Root [MOD]GPU Mod

[ndno]

No the files are the same. looks like we need to keep digging for more

I flashed back to Hyper 0.2 kernel and still no go Something must be wrong with my ROM if quite a few of you are getting the boost.

 

[lMonsterl]

NO USB PLUGGED IN.
Look at the 3D differences

[ndno]

Monster, have you tried yours with the Boost stock version and see if it works? Maybe it's your MBv2 ROM that has other settings that get it working. I'm on Sprint and I'm just using stock with the OCed kernel. I need to look at the file system on the ROM I have and set what the init script does on boot up.

Does anyone else who has Sprint stock ROM have theirs working?
How about the Boost folks and are you using MBv2 ROM?

I'm able to capture the kernel activities when the phone is plugged into the PC; hopefully, from the activity logs I can narrow down the where in the TWL USB power controller it's activating the mechanism to allow the boost to occur. From this, I should able to mode the driver to allow us to "activate" it on the fly.

 

[phreak311]

Neither the GPU nor kernel mod will work for me. Im on Boost with the latest version of MB and ZVC.

 

[ndno]

Monster, was reading your tweak here: xda-developers - View Single Post - [resolved] Revisiting egl.cfg

I tried all the different combinations in egl.cfg, still no go
Can you please post your /system/build.prop? I want to compare mine against yours to see if there's something in there that getting your phone to get that extra boost. Thanks!

 

[tombob]

Interesting, I am running ndno OC kernel v1.1 on Sprint and getting a nice boost in benchmark to around 2500 without this mod. Added this mod on top of the OC and didn't get anything else. Then plugged into usb and my benchmark went to over 3000. Very interesting.
edit: the big difference is that my 3D score is in the 400s without usb and over 800 with usb.

Yes, like me, the GPU mod didn't work for you either. It's supposed to give you the extra boost without you having to hook your phone up to the PC.

 

[cjreyes666]

Didn't work for me either running mbv2 with new kernel

 

[Apache Thunder]

Got MBv2. While I noticed a increase in the benchmark after installing the overclocked kernel, the GPU setting didn't seem to do anything.

Thanks for that LINK! I am going to try modifying the lines the other ways and see if i get the same reaction.

Thanks Monster for the build.prop. I do notice a few video-related differences (see bold - I may be missing some others) that don't come with the stock build.prop; it looks like you have yours tweaked, so maybe that's a clue. I'll try adding this to mine when I get a chance. Thanks.

I checked and my build prop matches those and I don't see a difference. Me thinks his build.prop isn't responsible.

OK. The only thing I can see that's making the USB trick work is that when you connect the phone to the PC via USB, the PC provides more voltage and current, allowing it to provide more power for the GPU? Though this assumption doesn't apply to just plugging to the wall to charge. :dontknow:

 

[mbwd]

Interesting, I am running ndno OC kernel v1.1 on Sprint and getting a nice boost in benchmark to around 2500 without this mod. Added this mod on top of the OC and didn't get anything else. Then plugged into usb and my benchmark went to over 3000. Very interesting.
edit: the big difference is that my 3D score is in the 400s without usb and over 800 with usb.

I have the same results: no speed bump with this mod on Sprint using the Stock ROM from Blood and the ndno OC kernel (tombob: HTF are you up at 2500??? I'm consistently getting 2200. What ROM are you on?).

 

[tombob]

Blood's stock zvc with ndno's OC kernel.

 

[wizardofwoz]

Not trying to ask for ETAs or anything but will there be a MBv2 for sprint anytime soon? If so we could easily test to see if one of monster's tweaks is helping or if there is a difference between the sprint and boost versions.
I'm psyched to see the recent boom in performance tweaks.. I can't wait to see what the next few months bring!

take my boost version. then download the build.prop from Blood's ZVC Sprint rom and swap it to Marky Beats. Then add the build.prop changes to the end (posted at bottom) and you have the Sprint version of MB

I have no way to test if I did this correctly since I am on Boost, but I did as you said and downloaded Blood's ZVC Sprint zip and took out the build.prop and added the above lines to it via notepad. Then opened MBv2 and replaced the build.prop with the one I edited. If that is correct then here is the >MBv2_SPRINT.zip<
I am no way responsible for any damage that could occur from flashing this ROM.

yep. the drop down and lockscreen will most likely say boost mobile tho.

So if you want to get rid of that, swap the framework-res as well, and systemui (just in case)

sounds good. I'll post it in the OP of that thread showing that u helped me out while ive been busy.

make sure these are not in the build.prop

that was a formatting typo.

Ok I am on my PC now, so should I replace the entire framework folder or just framewrork-res.apk, and I noticed the systemui.apk has the .odex file.. does that matter? And I need to go back and edit the build.prop and remove the [ code ] [ / code ] ?

doesnt matter u can do it either way. The beats drivers are in /system/etc /lib and /bin

Dont touch those three folders and try it out
