yeah i had it @2.89 but then it boots with that and people are complaining..

ill try raising tomorrow and see in what frequencies it boots..
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
That is why I put back the scaling line in the init.rc

That way it boots at 2.65 but supports 2.WTF

# Force stock max frequency during initial boot
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2649600
[Android Apps and Games] friedrich420:
im sorry to be repeatedly negative but when i had it up to 2.89, i had that entry in my init.rc and it would still boot at 2.89

Ill try both again though tomorrow because that was 6-7 versions ago...
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
I dunno. I never go above 2.7 anyway lol.
[Android Apps and Games] friedrich420:
I did the changes.

The app is perfection!! Its complete imo.. the cpu values will go up to 2.89 after initial boot if i dont set them with sku. But once i set everything with sku it all sticks :)
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
I still need some additional hardlimit changes. I left out the intell-plug touch boost intentionally lol. I guess I should add it with the condition that hardlimit doesn't exist. The two values tend to fight.
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
It probably seems like what should have been a very quick fix has taken entirely too long. There is good cause for that.

I reworked how values are verified to make sure old preferences don't corrupt the settings and made sure the kernel version is available on every page. There have also been a number of stability fixes to make sure it all keeps working.

Just a heads up. On the upcoming update, it is recommended to select all of you options and apply at least once. Even if they already come up correctly, select them and apply to flush the preferences.
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
Included the kernel version on every page to make it easier to remember.

Next on the agenda: stats in the widget
[Android Apps and Games] friedrich420:
Just beautiful!! :)
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
Thanks. Sadly it's not as pretty on my Nexus 5 haha
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
I found a few more spinners not properly setting on boot. Another update will be out shortly.
[Android Apps and Games] ReeF666:
Hey mate, fantastic work on the app it's running like a charm and the settings are stickier than... I'll finish that there.

Could you explain all the functions under Thermal? I hate playing with things I don't understand.

And is there a way for me to globally edit the voltages on SKU for AEL?
[Android Apps and Games] dingolino:
Hi

in the Core Page I guess the CPUs are numbered down from 0 to 3?

Could you you add the the cpu number for easier identification?

Is it possible from a technical point of view to have your each cpu a different governor?

After all the discussions we had that only cpu 0 has the right setting I was thinking myself to play with different governors for each cpu (ok, mainly cpu 0 and the rest) for addressing a good balance for battery and performance.

My idea is to have for cpu 0 a performance governor and for the rest a more conservative one.

Just a theoretical thinking, so please don't “kill“ me for having a idea... ;)

Best regards

dingolino

[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
The top of that page is hotplugging and the bottom is actual thermal. I was running low on space for tabs, so they are pretty close in terms of what they do, but they are two different parts in most other apps.

Hotplug profiles determine how the cores are handled, whether they are kept on more often or offline more often.

Hysteresis and Threshold are usually good to leave default unless you are having issues. I am not entirely sure about how to explain the exact purpose of each, but it has to do with how the core responses are determined. On a nexus 5, the defaults are much the same with threshold at 722, but the values AEL has are based on the Note 3, which is much closer to a Note 4.

Touch boost is similar to the hardlimit version but in that it adds an extra speed boost when using touch, but for kernels with hardlimit, this is just something to get in the way.

Thermal is a lot more straight forward. Core temp is the temperature of a core, while frequency temp (i believe) is the temperature of the processor as a unit. Setting these values determines when it is too hot and you should be throttled or have cores turned offline to allow cooling off.

The poll time is how frequently the temps are verified. This is usually good to leave at default unless you are experiencing rapid heat changes (lower the value to attempt to respond faster) or barely use the device (raise the value to do less work)

On the Voltage page, scroll all the way to the bottom. "Batch Edit Voltages" is global editing. It seems after the switch to the tabs, it may not be kicking on properly, though. I will look into it.

They are not numbered because the application supports anywhere from 1 to X cores based on the internal device's core_number value, but then verifies them before printing to the screen. There is a slight issue where on initial load it is not removing the extra spinners for cores that can't be configured until you hit apply.

Depending on the kernel you are using, most only allow setting cpu0 and pass the values along to the rest. That means there is no place for a second (/third/fourth) governor to read and write values. If that place does not exist, the buttons do not appear.

The whole interface is dynamic. I know that apps like FauxClock have dynamic categories, but it was obvious from a lot of the discussions on the Note 4 that the content in the category itself was pre-packaged. This app is almost entirely dynamic. For the most part, what it presents you with is based on what your kernel had available.
[Android Apps and Games] ReeF666:
Thanks for the epic explanation, it's not often people take the time to explain functions so well.

On the voltages page I had a feeling batch edit may do that, although the button doesn't actually do anything for me, it simply depresses and nothing happens after that.
[Android Apps and Games] oneandroidnut:
what happen to your kernels for the note 4 man????
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
It's still there, but I am wrapped up in class projects and had to hit pause. Pretty much every issue is already covered and with the thread closed, it saves everyone the frustration of posting / answering the same stuff over and over until the next version because all they can do is read the thread.
[Android Apps and Games] patchmonkey:
Hey - sorry to bother you, but I can't imagine what the answer is here and I've reviewed the entire post...

I flashed the TMO kernel (12/15 edition) on my TMO Note 4. Had some strange errors, so I went back to Stockish. Since then, I can't access most internet functions - for example, Chrome and XDA cannot connect, although Feedly, YouTube, and Play can. Do you have any ideas? I've been at this for a few hours and no solution (and I'd prefer not to reflash entirely without knowing what happened).

Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] twistedumbrella:
Change the TCP avoidance setting
[Android Apps and Games] patchmonkey:
Thanks. It didn't seem to have any effect, so I ended up just dirty flashing the same ROM I was running at the time. That cleared up the problem.

EDIT: Also, made a donation through the app because you were kind enough to respond quickly. I'm still having a lot of trouble between the app's settings not sticking, or changing randomly with deported on the note 4. I'll wait for you to re-open the kernel thread to discuss, though.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostyjack:
I've got a Galaxy Tab from when it was release on Orange UK due to at the timew being Staff there and got it for a good deal.

The problem I have is that OUK Tabs only go as far as Froyo and now my apps are starting to not get updated due to the old OS.

So what I'd like to do is turn it into a gereric UK Tab so that I can install the standard Gingerbread firmware. At the moment, I don't want to start playing with different ROMs, just get it to a point where Kies will install the newer official firmware.

I've already got it SIM unlocked (on the off-chance I put a non-Orange SIM in it) but I'm not sure on the rest. I assume I need to root it before I do anything else.

This site is full of good stuff, unfortunately I'm not 100% certain I've understood what I need to do. Is there a step-by-step guide on how I get it turned into a generic model? I don't mind getting my hands dirtying, so am not asking for an app that will do all of it for me (unless of course there is one), I just need some instructions on how to do it.

Thanks in advance.

I would recommend you to use overcome method.

use Odin to flash official stock gingerbread JQ1.

Download GB stock safe v5 and the PDF guide.

[Xoom General] Whafrodamus:
Is it just me, or is the Xoom the best Android tablet STILL after 2 years? No other tablet from any other manufacturer (or offered by any carrier) offers the combination of LTE, external SD storage, quality screen, fast processor (once overclocked), and overall usability. I've seen the samsung tabs that are out, and none of the LTE ones are really an improvement over the xoom. They offer a dual core, 1 GB of RAM, same resolution screen, etc. I have no intention on replacing my Xoom unless something really groundbreaking comes out (1080p screen, LTE, external SD support, solid battery life). Thoughts?
[Xoom General] romdroid.:
I agree and I hate that the nexus series doesn't have place for external SD storage....wtf did they think??
[Xoom General] Mjamocha:
Preach!
[Xoom General] 063_XOBX:
The XOOM has the worst display panel I've ever seen on a modern device. Colors are bleached they're so pale.
[Xoom General] LexLuger82:
Had to be one hater
[Xoom General] 063_XOBX:
So being honest about my device makes me a hater? Sound logic.
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Seriously.

I don't get threads like this. Is the OP just trying to justify not upgrading his tablet or the fact that he has a relatively old device? Every 6 months we see new and better hardware. The Xoom is not the best, by any means. It is outdated.

That doesn't mean it doesn't still hold its purpose. It is holding up well, especially with custom rom support but compare it to the performance of a Nexus 7 or a Nexus 10 or even a Galaxy Nexus. Compare it to an S3. There are notable performance differences.

Honestly, the Xoom was a bit of a flop on launch; it was a rushed beta product. It shipped with beta software (lol Honeycomb), software that didn't even support the micro sd card (we had to wait until 3.2 for this I believe), its display is garbage, (it should have had the same display as the original Transformer tablet), and its prices were a joke ($600 with 2yr contract, $800 off contract). Eventually we got a $600 wifi version, though still overpriced IMO. And of course the marketing for the device was just plain bad; no surprise there though, Motorola device marketing is always poor.

With all that said, the Xoom has been a great device and I've used it endlessly over the past 1.5 years. But to try and say its still the best tablet on the market is just foolish. I might agree that its the best of the 2011 10" tablets that were released, but the Transformer had nearly identical specs with a better display and the advent of a keyboard dock, I'm just not sure how development over there has been.

Anyway, point is, the Xoom was and remains a great device. It has endured the test of time, in large thanks to developers like Team Eos. But it is by no means the best tablet on the market. That ship sailed quite some time ago.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
There still isn't another Android tablet I'd rather have (well other than the Kindle Fire 8.9 HD because I like the interface for Amazon Instant Video.) I really don't care about all of this performance that people go gaga over because I don't use my XOOM for games. It does what I need it to snappily enough. The only thing I would even consider replacing this with is the Surface Pro.

If this tablet died today, I would be sorely tempted to get a used XOOM LTE before I priced out another Android tablet.

I don't mind that the screen is subpar, a 10" tablet is still small anyway.
[Xoom General] NissanNick:
Its still a good device... there are wayyyyyy better tablets out there but still. I'm keeping mine just to install in whatever car I buy in a few no that. It should do just fine!
[Xoom General] Whafrodamus:
Everything you say is true. I was not saying that it is the best tablet on the market spec wise, I just see no other tablet offered that has the Xoom's combination of features. Sure the Nexus 10 is great, but why can't I get one with external SD support and LTE? I use my Xoom primarily for work, so the LTE is a huge selling point (I do a lot of traveling). The only android tablet available right now that can match what the Xoom has to offer is the Samsung Galaxy 2 10.1, and it has the same Tegra 2, 1 GB of RAM, and a 1280x800 display. I did see that Verizon is launching the Note 10.1 which is rocking a quad core and 2 GB of RAM, but it still has a 1280x800 display. It'll probably look better than the Xoom's display, but my S3 (personal phone) has about the same resolution as the tabs I just mentioned (1280x720 vs 800) and that's a much smaller screen. I'm seriously hoping the Asus Transformer TF700KL becomes available here.

You are also absolutely right that Team EOS has been a huge part in keeping the Xoom alive. I convinced my coworker to get the Xoom when it first came out and it was incredibly disappointing. He gave it to me a year later, I installed some older ICS rom and it's performance was satisfactory at best. Since I installed Team Eos 3 stable bluild, my xoom has been an effin' peach!
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
External sdcards need to die. Internal storage and cloud storage is the future.

Seriously, I've had a 32GB sdcard in my Xoom for over a year and I don't think I've ever removed/swapped it out. I would be perfectly okay with a 64GB internal storage tablet (maybe we'll even see 128 GB in the future? doesn't the iPad come in a 128 GB variant?).

As for LTE, I'm willing to bet we'll at least see a 3G version of the Nexus 10 come out; we saw a 3G Nexus 7 not too long after release.
[Xoom General] Draxin:
It doesn't need to die but, it will. Alot of potential money is being lost by manufacturers and mobile data carriers.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
I have finally come to a situation that leads me needing more than my XOOM can offer. I downloaded SightSpace 3d and brought in a model of the Washington National Cathedral. It's not a complicated model but it crashed. It doesn't on my Galaxy Nexus. I still don't think I'm gonna get another Android tablet though.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

Yes, but we're not in that future yet. Cloud services go down far too often these days. At this point, I can get SD cards for almost nothing and switch between movies faster than I can download them. I also am guaranteed a smoother viewing experience as my movies won't fall victim to network latency. It's a nice dream but I live in the present.
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Its not a dream at all if you live in a modern/civilized area.

---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 AM ----------

How?
[Xoom General] Draxin:
Most of the world considers a reliable power grid, flushing toilets and ready supply of food to be modern and civilized, so are you just trolling or ignorant?? Of course areas with a higher population will be taken care of first when it comes to technology. The county I live in is larger than the state of Maryland, yet Maryland holds at least five times the population. Who do you think is going to be higher up on the "todo" list?

How, is simple economics. If google/samsung is charging a extra $50 dollars for every 8 gigs of internal storage, they would lose money adding a ext. sd slot since you can pick up a 16 gig card for $10-$20, and a 64 gb for $50-$90 (sometimes less) Why pay them more money for something that you can get more of for less money.

Data mobile carriers can make money on us less "civilized" folk who don't have a abundance of free wifi spots in our area, so, if we aren't near a wifi spot to download from our cloud storage, we have to use mobile data or do without. Two of the big mobile carriers are no longer offering unlimited data, so you have to pay. Others are offering unlimited, but ppl that are using more are getting throttled whether the companies will admit it or not. I won't be surprised if premium data packages start coming out offering faster data speeds by putting those accounts on priority... for a price
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Hey man, thats some adorable sarcasm. Look at you being all edgy. Man I wish I could be as cute and clever as you are.

Sorry but those places aren't the primary target for high end, high tech devices. By any means. OEMs should be pushing for more advanced tech, not less to accommodate people; this includes sd cards. Have you noticed that Apple hasn't included an sdcard slot for generations? Its no surprise that Google went this route. Its simpler manufacturing wise to not have the slot, helps encourage people to buy the devices with with more available internal storage (and thus have wider profit margins), and it compels people to take advantage of their streaming media market. All of these things help their bottom line.

Again, I point you to Apple. They've been doing this for years and guess what? It works. Consumers buy it. Guess what also has been selling like hot cakes? The new Nexus devices. Yeah, they're sure losing out on a lot of money.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 PM ----------

Seriously, you took my "modern and civilized" comment a bit too literally, don't you think? We're talking about high end mobile devices in a giant nerd forum and you jump straight to HEY MAN RUNNING WATER AND STUFF.

The simple fact is, the cloud is big and getting bigger. Amazon, Apple, B&N and Google all have their hand in the cookie jar, It should be no surprise that they are pushing toward this. Remember that revamp they did last year with the Android market to the Google Play Store? Google Movies/TV. Watch some of their commercials for the tablets; "The Playground is Open." All from the cloud.

Sorry but the future is here and Google isn't going to hold the hands of people that are left behind, they're going to push forward like any smart company.
[Xoom General] Draxin:
Thanks. :)

And your point is?? I said that ext. sd didn't NEED to do but that it was going too. You still haven't explained why it needs to die, except, now, that it helps profit margins for the manufacturers...pretty much making my point for me, thanks again :)

Apple is a nitch market, If you want to run iOS you need to have a Apple device, only available through Apple, so if they say it doesn't include a ext. sd slot, then it doesn't, if you don't like it, then you don't buy Apple. If you buy a Apple device with 16 gb then 6 months down the road want one with a 32 gb, then you have to buy a new device. Again proved my point.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 PM ----------

You jumped straight to, anybody that doesn't have constant, reliable ever ready internet access is in the stone age, I was just playing along, your point? Just because because it is big and getting bigger, doesn't mean it is better.
[Xoom General] tumpy:
That is not the reason Google didn't putting sd card in their tablet and phone, Paying MS for using fat32 isn't in google cards,

all other android tech company do for using sd card, Motorola and Google nexus is not paying Microsoft toll money...
[Xoom General] 3devious:
That is pretty ridiculous. Your modern civilized world couldn't even support Netflix on Christmas Eve. Part of Amazon's cloud services went down and many things weren't available. During hurricane Sandy, many prominent things on the internet were down. Your wifi and high speed broadband mean nothing if network bridges go down. I've got FiOS and it's still slow at times because the server on the other end only has T1. The cloud is not reliable yet. Most of the mainlines of the internet aren't scalable enough to support everyone cloud streaming everything. Apple is a poor example you've picked. iCloud was a disaster. Apple AND Amazon had a security nightmare in the last year. I can find more examples of these forward reaching companies flaking out if you insist that this is the future. We just don't have the redundancy or the capacity to support a connected world yet. Even if Apple managed to get its stuff together, there are still players that it depends on not to flake out on them.

If this is the future, we're screwed because it is an unstable insecure mess in our little modern and civilized world.

Anyway... My XOOM is 100% able to play every movie I own from my SD cards ALL of the time. If I have power, I have everything I own. I am not at some provider's mercy for data or connectivity. Oh, and by the way I don't have to worry about network security because I don't have to be connected. Ever.

I live in the present. I don't embrace the cloud and keep it at arm's length after a friendly handshake. The XOOM's LTE radio lets me enjoy the best of both worlds. I look to the future but I also remember the past and remain cognizant of what's happening around me.
