[APK][2.2+] GLTools (graphic optimizer)

Hi,

This is an app that will optimize your apps graphics. It is simillar to Chainfire's Chainfire3D, but with a lot of features.

Original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2615514

Features:
- Change resolution and rendering bitness in any app, even if it doesn't support that by default.
- Change GPU name and enjoy enhanced graphics even on a noname low-end GPU.
- Take full control over textures: now you can decompress/recompress them (even if your GPU doesn't support that texture format) and resize. Note that decompression feature is available only if you'll install a plugin (internet is required to do that)
- Optimize shaders on-the-fly for optimal performance (the same optimizer is used in Unity3D engine by default)
- Enable MSAA or CSAA in any app to improve graphics quality (make sure that your GPU supports that)
- Measure gained performance with a nice onscreen FPS counter (or you can output FPS information to Logcat if you are a pro)
GLTools is 100% safe if you have a custom recovery installed (and you didn't disable backup in GLTools install dialog), if you'll find it non-working, you can just flash uninstall_gltools.zip in recovery and email viking37 with details (or request a refund).

[SHARE][HACK][3G only] Faster data cellular speed

Hi,

This is a tweak that made by bahathir from xda-developers.

It will speed up your data cellular/packet speed by compressing TCP/IP header (vj).

If your carrier/mobile network provider supporting TCP/IP header compressing, then it should work for you.

Download here

Original thread

Install:
1. Extract the file above with Zarchiver or B1 Free Archiver or equivalent app.

2. Go to the extracted 7z and move the file inside it (options) to:
/system/etc/ppp

3. Change the file permission to:
r-xr-xr-x

or

r - x
r - x
r - x




4. Reboot and profit!

Doesn't work? Simply delete "options" file in /system/etc/ppp and reboot.

Confirmed carriers:
Malaysia - Celcom
India - Vodafone
United Kingdom - 3 "Three" (Maybe it should work with 3 (Tri) Indonesia)

Anyway, if your get data packet speed improvements with your carrier rather than mentioned above, please leave your comments here.
