[Motorola Droid X2] CheapDad:
I just purchased a Droid x2 for my daughter to use on PagePlus. It's running 2.3.4. I followed the instructions for rooting it using SuperOneClick and get stuck at Step 7 no matter what I do. I've spent hours trying to get this to work unsuccessfully.

I'm running Win 7. I downloaded the Android SDK and have Java installed. I downloaded SOC and ran it. It finds the phone each time and just times out at Step 7. I've tried different cables, different USB ports with no success.

I downloaded PDAnet to get different drivers and that did not work.

I have NOT tried MoonShadow's method yet.

I am trying to root simply to freeze apps that I know my daughter has no interest in so as to preserve memory. If it is possible to disable cellular data (i.e., limit her to wifi), that would be a bonus.

What am I doing wrong?

TIA,

[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Guys, I need a help. Tried everything, but still facing big lag especially when I click on dialer, contacts or messages (waiting couple of secs until they show up). This is more obvious when I click right after I 'woke up' my phone from deep sleep.

I'm using stock 20b with Iodak v8 kernel (tried v9 as well, but due to bluetooth and fm radio issue on stock, reverted to v8). Also, I did everything what I could found to improve performace: disabled and then deleted MLT, did a full wipe of everything (clean install), installed only apps that I need, turned off 3g, data and gps (only WiFi is on), installed Greenify and so on..

My current setup of kernel is following:

Governor: interactive (tried ondemand, but was even worst)

Max: 1600000

Min/Max Screen Off: 760000

Scheduler: SIO

CPUQuiet Power: userspace (noticed that only 3 cores are online instead of 4)

I appreciate any help, but please, don't tell me to search, 'cause I did. As for the other custom roms, I tried CM, but I prefer more stock, mostly because of Gallery, Polaris and FM Radio Apps.

Guys, is there any way to fix this lag issue? I don't care much for the battery, since this lag drives me crazy.

Thanks in advance.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
This is "normal" for system apps. Download custom apps from google store like ExDialer,GOSms.. That will resolve your lag.. When you install those apps from store, use titanium backup to freeze stock apps(dialer,contacts,messages).

[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Thanks guys, but neither of these two options helped. There's some improvements, but still pretty much laggy.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Think I found out what causing lag: synchronization. Every time when phone is synchronizing, everything is so laggy, otherwise is ok. Following accounts have sync turned on: Skype, Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter and Google.

Does anyone of you have experienced similar problem? Is there solution for this?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] bomerzz:
I have all those apps running in my phone, but I did not face those lags.

But ya I did felt those lags when I'm still using stock JB OS. Stock JB from LG is sucks man, you should instal another ROM.

Currently I'm using CM11 (Kitkat 4.4.2 based), its lag free and have more free RAM. (around 350 - 400MB). :good: :D

The difference is like heaven and hell compared with the stock ROM (I only have 150 - 200MB Free RAM).
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
The ROM can make a difference, but it has nothing to do with "Free RAM". I wish people would stop perpetuating this myth.

Free RAM is wasted memory on an Android device. Unless you are getting below about 50MB there is not a problem as the device is designed to use as much as it can and then swap it out automatically.

I agree about CM11 though. I'm running the latest nightly and the only problem I have is the delay in waking when you press the power button
[LG Optimus 4X HD] bomerzz:
Well.. Sorry for my false statement and thank you for correcting it :D

4X HD is my very first android device. But that's what I really thought after I flashed the CM11.. Its like whoa, more free space on RAM, and it feels like I'm using a new phone :p

You might want a read of this;-

RAM: What it is, how it's used, and why you shouldn't care
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Well, I’m afraid that I’ll be forced to get back to CM (used it once, but missed some apps such are: FM Radio, stock gallery app (couldn’t find good replacement that synced photos with google acc) and Polaris Office – these apps I use on a daily basis). Anyway, before install CM, I’ll give one more try to Stock.

I did what [MENTION=5047403]ottomanhero[/MENTION] told me, and that actually helped. But, since I used Trickstermod to tweak governors, after every single reboot, stock values would be back, so I had to use init.d script, and there comes a problem.

Here is what I did (followed instructions from Iodak's OP):

- Using ES File Explorer created folder /system/etc/init.d and set permissions to rwxr-xr-x

- Created new file in init.d folder and name it 1script (used Note++ instead of Windows editors to avoid leaving an extra space at the end of each line or an invisible invalid character)

- Then added following commands:

#!/system/bin/sh
echo "70" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/go_maxspeed_load
echo "70" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/midrange_go_maxspeed_load
echo "60000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/min_sample_time
echo "20000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/timer_rate
echo 200 300 400 450 500 600 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_overclock

- and finally set permissions to 1script rwxr-xr-x and owner to root group to shell

So, that should be it, but didn’t work for me. Then, I installed SManager to check what’s wrong with the script, and it stated that with first 4 lines error is: no such file or directory (which is strange because exactly that's the path), and for the last line is stated: permission denied.

Did I miss something? Apologize if this question is too noob for you guys, but I’m running out of ideas.

Thanks all for your help.

Vladimir
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ottomanhero:
Oh, really?

Free RAM is NOT wasted RAM.

It directly effects smoothness of the phone.Why do you think android would have Out Of Memory values if it was created to just fill up the RAM with only apps? It still needs some RAM free for caching.

I think the script didn't execute at boot due to last line, you forgot the quotes.And while using Smanager you gotta tick "root" or else it won't run.Try this one ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Well, you were right about the quotes (now, the new values are set), but as the other 4 lines, they still have the same error: No such file or directory, and all values are stock.

Do you have any idea what's going on? Why did it work for one, and didn't for the other lines?

[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
As I stated in my first post;-

Of course you need some free memory, but not hundreds of MBs of it. I notice that you pointed the same XDA quote that is used and linked to by lots of different sites when this is being discussed. To use someone else's quote - better written than I could do so myself;-

As the OP was stating that "I only have 150 - 200MB Free RAM" with the Stock ROM, that is definitely NOT what is causing a lag issue. If you have that much free memory (before Android goes caching stuff and not declaring it of course) then you are absolutely fine on any Android device there is.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ottomanhero:
Maybe your partitions aren't mounted.I took these lines from pimp my rom init.d script.Create another script but it has to come before the governor tweaks script.

For example, name this script "93Mount" and name the governor script "94Governor" so the mounting script will be executed before governor script.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
Well, I did like you said and here's what I got:

exec /system/bin/sh '/etc/init.d/93Mount'
h '/etc/init.d/93Mount' <
failed: No such file or directory
failed: No such file or directorybh on /data

[LG Optimus 4X HD] vladja10:
A week ago I flashed CM11 as well as Iodak 9.5 kernel and asked myself: what took me so long to go from stock to CM. Everything works as it should: init.d script, Trickstermod and all other things that didn't work properly on Stock.

But, have to admit, it's not as smooth as I expected. It's a bit laggy, not even close how it was on Stock, but a little bit yes. I'm using following tweaks:

Governor: interactive

Max: 1500000

Min/Max Screen Off: 760000

Scheduler: SIO

CPUQuiet Power: balanced

echo "70" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/go_maxspeed_load

echo "70" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/midrange_go_maxspeed_load

echo "60000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/min_sample_time

echo 200 300 400 450 500 600 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_overclock

Well I saw your posts on some of the threads and I had to address it.

The reason that you have ram on your phone/computer/etc,

Is to give the system the ability to Access the data and use it as fast as she can.

Your saying that free ram is wasted ram is only partially right,

When you see on our phone `150M free ram, it's not because everything is ok.

What the system does, is forcing some important/used apps out of ram and it make them Cached processes To be able to keep that gap of free ram (`150m) which will able the system to run properly.

But actually the system do lack of ram !!! and its messes with the performance,

Because when the system will need that Cached process it will use it while it cached (slow performance) or bring it back to ram while caching another process to keep the gap (again, the result is bad performance).

You can check in your phone and u will c that we have about 100m of cached process (depending on the amount of apps that u use)

So to keep it simple and summarize it:

If you have 1GB of ram on your phone, 150MB free ram , 0 cached processes - free ram is wasted ram

If you have 1GB of ram on your phone, 150MB free ram , >1mb cached processes – your system needs more ram and the maker of this phone made a bad decision, maybe because he wanted to lower the price a little, but still - bad decision
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ottomanhero:
-First of all don't use GPU freq 600 mhz, 564 uses less power by far and is stable under less voltage so you get less heat, less power consumption.Not worth for the 36 mhz.

-Deadline scheduler is better than SIO.SIO might show you better benchmarking scores, but it is not as fast as it seems.It isn't stable so you'll get lag spikes.

-Maybe you mean the UI lag.There is really nothing much you can do about it as it doesn't really put any load on CPU so you get some lags.Notice how navigation bar is smoother while using an app, but it gets laggy in launcher.

-Also try vanir, it looks smoother overall (IO etc.) but haven't tried gaming yet.

-Get android tweaker 2 and use some build.prop tweaks.They helped me with UI responsiveness in CM.(Make sure to not enable power supply under battery tweaks, it gave me a bootloop.)

-I found runnable smoother than balanced, somehow.

-I suggest you to keep max freq while screen is off, @ 475 mhz cause it'll be using LP core.I haven't tried music playback as I have my mp4 to do playback stuff but I guess it shouldn't lag on 475 mhz.

-Give seeder a try and/or find entropy enlarger tweaks to keep your entropy high, this helps with overall smoothness of the phone.Vanir seems to have a seeder like service runing to keep the entropy full, so that is why it's so smooth.

-Set readahead cache size to 5.5 mb or 2 mb.5.5 gives me the best benchmark results on 10 MB & 100 MB files (tested via android tuner free)

Stock rom is the slowest of all so I don't really get how you think CM is almost as laggy as stock.

Click thanks if I helped ;)

Download JB firmware for you phone and install it with Odin, like you did that kernel. That kernel is for Gingerbread, that's why you get that problem. It will be fixed. Btw we do not have Odin flashable kernel with TWRP, that's how I know it was for GB. New time download CoCore for JB and unpack it. Use kernel.bin.md5 to install it with Univeral kernel flash app and some root explorer. You need to root it first with Shaaan's method.

Hi All,

I have come across a peculiar issue while using the ViperOne rom and just wanted to check if anyone has a clue about it.

When I navigate to 'Settings > Power > Usage', I see only 2 apps listed

- Android System at 3% and

- Google Services at 3%

At other times, I have only seen Android System at 3% and I have never seen it go above this 3%. I hence am never able to understand which apps are the battery hogging culprits.

I have not charged my phone since morning (battery has dropped from around 80% to around 40%) and used it extensively to browse internet, make phone calls, use flipboard, calendar, adobe reader, whatsapp, llama and a few other apps but none of them are being reflected under the Power usage section. I though find these apps to be active under my recent apps section.

I noticed this happening on the ViperOne 4.1.0 and 4.2.0 roms and strangely not on the CM11 rom that i tried for a few days in between.

I am presently using the latest ViperOne 4.2.0 rom with Bulletproof m7 10.3 kernel and was previously using the ViperOne 4.1.0 rom with the

Bulletproof m7 10.3 kernel.

Any inputs on how to fix to fix this much appreciated. Thanks
