[Q] Latency Issues - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Does anyone have screen latency issues, and if so, how did you correct them?
I'm on Viper XL 3.2.6, Elemental X 5.2 and have basically reduced all OC/UV settings back to stock. When I go to wake my screen, the lock ring may be off to the side and it takes a second or two to relocate to the bottom of the screen. Then, it may unlock OK but when I go to do anything, there are delays. For example, I'll launch my Touchdown client and the PIN pad doesn't show up for a few seconds. Or I launch Apollo music and it takes a few seconds to show my installed music. Or my BT headset takes a while to connect.
All of this seemed more instant on older versions of this ROM, so I'm just wondering if there were any issues. I thought it was my overclocked GPU settings (3D 512 MHz, 2D 320 MHz), and once I reset those to stock it seemed to get better, but not as good as I think it should be. BTW, I am still getting relatively high scores in Quadrant Standard (in the high 6000s), so I know the thing is running fast.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

I do not know if this will fix your problem but I was having the same issue. I noticed that when I went into the venom/ kernel folder there were 2 kernel images. I deleted the stock image and kept the elemental. Then ran the installer again and everything is working fine.

try changing minfree settings in tweaks app to stock

I don't have a Venom/Kernel folder. What versions are you on?

Lol don't think that's gonna work. That is for the venom installer I believe. Your kernel will not be there, and you cannot be running two kernels at once. Have you tried full wipe and flash a jb ROM keeping its stock kernel?

If setting minfree back to stock doesn't take care of it, that was my plan. Thanks for the suggestion.

[Q] Phone freezing on camera standby

I just recently S-off, rooted, and put ARHD on my sensation. When im using my camera then while still in camera go to lock my phone, when i try to unlock my phone it seems my phone is frozen, like its turned off, without any power. I have to take the battery out to get it to power up again.
Anyone know what the problem is?
if you have custom kernel and it downclocks during screen off that happens. Happens to me before also. I guess the camera uses much of the cpu resources, not sure... that happens to me when i set the cpu to lower clock speed at screen off.

Since you are arhd gb rom I believe you are on faux kernel. Faux gb kernels have his own implemented system which does not allow you to turn off your screen while in camera. try to avoid doing that and you are all good. Or simply move on to ics. Its about time

Similar issue with freezing but on ics and instead of doing it for camera it does it when I normally lock phone..Any suggestions? Havent messed with kernel either..running opensensation

Some kernels/apps downclock and change governor when screen goes off, if setcpu is doing it, superuser may not grant it permission for another few seconds when you try to turn on, causing it to lag, easy fix is if you just locked and want to unlock screen then press power button 3 times, will turn on instantly

Thanks for the answer. I did a search in the faux kernel thread and confirmed the same thing. I guess the HTC camera has its own power management system which interferes with the faux PM

[Q] CPU Settings for games?

Bought Mass Effect Infiltrator today as it was on sale. Wouldn't boot until I installed Chainfire 3D and disabled MapBuffer Emu I think it was.
Now after logging into Origin for first time, it crashes phone every time I try and reload the game.
My question: Whats the best SetCPU settings? I've been trying a number of max settings, and governors, and all have caused phone to reboot. If anyone knows a magic setting that would keep me from rebooting for hours and hours, it would make my night much easier.
Or are there other tricks I can try?

It doesn't seem to be the phone's settings. Have you tried some other ROMs? I don't know if it was posted here or not, but CM7 reloaded had a change in the video driver and may prove diagnosticly beneficial. What ROM are you running? You may want to try a FroYo ROM. Maybe one with b_kernel?
It runs fine for me on Minimal Triumph and Sharp Roms.

Could have just been the source at the time. I deleted it and haven't looked for it since. I guess I could search for it and redownload it.
I did end up starting over on a GB kernel though, didn't mess with the .config much this time around and gonna do it one slow compile at a time with one change to see when things go south
*edit*
Ok so from the looks of the source roman had changed 2 files when overclocking and undervolting and it was for global cpu voltages (faux code). After using the code changed in arch/arm/mach-msm/kconfig the phone bootlooped at the splash screen, but the change to arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock-8x60.c (faux code for 1.5Ghz oc/uv?) it boots just fine,but still at full speed no matter if setcpu is ticked to set at boot or not, and my guess is that's just is what it is, )90% of kernels boot at the speed on this device. Anyways that's what I did today trying to start as simple as using code that already works. Now back to the work week

Just from my observations, it seems there is something about a Sense ROM that causes the kernel to always boot at max speed of the kernel regardless of any settings in SetCPU or other cpu-clocking app. Only after the device is booted can you manually run SetCPU and then the desired speeds/options will take effect. I've watched it working, as soon as I boot up, I open SetCPU and just watch it... it starts out at 1.7GHz (the max on your kernel). SetCPU will then adjust it down to my desired 1.5GHz. As the phone goes through all its bootup steps (syncing, etc.), suddenly the speed will revert to 1.7GHz again. I can then reset it to 1.5 and it will remain there from then on. So, whatever it is that Sense is doing messes with the cpu clock. Non-sense ROMs don't exhibit this behavior, at least not that I've seen.

I'll be diving back into kernels soon.
My laptop is fried, but it'll run in ten/fifteen minute increments sitting on a handful of ice packs fresh from the freezer.
Once I finish migrating everything off of it to usb hdd devices I can start going through what I got.
Meantime, I'll browse through what I got moved onto my phones sdcard and throw some tips out. Been a while, but a quick review and I can throw down what you need to change for stable cpu table edits.
Don't want to steer ya wrong off the top of my head when it's been months since I've looked at it.
Definitely we need to get some stuff thrown around if a lot of old works were lost.

Disable CPU Rendering

This tweak has made a big difference on my phone. It could also be the combination between imo's .9 kernel and this tweak, but my phone is running really smooth and I didnt get passed 75% all day yesterday on my battery. Also when playing NOVA 3, I noticed it was smoother. Check it out and try for yourself, heres the forum link

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Installed this mod.. not sure if it's really working or not.. I ran a sunspider bench which tests rendering speed of the browser and I got a 1450ms speed on CM10.. seems like it's def faster? I'm not sure though.. I want to say I used to get a 1600ish score beforehand.
ROM/Kernel combination?
I am on Paranandroid's Hybrid CM10 based ROM with Imosyen's Lean Kernel. Has someone tried this tweak with this (or any other CM10 LK combo)? Also, does this have any improvement on HDMI/MHL connectivity? If i play vids using MHL, the video kinda flickers and frames overlap.
I asked this in the main thread but figured I'd pop it here as well. I'm on a T999v GS3 (rooted), and the flash file failed in recovery and my phone doesn't have a system directory to manually put the ecg folder in. What do I do next?
Just curious.
How is this any different than selecting this in developer options?

I have the same question as WolfePack. Would enabling gpu acceleration in developer settings do just about the same thing?
The guy states...
"On ICS and JB I don't think this tweak is really necessary, GB never had it as an option, I guess that's why it feels more effective on GB roms. It's almost as if it's already rendering for UI with GPU on ICS and JB, correct me if I'm wrong it just seems that way to me. "
"Yeah I noticed that, doesn't make much of a difference on ICS for me. If you can try GB you may see a big difference."
"On ICS I can't really notice a difference, but on GB the difference is very well noticeable."
and
"debug.sf.hw=1 does that, which is very default in most build.prop I think you don't have to mess with egl.cfg if you have debug.sf.hw=1"
and on the SGS3 default is debug.sf.hw=1 already so.....
so.. are you sure your really seeing anything? I think this is bunk for us given the above points.
installed... makes ZERO difference, in feel or scores of bench marks.
but it does install just fine
Well either it's imo's .9 kernel or this mod because I'm getting 14 hours at 48%. Your benchmark scores should be lower. At least the 3d ones. But I'm not sure what the difference is for the option in the dev options

battery life not as good as before

when i was on ICS rom whether being cleanrom or viperxl i can get at least 24 hours with 2-3 hours of screen time. now with JB i am not getting that. i am using the same apps and widgets. right now i am using custom kernels(that is suppose to improve battery life). is JB using more battery than ICS?
i flash different roms cm10, aopk, miui, and sense base, and using different kernels. is it possible along the way something went wrong causing my battery to deteriorate?

Are you overclocking the custom kernel?
What radio? You might try the JB radio, as there might be a ROM/radio mismatch causing some extra battery drain.
