I predict the update will be postponed by (at least) another week.

I don't want them releasing something half-baked, just because of lots of whining about them missing delivery targets.
join the betting and pick a date?

Best guess: Ensure that this is on one line:

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "/bin/echo 'performance' > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/pwrscale/trustzone/governor"


Nano seems to sometimes add line-breaks where it shouldnt (you can add -w to prevent this)

So, please ensure that this is ONE line

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "/bin/echo 'performance' > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/pwrscale/trustzone/governor"

I added a .txt file to my post, that you may use

At least part of the reason for this was likely that standard development practices, at least while I was working on Harmattan, involved a lot of reflashing. Daily, or more often, depending on how often you were multitasking in some cases. I was pretty resistant to this, but especially earlier on, it was hard to avoid.

Jolla on the other hand has been much more focused on getting upgrade paths working from the start. I reflashed my N950 a sum total of, I think 3 times, from when I started hacking on Sailfish in 2012 to when I retired it mid 2013. My Jolla devices have been a similar experience: I haven't often managed to get into a situation where I need a reflash, and when I have, it's generally been thanks to me doing something stupid not that I'd ever screw up my homescreen without USB rescue mode enabled, or anything..

This isn't to say that we're perfect, I'm sure we've made mistakes, but just that at least for a number of us, updating is a core part of how we work - not reflashing - and if the upgrade experience isn't smooth, we'd like to know why.

This is the GPU, not CPU governor. CPU governor is at:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

(and related tunables). The second core is also at cpu1, but 'mpdecision' (a qualcomm binary) will leave it switched off, thus, the sys entries won't be there a lot of the time unless you explicitly power it on, iirc something like:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

Note that while altering the GPU governor doesn't seem to have much impact on battery (more studies ongoing, which is why we don't alter it by default at this time), the CPU governor has a very real chance to mess with your battery life, as currently, it clocks down to minimum frequency very fast when idle.

This was a serious bug and it was consistent. It sent the same number twice intermittently and irritated the hell out of me.
I have not encountered that kind of behaviour, altough I have used the "send-dtmf-coded-numbers" with several different companies automated phone services.

Does your touchscreen feel otherwice "too sensitive" or something? It could be caused by HW failure of course, or by something you have installed on the device?

Thanks, the service script should be easy to modify

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
Yes, I noticed that, unfortunately ? changing that paramter has no effect, it is reset to '0' immediately.

Does this mean that while the Jolla device is dualcore by HW, only 1 core is currently running on the device?

hmm something goes wrong by me:


[root@localhost ~]# systemctl status cpug.service
cpug.service - Change CPU Govenor performance
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/cpug.service; enabled)
Active: inactive (dead) since Mon, 17 Mar 2014 13:33:01 +0100; 11s ago
Process: 2313 ExecStart=/bin/sh -c /bin/echo 'performance' > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/pwrscale/trustzone/governor (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/cpug.service




i check the line and its in one line not two.

I think it is good, the service is only supposed to run once after boot.

You can confirm with
cat /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/pwrscale/trustzone/governor
