I'm shocked it really works with KT kernel dont say WOW

See how easy it was now use this kernel for few days and tell me which one is better KT or bioshock (the crappy faux copy)

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Guys look I'm sorry been working. I lost a lot of my OP because my computer crashed mid edit.

It states very clearly I thought in the OP that you MUST have KT kernel TW Version which has the zram module. Hopefully other kernels will be supported soon.

The in-app busybox download is a new feature guys it May not work for all but those of you who have been following this thread for a while will know that there is a CWM zip which also Installs the same busybox in case the app install fails... If it does just flash the Damn zip!!

I need to remember that new arrivals to this thread might not have followed the history of development but that's still no excuse for not having a bit of a read to see what's going on... So please guys if you are new to this thread and mod do a bit of reading before you post sh$t. Basic XDA etiquette yeah?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] hisname:
will this work on other kernels? :p lol

jokes aside, faux kernel has ZRAM built in. I think it will also work it. so it is not exclusive to ktoonsez kernel. I can test it for you:)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
V1.2e fixed and re-uploaded. (Same dropbox link)

OP updated to clear things up a bit for newcomers to this thread but ITS NO REASON TO NOT READ SKIM THE LAST FEW PAGES BEFORE YOU POST ABOUT ISSUES
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] LyuboA:
You guys really dont read at all just posting and posting are you with blind like I said before bioshock kernel is faux copy same kernel same functions and all and yes its not working on bioshock it will not work on faux too or any other for now KT is only kernel with ZRAM as MODULE wich make this possible

SO PLEASE JUST STOP POSTING ......

Ok guys this has been really tricky... The new app auto install wasnt really working properly. I'm tweaking it as we speak... I needed to properly set permissions and make the app wait till root permissions are granted. .

In the mean time please flash the CWM zip to install the dedicated busybox
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] htckenney:
Please advise

So i don't think i installed any of this correctly, my ROM and kernel meet the requirments.

i originally installed the [ZRAM_400MB_module_CWM]

then i installed the [Turbo_ZRAM__busybox_CWM]

then i installed the APK file[turbo_ZRAM.1.2d]

and it has the 0 in the in use field

So did i screw it up?

If i did how do i resolve it? Should i keep installing these zips and apks? or should i go to the root of the phone and delete the script?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
For a clean slate try this.

#1. Delete the init.d script. You might have 2 conflicting ones. My mod should auto delete the one from the stock 400MB zip.

#2. Download and flash one of the turbo zram zips. The zip will correctly remove and reinstall the dedicated custom busybox as well as set an init.d script.

#3. Reboot and use the l laptop latest app to see if the swaps get used but don't set anything with the app. If they aren't being used then use the remove boot option in the app and reboot.

Now use the app only to try to set the swap but don't use the set on boot option yet...

Let me know how it goes. Tomorrow I will sort this mess out and. The next app version will Remove everything and reset it properly. It's a complex headache but that's the way it is for now
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Oh **** your using v1.2d its a lemon use v1.2e or wait for the proper fixed version tomorrow.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Takilandbau:
Hy, everyone! Its good work. I use it. But, i have a problem, i reboot my device, and the turbo ram is start with boot,and its not working until im not change anythink in the ktweaker...superuser premission problem. Have a fix it? :) thx
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:

Flash the busybox zip first and use V1.2e
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] red8981:
Alright, found it, flashed, installed, worked :D

i installed this and it shows me that its working but it does not get rid of the lag at all. either i'm doing something wrong or it doesn't do what is claimed to do. also when i check info when its working it shows the "In Use" numbers around 2500kb, not even close to the 30,000 i see in first few pages of thread...
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
What swappiness are you using man?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Joomlad:
1248

100

as stated in OP. this is what it shows for me (highest ive seen the IN USE). i still get lag when adding widgets etc. sometimes switching screens
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Yeah that's not very much do you have any LMK or tweak mods like supercharger active? I get up to 500MB swap in use
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Joomlad:
not sure what LMK is but im running WanamLite 1.4 with KT kernel... that is all
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Moz007:
Please, help... :crying:
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
V2.0 released! OP updated :)

Flash remove all first to start with a clean slate then flash the new busybox and run the new app version. .. Hopefully it's all fixed now
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
2.0a re-uploaded and replaced the app name is unchanged... Hopefully nobody downloaded that fast!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Moz007:
Thanks for your work ! Hop this gona works !

So if i understand right, i have to flash :

turbo_ZRAM_REMOVE_ALL_CWM.zip

then

Turbo_ZRAM_V2.0_busybox_CWM.zip

then

turbo_ZRAM.2.0a.apk

Am i right ? :confused:

What is turbo_ZRAM_V2_2048MB_CWM.zip ?

Thanks !
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Those are zips which set the swap without needing the app at all
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] MattyDip:
I installed version 2 but settings will not apply after boot. Why?

For version 2, zram is not automatically created,, despite having set "start on boot" in app.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] gorgy76:
Same here. :( flashed uninstalled zram cwm. Begin fresh with latest released including latest custom busybox. Install latest app, still 0 in use. I also have the latest busybox from play store. Even tried to run only custom busybox and viceversa. Still no go.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Maloc Degray:

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] tylerholbrook:

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] tylerholbrook:

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] htckenney:
So i think this just doesn't work for the WICKED V6 or the V5.1 ROM for the T-mobile version with KTweaker kernel. I did a clean install of the Wicked V6 ROM because that was when it was released. then i installed the kernel then i flashed the Turbo V2 zip then installed the V2 APK.

Still not working :( Not sure what else i can do. i have been really interested in this and i hope im doing something wrong(don't think i am though) cause i really want to use this.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Seems to be broken for some roms yeah.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] tylerholbrook:
Wotking alpha v 8.6. Clean Install alpha. Flashed busybox fix. Instaled apk. OPen ktweaker and get root permisions. B open turbo xram turn it on enable it. Bam
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] LyuboA:
rlorange its not broken for some roms the problems are caused by the rom or busybox config I tested v2 version on my second S4 with several different roms it worked every time but if busybox is not installed or its not in xbin folder dosnt work and if busybox is installed with smart install again may not work

The script - app is working great the problems are caused by the changes made in some custom roms

GT-I9505 using XDA Premium
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
Yeah that's the conclusion I've come to as well.

Googy Max kernel for the s3 was inspired by my mod and he's figured out how to do it without a module. Should cause less issues KT is looking into the sources and hopefully will replace this at the kernel level
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] LyuboA:

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Maloc Degray:
One little question (I'm not that experienced). I'm one of those with "0's". I've also tried a lot with installing/uninstalling busybox, scripts etc... but no help.

I've also tried to look up some files that have been installed and in my \system\etc\init.d folder the "S01turbozram" file is empty. It is supposed to be that way or ... not? Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] LyuboA:
Flash one of the cwm zip with pre set zram 800, 1248 or 2048 it will override the file in ini.d then check in the app if it works

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] p()()pypants:
this can't possibly be the steps...

any clean install of alpha would force you to flash either the BioShock kernel or the infamous kernel while going through aroma installer...

so I'm guessing somewhere in your list of steps you actually flashed ktsgs4 kernel again?

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 PM ----------

so...sadly I won't be using this mod or the ktsgs4 kernel...

while this mod made the phone fairly quick, the kernel tweaked to the conservative settings suggested by the kernel developer wasn't working out so well...

I was getting horrible battery life and even worse my phone was burning up...

funny thing was I used both wicked roms and koontz kernels with my sgs3 and the phone would also heat up, even when undervolted....

I feel this significantly decreased the battery life in my phone and worse negatively effected my phone over time causing random reboots all the time.

BioShock, whether it be a faux copy or not was only barely slower with standard zram active and got insane battery life n ran cool as ice even when on the charger...

maybe zram module support will be added for it in the future...maybe not... but I'm not destroying my phone in the meantime with a minimally beneficial kernel.

A quick fix

Hey guys,

First time posting to XDA. Been lurking for a while now.

If you want a quick fix to get this working with ADAM kernel, use a script manager. I used SManager

#!/system/bin/sh

insmod /lib/modules/zsmalloc.ko

insmod /lib/mpduels/zram.ko

Set it to run as root and at boot and you should be good to go until rlorange has his fix in place.

Just to clarify, you will still need to go into TurboZram App and set the zram again since i dont think the SManager script runs before the app boots.

Thanks rlorange for this awesome mod. Its awesome :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Eri-cat:
Just wonder if zram works with CM10.2.

It seems KT kernel requires Rooted Touchwiz rom.

So that means zram only works with stock roms or roms modified based on stock roms???
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CliveWRSA:
You do have to be rooted and currently it will not work with CM10.x. Possibly if you can get a kernel that handles the kernel moduels correctly maybe but you will most likely need ot load the .ko files from a different location.

Regards
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Eri-cat:
Thank you for replying.

Totally hv no idea what I need to do on CM10.2 to make it work. I don't intent to switch back to touchwiz rom. Seems i hv to keep lurking...until the day zram works on CM...

Ag, thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CliveWRSA:
asylum arastf

No problem. I think its more than possible to get zram working with CM rom. But I suspect CM itself would need some small changes to accommodate the kernel changes.

I have not done kernel dev in a long time but if i get some free time and with OP's permission give it a go and submit my findings to include into his app if it works.

I only have an i9500 though and CM is still pretty dodgy on it, but i will do my best.

Hi, im noob and i want use this mod.. The op is kinda confusing..My rom comes with busybox so do i still need to flash busybox cwm?.. Also i want to use script.. How do i know the script is working? Thank you..
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] LyuboA:
Yes you need to flash the zram busybox v2 from op

to set the amount to zram drives you can use one of pre set CWM zips in op 800, 1248 or 2048MB but to see if it works you need to install Turbo ZRAM app you can also use the app to set zram drives

If its not working after flashing busybox from op and install the app you need to install last busybox from google play in xbin

GT-I9505 using XDA Premium
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] dannyella:
Thanks for reply.. so i flashed the 1248mb and installed the app. When i opened app i get prompt that custom busybox detected and working properly. I didn't flash the busybox zip. So im good right? If script is not working, how can i tell from app?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] bg_man:
I did the same and app is working. Set the app and after 10 minutes check in the app with "i" button (in right upper corner) to see "in use" values. If they are not zeroes you have all set right.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] rlorange:
UPDATE: V2.0b TEST app

> Fix to detect the supplementary module required by Adam kernel.

NOTE: The standalone zip versions will not work yet. This version should set a new init.d script with the necessary code to Adam users please check the in-app set zram function AND set on boot before I update all variants.

Dude I really wish this would work for my rom I don't think it works well with my rom it should maybe you can work on getting it to work with the wicked ROM series, since it's a very popular rom and this is a very popular feature to have, so work your magic. I have it running even though it is not working for me, still says 0 in use but I'm going to leave it on my phone hopefully you crack the code we want it on wicked.

Or maybe I'm thinking I need a different approach, a different method of installing wish we can figure it out my mouth is watering for this app lol but like I said it doesn't work for wicked ROM series, I know this because I tested your app on a different ROM I think it was infamous rom and it worked for me I was all excited, what I love my wicked ROM you know how it is when you have a rum you're so used to when you stick to so I guess you can say the wicked ROM series is family to me and my phone lol

Well maybe the dev for wicked ROM can help out since his is the only one that doesn't work for unknown reasons. I'd say it's something broken with his script handler 'sh' or maybe some weird simlinking of busybox. It's very hard for me to figure this out without running the ROM in question. Look for busybox in /sbin and /bin report what you find
