Restore buttery smoothness after installing many apps

Greetings!

I have recently installed this ROM and thought it was fantastic and buttery smooth... well at least until I reinstalled all of my 150+ apps.

I quickly noticed that the amount of free RAM available to running apps is very low (100-150 megs) and that apps are constantly OOM-killed and multitasking is a PITA.

Because I liked this ROM and its features so much I decided to do some research and try to get rid of this irritating issue.

Fortunately, I have managed to fix it in this ROM and I wanted to share with you guys with my finding.

The culprit is that the script bundled with ROM v3.0 which is intended to optimize system during bootup is broken and does not execute properly.

The script in question is responsible for zipaligning, database reindexing and system tweaks among others.

After I fixed this script I've seen 250-300 megs free RAM and massive improvement in terms of responsiveness and multitasking.

In the attachment you have a fixed script (95QuickConfigTweaks.zip).

Just replace the file /etc/init.d/95QuickConfigTweaks with the one in archive and execute the script as a root.

After reboot you should immediately see improvements in system performance.

Alternatively you can install the fix via CWM (PatchV3-2-CWM.zip), but in this case you will improvements after second reboot (script will finish optimization in background after Android completes booting. So please wait 2-3 minutes after first reboot for the script to complete its job. That's why I suggested to execute script as a root manually...).

Of course please backup first and don't blame me if anything goes wrong.

Cheers!

I have a problem with wifi ap.

Other devices can't connect, acquiring ip... But never connect...

Anybody can help me?

Thx

This is a great ROM and thanks to the original developer and everyone contributed!

My wife was complaining the slowness of the $amsung ROM then I installed this ROM and she thought I brought her a S5 :P

Just now she's got 200+ apps installed and feels it's slow switching between apps and the worst is when you switch back to home i.e. TouchWiz. The slowness can be caused by she putting most of her apps in folders so there are tens of apps icons in each of the 7 or 8 folders.

To solve this I've installed the ADW Launcher which is one of my fav lauchers. This instantly solve the slowness but the Accuweather and S Planner widgets are gone (they're not available in the widget list of ADW), I did some googling and seems the stock Accuweather widget is only on TouchWiz while the S Planner widget works with TouchWiz only as expected.

I then installed the Google Play's Accuweather and Calendar Widget, they're working fine. Now the question is

- Can I remove TouchWiz and S Planner and how to do that?

Thanks and Cheers!

Hi dude, please check this:

http://jumobile.com/

I'm using this app for a while now and I'm satisfied with it. The app is available in PlayStore also. You can remove system apps with it. Your phone must be rooted [you're running a custom ROM, so it is rooted I guess :p] . Install the .apk with a file explorer, open it and grant root access. Scroll the list of of the installed components and remove the wished ones.

Cheers,

- Occasus
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kenysc:
Thanks Occasus, sure will give it a try!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aziz981:
After many roms, I will stick to this ROM for a while.

Took some tries, but after going through thread, this rom is now working perfectly.

If it helps anyone,

1. First install V3, select dpi as 320 (stock Samsung)

2. Install V3 patch 1

3. Install V3 patch 2 (Link in 2-3 posts above)

4. Restore all apps from your backup, reboot, clear caches, and you are good to go

For dpi's other than stock, (I am using 290), use Xposed framework to change them (SystemUI in App Settings)

Thanks for the great work!!

After flashing archikernel my battery consumed 10% per hour is this good? Or just normal? But I cant charge my phone when its off. It keeps booting.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Dabidue:
Of course, not. Get wakelock detector from play store, install and monitor the processes and services may cause your problem. Else, get ES task manager from play store to check if auto start processes are as they should.

Press thanks if I could help to solve your problem.

Tethering through USB or using WiFi hotspot doesn't seem to work for me on this ROM (When windows connects to the WiFi hotspot or to the USB, the internet shows as limited). Is there any confirmed fix or has anyone been able to get it working? I tried searching the thread but no response appears to be applicable to this issue
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vher29:
I forgot to add my batt consumed 10% per hour in web browsing using wifi with screen on all the time is that normal?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Dabidue:
Possibly, yes. Depends on battery saving settings, display settings and so on.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] srv.abhishek:
Flash a compatible modem or flash stock 4.3 using Odin. . Hopefully either should solve the problem

Problem solved. Found the correct modem for my phone.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Vicxx:
Just flashed this, so far so good, but it's a lot slower than stock Touchwiz on 4.1.2. Was I supposed to tick all the performance mods during installation? Because I only selected the first aggressive one. I assume more performance means more battery drain, or do they not affect battery life? As I was coming from jellybean 4.1.2 (old) I also had to flash an EFS update, my SIM was getting no service otherwise, might be helpful to mention this in the OP for noobs like me (thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help/newly-installed-rom-wont-recognize-sim-t2741842).

I also can't find a way to customise the lock screen shortcuts, I've looked but there's no option for it. Is there also no way to use the flashlight with the home button? Coming from CM 4.4.4 this rom feels a bit backwards, yet it's the most popular rom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] usf1996:
Dear Dev,

i flashed the ROM and ticked the backup efs option. After booting i got a null/null IMEI how can i restore my efs? Note that i didn't install samsung tools.

Thank you
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Vicxx:
I just had that problem myself. If you were on 4.1.2 before then your EFS is v1 but anything after 4.3 uses EFS v2, so this rom can't read your v1 EFS. All you need to do is flash the new modem in recovery and you're done: http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=5557
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrashoo:
just flashed this rom and till now no FC or battery / phone issues only prob im facing is sometime phone starts lagging while using messaging or other apps gets slow stops responding then gets normal.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miltongina:
What Kernel are you using I downloaded the boeffla kernel rom 7.7 and the apk run good.

:D :cyclops:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrashoo:
im using the one which comes with the rom .
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Vicxx:
I also get a lot of lag and crashing, it's much slower than stock, but I didn't install the performance mods which I might do later. Did you?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrashoo:
i did installed all mods after several tries i switched to another rom and quite satisfied with it
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miltongina:
I don't understand the problems you are having with this ROM. I have 3 GT-I9300 and have install the Note 4 S5 editions on each one and so far I have no problems with it, did you install the Boeffla Kernel also. This is ROM is very good and fast. I advice you to try to Format in recovery mode and then do a clean installment of the ROM, back up first your important files on your External SD card.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mitchpunk:
Hey guys! I'm gonna give this ROM a try. I haven't been using my i9300 for quite a while though

so if you could please enlighten me here...

I'm currently on stock 4.3 and latest TWRP 2.8.6.1

All I need to do is:

- Full wipe/factory reset

- Flash the ROM zip

- Flash Patch V3 (?) what exactly is that for?

- Flash theming zip ?

Do I need to flash gapps here?

It gets confusing after a couple years of being used to Nexus devices, haha
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miltongina:
Full wipe/factory reset. Just flash the rom zip file no Gapps already there and then get the Kernel Boeffla 7.7 and the Apk on play store. If you have any problems after installation like unfortunately stop running. Backup your files and do a Format on your cell just in case any bugs left on, do a clean installment and start from scratch. then flash the ROM zip file.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tariq2kn:
Does the rom have upsm?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rockerblood:
if i coming from custom cm based 5.1.1 how do i flash?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miltongina:
same way

The same way you do all Custom Roms

1. Download ROM

2. Copy zip file to Extsdcard of the Cellphone

3. Reboot into recovery mode.

4 Wipe/Cache clean

5. goto install and look up the zipfile Rom

6. Flash it. install it

It will start the installation it takes about 5 min or so

will go into logo then Desktop do all your configuration and setup on cell.

enjoy.

In the first post you have:

But in the Download post its V3.

Where is version 5?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ricky Divjakovski:
its the 5th release of the rom, version 3 is the updated, thats why its Revolutionary S5 V3 in the thread name, we release V1, V1.x, V2, V2.x, and V3

all major releases came with an update a short time later to fix bugs from the major changes
[Galaxy S III Android Development] clinford:
Thank you Rick.

That's not the way I do version control, that's why I asked.

what, really? that's how everyone does version releases, otherwise Windows 10 would be like Windows 10,361,937.

Is it required to flash Kernel Boeffla 7.7 after the flashing the ROM?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miltongina:
Boeffla

After I flash the rom first, boot and configure it, then I restart in recovery mode and flash the Boeffla Kernel.

There is a new Kernel out Boeffla 7.9
[Galaxy S III Android Development] balaakrs:
Thanks miltongina. Will do it.

Have issue with Camera. Closes as soon as i open it. As stated in the previous messages solution would be to install Stock Kernel, take a photo and then flash custom kernel, right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] balaakrs:
never mind. Assumed Themes installation caused the Camera issue and did a clean flash again. works fine now.

Device seems to be working fine with out Boeffla kernel. Whats the improvement in it? Does it fix something?

why do u flash boeffla 7.9 ? isnt 7.9 the kernel for 4.4.4 and the rom is JB 4.3 ??? im confused

[Galaxy S III Android Development] 3545alg:
My Galaxy S5 died. Samsung wanted 7,000 baht ($200) to replace the mainboard. I dug out my old faithful S3 and was disappointed with the Omega ROM that was on it. It worked OK but the battery life was poor. I went ahead and downloaded Revolutionary S5 V3. I was surprised that when I installed it, there was no option for a clean wipe. I went ahead and installed it anyways. Installation was quite fast and flawless. The phone works like a champ and battery life is much better than the Omega ROM. This is a great ROM and what apps I wanted, I was able to install from the Google Store.

As far as the S5, I sent it to a repair shop and they have repaired the original mainboard. I don't have it back yet but it is guaranteed for three months. The cost was $85. Time will tell whether the phone holds up or not. With the new ROM in the old S3, I am quite happy with the old phone.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ricky Divjakovski:
glad this ROM is stillmaking an impact, if only i had an s3 i would still be messing around with it, i was in the process of a custom kernel when i broke my s3, if i ever got one i would bring the s3 back from the dead, by far one of samsungs best releases.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 3545alg:
My old S3 was and is a great phone. I did have to replace the touch screen but other than that, it has been great.

I will never buy another top of the line Samsung phone. I had two S4's, both failed because the mainboards died. My S5 was less than two years old and that mainboard also failed. I think their quality has gone down the hill. I bought my wife a Xiaomi Mi5. It wasn't that cheap at $285 but cheaper for sure than an S7 Samsung. My wife says it is far better than the S5 and the camera is really good. When the S5 is repaired, she told me to keep it myself. She won't give up her Xiaomi. Time will tell how long her new Mi5 phone holds up.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ricky Divjakovski:
hmm, im had multiple samsung phones and ive never had a failed mainboard :confused:

the only way you could possibly destroy it i by bending the charger and shorting it, ot dropping it a few too many times..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 3545alg:
After two S4 failures and now the S5 failing, I'm convinced that Samsung quality has gone drastically downhill. I became a Samsung fan because of the excellent S3. I'm using that phone right now tethered to my computer. The S5 was my wife's phone and it was in an expensive Spigen case. According to her the phone has never been dropped. As strange as it may seem to you, three mainboard failures happened and that's enough for me. No more top of the line Samsungs for me.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GU37:
Well, this is the only ROM that actually worked for me with the phone signal after trying a couple of CM builds and slimkat. IF i backup the EFS from this ROM, will that help me to get it to work with other ROMS? The install method i used was only flashing the main ROM without any of the patches..
