[Nexus 4 General] balus3u:
I was also looking for the same . I had a terrible battery life and network drop when I was using HSDPA or not 2g mode of nexus 4 and got decent battery life in 2g network . I was concerned about the network drop because my previous Samsung phone received full coverage for 3g but it had an option to select various bands like gsm and umts with different band values. So that's when I started looking for umts in nexus 4 but couldn't find yet. It's a letdown for me now . really waiting for a solution
[Nexus 4 General] evonc:
For people having the switching between 3G/H+, it is fast dormancy where the phone switches to a lower level 3G state when idling since it provides enough bandwidth for background network tasks (background sync) and switches to H+(Enhanced 3G) during a data transfer such as loading a webpage. After loading it switches back to 3G to conserve power. In terms of battery savings, it could be better to actually allow the phone to use H+ as it will spend less time using the phones resources in order to accomplish the task before returning to idle operation.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Recently an app was launched in Google Play that puts different settings to our Tegra CPU.It's called Tegra Overclock : https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50ZWdyYW92ZXJjbG9jayJd

This app maybe can fix the problem with the brightness cutter problem that many of us who uses 100% brightness have :

I ll run some tests by myself but

i would like from all you that can afford to buy this app to run some tests and post your results

The questions that must be answered are the following :

1) The CPU temperature or the Battery temperature makes the brightness cutter to popup ?

2) In which temperature limit does the brightness cutter pop up and lower our brightness to 87% ?

3) Which settings of the Tegra Overclock app can raise up the the default temperature limit to a higher level ?

4) Do these settings produce lags in light or heavy use?

Please run some tests by yourselves as i am going to do and give feedback.This is a very annoying thing in both the Optimus 4X and G phones for all of us who want to have brightness set at 100% all the time.

PS : I know that there is a trick to make the limit higher by doing this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2187017 but it's not a permanent solution as it's changing the files of Tegra Thermal to default values in every restart of the phone.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
Tegra overclock can set thermal values at boot, but these only affect CPU speed, the smartdimmer can't be disabled either I tried and the screen goes all messed up

[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Thank you for your feedback.:)I spoke to the developer of the app and he is near to find a solution without degrading the performance of the system.:)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JAsko_san:
I just wanted to post this here, but [MENTION=3018019]ipred[/MENTION] was faster :D I wanted to ask if anyone has tried this app? Does it really work - I mean, can you control how many CPU cores are fired up at boot ? Can you save some battery with it ?

What are you experience with it?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ddoubled123:
Yes it works perfectly fine. Im able to adjust GPU clocks (only to what the kernel allows, or it freezes and reboots). I can also force a number of CPUs online so they are constantly being used. Im not so sure of thermal guard though. But all in all I find this app useful for when I want to boost performance in games; it helps.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Feregorn:
I have bought and used this app an it works pretty good, once you get the hang of it. The depiction of the changes you made isn't very well showed, but otherwise in my case at least - running stock rom, rooted - I can successfully set CPU speed, force some or all cores online or even use the companion core exclusively, plus I can also increase/decrease GPU speed and SD access speed. All in all, I'm now satisfied with the purchase. The problems, ipred, keeps facing with screen dimming are unknown to me, because I set screen at 40% brightness and so I've never noticed high enough temperatures that impose limitations on screen brightness or performance.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rufo3:
In my O4X (rooted unlocked) wirh stock kernel (and rom) i think even if i change gpu clock, actually doesn't change...i'll try with other kernels (eternity one because is the only one usable with stock rom)

Inviato dal mio LG-P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ddoubled123:
I believe this is because your GPU has not been unlinked from the CPU, meaning your GPU clocks are dependent on CPU clocks. The settings don't stay because the clocks are constantly changing.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
No, tegra overclock unlinks, well actually it forces the value. Because of limitations in the kernel no frequency above 416mhz will stick, however on cm10.1 [MENTION=4716493]laufersteppenwolf[/MENTION] built a kernel that can do the HTC one x default of 520mhz

Sent from my rooted P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rufo3:
Yeah i think it too...but too sokve this problem i need a custom kernel right?

Inviato dal mio LG-P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ddoubled123:
So, does tegra overclock make the GPU independent by forcing the values rather than using tweaks?

Just need this to be clarified.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] laufersteppenwolf:
easy said: yes :D

it executes two commands, one that unlinks the GPU from the CPU and the other one that echos the desired clock speeds to the right GPU parameters.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SnXo:
I think you can edit the framework.res.apk to set the stock values higher or lower but dont gamble with it if u dont know exactly what u are doing! To edit them use a tool like virtuos ten studio! You can find it here on xda..

Have a nice day at all
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Thanks for your answer but i will wait till Monday as the Tegra Overclock developers answered me this today :

"Alright we have completed the brightness cutter solution module and can upload the update as soon as we make it ready to set on boot BUT we are afraid of piracy as this patch is important one and we saw a hell lot of piracy last week of our app, that's why we reported to you that the patch is ready and we are working on google licensing service. We should be able to upload by Monday if the Piracy protection gets implemented soon"
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
The update came today and in the release notes it says :

"V1.5.2 MUST CLEAR DATA OR FIRST UNINSTALL APPLICATION AND THEN INSTALL THE UPDATE

***An attempt to eliminate the Brightness problem found in Optimus 4X and G devices. Please refer to EXTRA section of app"

The problem is that i cannot get into EXTRA.Every time i hit the button EXTRA the app is crashing.Before the update i uninstalled and reinstall the app as the notes say.I made a report to the developer and hope that he 'll fix it today.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
Its been updated and now works, only issue is even if you disable the control you can't adjust brightness via normal setting anymore. But they're going to fix that too

Sent from my rooted P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
1.5.4 is the last update published today and unfortunately it does not resolve the brightness cutter problem at least on my phone.

I really can't understand why LG put this brightness cutter ! Would it be more convenient to have included an advice message "Please lower the brightness..." and let users decide instead of lower down the brightness automatically ???? :mad: And secondly , why 44 Celsius for CPU and 34 Celsius for the battery are considered so high temperatures????

I wish in the future that a developer will find the source of this brightness cutter activity and remove it, or disable it or shut it off !!!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Is there someone available ( rooted of course ) to execute a command that according to the developers of Tegra Overclock has a lot of chances to disable the brightness cutter? I personally don't have time these days to run tests.

If yes please contact by email ( dev.kingshoo@gmail.com ) the developer of Tegra Overclock ,Rohit Joshi, to tell you the steps.:good:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Finally the problem with the brightness cutter is solved !!! The developers of the Tegra Overclock application managed to create a patch that disallow the cutter to come up. :)

All you have to do is to download the updated ( 21.06.2013 ) Tegra Oveclock app from Google Play, open it, go to Εxtras, check the box Patch Brightness Cutter LG (ONLY ) and reboot ! The solution is permanent!

For rooted users only.

Many thanks and respect to the developers οf Tegra Overclock :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
It does not work on stock ROM and kernel. (v1.5.7)

Have you tested the new functionality before writing this post?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Yes i have tested the new functionality ( using gps for 2 hours, browsing on the internet,playing for hours youtube videos ) and yes it works.

Ι don't understand why your Kernel is 1.5.7.The official Kernel is 3.1.10. That's the Kernel i have with official Jelly bean and root.

Do you have other phone than 4X ( this is the section of 4X ) or do you have a custom kernel ?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Kingshoo:
We will help with our full efforts :)

let us know your full phone specifications (each and every detail) ... Do you know how to use Terminal? It will be very helpful to know what is wrong with your phone as its working for ipred!

This is for all readers. We will make sure that the patch works and till then no need to buy TEGRA OVERCLOCK for testing. We will be providing a free solution for this problem. just all the previous users who have this problem report in this forum or on dev.kingshoo@gmail.com.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
v1.5.7 is the version of Tegra Overclock, not my kernel.

Have you ever checked the battery and cpu temperatures of your phone during your test? Brightness cutting occurs after certain temperature levels.

Have you tested by playing a GPU intensive game like Modern Combat 4?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
Screen shot of software version page is attached.

Yes, I know how to use Terminal.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Kingshoo:
Ok just drop a mail at the address provided and I will tell you the commands to get the patch status.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
As you don't trust my tests i ll play Asphalt and informed you about the results.

Update : I played 3 rounds of Asphalt 7 Heat

1) CPU Temp raised at 59 Celsius.

3) The back of the phone became hot

4) Brightness remained at 100% !

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g311/ipred/Screenshot_2013-06-26-01-37-27.png

Conclusion : The patch of Tegra Overclock passed again all the tests.

@ Postacik when you go in your phone to d/tegra_thermal what are the numbers in the temp_shutdown,temp_throttle and temp_throttle_skin? In my case it's 85000,75000 and 43000.I wonder if yours are different and if this is has something to do with the matter.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
Are you using stock firmware and kernel?

Edit: you have stated that you are using both stock in the previous post.

Sent from my LG-P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Yes all stock.Did you check the value in the temp_throttle file which is located in d/tegra_thermal folder?

Update : I think that i have something that can help both the developer and the users.Another owner of the phone reported that the patch worked but before applying it he had set the value of temp_throttle_skin at 73000 ( the default value is 43000 ).I also had altered the specific value before applying the patch so i think we have something here.

My theory ( maybe wrong ) is that when we apply the patch, the exact time the system keeps in it's memory the value of temp_throttle_skin.

So postacik if you have time, remove tegra overclock, restart, set the value of temp_throttle_skin at 73000 instead of 43000,install tegra overclock, apply the patch and restart.

That is what i did, that is what the other user did and both of us have no longer issues with the brightness cutter.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
Well, I had a little chat with the developer and I think the problem has nothing to do with the settings you mention.

The application actually changes the permissions of the thermald application located in /system/bin so that it will not execute at system startup.

This is the application which performs brightness cutting and runs as a system service.

To change the permissions, Tegra Overclock application has to mount /system partition as Read/Write because it's mounted as read only by default.

I think this mount operation fails on my device.

If you have Root Explorer, you can do what the application does by yourself.

Go to /system/bin.

Click "Mount R/W" button at the top.

Find the file thermald.

Long press on the filename and click "Permissions".

Uncheck all the check boxes under the Execute column and click "Ok".

Restart your phone.

To undo, follow the same steps, recheck all the Execute permissions and restart your phone.

I think, it worked on your phone because you applied the patch after you mounted /system as R/W with Root Explorer or another application. (Maybe you mounted it as R/W before you edited the temp_throttle file)

---------- Post added at 01:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

I added the same functionality to LGP880 Booster but with a different method.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2306980

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

To test my theory about why it worked on your phone please try this:

Restart your phone.

Open Tegra Overclock (do not run any other application)

Uncheck the patch option on the Extras page.

Restart your phone.

Check if brightness cutter works or not.

My bet: Brightness cutter will not function and your brightness will remain at 100% although you unchecked the option in the application.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Yes i know which application changes the permissions ( i had told weeks ago the users here in xda and the developer that the thermald is probably responsible for the brightness cutter ) and yes i had my system mounted as R/W so maybe this is the difference.:)

Just to let you and the developer know, both me and the other user that have successfully applied the patch, have experienced a same thing :

Before the patch we had changed the value of temp_throttle_skin to 73000 from 43000 as i said in the previous post.After applying the patch the value of temp_throttle_skin was

reverted automatically back

to 43000 without affecting the brightness.:)

I ll try the thing you mentioned and report :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
The value in temp_throttle_skin file has nothing to do with LCD brightness.

The phone decreases the CPU frequency when the battery temperature approaches the value in temp_throttle_skin.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ipred:
Yes it worked also:good::good::good: Respect to Kingshoo and respect to you also :good:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Kingshoo:
That's true ipred!

Yes that's why its not working as the system isn't getting in RW mode! Will use universal mount command in the next iteration :)

In the aroma installer, you have to click on "Custom" when it asks you whether you want the default or a custom setup. From there you need to mark android keyboard and you are done. Always look at the custom options you have :3

Has anyone else got the problem where a large text gets sent at different times as different texts? I've had numerous phones and numerous roms but only the sensation does it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] akotlar:
Hey guys,

Carbon Rom 1.7 apparently uses Trinity Kernel. The Trinity Kernel Toolbox is, imo, a poor application in this context; frequently does not apply at boot voltage, loses settings.

Carbon Rom 1.7 does not work with Performance Control either; if apply @ boot set, performance control crashes upon boot.

I would really love to see something like stweaks compatibility with Carbon Rom, but I understand the kernel must be modified to enable compatibility.

Could anyone recommend a kernel control application, or a guide on init.d (specifically max clocks, voltage settings)?

Thanks,

Alex

Hi, what I would do is Odin Shabby's or AGAT's custom recovery found in the Android and Original Development sub-forums. Both are confirmed to work with creating and restoring backups. I've personally used Shabby's customer recovery twice to restore backups after testing CM10.1.

Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions.

Go to the Android Development forum and go to Shabbypenguins OUHDS recovery thread, and it provides excellent instructions on installing the recovery.

SLIMBEAN is working great BTW. I have been rocking it since it came out. I was so pumped because I got my S4 the day it came out and before that I was using Slimbean on my S3 so I'm glad the first AOSP rom up and running well enough for a daily driver was Slimbean!

Look out for Garywn's CM, AOKP, and PA roms, those she be up and running soon enough! Actually CM is in beta as well now!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] cris_epic:
Alright thanks i will odin recovery later today!. Hey is the camera the same in slim Bean tho? Like all the different modes? I'm sure all the Tw functions are lost when you flash aosp correct?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Inline:
Do it! Takes like two seconds :)

Yeah AOSP has none of the exclusive TW features, including but not limited to things like smart stay, air gestures, etc.

The camera has the standard AOSP features, still looks just as good, just missing some of the TW stuff!

SLIMBEAN looks so much better visually though then touch wiz haha, worth it.

What is this?

After installing **link temporarily removed** you will be able to reboot your phone at any time just by pressing PWR and VOL+ buttons simultaneously. It uses Motorola bug reporting hotkey, so it's intended to run on stock JB rom only.

EDIT:

====

I integrated patch into my rom. If you want to experiment with it, download rom and take two files:

system\bin\bug2go-bugreport

system\bin\bug2go-bugreport-oem

and put into your rom, replacing existing ones (don't forget setting proper permissions!!!).
