After many many attempts of making my own scripts (and failing horribly), I found a decent base and created multiple scripts that use the conservative governor for better battery life and a mixture of performance and battery life. I'll be posting a couple variants for different kernels.
You'll need SManager or ROM Toolbox to run these scripts.
These will create MUCH BETTER CPU scaling. You might notice slight, but quick, lag when the screen transitions under the performance and balanced scripts. The battery saving one will definitely have lag in it.
I personally prefer the balanced tweaks.
NEW SCRIPTS TO WORK WITH ALL KERNELS THAT SUPPORT THE CONSERVATIVE GOVERNOR!

Hi, I'm on Stock JB and ME Kernel V4.1,
can I use these scripts without kind of problem??
Thanks.

The ones from Box. Not the ones directly uploaded to XDA. Once I get to a computer, I'll upload some better scripts I've got going and one that works extremely well for houstonn's 162MHz kernel.

FIOPS, Deadline, and CFQ are all way better than BFQ.
Yeah I know. I use FIOPS, now. Got a few different scripts that I'll upload shortly which will make wheatley, ondemand, interactive and intellidemand better on battery.

Hi,I don't know if i am doing something wrong...but I run your script with toolbox on stock JB and ME kernel and charged full the battery yesterday before i go to sleep (11pm) and when I woke up the battery its 85% (8am). What is happening?? (I used the scripts on BOX)

You need to search on how to disable fast dormancy.

Currently using SuperICS 1.0.3 nightly on my S2G. With so many governors and i/o to choose I'm confused which is better. Would you guys tell me which governor and i/o are the best for saving battery as I'm always switching between data and wifi. Used to use hotplug with noop but it isn't available in SuperICS. Am using smartassV2 and noop.
Thanks in advance.

Mate if u can u can try pegasus + sio for battery if u have available but best thing wot you can do if u look in general section and find thread abut that in that thread you will find out everything wot you need
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
you can get kernels which come with applications, for example Siyah kernel comes with an application, ExTweaks. you'll need ExTweaks pro to switch profiles in-app but otherwise you can change in recovery, there is a battery optimized profile which I found rather good, a performances optimized and the default profile. I personally use Dorimanx kernel, its based on Siyah kernel but has tweaks already made, it gives me great battery life and great performance aswell. The best thing you can do is experiment
Hi everyone,
I'm really really sorry for asking a seemingly stupid question like this, but I browsed the forum and asked google to no avail:
How do I activate/enable the smartAssV2 governor (or any others for that matter)? SetCPU or CPU Master show only 4 governors, I think those are the default ones. But if I'm not mistaken, the other govenors (looking for smartassv2 myself) should be included in CM9, right? I have a rooted SGS2 and the CM9 "final" installed. Didn't find the govenors on my SGS+ either, but didn't think too much about it.
I also tried downloading the governor and installing it in CWM, but that just gave me an error...
hope somebody can help....
Different kernels have different governors. Try looking through some kernel threads to see which ones have the governors you need. Siyah has SmartassV2, amongst many others.

LOL I was asking OP
Well, at first I was using the stock CM9 kernel (which should have the smartassv2 governor I think), now I'm using the Fluxi kernel (which also has the governor, according to the description) - but with neither of these kernels I can select anything else than "interactive", "conservative", "ondemand" and "performance"...
Oh, and btw, I already looked in lib/modules, and there is no module for smartassV2 - but then again, maybe it is compiled into the kernel? how can I check this?
I think this is something really simple that I missed, but all the tutorials also just say "install CM9, select smartassV2 as governor..." so I'm assuming it should just be there?
Installed the Dorimax kernel, now I have other governors...which is OK, but I'm still confused as to why no other governors showed for the CM9 kernel. I can live with this "solution" though.
I too face a similar problem. I flashed siyah kernel in my sgs2 and couldn't find smartassv2 governor. I tried setcpu, no frills cpu and even stweaks. I have all other governors like lulzactive and hotplug but no smartassv2. Is there a way to find it? This is driving me crazy for days.
Sorry if i posted in wrong section but this thread was related.
Thanks in advance.
Hey, I've noticed DorimanX brings the 'Hyper' governor enabled as default, and I was wondering what is the difference between this one and 'ondemand' (which was on default in CM10 original kernel)

Hyper is a performance and battery governor but mostly performance
Ondemand is different from cm10s because it's battery tweaked so it's better for battery than normal and than HYPER
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
So would you suggest dormancy on demand over other governors?

Yes I would suggest ondemand if it's battery saving with some performance you want. If you only want battery saving I would recommend conservative
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Hello,
I noticed that Dorimanx keep Hyper as geovernor (and relative cpu freqs), even if you try and change them via SetCPU and similars.
Is there a way to force different governos with different freqs?

I think is not stable enought, this is because you get worst results.
I found less freeze (almost none) for my overclocks over 1.2GHz but much more launcher redraws, app crash, slow and laggy UI .Don't ask me why this happen :laugh:.
Under 1.2GHz if I mess with voltages (even a bit) I got 100% a freeze.

Thank you all. I checked your opinions and found ondemand-noop 200-1150 is most compatible for me.
I am using cfq & ondemand good preformance
For multicore processor, Sio will give good performance by splitting jobs, hotplug governor turns off other cores and runs only one core at light usage, saves battery.
pegasusq & hotplug is always good for battery and performance in multicore processors and also the sio and noop scheduler
