Juwe11's Ram Script

---

I found this ram script here on XDA yesterday and after I had it all set up and after rebooting this thing is flying, This script should work on all ROMs, I cannot guarantee that it will but feel free to try it.

I had to side load this but there is a flashable zip that you can download and install from sdcard in CWM Recovery.

The script requires init support in the kernel to work. If you are running OpenZio 2.1+ you already have it. This script needs to be located in /system/etc/init.d/ to run. Since I side loaded it I had to make a init.d folder since it did not already exist in this rom. You can either use Root Explorer to make a new folder, adb shell or terminal emulator to "cd /system/etc/" then "mkdir init.d"

Next, put the script in the new directory. Change permissions to 0777 or rwxrwxrwx
"cat /sdcard/S97ramscript > /system/etc/init.d/S97ramscript"
"chmod 0777 /system/etc/init.d/S97ramscript"

Next, reboot your phone and give it about a minute to start all processes and services. Then enjoy a faster phone. And you can use this with AutoKiller which is included with OpenZio ROM, a few tweaks to the script and I'm sure we can scrap AutoKiller all together. I personally think my phone is now faster than a fresh install of OpenZio ROM.

This is a great find.

I notice no difference at all tbh. I uninstalled autokiller prior to flashing the phone and did a few reboot tests to see my avail. ram. Ran about 25-30Mb. I flashed the RAM script, and ran more tests -- still 25-30Mb free and no increase in speed.

That's odd. I saw a 25% increase in UI responsiveness, but my phone now requires three full minutes to boot up, plus another two before my widgets show up.

Three minutes to boot up? Mine boots in 1 minute.

I thought it was a bit excessive too. Haha. I'm going to take a look at Startup Auditor.

I also have the boot animation disabled in build.prop I don't think that should make any difference though.

I've been making a few minor tweaks to the script to make it fit the Zio a little bit better so that I can have 50MB+ of RAM at all times. I'll post back here with any updates.

Wouldn't that be detrimental? After all; free memory is unused memory.

To a certain extent;
You want about 45Mb free at any time for good UI performance.
Once it sags below that mark, you will start to notice performance issues.

I'm sitting at 55MB average with alot of multi tasking. UI is super responsive now. Everything opens up in an instant.
