thanks for these scripts :)

minor point, but you have "SaveBattery" comment lines in all three profile config scripts. Was that intentional?

Also, just to say that the Busybox clean doesn't work for me.

Looking at the script, I see it just removes the files from /system. Don't you need to remount /system rw first?

Thank you very much for the information!

I made an update1 script, with all changes. Since I am now on xxjvt, i feel that default kernel scheduler seems to be smoother than chainfires settings, so I changed also Recommended(HM).

Changes in update1:
- fixed comments in profiles
- disabled Kernel Scheduler from Chainfire in Recommended(HM)
- added UV options
- added darker display settings (night mode)
- fixed clean busybox

This can also be testet with Semaphore 1.9.0b.

great, thanks.

oh, just spotted tiny typo, for whenever you're next editing the file...

tests/enable_busybox_clean

#Removes all exept kernel busybox (Reboot is required)

"exept"

Edit: and in the odd place "reseted" should be "reset"

===

Have you considered checking the return code from the script and notifying on error?

thanks again

I should not make scripts, when I have no time for it :)

I will fix this with next release. But this take some time.

using with semaphore 0.62

Could you please make a zip file from the whole SemaphoreScripts folder on your sdcard and send it to me.
After that delete the folder, and try again.
If there is still a fc, it would be great, if you would install log collector (free), reproduce the fc, collect the log (send a mail to yourself) and send the log file to me.

SaveBattery Setting sets conservative governor with up_threshold 95 and down_threshold 75.
With this configuration very low frequencies are used, but phone is still good usable (but not as snappy as with ondemand of course)

:) Don't get me wrong :)
I belive (still testing battery) that it saves battery.
BUT
When I reset all scripts to kernel default (via SEMAPHORE 0.62) I can select in SetCPU 3 options - smartassv2, ondemand and performance. I run CONSERVATIVE script - and I have 4 options in SetCPU - conservative, smartassv2, ondemand, performance. Again - I run save battery script in Semaphore - and still only 4 options in SetCPU. Shouldn't be here 5 options ???
OR MAYBE....
Choosing Battery Save script just changes settings for conservative without adding 5ts opion ???

    Hi guys,

    this is a Semaphore Script Manager, which makes it easy for everyone to manage the scripts provided by stratosk in his great Semaphore Kernel in /res/scripts folder.


    It enables and disables all the features immediately if possible, and copies them to, or deletes them from /system/etc/init.d automatically.

    All features with one simple click, and that without reboot.

    Semaphore Script Manager will be included in Semaphore Kernel.
    Instead of installing the app, you can also wait until Stratosk releases a bundled version.
    He will also provide improved enable and disable scripts in this release.

    If you don't want to wait, here the installation guide:
    Copy Semaphore apk to sd card and click on the file in any explorer on the phone.
    If you want the newest scripts (not necessary for Semaphore Kernel 1.7.5+):
    unpack SemaphoreScripts.zip.
    Move the Folder inside to the sdcard. (On the sdcard should be a SemaphoreScripts folder and the scripts in it)

    Install Scripts (Still works for overruling scripts with own scripts):
    unpack zip file:
    Move the Folder inside to the sdcard. (On the sdcard should be a SemaphoreScripts folder and the scripts in it)

    New ScriptPack Support:
    - Download a ScriptPack from Tapatalk, XDA App or Browser
    - Start Semaphore Script Manager, open Menu - Manage Packages - Install <ScriptPack>
    or
    - Copy ScriptPack in /mnt/sdcard/SemaphoreScripts folder, and it is installed

    About ScriptPack's:
    - Base packages replaces complete the kernel scripts
    (this can be used for testing new versions)
    - AddOn packages can be installed additionally
    (this can be used to get more tweaks or features)

    Thanks:
    This app provides access to scripts that enables/ disables existing or extending kernel functionality or kernel tweaks.
    Everyone is welcome to create and provide scripts for the Semaphore Script Manager.
    If a tweak of someone else is used, it should be displayed directly by the feature shown in the app.
    If I am missing someone in existing scripts, please tell me, I will extend the credit list.

    Special thanks to Stratosk, Chainfire, Pikachu01, Mialwe and Zeppelinrox who made all features and tweaks, that are provided through the Semaphore Script Manager.

    Special thanks to ZaneZam for making the Bootanimation ScriptPack
    As it is not possible to upload a file with 15MB, please download it from the following link:

    Problems and feature requests related to the app should be posted in this thread.

    There will come more features from time to time. The latest version will be always available in this thread.

    Older Versions moved to the second post.

    Have fun.

    Attention:

    All Script packages posted in the OP, are made for Gingerbread Semaphore Kernel.

    Please do not use them for the ICS Semaphore Kernel!!!

    Once I am on ICS too, I'll provide also AddOns for ICS.
    If there is a dev, or a advanced user, who knows what the scripts are doing, I would appreciate feedback, about Tweaks addon and Profile addon, if they are working on ICS.

    Thanks

    ScriptPack_AddOn_Profiles_V1.zip
    - Profiles Support
    - Possibility to save own profiles
    ScriptPack_AddOn_Cache_V1.zip
    - Enable 50MB Cache

    Changelog ICS v0.75:
    - .scripts folder is updated, when new kernel version is installed.

    Changelog v0.75:
    - .scripts folder is updated, when new kernel version is installed.

    Changelog ICS v0.74:
    - Same functionality but specialy built for ICS to get ICS style

    Changelog v0.74:
    - Hopefully fix the busybox problems with SlimICS

    Changelog v0.73:
    - Improved speed for installing large addons. (packages are not copied to .scripts folder anymore to detect which are installed)
    - Miscellaneous (tests) Section now showing correct state.
    - Selecting a Temporary Script will disable corresponding Kernel Feature or Addon and vice versa
    There are 3 types of Testscripts:
    - Runonce Scripts (like Clean BusyBox): test features with only one script
    - Temporary Scripts (like oc, uv, ...): test features that also exists as Kernel Feature or Addon
    - Permanent Scripts (like enable boot sound or animation): all other features in tests folder

    Changelog v0.71:
    - Fixed Installation Problem if SemaphoreScripts folder is missing
    - Fixed Force Close on conflicting script definition (enable/disable overruled by choice)
    - Increased height of Categories for better handling
    - Menu support for collapse and expand all categories
    - Menu support for installing SuperUser app
    - Menu support for installing script packages

    So from now on there is a simpler procedure for installation:
    - Download a ScriptPack from Tapatalk, XDA App or Browser
    - Start Semaphore Script Manager, open Menu - Manage Packages - Install <ScriptPack>

    Changelog v0.62:
    - Collapsible Categories, to get a better overview (state will be remembered on open/close/reboot of the app)
    - better texts
    - optimized app size
    - added/enhanced scripts, so nearby every feature can be enabled/ disabled without reboot.
    (so settings can be compared better. A reboot needs a long time and states are reseted, this makes it very hard to compare the settings.)
    - New kernel feature:
    * Underclocking
    * Conservative Governor tweaked for long battery life
    * all features are immediately disabled without reboot
    - AddOn Tweaks:
    * Immediate disable/enable of 50MB Cache, without reboot
    * Touchscreen: Stock, Chainfire, very sensitive settings
    - New script functions in Miscellaneous:
    * Clean Busybox (deletes busybox in system/bin, system/xbin)
    * Voodoo-Color set Stock Color ("disables" voodoo color, by setting stock colors)
    * Profiles:
    - Kernel default (disables all features and cleans init.d, only semaphore scripts, nothing else)
    - Recommended(HM) (enables my preferred settings)
    - SaveBattery (sets aggressive battery save setting, phone will lag a bit, good if long battery life is needed)

    Changelog v0.51:
    - Support for Test Scripts
    New Category: "Test (reseted on reboot)"
    Scripts are used from SDCard /SemaphoreScripts/tests/
    see AddOn_for_testing_OC
    - Only one SU process, to prevent "su-rights granted" during property change

    Changelog v0.42:
    - Fixed bug displaying wrong feature name, if scripts are overruled
    - Support for AddOns

    All scripts are simple, no mystery.
    All scripts from res/scripts can be adapted and overruled by copying the specific script to sdcard/SemaphoreScripts.
    The Tweaks of Chainfire are disabled automatically, but the Tweak App will show the wrong status until reboot.

    Best Setting for me:
    - LMK 64MB
    - SD-Card read ahead 256kb-64kb-best

    But try for yourself, and give feedback for the best settings.

    Description of the AddOn Features:

    1) Low Memory Killer (LMK):
    Android keeps all apps in memory as long as possible. If you start an app, that is already in memory, it starts very fast.
    The Low Memory Killer will remove apps from memory, if there is not enough memory for the current app, but this will take some time, the app "lags".
    The xx-mb is the free memory, when the Low Memory Killer will begin to remove apps from memory.

    32mb-multitasking: if you start a lot of apps parallel and want to switch very fast between the apps.
    92mb-chainfire: this is used by the minfree tweak from chainfire in tweaks app. This option is for using an app exclusive, no multitasking.
    48mb-default: this is the samungs default, a good compromise allowing a bit multitasking and not so much lags in big apps like 3d games.
    64mb-bigmem: this option tries to use the extra mem provided by the bigmem kernel to reduce lags.

    So it depends on your phone usage, what is best for you.

    2) SDCard read ahead
    If bigger files are read by apps, there is less overhead reading them having greater read ahead config.
    If apps read a lot of small files, there is less overhead reading them having smaller read ahead config.

    128kb-default: This is samsung default for all mounts. a good compromize.
    256kb-64kb: This increases the SDCard speed, as it uses a smaller read ahead for the kernel config files, that are mainly very very small. And a greater read ahead for the apps, and apps data that are mainly bigger than 128kb.
    3072kb-chainfire: This is the setting of SDCard tweak from chainfires Tweaks App. It is a bit too high, as there are also smaller files.
    Some people prefere 512kb-64kb or 1024kb-64kb.

    So you will see the difference of SDCard speed with Media Scanning, load time of apps.
