the law is yes you own the hardware but do not own the software that runs on it. Only license it from the manufacturer and there for should not be allowed to change the software you don't own.

This law is also only effecting phones purchased after october and you can still unlock your phone you just need to have the carrier unlock it is all.

What is supposedly illegal is hacking the software to unlock it (like they can catch you) or getting a unlock code from a online provider other then your carrier / manufacturer.

I think it is dumb though. I bet Apple had a hand it in. Getting upset people were getting the carrier version of the iPhone and paying less and hacking to unlock it rather then paying a insane amount for the unlocked version.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DigitalUnderground:
Lol I bought a gun... Doesn't mean I can shoot whomever/wherever I want... Bought a car that goes 150 but can't drive that fast... Bought a computer but can't hack gov't websites...

Just because I buy something doesnt mean I can do whatever I want with it. Ppl are really making too big of a deal about this unlocking bit...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Alien1099:
All of those affect other people. Murder/assault is committing an act of violence against somebody without cause (can't claim self defense). Excessive speeding has great potential to kill other people on the road when you either slam into them because they are going normal speed vs your double speed or you lose control of your vehicle and slam into another. "Hacking" into somebody else's computer is an violates their right to privacy. That computer is their property and they have a right to be safe and secure when it comes to their property and belongings.

I understand your point, but YOU own your phone (assuming you paid for it and its not leased). You flashing your phone for another carrier and installing a custom ROM and using free software does not violate anybody else's rights to anything.

By your reckoning, do you think the government should be able to enforce a law for example that forces men to sit down to urinate? Either you are your own person and own your property or you don't.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DigitalUnderground:
Let's say a person with bad intentions gets an unlocked phone... With numerous different sim cards running through it from different carriers... You mean to tell me no harm can be done with that? It doesn't have potential to obstruct police investigations, locate kidnapped people, etc?

If you purchase an american flag, can you legally burn it? Hell can u leave it out in a rain storm? If you have cash that u earned, did u know its illegal to rip, burn, or even write on it? But its yours right?

Maybe it doesn't, but that's how I look at it. And everyone that has a phone already can unlock it if they want... Its just for new buyers which is why I don't see what the big deal is. How many people really unlock their phones? Less than 1% of cell phone users? Idk just think its a big fuss about a falling sky over nothing.

And BTW... I may not HAVE to sit/stand to urinate... But there are restrictions of where I urinate (if that's relevant)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jcbofkc:
Apparently a couple of people are confused regarding ownership. Yes, you own your phone. No, you do not own the software or firmware on the phone. You own a licence to use the software and firmware. I am not saying it is right or wrong, but that is how it works.

Hope that helps.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jose0726:
Sooo....if android is open source...i can flash another custom rom and unlocked it...no broken laws there right? lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Did you pay full retail or was your phone subsidized?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] M9x3mos:
Also to be clear. It is not breaking this law to root the phone or install custom software. That is still the same.

The law is only concerning the carrier lock on the sim card.

So you can flash as many roms and stuff as you want as that won't effect sim locks. But if you modify the firmware to remove the sim card lock then that would be a violation of this law.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jcbofkc:
If you unlock it without the carriers approval you are breaking the law. If somehow you can write all the firmware, drivers, modems, etc from scratch along with a ROM that does not contain any lines of code from the carrier you may be able to go that route.

Being how most of us have Tmobile it's a non-issue anyway because T-mobile is very friendly regarding unlocking.

Fisrt we own the phone no one owns the softwear its open source, qualcomm has relased the source code for there drivers the only prob is the federal government is full of crooks but thats not here nor there.

This is an equivalence of purchasing digital media. The consumer may have purchased the digital media but they have no right to distribute the content unless they have permission from the distributor(s). Unlocking a phone (illegally) means the consumer is distributing the phone without the carrier's consistency.

I still signed the petition that's against the passing of the law anyways.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daxecutioner24:
Pretty much trying to cut out the middle men in order to squeeze out the more money they can from Those online places or doing it yourself way. for example my girl has an iphone I would like to bring her to tmobile since she doesn't have att anymore. If I was a casual user I would be scared of "breaking" the law and trying to unlock online so I'm out of luck. Hence forcing to buy a phone from them. pretty soon they are going to force us buying warranty on tvs and such for our "sake" .

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
My views:

I find this law acceptable. You purchased a phone from T-Mobile or sprint, you will use this phone on that carrier. Period. However, I feel if you wish to leave a carrier, and you've paid all your fees. They should provide an unlock code. I feel this law is good because when carriers block an imei, then yeah there is no reason you should have the right to unlock the phone for another carrier. But, That's a little much to make someone pay another carrier for another phone when they have a perfectly good phone already.

Just my opinion.

The thread was discussing government overreach and I am sorry if facts bother you. The poster I was responding to mentioned how the government could do thing to us for our "sake". I was simply pointing out they already have and to expect more overreach by the current crop of crooks runing the show.

The fact is the government can now tell you what to buy and how much to pay for it (such as Obama Care) or pay a fine and potentially end up in jail for non-compliance. If you do not like my comment then do not respond. I did not write the law, I just have to pay for it.

Personally I am not overly concerned about the law, but it is a pointless overreach. If you sign a contract, you abide by the contract. If you breach the contract it should be up to the other party to hold you accountable. The FCC really should not be involved.

Not that big of a deal for unlocking....

If you have been with T-Mobile for more than 30 days and you mention their terms of service that state if you are a customer for more then 30 days then you get free unlock codes from them then they will email you an unlock code. Yes I've tried this. Yes it works. Especially when you shove their petty legal terms of service associated with unlocking down their throat. In the kindest way possible.
