I'm not aware of a method to find exactly which voltage caused the reset from logs... from my findings, it's always best to change one voltage at a time and then run a quadrant scan or something else cpu intensive to test the new change. That way, you know exactly which change caused the phone to hang without searching logs.
Changing voltages is a very guess-and-check process and the above process tends to work well. Remember to run new settings for a day when you think you've found the perfect voltage before saving them as boot and check some of the old threads here for recommendations on values.
If there is a simpler method to check though, I'd like to know just as much as you!

[Q] Setcpu?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me by explaining to me how to use setcpu? I'm trying to use it to save battery. The only problem is that I have no idea on how to use it, I mean what profiles do I use, how do I even configure profiles.
I've searched but honestly I don't understand a thing but I know I need to learn, any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

During night, you can set it low... max 600 or whatever ...
Setcpu, juice defender...
Use tasker instead! Im not be able using tasker because instable rom... actually idk yet, what's the issue...
It might need a little more time learning to use it... but, i recomended this apps... not only cpu state, you can even using it to fully automatic... fully control... not only time... you can set it low, everytime it sleeps... network control also.... give it a shot....

Wow, sorry, but have you even tried it yet? It's pretty intuitive already.

Is ur phone rooted? Without root superuser, u can't used it.... look at tab profile... u can create profile from that tab.... u have to check it... if u want to use the profile... if u didn't check it... it just run how it supposed to do on the first tab...
That's mean... if u just have one profile... example.. from 9am till 13pm... it's mean this profile active during this hour... and then out of that... he back to the normally used.... u can create as many profile as u like... check cpu gov... then u will know what is it mean... there're hotplug, performance, userspace, demand etc... u have check ur phone first... not every phone have the same...
Good luck...

[Q] cpu use

Every time i use my s3 it runs at 1400mhz almost all time. I haven't flashed any kernel. It is only rooted and i cant figure out what app is forcing cpu run so high. Only app what comes to my mind is touchwiz... (can't upload screenshot of cpu spy, i upload it with computer if needed.)

im sure the cpu would report other frequencies too. if you want to check the high cpu usage install os monitor from market and find the culprit app

Yeah it uses other frequencies too but only sometimes, it uses 1400mhz even when im just scrolling my homescreen but thanks i will try that app if it helps.

so what was the cause of this? did you ever find the reason? I even did a factory reset and still seeing 80+% usage at 1500 (or 1026 when i got power save on) with minimal time in deep sleep.

I didn't never find the reason.. but when I changed roms couple times it started to run at lower frequencies. It could be too newer android what solved problem.

For the right answer - use BetterBatteryStats (there is a free XDA-dev build somewhere around)

OC on ICS

I installed the OC kernel but it doesn't seem to stick. I am using SetCPU and even though I've set a profile for 1800 speed, when I get out of the app, and go in it again, it goes right back to the 1500 speed.
Anyone else have this issue with it?
Most apps have am option to retain their current settings somewhere

be sure your aren't over-riding it with another setting somewhere in the Rom. Most custom Roms have the SET ON BOOT so it your using that or an app like RomToolbox that could conflict the settings.
Looks like FJ Tools is overriding it. How do I get SetCPU to take priority?

Not sure this covers your situation.

Undervolting applications?

About to flash Sebastian's 1.4. I was just wondering what applications people are fond of for undervolting and over clocking.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

SetCpu doesn't seem to have the undervolt option. Unless i just can't find it. Under what tab is it?

Under the voltage tab.. afaik voltage tabs only appear on the these overclocking tabs only if your kernel supports undervolting...stock kernels dont support it..

Or you could use System Tuner
SetCPU is the general go-to app for its straightforward appearance. The voltage tab sometimes does not appear even for a custom kernel with voltage tables; compatibility issues the app maker needs to correct.
Try System Tuner for an interface with a lot of other useful options and info with graphics.
Incredicontrol offers an interface similar in layout to SetCPU, and can toggle the Force Fast/AC Charge option for kernels with that have it. However, its voltage tables have had gray text on a white background for some users lately, making it a minor nuisance to read. Got the problem on my setup.

Just downloaded System Tuner, and the interface is amazing! So many available options!
Just wondering, what settings is everyone running for undervolting. I never had a phone which i can undervolt in so this is all new to me.

Personally do -75mV across the board typically, pushing -82.5mV testing. -50mV should be reasonable for less accomadating cores.
All depends on your own CPU quality. Don't set tables on boot or by script unless they prove stable first. Or, just redo again each boot manually to be safest.

I've tried SetCPU Pro, System Tuner Pro, CPU Master, ROM Toolbox, and Voltage Control with both Funky kernel and dsb's kernel. None of the programs give me any voltage settings. So am I missing something?

Funky kernel doesn't have adjustable voltage settings. It has a fixed -50mV undervolt. Not sure on dsb's kernel.
So for Global Sense 3.6 ROMs, what kernels will work for UV?
Shrike, good to see ya from the Charge forum. It is exciting to own a device with lots of development.

I'm pretty sure dsb's works, but I haven't run Sense in a month, so I couldn't tell you what apps work with it. Try IncrediContol if you haven't already.
Also, good to see you here too. I'm still trying to help them out in the Charge forum when I can, but it's getting quieter and quieter over there.

(Q) Undervolt and lag, how to solve it?

Hi all, I've some problems with my undervolted S3 (but same issues has my brother with his undervolted Note 2).
If I undervolt my phone (-25mV/-50mV/-75mV, ecc...all values are the same thing), lag problems appear with youtube app and also with other video, like flashplayer. Lag appears after about 10 minutes I'm watching some HD videos, and I must reboot S3 to solve the problem, infact change voltages to default values don't help.
I used apps like Voltage control or CPU tweaker, that allow to create different profiles whit different values, but when the lag appears, also if I select profile with default values the problem remains until i reboot...
How do you solve this problem? If you undervolted your phones, how you solve the lag problem? Thx for replies
There is an old saying back in my question.
Literally translation: if you want your horse to run, you have to feed it first.
Did you try other kernel?

Already tried
So, I think there's no solutions for lag when phone is undervolted, but is strange that lag persists when I come back at default profile.

OK... as far as we know, every phone has its own tolerable voltage... You said even default voltage causes lag as well, may be you should overvoltage to see if you can get it stable?
Maybe it's related with ROM?

I haven't tried overvolt, but is possible that default values I see when open for the first time Stweaks or Set CPU aren't right for my phone?
My rom is Foxhound with siyah kernel.

I would suggest you try stock ROM and stock kernel first, if it's all OK with stock, then first try other kernel, if using other kernel still OK, then perhaps it could ROM problem, anyway, you have to slowly determine where or what part went wrong and cause lag
