Is there an app to view the Real CPU temp on the Note, and not from the batt sensor? I contacted System Tuner devs to find out why the their app does not show CPU temp, and here is the response.
" This means the CPU temperature is* not available on your phone or it's notsupported by the app. Note however that many* apps on Market pretends toprovide CPU temperature while they only provide battery temperature!If you want to check if your phone has such information available, you cansearch the content of the /sys folders and all its subfolders for a filecontaining 'temp' in its name. Note you should use an automated tool forthat, such as EStrong File Explorer."

Try Temp+CPU app. I have pro version, and this allows me set update interval to as low as 1 second.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

I tried the above app, and still no CPU temp reading. I do get batt temp reading(on every app I've tried). I have been reading and come to find out the Note may not have the CPU temp sensor. Can anyone confirm?

It works perfectly on mine. Its a widget though. Configure it to show reading too, in F or C, whatever you want.
Yes I tried and it shows a static -1c on mine. I wonder if it's kernel related? I read up on the issue and some say it needs to be activated at the kernel level or that the CPU temp diode is just not there.
I'm going to flash a stock kernel and test.

For me, it worked on stock, on Saurom, and on the latest Solaris prime, with all the kernels they bundled in.
I hope it's not a hardware issue with my note. I'm going to flash a different ROM, and test again.

Ok to test out I just bought the Temp+CPU app on my Infuse as well, and it doesn't show CPU temp either. Both phones show 31°F for CPU temp. Now in widget options when changing both phones to battery temp they work fine.

Iirc both the note and the HP touchpad share similar if not the same processor...and the touchpad also doesn't show the temp. If it gets too hot it will just lock up and reboot. But its never gotten hot w/ overclocking

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

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.

Hey guys, I know we can underclock our CPU but has anyone found a good app to either increase the min frequency and have it actually stick? The only one I've found was System tuner by 3c but it only sticks for a bit and then either hangs or just plain doesn't work. I've found that keeping the min values at about 608mhz will stop just about all music skips for me. And yes I know this will kill my battery.

Oh wow. I forgot to reboot! No frills CPU is working now. Thanks for kickstarting this thing I call a brain.
Sent from my MB870 using XDA
Ok I'm getting annoyed now, no frills CPU works BUT it kills itself minutes after I leave the app. Ill set the CPU to...lets say 1ghz min and Max it will show in system panel that indeed it is staying clocked at 1ghz and not fluctuating. Then ill go do something else on my phone, for example, browse the xda forums, I come back to system panel and its fluctuating again!!! Ive tried rebooting after setting the CPU min/Max but it will still do the same thing. Ive noticed that after i exit no frills it either goes into cached processes or it just stops and acts like i killed it, any ideas?
Edit: I wanna say its a superuser hang issue, I've tried supersu but it seems to hang as well but I'm open to peoples opinions.

Yep same thing I'm getting, I'm wondering if there is an init.d script that could be made that would lock it at certain frequencies. That.....is out of my knowledge
Sent from my MB870 using XDA
sorry guys
this isn't possible
no matter how you try to set the min/max with ANY unit.d script or app, it just
will not stick.
at first it well seem like it's working for a few minutes. but then something happens and the kernel basically says "no that ain't gonna happen anymore" and kicks the min/max back to where it should be (the sliders in the apps won't move, but the actual system min/max and governor will be what it is supposed to be)
trust me, I've tried this from just about any angle fire the longest time.
sorry to be the bearer of bad news

well ro be honest with you. the second core is always enabled until the phone goes into sleep. from sleep mode, the kernel disables the second core. unless toy want the phon to run 1 core and then toggle the second core on demand?

System Tuner has an option to force all CPU's online, but that may only happen at boot, and not keep them online.
possible hijacked this application? for use on atrix? : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10095647&postcount=22
System tuner will force both cores online. It can be set at boot or via init d. It will make your phone run hotter and increase battery drain. I didn't see enough of a performance increase to justify forcing both cores online. Logs show the second core kicking in when necessary.

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!

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)

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.

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.

You most likely have a performance option that came with the Custom Rom or are running an app that has System App access , which will over ride a User App. Double check all apps and settings to see if you have any other programs that have system user rights to your CPU, that is most likely what is over taking your desired settings.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm on the Android Revolution HD 8.0 ROM now, that is probably the reason for this. Can I do something with this?
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app
Open up the app your using to undervolt, these should be an option to restore default values. Once back on default go ahead and open the programs' App info and disable or freeze it. Reboot and run your CPU spy app and see what is taking charge of your voltage. Also possible your voltages are not sticking which has to do with the ROM. Id suggest running profiles for CPU rather then undervolt. I. E. 534 mhz - 1434 mhz when screen on, 348-1012 when screen off. SetCPU is what i use. You have less of a chance of frying the motherboard and doing irreversible damage to your phone internally

Undervolt has to do with lowering the power that goes to the battery. when desired mhz occurs, where as underclocking has to do with specifically CPU processors and with a specified setting (screen off, music app on) occurring. Just to clear up my previous post. Undervolting the battery use to do wonders on phones a few years back because of all around poor battery life on most devices. But nowadays it is pretty pointless.
