For the dual booting ... I am on Siyah's Kernel on the S3 always have been and i am using Clockwork Mod Touch recovery but do not have an option for dual booting in the recovery
[Galaxy S II General] droidphile:
This thread is under GS2 forum, the dual booting I'm talking about in the OP posts is about S2.

Gokhan has not implemented dual booting for S3 yet. And he also need to compile a recovery with dual boot options. We will have soon get an app (separate app or options in extweaks itself) to play with dual booting.
[Galaxy S II General] robertobsc:
Hi Droidphile,

Just to tell you to make a little correction:

Siyah changed pegasusq behavior when scaling cpu up.

Now when max_load_freq is greater than cur_freq x up_threshold, cpu scales up to minimum of (cur_freq + (freq_step * policy.max_freq) , policy.max_freq).

He changed it structurally to a conservative Governor type.

He also had done it with his ondemand.

Please update your post with this info!
[Galaxy S II General] robertobsc:
Hi Droidphile, let me ask you a question:

In this time I'm realizing some improvements that can be done in governors. I want to apply the improvements at the source code, and I have the knowledge for that.

Should I ask permission for someone else but the kernel owner? Ex, the guy that created the governor?

Thx!

If you are going to redistribuite: yes

If you are going to use to yourself: course not ;)
[Galaxy S II General] droidphile:
Beauty of OpenSource world is asking permissions and/or giving credits while we improve any implementation :)

After you make improvements in governor code, are you gonna re-distribute it with a kernel or as module? If as kernel, (may be ask permission and) give credit to the author of the kernel you forked from. And either way, you can mention credits to original author of governor, and other people (that kernel dev may be) who worked on it to make it better or to better support his/her device's architecture.
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
Wow droidphile... great topic... thoroughly impressed... its the few people like you who take time to explain things rather than judge others as "n00bs" that make this forum still palatable for many...

Thanks alot on behalf of all the newbies and oldies ;)

[Galaxy S II General] alinawyx:
I had problem with this five lines when I run them in Script Manager:

echo "2500 3300 70 50" > /sys/class/misc/notification/breathing_steps

echo "3300 2500 70 50" > /sys/class/misc/notification/breathing_steps

echo "200" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

echo "1200" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

echo "bfq" > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler

I also tried this:

echo 200 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

echo 1200 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

But apparently I've write permission to scaling_min/max_freq. But both the folder and file had permission 777.

Problem occurred:

sh: write error: invalid argument

Have the following config:

SensatioN ROM v3.5

Siyah v3.5.2
[Galaxy S II General] droidphile:
It's an 'extra space error'. Check again. You will have unneeded spaces at the end or beginning of lines. Use script manager editor itself.

To confirm, you can echo the lines using adb shell. It will work.
[Galaxy S II General] alinawyx:
it's not extra space error. i have already removed all the newline feeds. Only when I removed this four lines, the write error disappears. And yes, i did check with script manager itself even after I removed newline feeds with notepad++.

Inquiry

Thank you for this bro but I have a question. What is the procedure for this? I wanna try this script but I am unable to figure out how. I have set Pegasusq Governor via script.
[Galaxy S II General] droidphile:
I don't get what you wanna say. If you wanna try one of the pegasusq tweaks as script and don't know about creating scripts, you can find some basics in my other thread. (See the link in my sig which says "part1". See second post in that thread - scroll down)
[Galaxy S II General] robertobsc:
Hi Droidphile!

Man I'm missing your knowledge sharing!

Do you use other tweaks? I mean kernel tweaks, dalvik cache tweaks, i/o tweaks, tcp tweaks?

You could create a post with explanation to them all, what do you think? ;)

I'm trying to do that in a Brasilian forum, but there are so many tweaks, and it is not easy to understand and search awnser about each of them. If someone already had and could share some real knowledge about them that would be so nice.

Hi Droidphile,

I tried to implement a script which would change touch frequency from 500MHz to 200 MHz, as you decribed in your 4th post:

LVL=`cat /proc/kallsyms|grep " level\."|awk '{print $3}'`;kmemhelper -n $LVL -t int 14

Unfortunately I've been able to make it working only when I ran it from Script Manager (in real-time). But I can't achieve it after boot, neither as init.d script nor using "run on boot" option from Script Manager. Observed this using SetCPU and Voltage Control. Do you have any idea what would cause this problem? Thanks in advance.

Have anyone seen how Gizmodo "promotes" Note? :

Some frustrated iPhone owner...? How unprofessional..

As others cleared out what the purpose of Gizmodo article (about how GNote users are naive and stupid) is, I decided to remove the link. Sorry for the fuss...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] spekesel:
Linkbait. Don't click and don't feed the trolls. Applies for Gizmodo in general though.

But i guess you cant stop ppl from not getting the idea of the note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] letters_to_cleo:
for me, the article writer is just pure and plainly flame baiting....

why? maybe to attract more readers (and flame baiters) to go their side...

it's just really a waste of time (on my part), contributing to such inane and preposterous remarks on the part of the writer...

[Xperia Play General] Reapman:
Wonder what impact this will have on root
[Xperia Play General] lightningdude:
I like it. It sounds like they're going to straight-up release it for use with Flashtool. With the work that the developers have done in porting roms to the R800x, chevyowner in particular, it should be a really good development in terms of updates.
[Xperia Play General] IE-coRe:
please add cdma to this thread title, otherwise a lot of gsm use will get a shock for their life xD
[Xperia Play General] lightningdude:
It doesn't really pertain specifically to CDMA. It's a general deal, apparently, that Sony is delaying, and aren't releasing OTAs.
[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
Verizon's Firmware is different from Sony's, so I still believe if Verizon does update your devices that it will be OTA, As of other carriers, I don't know.
[Xperia Play General] lightningdude:
The .145 firmware was a UK firmware that supported CDMA variants, which is mostly the Verizon Xperia Play. I believe if Sony could do it then, they can do it again. I'm holding out hope for this one.

[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
We just sore this. So the beta was a plan to keep us semi happy i guess:mad:
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Yeah... but atleast they've told us that if it'll run on 2011 Xperia devices or not so we don't jump in straight and update to Ice Cream Sandwich which then would be a problem for us.

So, I guess all us with a 2011 Xperia model will have to stay on Gingerbread. Well I don't mind as long as everything runs smoothly which it does on Gingerbread.

I am still a unhappy though cause I was looking forward to ICS :( I waited so long !
[Xperia Play General] Weudel:
I had a feeling it was a bad sign when Verizon offered me a free upgrade..... Glad they chose to grease the squeaky wheel.... Still sucks though....
[Xperia Play General] romcio47:
You know what? I think sony tells us bullsh*t... my friend has Nexus S with OFFICIAL ICS and it's perfectly smooth. This phones specs are similar to ours - 512 MB of RAM and 1GHz CPU. There aren't any problems on it so it means having nicely optimized ICS on our phones is possible but it seems Sony are sh*tting pants now and telling us right before ICS launch that it won't be running smooth because it needs more resources. I think they are too lazy, there were always problems with their company if we talk about upgrades. X10 has got 2.3 for 8 months and it's still full of bugs. I'm sure I'm not the only one who afraids of this upgrade and not the only one who's mad at them (look at the comments on their blog). They promised great update and now they made us thinking is there a sense of upgrading to ICS if it's so slow in their opinion. Shame on you, Sony.

EDIT: Besides - Sony will soon launch Xperia Neo L in China. The phone with THE SAME hardware specs as our phones. So that means its ICS will be slow too? What's the point in releasing the phone with "slow SQL, low ram and heavy CPU use"?
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Agreed. Sony are playing with us. They are very very lazy indeed.

So Peed of right now :mad:
[Xperia Play General] Hogwarts:
I always knew ICS was a bad operating system and this is proof of it.

If you want a fast phone stick with COLA rom.

trust me.

ICS is like putting lipstick on a pig.

the whole thing reeks of slow /bloatware and "pretty effects"

you know what i say to that? F*** that S***

I dont give a d*** about what it looks like.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
So, just because Sony can't implement it properly in the Xperia line and they say so in advance, ICS is a bad version?
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
lol true. It's got nothing to with ICS but it's all got to do with the Sony Delevopers !
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
And it's good that they actually highlight these possible issues anyway! I would much rather know this than update blindly and find them later by myself. Then again, what people seem to want is to hear that their device is magical. It sells better indeed.
[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
First thing I'm doing upon getting the official update is to remove Bloat like Music Unlimited ****...
[Xperia Play General] netizenmt:

[Xperia Play General] Mael5trom:
are any of you actually running the ics beta? i find general performance of my phone to be just as fast if not faster than gb, and the browser isnt even a contest its MILEs ahead of the gb browser, i dont understand what ur all whining about?

ics has basically completed my phone, its fixed the few remaining issues i had with it, im ecstatic at the update. overall satisfaction with the phone has skyrocketed in the last 2 days, sure theres a couple of games which are iffy under ics, im sure they will get fixed, my emus work fine, and they are the main games i care about.
[Xperia Play General] beez1717:
So if I correctly understand, I want ICS and it sounds like Sony is covering their butts because they are releasing the update essentially behind the carriers' back, and they don't want them to get upset right away. I'm cool beans with this :)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ijrod21i:
The nexus s is only on t mobile and at&t. If you flashed a nexus s rom, it would more than likely be bricked. Your phone would certainly not use a different network, due to hardware and software differences.

[Windows 8 General] leftspeaker2000:
There should really be no reason that games and most other software should not work in windows 8 as it really is basically just windows 7 with a new start screen UI added over the top. The only thing that could cause errors is potentially drivers which might have to be optimised for windows 8. Windows 8 so far does a good job with legacy applications and the new start screen in terms of interference. Other the that good to know that it works :)
[Windows 8 General] o2neouzr:
it is wrong to say it like that,but i may know what you were trying to say,but the main part of the OS is the metro start menu. desktop is treated as an application to run desktop software,not the other way around. thats like saying the ps2 is just a ps1 with the ps2 added on.
[Windows 8 General] NoSudo:
You would be surprised how different the two are. For instance have you tried to install and use MS Office 2010 on Win8? You would think it would work, it doesn't...
[Windows 8 General] leftspeaker2000:
From what I have read 99% of things that work on windows 7 will work on windows 7 although some will require modification to play nice. Office 2010 works fine with windows 8 as I have tested it.

The analogy that ps2 is just a ps1 with a ps2 attached is actually correct. The ps2 did have a full functional ps1 housed within the console. Windows 8 is built on the windows 7 kernel with Win RT added in at least from what i know, so if windows 8 was using a different kernel and then emulating windows 7 like compatibility mode does for windows 7 with regards to windows xp then you would be correct. I could be wrong though.
[Windows 8 General] theangi:
For what i've experienced, win8 run every single program i've installed (and they are many). It's my main OS used daily since the release. If one ignore the "metro app" it looks like win7, but a way better in performance.

Anyway there's a thread regarding games compatibility/performance!;)

[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
I've noticed that the screen on my Nitro HD seems to use a ridiculous amount of battery, even at ~20% brightness.

With the screen off most of the time, I can get pretty decent battery life:

However, with the screen on, the battery seems to drain at a rate of 1% every ~1-2 minutes, even at low brightness settings. You can actually see it in the screenshot above...the sharp downward sloping sections are when the screen was on.

Is anyone else experiencing similar battery drain from the screen, or is my particular screen defective in some way?
[LG Nitro HD] FlintPNZ:
It is a consequence of using of hi quality ips display in this phone...

My phone is being abnormally horrible today.. This is absolutely ridiculous,i can see the battery bar just draining by looking at it. I took screen shots but for some reason it says incorrect file extension,i don't usually have any problems.
[LG Nitro HD] PMad:
The problem is the ICS rom your using, which im assuming is CM9. Thats one of the problems everybody is having with it, and it will eventually go away as bugs are fixed and updates are released.

I'm expecting it to be fixed CM9 RC1, it may not be, but i dont see why RC would release a non-nightly with such a huge widespread problem.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cmstlist:
The Telus ROM comes with native wireless tethering enabled. It's absent in the AT&T ROM. As far as I can tell, bloatware removal still won't enable it on the AT&T ROM, and the solution most have resorted to is using third party apps which are usually worse for battery life than native tethering.
