Infromation About CrossBreeder-
- This is a new take at Android lag reduction. It's lightweight and won't consume battery. Users have reported drastic improvements in usability and even benchmark scores. It will show noticeable improvements - Android devices from Donut to Froyo to Gingerbread to Honeycomb to ICS and Jellybean.
- This is a combination of 5 different methodologies to reduce Android lag.
- Removal of DNS lag . A lot of the lag in a lot of apps, apart from the GUI lag, is due to slow DNS querying, specially on the mobile network.
- CrossBreeder now runs a caching, parallelising DNS client on the device. So now most of your DNS queries will be served from the cache and if not found, the query will be sent in in round robin fashion to multiple DNS servers including Google DNS, OpenDNS and your home router and the reply will be served to you, hot.
- This speeds up network access and networked apps, like Browsers of course, and Tapatalk, Gmail and thousands of others drastically. And removes a lot of the lag where it was due to DNS querying. This will not increase your network or download speed but pages will load much faster.
- This will future proof your devices as more and more apps start using HTML5 and/or reside completely as web pages or the like.-






I Just thought, there are some great developers in our forum, with great tweaks, geared for their own specific purpose, and i thank them. I HAVE asked for permission to use these tweaks, to make a pack of the best, from the best taking a few of those great tweaks and putting them in one lightweight package. Now , I did NOT create any tweak in this pack. That is why introductions and thanks are in order.

ALL THANKS TO THESE GUYS

Exit_Only - For being the mad scientist of the "tweak" in general ;)

Kobridge - Having used your tweaks in various roms and knowing how great they work :good:

Phakker - For the use of his Infamous, screenstate tweak :cool:

G_Ding84 - For being one h*ll of a rom maker , teacher, and one of the most helpful guys youll meet on any forum :)

idcrisis - For the use of his CrossBreeder Mod found here -
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113150

Without these guys we wouldnt be where we are now, as a forum, or a community.



Gentlemen- On behalf of the users of this tweak , and every E4GT owner out there.... *BOWS* I thank you....

I am in no way responsible for your equipment, flash at your own risk




Download ComaDose version you prefer, from the downloads section, and put on root of phone
Boot into custom recovery
Flash ComaDose
Reboot to rom (flash stock kernel) or reboot system etc.
This is a .zip file, can be flashed with CWM recovery, put on root of phones storage, boot into recovery & flash.


Issues with repack and new Custom Recovery kernels-
Now Ive heard it works for some people on repacks, and ive heard of battery drain, and GPS taking along time to lock on others. But the best results i get, are out of the "stock" Leak kernels.
Conflicting issues with new Custom Recovery modded and released updated version

Test Init.d With The "21 Test-init.d" script​

-THINGS YOU NEED-

Rom Toolbox (free or pro)
Root Access (superuser access) for Rom Toolbox
ComaDose Already Flashed

-Steps-

After ComaDose flash, if you want to check if your init.d is functioning properly you can check it with the 21 test init.d script...
After flash the test init.d script has already ran (on startup) now thwe sole purpose of this script is to show whether or not init.d
is properly functioning.
When this script is ran (executed) as all scripts in init.d are upon startup, it creates a file in the /data folder.

so why dont we take a look for it?

Using Rom Toolbox, go to the "root browser" tab (upon first startup youll be prompted to SuperUser permissions, Allow this)




Once in Root Browser youll be in the root of your device by default. ( / )
Click on the "Data" folder..




In the /Data folder, were looking for "Exit Only Init.d" file



if you see this file, your init.d is working and all scripts are running ... ;)


If you dont see this file after reboot (post flash) you can execute the "21 test Init " script manually...

back out to the root of the phone, go into "system", then into "etc" then into the "init.d" folder and locate the "21_testinit.d" script, press on it , bringing up this menu.





press the "open as" tab, bringing up this menu...





then press the "script file" option..

Then you want to press the "execute Script" option, making sure the "execute as root option is checked, as shown below.





which will then execute the script using init.d support to do so.. looking like this





after its executed, go back into /data and find the "Exit Only Init.d" file ;) if its there your init.d is working....

i had just put that particular gps.conf in there. there were different versions of the gps.conf file.. this version is working great for me.. is there a better gps.conf adapted to your version of the s4? if your that worried you can just pull it from the zip. if it turns out not to work ill pull the gps.conf all together... lemme know

the stock gps.conf works quite well but has those sensor settings in it which seem to estimate your movement with accel and gyro sensor

i myself edited the stock gps.conf slightly with the help of crypteds agps patch which i think saves me 2-5 sec for a fix. but normally i get a fix in less than 10 seconds. so theres no problem with gps at all and i didn't see any complaints about it.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33668449/gps.conf

also i dont get why you would want to change the lmk values. this phone has 2 gb of ram. most people dont even manage to get them full. theres no need to tweak things that don't need to be tweaked. nobody here has a problem with ram.

no offense meant but for me this looks like some randomly thrown together tweaks. you didn't even take the stock gps.conf from the s4 but some gps.conf from some random old smartphone.
like its not thought-out

GAURANTEED.... but you can say what you like.. lmao.. i know it works... and well, lemme know when you get something to work as well as this does.. no offense.....

what i most definitely will notice are interferences with the settings of the kernel i installed. you should mention somewhere that the rom one is using should be as stock as possible. no kernel tweaks or something from other devs. then some of these tweaks might work well.

i just already have seen the whole generic tweak package thing generating problems like crazy.

how can you guarantee it will work? did you even have testers on the s4?

chill... i already made a nandroid and am giving it a try the next day. maybe it will do something good to the battery...

also i even tried to be helpful between all those things you felt offended by. e.g. you now have a proper gps.conf for this phone...

Excellent. Ive already pulled the gps.conf, as you said the stock was fine. Im doing this to help you guys out, this has been working extremely well on other variants of the S4. You let me know what will affect your "kernel settings" as ive used this on 5-6 different phones, with dozens of different kernels, and ill look into changing it. Thanx for info...

@Goddly, thank you for this! My phone really does feel snappier, window animations do seem more rapidly right now and for sure I see some apps opening faster then before...

It could be placebo, but I think not!

Thanks again for your work!

Ps: I have an I9505 running a Touchwizz Rom(MEA)

Central Jersey. That's it
I agree with the last commenter. This does work. The room feels less choppy and instagram and Facebook feel a little snappier too. Thank you
