Build.prop speed tweaks [Updated Mar 12th]

chevanlol360 · February 23rd, 2012, 07:13 PM

Thanks to my very good friend mavrikmeercat for telling me to edit the build.prop and adding a couple lines.

.

This new build.prop that i edited actually speeds up your phone from somewhere to 20-30 percent and also reduce lags. Its very easy to install the new build.prop please follow the directions below.

Lines added:

ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=0
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
pm.sleep_mode=1
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
persist.adb.notify=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.he=1
ro.media.enc.hprof.vid.bps =8000000
ro.media.capture.maxees=8m
ro.media.capture.fast.fps =4
ro.media.capture.slow.fps=120
ro.media.capture.flashMinV=33000000
ro.media. capture.torchIntensity=40
ro.media.capture.torchIntensity=70
ro.media.panorama.defres=3264x1840
ro.media.capture.panorama.frameres=1280x720
ro.camcorder.videoModes=true
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
pm.sleep_mode=1
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=180
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=90

ro.media.enc.hprof.vid.bps=8000000
media.stagefright.enable-player=true
media.stagefright.enable-meta=true
media.stagefright.enable-scan=true
media.stagefright.enable-http=true
ro.lge.proximity.delay=150
mot.proximity.delay=150

Changes in version 0.6:

￭ 3g tweaks!?!?!

Make a backup right now!

Downloads Link

build.prop version 0.6

Build.prop version 0.5

Instructions

￭ Place the downloaded "build.prop" on your SD card

￭ Use a root explorer or a file explorer than can edit system files

￭ Copy the downloaded "build.prop" file

￭ Navigate to /system

￭ Place the new "build.prop" file in /system

You should see some difference with speed, media performance, and less lag on your Warp.

Say thanks to:

Snake X:

Provided the stock build.prop file so i could edit it

Androidxd:

Tested for difference in speed after the new build.prop was replaced

Snake X · February 23rd, 2012, 07:15 PM

i wanna know adnroidxD did you see a speed difference? to me i didn't really since i didnt experience any lagging to begin with

~~Spiyder~~ · February 23rd, 2012, 07:25 PM

Can you provide us the lines of cods that you added to the original build.prop please.

chevanlol360 · February 23rd, 2012, 07:41 PM

Added them in the thread and most of the lines that were added comes from the
SuperCharger script. I will update it from time to time to improve speed even more at least to a noticeable point. I will run a test to compare the changed files between the original ones and come back with the snapshot of the test.
Most of the added tweaks are to improve the camera and speed of it but 2 or 3 lins we're added to also improve the performance of the phone.

Update:

A update is coming tomorrow thats suppose to improve battery life, the line that i will add helps the phone sleeps better.

ylove · February 23rd, 2012, 08:35 PM

great job my warp is way faster now =D

Snake X · February 23rd, 2012, 08:52 PM

Can't wait for the update

I think this will be useful

Actually i did. Since i am a "have so many apps on your phone guy" & widgets. So you know it made my phone faster & i would experience lag Like everytime i would go from one app to another while have a bunch of other apps open (i dont know why) lol well over all it makes it faster

dylanp · February 23rd, 2012, 10:09 PM

Just installed a few minutes ago and I see the difference immediately...thanks so much I can't wait for the update my battery like everyone else's sucks and I am one of the people that get random and sometimes frequent restarts...I just deal with it because I love this phone...patience is a virtue

jjohnbubby5 · February 23rd, 2012, 10:18 PM

Does this fix the camera lag/ improve at all? That's really my only issue.

~~Spiyder~~ · February 23rd, 2012, 10:52 PM

Definetly see a speed improvement, especially when switching apps and definetly with the camera. Love the new video modes option in the camcorder!

For some reason I don't see the new video mode...

chevanlol360 · February 24th, 2012, 05:45 PM

Attention:

I have updated the build.prop for more speed tweaks, another update will be coming sometime next week maybe with the release of the $hEvRoN ROM

dylanp · February 24th, 2012, 06:41 PM

I dont see the new video mode either...but I did update to the new build just a few moments ago and it could just be me Im sure others will chime in but the phone seems laggy...slower than last night when i installed the first build

maybe its just my phone but I'd deal with the poor battery in order to have swift speed I may have to switch back to the previous one...thanks for all your hard work and effort...you rock

usually requires 2 reboot for the settings to be applied

jjohnbubby5 · February 24th, 2012, 07:08 PM

It works great. But I still can't find any camcorder mode.. I know I did it right. And the camera deff takes pics faster. .can someone please help me out on the camcorder mode.. ? Maybe a screenshot So I know.

~~Spiyder~~ · February 24th, 2012, 08:32 PM

Here is a screenshot of the camcorder modes. I dont remember them being there before and there is a line in the edited build.prop about video modes so i assume they showed up AFTER i updated to the edited build.prop. hope that helps.

~~Spiyder~~ · February 24th, 2012, 08:39 PM

Tested this 2nd release, works GREAT so far. Will monitor my battery over the next couple days and report back with results.

I had all that before the edit..

Defiantly increased streaming performance, just got done watching the newest "The Walking Dead". Streamed perfectly, and didn't work before.

X2 wayyy faster streaming.

MrBobo · February 26th, 2012, 12:14 AM

Anyone else having an issue where wifi turns on by itself after installing the file? Mine keeps turning on

downthemachine · February 26th, 2012, 12:28 AM

Mine has been fine

~~Spiyder~~ · February 26th, 2012, 06:33 AM

Yes i just noticed that issue last night. Had to turn off wifi the imeadiatly reboot the phone to get it to stop turning on. Not sure why, ima check those added lines in the build.prop and if there are any about wifi i will deleate and retest.

~~Spiyder~~ · February 26th, 2012, 09:32 AM

Ok, what i had to do to correct the wifi turning on automatically was to edit the modified build.prop line wifi.supplicant.scan_interval=180 to =90. I have no idea why it would be an issue but that is what worked for me.

chevanlol360 · February 26th, 2012, 09:52 AM

thanks i'll update it today fixing the issue for everyone

I wonder why its not an issue for everyone though? Wonder if its something like slightly different wifi chips in some warps or something?

hmm i doubt it, they probably just dont see it or they always have wifi on like me, so i wouldnt have seen it

downthemachine · February 26th, 2012, 02:28 PM

I rarely use wifi, but i have since the updated build.prop and haven't had any issues.. kinda weird

jjohnbubby5 · February 26th, 2012, 02:46 PM

I use mine sometimes. But mine never turns on by itself... I have had a problem where I try to turn it on and it wouldn't turn on and I have to Do a reboot to fix.. but I've had that problem for a while.

I wonder why it does that? It kinda annoys me. Does it too much. Almost every other time I use Wi-Fi tether.

MrBobo · February 27th, 2012, 06:57 AM

90 didn't fix this, still turns itself on fyi

Delete the line

mrsboots · February 27th, 2012, 07:27 AM

Wow, great job! I noticed that the widgets loaded much faster after reboot. Very smooth. As the phone started to fill up it started to get a little slower and this is fantastic work you've done.

One thing about the instructions, though...
You may want to add a line about backing up the original build.prop in case one needs to revert.

Good point, I am kicking myself for not doing this, on that note, anyone want to upload a stock build.prop for me?

I will try removing the wifi line to see if that works for my issue.

downthemachine · February 27th, 2012, 03:39 PM

build.prop.bak my build.prop backup, just remove the .bak from the file

I removed the line and that seems to have worked, I will give it a longer test tonight since I only was able to leave it off wifi for an hour today (I NEED pandora at work)

thanks again for your work chevan, looking forward to your ROM, how's progress on that BTW, not asking for an ETA, just curious how you are coming along on it?

Yeah test it longer and its going quite good actually no problem so far

Snake X · February 27th, 2012, 04:40 PM

Are you experiencing any file corruption by any chance?

dylanp · February 27th, 2012, 09:21 PM

I added the latest update last night and did a couple of reboots and the wifi issue still exists, I didn't notice it over the weekend because I was near wifi but my signal sucks at work already and so the phone trying to connect to wifi every few seconds sucks...but the battery lasted all day :-) I normally have to plug it in about 2ish so there is always a goos and bad or good and mediocre I guess...I thank you thank you thank you

Same here.

downthemachine · February 28th, 2012, 09:55 AM

This worked awesome by the way, thanks again. What else can we do with the build.prop?

dlanes · February 28th, 2012, 10:24 AM

I tried it and my power control widget doesn't work. I ended up reverting back to the old one and everything works fine.

DaddyZap · February 28th, 2012, 10:56 AM

Thank you very much. I just got my Warp and I rooted first than I put this tweak in. Coming from the Prevail this phone is so much more snappy. I didn't really get a lot of time to play with it. I can tell you than with this tweak net flicks works way better. When I first got phone watch a 30min anime withe a few spots where the phone had to buffer, after tweak no buffer on next anime i watched.

Rally 517 · February 28th, 2012, 11:22 AM

Yo Daddy good to see you on the warp side. Yeah I like my warp way better than the prevail too.
