What's the most battery friendly kernel?

In order to determine this one must flash all kernels and test each of them with the same ROM for a minimum period of 24 hours and then when they have finished that post their results.
For the record im using Franco kernel.
No doubt. Insecure kernel

Seriously, nobody can answer this question and yet it is still asked 20 times a week, best rom, best kernel, best modem, whatever.
It's completely subjective!!
What is good for you might be **** for someone else.

Tbh i would recommend any custom kernel that allows you to undervolt, i.e Siyah
i currently have my phone running 100mv below stock and my battery life is better than it was stock
Uv is useless in s3 seriouzly. How much can u save.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Well think about it, 4 cores consuming 1400 millivolts each.
Undervolt by 100 millivolts and you have saved the equivalent current of 400 millivolts (100 per core).
Thats close to a third of the total consumption of one stock core.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Undervolting is pointless unless you are planning on overclocking and want to reduce heat.
Battery savings from Undervolting are about 2-3%
This is insignificant and isn't worth the potential instabilities.
Plus it's not even a big consumer of power, The power the cpu uses is dwarfed by everything else in the phone.

The CPU is still the largest consumer of power unless you have extremely bright colours showing on the screen. Plus the phone can be undervolted very far below stock settings as it is, so savings should be more than what you quoted. For gaming I'd say my mali patch would bring quite some advantage in terms of power, since the CPU lock is gone and ASV scaling on the GPU can actually take place now, Netarchy already included that into Ninphetamin.

Somewhere on XDA I've been reading about some1 testing high (nearly max) voltages against as low as possible voltages (but if I remember correctly it has been a single core CPU). His result of this test was that even with such extreme voltage differences he was not able to save one percent of battery.
While I'm not too much into CPU voltages and undervolting I can't say anything about it for sure. But I'll be looking for that article...

I think I know what thread you are talking about and I completely disagree with those findings, at least on the S2 I did proper measurements myself with -100mV on various frequencies and the power advantage was almost equal to the CMOS power formula f*V² on full load applications. I advise people to stop comparing such articles from different architectures as the Snapdragons or the OMAPs as they have different types of power saving states which influence the measurements greatly. The Exynos is relatively "stupid" in terms of lower power states and relies heavily on DVFS scaling so voltage brings a greater effect on the dissipation.

This may be a dumb question but has underclocking a CPU been shown to damage it at all? Be it longterm or short? I know excessive overclocking can take it's toll on the life of a processor and was just wondering if the opposite was true also.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Well I'll answer with my common sense: I don't see a negative effect on the chip. Underclocking too much could effect your performance and might cause reboots. Best way to go about it is trial and error. Find a stable setting and go from there.

Underclocking does not damage anything hardware wise. In fact all recent processors do it very often for energy efficiency reasons. Your phone its probably doing it right now. It will go to its stock rated speed (1 GHz for photon) when you run a game or something else system intensive and it will clock back down to 216 GHz (lowest stock rated speed) when you quit or anywhere imbetween depending on load.

Yeah it shouldn't really have to much of an effect seeing as you are basically allowing it to do less. Just as long as you are not running to much for it to handle at its underclocked speed.... In theory at least.
I run both OC and UC setups depending upon what I'm doing IE "Charging" or "Screen off". And I've yet to see any negative effects.
Well seeing uderclocking makes it so its "walking" instead of "running" so it should be able to keep its "breath" longer.. less stress does usally me longer life. So i would say it helps your phone life overall and battery life longer overall

Good to see enyo has found where he belongs in xda. Asking questions and learning.
This is a big improvement enyo.
as to 1.2 feeling slower, your putting a massive undervolt on it. Try backing it off a bit and see if responsiveness comes back. Also, higher clock speeds can lead to better battery in theory by completing tasks faster and allowing the CPU to govern back down to a idle state.

Thanks. Your right. Backed to -75mV on 1.2ghz and faster response came back.
Also it because really fast after switching to the Medium Leakage.
I rarely let my phone sleep, so 1.2 is the maximum I'll go for speed/battery.
But, the more you UV, you get laggy if its too low, but stable?

if you look at qualcomm`s website you will notice that they state that it is clocked at 1.5ghz. I have been running it and it reduces lag with minimal battery drain. because it was built to clock at 1.5ghz it will run at optimal efficiency at this speed. what causes instability is over and under volting.

its rated for 1.5ghz -on the reference system-, if a builder make a system which dont follow reference board specifics it has to adjust something to make for it, in this case clock speed.
as generally builder are required to leave a lot of leeway in their specs you shouldnt have problems, just a processor a bit warmer than what specs require and which use more battery than for htc specs.
yet keep in mind that you arent using it as for -htc- specs (which supersedes the cpu maker) so you arent covered by warranty if something goes wrong.

I'm running my EVO at 1.5ghz for 2 months now, and I dont experience any of the mentioned issues, NO extra heat.(maybe because of the winter temperature ), NO battery drains.

1.2 ghz are what the hardware designer set as specs, anything else is a risk - minimal but still there is a chance that something will go wrong and if it happens its not covered by warranty as you are running the thing out of specs.
so its the owner choice, the risk its really small, nearly irrilevant but you cant tell him that there isnt any.
Hi, kinda the 3rd time i ask and no reply or whatsoever...

Its like ballsofsteel said, its due to throttling because of heat.
Firstly you don't need the CPU at 1.8ghz, secondly you shouldn't use performance governor as it keeps the CPU at max freq all the time. Leave it on pegasusq and if you wanna overclock then 1.6ghz is enough.

Just drop the up threshold in governor settings, its at like 85% stock so drop it to 70-75% or lower if you want. You can tweak those other settings to make the phone snappier. Pegasusq is important because it is a hotplug governor and turns cores on and off as they are needed. I always used deadline so that's what in would recommend.

Don't worry.
Undervolting is basically adjusting the voltages so the cpu uses less voltage aka electricity. It helps a little but it can make your phone unstable so watch out. Of you undervolt use the system tuner app on the market. You should definitely under clock if you want to save power too. When you undervolt be sure to underclock, and don't do it too low or your phone might freeze! That's why your shouldn't go so extreme on it.
Overvolting is basically adding more voltage to the cpu. There is no point in doing it for our amazes to be honest. It is already a battery hog. I guess it can help if you want to over clock a lot but there is absolutely no point in doing that.
In older legacy phones if you wanted to over clock because the cpu would be so weak, like 600mhz then you would have to overvolt to over clock to like 1ghz if you were lucky. Our devices are 1.5 ghz dual core and sense isn't THAT bad. There's no point in doing overvolt in this phone though.
PS, check out my rom in the development section.

I just saw it in Venom Tweaks and was curious. The most I underclock to is 1 GHz; cuts down the CPU maximum by a third and doesn't hinder performance to much. What voltage would you recommend at that clock speed?

P.S. I have I plan on flashing it to try it out when I get WiFi access. Trying to cut down data usage since I don't have WiFi at home.

1ghz is perfect. As for voltage it really varies but I subtract 75 or 50 mv from all voltages.
PS. Oh nice, hope you get wifi soon then.
