Enlighten me, Plz.

First things first. Great app and is extremely useful! Love it.

Second, I am lost on how to set the settings to get the desired results.

Phone: Nexus S

Kernel: Matr1x v16.5

ROM: Cybermod ICS.... v7.

NSTools Service is ENABLED (for missed call and timeout)

Current Settings:

Status : ON

Led Timeout : 60 sec

Blink Status : ON

Blink Interval : 500 ms

Max Blink Count : 50 times

Ok, here is what happens when I get a chat message in Google Talk and screen is off:

1) LEDs Blink for exactly 26 times and stay ON for around 35 seconds and turn OFF and remain OFF.

2) Subsequent messages trigger audio notification, but LEDs DO NOT blink or light up. At this point if I touch the LEDs, they light up and STAY LIT (I stared at it for 5mins. still same).

This clears when I just press power on and off again (without unlocking).

Another chat message will repeat this cycle.

How do I set this feature properly?

How are you making out in "adding support for tweaking conservative, ondemand, interactive and smartassv2 governor"? I'm looking forward to the new version. :)

I always appreciate your great works.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] tester420:
no, touch wake is off plus, I am not interested in that option that much anyway

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] y3mita:
Another great addition would be adding a scheduler for BLN so we can set it ON and OFF with desired hours of a day.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] y3mita:
And also integration as a plugin for Tasker app so Tasker can use your program to change governor and frequencies set as profiles in your app.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sakisds:
Tasker can change frequencies and governors from it's own. Also you can use "Secure Settings" plugin to set values under /sys to change other options.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] daerragh:
possible bug in new version

i'm using icssgs rc 4.2 with glitch v14 b3 on i9000.

after I had updated nstools to 1.15 in market something happend to smartassv2 governor. cpu spy shows the phone uses only 1000 mhz and deep sleep frequencies.

there's also probably a bug in nstools' smartassv2 configuration because 'sleep wakeup freq' shows 99999999 hz value. once i try to change it the app hangs and I have to kill it manualy.

the phone seems to run well using other governors like glitchondemand because cpu spy shows the phone uses all frequencies.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] lazyGG:

I was able to set conservative parameters :)

Hi arifhn, what do you think about my suggestion?

I updated to 1.15 and I find all those governor options too confusing... I trust in the kernel developer choice and I'd like to have a flag to use governor parameters coded as default in the kernel (to avoid to change some value by mistake).

Good Afternoon arifhn,

I have a request, would it be possible to add a memory management section in the app? To turn ksm on and off. Or any option available by the kernel.

Thank you for all your work on the app.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chalan30:

thanks your your work arifhn. NSTools has become almost indispensable. I would also like to see the above request added to your already great app!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] deetailed:
In 1.15, the individual settings for smartassv2 still is very glitchy. Every time I change a value (I was about to try these values CyberGR recommended), the app would freeze and had to be killed. Sometimes the value sticks after restarting the app, sometimes it reverts to default, sometimes it reverts to a previously set custom value. And if I restart, the scheduler always return to deadline regardless of what it was set as.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] frenccw:
+1

Not sure if it's a problem exclusive to the ROM, but yes it's been the latest discussion on the CyberGR v8 thread and i've experienced the same issue when switching to smartassv2 on the rom as well. After rebooting the phone becomes terribly laggy and unresponsive and forces me to battery pull to flash reset_nstools. (In addition to the scheduler reverting back to default everytime)

Its not ur bug from ur nstool, that why in setcpu we cant change smartassv2 params.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] frenccw:
Do i need to do that while being on smartassv2? Does the phone require a reboot for the governor change to take effect? (If the answer is yes then i can't help because it goes to a near freeze condition upon reboot for me)

change the governor to smartass2 without changing param.

then go to terminal/shell and type that command

He means does it complete the command and return you to a fresh new line to type in a new command? You can tell if this has happened by the user and #> before where you type. If that is not there, it hasn't completed the command.

I don't have this Smartassv2 bug myself, however the Sleep Wakeup Freq of Smartassv2 is at 9999999Hz and trying to change it tends to crash nstools (though the next time i open NSTools it'll be at what i chose). Same series of events with awake_ideal_freq.

Also, sometimes the governor parameters disappear. Often if i scroll down fast. This just needs changing tabs and they'll be back.

Otherwise all good for me. Don't know what i'd do without it.

Thanks for the explanation. I do not get the #> so it does not return to shell

Is anyone seeing an issue where if you set the BLD to

It looks like the phone is trying to wake up but is waiting for NSTools to do something with the buttons. If I set BLD to OFF the phone responds like normal when trying to unlock.

Also, the backlights come back on and stay on (once the device is responsive) until i click one of the hardware buttons and then the backlights go off

I'm trying to replicate a true ICS GN by having the buttons off at all times.

I've tried setting the BLD delay to 1ms and the phone responds like normal This only happens when the Delay is set to 0ms. The issue where the backlights stay on is still there tho. I have to touch the hardware buttons for them to turn off.

i'll explain what was my workaround, in case it can be of any use:

i activated bln and its blinking, with all values set to 0, in ns tools.

unchecked option for missed calls.

in bln app pro, i activated lights but didn't activate blinking

and checked option for missed calls.

don't ask me why or how, but this combination

made gosms lighten screen and unlock it on received sms,

screen then went off but backlights stood still on;

same on missed calls.

[obviuosly, those lights on wake phone from deep idle, but this is another story..]
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] arifhn:
What I mean is the app need to know when the phone receive sms. Then it can set the backlight on. To do this the app need 'receive sms' permission.

Same thing i did for missed call. The app need to know when the call log changed, if there is a missed call then it will set bln on. To do this app need 'read contact' permission
