I want to know how to underclock or undervolt my phone so as to slow down battery drain. Please help. Setcpu doesnt work - I just discovered that it's one of those fake processor apps.

You need a kernel that supports underclocking & undervolting. Assuming you have such kernel, use No-Frills CPU Control app. It can underclock your CPU, gives you some statistical data about clocking frequency & change governor & I/O Schedular.
I was previously using SetCPU on my phone, and it worked fine. Probably you didn't have proper kernel (plus HTC devices have Perflock) or app may be incompatible.

+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.
+2 for SetCPU

-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
Hi everyone, I have come from sgs to sgs2 and I do not know which app to use to undervolt. I used pimp my cpu in sgs and apparently I heard voltage control works but when I go into the app it does not show me the screen to undervolt. Only have general gpu and charging and about phone and info. I am using siyah kernel now. Can someone tell me what to do?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I personally prefer setcpu than voltage control. Unless u got the extreme version
U can get setcpu for free(XDA members exclusive) at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
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

I use AnTuTu and Quadrant
ps cpu crashes at 1800Mhz run at 1704
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?

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

I overclocked gpu in a way that I can use asphalt without lag at 500mhz, also for minecraft I use at 300mhz and for more demanding games I use 1ghz

What app do u use to overclock your gpu... I use the native viper app to overclock the cpu but th egpu option I don't see

Gpu overclocks itself on-demand, I didn't implement anything for user control, instead it is better to be this way

On this device even 1.5 is borderline. Anything over THAT u got problems.
1.48 is the most stable safest and still really damm fast.
Be mindful of governor settings. Research your kernel before taking on OC mods.

You most likely have a performance option that came with the Custom Rom or are running an app that has System App access , which will over ride a User App. Double check all apps and settings to see if you have any other programs that have system user rights to your CPU, that is most likely what is over taking your desired settings.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm on the Android Revolution HD 8.0 ROM now, that is probably the reason for this. Can I do something with this?

Open up the app your using to undervolt, these should be an option to restore default values. Once back on default go ahead and open the programs' App info and disable or freeze it. Reboot and run your CPU spy app and see what is taking charge of your voltage. Also possible your voltages are not sticking which has to do with the ROM. Id suggest running profiles for CPU rather then undervolt. I. E. 534 mhz - 1434 mhz when screen on, 348-1012 when screen off. SetCPU is what i use. You have less of a chance of frying the motherboard and doing irreversible damage to your phone internally

Undervolt has to do with lowering the power that goes to the battery. when desired mhz occurs, where as underclocking has to do with specifically CPU processors and with a specified setting (screen off, music app on) occurring. Just to clear up my previous post. Undervolting the battery use to do wonders on phones a few years back because of all around poor battery life on most devices. But nowadays it is pretty pointless.

The only app that seems to work properly with Sense stock kernel is Tegra Overclock.
