@AndreiLux Ok cool :) the modem interaction worths an additional look then!

BUT I have good news!

cpufreq_smartass2.c will be able to have hotplugging! I did a test module that activates cores and shuts them down and there it works.

In few days I will release the smartass2 with hotplug support for stock kernel.

One thing I saw, the pegasusq does NOT have a high priority work queue to bring the frequency up meaning that other work queues could interfere and actually introduce delays. It also has a complex logic to decide when to bring another core back online and it brings them back one by one.

I would like to have feedback from the community on what should be the bringing up / down behavior for each core for the new smartass2 governor.

I am tempted that upon waking up, to actually bring back all 4 cores at once. It is easier for me, FASTER to be executed (instead of going through heaps of samples to decide if one more core is needed) and is also on the same track with the initial smartass concept, FAST AND QUICK or go slow.

The delicate thing is how to handle shutting down cores. I can make it go back to 1 core and if loaded then bring back all again.

What do you guys think ?

I like this new way in customizing phones :) design by the community, not by what the rom cooker / kernel builder decides and that's it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AndreiLux:
I find it fine and dandy, but the most critical point is why you would want to port such a feature to smartass when you already have pegasus with much more optimal frequency scaling. Also the frequency of which the cores are being hotplugged is incredibly high with runqueue sample rate/times of 50 milliseconds and time of bringing up the cores of only a couple of microseconds, all several orders of magnitudes below usual frequency scaling latencies. We've ported it to the S2 with magnificent results and ditched interactive based governors a long time ago, there is no benefit to it. Exynos is relying on aggressive and optimal DVFS scaling for power efficiency and interactive governors do not suit that too well.

This is fine in theory but does it hold up in practice? The S3 is already considered as the smoothest running device running Android or even the smoothest device bar the iPhone.

Not trying to critique your work but I think your approach into improving things here is a bit flawed and viewing it from an odd angle.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viulian:
Excellent constructive feedback! Thank you,

Let me explain my point of view:

1. First, there are many users that do not feel comfortable putting a custom kernel on the phone. Personally, I do not trust custom kernels even if they come with source code. Theoretically is correct to have the open; but I save a lot of time customizing what I trust (Samsung's stock kernel) than checking all the patches of custom kernels to start trusting them. And is not about privacy and so on, but I need the phone to work and I can't really tell if the custom kernel won't decide to play tricks when I mostly need it to work. So I stick with defaults and try to customize here and there.

2. Second, I have no idea how pegasusq compares with smartass2 unless I see them running - also, since I do debugging and so on, the phone uses different frequencies (mostly plugged and running stuff) and so I can't say if pegasusq matches the time_in_state pattern that smartass2 shows. Too early to tell.

And if it can be done :) why not ? It gives me more experience, it gives people alternatives. Plus, S3 is better than 4s, for sure, but what about the next phones appearing in the next half of year ?

This is just warm up for me to the phone, I have other ideas to dig and hopefully something will come up out of them (at least until the new big market killer comes around and we all jump ship to that one :D)

Any progress on this
[Galaxy S III Android Development] KMino:
None as it doesn't support multicore correctly...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zodiaxe66:
That was what he was trying to accomplish.andreilux and Simone gave him some new pointers.that's why I ask.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viulian:
I had no time to take care of it but I am curious to do at least a bare metal version that will wake up with all 4 core at once instead of one by one which I believe pegasus does.

With the default one, the phone is sluggish for half a second when unlocking - I can see it because the launcher struggles for a bit.

But is true, smartass doesn't support cores activation/deactivation.

I have a rooted KF with GO Launcher EX and Google Play Store installed. I have no problem accessing Music, Video, and Apps from the Kindle Store, however when trying to access Newstand and Books from the Kindle Store it seems as if I am directed to a web version of the Kindle store. It is not the familar grey and orange layout and many mags and books are listed as not available.

Hopeing to find a solution, thanks
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jessical:
That means that Google Play updated your Kindle app and replaced it. Try uninstalling the update in the settings.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paltomare:
Thanks, I have uninstalled the update from the applications section of the KF but still have the same problem. The option to completely uninstall the app is greyed out. Is there anything else I could do?

(Update) After a while this solution did work, is there some way to prevent the Kindle app from automatically updating again?:
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popa_qwerty:
In Google Play Store there is a check box that states Allow automatic updating this is checked by default for the kindle for android. Unchecking this box will stop the automatic updating/replacing of the default kindle fires kindle app. Hope this helps

Hi guys, I ahve a an I9000 with Cyanogenmod 7.1 installed, but it won't allow me to change system file names, I was under the impression the phone needs to be rooted with a custom recovery to be able to install cyanogenmod in the first place, I'm fairly sure it was (I have CWM 5), so why does it say I don't have permission to change file names / delete / edit?

-----------------------------

Ok so I found the problem, the 2 different file managers I was using don't use root permission for some reason, and never ask for it, I used root explorer and it works fine when you load as R/W.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SKLCH:

[Motorola Droid 3] CornholioGSM:
Hi All,

I have one question.

Is possible port Leaked Droid 4 ICS with full motoblur to Droid 3?

Maybe this can fix camera/bluetooth/hw codecs...

Droid 4 has "the same chipset"

Thank You

Tomas
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
No. The problem is the kernel. And with the locked bootloader we cannot change the kernel
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
+1 on above
[Motorola Droid 3] CornholioGSM:
....aaaaaaargh :(
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
This can't be done. As said above the upgrade moves the kernel to 2.6.35.9 to v3.0.8, and the locked bootloader is a problem.

Plus Motorola completely redesigned the interface from GB to ICS. My DROID 4 is running official Motorola ICS and the settings would have to be changed, then it would have to be deodexed, and then signed and tested. With the things being redesigned, the camera may not work immediately, the video may not work and if it was a Port we would have to use CM9 as a base. So video most likely won't work.

It would be filled with bugs probably, so it would be a complicated process.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PrinLeN:
I've a Galaxy Ace flashed with CM7.2 RC1.

I always have the Wi-Fi turned on and also the Mobile Data, so when I'm at home I use the Wi-Fi connection, but when I'm out I have access to the Network Internet.

My problem is that my mobile is often marking the option "Use Only 2g networks". So mannualy I disable this option, but few minutes later the option is marked again...

Do you know why is this happening? Is really annoying cause when I'm out im just having 2g internet...

Note: In my GSM/UMTS preferences I'm current usin GSM/WCDMA (WCDMA preferred), but I also used the GSM/WCDMA (auto-mode), and happened the same.

Hi,

When you guys say its not compatible do you mean it won't let you download from Google Play?

I have loads of Galaxy S4 users and CM users, so I'm not sure why you are experiencing this issue. If you can give me any more information I'll try and sort it!

You could always grab the apk from the website link if you're interested in trying it in the mean time.

WiFi scanning with WiFi off

GREAT app!

Would it be possible to trigger "WiFi SSID Transition" events when WiFi is off with Android 4.3's "scanning always availible" feature? That would be really nice (e.g. only turning WiFi on if a specific SSID is available)
[Android Apps and Games] UndeadCretin:
It should certainly be possible. I'll add it to my longish TODO list and it will probably rise up the priority as 4.3 takeup becomes more widespread.

Thanks for the suggestion.
[Android Apps and Games] enban:
Hi! Very nice app! I played with it just a few minutes, but the list of triggers/actions is impressive! Thank you for sharing your work with us.

If i'm allowed to, I have a suggestion: what about allowing the user to execut a shell script (.sh) on a trigger? Maybe it could be useful for advanced users and low level actions.

Have a nice day.

E.
[Android Apps and Games] UndeadCretin:
You should be able to do this with the Launch Shortcut action using a third party app such as Secure Settings. It would certainly be nice for advanced users to be able to do it directly from MacroDroid so I'll add it to the TODO list.

[Android Apps and Games] UndeadCretin:
Ah ok that makes sense, I've not tested on a device without Google Play installed as I've never before made the apk available via any other means. I'm guessing there is some dependency due to all the in-app purchase stuff that prevents it working. I'll try and look into it and see if there is any easy way to get over this.

Hi all,

Just a gentle reminder that if you like the app, could you please take a few moments to leave a rating on Google Play. It really helps me out a lot and its very hard to maintain a high rating because people are only to quick to leave a bad review if they hit a problem or don't like something.

If you do hit problems then please let me know before leaving a 1 star as I will always do everything I can to resolve any issues.

When I leave a wifi network (physically), instead of the phone recognizing that it's no longer got a wifi connection and flipping to LTE, it thinks it's still on a wifi network.

The only way for me to get my connection back is to temporarily toggle wifi off. Both Wifi and LTE seem to work fine otherwise.

Anyone else experience this?

When a developer publishes a new rom version,

all of the rom's forum titles are changed to the new title.

it takes ages to find the right place for it.

why not announce the new version in the OP but leave the old titles as they are ?

anybody feels the same ? :)

The only thing that generally changes in the title is the latest release date. It helps when people are choosing which rom they want. I personally wouldn't have it any other way and it is pretty typical format.

Q: How can I make Voodo Color settings been saved after reboot?

A: You have to use Voodoo Pro App, because of changes between Gingerbread and ICS, and only the Pro app is updated till now.

Q: Which is the best IO Scheduler?

A: I think SIO and V(R) are the fastest.

Q: How can I enable DeepIdle/Live_Oc?

A: You have to use NSTools. You find it on market. It's free.

Deep Idle Questions:

Q: How can I activate the deep idle stats?

echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/deepidle/stats_enabled

Q: What's the meaning of TOP=Off and TOP=On when I look at the Deep Idle status?

A: When TOP=Off is used, the best powersaving state is used. TOP=ON will be shown, when bluetooth or gps are running.

Q: In Idle status I only see TOP=On. What's wrong here? I don't use Bluetooth or Gps.

A: You have to flash the modded framework-res.apk, because ICS does not fully deactivate bluetooth by default. Even if you never use it.

Q: Idle Stats only are showing Idle, but no Deep Idle. Why?

A: An App is preventing the use of Deep Idle. At first, you should try closing the cam, running in the background. Also rebooting should solve this problem.

Q: What is fudgeswap?

A:

Setting this to a very large positive number will indicate swap ought

to be fully used as free (and will slow the system down)

smaller numbers will allow you to put some pressure on SWAP without

slowing the system down as much.

small negitive numbers will allow the system to be faster at the same

minfree level.

default is 512 to give a very little bit of pressure to use some swap
