The Aroma script does not work because our device is not recognized. Nevermind, as WhiteNeo said, we can extract the scripts from the zip manually and move them to /system/etc/init.d (or elsewhere if one uses SManager).

I've selected the 200Mb script for the cache partition, the 500Mb script for the data partition and the 300Mb script for the system partition. So, I have virtually 2Gb of RAM (1Gb of true RAM + 1Gb of swap) :D

This mod seems amazing.

No issue noticed up to now.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Actually, it's a bad idea to swap more than 200Mb, it's useless and causes lags...

I think that a swap of 200Mb in the cache partition is the good thing to do, it's very helpful for heavy memory usages and does not seem to cause lags.

If my impressions are confirmed, I'll update my thread in a few days.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Trying 200mb cache, 500mb system swap right now.. Let's see if I experience lags as well. ^^
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Steven How:
Op,maybe try change ur swappiness lower? 60 is default .. :) echo 60 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

Send from my NTT Docomo Xperia AX SO-01E
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Update.. 500mb swap on system is probably no good idea.

Might decrease the reading speed of system files (apks, libs and so on) which slows down the system.

Also, swap may break any sd memory. And this is too risky for the essential system partition imo.

I'll try zram and report how this one works for me
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Ok, good to know that.

But what do you mean by "swap may break any sd memory" ?

200Mb on cache partition is ok, no lag, no slowdown. It's a good thing.

I'm going to try 200Mb on cache + 300Mb on data partition and play with swappiness if it lags.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Swap causes much more read/write/delete cycles than any sd memory is used to.. If you know how exactly swap works you will know what I mean.

So, sd cards and also internal storages that are used for swap will probably not have the same life span that they would have otherwise.

"sqlite" permissions

Hi, I'm assuming this guide works for both T,V and TX as you wrote in the signature. . . I'm interested in trying Pure Performance X tweak and I'll do it as soon as I'm free; though here I have a little doubt, what permissions should the "sqlite3" attached in the OP be set after moving it to xbin folder as I see files with different permissions?

I don't understand anything bout device tweaking but humbly I hope this tweak will work especially on fixing the heavy battery drainage and increases performance as described
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peetr_:
Btw. how could you try zram? I thought it's only kernel feature?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Good question. :D

Noticed 5min after installing the script that nothing happened.. So, yes, you're right. Doesn't work on LB :D

---------- Post added at 08:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

I'm not quite sure if you will get rid of the battery drainage with these tweaks.

That strongly depends on the drains cause.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] izuall187:
You can run it on Lb. You just need to make it run as root on everyboot via scriptmanager just like the cpufreq.

Btw, msm-dcvs works well on avoising home redraws but battery drain is horrible compared to ondemand.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Yes I do know, but don't worry too much about that, recent sd memory is robust enough.

Just set all permissions.

You will notice a performance gain.

As WhiteNeo said, to fix battery drainage you need to determine the drain causes. Use BetterBatteryStats for that. Then, for instance, you can use Greenify to freeze some apps.

msm-dcvs governor may not have something to do with home redraws.

Some T users have reported slight better battery stats using msm-dcvs and I think this is true. But it can strongly depends on your usage of your devive.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] exeon:
Really? Then I might considering to switch back to ondemand. :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Compare by yourself :p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Really? So it mustn't be an init.d script?

Even tried to run the script in terminal (of course typing "su" before).. No success.

Perhaps it depends on what script you choose.. Which one did you try?

Thread updated : §9. Let's swap! :)

Try it, it worth the effort...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] exeon:
Hmm dear OP, is it the swap only works for those device with external sdcard?

So far my TX didn't use external sdcard yet lols but I think it is about swapping between storage and virtual memory right?

Edit: Will it affect the performance for light usage users?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
No need external sdcard, with this method the swap (= virtual memory) is in internal storage.

No, it may not affect performance.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] exeon:
Sorry for asking so much but this is the last question.

What does it mean "type free to verify that the swap has been created"?

Inside terminal, the total, used and free of swap remain 0, is this normal? :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
No, not normal at all :eek:

Did you apply the correct permissions to the init.d files ?

Are you on a stock based rom with the stock kernel ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] exeon:
Lol.. Ya I did applied the permissions to rwxrwxrwx(correct I think?).

Ya I'm using stock rom with stock kernel. Or it doesn't support stock kernel? :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Permissions are correct. Stock kernel supports swap.

Have you init.d support enabled??
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] exeon:
Lols I reactivated the init.d and now it's working! Thanks :laugh::good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Good!! :)

Personnaly, I had trouble with init.d support and I use SManager to do the job.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] devilmaycry2020:
[MENTION=5231789]nreuge[/MENTION]

i've installed Universal Init.d v1.2.1 ok but after press TEST and reboot, it show your kernel don't support . But before that i've used Droid Manager to add init.d support to kernel and i saw a folder init.d in system/etc . so my phone really support init.d or not ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
I'm attaching a test file. Extract it and copy it in your init.d directory.

Reboot.

If a file /data/local/tmp/initd_test.txt has been created, you have init.d support.

Otherwise, you can use SManager (in playstore) to run your script as su at boot.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] josephnero:
hey bro.correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't swap harm memory in long term usage?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Statement by the devs of turbo boost triple swap :

"If you are afraid of too many read/write requests to /cache, /data, /system, which may harm your eMMC memory of your phone, then don’t read further – we are not afraid, because there are also a lot of read/write requests to the /data partition as well and this is in Android “by design”. Furthermore there are devices, that have a preconfigured eMMC-swap space "by design""

Don't worry too much about that bro, recent internal memories are robust enough.

There is a tiny risk however.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] josephnero:
thanks for the info
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] devilmaycry2020:

Kingo Android Root is a well-designed, aesthetically pleasing application for Windows based computers that forgoes the device specific route, and offers rooting for a lot of Android devices from a variety of manufacturers. Supported phones include the likes of Google Nexus lineup, several HTC devices including HTC One, One X, One V, Droid Eris, Motorola Defy, a number of Samsung phones, popular LG devices and some smartphones from Sony. It offers a true one-click root experience, where you have to just download the application, install it, connect your device and click Root.

​

There are a few things that you need to be mindful of. When connecting your device, you need to have USB Debugging enabled in Android settings. There’s no requirement for pre-installed device drivers, as the software will take care of that for you. In fact, it will give you the Root option only after the drivers have been properly configured. Past that, all you have to do is hit the Root button, and let the application work its magic.

The app pushes SuperSU binaries which are slightly outdated, but get instantly updated to the new version thanks to Google Play. However, it won’t install a custom recovery, so that part you’ll have to take care of manually. Kingo Android Root supports Android versions up to 4.3.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] xBeerdroiDx:
How to Use the Kingo Android Root One-Click Tool

Step 1. Download the Kingo Android Root windows application and install it on your Windows desktop.

Step 2. Once the installation is finished, run the application and connect the device to the computer with USB cable to start the process. Now the application will install the latest drivers on your PC.

Step 3. This will take some time to install the drivers. Once the drivers are installed on your PC, you will see a new screen on your desktop with your device name and "ROOT" button. See the screenshot below:

Step 4. Hit the ROOT Button from the app screen to begin the root process on your device.

Step 5. Be patient. It will take some time to finish the process. Once the operation is completed, you will see the “Root Succeeded” message on your screen.

Your device should now be rooted. With the help of this application you can unroot your device as well. All you have to do is select the Unroot button and follow the onscreen instructions. For more help, check the application FAQ section Mod Edit here too..

**None of this is my material. This is the work of the Kingo team.**

It's unclear what was causing the slowness, but after a while it finally all went through and my phone is now rooted. Thanks!

I did have to restart the App several times while it was downloading the update. That also seemed to be going very slowly. My download speeds wouldn't go above 100kb/s (consistently) and after a while the download will stop at a certain percentage. I would then have to restart the app, and then it would continue from the percentage but then stop at another percentage.

I have 25+ MBps connection, so I don't think it was my internet. It could have been the laptop though for slowness on both ends, downloading and communicating with the phone. I would have to look into it further though.

Anyways, thanks for responding to me!

this is going to be a rather unpopular opinion, but upon rooting, your warranty SHOULD be void.

why should the carrier or manufacturer honor a warranty when you've enabled the ability to brick the device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
It's probably a matter of semantics but I disagree that just rooting should void the warranty. Many things can still happen hardware wise that should still be covered by warranty. I do agree that if you brick your device by flashing something you shouldn't be flashing it shouldn't be covered by warranty. Unfortunately too many people do not that responsibility for there own actions. And therefore the carriers and manufactures put in place their policy of voiding warranty if you root.
