I am using cm9 beta 7 , what is the best governer to save battery
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda
None i think though some users may contradict me ...the difference is soo negligible that you hardly notice its all the mental stuff---when u use "conservative" u think it saves more battery while it is hardly more battrry saving than "performance"

Totally agreed.... No major difference in battery drain using conservative and performance

so all "this governer is the ulimate battery saver bla bla bla" is nothing , good to know

Yeah, just use smartassV2. It has a good balance between performance and that little small extra battery life.
The minimum and maximum clock speed do have a significant impact though.

Its not nothing, you don't get 1 day more with other governor, especially if you are heavy user, but its not nothing.
Performance governor seems to set cpu at max all the time (hope i'm right), all other governors does have more or less cpu steps and more or less fast clocking higher if phone is activated.
I am using smartassV2, good compromise, no lags, not too much running at full cpu speed....
There are lots of differences actually. This a comprehensive guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22127033

I'm not one for testing benchmark results but out of curiousity, I did just that.
Rom: oxygen v1.1
Kernel: fserve 19.4 18cfs
A2SD: DT
OC: 480/729, interactivex
Results: 1814
I usually don't concern myself on fast performance and battery life is more my area of interest but with all of this said, I think the result of this benchmark is pretty good
I haven't ran neocore though just benchmark, lets hear what the rest of y'all got

After 2 weeks using my At&t atrix I realize that this handphone doesnt meet my requirement. I hope i can have a phone that will stand minimum a day without plug in for charging. Using my atrix for twitter, browsing and 4 miling list, it only can stand for maximum 8 hours.
Can anyone suggest me what is the best rom (and maybe kernel) for longest on time...?
thanks before

I have tried a bunch of ROM's. All give good battery life with Faux Stopgap+ 1.0GHz kernel. You will have to UV to get the best life. I am now getting 12+ hours with pretty heavy use, and could go 40hrs with low to medium use. Currently on Darkside ROM, but get same results with CM7 also.
I have WiFi and data on all day, but get best battery life using WiFi with screen on only and turning Wifi off while at work, which is how I can achieve the times above.
Ok, thanks for the info,already flash the kernel and will see if this kernel can make my phone stand for a day
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
CM7 nightly build 20 gave me the longest standby time. But I guess every phone is different.
After using the kernel for a day, the result isn't very good. Only stand for 6 hours.I attach the batt statistic. Why when the phone in idle the batt consume still high?
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
I think that the answer to this question isnt as clear as one may think...
1. CM7 while working good is still in beta, and Im assuming that it will stay there until CM9 arrives...
2.MIUI one of the more popular roms is currently in Alpha stages.
I believe that these two are probaly the most popular ROMs around, and not just for the MAtrix. I think that once we start seeing stable builds of both, it would just come down to a matter of preference.
For the time being, I use CM7. Its stable enough for everyday use, however it still has bugs here and there.
I'm desperately waiting for CM9 and I think that MIUI definitively deserves a try. In the near future I'm positive that this question would be a little bit easier to answer.
Btw what the best way to do UV ?

Have to experiment. Every phone is different. There are already numerous threads with info on this. Also, I now use System Tuner Pro instead of SetCPU. More options and better overall in my opinion.

How to extended the battery life time and minimize it's draining during your daily usage of the SGS2 ?
Also is. Over clocking. Increases the battery draining ?
To extend your battery life, stop using your phone and/or decrease the screen brightness when using it.
Overclocking will probably increase the battery drain if your phone is using the overclocked frequencies.
To increase your battery life turn your phone off every time you are not using it, turn it on when you want to use it, that will get you good battery life.
Honestly search this forum there are a handful of threads that give guides and tutorials on how to maintain battery life not that difficult to search my friend.

Use it as a paperweight and that should be good enough..Or just keep having the charger in it while you are at home
anyway lame jokes aside. get yourself a decent kernel. in your case speedmod. set the governor of your choice and let the magic begin......seriously for you that kernel should be fine. just do not get to excited when the magic begins and you start kissing your phone though just do not tell us here
Hope that helps mate

Speedmod is fine on default. No need to change governor unless you want to try conservative but I recommend to leave speedmod as is.

ohh u mean scaling of the cpu
oh yeh i never change that :L
its on ondemand now on setcpu
To be honest you don't need to use any of those type of application you are better off just removing them and leaving the kernel on complete stock.

Governors are for scaling cpu as you just said. As Nikz said if you are using speedmod no point using any cpu apps as the kernel does all the work for you

Ahh tried an earlier build and was fine but one thing I don't like about CM is the camera quality, I know it's not a digital camera but a TW rom produces better pics.
I am running AOKP and before the stocks kernels battery life was not too good now I am running NEAK with AOKP 5-1 and I wanted to know which has better battery life. Siyah was amazing for me on GB with UnNamed.
EDIT: I tested Siyah for a few days it was pretty bad even with underclocking 200 - 800 or 1000 and with undervolt. Sticking with NEAK again just wanted to know if NOOP + ONDEMAND would be better or NOOP + LAZY.

Gotta try em both out, every phone is unique
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
Not just that every phone is unique, it's that every user has a unique setup with different app usage pattern. Different apps behave differently and consume power differently; therefore, my setup may require very different kernel setups to get extended battery life than yours might. As he said above my post, your the best judge of what works for your setup, try them all and see what works for you.

I can say that neak kernel has worked very nicely for me. Great battery life. Been running it for 3 days now.

Same here. I came from siyah with horrible battery life.
I agree with Nick, try both.

Both performed about the same for me. I noticed significantly more performance from NEAK, and battery life is about the same. But that's just me.

Yes, but once again it varies per phone/user.
Also, what governor do you use? There's only 3 for neak and I've only used ondemand.

In N.E.A.K Options inside Recovery, you can enable two additional governors, as well as put Lionheart tweaks on the Conservative governor.
I find Lazy governor works well for me, but I'm still switching around. NEAK definitely gives me better performance, but seems to give me less battery life. More testing to perform!

How so? He asked about two different Kernels and how they performed. I advised "Both performed about the same" indicating I had installed both and my battery life was about the same. I don't see how I made a grammatical error in that.

Because you said "both performed about the same" then said "I noticed significantly more performance from neak". That's besides the point though

i've been using siyah...i get a lot of lockups with neak..but i think its because i'm not using neak correctly.
in the options is it better to have all governors enabled (conservative, lionheart, lazy)? also i hear for cpu that ondemand with bfq is preferred.
also does anyone have sched_mc and ext4 boost checked?
May you please post your i/o schedulers, governor, the way you charge it, and other essential info?

I had the similar problems (random reboots, lockups) with neak (AOKP), while running great on siyah / CM9 kernels. not sure what's caused it - was too lazy to figure out, reverted to siyah.

Btw, these are the settings I'm using, and so for today (6+ hrs) I've had zero problems. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23139337#post23139337
I had Siyah and battery life was not that great. I would leave the phone idle over night (5-6hrs) and it would go down about 20-30 percent. On the other hand with this new Neak kernel it only went down 1 percent. I can def see an improvement in battery life.
Is there any way to increase the battery life on locked bootloader drastically, without undreclocking?Scripts maybe or some thing? In a noob! And control the temperature. Cause i hardly get around 14hrs of battery life and the cpu temp is at an average of 40 degree Celsius!
Please Help.
Thank Youll.

Check whether deep sleep is working or not. Turn off gps, wifi, data, if not in use. Reduce brightness, haptic, blah blah blah. And also check running apps, kill what not in use, task killer will help.

Moved to Q&A
Actually im not shocked to see the battery life but was shocked to see the avg. temp of 40 degrees. Check the apps taking most of your and disable them and there's no magic you can do on locked bootloaders but search for some scripts for ur mobile....the basic steps are listed by chepoz so follow them. And i'm not scaring but just warning you that due to the overheat problem many phones' touchscreen became unresponsive so after some equal intervals just take the battery and let the battery and the phone cool down just to be on a safe side...
Hope I helped,
Regards,
Abhinav
Okay, so if you can help me out with the scripts it would be really good!
Appart from the deep sleep thing(*dont really know what it is*) , Ive already done what chepoz said, it hardly helped.
Thanks a lot
Since I never faced such problems as my battery life never ended before 20 hours and max temp. reached is just above 35...so I can't help you for the scripts right now but now as u raised this question...so I'll just search here and let u know asap...
