Zebra's Tweaks is a project made to improve atleast a little bit the android experience, this tweaks consist not only in init.d or build.prop ones, any tweak that can help your android device run more smoothly will help. anyway i will have to check it first and make it compatible with all the rest, this is thought to be an ALL IN ONE Tweak, that's what makes it special :D.

But wait, i dont want to overload your device with scripts, or just add random ****, i want to make a clear script which can make you phone fly but not make it drain battery like an overloaded piece of brick.

i made a simple menu to access to the information you need :


HOME: includes general information & Changelogs of everything

BUILD.PROP: Navigate trough explanations,codes,downloads in a post dedicated to these tweaks

INIT.D: Access the most interesting tweaks and choose which tweaks you want and which you don't want.

FRAMEWORK: Includes .jar hacking, apk optimization and tweaks from for example bools.xml

OTHER: Such an interesting category, every usefull tweak compatible with all these will be linked (for example, LMK script) and additional information will be displayed to help make it compatible with the whole tweak.




CHANGELOG
03.12.13 > Initial Release
05.12.13 > Updated build.prop section (New tweaks & New way to add Them)
05.12.13 > Added init.d section with some Scripts.
05.12.13 > Removed some of the Tweaks causing device not to boot.

WHAT IS ZEBRA'S BUILD.PROP TWEAKS?


Zebra's Tweaks are certain tweaks you can use on your nexus 7 (both Wi-Fi and LTE model) to get the most of it.



DO I NEED TO REPLACE MY BUILD.PROP FILE? WHAT IF I AM IN A CUSTOM ROM?

Well, i prepared a list of tweaks with categories so you can add what you feel you need or want.. also as there are just tweaks or improvements of older lines (like Wi-Fi one) you only need to add, not to replace or remove, so it's very hard to get a bootloop by doing this.

i analyzed (lol please sorry the bad english, dont really know if that word exists.) every single line so i know what i am throwing you, trust me, i will also explain every tweak so you can decide better, you can get lines here you wouldn't find in other places simply because they are not much known, so it's probably that you never heared of some of this lines, but doesn't matter, that's why i am here :angel:


REQUIREMENTS:


a) File explorer (with root support, like ES File explorer or Astro).

b) Build.prop file w/o Tweaks in the ROM.

c) Root (of course)

d) BACKUP of your current ROM (if the thing goes wrong).


WHAT DOES THIS TWEAK CONTAIN?

A) Battery Tweaks:
- Modified Wi-Fi Scan interval value (Scan every 3 minutes).
- Power Saver mode while sleep.
- Smart Connect & Reconnect to save battery.

B) CPU & GPU Tweaks:
- GPU Tile rendering improved.
- CPU & GPU now work better with the Ui.
- More..

C) Visual & Media Tweaks:
- JPEG Quality raised to 100%.
- Better photo quality.
- Audio Tweaks.
- More..

D) Smoothness & Responsiveness Tweaks:
- Removed useless services for Smoother Ui.
- Improved Scroll speed.
- Improved touch responsiveness.
- Scaled touch pressure.
- Nitro lag nullifier (by zeppelinrox)
- More..

OP, what is unlocked FPS tweak?
Frames per second. Potentially helpful for improved graphics in fast paced games. I haven't heard enough good things about tweaking this, myself. There's a possibility your battery life will be negatively impacted.

This is also available in Pimp My Rom BETA (a Play store app I recommend). Be warned this may cause usability issues. Backup first.

Side note: I manually added all of your tweaks to my build.prop and ended up with a non working Nexus 7. My device couldn't even load the bootscreen. Good thing I backed up everything already. You should check all of your tweaks before actually "manufacture" them :)
