[Scripts] The Legit Zip (Feb 8, 2012) & Nifty Coniptions Tweaks v1.01
Update At Bottom Of OP
Here is a flashable zip of 3 scripts that when put together speed up your phone and make it faster. I did not write these scripts, I just edited them to work like Car-O-Dopes tweaks. It basically has the same values as Car-o-Dopes tweaks. I used the S97ramscript, KickAssKernel, and 02sicktweaks but I changed the values of each script to match what Car-o-Dopes tweaks do, and I wanted to share this with you all because it makes installing these tweaks easier and faster. Thanks to zeppelinrox for the kickasskernelizer, Juwe11 for the S97ramscript, Smokinl1337 for the 02sicktweaks, coffehandle for giving me the idea when he made his own tweaks, and Car-o-Dope for coming up with the ultimate combination of out-of-memory settings and sysctl tweaks that make your phone smooth as butter.
I use this on my HTC Evo 4g running Shooter E3D, with AnthraX kernel and it works like a charm.
Thanks to coffeehandle over on XDA for update-script, now there's no need to mount /system and /data. When using either of the two updated scripts below, skip steps 9 and 11.
Flash at your own risk. I am in no way responsible for anything that happens to your phone.
Instructions: Follow Exactly
1) Make a nandroid backup incase something goes wrong or you want to revert.
2) Download a file manager like Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (I use Root explorer).
3) Open up root explorer and go to "system", then "etc", then "init.d". Click on the "Mount R/W" button so it turns to "Mount R/O" (that way you can delete files).
4) Delete any or move to a folder on your sdcard (incase you want to revert) any ram scripts or ram tweaks you may have that is in the "init.d" folder (examples of ram scripts or tweaks are 01sysctl, 06sysctl, 02sicktweaks, S97ramscript, 99supercharge, and 98Kickasskernel).
5) Also if you are running v6 supercharger, you need to un-supercharge. If you are running Kickass Kernelizer, you need to un-kernelize and do not run those scripts while you have the niftyconiptionsscripts installed.
6) Uninstall any ram manager apps or task killers and do not use these.
7) After you uninstall all of that, reboot your phone and verify that none of the scripts you had before are still installed. (it will mess with the scripts you are about to install).
8) Boot into recovery (preferably Amon Ra).
9) [ONLY DO IF YOU ARE USING ORIGINAL TWEAKS]Once in recovery, you need to mount /system, then mount /data.
10) Find the niftyconiptionstweaks.zip you downloaded and flash it.
11) [ONLY DO IF YOU ARE USING ORIGINAL TWEAKS] After you flash the zip, go back and unmount /system. Don't mess with the /data because after you flashed the zip, it automatically unmounted the /data for you.
12) Reboot phone and enjoy. Let your phone set at the lock screen for about 2 minutes, unlock and let it set for another 2 minutes to let it settle in. Your phone will become dramatically smoother after about an hour.
To see if the settings stick, in root explorer go to "system", "etc", "init.d" and see if you can find the scripts. For a double check, download Rom Toolbox, go to the "performance" tab then check the "Auto Memory Manager" and see if it has values of 6,12,55,70,85,100 and "Sysctl tweaks" section to see if it has the values of 4096, 70, 50, 50.
UPDATE:
Nifty Coniptions Tweaks
Updated niftyconitpionstweaks. Install just as you would before and follow directions as posted above. I got rid of some unnecessary settings in the scripts. Also your sdcard read ahead speed will change to 512kb which is the optimal speed for the evo.
Here is The Legit Zip I just put together. This has the same settings as the V6 Supercharger on option 8 and the Kickasskernalizer. I did not change any values to these so its the same as installing those two scipts manually. Again, I did not write these scripts, I just put them into a tweak bundle to make it easier to install. Thanks to zepplinrox for making the V6 supercharger and the Kickasskernalizer. To install this, follow the same instructions in the first post and remember to skip steps 9 and 11.
To see if the settings stuck, download Rom Toolbox Pro and go to the performance tab, Kernel tweaks or Sysctl Tweaks (depending on what version of the application you have) and see if it reads as Min Free KBytes - 4096, Dirty Ratio - 95, Dirty Background Ratio - 60, VFS Cache Pressure - 10. Then go to the Auto Memory Manager and see if it reads as 6,12,150,165,180,200.
If you would like me to add another version of the V6 Supercharger just let me know.
Have fun and hit that thanks button if you like it.
Ok I ran three other tweaks before this one and I can say already that this one delivers hands down more blazing speed than any of the others. I feel like I just pcked up my vette from calloway and the test drive is blowing me away. Great job whomever made it!

I have run different tweaks in the past, not even sure which ones.
I haven't run any on this rom though. I looked on the sd card and I see evidence of them in that file that was mentioned. What all do I have to clear out of it to get to the point I can run this? Is it supposed to be completely empty? I don't want to delete something I am supposed to have.

I had the same question, so I just googled everything and only deleted the tweaks.

The init.d folder doesn't need to be empty. Delete scripts like 01sysctl, 02sicktweaks, 97ramscript, 99supercharge. After its all deleted, reboot phone, once it's rebooted, reboot again but into recovery and flash the zip

Lol that'll be a good combo. I usually switch between MikG, Shooters E3D, and Tommeytomatoes classic 0.0.5 and it works great for me.
I'm still new to this and this is my first combo, seems to be a crowd favorite. I do need to try some other things though, excited to see how this tweak works first though.

Well good luck with it all and welcome to Android lol
Running today is very smooth and quicker, so far very good and easy install. Aside from the better performance, is there anything else I should be looking for? Thanks for your work!!

Nope, that's all I intended it to do :-)

Followed everything to the letter...all is good so far...
I created a folder on sd card called "Tweaksmoved" and I moved 2 files to it from init.d...they are in there as "00sysctl-Copy" and "06tweaks-Copy"...
Are they copied now? If so, the originals are not in "/system/etc/init.d" anymore which is good...but where are the originals? I tried to move them originally with root explorer and that's when I copied them...then went to ES File Explorer and moved them...(easier with File Explorer (more familier with ES))
I pulled a 1595 on quadrant with cm7/tiamat. I previously pulled a 1450 with Savaged Zen rc4/ Savaged Zen 2.2.1 and a 1550 on cm7/tiamat without the tweaks, so they work and they work well. Thanks!

All you should have to do is use root explorer, go to /system /etc /init.d, push the "r/w" button on top, long press on the scripts you need to remove and hit the "move" button. Move them to the folder you created, reboot, go back to init.d and confirm they are removed

Well, not only did I move them, I must have copied them...
They are not in the init.d anymore...can I delete them from my sd card now...all is working good.

Yup you can delete the ones that are copied but I would keep the version you moved on your sdcard just incase you ever want to revert.
