Loopy Smoothness Tweak
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137554

download the zip file and install through CWM
i see a difference, and i am not responsible for what you do to your phone.
 
hey man im still unsure if i should do this or not lol. did you just edit them in root explorer or could you just use notepad to edit the build.prop from your pc. also, where do you put the new codes and how can i know if the setting already exists or not?
 
You can use it in root explorer, search for them then add or modify the codes. There were a lot that were not in my build prop. Also there is a 3G speed tweak to add. I added the last one which crazily increased my 1x speed. Its not super fast but it works way better.

Can you post the files you edited or where they can be acquired. preciate it.
 
yo can you do me a huge favor and copy your build.prop file to your sd card and then post it on here? im still having trouble locating the codes to change. thatd be awesome if you could do that!
 
sorry couldn't get my laptop working here are the codes

what i did was up the vm heapsize, also i enabled the media stage fright and added the codes on the bottom

could someone also tell me what this is?
ro.use_data_netmgrd=false
 
ok sorry to sound like a noob AGAIN lol but should i just copy and paste the above codes into my existing buil.prop and paste them on the bottom? or do i need to place them in specific locations
 
nevermind lol i figured it out...how can i test to see if there are any noticeable speed increases? is there an app in the market?
 
speedtest.net, if you have 1x it uses the most of the speed since i found out that metros data is capped at 120 kbps.
 
I know how to get into my build.prop but, How do I copy and paste this to my build.prop? Sorry, im not a noob, but I cant figure this one out.

Thanks in advance.
 
How do I know its working I backed up my phones build and replaced with yours and I see no diffence and its the values update on the build you uploaded
 
Hi folks. Im understanding all of this except for howto transfer to new build to my phone. Its protected in the system directory. how do I remove the protection?
 
copied old prop to sd installed new prop to specified folder. seams to be running faster and i get more signal. THANKS TO THE DEV.:D
