Hi all, I've some problems with my undervolted S3 (but same issues has my brother with his undervolted Note 2).
If I undervolt my phone (-25mV/-50mV/-75mV, ecc...all values are the same thing), lag problems appear with youtube app and also with other video, like flashplayer. Lag appears after about 10 minutes I'm watching some HD videos, and I must reboot S3 to solve the problem, infact change voltages to default values don't help.
I used apps like Voltage control or CPU tweaker, that allow to create different profiles whit different values, but when the lag appears, also if I select profile with default values the problem remains until i reboot...
How do you solve this problem? If you undervolted your phones, how you solve the lag problem? Thx for replies
There is an old saying back in my question.
Literally translation: if you want your horse to run, you have to feed it first.
Did you try other kernel?

Next time, post your problems in Q&A section for more help.
This time, try different kernel or don't use UV as is not much point anyway...

So, I think there's no solutions for lag when phone is undervolted, but is strange that lag persists when I come back at default profile.

OK... as far as we know, every phone has its own tolerable voltage... You said even default voltage causes lag as well, may be you should overvoltage to see if you can get it stable?
Maybe it's related with ROM?

I haven't tried overvolt, but is possible that default values I see when open for the first time Stweaks or Set CPU aren't right for my phone?
My rom is Foxhound with siyah kernel.

I would suggest you try stock ROM and stock kernel first, if it's all OK with stock, then first try other kernel, if using other kernel still OK, then perhaps it could ROM problem, anyway, you have to slowly determine where or what part went wrong and cause lag

Im on wicked rom and siyah 2.6.6 do i need to flash anything else on to it. I heard people talk about battery scripts and all that. And changing the voltage and im not sure if im suppose to flash on a script or something. If there is something i need to flash then someone let me know. I just want a good battery thats why i choose siyah so maybe this script stuff is good. Plus theres not one theres mutiple scripts so then which one. Its all very confusing to me :? Soneone enlighten me please
Thks

Ask in the Siyah thread in the development section.
No you don't need cuz in version 2.6.3 we see
removed siyah-battery, siyah-defaults and siyah-performance scripts from the blog. please remove all existing scripts before installing this version (or flash your existing rom again to remove all scripts). use init.d scripts if you know what you do, otherwise use VoltageControl app or ThunderBolt! scripts. use this CWM recovery flashable zip to remove previous 01siyah script. just flash it once and /system/etc/init.d/01siyah script will be removed.

and for 2.6.6 you don't need zip for battery.
The scripts people are talking about are pikcahu's thunderbolt! scripts, you dont need to flash them if you dont want to, they can help, but performance/batt are good at stock values.
(Part of thunderbolt! is built into the kernel anyway)
Thanks guys so i should leave it at wat its at when i flashed 2.6.6

What do you want to change?
I would use voltage control myself, though with 2.6.6 it wont set max frequency correctly, that's supposed to be fixed next kernel version.
Well i use it to clock cpu lower at low battery and screen off

Yeh you can use setcpu to-do that, if you want! It wont hurt anything. Dont Undervolt to much or you may get instability.
By undervolt u mean underclocking right ?

No.. undervolting is lowering the voltage at each frequency step
Underclocking is lowering the max frequency.
eg setting the max to 1000mhz would be underclocking
setting 1000mhz to 1100mV would be undervolting (just an example)
I havent even touched voltage settings i have no exp in tht

Just set your idle cpu to 100 to 200mhz because lower than that you might get sod. Mine is 100mhz using siyah with extweak app.

I have a similar problem with custom roms. I have only tried 3 (Paranoid Android, Resurrection Remix and Slimbean) and the all had frozen my phone at least once a day while the screen is on. So I had to pull the battery then it decreases my battery significantly. I also tried different kernels but still the same result.
I don't undervolt or overclock it So I honestly don't understand why it's doing it. I however set the governor to performance.
Any help please? It's getting rather annoying. Thanks guys.

1. Post your present ROM and kernel details
2. Post your kernel configuration
3. Next time you have SOD/freeze, there is no need to pull the battery, just hold the power button for about 10secs, your device will restart

Performance governor caused the problem, if you want performance boost with Siyah kernel then use performance profile.
1. Uninstall voltage control
2. Download Extweaks from market
3. Run Extweaks
4. Reboot to recovery
5. Select kernel specific option
6. Select performance profile for Extweaks
7. Reboot phone
Your phone should fly now without freezing

Thanks but I changed governor to smartass 2 but I still had a freeze..but I will try use the kernel tweak instead.
I have just formatted my external sdcard as I have read corrupted files may cause freeze.
I have also noticed that it does it when the phone is on charge and while on the xda app lol. But then again that is what I am mostly on when I'm on my phone: )

i believed the reason why you changed your governor to performance was because you wanted to boost performance.
Siyah default governor favors more performance, use default governor.
If you want performance, then
Boot to recovery
Kernel specific option
Reset Extweaks profile settings
Select performance profile.
Reboot phone.
Change every other thing except the governor.
Now that you are experiencing freezes, use stable configuration first

Hi
I have the following setup:
ICS 4.0.3
MIUI v: 2.9.21
Baseband: I9100XXLQ6
Kernel: [email protected]))
Build no: MIUI-2.9.21 IML74K
Before this I had lots of other roms whether that be stock(latest) or custom. Same with kernels!

Can anyone help me through this?
Thanx

i can understand that it annoys a lot when phone lags....
also creating a thread in wrong place/section annoys a lot of people around here..
so next time ask question in q&a section
anyways for your problem of lagging..
- disable all animation from display settings (will help in restoring few fps)
- make sure u are using correct cpu settings..
- make sure that max frequency set is 832mhz..
- for speed, preffered governers are, smartassv2, performance, scary, lagfree and set i/o shedualer to bfq or noop..
i use those settings..!!
- even if that doesn't help much then reboot ur phone.
- or flash cosmic mods by areebjamal
hope it works

Yep remove this (may involve flashing a ROM?)
You can look at lowering your OOM values using something like SuperchargerV6 or a simple init.d script.

I already posted this on the Rootbox rom thread, but I know not everyone reads the whole thread so it might save a bunch of people from asking the same question on different threads over and over again. I have tried out a few 4.2.2 roms and they would always reboot randomly, I used the 4Aces kernel and the Uber kernel and got the same results, constant random reboots. I fixed the problem by turning off CPU profiles. I use SETCPU to overclock, but I assume this is a kernel problem that would happen no matter which app you use to overclock. Hope this helps others!
Just to clarify, I'm still overclocking my device I've just turned off the CPU profiles.
Thanks a lot Porkenhimer, Will try this fix asap.

Soo, yeah, OP, what exactly are "CPU Profiles". Is this some app? Or is it the setting like in SetCPU that lets you change profiles around in sleep, wake etc?
I don't see it on SetCPU.. Under the Profiles tab, the "Enable Profiles" is not checked. Never has been . I still get the occasional reboot but its somewhat rare at this point. Nothing to concern myself with

Did an experiment yesterday and today, I ran 5 random 4.2.2 ROMs each for two hours, 1 hour with no CPU profiles setup and 1 hour with CPU profiles setup and enabled. I used the 4Aces kernel for each test. I also used a different profile setup for each ROM. I did a full wipe before installing each ROM. The ROMs I used were PAC-Man, Alliance, Rootbox, ReVolt & Jellybeer. I did not install any apps except for SETCPU. I had a total of one reboot with CPU profiles turned off, which was with the PAC-Man rom, and the least amount of reboot I had was with Rootbox, which was 3 reboots in one hour with CPU profiles enabled. Its pretty clear to me that enabling CPU profiles at least with the 4Aces kernel, will cause reboots. I had used both both the 4Aces and Uber kernals before doing this test and got reboots on every 4.2.2 rom I tried so I'm guessing if I did the same exact test with the Uber kernel I would get the same results. I'm not saying that other things are not also causing reboots, but its clear to me that something bad is happening when CPU profiles are enabled.

Yes its the tab that says profiles in SETCPU.
Well you must have had a borinnnnng day haha. ... And your eyes must hurt for waiting on reboot.... I run 4/20 rootbox with profiles set for screen on 192/1242 WHEATLEY and screen off 192/972 powersave...4aces kernel. Only had one reboot and it was my daily driver for over a month. ...also the new base changes and merges may be messing with profiles set for set cpu in the newer 4.2.2 builds of roms and kernels. Cool to see someone giving that much time in a day to watch for reboots. Keep visine handy ...hope you figure out more

And actually run a logcat of it re booting with profiles and we will have some answers to what is causing the issue
