So basically i tried the AMM Values that you suggested (6,10 etc...)
But that didnt work. I tried setting ADW (Which shows up as a Hidden Application) to the Never Kill in AMM( -17 priority) But it would still end up redrawing and resetting the priority back to 6.
Neither did the Bulletproof launcher thingie work
If i add the ro.HOME~ line in local.prop and untick Keep in Memory in Cyanogen settings, the Priority is still 6. (And it still dies)
If i keep it ticked, its at 1. (Donno if it matters but im desperate here!)

Sorry for the long msg and i hate to be a bother but id REALLY appreciate your help!
Thanx!

Do you have more than one launcher?
There is no way ADW would have such a low priority if it's the only launcher.

And yes, when you set an app to Keep Alive or increase its priority, it's not permanent - that's why I came up with the bulletproof launcher command.

It shouldn't matter, but I'm on CM612 and I don't see ADW anywhere in AMM's process list on my phone.
It's just lumped in with android.process.acore and in the process details it doesnt say ADW either - it's referred to as "com.android.launcher"

Also, be sure to have a blank line at the end of local.prop after the bulletproof launcher entry and be sure the set the permissions of local.prop properly. ie.

chmod 644 /data/local.prop

Also, you can take a look at the screen cap at the end of the OP to see what the permissions look like in SuperManager so you can do it graphimagically.

After a reboot the settings are defaulted again (after opening autokiller)

Anyone knows how to prevent that?

Try applying via AMM's advanced menu.
Close AMM
Open it again to check if the main screen reflects the change.
If it does, reboot and check again.

I've never experienced that situation tho

I did this .

Uninstall AMM and put 99complete file (zeppelin attached it few posts before) in system/etc/init.d ... than change permissions of the file to :

You can do this with Root Explorer. Settings in that file are 6,8,16,40,50,60 written in pages, but you can change them how you like.

Doh!... actually no, they aren't kilobytes - they're pages. 1 page = 4 kbytes.
Remember AOR's mem management thinks the same thing...
6144 is not 6 mb - it's 24 mb! ie. 6144*4/1024=24!
That's why AOR's mem management is fubarred lol

6 mb = 6*1024/4 = 1536 pages... so you put 1536 in your settings for 6 mb

Yh I didn't know should I put kb or pages so I guessed xD but Im wrong lol.

There u go, edited, bolded and underlined xD (coloured also!)

lol good stuff!

ok, added the 99-file and uninstalled AMM. Also went back to the older kernel.
If the freezes and reboots don't quit I'll throw the phone away!!

What memfree values (pages) are you using?
What is your overclock and vsel?

You can always go back to cm6 if need be

I am using your numbers 6, 10, 24, 40, 50, 60

900mhz, vsel I actually don't know, it's the CM7 default.

I've had 2.1, CM6, several Cronos Froyo's but they all had freezes and reboots.

I'm now using the most basic stuff, maps, dolphin browser, calling and whatsapp, that's not too much too ask isn't it?

how can I check my current vsel?
