About [ROOT] KTweak — Universal Kernel Tweaks APK

Description

Another "kernel optimizer"?

No. Well, yes. However, a "kernel optimizer" is a poor way to put it. KTweak performs kernel adjustments based on facts and evidence, unlike other optimizers with poorly written or heavily obfuscated code. Unlike other "kernel optimizers", KTweak is:

- Entirely open source with no compiled components
- Concise, at less than 200 lines long
- Backed by benchmarks and evidence
- Designed by an experienced kernel developer
- Non-intrusive and completely systemless

KTweak is tested on countless devices and is benchmarked using hackbench and perf for scheduler throughput, schbench and cyclictest for scheduler latency, and iozone and fio for I/O latency and throughput.

KTweak works by applying various tunables to the Android kernel using exposed procfs nodes. Android Kernels require many userspace subsystems, such as CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG, CONFIG_PROCFS, CONFIG_SYSFS, and others.

The performance gain from KTweak comes from reducing the scheduler latency, which translates in real-world usage to visual stutters and lag. Reducing scheduler latency reduces raw performance slightly but improves overall UI/UX.

KTweak also tunes both schedutil and interactive CPU governors to also be aware of the scheduler timeslices. Memory management is slightly adjusted to allow more cached information to stay available for longer, reducing jitter and improving cache locality.

NOTE:
Your logs may show warnings or errors. This is normal. Not all kernels are built the same, so KTweak warns that a certain tunable is unable to be changed.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
