What do you guys think is better smartassv2 or ondemand? I usually use smartassv2 but im not sure with the rezound.
I'm using ondemand and its been perfect for me. no rebooted and great battery life.
I flashed incredikernel 6 the day it was released weeks ago.
I use on-demand, I have not had a single reboot/bootloop etc yet & the battery life is super.
I use on demand with the stock Kernel (using cleanrom 3.5). I drop the cpu down to about 1.ghz and set a profile for on demand between 192 and 760 something when the screen is off. I only dropped about 3 percent a few nights ago while sleeping (6.5 hours roughly). (the phone doesn't go into sleep mode and I dont have a battery saver). I don't get that with my heavy usage, but that is a big plus.
Where do you guys get the download for ondemand? Back in the day when I had the OG Droid, everyone used SetCPU. Doesn't seem to be the app of choice any more to set frequencies. I can't find ondemand (or smartass for that matter) in the market. ANy suggestions?
I had been using ondemand up until a few days ago. The last couple days I have been using interactive, and it seems like both battery life and performance are somewhat better, although I have no hard numbers to support this, and I have really random usage.

They're features on the kernel. When you install the kernel you'll be able to check which one you wanna use from the app. (SetCPU may be good, but it seems the apps of choice on the Rezound are AnTuTu or Systems Tuner Pro, I use AnTuTU.)
Or if you use incredikernel the app incredicontrol goes along with it perfectly and is 100% totally stable for me. I have tried every kernel there is both GB and ICS on my phone and incredikernel and the stock kernel are the only ones that will run stability test scaling stability test all night long without bootlooping.

Thank you so much for the reply. I am just sticking with the stock Kernal for now, but I was interested in undervolting the kernal while it's in sleep mode and while charging to see if I can save battery life. I just tried SetCPU, but was not pleased with the constant SU pop ups. It was keeping my screen awake. I think I'll five AnTuTu a shot.
If I ever load a custom kernal, I'll know what to keep an eye out for.
I have completely given up on undervolting at this point, I never once saw a noticeable increase in battery life but I definitely ended up with a less stable phone.........

What we need are more custom kernels.
I have undervolted (Incredikernel with Incredicontrol) and it's quite stable and the battery life is pretty good. I can get 12 - 16 hours with the stock battery with medium usage (texting, browsing).
Interstingly, it was 10 - 12 with OnDemand. Interactive seems to be better.

Have you ever tried leaving all the settings exactly the same and NOT undervolting??
I would be willing to bet the battery life would be almost identical.
CPU Tuner is awesome also. Might be the best.

Actually, yes. It did make a difference. Not as significant as on the Incredible, although that may be a difference in HAVS vs SVS.

Anyone have a ultimate setting for saving battery life in SETCPU for the Motorola Photon?
Bump.. Just bought it myself will read more into it... But if someone has a quick down and dirty on settings for the photon would be appreciated... I did do some initial settings but felt the screen was getting too hot so I aborted the settings I applied.
I stopped using setcpu back when i had an HTC hero (2009). You really don't need it imo lol. Wanna save battery, use an undervolt kernel or turn off mobile data when you're not using it. You could also turn off auto background data sync.
Will look into it, just seemed that the percentage based rules looked attractive inthe program.. Always nice to be able to apply less than rules, greater than etc..
And if you're drinkin' well, you know
That you're my friend and I say
I think I'll have myself a beer
Don't think an app can control our cpu. I've tried setting frequencies only to have them ignored, pretty sure some programs will have the under volt ignored.

Its all based on the personal preference man. If you feel the need to use it go ahead. Myself, I don't think its necessary. I mean it's good for setting profiles in different situations (screen on/off,charging etc). Most of the time the kernels baked in settings are good enough but some people combine a custom kernel with setcpu for maximum control over CPU. Setcpu is absolutely pointless unless you're running a custom kernel. Plus if you use cyanogen roms it will allow you to set CPU values within the rom. Again, these are just my thoughts on it man.
Well I'm in the process of trying to get CM9 working, so I guess I wouldn't need it.
Thanks for the clarification.
Can I ask, how did you UV your cpu ? is it somewhere within the setcpu, or it comes from the kernel ? I really don't understand about ocing/uving an android phone, thx.

Custom kernels will allow you to over clock or undervolt. Set CPU just allows you to set clock speed upon boot along with custom profiles. If you install a kernel that allows undervolting it should have the custom values baked in. Again, use set CPU if you please. Joker has a set of custom kernels both uv/oc. I'm using his 1.3 oc kernel for CM7 at the moment but I'm only clocked at 1.2 just testing out. So far its amazing.

Doesn't voltage control also work? When I was using my Epic4g, i preferred voltage control over setcpu since it does both: OC and UV.
However, I'd agree with kennypow3rs that i dont think any of it is necesary with the Photon. It's quite fast already and the battery life is amazing. I hacked my Epic 4g like crazy, through 10 ROMs, OC/UV, Eclair through GB, and I have to say, it was a waste of my time. I am now extremely happy to have the Photon, stock and rooted.

I prefer to use this instead of the ones built in to cm7/9, personal preference i guess.
But the only real reason i use it is for the profiles feature. Which i set my phone to screen off to max at 216mhz(wish i could auto disable while using Pandora), then to any time below 100% battery to max 750mhz (with jokers kernel that disables the 2nd core) and then finely to run full speed when its plugged in.

Funny, I have been using SetCPU until Kennypow3rs said something. Although it worked, I have ROM Toolbox Pro. I figured out yesterday, It does all that performance crap and more. Matter fact, I got 15 hours out of my battery (Granted, 7 of those hours I was sleep!)

Honestly, I'm down to 1512. A notch above that proved unstable as far as I can tell. I can run benchmarks fine upwards of ~1800, but I'll get random force closes and boot loops if left for any extended period of time. Also have issues with display not coming back on (menu lights and led backlight work, but no image). The stability test app is pretty much worthless too. Let it run for 6 hrs no errors. When I turned it off, BAM restart.
So what is your max, truly stable, OC?

I'm using the same Kernel with Scott's 'senseless' ROM and I have my clock set to 1.836 with no issues.

My first 3D was pretty stable at 1.94 but when it started getting the black screen of death I got it replaced through sprint. The Refurbed one they gave me (the one I have now) freezes if I go to 1.6..
I used to do 1.94 but it gave me random reboots (nothing fatal)
I stick to 1.5 smartass when the battery is greater than 50%, then 1.2 smartass, and .8 conservative at 15%.
On charge it's 1.7GHz lagfree
Depends on your CPU, they all arn't created equal. I'm stable at 1.9 GHz with no reboots. I'd say that 1.5 is a good mark, seeing as the HTC Rezound has the exact same CPU as the Evo 3D, just clocked to 1.5 instead of 1.2.

This is interesting. I bet the CPUs, while manufacturing wise are identical, are chosen based on thier bin level for the different devices.
After writing this post I cleared Dalvik cache and switched my kernel to RCmix-evo3d-v7. I ran it at 1.62 or something like that while I was running around Christmas shopping, so it had heavy use. Google nav, lots of phone calls, texts, Pandora, etc with zero issues (especially that display issue I mentioned is gone, thank god). After getting home I was so impressed with it that i stepped it up to 1.782, and we'll see about that, although I'm not holding my breath.
Basically I learned that your overclocking potential (or maybe more accurately system stability regardless of overclocking) is greatly influenced by your kernel.
Akasa Fox, mind sharing your kernel version, ROM and version, and hboot and any other potentially relevant information I may be forgetting? I'm impressed with your performance.

The kernel does have a decent bit to do with your max OC, but it also has to do with the CPU you have and if it was made on a good day at the foundry or not and how good a section of the silicon it came from.
I used to run RC Mix kernels before Chad was around, but those kernels always ran MUCH hotter. When playing a game my phone would literally be almost too hot to touch. Chad's Anthrax kernels have always been cool and after playing a game for a while (same game, same amount of time) the phone is just a bit warm. So you may be able to go farther with an OC on RC Mix kernels, but your phone's lifetime for its processor is going to be a whole lot less. At the temp it was hitting id bet it is well above its max rated temperature level and degrading the processor substantially.
Some people may not be able to OC far, but how far can you undervolt? Many times those who cannot OC very high can undervolt like crazy (me included) and those who can OC much higher than most also cannot run really low voltage levels. My phone is 100% stable @ 192MHz on only 700mv. Thats the lowest Chad allows, Id love to see if I can be stable even lower. I am also 100% stable @ 1188MHz (HTC Stock) with only 987.5mv. But the most I have ever been able to overclock stably (even with RC Mix kernel) was 1.6GHz, with the max benchable being 1.72GHz. Any higher and the phone insta locks up and reboots. No matter what voltage.
Hm, that's a good point. I'd like to push the undervolt limits as well to see what its got. That anthrax kernel I mentioned in the first post was terribly unstable for me, but maybe I should give it another shot after researching the super wipe method mentioned a few posts up. Is there a version of his kernel that everyone is having good luck with? Or is the latest one the best?
Also, I don't see voltage options in the antutu program. What are you using for your oc/uv utility?
Thanks.

The phone even has trouble at stock now. I haven't traded it in for obvious no s off reason.

OCing will not increase battery life. In fact, it'll do the opposite, decrease your battery life. I haven't read this anywhere, but that just has to be the case. It's like saying the driving 100 miles uses less gas then driving 30 miles.

Overclocking by itself will typically decrease battery life. Undervolting, on the other hand, has great potential to increase battery life, even when combined with overclocking.

A combination that works for me - Miracle V3 ROM with the PureMotive battery mod and beta3.1 Ace Kernel. Thus far, almost 24 hours, no force closes, battery life much improved, stable at 844 oc, smartassV2 gov. Phone is not getting as heated as previously while playing any 3D game, it just feels faster and smoother...response time awaking from deep sleep is smooth, so many things seem to be functioning better.
Those who believe the improvement in battery life to be a placebo effect, I do not believe that to be the case. I could very rarely go past 6-7 hours without dropping to 10% power left. With this combination, I have gone more than 16 hours and still 40% power left to go.
I have tried so many roms and mods and they all worked really well, but most really did not improve battery life by more than a couple of hours. The battery mod really worked with the Miracle ROM (any CM7 I guess) and the beta-3 ace kernel also seems to be adding on to making the ace smooth, lag free even when underclocked to 424 max and 122 min, Smartass V2 and nook as default...in call profile 787 max 244 min.
Love and respect to all the Devs and all who mod and improve the creations...thank you so much and keep up the great work.

Continuing to note the extension in battery life. Go Power Master is further adding to battery life in super-saver mode. In the nine months that I have had the ace, the max battery life I ever got was 12 hours on one occasion, that too only because I was not able to use wi-fi because the wi-fi modem had issues and could not be used. Today's snapshots are decisive. With Go Power Master, one full charge has lasted 20 hours and there is still 30% of the battery to be used.

Smartass V2. Min 122, max 484. For gaming or intensive usage - min 122, max 864. using cpu master pro as find it a little faster than set CPU.

A combination that works for me - Miracle V3 ROM with the PureMotive battery mod and beta3.1 Ace Kernel. Thus far, almost 24 hours, no force closes, battery life much improved, stable at 844 oc, smartassV2 gov. Phone is not getting as heated as previously while playing any 3D game, it just feels faster and smoother...response time awaking from deep sleep is smooth, so many things seem to be functioning better.
Those who believe the improvement in battery life to be a placebo effect, I do not believe that to be the case. I could very rarely go past 6-7 hours without dropping to 10% power left. With this combination, I have gone more than 16 hours and still 40% power left to go.
I have tried so many roms and mods and they all worked really well, but most really did not improve battery life by more than a couple of hours. The battery mod really worked with the Miracle ROM (any CM7 I guess) and the beta-3 ace kernel also seems to be adding on to making the ace smooth, lag free even when underclocked to 424 max and 122 min, Smartass V2 and nook as default...in call profile 787 max 244 min.
Love and respect to all the Devs and all who mod and improve the creations...thank you so much and keep up the great work.
Peace, Love, Respect to All

Shall i use v1 or v2 of your zip??
Well said mate, even i feel the same positive effect where many said it to be a placebo.. I have posted my battery drain screens on the Puremotive mod thread too.. This combination works great..
I'm using the just released LATAM OTA leak (but this also holds true for the first LATAM OTA leak).
The default governor for this 2 OTA leaks is 'interactive' but I was having a very choppy gaming experience, then I decided to change governors and analyze what happened.
When I give 'hotplug' a shot I noticed a much more fluid gaming experience and as time passed I also noticed my battery life was much better.
Did anyone else notice this too?
Anyone else willing to give it a go and share what do you think?
hotplug works better for me as well. ICS LATAM
I hope it gives better battery, it shuts CPU 2 off/on when its not/is needed.
hotplug is the same as ondemand governor except with the ability to turn off the second core when not in use.
How do I change it
Sent from my .211 leak razr do you wanna get cut?
get setcpu or any other cpu management app and then change the governor from in there.
This is great thanks for this thread, i was just thinking of posting this answer in question form.
I notice interactive is not a good as hotplug

You can google up SetCPU governors and there are detailed explanations into how each governor performs and their advantages/disadvantages. For most stock kernels, hotplug is the way to go for dual core phones as most of the better ones are usually in custom kernels.
Will hotplug save more battery than conservative?
I guess you must be rooted for that ?

Yes, of-course. Really works for me too, noticed greater performance and battery life.
unfortunately, not for me. i use CPU Tuner to change from ondemand to hotplug, and the performance was a little more laggy.... dont know about battery life though.
question: whats the high/low threshold you guys use? by default, setting hotplug in CPUTuner sets it to 60/40. i know something like 90/98 probably saves a LOT of battery, but performance is crap. and i dont have time to do full trial n error.... lol
Try using setCPU instead of CPUTuner, the default settings worked wonders for me

Looks promising, I think I will give hotplug a shot.

Free for XDA members - look around a bit... and if it makes a difference to you - think about donating $1 or $2 to the dev... you did pay severl hundred for your phone, right? A buck more can't hurt
