System Tuner

Hi all,
I've got a problem with System Tuner. On every ICS ROM I try the CPU clock and voltage settings won't stick. After I reboot the phone they go back to their defaults. Hence, I've got 3 questions:
1. Does everyone have these problems? Did I not check a setting or something?
2. What alternatives to System Tuner don't turn the second CPU core permanetly on?
And 3. Is there an init.d script which lets you set the clock speeds/voltage settings? Because I would rather not use an app at all to do that.

Set your CPU clock and voltages, then press Boot settings on the cpu tab( small button ), press Re-apply CPU Settings -> On boot completed.

Yes I did that, but the minimum frequency doesn't stick.

Nobody?
I'm using No-frills atm, but does that turn CPU1 permanently on?

My setup is similar to yours except I'm on ARHD 6.5.3.
I can confirm it is changing back to 192Mhz min. Could be kernel related as I'm on bricked 3.0 v5 too. Maybe we should ask showp-1984 or it cold be related to System Tuner.
Did you have tried another software like setCPU?

Hi there I'm on same Rom but with serbas ken and I use system tuner pro and mine sticks even after reboot, on a off chance do you have oc demon disabled in boot settings

Could you be more detailed Do you mean " Re-Apply CPU settings" if so yes I had it enabled. I will reflash stock o any other kernel and check if it's going to solve this.

I also have this problem with system tuner pro, now i'm using setcpu and the settings stick.
using vipers 1.1.0, tried anthrax/bricked/faux123 all didn't stick.

You know you.could ask the dev of super tuner. He's always very responsive anytime I've had issues. Also having different versions backed up in Ti helps as well cause a new update fixes one thing from a slew of phones but might just break yours. Having a backup versions means you can go back restore and test.

In relation to your second question, what kernel are you using? Faux's kernel has the second core on by default. System tuner doesn't have the ability to turn it off. If you want it offline until it's needed, try seb's or bricked kernels instead.

System Tuner 3.0
Just to let you know System Tuner 3.0 was released some time ago and provides improved CPU handling, new GPU, Gamma, MP, thermal controls on many custom kernels and a lot of other new or improved features (entropy, fstrim to name a few).
This is now a spawn of Android Tuner, and benefits from a larger user-base, improved stability and performance.
It now has the ability to turn on/off CPU cores, with a dedicated screen-off option. Only if custom kernel allows it though.

I love your setting
Well i'm on the phone so i didn't see something but.. i advise to put row as the main scheduler (best for ssd hardware) and the conservative governor modified with the sampling rate min at 50.000.. the same for the ondemand..
If you need i'll patch those 2 for you.. (i don't know how to use github but i can patch the *.c)
Anyway the kernel seems good.. i'll test it tomorrow

Works good with correct uv :thumbup::thumbup:

this is the best kernel with so many controls including LED which i was missing coz note 2's led is much brighter than ours
now i can fade in and out
cheers !

I think now I really need to root and install CWM on my phone!!!!!!!!
Features are great man. thanks. keep up the good work

When ever I change the display controls noting happened ..same in charging control when I change the voltage it does not increase

great work best kernel for n900

If you enabled "enable register hook and master sequence" in screen tab under synapse this settings works perfectly!
Sometimes charging settings some roms applied after reboot the phone. My phone on Chrisleko Rom V4, and it works perfectly without restartat the phone. (the charge control menu not a voltage settings)

Yes it works now ..what about AC main input current how to control it ? Will new features be added ?

synapse not work in screen setting in cpu and io it works i use trickster mod and its work when enabledmaster sequence or register hook

Cortexbrain script should be great. found this piece of information from dorimanx weblog,
This script will manipulate all the system / cpu / battery behavior. Based on chosen EXTWEAKS profile+tweaks and based on SCREEN ON/OFF state.
When User select battery/default profile all tuning will be toward battery save! But user loose performance -20% and get more stable system and more battery left.
When user select performance profile, tuning will be to max performance on screen ON!
When screen OFF all tuning switched to max power saving! as with battery profile, so user gets max performance and max battery save but only on screen OFF.
This script change governors and tuning for them on the fly!
Also switch on/off hotplug CPU core based on screen on/off.
This script reset battery stats when battery is 100% charged.
This script tune Network and System VM settings and ROM settings tuning.
This script changing default MOUNT options and I/O tweaks for all flash disks and ZRAM.

Keep up your work. Thanks again.

Sview Cover
Hi halaszk,
Everything working properly and I can UV more than other kernels. Stability is perfect.
Features you add are perfect too.
I wanna ask about two thing,
1. My Sview Cover does not work. This was happen on hannry kernel 2.0A before and solved on 3.0A. Also it is working on pekaka kernel.
2. could you put sched_mc control on synapse.
Thanks for your effort and knowledge.

After a reboot it worked for me.

First of all thank you halaszk for the best kernel for our note 3. Cheers and keep up the work. Just a little confusion. On set cpu n cpu spy the min frequency is 100mhz (the whole frequency table is different than the one in synapse) I'm a little confused due to this. Can somebody explain?

[Guide] Post-Root Common Issues, Bugs, and Fixes

This guide is meant to help those who have rooted their phones and are now finding it slow, laggy, messy, etc.
I've been seeing a lot of posts repeating common problems that have been fixed by other members of the forums, so I'll compile a list of the most common bugs and fixes for them (the ones that can be fixed) in this guide so people can refer to it instead of swamping dev threads with the same questions over and over again. The quicker we can get through the common problems, the quicker we can get to fixing the ones we don't have solutions to so far.
Disclaimer: After installing the ENG bootloader, you are going to experience less battery life. There are things we can do to improve this, but nothing I have discovered so far will get you back to stock battery life... except re-installing stock ROM. Also standard disclaimer that all of the fixes here are done at your own risk. I am not responsible for any of these fixes breaking your phone.
Bug #1: Phone is laggy after rooting the phone/Battery is down the tank.
Fix: The phone is (partially) lagging because the ENG bootloader automatically sets the CPU governor to "Performance." While this is supposed to lock the CPU frequency at the maximum values, it does cause a lot of heat and possibly throttling. Additionally, the max core clocks are set to 1.593Ghz instead of their actual maximums. Not every CPU Tuner will allow you to set the big cores separately, so look around for one that does if you don't want to use Kernel Toolkit.
First, use Flashfire to flash one of two zips provided by psouza4 on our sister Verizon Galaxy S7 (Edge) threads.
1. Kernel fixes & tweaks V15
2. Kernel fixes, tweaks, & Debloater
You need only flash one of these two zips. One additionally debloats the system, one does not. Choose whichever suits your needs.
What the zips do:
Adds a rotate button to the native gallery app.
Adds a shortcut call button in the call log next to each logged call.
Adjusts several CPU tunables, which fixes phone lag and battery life issues.
Disables "No SIM" popup when no SIM card is present.
Disables roaming data by default.
Disables secure storage support, which fixes Wi-Fi passwords not saving issue.
Disables Verizon provisioning for Wi-Fi tethering/hotspot (will still use your data plan, of course).
Enables ADB to run as root by default.
Enables CPU idling/sleeping, which fixes phone heat issues.
Enables mock GPS locations.
Enables native call recording feature in the dialer.
Enables native Wi-Fi calling feature in the dialer.
Enables RIL power saving features.
Enables scheduled messages in the native messaging app.
Enables the camera during calls.
Enables unlimited contact merging.
Enables using the new 3GPP2 Profile ID (Verizon exclusive).
Fixes various 'searching for service' and other cellular network connectivity issues (SMS/MMS not working, calls not working, etc.)
Knox apps, drivers, and data are removed (fix+debloat version).
Prefers LTE network.
Raises the contact name length limit to 1,280 characters.
Raises the maximum SMS recipient limit from 10 to 90.
Remove nagging 'unauthorized actions' security notification (fix+debloat version).
Removes VoLTE icon.
Removes bloatware and/or apps that can be downloaded from the Play Store and don't need to live in /system (fix+debloat version):
Next, install a CPU Tuner utility like Kernel Toolkit, then change the governor from "Performance" to "Interactive." Also change the max CPU frequency of the little cores to 1.593Ghz and the big cores to 2.150Ghz while you're at it. Leave the cores at their default minimum frequency. This will go a long way to improving the speed of the phone. Also make sure you that have the new settings to apply on boot. Every kernel manager should have this option somewhere.
Note: Although the max frequency in the settings screen will drop to some number, as long as you can see the CPU ramp up to the new settings in the information screen, then everything is fine. You can test the max frequency by turning the screen off and then back on.
Then, install sEFix and set entropy to "Ultra."
Lastly, install L Speed and:
Code:
-Main Tweaks: Turn on
-Battery Improvement
-OOM Killer
-Kernel Tweaks - "Light"
-CPU Tuner: Turn on
-CPU Optimizer
-LNET Optimizer: Turn on
-Google DNS
-Faster Streaming
-Faster Dormancy
-IO Tweaks: Turn on
-IO Boost
-Partition Remount
-RAM Manager
-Balanced
-Seeder
-Moderate
Their individual effects can be read up on here.
Bug #2: Weird "hurricane" icon in the corner.
Fix: This is related to the imsservice.apk which controls the RCS icon and the VoLTE icon being displayed. Someone has a modified version of the Note 5 imsservice.apk with these removed. You can find the apk HERE in the OP's attachment. HOWEVER, you will push this to a different location than the location mentioned in the guide there. You have two choices, you can either push the apk via ADB from you computer or you can copy the file using a root file manager.
ADB Method (Assumes you know what you're doing. Don't copy the code verbatim if you don't know what the command is doing):
Code:
adb remount
adb push imsservice.apk /system/priv-app/imsservice/imsservice.apk
adb reboot
Root File Manager Method:
Transfer the imsservice.apk to your phone. Anywhere where you'll remember the location is fine. Open the file manager with root compatibility and copy the file to /system/priv-app/imsservice/ and overwrite the imsservice.apk already in the folder.
Set permissions of the file to 0644 or rw-r--r-- depending on your file manager. You can set permissions using most file managers.
Restart the phone.
I've included the stock PD8 imsservice.apk as an attachment below if anyone has issues with the modified one from the guide.
Bug #3: Notification warning that system has been modified.
Fix #1: Disable com.samsung.android.securitylogagent & com.tmobile.pr.adapt using your favorite package disabler. This will hide all notifications associated with this app as well as the root check that you might have encountered.
Fix #2: This fix requires Xposed. You can follow the instructions to install Xposed HERE.
Then install the Xposed module NotifyClean, activate the module, and reboot the phone. You will then use this app to block the notification under the package com.samsung.android.securitylogagent by clicking on the package so that it is highlighted red. The notification should disappear!
Note: This app can also be used to hide the icon for WiFi Calling if it's annoying you. You can still use the WiFi calling function while hiding the notification.
Bug #4: I keep losing root.
Fix #1: Secure boot/startup has caused the loss of root. So make sure you DO NOT SETUP the secure boot option when you're first setting up the phone or any time afterwards. This is the same option that forces users to type in/swipe in their password on a screen with a black background. This is not the normal type/swipe your password on your lockscreen after a boot.
Fix #2: Disable Security policy updates. I've also heard that people who leave this option on lose their root after a couple of reboots. You can find this setting under:
Settings > Lock screen and security > Other security settings > Security policy updates > Automatic updates (Turn this setting off).
Fix #3: Disable auto-updates for apps in Google Play Store. It's possible that SuperSU auto-updated, breaking root.
Fix #4: Disable automatic updates for the phone. I don't think these run anyways on modified software, but it can't hurt. You can disable the applications responsible for automatic updates using Titanium Backup, EZ Disabler, or any other package disabler you know of. The packages to disable are:
com.sec.android.soagent
com.wssyncmldm
com.samsung.firmware.nfc
com.samsung.android.firmware.tsp
Bug #5napchat: Unable to log into Snapchat.
Fix #1: This happens if you attempt to login to Snapchat after installing Xposed. Just make sure you login to Snapchat prior to installing Xposed. Done.
Fix #2: If you've already installed Xposed, you can:
-Do a clean install through ODIN, and re-root your phone, install and log into Snapchat, then install Xposed.
-Uninstall Xposed by flashing THIS through Flashfire, uninstalling the Xposed framework app, and clearing the data on your Snapchat app. Then login to Snapchat and re-install Xposed.
Bug #6: WiFi passwords aren't being saved
Fix: Use a root file manager like Solid Explorer and go to /system and open/edit build.prop. Scroll down or use the "find" function to search for ro.securestorage=true and change it from true to false (ro.securestorage=false). Save the file. Done!
If you guys have any more bugs that you run into, please feel free to post them here. Anyone who knows of any additional fixes to these bugs or solutions to any bugs that others post, also feel free to add them in the comments and I will compile them into this guide when I get a chance.

Not every CPU Tuner utility will let you set the individual big.LITTLE cores separately. Try using the one recommended or look for another one that does allow it. Kernel Toolkit is the only one that I remember off the top of my head. I'll also make an edit in the post to avoid further confusion.

hey all, does anyone have or has experienced your incoming calls not being recieved? i have called myself and others also and it either rings until voicemail or it just goes straight to voicemail,
any ideas whats causing this?
thanks,

Great post! Unfortunately I'm having problems with smart view after rooting. Every time I try to screen mirror it works but it is extremely laggy making it unusable. This has only been an issue since root and I've tried mirroring to three different devices and it's the same with all of them. I followed the instructions in this thread to see if these tweaks would help but they didn't change my screen mirroring issue at all. Is anyone else out there experiencing this?

little help please.
Followed the guide for bugs 1 & 2 exactly as mentioned. Used the root manager method for bug #2. Now i keep getting this pop-up that the phone is not responding...Any solutions to get rid of this?
thanks

Just started for me too. Doesn't go straight to voice mail but i don't get calls and cant call out now. Seemed to happen right after i replaced the imsservice.apk and rebooted. The annoying hurricane icon is gone now, just at the expense of making and receiving calls lol.
Did you also happen to overwrite the imsservice.apk?

Looks like I forgot to mention changing permissions on the file after you copy it over. From there, the easiest way to restore it would probably be to adb push the file over since you don't need to reset permissions if you push through adb. This should correct the crashing and allow you to use your phone.

Leave the min frequency of the cores at the minimum otherwise your cores will always be at max frequency which is something you definitely don't want.

I switched the minimum to 307 and max 1593 for small cores. For big cores minimum 307 MHz and Maximum is 2150 mhz.
Its not letting me save these numbers. I had min set to 307 and when I left the screen and went back it jumped back up to 1593

If you look at the information menu, do you see the cores ramp up to the 2.150 Ghz we set? If it does, then the settings have been saved despite it not reflecting on the settings screen. You can force it to ramp up to max but turning the screen off and then turning it back on.

This is the expected behavior. This just means that they will clock up to the max when there is a high load, but then drop back down to the lowest frequency to save battery when there is nothing to be done. Everything is working as it should.

Thank you for your help. Does your phone run hot when gaming or charging? My charger also gets very very hot while charging.

Mines was hot just with normal usage. I used every tip and fix that people suggested but it was still pretty slow and lagged if I had a game running and a couple of more apps running. Battery was OK though.

CPU frequency settings jump around?

Hey guys, for some reason my CPU settings jump around on their own and I can't set the frequency. This happens on multiple apps. I have already disabled "per-app profiles" in the battery settings. The only apps I have installed that deal with the CPU settings are 3C Toolkit Pro and Kernel Aduitor. I've tried installing SetCPU and setting the frequency there doesn't do anything. Any idea why this is happening? I'm on a LG G3 running Resurrection Remix for 6.0.1.
Edit: I think it might have to do with the thermal driver. Is it possible that this is the case? It stopped doing the jumping for now, so maybe it's because it cooled off.

Phone comes to crawl after a day or so. Please help

So I did try googling and tried searching XDA. All I was able to find was a few people having an issue with mm ROMs but most people saying its not a problem and I wasn't able to find a fix.
I'm using slim 6 aosp based ROM with lightning kernel version 28. I/o scheduler is set to noop, read ahead at 1024... Would like to go higher but I'm not sure if this is causing an issue with the slow downs, rotational storage turned on, low memory killer set to very light, dirty ratio at 20%, dirty background 5%, swappiness at 5%, and I didn't touch wakelocks., and I do not have any xposed modules installed. If you want to know more about kernel settings, let me know.
Should I change something in the kernel? If I go into dev options, I can set background to 2 processes and it does fine. But that setting does not survive a reboot.
Please link me to a thread or tell me how to fix this.

Anyone know anything?
