[GSM/CDMA?] [CPU OPTIMIZATION] EternityProject cpufreq Hotplug Governor - Motorola Droid RAZR

Welcome to the EternityProject DualCore Enhancement Thread!
What do we have here?
EternityPRJ_MCPU is a CPUFREQ governor that optimizes SMP doing a fast poweron/off of the second core.
It will make your device to act more smoothly and faster in some conditions.
How-To:
After downloading and extracting the module archive...
With ADB:
Code:
adb push cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko /data/local/
adb shell
su
insmod /data/local/cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko
exit
exit
Then use an Android app, like Script Manager, to autoload it everytime your device boots (optional) using this command (as root):
Code:
insmod /data/local/cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko
For activating it, open SetCPU and select the "eternityprj_MCPmot_hotplug" governor.
That's all.
Download:
Module: HERE
Source: HERE
Making it to work with every RAZR out there:
If this won't work on your RAZR, please post the output of this command:
Code:
cat /proc/kallsyms | grep cpu_up
...and your ROM version. I'll make it to work for your RAZR, too

how does this work? is it like a kernal????

It's a kernel module.

Confirmed working on Verizon CDMA Razr. Thanks!

---

Is there a way to use terminal emulator to do this from phone?

Same here just used Root Explorer and terminal to do everything. So far performance seems the same will see how it goes over a day or two

Do the same commands you should do with adb shell, only thing is you need to put the module in /data/local in another way, e.g. cp /sdcard/Download/mymodule.ko /data/local/
Benchmarks performance will be the same, it'll work only in real world operations as it will only hotplug and use the CPU1 faster.

Yes. Copy the file into /data/local using root explorer or the like.
Then, with terminal emulator, just run the two lines of following 'adb shell' (su and insmod lines).

You won't notice it, it will drain like 3-4% more battery in a day.

How does your device feel when you open an application? When you surf with your browser? When you play into menus etc?
Does it feel more reactive?
This does effectively add reactivity to your CPUs, thing that won't change benchmarks results because benchmarks will take the CPU to its MAX prior starting to calculate. That's why something that works in real world operations isn't making benchmarks results to be higher.

---

Yeah, after installing I definitely see a nice smooth scrolling performance, and unlocking is really fluid as well.
Great work, Kholk! You should take this over to Rootz, it's like a zombieland in there, everyone's doubting the phone and such. :x

---

i have installed SetCPU and activated the correct Governor, everything looks fine, no errors.
How do i know if this works? (i could not set a script with script manager).

---

Any permission need to be granted ?
read write execute??

---

@b.o.n.s
If you've selected the eternityprj_MCPmot_hotplug governor, it's working.
@xalainm
Just do what I wrote on the first post.

---

Though it's in the source, it's always good form to credit the original authors.
Edit: Oh, come on. You've even changed MODULE_AUTHOR.
Edit2: I see the claims in your OP regarding performance, but can you walk us through the algorithm used here?

Can u give me the exact command for script manager... for some reason i can't do it

This is what I have done in Script Manager.
create a new script name it whatever you like and put the command below in the script,
Code:
insmod /data/local/cpufreq_eprj_hotplug.ko
tick run as root and run at boot
save it.
