[GUIDE]FIX:Slow performance of grand after 4.2 update - Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General

Whats up guys.This is Nikhil Singh from xda developers and today I am going to guide you on how to increase performance of grand after 4.2.2 jelly bean update. I have noted that after 4.2 update my grand hangs regulalry on opening gallery or doing other stuff for sometime.(The performance from device is terrible)
So here you go
1.Switch off your device
2.Boot into recovery by pressing Power button+Home button+Volume up button
3.Navigate to wipe cache partition and press power button(on some devices it will show Error but dont worry)
4.Device will reboot automatically
Thats it now your galaxy grand is smooth and lag free test it by opening the gallery app
Some more tips are to turn off power saving mode
Click thanks button if it helped

HI, would this way going to erase all data in the phone? Should i back up my data before i try it?

Wiping cache doesn't erase your data!

Hey, i'm new to this community. However i've followed your guide to perform wipe cache but issue still occur, really frustrated using this as spare phone.

Be patient. I own 4 Galaxy devices, and the Grand is not as powerful as my S4, but its easily my prefered device. It takes time to "mod" or customize your phone to you likings, but I promise it's a great device.
Here are some of my personal pointers:
- Factory ROMS are heavy, boated and somewhat slow. You can tweak it so it can be smoother, but a CM-based custom ROM is the way to go. If you like Touchwiz, here are some tips: - Root, use Titanium Backup to 'freeze' apps and widgets you wont use. Don't want to root, then in Applications Manager, Stop the apps.
- CyanogenMod ROMS: Because I use Dual Sim, I prefer CosmicCM, but the CM11 Unofficial is a great ROM too. These ROM are the pure android experience and are high tweakable. Also since this is 4.4.4 (Kit Kat), it uses much less resources than Jelly Bean (4.2.2).
A Must for any ROM:
Use Android Tweaker 2 and switch on all "Performance" settings except Hardware Acceleration, slide all sliders to Right. The other tweaks in this app, are up to your needs, Image tweaks are also important if you need it.
Greenify, hibernate all apps that will stay running in the background, you choose when to have them up and running.
SetCPU: I create a Profile, When my screen is OFF, I have my CPU at minimum (312mhz) in order to save battery.
-
I promise with these three apps and tweaks you will be on your way to a greater device. Oh, also, look into replacing your Launcher, want to keep a TouchWiz feel, look into S Launcher (S5), or Google Launcher.
Regards,
Paul

Thanks paul for you response with advice, i'll try to use custom rom to get better performance. :good:

Thank you, indeed increased performance after I wiped cache

[UPDATED 17/01/2011] [Collection] The Perfect Hero Setup (New Market/Keyboard/Kernel)

Thread updated 17/01/2011 (d/m/y) to include FlyKernel 12a and a download for AngryBirds 1.3.5 for those who needed it. thread has also been cleaned up and old content removed. Instructions have been updated accordingly. Please let me know of any bugs or tweaks that need to be made.
Install for fully working Android Gingerbread Keyboard and newest Market at the bottom of this post!
This is a collection of packages that can be found around these forums that I believe amounts to the perfect Hero Setup. I am NOT a developer (although I have been known to make some themes and do some graphics work in the past), and I do not claim to have created any of this content. Instead what I am bringing you is a kind of gathering of the choicest picks from the Hero development forums, as well as the CyanogenMod 6.1 Final base. Most of this post is entirely optional, so this will allow you to build your own device, based on your preferences. Leave out things you feel you do not want, or add in extra steps if you feel you need them. Either way this will allow granular control of your Hero, for you to set it up just the way you want.
If nothing else this should be treated as a learning experience, if however you are unsure, and the post below looks a little daunting, you should consider flashing Floyo (created by the very talented erasmux) which is a complete packaged ROM. A lot of the content here has been taken from offerings that he has made available.
I take no responsibility for you destroying your phone. But for ME, my Hero is now the fastest it has ever been, with much better signal (and hugely faster browsing speed) with a theme I really love. So, presuming your Hero is already rooted, do a FULL wipe of everything, and then:
1) Flash Cyanogen Mod 6.1 FINAL in recovery (no need to reboot yet).
2) Flash Cyanogen Google Apps Addon.
3) Reboot your phone, log in and go through the initial setup. Once this is completed, reboot into recovery again.
4) (UPDATED) Flash Flykernel 12a (HUGE thanks to erasmux, this kernel is amazing). The version linked here is the one I have found to work best with this particular Hero setup (352-576, as such this is not overclocked, but performs exceptionally on my hero and doesn't have the annoying wake up issue, info on how to rename the file to overclock the kernel can be found at the erasmux flykernal post if you wish to do so). NOTE: Do NOT use the "-noatime" switch as this caused reboot loops for me in CM6.1.
5) Flash this notifications fix (provided by erasmux) which should fix some slightly hinky notification issues (jogball etc). This should now not be required with the newest Cyanogen build, I will do more testing and completely remove this section if this is confirmed.
6) Boot phone and let it get to the homescreen.
7) Reboot into recovery for the final time.
8) Flash The Latest Radio from this thread.
9) Reboot the phone (this may take a while after the radio installation).
OPTIONAL SETTINGS!
10) If you like using the HTC_IME mod, you can install it by manually installing the Clicker and then THIS version of the HTC_IME mod created using the AMAZING theming tool provided by gIMpSTa. I have created a theme that suits the feel of this CM6.1 based ROM using his tool, and it is working perfectly on my phone.
11) Enable JIT by going in to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Performance Settings > TICK "Use JIT" - And then reboot your phone (You can turn this off if you have issues with it turned on). In the latest Cyanogen 6.1 FINAL JIT is working perfectly, so unlike with RC1, I would now recommend having this turned ON!.
12) If you have issues fixing GPS sats, or if GPS does not update correctly when using it to navigate etc then you can try flashing THIS FIX (GPS libraries taken from FroydVillain and provided by erasmux as a fix for his Floyo ROM). If you are having issues actually fixing satellites you can also try flashing either the Europe, US or Asia sat-packs which can help GPS lock speed in your continent (if everything is already fine, you might want to avoid flashing these). Personally, I DO NOT use GPS on my device, so I can't comment on how well any of this works, but erasmux really knows his stuff, so I'm sure it will work if you are having problems.
13) CM6.1 comes with the NEW (official) Apps2SD built-in. However, the app needs to support this method or it will not allow you to move the app to the SD card. For those of you that prefer to use the OLD STYLE Apps2SD you can download it and flash it separately to enable this feature on this build of CyanogenMod.
That's the main setup sorted. You MAY have an issue with the Market following the radio installation (I did). If this happens, follow the instructions in this thread, the first fix (clearing the data) worked for me.
OK! Now on to apps. There are a few apps that really are a must if you want your Hero to both look and feel smooth as silk. So head over to the market, and download the following:
1) LanucherPro (Cyanogen comes with ADW, but I MUCH prefer LauncherPro). I use the XTG mod created by signals23 which has much more attractive widgets (if you have purchased the LP-Plus edition (I strongly recommend you do). You can, of course, use ANY homescreen, but LP is definitely my choice for beauty and speed. I actually DELETED ADW using: adb shell - rm /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk once I had LauncherPro installed, so it was no longer on the phone at all.
2) Beautiful Widgets - You have to pay for this, but trust me, it is absolutely worth the small amount of money. Once you have it, you can install any clock theme you like, such as SwirlClock made by yours truly
3) SMS Popup. Seriously, this app is amazing. Go into the default messages app, and turn off notifications. then head into the SMS Popup settings, and go into additional settings, turn ON "Quick Reply" and turn OFF "Screen on for Popup".
3) Youlu Address Book. I no longer recommend DialerOne on the Hero, as I find it too slow, especially when using the T9 "Dialer Search" function to call contacts using the numeric keypad. I find Youlou to be much faster, with a nice interface with an easy to navigate tabbed UI.
4) Advanced Task Killer. Once installed, open it up, turn off the notification bar icon in settings, and add your most frequently used apps to the ignore list (so the killer always leaves them running for speedy access). I usually leave: Messaging, Email and DialerOne in the ignore list.
5) SyncMyPix. Lets you properly sync your facebook contacts pictures so that they show up in DialerOne and LauncherPro.
6) Facebook app, or, whatever
7) Photoshop Express. I only add this here because there is no way of uploading multiple images to Facebook using the standard "Gallery" app, but you can do this using Photoshop Express, pretty nice little app, but this feature makes it worth having.
8) THEME! If you want to change the stock theme from white to black, go to: Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User Interface > Tweaks Extras > Select a Theme and change your theme to STOCK_Black and then reboot your phone. This makes all of the theme a very nice gloss black effect WITHOUT having to flash a seperate theme ROM over Cyanogen (which is a much better way of doing things, as you are not replacing the newer .apk's with older, themed ones... Yes, I know the browser icon kinda sucks, but you can always download the nicer icon .png from here
9) Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Keyboard. If you want to install this keyboard, it will overwrite the existing Android 2.2.1 Keyboard (and currently there is no way of going back). The Gingerbread keyboard is FULLY FUNCTIONAL, this version now has working dictionary and autocorrect. You CAN still use the HTC_IME keyboard with this installed though, so if you hardly use the stock Android keyboard anyway, there shouldn't be much harm installing it and giving it a shot. HERE it is for those of you that just can't wait
10) The newest Android 2.2.6 Market. Flash in recovery, tested working great on my Hero, very lovely interface and nice and fast
11) (NEW) Angry Birds 1.3.5. for those of you who were wondering how I got angry Birds to run pretty well on the Hero, use this version rather than the latest one available on the market
DONE. Of course, you can modify this in any way you like, but after completing all of this you will have your own, pieced together ROM, without any strange extras or crap you don't really need. On top of this, you can head in to the ROM manager that comes with Cyanogen and install ClockworkMod recovery (if you are still using an older Amon-Ra or something), which is nice and easy.
Also, I'm not joking. It's fast... The screenshot below is with common apps (messages, emails, dialerone) running, and I still have 86mb of free memory. The battery life is fantastic, signal is great, call speed, wifi locking etc all seem faster than I have had them before. So, let me know your results (I have not tested GPS!).
And there yo go, your own freshy squeezed Hero, complete with all the trimmings. Baste lightly in your own choice of apps and serve.
Zeb
This post will be updated as newer packages are released.
</walloftext>
interesting, thanks. There's also an ADW-remover script on the Floyo page.
I didn't realise people were theming LauncherPro widgets to that extent, will have to investigate!
m8 you have done about 90% of the changes that i have put to my hero.
definitely is the perfect setup for me too.
Can I just flash this kernel over VR12 ? And do I have to flash radio if I flash new kernel? What radio really does? thanks
p.s. great work

If you are coming from VR12 you will have to do a FULL wipe of everything (nand, battery setting, dalvik etc) in recovery before flashing all of these packages. So make sure you have backed up everything you want to keep before starting! I have no idea what effect flashing this stuff over an existing ROM will have as I did it all from scratch with a blank phone.
The Radio is possibly the riskiest aspect of this setup, and you can choose to leave it out alltogether if you wish, but for me this made possibly the largest difference, as everything from connecting to Wifi, switching back to 3G/HSPDA is much faster. Signal is better, and small things like initialising the dialler (the time it takes from me choosing to call a contact, to it actually ringing) feels much speedier, so I personally do recommend it! You don't need to use this Radio to use Flykernel 11c, so feel free to leave it out if you wish.
Zeb
Edit: I just noticed, do you mean, can you use Flykernel on it's own with VR12 without any of the other stuff? Yes, I believe you can, check you the Flykernel thread for more information, but I think it works for most ROMs.

If you flash only the kernel, you don't need to do anything else - No wipe at all necessary. Updating the radio is not related to the update of the kernel but still recommended as usually it also improves the hero experience and if there are problems you can always go back
I just received my refurbished hero (the digitalizer was dead) and am trying your setup. So far everything on the setup side was fine though I had a random reboot after flashing the kernel.
I will update with my feelings on this setup, thx for the guide!
I like this post ... what are the advantages of elelinux or floyo over the standard CM 6.1 release though? I tend to go for one of those instead for some reason!

I believe that the authors of these releases make modifications to the kernel, as well as making theme changes, adding packages of their choice etc. Some distributions are modified more than others (and not ALL of them use Cyanogen as a base I believe). You'd have to look at the specifics of those other ROMS to see exactly what is different (sometimes it's small things, such as the way the jog-ball flashes or how the LED behaves, and sometimes it's bigger, like having hacked settings, or adding otehr keyboards like the HTC_IME mod (which Cyanogen doesn't have as standard, but I prefer the android keyboard anyways). You can always add these things in yourself later if you know how, which is what I have chosen to do using this setup. this way you have complete control over what is added to your phone.
Also, Flykernel, and the Radio mentioned here have serious performance benefits over other offerings as far as I am concerned. you COULD just flash those two over the ROM of your choice, but doing things the way I have mentioned above just gives you a larger level of granular control, if thats what you really want that is
Also, I have wanted to use Cyanogen as a base for a while to see how it was, but I found it very hard to find decent documentation on how to set it up correctly, that is why, once I worked it out, I decided to post the method I used here for other people to try.
Zeb
thanks for the quick reply I kinda like flashing and starting from scratch on a clean install and adding things bit by bit so I'm guna follow ur guide and set my hero up myself.... also thanks for pointing me in the direction of the alternate launcher pro mod ... looks pretty cool!

No problemo! Just as a side-note, the kernel that COMES with Cyanogen 6.1 seems good enough, but I had problems with waking the phone up (sometimes I had to push the power button 3 or 4 times to get to the unlock screen). This is a pretty standard issue with a lot of kernels where the minimum clock speed is a little too low and the phone doesn't quite rev up enough when waking up. So, if using CM6.1 as a base (as posted above) Flykernel is a must (using the clockspeeds I posted above), as it removes this issue entirely and boosts overall performance.
Zeb
agree for the configuration, is the best(for now )
however,instead of sms popup i use handcent sms, the application is very similar to the application of the iPhone, and has a built-in sms popup...try it!

Nice addition, thanks! I have used ChompSMS before, but I really like the messaging app in Android 2.2, so I prefer to stick with that and use SMS Popup to handle the quick reply (which is an awesome feature). Also, the theme I posted skins the SMSPopup notification screen to fit with the rest of the device, to it looks extra good and as though it was really all put together into a proper ROM package.
I haven't tried Handcent myself but I have heard good things about it, so yea, probably worth a try if you aren't keen on the stock SMS app!
Zeb
Thread moved to General.
thanks for this, very useful especially the sms popup thing
Hello to all and thank you for the great topics on whatever is needed to tweak the Hero to full potential. I would like to flash a new rom (from VR12). Should i flash CyanogenMod 6.1.0 RC1 or wait for a custom rom based on CM 6.1 like Floyo or Elelinux's ROM. What would you suggest?
HTC_ime simply does not work. every time i try to to start it it force closes. I followed instructions as i usually did every single time before. help?

Any chance you can add some of the settings you use, like cyanogen or spare parts settings? I followed your guide completely and its pretty fast but i think enabling JIT might help but im too afraid to try. Thank you

[how to] have a lighter and faster stock rom!!!

First of all, please allow me to express that this method is not taken from somewhere else or not required any expertise to implement. This is just based on to remove heavy TW applications, and find better replacements for them. Mainly, this is not a mod at all
I am sharing this method because it is tried by lots of people and they conveyed their appreciation for overall performance and battery life increase.
As a start, either Flash a fully Stock odexed Rom or flash a TW based Custom Rom.
Then root it, and flash a performance kernel. Preferably H.O.C Hello World Kernel v1.3.7b.
Make a Full Nandroid Backup including /preload partition. I bear no responsibility for any lost info or broken device. (Actually it is impossible to break the phone by implementing this method but who knows
Then install Titanium Backup. Backup all user and system apps.
These are all kind of prerequisites. There we start now
First thing to be done is to get rid of TW Launcher. IT is hell of a burden for whole system. Best replacement for me is Nova Launcher. You choose your own. After you settle with new launcher and rest assured that it is OK, freeze TW via TB. Thanks to this step we have gained more than 50 mb of RAM
Second thing is to get rid of is Gallery. Due to Facebook, Picasa, G+, etc. integration Gallery is always working background and pushes system very hard. Best and fastest replacement is stock Android/Google Camera and Gallery. Here is the link: http://db.tt/L1ip1Inp Flash it via Recovery. This will install system folder. You can find preload variations on the net.
After you install the zip, set video recording resolution to 480p. Otherwise it gets stuck. When you confirm that media scanner is completed and Camera is working including whole features, then you can freeze and/or delete stock gallery and camera apps.
The other wise thing to do to lighten the rom would be deleting some bloatware, actually all bloatwares . Start with ad apps, and continue with live wallpapers and live wallpaper chooser. After that, you can delete Samsung scloud agents. If you are not using them, it will be wise.
Other apps to be deleted could be FM Radio, Google Play Music, etc. The ones you are sure that you are not using. Actually to give a complete and proper list is unfortunately impossible. Cause it is dependent to tastes and choices. For example, I don’t use All Share and Group Play, so I even deleted them. On the other hand, you may be using them. So even if I tell you what I have deleted, it may not work for you.
You can also delete some widget apps like Favorite Apps, contacts, etc. They consume RAM. Get rid of them. If you are not using stock keyboard, then get rid of Samsung IME, swype. Also you can delete street view, double clock, digital clock, etc. You decide it. There are lists floating around in which you can find the app safe to remove.
Any app not essential for system can be deleted. If you are hesitant whether an app is obligatory for system working or not, then just freeze it So that you can defreeze it later on if you face any problems.
I would strongly advise you to get rid of Play Store, Hangout, Play Music, Play Services. If you need GTalk, here it is: http://db.tt/6NKHZMvV (Replace it with Hangout apk (don’t know the name) and set the permissions. If you cannot find a replacement for Play Market, try 1Mobile. It is free. No warez either. Afterwards you won’t need Play Services. System will be free of another heavy duty as well
Now, we set our Rom according to your taste and needs. System is a lot lighter now. It is time to implement some mods.
Search for Direct Injection tweak on xda. Flash it via CWM right away. Let the phone boot.
Then, install Seeder from xda also. Choose all 3 options, set it to moderate and Turn it ON. Reboot the phone again.
After, install No Frills CPU from 1Mobile (we deleted Play Store ). Set governor as HYPER, and scheduler as row. Max Freq: 1,2GHZ; Min:200 MHZ. Tick applying settings on boot. Then activate your Battery Saving Mode.
Finally, go to recovery. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache. Let the phone reboot and settle for 30 minutes.
Enjoy the fastest Rom ever
Please do not report battery life before 3 full cycle.
Regards.
Nice guide. Cause you did more than me. But for the launcher, if you don't use widgets and just want ultimate simplicity get Sicksky launcher https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sicksky its the next generation zeam launcher. For me nova launcher still takes up a lot of space due to its number of features. So after reading the whole thread I realised that stock android is the best.

Thanks for reply and advise.
Though I need weather, mail and calender widgets. I dont know if I can use thim with SickSky but if they dont work with it, then sorry
Actually my RAM usage is around 550-650. Itmeans there is a lot of room for Nova Even if you limit background processes via Developer Options by three or two, you will se a noticable RAM usage decrease. Try it now
But still, there may be lots of additions to this. So whoever comes up with a new advise is more than welcomed
This should be a contribution thread, I hope.
I actually love TW starter but will try other things you said.
nice guide though:good:
TW Launcher is the best, I tried almost all launchers but the satisfaction and ease I get with TWL none can provide even if its a little heavy on ram but really not that heavy to make your system laggy.
Overall your motto to keep the rom lite and fast looks good to me but removing Play Store is a crime don't do that. lol

I think rather than cut down every feature on your phone easier to pick up a nice Nokia 3600 or something like that going back to 20th. century.

I don't cut here, just replace.
I mean, there is nothing missing here for me as a smart phone. And whenever i need, lets say all share, i can defreeze and use it.
Nothing is missing on my end.

[Q] Touchwiz vs carbon

I am getting my s4 in a few days and I think I'll flash carbon rom straight away (to avoid resetting at a later stage) but what good features do I lose from touchwiz? Is there anything in particular I could miss?
How are game performances? Do certain games have compatibility problems with non OEM roms?
I have loads of games on my s2, is it okay to transfer DATA backup (or apk?) with titanium backup. I read this affects battery life due to old files or is that just for background apps?
How is battery life verses touchwiz rom?
If I flash 4.3 carbon now will I more than likely have to reset to update to 4.4, I read this happened. 4.2-4.3
Thanks

You lose every single gimmicky Touchwiz feature. Chances are you won't be only flashing one rom and I recommend you don't flash just one rom anyways. You can really get a feel for a rom until you actually flash it, so just flash whatever you want to try out until you find the right rom.
Battery life CAN be better, depending on which rom + kernel + kernel settings you choose to use, so just try different things until you find the right stuff for your kind of phone usage.
Also, you will most definitely be updating Roms. And if you like to keep up to date you will be wiping/flashing pretty often. Final advice, just flash different Roms and READ a lot so you don't screw something up.

Okay thanks very much
What's your opinion on using titanium backup from:
An old phone
Through rom updates
And across different roms?
Any recommendations in roms to try?
-would you recommend carbon?
-I want stability/support with games
-good standby battery (does underclock/volting actually help? )
-data speeds aren't a problem as they aren't great anyway here but do all roms still have wifi tethering? I use wifi when it works (rural Ireland :/)
-stable gps
-likely to receive 4.4
I know it's a lot to ask for
I also like loads of customisation So I think stripped down/google edition are out of the choice
I actually prefer the TW Rom as you gain:
Better camera app that makes full use of the closed drivers which AOSP doesn't apart from the GPE editions, you gain burst mode and other modes on TW,
IR full support bit patchy on AOSP roms,
TW features, such as AirView which I find useful quickly hover over emails or sms messages for a preview on the native apps, also works on the native music player,
Multi Window, useful as sometimes I'll have YouTube running while browsing or replying back to an email or message or such,
Stability, it should be stable compared to AOSP roms, use my phone as a daily driver so stability is important,
Native social network syncing if you make use of social networks which ties in with your events and calendars,
Etc, you'd need to explore TW and see if you make use of any of its features, AOSP is goods, but with xposed framework TW is more than bearable. Only thing I dislike is the theme of stock TW but I alternate between domination theme and Naxos and it gets rid of the stock colours, speaking of colours TW has native screen display options to change the display colour,
Adapt sound is also useful which boosts headphone sounds tailored to your headphones and also boosts call sound.

:/ disappointed about the camera. Is the CM camera much worse in quality?
What's your opinion on using titanium backup from:
An old phone
Through rom updates
And across different roms?
Do some games have compatibility problems with custom roms?

Yes, simply because they don't have access to the "closed" drivers implemented by Samsung.
I've done it in the past it shouldn't be a problem at all. Just update on your existing phone, you can then either upload it to the cloud or transfer the contents to your new phone and just restore everything. Should work without any hitches.
Xposed might fill my need of customisation
Have you come across anything like extsd2internalsd from s3 for s4?...Outside of directory bind?
GTA San andreas is a but big...

Yes I use foldermount. Allows to move things to the SD by creating symlinks. I've got my big games on the SD card by this method.
Xposed is excellent.

Okay ill try that thanks
Just one last question...
I understand that linking the Android folder is a bad idea because it breaks the path to data or obb.
So most games use obb, is it a good idea to just link the obb folder(only one mount) or should I do each game separately
I'm wondering which will work best with updating, I think obb?
I made a mess with directory bind before :0
Does folder mount allow mount at boot or is that just a bad idea(is this a constant process or does the phone just look for a file a get redirected)
Folder Mount is fine it boots at startup. I link the folder which has the data/obb file for each game. It works well and rarely has any issues with it. Free version is only limited to 3 mounts if more you'd have to pay for the full app but it's worth it and reviews are great.

i use autostarts for editing what happens when and if it happens at all (IE when you change network setting or plug phone to pc or install app there is processes triggered by these actions and more. this app allows you to control what runs and what gets forgotten {i disable all widgets that don't use etc})
also cpu tuner allows my gf phone to have multiple "triggers" for cpu IE 100% when screen on and active 80% when screen on but not active and down we go to 30% of cpu power while screen is off again 100% in case you get phonecall or plug in power source (all to be set to your own liking) and i stick with interactive governor but performance might be needed as i dont know what you want to run
IO found THIS thread
3 make full nandroid backup and flash it seems good but considering you on Cr3pt's ROM most of it will be there already so only minor increase in performance if any
4 Q: have you used it in last month or so ? A: no ? So freeze that app (better to stay away from system apps thats for advanced users[i still freeze all live wallpaper related stuff google talk, weather widget etc])
MAKE SURE TO DO FULL NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE USING ROM TOOLBOX(and stay away from boot animations/fonts)

*MY BOEFFLA SAMSUNG ONDEMAND PROFILE ON POST 2!!!!
Prologue & Intent
I have used AOSP/CM based roms exclusively since owning Android handsets, there are many benefits to this, especially on handsets that manufacturers simply abandon and leave in a poor state, this is thankfully not the case on our trusty Galaxy S3!
However, one of the bugbears of being in the alpha/beta test world that is CM/AOSP etc, its the many teething bugs that can hamper your usage of the device and to make things more irritating, the S3 has plenty of hardware revisions and proprietary software that makes obtaining a truly perfect experience tricky for the developer and the user to achieve!
For these reasons, like me, you might have decided to return to Samsung stock rom or one of the the excellent refined versions of stock by the likes of @_Sale_ or @qaraqumus (NeatRom 4.3 & QS 4.4.2 N7100 Port).
When you return, you are greeted by missing features, but also greeted with excellent camera, depending on your view more polished stock applications that you can keep or get rid of according to taste. Of course, the main thing you will start to experience is STABILITY and its quite addictive!
So this guide is work in progress, I only returned to stock based roms 3 weeks ago, I really wanted a good stable camera and I was to be fair a bit bored of being a nightlie flashaholic! If you have useful information that can be verified as useful then please contribute and lets help others realise that stock is not a dirty word!
I find that all of the missing features from customs roms can be replicated and there is no reason to think that you will be de-featured by returning to stock, nor are any of these things laborious or complicated!
How to get the missing features back that you loved in custom roms!
So you have gone back to stock!
a) You are enjoying the stability and you probably love having the stock camera back! Oooh, perfect burst mode and video record pause! yum yum!
b) You are sad, you miss quick panels, you miss pie, you hate the annoying battery alerts and camera low functionality on low battery power!
These are the sort of things I felt I could not live without, so with help from my XDA friends, I have found answers to all the stuff I wanted back! If there is is something missing that you want back, ask on this thread and lets see if we can discover more together!
1) How to get back functionality like no low battery alerts, using your camera properly when on low power, browser exit, system tweaks, battery icon location and style, quick settings layout, sound behavior, long back kill, etc etc!
1. Install Xposed Framework, go here and follow instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053
2. Install the most excellent apps you will ever install on your custom rom, Wanam Xposed, now you can configure everything I mention and more! : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.xposed&hl=en_GB
3.. Optional install Gravity Box for Xposed, for enabling a few features not included in the more compatible Wanam! Such as full screen lockscreen widgets and some additional hardware key functionality! Be careful ensure that you mirror any similar settings between Wanam and Gravity Box to ensure you have not cross fighting! [/url]
4. Boot Manager - Highlights what apps boot with your phone and allows you to stop them doing so!
5. Flat Style Bar Indicators - Lets you pick some nice looking wifi/mobile indicators for your status bar
6) Recent App Cleaner - Cleans out my recent apps when I turn my screen off and allows you to select apps that you want to keep open as well
7) Xad - Works like Adaway, stopping adverts where it can, its better than adaway as well
8) Xposed Additions - Allow excellent re-mapping of your hardware buttons!
9) XuiMod - Only use this change the system transitions when opening and closing apps, really nice
10) YouTube Adaway - Removes ads and suggestion pop ups in YouTube
11) Start feeling really happy about returning to stock!
How to stop battery drain!
Ok, this is annoying, but it is easy to sort out! there are some basics to observe and then some extra things you can do as well! Everything can be done safely and be reversable so you may experiment freely! Of course, it's a great idea to do a nandroid backup in case you make a mess of things, but if you follow this guide you will be fine and happy!
i) Get Greenify from the Playstore, run it, follow the instructions and limit the apps from waking your device up! On 4.3 roms I find it very useful, however on 4.4.2 I find it a lot less useful, in fact I don't use it at all on QS and I find that xposed Recent App Cleaner performs a better job. However for 4.3 users, stuff like Facebook etc will wake your phone up until the cows come home, but do not greenify apps that you want to be able to deliver on demand messages, like Whatsapp etc, obvious? UPDATE - If you are Pro user then use the Hibernate and Lock Feature to ensure your phone goes to sleep nicely!!!https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=en_GB
ii) Instal betterybatterystats, follow the xda thread to understand more about what you are doing and you will soon know which naughty apps that are waking up your device! You can then install apps such as Titanium Backup and freeze those apps, so that they no longer run and no longer drain your battery. If you decide you want an app back, then unfreeze it! It is as safe as that! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=en_GB
iii) Tryout Recent App Cleaner for ensuring apps a killed when your screen is off, seems to work better on QS/4.4.2 roms than greenify, read my post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58086117&postcount=112
Alternatively use RootAppDelete, i prefer this app, you simply click on system app, choose junior mode (pro mode will delete the app, which is fine if you know for sure you want an app gone forever! or at least untill you next flash an update rom back to your device, disabling is the safer and easier option!) which will then only freeze the apps (just like titanium) and you then tap the offending app and allow it to disable it. If you want one back, then tap the disabled icon and tap the app you want to bring back to life! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zsj.android.systemappremover&hl=en_GB
What system apps should I get rid of?
This depends on your usage and which revision of android/rom you are using, but for me all of the below were pointless battery draining ram using wastes of space or apps that have a better alternative that are more system resource friendly! If you are unsure, google search the name of the app and you will find results explaining what they were doing within the first page of results, i did!:
NOTE: Please make sure you research each app/service to ensure that your application will not be affected by freezing of any of the below, you can do this in google search or if you use Root App Delete you can press the info button to get an instant google search result!

AS I SAY, GOOGLE SEARCH NAME AND READ UP ABOUT WHAT THE APPS ABOVE DO BEFORE DISABLING THEM, BUT IF YOU WANT THEM BACK JUST UN-DISABLE! SO VERY SIMPLE!!!
Custom kernel sir?
Your stock kernel is good! Remember that!
The custom kernels are better if only if you have to have some of the features, like a desperate need to under or overclock your device, change led behavior and so fourth!
There are many to choose from and you will find them easily enough, I am sure you know of them! I use Boeffla and I have a stable gently overclocked profile you can get from my signature if you want an easy ride with great OC performance, stability and great battery results!
However, it's always best to stay on stock kernel whilst you make your system stable, once it is, then is the time to play with your kernel! I won't and nor will most other users want to help you if you don't follow that simple rule!

Nice camera hack for picking replacement gallery viewer, battery options etc - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50652193&postcount=15015
Chronus - Get the good old lockscreen weather and calendar widget that features in most AOSP roms, just make sure you select the Chronus Flex widget when you pick your lockscreen widget, that's the one you'll be after! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dvtonder.chronus&hl=en
Yet another screen brigtness app - Sick of Samsung's lame auto brightness feature locking to full brightness and requiring a phone reboot? Or annoyed it won't let you tailor the service the way you want? Well, install this and be very happy! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=biz.gyrus.yaab&hl=en
Bored of Touchwiz and in general all of the samey samey swipey swipey launchers out there? Try Smart Launcher 2! I have not looked back since, perfect experience for your phone, just be willing to play with it for half an hour and I'm sure many of you will appreciate it's overall simplicity! Of and freeze touchwiz afterwards and save yourself a nice chunk of RAM! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ginlemon.flowerfree&hl=en
Trouble shooting
Correct Wiping procedure:
Forgot the correct procedure for wiping your phone when making a switch between rom variants? Just so you do know, when moving from Android revisions or even within the same android build number (i.e. 4.2.2 / 4.3 / 4.31 / 4.4.4 etc) IT IS IMPERATIVE that you Factory Wipe Data, Cache, Davlik and format System! Failure to do so can lead to odd performance or nasty bootloops! Thanks to @andrewwright for reminding me to remind you!
NOTES
I have not developed any of the apps or mods or guides that are linked to this guide, please pay respect to their respective authors and contributors directly on their forum threads.
I will endeavor to update this guide with new things I discover and learn from peoples contributions on this thread.
You always take responsibility for your device! The easy way to protect yourself is make a nandroid backup, back up your apps using titanium backup, freeze or disable your apps rather than uninstall them, don't do anything suggested on this thread unless you are either competent or willing to learn as you make mistakes!

When flashing roms:
To stop the likes of bootloop when swapping between aosp and custom tw sammy roms remember to format data and system in recovery FIRST then flash rom/gapps. factory reset isnt enough imo for a clean install. When returning with an odin flash if you have a bootloop go into recovery and "factory reset" and reboot the phone.
I see so many threads started about these bootloop problems when swapping between aosp and tw its a good idea to have this here imo.
Also for the total noobs out there...PIT FILES are a LAST resort! Dont mess with these till you understand what there for. If you still dont understand after reading about pit files....ASK SOMEONE. Dont just flash and hope for the best.
Great idea and a good guide. :thumbup:

I forgot that some people don't always know the mega basics!
And God, I hope people don't use pit files on this device! I made custom pit files for the s2, but that device needed them! I have threads for that work, but yes no need for people to play with that on our trusty phone!

I think gravitybox has more features than wanam. Like double tap notification bar to sleep.
probably you should include gravitybox modules. I'm using it. On archidroid.

Indeed, I use Gravity box also, I need a bit of both to get the system functionality I desire.
I will be updating the OP for Gravity box shortly, there are a few things to be cautious of according to some user reports, so I need to put a disclaimer to it. Cheers for contributing :good:

yeah. GB is not meant for samsung touchwhiz. wanam is designed for touchwhiz.
so far i dont have any issue.
the reason why i use GB is because
-double tap status bar to lock screen
-status bar icon can be changed to kitkat icons
-ram bar available for recents apps
if only wanam have these features then i would go for wanam.
currently having greenify and gravitybox in my xposed module.

It's very hard to differentiate between archi and neat, both as good as each other!
Mixing both modules no issues, but obviously make sure your settings between the two don't conflict otherwise you could have issues.

Give the profile a try and find out. I find ondemand the most balanced performing governor, offering both performance and battery saving potential. However, upon my using my v3 profile for s couple of days, I have chose to alter my setting of swappiness from 60 to 40 and have altered the zram down to 160mb. The balancing of the profile is getting close to perfect and I hope to release a final version by next weekend!
