Hello, I would like to know is there some tips and tricks for wildfire. Like roms or apps that would increase performance or quality of picture, Something like that. Every single tip is welcome. Id like to have "all out" for my wildfire, you know
Thanks already!
I just installed a custom theme from on this forum, making my icons and menus etc look way nicer. Don't use the live wallpapers but just a picture, it will make the phone a lot more fluent.
Overclock the phone and let it underclock when it is in standby (supported by ROMs like CM7) to increase performance and battery life (possibly).
Use as little widgets as possible to increase battery life, ...
Pretty standard, but that already helps a lot
Like the above poster said; overclocking the Wildfire helps a lot and gets rid of most speed issues.

It already has OC kernel included by default. Just go to Settings > Cyanogenmod Settings > Performance Settings > CPU Settings and set the speed there.

Advance task kiler is the best...which will allow you to close those usless app that are running in the background
remember to ignore the apps that are usually use by you,when using task killer
Kill all running apps just will slower your phone
Change the VM head size to highiest when you are gaming

hey all
here few tips i can share however most of the users will already know them i think
i use the build [build][1.12.2010][beta] desire hd2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=735
with [Kernel:Hastarin r8.5.3]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787588
cos this build gives the IOps more then twice better then normal FS
some ppls will say its nothing just tricking the quadrant app
but i can say its help app installation, reduce the boot time
scrolling is smooth even with dir lots of files
about the Kernel the CPU score is around 35 in linpack and in MDJ around 29 or less really duno why
u need just copy over [overwrite ] the new kernel to desire_hd2 dir
and now few tips that may help the build run and boot load fast
i use Titanium Backup to remove stuff i dont use like stocks
the less apps will have the less IOps for the sdcard android will be more respondent
and system panel lite to easily End all the tasks that run to get around 250-280mb ram free i just exclude the useable tasks and kill them all
i cant be sure if the killing apps is helping but its fast and easy to use
thats it, now u should enjoy it
btw if u have something to share too will happy to ...
I already know most of this but it's a very nice of you : ) hope it will help someone!

You should never kill tasks in Froyo... When you kill a task, it restarts, puts more stress on the cpu and kills battery...

I noticed this juts few days ago and did this on all my family's Nexus S.
Install Chainfire3d
from the market and then open the app and tap to install the driver. I used the normal method not the advanced. Don't set any other settings after your phone reboots. You can if you want to but a lot of aps won't work with those settings.
What this app does is it installs an intermediate open GL driver between the apps and phone GPU driver to give you better performance.
Just figured I'll share it with everyone. It really made a difference for me on ICS speed. The way I see it it should be baked it to all ICS ROMs.
isnt this just used for games?
that's why its called chainfire3D
the whole point is to trick proprietary games "apps" into thinking you have GPU that you don't
so you are able to play tegra adreno..ect games on other devices
dont think its works on anything other than games so i don't se how its helping make overall ICS faster.
ICS is already using our sgx540 just fine
Well, it does and it makes a difference. Try it and see for your self. Chainfire3d is not just for games.
Thank you for pointing out this tweak. I too was under the impression that chainfire was just for games.
Both tapatalk and the browser feel much smoother.
Thanks

Chainfire dev recommends disabling all driver settings unless being used by a specific applications, per his xda thread:
" I strongly advise that when you are NOT using Chainfire3D for something specific, you disable all the options. This is better for system performance."
Anyone know why? Is he talking about the non-default options?
I don't know exactly, but it seems like it is just to do with the specific settings (inside the default settings section). Using the driver is fine, but any of the options being ticked has the ability to make some applications go awry depending on the device. Those options, i assume, are only meant to be used when you want to use a specific app that requires or benefits from them.
Also, i've noticed great improvements in ES File Explorer scrolling. It would lag a fair bit scrolling through long folders, but now it's nice and smooth.

I'm installing this now... Have you guys noticed any decline in battery life?
Hopefully not :3
Does anyone know if this has the same downside as forcing gpu acceleration in the developer setting? I remember reading the Googler's post on G+ on how it increased the memory overhead by 8mb per app, reducing the memory available for other apps and processes.
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
It doesn't force GPU rendering. Alot of the Android UI is already using GPU rendering, using this intermediate driver just somehow makes it more fluid.
Trying it now, though I don't notice much improvements in scrolling.
I use force GPU setting on my phone. With the live OC in Matr1x at 111% (max my phone can handle) it does make a bit of difference in UI. But this Chainfire3D driver makes the most difference for me.
Also, in case you are on a ROM which doesn't let you change min memory settings, I'm using MinFreeManager which is a small app that just does that. The default settings which it comes built in are for GB but you can just change them manually. I don't touch the top 3 and just tweak the bottom 3. I'm currently on:
14,19,24,32,64,128
Does it effect battery drain?
Will this eat more battery juice?
Highly doubt it, and so far havn't noticed anything particularly different on my end. You can uninstall it anyway if it does cause trouble (though might be wise to perform a nandroid backup while initially installing).
Thx man, now trying it!!

hey guyz.i,ve been using Arconium ICS and i noticed Phone app and setting open terribly slow.so here is what i did to get them smoother.
just go to setting ,developer options and choose at most 2 processes from background procces limit bar.don,t choose don,t keep activities cause it will kill launcher every time.try and see for your selves.hope this helps
anybody else tried this?
use my touchscreen, responsiveness and battery tweaks from the android development subforum for xperia arc. i have been read the last post about the governor and the rampling too. i've been ggetting over 18 hours on an average already. (those tweaks were for the ics beta, i bet i can tweak it more).
I am having problems with some games like Backstab and real racing 2..they crash when they load..I think it's a matter of a driver issue and not related to RAM availability..

games use a lot of ram. getting out of ram can cause FCs. (try reducing your vm heap to 20 and see what it does to the other apps )
Thanks for sharing bro, it just help to improve responsiveness a little bit. It's really annoying that when u tap the dialer and few seconds later it appear...lol
are u kerenl is doom v4?
orgain kerenl is slow
Guys, just supercharge your phone. Details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533044
It's working great for me on stock ICS and just wanted to share.
After you supercharge the dialer & sms apps only lag the "first" time you open them after a reboot. After that they open pretty much instantaneously (unless you run a massive app which uses all the phones memory) in which case it will lag the first time after closing the massive app.
You can bullet proof apps of your choice including dialer, sms, launcher etc.
For me the overall smoothness of ICS is noticable.

This is definitely the way to go! Don't go crazy and bulletproof everything or else you'll end up with the same problem but definitely do the basics and you'll notice a difference for sure, without having to drop down to 2 background processes.

Hey guys! Been playing around with ICS ROM's lately on my HD2. Tried a lot of different performance options like Zram, Purging of assets Over-clocking and Under-clocking and etc. But for me no matter what I change, the settings does not improve nor performance nor battery life.
So tell me guys, do you change your settings from stock, does it help you improve performance/battery life, and if so write the best combination working for YOU!
Will be waiting your options guys on what setting works well for you (the whole layout please, performance stuff you toggle on/off, CPU Min/Max and governor), maybe your ideas will help someone new to ICS to improve even more on the awesomeness which is ICS on HD2
BTW: Wanted to flash a WP7.5 ROM cuz these little lags started to annoy me, but then discovered an AWESOME ROM by Zorua http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783913 And was amazed by the speed of this build. Nice job dude made me reconsider going back to WP7.5 And a special thx for securect for his hard work with the kernel and KGSL support.

Use CPU tuner. You are allowed to set options like " normal mode or mode while display is off" etc. it helps to boost the battery life incredible.

Mybe this is crazy but I'm actually looking for performance. My phone is near the charger all day but maybe this is crazy since i know HD2 is an old device but the little lag annoy me))
Hello guys,
Our X8/W8 is a slow speed device and without proper memory management there would be many lags and unresponsiveness in our device.So to overcome these problems I have some tips and thought that I will share it with all you guys.
These are those tips that I know of and those that I believe will actually speed up your phone and some tips here will also allow you to conserve some battery life too.So here we go:
Dont use too many apps.Delete all unused apps.
Dont use more than 2 launchers in the same device.It will cause a lot of RAM loss.
When selecting your default launcher try to select a launcher that is small in size so that it will ony take up a small amount of RAM.
To reduce HomeScreen Redrawing check the "Keep Home In Memory" app found in almost all Custom ROMs.This will reduce the time taken for your HomeScreen to fully load up after you exit an app.
Dont Undervolt the CPU if you find that your Phone is becoming too slow.
When selecting a rom make sure that your ROM is lightweight(small in size).The Custom ROM runs in the RAM of our device and when the Custom Rom is small in size then it will take up only a small amount of RAM and you will have more free RAM.
Odexed ROMs should technically speed up your Phone but the difference will be only minor.
If your manufacturing date is 11W29 or below then it would be good to unlock the Bootloader and flash a Custom Kernel.If the Custom Kernel is a good one then we can notice a change in our Phone's speed.
Remove all bloatware from the Custom Rom.
Reduce the use of Live Wallpapers.
Turn off 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, Data Services etc when they are not in use.This speeds up your Rom and also conserves your Battery.
Overclocking should be done ONLY when needed so bad.What it does is that it supplies more power than needed to you CPU and tries to increase its clock speed.This may speed up you phone but it also OVERHEATS the CPU and as a long term effect it may destroy your CPU.So you will have to buy a new phone!
Its better to have a darker theme than a lighter one.Darker themes conserves the Battery and also speed up your device a bit.
Dont use a Third Party Task Killer app. Android will manage it memory by itself.
After Rebooting or Turning on the device wait for a 1-2 minutes even after the screen is fully loaded.This allows the ROM to settle and you can use it more efficiently afterwards.
Use of V6 Supercharger by Zepplinrox,The Adrenaline Engine etc has to be considered over Overclocking as overclocking will ultimately damage the CPU.
This list of tips will be constantly updating.If you have any tips that you use to speed up your phone please post it here and I will add it to this list.
Click THANKS if this helped!!
Enjoy!!!!!!!!
Thanks!!!!

This is bad. Android will kill other more important app. One time it killed my systemUI . So I prefer to wait but I haven't seen redrawing launcher since I'm using custom kernel and good rom

Have somebody seen bricked x8 by overclock? I don't think so. I'm using my phone with maximum oc my phone can run. 245/787mhz for about year (since I have bought it) and it is still working great without any issues.
Sorry for my English.

In all my life I have never heard this before.I dont think Android will kill the SystemUI. It is like killing itself, and that is NOTlikely to happen.The "Lock Home In Memory" doesnt make your launcher indestructible! It just make it a little more difficult to kill but yet "kill-able".It will kill the launcher only when a lot of other unwanted apps have been killed.That option just gives the launcher a little more priority.

When you overclock have you ever touched the phone's back???
Well you can see that its hotter than usual. This means that more amount of power goes into the CPU.
For example, You take the case of a LED.When you give it the right amount of power it lights up very well,but what happens when you give it a lot more power than needed??It will overheat and eventually get destroyed.Thats the same thing that will happen here.Overclocking may not explode your CPU but if you have overclocked for a long time and then switch to normal then you can see that the CPU is now less efficient than it was before overclocking.

last mini cm10 nightly + nAa .32 v4 its pretty fast but when I add Seeder app it seems to be a lot of faster.
App is reduced some lags so maybe it's only illusion
By doing implementing these tips you can get a better speed without much effort.But surely these tips wont make your phone an Xperia Z but you can surely notice some effects.
Swapper 2
Does using swapper 2 or a similar application help ?
I personally wont recommend Swaping. It will reduce our SDcard life. And we need to use a very high quality SD card which is very costly and and you will have a reduced life span of SD card too. But if you can afford buying a High Quality Class SD card once in a while then its OK.
