Anybody who has enabled HW acceleration and has found instability in anything needs to turn it off and try everything again.

agreed !
as there are categories in n900 :P
read some where there are three types of n900 nokia has released :P

what should i get after doing all this in x terminal ?

mkdir /usr/local/sbin
cp /home/user/MyDocs/speedpatch.tar.gz ./
tar xzvf speedpatch.tar.gz
mv speedpatch /etc/event.d
mv transitions.ini /home/user/MyDocs
chmod +rwx speedpatch.sh
chmod +rwx /etc/event.d/speedpatch
bash ./speedpatch.sh
rm speedpatch.sh
/etc/rc.local

all i got is ( couldnt find package )
though i opened so many browsers without a lag or crash.
am i missing something or script is working ?

sorry guys but i have to explain it in our language :p
so apology in advance :p

daikh bhai , sab say pehla kaam yeh kar k jo file download ki hai usay MyDocs mein phenk .
us k baad Xterminal mein ja or bari bari yeh type ker or han number nahi dalnay , just explanation k liyay numbering ker raha hun


1- sudo gainroot phir enter

2- mkdir /usr/local/sbin phir enter ( ho sakta hai k yeh error day ga k already exist , but koi tension nahi is ki)

3-cp /home/user/MyDocs/speedpatch.tar.gz ./ then enter (is ko beshuk copy paste ker laina couse space ka issue ata hai)

4-tar xzvf speedpatch.tar.gz then enter


agay b bas aisay e bar bar command type ker k enter kerna hai .
abhi itna ker k btao koi error aya ?

I don't know if this patch is the cause or not, but video rendering is very bad after I applied this patch.
Everything else looks really smoother, but regarding playing video files, a movie that I could see in a pretty good condition before applying this patch is now very,very,very, very, very bad. Sound is good but video is framedropping like there was no tomorow, it turned like it was a stopmotion movie...
Can someone confirm?

@trlopes1974
video rendering gets a bit worse with kernel-power v47
and for people having problems with double clicking the power button to get the swip to unlock screen
is actually a problem with CSSU

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
Yesterday, i installed the patch and all suggested tweaks, too, except CSSU because I don't know yet if I should :)

However, It's amazing. Everthing feels really much faster than before (although I though It was already fine for me without any patch and tweaks).

I'm not sure if I have Power Kernel 47 installed. I installed the power kernel (called titan?) already some time ago. How do I know if it is PK47?
:) -- sorry for my stupid questions.

One more:
What actually does 'smartreflex' and the value for 'vfs cache pressure'?
As i said I followed the instructions and it works. So it's just for curiosity :)

Thanks!

dont have the answer for knowing power kernel's version
but smartflex and vfs value increases your battery life .

i do have smart reflex and the vfs cache trick

standby from 2 days still 56% (just checked that) means will stay for other 2 days
standby with limited usage 4 days without charging
means completely stand by
phhh about 7 days until recharge

i saw a post before (in previous pages)
for some one said he used N900 for 9 hours heavy usage without charging using these battery tweaks

How is this possible?

I mean "vfs cache " trick "reads" like that access to the "virtual file system" (?) is cached and therefore power hungry I/O is reduced?

But what does this smartreflex?

Anyway, amazing!

smartreflex vdd1
you can activate it with qcpu application
it is very useful
however if you activated it you will not be able to overcloak more than 805mhz

hey brilliant work. everything is smooth. i like the transitions. but after installing everything, my transition control is not opening. any idea why? i wanna mod the transitions more but it is not opening after the stuff i did mentioned in thread. please help. cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
@karam

there are three things which I have done to improve the battery.

1. vfs cache pressure like I stated earlier to 10 rather than 1000.
2. enable smart reflex (which some time hangs so might disabled it).
3. powersave bias in kernel profile (change it to 20 instead of 0), it means it will not overclock to 805 all the time and try to conserve battery. slight impact to performance over battery life which I can live with any day.

karam 2011-07-08 21:19

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
@mehulrajput

Thanks for your post
i can now know that you are the one noticed me about the vfs cache

and about option 3
i'm testing it right now
we will see how it goes with me

if it goes well and saved a bit of battery (at least)
then i will post it in 1st post with
as mehulrajput provided the vfs and the bias in kernel profile tricks

cheers

I don't take credit for vfs cache pressure. It is available on net and might be mentioned on tmo already. Credit goes to whoever was OP. You are the one compiling lot of nice stuff here :-).

@RobertHall


-----------------------
sudo gainroot
-------------------------
apt-get install bash
------------------------------
Then repeat the steps


@zurrain101

the transitioncontrole app doesn't work because my transitions.ini
has the [thp_tweaks] sector
and transitioncontrole is not made to read that sector
so it thinks this is a corrupted transitions.ini

if you don't use CSSU
open the transitions.ini with any editor
ex : leafpad

then go and find the [home] sector
then delete the (they are under [home] sector
-----------------------
zoom_on_press=0
----------------------

and delete

------------------
parallax=1.3
------------------


then scroll down to the bottom
you must see
[thp_tweaks]

delete it and every thing under it

then relaunch transitioncontrole
it should be launched


NOTE: DON'T DELETE THE [home]
JUST DELETE zoom_on_press=0 AND parallax=1.3 UNDER IT


---------------------------------------------------

@prankster

your problem started with cp command
means you haven't downloaded the speedpatch.tar.gz
or you downloaded it but didn't put it in the /home/use/MyDocs

means you need to put it in the default root folder on N900
means download it to Nokia N900
and don't put it inside any folder

corduroysack 2011-07-09 14:33

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
if you've saved it to documents folder try moving it into the root folder. where all your other folders are i.e. audio clips, camera, documents, images, mac os, maps

just be patient i will release an easy apply way
just in 2 lines the patch will be applied

divan 2011-07-09 22:46

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
I've tried this 'patch' and it gave me no speed ups, but I got a lot of problems (from programs crashing to weird spots on window animated busy-indicator).
Before applying it, I've tested system under proposed load (8 browser windows, few more apps and Music Player) - and it was just fine. After apllying, the Browser crashed on the 3rd window.
So I removed it and will not try again until it will be proven to be stable and effective.
BTW, I've screencasted both before and after usage with tv-tuner, can upload it if interested.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Super Script [FINAL VERSION] + Tweaks To Speed UP N900 Dramatically + Battery Improvements
 
yeah i think that too

because the pach and the other tweaks (especially the battery once)
made my N900 super device

i'm really enjoying my n900 now
battey life + ultimate smooth
what do you need more ?
