[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
1. rasbean jelly does not have tablet ui

2. set the cpu at top speed for the highest and top speed for the lowest.

3. i prefer ondemand/deadline. performance governor is terrible.

4. turn off fsync for higher i/o(in the filesystem or with a cpu control app. i use the trimity kernel toolbox. and run the ext4 mount script for extra i/o(the trinity kernel toolbox automatically runs the ext4 mount script when opened the first time, but you need to disable fsync manually).

5. go to the devices main settings, developer options, enable force gpu rendering for a higher 2D score.

6. i have a wifi only n7, 16gb.

7. youll need an app to disable tegra hotplug and enable all four cores if you want to go that route. the kernel would have to support it. trinity does, im not sure about motley(i think it does too). many benchmarks dont toll the quadcore enough to get accurate results. so you have to make sure that all 4 cores are used.

8. you can overclock or underclock the gpu with trinity kernel also.

What file in system i have to edit to run a command when its booting. I remember it was hw_config.sh in GingerBread ROMs... But i cant find it now...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you need init.d files to run scripts upon bootup. not all roms support init.d scripts(rasbean doesnt), but there are flashable mods to give roms init.d support.

I don't want to piss you off but can you post here your antutu benchmark screenshot where i can see the detailed score? I want to know where my nexus defeats coz i have only 13500.:D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
lol @ pissing me off.. :angel:

my guess is that youre getting thermal throttled. find a way, like a fan, to cool off your device while benchmarking(dont stick it in a fridge as condensation in the device can ruin it). heres my last antutu..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
620Mhz? LOL :laugh:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
I have pretty same score. Only the CPU integer, floating point, 3D is lower. Probably because you're runing at 1.7 Ghz. Right?:cyclops:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yea, 1.7ghz. with tegra hotplug disabled, all 4 cores running.

btw, a while back there was a 2ghz kernel which almost no one could run at 2ghz. i hit 8998 in quadrant, almost 9000!

45° that's is how hot your nexus? Mine never go higher than 37° :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yours gos hotter. are you looking at cpu temp or your battery temp? 37C is body temperature, its not hot at all. your cpu will get hotter even, 45C is cool for the cpu, especially when pushing it. i can easily get it to the cpu shutdown temp if i want to, cpu shutdown is at 100C. cpu temp you need an app to see, battery temp is listed in settings.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
What app can show me the CPU temp? I can`t find it ...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i use trinity kernel toolbox, it has a cpu temp widget and a cpu temp in the notification bar. it changes constantly, as you push your device. there are probably other apps that do it too, but not many.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
What does the Force non-boot CPU function in Trinity kernel toolbox do?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
on which device? its not available for the nexus 7. on the galaxy nexus it disables/enables one core. you usually dont want to use it on the gnex, as disabling one core drops performance immensely.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
what is the safe range of CPU temp.?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
cpu will shut itself down at 100C, to prevent damage. at before that, itll hit thermal throttle, which will lower your cpu speed to cool your device down. thermal throttle is 75C in the default kernel i believe, many custom kernels raise thermal throttle. its 85C in trinity. really, anything lower than that is safe. even at 90C, your device wont stay there long. youll only get that hot while pushing your device really hard(benchmarking) or when pushing your device and plugged in. pushing the gpu hard will also heat it up.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
OK I'm gonna do a test: i will play Dead Trigger and i will be monitoring the CPU temp. BTW. what is the best governor at all for good performance and good battery life?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i like ondemand/deadline(best for trinity kernel, trinity uses a tweaked ondemand).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
What do you prefer interactive, or ondemand?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i prefer ondemand. but with other kernels besides trinity, id lower the sampling rate to 15000 and up threshold id raise to 98% to make it usable.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeFcOn:
How can i change thoose parameters of governors?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
another cpu control app. some of the free apps will have the governor options. tkt doesnt include it at the moment, but will.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taufiiqqq:
I am using otterbox defender and i really want to switch to Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible Revision 3 or Cruzer Lite Androidified A2. Can anyone who has used both recommend me which one to buy? They both has good user reviews in amazon and um really confused!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] endigo85:
Although both are TPU cases, they're actually pretty different feeling in your hand. The Diztronic has two textures: the front is glossy while the back is matte. But this matte feels really, really good. It resembles really fine grit sandpaper, and gives you some grip unlike most matte TPU cases. For some reason, the clear and smoke matte Diztronic cases don't have this feel.

The A2 case obviously has a giant Android logo on the back. The TPU would be a lot more slippery if it weren't from the grooves created by the logo. Anyways, the sides of the case have noticeable ridges that provide excellent grip when holding.

I prefer the Diztronic one due to the simple design and excellent hand feel. The A2 case is also slightly bulkier than the Diztronic case and has smaller port cutouts.

Hello this will be my first post, although I have been a forum lurker, I have been doing it for awhile. Now my problem is that I want to switch ROM's but i have had problems in the past, I successfully rooted and unlocked the Bootloader with Xfactor exploit. My first time flashing a rom on the hox, I did something wrong and found out that when I did my nandroid backup it failed (Yes I know i'm ashamed I made such a nooby mistake). Luckily I had a friend who knew his way around phones a little better, and flashed it to Nocturnal ROM, It's nice and all but I have had my eyes on Paranoid Android. This time I know for sure I have a nandroid backup and I have a copy on my computer, but I want to make sure there is nothing else wrong if I try. Can I get a line of steps to sort of follow? I did flash ROM's on my HTC Inspire, but it just isn't the same case her obviously. I know you have to seperate the boot.img from the ROM files but that is where my last ROM flash screwed me over.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DESERT.TECH:
Try using viperxl Rom , its awesome. If you use twrp there is no need to flash img as twrp does it auto for ya ;)

Which HBoot are you? If you are on 1.14 you need to flash the boot image either via command prompt of flashgui.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Fastboot is easier in my opinion.. Download PA on your phone.. Plug it in and COPY rom to your computer. Extract rom, drag and drop boot.Img inside your adb/fastboot folder. Enter Fastboot on phone. If on windows 7, right click on adb folder and choose "open command prompt here"

Command is fastboot flash boot boot.Img

Success. In bootloader, choose recovery. Flash entire PA zip, flash gapps.

Profit!

How does viper get around fastbooting kernel?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Alphacall2:
If Viper has made it so you don't have to flash a boot.IMG they have made a pretty big breakthrough and I'm sure that would of been news, just saying. Anyways on topic, is there any other precautions I should take before trying to flash it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ToxicWaste:
?? It's true, no need to flash boot.img separate with Viper or CleanRom. Just go into twrp, wipe everything and do a factory reset INSIDE twrp and then flash. Follow Aroma Installer and choose your options.

Those are the only "precautions" I'd say. Obviously ensure you have a backup on your phone to go boot from in case there's an issue. That would be the best precaution to take.

I think you guys are mistaken a little with hboot 1.14 it just doesn't change your kernel when you fkasha new Rom so of course if your going from the non jb viper to clean Rom you won't have a problem since its still a sense kernel but going from aosp to sense is a different story if you were to go from aosp to viper either viper you would have to flash the boot img and same with viper jb to a non jb sense Rom....do you see how that works?it just doesnr change your kernel and if your going to a similar Rom you won't have a problem with it it'll just stay on that kernel since it works with that Rom
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Ics version of Viperxl will flash the kernel for you automatically.. 2.4.0

Jellybean version 3.0.0 does NOT flash it for you, it has to be done via fastboot or flashgui app. It is an alpha version, turge will include this is further builds but he's working on ironing out the wrinkles...

A few tips for 1.14 hboots.........

If you UPGRADE a rom, you usually won't have to flash boot.Img separate as it will most likely use the same kernel as the previous build, but it's always best to ask before flashing just in case they modify the kernel

If you switch from aosp to sense, or vice versa you WILL have to flash it separate. No matter what.

Or you can boot into Linux and downgrade your hboot :p but that's not for the faint of heart

Personally, I'd flash kernels through fastboot as you can pretty much guarantee it will stick and be good to go
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] crisjed:
I have a question, so I'm pretty new to android scene with kernals and roms but I have a basic sense on how everything goes now. I tried the new CM10.1 nightly with JB4.2 and it was great but still unstable for a daily driver. I switched to cleanrom and everythings fine so far but I had some problems with my SD becoming unmountable but I ended up just reformatting it which I don't know if it was a smart idea or not. Luckily, nothing bad happened yet and everything seems to be working fine. I have CleanRom 5.1 and Element 3.2, underclocked and undervolted. Realized that I didn't need this much battery so I'm planning on checking out Viper. (13 hrs and I still have 75% haha)

Problem is, since I switched from an aosp back to a sense based rom I want to ensure everythings fine. I want to flash boot since I don't remember doing it once just to make sure viper installs nice and clean. How would I go about doing this? I pretty much know how to flash it in cmd etc, I just need to know where to get the actual boot.img file and which folder should I place it in. Thanks. Better safe than sorry.

As a side note, between switching roms I did a complete wipe. Just didn't flash boot.img. Oh and I have hboot 1.09 and am using TWRP 2.3 Recovery.

thanks again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
You good to go bro! Hboot versions 1.09 have no bounds. You can flash roms, kernels, splash screens, radios etc. There is no need for fastboot whatsoever as long as your on 1.09! :thumbup:

Don't worry about formatting your SD.. I do it every Sunday night to keep my phone on a diet LOL.

I always install roms clean, so I wipe everything in twrp and never do a titanium backup or restore to ensure there's no bugs being caused by me.

Hope I helped lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] crisjed:
Okay cool, thanks! installing viper right now, any other, roms, kernals etc you want to recommend. Im pretty new and I feel like there's a whole lot to experience!

I'm on Viper 2.4.1 with ElementalX kernel and its awesome, stable and fast. Battery life can be optimized with the built in CPU manager or something like SetCPU. You can get kernel suggestions right inside Venom Hub app on your new Rom.

Hey I thought I would stop by to say that i successfully flashed paranoid android, one problem the keyboard keeps crashing. What are the solutions for this? A simple cache clear just isn't doing it.

Edit: Scratch that alot of things are crashing. help?

Super mega edit: I learned that i had the incorrect gapps downloaded I flashed the correct ones and it is still happening so that is out of the question
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Sounds like there could be a few problems so were gonna go with the most popular ones lol..

1. Sounds like you didn't wipe everything in twrp before you flashed. Make your you always wipe cache, dalvick, factory reset, and system. Then flash Rom followed by gapps.. then reboot

2. Have you restored from a titanium backup? If so, make sure next time its ONLY user apps.. if you restore system apps and data, think of your system settings from one Rom clashing with the system files from your new Rom. They won't play nice together. Only backup and restore user apps+data

3. If the above steps were taken correctly, I would delete the Rom.zip from phone. Maybe download using a different browser. Chrome browser is notorious for corrupting roms.. you could have had a bad download

Try one of those pixel fixer apps in the Play Store. They strobe the whole screen or just an area and try to wake the pixel. if that wont work you should just exchange it if possible.

If the Pixel is a solid color (green, red, ETC) it is simply a stuck pixel. Sometimes they recover on their own. My Nexus 7 has 4 of them, as well as a neat screen defect where the top and bottom of the navigation bar has a horizontal line which shows up as 2 black lines when its in portrait mode. I would highly advise against putting any pressure on the screen to try and get rid of it, these screens crack very easy.
