Root Tim's Evo V 4G Tweaks - 3,800+ In Quadrant!!!

[voxibanez]

As a former Triumph user, im addicted to squeezing the best performance out of my phone, especially through the use of tweaks. Here are the tweaks I am currently using on JMZs VM Shooter Rom.

I am am not responsible for what happens to your phone, these all worked for me with no adverse side affects so if they don't work for you, its not my fault.



Build Prop Tweaks
Note: You must be rooted and have a file manager capable of Read and Write access to your system folder. I highly recommend using Root Explorer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer&hl=en

To acess your Build.Prop file, go into the System folder in the root of your phone. It will be the only file there thats not a folder, right under the bin folder. If your in Root Explorer hold down on the Build.Prop file until a menu appears and click "Open In Text Editor". Add any of these lines into the bottom of your Build.Prop file.

Save the text file and reboot

AFTER APPLYING THESE TWEAKS, BOOT INTO YOUR RECOVERY AND WIPE CACHE AND DALVIK CACHE



GPU Tweaks
These tweaks will increase your GPU performance by putting all the rendering on the GPU instead of the CPU


Adreno Config
First, using your File Manager, navigate to /System/etc and open up adreno_config.txt in the text editor.

Scroll down untill you find the section called "Binning".
Under the first section of Binning change the line "binning=sw" to "binning=hw" (Without the quotes)

Scroll down near the bottom untill you see "2D Settings"
Under the first section change "2D.HwBlt=0" to "2D.HwBlt=1" (Without the quotes)

Scroll down until you find a section called "Features and Performance"
Scroll down until you find the text "Enable tiled textures"
Change "textureTiling=0" to "textureTiling=1" (Without the quotes)

Save the text file and reboot


EGL Config
Next we are going to disable software rendering completely

Navigate to /System/lib/egl
Open egl.cfg and delete the first line "0 0 android", leaving the "0 1 adreno200" line. Save the file and go back to /System/lib/egl and delete "libGLES_android.so"

Reboot



Enable Both Cores
This tweak enables both cores for a real performance boost when the screen is on. And disables the second core when the screen is off, saving power.
Dual-Core Mod fix.zip
Download the above file and put it on your sdcard. Then go into your recovery and flash it.
Note: For everyone experiencing the button lights not turning on with the old scripts, just flash this zip and it will overwrite my bad scripts

Remove Dual Core Mod
This zip reverts the init.qcom.post_boot script back to stock
[Stock Evo V] init.qcom.post_boot.sh.zip
(Thanks Mobstergunz)
Download the above file and put it on your sdcard. Then go into your recovery and flash it.



Flashable Tweaks
These are tweaks that are flashable through a custom recovery (You do not need 4EXT or S-OFF to flash them)

THESE FLASHABLE TWEAKS ARE NOT MADE BY ME!

To install kernels:
You need to be rooted, and have installed a recovery, either 4EXT with S-ON or S-OFF, or a different recovery with S-OFF.

For the enable cores, does the permissions have to be fixed

For the enable cores, does the permissions have to be fixed

Ya it does
Ill add that

 

[thebryceee]

Don't use what with stock kernels? The flashable zips?

 

[thebryceee]

Also, those tweaks need full permissions? You sure it isn't supposed to be like this? That's how the other files are.

It works either way, it makes it less complicated to check off everything
I haven't experienced any drawbacks by enabling all permissions.

 

[voxibanez]

Don't use what with stock kernels? The flashable zips?

The duel core tweak for AnthraX kernels is for AnthraX kernels only because its set at a 1.536 GHz overclock, which is unsupported by the stock kernel.

 

[thebryceee]

I did it and it booted up fine

Edit: I was talking about the tweak that disabled one core when the screen is off lol

 

[voxibanez]

Edit: I was talking about the tweak that disabled one core when the screen is off lol

Its all in that one tweak. It enables both cores when the screen is on and disables the second core when the screen is off. Sorry for any confusion

 

[seg7]

Thanks for posting this!! So far I've applied all the tweaks except for the flashable stuff and the modified kernel. My Quadrant score went from ~2400 to a little over 3000. It's noticeably snappier too, especially with things like scrolling through the list of installed apps.

For comparison, my friend's Xoom scored a hair over 2000. My Optimus V, which is overclocked and running the Harmonia ROM, eventually scored a whipping 663.

 

[eatsaimin]

I did the Buildprop tweaks, GPU tweaks and now my phone doesn't go past the HTC screen.

Flashing a new Rom or restoring backups will put your phone back to normal make sure what you put in is safe to use

Man, what would I do with out you....lol

 

[wigginst]

Leslie Ann: would these build prop tweaks bork anything in Harmonia?

voxibanez try adding this to your Ril Tweaks for faster Wimax

[armeN0317]

sweet post! how does enable both cores effect the battery life?

also can anybody comment on the better camera mods?

 

[voxibanez]

Added!

 

[wigginst]

Any recommendations as to how to get these into the buildprop? I copied them to a word document on my phone to copy to the building prop and the text was way bigger than what had been there and it ran all of the text together.

What do most of these do to battery life?

When doing any editing of text files for android/linux I'd recommend that you don't use Word. Use a text editor instead such as Notepad++ or other text editors that recognize the correct unix/linux end of lines. Here's a link for notepad++ if you want to try that:

Notepad++ Home

 

[mastersoup]

if all else fails, make a copy of your build.prop, edit it on your pc, then overwrite your old one. works fine. though i think most of the formating issues can be fixed if the OP used

text

and i did everything up til GPU tweaks, didnt feel the need to go too crazy. but did see an average of +4-500 on my quadrant scores using mobsters rom.

^ +1 notepad++ is something everyone should have. works wonders.

also scored 2900 on harmonia current version with all tweaks installed.
