Lol, do what ya gotta do matey. I was just ranting in gok's thread lol

Logged using an SGS2 type droid while floating in CheckROM quadrant on a research mission.......
[Galaxy S II General] :
Post 2 has been updated now with more info

Post 2 has been changed and updated with all my recommended governors and schedulers that i use. Check the post to find out more info about the governors and schedulers and plus what are the misc tweaks we use in the configurator app for NEAK. Thanks to Droidphile for the info
[Galaxy S II General] zenosteam:
hi Stifler69 , thanks for this useful thread .some time when playing game i use 2nd CORE apk to set dula core for performence ,and normal use single core mod do you thinks that using always only one core can be stately?
[Galaxy S II General] :
yes it can be safe but why not just use the option were the second core comes into place when needed. so if you are playing a game then second core will be active and give you the performance you need. of course you have to have the right governor to provide you with that extra buzz to give you better performance when playing a game...
[Galaxy S II General] zenosteam:
i f i understand you talk about the option :dynamic hotplug ,this option dont drain more battery then the single core ? sorry for this English :D
[Galaxy S II General] :
ehh well i am using the dynamic hotplug and i have no drain. so if you use that option then the second core will kick in only when you are doing heavy work on your phone. ie playing a game. but again find a governor that gives you the performance that you want which would be lulzactive set the lulz app to tweak the governor to give you better performance instead of battery life and use one core and see the difference. hope i made some sense here
[Galaxy S II General] zenosteam:
you make it :D, thanks for theses infos
[Galaxy S II General] :
no problem matey:)

why whats wrong with it?
[Galaxy S II General] ITRC:
Ok stiff, I'm now playin with neak and settings ...

Wow ... read read and comprehend is the first thing to do :D

I noticed after .1 my phone boot is bit quicker, wich is good, does it make sense?

...
[Galaxy S II General] :
yes it does mate...it shows how good the kernel is;) use conservative governor mate and Noop scheduler and enable the Lionheart tweaks to get the best out of the kernel and see the difference...download the app from the market...It is called NEAK configurator
[Galaxy S II General] ITRC:
Yeah, I have config installed few days ago, also the OTA app. I dl 1.4.1 from there and installed it wich was easy to do :D

Now, in config i checked: conservative-lionheart-lazy governor-lagfree governor-sched-mc and aftr idl mode. right?

I also dl voltage control to have a look at that, but first i need to comprehend what I m doing :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
good good. yes licked those checked. then once you are in voltage control set your governor to conservative and scheduler to Noop. once that is done set your frequencies as well on the next page and then press apply changes. then press menu button and save on boot option and choose the recommended option. reboot phone and that is it
[Galaxy S II General] ITRC:
OK, in GENERAL noop = checked and conservative = checked.

Next page = voltages (its there were i have to set frequences?) Thats the part i am a little afraid :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
yes mate..if you do not want to touch them leave them stock..then save your settings on boot and then reboot and charge your phone
[Galaxy S II General] ITRC:
Ok, test it :D

nice. let me know how you get on mate

that is odd..you are using NEAK correct?
[Galaxy S II General] edwardeutsch:
Yes v1.4.1 :(

Tapatalk SGS2 UV Lionheart
[Galaxy S II General] :
follow the guide first in the OP. if that does not work unistall the app and then install it again set your settings reboot and wait for the phone to load up properly give it five minutes then check your settings. that should make it work
[Galaxy S II General] edwardeutsch:
Nothing...reboot and 10 minutes later settings return to default...

Tapatalk SGS2 UV Lionheart
[Galaxy S II General] :
ehh do not know what to say..are you using thunderbolt scripts by any chance? cause that might conflict together hence why the settings not working..by right it should not have any problems as the kernel the default governor is lulzactive...do you have it on as default with voltage control? and did you disabled lion heart tweaks
[Galaxy S II General] droidphile:
@Stiffler

I'm humbled after reading post 2 :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
Many thanks to you my friend for gathering all that information and putting it into a thread and making it easier for us and other users to get a better understanding regarding kernels. i took the necessary info on the things that i use and put them all together in post 2 to make it easier for people who follow my thread also..

i am humbled myself for having you post on my thread and i just want to give you massive respect.:)
[Galaxy S II General] edwardeutsch:
No my voltages arent on default and no i havent disable lionheart! I have to disable it???

Tapatalk SGS2 UV Lionheart
[Galaxy S II General] :
disable lionheart. then set your settings on voltage control and make sure you have lulzactive governor and whatever scheduler you want to choose. then apply changes. then press menu button and set on boot...come out and sort your settings on lulzactive app and reboot

i have not got this working or testing on ics yet as there are no custom kernels out yet due the kernel source not being released :( sorry..once there are kernels out i will provide settings and tips on how you can get the best out of the battery

Hi, i'm really sorry to be a pest, but i'm currently abroad in Pakistan and running on gprs (it's atrocious to say the least) and market won't load/open for me.

So I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to drop box or PM me the lulzactive app from the market, and also the magic config app, if that is at all possible.

Thank you for any help. Sorry for any inconvenience at stifler - OP
[Galaxy S II General] :
magic configuration thread you have a link on my second post of this thread under Links. search for it and there you have the magic configuration thread. also there is a link here to were you can download the lulzactive governor application as well..
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
That's an idea..... :D
[Galaxy S II General] :
haha go for it...make a cpu app and have your configuration already loaded into the app
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Haha, but what is the end user going to do then? =P

PS. I learned my trolling skills from you... :p

Simone, I had an idea. Your kernel works so perfect with both my MagicConfig and stifler's Lulzactive settings we were thinking if you could link to this and my magicconfig threads from the NEAK thread. This will help a lot of NEAK users reach an even more perfect optimized setup.

What do you think?
[Galaxy S II General] :
I think that is a wonderful idea. But of course I would say that.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Larpeiran:
Hi, the truth is I´m having a little strange issue. First I thought it was a problem in a ROM. but after trying a few LPH ROMs and start removing things, I have concluded that it is the contacts syncro. I´ll try to explain myself a bit better to see if someone comes up with some solution.

If I install any LPH ROM (I tried 5 or 6 different) and I skip the gmail account, I have no problems in access to the contacts app or the phone one, but when I sync with gmail two things happens:

1. I can still go to the phone, from there to favorites and from there to all contacts. In this way, I see contacts perfectly.

2. But If I go to the contacts application The screen locks turns into to black, after that the phone application also crashes and I have to reboot.

I tried to correct permissions. Even with a cache cleaner (read that cleaning the cache of the contacts could help) but I'm pretty sure it will not be the correct way to clean the cache of contacts.

Let's see if someone comes up with a little something becouse I´m running out of resources ...

Thanks and best regards
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ITRC:
If you made a backup you can restore, did you?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Larpeiran:
Yes... I did.

But I´m trying to know what´s the problem is... xD

Thanx
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ITRC:
if you have back up your data etc....... You better flash to root stock, to see if problem solved. Then take it step by step on another rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Larpeiran:
I already did that too. I´m starting to think it´s a g+ contact issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alvespt:
hello,

the last month i've notice that the Google Services have been eating up my data usage, more than 200mb per month in background data, does anyone know why this happen?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _Dennis_:
See pic

Looks like contacts, bookmarks, accounts, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
Um, that shows less than 2mb used. If you are actually having issues, turn off Google + and other services' sync functionality in settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alvespt:
i dont have google+ on, can it be any of these:

- sync/backup of google info

- android market

??? thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
Is the posted image indicative of your data usage? 2mb over 10 days doesn't seem like there is any problem at all. If you want 0, then turn off auto sync completely in settings -> accounts & Sync
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _Dennis_:
The image was mine....to show what the Google services says when clicked as an example of what it is using data for.

He said 200mb in a month....sounds like he has a lot of contacts synced, maybe a lot of other data being synced also (settings etc from what the app looks like it would be used for.)

Edit: just thought of this....how often do you use network location (checkin services, GPS, maps, etc.)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alvespt:
Not a lot like 2 per week, the problem is that the log doesnt specify which google service is using...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alvespt:
Ok I think I found the problem the sync of Google pictures
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gianni:
same problem for me, 100 MB in 1 night.

Data usage monitor in ICS is fantastic: you can analyze all the past by moving the 2 rulers!

About the solution, please share.

I have picture sync only wifi, can it be a late bug?

In case I stopped the syncing, will see what happens

System Update Uses Mobile Data

Hey Guys,

I had the same problem last night - I got a Data Usage warning because Google Services started downloading the Latest System Update!

I guess there's no option to "allow an update over WiFi" Only ... THANKS GOOGLE! - LET ME CHOOSE IF I WANT YOUR UPDATE OR NOT ... idiots...

Anyways, to fix it:

Disable Background data for Google Services completely (Settings -> Data Usage -> Google Services -> Restrict Background Data)

Then go find a WiFi hotspot and re-enable it so you can get your System update.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

C.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jehdesai:
hi guys since last two weeks im experiencing that google services is using about 100mb per HOUR that is shocking ,this dint happen before .I used to have background data services active ,google facebook news twitter sync active all the time even then it used to be hardly 40-50 mb a day.now i have switched the background data off ,but its of no use as the 3g signal bar grays out and I dont get any push messages or alerts ,and when Iam back home the mobile leeches on to my wifi and consumes approx 1GB data a day.out of which 95% is used my google services and 5% by Facebook twitter whatsapp news weather and other heavy widgets and apps.

so i assume there is some issue with google services in my mobile as contact bookmark sync cannot use 900mb (approx) a day .

Im on 4.2.1 , two things, also around two weeks back I had reinstalled the ROM ,dont know how a reinstall can cause a problem and when i goto settings>apps>running apps i can see maps running in background( dont know if its a default thing) even though I have switched off the location access etc and did not use maps since this problem started .

plz help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dzoku:
Did you solve this problem please? i have the exact same issue :|
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 0101011111001:
same problem here... 1GB overnight.. i'll research in it tonight. but i dont think its the updated cuz i'm on slimROM which doesnt update unless i flash an update through cwm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] electro`:
You can't turn off background data for certain apps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santhy:
It is happening to me too, started 3 days ago.

I'm adding some screenshots about it.

These threads [1], [2] talk about the OTA for 4.3 being downloaded by the Google Services app.

Maybe disabling the receiver for the update received as this guy comments [3] may solve the problems.

However, in my personal case I think updating the phone is always a good thing, and 4.3 should come with the Master Key bug fixed, so it's worth a try updating anyway :good:

Cheers!

Same for me

From the 31st August which was yesterday until today the 1st September Google Services used 472MB.

I have no explanation for that as I do not think that it is a ROM update OTA. I am using Cyanogen Mod.

Does anyone have another idea? I disabled Google Now completely now as I thought maybe that is the problem. It was exactly the same last month...same time period. Something seems to happen between the last days of a month and the first one or two days of the new month :-/

Any rom you flash will have a kernel already in it. No need to flash a separate kernel. You can flash a different kernel afterwards tho. Just follow the flashing instructions in the thread.

Also try a different USB cable if your PC won't recognize your phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] intenman1:
All the roms are in zip format. Md5 is used to see if some one edit the file. So the files from roms are already in zip format ...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
every ROM has their dedicated thread, that has a opening post , that includes their download link, which is a ZIP file. Below the Download link in the OP the devs usually leave a set of numbers and letters which is the md5 checksum or whatevs

for example it's usually like md5: 23894238498jsafd89sf

anyways you get a md5 program or app on your computer, phone whatever, and you just check your ZIP file to see if the md5 matches.. if it does then you have a complete fresh download.

flash it and be happy.

I have a feeling the digitizer on my wife's EVO 3D has gone bad and I want to return it to Sprint but I am having trouble restoring it to a Sprint ROM. Can someone point me to a functional download of a stock rom? I am either downloading the wrong one or the link from many of the older posts is dead. The ones that I have downloaded don't seem to be working or I am doing it wrong. At the moment the phone boots to the white HTC screen and hangs there. I am able to boot into fast boot and get into recovery but none of the .zip files I am attempting to load are working. I have tried using an RUU EXE but I keep getting an error about the batter being below 30% even though it has been charging all night while turned off. I have looked through many stickies and how to instructions but I just can't seem to figure it out. Thanks for any assistance with this issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
The best way to return to stock, is by using the leaked HTC tool, RUU. RUU stands for ROM Update Utility.

There are many different ways to handle this situation. The method I would use and prefer, I posted yesterday and am quoting:

Great location for the leaked RUU.exe or rom.zip files contained inside of the RUU.exe is: http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu .

Good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] jschauf:
I have downloaded the RUU and extracted the rom.zip, renamed it to PG86IMG.zip, copied it to the root of the sd card, and booted into the bootloader. Here is a link to a video of what happens.

http://youtu.be/k1rlKUSmp7Y

I don't know if i grabbed the wrong file or if the phone is just FUBAR.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Have you tried to boot the phone let it charge up and snag the 2.17 ruu exe from football's thread in dev section.

I would turn debug on then adb reboot bootloader fastboot into recovery wipe and then go back to hboot and relock the phone a must do ... Then use the ruu .
[HTC EVO 3D] jschauf:
The phone will not boot past the white HTC screen so debug mode stuff is out of the question. If I relock the phone will it let me use the ruu and not give me the under 30% battery error even though the phone has been charging for the last 2 days.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
I would hope so .. to use a ruu you must be relocked. I think you get some funky issues tryin to use it without relockin first I have seen others try it your way and have it say 30% thing.

I would try it . I only know you have to be relocked to use a ruu exe.
[HTC EVO 3D] jschauf:
I will give that a try when get back. Good thing locking and unlocking is pretty easy. I just wish everything else on this stupid phone was.
[HTC EVO 3D] jschauf:
Got it, thanks for the assistance. Once i relocked it the ruu worked perfectly.

To get the best result you need to play with the settings in different situation.

Camera and photograph enthusiasts will do that.

Normally people will just adjust everything to the best to get the best result.

I got 1 question, is the Superfine, Fine and Normal option have any effect on the quality? As Normal will have the smallest file size which seems to be convenience and I don't really see much difference in quality.
