Ok gotcha...why would one want to disable your second core..isn't that what makes this phone so silky smooth in most cases? I still get pretty good battery life and I have done nothing to disable my 2nd core :confused::confused::confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Disabling it wont turn off core 2 it just makes it sleep until needed buddy thats all

With it enabled it keeps core 2 set at a high mhz when its not even needed buddy

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

What galaxy said, mpdecision likes to fight with ktweaker and turn on core 2 (technically core 1 because the first core is referred to as core 0 but that's nerd talk) whenever it wants instead of allowing ktweaker full unadulterated control.

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

Our use a file explorer and add .bak, exact location is in op as I can't remember off hand
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Ok, rom I have already had it disabled then if I'm not mistaken

And yes in system/bin for anyone else that stumbled through here and would rather do it themselves than by flashing.... catching onto this gs3 stuff quick... thought it would take me longer to transition from the epic, so far so good...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JAG50:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Does the mpdecision disable.zip do more than just renaming the file with bak?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

I would think not since that's the only thing needed to disable
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steelers_exe:
i could be mistaken, but i believe instead of adding .bak to the file, the zip comments it out of code. this method was thought of because the other methods would often flood the logcat with errors because mpdecision would be called but was disabled. so commenting out kept the logcat from being flooded.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

You're probably right, I wouldn't have a clue,I could rip the zip open and see exactly what it's doing, but I'm too lazy to download and do it right now... It doesn't matter if it's flooding the log though, unless you're actually trying to fix something from a log, then I'm sure it could get pretty annoying sifting through all those errors... :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

This is true, Steelers is right. Bak method covers some roms without issues, some roms spit mass amounts of logcat errors can even cause a stutter from the amount of them. The file that initiates mpdecision is never called with the

Commenting out method. Adding bak to the executable means the system can think its missing or has no control/access to it, throwing a mpdecision failed to start or lets say we leave mpdecision and setup ktweaker plus have lock frequencies on. With the later you would even get log cat errors this time saying mpdecision could not turn on core 1 and could not turn off core 1. So to summarize all is avoided using the commenting out method decimalman provided. But do not disable mpdecision on a governor with hotplug not built in. In case of that mpdecision is required to turn core two on. Some governors there is no hotplug and mpdecision is not used because some governor leave core two on at all times but sleep mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JAG50:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Thanks guys for all the classification. I also read on the other ktoonsez thread that this disable.zip adds a # in front of the command that loads mpdecision during boot up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

Your welcome. Lol essentially i said that in different words. Yes the disable.zip uses the commenting out method i spoke of involving a # in front of mpdecision line in a script that starts at boot for all of our android phones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] luis86dr:
Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} Ktoonsnative governor and I/O tweaks

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

Did you find a way to make these work without using romtoolbox?

I tried testing your settings, but they won't stick for me either. Any ideas what could be causing the conflict?

When I went back to my previous settings, those stuck on reboot and there doesn't seem to be any script conflicts.

It seems that when the down threshold is set too high it doesn't stick? Also, what have you guys found to be a benefit of using higher down threshold numbers. It's a little counterintuitive to me that a higher level here would save battery. I do a lot of news reading and I'm trying to find good settings for tasks with heavy screen on time. Thoughts?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] castle_bravo:
I'm utterly baffled by this issue, I cannot figure out why settings won't stick on boot with ktweaker but do stick with rom toolbox. Any time I change the down threshold to higher than 65 in ktweaker it won't stick, but Rom toolbox does. This leads me to believe that it's an issue with Ktweaker and not a script, even if i disable the settings in rom toolbox and make Ktweaker set up 20 seconds after boot, they don't stick. This started happening all of a sudden, however I never have tested those settings higher than previously listed. Beats the Sh*t outa me man.

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

Latest settings seem ok, got 2 hours screen time, 2 hours streaming music, th even some video in there all before hitting 50% battery, gonna give it another run or two before I make up my mind, I've got touch boosted on and the phone seems MUCH more responsive. Will keep updated.

Someone had mentioned earlier that setting down thresholds high seems kind of counter intuitive because it will scale the cpu quickly, perhaps too quickly, and cause it to cycle back and forth or make the calculations take longer and that is true. Allowing the cpu lower thresholds will let the cpu finish faster even though it's at higher frequencies, we talked a lot about this way back. But before I make my mind up entirely I'm going to give this a few more runs. I'm already leaning in a certain direction though.

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

RErick just pm me if you want me to try it out. Looks like you have a few testers. :good: thanks Rrerick and Decimalman for cooking up a working build prop zip. Props to you both. Was a bit busy yesterday, was doing a bit of testing for a certain kernel mastermind. Ill be glad to test anything. Most times im right on the threads but sometimes its best to send pm anyway as if im pressed for time i try to atleast glance if i have an pms. Great work guys.

Stick around and you could end up helping out just the same. Cheers, we don't want to hurt anyone's setup so mostly try to test with a few team before unleashing infos or mods. Great enthusiasm :) :highfive: we will keep you in mind in the forseable future.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

What are the thresholds, ill see if i can think if anything. Simple initd might help us like we were talking about. Ideal would be ktweaker re checks settings after a set time after boot and auto reapplies them if any detected to be differing, but as an enabled option so users uneffected or needing to reset voltages dont get stuck at boot or with extra uneeded process of checking settings if they were never an issue with a user.

Castle can you add ktweaker widget and see if the R on the bottom right before entering ktweaker to check fixes the message? Hitting the R button i mean?

Hey mW I should have a cwm zip to stop mp decision pre first boot on asop working gotta test tom. But ktoon said it do sent matter in a recent post dunno if u want it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDriller:
@mw86, EDIT: the zip still does not work. The script I wrote is fine decimalman and myself have both tested the scripts and they work like they should, but the still will not work in recovery. I am currently working on another route, perhaps making a flashable zip that will add it to initd or something. Its the only other thing that i can think of right now. Been beating my head against a wall for a couple of days... need to find a new wall to beat my head against to get better insight. I cant figure it out. Everything works in recovery but the sed command which is why we were getting duplicates. What do you think about an init.d script? so it runs at boot with an if then statement to stop it from doing it over and over again. But as you know, the changes would only take place after the second reboot after the flash, but i think it would work, just an extra reboot to make it happen
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] castle_bravo:
I assume you mean set it up so that only ktweaker runs at boot. Watching the widget during boot I see initial stock settings are present, then ktweaker goes through it's thing and the changes show on the widget. Pressed the R, did not work. Checked which settings don't like to be changed past a certain value.

Down threshold: higher than 65 resets back to stock value of 52, changes Down threshold hotplug back to stock value of 35. Changes occur on reboot.

Down threshold hotplug: higher than 70 resets back to stock value of 35. Changes occur on reboot.

Sampling rate min: any changes to this do not stick, stock value of 10k changes occur upon exiting app, re-entering app prompts change message.

Never did have time to really sit down and try the init.d scripts.

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

I would agree its okay as is because if you boot any existing setup with your original zips its does its job upon first boot anyway. Probably better as is if someone tries moving between governors first setting things up it may be better to have mpdecision till someone is done setting up the rom. Your thoughts are welcome.

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

Maybe after it does the job it deletes itself after the required reboot? That would be perfect. But as you suggest should be just fine too.

We will have to emphasize requires initd and i have the fix initd apk link in OP so good. Nice work.

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 PM ----------

Sounds about right and for me on multiple roms the rom toolbox method works. Even with 85 90 95 99. 96/97/98/99 etc. I think we need ktweaker to have a double check mechanism for those who need it. As, as soon as rom toolbox applies governor settings a second time for ktweaker the resets are fixed and i dont have it happen anymore. I know half if us cant get rom toolbox to do it together either. Feel free to give ktoonsez feedback. Hes open to new infos. I will try to mention it myself too. Id be glad to have your help debugging this woth Ktoonsez.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
Most of the tuners do something like this when they're being set:

if (ret != 1 || input < 11 || input > 100 ||
input >= dbs_tuners_ins.up_threshold)
return -EINVAL;

I suspect that settings aren't being successfully applied, rather than not sticking. The tuners get set one-by-one, so if up_threshold hasn't been increased yet and down_threshold is being set above up_threshold, it'll fail. Most settings will apply on the first try, but the down thresholds will need to be applied again after the up thresholds have been set.

I can see a few ways around this: either remove the "input >= dbs_tuners_ins.up_threshold" check in the governor source (probably not a good idea), have KTweaker apply the settings in reverse order (easy, but definitely not foolproof), or set up KTweaker to re-apply any tuner settings that failed (shouldn't be very hard; check the write's return code and mark the setting to be re-applied). In any case, ktoonsez would have to make a few changes.

As for sampling_rate_min, it can't be changed. It's just there as a reminder.

It's great having somebody around that knows this much about code as you AND willing to share their knowledge, thank you. Once we get that far in to coding I lose my marbles, I'm an amateur at best and even that might be pushing it.

I remember that the stock UT setting is 65 but forget what the UTH is, when I select revert to stock in ktweaker only some things are changed lol. What you are saying about the app setting downs before ups sounds perfect and could definitely be the culprit. I think the best solution would be to set ups first then do a recheck a little later.

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

Nice work guys and yes decimalman explained exactly what i was seeing. Thats why i timed it that rom toolbox applied gov settings a second time after ktweaker did. I agree and that makes three of us that think a reapply settings not matching the backup after a certain time once settings get applied initially by ktweaker. Yes the issue is if we choose to change the order of both down thesholds for example. They like to be in a certain order, but as mentioned we could apply settings again and they dont reset again. Been using rom toolbox only for governor for awhile(well build prop is nicely organized too). And ktweaker for all including governor. Why dont we present our evidence nicely to Ktoonsez in his kernel thread. He is busy at times but very understanding and a very cool guy at that.
