This is not recommended to be used for OLED-screens(AMOLED), but have no problems running on LCD screens like the Xperias have.

[REQ]Any developer that could help me with something? I want to make this app matching system UI with ready filters and put it in Setting so that it will look integrated like the galaxy screen settings, that would help ppl think the screenproblem is just a soft problem and doesn't depend on hardware. Please be kind and PM me :)

As many have noticed, and even made some ppl crazy is the yellow tint on our screen(HTC One X, Xperia Ion, S etc).

Searching for screen filtering at play store made my day!

Then i found this app: LINK

I installed it and then made a filter with:

Red 0

Green 0

Blue 8

Brightness: 100%

Contrast: -0

Second thing you should do is:

Press the MENU-button and go in to Options

Autorun [YES]

Hide status bar icon [YES]

Then restart your phone

Enjoy your screen! :victory:

------------------------

Personal experience:

That made me feel like replacing the whole screen!

I use this daily nonstop (24/7), I have not noticed any battery drain at all.

My screen feels harshly brighter and shows much more accurate colors than without.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxtus:
No point in having this thread. Every rom has its rights and user. You can try and find out yourself. There are only handful of ROMs. Important thing is still 4.2.1 is not that ready yet. If you want, try OFFICIAL NIGHTLIES FROM CM10.1 or Asylum(cm10.1) or Stunner 2.0(AOKP) which I have used before. I might have missed out some here but never tried them. My choice would be a Stunner... :D :D. Please feel free to try them and find out yourself rather than somebody suggesting you to. After all they are here to download and try. Good luck.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oohyeah:
C'mon guys, can we show a bit more love here?

I don't think this should be in Q&A, as it's a question that's meant to generate discussion and comment. It could easily have been rephrased as - "Comparisons between 4.2.1 ROMS". It doesn't have a question mark at the end, so now it's OK even though it would be discussing the same thing? Or it could have been a "POLL: Best 4.2.1 ROM", and it'd be ok?

And yes, we can tell people to go try all the ROMs out there, but what's the harm in someone asking for other users comments on their experiences? Afterall, isn't this meant to be a place of discussion? I've found it enormously useful to have discussions like the OP is asking for, and it'd be a shame that these discussions don't take place anymore.

To try to contribute to the OP's question - I've used Asylum and have loved it. It has saved my Note. Had been very frustrated with the lag that came with the TW ROMs but now it's brought my Note back to life again. I've been wanting to try Stunner, and based on Galaxtus' comment that he prefers Stunner the most, I will give that ROM a try too. (So thank you, Galaxtus for that very helpful comment!).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tiny4579:
Just a couple corrections. The original x governors that imoseyon did for the thunderbolt were the regular governor with a screen off max speed set.

There was a v2 of interactiveX that offlines a core on screen off. AFAIK that never happened for ondemandX.

The design of Wheatley was to maximize time in the c4 state. The rest looks OK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Thank you. :)

I knew about the c4 thing, but didnt want to include it, trying to keep it as simple as possible.

According to it, highspeed_freq is the frequency the cpu jumps to when you touch the screen.

Readahead value is when the IO scheduler detects a linear read and starts reading ahead. The assumption is that you probably want the data anyway. It's in kilobytes. It's great if you have a linear read and a random read going at once, which doesn't really happen that often on a phone but hey, the times that it does happen it can be nice to have. Of course a big readahead value will use more memory so don't put in really silly values. As always, defaults should be sane.

No.

It doesn't require much memory? What? CPU governors control CPU frequency, memory has nothing to do with this. Ondemand also has nothing to do with cores as it's not a hotplug aware governor.

Ondemand stands for that it scales up on load in frequency and then detects the load and scales back to a frequency which is fullfills the "demand" of the current load dynamically.

And the max screen off profile is what? It's maximum frequency the CPU is allowed to.

No it doesn't.

Interactive scales by default in steps towards max frequency, Ondemand in its default implementation scales immediately to max frequency.

No it doesn't.

Conservative means that it scales conservatively, not that it is conservative. It pretty much very similiar to Interactive in that it scales up and down in frequency steps. It actually can be one of the most aggressive governors out there.

And what does it do when the GPU is not busy? First of all it is broken in the regard of actually even checking GPU load, which is the one single thing which sets this apart from Ondemand, and has a minimum frequency in such cases. Secondly, it's identical to Ondemand in all other situation.

No.

No, it means that it improves battery by increasing the time spent in the C4 low-power state.

As any other governor.

Wakelocks have nothing to do with governors.

Actually when your screen goes off all your cores go off. What it does is that it limits itself to 1 core when doing activity when the screen is off.

Well does it do hotplugging or not? Yes it does, even without the developer.

I got tired by now and I even left out all the ancient governors. More tomorrow. I hope some people get the point I'm trying to make here, who allowed this to be stickied?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndreiLux:
I actually missed what happened here, maybe for the better.

Although certainly not everything is wrong, the vast amount of information is wrong. It's supposed to be a "simple" introduction to things but it severely veers off cliff on several things. The explanations seems to be actually copied, or may I say, "rewritten in OP's own words" (Probably why so much is wrong) from all over the place, with little actual knowledge on the topics. Some of the governor explanations really sticked out as painfully wrong and I corrected some of them.

I doubt OP can actually explain anything in this "guide", as I've said most of it is wrong and copied out of context. The zRam explanation is actually out of this world:

Disk paging doesn't even exist on a phone, unless you have a custom kernel which supports, and you yourself actually created a swap space. Fragmentation doesn't exist / doesn't matter on solid state memory.

This really shouldn't be a sticky, and people really would be better off following other guides.

Actually you should care because you're posting mostly wrong information while others are blindly following.

I rember reading up on governors in the link Andrei posted and from another older source long ago and comparing what I understand from useing all those governors and reading up on each of them with what u wrote in your guide is totally different. I can see you're trying to simplify it for everyone to understand in your own way but its not exactly correct and can be confusing cause somethings you mention are unrelated.

Thanks for the suggestion on using lux for autobrightness, I didn't know this app, but it works nicely.

I know MBQsniper is trying to help people, and he does in many parts of the guide. But unfortunately the governor part is ridden with mistakes, and spreading wrong info is probably not the best way to help people as once you have learned something with a mistake, it's hard to forget it.

fsync section should probably be changed from

FSYNC:
Faster file reading/loading with a risk of crashing your files on your phone

to

FSYNC:
When disabled, provides faster writing (not reading) of files with the risk of data loss if the phone crashes or is shut down improperly.

@MBQsniper. You were right about the pdroid patch, it must have been faulty for that cm build.

All works as it did on previous phones.

http://www.alliance-rom.com/community/wiki/governors-explained/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dirtyreturn:
Re: [GUIDE] CPU Governors, TCP algorithms, Android Tips, & IO Schedulers: In my Own W

For the whole TCP thing. When referring to packets -that means data transfer?

For the I/O schedulers- that prioritizes the way the apps are handled? I am taking a stab in the dark here- all of these are in some mathematical sequence or something?

For the cpu governors-is it ok to say processor? If it is ok to say that.. is that what the governors take care of?

@MBQsniper? Could you add to the OP if it is not too much trouble.. a description of what each actually are? I'm pretty sure I realize that if reading each description everything would come together. It may / or may not depending on your stance in the matter make even more sense to have a description before the governor /scheduler/tcp to kind of have the full picture before hand and then have the little details.

This is a reference thread it seems. I hope you would include those even if there is google. I think, in my opinion at least, it would simplify things. Though I am not an advanced user if you could maybe take it into consideration. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] faintless:
IMHO

All governor except hotpluggings ones uses both cores LOL anyway yes, but cpu scales to max when reach threshold, if you are gaming or messagging too

I addict it's hightly optimized thanks project butter, from 4.1 it scales at hispeed_freq when you touch screen and it's updated and review daily

InteractiveX is different from first one, first one is more updated and work as new governor , this interactiveX work as first interactive you describe, ondemand, but more fast scales

I tried to test it alot of times, too high battery
