Enable turbo mode at boot - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Can some tell me if this works?
How to install:
unzip the file
(in terminal)
su
mount -o rw,remount /system/block3/mtdblock /system
cp (where the init.goldfish.sh file is located on your sdcard ex. /sdcard/init.goldfish.sh) /system/etc
then reboot

First off
Nobody do this.
Clarify first for everyone. What's happening, what should happen, what is the init.goldfish doing. We don't want people bricking their device!
Secondly, i dont believe the stock kernel has support for custom init (if my memory serves)

Thx biggem001... I was going to say same thing!!! About the "what is it... And what does it do? "

There are three mode that the tablet can be in performance, normal, and power save mode. By default it is on normal. In normal, there is a cpu and fps cap.
So what i did is tell the tablet to be at performance at boot.
It should give better boot times and maybe overall better performance.
I don't know if it does it or not. So can someone test it out.
It shouldn't brick your tablet.
and yeah, maybe the kernel might not allow it.

yeah, the tablet cannot use custom scripts yet (init)
not until we build a kernel that allows it

Idk if it would help boot times but couldn't you just use setCPU to set it to Performance? Unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean by that. I have it on my tablet just to check some things and in case I want to raise the lowest speed and such. By default it is set to the interactive gov. Which is different than anything I haev used this with before. Most are on On Demand gov. Which might be the reason the TFP gets such good battery life. When I switched to On Demand gov it went from lowest to highest and on interactive it moved from lowest to some midrange speeds to max speed.
I could be completely off base here and if I am just lemme know

you are correct, but we have no control over the kernel so we cannot use setcpu

So the Kernel will do what it pleases no matter what I do in SetCPU? Well that saddens me lol. I can move the bars to different speeds and change the gov. but I never tested to see if it really set it or not. Time to test. Gonna lower the frequency and run Antutu and see what it says lol.

i believe so. check it to be sure. i know it can run scripts at startup with init support, and kernels have to have the ability to change clock speed. i donno about this one.. as its still stock...

No can't go over 1.4gh/z but you can underclock the max speed and over clock the min speed. fwiw which isn't much. lol

goldfish ONLY gets initialised when the image is run through an emulator (for example, from your sdk)

Moving to General as this is not relevant due to no custom kernel to take advantage.

[SOLVED] cpu won't scale back!

Hello I have been on CM7 7.1 with DC 8.9.1 since June 27th and today when i rebooted my phone it started to feel very hot so opened set cpu (I don't use it with drownings kernals) to see what the cpu was running at and it was pinned at 806 I know some reported this happening with drownings kernal some times but usually switching between gov.'s or lower and rasing the cpu setting corrects it. Well it didn't this time tried through cm settings also still no luck. I reflashed my rom without using dc kernal and still the same pinned at 806 unless I manually scale back and it will stick at what ever setting i put it at. Anyone have any ideas to correct this. I searched XDA and found no relevent posts about this.
what's your governor?
Sent from my Liberty
Never heard of that one before I remember smartass2 in the DC kernel was giving some problems. Did you try flashing the msm7227 kernel? If that doesn't work, I would try a full wipe/factory reset.
What were any of the changes (system changes, apps installed, etc) that you made to the phone prior to the problems starting?
Try using No Frills cpu
And try using an app called CPU spy.

Thanks for the suggestions going through recently installed apps now and going to uninstall them also going to run a fix permissions. Also going to try PCU Spy.
Sent from my CM7 HTC Aria
Okay deleted most recent apps ran fix permissions through rom manager and installed CPU Spy and The phone doesn't seem like its as hot as before but from the CPU spy it seems like the phone is either in deep sleep or at 806 most of time. Here's the screen shot of the results using smartass gov. After about 6 hours. Going to try another gov. And see what results I get

I get this SAME problem on my HTC Evo (but unlike you nobody cared to answer). I tried fixing permissions and that didnt work. I tried full wiping and going back to nightlies I previously used (where it was working for sure) and that didn't work. I tried 4 different kernels from 4 different kernel devs (sbc and non sbc)..that didn't work lol. My brother recently switched to CM 7.1 and the same is happening to him. I'll be keeping a eye on this thread
Are you flashing anything after you flash the ROM besides the kernel
Sent from my HTC Liberty S using XDA App
Nothing besides the kernal. Starting to think it was an app because I had four that were not from the market that I got from here on xda one was pins music mod and the other three were beta tests maybe one was not playing nice with my phone. After leaving my phone on the charger overnight with it set to never sleep when on charge because I use at my clock at night it appears to have set at 245 all night which is the minimum I have the CPU set to. So its definitely scaling back and going into deep sleep when not in use but still seems to spend a lot of time at 806 when on. Here's the latest screen shot of CPU Spy

With my understanding of the governors my aria with dc 891 is scaling correctly as it should. Although my phone should use more of the intermediate frequencies more than just stair stepping straight to max for whatever reason. In your case it seems that there is some stuck process making your phone peg at 806. To bad there isn't a app that tracks uptime of each and every app and process at work on your phone and how much cpu muscle it calls for.

You should be able to tell from Spare Parts. Both "battery history" and "usage statistics" should make it obvious is an app is maxing out your CPU.

IMO, the governor is functioning as it should. If it stair stepped it's way up every time a load was placed on the CPU, the lag would be quite noticeable.
What you're seeing is your phone sitting basically idle, with the exception of some short term background tasks running periodically. For example, if at the same time, you were to use BT to stream some music to a headset for a couple of hours, basically keeping a fairly constant load on the CPU, you would see a lot more cpu time spent hovering between 400 - 600.
I understand what your saying. When I originally posted this it was stuck at 806 and not scaling back I was watching a CPU widget on my home screen and it wasn't moving from 806 and the phone was mad hot and I was watching the battery drain as well. After removing the apps and running fix permissions it is now running as you stated it jumps up to take on what ever I am doing then scales back and waits. I don't. Know for sure what caused the original problem.
Just on a side note I also was using 2 year old class 2 SD card running s2e with 130 apps and cache both on sd ext. maybe my card was going bad and under class for the job so I replaced the card with a new class 4 16gb last nite may have had nothing to do with it but thought I would mention it. Thanks to everyone for contributing with ideas and suggestions.

Okay just happened again this time with quick system info app I think I found the culprit android.process.media it was showing 85% CPU usage. After doing some googling it seems to be the general consensus that it is a corrupt file on my SD card. When I replaced the SD card I formatted and created my ext. partition and then copied everything over from old card so I am sure I probably moved the corrupt from the old to the new. Problem is I have over 7gb of stuff on the card and don't know where to begin to find and remove the corrupt file or files. Any suggestions or thoughts?

Since you think it is a media file, copy all media files to a pc;then manually select each to play on the pc. Delete those which will not play correctly. VERY time consuming, but lets you save all the rest of the files.
Just an update when I connected my phone to my pc I got a pop up that said something along the lines of media device may have corrupt files and asked if i wanted to scan to fix so selected ok after the scan was complete I have never had the problem again. So I am pretty sure it was something on the sd card that was causing the problem. Thanks again to everyone who tried to help me out.

Also found some anti-virus programs can cause this - usually shut down the anti-virus scanning usb ports. Solved my issues.

Usually "Do You Want To Scan And Fix Removable Disk" is seen when a device is connected to a windows computer after being hot disconnected the previous time. If you have write caching enabled (helps performance) it's best to use "Safely Remove Hardware" from the system tray. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/10392-write-caching-enable-disable.html

[Q] Best battery life? ROM/Kernel/Apps

Coming from the Evo 4G, i saw a tremendous improvement in battery life going from stock to rom with netarchy-toastmod sbc-havs-more-cfs, no set cpu. Just the kernel alone was giving me about 25-50% more battery life easy, in alot of cases more. I went from needing to charge after 12-14 hours to needing to charge after 18-28 hours.
So what is the best kernel for the 3VO? Whats going to increase my battery life the most?
Am i going to have to go with a combination of kernel/setcpu (undervolt, underclock) to see an improvement?
I haven't found any kernel yet that gives me battery life like stock. However, my phone is always getting plugged in and unplugged all day when working on my ROM so I haven't had much time to fully test it and do a battery calibration. I would try the test SBC kernel located I'm General. I'm running that right now, always loved SBC.
As far as ROMs go, mine gets pretty good battery life. 19+ hours of usage on stock kernel with moderate use. Plus, the OC daemon is wonderful with the script I wrote for it.
i use gb sense has the most features
viperRom, the included daemon that controls the cpu clock speed is amazing here is some info on it.
-viperboy- said:
OC Daemon​
The OC daemon was created by rmk40 of Team Unity. I take no credit for the daemon, only the script I made to make it easier to work with. More information can be found here, but I will sum it up and explain the script below...
This daemon, written in C, completely eliminates the need for SetCPU and other CPU controlling apps. The daemon handles min/max frequencies for both screen on and screen off but it has one more trick up its sleeve... It can change the governor INSTANTLY depending on the screen state. I have tested it and I can tell you that it really does work instantly and I think this is going to be a great battery saver! I have set default values within the ROM as follows: Screen Off - conservative @ 192min/486max and Screen On - ondemand @ 192min/1188max. Using these settings, I get NO lag. Battery life is amazing, over 19+ hours for me with moderate usage! See for yourself...

Here is a link to the Rom
Thanks ill check out your rom, is it possible to add the oc daemon/script to my current rom, or is that something that has to be cooked in?
Been running Viper's Rom today, and 6hours into it, I have 65% Battery left. I'd say it is working well under moderate use and living in the sticks.
Im currently running a stripped down version of the stock rom , all bloat has been removed as well as a considerable amount of sense . That in itself improved battery life slightly .......I said slightly lol . Today is gonna be the first day with Netarchy's Silverneedle . As time progresses kernals will advance and become easier on the battery . Setcpu also gave a slight boost to battery life with a screen off profile as well . The current SBC kernel is based off Net's kernel but MS is still doing the adjustments to get the charging routine optimal . Much like his work in the 4G it took some tinkering to get it to be one of the crown jewels in the Evo 4G's bag of tricks . I have no doubt that once he is done with the adjustments it will be just as good for the 3D . The 3D has pretty good life out of the box with all things considered . Once the refining of kernals and roms gets to the sweet spot I feel you will easily see this phone last a day without an extended battery .
Viper gets my vote.

So is it possible for me to install the daemon/script outside of an entire rom, aka can i install it on what im using now? Just dont have the time to wipe/flash/restore right now. Soon ill give your rom a try.

OC on 2.3.4! (stable only up to 1.29)

I didn't see any threads about it, so please don't beat me down if it's been posted. Here's the direct link to download it as I do not want to post links to other sites here.
http://www.multiupload.com/0MJHTFZC2M
I'm sure some of you remember klquicksal? Well, he's still at it! Flashing the kernel now.....
Edit: After running the kernel for over an hour, the phone seems to have a lag to it. I'd go as far as to say it lags badly. onebenadams was dead on in post #2. I'm OC'd using SetCPU as the script from smokin1337 didn't seem to get it to OC. (the script I'm referring to is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248809 ). I'm going to leave it on my phone for a while to see if it runs better after it settles into the phone.
Edit: As felacio said on page 2, OC'ing past 1296 MHz will cause serious lag as it causes the phone to constantly operate at the minimum speed allowed by the kernel.
Tried RCMIX 5.0
I flashed this kernel and it didn't seem near as fast as stock plus not near as smooth. The battery life seemed poor as well...
I read that benchmarks dropped (which I personally don't care about), but that overall the phone felt snappier. Either way, it's his first release so I expect future releases to run better. I'm going to run it for a few days and see if it settles into the phone after a bit.
This should be in the development section imo...
Which evo is this for? Cdma or gsm?

Well, I'm not a dev and I didn't make this script, so I'm not going to post in that section. Not to mention, the dev that did tweak this kernel left XDA for reasons I won't get into, so I thought posting in general to let XDA members know about this was the best way to go about it. However, if the mods feel this should be there, then they can feel free to move it.
I'm not sure if it works the GSM model. I want to say yes, but honestly, I'm not sure if there is something between the CDMA & GSM models that will cause this not to work right on GSM.

So cdma? Lol gsm and cdma kernels are completely different and if you flash a cdma kernel on the gsm version or vice versa will inevitably give you a bootloop or worse...

Can't find much info on this one but I bet it's like all the other "falsely advertised" 2.3.4 kernels/mods out there in that you can't OC on a 2.3.4 kernel. I've seen a lot of "OC... works on 2.3.4" and what they really mean is that you can OC on a 2.3.3 kernel and it just "works" (without overclocking) on 2.3.4. Stupid, I know. I don't believe there is any way to OC a 2.3.4 kernel as of yet, but my guess is they are getting close now that the source is available.

Honestly, I'm still at work and I haven't gotten to play with it much. I get off in a few minutes, so I'll play with it some when I get home. There is a definite lag on the phone running this kernel, though.
I'm on Synergy 457 and flashed the RCkernel 5.0.
Overclocking is broke. Anything above 1.296 gets stuck at the lowest value your phone is clocked to. Nothing above that seems to work. That is why its very laggy when overclocked.

Yup, you're right.......reducing the OC eliminates the lag completely. Good call.......
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Update: You can OC up to whatever your phone allows if you set the minimum CPU speed as high as the maximum (using SetCPU, but a script may work, too). Just set a custom profile so when so when the screen is off, the CPU speed is at a minimal level to save your battery.
For now, anyway.......

Yep. Daz wadeye said. You cannot overclock 2.3.4 currently. When you can, the dev forum will light up with kernels. So far, only these non-legit claims that say they can OC 2.3.4, only when you try them, none can truly overclock a 2.3.4 ROM.

It's not completely broken....I'm OC'd at 1.3 with this kernel now right using SetCPU. If you go any higher than 1.3, it lags terribly because as felacio stated, it seems to run at whatever the minimum speed you have SetCPU set to.
Using SetCPU, I can set the maximum and minimum speed to anything between 1.2 and 1.7 and it works fine, but obviously you aren't going to get good battery life doing that. You can set a custom profile so when the screen is off, the phone is underclocked, but if you use the phone a lot (like I do), setting the minimum speed that high will drain your battery quickly.
However, with this kernel if you use SetCPU and go to only 1.3, the phone is OC'd (even if it's just a little bit). I have it mine at 1.3 using the ondemand governor and a customer profile set to underclock when the screen is off.

[Q] App to set CPU mode?

Hey guys! Just wondering, if any anyone has heard something about an app, which lets me change the CPU mode, from Quad-, to tripple-, dual-, or singlecore mode...
I haven't found any, yet. (Yes, I have used the invention, called "Google" and consorts)
Thanks in advance for good answers!
BTW: If you are interested why: My battery lasts about 3-4 hours.... -.-
I'll post a screenshot in a moment. I constantly recharge, but not for long, because I am constantly occupied with all sorts of stuff, so it may seen like the batery life is good, on some parts of the graph...

The system's scheduler, pegasusq, automatically powers down cores when they are not needed.
Reducing the core count has an adverse effect since they need higher clock speeds to compensate and thus require more power.
Your issue most likely is data network and/or apps misbehaving.
Please install BetterBatteryStats (free APK here in XDA) and show it's output after such a 4-5hour cycle.
Did you by any chance disable Fast Dormancy or have you checked if your provider supports it?

No, Fast dormancy is enabled. I'm not yet all to used to the S III, but from my knowledge of my old Nexus, I'd say it's an app, like you also said. But I close my apps, I'll post a better stat, tommorrow. Then hopefully we'll get some results. If not better, I'll go completely stock, just with root...

Does the RRC statemachine actually go to IDLE and remain there for several seconds without going to active again? (Well except if there is data traffic)
Or does it regularly go back to an active state (e.g. every 5 seconds)

Which ROM are you on?
CM9 (and afaik all other AOSP/AOKP-based ROM's) has a huge battery drain and other network-related issues (such as powering down the modem every other time)
Samsung-based ROM's should be fine

What huge battery drain are you talking about? I get awesome battery life on CM9.

Obviously battery life depends on the user and apps running, just cause it works for you doesn't mean it will for someone else.

You are pathetic. If you bothered to read, the post I quoted implied it was a widespread issue.

almost all apps can handle single core operation @ 1.4 ghz, so disabling cores will save you some battery. afaik you need a supporting kernel to achieve this. Im using siyah along with extweaks app, there you can select the number cores to use.
Is this what you're looking for? http://tinyurl.com/77fudrr

Hi,
There is nothing useless in XDA Forum and regarding issues of random reboots varun is looking into to fix it till then many of using app to fix use that....Don't say that useless coz if it was useless Dev's wouldnt have released any Rom...Remember always respect the Developers works has they put lot of efforts on it .....Its easy to comment like useless and all but you dont know how hard it is to fix issues/develop a Rom in practical....! never comment that its useless if u dont like it dont use it and dont comment simple

you will have battery drain but not much.atleast you can get rid of the random reboots and enjoy the rom.I am a moderate user so i am getting around 15 - 16 hours of battery..

because it always keeps the cpu active,phone just doesn't goes into deep sleep,so that's how it affects the battery life,
but yes on the other side there wll be no reboots.
I was just wondering, then why not lower down CPU freq every time you sleep your phone? As in, lower it to most lowest freq. Yea it won't go to deep sleep but at least no random reboots and battery drain.
Since I don't have this MI3 as of now, you guys can try by installing SetCPU and do some profile settings.
