Digitizer, Internet, Performance Booster root only, Any experience

[MustangLife]

I'm now on 4.4.2 deodexed and bloatfree

On 4.1.2 I was running like 4 or 5 very very lightweight optimizing apps from Gejos enterprise. All for rooted phones and all had 4.0 and higher rating. Does anyone have any experience with these apps and if they work or are a placebo

Performance Booster (root) - 122 KB size - manages kernel process for all layers, so you will get the fastest for any processes in your rom

RAM Booster (root) - 58 KB size - manages RAM process for better RAM management

Internet Booster (root) - 147 KB - you will find faster internet connection and stable with internet speed boost up around 40% to 70% of speed than before

Digitizer Booster (root) - 55KB - configures for the best screen graphics settings in the system ROM for fast screen scrolling and still smooth even fast scroll, more responsive, better in digi-touch experience

I was running these 4 programs along with setCPU on 4.1.2 and my phone was pretty snappy. But I was hoping others would test these apps out or chime in. I like the fact that they are root only apps lightweight and free and the paid versions are mainly just add free. I haven't really heard much about these apps I'm just curious if others have used them like them or hate them, etc

I have to ask, who exactly is "Gejos Enterprise"? And if I go installing these tools as root, how do I know they're not going to brick my device, or go phoning home all my personal and private info to a server in Moscow or Beijing or something.

They all look pretty bogus to me and I'm guessing any perceived performance increases are placebo, sorry.

The descriptions give little to no indication of how they're supposed to work and the screenshots show you nothing other than disclaimers and checkboxes.

I can't understand how installing an app will mystically speed up my internet connection.

 

[mikedt]

Snake oil I think, and if not careful, snake oil that could brick your phone.

That's 4 pieces of seriously bogus BS. Run away! Run away!

 

[argedion]

First I commend you on having the intelligence to ask.

I agree with my compadre's stay away from these kinds of apps most have no benefit to you.

 

[MustangLife]

I had to ask cause they looked interesting. Every description says its not a placebo so I guess that's like a guilty utterance. The snappyness from my phone was probably setcpu doing that and the performance governor. Thanks for the input guys

 

[funkylogik]

I wouldnt recommend using "performance" governor btw mate.
I could be wrong but I think that locks your cpu to maximum frequency no matter what the phone is doing which will obviously eat battery

 

[Hadron]

That is precisely what the Performance governor does. But hey, it will make the phone as snappy as it can be!

 

[Crashdamage]

Not only hard on the battery, but hard on the CPU. Absolutely could cause failure. Pushes the CPU hard, makes it run hot and actual performance gains are very minimal. More placebo effect than real improvement. Why strain hardware when there's not much it needs to do and could be taking a break?

Not recommended.

I've been running a performance governor for about 3 weeks now and I/O set on noop. When the phone is off Im on min frequency and on demand and deadline i/o. Strong power use after a hour or so my cpu hits 110 degrees fahrenheit or so. Sometime it might hit 11r or so but theres tasker profile built in and I have the gov and freq dialed down. I'm running right now at 87 degrees and the phone has been pretty constant. I get 1 hour of screen on use like browsing in chrome etc. I use wifi and data and sync are off. With phone idle time and being a power user lets say 7 hours of screen on use. Greenify xposed/donation I can go all day and need to charge at bedtime at 20-25% battery.
