What's a good scheduler for downloading torrents? - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any suggestions on a good I/o scheduler for downloading torrents? I download alot and my tablet seems to lag a lot at anything over 1Mb/s. I was wondering if playing with the scheduler might help? Thanks...

Use atorrent and limit the max connections from 64 to 32 in bandwith settings

How do I disable Touch Booster?

Hey guys, touch booster is really annoying on this phone. It pushes the phone to 1.06GHz everytime I touch it, and is starting to bug me.
Is there anyway to keep it scaling up properly?
I'm no expert at this stuff, but isn't this fast jump in CPU clock what pretty much makes Project Butter possible?
If I understand right (and I probably don't), I think this might have to do with with governor in-use. If your rooted; try using a different governor and then touching the screen.
Great, so now people are complaining about Project Butter's features... ok
How exactly does something like this bug you?
People are getting way too picky with this phone now. Relax, its a phone guys

The CPU goes up when you touch it so it can be responsive and quick to your inputs. How is this so annoying?
If you root it you can lower the max or change the governor buy chances are you will lose much of your responsiveness.
I understand that it is good for us to discuss issues and problems but some of the things I am seeing here are just really nit picking and complaining about things that are not bad at all. We are a spoiled society of humans, some more than others i guess.

Get some CPU control app and change the minimum frequency from 1GHz to 384MHz.

Under clocking will save battery in most cases but ot will also make your phone sluggish and slow depending on how much.

That will make your phone run so slow and crappy... Why have a decent cpu if the plan is to chop it? This defeats the entire purpose of having a 1.5ghz clock speed..

You have no idea what you are talking about.
Check the meaning of "MINIMUM CPU FREQUENCY".
P.S. O and btw I'm changed it to 384MHz on my Nexus 4. AND........wait for it........my nexus 4 is not slow and crappy........woo mind blown!
What I find interesting is on the nexus 4 the governor is on demand , and the scaling range is 0mhz- 1026mhz ( you can check using CPU spy +)
However on the nexus 10 , the governor is interactive and the scaling range is 0mhz -200mhz
I wonder why that is

that app is broken.
Try No-frills CPU control, or even AnTuTu CPU Master.
Is it interactive on the nexus 4 then? I just checked on my n10 smd it still says interactive

I'm using no-frills and the default is ondemand, scaling from 1GHz to 1.5GHz.
What I changed is only the minimum frequency from 1GHz to 384MHz. Nothing more.

Ask Google.
I have no idea. And I don't have a Nexus 10.

Nexus 10 is a dual core tablet, not a phone. Check your PC some time or laptop. They scale totally differently than a phone does.

[Q] Which governor does the Nexus 4 use by default?

I thought that Google used Interactive with "project butter" enhancements. However, when running stock, I checked an app and saw that it was running Ondemand instead of Interactive. Was this changed for the Nexus 4??
Someone must know this or at least verify what I'm seeing!

I believe most nexus devices come with a kernel that is on demand.
Here is a nice guide about governors http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017715

Nexus 7 under clocking itself

My nexus 7 keeps under clicking itself to 1.5GHz from anything.
I have stock rooted with Trinity kernel 4.2 using tkt to over clock anyone have any tips

It's called 'saving power'.
As long as it doesn't lag and clocks itself up to maximum when required, there's nothing to worry about.
Or you can get some CPU clock app and set it on maximum performance. But don't be surprised if you can boil eggs on it then and the battery dies in 2 hrs :good:

I ran my N7 at 1.7 (using Trinity) without any heating problems. Battery life was acceptable.

clear the data for tkt and reboot. if you are using tkt, you dont need a powerhal script, since tkt runs it automatically after opening it.
Does Tegra 3 really need overclocked? Having used Tegra 2 I can say that could definitely use a little bump but so far T3 is keeping up with me and I can see a big difference between T2 and T3. Makes me wonder what T4 Wayne has in store.

does it need it.. probably not. do we want to overclock anyways.. yes! btw, its underclocked by default(its rated to 1.5ghz). i use it at 1150mhz as a daily btw.

What is powerhal and do I need it.

Did a search n didn't fine much. What is powerhal and do I need it.

of you are trying to raise your cpu speeds(overclock) and they keep reverting to the default speed instead, then you need it. if you dont have a problem with overclocking, your speeds stick, then you dont need it.

Music lag on note 2

Hi all, I have galaxy note 2 and I have flashed AOKP Rom a couple of weeks ago. I bought the Samsung 64 GB MicroSD Pro Class 10 Memory Card which has 70 read speed, 20 MB/s write speed but the music lags on any and every music app. In every 5 or so seconds, music stops for a split second and then resumes. I can't seem to figure out what the issue is.
Is the music lagging when you put the songs on internal storage?
Or maybe you can try to format the sd card.
Its because the kernel problem of some roms at pegasusq based go to the kernel settings and change cpu baseline ondemand or something else that not pegasusq

This seems about right. However, I've been through nearly all available governors on my current kernel with little improvement.
Raising the minimum cpu frequency to about 400 has helped but it's not an ideal solution.

maybe you have a lot of app that running in background or wakelock ? I have great at ondeman min cpu freq 200 and usin spotify.
I had this issue in both official and dn3 and tried raising min frequency to 400 mhz also 600 mhz still it does exist..
I didn't find this issue in OmniRom at all, and before that I had Samsung Touchwiz which also ran very smoothly, the lag is quite irritating during music. I have minimum amount of background apps (antivirus, facebook, gmail) as of now, still no improvement.

Windows 7 allowed me to format the card in exFat format, I have tried that, I also tried fomatting the card via the phone itself, it still didn't get rid of the lag.

Nope.
It's cpu related and when I used to use ondemand with my old 4.1.2 rom this was never a problem. Unfortunately the 4.2.2 kernel I'm on only has silly governors that cause more problems than they solve and ondemand is no longer an option for me.

Thanks for the tips guys, I am using CPU Tuner now, I have kept the minimum frequency to 200 and music is playing nicely. I guess the default frequency was set even lower than that. Which would explain the unreal increase in the battery life that I was experiencing since I installed this rom on the phone.
