****This section EDITED JULY 30****

GUYS FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING ISSUES WITH TRICKSTER, LOCKING UP, ETC, WHILE RUNNING MY ROM, ANY ISSUES PLEASE READ THE NEXT PARAGRAPH CLOSELY. Make sure you have already followed instructions in post #2 of my ROM thread:

1. If it is locking up when you try to apply your settings... Go into settings, wipe data for the app, and then delete it with a file explorer. It will be found it /system/app. After you do this, delete these files as well:

/data/data/

com.bigeyes0x0.trickstermod

/data/dalvik-cache/

data@app@bigeyes0x0.trickstermod...

After all of those files are gone, reinstall the application from the play store, and proceed.

VERY IMPORTANT * * * * Modify the voltage settings FIRST... So find that part of this post, and do that part first.

K guys, this post is meant for one purpose only – reduce your risk of issues/lockups, etc. On an ext2 file system, it is important to minimize this risk as much as possible. It is HIGHLY recommended you follow these instructions if you are applying this modification, if you don't like overclocking, start liking it. Your system will be more stable with these implemented settings of cpu and IO profiles. I have also modified the OP the reference this post.

A few things need to be pointed out here:

1.This kernel has a 2 GHz maximum frequency.

2.It DOES in fact carry the frequency bleeding bug. I have verified on my own device before that it has been responsible for some lockups of certain apps, games, etc. I will show you how to minimize this.

3.It is undervolted by default, and pretty aggressively at that.

4.ALL of that being said, it has been the most stable kernel for me aside from stock, which is why I chose to use it for this modification. Follow the next set of directions, to the T, and I can pretty much guarantee that you will not have a single issue with it ,ever and you will absolutely squeeze the most performance out of this device in ways you have seriously never seen with any other set up. I have had hours upon hours, days upon days, running this setup, it will sound “aggressive” but trust me, it is 100% stable and absolutely nutty balls in the performance department. The logic behind these particular modifications are there. So, if you have questions about what this or that does, just ask. So here we go.

First and foremost, we need to download a very useful application from the market. “Trickster MOD” Find it. Download it.

1.Open the app, grant it root access. The different “pages” of this app scroll left to right, right to left. Start in the “general” area.

2.These will be modifications to the CPU, IO scheduler, CPU parameters. First, Under IO control, we want the read ahead buffer size at the default 256. Then under “CPU frequency control” leave your min at the default 200000 and change the max to 2 GHz (this can be confusing when viewed in the app just remember when you select the option to change a frequency the max is at the top and the min is at the bottom. So the list of available frequencies is listed as highest frequency at the top, lowest at the bottom. I say this can be confusing looking at a glance because the values are expressed in hz so the top frequency is 2000000 (2.0 GHz) and 200000 (200 MHz).

3. Hit the “check mark” in the top right corner of the app. A pop up will say “Applied successfully” and will do so every time you hit that check mark from now on.

4. Now under “CPU Governor Control” select the option to change the governor and then select “peqasusq”, hit the check mark again at the top right after you do this.

5. Now select the grey box under that which says “governor control” and change the following parameters to match the following, don’t modify anything else:

Io_is_busy (change value to 1)

Sampling_rate (change value to 20000)

Up_threshold (change value to 85 or 90… the difference is just that 85 is slightly more of an aggressive scaling profile, 90 is slight more conservative, while 95 is pretty conservative. Don't go any higher than 95 as performance will noticeably suffer. You will NOT notice a difference in battery life between the 3, however. So keep that in mind as well.)

Hit the check mark again.

6.Hit back, then click the tab that says “specific”… we are now going to modify your voltage settings for each frequency, this will increase stability for many users.

Scroll down, you will see another field titled in green “CPU voltages”

On the right side, there are voltages represented, you can select them to bring up a small window that allows you to + or – voltage in increments of 25mv.

From top to bottom, modify the following to these adjustments (these are ones I personally use):

2000000 = 1475mv

1920000 = 1413mv

1800000 = 1475mv

1720000 = 1363mv

1600000 = 1313mv

1500000 = 1288mv

1400000 = 1250mv

1300000 = 1225mv

1200000 = 1188mv

1100000 = 1125mv

===================================

EDITED*** AUGUST 5, 2013

===================================

After those are all adjusted, hit the check mark again to apply. Then hit your menu button, and make sure "set on boot" is enabled and also that a notification is set to apply on boot. Also, adjust the settings of Trickster Mod to apply with a 10 second delay. This should solve all issues reported thus far with the app.

===================================

That’s it, you are done. Enjoy
