Seem like an irony that they allow adjustment for all the other colors but not the one you want! Guess you must be searching high and low for it but don't you think that you can achieve the same result by lowering the overall brightness and increase the red and blue back to their original level?

By the way, it is recommended that you use Stweaks that comes with the kernel. Cheers,
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dairinin:
Man, I do not know what "leftovers" you are talking about. Once process is terminated (by OOM killer or by user), its mappings are released - kernel simply does not concider them "used", so there is no way a page being markerd as used if owning process not exist. If you are talking about memory leaking apps, then their pages do not belong to cache, and dropping it will not help.

Pagecache (inactive file pages in the first place) is different thing. Unlike anonymous memory, which is not backed by files, clean file pages can be dropped any time, and kswapd thread actually does it every time to keep enough free pages ready at any time (/proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes).

You say that getting file from flash instead of ram is not important - but I do not think that is entirely true. Once page is in memory, getting data from it involves only loading some cachelines. But once it is not, all mm power comes in action to recover from page fault, i.e.

1. Allocate enough pages

2. Clean them (zero fill) entirely (one page is 4kb)

3. Get data through controller (wake up bus and controller from powersaving state)

4. With respect to readahead, you will get, say, 128k of data, that is 32 pages

See, this operation actually will wake lots of devices from sleep. Also there will be a delay between data request and data availability in reponce, because flash device, although fast to respond, is not so fast to read data. This may be not so important for apps with small dataset, but, say, some kind of maps app can become sluggish, if you drop page cache while it is running. Also, pagecache actually includes cached libraries and binaries (busybox, for example), so every starting app will have to load them again - and THAT is not so fast as you think.

I think, all problems with phone become sluggish is about too many applications running, but not the pagecache.

The cost of operations in script is your choice, I just had bad experience with forks and that experience taught me to try to use shell builtins as much as possible, and I simply want to share it ;)

---------- Post added at 03:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 AM ----------

Uhm, I have read the comments in git. I agree with your point. Also, writeback is different thing imho. Dropping pagecache will not automatically clean them, only fsync will. Also to add, pagecache is managed in LRU manner, so in the end it will contain only what is actually used. I vote for not killing pagecache, as it is our friend :)

if one of them boots, then i will know from where to start, without logs, its can be one commit out of 200 that mess all the fun, and maybe its making problems to us all, but still boot, so its good to find it.

Hi dori,

As said I tested out randomly few versions

4.1 series, 4.0, 3.8, 3.1

And 3.1 version works on Slim ics.... :)

Maybe it helps you to fix the errors now

mostly thing works fine, i use it on xxlq5 and works as butter

•Debug and find more code errors! (always some thing new )

•Add cool features and tweaks

•Extend battery life.

•And boost performance.

You forgot add JB :rolleyes: *Joke*

160 Mhz = 850 mV

200 Mhz = 950 mV

267 Mhz = 1000 mV

Those are pretty stable for me. Maybe I need to test more. Can you suggest any heavy games?

Sent from my GT-I9100 using GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jgcaap:
200mhz aren't ment for 950mv. It'll freeze your phone if you play to long. In other to test stability this you have to insert as max 200mhz. You will see your phone soft reboot the instance the 3d game starts. Same goes for the others. Gpu is already the minimum possible

But test the games for 1 to two hours

Heavy games: nova

Edit: seems to work fine as you said. I cannot test lower frequency since I cannot limit the 160mhz speed or 100mhz so I don't know if works

Well that's exactly what I'm taking about, maybe I've been not clear. I like the feature of the cortex tab force WiFi off... when I enable it, the WiFi switches off immediately when the screen goes off, for me it would make more sense to switch it off by the cortex process after maybe 5min, or when there there is no traffic. I remember there was a similar option in juice defender, but I don't use juice defender anymore... anyway maybe it's not a good idea to ask for things which are solved already by apps, sorry.

we can tune things that exist from base.

and use STweaks Extweaks not supported any more for this kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
Well, i see your point, OK then lets go back to no page cache clean.

i will remove the job.

and about some heavy app in use and clean cache run and make it sluggish,

well this will never happen, job script check cpu everage usage, and if CPU is used, then job loop and wait till CPU is idle.

and then clean the cache. (heavy app, closed and USER has left the building) :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
this feature is doing exactly what it's stands for.

force WIFI off on screen off.

from posts above i see the point, that if your screen timeout and you didnt want that wifi disconnected in sec!

i will add timer from instant to 5min with default 1min. so you can tune it or just turn the screen on in time.

about traffic, this is too much, use PAID apps for that :)
