Hi everyone! Thank you for your help in getting CM up to a flawless standard! We are now almost ready to deploy CM 1.5 - it will include MMS blocking, Class0 auto replies and many other new and very cool features.
We need your help now to iron out any remaining bugs before we embark on a daemon rebuild. Please download the app from the market and get testing! Here are the issues we want to address specifically:
- If you have problems regaining 3G after the telephony restart. This should have been fixed. If not, please try "Slow radio restart" in Debugging and report your results!
- Issues moving list priorities on Light or Dark theme. Again, if you have issues, please switch to the other theme, try again and then report back.
- Notification color schemes. We are interested if the new notifications comply with the majority of frameworks.
Thank you in advance for all your great work, this ultra-awesome app is as much a child of yours as it is of ours

This is a fully functional application. However, after a 24 hour demo period it will start nagging you to buy the Key, which will remove all nag
screens and timeouts from the interface. The nag screens are pretty light though, so users who dont want to spend can live with them.

Known BugsSplash Screens will only work on TouchWiz
Working on finding out the cause of these issues. Please report bugs in either of the Team Kernelizers threads.
This is still in Beta, more is yet to come!!!!!!
Kernel InformationGeneral Installation Instructions (for both TW and AOSP):1. Download correct version of kernel for your device and rom. This is important as you may brick your phone is you use the wrong version.
2. Flash kernel using your preferred recovery
3. Do the following AFTER installing the kernel and BEFORE you reboot your phone:
a. Clear cache
b. Clear dalvik
c. Fix Permissions
4. Reboot your device.
TW Specific Kernel Instructions:
(can be used with AOSP too)There are some files on your TouchWiz phone that need to be renamed in order to maximize the battery life of your phone. There has been some debate on whether or not this is necessary, but for now we would recommend renaming these files to ensure that there is no chance of excessive battery drain.
Part 1:
These steps are only necessary on TouchWiz ROMs, however you can also do this on AOSP as well:
1. You must have ROOT. You will need to have a root enabled file explorer on your phone (ES File Explorer works very well and you can get it from the play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en). When you get it, open it up and go the the settings and scroll all the way down until you see the Root Settings. Go in there and enable ALL of the root settings.
2. After that is done, navigate to your root folders using the Folder Up icon at the top. Once you are in your root folders, navigate to /system/bin and locate the following files. You will need to rename them with a ".bak" at the end of the filename
gsiff_daemon --> gsiff_daemon.bak
mpdecision --> mpdecison.bak
qosmgr --> qosmgr.bak
smd --> smd.bak
smdexe --> smdexe.bak
Renaming these files will not harm your phone. Many users rename these files every time they flash a rom, and no damge is done.
Also, some ROMs come with these files renamed or deleted entirely, so if you don’t find a file, don’t be alarmed.
You have to do this every time you flash the ROM and/or Kernel.
If you feel uncomfortable doing this yourself, you can use the TK-MOD (see Downloads section) and it will handle this for you.
Part 2:
Stopping mpdecision from being called:
1. Open terminal emulator and type the following code:
su
2. When terminal emulator asks for root permission hit 'Grant' or 'Allow'.
3. At the # prompt type:
stop mpdecision
Using Rom Toolbox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox) we will make a script that will stop mpdecision from being called at each boot so you don't need to use terminal emulator each time
1. Open Rom Toolbox and scroll down to the Scripter option
2. In the scripter, click the “+” button in the top right corner, then select 'Create'
3. Type a name for our new script, lets call it “stop mpdecision”
4. In the commands enter the following text:
#!/system/bin/sh
stop mpdecision
5. Hit the disk icon to save it
6. Select the script that you just created and a dialog box should pop up, select set at boot
Were done here
AOSP Specific Kernel Instructions:When coming from a 3.0 Kernel to a 3.4 Kernel there is a new method with kernel updates. Skipping these steps will cause phone instability, due to some bad data left behind. This is a flaw in the Android OS, not the application. You must follow the instructions below (Thanks ktoonzs for the new method of the ktweaker app)
1. Go to Settings on the phone
2. Go to app manager then all apps
3. Scroll down to ktweaker app n open it
4. Once open hit FORCE STOP and then hit CLEAR DATA
5. Reboot and flash your new update of ktoonzs kernel
6. Repeat steps 1-4 in the above “General Installation” section
You should be good to go after that

We are providing these pre-configured settings as a means to assist S4 users with further improving their overall experiences on this already beast of a phone or to simply use as a baseline to work upon tweaking further. Please Keep in mind that results will always vary per device regardless on the settings being used. Apply what works best for you and your phone. We're here to help eachother out and with more options comes better experiences for everyone running the KT-SGS4 kernel. Big thanks to ALL who have contributed!
Download links will include the specified profile(s) as well as an "Adjustments" file. The "Adjustments" file is just for easy view of all changes made to a profile compared to stock settings.
1. Download the file(s) to your phone. In case of .bin files, optionally rename the file(s) as .txt
2. Copy ONLY the profile(s) (DO NOT copy the "Adjustments" file) to /sdcard/KTweaker folder using a file Manager of your choice.
3. Open Ktweaker app and click on "Restore Prefs from sdcard".
4. The file you just copied should be listed there. Choose the one you want to apply.
5. After applying, make sure the "Set options on boot" setting on the main menu of KTweaker has a little green text bellow confirming that the settings will be applied upon reboot.
6. Profit!
Balanced Bull: Reloaded (updated: 11~15~13)
These settings are very special to me as they were my very first, dating back to the Galaxy S3, and has gained an incredible amount of feedback. It has become notable for it's fairly smooth interface and amazing battery life. If this stacks up to your standards then I encourage you to use it!
https://copy.com/6DYYijYNqifx
Nightmare To Remember
This will likely become your beautiful, never ending nightmare.. It offers a unique balance between battery and performance but unlike Balanced Bull, it is slightly more performance oriented due to the more aggressive scale up to max CPU. However, only 2 cores will be used for the majority of the time so you can still enjoy a nice buttery smooth interface with just enough juice to last you through the day.

Bless The Child v3 (updated: 10~25~13)
Based on Ktoonservateq and aimed towards battery. This is specifically for all the battery hungry users out there wanting to conserve as much power as possible. So don't expect the BEST but rather decent performance out of this one.
https://copy.com/CZdfHiaZEOAu
Feed The Machine
The exact opposite of Bless the Child. This is a performance oriented option for all hardcore users. If battery isn't a priority for you then this is a great option.
https://copy.com/xWpFNDtIsQHe
Day Of Reckoning
Very similar to Nightmare To Remember but is aimed slightly more towards battery without deteriorating much of the performance. It is based off the Pegasusq governor.
https://copy.com/vynBURHcsOUl
Dead By April v2.2 (updated: 11~15~13)
This profile attempts to bring some of the best battery life possible to your device. It is similar to Bless The Child but takes things a step further . It now focuses more on snappiness but still maintains it's well known battery conservation. It manages to maintain a smooth ui for your average daily use.

Project Icarus by @mamba720027
So some may wonder why the name "Icarus",why not Hyper Performance or Deadly Good Battery.
Well the reason and to begin explination,short history.
Icarus is a greek mythology who is seen today as a mythical pioneer that tried to conquer the skies.
I like that mythology cause it kinda corresponds to my own saying "fly high or fall hard" which means to aim high or fail trying. So their you have it folks and thus the profile name "Icarus".
And onto explination of each profiles.
The first is "Performance" which is catered for straight out performance with also good battery performance.
This one is for when u dont give a rats flying balls about battery really and just want everything super fast and smooth. But you maybe surprise of battery performance. I recommend everyone try this profile first. My current favorite
The second is "Conservative" this is for those seeking performance but also better battery performance than the first.
This one is the middle man or lady as u may want to refer to it. It gives the best of both worlds,performance and battery. So if the first leave you stranded then fear not, this is the one to turn too
The third is "Kamikaze" which means "god wind". It either knocks the daylight out of your Galaxy S4 due to its high undervolteing and mean intent on Battery Performance but still snappy.
This one the undervolting is of my personal voltage table that runs stable for me with other tweaks. If it runs successfully for anyone else then battery performance may be great.
This one is for those that likes the thrill of trying something new and unsure if it will work

Undisputed 3 (updated: 12~11~13)
This is a universal performance setup in which combines the essential elements of other profiles by providing equal battery life, speed, performance, and stability to bring the ultimate experience to your device.
https://copy.com/H0FUiELjgegB
ECLIPSE v2 (updated: 10~25~13)
This is a performance oriented option where great battery life is also expected to intervene. This not only will bring an incredibly stable, smooth, and snappy feel to your device but will also benefit towards longer lasting battery so you can love and enjoy your phone the way you were meant to.
https://copy.com/fgFWgW30IE38
Asking Alexandria
Another battery driven profile in which focuses on saving as much juice as possible while also maintaining stability and providing an extremely snappy feel to your phone. It is quite possibly one of the smoothest and snappiest battery saving profiles available.
Why Asking Alexandria?
It's named after yet another one of my top favorite metalcore bands and I chose this because Alexander The Great basically ruled the world at one point and "Alexandria" is the female equivalent to that name, which has become known to mean the "one who comes to save warriors".
"Asking" was an addition to the title name as an indication in the sense that we are all asking Alexandria what she can really do to our phone.

Project Daylight v2 by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
Day Light is focused mainly on battery conservation. I felt that its useless if its not smooth and lags alot so I add performance into the mix createing a profile that offers both while its first and foremost goal "battery performance" is still preserved and not diminish. This profile is yet unique and on a different level from my early release of "Icarus"
The contents are 3 profiles unique in their own way, "Daylight", "Daybreak" and "Experimental" along with a "Extra" folder containing wallpapers I created on our S4 for fun while testing . Kind of gives me some inspiration and sense of feel of what my objective is.
Daybreak is a crossbread profile of my Icarus Performance profile and Daylight. Its simply utilizing the performance power behind Icarus Performance profile while useing Daylight profile governor settings as its core to boost battery performance
The experimental profile is heavily undervolted/Underclocked with tweaked scheduler and governor. I taught if some of you could run it stable then it may produce great or mix results

What Lies Beneath
This is an extreme battery performance setup in which essentially transforms your quad-core device into a dual core device.
Why "What Lies Beneath"?
You'll find that during light to moderate operations the cpu remains at lower frequencies for an extended period of time and will only jump to max when needed. Although it's clocked at a max of 1.3ghz it maintains a surprisingly smooth and snappy feel to your device at such low frequencies. This is where battery life is also expected to come in to play as well.
https://copy.com/PXAKKLMFdNDU
Ktoonsified v2 (updated: 12~23~13)
This profile was put together by none other than the BOSS himself, @ktoonsez! This is a performance oriented option in which also offers a great deal of battery life. Haven't tried these settings yet? then what are you waiting for!! Load em up and be prepared for one of the smoothest and snappiest experiences ever!

Sleeping Dragon by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
Sleeping Dragon V2 Single Core
This is a single core profile aimed at consumeing the least battery for a time when you will be away from home or at work and away from the charger. It was a profile i played with at first as i did not expect it to mount as much with apps and system UI needing a right amount of performance from a CPU to meet todays tasks in performance. In the end i was able to tame the dragon and make it work as best as possible to achieve its goal
Sleeping Dragon V1 Quad-Core
This is the counter part of Sleeping Dragon V2 but with many tweaked parameters to make it a fully functional 4 Core base profile in hopes to achieve close or same battery performace as its single core entity. Unfortunately i still am not sure if it measures up but what i know from previous test with settings @Stock it hold its own in battery department. I am pleased with the results although i would wish to see some light usage results from users.I must give credits to Luigi for useing parts from his Balanced Bull Script, and Undisputed 3 Script and part from my Crimson Dragon Script. I am pleased to present users with this 4 Core or Quadcore profile

Smooth Operator v3 by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
This profile utalize all 4 cores on demand and serves as being a balance between battery and performance. Its as smooth as possible and utalize the full cpu power while operateing sensibly in governor scaleing.

Hydra
Eclipse and Kamikaze clash with one another in this hybrid profile (BIG thanks to @mamba720027 for the amazing work done on Kamikaze!). This is perfect for those who favor one or both of these profiles. With the merging of some of the essential performance and battery elements of each profile as well as a few minor adjustments, this one also stands as it's own profile and it flies!.

Ghost Rider by @galaxys3man30
this setup can benchmark on 1890,1944 and 1998 and its been really good on battery even thou its a performance setup think im going to call it ghost rider cuz its a sleeper yea it shows good battery life but behind that is the raw performance that is on demand when needed.

*Stardust v2* by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~7~13)
This Profile I put together is based on the "AbyssplugV2" governor.
Everything is tweaked and the profile can run by itself or either use the "smooth operator V2" Script or Luigi's "Hydra" Script.
Both are found in Post#8 of the OP. The choice is yours.

Crimson Dragon by @mamba720027
This is a profile that i put together from a lost in the thread Dual Core profile "Lazy Dragon". What was suppose to be a V2 Update of it turned into a 4 Core profile and something totally new, Crimson Dragon. This profile is a variable of Performace and keeping things balance. Its very smooth on TW and produce great results on AOSP as well threw testing and feedback. Please enjoy this new addition :good:

I hope you're planning on removing all the S3 related links, and replacing them with S4 related links. Also, since this is the AT&T/Canadian device forum, you really shouldn't have links to Verizon/Sprint/T-Mobile stuff.

The goal is having universal mods and tweaks. I don't have an S4 so I can't comment if there are any specific differences. Most of the info posted should be fairly universal and can be applied to the S4.
GalaxyMan the founder of team kernelizers has an S4 and I'm sure will update the OP as needed. The S3 sprint forum has been pretty active with users providing governor tweaks and support for the KT Kernel. The governor tweaks are mainly geared to improving battery life or a balance of performance while also improving battery life. I can say the S3 thread has helped a lot of users, myself included to get amazing battery life. Hopefully this will apply to the Galaxy S4.
Hope to generate a little interest in this thread. I'm using an extended battery, Zerolemon 6300ma, cost $25 with case, it's three times larger than the stock battery that came with my Galaxy S3. The biggest battery drain is data and the screen, my carrier is Sprint. Not sure how much drain AT&T data connection has on battery. I will try to post more regarding battery life on this single charge.
nevermind
What about adding @zepplinrox's V6 Supercharger scripts in here?
Sent from my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 Badass
Battery dropped 1% over night. Data was turned off. With data off I'm still able to make and receive calls, send and receive texts. Can not receive pictures in MMS messages when data is off.

Good question. I haven't read of anyone involved with Team Kernelizers running the Supercharger scripts so I don't know much if anything about them. Quite a few, myself included are having good results running Crossbreeder, use url below for more information. Some users in the Crossbreeder thread are using it in combination with Supercharger.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150
Crossbreeder takes the lag out of Android system making the UI snappier. It doesn't improve benchmarks, but it defiantly makes things sappier. I use the KT Kernel slightly undervolted and underclocked at 1.1ghz, Stock my device runs at 1.5ghz.
ktoonsez the developer of the KT Kernel has added frandom into the kernel so it works great with Crossbreeder. It's best to use a kernel that has frandom in it.

Thanks for the reply! I, myself, have dabbled in using them together and separately, but find that running just the V6-Supercharger itself yields the best results of either or in combination. (To each his or her own though, I suppose.)

Every device is different, plus everyone uses their device differently, runs different apps etc. There is no magic bullet that's going to have the same impact or improvements on every device.
Thanks for your feedback
I day 6 hours off charger with 10 hours of screen on time with 71% remaining charge.

Jim you rock bubba keep it up man one of the founding fathers of the team n my threads one of the one encouraged me to do it just a small update to everyone we are working on the tkmod so we can it back up n running for everyone jim keep up the great buddy ur doing awesome bro

Battery is still at 71% this morning. While sleeping I always have data turned off, this helps a lot with battery life.
I use black wallpaper, inverted apps when possible, the color black doesn't use juice from battery with our screens. An article stated black wallpaper can cause ghost images, in my case I don't feel it will ever be a problem because I keep my brightness low, which also saves battery. The next best color for battery life is green.
A new mod you might want to check out, includes Crossbreeder.

V6 is endorsed by Team kernelizers. Zepplinrox's scripts are his own and may not prefer that his work is in every mod on xda, installing them together is completely compatible and is a good mod. Any lags from tkmod itself is being worked on now actually, as the mod is going back into alpha testing till it's refined. Cheers, maybe you will tinker with the new mod once it is released.

/* Introduction */
SmartPack-Kernel Manager is a heavily modified version of official Kernel Adiutor (KA), which is originally developed by Recognized Developer @Grarak. All the credits goes to the original developer. This app is initially developed as a companion app for my kernel projects (SmartPack-Kernel), to achieve better control by implementing features that are not yet available in the official KA. After extensive development for nearly a year, now I feel that SmartPack-Kernel Manager improved a lot (though it look alike) and contains a bunch of useful features to that of its base app. Hence, I decided to share the app here for anyone interested.
/* DISCLAIMER */
Code:
Please use this app at your own risk.
I am not responsible for any damage to your device.
Everything you are doing on your device is at your own risk.
This app is so powerful to mess up your device/OS if you use it incorrectly.
Further, before using SmartPack-kernel Manager, please be aware that,
This app requires ROOT ACCESS.
Most of the features available in this app require kernel-level support.
/* Features */
Most of the features available in the official KA.
Option to flash recovery zip files while running Android OS, that is even without rebooting to custom recovery.
A simple and user-friendly Custom Controller, which is totally different to that of the official KA.
A Script Manager to easily create, import, edit and execute any properly formatted shell scripts.
CPU Input Boost (Sultanxda).
Simple MSM Thermal (Sultanxda).
K-Lapse Support (tanish2k09)
Advanced Control for Fast Charge (yank555.lu) & Boeffla Charge Level Interface (Lord Boeffla).
Boeffla Sound Control with per-channel headphone gain (Lord Boeffla)
Significantly modified Faux Sound (Faux123) Implementation.
In-built Spectrum Support (frap129), contains 4 different profiles namely Battery, Performance, Balanced & Gaming.
Adreno Boost (flar2).
Largely modified CPU Hotplug page (e.g. added MSM Sleeper (flar2) & advanced tunables for Alucard hotplug).
A bunch of other advanced features added to the thermal page.
Boeffla Wakelock Blocker (Lord Boeffla).
Real-time Charging Status
Display Backlight Control (Min & Max).
SELinux Switch.
WireGuard version information.
App version information and Auto-updates in About page.
LED Blink/Fade support.
Auto kernel updates (download and auto-flash proper kernel in few clicks) for SmartPack-Kernel
Also compatible with stock & other kernels
And much more, please check the change-logs…
/* Downloads */
Please note that package id of PlayStore and GitHub versions are different. Which means, you can't simply switch between them easily. You may consider the PlayStore version as the stable one and the other as a beta. Please stay on the one you like the most.

Useful Tips...
For users
Auto app-updates are implemented into the overall page of this app meaning you will get update notifications once you open the app. Please give access to Internal Storage upon the first launch, which is necessary to download new updates to the internal storage, to avoid crashes. Alternatively, a manual update check is also available in the About Page (no more applicable after the release of this app on Play Store)
While development, it is highly probable that I break (accidentally or intentionally) something which is available in the official KA. If you find something, please report here.
For Kernel developers
If you are planning to add support to Boeffla Sound to your kernel, you have to do some additional work to make it fully compatible with this app. Please have a look here.
Maximum Backlight control should be accessible for many devices. However, to get access to Minimum Backlight, you have to do some work to add the respective sysfs. Please have a look at this commit (should work on many devices).
To-do
Fix Performance Tweaks quick tile (Battery tile) not showing properly (Fixed in v6.2)
Improve Profiles
Improve Boeffla Sound and Charge Level Interface (Fixed in v6.6) implementations to work without special patches
Improve Custom Controller (Fixed in v9.2)
Improve per-channel gain implementation for Boeffla (Fixed in v6.10) and Faux Sound (Removed)
Suggest me?
Hey @sunilpaulmathew nice to see a topic only for the manager. Is a nice fork, been using it instead of the ex manager mainly cause of your kernel.
I shall take this opportunity to say that the settings enabled when you load a profile does not stick after you import one. After a reboot it will go back to previous settings.
So, maybe some people using my profiles on klte may be having this issue without notice (may be worth to advertise to them).
The way I do to make them stick is to go on all the settings, one by one, they will be at the values set by the profile, then I edit and click the ok button, only that way they are written into the on boot script, as shown on the On Boot tab.
Hi, thanks for the info. Do you mean the profiles are not applied after a boot even after setting "on boot" as shown in the attached photo? If so, I have to look at it more... I know that there are enough rooms for improvement here and there

Not exactly. I didn't tried that option. This option would conflict somehow with the changes I make all the time probably. I mean they didn't get saved to be applied next boot as if Ihad made input myself. There's a on boot tab next to the profile tab, all changes I make go there.

Ahh, I got it. Unless you made the changes in each tab, it won't be added to the profile, right? I think it should be like that. Anything else, other than the stuffs you edited, is beyond the scope of the app. Anyway, I'll look at the possible options to deal with it...

Well, it will not be added to the profile too, but the issue is that it will not be enabled on boot as if I had input them manually. If when I import a profile and the app would import the settings as if I was inputting them, they would be saved to be enabled at boot.
I didn't test it but I'm not sure what would be actually applied, the profile set to be applied on boot or the actual settings I input manually. Some have to take precedence or they will conflict somehow I imagine.
I don't want a profile to be enabled on boot, because I change things a lot when I'm testing, I ratter my manual inputs to be applied, and, I hope you got me now, I wish when I import a profile I didn't have to go option by option manually setting (although I don't need to actually input the numbers are already there) them so they can be applied by the app itself, not the profile.

Hi I noticed that the spectrum quicksetting tile only switches between performance and balanced; is this intended and why? I really miss the battery profile there. Hope you can add it in a next release. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the message. I recently noticed that issue. I'll try to fix that issue in the future updates. Meantime, please use the "Battery" button under "Performance Tweaks"...

You know what would be awesome? If we could save our profiles as actually gaming, performance, or battery profile so I could change between them with the quick settings tile buttons.
Also, where can I find the configurations made by these profiles?
I'm trying to find the profiles settings on the source code, but failing at it, can you help me on where can I find them?
Thanks for your work!
The idea is good, but seems really difficult ATM. The thing is that the spectrum settings actually works more likely an independent app to that of the rest of the part.
Anyway, here is the current tweaks
https://github.com/SmartPack/SmartP.../anykernel_SmartPack/ramdisk/init.spectrum.rc
Please be noted that Gaming profile is not added yet to none of the SmartPack kernels. So, only 3 profiles ATM, and the changes are very limited. The balanced profile is made to accomodate the tweaks suggested by you. Further suggestions are most welcome (especially for Gaming, and anything you like)

Ok, so it only changes that, but I'm puzzled on that virtual memory configurations. They don't seem to be right? Although I don't know much about it, but battery, balanced and performance don't seem to follow a logic progression. For example, dirty background ratio of 70 on balanced? Performance is 5 and battery is 10, while the default here is 20. 70% starting to write dirty data while on background, I don't see why. From my understanding, the sooner it starts to write it, the sooner it releases more free memory but also it'll use cpu/power/battery doing it. And also it will spend less time per flush session? Unless it's doing it all the time.
Dirty ratio of 90 on balance, 20 performance and 10 at battery. Again balance value is way weird.
Well, I need to study more about virtual memory, that's only what I could think right now reading some explanations about it. I have to experiment on it but have no idea on how to directly see the results..
I'm totally against the believe in that limiting max freq we would be saving power. If the governor is well configured, it would never climb to higher freq unless the load tells it to do that, when necessary, if it's necessary it would spend less time doing it's job (well in most cases, it depends on the job, if it's doing high load job like, installing apps, or loading a app/game, is what I said before, but if, as an example, the job is to scroll the screen, as soon as you stop scrolling there's no more job, doesn't matter if was lagging or not, not lagging would be the only benefit of a higher frequency and consequently higher power usage) , and therefore go back to idle faster and save more battery. That's the philosophy behind my settings, don't climb higher then you need to do the job, and go back to idle ASAP, as I read on all the 'internet literature' I could find about it.
I researched about virtual memory to tweak it to klte and I'm sharing my findings on the kernel topic, so you can use them on the app if you want.
But I believe this setting highly depends on memory amount, so it may not be good to put them on the spectrum profiles, if you ask me, I would like to have governor tweaks and nothing else there, because it really is a matter of compromising, and having 2 choices we could choose between 'I don't care about a little lag while browsing instagram' and 'I need my game not to lag' right from the quick settings tile, would be greeeeeat. Be again, it is device dependent also. Not a great setting to put on there, unless they are really generic tunables like the ones that come by default.
BUG
There's a bug on the manager, when I change any value on the Virtual Memory tab it goes insane, and changes all the values, but is only visual, cause if you changes tabs and go back, the values are all ok and what you changed persisted. But if you change it again it happens again.

But I believe this setting highly depends on memory amount, so it may not be good to put them on the spectrum profiles, if you ask me, I would like to have governor tweaks and nothing else there, because it really is a matter of compromising, and having 2 choices we could choose between 'I don't care about a little lag while browsing instagram' and 'I need my game not to lag' right from the quick settings tile, would be greeeeeat. Be again, it is device dependent also. Not a great setting to put on there, unless they are really generic tunables like the ones that come by default.
BUG
There's a bug on the manager, when I change any value on the Virtual Memory tab it goes insane, and changes all the values, but is only visual, cause if you changes tabs and go back, the values are all ok and what you changed persisted. But if you change it again it happens again.

Fully agreed with your findings in the Spectrum script. Because of my ignorance, it could be highly possible that I made many mistakes there. Regarding under-clocking, I was also against to restrict the power of CPU until I found that it has benefits if it used properly, although the extent of underclocking in my Battery profiles are still debatable. Anyway, let's talk more kernel stuff in the kernel thread.
But the VM part, I can't see that issue. What feature you changed and the whole insane things happened? Anyway, I don't think that it is a bug of the app, rather VM page is designed to show changes instantly (of course, with a refresh time).
Finally, to all, I added a To-do list in post#3. Please suggest if you like to see any specific features in this app. Although I'm not a super experienced developer (adding most of the features are pretty simple though), and I do not have infinite time to invest for this, I will try my best to satisfy all.

Any feature that you change on the VM page will cause all the values to change, it looks like they all go one setting bellow. It's weird.
