Will the aderno tweaks be removed if I flash the overclock kernel
mercury0x000d
The ultra-modern operator
Nope, shouldn't be affected at all.

Nope and both the kernels are technically oc. The optional alien kernel is more so with a Max frequency of 1.8
I think there is nothing faster than this working 100% stable. THANKS.

#2 aint bad
Breaking Records left and right around hereDS use swap:
in "\system\etc\init.d\" there is "03_swapon" with this code:
***
#!/system/bin/sh
busybox swapon /data/swapfile
busybox sysctl -p
***
I replaced it with "00zRam" from Halo rom 1.1, this code:
***
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep=1;
echo "1536,2048,4096,8192,16384,24576" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree;
echo $((64*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize;
mkswap /dev/block/zram0;
swapon -p 10 /dev/block/zram0;
sysctl -w vm.swappiness=50;
sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=70;
sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=90;
sysctl -w vm.dirty_background_ratio=70;
***
Do not use the lines with asterisks ( ***) of course.
Only advantage of this is: Original method produces occasional lag when heaving using the phone, but with this seems like 0 lag. Stability, functionality and other things does not have any change, I am using this settings since more than a week and did not find any wrong side effects.

Excellent information. I will give zram a try. If all works out well I will include it in the next release.
But note that other zram implementations have side effects, I do not know why halo's one works so well, and it is not only for DS, this works OK on WarpOEM too, but Antutu does not change almost nothing.
I did a clean install and everything is perfect, really better than perfect. JSmith really outdid himself here.
I want to step up my game from rooted stock rom to a custom rom. I'm starting with DS.
First question...what is a "clean install"?

It just means to do a factory data reset first, clear both caches then flash the rom of your choice.
But, The First thing to do is make a backup!!

I just finished the entire process and this is freaking amazing! The speed and smoothness are eye opening. It really is like a new phone. I'm glad I finally got the nerve to flash a custom rom because stock could no longer keep up with me and too many crashes. I figured DS would be a good first choice since everything is included in the zip and fully functional. Gotta admit I was nervous because this is pushing the limit of my android knowledge but with this forum anything is possible.
Many thanks to jimsmith80...I'll never forget my first.

I'm glad to here that you are enjoying the rom. I will have another update in the next few weeks, which will have a lot more of the unnecessary bloat removed from the system. Hopefully we will also have alliance into the beta stages too. I've got to be getting close to tracking down the issue with mms for that rom

I think you can get it back by adding a shortcut through activities?
Press and hold 1 in the dialer
I see the vm symbol under the 1 now. Never noticed it. TY.
