[Q] Kernel Governors - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I'm curious about these CPU governors: boosted, hybrid, wheatley, and darkside. I've been searching the forums for quite a while now with no avail. Can someone kindly explain to me how these work, or post a link to a thread with explanations of the said governors? Help will be very much appreciated.

thats for wheately ....
All the weird named governors are ["optimised"/"tweaked"/"smoothed"/"funky awesome marketing english words" ] governors based on Interactive/Ondemand/Conservative governors ....
So just think of them as pre tuned conservative/interactive/ondemand governors ...

Thanks, man. I guess I'll just try each of them. Darkside sounds like a performance-oriented governor based on Interactive, though.

CPU Smartass Governor?!!

is there a kernel for the 2.2.1 froyo that supports the "Smartass" governor, such as the one found in CM7?
there's a smartass governor in CM7? where???
Haha nice one, smartass! ^

Sopimpro said:
This GINGERBREAD (2.3) one supports it...
Other then that, I've never tried a kernel with it.

i think (not sure) that all cm7 kernels support the "smartass" governor.. but i'm looking for a froyo kernel for "stock/based on stock" roms that support smartass..
i come from a HTC android culture, where the smartass governor was widely available/used.. and i have to say it beats all the others in terms of usability (speed and responsiveness) over other governors like interactive, ondemand, and conservative..
so it would be great if such a kernel exists...
if anyone knows something about this, please do share your thoughts..

[Q] Which governer to choose? CM7...

Can someone explain to me what are the differences between all the governors in cyanogenmod 7? Which one do you use and which is by your opinion the best for best performance?

1. Governors are dependent on kernels, not ROMs. Here is a short, but solid explanation about the most famous governors:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843406
2. I'm using the interactiveX and smartass governors (I switch frequently).
As explained above, the best for performance has to be the performance governor. But it's also the lousiest for battery life (sometimes 50% or more decrease compared to other governors).

thank to you both...you got a thanks button sori that i didn't google it it's ondemand now...looks like a good governer...and smartass too...

This is difficult to say, as it depends on your hardware, apps, settings, region, carrier and usage ... and what is "best" for you (best performance or best battery life).
So, you may have to check out the available governors and schedulers yourself.
Here is a very good thread about io schedulers and governors => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817

[Q] Best Combination of Governors and I/O Schedulers for Every Need

To the experts, could you please provide us good combinations of CPU governors and I/O schedulers for every need, like for saving battery consumption or for good performance for lww and other same devices?btw im using CM10 wiht LuPus kernel in my LWW. thanks in advance!

You should have checked this first - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1989824
It has a detailed description for many governors and i/o schedulers.

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y
Good to go. As far as I know, pretty much all of them do by default these days.
Woo hoo! First custom kernel! Thanks for this. I would like to see sound mods(equalizer, bass boost, general headphone + speaker amplification) as well as LED mods(brightness, fade, etc) brought to the device via kernel. But thanks again for the early work. Will flash tonight!

This is T Mobile why is it over here?
LulzactiveQ govenor
Man that was fast. This is exactly what I was waiting for. Will be testing this tonight. Coming from a note 2 and my favorite Governor was lulzactiveQ, is there any technically reason why that governor would not work with this kernel. I know its a derivative of Samsung PegasusQ and could be specific to their framework. If it's possible. I would love to make that a feature request. If not, I just appreciate the hard work your devs are doing.

The original thread is T-Mobile and it was their source that was published to coincide with release of the device.
The kernel, on the other hand, uses the included spr configuration with the NIE ramdisk (Both Sprint).
Haters welcome, too

It should work, but it'll need to be rewritten. I'll try to find a copy that works as a base.

Samsung has a knack for unified source. They did it on the Galaxy Camera and that one was vzw, AT&T, or WiFi only. At least these are all relatively similar.
Booted up, everything good so far.

I was having a hiccup getting all configured. It's one thing to build a few kernels separately, but it turns into a circus building 5 simultaneously.

Damn .. That's a lot. But again thank you . its working good.
Anything and everything that's in Ktoonez's kernels (been using his for years for of my Galaxy S devices but now I decided to go with the note) ;P
But generally want to see cfq, bfq, sio, noop, row, for I/O schedulers and zen, intellidemand, smartassv2, ktoonservative (if that's possible of course, not sure if that is exclusively available for his kernels).
And of course OC and UV for the CPU and GPU as well as governor support for GPU. Changing the TCP protocol would be cool because I've had a lot of good fortune changing it to "lp" from westwood.
P.S. Not demanding features or an ETA of course, just getting somethings out there I would love to have haha! Thanks for bringing this over to Sprint.

cfq, noop, and row are included by default
sio and zen were added
intellidemand has been attempted but it didn't work at first. Now that a lot of other stuff has been sorted out, this may be revisited.
OC and UV are already a work in progress
GPU has about 5 governors included by default
TCP is already covered.
