Thanks again to Imoseyon and JBoxen for continuing their awesome work!

 

[Jboxen]

Any chance any of these build.prop performance/battery saving tweaks can be applied to the OG Droid perhaps??

Probably could be applied the same way.

Minfree has been tweaked, Timezone is auto now, and new cron jobs have been added. Nothing is visible without root explorer.

oh I'm sorry, I was typing the terminal commands and nothing showed up for cron so I thought it didn't apply. Thanks for the guide .

wait, my bad, I guess I need to do those manually first then do the zip, ignore me!

The zip comes with everything now. All you need to do is apply the zip.

I guess I'll try this again tonight, not sure why nothing was showing up, appreciate your help and Imoseyons work.

What Rom are you running and what values do you think aren't changing?

I am running the new zip 4.0. On liberty 1.5 and I am ULV @ 1.2 ghz and I am on ten hours of battery life and only at 70 percent

"To verify that the zip was applied successfully, you can run this command from Terminal Emulator:

To check cron:
pgrep -f crond
If you get a number, then you're all good.

To check sysctl:
sysctl -a | grep vm
Should be the same values as below."

What Rom are you running and what values do you think aren't changing?

Running Darkslide v4.2(blurless).
When I type the line that's up there nothing comes up for cron, no numbers, and for sysctl the only thing I saw that resembled what I changed was the number 4096 at the bottom of the text directly above the two normal denied permissions. Unless that's normal for the DX, all of this confuses my small mind .


edit: I typed su first if that matters, didn't change with and without it.

Hmm I didn't test the new version with darkslide. Just assumed it would work. Wanna try the previous version?

The ones I included in my thread are for liberty only. Imoseyon has one for dark on his site.

 

[imoseyon]

Oh I bet that's it. Do not use liberty version for darkslide.

already flashed liberty back because I missed it I'm sorry. only reason I went to darkslide was because I wanted hdmi but it's only a luxury so meh, I'll flash the zip tomorrow and I'm sure it'll work great, thanks for your work .


edit: read rom agnostic but I guess I skimmed through, my apologies.

I executed your backup.sh and it didn't create a folder imoseyon on my sdcard or anything. Also I checked the tmp folder for the purge logs nothing is there. Pgrep -f crond is giving me a number. What's the problem?
