# ROOT : THIS APP USES ROOT PERMISSIONS , IF YOU AREN'T ROOTED CONTINUING WON'T HELP YOU !
Quad Core Manager+ is the topmost and ultimate solution for battery saving !
Quad Core Manager+ is an app to give you control over your cores . QCM+ allows you to turn off/on your cores at will , thus , it will help you save a lot of battery !
QCM+ has a big set of features , the most notable are :
- Manual Cores Control : This app provides a pretty simple and interactive UI mostly constituted from buttons and text , allowing you to simply press a button to turn off a core , and another to turn it on . How simple ! Moreover , QCM+ checks your cores' statuses asynchronously to keep you in sync with your cores' current statuses !
- Persistent Mode : Some phones are programmed to control the cores in a frantic way ! This persistent mode (found in menu) will restrict the system and anybody else from changing the cores' statuses except this app , which will give you 100% control over your cores !
- ACOO : You just turned off your screen and your cores are still awake consuming battery . But WHY ?! This app is the solution ! QCM+ allows you to enable Automatic Cores On/Off (ACOO) service , which will turn off your cores when you don't use them ( turn off the screen ) and then on when you turn the screen back on ! Plus , it adds the ability to customize which cores you want to turn off and on , and it adds the option to have two advanced and alternative modes for turning on/off your cores !
- Start On Boot : Saves you time ! Instead of reopening the QCM+ app to relaunch the ACOO and Persistent Mode services every time you reboot , it will automatically start them on boot ! Of course this is optional and disabled by default , to enable it , press Menu > Start On Boot !
Purported upcoming features : Manual Control from the Notifications area - Widgets !!
After the 30 July trial , a new trial logic will come , it will allow you to use ACOO for a 15-day trial , and then a donation will be required for continuing the usage of the ACOO feature !
- And much much more to see inside the app from optional transitions to the first core toggle !
If you want to suggest a feature , or report a bug , please send it to my personal email : [email protected] ...
For help , try pressing on the little question mark buttons , they will help you understand , for further help , contact me over my email above !
Quad Core Manager+ on PlayStore : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=seaskyways.quadcoremanagerplus
WARNING : For those people who see that their cores are being re-enabled or re-disabled by them selves , go to Menu > Enable Persistent Mode > Enable , hope it works that way , otherwise you know then that your device isn't compatible with this app !

For this reason I made the Persistent Mode , check it in the menu of the app !
Also its recommended if you are using the ACOO feature to enable ACOO Compatibility under Advanced Options , and then enable Alternative ACOO toggle located at the bottom !
Unfortunately not working on my rooted HTC One. App says I don't have root....

I love how people leave negative comments in the play store when it clearly says beta. The worst thing, is that im betting they wont help to try and make the app better. Saddens me that people do this. Saying it freezes and giving no info is not helpful. Using acoo toggle on galaxy nexus. Going to wait until I have a full charge and see if it helps battery any. Although I noticed in acoo it says that 3 cores will be controlled when I only have 2

Its a small visual glitch that I left behind while programming for that I am finding more broken stuff that I have to fix , however if Core 2 and 3 toggles are useless on dual-core phones , and they absolutely do nothing to the phone , not advantageous nor disadvantageous ... And btw , I like the way you thought , Thanks for the support !

I see this all the time. People want to complain about it not working and they want it fixed. Its hard to fix with no information. So on a dual core using acoo it wont shut off core 2 while sleeping? Im going to be upgrading to a Note 2 soon which is quad core. Why my attention was caught on this app. Core 2 says it can be shut off. So in acoo only core 2 should be controlled as thats the one that can be shut off correct? Would this app be equivalent to a kernel governor using hotplugging?
Just about to install to see if it helps in any way. Btw I'm on CM10.1 SIII
Will report back with feedback

Knowing that the main core is Core 0 , then Core 1 is the 2nd core

I edited my post above so dont kill me for asking again. Is this the equivalent of a kernel governor that has hotplugging? Yes, you are right, 0 is core 1 and 1 is core 2 BUT, in the app it shows me being able to shut down core 2. So using that logic previously stated, core 2 would be core 3 and I dont have a 3rd core.
I have just installed and even when I enable persistent mode and try to toggle any of the cores on, even though they do toggle within a few seconds they turn off again.
Again I'm on SIII with CM10.1

Htc one X, tegra 3, SentinelROM based on cm10.1 works so far well, i will test This app for few days, thx
Ok, so I found a flaw.... Unless you meant to do this....
When you manually want to shut off cores the logic = core 1 = core 1. core 2 =2 etc.....
In acoo logic = core 0 = core 1, core 1 = 2 etc........
Just reviewed my code and no it isn't a flaw , this is a part of my exact code :
Code:
if(sp.getBoolean("isAlternativeOn", false)){
if (checkBeforeEnabling[0] == 1){
if (core1) {
Executable.disable_core(1);
}
if(checkBeforeEnabling[1] == 1){
if(core2){
Executable.disable_core(2);
}
if(core3){
Executable.disable_core(3);
}
}
Log.i("ACOO", "Disabled Cores !");
}else{
return;
}
This code is run if you have Compatibility On and Alternative Compatibilty !

Are you often in lack of RAM ?
Do you find that your Bada device is slow and you want to boost it ?
I have the solution !
Note : This thread includes all the means you can use to optimize your Bada device, but for regular user. I'm using a Wave II with Bada 2 but all those tips should work in Bada 1.2 or even in Bada 1.0. But the roots of settings for example won't be the same.
All comments / additional tips will be appreciated.
The tips are classified below.
I will finish the other categories later and maybe add some screen shots
Battery management
You want to improve power management ? Check this.
One of the things that takes the much of battery is screen :
- Go to Settings => Display :
_Put Brightness to 1 (Default 5)
_Set backlight time to 15 secs
The CPU takes also some power, you can "downclock" it if you find that your device is very smooth.
-Go to the Dialer and compose the : *#7092463*# => Go to 3 : Device test => a keyboard will appear => type 8 (Common) => type 8 (DVFS) => I advice you to take 3
WARNING :
- The frequencies values shown aren't the one of your CPU, to check the right one follow this root :
Type *#7092463*# in Dialer => 3 : Device Test => 4 (Device) => 8 (Performance) => 1 (Cpu Perf)
This menus will be helpful in other paragraph but after a reboot those settings auto-reset. So you will have to change those settings each time you start your phone.
Turn off all the wireless connections :
- If you don't need phone : Settings => enable flight mode
- If you need phone, just turn off Bluetooth and Wifi (and Data on Chinese firmware)
Turn off Sound and Vibrations :
- Settings => Sound => disable Sound and Vibration
Note : You will also improve your battery if you follow my advice bellow on RAM and some options.
RAM and processor optimization
Here you will learn some tweak to boost your Bada device. It includes RAM optimization, processor and some other tips.
Processor overclock
Samsung set by default the CPU in Wave I and II to 800 MHz. In fact the normal speed of the processor is 1 GHz. Let’s do it!
First to prove that CPU is set at 800 MHz do this :
Type *#7092463*# in Dialer => 3: Device Test => 4 (Device) => 8 (Performance) => 1 (Cpu Perf)
View attachment 1117422
To set the CPU to normal speed do this:
*#7092463*# => Go to 3: Device test => a keyboard will appear => type 8 (Common) => type 8 (DVFS) => type 1 (Static level 0)

}
You can check again the CPU speed that increases to 1 GHz.View attachment 1117425
Warning:
Those settings auto-reset after a reboot, so you will have to change those settings each time you start your phone.
The frequencies shown in the menu aren’t the one of the CPU.
REQUEST : If you have an other Wave that the I/II, please tell me if this works also on your device.
About RAM :
First of all will show you how to see the current allocated RAM
Type *#7092463*# in Dialer => 2 (Debug Settings) => 6 (Memory state) => 1 (Current memory state)
There you can see the RAM :
-The total RAM
-The RAM allocated by system and apps
-The fragmentation level of the RAM
Those information will be very useful to check to improvement you made on RAM.
Home screen:
-Close empty pages ( by “zooming out” with fingers in Bada 2)
-Close unused widgets (the one in the left panel and in pages)
The widgets that take the most of the RAM are watches and the weather widget (in Bada 2.0 and Bada 1.x). Closing them will free a lot of RAM.
Theme:
-Use rather the Default theme than custom (Settings => Display => Theme)
-Use static wallpaper
I advise you to reboot your device every day or when the RAM fragmentation is higher than 20%.
It will “clean” RAM and you will have a fragmentation level to 1%.
Close application using the end call button rather than using home button.
Close apps using the task manager (long press on home button)
Other settings:
Some widgets and some apps have an “auto refresh time”; the problem is that when you wake up your device every widgets and apps updates itself and it slow down your device! So set the auto-refresh time properly to avoid this. Simply go to the widget/app settings.
Pay attention to the weathers widget, they also have an auto scrolling time that can be increased or deleted too.
In lock screen disable the weather or limit the amount of cities, the auto refresh time and the auto scrolling time. (Personally I use only 1 place)
Go to Settings => Display => Lock screen => Weather
You can disable some unwanted notification in Settings => Notifications.
You can also do this if you want in Social hub.
You can change the auto refresh time of emails in :
Settings => Email => Email account => tap on "your email account" => and change the sync schedule time
For the moment I have no more idea… But certainly there are still some tweaks that I forgot.
I will update my post if I remember something. Feel free to comment/add something.
In the next post I will give some tips about memory in internal storage and in SD cards.

It was good few years ago. New types of batteries (which wave has) can be destroyed by doing this. That's why phones have hardware sensor to cut power if it goes too low.

You are speaking about the calibration, right ? But does all waves have those type of battery ? I mean does the other Wave than the I,II and III have also this type of battery ?

Tested. Unfortunately after few hours I discovered that frequency had returned to normal. Probably when device go to sleep mode with low frequency, power saving rules change freq to minimum. And after awake return "dynamic" mode.

My software is: S8500JVLC2_S8500OJVLC2_TUR
I had this two times. Without restarting phone.
I am interested in why are you using Turkish firmware
Because I was searching for a new version, but I didn't want chinese software. And I found this Turkish version.
is there any way by which bada can be wiped off completely,before flashing it with new firmware
Won't the battery actually decrease if i bump the speed up to 1 ghz ?

maybe not work in bada os overclock and therefore restarts the normal frequency, or only when opening applications run at maximum frequency.
but you can type * # 8740 # and you will enable CP UART for better performance, but the battery will be consumed faster

If anyone get any other FC when enabling CPU temperature read, please report it again, since it should be fixed. Thanks.
New version with Rom management. Only available for CWM Recovery!!
I think you have a minor typo in OP 'turn off CPU 2' should be 'turn off CPU 1' as cores are CPU 0, CPU 1 (duel core) then CPU 2 and CPU 3 (for quad core device)

Yes I know that, but for not developers people seeing a number 1 is like the first CPU will be off. Since you normally start counting with the number 1. I did name it number 1 in one of the tests and I received a lot of e-mails asking me if its safe to turn off the first CPU and why I'm not doing it with the second CPU. So I decided to change the number so that way people wont get confused.
So basically you are right, but I did it on purpose.

I have some problems.
1. I am on stock ROM and Kernel..
In all mode, can not set CPU frequency more then 1.2GHz and less then 200MHz. Is this due to my phone kernel limitation?
2. I have also installed some power saving apps like Lux brightness, Greenify....
Is this app will kill all these app?

1. Dude stock ROM kernel means are u rooted? I dont think so.. If so u need a OC kernel..
2. If apps r trying to wakeup i wont allow them to stay long.. I think LUX has no issue. Greenify i hav to check and let u know.

Ya change to ICS OC kernel ur stock kernel doesnt support OC.... Try Dorimanx kernel its OCd upto 1600 Mhz.. If u more concerned abt battery dont OC... Thx to the app i m getting 4+ hrs of screen on time...
Downloaded this for my nexus 4 and the idea of this app is pretty cool just open app and tap on 1 of the battery or power modes BUT i have a problem with this app which im not sure is normal or can be fixed, when i choose 1 of the power options e.g performance and i then want to switch to powersave or standby it does not change, i can tap on it and it will say powersave on but u can see on cpu its still on performance so basically have to reboot everytime i want to switch which obvioisly is very annoying
Question regarding Defence Feature
I am new to this app but eager to learn more about it and to increase it's effectiveness..
I am puzzled a bit about the Defence feature...
Does this feature identify apps that are using excess power so that one can disable them?
Any other uses for this feature?
thanks

Automaton is an Revolutionary step in Automating your Device using Sensors
It is built on the idea that Locking & Unlocking can be more Simple,Fast using various Sensors
XDA EDITOR IN CHIEF Will Verduzco says: “Magically” wakes the device right when you want to use it
The most innovating app for Locking & Unlocking your Device.
Tons of features to come yet.
How it Works :
The most innovating app for Locking & Unlocking your Device.
It uses various sensors of your device like Proximity, Light, Accelerometer, Magnetic Sensors depending upon
which Sensor you choose.
Using, these sensors the app determines whether to lock or unlock the device using special algorithms used in app.
Key Features :
1. High Accuracy :
The app has high precision of determining whether to lock / unlock device preventing accidental lock
2. Flip Cover Mode :
-Proximity : For normal Flip Cover available
-Magnetic : For an modified Flip Cover which an be achieved pasting an small piece of magnet to the flip cover
(Contact me for more details)
-Light Tablet : For tablets not having Proximity Sensor can use this for their Flip Cover
-Fuse Proximity + Light : Used when more accuracy of locking / unlocking needed & also prevents accidental lock-unlock
-Fuse Shake + Proximity : Close the flip cover & shake the device to lock. Open the flip cover & again shake to unlock
3. Pocket Mode :
-Proximity : For normal pocket keeping
-Shake
-Fuse Proximity + Light
-Fuse Shake + Proximity
-Split Shake & Proximity : Both the sensors can be used for performing the function & also functions of the both can be changed using Split Function
4. FUSION of sensors :
Combination of sensors for better accuracy & preventing accidental lock-unlock
5. Splitting of Sensors :
Both the sensors work independently & can also be set different functions (COOL)
6. Sensor Function :
Your the master select what should sensor do, currently only 3 options are available
- Lock
- Unlock
- Lock & Unlock
Choose what you like & have fun
7. Split 2nd Sensor Function :
You can define another effect for another sensor opening lot more opportunities.
For more details refer Tutorial in App.
8. Disable Lockscreen :
Lock Screen can removed for easier unlocking (Till App is ON)
9. To Keep Screen ON :
If your reading something & wanna keep the screen ON till the phone is turned over or Cover is closed then use this
10. Sensor Sensitivity

After reading about people complaining about the "poor" battery life of the HOX with sense 5 I decided to write a guide to improve it. By following all of the here-mentioned suggestions you will be able to easily achieve screen-on-time of about 4:30 hours without recharging!
You don't believe me? Look here:
On my second charging cycle i got around 5h14 of screen on time using youtube, browsing, whatsapp, reddit and music.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The following hints are mostly based on the suggestions of "Riro Zizo" click here and thank him!
1.disable haptic feedback: that way the vibrator inside the phone will stay always of and don't use battery
- also disable the haptic feedback in other apps like the keyboard, etc.
2. disable touch sounds, pull-to-refresh sounds, dial pad touch tones, etc. same idea like with the vibrator. speaker will stay of, don't use battery
3. disable all animations (settings --> developer settings -->advanced). GPU will be used less, run at a lower frequency and again save battery
- your phone will also seem much faster
4. use an other launcher (e.g. apex launcher)
- htc sense launcher uses very much battery (gsam battery monitor said around 17% of my battery)
- blinkfeed auto-sync also drains battery
5. lower screen brightness (my 5h+ screen time was achieved with stock auto-brightness but this should improve it even more)
- either enable the "reduce screen brightness" option in power saver (and keep it always on) or get an app like "lux auto brightness" to keep the brightness not higher than necessary-
- also reduce the screen timeout time.
6. delete unwanted apps
- htc has put a lot of bloatware on this phone but most of you won't use apps like "htc watch". there is also a buttload of google apps included that will have the need to sync and keep the phone awake. remove them.
7. disable unnessary sync-accounts
- by clicking on your email under the google account in "accounts and sync" you can choose which apps you need to auto-sync.
- also if possible increase the sync intervals to an acceptable duration
8. keep wifi, bluetooth, gps, nfc only on when neccesary
- add a widget to the home screen to toggle between them. you probably only use gps when you're on your way to work navigation and wifi can also be disabled when outside of your home. even if you're not actively using these connections there will be various apps that will still try. the weather app for example will use gps and data/wifi instead of just data/wifi to update its information
9. disable the backlight of the capacative buttons
- self-explanatory i hope
10. don't close apps
- with a few exceptions (games and apps that will still contine to work the same in the background) there is no need to close apps by pressing the back button a hundred times or swyping it away inside the running-app-screen. next time they will have to be loaded into the RAM again, which slow down the start and uses more cpu cycles.
11. remove unnecessary widgets
- they also update themselfs everytime you unlock your phone with leds to higher battery drain.
12. install a custom kernel
- this kernels often includes more up-to-date stuff and other improvments like added functionality
13. tweak kernel settings
- reduce the maximal frequency of the cpu, choose a less cpu-hungry scheduler, undervolt, etc. there are many different things you can tweak that will improve the performance and the battery life.
This are my current settings:
Kernel: Alex-V Kernel v. 2.6 PA3
scheduler: deadline with 128 kb read ahead buffer
frequency: 51mhz - 1000mhz
smart dimmer: active
multicore power saving: 2
gpu 3d scaling: on
gpu max freq: 420 mhz
undervolt: all steps -50 mv
governor: smartmax
remember: every phone and everyones needs are different. I am someone whon doesn't play games on his phone (because ****ty tegra 3) so this setup is good enough for me to keep a good performance for everyday use.
Wow nice will try it out cause my sense 5 takes too much battery

yes thanks that's what i meant.
it is not neccesary to this the kernel i mentioned in the 1st post, you can use any kernel you want, that has governor and frequency control (which basically includes every custom kernel available for sense 5 besides stock)

Woah, thats one long HOX if judging from screenshot lol, jk
i forgot to add that i was also able to reach a really GREAT stat....about 6h and 25 minutes or so with interactive 1,3ghz max, [email protected] and gpu scaling disabled with Alex-V 2.6 pa2...phone was away from charger about 11-12 hours...also played a bit a game so it's f#cking insane and awesome...the phone is not that bad...but some are having a slightly different chipset in build quality so it won't be that good like maybe mine or your bat life..
My phone seems doesn't like 2.7 pa3
When unlock the phone from sleep , the screen has some scratches, and even it it's too slow. I will try 2.6pa3, hope it will be solve all the problem

Lol. It should be related to driver related problem. The screen turns on 1 second slow and there are some very tiny white black white black screen shown for 0.05 second like.
