and activate smart reflex vdd1 and vdd2

I have also the same problem with the battery drain. Since applying the patch (new user, no older patch applied until now) the Xorg process consumes 13% of CPU all the time. The CPU is running at 500MHz all the time.
The battery is empty within hours. :-(

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
i didn't bother with the transitions part because some people had tried the script but didn't like the the transition, and i'd found a transition i like :)

unless you don't need, don't enable smart reflex, it can cause unexpected reboots. Just search tmo about smart reflex and you will find countless threads on that. only if you have 3g on it takes battery like anything. if it is on 2g then battery can go for longer duration. Also, if your battery is more than a year old and in higher temperature then it will go down faster.

Except for the patch which had some values enabled, the patch doesn't seem to impact the battery life.

Use swappolube and increase vfs cache pressure to 1000 or 2000 and your battery should improve.

enable devel repository and install transitioncontrol. make all values to 10 from 25 and enjoy, the transitions are way faster.

with swappolube the proposed value are 100 for vfs pressure. What is the meaning of 1000?

see this

@zurrain101
these are the transitions of the stable theme-customizer (not the one in devel or testing)

and they are optional
i just put them to make a perfect N900

as corduroysack you can find the transitions you like

read somewhere that keeping 1000 or higher value will basically would increase battery life by not cleaning cache on frequent basis. I might be wrong, may be some guru can help with the value.

Default value is 100 and swappolube does not recommend any value but keeps it as default.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
i will try it
and if i will report if seen any differences

VFS Cache Pressure

Description: Controls the tendency of the kernel to reclaim the memory which is used for caching of directory and inode objects. At the default value of vfs_cache_pressure = 100 the kernel will attempt to reclaim dentries and inodes at a "fair" rate with respect to pagecache and swapcache reclaim. Decreasing vfs_cache_pressure causes the kernel to prefer to retain dentry and inode caches. Increasing vfs_cache_pressure beyond 100 causes the kernel to prefer to reclaim dentries and inodes.
Default: "100"
Suggested: "100"

i don't know what will be the effect on the battery consumption
but i am testing it:)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
I have made vfs cache pressure as 10, after reading stuff on droid forum and all, seems it makes battery last longer. I can see that battery goes down around 1% in an hour with gtalk and gvoice on 2G connected full time.

hi, kindly guide me...

first i download file speedpatch.tar.gz to my computer and unzip it...

then i tranfer the extracted 3 files to my n900;
speedpatch
speedpatch.sh
transitions.ini

when open file manager, these 3 files can be seen under
"user/" but i can't see any folder name MyDocs

then i open x terminal and type

~ $ sudo gainroot

/home/user # mkdir /usr/local/sbin
mkdir: cannot create directory ' /usr/local/sbin' : file exists

/home/user # cp /home/user/MyDocs/speedpatch.tar.gz ./
cp: cannot stat ' /home/user/MyDocs/speedpatch.tar.gz ' : No such file or directory

/home/user # tar xzvf speedpatch.tar.gz
tar: can't open 'speedpatch.tar.gz': No such file or directoriy

/home/user # mv speedpatch /etc/event.d
mv: cannot rename 'speedpatch': No such file or directory

/home/user # mv transitions.ini /home/user/MyDocs
mv: cannot rename 'transitions.ini': No such file or directory

/home/user # chmod +rwx speedpatch.sh

/home/user # rm speedpatch.sh
rm: cannot remove 'speedpatch.sh': No such file or directory

/home/user # /etc/rc.local
/bin/sh: /etc/rc.local: not found

/home/user #

then i reboot

then i open x terminal again and type

cd /dev/cgroup/cpu

can't see any files or directories, so the patch is not applied,,,
what to do? which step i made mistake? please guide,,,

tq

dude you have done some wrong steps at the starting , the command tar xzvf is the to extract the zip file you have downloaded .
try putting the .tar file in MyDocs and then try these commands

tried VFS Cache Pressure as 1000
But the battery gets empty too fast
trying 10
will see how it goes

gorgezilla 2011-07-06 12:12

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
i followed the VFS Cache Pressure indication and lowered it to 10. It seems it works - tweaking done via swappolube. Though it changes to 100 after a reboot it goes well here on my N900.

Swappolube displays a warning that you need to press "Save" if you want settings preserved between reboots.

what happens when it's put at 1000? does it become buttery smooth?

It flashes up as a thin overlay on the screen - if you look away for a second you'll miss it.

EDITED: Actually, no, sorry, it doesn't, it comes up as a warning until dismissed. What version of swappolube do you have? I've got 1.4 - if you press "Store" it just goes ahead, if you press "Apply" it warns to press Store if you want permanent changes.

did the apply button and then went to Xterm - root - reboot and when it starts the VFS is back to 100.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
thank you for your reply mr eefo,

i try download directly to my n900 from the link here at page 1

but i can't find folder name MyDocs at the file manager,
but there is folder name Documents

so i try download it under folder 'user/' since i can't find '/user/MyDocs'
i think i made mistake here too because the same happen when i type the scripts at x terminal...

or should i create new folder name MyDocs under folder user/

kindly guide,

thank you very much for your kindness,
i'm sorry for my stupidness,

or should i wait the speedpatch package at the extras and download and install via app manager soon, mr karam? tq

eefo 2011-07-06 13:02

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
ohhh so you are using the default file manager ?
that's the reason why you cant see MyDocs.
try installing Filebox from the app manager .
then you can explore your phone

If you already uncompressed the file in your computer, it is obvious that there are not .tar.gz on your phone.

The best way to help you is telling you to follow first post instructions step by step. Browse this forum from your phone and save the patch in the very root of your device. Even if you don't see it with that name, that directory is "/home/user/MyDocs".

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically (FINAL VERSION)
 
@siduapuluh

just save the speedpatch.tar.gz in the default root folder
Nokia N900/
it is the same as MyDocs

if you didn't understand it then use filebox

hey karam you should another thing in your first post .
as mehulrajput has mentioned in his post on page 77 .
use transitioncontrol and put all the values to 10 .
and yes it does work.
feeling everything fast and smooth.
