bump

Sorry to bump and old thread but I have not seen any full solution to this problem. I came from apple(1 yr. in feb) thinking(more like hoping) that the android fanboys were right in saying "android has REAL multitasking, apple has *asterisk", Also i got tired of apples BS, minimal upgraded on new phones, plus the Note 3's pen is the ****, (though they did the same thing apple did with the Note 4) but back on topic.

Today I found a wifi faker for android but still not backgrounder fully working. I just need the ability to keep a app, that's not music related, working in the background because I only benefit from it being open as its automated to rack-up points while i do other stuff, usually less labor intensive. Plus I dont know what it is but i just have a fundamental problem with apps staying open when i close them even though i am fully aware it takes up no processes and is fully battery efficient. But there are apps for that, but still no way to keep and app fully running in the background.

Any help is appreciated, Thank You

P.S. I have seen this tread MultiTasking Breakthrough! but cant really make heads or tales of it.
[HTC One V] Dbzavatar:
Ok i really hate to say it and i know we all experienced this one time or another but, the HTC one v lags A LOT. It has its ups and sometimes is fast, but overall it's starting to really affect the whole experience. I've tried a lot of roms before and the problem is always there, even if i o/c or use scripts and stuff. But im not here to complain, i just want to know how you guys deal with lag, if any.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
Tbh I don't have any lags man. Maybe you just use/install too many apps? I use Greenify app to freeze unused apps and generally that's it. What kind of lags do you experience?
[HTC One V] Dbzavatar:
Just general lag every now and then. I also use greenify. But i think its because of all my apps that i have. On my old optimus v i had hundreds of apps and now i have to make sure to keep them low on the one v. Honestly the lag isn't all that bad, im really just curious as to how other people config there phones and what stuff they use.
[HTC One V] TheEndHK:
You will need greenify paid ver(root) to freeze more apps, free ver doesn't freeze all.

Stock rom is a no go, you expected to be lag a lot. Custom rom is much smoother.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
I disabled greenify and it is still working smoothly. However I don't have loads of apps installed but still, ONE V releases free RAM memory when it's needed, keeping most of tasks running. So for example when you need that extra memory for some action, it will free it by for example closing an app when it decides to do so.
[HTC One V] TheEndHK:
Greenify free ver is just a kid. It only works for user apps, no system apps. The goal of greenify isn't memory managment, you are talking about somethings else like SuperCharged V6 script(I'm using it too).

One of the main problem on android is there are lots of app like to start itself even you aren't needed or do not run/call them out, they just come out random and waste your cpu/ram/battery a lot, install SystemPanel Lite on Google Play and check it period by yourself. Greenify is to stop these kinds of action completely and paid ver does 90% of its job.

For the performance and battery friendly, I highly suggest you to try out this new rom Sense 4 Canadian KOODO(with SuperCharge V6), it got both advantages, really smoother than many other custom roms.

However, greenify donate ver is still a must on all roms. I also recommend you to install CrossBreeder 5.21 ver(only old ver is stable) on xda and remember to change the wake to 16 from 256 default, it is a script to fix android UI lag. Since 512MB ram isn't enough, you could give SuperCharge V6 memory management script a try as well.

I have used all stuffs above personally and my One V now is much more useable. Don't overclock much, some phones or kernel don't do good in overclocking.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
I have not used any SuperCharged V6 script, did it come along with my myONEv ROM? If not, is it a big upgrade if I flash it? I think I'll consider buying Greenify full version as you said, this is going to help a lot. However still, I am not experiencing any lags yet(fresh system).
[HTC One V] Dbzavatar:
Just curious, what settings do you guys use for the paid greenify? And btw im on rhytmic rom 4.2.2
[HTC One V] TheEndHK:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

There is no extra settings in donate ver, the only different is allows you to freeze a lot more apps which doesn't support in the free ver but you have to install xposed installer and enable both free/donate in it and reboot.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
Which do you also suggest to freeze? I freezed only recently opened which I don't want to be running. Not used any from the "show more apps" thing. (talking about paid version now) Btw thank you for your detailed instruction about the scripts, I'll get to it one day when I feel my phone gets laggy.

One more thing, any battery tips? Dunno if it's just my feeling but today it drained a lot more than yesterday with no big difference in usage I guess.
[HTC One V] TheEndHK:
Some process/app like to come out in background sliently without tell you or ask your permission. You'll need to use SystemPanel Lite to keep checking periodly to find out which is bad, or you can use "show more apps" to freeze all of them. Just make sure don't freeze chat apps(Hangout, Whatsapp, Skype) and some important process/app like HTC connect to PC(USB Mass Storage mode), Bluetooth service, Setcpu, MyTask(or else no one could ring you maybe), Message(SMS).

Try to wipe the cache and d-cache partition and sometimes One V battery percentage/report isn't that accurate. Or try uninstall greenify if it conflicts with your rom?

Well, crossbreeder and supercharge they are free script and easy installation in mind. In my opinion, no reason not to give them a shoot. No lagging and fast, remember there is a big different. Supercharge I believe it's not useful anymore for new phones got 1GB+ ram but to the 384/512MB/768MB is still helpful. Crossbreeder got reporting good on even all new smartphones with S4 Dual/Quad CPU.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
So basicly flashing Crossbreeder from this post will improve my battery life right? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113150

I also wanted to ask if this really is wroth goin for it? My battery drops by 2-4% by night, but I guess the trick here is that it improves the active battery usage right?

If you really want to find out which is battery drain part, you will need BetterBatteryStats.

And Battery Monitor Widget(check with statistics since unplug)

http://www.sendspace.com/file/gyw6uq

CrossBreeder will only helpful for UI. Only 5.21.13 is release ver thats why the developer keeps it, don't try 7.21.13 all recent build are beta, buggy and battery drain. I don't know why the developer didn't keep the 5.21.13 uninstaller but luckily I still have it in my HD so in case you meet any problem, you can uninstall it.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42093679&postcount=2

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree&hl=zh_TW

For the 5.21.13, you will need to change the write_wakeup_threshold to 16 and reboot via root browser or root explorer.
[HTC One V] kwitu:
Thank you for your time. I am installing the xda-dev link. I think the most draining part is the screen but we shall see after this apps gets onto my board. Whenever I will need this uninstaller for version 5.21.13 I'll contact you, thank you for your time and engagement. Learned a lot of new stuff today:) Cheers!

[HTC One V] TheEndHK:
I would like to introduce one more stuff in this thread. Though Supercharged V6 is great but used more battery and too complicated for beginner.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36794328#post36794328

That developer also has a small Kernel tweaking script with a bit memory management called KiskAssKerneler, it doesn't drain battery but works good, my system is also faster and memory management better alone with this script. For whose who want improvement but thought supercharge v6 is too complex, try this out.

EDIT: KickAss actually also used more battery but just might not be as much as V6. I would prefer to stick with V6 for more true performance.
[HTC One V] Dbzavatar:
I find that installing titanium backup and setting a schedule to clear system cache then reboot helps a ton with making it faster. I usually set this for 5-6 am in the morning when im asleep but you can change it to whatever time you want. I also set it to run everyday rather than every other day. I also recommend crossbreader, it helps a bunch!
[HTC One V] Gorep1xel:
To deal with lag I flashed Crossbreeder, OC'ed to 1.4GHz set zRam to 10%, set KSM, enabled purge assets, enabled 16-bit transparency, set SIO as I/O scheduler and Lionheart as CPU governor. I still get lag while multitasking but now is a good everyday phone.

Its gonna help a bit as there is no huge amount of data required to read over and over again. Not worth deleting music. Slightly noticable effect.

Hey guys I am thinking about buying an Xperia Z but I've read a lot about the DRM issues with unlocking the bootloader. My question is do these DRM issues only affect Sony apps or will it effect Google Movies. Can someone running a custom rom like cm10.1 confirm if google play movies will play?

[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
Sounds like you will need a motorola factory cable. I think that's what they are called. It provides power directly to the phone allowing you to fastboot. I know you can find them on ebay. I believe team black hat also sells an adapter to turn your regular OEM cable into a factory cable.

Your other alternative would be to sacrafice a usb cable and attach to the battery terminals directly to charge the battery. If you google it you should be able to find directions for how to do this. I believe someone posted a how to on youtube for the razr which should give you a good idea of what you would be getting into.

Good luck!

[Motorola Droid 4] ConstantineCS:
Fixed It

Thanks for the help.

I didn't feel like paying $12 dollars and waiting several days to purchase one of those special factory cables, so I ended up taking a non-USB charger, spicing it, and hooking it directly to the battery terminals like you said. After I did that, it automatically said that it was "OK to Program".

The only problem I had was that RSD Lite wasn't able to fix it, I had to download some other app that ran things through command prompt while the device was in AP Fastboot mode. But the end result was the same.

I found out that the problem that caused all this was me not flashing the CyanogenMod firmware into ROM Slot-1 while in the safestrap recovery mode. I flashed it to the "Stock" ROM Slot instead.

Thanks again for the help, I learned a lot, and I am glad I didn't have to shell out money for a new phone. :laugh:

2. Download source_ICS_Lidroid_SytemUI.apk

Exstract it and merge to your decompiled SystemUI.apk

NOTE !! if your device has arrays.xml in res/values/here

please do check again the source_ICS_Lidroid_SytemUI.apk and adapt the arrays.xml code in it with yours

done and Recompile your SystemUI.apk

3. Decompile the newly Recompiled APK again and go to

res/values/public.xml

open it with Notepad++

leave it, but keep it open

next

- smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/phone/PhoneStatusBar.smali

with Notepad++ , control+F

Replace 0x7f0e0096 with the new ids from second decompiled public.xml

<public type="id" name="[COLOR="Blue"]adi_quickpanel[/COLOR]" id="[COLOR="Red"]0x7fxxxxxx[/COLOR]" />

NEXT CONTINUE IN POST #3
[Android Themes] Adi Aisiteru Reborn:
4. Download ICS_Lidroid_public.xml

and open it with Notepad++

so now you have two public.xml which is opened in the Notepad++

1. second decompiled public.xml

2. ICS_Lidroid_public.xml

- go to , smali/com/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/here...

there are a lot of smalis there

FIND ALL IDS in all that smalis THAT'S STARTED WITH

[COLOR="Red"]0x7fxxxxxx[/COLOR]

EXAMPLE :

AirplaneButton.smali

find this :

const v0, [COLOR="Red"]0x7f080089[/COLOR]

find 0x7f080089 in ICS_Lidroid_public.xml

<public type="string" name="quickpanel_lockscreen_text" id="0x7f080088" />
<public type="[COLOR="Blue"]string[/COLOR]" name="[COLOR="Green"]quickpanel_airplane_text[/COLOR]" id="[COLOR="Red"]0x7f080089[/COLOR]" />
<public type="string" name="quickpanel_flashlight_text" id="0x7f08008a" />

we find that 0x7f080089 is for string .... quickpanel_airplane_text

Next, find string .... quickpanel_airplane_text new ids in your

public.xml of second decompiled SystemUI.apk

<public type="[COLOR="Blue"]string[/COLOR]" name="[COLOR="Green"]quickpanel_airplane_text[/COLOR]" id="[COLOR="Red"]0x7fxxxxxx[/COLOR]" />

change the ids in AirplaneButton.smali with your new ids from public.xml of second decompiled systemui.apk.

Do it too, to all

[COLOR="Red"]0x7fxxxxxx[/COLOR]

in all smalis in the lidroid folder.

6. Download this QuickPanel_Settings.apk and push to system/app with right permission

Done :)
