!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE !!
!! YOU MAY CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE !!​

Prerequisites
Root
Su
Busybox
SManager(Extremely useful, but not required)

Firstly,
big thanks to Sepero for this little gem. Check out his thread to learn about what BootBuddy is, and does.

For terminal install.
su
sh /path/to/bb_install.sh
mv /path/to/00test_app.sh /storage/sdcard0/boot_buddy_scripts/
reboot

You have now ran your first boot script and performed a full app backup at the same time with 00_test_app, Congratulations! Output files can be located on you sdcard.

Test script - https://www.dropbox.com/s/dck1e25yk45g6bw/00test_app.sh
BootBuddy Install script - https://www.dropbox.com/s/o1jeaovlr1u2z04/bb_install.sh(Modified for One Touch Fierce)

!!!WARNING!!!
Stay away from build.prop, init, and kernel tweaks for now. If they work, they might brick your Fierce. You may be able to pull your sdcard and boot, but don't chance it and blame me.

2nd init project

Although this will not cause any harm, it will not function without "/sbin/init"

Tweaks
These are stripped down versions of scripts I've found. They are meant as an introduction to implementing boot scripts. Many scripts have been written and re-written, they're all over the place. If you see something interesting give it a shot, there's little chance of tweak scripts causing any harm if they fail. If you are unsure about a script, post a link.

Please refer to posts 1, 2, and 3 as they will be updated regularly with new scripts, findings, and current working links.

I recommend putting my "boot_buddy_scripts" into yours if you're just getting started with this, rebooting and letting me know what you think. Everything in there will be temporary and reversible, so no need to ask "I'm nervous, is this safe?".

Please run scripts and then ask "Why doesn't it work?". As apposed to asking if every script I post works. Nothing I have or will post is going to do any harm if the script fails, or succeeds(!!!WARNING!!!Unless it's explicitly noted to be dangerous).

If I have linked to an outside source, please read the dev's op thoroughly, and direct questions to op before posting them here. More often than not this will require YOU to do some research, not me.

Lastly, saying "I'm a noob" is a cop out. It screams "I'm lazy, could you just do it for me?". I don't care if you are, and saying so will not help me help you.
However; If you have made the effort, done some research, and are still lost, then feel free to ask away and I will do what I can to help you.

You have tested it yourself correct?

Will these three work for the phone?

• Script for Loopy Smoothness- increase the performance of scrolling and other graphical interfaces by lpy of the xda forums.

• Keeping dual core CPU's at maximum speed (good for devices with a constant power source)

• Increase sdcard and system reading speed with SDSuperTweak by rhino889a

fundamentally, yes, the "concept" will work. But those scripts will not work "out of the box", they'd need to be re-written for our phone. Testing and running them won't/shouldn't 'cause any harm, they haven't on my phone at least.

[rone3]

Thanks. What it pose to do?

 

[DNRDustin]

Nothing crazy; just set governor to ondemand, up'd the cpu refresh rate, lowered the load at which processes are passed off to the next core, and all cores are enabled even when 0 load is on them.

So that should make the phone faster, yes?

seems to be much more responsive with less lag, I wouldn't say faster though.

What exactly does it do?

 

[DNRDustin]

What exactly does it do?

increases r/w speeds of internal, external, and virtual disks

By putting it to BootBuddy?

Sure. Alternatively you could just run the script.

 

[rone3]

What does the mem boost do?

 

[DNRDustin]

For now it clears cached processes from memory, in the future it will do so periodically with set parameters. Also, I'm gonna implement swap and zram.

 

[luisramon17]

Oooh, more stuff to test... <

Here is what I run at boot.

Could you explain what they all do, well the ones that aren't obvious, like fierce tweaker boost and the io boost? And is loopy working on our phones? I looked into it and says its for the s3

EDIT: I looked into the files for alcatel tweaker and it looks like it has the 00set_cpu.sh and the 00sd_boost.sh already in it, am i correct? and would that mean you to take those out before we boot with these scripts?

Yes, 03fierce_tweeker_boot is cpu/sd/memBoost + cacheBoost(Whoa, what could this do? Essentially this just clears app caches). Leaving the individual cpu/sd/memBoost scripts in boot_buddy_scripts would be redundant, but wouldn't cause a problem. IO means In/Out and disk r/w speeds. It's actually a much more efficient script of sdBoost, and will soon replace that block of code in fierce_tweeker_boot.

Please refer to posts 1&2 as they will be updated regularly.

I would also recommend putting my "boot_buddy_scripts" into yours, rebooting and letting me know what you think.

ps. Yes loopy works.

pps. And nothing I have or will post is going to do any harm if the script fails(!!!WARNING!!!Unless explicitly noted).

ppps. Please, in the future, run the script and then ask "Why it doesn't work?". As apposed to asking if every script I post works.

Okay will do, so on to this v6 supercharger I've read about.. That will work with our phones according to another forum and it will work under boot buddy? Or is there another way of getting it to work.

Please post a link, so I know I'm looking at the same sources you are.
