There are a few installation methods which you can use to install this Settings app, there is one for beginners as well as the more experienced members, who prefer using ADB rather than install zips.

Custom built flashable zips for both the inexperienced members here at XDA, or just the plain lazy members who don't have much time on their hands.

Copying the individual APK to your phone,please be aware that this app does not go into the data partition, only the system partition! For example, these directories below are for inexperienced members, who are willing to try things out, and learn a little more about their phones file system, and how it is structured:

The incorrect directory to copy the custom AOSP Settings app to via ADB:

/data/app/settingsxxxx.apk

The correct directory to copy the custom AOSP Settings app to via ADB:

/system/app/settingsxxx.apk

If you push the Settings app to the wrong directory, you may have a lot of system force closes, and the app will not work. This is why you NEED to push this app to the system directory and not the data directory.

How to use this app?

Use it just like your normal Settings app. :)

Re: [APP] Revolution AOSP Settings

Hi.

Ummm the sdcard bar graph is not very accurate... Maybe this a bug? (Bar is right at the top. If you look at the available room and the bar representation of available room, you can see that its inaccurate).

:what:

Edited: can't upload screenshot. :mad:

wow russel its a shocker all right; since aosp not availabe as a whole u took it down app by app :D there is a minor problem though the fastboot option doesnt show up under battery option for me :'( any idea how to get it :confused:
[HTC Desire C] russell664:
Hey man, AOSP setting does not have the fastboot option as far as I know, however you can enable it though build.prop but the AOSP setting does not natively support this setting, sorry mate.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azcardinalsfan4ever:
I am planning to get the Motorola Razr Maxx HD but the one hangup is that the Motorola Social Networking Widget is not there anymore. I called Motorola and they said that it is not included anymore since the new Jellybean upgrade. I looked through many forums about social neworking on here and still don't have my answer. The Motorola Social Networking Widget worked like no other that I have seen and I think I am really looking for something simple. I want to have my facebook and twitter update for me and after I look at one of the items in my feed it simply goes away. Blingboard was pretty good except it was all manual and it would only load so many items from my feed (50 I think). So, can anyone point me to a widget that would be exactly like that old motorola social networking widget?

[Windows RT General] ej_424:
I'm loving my yoga 11, however at times I just feel that Windows 8 RT slows down especially when multi-tasking. Since our Tegra's are clocked at 1.3Ghz and the same Chip in android devices runs at 1.5, with overclocked kernels available to run at 1.8-2.0Ghz, what are the chances we see this type of hack/development come to windows 8 RT? Im not sure the security obstacles that would present, but haven't seen much on this to even know if someone has looked into this or actively working on method to do so.

Thanks!
[Windows RT General] wksk:
I have been thinking about this as well. Im sure it can be done, but by who? thats the question. Im sure we can easily squeeze some more power out of our device. Good luck to whoever spearheads this
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
The tegra isnt overclocked to 1.5 in android devices. There are actually 3 models of the Tegra 3 at different clock speeds. The one used in the RT is the lowest model (1.2GHz) overclocked to 1.3GHz already. I believe the other models are 1.4 and 1.6 with a few ROMs adding about 100MHz overclock as needed. 2ghz seems extreme though.
[Windows RT General] jtg007:
I've thought about this as well but have always been too scared to ask. Windows is obviously not foreign to processor scaling and power management, perhaps there's a way to make a custom power plan or something. Maybe the way to approach overlooking is not 'like' Android, but 'like' regular old windows. I have no idea and am a noob, but I thought I'd just toss that out there.
[Windows RT General] LastBattle:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/tegra-3-processor.html

Its support for Windows RT is still under development. It isn't overclocked on the Surface RT/Vivo Tab but underclocked to compensate for the missing support for the fifth battery saver core.

We should expect the performance and battery to get better as they iron this out :laugh:

Actually, for those who have gotten Surface RT since launch... I bet most of you have already experience better performance after each monthly firmware update :)
[Windows RT General] Gotcha007:
That's a very good news indeed and we should then probably be able to run the Tablet at 1.6Ghz Quad core instead of the actual 1.3Ghz quad core :good:
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
No where in that link does it mention it being underclocked. The 1.4ghz single core/1.3 quad core is a feature of the entire tegra product line, not jsut the surface RT.

It does mention that the 5th battery saver core doesnt work on windows RT though, that will help.
[Windows RT General] jtg007:
Interesting: There is a "~MHz" key in regedit under local machine -> Hardware -> Description -> System -> Central processor -> 0, 1, 2, or 3. It is set to 1300, but changing it doesn't do anything and it reverts upon reboot.

Even if we can't overclock this thing, is there a way to resurrect the "High Performance" power plan that disappeared in RT? One that would set the CPU to 100% by default, all the time?
[Windows RT General] bigsnack:
Any update or more info on this?
[Windows RT General] cdrshm:
+1
[Windows RT General] Rogerngks:
hope to see a 'high performance' feature on the pwr mgnment as well, especially when we are hooking up RT onto the power line and battery life is not so much of an issue in this case.
[Windows RT General] phailyoor:
iirc, you can still set your cpu states through powercfg in the command line. I might be wrong though.
[Windows RT General] bigsnack:
Is the 5th power saving core just disabled or not present on our hardware?
[Windows RT General] jtg007:
According to NVidia's website, Tegra 3 for RT is "still under development." (http://www.nvidia.com/object/tegra-3-processor.html) It also lists it as only being quad-core on Windows 8 devices.

I had personally reeealy hoped that one of the highlights for RT 8.1 was going to be reworked support for the 5th core, bringing performance and battery life improvements. Alas, it was not to be.
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
I cant see how the 5th core would bring a performance improvement. The system cannot use the 5th core as an actual 5th core, it shuts most of the other cores down to sleep when it needs the 5th which is also an incredibly low performance core, its just for power saving really, or simply hopping around the UI and checking your email, NVidia claim that android can also play video while running purely on the 5th core although this never happened on my Nexus 7 without any other apps running, it carried on running using 1 of the main cores for that.

Would definitely boost the battery life though and thats not something to be ignored. But there are few times where that 5th core really comes into its own, perhaps it just wasn't worth the time for MS to add companion core support to windows RT 8.1 when not all RT tablets use the tegra.
[Windows RT General] jtg007:
I always thought that the 5th core could run simultaneously with the other 4 to manage background tasks, etc, thus leaving less side work for the others. I could be wrong though. Also, I know of only one RT tab to NOT use Tegra (Dell), and it was the first to drop price and flop.

Anyways, the exciting thing about kexec/Linux prospects is that if we were to get in, there are a lot of Android and Linux versions that run on Tegra 3, which hopefully means we wouldn't have too tough of a time getting at that 5th core working then.
[Windows RT General] bigsnack:
Well the Samsung Ativ Tab RT is also using the S4 cpu, but that device had a limited release from what it seems like in North America. I too was under the assumption that th3 5th core could be used at the same time with the other cores, which could free up power for other things. Like the 5th core would be used for the low power task, while at the same the the other 4 cores are being used for a more process heavy task.

It would be interesting to have Android or Linux running in a dual boot situation on our RT devices, or if even possible do what Samsung is doing, and have it emulated in Windows so you can run apps side by side.
[Windows RT General] bydandie:
Surely Microsoft can see that getting the maximum out of the CPUs in their own devices is a good thing? I get that they have to support a few ARM architectures, but there's no reason why Windows RT can't be optimised with a specific update for the Surface?
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
It would be a maintenance nightmare. You know the way everyone *****es and moans about the non existent android fragmentation (or at the very least hugely over exaggerated)? Now apply that to windows RT, its already a struggling platform. You don't want more ammo for the opposition, the extra effort probably isn't worth it. Under sleep mode or single core mode (non companion, RT will scale back to single core non companion happily) the battery life is good enough, companion would be nice, but non essential. Companion core would need to be supported at a kernel level. It would be a nightmare to keep one version of the kernel (if you don't know what a kernel is, consider it the chassis of a car or the foundations of a house, its the very core of the operating system) for each tablet.
[Windows RT General] GoodDayToDie:
It's not *quite* as bad as you're suggesting, 6677; there's already support for tons of different CPU quirks in the x86 and x64 kernels. It's a matter of testing for the presence of a feature, and then enabling a code path if the feature is present. It may not be worthwhile to Microsoft to develop that test and alternate CPU control driver, though.
[Windows RT General] bydandie:
I don't agree, yes the kernel may need reviewing but there are enough Tegra-based RT tablets to make it viable. If Microsoft can't optimise their own platform then who can? Apple do it, Google do it, and there's no reason why Microsoft can't do it. Imagine the breath that they'd bring into the tablet if they did (that said, they won't so it's all moot).

As for Android being fragmented, that's less on the hardware per sé and more on the myriad of versions of Android out there with no hope of update because the ecosystem isn't controlled.
[Windows RT General] lopri:
Why doesn't that apply that to Android? Not that I doubt you, but your explanation seems insufficient so far as why RT does not make use of the 5th core while Android does, because Android OEMs seem merrily designing products based on Tegra or Snapdragon (and even Exynos) with no fundamental disparity.

Are you saying that RT, at least current edition and whatever future revisions based on it, cannot take advantage of heterogeneous chips? Arm's big.LITTLE will be likewise out of question?
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
Because NVidia already have their own codebases for both linux on tegra and android on tegra. HTC for instance only have to take this and stick SenseUI on it, or whoever else is launching a device.

There are also far greater numbers of android devices out there than RT devices, the idea of cost to develop vs return in functionality is a bit different.
[Windows RT General] bigsnack:
Since overclocking isn't an option at the moment, what are some ways to optimize the RT better and have both versions of IE working more efficiently, specially when videos are playing?
[Windows RT General] cdrshm:
+1 I would take optimization over Overclock...
[Windows RT General] jtg007:
While I would take optimization over overclocking too, I think overclocking would be easier and more doable than all the work that optimizing would entail. Out-optimizing MS at their own software sounds unlikely at best, while upping the clock speed would just make the tablet more prone to crashes, something I'm sure MS is on the safe side of anyway.

I'd love to hear a better-informed opinion about this and a plan of attack about improving the general Windows performance, just in case we are stuck in 8.1 jail for the rest of our lives...
[Windows RT General] bigsnack:
Well I would think overclocking can work to a certain point, like how it is on Android and x86 currently. Even if we can just eek out a bit more from the RAM or even GPU if possible it would be better than nothing.

I understand that it would be tough to out optimize MS, but if past OSes, like WM, there is some hope, no?
[Windows RT General] :
Overclocking can make things unstable but a few 100 MHz are usually no problem for modern OS'es. So overclocking from 1.3 GHz to 1.6 GHz in the Surface RT wouldn't hurt at all (except for maybe battery life but IDC about that) while still bringing some extra performance.
[Windows RT General] GoodDayToDie:
The concept of somebody thinking that the CPU speed is a problem for the *OS*, while at the same time talking about a nearly 25% overclock of a passively cooled device, gives me the willies. I mean, it's your hardware, sure, but I hate to watch good hardware get destroyed by people who don't know what they're doing.

Let me make this perfectly clear: the biggest danger in overclocking is not that you'll get weird glitches (which can happen when you're riding the edge of what the hardware is inherently capable of, but that's not the case here) or that the system won't boot (which is what happens when you pass from occasional glitches to memory errors during the bootup process); it's that you'll literally melt some of the hardware. Thermal cutoffs should prevent that from happening, of course, but relying on them is just asking for trouble.

Oh, and yeah, the battery life would suck. Take a look at the power usage (and therefore power - meaning heat - dissipation) curves for a CPU some time. They rise extremely sharply at the high end. Slightly underclocking a CPU (or GPU, or any other really complex chip) can massively improve its power usage. Slightly overclocking one can reduce its functional lifetime to a matter of months. More than slight overclocking can do much worse than that.
[Windows RT General] MemoryController:
However if you could overclock then you could also undervolt. Undervolting has been very common for android devices. If the tegra 3 is anything like the SMDK4412 then you can overclock by 300MHz no probs. Add to that a little undervolt (as low as 50mV) and you're fine.
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
Undervolting increases the chances of CPU glitching even further.
[Windows RT General] MemoryController:
On - 50mV my SGSII (and now my S4) are rock stable.
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
In theory anything over 2.7 is enough for the transistors to switch. But the closer you get to 2.7 the less reliably you are going to be able to switch, when switching large numbers of transistors you do get the odd voltage drop which is generally why the operating voltage of the CPU is higher than the switch voltage, when the drop occurs you are still nicely above 2.7. But each little piece you cut off means that a smaller voltage drop is required within the CPU to cause a transistor to not switch somewhere.

50mV true isn't much. That is probably a safe amount to take off as it won't increase the risk all that much. But its still a slight risk.
[Windows RT General] MemoryController:
Wait tegra 3 has a vcore of 2.7V??? Wow what a power hog!!
[Windows RT General] lilstevie:
Just more on this point. The system is 4+1 no matter what anyone does you will not be able to run both clusters at once as the AMBA used does not allow both to be active at once as the shared cache would become a nightmare between the different bus speeds for the ninja core compared to the main cpu complex.

This is what happens when power collapsing yes, but the SoC doesn't do this automatically, it is actually handled by the OS kernel.

This core isn't that underpowered and it is actually fairly capable for mundane tasks, it runs up to 500MHz as past 500 it becomes grossly power inefficient but the biggest issue is optimisation, across the board android devices have been too twitchy in the kernel space switching and jump off the companion to the main complex too soon, I feel this is mainly because the delay of a few hundred ms was a bit much for people to be happy with when starting an application that needs the juice.

Which is a great idea, and it works wonders for standby times on android devices as they can fire up to check for background operations like notifications without needing to fire up the entire cpu complex.

I think the biggest problem here again is in configuration. Indeed the SoC should be capable of it. The CPU complex does not actually handle video decoding, there is another cpu core in there called the AVP, it is an ARM7TDMI core which runs an extremely optimised firmware which is switched out (at least in the case of android devices) depending on what is being decoded or encoded.

Realistically the base kernel doesn't need to support it as long as the functions can be extended and exposed by a driver, under the linux kernel this is handled separately minus a few hooks from the base kernel support for the platform in a driver called autoplug.

On topic though provided you could get at the frequency table that windows uses to set the clocking it would be possible to overclock the tegra3, but not all tegras are created equal, some will stably overclock, others will not. Indeed in the past people have overclocked them greatly. IIRC the highest I've seen is 2GHz but the average appears to be around 500MHz above the cores advertised max clock. The only real thing that I would suggest needs to be investigated first is how, or even if the windows kernel has aggressive thermal management should the SoC start getting a bit hot.
[Windows RT General] Ace42:
Sorry for bumping but is there any work being done to find ways to over clock the CPU and GPU? This particular soc has good oc capabilities going off of the Nexus 7 2012. Even a 100mhz per core increase combined with under volting should help this device.

I'm not knowledgeable enough with rt to do this, however I was just wondering if progress has been made.
