Lenovo P8 - After Rooting - improvements

After Rooting device we can few things (no custom roms there,no developing)...

for example, we can open MultiWindow, themes,emoji changer(android O) & some build.prop tweaks (for the better operation of the device)

_How to Enable Multi-Window : open buildprop line & change the value of build type from user to userdebug & Reboot device... (In developer options will see a new choise : Multi-window mode) ≥ see the second screenshot..

__Enable multiwindow mode with two ways: using an app from playstore very easy,(build.prop editor,Root Essentials etc) or using adb & pc : https://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-enable-multi-window-mode-android-t3121483

_ build prop tweaks_ [ Make sure that you take a complete backup of your rom using twrp ! ] & backup your currently buildprop settings....

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 (Force launcher into memory)

ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100 (for JPEGs higher quality)

media.stagefright.enable-player=true (*)

media.stagefright.enable-meta=true (*)

media.stagefright.enable-scan=true (*)

media.stagefright.enable-http=true (*)

media.stagefright.enable-rtsp=true (*)

media.stagefright.enable-record=false (*)

ro.config.hw_fast_dormancy=1 (Better signal)

ro.config.hw_quickpoweron=true (Faster boot)

debug.performance.tuning=1 (Increases touch responsiveness)

ro.config.nocheckin=1 (this disables sending of usage data)

debug.sf.nobootanimation=1 (this disables boot animation for faster boot time but maybe has a risk sometimes)

(*) = less video buffering on streaming services & videos streaming faster

(build.prop tweaks for battery life - reduced battery consumption)

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=180 (This conserves battery life but may come with side effects as wifi points not showing up as fast)

pm.sleep_mode=1

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0

ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay = 1000

[for Better RAM management(& better work of Launcher), faster & better streaming videos, better signal, faster boot, tweaks for improved performance & disables sending of usage data(for example to Lenovo!)]

__ from Root Essentials buildprop, the backup is mandatory....From other app, (buildprop editor etc) we get backup the current buildprop settings before all this!! because all these have a risks! (maybe bootloop)
