About this APK

VM Heap Tool (root only) is an app by Open Box in the Tools category. It has no native code, so it runs on any Android processor.

It asks for 1 permission, none of them sensitive.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “mario-gomes”.

Requires *FULL ROOT* (aka S-OFF or NAND unlock) and *BUSYBOX*. Please use Busybox version 1.17.x as 1.18.x compile is broken! Allows to change the Dalvik VM heap size to give demanding applications more heap space (thus decreasing frequency of garbage collection) to speed-up your device and improve overall performance including battery life. YMMV though. Please note that changing the heap size may affect the stability of your device and therefore use this app with care! Special thanks for helping out go to Stephan and Anthony :) TAGS: java, vm, virtual, machine, dalvik, heap, space, speed, performance, lag, cm, cyanogenmod, battery, life
