Rubix vs Apex

I love fission, but you guys (DeFuse) should probably stop asking for donations on the basis that you don't have a droid x to test builds on...

What?!? These people are bringing the cosest thing we have to true ROMS for the DX/D2, and you thinking they should quit asking for donations?

That is illogical.

edit, retracted: OK, i understand how my statement could have been misinterpreted. If you've read the Fission 1.2 thread or been to the Team DeFuse website, you've surely read that they are asking for donations, which is fine and to which i have contributed to, but they are asking partially on the premise that they do not have a physical droid X to test builds on. That had been my understanding, and part of the motivation behind my donation. Then, as i'm sure you saw, Drod comes in and says that they do indeed have a DX, which is what prompted my original comment. Now, he has clarified and stated that, as i understand it, the CURRENT, WORKING DeFuse team does NOT have a Droid X. whew...

BUT, this has all been a massive digression from the topic of the thread, to which i say:

I run Apex. I went Fission 1.1>1.2>Apex. Fission 1.2 absolutely flew, but i can't live without my panoramic pictures and HDMI out. I'm happy with my current Apex setup for speed, flexibility, capability, and reliability. I'm probably going to flash back to fission this weekend and see if i can get some of the blur apk's that fab provided to run.

Yeah, I fully understand where you are coming from now. You would think that for sure by now they would have received enough "donated" money to purchase a Droid X, at least one would think...
 
Run this in terminal and you will up your quadrant scores by 1000. I found these commands last night and wow rubix is so much faster. Don't believe me, try it.

su
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
# chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/01cpuod
# chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/02vm
# busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d

would this have the same effect on Apex? I had a rebooting problem with Apex's auto overclock, if i run this, would i have the rebooting problem again?

Thanks!

Tranquility is probably the weakest excuse of a ROM available for the DX right now. If it works for you though, more power to you I guess.

I FORGOT TO MENTION!
I've ran the folllowing code a few days after my Rubix installation. I guess I may be basing my feelings off a tweaked Rubix vs Apex.

If you have Rubix, run the following code and then put on your dirty shades :)


$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
# chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/01cpuod
# chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/02vm
# busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d


You only need to run it once. Drod mentioned this at XDA but may not have here. It will increase performance and battery life!

Any thing special happen after the lines of code are entered to indicate success?

No, these are rubiX specific.

Not that I know of. These are just changing the permissions on the files.
 
luv2increase said:
Ummm...Changing the permissions is only one part of what those lines of code do LOL

I believe you forgot to look at the last line of code... :icon_ banana:

It also mounts the file system for read/write as the first line. The last line runs the scripts in the init folder maybe? Not 100% sure what that does (I am not too familiar with Android)

I stand by my statement that nothing will be shown in the terminal to say that the command was sent. You will get an error if something is wrong (typo, file not found, etc).

Happy?
 
After you change the permissions, you can reboot and it will apply. Running the last line just runs it while you're currently running the phone.

These will only work on my rom, to those asking about apex. Fab doesn't have my tweaks in there. Although he did like my sysctl tweaks :)

Actually, after you type the last line of code, it clearly outputs the changes it has made! Geezzz

After executing it'll show the sysctl tweaks. Everything else just executes :)
