planing to build somewhat custom rom from stock GB rom. - Droid Pro General

so yeah. i have done so themeing and i want to take this farther.. thing is i'm a total noob to the coding process. if you have any idea what your doing (and your DeOdexed, if nobody is DeOdexed i can send out my files..?) then please help me.
1. what i want
2. what i have
3. overclock (as of now)
4. how to test what i have so far
5. How to help me out
1.) what i want (for starters anyway):
-1% battery mod
- swipe to remove notifications from status bar
- an overclockable kernel? i have managed to overclock my CPU to 1305 Mhz by modifying my build.prop and using quickclock advanced overclock..
- a Rom name.. i'm not very creative. Post a cool Rom name for this maybe guys? cmon, right now its SaberTooth though.
- native screenshot ability
- status bar toggles, maybe? like WiFi toggle, airplane mode, etc. like cyanogen mod
-CRT on animation enabled
- is it possible to port sense 4.0 accordion effect?
2.) what i have:
-themed status bar
-some BlurHome icon changes
-CRT off animation enabled (only off animation, not on.. Yet
.. yeah i fail..
3.) find ro.product.model=MB612 in your build.prop (located at /system) and change that line ONLY to ro.product.model=XT720. this will trick most apps into thinking your xprt is a Motorola milestone.
you must do this because quickclock advanced overclock doesn't allow the overclock unless its a device that they tested, witch of course the XPRT wasn't tested.. then download quickclock advanced overclock, click calibrate,click automatic, check everything and press proceed. when it has finished do back to the main menu and click overclock and set ur values. mine are
1305 MHz 74 vsl
1000 MHZ 56 vsl
600 MHz 36 vsl
300 MHz 21 vsl
stability buffer: 15
click set CPU and keep.
after you have tested to make sure its stable, open the main menu, scroll down click advanced, boot, delay by (anything between 5-30) seconds, and enable it.
4.) NOTE:do not do this unless:
-Rooted
-Deodexed ( deodex gingerbread attempt {might help if ur lost? if ot i guess ill upload my DeOdexed files?})
-Running Gingerbread
-Using Sprint (maybe, not sure correct me if i'm wrong)
-Have backups. (clockwork-mod, and backup Ur current framework-res.apk, systemUI.apk, and BlurHome.apk -- in mine my .9 patches are screwed up and you cant compile them correctly anymore)
download the attachment and extract it. copy and paste framework-res.apk to /system. fix permissions (mine are rw rw rw, not sure if its supposed to be) and then paste it into /system/framework. (phone will auto reboot)
copy and paste BlurHome.apk and SystemUI.apk to /system, again, fix permissions, (mine are rw r r for BlurHome.apk and rw rw rw for SystemUI.apk) then copy and paste them one at a time to /system/app. (i believe they get force closes as soon as you copy, just lock screen, unlock and then power off phone and back on, then copy in the other app.)
done!
5.) If you downloaded what i have and change anything you feel is for the better, reply with the .apk you changed attached (any .apk, not just the ones i gave out) and tell me witch files inside the .apk were changed and there locations.(just so i can pull the modified files out and add everything to My current .apk)
i need like.. a team

Hahahaha this went no where xD i suck. Whatever

[How To] + [MOD] Custom Transition Animations (UPDATED)

Watching the same transition animations over and over is boring. You can speed them up with Spare Parts or you can just shut them off entirely within settings. There is, though, a third road: change 'em.
These are videos of most of the transition animations packs (Drod's rubiX animations, Fab's animation mix, and Android Stock have no videos at present).
Flip
YouTube - Android Screen Transitions
Bounce
YouTube - Samsung moment animations, bounce
Fold
YouTube - Sbtwca
FlyIn
YouTube - Samsung moment animations, fly in
There are two preferred ways to use these animations:
1. Add Animations Using Metamorph: should work for most roms. Thanks Haxzamatic!
Transition Animation MetaMorph Files - http://bit.ly/gwEB5F
Note: there is no current MetaMorph file for either Android Stock or Fab's mix (see below).
2. Manually Add Animations: should work for most roms
This process will be helpful for those wanting to mix and match animations from the folders. In fact, why don't you create your own mix and post it here so everyone else can appreciate your awesomeness. I'll add new mixes below if they come in.
1. Simply get ahold of the anim folder with the animations you want to use and the framework-res.apk from the rom you're interested in modifying (/system/framework/framework-res.apk).
2. Open up the framework-res.apk in 7zip (right click on it, and select "open archive").
3. Drag the anim folder with the animations (which you can download below) into /res folder in your framework-res.apk. This will replace the files currently in /res/anim.
4. Exit out of 7zip.
5. You now need to push the modified framework-res.apk onto the phone. You can do this by placing the modified framework-res.apk in the root sdcard folder, and entering the following into terminal emulator on your phone or using ADB when the sdcard is mounted:
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot
If you're using terminal emulator, your phone will probably reboot before you finish re-mounting and/or typing reboot.
NOTE: This is taken almost wholesale from MagnusRagnarok (initial post) and ronhova (detailed instructions) on XDA; they deserve the credit. Link To Original Post.
Since this process modifies your rom's framework-res.apk, it obviously won't work with other roms. Translation: don't take the framework you've just modified and try to put it on other roms. IF YOU DO THIS, YOU WILL DIE.
Animation Files: for manual addition
Bounce
Flip
Fly In
Fold
Drop In (from Drod's rubiX focused series)
Fly In and Flip Mix (from Fab's Apex)
Android Stock
Nice!!
But credit should really go to MagnusRagnarock. I just like it so much that I had to have it for my droid x.
Oh by the way, some of you might not get pass the second line of code. After you push the framework-res.apk back to your phone, the phone will do a soft reboot inside terminal. Applying all your changes. Don't freak out!
I recomend mixing and matching the transitions. Looks even better!
I'm using the fold transition for my lock screen and the fly transition for everything else.

Hey there, thanks for the instructions, by the way. You should post /anim folder so we can all enjoy your custom set. If I had more time I'd be experimenting like crazy to get the perfect mix.
I made some morphs so there easy to apply. Sadly I don't have a X to try on. They worked great with CM6. As long as the framework is in /system/framework
it should work. Great find

Ok I'm sorry if this is a little of topic but I would like yo try this but when I go to download 7 zip and set it up it tells me to first scan my registry and I find this highly odd.....I have downloaded 4 times from 4 places that I have looked up including what I thought was the main site and get this prompt...does anyone have a proper link for 7 zip?
you are so incredible thanks yes it works in the droid X and they are amazing thanks for the work
Thank you haxzamatic. I just used these on Fission 2.2.1 and they seem to be working. No force closes or anything.

can someone please tell me which xml file deals with the opening of an app? i only want an effect when an app opens.
thanks.
I keep getting to the third line of code and get a can't state device or resourse busy. Any Ideas? I've formatted my SD card fat32 and placed the framework-res.API on the SD card. Anything that I'm missing??? Thanks for the transitions, simply amazing with

Anyone knows that?
I just tried flip on my D1 via metamorph, it didn't work...
Hi all - I tried it too - worst than no luck - it make my phone unusable.
1) it wrote there are no space for frameworl.apk - unfortunately original framework was deleted or changed
- then nearly all app and android does not respond
only one way is power off, but phone hangs at samsung logo.There are no samsung small blinking word and android will not start
- luckily reflash firmware with ODIN via download mode works
2) same step, but first I deleted Layar.apk from system folder to be sure I ahve enough space like author of flying animation JPF ROM at this forum.
I repeated then again copy framework with same space result and phone unusable, again flash over ODIN - I give up :-(
I tried mount as ro as at step 3rd, but it wrote busy message like someone else alraedy posted here.
- updated - I manually removed Layar.apk and Maps.apk from /system folder
then I had enough space for copy framework-res.apk
but still command mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
wrote cannot unmount, system busy
I rebooted phone normally and I am testing if framework changed or what happened
I already successfully enabled LiveWallpapers and now only framework is what I am missing from ROM with flying animation JPF ROM at this forum.
Any tips ?
I have I5800XXJPM from samfirmware.com , rooted ...

Yeah
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Yes it works with just about every ROM, but, in my view, I can't see any benefit. (I dont play Angry Birds, and, the rest of the games and LWP's don't show any benefit).
How do you do this?
Just flash it like a rom?
Well, that's what I initially did. Flash the ZIP in Post #49 in that thread. But, on reading that complete thread, I guess you have to edit the build.prop file in /system (Using Root Explorer / ADB Push Pull).
However, this is where I cant get it to work. WHenever I add the 2 lines in Root Explorer and Save Changes, the phone reboots. If I use ADB, even after pushing, when I check the same file using build.prop, no changes are visible, (The opengles.version automatically reverts back to 65536 and the line which enabled hardware acceleration of the UI is gone) and, ASI only shows OpenGL 1.0 due to this
Well, I have no idea what I am doing wrong, will try it out again and see..
I'm a newb with this.
Could someone possibly make a bit more explained guide?
Very basic guide:
* Get Root Explorer or any other file manager that can show the root folders
* Open Root Explorer, change permissions on top to R/W (Be very careful after that. Dont delete anything!)
* Locate the file build.prop under /system
* Long Press the file, Select Edit with Text Editor
* Updated: (ADB Commands Copy - Pasted from another post by kevin2516. Thanks mate )
*Make sure ADB is installed on your system and it is working. There are many guides available to install ADB, so I wont be going into that.
*Start Command Prompt (cmd), Browse to your "Tools" folder into your SDK
*Use the ADB Pull Command adb pull /system/build.prop
*This will now be saved to your tools folder. Edit is using Wordpad / Notepad++ (Not Notepad) as follows:
*Locate a line which starts with dalvik. (The first one, there are 3 of them)
Add the following 2 lines before that:
debug.sf.hw=1
ro.opengles.version=65537
* Save it.
* Push it back to System using the ADB Push Command: adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
* Reboot ADB using the adb reboot command
* Then, grab the Flashable Zip in that thread from Post #48
* Flash it as normal
Done.
Check whether it is implemented or not by going to Android System Info > System Tab > OpenGL. Here, there are 2 OpenGL versions. The first line should say 1.1, and the second should say OpenGL 1.0 ES.
With S-On you cannot change the systemfile directly I think. Thats the reason why your system not keep the change. I have write by myself a little install zip and flash it with nandroid and it works. the zip only works with wildpuzzlerom v0.8 and you can find in the thread for wpr0.8.

Well, I took your flashable ZIP, removed the build.prop it contained, and replaced it with the build.prop of CM7 Nightly 2. Then, I tried flashing it, still no change.
Now, I have no idea whether I am 'allowed' to change flashable ZIP's like that or not, but, from what it is looking like, I am still unable to get this working on CM7NB2. I'll probably try making a flashable ZIP from scratch later as I get time.

If it's simple enough, it would be nice if you could tell how to do a flashable zip (or yourself make a one suitable for CM6/7 ). I just want to test these libraries on CM7, any help is appreciated

You wrote : last edit: I didn't notice any difference, much like the test ran above. I'm going to revert until more knowledgeable people look at this.
if it is like you saying, then i dont have point to that **** too.
i think devs who makes this rom should instal in rom everything what can increase perfomance. so im waiting for the rom with all those things instaled.
will it happen someday?:/

Which is exactly what I said in the CM7 thread. No one here has till date, found verifiable gains, with using OpenGL on the Wildfire. Everyone reports the same thing, that there is no or absolutely negligible (Which I think is just a mind thing) change in gaming / intensive applications performance.
If you are looking for ROM's wit inbuilt OpenGLES Support, WildPuzzle has a flashable ZIP, and DS and DK Roms provides it inbuilt in its latest version. For the others, the manual method has to be followed.

[OBSOLETE] Great Combo For Galaxy Ace

This is a list of Galaxy Ace ROM, kernel, and tweaks that (when combined) will make your Ace run blazingly fast!
Tested by me.
I'm not responsible if your Ace went wrong. Make a backup first.
Before we start, make sure you have backup for your important data and applications.
Best ROM
Not sure which is the best ROM, it's relative. So far, for stock ROM lovers you can use Blackhawk ROM by ketut.kumajaya
Best Kernel
CF-Root for S5830. I have no comments. An amazing kernel.
Best RAM Tweak (for stock ROMs without CF-Root only)
Juwe's RAM optimization script. It's working fine on Ace, but the boot time will take longer than usual.
Best Animation Tweak (will smoothen animations on stock XXKPH ROM and activate CRT animation on coderom)
Not sure who share this tutorial, but you will get smooth animations after you have applied this tweak. Using Root Explorer, mount /system/ to RW, edit build.prop, find debug.hw, add a hash "#" before it. Save and reboot. Original post here.
For the best result: make sure you have activate a2sd and convert filesystem to ext4 using ext4 Manager (available through CF-Root) and do NOT apply Conservative Gov (when applied, it will save battery life but will slow down performance)
Okay, that's all.
Please report to me if you get something wrong so I can revise this thread.
I was gonna install coderom for the reboot button feature (on phone options), but the link was down.
Please add this: enabling crt on gingerbread rom by adding a hash (#) to debug.hw in build.prop smoothen everything a lot, especially popups.
XDA ♥
- XXKPH
- Easy Deodex + Root (XDA)
- Zipalign on boot setting from A2SD GUI
- CF -Root updated to b78
- update to CWM 4.0.0.9
- Internal memory converted to ext 4 (by ext4 manager)
- set tweaks => default (no checked list)
thats great combine! i've used this...
very smoothly guys...
thanks,just flash up the RAM optimizer with CWM~

Hi fla.sh,
I don't think anyone will go wrong when they have great combo like this. I have all of them in my SGA. (Of course with CRT as mentioned by consegregate)
Now my ace runs very smoothly.
Hey, if I apply the ram optimization... how do I get to the original configuration? A flash of the kph rom (the one i have) would be enough?
I'd say just deleting the script file should be enough.
And lol that's exactly what I have on my Ace. Plus the CRT animation.

Hi,
I have this question for you... Do I need to install everything in the post CF-Root for S5830 like CF root manager, Tweak, EXT4 Manager etc., or just the below mentioned part is enough?
I just flashed this part to my SG Ace.
Instructions (long)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip CF-Root-S5830-v3.7-b78.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN v4.38
- Click the OPS button, and select Cooper_v1.0.ops
- Click the PDA button, and select CODE_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03-CF-Root-v3.7-b78.tar.md5
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
I tried Quardant after installing this Kernel which gave me 1043 (sdcard class 2) which is as equal to what I got before without this kernel. What is your thought?
Quadrant won't show any difference until you convert your system to ext with the exr4 manager.

Hi All,
I have an issue (may be not), I haven't installed the DT a2sd addon from this thread as I already run on coderom Nexus which has DT a2sd. I entered into Terminal and typed SU and then a2sd repair. After boot I saw i have only 24MB as EXT4 in a2sd GUI and Dalvik cache moved back to internal memory, but I created 2GB as EXT4 while partition which still appears in my Titanium backup. Did I do anything wrong? Which app is correct? Please help. I have uploaded screenshots from both apps.

[GUIDE] Make VooDoo Settings Stick on Boot

FIRST: Supercurio makes a really awesome app, so I highly recommend purchasing the pro version to support further development for two reasons. First, it's the right thing to do and second, I haven't figured out how to make all of the VooDoo sound settings work yet, and I'm a busy college student in my senior year attempting to convince someone to pay me, so I don't have much time on my hands (thus my erratic shower schedule).
That being said, I have attached a script that I run on boot. That being said, I'm running AOSP's oiCSv43 ROM with Eugene's Speedy 2 kernel. So long as your kernel supports the following options (which will be listed below), you shouldn't have a problem with this script. I've also verified that it works just peachy with GLaDOS 2.5 for ICS-- another very good ICS kernel [I head 2.6 is quite nice]. (This should also work for GB roms if anyone cares to test for me)
You must have
root
superuser
busybox, or an alternate way to mount /system as writable (there are 2 other methods AFAIK)
ROM that supports init.d scripts OR scripter or some other app like it (in this case, you can just add the script to scripter and set it to run on boot)
If you don't (know if you) have init.d support, check out this post by damnmisur about scripting with ROM Toolbox
This script changes the following:
cpu governor -> interactive
max freq->1000mhz
min freq->150mhz
touchwake enabled with 10 second delay
back light dimmer settings are commented out, so it uses whatever is default for you kernel
bln enabled with blink disabled
blx commented out (reverts to kernel default which is likely 96%)
voodoo_color/red_multiplier->2724764160
voodoo_color/green_multiplier->3059586880
voodoo_color/blue_multiplier->2944130880
voodoo_color/red_v1_offset->-26
voodoo_color/green_v1_offset->-30
voodoo_color/blue_v1_offset->-33
voodoo sound anti-jitter, hi-fi play, hi-fi record, dac direct, voodoo sound control enabled
headphone_amplifier_level->+3db
voodoo sound mono downmix disabled
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! I AM NOT LIABLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG!!!
NANDROID NANDROID NANDROID.

The file has no extension! If you want to edit it, open it in a text editor. If you don't know what you're doing, don't play with it. To disable boolean values, change the 1 (1 means true i.e. on) to a 0 (which means false, i.e. off).
frequency values are in hertz
you can find out what scaling governors and frequencies your kernel supports by typing
Code:
adb shell
su
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
Feel free to edit anything you'd like!
DO NOT FLASH THE .ZIP FILE! Extract and follow the directions above
thanks....
Nice but some of your changes are the exact opposite of what I use. So I'll just change voodoo settings because I'll be a lot less to change with every boot than if I was to use this.
I do of course use easy settings. Color multipliyer: all the way right.
Gama: all the way left.

Don't voodoo settings stick by default? It seems my voodoo settings stick just fine without using any script?

They do with the PRO version, not the free one. I've also never had a problem with them NOT sticking on Pete Alfonso's GPA19, or any GB ROM for that matter, but many ICS users, including myself, have not been able to get our settings to stick recently.
This also means that I don't have to use NSTools or VooDoo Control.
Translation:
no apps changing settings on boot->
fewer individual SU requests (count the number of toast notifications, or check the request list in the superuser app for NSTools and VooDoo control on boot)->
faster boot sequence, and less lag on boot.
Not everyone may have this problem, but I and others do.
I'm visiting for a lesson, had read this before on aosp's or Eugene's kernel threads, but didn't get it so, wanted to ask and thank you for this help.
I'm trying to make voodoo stick, I downloaded your zip, opened and changed a couple of things in Wordpad, it asked to save and rezip, said yes. I used different multipliers and want bln to blink, so changed those numbers and the blink 0 to 1 (or vice versa, followed your directions).
So to do this, do I just flash zip in recovery? Any wipe or just flash away??
Like you said, I will backup, but really don't want to make a mess and thought I would double check first.

Don't flash the zip. It's just there so that I could upload the attachment properly.
The script is in the zip. To install:
Unzip archive into same directory as adb (or wherever you want if you know what you're doing)
open a terminal
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
exit
adb push 99whirlpool-Speedy_2 /system/etc/init.d/99whirlpool-Speedy_2
adb shell
chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/99whirlpool-Speedy_2 && reboot
I'll add a readme to the zip to make it more obvious.

If your just worried about voodoo settings you could do the following :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366780 or just use the script from this method. Of course you have to edit numbers to your preference.

Thanks, I'm going to add this post to the OP as an alternative for those without init.d support

[CWM][Flashable]Init.d Support and Tweaks for Aurora ICS

The aurora_4.1+-init.d-addon zip is compatible with Aurora v4.1+.
The OOM-Priority-Charger-v1.4-Aurora-4.1a zip is compatible ONLY with Aurora v4.1a.
You can visit android.mimic.ca to upload and automatically patch your newer services.jar in an updated Aurora version.
Hello everyone,
I have created an update package that enables init.d support and also has some premade scripts to tweak various settings by the user e.g.
- Synaptics Touchscreen Sensitivity
- Apply FPS Novatek Fix to raise FPS to 53fps
- Set CPU Frequency and Governor
- Disable Atmel Haptic Feedback
- Turn VSync OFF
- Raise SDCard Read Ahead Value
All the above settings are at their defaults meaning that you must change the Settings in the Scripts and reboot to apply them, otherwise all values are the defaults in Aurora after flashing the Package.
It also includes and by default enables Androcharger (V6 SuperCharger tweaked by blk_jack for Desire Z, it is the same as V6's option 5), KickAssKernelizer by zeppelinrox and Loopy Smoothness tweak.
For a full "Supercharge" you must also tweak services.jar via android.mimic.ca (See the V6 Supercharger link for info). I have attached the CWM flashable zip for Aurora 4.1a (OOM-Priority-Charger-v1.4-Aurora-4.1a.zip).
Disclaimer
I am not responsible for any damage to your Device.
Notes:
This will make your boot slower as all these scripts have to be executed at startup. Especially the Loopy Smoothness Tweak will add at least 3 seconds at boot.
To apply Changes you have to Reboot
Changelog:
v1: Initial Release
v2: Resolve Bootloops for Atmel Users
Links:
V6 SuperCharger by zeppelinrox
AndroCharger by blk_jack
Thanks to dzo for his excellent ROM and the U8800 xda community for many of the tweaks.
And of course thanks to zeppelinrox, blk_jack, the EVO 4G developers.
Tweaking Values of Scripts
To tweak the Scripts you must use a File Explorer to navigate to /systemd/etc/init.d/ and open the files with your Favourite Text Editor.
There are instructions in each script.
In detail:
- 11synaptics_sens
Tweak Synaptics Touchsreen sensitivity, values 1 to 8, default=4 to accomodate your fingers and remove "jittering"
Simply replace 4 with your desired value.
- 12fpsfix
This enables the FPS fix that raises the panel's Frame Rate to ~53 from ~46.
This may not work for all phones but it is customizable, to enable it just uncomment (remove the starting #) from the echo line.
- 13cpu
Set your Desired Min/Max CPU Frequency and Governor. You may use copy and paste and finding values by opening:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
For Example to use SmartassV2 replace "echo ondemand > /sys/...." with "echo smartassV2 > /sys/...." in line 9.
If you use SmartassV2 There are extra tweaks for Performance and a highly suggested tweak for Sleep Ideal Frequency.
- 14atmel_haptic_disable
Disable Atmel Haptic Feedback (i.e. Vibration on Touch) by uncommenting the echo line. If you want to enable replace 0 with 1.
(I believe the default is ON here, some atmel user input is appreciated)
- 69vsync_off
This file disables VSync. This will increase FPS, performance and benchmark scores but it will introduce Tearing (try e.g. SpeedX with and without VSync to see jarred lines) and it will probably drain battery faster.
Simply uncomment (remove starting #) from line 8 (echo '0' > /sys/kernel/debug/msm_fb/0/vsync_enable)
- 71sdcard_read_ahead
This file raises the read ahead value for your SDCard meaning faster throughput.
----------
The files 96AndroCharger,97loopy_smoothness_tweak,98KickAssKernel should not be edited.
If you wish to use V6 SuperCharger please remove 96AndroCharger first.
Thank you man this is really usefull, gona try ASAP
BTW "For a full "Supercharge" you must also tweak settings.jar via android.mimic.ca", maybe you wanted to say "services.jar" ?
What is inside the flashable ZIP
The ZIP contains a modified boot.img(its initrd image and specifically init.rc not the Kernel), init.d scripts and an executable file: /system/bin/sysinit that in turn executes all init.d scripts.
The source can be modified to support init.d by applying the attached patch to init.rc in platform/system/core repository of CAF. The init.rc is located in rootdir directory.
The patch is a simple two line patch to run sysinit. I will test, and it will of course be preferable to embed sysinit contents directly in init.rc.
Otherwise the initrd.img in the final bootimage can be unpacked,modified and repacked.
I also modified the update script to set permissions on the init.d directory to 755 and owned by root:shell.
Finally, init.qcom.post_boot.sh has been modded so as not to overwrite CPU settings and exec again 13cpu. I may try to modify it so as to source 13cpu instead.

First impressions after first reboot "wow, this thing is really smoother ^^"
Secound impressions after turn on "12fpsfix" "OMG I have a new mobile phone xD"
Boot its slower, but not that much.
Right after boot i have 173 MB free ram, dont really know how much i had before, what i know is that launcher is not redrawing thats really cool
Until now i can only say this, amazing improvement for Aurora, thank you zephyr1988, I will keep in touch with further testing
EDIT: Aps are opening and closing faster too
Thank you so much for this zephyr.
like kaza said, this impoves smoothess a lot.
And being able to use sd-ext again is really good
Thanks again for this!
Yes, improves everything a lot!

Thanks for testing kaza I'm glad it is useful for you
Thank zeppelinrox for his supercharger and the EVO 4G devs for these two things.
I was simply lucky to find them
@Loureiro,fjsferreira
Glad it works for you guys and thanks for testing
A quick question...
"If you use SmartassV2 There are extra tweaks for Performance and a highly suggested tweak for Sleep Ideal Frequency."
If I change to SmartassV2 with No-frills CPU Control will I benefit from that extra tweaks or only if I change it in 13cpu?
EDIT: Nevermind I saw that its needed to uncoment some lines

No Frills will overwrite 13cpu's settings in all cases but if you use smartassv2 in 13cpu and enable the tweaks they should stick, I believe.
In two words, use smartassV2 in both No Frills and 13cpu.
Try enabling the sleep ideal freq tweak and then open with a file manager the file:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/smartass/sleep_ideal_freq
(or in a terminal:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/smartass/sleep_ideal_freq)
and see if the value is 368640. If it is it works.
Don't know why, but I installed Aurora 4.0, installed all my apps and then rebooted into Recovery to flash the two Zip files attached to the first post and the phone now is bootlooping :\

Are you sure this is because of this mod?
Have you installed other mods too?
Before trying a fresh install, try deleting the three files 96Androcharger, 98KickAsskernel and 97loopy_smoothness_tweak via Pink Screen and PC. Then it is exactly the same as normal aurora and your problem is elsewhere.
Then you should try doing a fresh install of Aurora 4.0, then flash this zip and see if you get bootloops before installing other mods or apps.
wow, I know this will sound strange but at least for me it really happens, i had some slow downloads with Aurora just like most of the guys were reporting, I am using 12fpsfix, 13cpu with 368 min, 1.4 max, smartassV2 with teawks and 71sdcard_read_ahead, and now my downloads are really faster, downloading Asphalt 6 cache now was really fast, maybe its because my read and write speeds of sdcard were increased, dont know, but this is the best tweak so far for Aurora in my opinion lol

Yes, I have noticed this too, and also Internet browsing is a little speedier for me.
KickAssKernelizer and SuperCharger(i.e. the modified Androcharger script) apply kernel and tcp stack optimizations

I tried it with ICS 4.0.4 Toucwiz 5 theme and resulted a bootloop. I will re-install ICS4.0.4 and then your scripts to see if they are working.

I haven't installed any other mods. I'm going to do a fresh install and then install the two zip files and report what happened!
------------ EDIT ------------
Made a fresh install of Aurora 4.0 and flashed the two zip files from the first post, rebooted the phone, and it entered in bootloop again. Would you upload the files to another host (maybe the files I downloaded are corrupted?).
Don't know why this happens :|

Did a fresh install but same result(bootloop). Does it make any diffrence which file you install from CWM first?
right after flashing those files, go to Advanced->Report Error. Then mounts and storage -> mount USB storage. You will find inside clockworkmod dir a .log file with debug lines. If something went wrong (mounting or unmounting partitions), it's all there.
Btw which CWM are you using? 5.0.2.7 or 5.5.0.4?
