Wi-Fi Power Management toggle:

echo Y > /sys/module/dhd/parameters/wifi_pm (pass Y to enable and N to disable; its N by default). This option only appears after the wifi is activated

Sound Control:

Volume boost from 0 to 62 (replace X with the number of your choice). It's 62 by default:

echo X > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/sound_control/volume_boost

Fsync toggle:

It's enabled by default. Enabled = stock IO speed while having data integrity; disabled = more IO throughput but less data integrity

echo N > /sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_enabled (N to disable and Y to enable)

Thermal Throttle toggle:

It's enabled by default. Careful playing with this, if this is working when the device heats up it won't be throttled down to safe values so if you don't know what you're doing just don't play with this, it's not my fault if you **** up.

echo N > /sys/module/tmu/parameters/throttle_enabled (N to disable and Y to enable)

How to activate the special sdwatcher binary:

This binary is special *buzzwords incoming* and will get rid of the fuse mounting and get rid of the /data/media symlink which causes excessive Media Scanning load - basically just mounts the internal sdcard as ext4. Battery life gets a nice boost using this binary. Instructions on how to use it at the second post. All credits go to Greg White, I did nothing but testing it for him.

To activate use ADB or Terminal Emulator:

mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /system/bin/sdcard /system/bin/sdcard.bak
rm /system/bin/sdcard
cp /sbin/sdcard /system/bin/sdcard
chmod 0777 /system/bin/sdcard
reboot

Don't mess with this if you don't know what you're doing.

INPUT_BOOST_FREQUENCY:

Change whatever frequency you want the device to boost to when the screen is touched:

echo N > /sys/class/misc/touchboost/input_boost_freq (N = frequency you want, e.g: 200000 (200Mhz), 1200000 (1,2Ghz)

TCP Congestion Algorithm interface

To check all the available options:

sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control

To change to other option:

sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=NAME_OF_THE_ALGORI THM

Great work

welcome franco used your kernals on my nexus aswell as your update app.. anychance you will be makeing a galaxy s3 updater app

OMG ITS FRANCO!

Always used your kernel on my nexus, always been a perfect fit!

Thanks!

Now the names are appearing :)

GNex kernel was great so the temptation of S3 rooting, custom roms and kernels is getting stronger every day :)
