What are the differences between cpu tuner and setcpu? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Did someone use both of them and can list the advantages and disadvantages of both for gs3.
Thanks

i use both, for managing my cpu and cpu profile include voltage control, i use setcpu.
System tuner is more like all in one app. but it depends on your kernel. some kernel support setcpu and some dont. so check your kernel. if you are using custom kernel.
System tuner has a lot of info like which apps use more of your cpu. this can be usefull to find background app that running and use a lot of cpu which resulting bad battery life.
I suggest you check system tuner xda thread as all the info and all use listed there.
use search button or go to google play and search system tuner and go to their website or xda link

+1 for SetCPU
frrst of all ever developer i have came across talks about using set cpu and it has specific version for xda community for free )try and top that )
2nd it has much more options then just over/under clocking and over/under volting.
3rd i havent found any problems with it yet so dont look for any other alternatives yet so hope this helps u with decision making.

SetCpu pwns.
-Yo momma's so stupid she finds iOS complicated.-
I like setCPU but when I slide the max cpu to 1000 and I reopen setcpu it jumps to 1300... I tried CPU tuner today and it has scaling and gives you a ton of option settings. I going to try it out for a while.
Im using no-frills

I have tried both of those,but I have had better results and prefer the interface and options of System Tuner

System tuner / memory tweak

hey guys can someone please tell me the setting you have in system tuner memory tweak section...i think i screw mine up.
Is this what you want?

yep thanks....hmmm did a search, no one trying to optimize the ram?
If you don't know what your doing i wouldn't mess with tuning those values. Find a kernel with modified lowmem killer depending on what forum section you are using (tmo sprint, etc.) Most have it

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] Now that we have the access to tweak our weapons....

Since we now have Perseus kernel and we can tweak stuff, the cpu is easy enough to tweak. But for the gpu and voltage and charging etc... what's a good app that is compatible? I used to use STweaks with Siyah. But don't what's the best all round tweaking app

They are just benchmarking programs are they not? The OP was asking about a program that allows you to tweak the rom like Xtweaks or any of the others.

Yeh I never run it at the max just for saftey precautions, I already know how to tweak the CPU i am actually talking about tweaking everything else do you know any other software like Stweaks for Siyah?

Moving to Q&A
For GPU clocks and voltages you need to use scripts.

try SetCPU you can alter the governor and the voltage plus you can also check if the undervolt you did is stable

Task managers,mobile cleaners and the like....?

I would like to know what your thoughts are on usage of these apps, do they work?
I have personally used,
Greenify
Es task manager
Du battery saver and there cleaner app
But I have read they use more ram then they free up etc..
Also xcore, and core2 management. (these shut down one core on dual core devices) Do these save battery or not? Surely since these phones are generally optimized for dual core processors, closing one causes the remaining core to work twice as hard and wont save any?
Are any if these applications worth having?

Since few weeks I'm using greenify, but can't see any difference.
However since the beginning of my android adventure I'm using advanced task killer, set it to aggressive mode. This does the job pretty good (specially the older versions).
I'll have to try those core disabling apps.

Core 2 doesn't even work.

Ok strange, I thought it was because the s4 was quad core but just checked and the zoomis dual core.
How do you know it doesn't work? I checked via cpustats app (free in the app store) it shows when I use xcore or core2 manager that one of the cores are off line.
You could try xcore?

OK. Also I wondered since your zoom has a xenon flash, can you still get torch apps etc? I bet its bright if you can.

You can't use xenon as torch and I don't own this device anymore.

Du battery saver is useless app. Basically all these battery saving apps do things which you can do from Status Bar. (Like switch off Wi-Fi, Data, B/T etc).
Greenify is good app to freeze apps, but shows effect only if you freeze large number of apps.
But xcore, core2 and CPU Controlling apps are best. They give major battery boost.
I don't have dual core, but if I underclock my phone's CPU I get battery boost of 2-3 days.

See when I use xcore etc my phone slows but battery seems to drain just as quick. Then there are goveners and io schedulers, if I use interactivex does that only use one core until the second core is needed?

I don't know about interactivex. I own a single core phone.
But disabling 2nd core definately gives battery boost.
I have tested it on my Laptop. Disabling 2nd core gives lot of battery boost (and a bit of lag).
