Did you flash a kernel thats overclocks your cpu like jacs kernel or whiskey.

I've read that apparently some Vibrants cannot handle the overclock. Might be the case if you did not install a OC/UV kernel as pointed out above.

As most overclocked kernal developers have stated if you experience freezing or force closing your device may not be able to handle overclock. Not all Vibrants can.

Anyone know a good kernel without OC?

I am running bionix 1.3 which has the stock kernel...i wanted to know if anyone knows a kernel that has improvements but is not overclocked because my phone can't handle it....it just keeps freezing up

on thing to try is not touch the "conservative" drop down box, in setcpu, that tends to royally screw things up, but why not just run the kernel you are running, but not over clock it to 1.2, just leave it at 1ghz? use setcpu to set it at 10000mhz then click the "set on boot" check box. it should be golden.
You can use any Kernel you want and just not overclock. I don't see why that wouldn't work.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes
(edited) after reading up a bit, i just installed JAC's Extreme kernel over bionix 1.3 that had kk to begin with, already its faster at startup, time to play around...

[Q] OC kernel problem

anybody here have the problem where you have a 1.2 ghz kernel 200min and 1200 max conservative
where it might get stuck at a 3d game and when listening to music and playing a game or scrolling through live wallpapers it gets stuck as well?
i used jacs kernel and core kernel and both do the same thing is it that i have lagdfix??
There is the possibility that your phone cant handle the overclock kernel. There are some vibrants that cant. Try downloading a non overclocked kernel and see if that helps.

Sounds like you have the misfortune of having two phones that cant handle overclocking. I would try a non overclocked kernel and see what happens.

Random sluggishness?

Guys,
I am running the latest community rom with 1.2 oc and a not so aggressive undervolt. I randomly get sluggish performance. Try and fling/scroll and it will hang for two moments and then move.
Any idea why?

ide say thats normal.. i used to get 3-5 seconds of lag.. now its a max of 2 if any.. its just part of andriod and its programing.
Sounds like memory management. A good unobtrusive app to use is process monitor widget, free in market. Let's you see & record what's going on.

Would a larger sd card help speed?
I've got the same thing, I've odined back to stock on up to 1.3 and it's no better.

Fix for 4.2.2 roms rebooting

I already posted this on the Rootbox rom thread, but I know not everyone reads the whole thread so it might save a bunch of people from asking the same question on different threads over and over again. I have tried out a few 4.2.2 roms and they would always reboot randomly, I used the 4Aces kernel and the Uber kernel and got the same results, constant random reboots. I fixed the problem by turning off CPU profiles. I use SETCPU to overclock, but I assume this is a kernel problem that would happen no matter which app you use to overclock. Hope this helps others!
Just to clarify, I'm still overclocking my device I've just turned off the CPU profiles.
Thanks a lot Porkenhimer, Will try this fix asap.
where is cpu profiles?
thanks, hope this somehow works

Nice. Thanks
I went to check the profile but it was already disabled do I have to worry about it?

Soo, yeah, OP, what exactly are "CPU Profiles". Is this some app? Or is it the setting like in SetCPU that lets you change profiles around in sleep, wake etc?
I don't see it on SetCPU.. Under the Profiles tab, the "Enable Profiles" is not checked. Never has been . I still get the occasional reboot but its somewhat rare at this point. Nothing to concern myself with

Many things happen that cause reboots... Set cpu profiles may be a problem with certain rom and kernel combos but is not a problem for others...specify which rom and kernel combos your using

Did an experiment yesterday and today, I ran 5 random 4.2.2 ROMs each for two hours, 1 hour with no CPU profiles setup and 1 hour with CPU profiles setup and enabled. I used the 4Aces kernel for each test. I also used a different profile setup for each ROM. I did a full wipe before installing each ROM. The ROMs I used were PAC-Man, Alliance, Rootbox, ReVolt & Jellybeer. I did not install any apps except for SETCPU. I had a total of one reboot with CPU profiles turned off, which was with the PAC-Man rom, and the least amount of reboot I had was with Rootbox, which was 3 reboots in one hour with CPU profiles enabled. Its pretty clear to me that enabling CPU profiles at least with the 4Aces kernel, will cause reboots. I had used both both the 4Aces and Uber kernals before doing this test and got reboots on every 4.2.2 rom I tried so I'm guessing if I did the same exact test with the Uber kernel I would get the same results. I'm not saying that other things are not also causing reboots, but its clear to me that something bad is happening when CPU profiles are enabled.

Yes its the tab that says profiles in SETCPU.
Well you must have had a borinnnnng day haha. ... And your eyes must hurt for waiting on reboot.... I run 4/20 rootbox with profiles set for screen on 192/1242 WHEATLEY and screen off 192/972 powersave...4aces kernel. Only had one reboot and it was my daily driver for over a month. ...also the new base changes and merges may be messing with profiles set for set cpu in the newer 4.2.2 builds of roms and kernels. Cool to see someone giving that much time in a day to watch for reboots. Keep visine handy ...hope you figure out more
---------- Post added at 03:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 AM ----------
And actually run a logcat of it re booting with profiles and we will have some answers to what is causing the issue

Need kernel help with Infection 2.9.1

I'm on Infection 2.9.1 and I also flashed the latest Hiro kernel. I downloaded Trickster MOD to change settings. I'm getting a lot of reboots but I'm also trying to save as much battery as possible. I have no idea what settings to mess with and what to change them too. My phone settings had a Performance settings where you can change CPU settings and I also have Trickster like I said, just don't know which to use. I think both are on which might be causing problems? I posted some screenshots, could some please help me get something going? - Thanks guys!

Oh, and "set on boot" means its turned on, correct?
If your using a kernel app like trickster mod than make sure everything that says set on boot under system\performance is unchecked

OK I got that part but what settings should I use? I'm not good with kernels and these apps, changing voltages, etc. My phone has been overheating and boot looping a lot. I also want to get best battery life possible. I just don't know what settings to use. Also if I'm using trickster to tweak my CPU shouldn't the performance in my phone settings be shut off? I'm open to using another tuner app.

Make the sleep frequency be 384 (whatever the 300 MHz is) been running that way since launch of 2.9.1, no issues, besides the native tether (only buggy issue I use) and whatever else others reported, I assume. Never used the features that this report so I don't know.

There is an option in kernel tuner for it. Some kernels do not support changing that setting though.
Now that he released it, this is what I used on infection the past week when 2.9.1 came out. It works amazingly. On install it gives you options for sleep 2 wake and screen off frequency (I set mine to on and 384 with no adverse issues)

No clue what your talking about? What does that jb port do? Also are you saying I need to get rid of trickster mod and DL kernel tuner?
Edit: I downloaded kernel tuner app just even more confusing now. It has cpu0 and cpu1 and about 100 other options.

So this kernel will replace Hiro which I'm using now?
And you keep saying to change sleep freq to 384? I'm guessing that will fix my wake issues. What about fixing my battery life and boot loops?
Sent from my Infected Rezound using Tapatalk 2
Can anyone else chime in? This is what I'm trying to accomplish.
1. Fix boot loops
2. Stop the over heating
3. Make battery last as long as possible
4. Fix the wake up issues. When I press power button to wake phone the capacitive buttons turn on but the screen doesn't.
These are the issues that I'm trying to fix. Like I said I'm currently on infection 2.9.1 using lastest hiro kernel. I need some helping finding the right kernel to use and what settings to use with kernel tuner or trickster mod app doesn't matter.
Sent from my Infected Rezound using Tapatalk 2
That kernel will replace hiro. You can set screen off freq upon flashing in recovery. The below pictures is my current settings for the past week and only had one freeze (it was testing something out for the kernel before released). In the picture, screen off and idle freq are disabled as you change settings when flashing the kernel. (During install, aroma will ask if you want to do default or custom install, custom for more options.) Pictures are in thumb format so less space is used in the forum.

OK thanks for the detailed instructions I'll try it and see if my phone improves.

You can change second core to something else. Lionheart is a performance based governor. I use it on second core with mpdecision having a longer wait to turn on core 1 for my personal optimal battery saving/performance. Core 0 is set for power save bias so only when I need speed, core 1 will kick on with some higher MHz while CPU 0 catches up a little later.
Battery savings isn't too great, but unless you are doing some CPU intensive stuff, it does pretty well on battery.
This is CPU times today... Mind you, I used my phone for a total of 4hrs from 530-1640. The reason it stayed at 192 a lot was because I just did texting, web browsing and some other low CPU intensive tasks so far today (about 20-30mins of awake time in 192 was screen off streaming a local radio station.) Ran buttery smooth though.
