Default My Results from using SilentBtdeadly's Methods for better life and performance

Hey guys, I know there are a LOT of ICS threads here, but I believe this is truly effective. So this is for ics roms, and its pretty simple, so I'll post the link here so you guys can read some

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1628457

All right, so I'll post some pics so you guys can see how effective its been for me.




Here is my battery life. I started using the method mentioned at around 11 hours 50 something minutes, the rest, 11 and back is before I started using the options. At the moment, its been staying at 20% as I'm writing this lol.




Here, I restricted Facebook app (which I use on a regular basis) background data, and the gray part, which is background data usage has deceased significantly, before the option was disabled, the grey part was larger than the green.

I also, as the link I posted says, limited background processes to 4, which can be found under development in settings.





RAM usage is supposed to improve after doing this. Usually for me, at this percentage battery left, about 500 plus mbs is used. However, in this pic, which is after I applied the changes, I still have the same amount of RAM used as, say, when you reboot your phone.





Will post updated pics tomorrow night
Thanks to silentbtdeadly!!

HOWEVER, I think I may have to try this finally.

Thanks for posting your findings

Yes I know, but I wanted more people to know my results from this, and I think this is the best way

DONATE TO ME
I know this stuff works, I have practiced this ever since I posted, taming background processes and data not only makes everything snappier.. I'm pretty sure it saves on battery too(and I have pretty consistent good battery results). I was hoping to have more of a list of tweaks that could be effective to update the OP with.. but I am still happy with those two.
The only thing that sucks is that the background process limit setting gets reset when the phone is restarted.. but it is worth a few seconds to set everytime you reboot.

PS: I am not a noob, I swear. I know my android pretty well My helpfulness is fueled by the thanks button. (Hint: thanks button is FREE!)-so hit it! Or god forbid, hit the donate button- lord(spaghetti monster) knows this broke ass college student could use some more ramen.
