I also have to report freezing on my V970 (ICS 4.0.4) with V18.1. The phone become unrensponsive after unlock, the launcher even froze for a minute or two. Disabling the tool fixed the issue instantly. There are no such issues with version V18.

Unfortunately I use this one as my everyday phone so I have find some spare time for playing wth the settings and saving logs etc. To me it seems to be somehow related (or happens in same time) when version 18 get's granted SU permissions. I never saw the message with 18.1, it's like the tool got stuck or so. Maybe it helps you to figure out or reproduce the error.

Any of you guys notice that for "powersave" governor as well as the "super powersave", the cpu clock will stuck at 1000MHz? Anyone know why is this happening? Thank you in advance.

Version 18.1 working on my Lenovo S890 after a few hickups but version 18 works better though the CPU sometimes got stuck at 1000MHz after reboot.

Thank you so much.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
This is interesting because I did a lot of deep research into the governor and the governors listed are all available. However within the stock MTK6577 Kernel, Scaling

ONLY

occurs on

HYBRID

. This is proven true by when any other governor is set other than hybrid, it defaults to 1001Mhz.

What we should try and do is get some progress on re-working the kernel and just add scaling to the kernel for all governors. Since each governor has a wide range of scaling parameters. MTK Company was SUPER lazy and only figured they'd create parameters for ONLY the HYBRID governor which is quite mad. Since HYBRID isn't the most efficient use of performance/ battery since it spins either most of it's time in "Deep Sleep" and "250Mhz" and "1001Mhz" and Rarely uses the Frequencies in between. It's because the Scaling Parameters within /sys/device/cpu/ need to be re-worked really badly to get more efficiency out of it, as well as an easy "No volt increase required" overclock. MTK threw a lot of volts at the 1001Mhz frequency for some odd reason. Which in turn allows us to push to 1.4Ghz+ without requiring a volt increase, heck 1.6Ghz may be possible straight away.

I found the mtk6577 source data... which shows the 1.2Ghz frequency available but it's not in the right table.

https://github.com/wiko-sources/cink...ufreq-mt6577.c

Maybe I could write a script like

#change cpu to 1.2Ghz by zhuzhuojie 2011-07-23 *EXAMPLE*

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor hybrid

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed 1209000

**If I can get the Motorola Xoom ElementalX kernel source data and compare and copy I think I can attempt to achieve 1.7Ghz**

#define DVFS_F1 (1001000) // KHz, 1/1 <---------- I say change this value to 1209000 or test beyond 1.2ghz until instability occurs.

#define DVFS_F2 ( 834166) // KHz, 5/6

#define DVFS_F3 ( 750750) // KHz, 3/4

#define DVFS_F4 ( 667333) // KHz, 2/3

[Miscellaneous Android Development] boofman:
great idea you got there..so, the mt6577 can do pretty much clocks higher than 1.2ghz, maybe 1.5ghz can add significant performance gains? If that's the case, then this app can well become an overclocking app instead of just trying to fix the scaling issues..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Gains would be huge at 1.5Ghz since we're talking about 1,000Mhz increase including both cores combined which is insane!

Lol Sorry didn't enable the service. Wow this is amazing! Great Job App Developer! You have some amazing skills! My Man *pound it* haha

Right Now it's shooting up and down constantly while sitting doing nothing. I use "System Monitor" from play store to in real time monitor the clock and the load. I then can use "CPU Adjuster" from the Play Store to dial in the clocks with profiles and enable NOOP or CFQ. Just for anyone not sure what the NOOP or CFQ is, it means that noop doesn't use an I/O scheduler it's just everything as it comes it handles the I/O inefficiently in terms of battery life but is way more powerful than CFQ. CFQ uses a scheduler which is suited more for battery life as it schedules each task going from the southbridge to the storage and the memory/ processor. Statistically speaking you will use less energy while using the default CFQ I/O Scheduler but performance will be lacking. When using NOOP performance will be as good as it can get in terms of the performance and throughput between the southbridge, storage, and cpu/ memory. However noop will use more energy since it's getting tasks done a lot quicker and "snappier". The difference can be say 30 minutes off the total battery life which is hardly noticeable.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nakTT:
Woow! Thanks for the info bro. Do continue sharing info here.

P/S: May I know which "System Monitor" and "CPU Adjuster". Just want to make sure I pick the right one. Thanks again.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Yeah no problem at all man glad to help ::)

Yeah it's exactly as I had said the names are just "CPU Adjuster" and "System Monitor". Cpu adjuster looks like a guy moving fast with lines like he's running. System monitor looks like a monitor with blue red and green bars, like a bar graph. I also use System Tuner which looks like a Green Android with a magnifying glass and lcd by him.

I like this app since I can really dial in my clocks better.

I just need to find an app that forces all apps to 0% usage when idling so it doesn't cause the cpu to constantly be shooting up and down while doing nothing. Things like the play store seem to use a continuous cpu % of like 5-10% for no reason in the background.

I'm going to try out Bitdefender Power Tune-up and see if I can dial it in.

6577 has two (or more) modifications - 6577T has max 1200MHz, but it is rear

and any kind of overclocking is impossible (w/o kernel sources) - 6577 will work on 1000, T will work on 1200
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nakTT:
Which one do you think is better overall?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] michfood:

Michfood,

Maybe we could design a global 6577 app which would allow for 1.2Ghz or more...? :D

Basically you successfully were able to manipulate things in /sys/devices/cpu OR /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed 1209000

stepping is 83417 I believe so the available clocks for standard mtk6577 are 1167834, 1334668, 1501502, 1668336

So basically you could write a script in Setspeed to the 1.2Ghz clock or more with testing... Say start at 1.2ghz then move to 1.3 then 1.4 etc
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sipi1302:
That will be great.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] greedisgood99999:

Ver 18.1 hangs, fcs my jiayu g3. Just my input. :o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Deep sleep goes well below 250mhz and gives great battery life. When in deep sleep for my own device i went to sleep with 5% battery life and after not touching the device for literally about 15 hours, I woke up the device and was at 4%. Make sure your going to deep sleep since I have seen roms on NEEDROM.COM not have deep sleep and give terrible battery life. Like the Master A Lu kernel supposedly is what I'm running and deep sleep works and I get great battery life. Just tested it recently and got about 72 hours on my battery which of course is with the aid of this app and deep sleep.

I tried changing files within /sys/devices/cpu and it always defaulted to a higher level value from an unknown location. I firstly got permission errors but some files allowed me to save and it automatically defaulted to a default value. You were able to manipulate a lot which makes me think it wouldn't be impossible to get some clock speed out of it. What do we need? Kernel Source? On Needrom.com they were able to build a kernel for the MTK6577 via the supposed "Master A Lu" kernel. Maybe needrom.com could dial in an overclock kernel if only I could speak and write Chinese.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] michfood:
once more time - kernel is not for cpu - it is for certain phone model with touch, lcd, memory, camera and so on - all of them need its own driver - so without sources for certain model we are never able to compile working kernel...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Can we extract the kernel for our particular device and work with it then? Or extract it from our .rom? One we know is working, the one we are using and work on it.

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] michfood:
do not understand your question.

kernel can be extracted from boot.img - but can`t be decompiled - only compiled from sources, which we haven`t
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :

[Miscellaneous Android Development] michfood:
well, its :good: You don`t give up )))

but AFAIK the point is that kernel has higher priority then libs and modules.

even if You will compile overclocking module there is no chance to pick up power management from kernel... but... who knows for sure ))))
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I found the kernel source for the mtk6577 but it's on a site i can't register on it's www.ibtasm.com and the image captcha is busted so I can't register to download the mtk6577 source code and it's not english, not sure what language it's in.

The mtk6589, looks very nice in performance . . .
[Miscellaneous Android Development] michfood:
looks like I`ll get 6589 soon too :silly:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Yeah I was thinking about it and I could spend a lot of time and sweat possibly getting 1.5Ghz out of the MTK6577 which yields just 3.0Ghz in total. Which is huge obviously but why spend all that sweaty time, when I can just get the MTK6589 which is already at 1.2Ghz and Times Four Cores yields 4.8Ghz at stock speeds. Boost the Quad to 1.5-2Ghz if we are VERY LUCKY and yield an outstanding 8 Flippin' Gigahertz!

My buddy bought the STAR S7589 which is the best MTK6589 available since it has a 3200mah battery. The Galaxy Note II has the worlds largest battery for a phone in the USA at the moment being 3100mah. The MTK6589 stomps the MTK6577 by such a huge amount its almost funny.

My STAR N9588 has a 3600mah battery which is insanity. The reason the STAR S7589 has only 3200mah is because the Stylus takes up the room and they had to reduce the battery size. The Stylus is awesome! They state it's 5.8" 1280x720 AMOLED with a crazy high pixel density at 320 ppi so very sharp gorgeous image. Battery life is outstanding on the STAR S7589 since the quad core is more efficient and uses less power as well as being a smaller newer nanometer process. The battery life lasts a long time even somtimes longer than the STAR N9588 MTK6577 because the STAR S7589 MTK6589 can get more work done using less cores...

I recommend getting the STAR S7589 on ebay, which I can buy in the USA right now for only $285. I payed $245 for my STAR N9588 so I will only pay $45 extra for EPIC 1.2Ghz Quad Core and Stylus.

All Custom Roms for the MTK phones are on WWW.NEEDROM.COM

If there aren't custom kernels available I'm sure we can find the source code and build a fresh kernel maybe pushing to upwards of 2,000Mhz per core!!

Cya guys and good luck! I'm excited. :laugh:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nakTT:
I might get myself Lenovo P780 :)

Sent from my Lenovo S890
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
LOL Right on! But we Should ALL get the STAR S7589.

It's the very best MTK6589 there is...

5.8" 1280x720 AMOLED

1.2Ghz MTK6589 Quad Core Processor

Stylus

Gigantic 3200mah Battery for Insanely long battery life. Literally lasts about 3 days before requiring a charge.

No Other MTK6589 can do this... All Other MTK6589 phones have a maximum of 2800mah.

That way when we all have STAR S7589's we can all work together to get development rolling.

*UPDATE*

The Lenovo P780 isn't too bad. Only 5" which is a con for me because 5.7/5.8" is perfect. Plus when you have Epic Performance, You Want Epic Visuals. The 5" screen is too small. I wonder if Lenovo makes a 5.7/5.8" version?

The Lenovo P780 also has an outrageous 4000mah battery, which is hard to believe honestly. It also only has an 8MP camera which is lacking in my opinion. The STAR S7589 has a 12MP camera (4000x3000), Stylus, 5.8" 1280x720 Screen (Gorgeous Image), and a 3200mah battery.

It's not really possible to fit a 4000mah battery on that little 5" phone unless they made it really thick. Like Twice as thick as the thin STAR S7589. For instance your typical tablet which are 7"-10" have usually a 4400-4800mah battery. So it's likely they are lying because it's physically impossible to fit 4000mah in a 5" phone.

*UPDATE*

Looks like the Lenovo P780 uses a newer expensive battery type. Not your typical Li-Ion, but rather Li-Poly. It's newer age technology and more expensive. Can hold more capacity while being smaller. Pretty interesting.

I'd say lets find a Lenovo 5.7" with a Li-Poly and I'm sold. As long as it's not too expensive. The good thing about the STAR S7589 is it's $285 USD shipped now and is a great phone overall.

Looks like the Lenovo K900 is 5.5" 1920x1080, Uses a Dual Core Intel Atom Z2580 with Hyper Threading so it's 4 threads. It goes to a very high idle clock of 800Mhz minimum, clocks at 933Mhz and boosts to 2000mhz under turbo boost. Only a 2500mah built in none removable battery. Pretty cool. Nothing I can find can beat out the STAR S7589, Until the MTK6599 (8 Core) Octa Core phones come out later this year...

:fingers-crossed: :p :cyclops: ;) :D :o :) :victory: :laugh: :good: :cool:

*STAR S7589 & It's Epic Quad Core Performance at 1.2Ghz per Core @ 4.8Ghz in total Stock*
