[How To] FIX APP LAG

I could not find this on the Captivate Forum. I found this method on another forum referenced below. This has significantly increased the overall speed of my Captivate.
**REQUIRES ROOT**
**limits your App space to 130MB, which can possibly cause issues**
**Do NOT use with large number/size of apps**
**This should not be a permanent fix, but works until somethings else comes up**
**If you approach the size limit you will get errors and/or strange things**
Here is the original post. *READ THE THREADS!*

-also-
http://android.modaco.com/content/s...298/got-the-stalling-problem-rooted-try-this/
Note: This method moves the app data from the SD space to the NAND space which significantly increased the speed of the phone , but PLEASE read the links and associated discussion. You are limited to 130MB app space on NAND, which can be limiting depending on which apps you use.
The following can be done using adb or using terminal emulator (available on the Market) without the adb commands
How to check how much app memory you are currently using:
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /data/data
busybox du -h|busybox grep M
How to apply Method 1:
Code:
adb shell
su
busybox cp -rp /data/data /dbdata
mv /data/data /data/data.bak
ln -s /dbdata/data /data/data
reboot
How to undo Method 1 (no loss):
Code:
adb shell
su
busybox cp -rp /dbdata/data /data/data.tmp
rm -r /data/data
mv /data/data.tmp /data/data
reboot
How to undo Method 1 (restore to point of application):
Code:
adb shell
su
rm /data/data
mv /data/data.bak /data/data
reboot

so are you working on the method 2? building a kernel to run app data on the ex-sd card method. this method is okay but has limitation.
for those who have alot of apps, i wouldn't bother. you phone will constantly have forceclose notification. however, if you do not have too many apps, it does make your phone smoother and faster. done the bench mark and brought it up about 100 points. not bad for a quick/temp fix.
but... still need a REAL fix. Mimocan who was the builder for the kernel for i9000 should be working on a kernel for us. Unless he is now into the new froyo bull crap. not worth my time right now. trying to run the 2.1 smoothest possible is the key for me.

does this method or method 2 fix the laggy issues in Dolphin HD browser and Touchdown Exchange?

I don't use Dolphin, but it made a MASSIVE difference in using Touchdown.

Running this currently on my Captivate flashed with the I9000 JM2 ROM w/ Captivate Kernel & SamSet 1.6 and I am getting a ~960 on quadrant. During the test you can see the I/O portion goes SIGNIFICANTLY faster. App load times also feel faster. Samset includes MCR Scripts to set this up for you.
Note: I tried to post links but since I am new to the forum I was blocked.

This worked wonders for Dolphin HD! Thanks!

I cannot get the Android SDK to install on my computer so can't use ADB. What Terminal emulation program do you recommend and how would I connect my phone to it?

Do you have any downsides with flashing with the i9000 firmware? are you still limited to 130mb of app space?

If you read the modaco post Paul states that the 130 mb will take awhile to fill because the apps themselves are not stored but the data is.
"On the plus side, we're only moving data not the apps themselves, so filling up 130MB will take a while."
So that is good news I think I am going to try it. Thanks for the guy that posted how to check how much dbdata you have.

Works for me. Getting 980-1003 on Quadrant scores.

Just tried this. My captivate has been rather laggy and slow, specifically with apps such as twitter, facebook and pandora. I've been debating returning the phone and going back to iphone 4, but after the fix, it seems like a jump from an iphone 3g to a 4. Much snappier, but seeing that the custom kernel can yield 1500+ q scores, I'm actually not only hopeful, but excited about the future of the device.

too bad i cant apply the fix since i have 120 apps installed and they take up more than 130 MBs

As the previous poster said, its the application data space that is limited, not the space for actual apps. You can have a lot of apps installed, just not too many open and caching data.

I got a 973 running the stock Galaxy S I9000 and this fix. Not bad

Hmm I might have to give this a shot when I get home from work. Are most of you using this fix running stock Captivate rom?

Quadrant went from about 895 to 967. I can tell it's quicker. When I used to drag and drop apps and stuff there would be a lag, no lag now. I'm using a stock rom. This thing is going to be a monster once the modaco speed fix becomes available.

Ok before I did this I got a Quad score of 901. I checked my app data and I was at 120mb so just to make sure I deleted some apps I've never used and got down to 100mb. I did this (easy as pie BTW) and I got a Quad score of 951, but here's the deal. It booted completely from powered on to finishing "Scanning media" about x3 faster AND it was actually usable during "Scanning media", I don't know about anyone else but when it usually did that the phone was basically unusable during this period. So IMO even though it only gained like 50 points on Quad this thing is WAY faster with no lag that I can see zooming around between apps/launching them and such. Not a perma fix but this is a great band-aid till a real fix is found THANK YOU!!!!

Hmmm the more i read this thread the more i want to try this and according to the original poster its just as easy to undo as it is to set up so i guess there's nothing to loose.

well.. least we are takin steps in the right direction. i hear the kernal patch boosts your quadrant scores to about 1700.. so yeah. there's that to look forward to now.

[Q] Completed my first ever root + lagfix; have some questions!

After having the Vibrant for a few weeks I simply got fed up with the sluggish UI always lagging, having hiccups and all the latter. I know the phone is better than this (how can my old MyTouch Slide be performing way better?) so I went ahead and rooted.
Before this I would come on XDA and be overwhelmed by the development forums. The terms were so foreign like it's own language. Now I'm getting used to it and can root a Vibrant in under a minute. Very simple procedure.
My first real problem came with the lagfix. At first I could not get RyanZA's fix to work. I thought maybe I did something wrong or my device was faulty. So I tried the update.zip method and it didn't work either. I reset my phone to factory settings, re-rooted, and would come back to the lagfix later.
I came back to the forums today and decided I would try the lagfix again. This time I was more calm and was less overwhelmed thank god. The reason it didn't work the first time was because I didn't have the drivers installed. I went ahead and installed those, as well as Kies (this isn't needed for the lagfix though). After installing the drivers the script worked perfectly. However the script only worked if the phone wasn't mounted, if it was the script would not work, kinda odd but its alright with me lol.
I quickly rebooted and ran quadrant, scored a 2140 baby! Whoooo. There is almost no lag on my phone now. This was my biggest concern was how the phone was so sluggish, now everything is instant and snappy. Really happy with the development of this thing. I feel accomplished now haha.
---
Any how, I'm still very new to the development scene and have some questions.
What is a kernel? How is it different from a rom? Is it good to overclock?
What is ODIN and what does it do? What is ADB? Someone told me to input something in ADB but I don't know what it is.
Also how can you overclock a phone to run at 1.2ghz if the hardware was designed at 1ghz? Can't this make the phone blow up? (no sarcasm)
Now that I've rooted now do I remove the bloatware on the phone? I don't want to install any roms yet until cyanogen or another rom comes out that is easier to install and less harmful to the phone.
Thanks in advance!

It's not odd at all that the fix doesn't work if the memory is mounted. Think of the memory as a cd, it cannot be accessible to 2 machines at the same time. If the memory is mounted/accessible on your pc, that means the phone itself cannot access it and the fix uses that memory so it makes perfect sense for it to be NOT mounted.

What is a kernel? How is it different from a rom? Is it good to overclock?
A kernel is the core of the OS, it is the main part. Overclocking should not be a problem if you run tests(setcpu burnin or something else)to make sure the phone does not freeze.
What is ODIN and what does it do? What is ADB? Someone told me to input something in ADB but I don't know what it is.
ODIN is a software written by samsung that is used to reflash the firmware/ROM on the phone.
ADB(Android developer bridge)is basically a program which let's you copy and retrieve software onto your phone using the CLI, also it let's you run cli commands on the phone from your computer(much more convenient). ADB is part of the google developers package which can be downloaded from Google fro free.
Also how can you overclock a phone to run at 1.2ghz if the hardware was designed at 1ghz? Can't this make the phone blow up? (no sarcasm)
The phone will not blow up, if the overclocking frequency is higher then what the phone can handle 99 out of 100 times it will just freeze with no permanent damage. A phone's enemy is high heat, not overclocking, eventhough some overclocking causes temperatures to increase.
Now that I've rooted now do I remove the bloatware on the phone? I don't want to install any roms yet until cyanogen or another rom comes out that is easier to install and less harmful to the phone.
Removing bloatware can be done by installing "ASTRO" from the market which will let you uninstall system apps. Some are easy to recognize and some are not. If you are not sure what an app is/does do not remove it.
Thanks in advance!

I downloaded Astro. For some reason I can't even find the .apk file to uninstall the Sims. I tried to uninstall apps like Kindle and Slacker and it wouldn't let me. I thought having superuser permissions would allow me to remove any app from the phone?

Use titanium back up to remove those apps.

Thanks! That app worked! I removed a crap ton of bloatware. Only problem now is that I get a force close error when the phone boots up from an app I removed, how do I regulate which apps open when the phone is turned on?

[ROM] BitTrix gingerbread beta 06 - Updated 18-Feb-11

UPDATED 18-FEB-2011
==========================
beta 06
==========================
update to gingerbread 2.3.2 - Compiled from AOSP, CyanogenMod, other online sources and I wrote/tweaked/swore a bit too. Coding with gingerbread is like playing a nasty game of whack-a-mole.
now compiling with updated toolchain optimized for tegra / cortex-A9 processors
includes Clemsyn's kernel (Pershoot's works too)
includes gapps and working 3D maps
removed most of the overt CyanogenMod graphics and branding to avoid confusion with their official builds
reverted memory naming: internal storage is emmc, removable sd-card is sdcard. Sorry for the flip but this is the future for tablets. Apps should be reading the mount points properly regardless of the device type or naming scheme.
USB connection (via UMS) mounts to /sdcard and no longer makes the fs unstable (I hope). If you don't have a removable SD card then ADB still mounts to internal storage.
bunch of behind-the-scenes code and framework optimizations for stability, smoothness. Still not as fast as froyo but waaaay better than beta05. YMMV.
Special thanks to the real devs and gurus: clemsyn, gojimi, pershoot, rothnic, roebeet
This will probably be near the end of my involvement with the 2.3 codebase. Tablets like this really need the architectural changes in honeycomb (3.X+) especially real SMP. Also when looking for performance tweaks I keep running face-first into the fact that the PROPRIETARY nvidia drivers {spit on the floor} make their own superchip look like a Z80 on a hot day (yes, it's a Zilog reference. yes, I'm old). Also... There's only one of me.
INSTALLING: READ CAREFULLY AND OBEY.
save the bittrix-beta...zip to your internal memory
use CM .8 and install the zip
when the install finishes, stay in CM... wipe data/factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik, stay in CM...
install the zip again. Failure to do this means wifi won't work unless you flash a standalone Clemsyn or Pershoot gingerbread kernel.
reboot.
USE NOTES:
First boot may ask what startup to proceed with - either will do - i pick "startup wizard" (it doesn't run the wizard, but you have to pick one...)
The system will feel a bit slow the first time as the system is busy parsing/precompiling the java files. Things get much faster as you use it.
Google app framework is installed. Your best install for the individual apps is to load them yourself from the market. The first-time app picker is hit/miss.
Market won't show installed apps until you buy one.
Camera is borked for now.
This should be considered as an experimental build, with all the usual disclaimers about turning your tablet to slag, crossing the streams, starting a game of global thermonuclear war, etc. It's not an official CM release. Editing the source and messing with the module packaging feels like I just leaned a bit too far down the rabbit hole. Please be patient with me, I have a day job.
Changelog:
19Jan initial release - Compilation from 19Jan CM7 git
21Jan beta02 - new merges, updated kernel, fixed: USB, Angry Birds
22Jan beta03 - newest CM7 base plus first source edits! framework text now displays "tablet" instead of "phone" in spots, fixed camera orientation. Set screen dpi to 120 (match actual panel) from 160.
23Jan beta04 - x-y screen metrics and scaling. Some text should appear visibly sharper now if rendered correctly. Removed cell & phone system files. Internal memory is now /sdcard, removable memory is now /sdext.
PC should now see both internal partitions over USB cable. pull-down menu (drag down the top statusbar) has soft buttons to toggle wifi, bluetooth, location, and sound (CM7 feature).
24Jan beta05 - fixed mount points, changed framebuffer timing to 70Hz, no more cell signal indicator, UI fixes, added "never" screen timeout option, enabled dock settings (can't test, I don't have one, YMMV)
18-Feb beta06 - update to 2.3.2.
without further ado...
beta06:

RELATED LINKS:
Updated kernel: Clemsyn now supports gingerbread with his kernel builds. Support for most TLA and FLA is included. In the event of issues you can just reflash the bittrix beta. They're at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895825
Updated kernel: Pershoot is cooking up some amazing kernel goodness - I think I saw eye of newt and a stick of dynamite in one of the .conf files his thread is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903505 - he provides the extra functionality modules as separate files, so the more adventurous among you can roll-your-own (so to speak).
Official CM7 Betas: GoJimi's official CM7 beta is going strong. It's mostly from the same codebase and will give you the same look and feel. If you're at all squeamish about trying new builds I recommend using it instead. it's at post#18 in this topic... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10733279&postcount=18

Oh now THIS is gonna be GOOOOOOD.....
Downloading now!

And I was about to go to sleep.....

Hey thanks. Any way you can provide known issues? Is wifi, bluetooth, the g sensor, camera, adobe flash etc working? Also, do you have quadrant scores and screen shots?

Got it flashed. Seems VERY fast.
So far I've noticed the following:
1. Camera is sideways
2. No audio on speakers until I plug/unplug headphones.
3. Phone APKs appear to be loaded? I'm showing a little cell phone signal meter.
4. Wifi works fine.

video please!

1. Also noticed that camera orientation is incorrect.
2. Micro SD properly mounted in /sdcard now.
3. Internal storage is now in /emmc
4. Settings properly shows storage for internal and microsd
5. Can't mount storage on pc
6. Can confirm that 3d Maps is working.
7. Haven't been able to get Quadrant to run completely
8. Wasn't able to restore Angry Birds from Titanium Backup
9. No fancy power off screen animation
First time using Cyanogen Mod, so some of this may already be known.

Legend, thanks!! Giving this a crack now
Edit: As stated in the first post the drive mappings are different - external SD is /sdcard and internal sd is /emmc
This has implications for Titanium Backup when you try to restore your USER DATA (user data only, don't restore system data)
Copy the contents of /emmc/titaniumbackup to /sdcard/titaniumbackup using Root Explorer or similar.
Titanium will now see all of your old backups.
Rockplayer wont play movies in Hardware Decode mode. Software decode mode is jerky.
Coming from VEGAn 5.1 I find this rom a bit laggy
Flash not working on the sites I tested - www.abc.net.au/news/abcnews24/
It's a great first effort and still worth booting up to see it. Might go back to TnT Lite for a bit

bittrix said:
Here goes... My first (successful) attempt at compiling from source. This is Cyanogen Mod 7.0.0RC0 compiled from the latest sources as of this evening. It's a real-live taste of gingerbread This uses Bekit's 2.6.32.9 kernel and brings things up to Android 2.3.1
Use CM .8, wipe data & cache, and install as update. If you're installing over TnT Lite: failure to wipe the user data will give you never-ending tap n touch keyboard FCs.
You'll need to install the market (see below).
This should be considered as an experimental build, with all the usual disclaimers about turning your tablet to slag, starting global thermonuclear war, etc.
It is important to note that my role in this is "guy who compiled other people's source". I am nerd, but neither guru nor dev.

Regarding the Angry Birds not installing issue - something in the crypto loop device probably isn't working for apps that try to install to SD. That's what Android tries to put on /sdcard (or /emmc in this case? not sure how this gets handled with the changed mount points). Could also be crap in /emmc (specifically, in the .secure or .android_secure, whatever it's called directory) from a prior ROM install that needs to be deleted. Or using a kernel that's not compiled with all the right options (make sure you're using a kernel that's known good from other installs - clemsyn or pershoot's kernels, or the kernel rothnic compiled for Vegan 5.1beta should all be good).
Also Roebeet, Rothnic and Gojii all dealt with the sound issues on TNT Lite and Vegan, so might be worth asking them about how they resolved that.
Not sure about the USB sticking in debug mode issue, you'll have to dig around and figure that one out.

reminds me very much of zpad clean 3, which i love but has auto brightness missing.
however, it seems as if cifs isnt built in. is there a cifs.ko i can insmod in this rom?

Thanks! Knowing where to look is my biggest problem. I really only started this so I could make my USB GPS work in the car, and expect the real devs will be along shortly with stuff that's not so experimental. This is literally the first working OS I've ever compiled

I have installed it and very nice. I am coming from vegan and robeet is really nice and will help. they are working on a new platform right now as well.

Time to start playing.
Thanks for the link!

LOL ROE i was just talking about you..... Yeah its pretty nice Iam at work so i cant play with it but so much but can you make it faster quad scores like 1045. the gapp functions is sweet as well. Plays movies a little choppy but i have to see once i load everything up. USB/sdcard2 detection is good money.

The update.zip is completely ripped out, which is actually quite nice from a modding perspective.
Some of the reported issues are things gojimi / rothnic had dealt with on the VEGAn build, so the fixes might be similar. As for me, I'm all about packaging. Right now I just want to look at this and get a feel for it.
I'm assuming that the big issue is lack of hardware acceleration? I'll know for sure once I test it - this is again something that gojimi wanted to work on once he had his Gingerbread rig setup.
EDIT: Yep, video acceleration is not there. Sounds like this is all still "alpha-code" stuff, so keep that in mind. Just nice to see this next step, but definitely not a replacement for your Froyo build (yet).

Wow bit Great work!!
Cant wait until some of the issues are ironed out which I am sure will be done very quickly with the dev team we have working on this device!

any screen shot or something? Eager minds are waiting..

Congrats on Compiling Your First ROM
Congrats on Compiling Your First ROM! I love seeing others trying there hand at compiling. You can learn a great deal about the Android system and how it operates. That being said. This is not an official release of Cyanogen Mod 7.0.0. We should be careful when posting our non Official releases of CM7 as it can cause confusion for the uninitiated.
Here is a link to the Official BETA 1. http://vegantab.gojimi.com/download/update-cm-7.0.0-Beta1-Harmony-signed.zip
This Official ROM still has alot of the same issues as the original ROM but is using the proper kernel, etc. This is brought to you by Bekit and Scepterr and the rest of CM development team (myself included now... though I haven't done anything as of yet.... just got my Development Machine up and running).
Also for the time being until I can get the fix into CM7 this will fix the speakers so they are on at boot. Install it like you would any other app. There is no launcher link to this app... it starts at boot fixes audio and then kills itself till the next boot. http://vegantab.gojimi.com/download/audiofix.apk
Again... Congrats to the original poster for compiling cm7! hopefully we will see you join in on our development discussions!

One thing you could start looking at is merging in the performance pack considering that cyanogenmod is at ~2400 quadrant without it. I am curious if there would be any change if you can get it working with CM.

*** Galaxy Tab Master Tweak Thread***

Hi everyone.
Id like to start a thread where we collect, post and discuss all known individual tweaks and changes that can be made to the Galaxy Tab in order to gain performance and stability.
My experience with the Galaxy Tab has been similar to my latest phone, an HTC HD2. When I got the HD2 about one year ago, I positively hated it... slow, unstable, all sorts of problems, lags, crashes... its the way most of the hardware today is released. One year later, my HD2 has become the most amazing machine I've ever owned. From pushing it 1.6GHz stable, to tweaking registry, XML files, services and making everything work well. I remember not being able to watch smooth video on the HD2 to being able to watch flawlessly 720p content and going from the extreme of detesting the phone to loving it.
It was with the HD2 I discovered Android and fell in love with it. Since I have now two HD2s I have one with an SD ROM version of Gingerbread (that I can dual boot still from Windows Mobile) and a Froyo NAND. I run Android on the HD2 much much much faster and smoother than on the Galaxy Tab, that I also hated when I bought it a few weeks and that am starting to like after getting to know it, a new ROM, apps, etc. Even at 1GHz stock the HD2 with Froyo is vastly faster, smoother, more responsive and better to use. The approach d like to do as far as tweaking the Galaxy Tab is the same as I did for the HD2 with Windows Mobile, that is, install the best/fastest ROM I can, delete and remove all stuff I don't need and then tweak what's left.
The tweaks I've done so far on the Galaxy are simple but have made a huge difference. Id like with this thread to be able to collect individual tweaks and post them all here to share with everyone.
Im using Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2 which was the main step after getting rid of the stock Samsung Rom that is nothing but a collection of problems.
The first thing I learned with this Tab is that WHATEVER IS ON YOUR HOME SCREENS THAT MOVES, IS BAD! Forget about having ANY type of apps or widgets that do any type of refresh, including stuff running on the upper task bar if they change icons or the move around… that mean a CPU cycle and refresh each time and there goes the tab's performance and battery life. The same goes for any type of Live Wallpaper. Beautiful but deadly. Never touch them!
- So, after a new ROM, the first thing I did was changing the file system to EXT4. This is the SINGLE BEST THING you can do to radically improve the performance of the Tab. Its extremely easy to do and the step-by-step instructions are as follow:
- Make sure you have an miniSD Card in with plenty of available space (it will be used automatically to backup your system during the conversion process)
- Get p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm.tar (the EXT4 Conversion Kernel)
- Connect the Tab in Downloading Mode to your PC via USB, start Odin3 1.7 and load the Kernel (click on the PDA button and select the p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm.tar and make sure PDA stays ticked after selecting the file).
- UNTICK Re-Partition check box and make sure the only boxes ticked are:
Auto Reboot
F. Reset Time
The PDA tickbox
- Click start and wait for PASS! (it will show highlighted green or Yellow on Odin)
- Now the Tab will restart and get stuck on the Samsung loading screen. This is normal. Turn it off by holding the power button for 5 seconds.
- Turn on the Tab again on into RECOVERY mode (Press Volume UP and Power On at the same time) and the EXT4 conversion will start automatically. The process will take up to one hour depending on how much stuff you have on your Tab. It took about 10 minutes on mine because I have a fresh install of Roto JMI v2.
- Once finished, click "Reboot System Now" (by pressing the power button).
- The reboot may take a while first time so be patient!
- Done!
- After that, the first tweak I did was to get rid of all my favorite widgets that moved around… net meter, news, weather and all these beautiful things KILL the Tab. Equally I had a CPU meter on the tray refreshing every 2 seconds and it took me a while to figure out that was the reason why every 2 seconds the system would stutter, whether watching a movie or browsing the web. So, out!
- Next was to install SetCPU under the ON DEMAND setting, minimum around 750MHz and maximum 1000MHz (unfortunately only with a custom Kernel you can go higher, currently up to 1.4GHz but not full stable and with lots of issues pending so I don’t recommend it)
- My following step was to get rid of the stock Samsung Homescreen (that is a resource hog and slow as hell) and replace it with a new one. I've tried them all and am making no recommendation here but the one that works for me and is by far the best IMO is LauncherPro. This single app makes using the Tab a whole better experience.
- Next was to disable the USELESS and (resource pig) Gallery and replace it with an app called QuickPic that is blazing fast (actually instant) and simply amazing to browse and view all media on the Tab.
- Next was to greatly improve the poor native GPS reception by replacing high performance files and drivers from the Orange Rom P1000JHKA1 that seems to work on all versions of the Tab, as originally posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922692
- With SystemApp Remover 4.12 I have disabled all system apps and services I don’t need (BE VERY CAREFUL AND DON'T REMOVE ROM APPS YOU WILL NEED). I have actually deleted some from ROM (Root access required of course), this includes useless stuff like STK Service starting every time, most of the Samsung stuff that I really don’t care for and just about all apps I know for sure I will never open a single time. Now, its important to understand if these apps are removed they will be removed PERMANENTLY from ROM so to get the back a hard reset will not be enough, you'll have to fully flash the ROM again. For most system apps I don’t use but am not sure, I use a different option and that is to simply disable them. In my case this includes all Bluetooth stuff (I never use it and even if it's off the Services are still running robbing performance and memory) and apps like the built-in Browser, Email and Messaging that suck and that I replaced with better apps. Its always a safer bet, at least initially to disable the apps you don’t need that uninstall them because at least you can go back and change your mind This is one area where Id like to learn more. There are many background services that I don’t know what they do and if they can be disabled or not. If someone knows what each one does and the safety of getting rid of them OR NOT, it would be great to post it here!
- Them, with Startup Auditor 2.3.2 I have disabled all unnecessary apps that start automatically every time the Tab boots so I don't have excess applications starting up that are not needed. Some I configured to be killed AGAIN if the system tries to restart them later after the boot-up
- Using Task Manager 1.0.7 and letting always run on background, I have configured all apps that I don’t need running to be auto-killed every time the phone goes to stand-by (screen off). This saves me lots of memory and CPU time on apps that I am actually not using.
- Finally, I monitor what is going on with an app called CPU Usage Timeliness Free 1.7.1.0 and use it to see EXACTLY which applications are using CPU cycles and interfering with performance. With it I have found that on my Tab I have an unsolved problem that is using over 100MB of memory and non-stop CPU usage between 15% and 45% of something called SECURITY STORAGE. I have no idea what it does. It can't be disabled and I don’t know where all the activity comes from. If someone know more about this and how to fix it, that will be great. Most of the performance issues I have on my Tab come from this Service that I don’t know how to tame. Surely, we can find a solution.
The system background services is one area where I'd like to know one by one, what each service does and if we need them or not, if it can be tweaked, disabled or deleted. Below is a complete list of the services I have safely disabled so far that have given me great performance boosts and with no negative issues on the system (IN BOLD), and OTHERS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT (not bold). Please note these are background services that start automatically. The changes made to the disabled apps/services is that they are reverted to ON-DEMAND so they all still work perfectly.

Originally with my Tab I was getting Quadrant below 600 on average. Now, its always over 1900. This is not a "little" improvement, this is amazing upgrading. But id like this to be a starting point to learn and share more ways with everyone we can all share on things we can do to make the Tab as good as it was intended to be for everyone
Cheers!

1.4 oc is stable, and doesn't have any issues for alot of users.
all the things you disabled are all the things i use every day lol
never the less, good post, im going to use a couple apps you mentioned.

The first block of disabled items (in bold) from CALENDAR to WORLD CLOCK are disabled start-ups but the apps works as usual. It just frees resources not required on boot till you actually start the application when you want.
The second block from Bluetooth Services to Voice Search are all disabled as I use none of those. Items disabled can be restarted again at any time upon activating them follwing a reboot, while items deleted (like Samsung Apps and STK) are gone forever.
Ive never flashed a ModaCo Kernel and got lots of feedback regarding probelms with 1.4OC. Do you have any issues at all or none? We are using different ROMs... What Quadrant do you get currently?
Cheers

Thank you for your post.
You have solved many of my questions. Also I am User of HD2 and had the same impressions, but now with Android Nand everything was great, also started to love it.
As for GTAB'll make those adjustments you suggested, some will not disable because I use Bluetooth as an example.
Any news please keep posting.
Success!

So far the oc is good, things load a little faster, especially nfs shift. Last run of quadrant was 2300-2400.
Ill try it again later after these optimizations and see how it goes, a member here has gotten 3000.

Having done nothing but root, my tab gets about 1000 quadrant score. I have tried setcpu using on demand and it actuall has made my tab worse. I am very hesitant to flash anything on the tab. It seems very involved and complicated. I have an HD2 as well and have been flashing since Android was on SD. That process is simple. Everything I have read about flashing things to the tab doesn't look that way. I really havent had any issues with my tab as stock other than a bit laggy at times. I would like to hear more about all of this. The oppinions I have read are either do it or don't do it. There are more problem posts after attempting to flash than there are good ones where it worked. I really could care less about a quadrant score to be honest, but I would like to have a faster smoother running tab. I really dont care about making calls on it either. Thats why I have a phone. JMO. I think part of the issue in this thread is that there are Euro and USA version which are completely different and require different roms and such.
I have been reading and lurking in the tab development thread for a while now and am not impressed with any of it yet. Maybe someone could shed some light on things and change my mind.

I agree. The process of flashing the Galaxy is much more dauting than anything on the HD2. I suggest you do the EXT4 file converstion. All you need is follow the step by step I wrote above. It makes a huge difference. As for everything else, I too hold off to do too much flashing. The ROM I use now is great and lighter than stock but your seems to work well so keep it. For me when a ROM is good I just use it. When I bought the HD2 I flashed it 2 times with a custom ROM till i found one that worked for me and kept it for 8 months. But backing up and restoring WinMo is much easier... on Androind its all more complicated if you dont know what you are doing. Disable some start-ups on your unit, convert the file system to EXT4 and make sure you have nothing on your home screen doing a lot of refreshing and your tab will work great

Is everything working 100% on that ROM? I do not want any ROMS that are having problems.

I too am not impressed with anything that us out yet...seems like any ROM process is tedious and complicated.
Glad the thread starter modified his tab to his liking, but what's the point of having it if you need to drastically change everything. I have a rooted DInc and not use any of things......didn't really see a performance gain with set CPU.
I'm going to continue waiting for something more reliable and use my tab the way it was meant to be, with all its hardware and widgets.

Thank you for your detailed post. While I agree with you that the stock SGT rom and browser suck but where do you think the JMI, JMF, JMx ROMs coming from?
Most ROMs I've seen (except for CM) are based from some sort of Jxx
Please keep the tweak posts going. Good stuff and thanks!

My boy,
Only getting my Galaxy tomorrow but looking through threads on my favorite forum.
And guess the first one I happen into... I will follow avidly.

Hi dubie76,
Try an app called OCLF 2.0 on the Market. It is a Lag fix app for the Samsung Galaxy S which also works on the Tab.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rc.QuickFixLagFixR2
You have to install EXT2 tools and then install one click lag fix, both are done within the app.
I had this on my Tab before flashed to a custom ROM. The tab was much faster and did not have and lag compared to stock, the Quadrant score was around 1900.
Also you can uninstall the modifications in the app and easily reverse back to stock. The only disadvantage is you will loss about 800mb of internal memory (the 2Gb space), so if you don't have much space left, you will need to uninstall some apps and reinstall them once you applied the lag fix.
P.S. thanks to OP for the SystemApp Remover & Startup Auditor suggestion.

Custom ROMs?
Hi everyone!
Consider this:
The locked GTab (in standby) on an original ROM with a connected to it BT headset wakes up after replying a call from BT and can potentially have anything pressed as being in the bag due to its size...
My point is that there is NO fix for this on XDA therefore why should I expect any significant advancements from a custom ROM if such simple things cannot be fixed on Android.
My personal view is that Android is unfortunatelly not as flexible for adjustments as WinMo (i have HD2 as well with a wonderful custom Artemis ROM).
I've tried two Roto ROMs on my GT and they havent provided any noticeable enhancements in performance to my eye (perhaps some rating went up - I dont care about tech stats). I reverted to stock ROM P1000XWJMI that works as fast for a "regular user".
I am sad to resume my experience with hacking the GT as not worth it: you get serious risk of getting the GT bricked (much more complicated than with WinMo), loose the warranty and are open for instability and sudden incompatibilities with crashes.
On the third custom ROM installation attempt I was stuck on a black screen after powering on (stuck on the bootloader!) and couldnt initiate flash for multiple times. I was shocked and very nervous. Thats when the stock ROM saved my ass and I am not willing the risk of playing around any more with non-firmware ROMs for Android GT.
Regarding the alternative screen lockers available - please do not suggest Screen Suite (the best of the worst) and things like No-Lock (to get rid of the original locker) as they all mess up once in a while (tested) with the default ROM settings and the original core locker.
PS
In my view the best thing we can and should do first of all is to COMPLAIN to SAMSUNG Tech Support and Software Developers (I did twice already).
If every one of us from theese GTab forums would do this they would definitely get faster with resolving issues.

CPU maxing @ full speed, 100% load after 24-48 hrs? FIX FOUND!

First off, I cannot take credit for finding this, I was referred to a bug report thread on the Google Android site by XDA user aweaver33, who I thank VERY much for pointing me on the right direction.
So, several of us have had this issue with various custom kernels, where after typically 24-48 hours, the phone would slow to a crawl. If you were to open an app like System Panel, you would see that the CPU load was pegged at 95%+, and speed would be maxed out. You would also see that the process using all the CPU is Android System.
The problem has to do with the file "time_in_state", which literally keeps track of how much time the CPU spends at any given speed in MHz. There is a limit to the size this file is supposed to reach, 256 bytes. Once it exceeds this size, the next time Android tries to access it, it flips out and gets stuck trying, and pegs the CPU. A lot of devs and users blamed SetCPU, and it is true that SetCPU does have an EFFECT on this issue, it does NOT cause it, and indeed the issue can occur whether SetCPU is installed or not.
The issue is brought on by custom kernels that add additional frequency steps for the CPU to choose from, which causes that log file to grow. Which is why older or stock kernels will not cause this. Some ROMS incorporate a workaround so you may not have this issue.
Anyways, the issue is explained better in the link aweaver33 gave me. I will link to the original thread I posted with the conversation we had and the link he gave. I can confirm that, using the info he gave me, the issue has been fixed. I am currently just over 120 hours of uptime with no problems.
Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082363&highlight=stock+kernel+gpu+
EDIT: attached the script files for those who want them. You can drop one or the other (NOT BOTH) in /etc/init.d if your rom has this folder already (creating the folder and adding it won't work), or you can download Autostart (root) from the market for free, and drop the file in /data/opt (create the opt folder). This difference between the two is one runs only once at boot, the other runs every five minutes. If you use SetCPU, you need the one that runs every five mins, as every time you open SetCPU it resets permissions on the time_in_state file.

flashable zip? not everyone is comfortable with code and scripts

If I knew how, I would. I wasn't even comfortable with it. But I was so tired of the locking up, I was willing to try anything (after a Nandroid of course). I'm not sure you *could* do this in a flashable zip. I can post the script I'm using. It only runs once after reboot, unlike aweaver's, which runs every five mins (good if you're using SetCPU, as opening SetCPU resets the permissions of the time in state file).
This script should work if dropped into /etc/init.d. *If* your ROM has that folder by default. Mine does not, so I had to download a free app from the market called Autostart which is free and very small. For that app you create a folder in /data/ and drop the script in there.
Sorry guys but I'm no dev so this is the best I can do, maybe someone else can make it flashable?

would it also be fixed by simply deleteing the log file as well rather than setting it to unreadable

It can't be deleted. System instantly replaces it.

Issue 9733 is still listed as New, so either Google hasn't fixed it in Gingerbread or they just don't bother statusing their bug reports.

Why do you feel the need to delete it? If you are trying to delete it, you are likely using Root Explorer. Why not just use that to change the permissions of the file? Tap and hold, select permissions, and unchecked all permissions except for the top left one. This will stop the bug, but the permissions will be reset after a reboot, or after opening SetCPU.
I imagine that deleting the file might actually cause FC's or may cause the same bug but I dunno since it wont delete.

I've never created a flashable zip before, but I'd be willing to look into it if the demand is really there. The problem I see is that I'd have to make certain assumptions about how everybody's ROMs are configured. It looks like the most portable approach would be to append a line to the end of /bootcomplete.inc.rc. Do people really find it easier to boot into recovery and flash a zip than to add one line to a file themselves? Personally, I'm always hesitant to flash a zip other than a full ROM because I'd be uncertain how it interacts with other changes I've made to my system.
