Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

We will be trying to compile a lot of the latest infos links and tweaks into the OPs. We will try to give some extta infos on all the tunables. More than likely I wont be able to include to much as a fee threads exist containing the descriptions and I cant take over someone elses material and repost it, the only option is to link and give credit. There are a few links describing the govs and schedulers in post 2.

For example not sure if this was one recently linked but here is a good one.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

No only tried on 4.1.1 and now on 4.2.2. He just made a new version today il be trying out. He has it using an even smaller memory footprint ram wise...

Just needs to be good acrross the board for even gingerbread users and he will.make it into an easy to install and use apk.

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

I've gone 40+ hours with 5.5 hours screen time with my last posted tweaks on ktoonservative with noop as my I/o, that's with STRICT radio usage though. 3g only on for the time I needed it, Wi-Fi when possible.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
That is very difficult question to answer as everyone has different apps and uses their phone differently. Example someone could let their phone sit idle for quite a few days with no screen on time and no data connection.

Also widgets can use battery, one person might use a bunch and another person might not have any. Some rom's have better battery life. As you may have read, screen brightness can make a big difference. Also Inverted apps can help as with our screen black doesn't use battery.

There are just to many variables to say one setup is better than others. You really need to experiment to find what works best for you.

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

I haven't done much testing with io schedulers, but tonight I did a comparison between bfq and noop as screen off schedulers and confirmed castle_bravo's findings from a few weeks ago.

I let my phone sit for 2 hours with zen as my main scheduler and noop as my screen off scheduler. My battery dropped by 6% even though it was in deep sleep 99% of the time. Then i switched the screen off scheduler to bfq, let it go another 2 hours and only lost 0.3% per hour according to bbs.

The drain with noop seems unusually high, but there were almost no wakelocks and nothing different running in the background.

I was running ds battery saver for both tests. I'm going to repeat with zen tomorrow and might also try bfq as my main scheduler.

Thank you good sir!

Its not on the side of the kernel. Roms have scripts that interfer with out tweaks. If you dont want to deal with all of that I would say to stick to a stock ROM.

And how boring would your phone be without being able to customize it. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Checked around 10 pages ago. All I found is the stuff I already tried. So far nothing working. And deleted that 70 script thing. No change. Unfortunately Ktoon seems to be the best compared to agots and stock. Idk how I'd get good life on stock kernel

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Ya, tried that. I could of done it somewhat wrong because it's a little confusing XD as I said in a post earlier, the rom toolbox method just gave me a lot of lag

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Ok so following that, how do I customize my settings? It says make a backup but doesn't say when to restore. Or if I have to duplicate ktoon with rom toolbox

Edit. Got it to stick. But if I was to make any changes, would I have to do anything in rom toolbox?

And how do you guys keep up on the newest "tweaks". All I see is the first page and then 200 pages of clutter and occasional new build.

I'm just looking for a set up that will give me some better performance and battery life.. I've been getting 3 hours screen on max
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bso44:
1) Go into KTweaker and apply your settings

2) Also in KTweaker, "set on boot immediately" and check "lock frequencies"

3) Save a backup in KTweaker

4) Go in to app manager --> ROM Toolbox --> force stop and clear data

5) Go into ROM Toolbox --> Performance --> kernel tweaks --> governor and press nothing but apply at boot

6) Back out

7) Reboot

8) Watch for Super User messages

- KTweaker and all will apply

- KTweaker message says applied at boot

- ROM Toolbox says settings applied

- enter KTweaker and no message should be shown and your settings should stick
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

If you make changes no need to do anything in Rom toolbox, as long as you have it to "set at boot" in Rom tool box, everything you change in ktweaker will also change on Rom tool box, hope that makes things clear on that.

As for finding optimal settings, that's all about how you use your phone... ie: things syncing, widgets running, etc... personally, I use row and interactive and can get 24 hours with 4½ screen on time, but I sync absolutely nothing because I don't need to, I run no widgets except the stock tw weather widget, but I don't let it refresh on its own, if I need roti check the weather, I do it myself...

Wakelocks are also a killer for battery life, you can use the guide in my Sig to figure that one out because wakelocks will be different depending on the apps and settings you use... location settings is a battery drainer, turn it off if you don't need it, Google now also, huge battery drainer... biggest thing, if you don't need data, turn it off, even sitting idle with nothing syncing the radio still uses battery (I personally only turn data off at night because my IMO app has to remain functioning all day and needs data to be connected)

Bottom line, battery life is all about the way you use your phone...

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Sorry but I had to comment on this...

This is actually one of the most reliable kernels available IMO. Tons of options and adjustments can be made to vary per every users liking. If your not comfortable editing your system files, that does not mean a kernel is not reliable. We are here on XDA to get the full potential out of our devices. Quite honestly, there's no way in hell I would be pulling off my battery stats while keeping performance without this setup. There's always options out there, choose what's comfortable to you. As for me, and I'm sure most people following this thread, we couldn't be happier with it.

Just my 2 cents. :p

A lot of the deleting , editing and such is in the rom files not the kernel we are here to give you the most battery life you can get out of this phone and if you want that its going to take getting hands dirty lol yes you can get good battery life out a stock kernel that's just alil boring kt kernel amd agats kernel are the best to use and support by team kernelizers although we cover kt mostly a lot of these tweaks can work agats too n there really won't ever be a reliable kernel you could try but it would need tweaking too even if you gain a hour more on ur screen time or 5 hours more being off charge these little gains goes along ways and so far what seen since we have been doing this for kt kernel I've gotten 2 days out of a stock battery with over 5 hours of screen time now that's just unheard of with a stock kernel or just useing a custom kernel without and tweaks all the devs can do is build the roms and kernels to be stable and safe for everyone to use we are here to break it down even deeper to find out what will give us another hour or two being off a charger and such for this I am done and all this is just MHO

OK, now I'm having problems with settings not sticking in KTweaker, specifically scheduler adjustments. The problem seems to be if I set my screen off scheduler to something different. With my scheduler set to Zen and screen off scheduler set to bfq, the scheduler adjustments won't stick. If I have the screen off scheduler set to the same as my screen on scheduler, it's fine.

The exact one i posted i noticed it not to be true at all. It no longer starts at boot but make sure to go into preferences and also hit disable and reboot once. Then at boot it doesn't start automatically and it only launches when necessary i can still access my gallery music and games. It doesn't disable it like in settings by force stop it doesnt disable it like that but whatever keeps it started a lot it curbs. If you find it running just use the app again for some reasln i haven't needed to hit enable. Just access media and its read.
