it should be 543

supercharger v6, best read from author himself.

what i can tell you, it adjust the low memory killer (among other things).

u see, although android is linux, but it is designed a bit different. in desktop, linux has lotsa disk space and memory, kill app is definitely not a good idea. that's why most desktop OS uses swap file / pagefile, etc. rarely used memory will be 'paged' to disk.

android has better memory management for small device - low memory killer. whenever the system is low on memory, it will start killing application!

which one to kill first? who is next? what condition to meet before start killing the next?

these are control in 2 attributes:

1) associates each app to their group using oom_adj (out of memory adj)
- foreground running app - group 0.
- visiable_app - group 1 (other app that visiable, but not on focus)
- secondary_server - group 2
....
- empty_app - group 15.

you can control this by changing /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj

2) set a memory condition when it will start kill group of app
- this can be control from /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
- take 6 values, ie: 1536,2048,6656,6912,7168,7168
- start killing group 15 when free memory lower than 7168x4k
- start killing group 1 when free memory lower than 1536*4k

so, supercharger v6 adjust these 2 values. it will change the behavior of low memory killer. u can configure it to be very aggressive or otherwise.

of course sgx543mp2 is better than mali 400, it's a dual core gpu

I try 6 first... Erm... My Script Manager no Wording 'Run As Root' i need to tick the SU isit?

yes, tick SU

so mali 400 better or adreno 220?

Now... This step





I can't find this directory. Enlighten me!

the script will autorun. if you want to check whether the script is running, reboot and re-run the script and check for the current minfrees value. it should the same with prior v6 minfrees

@.@ Then what's wrong with the step? Anyway... I found the directory. Now on Option 6. How if I want to apply other option? Just run the script again and run them right? Hell yeah... My homescreen is totally LOCKED. ROCKS!

nothing wrong, it's for old version. yes, you just need to run the script again

Underclocked to 1GHz.

to get your homescreen lock, basically just add this into your "/system/build.prop"

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0

0 = same group with foreground app, so, it will be the last to get killed.

Can't just leave to option 5 to do that? I'm now on option 5.

if u use the script, it will do everything for you.

but if u know about low memory killer, u can basically apply whatever u see fit to your phone.

Ask u... Those numbers. 8 16 24 ... ... what does that mean? I see the aggressive option 1. The last number is 50. I think is 50MB. Does that mean it starts killing when RAM<50?

Anyone can tell me mine is option 6 or 5?

Option 5. U using cow's rom?

I asked after I read that. Lol... My idleing memory usage still around 260 but it doesn't reload the launcher. Multitask is easier now

Let say u chose:

6,12,75,90,95,125 MB

That mean, if less than 125mb free, u kill empty_app group.
If less than 95 free, u start killing content provider group.
...
if less than 6mb free, u kill front app group too!

As you can see, if too aggressive, most app end up got killed, and got reloaded (some app will simply reload) and thus should drain more battery too... there is give and take.

LOL. So... Now i'm using Option 5. The launcher is in Group 0? Possible to make even launcher get killed?
