Has any1 tried this already??? does this work?

It's working for me.
actually i did'nt even have any delay opening the dialer earlier.
maybe someone who had this problem can try and report.

at least there is no boot loop or 'stuck at m logo' problem ,so no harm in trying.

if you already have contacts in memory then ,
sys.keep_app_2=com.jb.gosms

also you can check app name from package browser located in setting>developer option>launch tools

This works great. Tried it.. all the apps added to local prop take no time to open... thanx a lot... :good::good::highfive:

 

[Mikis89]

Do i have to set specific permissions to the file?

 

[vaibhav palande]

Found one thing about editing local.prop

Found one thing:

After entering the app name in local.prop file leave one line blank at the bottom otherwise even if u save it, phone says no changes made... and apps u added in local.prop file won't be locked in memory.. Hope i helped.. :good:

What about this??? kanpurite?

What about this kanpurite? If we need to set specific permissions which i haven't done, i am living with a placebo effect here. :silly: But seriously now i kept my cell on standby for about an hour, and then tried opening phone, contacts and messaging apps.. BAM.... They open within a split second..

EDIT:

when you create local.prop it already has the minimum permissions set (666).
so i don't think there is need to set any permissions.

It keeps your app's in memory all the time.
you can try it if your app's load slowly.

go to /data folder using any file explorer.
create a new file named 'local.prop'.

open it with text editor and add these lines :

sys.keep_app_1=com.android.contacts

sys.keep_app_2=com.android.mms




now save and reboot.

Thanks a lot!
Hope discussion in the main thread wil be over now.
I was in the ' camp' a phone is (still) a phone primarily (for me at least)....

Sd card?

May local.prop be on the sd card in the folder /mnt/sdcard/data ?

 

[ishansharma21]

how do i create local.prop file.....can u tell me full steps and is data folder is on sdcard

 

[vap_66]

Guys, the path is in the phone's memory. The / sign means the root of that file system.
To make it clear: if you put that file on the SD card the phone will EXPLODE .
