Okay so I have Android tuner installed right now(Have tried many other similar cpu governor also.), and every time I bring the slider up to 2.72ghz it jumps back down to stock freq. I can get around it by reducing the low clock then raising the high clock freq's, but it's only temporary. It eventually jumps back to stock. Now.. I hear this may have something to do with the voltage. But I dont know nearly enough to mess with it. If anyone has any info or even a step by step guide to tweaking voltage please point me in the right direction. I am currently running a stock debloated touchwiz rom/rooted and with the lean kernel. Everything else on the phone is running impeccably.

I'm unfamiliar with any of the lean kernel characteristics, but the beast kernel only supports overclocking, not undervolting. I use SetCPU, profiles enabled, very basic. See screenshot.

Thank's. I just gave this a try but it seems to be sticking at 2.7ghz right now despite the profiles I set. It's been doing this since I rooted my phone and did it even while I was running beastmode.
I'm at a loss. =/
Still gaving this problem. Everytime I try to change cpu freq I get the message failed to change cpu settings.

Yes, Moon, I'm speaking to you. But everybody else, please provide some feedback, as I would highly appreciate the help.
I've attached some pics of what's running on my system. By far the most battery intensive processes are "System processes"
Here they are. Any help toward the goal of alleviating battery woes would be highly appreciated.
Rom: Auxura 2.0.5 with Eugene Kernel B 1120, JK2 Modem, on all black theme.

If you remove "WiFi calling" you will get allot more battery.
It is the reason I removed it from the ROM in the first place..
^ I figured that was the case for removing wifi calling... do you plan on removing DRM also?
Definitely removed drm there's two of them.
Master thanks for the heads up on wifi calling but it happens to's be one of the apps that I must have because of no reception here. That's why I phrased my question specifically to system processes.
Thanks again. Still looking for some insight.

I'm also running Axura 2.0.5 with the 1120 kernel and I'm also getting awful battery life. I think it has more to do with the kernel and the lag fix then with the rom. When I was running Axura with it's stock kernel battery life was fine. Now I only get about 10 to 12 hours even with very little use.

Amen charlie. Thanks for the response.
Im trying to figure out what the deal is with system processes. But yes you're right performance over longevity. Kernel b is a lifesucker.
Thanks for the post.

This might help, I use Axura 2.0.5 and Obsidian v5, my system panel was always running and my battery life sucked. I would loose 10 - 20% battery in sleep mode.
So I tried 7 different kernels and all the ULF lagfix's till one worked.
Automemory killer
Kernel Stock-22
Lagfix RyanZA one click, "move all apps off the SD card back to the phone"
It's in the directions under help
Using the phone as I normally do, I was able achieve 1 day 4 hours with 22% left with out charging.
Other ppl are doing better "I think" but, this works for me. Hope it helps.

I have a question about Project Epsilon v3 ROM.
I'm currently on 676.226.3.XT910.Retail.en.EU ICS leak.
I'm going to install this rom via Bootmenu.
And here is my question. Do I have to wipe data or only cache and dalvik? Or maybe I don't have to wipe data but it is better to do so?
Thanks in advance!
Better do it I personally always do that, or just follow the ROM guidelines, now is easier to get all the apps with titanium and other apps.
Also to update from v3 to v4 I recommend full wipes to because I had some problems with wallpapers and widgets.
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
Thanks! I did the wipe, however I have few new question.
First. Is it really worth to upgrade to v4? I heard that there are some problem with it and some people said that it's better to stick to V3.
Second. I did battery calibration like in ROM guide once (Did it today that's why), however I'm still having terrible battery life with display taking 80% of power. Any solution for that?
I'd stay in V3. What do you call terrible battery life? There are some threads that approach battery "readings". The info portrayed by widgets and some apps could be misleading IMHO. That 80% is how much battery the screen has used but not out of the total battery. I have gotten almost two days on a single charge, and screen consumption is never less than 70%. That is regardless of the time i check the battery information. It seems battery will constantly be in that 70, 80% area.

And it always takes 1-2 days or more for the battery to "settle" when you change ROM.
Try using CPU Sleeper in Play. It switches off 1 of the cores on a dual/quad core phone, everytime your screen is turned off. It works better than the Sleep option when you press the On/Off button on the phone, this Sleep option doesn't ring when someone tries calling you. With CPU Sleeper - on my tests it lost 5% battery life in 12 hours.

Wow if that is the case I'm going to give that a shot!!
I have one more question.
I use blur camera but i miss this cool sound when taking photo that was on GB and ICS Leak. But in project epsilon there is only some kind of beeb. Is it possible to bring back photo making sound? xP! That would be coool!
Recently I found some settings by which my phone xperia u became smoother and performance was enhanced ( quadrant score went beyond 3000 for first tym)
Go to developer options
1.Set background process limit from standard to 2
2.Enable gpu rendering
These settings do work
Just check ur benchmark scores before n after to confirm
Press thanks if this helped
It doesn't helped much but round 100 points more in Antutu
working. I never saw my Flipboard so fast like it is now. My Quadrant improve from 2400+ to 2900+. I think this works especially with simple apps like face, flipboard, etc.
While you may get better performance in particular apps, because of it closing down other apps so all have a bit more free ram. You do loose out on the multi tasking front, and when opening apps after each other the phone will have reload the app info.
I prefer having my most used apps still open and running. So that they open right away, rather than having to wait a second or two for the app to launch again.
But it depends how you use your phone I guess
Try again it will cross 3000
Forcing 2d acceleration makes your 2d quadrant score higher, that's all.

Hey guys,
I've just unrooted my phone, made a full data wipe (with the mega wipe script ), flashed the new I9300ZSEMA1 via odin.
I reainstalled all the application I had.
My phone it's still (I've done all this to free my phone form the UI's lag maledition ) lagging.
It happens many times when i click bottoms and it has to load smth.
Apart from this, it happens other times casually, event though it's not that evident, but I see there's ppl here saying "my phone it's never lagging", "it's smoother than ever", "it's a beast", etc.. so i want to understand!
Here's my info screen

As said, it's stock 4.2.1, unrooted.
I was thinking about installing a kernel like Siyah and manipulating smth about screen from there.
Are there any other options? Which ones?
I've tried (without much of a success ) the subsequent moves:
1 Delevoper Option --> Force GPU rendering [ON]
2 Developer Option --> Disable hardware overlays [ON]
3 Developer Option -->Window animation scale [0.5x]
4 Developer Option --> Transition animation scale [0.5x]
5 Removing Samsung weather widget from the home screen
And that's my current configuration, for what it's worth.
Where would you go from here?
P.S. CAN I SET THE IMAGE RESIZE VIA BBCODE?
Is resizing it previously the only way?
Why are you messing with settings you clearly know little of? You should never have "Disable hardware overlays" on. That sure as hell won't make your phone smoother.
thank you for your help, i'm trying to move smth!
what does Disable hardware overlays mean?

Read this:
Without a hardware overlay every application that is displaying things on the screen will share video memory and will have to constantly check for collision and clipping to render a proper image, this can cost a lot of processing power. With a hardware overlay each application gets its own portion of video memory, getting rid of the need to check for collision and clipping.
Basically, using hardware overlays can reduce CPU usage by quite a bit, so I would leave it enabled.

no one?
Install either Siyah or Perseus kernel and remove bloatware which you don't use

Maybe it lags because you're trying too hard to make it not lag, which currently is impossible. Try flashing a heavily debloated rom like WanamLite, then apply gokhan's latest siyahkernel, then try "bestmultitaskingfix v7" and let everything settle for a few days.
Also, don't be worried if it lags a lot just after boot-up, it's bound to do so while caching.

Hi Everyone,
Looking for some feedback from the forum.. please help.
I've always felt my phone ran very hot compared to other devices but I recently clocked it at 40 °C using GSAM.
I should note i've made some changes recently, including installing (and playing) Dungeon Hunters as well as Nova Launcher and a few homescreen widgets. I don't use a live wallpaper. Has anyone had their device run that hot ? I'm wondering if this is a software or hardware driven issue and if this warrant a service call (warranty/exchange).
help.. this phone is giving me sweaty ballz.

If your phone gets hot then this is an indication that your processor and/or GPU has to work pretty hard for some reason. It could be a background app that uses a lot of CPU power (had that once myself). Best way is to indicate what uses your cpu when your phone gets hot.
So install an App that will monitor your CPU and that will tell you what app uses your cpu to what extend.
You can use this App for example:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEwOSwiY29tLmVvbHdyYWwub3Ntb25pdG9yIl0.
I also have the same issue. I visited to sc they changed my battery nd motherboard ( phone was also heating). But still same my cpu usage is only 5-18% but battery temp is 41c.

Try to install the app Greenify, that you can put the program that you don't close to hibernate. I was having this problem and after this solved. Just to remember that i did a defrag with anothet app too.
