Well since everyone else is pimping their ROM, I decided to check it out. I'm just wondering if any one has experimented with changing the pixel density on this device. What would you recommend as a value? And does it produce any noticeable results?
I think that's about the only thing I don't know much about in that program besides dalvick virtual machine, which I didn't mess around with at all. Oh and the OOM groupings and MinFree values, I just set those to medium, but I'm not really sure what's best for those either.

I don't know what OOM Groupings and MinFree values are, Dalvik VM for everyone should be at 64 (out of the box, it's 32, but 64 is the max the phone should ever have if the makers of games are good at what they do, and it just speeds up games noticeably otherwise), no more no less, and as far as LCD Density goes there is a difference, but every time I've ever changed it I've had either UI issues (menus broken, graphics and other things), app incompatibility issues, or Play Store incompatibility issues.

I noticed in the xda forum just now that at the bottom of the zram section it says that the kernel has to include the module for the RAM compression to work. I'm guessing that we don't have that. That's one thing I really liked about cyanogenmod is that you could change ram compression with compcache. So if I'm right, using those settings in Pimp my Rom, as of right now does nothing? I mean I haven't noticed any increase in ram or anything, but I'm not really sure where to look.
