There governors are built into each kernel. The author of the kernel may choose to build in a different combinations of these governors.

So wait for custom kernels. Actually Faux and Franco and others released a few test builds in the Original Android Development Forum.

You should put a disclaimer at the top saying that you didn't actually write the guide... Like that other guy did. Kinda misleading otherwise.
[Nexus 4 General] dsellers2:
Why? I dont understand why people get mad or want to give hell and all he was doing is sharing great information and at the end giving credit where it's do.

He has done everything right in this post, (even naming convention) so cut the OP a darn break.

This was not misleading to me at all. He said it was a guide for kernels. I read it. Then he stated where he got his information. I think you should thank the OP for bringing this information to the forum rather than whine.
[Nexus 4 General] red12355:
Who's whining? Just gave a suggestion.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
OK I'll move the source/credit link from bottom to the top and blow up the font. Or maybe add a tl;dr in front of the links.

How's that sound?

Thank you!

One question:

What do CFQ, DEADLINE, and NOOP mean?

(In regards to SetCPU App, you can choose a governor on the bottom left an then "cfq", "deadline" and "noop")

So, is there any governor that would be perfect for a quad-core device like the Nexus 4? I know it's a stupid question; if there was, there wouldn't be 20+ governors. But not every governor is perfect for every device, right? I imagine that some are made for single core, some for dual core, and some for multi core. And maybe some are made for devices with a better GPU.

I would say I'd like good battery life, but what's most important to me is that I experience no lag. I guess ondemand is perfect then? Not going for the best performance. If there's no lag I'm fine.

Anybody knows how work Slim governor?
[Nexus 4 General] 3857:
Yes it can cause, it depends on your hardware, kernel and your style of using the phone (AFAIK). Also it is good to think what job scheduler you use with your cpu governor.

For me, lulzactive governor for example had caused system freezes, maybe due to my phone is not keeping up with the governor. On my phone I currently use "ondemand+row" combo, which has been fluid and very stable. On the other hand, I've got a better responsiveness on my android TV-box by changing governor and scheduler from "interactive+cfq" to "ondemand+noop". Also, I tried to change governor of my android tablet, but it somehow caused CPU to jam on the top frequency all the time (well, it is a rooted stock Samsung, what would you expect :D).

I suggest that when you try new governors, untic box "set on boot". So if your system freezes and need to reboot, then you are again on default settings. Use set on boot option only when you have tested governor + scheduled combination yourself :) And CPU-Z is good app to monitor your cpu frequency that it is working correctly (not e.g. jam on high frequency).

custom video boot animation on Sprint galaxy s3 do anyone know how to do this

I am trying to take a short video and turn it into my boot animation. Can this be done?

Help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
It can be done. I'm not sure what the easiest way is, but the way I'd do it is with ffmpeg. If you don't mind reading a LOT of documentation, ffmpeg can handle reading, cropping, resizing and outputting as a series of PNGs all in one step. Most video editing software will let you do the same thing, but you may need to crop the images afterward. Once you have a bunch of PNGs, there's tools like this (or you can do it yourself) that will turn it into a boot animation zip.

As far as I know, there's not an easy video-to-bootanimation tool, but there are more thorough tutorials scattered around.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nadats31:
Hi Guys,

I will try to make this as short as possible. I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S3 that was rooted and running the liquid smooth rom and activated on Simple Mobile. It worked great for a little over two weeks, but when my wife went to use the phone this morning it would say "Not registered on network" when she tried to make a call. I thought this may be a carrier issue so I contacted Simple Mobile. I started looking up this issue online and found that many people were in the same boat if they had either lost their IMEI or had a blocked IMEI. I got a little worried since I purchased the phone on Craigslist so I called T-Mobile. They confirmed that the IMEI is clean and can be activated. I decided to unroot the phone and return to stock. I used ODIN to flash firmware build IMM76D.T999UVALEM. Initially it got stuck on the boot screen so I did a factory data wipe and all was okay. I also reset the binary flash counter prior to reloading the stock firmware. When all was said and done the phone booted back up and the device status was back to normal and all seemed right in the world except there was still no voice or data. I thought maybe Simple Mobile just sucks so I went to a T-Mobile store and activated the phone on a prepaid plan with unlimited data. The device powered up and immediately sent a voicemail notification, but did not activate. Under status I have Network: Unknown, Mobile Network Type: Unknown, Service State: Out of Service, My Phone Number: Unknown, ERI Version: Unknown. The IMEI is there and correct.

At this point I have taken this to the edge of my ability and I could really use some advice. I fear that this may be an issue with the device and if so I do not know what recourse I have to get it fixed under warranty since I bought it used. At this point I will try anything and all suggestions/help will be greatly appreciated!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] HajmeR:
Check your apn settings. Go to settings -> more settings -> mobile networks -> access point names. If you're still on t-mobile then press menu button and select reset to default. If you're on someting else find apn settings for your network and copy them in the right places. Besides that and hardware problem I don't see any other reason, but I'm not an expert on that and I think there are people who will have some ideas on how to fix it.

Good luck
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nadats31:
Hi Hajme,

Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention above, but I did verify the APN settings and everything looked good. The odd thing is that even if the APN was whack, I should still be getting voice. I contacted Samsung and luckily they are going to take it in on a warranty claim, so hopefully they can work it out.

T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 - Searching loop problem for Mobile Network

I am having the same problem this morning! I have unlocked the tmobile sgs3 and i have been using the phone for the past three months using another carrier sim. I searched all the forums and couldn't fine a solution for it! There was no problem with the carrier sim, cos I tried it on my other phones and it worked fine. I have flashed cm10.1 nightly build , aokp , stock ics rom and stock jelly bean, still having the same issue... I have even reseted the binary counter, still no use ! I went into service mode using *#197328640#, found that the carrier name was "unknown". There was no no problem with the antenna, I could still receive other carrier signals . The thing is it does not register , It keeps on going in a search loop! The product was purchased from T-Mobile and is unlocked! What should I do?

[HTC One S] alterman666:
Hello guys,

I'm experiencing something bad with my HOS. Briefly, yesterday morning I plug the phone from charger at 06.00 am. Play with it for a while and then go to work. Used it at work for a few phone calls until 10.00 am (so 4 hours on fully charge battery). Then at 10.00 am I went into a meeting and left the phone out of my sight for 20-30 minutes. When I came back from the meeting I realize that the phone was closed. I try to open it (power button) but nothing. Press power for 10-30 seconds with volume down - still no effect.

Then I took the charger (the original one that I always use to cherge it) and plug it, left it for 2-3 minutes and press power. The phone starts but all I have is the white screen with HTC logo and if I press the power button + volume down the phone goes into bootloader. That's all I can do with it for now.

I have stock rom, bootloader is locked and I never try to root the phone. Is it any chance to repair it by myself or I have to sent it to the repair shop.

many thanks in advance.

try holding the power button for 10-15 seconds, until all 3 buttons light up and the phone restarts itself. Let go of power button when after 3 buttons light up 3 times and see if that helps?
[HTC One S] alterman666:
I've already do that. When I press power nothing happen. I'll have to plug into charger, let it for 2-3 minutes and then press power. The phone starts, white screen with HTC logo appears and then phone restarts and same white screen and .... again and again. If I hold volume down key then the phone enters into bootloader,I can use the options clear storage or factory reset, and restart the phone then same thing happens (white screen with logo and restart by itself). All these only when pluged. If unpluged nothing happen when I press power button.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Might sound silly but have you charged it for more then a few minutes because last time my phone died I had to charge it for about half hour before it would boot right.
[HTC One S] alterman666:
I'll try this, but is strange if the phone run out of battery since it was used for about 4 hours since fully charged. Will be back with a feedback. Thanks for the tip.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Ya that's why I said it might be silly but still give it a try. I have seen odd battery drain where it could drain it in a few hours.
[HTC One S] alterman666:
I say it's strange because I was on stock rom with same installed apps for about 2 months. Anyway the phone is now charging and I see something different with the led for charging as it turns orange as it should be when charging. Yesterday, when I try to start the phone,plugged in, the led was blinkering somehow. I'll be back with feedback later, I'll let the phone charge until led turns green.
[HTC One S] alterman666:
Good news, after keep it to cherge until the led turns green, the phone boot up. I perform a factory reset immediatelly and an sd card clean up and now I'm installing my favourite apps. I'll be monitoring close my phone for the next days to see if sudden battery discharges happens.

Many thanks for your advice @darknites:good:

I'm rooted, on JB from the OTA and I'm trying to unlock, but I've been getting the message "Failed to unlock your device, please try again later" when trying to unlock. I've read some scattered posts in various threads where others have had this problem but I haven't come across a solution. In most cases, what others have tried include, factory reset, downgrading to ICS, temp unroot and contacting asus to get their serial number "entered into the system". None of these things seems to be a magic bullet. What can I do to unlock my Infinity?

Yup

Just keep trying the unlock.
