I found this in Android Software and Hacking General selection (all credits to Lambgx02)
Lambgx02: "So, I was experiencing significant lag as we all do from time to time, and decided I was going to get to the bottom of it.
After tracing and debugging for hours, I discovered the source of 90% of Android's lag. In a word, entropy (or lack thereof).
Google's JVM, like Sun's, reads from /dev/random. For all random data. Yes, the /dev/random that uses a very limited entropy pool.
Random data is used for all kinds of stuff.. UUID generation, session keys, SSL.. when we run out of entropy, the process blocks. That manifests itself as lag. The process cannot continue until the kernel generates more high quality random data.
So, I cross-compiled rngd, and used it to feed /dev/urandom into /dev/random at 1 second intervals.
Result? I have never used an Android device this fast.
It is literally five times faster in many cases. Chrome, maps, and other heavy applications load in about 1/2 a second, and map tiles populate as fast as I can scroll. Task switching is instantaneous. You know how sometimes when you hit the home button, it takes 5-10 seconds for the home screen to repopulate? Yeah. Blocking on read of /dev/random. Problem solved. But don't take my word for it .. give it a shot!
Update!
I've built a very simple Android app that bundles the binary, and starts/stops the service (on boot if selected). I'll be adding more instrumentation, but for now, give it a shot! This APK does not modify /system in any way, so should be perfectly safe.
This is my first userspace Android app, so bear with me!
Note that this APK is actually compatible with all Android versions, and all (armel) devices. It's not at all specific to the Captivate Glide.
Caveats
There is a (theoretical) security risk, in that seeding /dev/random with /dev/urandom decreases the quality of the random data. In practice, the odds of this being cryptographically exploited are far lower than the odds of someone attacking the OS itself (a much simpler challenge).
This may adversely affect battery life, since it wakes every second. It does not hold a wakelock, so it shouldn't have a big impact, but let me know if you think it's causing problems. I can add a blocking read to the code so that it only executes while the screen is on. On the other hand, many of us attribute lag to lacking CPU power. Since this hack eliminates almost all lag, there is less of a need to overclock, potentially reducing battery consumption."

Download from here
Flash in recovery...it installs an init.d script to launch at boot, rngd and entropy_watch binaries amd also am extended menu by me....after flashing, just go into terminal and type:
-su (enter)
-seeder (enter)
(The apk from OP does not work for every phone, but this init.d method will work as long as your phone supports init.d...)
My opinion:
-my gallery pictures loading "instantly". wtf!
-browser loading faster
-Maps loading much faster
-settings menu scrolling smoothly.
Working great here

if you do it the APK way make sure to exit the app using the home button not the back button because pressing back will turn it off
So is this basically just holding a partial wakelock forever and therefore increasing performance and killing battery life? Do we really know what's being accomplished here?

Everything I have seen indicates that the smoothness is coming from the CPU being held out of sleep. My "proof" is a user of the original Note saying it fixed his home button wake lag. That ONLY disappears when the phone ain't sleeping...
I don't think there are any major performance gains to be had from the ACTUAL fix, maybe as a side effect of holding the CPU up - but you can adjust the governor to do that.

That's a pretty ridiculous solution.
Create a symbolic link for /dev/random pointing to /dev/urandom. Done.
So, as some one earlier said, this is just keeping our phones awake all the time right?
If so, thats bad, isnt it ?

exactly. just trading battery life for less stutter. or in our case, just killing our own batteries since the gn2 has pretty much no stutter anyways.

Hmmm so it is almost same as lowering cpu up threshold. Hmmm for low end phones ofc there will be performance boost for note 2 no difference while we have good software+hardware
so i test it my self and i don't see any difference :silly::silly:

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

and

Yeah you're right this tweak works great for me, I have about 40 more mb of RAM all the time and everything feels like its preloaded
This look great... I hope someone can make this as a software for easy application...
Hurro Avetny, do you find the i9100 running low on RAM a lot? Seems to not offer a lot above memory functions, think theres much mileage in this for SGS2 vs under (memory) equipped units like SGS1?

WHy is it that CM does not incorporate this into their roms ?
yup, an CWM version will be nice
I will give it a go tomorrow, very sleepy....
thanks for sharing
Love.
but is there a way to integrate it into a ROM.
Like as a Package!
need to find a Way!
EDIT 1: yup figured Out how to, will be there pre installed in my ROM. yupee!
EDIT 2: Custom ROMs will now get the /data/userinit.sh and /data/99SuperCharger.sh files.
Just change the variable (rcpath=) on line 116 to the path of your *rc file!
That's it and you can Cook it into your ROM's.
Hope it helps all you ROM Devs.

Not sure I agree with that. Retaining data in memory will result in better performance than unloading and reloading the same data back in again from relatively slow storage.
Trying the SuperCharger script using the "Multitasking" preset. I don't want my apps terminated just to get free RAM, then having to reload the same apps again.
Not sure if this will result in any actual performance improvements on a SGSII, given that they're already so fast, but if it can prevent Launcher screen reloads, then I'll be happy.

Hi all I just purchased a new N7 16gb I updated it to 4.2.1 prior to making the purchase I did my research on here other forums including YouTube. And I'm not to happy with the outcome as far as the speed of the N7 others that I've seen out there as I mentioned seem faster and the videos I watched were stock N7`s running 4.2.1 I even did a quadrant test and scored a 3616 or so. I do understand that is a rough estimate but I was expecting a higher avg then that for a quad core T3. Any help or insight is appreciated

root it, install a custom kernel that allows for increased performance and faster cpu speeds(and other tweaks). if youre looking for increased performance out of the stock kernel, you wont find it. also, even with stock(rooted) you need to bench correctly. you want to set your cpu speeds as the highest speed for hi and low speed. that way it doesnt scale cpu speeds(if you let it scale, youre actually testing a lower speed since quadrant doesnt max out the nexus 7). disabling fsync also helps immensely.

The answer to your question is actually pretty simple. Just open the Google current app, go to menu (the 3 dots on the top right corner), go to Settings and untick the enable background sync, finally reboot your n7. I found the solution and applied it myself. I now have absolutely nothing to complain about my tablet

Hi!
What do you in fact disable when disabling background sync? Is it email notification and such? Because then it is not worth it I think.
You're preventing Google Currents from downloading new articles and whatnot while it's not the active app. If you, like 99.99999% of the world, don't use Currents, there's no reason not to disable it.
I agree.

Lest make this a post to improve our LG G2 devices.
I will let my phone be the ginny pig since I see my phone as such a disappointment.
Whatever tips you post. I will do on my phone and then post an update of the results after I done the update.
This way, others can see where the phone improves most and can decide for themselves what changes they should make on theirs to have the results they want.

Make sure you reboot to clear all background processes and let the phone sit truly idle for half an hour or so to make sure it's not going to throttle from heat. Unplug, too. Charging generates heat.

Ok, first I'll let it charge to 100% then I'll reboot it and erase all notifactions. Then let it sit for an hour while I eat dinner. And come back to run the benchmark and update the post. We'll see how much of a difference that makes.
Don't be afraid to run it a couple times back to back. Not sure how true it is anymore, but years ago when 2.0(?) debuted JIT and dalvik cache, people were saying that results improved as the cache and kernel "learned" or improved pre-fetch or some-such. I'm not that deep into it to confirm or deny but I just ran AnTuTu four times back to back and each run improved over the previous. 28k, 30k, 32k, and finally 34k...so the same still seems to hold true.
I let it charge to full capacity through the Battery Doctor app by KS Mobile. I like that app for 2 reasons. 1, cause it tells you how much time til it finishes charging. And 2 cause it has easy access to the battery saving options.
So anyway... after I charged it. I restarted it. Then let it sit for an hour. I ate dinner and started watching a movie.
I restarted it again. Acknowledged and deleted all notifications. Restarted again. And then ran the Antutu Benchmark app again. Then I got the results in this picture.
SEE FIRST ATTATCHMENT
and as I'm typing, I'm running it again.. and the RESULTS BECAME LOWER
SEE SECOND ATTATCHMENT
now... my question is.. how do we keep the G2 running at max performance at all times? not just right after a restart? cause logically after a restart other apps will start running in the background.. even without being in the notifications tray.. is there an app that blocks other apps from running in the background, and only lets them run if you open the app yourself? or is that an idea for someone to create an app like that.. instead of a simple task killer app.. an app that prevents other apps from starting up in the background.. get it ?

So I figure there has to be a way to push my phone to its max potential.. I want to know how to do it.
Its only logical to want to get the most out of a phone no matter which one it is.. we all pay a substantial price for them, right?
Gotcha. Wait until the developer kernels start popping up. Combine with AOSP and profit. I have no doubt that all the LG overhear, even without the obvious bloatware, is holding us back significantly.
I'm benching above the N3 and just running Malladus one.one.seven...
I dont get it.. I just woke up.. tossed aside the notifications.. and ran the benchmark.. to my surprise its showing over 34k..

I have bought the premium of this long ago, for my old/other devices.
Please read up on which kind of LAG it should help.
LG G2 is not lagging or rather when its lagging, its due to the throttling or something else.
TRIM won't help. Won't do anything for you. Kinda would like that the placebo effect goes away which some ppl experience on other devices. Not saying it might not help. But mostly it's really just placebo. Lets say 1 in 100 000 specific devices under specific circumstances it helps... and not LG G2 .
(Not yet)
Android is out for more years, lets say after 5 they introduce TRIM and now every device and every one needs it? Wanna tell me that every device was lagging the past years? < @op This was not for you, but for the defenders that will pop out saying that TRIM is the almighty savior of high end devices.
You do not need TRIM. (Again not yet)
I used it on my Nexus 7, prior to 4.3. Works good on some devices that have poor i/o over time. I doubt it makes a difference on the G2, we'll most likely have a 4.3 or higher rom with built in trim before you would see any issues with i/o lag.
I must say. Installed lagfix on g2, everything being indeed smoother and seems as much less sttutering and scroll lags.
well the fixes you seek are not really there, android itself laggs due to the way it is designed.

From my understanding of trim , you should still see a performance gain no matter what. This gain becomes more apparent as you use and fill your a device.

What I said and meant is that in 99 % cases TRIM is only a placebo.
And in case of LG G2 it's 99.99999% placebo.
Look 5 years phones were fine without TRIM. Now suddenly it's a magic cure?( For a problem that 99% of devices didn't have?)
Even Google knows it's not like that at all. If it was, don't worry there would be more advertising behind it.
Stop reading into the technical details of it. As I said not my first device. Bought the premium one long ago.
Real life usage different from paper.

No root required. I was able to install app from the Playstore, disregard that it mentions a Samsung phone. This website pretty much advises what settings to use and all.
Works in the meanwhile until an official fix is released for all of us G4 owners. Night and day difference.
You don't have to use the specific settings in the website, I've found some values myself that have worked well but it's a good starting point.
1.) Enable parameters
2.) Don't forget within the app to 'start service on boot'
3.) Reboot phone and enjoy a better phone experience

I'll try again...
I tried all kinds of configurations, I notice no improvement.
I tried this app before and found no difference either. What did seem to help though (at least in my experience) was I just opted to do a full system reset, since then I have had no lag or missed touches or anything negative with my device.
I saw the title seen than seen there was no thanks to the OP... I won't even bother trying

This app actually made a big difference for me. Thank you OP. I'd been thinking of a factory reset as I've seen a few people mention that clearing the issue but I'm good for now.
As you said, night and day difference.

How did you go about backing up app data (if you did). I'm kinda lost without Titanium Backup in my toolbox

It might not work for everyone, unfortunately there are many that see threads like this and never post that it works.
I've done so myself once or twice in the past.
Can say for a fact that it's helped another user above and that's why I post in the 1st place.
All I can say about that is that some units may be too messed up to even fix, for them I would recommend swapping out for another device before the 14 day return is up. I noticed a huge difference in screen response taps and swipes.
I'll post my specific settings once I turn on my device, I installed my Skinomi Tech Glass today and want it to settle before I use it again.

I'll be interested to see what settings you find to be optimal. I didn't change anything. I just started the app, set to start on boot, restarted my phone and the response is phenomenal.
I'm willing to tweak some but I'm liking it as is.

Why does this app need access to photos on my sdcard? No thanks, I'll pass.

As far as backing up my app date, with US Cellular I have a stock bloat-app that allows me to back up stuff.
Only thing I may suggest for you is to get one of the Non-Root App2SD apps, install all your apps to the SD card and then reset the phone without having to touch your apps.
I tried this when it was first suggested by someone and didn't really notice any difference.
I was using it on 10a firmware and did notice an improvement.
Since updating to 10c, I don't use this app anymore, as I do not have any issues with missed taps.

I have heard others say this as well, I do not want to update though as I do not know what all is hidden within the update, and I do not want to risk blocking any exploits or anything like that.
I'm already rooted & unlocked as I have h815 GB version.
I flashed 10c from autoprime and runs nice.
Not sure if updating from lg will block any exploits?
Might be worth asking one of the devs??
This app has not been updated since 2012. Not sure if it works either, saw no difference with or without it. Placebo maybe?
