I recently got my Nexus 7, rooted it, but I'm not a Android PRO, so I have few questions:
1. How many RAM are widgets taking? For example, bookmarks widget, from Google Chrome.
2. How many RAM I need to have free for to do every task fast? Currently I have only 419mb, without any apps running (expect AccuWeather, Battery Widget, TouchPal, Maps, Powe Toggles).
3. Any way to stop apps running in background ( without any task killer)? I know that some apps need to do that, but how to stop games like "Pou"? It's constantly running!
Sorry for my bad English
1 - We can't tell you that, it depends on how many Widgets you use. The only way to really find out is check your RAM usage, add a widget and Check again, the difference is the amount of RAM that widget is taking.
2 - Not much RAM is used for each app, and when you minimise an App it is paused, effectivly not running, and then unpauses when you go into your app again.
3 - Easiest way is to go "Settings -> Apps -> Find "Pou" -> Force Close
These are very strange questions to be asking

Thanks, now I have 1 more question.
I want full tablet UI, but when I change dpi (or.ppi, i forgot) in build.prop, nothing happens, but icons are smaller and everything is totally strange :\
Yeah DPI isn't a very good alternate to getting a Tablet UI, used to be but not the best.
169 is the DPI I'm sure was used for Tablet UI.
Anyway, EASIEST I can suggest you try, which I personally use and love it.
Download: Apex Launcher from Google Play
Go to Apex settings, and look for "Tablet UI"
Thats sorted me out since I had the tab!
If you really want a great Tablet UI I'd suggest looking at - Paranoid Android ROM, however you need to be rooted and install it as its a custom ROM.

I changed it to 169, and again nothing . It's because of 4.2.2 update, Google removed that. Thanks, anyway.

Hey,
I was using swiftdroid last two days and it appears to be killing all apps almost as soon as I quit it. I checked with Advanced Task Killer and it appears swiftdroid is trying to keep at least 45MB free even after I enabled 32MB swap with built-in VRAM.
This is very annoying. It keeps quitting facebook chat and IMO chat as soon as I switch to another app. I'm aware GT540 has very low memory but the thing is in stock, I didn't have any problem even though I didn't have VRAM/swap. I usually get around 25MB RAM free all the time and most apps stay in memory. I'm usually like able to launch the IM app, facebook app and still be able to use the browser or file expert or messaging app.
So, is there's a workaround? It's really annoying when it keeps quitting the IM app just like that!
Sorry for saying it's annoying. I know we get this for free and I shouldn't be complaining at all. It's just that it pissed me by quitting IM app, the only app I want to stay in the memory.
What version of Swiftdroid are you using
The latest one (M5), has improved RAM management a lot
And comes with better battery life, too
I got the same thing. Always 40-45mb free and apps being killed quickly. I'm on M5. Someone said that Joestone's AOSP is better in this aspect, but I didn't test it yet.
Mitalca:
I'm on M4. I downloaded M5 only today. I don't think it lacks good RAM management. It's just that its memory management settings have been tweaked to keep maximum possible amount of RAM free so that any new app will launch faster. Am sure there must be a switch to change it.
EazyLuke:
I don't really have any problems with stock 2.1. I checked out Joe's AOSP and swiftdroid. The only real advantage apart from speed is voice input. In Joe's AOSP, I couldn't get voice to work. In swiftdroid, it worked.
that's what I meant with RAM management
Maurik changed the settings on M5
mhoangtr said:
In M4 rom, lowmemorykiller setting is 6,8,16,20,32,40 MB so apps killed too fast.
If you want to keep apps longer, try set to 6,8,16,20,22,24 MB (this is default value of android).

But I don't know how can you change that setting in M4

@Mitalca: That's the whole purpose of the post. I couldn't find the option where I can change 6,8,16,20,32,40 MB to 6,8,16,20,22,24 MB.
How do I change it?
You can change these values with e.g. this application https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lim.android.automemman&feature=search_result
I installed this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rs.autokiller
It does the same thing.
I set the values to 6-8-12-18-20-20. Now I'll have to see if that brings an improvement.
EDIT: Tested it for a few minutes. And it seems to be an awesome improvement! I can switch from Facebook, Twitter and Browser, and everything is kept in memory, meaning these apps don't have to reload everything!
And it seems to be stable. I also use some of the "advanced system tweaks settings".
Thanks you guys.
XDA memebers. Useful as ever.
I'm gonna try both the apps and keep the app with slicker interface.
M5 isn't working.

I found this problematic, too.
I installed M5 yesterday. Everything is great except this (and I don't like oversensitive accelerometer, but it's not urgent problem ).
Last night I listened Music player, and surfed via Miren. After two opened tabs, Music player shut down . After four opened tabs, phone rebooted. Factory widgets' widgets are useless with this agressive RAM menagment.

To bad - it want access to too much permissions.
Access to too much permissions? Use LBE Privacy Guard!
What permissions?
And by the way, I wrote a PM to Mur4ik and asked him to try this app out. Maybe he'll change the numbers for RAM-management in his next release if he thinks it's an improvement.

There are plenty of custom ROMs that use Mur4ik's config. It boils down to personal preference. Do you want newer apps to launch really fast or do you want certain apps to stay in memory all the time?
Multi-taskers would prefer to have all apps in memory while people who like doing one thing at a time or who use phone for gaming mainly would prefer Mur4ik's config which launches apps faster.
The best thing for Mur4ik is to include an option to change the memory management config depending on user.
After changing the numbers my apps don't really seem to open slower.
In my opinion Mur4ik could lower the numbers a little bit, to allow better multitasking, but still let new apps open fast (just my personal opinion).
But I don't say he HAS TO do that, just a suggestion, if he doesn't like it it isn't a problem at all, because everyone can simply adjust the numbers easily .
That's true. xD
If I were to suggest, I'd suggest to add the option to change these settings. Apps opening fast depends on what individual apps are in the memory and what new app you are opening.
For example, if you open Angry Birds while your memory is at 16MB, you certainly can't expect it to open fast.
On the other hand, if you open messaging app while memory is at 16MB, it certainly will open faster.
But, I really disliked the apps Swiftdroid had in the latest release. I had to get rid of the whole GO suit with Uninstaller for Root.

Download Go launcher EX from the market
thanks a lot!!!
There are other home applications existent in the Android Market. But I use GO Launcher Ex due to it being flexible
Any launcher will do this for you.
Speaking of launchers... which one do you rec. ?
Is it GO the best option with minimum usage of memory, etc... ?

all launchers mostly use about 7-15mb of ram!
I choose GO because it offers you more control, and a couple of extra functions, like uninstalling apps through the app drawer, a recent app tab, a task killer tab, and a decent amount of effects, and in my opinion it runs smoother than other launchers.
LauncherPro Plus, fast and smooth... use 6-8MB of ram.
Hello, I just installed the stock ICS on my Xoom, and I'm disapointed ...
As everybody was saying "the Xoom is now a whole new device", I was expecting so ...
There are good points with ICS :
- new functionalities like icons directories.
- gpu acceleration for a few 2D applications.
- a few websites are now smoother.
- typing texts in forums is now fast.
- a lot more available memory : around 512Mb instead of 400Mb in 3.2.1. EDIT : since a reboot of my Xoom, the available memory dropped down to 360Mb !!!
But I was expecting a lot more fluidity, smoothness, from the 2D applications of Android.
- the new market is more laggy than the one of honeycomb 3.2.1.
- some web pages are smoother now, but some other are slower !!!! XDA for exemple lags more than in 3.2.1 !!!
- the 2D GPU acceleration does not work for all applications : even when "force 2d acceleration" is selected, some applications become smooth, some other don't, even when they are the same kind of applications.
- stock web browser crashes more than in 3.2.1.
- on stock browser search string on some forums don't work anymore (try on XDA !), same problem with some dropdown menus which let the web page disappearing ...
- the new kill apps system in ICS does not really kill all apps. So we still need an app killer.
- the portrait mode is still laggy compared to the landscape mode.
- the available memory, when the Xoom has just been rebooted, vary between 510Mb and 360Mb ... !!! With absolutly no change in my Xoom configuration.
- When you force OFF the screen rotation in landscape mode, if you lock the Xoom and put it in portrait position, when you unlock the Xoom the display will be in portrait mode, and right after the Xoom will be unlocked it will go back to Landscape mode. This bug didn't exist in Honeycomb.
- the cursor to select text to copy seems more difficult to position than in Honeycomb.
- if you kill the stock browser with an app killer, when you relaunch the browser it will then open the last visited website, which is as expected. But if you kill the browser with the Android task killer, then the browser (when relaunched) will display nothing.
So I don't feel like I have a new device, some things are better, some worse.
As I am very concerned by the Android fluidity, ICS is a big step forward, but there are still some more steps to do, and I hope we will be able, one day, to see Android as fluid as an ipad on our Xoom ... But I guess I should stop dreaming.
Maybe you should trying running one of those custom ROMS and see if you see and
better performance or features..it's worth a shot

No.
Most of the stuttering is caused by apps which are written by developers who don't really understand Android,
Seriously.
Pay attention to which apps aren't responsive. Look at memory use, wake locks, watch for unnecessary services and background threads.
Eliminate apps one-by-one until stuttering in menus and the desktop stops. Don't run live wallpapers.
Factory reset. System settings from prior Android revisions can cause problems.
I have fixed many of my friends' Android devices when they blamed the device or OS for lag.
Stock 4.04 is quite responsive and fluid. If yours isn't, it's probably the apps you've installed or settings conflicts.
Change animation settings under development to none or at least down to .5 from 1.0.
Use a third party launcher and third party browser if unsatisfied with stock. We have choice...we can use it.
My Xoom is as smooth as butter...no lag or stutter at all.
I always choose the apps to install according to their fluidity. I know some apps are badly developped. I also have no apps running in background (that's why I choosed the stock ICS), always killing running apps before running a new one. I also don't use animated background.
I do my best to let my Xoom run as smooth as possible.

Have you changed your animation settings under Developer Options (in Settings Menu, toward the bottom) If you don't need animations, then change the settings to "none" it will make a difference.

Thanks for these advises but the problem for me is not the speed of the device but its fluidity. So changing the animation setting did change the speed of the way the menu are displayed but not the fluidity of the animations.
About the fird party launcher, I think it will not make it run smoother as it will run in the background and occupy memory.

Why, I don't know, but I have always found increased smoothness from launcher like ADWEX. As they say, "your mileage may vary." The configuration in my signature represents what I think is probably the best, smoothest and fastest combination I can find. I also have tons of apps and a pretty elaborate theme and still my Xoom is butter-smooth. It can be done.

Why kill the apps before running a new one? If you are choosing apps based on how well programmed they are that seems completely unnecessary.

Hi,
You didn't mention what apps you are running.
I'm running 4.0.4 stock rooted - and no issues in general. It got very laggy once after running for a week, but a reboot fixed it. Like any OS, very complex and not perfect - reboot once in a while.
I honestly don't find ICS to be very much different than HC (nor did I expect it to be). (ICS is what google wanted HC to be but ran out of time, so released HC)

Adw auncher makes for a much smoother home screen experiance than stock. Stock struggles with more than a couple of Widgets. Its a diferant experiance, but definatly faster.

That's it. I'm sorry if your goal was not to be agressive.
You know, there are lots of fixes for any problems this device had at one time, but many require rooting and installing custom roms/kernels/recoveries and certain non-stock apps. I realize that some people like staying stock as much as possible...I don't. I want to get root immediately and start customizing. That's just me. Some people don't like to eat meat...I do. Some people can't imagine not driving everywhere...I've never owned a car. We're all different. But sometimes you just have to understand that your desire to stay all stock comes at a price. Lag exists. That's why custom roms exist...to eliminate lag, among other brilliant things.

[Rooting]
I regret not rooting right away. I don't want a custom rom because I hate wiping, but I do want root access. What's the easiest way to back everything up and restore after root for a minimum of headache?
[Memory Management]
I gave my iPad to a family member because I wanted to keep the Nexus 10, and I used both with the browser open and on "reader" mode often. For some reason it seems to me the iPad kept my current page in memory for much longer. I often read long pages of lots of text so it's annoying to open firefox or dolphin again and have the tablet re-load my page and start me at the top again. This usually doesn't happen if I've only gone and used 1 or 2 other apps, usually it opens to the middle of the page where I had it before, but if I do too many other apps when I switch back to my browser it has to reload my page. Am I correct in assuming this is a memory management problem? Best fix? (and I'm assuming it'll be easier to fix with root?)
[Launchers]
I love the features of Apex/Nova launchers, but both of them are resizing my icons to a standard size. This is most obvious with the "KickassTorrents" app icon, but since not everyone will have that, go look at the Pulse app icon in both vanilla launcher, as compared to Apex or Nova. You will notice the default launcher leaves a ring of transparent space around the icon, whereas Nova/Apex seem to ignore the transparent space and stretch the icon to fill up the whole of a grid box. Of course on such a high ppi screen that looks awful. Any known fix?

I usually don't mind it, but you may want to find a browser that saves the page (offline mode) or install an app like Advanced Task Killer (I usually don't recommend, but in your case I think it may do the job) and then change the settings to don't kill your browser . Good luck with this!! If I find more info I'll give to you.

Maybe you can find something in settings, I use NOVA in my Xoom and S4, however in Nexus 10 I still didn't configure enough to be good for me, so I'm still stick with the normal launcher. AFAIK there are settings in NOVA to change the icon size, I edited mine on Xoom and looked really good, I'll find it and send a new reply for you later.
Hope this covers up enough for you .

Alright so besides all the guides we have about using scripts like supercharger and all those stats stuff/scripts that we all have our preferences, i think most of us underestimage the power of customisation that our Willy is comfortable or not with.
The steps that i take on every rom i install so far are simple, and i managed to make even the new CM10 rom a little bit faster, (talking about CM9 speeds on CM10 ROM)
1. First of all i use Launcher Pro. I know it doesnt look as good as holo or any other ICS launcher, but it speeds up the whole device a lot. The main reason I use it is in the second step tho.
2. Download LCD Density Modder. This app will help you increase your screen resolution (also known as resolution hack). Our device uses 120 by default. I recommend 110, 105 if you really want that kick.
What does this do? -- It's simple. Ever saw a friend with say... a samsung galaxy S2? When that guy opens the app draw, half of his installed apps are on that display. By increasing your resolution this helps you get a similar result, by only sacrificing a little bit of the font. Going under 105 will make the font too small, but if you're fine with that, go ahead.
THE CATCH!!!!!
Do NOT use LCD Density Modder if you have Holo Launcher AT ALL. Holo launcher will crash as soon as you will change the density, and after the reboot it will end up in an open/crash loop. Feel free to try LCD Density with any other launcher, but when you do so, DON'T set a default launcher, so when u press your Home button, you can choose Launcher Pro(you should install it as a failsafe measure).
If you used LCD Density Modder with holo launcher anyway then consider yourself slapped by me. Now you have to reinstall your ROM, because there's no other way you get another launcher without Holo working (at least not that I'm aware of).
3. Assuming you singed in on your google account, downloaded any app you want and finished sync'ing your phone with the account data, i strongly recommend disabling background data (Menu->Settings->Accounts & sync settings). Whenever you want to use the Play Store, you enable it. Or perhaps after you've added new contacts and similar situations. Otherwise, it will just drain your battery and slow down your device.
4. This is something that I rarely do because after finishing the steps above, i feel the phone is good to go. Unused Widgets. Remove any widgets you don't use or need.
Any working recommendations will be added giving credits to those that came up with it. Also please post only tweaks and tricks recommendations unrelated to scripts/services or stuff like that, since i feel this should be a noobs(like me) comfortable thread.
The print screen is made with the 100 setting , 20 lower than the default. If the font bothers you, go for 110.
Tips hmmm, i dnt know why we need going for ics or jb then searching tips to fast to speed up, anyhow below are the tips:
A) Stay to ginger bread cm7 basesd roms. cm7 takes small system space using mtd so more internal memory for cache can be on internal memory.

B) check running sevices see what u not need turn them off, have app "autostart" that is vey helpful.
C) root the htc, freeze the system apps u may not need, i have freezed news n weather, cm stats, dsp manager, fota, cm update notification, and play sevices too.
D) and mods are must v6supercharge, and crossbreeder.
I m sure we all like to enjoy a smooth htc wildfire.
Why off background data as alot of emails will be missed, when the phone is already fast.

Alright so besides all the guides we have about using scripts like supercharger and all those stats stuff/scripts that we all have our preferences, i think most of us underestimage the power of customisation that our Willy is comfortable or not with.
The steps that i take on every rom i install so far are simple, and i managed to make even the new CM10 rom a little bit faster, (talking about CM9 speeds on CM10 ROM)
1. First of all i use Launcher Pro. I know it doesnt look as good as holo or any other ICS launcher, but it speeds up the whole device a lot. The main reason I use it is in the second step tho.
2. Download LCD Density Modder. This app will help you increase your screen resolution (also known as resolution hack). Our device uses 120 by default. I recommend 110, 105 if you really want that kick.
What does this do? -- It's simple. Ever saw a friend with say... a samsung galaxy S2? When that guy opens the app draw, half of his installed apps are on that display. By increasing your resolution this helps you get a similar result, by only sacrificing a little bit of the font. Going under 105 will make the font too small, but if you're fine with that, go ahead.
THE CATCH!!!!!
Do NOT use LCD Density Modder if you have Holo Launcher AT ALL. Holo launcher will crash as soon as you will change the density, and after the reboot it will end up in an open/crash loop. Feel free to try LCD Density with any other launcher, but when you do so, DON'T set a default launcher, so when u press your Home button, you can choose Launcher Pro(you should install it as a failsafe measure).
If you used LCD Density Modder with holo launcher anyway then consider yourself slapped by me. Now you have to reinstall your ROM, because there's no other way you get another launcher without Holo working (at least not that I'm aware of).
3. Assuming you singed in on your google account, downloaded any app you want and finished sync'ing your phone with the account data, i strongly recommend disabling background data (Menu->Settings->Accounts & sync settings). Whenever you want to use the Play Store, you enable it. Or perhaps after you've added new contacts and similar situations. Otherwise, it will just drain your battery and slow down your device.
4. This is something that I rarely do because after finishing the steps above, i feel the phone is good to go. Unused Widgets. Remove any widgets you don't use or need.
Any working recommendations will be added giving credits to those that came up with it. Also please post only tweaks and tricks recommendations unrelated to scripts/services or stuff like that, since i feel this should be a noobs(like me) comfortable thread.
The print screen is made with the 100 setting , 20 lower than the default. If the font bothers you, go for 110.
