honestly, i used RomToolbox to change my cpu and io scheduler. but im guessing both, or at least sd. but...

i do not have any cpu options in stweaks with the latest 4.3 exp... only screen and audio options. now im :confused:

I'm on Kernel version 3.0.97Plasma-v2-g1703db4-dirty .. #41 with carbon rom. maybe the rom is my difference. what do you think [MENTION=349360]ffolkes[/MENTION]?

i understand there isnt a listing for 'zen' scheduler in here (that ive seen yet), so im not sure of how much this will help you or answer your question. ive found it useful, and bookmarked until i find a more up-to-date wiki. :)

Yeah I ended up changing mine with rom toolbox pro as well, but at first it looked like the changes didn't stick, then I wrote the question up above about the 2 options, & now I see that the changes I made with rom toolbox pro did in fact stick so.....I'm using zen for io, max CPU 1920 & default governor

& I'm on PAC man latest nightly. Not sure about the whole 3g thing, I have no service at my house anyways, so strictly wifi

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
ok, PAC. so that probably explains why you have different options in stweaks. thanks

[MENTION=349360]ffolkes[/MENTION] Carbon with pegasusq/zen gave me a few instances where things were at a crawl for 3+ min. and then resumed performance. but it happened frequently. i know you're on carbon but dont know if you run zen, or row.

I've ran into this same issue. This appeared to show up after coming back from a screen off as if the processor refused to clock back up. Afterwards, I adjusted the PM lock and screen off frequency for responsiveness and restarted. I haven't ran into the issue again yet (guessing from previous experiences, this probably didn't fix the issue).

Also, if anyone is having issues with the latest Paranoid Android and disappearing mobile data; I had to go into mobile network settings, Access Point Names, then change the setting to Sprint LTE internet (n.ispsn). This seems to randomly switch back to just Sprint at times; I'm not sure how or why it happens though.

As a side question, has anyone ever combined the Plasma Kernel audio tweaks with the Viper4Audio FX and HiFi mods? I tried using them without the Plasma kernel, but was really frustrated with them. The quality of the sound via ear buds was definitely better, but when I hooked up the phone to my car or external speakers via headphone jack; the audio was terrible. I tried increasing the output gains as far as possible, but it did very little when connected to external speakers (the volume output was low and the sound quality was all over the place). If somehow combining the Viper4Audio mods and Plasma Kernel will allow for even more audio clarity and overall loudness across headphones and externel speakers, I would be all for getting some tips on how you configured everything for the best sound quality. I've I had to choose between headphones or external speakers, I would definitely choose external speakers as I listen to music on my phone through external speakers or in my car much more than with headphones.

You're an animal
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mugenga:
Thanks for the hardwork ffolkes. Your kernels have made the AOSP experience on the GN2 100x better. The newest plasma iteration makes PA 4.3 incredibly smooth; the battery life is also drastically better for me than when using the stock PA kernel (I don't seem to have as many wakelocks). I also severely missed the Wolfson Sound Audio mods that came with your kernel. Now, I can listen to music using my phone again lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xopher.hunter:
Recently I have been given the privilege of being able to listen music at my work and I have been doing some serious audio tuning as of late. First I was using stock tw and audio was decent but quiet. So I installed persius to tweak it. This was a little better but something was VERY off. So I went all out and installed cm with plasma 1.67. This was even worse :eek: in both the volume and quality department. I spent days trying to find the right settings but it sounded so... horrid. I randomly read the changelog and saw that voodoo had been removed in favor of wolfson sound control. I decided to flash back plasma 1.65 and hunted down the voodoo sound app. The second I fired up voodoo my ears were in heaven. Crisp treble and clean bass all the way. The anti jitter feature helped sooo much as well. This really should be left in because there is no anti jitter, bass control, or smart gain controls in s tweaks.

Tl ; Dr

Flashed back to plasma 1.65 and enabled voodoo vastly improved bass and tone quality.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JBizzleFoSho:
I am using PA 4.3 right now as well and I have to concur that my battery and smoothness is much better than the included PA kernel. Still playing around with sound though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I can SeCond this. Without Voodoo, sound isn't as crisp and tight respectively.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JBizzleFoSho:
Have you guys gone into Stweaks and adjusted the audio settings? I checked the settings and they were all over the place. Play around with them and see if you can't get them to where you like. I donated to Voodoo for my Epic 4G days and all, but the voodoo developer doesn't support our Note 2, as far as I know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
No, but ffolkes previously (and plans on in the future), integrated Voodoo unofficially onto this kernel. That's what they're talking about.

Stweaks simply isn't capable of the audio clarity that Voodoo is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xopher.hunter:
Re: [Kernel][AOSP][1.67|July 19th] Plasma kernel (formerly Matrix)

Tweaked it as far as it would go. It seems they both have their strengths. Right now I am using both, voodoo for anti jitter and bass control and s tweaks for gain and saturation. Yes they do conflict at boot but disabling stweaks eq and re enabling it makes them play nicely together.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ffolkes:

test kernel is running very good so far! ive had some good batterylife on it. after flashing fresh, i havent had the problem with stweaks that ive had. there is so much to sift through. totally worth the wait! thanks for the audio choices as well.

... might I add.. F a s t.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
Possible audio bug.

Audio takes a few seconds to "kick in" sometimes. I noticed this with Wolfson and voodoo. Cleared stweaks and ref lashed kernel and same thing. Dirty unicorn ROM. Will try on carbon tonight..

Hmm, the server still isn't up. Would it be possible to upload the new version elsewhere, so we can test it out? :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
Same issues on a carbon clean flash. Audio takes a few seconds to kick in and intermittently will shut off for a few seconds throughout testing. Happens with media audio and even system sounds. I do not have any other sound mods installed while testing this. If you need a specific log of something, let me know what to log and when to log and I'll do it.

Still not able to connect to the server to download. Is this a issue? I will say I can see the server is up but it wont allow my connection to anything and any direct links are showing that the file is not there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ffolkes:
Oops, two things. One, the server IP was changed yesterday (to 199.48.164.106), and the old IP is now dead. It was its own primary nameserver, so until that change is fully propagated, weird things may happen. And two, like an idiot I cleaned up a few files last night before I went to bed...and apparently accidentally deleted the kernel I linked to! Sorry, it's been restored now.

Turns out there was a pretty huge bug that caused Slide2Wake to very easily become disabled between wakes. This had the effect of basically making Slide2Wake not work anytime you put the phone in your pocket. If you had difficulty getting the swipe to work, this update should help greatly.

Plasma kernel 2.0b8
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
i havent tried that new option. nows a good time ;)

the latest has been running good. and its crazy fast.

android os has been pretty high though. maybe you could ask [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION] what he did to lower that because he mentioned something about it in his thread a while back, and with his latest update 0.38, AndroidOS has been down on note 2 devices.

EDIT: after 3+more hours, android os is not so high. this was while the phone was sleeping (thats when androidOS is usually high in 4.3).

It's for 4.3. I can make a 4.2.x one if there's demand.

this is awesome....

ffolkes, I want 2 say thank you I was just about 2 ditch Dirty unicorn 4.3 aokp rom and go back 2 TW on my note 2.

I have always loved aokp roms ....but they all have been plagued with crazy low volume...I was running jellybomb 4.1.2 rom

and I know what this phone can do volume wise.

and to basically make it sound like it had 2 rolls of duct tape over the speaker and say

well, thats normal. well, that was not working for me ....

and when I saw "stweaks" on this kernel I did not even hesitate =)

so, thunbs up /cheers and /beer

Having my share of bad luck also. Audio will cut in and out at random ish times. Like playing a song took 10sec. To kick in. Played two songs fine after that. and turned off. Had an incoming call with no ringer sounds on then it just kicks on again sporadically. I can't figure it out. Ive removed v4a, voodoo, toggled Wolfson. Removed all xposed modules and two clean wipes on two different ROMs (du and carbon) now on carbon and I'm getting audio playing and then cutting out for extended periods of time. in and out. its not skipping, just shuts all audio sounds off, then they just kick back on. I can test other stuff in this kennel. It's plenty filled with goods... but audio is huge to me. will test more this wknd.

Thought I would chime in. Been running 10/13 since then and I listen to music for 8-12 hrs a day with no skipping whatsoever. It even goes into deep sleep while playing music.

My configuration is poweramp music player with the EQ off, voodoo sound on, wolfson off, and all running on cm10.2 10/13 nightly.

Getting unbelievable battery life as well.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bjrmd:
Rom: carbon nightly as of a few days ago, music player Neutron, using voodoo switch.

Problem:

1. Delay in starting the music sound on initial play, about 10-15 sec of silence then it starts in the middle of the track. No skipping once it starts however and quality is excellent.

2. Headset mic does not work in a call. I can hear the caller but they can't hear me. If I enable the speaker phone toggle, the phones mic will work, but still not the headset mic.

All else looks good, speed, battery, gestures.

Problem #1 happened to me back on 4.2.x months ago. Ever since I wiped and started with 4.3, I never had that problem again. I don't recall anyone reporting it back then either. It's such a weird problem, I can't see what at the kernel level would make media of all sorts play at like 3x speed for a few seconds. It's just so weird. Does anyone have an ideas?

As for problem #2, I did extensive testing this evening only to find...this doesn't work on the stock CM 10.2 build even. As far as I can tell, this is a problem with all CM 4x12 kernels, or maybe it's related to the ROM I'm running, Carbon. The stock Carbon kernel doesn't do this either. As soon as you press the headset button, it toggles a mute, and then never lets it go. If you answer the call via the screen (don't press the button of silent doom), it'll keep the mic on the headset. I don't know if this is a ROM issue, or a 4.3 issue, but it doesn't appear confined to Plasma kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bjrmd:
Problem 1 is not a big deal

The mute headset mic does not occur with the devil kernel. I agree, I have never had a reliable working headset mic on any rom/kernel combo except stock. But when I took the plunge and tried 4.3, pretty much all variants work fine with the devil kernel as far as headset mic. I never even tried the stock kernel though.

I also tried rebooting my phone to no avail. Has anyone else had this issue when using the Matrix Kernel, is it a general AOSP issue, or am I just having an isolated issue?

Running this kernel with Carbon ROM 4/9 nightly.

So far with one hour off fully charged battery, the phone is at 99%. Approximately 8 minutes of screen time, checked my stats on CBS Fantasy Baseball App, surfed TapaTalk2, and made a couple quick phone calls.

I could change it (and did, to test) but, as expected, it broke color everywhere else. I would suspect AMOLED screens use BGR because of their odd subpixel layouts, but that's just a guess.

There seem to be ways to convert the colors via software, I'm not sure why the developer doesn't implement an option to change it during/after recording.
