[APP][21/11/2008] NoTSR - A very little tool to restore memory

Hi.
When using my Diamond I noticed some processes don't disappear when they should. They fill up memory. Either you kill 'em with some Task Manager, or you soft reset.
Don't wanna SR or kill processes manually? Let my thing do it for you!
NoTSR is a very very simple program which kills some predefined processes, based on my experience with Diamond.
Source code (eVC++ 4) is for you to use and modify whatever you want. However, it would be nice if you gave me some credit if using it!
Have fun!
p. s. Sorry for the icon.

If anyone is wondering, this is what it kills off (copied straight from the source code):
"Opera9.exe", // everything still loads well
"OperaPreL.exe", // after killing them
"pword.exe", // for some reason Pocket Word leaves its process even after leaving
"CommManager.exe", // other Office apps seem to be fixed
"AudioManager_eng.exe", // last ones are opened by manila for quicker loading of tabs.
"AlbumSearcher.exe" // killing AudioManager stops music and rewinds current track.

I keep getting a "Can't list processes" dialog box when I launch the app. I tried placing the NoTSR.exe within in the extracted NoTSR subdirectory and also outside the subdirectory.

I can confirm that.
What did we wrong? Do we have to place it in a special folder, like windows?

It worked for me, but my phone was very sluggish after running the app and I had to soft reset to bring it back to par.
Thanks for starting this development, there is definitely a gap to be filled by it, I use oxios hibernate and a task manager to finish off opera .exe, this is much easier to use and your icons not so bad either!

Thanks for positive feedback. I wonder why th sluggish reaction. Loading of opera as well as some TF3D tabs will for sure be slower, but whole phone is weird. After all, it just kills and leaves (see src if unsure). I use NoTSR myself and I got no problems at all. Maybe you could test it again and if it slows down show the list of processes?
@others: try using the app with rest closed. It should work in any folder; I keep it in my docs and launch via Start.
Thanks again for interest!

same error message for me. sprint touch pro with jd6.1 rom

I can't reproduce that error to analyze and fix it, so I post new version which tells you what went wrong. Try with it.

trying now

OK, so I've been using the NoTSR app for a couple of days and I can't reproduce the lag that I had when I first ran it, odd. I think it may be something to do with the fact that when I first ran it it was from within file explorer, after using it I could not get explorer to open up again properly. Now I have put a shortcut in my windows/start up/programs folder and I am running it from my start menu everything seems just fine and is all working as it should with no sluggish side effect, so thanks again kosherpig for the very useful app.

SKTools Lite (free) comes with a small program called "Free up ram." During SKTools Lite install, it will tell you something about your windows version, just click through that and let it install.
Once it's installed, go to your programs page and you'll see it there: "Free Up RAM". Just run it once. It will look like nothing is opening, but its because it's working in the background. You'll get a message box very shortly telling you how much ram (in KB) you freed up.
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_lite.html
I use it all the time. Brings me from 45 -50 down to 35-40. Lowest I've seen was 32%.

Our programs are slightly different. My one doesn't free RAM by itself; it closes processes which won't close by a "close all" command. And NoTSR is not resident (after all its name is No Terminate-Stay-Resident ). Its goal is to be as small as possible, also in term of occupied disk space (~9kB now). Maybe this SKTools and NoTSR could be used in conjunction to free up even more RAM?
And, I also got the error message 2 times.
1st when I was running FM radio.
2nd when I was at the Music tab.
I solved them:
1st by closing FM radio and invoking NoTSR. Everything went OK.
2nd switched to the Home tab. NoTSR failed again. Waited some seconds, ran again. OK now.
Solution: fails? Shut everything using the HTC task manager, go to today/home screen, and invoke NoTSR after some time. I can say the behavior is really weird, since my code doesn't depend on running apps.
However, I run NoTSR everytime after using Opera. I got that error 2 times in my whole usage.
Anyways. Thanks for all responses

I find "Oxios Hibernate" frees up more ram than sk tools "free up ram" does, it is also free, but must be run manually, a useful addition to any start menu.
I'm getting about 10 mb back with NoTSR after opera browsing, "free up ram" or "hibernate" practically nothing back after opera browsing. Basically if you use opera then this is a "must have".

A small update.
If you know when Oxios Hibernate works and NoTSR fails, check this exe out. I tried to contain the Hibernate in it.
This version is bugged.
Please use version from 1st post.
If you ran this version already perform a soft reset.
Sorry for inconvinience.

it lowers your memory usage by 10%???
To me it goes from 63% to 61%...
On my Diamond
thats frustrating...

Hi there, trying to use this app I'm getting the same error as others...
"Can't list processes: The parameter is incorrect. (#0)"
Task Manager is empty, I've tried leaving it on the home screen for 20 secs and running it but still the same problem.
Any ideas? I'd really like to get this working as Dutty 3.1 does appear to suffer from this memory problem.
EDIT.... OK, did a reset and it's working fine. I'll play with it over the next day or so, and fingers crossed Dutty 3.1 will be good enough for me as I don't need YouTube.
EDIT2... Worked for a while, now has the same problem as earlier.

Are you using the version form 1st post?
If not, please use it.
By the way, something is really wrong... AFAIK "Invalid parameter" has error code 87, 0 is "success". I've looked at program code to see where I could mess up memory, but I saw no such places. Help with finding this bug (you've got the source) would be very appreciated.

hi kosherpig
can you add a settings file where we can put our personal process to stop?
I've try to modify the source but I'm not able to compile it

Hi Kosherpig, I am using the version from the 1st post.
I'm happy to help finding the bug, but not sure what to do here! I THINK it stopped working after I used TomTom7, but can't be sure.
It's only 1635 and it's down to 16% battery already (I think this is a problem with Dutty 3.1), so I don't want to do lots of tests. However, when I'm home and charging it, I'll try each app individually until I pin point which one "causes" the problem.
Does this help? Anything else you want me to try?

Hi kosherpig, getting on great with NoTSR now, I just have one small idea that it would be nice to show the memory stats in the pop up dialogue in a similar way to oxios hibernate. Unless of course this would significantly affect the size and speed of the app, in that case I think it is easy enough to check on the memory usage other ways with a couple of quick taps.

Evolution [Release update info : See last post]

Hello all,
Finally iam releasing this rom which is in a next level than any other wm 6.5 or 6.5.x rom only for viva in the sense that it has got some major modifications.

Dude as i said its for testing purpose if u are asking this with the intention of daily usage then plz remember that this rom is in beta and not for daily purpose, if u would like me to complete this evolution rom which i said is completely a next level then please go ahead and test it and report back

feedback!!
heres all the things i noticed:
-when i get out of the start menu to home screen....it keeps showing the previous page.....i guess thats because of the lack of titanium.
-please add showcase, since theres no task manager lots of programs remain open and the phone becomes slow in a few minutes.
-bluetooth OK
-wifi OK
-When IE starts it says cannot open blank page....but then works fine.
-When i get an incoming call, i cannot see the name or the number of the person calling.
-When i make an outgoing call theres a scroll bar on the right...for which i see no purpose.
Hope this helps.....what you've done looks good....hope you can figure out solutions for the problems i mentioned......thanks again.....

I just saw those details, but I like that is clean, with nothing changed, looks like a rom drawn from Microsoft, and that is what we all

my feedback
download size is 39.42 which is 7z compressed.
i am downloading it now...will give my feedback soon.
congrats on your release, jagan!!!
Feedback==================
Bugs
#1: Vibrate not working. Phone does not vibrate when set to vibrate mode.
#2: In the Lockscreen, you have to tap 'Unlock' twice to really unlock.
#3: After running some programs (ex. PPC PimBackup) the phone becomes very slow. I checked the processes using FcdSoft Task Manager v3.1 and found one of the process 'cprog.exe' was consuming about 60% - 80% of the CPU resource. I 'killed' it and it becomes okay again...
#4: In USB-to-PC pop-up, there is no 'Storage Device'!!! just ActivSync and Internet Sharing.
Suggestion:
#1: will it be okay if you remove 'Microsoft My Phone'
#2: and what about removing 'Marketplace' too?? I don't think many people uses it. If they want they can install it, right??
more to come soon...

Some more changes

Your bug list
in 1., 2., 3. Its build related prob will change it.

2. Bro in this case many want to close on pressing x button and many dont want so i keep it default that is it will not close.
3. Phone option please specify.
4. Windows default not working coz the rom dont have titanium
@All: Whoever participating in this beta testing please feel free to explore your devices and report here, all will be fixed tonight.
Edit: Forgot to say my opinion on freelancers suggestion:
Marketplace and myphone many of here want so i have added it my the way it wont consume much space.
Another imp thing: Someone confirm if the SMS bug fixed and working properly?

Everything that will be fixed on final version, will be put to the second post iam doing that right now check out in few mins. If i miss something remind me here.

Successful things that is fixed in this rom is displayed on 3rd post.

Hi Bro,
1. Volume button started working after few restarts.
2. Agreed with Windows Default
3. Phone option generally has "Vibrate when call connect"
Just one funny thing....when the device is locked you can very well click on "Start" then nothing gets clicked....
Please fix the display problem when person calls its not displaying the name...
rest all is fine...

For showcase you have to first go to home screen then it opens whereas arksoft can be accessed from any screen, so my vote goes to arkswitch let see what others say.

Iwant to throw my archos 70 out of the window

Hello everyone
I have been a loyal archos user for a year now, first with the a5IT and now the 70 internet tablet. As form factor I love the Archos 70 internet tab but the software is killing me it is so slow, what can I do to make it fast again?

speed tweaks

What in particular is slow?
If scrolling home screens is slow, or icons are taking time to show up (or refresh) try a different launcher than the default. Popular ones lately have been Go Launcher, ADW.Launcher, and Zeam.
Are you using the most recent firmware update? (2.0.71 has sped the systems up quite a bit from the older versions)
http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates.html?country=us&lang=en&#firm
Are you using an SD card? (If so try adding a file named .nomedia to the card to reduce the gallery from spending time scanning).
Did you install Google Voice? (If not, you should refrain from it since, it is dragging down a lot of systems).
What speed (in settings) do you have your processor set to run. (The most responsive is the Overdrive setting).
If you want to know how to speed your system up you'll need to tell us what is slow about it.

The overall system is getting really unresponsive and what bugs me the most is when I try to install any app through .apk the device fails on me and freezes. Basically when I try to instal any app it freezez when I try to use an app it freezes most of the time
I am using the latest update with the middle setting for power but overdrive doesn't make a big difference. I am running adw launcher which helped and is really good compared to the stock launcher.
The device freezes a lot and thats not because of me having a lot of apps when I get home I will try reinstalling the update keeping the device on overdrive for a long time and will report back

i would do a reset. it really is not as bad as it sounds.
market will tie your purchases to your account, just power off, hold vol-down and power up. choose reset, and then reset device( i do & storage). make sure firmware is 2.0.71, and install gapps5. then just watch what you install, and uninstall things you don't use.

Yeah, it sounds like you need to do a full reinitialization and then reinstall the newest firmware.
My A70 was literally not usable after I tried to upgrade. It was freezing every minute. After a reinstall, everything works great.
And don't forget to set your CPU to overdrive. Really doesn't affect battery too much, and the speed is noticeable.

I turned off the animated live wallpaper. Made my 101 noticable faster.

Deinstall VoiceSearch
You should deinstall the updates of VoiceSearch ....

thanks guys I did a full reinitiolization (not sure bout spelling) and now it is working better, i chose not to install the market and just use applanet for what i want to download, working good now but we'll see how it ends up after a few days of use.
thanks guys you were really helpfull.

dont know if the contents of your memory were wiped with your full reinitialization but i have noticed that every time i install an app i get the little pop up saying that the device is updating its library. this would explain why it would appear to grind to a halt when you install anything

the contents of my memory card did get wiped and i've noticed the less things in the internal memory the better. this is because archos did not partition the internal memory for the users the should have left maybe 2gb for the system and apps and the rest for us to use like what is on the galaxy s, that is what mae the device not lag.

I had the same issue. I had a photo app syncing online and it downloaded 30,000 thumbnails. That with the screwy "update multimedia library" really brought the 70IT to a halt. It would "sync" for about 1 hour leaving about 75% battery left.
I reinitialized and installed gapps4archos v5 with only the market and gmail (no voice or maps) and it's flying now. I wish I could disable the multimedia library sync permanently.

- USB old app from 2.2 added (please ignore wifi orange icon in taskbar, thanks!)
- removed some malware + swype defy edition.
- not deodex'd (much faster load times)
- ZOOM removed (not supported by our model)
- OpenRecovery not included in nandroid, please install after restore, to keep functionality in place.
- MilestoneOverclock app not included, but module and oc-settings file supported.
- ext2sdcard automatically enabled if found on partition2 of sdcard.
- gameloft games require more memory this rom got like 35MB free when running, so you need to tweak apps if you want games to run.​
Install instructions:
Make sure sdcard is visible, when you get to step 6 of instructions, or it all fails, same with restore..
NOTE: only works on top of 2.1 sbf installs, due to large amound of /system storage..
A: users with stock 2.1 can proceed to step 1 in instructions.
B: users with stock SBF korean 2.2 rom , need to flash stock 2.1 and goto step 1
root it (SuperOneClick ) - included with zip

DEFINITELY testing this when I get home
Dex you're a genius

refresh, refresh.. downloading.... restoring
More info tomorrow, 10x Dexter !

haven't gotten a chance to flash yet, download is taking FOREVER, but after its done, if i wanna change back, do i just do a nandroid restore of one of your froyo roms? or do i have to flash back to 2.1 first?

OH THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
I was about to sell the XT720 because I wanted Blur. Now I'll have it!
I LOVE YOU!
I hope it comes in spanish language soon

first bugs to report (quite a few...)
I recieve multiples of sms messages, e.g., i would recieve the same message from the same person several times.
market does not like to have multiple downloads at the same time.
in the app drawer, the very very bottom of the screen is slightly cut off, no big deal, just saying.
in the Blur messaging widget, using the reply button on the widget will.not allow the message to send, message can still be typed, but will.not send.
vibrate function will randomly stop working, and requires a reboot.
media gallery button serves as voice command..? yeah.
market and browser will occasionally not work on wifi.
if there are more bugs i will be right on it
now the good
Blur works!!!
ram is not totally devoured, actually pretty good compared to previous froyo release. (although some system apps like the included task manager and bluetooth are constantly running, i do not have bluetooth on.)
very stable, usable build, i will be using it daily until the next release.
great stuff dex

Few bugs from me:
- Market download/install is very, very slow.
- I think that maybe there is some battery drain because from my last post (in the middle of the night) after I install Blur till now - 50% down. This is with 3g and few mails to check. TEMP+CPU shows 36C but when I wake up I think that the phone was s little hot in the back.
Except Blur I don`t have different software installed (comparing to 2.2).
During this post the phone don`t recognize the USB in PC... I`m not sure were is the problem (phone., soft or PC) so for the moment this is not reported.
- Maybe this is not a bug, but there is japan letters in some menus - phone (when I dial persons, recent call s and rrs news).
- It`s stupid but the phone unlock (slide) is very much harder than before...
- There is more free memory (This is not a bug!)

thanks to all for the quick reporting back.
- sms -
i think i know where the problem is, as it also happened on milestone :-( and i recall i got it fixed.
- jananese text -
not sure im able to fix, i dont get the lang, and im no translator..
- battery drain -
Blur is known for taking huge cpu and not being "sleepy", just looking at the log output happening during sleep is huge.. i did not expect Blur to be optimized at all.. and im not sure how it can be fixed except removed Blur, with a Deblur.
- slider -
yes, it seems it release your touchpoint much quicker than it should.. ill look at it, i think someone else wrote something like this on korean rom.
- usb .
i used only debugging, so i never actually confirmed usb mass storage.. will be checked later on..
- networking -
i noticed it too with Market, there is an issue with the Market im aware of, but might require a deodex'd of packages, which cost speed and memory/storage, so im not sure how much i do on this subject for now..

please do not put anything into this..
it could relate to a bug in h264 or aac encoding, so if LGCamera does not encode video or audio with aac, you know the reason..

Yes! MotoBlur Gonna try it asap @Dexter: Little hint: maybe a few screenshots of how it looks on the XT720?
And can I help with translating or is that not possible? 'Cause I've translated various programs, I love to do that and I have a lot of spare time, so I can translate it if possible.

LG camera sucks for me. I'm using a camera from the Android market now, but I can use it only at 3.2MP in the free version. But it is still really good
There are some problems with the Blur accounts (I can't setup facebook for the social widgets) And the phone doesn't read my music and some pictures in the SD card.
Everything else is just

-Facebook account issues
After creating and signing in with Facebook, account disappears and contacts are not synced in contacts and cannot add facebook account again.....

for people used to knowing motorola and their products, Blur might not need much presentation, it pretty much looks Blur to me.. and i admit knowing alot who goes for a Deblur edtion, but that i leave up to people to decide..

noob has general questions and MIUI

hi yall,
i bought the phone used, and its running 2.2.1 froyo, ever since i got the phone last night ive been here reading everything about it, since im new to android, its very confusing for me.
(1) i wasnt sure if it was rooted, but there was a superuser icon in the menu ,so i went root it again and did allow non market app from super1click. when it was doing allow non market app, the phone frozed , i had to just take off the battery for it to restart, then did the allow non market app again, it was fine the second time. after this i found that the phone is very slow for 20-30 sec when just turned on. perhaps it has nothing to do with rooting and allow non market app, the phone is just like that. anyways is this normal? would rooting 2 times make it slow after power on?
(2) im very interested in installing the MiUI or CM7 to my bravo, i have the factory usb driver installed, and the phone is rooted . what are the other steps to get it work?
i would really appreciate if you have any input,
thanks in advance.

Ok. Get you started then you will need to get what is called the LIFESAVER to me. The Stock .sbf file for just in case times. Next before anything else you need a program called RSD LITE. It's made by Motorola (correct if wrong). On your phone you'll need an app called SndInitDefy_1.4_2.apk. Put it on you mem card and install it on your phone (you did push the allow non market apps button in S1C right?). Then look around for the rom you want to use. Myself and several other people are working on a CM7 rom for the Bravo with a working STOCK camera. The easy fixes are using another 2 or 3 camera apps. After all said and done follow the instructions on sndInitDefy_1.4_2.apk or 2ndInitDefy_1.4_2.apk whatever the name is in the app drawer. After that put the rom you want on your sd card. Not in a folder or anything just the card. Reboot into 2nd recovery and wipe your data, cash and dalvik, then install the new rom. NOTE: Most issues occur because you didn't wipe. NOTE 2: You have to use the Vol. UP and DOWN on the side of the phone to select things and the power on the top to do it while in 2ndInit.

And if you would like to know I was writing this on 2 hours of sleep like 24 hours ago while drinking cold coffee and eating something I can't figure out what it is but reminds me of tacos and nachos. Back of fridge find.
Forgot about your first question, sorry, I haven't really noticed any speed changes before or after root to me. Could be another app you have that runs at boot? If you have any troubles just PM me and I'll get to ya. My major project went to the back burner for the moment. I do have an app for you if you want to try to get a little more speed out of it. Like I said just PM me.

what are the apps that increases speed? is there any way i can delete the junk apps came with the phone? there are 50 of them more than 40 is useless. lol

thanks a lot for taking your time responding my post, i do really appreciate it.
after i run launcher pro, the phone have a speed increase, faster then before. everything is normal now.
i noticed that there are a lot of versions of RST lite, i gusse i should have the latest one. right?
i kinda need the camera for school projects, plus there are still things i need to learn about so i will be doing later, i think pretty soon you guys would know how to make the stock camera work, lol

I use RSD Lite 5.0. Google it and it's easy to find. Camera issue has work around and to rid yourself of the bloatware you need to be rooted (which you are) and look on the market for an app called SuperManager. It may have alot more than what you need but it's free. When you install it open and go to it's settings and mark the box for root. Then you can use it to uninstall your bloatware. I would keep google maps and the navigation app though. I've never had a use for any of the news, weather or news & weather stuff. Just slows your phone and uses your data. If you want a true FM Radio for your phone see below. It's a little better then the AT&T Radio. DO NOT UNINSTALL ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE AN APP! You will see things that seem like doubles of stuff. FM Radio is one of these. One is AT&T's app the other is like the driver for ANY FM Radio app to work. Just let me know if you get stuck. Also here is a great overclock app. Don't go over 1 ghz for too long though. Stock is 800Mhz. It's not made by myself.

when i tried to scan the barcode and download overclock and FM files, it keeps giving me a message of
Download unsuccessful
Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone
i downloaded the files to my computer, everytime i try to put them in the phone by usb cable it shows cant copy, i must did something wrong.
oh, BTW the supermanager is awesome

The old school ways still work for things like this. Take out your memory card and just copy files to it with a card reader. You might have filled up the card already? I can't put anything else on my wifes card but she just has a 2gig. She has alot of music and the videos are taking up alot of room. She's still stock but she does use overclock and undervolt to get a little more speed and save the battery. The QR codes I don't think they work for everyone. Search the market for an app named "Sideload Enabler for Bravo". It's free and so you can make sure you can sideload apps. Gives you the checkbox under settings too! + in my book. Can't remember if it requires root or not..... I'll post the link in a min.
