first what i do when i flash a new rom.
1. i install system app remover,and uninstall all apps i dont use.such as radio,DSPmanager,voice dialer,voice search,email apk.
2.for speed improovement:if you know and want to overclock your phone its ok.but dont expect your battery to last two days.it will last one day,maybie lower.it depends on wich frequency you set.i think 710Mhz is the best frequency.juwe's ram script is also good,but use v6 supercharger.it blasts.i dont use overclock,but still i get 1200+ quadrant points.
3.battery save:use program fast reboot from market.it frees ram,and kills background running apps.undervolt-lowering cpu frequency.your phones battery usage will be much lower,but expect some lag and your phone will be slower.but overall its not worth it.
battery calibration.you can do it manualy,but i use a program from market.its all explained there.use juice defender,it helps a little.
4.for those who dont know how to use supercharger script!
1,download this attachment from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276 (third attachment,its called like this txt V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update8.sh.txt
2. put it on your sd card,and rename it to v6.sh
3.run terminal emulator,type su,then enter,and you will be prompted for superuser permission.click allow.
4.type in this command: sh sdcard/v6.sh
5.then its easy later,choose an option you want.
If you brick your device with it,its not my problem.if you dont feel safe,dont use it.i never encountered any problems.
OVERCLOCKING!
ok it seems like every starter vonders how its done.so lets start.
1.download the attachment from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020313&highlight=overclock+module the attacment is called x8oc-v004.zip
2.copy the x8oc.ko from your sd card to system/lib/modules using root explorer.
3.now go to system/etc folder,and find file that is called hw_config.sh,long touch on it,then choose an option "open in text editor".
4.now when you opened it,put in this line in top- insmod / system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko # x8 overclocking
5.save changes,and go to setcpu app and choose how much you want to overclock it.for me the best frequency is from 710Mhz to 787Mhz.but you can go higher.
Tell me if i forgot something,and most importantly,dont TROLL!I am only here to help.
so here it is in short.i hope i helped
Thanx alot mate for your effort, here's what I do :
1. Advanced Task Killer
2. Memory Manager
3. Battery Booster
That's it... and I've found 40% boost in battery timing...
Use app called fast reboot.because task killers spend more battery.

how to use it on x8??
1. post updated,check it out.
ok , I unistalled all those three apps and trying fast reboot , will check if it improves battery or not, but it's causing 1 problem though , whenever I hit fast reboot I got a notification on status bar "Data traffic Disabled" and 1 Missed called...
while I've already cleared those two notifications by using that clear button on status bar...
I did disable data traffic intentionally !! why is that ?
p.s by celebrating battery you mean wipe battery status after a month ???
I never had that issue with fast reboot.and battery calibration is somethong like this: charge the battery to 100%,then use it untill the phone shuts down,and charge it to 100% again.its the manual way.but download the program from market called battery calibration,its easier.
I tried the Supercharger script a week ago on my FroyoBread and choosing option 4 (balanced) would just make launcherpro loop-crash when i booted the phone and then after a while just reboot itself and repeat.. It totally broke everything... How come?
Some options dont work good with x8.try using agressive 1 or agressive two.try to experiment with various options.it cant harm you.for me,the best is agressive 1,or megaram.

Yes, it does harm me because when it ****s i cant use xrecovery or anything... I have to reroot and everything all over again.
Sorry man,i didnt know.it never happened to me,and i tried all options.
sorry bro,but i never had that problem.
and now i have exactly the same problem..i cant boot neither to ROM or xRecovery or CWM..what can i do now??
Flash it again with seus.
i actually did the thing, just some hours ago no issues, i chose multitasking.
seems to be pretty good!
And how exactly will i update with SEUS?..as i said earlier i cannot boot to rom..i had floyo 2.2.5 v1.0..and i can't load to xrecovery..and the phone must be connected first to pc companion to recognize the phone and fw version..to do that, the phone must be powered on and functual..hmm..is there any way to bypass that and go straight to flash an x8? i thought about using another x8 but i cannot find any

Assuming your phone is off, hold the back button and connect it to the PC via USB. The green LED should light up. PC should recognize it as flash mode or some such thing. When you run SEUS and it says connect your phone to the PC just do this and proceed with it. Then re root, xrecovery bla bla youre good to go
As for supercharger, for minfrees to stick you have to run the script everytime you reboot and the best setting for daily use is Balanced 3 (option 6) Ive pretty much tested all of them.
@xperiauser132 there is a instalation problem on supercharger
correct installation for supercharger:
1.use script manager Download:Here
2.Press menu --> more --> Advanced options --> config tick Browse as root
3.Run v6.sh from sdcard dont forget to check run as root
4.choose an option you want
5.select reboot (number 16 on supercharger option)
6.re-run the script (v6.sh)
7.again choose an option you want
8.Type exit (17)
9.go to /Data find 99supercharger.sh --> open as script Tick run as root and run at boot Save (for stock only (2.1) )
10. reboot
Well, I've tried this supercharger thing, and for me, at least, there was no improvement, if anything, the phone was slightly worse - with quadrant giving me an average of 34 points less compared to how my phone normally runs - using GingerDX v010 at 710Mhz on Smartass.
Maybe i'm doing it wrong?
Backed up phone now to pre-supercharger status.

Hi everybody...
I know I'm not a dev, but I like to explore my android phone. So you are developing, and right after i'll be trying to do it... on my own
I believe I followed all the steps refered in x8 overclock module thread in devs section, but since I can't ask this there, i'll ask it here.
1st - Download and unzip x8oc.zip (the right version), then copy x8oc.ko to system/lib/modules (I'm sure the file is there, system is mounted rw).
2nd - Edit hw_config.sh on pc with notepad++ (my edited file is attached) and "glue it" back to system/etc after editing.
3rd - Reboot... and then what?! It reboots, but when I go to set cpu, I have same frequencies as before (122-600mhz). So, my x8 is not overclocked right?!
Beside this steps do I need to do something else?! In set cpu, do I select any device configuration or just auto detect frequencies?!
Do I need to set custom frequencies in any other files?!
I've just tried lot's of changes and nothing worked.
Please help me on this...
I'm using floyo 0.15 on my x8, rooted and with xrecovery on it...
Thank you all
the attachment is correct..and don't change the set cpu. i use the same roms like yours
Do you think that having baseband version 006 instead of the 015 could be the cause for this problem? I never updated it...
Because, I've done it again without touching set cpu and still no overclock... If you say it's correct, then I really don't know what else could it be...
Thank anyway for the reply
I think it is very influential on baseband cuz for the rom said that use xx15,...if yours non xx15 so try to change it ...what you've applied on the hw_config is same on mine so it's quitely correct.
Hi mate
So, I'll tell you what i've done.
Went to SE's site and repaired to the original 2.1 so restarted the phone, updated to baseband 015, then root, then xrecovery... and then, installed miniCM. As you know, miniCM has an update.zip to easily overclock it to 710MHz.
I tried it and it worked fine. BUT! I prefer Floyo 0.15 (the best till the moment for me) and so I tried to do something, when I restored back to Floyo.
Adding the code to the original hw_config.sh in floyo's file didn't work again. So I thougt... Let's trie to put MiniCM's hw_config (the file that comes in the update.zip) to floyo's system. And... It's working FINE!!! I'm currently running at 749(x27)Mhz and it doesn't go off... it's stable. Also handles 767(x28)Mhz but it's not so stable. Now I'm really satisfied with my overclocked x8.
But there is one reason that made me think of where was the mistake.
When I opened floyo's original hw_config and added the code, in notepad++ it was apparently correct and the visual configuration of the file was equal to miniCM's hw_config file (already with the code). But, when I opened the both in wordpad, the file I edited had the same format as in notepad++ and the file from MiniCM had all together and a different layout. So I thought that it was possible that android wasn't reading the file well, since the configuration of the code was different. And it worked so smoothly
So my question is, does notepad++ write in the language needed for this to work?! or is there anything needed to change in order to make it legible to android system?
Thanks again
Sorry for all this noob questions, but since you use the same rom as mine, it's a good chance to ask what I don't know. lol
Our rom comes out with app2sd pre installed right?
So it was suposed that I could move some programs to sd.
But, when I go to settings/apps manager There's the option to move apps to sd, but they all say "fail moving the app".
What do I have to do to make it work well?! Heard that the sd had to be partitioned. What program did you use to do that?!
That's the only thing left to make x8 perfect and full of memory lol
Thanks
I managed to OC it manually to 710 MHz in miniCM6, BUT no performance increase was detected. Quadrant score was consistently lower (~750) compared to no overclock (~850),
Any ideas?
I OCed it to 719MHZ with miniCM and i really felt an improvement. Switching menus and sliding on the home-screen (GO launcher) is really smoother.
Quadrant-Standard-Score:
@600MHz (ON DEMAND): ~520
@719MHz (PERFORMANCE): ~920

it drains a bit faster with the PERFORMANCE-govenor, but my phone is loaded every night anyway.
It is even less important to me, because when it reacts faster, i don't need to have it turned on as long as when it is laggy. And the display really needs most of the battery-power, so i may even save battery, when i can turn it off earlier.
Return to 600mhz
I can not use the overclock because when I reboot the phone it is on 691Mhz soon after he returns to 600mhz. I know that the CPU clock is dynamic, but he never returns to 691mhz. What did I do wrong? I used the XDA tutorial for overclocking.
Don't work yet
I just try full wipe and did not work. I think it's some parameter or file permission...
Since i had a lot of PM of people who want explanation to install this ROM
I make this little thread for you.
Notice that i don t make this rom i only test it and make the nandroid image
to know more about that you can read the Mioze7Ae thread here
And for those asking for the performance I try almost all the rom and this is for me the fastest and (with the sileshn theme include) it s also the most beautiful...
I had between 70 to 80 Mo RAM available without swap. With swap i reach the 95 100Mo!!! (I attach my boot.img files too but it s the first fjfalcons').
Here you can find a tutorial to fastboot boot.img to enable swap.
And it works in multilangage (i don t know which but in english spanish and french without a problem)
To enable app on sd and swap you must have your sd part in this way: a fat32 part for the media / a ext3 part / and a swap part
You can find a video guide here on his channel(you will have to search a little but i remember its called 8min Linux...) made by reverendkjr
I make another image and i test it 3times (from sbf to the end...) so all works !!!!!!
For the beginners i will come back to the sbf.
1. SBF
So I m using the Singapore SBF I think you don t need it to get it work but it s better for those who have problem to change it too (it seems to work in every country)
So you can find the singapore sbf here
And you install it wiht RSDlite (do a google search): first put your phone in bootloader mode (when the phone is off you hold the camera and the volume up button while powering up) then you select your sbf and flash it.
2. Recovery
Now you have a fresh new system
You have to install the recovery
First of all you will have to install a file explorer form the market (you can use the one you want it will be deleted when flashing...)
Now you have to move the two apk(universal and root and openrecovery) i attach to this post in your sd
you can now install with your file explorer the apks.
Start with universal and root. Intall it and root your device.
Install the open recovery now. (Install it and install recovery system)
Now you must install Androidiani OpenRecovery I think it will work with out but it s easy and the recovery work better with it... So you just have to extract this zip to your sd (overwriting the similar files)
Now you have a working recovery. To launch it just go to open recovery and click on recovery boot (don t forget to copy the nandroid image folder in the sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery before you go to the recovery)
3. Restoring the nandroid image
Now you have a working AOR (androidiani openrecovery) and you have extract the attach nandroid image to sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery folder
Don t forget that nandroid need a folder name with out any space and in this folder you can only have .img or .md5 files.
So in Open recovery you go to nandroid / restore /
And if you don t change the folder name you must have CyanogenTI0808allupdates in the list
You select it and launch an restore all operation.
After that you come back to the first menu and wipe dalvik cache/ cache partition and wipe data / factory reset
Now you can reboot system. And it s done. Don t forget that the first boot is very long (about 5 or 6minutes)
CyanogenTI0808allupdates (the nandroid image)
(made and posted the 08/08/2011)
With all the new update from the official post (until the 08/08)
And the Twisted Inception theme from sileshn (with the update for the white text and the new battery icon)
You have to change the hour color (in settings / Cyanogen Mod / user interface / status bar) (from black to white)
Known issues:
- Fm Radio not working
- Media Gallery button not working
- Recovery boot (from the restart menu) don t work (you have to reboot holding the volume up button)
- Led notifications from the Cyanogen mod menu don t work but Led Me Know works
- Some users have issues with installing payed apps... I never have so....
Just a reminder to new readers: do not flash the fjfalcon boot.img. You have to use fastboot boot boot.img over USB every time.

Without my apps i have 95 100Mo of free ram (with out the app2ext I have so nearly 100 apps and it take some ram...)
But with all my apps and with the swap enable I can get between 70 to 80Mo
I don t use advtaskkiller anymore i think it use more ram that it can free
I use autokiller memory optimizer (it change the settup of the android task killer so no useless use of ram) and to kill my apps i use the Go task manager (a widget from the golauncher app)
wat u set at the autokiller memory optimizer?

b4 reboot the cm6 room was pretty stable... y after i reboot thn it started to freeze?
my 1st fastboot was pretty stable.. can run asphalt6... but the next time ll freeze... bcuz i install chainfire3d have to reboot and i have to fastboot again
even with fast boot i m only getting around 50mb of ram
Here is my Autokiller settings (user set, not pre-set and no fastboot). The work for me after many days/weeks of trial, error and monitoring.

I don't do a lot of gaming but I do listen to quite a bit of online media.
I average around 65-75mb all the time and at the very least 55mb when running Tune-in or Jango radios or Poweramp (memory hog btw but really good media player).
Side note: keep you widgets to a minimum. They eat RAM.
i just encounter some prob when swaped... for the 1st time i swaped it work fine and smooth all the way and no freezing but later on i reboot and try to swaped again my xt started to freeze when run certain apps...

i don't know about that, I went without widgets for the longest time cause everybody always told me how they eat ram and battery. Now for the past month or so I have had 1-2 widgets on each of my home pages and I really don't see much change. I am keeping the same amount of ram available and battery seems to drain the same. Not much difference, but I could be wrong I would have to go back to no widgets for a day or 2 and monitor my ram to be positive. I do know it isn't nearly as bad as what people say that kept me from using them to begin with.

Think of it this way. Say you have a 4x2 or 4x4 widget that is oh say MSNBC or Reuters newsfeed or your Facebook/G+ feed. These not only tax you home screen memory but they are always "running" too. If you have something like Widgetlocker where you can customize your lock screen and put apps or link on it directly, I have found that it munches free RAM really bad (14-17mb). So much so that I don't use it anymore (paid app too).
All a widget is is really just a custom icon that either monitors a running app/service, in which case it itself is running. Or it is running on its own, like a clock or feed or some kind.
Something like mClock or Battstat isn't too harsh, but 3rd party Keyboards can be quite draining too (I use Better kb and it is around 11mb but I like it and have had it since day one).
Good way to check is to go to Settings->Apps->Running Services and each will have the MB on the far right. Anything in double digits is hungry for your RAM.
I know you use that Go widget. Check out how much RAM it is using by going into settings and see if it is worth having it on there. Might be. You seem to be getting good RAM so is it aint broken don't fix it.
Hi All,
I'm new here but have been reading the threads since I got a Nook Color last month.
I'm booting from a 16GB microSD card: [CM7.2-RC0] MiRaGe - KANG build of CyanogenMod ("encore_CM72-MiRaGe-12122011") and also installed "gapps-gb-20110828-signed"
I ran the Battery Calibration tool just yesterday when it was plugged in and at 100%
I installed the Nook Color USB Mass Storage utility so that I could access the SD card from my computer
I also followed the thread's advice on installing V6 Supercharger (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344873):
Nook Color with its large kernel with many features consumes the RAM rapidly and low memory becomes an issue where V6 Supercharger becomes useful.
Here is how I install, it takes only one minute.
- Download update 8 to sdcard root directory.
- Start Terminal Emulator and do the followings
- su
- cd /sdcard
- sh V6*
- choose option 0 (fastest scroll)
- choose 9
- choose option 16 to reboot
I have a couple questions that I can't ask in the dev threads since I just registered here.
How do you check if V6 Supercharger is working? I didn't install BusyBox or Script Manager like the original V6 Supercharger thread suggested...so is there a way to do this through the Terminal Emulator?
What do you recommend overclocking your CPU settings in CyanogenMod settings to? I have mine currently set to Conservative, Min: 300 MHz, Max: 1100 MHz, and Set on boot. Would 1200 MHz be pushing it too much?
I've read some questions and threads on here regarding the Wi-Fi turning off when it goes to sleep. When you press the side power button to turn off the screen, is that also putting the device to sleep? Is there a solution to the problem of the Wi-Fi turning off on its own when the screen is off?
Thanks in advance to any advice or answers! And of course, if you have any suggestions on other things I should be installing/uninstalling I'd greatly appreciate it!

1. Open your app drawer, flick the screen, if it scrolls instead of stuttering then V6 is working.
2. OC as much or as little as you want. 1200 is safe but some people say that the increased battery drain isn't worth the slight increase in speed. You have to decide for yourself.
3. Yes, that is putting the device to sleep, yes, that will turn off your wifi. Most people prefer sleep to just screen off because it saves your battery. The old CM7.0.3 and earlier didn't have sleep mode and you lost 1-3% of battery per hour of standby. If you're ok with that then:
wireless & network settings > wi-fi settings > menu > advanced > wi-fi sleep policy>never
Thanks a bunch! I was wondering why there wasn't an "Advanced" option when I went to Wi-Fi settings...didn't even think to press the menu button! I chose to set the sleep policy to "Never when plugged in" and we'll see if that works for me. Is the default "When screen turns off"?
yup, it's been the default on every android device i've used. It allows you to put your device to sleep and then turn it back on when you need it without having to wait for android to boot. I can tell when an app kept my nook from sleeping because my battery is dead.

I don't think you (we) need this step since I believe the feature has been integrated into the latest CM7 builds, assuming MiRaGe the same.

Without even installing V6 Supercharger, I don't believe that I ever experience the stuttering. If that's the case, how do I know the V6 script is working/running/better performance?

You can tell it's installed Ok by running it again and using option 1 to show the status.
Not so easy to tell its immediate benefit as its real job is trying to ensure that the memory is kept free, so you have to compare operation over time as more apps get used / loaded.
You know, I'm not sure if I ever experienced the stuttering either. I'll have to check later today.
If I just used the Terminal Emulator, would I essentially do these steps?
- su
- cd /sdcard
- sh V6*
- choose option 0 (fastest scroll)
- choose 1 (to show status)
- choose option 16 to reboot
Also, just want to confirm that you need to keep the V6 file in the sdcard root directory right? I'm assuming if you ever delete or move the V6 file, V6 Supercharger would stop working?
By definition, "root directory" of the bootable CM7 uSD card is the one that has 117MB where ROM/GApp zip files used to be. If that, I don't believe that we (or NC) can access that partition. If it does, I want to know too.
With CM7 runs off eMMC, root directory of "normal" uSD card is ......... ehh, not in any sub-folder.
Can someone who actually do run V6 script chip in for some info?
Big thanks
Oh I'm sorry, when I wrote "sdcard root directory", I mean the root directory of what you can access when you plug it in via USB and not the partition where you're booting CM7 from. It's essentially where I save all my folders of wallpapers/music/videos/etc.

Oh, ok.
Did you run the script yet? How was it?
No offense to the person that suggested checking V6 by flicking the app drawer, but there are a couple more reliable options.
I am no expert, by any means, but from looking over the program, it looks like all it really does is prioritize your apps by whether they are foreground or back, a launcher or hidden and so on, then allocate memory to the apps following that priority. I think any response check would wholly depend on how many apps you have running (or being killed by the V6 task killer)
Either way, even if it turns out that I wholly misunderstood the program, I can tell you how to see if it is installed and running for sure.
This will work if you have already installed the V6 or not. the following are directions for terminals, if you are running the dev's Scripter app, I would imagine it is similar, if not automatic.
Open a terminal.
su
cd sdcard/
sh V6*
the menu then scrolls. option 0 is often recommended here, but that is just a value for the scrolling speed of theV6 script itself. you can increase this number if you errant to spend a little time looking over what you're running.
f you think you have already ran the V6 look below the 17 options to current minfrees. If you want option 9 (Mirage Kang's recommendation) the current minfrees should read 6, 12, 75,100,125,150 mb. if it does, then you are supercharged. if not, go ahead and select option 9.
Now before you reboot, I would recommend that you run option 15 if you are not using Scripter. that will run V6 through the terminal emulator. That way, should you ever want to check your values or mess with the options, you can open terminal, su, then bash V6, and it will run.
Even if you don't think you will ever want to readjust the supercharger again, it had the added benefit of yelling you your "installation was INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL" which is bound to make you feel supercharged.
Run option 16 to reboot and now you can feel secure, without relying on a subjective flick of the app drawer.
Thanks everyone! I'm going to try uninstalling the USB Mass Storage app I downloaded then, if I don't actually need it with the CM7.2 version.
I did run Terminal Emulator to see what the minfrees were and it was the same as option 9. I didn't even think of running option 15, but I've done so now. After I rebooted, I opened up the Terminal Emulator again and typed "su" and then "bash V6" and it says "bash: V6: No such file or directory". Am I doing something incredibly stupid or wrong?
Also, do I have to leave the V6 txt file on the sdcard or can you delete it after you've run it?
I would bet it was a problem with case. bash v6 and bash V6 are two different things. Capital V should fix the issue.
Save the txt file, it is the actual script that is being ran. Without it, nothing happens.
I used bash V6 (and tried bash v6 just to see if anything would happen) and I got the same message. I thought maybe I just didn't do it right first time around, so I went back in, checked the minfrees and entered option 15 and then 16 to reboot, but when it did, it booted to the stock Nook Color OS. I just shut down and turned it back on and it went into Cyanogenmod with no problem...but is that strange that it didn't boot into CM? And once I got into CM again, I checked the overclock settings and it was back down to 800 GHz (even though I set it on boot at 1200 GHz).

By definition, "root directory" of the bootable CM7 uSD card is the one that has 117MB where ROM/GApp zip files used to be. If that, I don't believe that we (or NC) can access that partition. If it does, I want to know too.
With CM7 runs off eMMC, root directory of "normal" uSD card is ......... ehh, not in any sub-folder.
Can someone who actually do run V6 script chip in for some info?
Big thanks

That's a partition, not a directory. Every partition has a separate root directory.
With emmc, it's simpler because there's only one partition on the sd card so there's only one root directory. You can copy it over using usb or a sd card reader and it'll end up in the same place.
If you are running off the uSD, transferring files via USB places them on the "SDcard" partition on the uSD. That way, CF3D can find the files.
**I have a ton of apps, which may be the cause of my app drawer stuttering on flick (where you try to swipe to the bottom of your app list in one flick).
Thanks for all the useful replies! I uninstalled Nook Color USB Mass Storage app, and it seems to be working fine!
I saw that there is a new build for [CM7.2-RC0] MiRaGe - KANG and was wondering if you guys could kind of walk me through doing my first update. I downloaded both of these files listed in his first post:
- ROM - 01132012 build: MD5sum: 41676325569e773340378ba886dd6bf6
- transparency theme with circular battery indicator for 01132012 build. MD5sum: 9fb6a03e91f01c162a2f8f37cfe8ac77 Flash this theme after booting once with the new ROM. Do not use this theme with earlier or later builds.
For installation, it says "Just follow the official CM7.1 installation via recovery guide (stable or nightly). The removed components will be retained on your NC from the previous ROM if you do not uninstall those (Titanium recommended) or do a clean wipe."
I do have Titanium and I backed up using the "all user apps and system data" option. Is that adequate or is there a different option I should be using? Also, since he mentions that the removed components will be retained on the NC if you don't uninstall those...how do you know which ones and how do you go about uninstalling those? I never actually used the uNooter or ROM Manager...so I'm trying to figure out how to make it work with the method I used the first time around (VeryGreen's: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957) What I've done is just renamed "encore_CM72-MiRaGe-01132012" with "update-" in the beginning, put it on the boot partition, and rebooted into recovery.
wrong button click, LOL
Anyway, that should be it.
Yeah, my NC seems to be working fine after just renaming it to "update-" in the beginning of the files and booting it into recovery, but the transparent battery indicator theme didn't seem to do anything
Also, this is a random question, but do your NCs' volume rocker thing seem kind of loose? I was just wondering if that's normal because mine you can move left and right (you can kind of wiggle the button itself).

My volume button does that too.
Oh good, I was hoping it wasn't some sort of issue with the button being broken or something.
Also, I asked this earlier, but could someone explain to me what to do since after updating a new [CM7.2-RC0] MiRaGe - KANG build, he says "The removed components will be retained on your NC from the previous ROM if you do not uninstall those (Titanium recommended) or do a clean wipe. If you don't need a clean wipe, i.e. current ROM is CM7.1, instead of step 5 in the guide, do wipe dalvik-cache only."
Is that what I should be doing? How do I go about it using VeryGreen's method (without using ROM Manager or ClockworkMod Recovery?)
I'm sorry if I just sound like a complete noob, but I'm trying to learn!
I know theres an another tut bu here how to super easy supercharge your device: (read the full tutorial if it is your first time!!!!)
Requirments:
-custom rom (I suggest latest minicm7)
-Script Manager installed.
-uncheck lock home in memory in cmsettings/performance !!
You dont have to worry about busybox if on minicm
So, after u run the script and all tests are passed you do this:
Notice: you need to run as root only (do not run at boot. how, what? just don't check the boot icon when run the script)
1st step:
Choose opton: 2
Wait and read.
Use local.prop
Wait. Preform super clean if script ask you.
Second:
(you can do it anytime, when you need some app to be locked in memory)
Run script again, this time choose option 17, than read what is on your screen!
Make bulletproof apps you use often (like messengers, browsers etc)
Third step:
Every few hours you should do option 18 (Engine flush)
You can say no to reatin cache if you don't have much lags
If you have problems preform super clean and reboot(option 30)
Or just reboot manually every day or so.
Anyways, theres no better settings..no lags, superultrafast multitasking.
I hoped i helped some people confused about this !

much helpful!! thanks..
bdw, what is the use of locking apps in memory?? how does bulletproof apps help??
To GingerDX Users:
1. Go to the original post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
2. Download boot_reinstaller_busybox_v1.19.3_wraithdu.zip
3. Unpack in your SD card.
4. With Script Manager, execute the script boot_reinstaller_busybox_v1.19.3_wraithdu.sh that is inside the folder you just unpacked.
5. Reboot and enjoy BusyBox 1.19.3 in GingerDX.
---
6. Now run the SuperCharger script of your preference.
Now why didn't I think of that... oh wait... I did!

Your question is the answer lol ...
It locks it in memory, so it can not be killed (it will resume every time you enter it, app will not startup again). (aka. bulletproof.)
First and foremost, thanks to Zeppelinrox for his awesome scripts that make turn an average phones in a ridicously fast devices. Now, what this script do and why you want to install in your Vibrant? This is what Zeppelinrox (the creator) says about it:
"Know that the script explains what it does before it does anything!
It holds your hand along the way and it will answer nearly all your questions as it moves along!","It works on ALL Android devices - Custom Roms or Stock Roms, Phones or Tablets, it doesn't matter!"
Also Note: Nothing else does what The V6 SuperCharger does!
................Not AutoKiller Memory Optimizer, Not Auto Memory Manager, Not Minfree Manager...
................And NOTHING BEATS IT. PERIOD.
So... if somebody says to you that V6 SuperCharger does the same thing as [pick any app], tell them to first read about what they're talking about so that they can actually have an informed opinion.
WHAT IT DO?
It makes your phone FAST... super snappy with better multitasking!
It rearranges and fixes the OOM Groupings and Priorites and lowmemorykiller values.
So basically, it's a COMPLETE MEMORY MANAGEMENT FIX!
It's the ONLY one of it's kind
NO LAUNCHER REDRAWS, faster than ever, multitasking is better... why?
Because it works with the lowmemorykiller and letting it work the way it's meant to work.
Also, because of the rearrangement, it works the same on all roms!
The problem with using minfree tweakers like AMM or Auto Killer Memory Optimizer is that it doesn't work the same on all roms.
Secondary apps may be in slot 3 on some roms but in slot 5 in others!
That's why you hear people comment "I tried AKMO but it didn't do anything..."
Most likely it didn't do anything because the apps weren't sitting where they were expected to be.
WHAT PEOPLE SAYS AFTER RUNNING THE SCRIPT SUCCESFULLY?
"Feels like I have a new phone!"
"V6 is one the best things to come to android."
"Supercharger rocks bro, I'm actually mad I waited so long to do it..."
"I wish I hadn't upgraded yet"
"Now I can wait to upgrade",
"I was about to throw this phone through the wall",
"I was about to return it but now I don't have to",
"This cured my phone of cancer!"
"Oh man... just applied the V6 Supercharger Script by ZeppelinRox on my Android.. I think it fixed everything..",
"I can't live without this!",
"My phone is better than new!",
"my phones has turned god mode on or something",
"I never notice this at all, until I flash a new rom and realize its not there anymore lol."
NOW, WHAT STUFF YOU NEED TO RUN THIS?
A) If you are on an ECCLAIR, FROYO or GINGERBREAD Vibrant you will need:
1) Script Manager APP (FREE on Playstore) and SM Widget APP (also FREE)
2) Starter kit (you MUST RUN this BEFORE run the v6 supercharger script) download here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1241890&d=1344115573
3) 3GTurboCharger_Installer_Update_3_RC11_Test_1.sh.pdf download here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1177767&d=1341456692
4) KickAssKernelizer_Tweaks_Installer_Update_3_RC11_Test_1.sh.pdf download here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1177768&d=1341456692
5) V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC11_Test_6.sh.pdf download here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1301041&d=1346732906
B) If you are on ICS and JELLYBEAN Vibrant ALSO you will need:
6) The services.jar patcher ONLY FOR WINDOWS (to make sure v6 script works @ 100%) PLEASE, PLEASE, READ this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869663 and DOWNLOAD the .zip file founded HERE:http://goo.gl/OfOOE
OK, I DOWNLOAD ALL STUFF NOW WHAT I DO?
A) ASSUMING THAT YOU ARE ON ECCLAIR, FROYO AND GINGERBREAD:
1) RUN Script manager app and tick the box it says "browse as root" and look the script you already downloaded on your phone. Like the DEV says, Run v6 supercharger script and just follow the directions provided while the script is running. KEEP reading what the script is doing in your device. The script will prompt you to touch the screen to use the KEYBOARD to select a series of options that will fix how the RAM will work after succesfully supercharge your device. EACH OPTION have a NUMBER.Use your keyboard to choose the option according to the number it represents. If you follow the easy instructions, soon it will tell that your phone is fully 100% SUPERCHARGED! ALSO, the fun beggins when you use option #16 (bulletproof apps) because you can leave open (bulletproofed) apps like PHONE, SMS, MEDIA, GAPPS, LAUNCHER and so on which result in SUPER FAST opening and more BATTERY since it will use LESS CPU to open those apps that otherwise ANDROID close by it's own.
2) RUN 3g turbocharger and like i said before, READ what script is doing and CHOOSE the options provided. This script help to have better download/ upload speeds on internet and wi-fi (how it works? i'm not DEV, READ ZEPPELINROX'S THREAD and read info regarding on how this works) BUT HEY! I use speedtest app and before and after running this script, i see a bit better speeds (results may vary, so try for yourself!)
3) RUN The kickass kernelizer script and tick "k" when prompted and read what the script is doing, once finished, tick the option to reboot your device and when it turns up, CHECK (RUN) v6 script to make sure is working at 100% (it will say it)
4) OPTIONAL: To make things even easier you can make WIDGETS of your scripts (v6 scharger, 3g turbocharger, resupercharger, and so on) to your homescreen!!! So look for widgets, tick SM WIDGETS, tick CHOOSE widget and BROWSE youR already made scripts that v6 supercharger made for you!!! THAT EASY!!!
B) NOW ASSUMING YOU ARE RUNNING WITH ICS OR JELLYBEAN DEVICE:
BEFORE TAKE THE 4 STEPS ABOVE, YOU NEED:
1) SERVICES.JAR PATCHER FOR WINDOWS .ZIP FILE ON YOUR PC ( I hope you already read the thread wich explains how it works)
2) EXTRACT THE SERVICES.JAR FOR WINDOWS AND LEAVE THE EXTRACTED WINDOW OPENED.
3) ONCE OPEN, TURN ON YOUR ANDROID DEBUGGING ON YOUR PHONE (Do NOT use as MASS STORAGE).
4) CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO PC.
5) RUN THE JellyScreamPatcher.exe and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. WHEN IT ASK IF YOU WANT TO SUPERCHARGE YOUR LAUNCHER, press Y OR THE KEY IMPPLIED TO DO SO.
6) WAIT till says is FINISHED. ONCE THEY SAY IT, THEN, ONLY THEN YOU CAN UNPLUGG YOU PHONE AND RUN THE STEPS ABOVE (A)
OK, YOU KNOW THE DISCLAIMER: YOU AND ONLY YOU MAKE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. IF YOUR PHONE EXPLODE IN MILLION PIECES AND / OR MAKE A NUCLEAR EXPLOTION, IT'S NOT MY FAULT - IS YOURS. BUT AFTER READING A LOT OF THIS STUFF, I DID THE VERY BEST TO YOU TO UNDERSTAND IT. REMEMBER, I'M NOT A DEV NOR THE CREATOR OF THIS AWESOME SCRIPT, SO IF YOU FIND THIS HELPFULL AND SUCCESFULLY YOU TURN YOUR VIBRANT IN A ELECTRONIC ROCKET, HIT THANKS BUTTON ON ZEPPELINROX THREAD, AND HERE FOR TRY THIS INSTRUCTIONS TO BE AS EASY AS POSSIBLE!
BEST REGARDS, SNC74
