Hello ACE user's I proudly present you the best of the best script ever made, created by zeppelinrox.
Well, the V6 Supercharger Script is an excellent tool to fix memory management on Android 2.3, just because the Gingerbread is very aggressive in memory management.
For best details on what this script do to your beloved phone visit his thread, he doesnt say this will run in ACE but i manage and tried to install in my phone and it works fine and now i say this is the best experience since i got this phone in my hands.
here we go.
Requirements:
1. Download busybox installer from market.
2. Download script manager from market.(make sure you instal this in INTERNAL memory)
3. Download V6 supercharger latest script from the original thread here.
4. Rootexplorer and of course you must be rooted.
Steps:
1. Run busybox installer and install busybox v1.18.2 (this will downgrade our current busybox v1.18.4) we need this because v1.18.3 above will cause an error which is not. (see attached image)
2. Run and configure script manager press the MENU button and go to MORE and then in ADVANCED OPTIONS and now in CONFIG and tick "browse as root" and leave other fields un-touch and exit. (see attached image)
3. Download V6 supercharger update8 script in original thread above and put in root of your sd card. (see attached image)
4. Run script manager by default it views the root of your sdcard find your downloaded V6 supercharger script and click/touch to it another window will appear tick "run as root" then run the script. (see attached image)
5. You will see the script running first chose a scrolling speed from 1-3 by touching the screen for the keyboard to pop-up (i prefer 3 for slow so you can follow the progress) then press enter in your keyboard.
6. Now you will see an option from 1-17 it has different value each option, select option 6 (balance 3) its the best for me, you can try other options of course, now press enter after typing # 6, wait to finish the scipt from running.
7. Now type option 16 to reboot the phone, the script will autorun, thats it enjoy and fell the greatness of your phone.
To check that the script is running and working please do step 4 and 5 and see attached image encircled in red if you have the same value then your good.
Optional: loopy smoothness. Very nice script and works very will with V6.
wow, supercharger..
surely will try it
Thanks
but there's is something written there
If you want to share this, just link to this thread.
If you want to make a thread in other forums telling people about it, that's great.
But I would prefer that you do not post a copy of the V6 SuperCharger installation script in those forums.
If you already have a thread with a copy attached, I won't bother you about it. But please don't attach further updates.

You can delete his tweak using root explorer, go to system/etc/init.d, mount r/w first.

I share here on what to do step by step in our ACE, its not there in his thread, but if someone knows how to install his script then one can go diectly to his thread for updating, BTW i will edit my post saying i will update if he has released new.
I always busybox error, asking me to change the version, I can not install ..... you know why? Thanks to all

Did you follow the instruction? did you install the busybox 1.18.2?
How about CF-Root? Is this compatible with CF-Root? CF-Root has busybox preinstalled...
For example, Black Hawk has busybox v.1.17.1, there is no need to instal another version of busybox.
All works, thanks.

His tweak overwrote 00tweaks on init.d wich came by default with CodeROM v2x-2b.
Any problem if i just leave it and install yours?
thanks

yes, I installed busybox 1.18.2, but I error. KPN I + CF-Root v80 stocks, that is the problem?
impressions:
1. increased rate of transitions from the menu.
2. pause when awake is almost negligible.
3... in progress)
EDIT: Nevermind... nice share!
From Chainfire's note:
It is possible to install a custom busybox over CF-Root v3.0 and newer. However, this is not without risk. CF-Root makes heavy use of scripting, and many CF-Root scripts rely on the internal busybox version. If you do install a seperate busybox version (always use "stericson" installer!), install it to /system/xbin. Installing it to /system/bin will mess things up for sure. Even if you do that part right, it may still break CF-Root, so make sure to make a backup before trying.

Higher version or even same version but compiled by different person (so could be have different applet compiled in) not always good for CF-Root. For an example, busybox without sh applet will break CF-Root including some user space applications.
I hit clear memory in task manager and started laughing when it showed 84 mb used, hahaha. Generally good in multitasking.

I have 125 only.
installed....good....seen a change in ram usage...less ram being used
During installation the script I saw a message that applies a patch to prevent the closure of the launcher. If I clear the memory in the task manager launcher is unloaded from memory. Or script does not work, or ... script does not work).
The Moto G (2014) has about a dozen good ROMs now, thanks to the awesome and hardworking devs...
However, an issue has been found to be consistent on all 5.1.x/CM12.1 ROMs..
VoIP services like WhatsApp calling don't work as expected, wherein if you place a call using any VoIP service, the other person can't hear you... and also vice-versa in some cases.
This is one of the primary reasons for users switching from these super stable nightlies to 4.4.4/5.0.2 stock ROMs.
However... this can be fixed at an individual user level, by following the below steps:
Requisites:
- Root Access (Implied)
- Either of the following:
A file manager to access & edit build.prop : like - ES File Explorer, Root Explorer, etc.
OR
Any other app that you can use to edit build.prop : like - Build Prop Editor(many apps on playstore), also kernel tweaking apps like Kernel Adiutor support build.prop edits
Process:
--A-- (If using a file manager)
Step 1: Make sure root access is granted to the manager.
Step 2: Browse to /system/
Step 3: Open build.prop with an editor, and follow the common steps mentioned.
--B-- (If using a build.prop editor):
Step 1: Open the app, grant root access.
Step 2: Use the search function, and follow the common steps mentioned.
--COMMON STEPS--
Step 1 : Search for
Code:
[I]use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=[FONT="Fixedsys"]true[/FONT][/I]
,
and replace the value to:
Code:
[I]use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=[FONT="Fixedsys"]false[/FONT][/I].
Step 2: ADD a string below the previous one from step 4:
Code:
[I]use.dedicated.device.for.voip=[FONT="Fixedsys"]false[/FONT][/I]
Step 3: Save and Reboot.
Step 4: Enjoy VoIP Services on all 5.1/CM12.1 ROMs.
Don't forget to hit thanks, if this helped you!
And more importantly, If you see a fellow user facing this issue, please guide them to this post. :good:
Thanks !
Thanks for sharing!
BOYS I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!! HERE IS THE FINAL SOLUTION FOR G.P.S. FC'S!!!
The problem is caused by libjavacore.so Arter released a fix for (what i think) lollipop releases only for info, DONT FLASH!. it forces a bootloop for 4.4.4.
BUUUUUUT Markox89 released this issue fixer but i was scared of destroying all optimzed libs and data from archidroid. so i copied Markox89s libjavacore.so aaaaaaaand it works!!!!
So step by step now:
1. download attached libjavacore.rar AND EXTRACT!!!!
2. Put the libjavacore.so somewhere on your phone
3. restart to TWRP (recovery)
4. make a nandroid backup (to be save if bootloop) --> full backup
5. open up mount and mount system
6. go to advanced and open file manager
7. now copy the new libjavacore.so (press on it and copy)
8. go to /system/lib
9. paste it
10. not sure if necessary but i pressed on libjavacore.so and sed chmod 755
11. reboot problem solved!!!!!!!!!!!
12. wipe data and cache from gps to avoid wakelock (go to settings-->apps-->g.p.s. (google play service)--> clear cache & manage space-->clear all data)!
13. install myandroidtools from playstore
14. reboot.
15. open myandroidtools --> services --> system
16. go to Google Play Services and google-services-framework and enable (make a tick at) at "System update service". (this will stop the google play services wakelock) BUT you need to tick it every restart. Keep on reading and you will find a solution to fix that automatically, but myandoidtools is nice to verify if it worked or not.
17. reboot. and your done
wakelock solution:
1. use boeffla kernel NOT THE NG (i9300 for 4.4.4 CM11.0 kernel - Stable )
2. enable init.d support in boeffla app under settings-->kernel start actions
3. download following script and put it in init folder like describted in Method #1: init.d Script
4. restart Phone
IF THAT DOESNT WORK and you still have update service wakelook. install universal init.d from playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sal.init.d&utm_source=//apk-freedownload.com/
You can check the wakelocks via wakelockdetector unplug your phone and wait at least 15 min.
now you never need to enable "System update service" after roboot by yourself
edit: after 4 months of use the error appeared again. couldn't fix it with doing the tutorial again. needed to reinstall my rom and did the tutorial afterwards. everything fine now
Hint: i dont get money for that information or anything else but try neatrom (the 4.4.4 version - AOSP) http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-i9300-aosp-neatrom-v5-8-t2603155 its running like a charm. combine it with boeffla kernel omni
http://boeffla.df-kunde.de/sgs3/boef...omni11/stable/ and u have a way more stable system than we have with this patch (and way less wakelocks )

you got me wrong. i rwote "12. wipe data and cache from gps". that means go to settings-->apps-->g.p.s. (google play service)--> clear cache & manage space-->clear all data.
iam not sure what do you talk about in your second sentence. i have no idea why do you have a bootloop. only reason could be you downloaded arters libjavacore.so. As i wrote DO NOT flash his file, its for 5.1 (lollipop)

Dude you are using a Note II. you see this thread its posted in a Samsung galaxy s3 subforum
Try to look for a fix in the note 2 part of xda
but anyway, good to know that it's not working for note 2
My suggestion. check for a 4.4.4 note2 rom that fixed the gps error. download the rom, extract it on your pc. go to /system/lib and copy the libjavacore.rar. with that libjavacore.rar you try my fix.

Wohooooo!! Works like a charm!
Thank you soooooo much twinko!!
Kudos to you for the step by step procedure. What a relief!

My phone went into a bootloop as soon as I replaced the lib file. I didnt even get a chance to set permissions.
A flashable zip would be more helpful.
Also, I have already used the technique one time before to fix the error, but it reappeared again for some reason. So, a flashable zip would be easier than manually replacing a file every time the problem resurfaces.

Are you playing it on your phone?
Want to know how to get around the root?
Do you have a good advice? Do you need one?
Please share it here instead of filling the development forums. Thanks
(My contribution? This thread!)
Been playing until Niantic decided to block root users. People use Magisk to bypass the hurdle but it's too much hassle for me.
CM using the built in root. "ISU" app plus kernel patch (can be found XDA). Works great.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
On my stock rooted cos13.1.2 i used thes steps. I started at step 3 as 2 wasnt relevant for me.
- Step one (Optional, but highly recommended): Take a nandroid backup. (A full backup of your phone)
- Step two: Uninstall Magisk, Xposed or any program that gets detected by safety net.
- Step three: Flash SuperSU SR5 v2.78 in TWRP
- Step four: Go to TWRP Terminal (TWRP Home > Advanced > Terminal) and type: echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" > /data/.supersu
- Step Five: Flash SuHide v0.55
- Step Six: Flash Systemless Xposed v86.2
- Step Seven: Reboot and Install Root Switch. Unzip the file and install the apk. Once installed, make sure to toggle usb debugging on, within the app.
- Step Eight: Install Xposed Material Manager

If you don't need root, you can install this one via recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
It is just a little script, which removes all files and traces of the most common root-versions (SuperSU, phh's, ...).
It was that simple for me, after I tried bypassing Safetynet without success on CM14.1 for hours, although I don't need root at all xD
DISCLAIMER:
I am not a developer – but an enthusiast. I do a bunch of random things (personally and professionally) and decided to take a shot at this because I really wanted to have Kali.
I am not suggesting anyone attempt to try this, but am merely providing the process I used to install Kali Nethunter on my Sprint G955U Samsung S8+. I am not responsible for any damages done to your device. Period. If you decide to try and attempt this, do so at your own risk (not going to lie, if I were you I’d wait till one of the developers on XDA posted their way… ha!).
NOTE: This process installs a working copy of Kali NetHunter on the stock data partition.
VIDEO: Posted a quick video on youtube (no sound or anything), but shows functionality. Will add link when it’s finished uploading.
Here we go:
Step 1: Rooted the S8+
*I used the newest instructions (as of 9/30/2017) Root
Step 2: Download nethunter-flo-marshmallow-3.0.zip
*The copy I used was found at nethunter-flo-marshmallow-3.0 (by jcadduono)
Step 3: Moved the .zip file (unzipped) from my computer to the Internal SD Card.
Step 5: Downloaded BusyBox, granted root, then installed Busybox 1.27.2 to /system/xbin and rebooted phone. ***MAKE SURE SCREEN BRIGHTNESS TURNED ALL THE WAY UP***
Step 4: Opened FlashFire, granted root, pressed the + sign and selected “Flash ZIP or OTA” (then navigated to the file location, selected the .zip file, and lastly selected “Mount /system read/write” option).
Step 5: Verified the order was “Flash ZIP or OTA,” then “EverRoot” (disabled) and lastly “Reboot” (normal). Started flash.
***Just like when flashing to achieve root the phone screen was very dark, HOWEVER you could faintly see processes running***
***UNLIKE when flashing to achieve root, this process pauses and requests user action (i.e. watch the phone, otherwise it might seem like a never ending flash)***
***When pressing selections during this stage, the display did not match where I touched the screen. I had to play around a bit to find out where I needed to press in order for each option to be selected.***
Step 6: ***DURING FLASH*** Will ask to confirm you are wishing to flash this file. Pressed acknowledged and pressed “next”
Step 7: ***DURING FLASH*** Will ask if you want to install any additional files (i.e. apps) that are included in the .zip file. I selected all of them (e.g. NetHunter, NetHunter Termial, NetHunter VNC, BlueNMEA, cSploit, DriveDroid, RF Analyzer, and Router Keygen, Shodan) and pressed “next”
Step 8: ***DURING FLASH*** Will state flash is completed and ask to reboot phone, pressed “next”
Step 9: Opened NetHunter, NetHunter Terminal, and NetHunter VNC and granted root to each.
Step 10: Switched to NetHunter, waited for install to complete, then selected “Kali Chroot Manager,” selected “Add Metapackags” and clicked “Install & Update.” When complete I rebooted phone.
Step 11: Opened NetHunter and selected “Check App Update” (an update was available), downloaded newest version.
Step 12: Verified “Unknown sources” was selected to allow install of apps from sources other than Play Store or Galaxy Apps (go to settings > lock screen and security > unknown sources)
Step 13: Uninstalled current NetHunter apk and then located the newly downloaded NetHunter distro. (named latest.apk), selected and installed it.
Step 14: Opened latest NetHunter apk distro, granted root, waited for install, then verified “Kali Chroot Manager.” Rebooted phone. Done.
***Sorry I know it sucks it's not on a modified boot.img BUT it works.

Step 4: Opened FlashFire, granted root, pressed the + sign and selected “Flash ZIP or OTA” (then navigated to the file location, selected the .zip file, and lastly selected “Mount /system read/write” option).
Step 5: Verified the order was “Flash ZIP or OTA,” then “EverRoot” (disabled) and lastly “Reboot” (normal). Started flash.
***Just like when flashing to achieve root the phone screen was very dark, HOWEVER you could faintly see processes running***
***UNLIKE when flashing to achieve root, this process pauses and requests user action (i.e. watch the phone, otherwise it might seem like a never ending flash)***
***When pressing selections during this stage, the display did not match where I touched the screen. I had to play around a bit to find out where I needed to press in order for each option to be selected.***
Step 6: ***DURING FLASH*** Will ask to confirm you are wishing to flash this file. Pressed acknowledged and pressed “next”
Step 7: ***DURING FLASH*** Will ask if you want to install any additional files (i.e. apps) that are included in the .zip file. I selected all of them (e.g. NetHunter, NetHunter Termial, NetHunter VNC, BlueNMEA, cSploit, DriveDroid, RF Analyzer, and Router Keygen, Shodan) and pressed “next”
Step 8: ***DURING FLASH*** Will state flash is completed and ask to reboot phone, pressed “next”
Step 9: Opened NetHunter, NetHunter Terminal, and NetHunter VNC and granted root to each.
Step 10: Switched to NetHunter, waited for install to complete, then selected “Kali Chroot Manager,” selected “Add Metapackags” and clicked “Install & Update.” When complete I rebooted phone.
Step 11: Opened NetHunter and selected “Check App Update” (an update was available), downloaded newest version.
Step 12: Verified “Unknown sources” was selected to allow install of apps from sources other than Play Store or Galaxy Apps (go to settings > lock screen and security > unknown sources)
Step 13: Uninstalled current NetHunter apk and then located the newly downloaded NetHunter distro. (named latest.apk), selected and installed it.
Step 14: Opened latest NetHunter apk distro, granted root, waited for install, then verified “Kali Chroot Manager.” Rebooted phone. Done.
***Sorry I know it sucks it's not on a modified boot.img BUT it works.

FYI if you update your fiemare and bootloader to the latest combination rom (aqi1) and update flashfire it is no longer super dark when flashing stuff.
Not sure if updating FF helps or not but it doesn't hurt

Appreciate the tip, wish I had known before trying this!!
Is anyone else having a problem w/ Flashfire not seeing the Kali.zip file? I've added it to the internal SD card and the external SD card and Flashfire still cannot see it. The file exists as I've verified via Windows and also via a file explorer app on the phone. I even renamed the file, thinking that may be the issue, but still no dice.
**EDIT** Looks as if I was downloading the wrong zip file. I navigated myself to their download page and downloaded the Nexus 9 Marshmallow zip file. When flashing, I was NOT given the aroma environment that you described, probably because I used a different zip file, but everything installed PERFECTLY. Your instructions were spot on OP, and for that, I thank you!!

Well, there's a lot of benefits of having Kali. But there is no difference in having Kali on mobile vs pc

I believe he was inferring he didn't plan on being an active developer for this, just being kind enough to share how he accomplished the task. But now that it's been done, it likely won't be too long before a project comes along.
Hell, I might even take this one on myself. ?
Cool i mean id love to get a nose in and have a go too if equally you want to communicate about the dev
