This thread is here to keep Entropy's ICS Development thread clean of all our talk about Modding, Tweaks and etc. This is the place to now talk about it. This thread will be updated constantly so keep checking back here for more. I will also have a Mod for each Entropy build till everyone is caught up on the newer builds. (Each download will be labeled with a corresponding build date) Enjoy!

A Message From Entropy: If you decide to install any scripts after flashing CM9 + gapps, Do NOT post bug reports on Entropy's ICS Development Thread. He will not accept bug reports from people running scripts such as V6 SuperCharger, And any other source of Ram Scripts and Etc. V6 SuperCharger is really not needed, ICS manages ram just fine.

RAM Manager by Juwe11 on the Play Store (like 2 dollars or something) allows you to change how the OS handles background apps. The developer claims on his XDA thread that the method that this app uses doesn't work like other RAM managers, so that it's better.

tl;dr: Lots of people in that thread claim it works. I've been using it for 2 months and it does make the phone more smooth. It did on CM7.

For CM9, I've been running the More Multitasking profile, with unkillable launcher, and changed the VM Heap size to 128. The phone is definitely more smooth.

I am not affiliated with this developer, but I felt that someone might find this useful.

I would like to just comment that unless some changes have been made to ICS by entropy then

1. If you hold the home button the apps that are in use appear and you can swipe them to "kill" them

does not kill apps. All it does is remove them from the "recent" menu. You have to go to your manage apps to kill any running ones in the background.

It leaves a V6 Supercharger folder on your External Sd card. Don't delete this as it has special functions to flush ram and super clean. Deleting script manager won't let you run these scripts when needed, best not to delete it.

Any ideas as to why the apn settings may not be working for me?


Delete user name and password, change mms proxy to 66.209.11.32. Change apn type to say default,supl,mms Menu>save> reboot. This should allow mms and most likely fix issues. I highly suggest everyone try this. It has helped a lot of people having apn issues. I have screenshots posted in the q&a section.
