[Q] JB+Dorimanx 8.40/Stweaks - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've got this strange problem..I've set the "min frequency" to 200Mhz and the "max normal frequency" to 900 Mhz.So the device is supposed to operate in this range; For 30 minutes of using opera, facebook, some chat programs,email, the phone uses only 1000Mhz.
When I set back the "max norm. freq." to 1Ghz and the "max oc freq." to 1Ghz, the phone behaves as expected: it uses all frequency range, mostly 200Mhz.
I'm not much of a tweaker, but being stuck on 1000Mhz, when the max allowed is 900Mhz doesn't seem right to me...Now, am I missing something?Hope you can direct me Thanks

Ok so when you set it to 900 MHz, do you first set max_oc_freq to its lowest? Otherwise, setting max normal freq to 900 with max oc freq to say 1200 will cause issues. I doubt it's an issue with the kernel /governor, but how you're setting it up.

Yes, it is to its lowest - 1Ghz.Forgot to mention that the governor is CONSERVATIVE, scheduler - SIO;

Good. In that case, have you tried using a different governor? I use Hyper, believe it or not it's the most battery friendly for me but still awesome performance. I assume you're underclocked to save battery?

mate dnt matter wot gov/io it wont work properly. i tryed with every relase and uc work till screen is on . when u set max oc/normal freq tob 1000 works , when u set below work till screen is on , i reported this to dori , in my opinion this have to do with spliting freq for mormal and oc before that uc was working. i tryed use other aps to that same efect.

Ah right. That's a shame. It doesn't affect me as I overclock, not underclock but still, annoying.. So do you clock to less than 1Ghz? If so, what do you do to make it not stick on high frequencies all the time?

Hi fellas...
I'm having some difficulty trying to find a way to include the oc frequencies into an "ondemand"-like governor. Seems only the performance governor actually enables the oc frequency but then completely fixed.
Is this a limitation that frequencies over 1000 MHz are only available as static frequencies under the performance governor?
"Max normal frequency" in STweaks seems to indicate this.
Also is there any good way to "prime"-test the phone or is freezing the phone the only available indication of instability?
Appreciate the input... /Mike (Big thanks to dorimanx for this feature packed kernel)

What is the best setCPU setup?

im running the extreme1.92x kernel oc'd at 1.4 but not sure about the best setup to save battery. i made one profile for charging i put in on max. not sure what to do with the advanced tab settings.
Profiles are really dependent on the user and their needs. The one piece of advice I can give you is to make sure you have a profile set up in case your phone starts to over heat. An OC'ed phone maxed during a charge may get quite toasty.
any suggestions?
Imo dont o/c. Let the kernel operate the way it is setup. O/c cause reboots, phone heating up, and freezes.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I'm running Adrynalyne's 4.4.7 kernel and use the following and get really good battery life with no overheating and no lag. I don't do a screen of profile because the governor seems to handle that pretty well.
Normal 1024 max 245 min-Smartass governor
Profiles:
Battery < 25% 768 max 245 min-On demand Governor
Charging 1280 Max 245 min-Smartass governor

Does that actually work?
I thought you had to choose a default governor and setup profiles accordingly.
I didn't know you could setup profiles with a governor that wasn't active or chosen on boot.
the thunderbolt is so fast already theres really no need to over clock. i left it at stock for normal, toned down to 768 when <30% battery and down to 368 when screen off. its a little slow for about half a second when waking up but the battery life is amazing. i can make it through a whole day without charging with moderate use. also running ziggys bfs kernel on virusrom and that added a ton of speed. way better than overclocking that drains your battery
im not asking about overclocking or profiles, just want to know about advanced settings. everything is set to default -1.

What Rom are you using?
Go to settings, menu, wireless networks, mobile networks and uncheck the third box. No need to have mobile data always on for most peeps . You'll still have 4G n everything, but gain a good 1-2 maybe more hrs (depending on use, kernels, governor settings, and I/O scheduling. I personally am running BAMF 1.6.2 with adryns 4.4.7 kernel, no set CPU, using tool box for that at 245mhz min - 1.024GHz max with ondemand governor and most importantly SIO Scheduler. Try these n you will have amazing performance and better battery life. Let me know you opinions

[Q] Overclock HyperDroid v5.2.21?

Hi, i have just flashed the new HyperDroid v5.2.21 (Full wipe) and i wanted to know if i can overclock my SGS2 from 1.2ghz to 1.5ghz, if so how do i go about it?
Do i need to change the current kernel (XWL1)?
P.S ive heard its stable, but does it drain the battery?
Thanks XDA Community
Hello there. Yep you can overclock but you need a kernel that supports it. [url="http://gokhanmoral.com]SiyahKernel[/url] is a good choice. With that, use the Voltage Control app from the market.
However I know nothing about battery draining or stability... dualcore 1.2GHz mobile processor is more than enough for me, and the phone can get pretty hot under maximum load, same with the MALI GPU which can be overclocked to 400MHz (but since it has 4 cores and the phone has no active heatsinks it could get risky...)

Yes you can overclock and you can stick with the kernel that comes with Hyperdroid. I am currently Overclocking 1.6ghz max and 200 min. Not touching voltages though. Use No-Frills app to set it up. My advice though to you no point in overclocking as 1.2ghz is good enough as it is..And the kernel you are on is good enough...It is stable depending what voltage frequencies you use..I say leave it as they are. And like i said download No-Frills from the market..Set your clock speeds and that should be it..Choose a governor and off you go

No-Frills ? AndroidMeda Developers recommend Voltage Control (and I personally like it much more than No-Frills, too) with their kernel.
+ Here is a small guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036020 how to test your OC Settings, I use it when I am testing new voltages.
Thanks for the replies i will try out the no-frills app and see what happens. What would you say is the best governor to use? and wouldnt you recommend going over 200min?

Pongster uses No-Frills. The rest of the team uses Voltage Control. And to avoid any freezes or random reboots leave the voltage settings as they are till you get to grips with the overclocking. Hence why i suggested No-Frills as currently Voltage Control for me kept on reverting back to stock frequencies..And yes there is a way round it but it is to much of an effort

I am currently using ondemand and Sio as scheduler. You can not go wrong with that. Like i said..choose a governor choose a scheduler and let them do the work...I also do recommend Voltage control but No-frills is simple and does the job for you. And no i would recommend either go to 100min or stick with 200...I am currently on 1.6max and 200 min

[Q] Under Clocking will help in Battery Drain . Did anyone tested UC instead of OC?

I am using Custom ROM with Cynogenmod settings inside settings menu. In that there is an option for Over Clocking & Under Clocking. I set that to 480 Mhz . Now the battery last for one and half day. Earlier my battery last only for half day. I do not game much. Only internet browsing , emails, phone calls and messaging. Using a 2g connection & no wifi . In my opinion if you are not using heavy applications just do UC.
I feel some lag in gallery and while playing hd videos. But it doesn't matter when comparing the heavy battery drain while CPU running @ 800 Mhz.
Please test at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damages .

Haha! Yeah man, I tried the exact same thing. But it makes my phone lag like hell and really slow.
I rather have a fast phone and battery than a fast connection and no battery.
If there is some option to set the clock in 600 Mhz . It will be much better. This one will good only for those using light applications.

Lol, same here. CM settings FTW!
Please set the min frequency below max frequency. My Min frequency is 122 mhz & Max frequency is 480 mhz with governor set as on demand . Because when the phone is idle the frequency should be minimum . Otherwise there will be battery drain.

Share your Voltage Control Settings!

Some of you may recall my similar thread for SetCPU...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321136&page=8
Well I recently switched over from SetCPU to VC and am quite happy with it... figured I'd make a thread for users to share their experiences with the app...
First a few ground rules...
You must share the following info...
Kernel, Rom, Paid of Free version of the app, Screen on time, and all your settings in the fields in the app. Also include your average battery life on a full charge and if you're on the stock battery/charger or not. *Pics are encourages and appreciated.*
my config is in my sig...
I'm also using the paid version of VC which is awesome and I have undervolted quite a bit.
*The following voltages are being tested for stability*
Noop + Ondemand
100mhz-1200mhz
1200mhz: 1200 mV
1000mhz: 1050 mV
800mhz: 950 mV
500mhz: 850 mV
200mhz: 850 mV
100mhz: 825 mV
GPU 114-267mhz
114 @ 800
267 @ 950
I average about 24hrs - 26hrs of battery pending my use with about 3hrs of screen on time.
Purpose of this thread is to exchange information on how to get a better performing and more battery efficient phone using some tweaks.
P.S. Remember all phones are different and you should NEVER expect someone else's config to work for you. The purpose in this is to get a base line for tweaking and help out users with little or no knowledge about getting good battery life and also how to make their phone faster/more efficient.
Thanks
Nice to see a similar thread for the i777 model running Entropy's kernel as well. As I always say, caring is sharing lol
Crack on mate. This kind of info makes it so much easier for new users to get started with undervolting without having too many trial and error headaches.

Not getting the battery life i would like, i still drop a few percent per hour when not doing anything, but im pretty sure thats because im on 2.3.6! ive been trying to do that gpu 3 step thing i keep hearing about via scripts but it seems to mess up my voltage settings!
anyway here they are! i cant wait to see what others have!
A question: Do you use both VC and SetCPU? Won't the governor setting in VC clash with the governor settings/advance settings and profiles set in SetCPU?
Fearing that, just today morning I switched to VC Lite from SetCPU (and froze SetCPU) as I wanted scheduler control.
VC Lite settings:
Scheduler: noop
Governor: conservative
Frequencies: 200-1000
Voltages:
1600 - 1400mV
1400 - 1250mV
1200 - 1200mV
1000 - 1100mV
800 - 1000mV
500 - 900mV
200 - 850mV

Well personally I set a voltage then assign my min and Max to the frequency that corresponds to the newly set voltage and then run a benchmark to see if any issues occur.

Do you simply run something like Antutu Benchmark? Or does VC Pro have stress testing?

You'll find that you can run lower voltage on a forced single stepping than you can when the CPU has several steppings to choose from. For some reason the CPUs don't play well if you go to low or if it has to make to big of a jump between certain steppings.

running Antutu to test each step?

I no longer use setcpu and I do run quadranrt or antutu usually. pro version has no such stress test, but if you ask me... one should be implemented in a future update.
What amazes me is the difference a rom can make. Running Siyah 2.6.11 with the exact same VC settings (the ones in the OP of this thread) on CM7 nightly and ShoStock 1.9.1 and running Quadrant the results are about 1000-1500 points higher on cm7 nightly. From a user feel perspective they are both smooth as butter but I wonder what makes CM7 so much faster on the synthetic benchmark. Has to be a storage I/O thing or something. Battery life seems to be better for me on ShoStock though.

Yea, I too have noticed slight variations on different roms as well.
CM7 nightly 01/24/12
I/O Scheduler : SIO
Governor : ondemand
200Mhz-1200Mhz
1200Mhz : 1200mV
1000Mhz : 1100mV
800Mhz : 1000mV
500Mhz : 900mV
200Mhz : 875mV
Phone has been on for 6hr with 1hr 5mins screen on time and I'm sitting at 80%
Got 6520 in Antutu at 1200Mhz with this setup

I used to test steps individually but again what's stable individually might not be stable with all the other steps included. I usually will quickly run through apps like mms, email, video, web, and also run a few BMs like antutu
A useful app with all the bells and whistles, with the capabilities of almost every utility app available is ROM Toolbox. I use it to edit voltage, CPU frequency, build.props, etc. Look into it if you're tired of trying hundreds of different programs for different features.

Nice to see a similar thread for the i777 model running Entropy's kernel as well. As I always say, caring is sharing lol
Crack on mate. This kind of info makes it so much easier for new users to get started with undervolting without having too many trial and error headaches.
If anyone wants to know my settings for Siyah and VC, then click the MagicConfig link in my sig.

I've been using those settings with shostock rom and I have to say it has been working wonderfully

vc and set cpu
How do they get alone? Im afraid they might not like each other.

I feel all the JB ROMs‘ battery life is not good

I can see the cpu is always at the maximum cpu frequency
Do you have a same feeling as me?

if u cpu statys at high frequency; theres sth wrong.
i use JB roms for long time, and the cpu has same behaviour as in ICS.
i mean i give u right JB is not super battery efficient, but i dont think its only due to CPU load
try to change kernel/ go to neewest rom version, and try to change govenor
Which Rom do you use ?
