I am running the latest Viper Redline Rom with Chads Kernel RLS09 and was wondering what the best CPU governor is out there. Currently I use SetCPU with it set to OnDemand, but I keep reading about other programs out there that might be better than SetCPU for reasons they don't list. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

System Tuner for sure is much more detailed and polished.
also no frills cpu, small footprint and functional.

+1 system tuner
I agree system tuner is a good alternative, but on viper ROM it's got the OC daemon, and undervolting, so it's got it's own built in "system tuner" that does it all....I really liked these features... But it's all personal preference of course.

Hi everyone,
This is the first time owning a Samsung device, so the pegasusq governor is a new thing to me, I read about what it actually is on a thread but I wanted to ask to fellow S3 owners what are they using for great battery life - performance ratio?
I'm running Omega 6.0, slipstreamed loads of crap that is not needed (from the "safe to remove" thread) with Apex Launcher. I'm only using 2 homescreens, dark wallpaper, etc, the typical works to try and improve battery life.
Now the thing is, with SetCPU I'm running the default pegasusq governor ranging from 200mhz -1400mhz. Is the pegasusq governor the right choice here? Isn't it basically a variant of the OnDemand governor but Samsung proprietary for quadcore CPUs? I also recall reading a mention of S3's freezing or not waking up when it's set from the lowest underclocking point (200mhz), is that right? I've been using this for a few hours and no problems yet, but just wanted to know what are everyone elses experiences and what's the best configuration that has worked individually for you!
Cheers! Hope I complied with the rules, I did do a search but didn't find anything of this nature apart from a few separate questions!
I use the same governor, 100Mhz - 1704Mhz. No issues. Works great.
Siyah kernel is using pegasusq so i think it is the best governer there is. if you're on stock kernel or lowest underclocking is 200mhz but in custom kernels you can use 100mhz.
I have set my SetCPU to 100mhz - 1200mhz and undervolting all 18-steps to -50mv. I seldom reboot my phone but not encounter any freeze on boot
You should try tweaks for improving the battery life and peformance. Like supercharger, zipalling , random build.prop tweaks.... Etc xD but yeah use the samsungs "for quad core"
Thank you for the prompt replies everyone!
I remember with my Desire the whole development community was pretty much "set in stone" if you will, so it was really easy to choose a kernel etc.
Is there a kernel that you recommend? Is anyone using a "Screen Off" profile without any problems? If so what's the range you have it set at? That's what I was mostly scared as I remember on my Desire the lockscreen or taking calls would lag quite a bit but obviously this is a different beast altogether!
I'm also using AutoKiller Memory with Extreme Settings and some tweaks applied as well.
I use Siyah clocked 100-1704 screen on. 100-300 screen off. No issues.

I set mine to 100-600 not having any issues, when reiveng notification/phone calls doesn't lag at all. Just don't use "power saving" option.

3rd party apps don't to any good to battery life it only consumes more(for me) cause it's always running in your background which consumes memory and also battery life.
stock task manager is pretty good, been use it always. Closing all apps and clearing memory

Nah, Autokiller isnt a task manager.
Basically, Android automatically kills empty processes (etc) at specified RAM levels. It does this anyway. But on High end RAM packed devices, these values are too low to be of any use as the phone will seldom hit that low a level of free RAM.
Autokiller simply adjusts these values to be more useful for high end devices.
Actually, you don't need autokiller to do this. You can do it in an init.d script although I've not tested this on the SGS3 as I haven't seen a need.
Here is an example I wrote for my Desire AOSP ROM:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "8192,16384,19200,23040,25600,30720" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
Default SGS3 is:
Code:
8192, 10240, 12288, 14336, 16387, 25600
These are for:
Foreground App, Visible App, Secondary Server, Hidden App, Content Provider, Empty App
I just bought my Samsung Galaxy S3 Gt-I9300 and am really new to Android. So I've installed paranoidandroid and the siyah kernel. What are the most optimum settings that i should do with the stweak to get the most out of the battery, but at the same time there is little or no compromise in performance?
Thanks:laugh:
Hi,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28491201&postcount=6 and scroll down at the end of the post. There are different settings (flashable zip's) for Stweaks profiles and governor tweaks for battery life/performance...
You need to test also by yourself to find the best settings that suits your needs...
And battery life depends of the kernel settings (CPU/GPU overclock or not, etc...) but also of your settings (sync, apps that drain battery, brightness etc...).
Thank you. Will read and apply the flashable zips.

Hey, so basicly im running cm10,2 on my SIII and im just woundering what the best tweaks/mods are to improve battery life,
so far i have
install rom toolbox pro, and set the cpu profiles up as to lower cpu power as the battery drains
(confued as to what i/o scheluler i should use, and governor, i have done lots and reading but selectedi/o cfq and gov is pagasusk
plus under sysctl tweaks and govenor there are alot more setting, but im affraid to touch them as i dont want to become unstable
i also have greenefy and du battery saver i also have trustgo antivirus,
also if someone could help me, du battery saver have cpu lowering capabilys and if i was to use it with rom toolbox pro cpu profiles, would this conflict,
my kernel is 3.064-cm-g0a49c6d
and ive been looking at pimp my rom, app, but i dont know if its safe and benifishal,
sorry for spelling,
cheers jason
not sure if you're mentioning undervolting with "lowering cpu power" but if you're not you should try to undervolt your cpu

These kernel settings are dead! They will not be updated or worked on. Support has ended for them! If you want to keep using settings like this but that are better please switch to the Nebula Kernel!
Here is a link to the new kernel settings for the Nebula Kernel!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/kernel-settings-nebulakernel-rev10-2-1-t3258520
##############################################################################################################################
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! MIGHT NOT WORK FOR ALL G3!!
MAKE BACKUP OF YOUR DEVICE BEFORE USING THESE FILES!!!
Please Do not change or mod these settings or re-release them! If you do i will hunt you down and murder your favorite pet and turn them into a nice steak! [That was a joke......]
This thread is for setting i made for the LG G3 Verizon Wireless (vs985)
These settings are to be used with SetCPU and Trickster Mod (You'll need Trickster Mod donate pack to restore the Trickster Mod backup settings)
These settings .zip are not flashable. You will need to unzip the pack ON DEVICE.
PACK includes:
SetCPU profiles:
Multimedia - Other, Multimedia - Photos, Multimedia - Music, Multimedia - Video, Multimedia - Camera, Emulator- MyBoy!, Social, Google Chrome, GPS Navigation and Maps [NO ACTIVE], Phone/Contacts, HIGH TEMP!! 170+oF+!!, Games (HD-Large), Games (HD-Small), Charging (AC/USB), Screen Off, Everyday Use. Those are the profiles in the SetCPU pack. They are still being tweaked!
Trickster Mod Setting: EXTREME Undervolting, On_demand Governor tweaking, minfree_Control (RAM Management), 1512 i/o fiops, and some other awesome things! They are still being tweaked!
Install directions for these files:
1. Download the .zip file from this page
2. Unzip pack
3. Put the LG G3 CM12.x JediKernel 3.0 [1.x] [2.88GHz].setcpu.json in the root of your onboard SD card partition. SetCPU will find the files on its own when you go and restore it
4. Put the LG G3 (vs985) CM12.1 JediKernel 3.0 2.88GHz [09-19-2015] file in the tm_profiles folder in the on board SD card partition.
Then go into Trickster Mod and touch restore and select the latest version of the files
5. Download NOMone Resolution Changer and set your Resolution to 1080 x 1920 with the DPI settings of 320! This is just something i forgot to add! This will help you get MAXIMUM proformance and battery life since your display will not be pushing a 1440p resolution! LINK TO APP [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nomone.resolution_changer&hl=en]
6. ENJOY THESE FILES and you're instantly AWESOME LG G3!
I do not take ANY credit AT ALL for the making of the kernel! I did not build the KERNEL! All credit goes to @ptmr3 !
These settings ONLY work on the JediKernel! If you use the Trickster Mod Settings on any other kernel the device will crash and boot loop

[CHANGELOG]
09-12-2015: [V1.0 Stable]
1.Release of the pack!
2.Release pack date isn't current but it's the newest/latest build/compile of the settings pack.
09-18-2015: [V1.1 Stable]
1. SetCPU: Multimedia-Camera Added Open camera
2. SetCPU: Google Chrome lowered MAX CPU Freq from 1959MHz to 1728MHz for stability
3. Trickster Mod: Much needed CPU voltage tweaking! Now more stable but keeping extreme undervolting and keeping temp down and saving battery
4. Trickster Mod: OnDemand Governor tweaking. Now CPU and GPU play nicely together. If any lag or frame drops were in the last build it is most likely gone.
09-19-2015: [V1.2 Stable]
1. SetCPU: Nothing changed!
2. Trickster Mod: CPU voltages raised for more stability!
3. Trickster Mod: OnDemand Governor tweaked. Still testing can't tell if it drops performance or raised it up a bit!
09-19-2015: [V1.2-1 Stable]
1. Added Kernel Adiutor support! READ FILE INSTALL DIRECTIONS ABOVE! [STILL IN TESTING STAGE]
09-23-2015: [V1.3 STABLE]
1. Trickster Mods: Fixed CPU voltage setting for more system stability.
2. Trickster Mod: Reverted back to On Demand settings that were in V1.1!
3. SetCPU: No Change. Changes coming next version build release!
4. Kernel Adiutor: Turns out the settings i released for this app don't work. The file in this pack has not been updated nor does it work from what i have heard from a tester!
10-01-2015: [V1.4 STABLE]
1. Trickster Mod: Fixed CPU voltages! Its more stable now!
2. Trickster Mod: Updated On-Demand Governor! I tweaked the settings a little bit! The user can try the setting if they want! By default it is 0.2 but 0.3 is the testing settings (That is if it shows both!)
3. SetCPU: Multimedia - Video: Added Popcorn Time Remote
4. SetCPU: Google Chrome: Put MAX CPU freq/speed from 1728MHz to 1958MHz
5. SetCPU: Charging (AC/USB): Put MAX CPU freq/speed from 2572MHz to 2457MHz
6. SetCPU: Screen Off: Changed Governor from conservative to On Demand for better proformance when waking the display hopefully battery life will not change. Please change the Governor to conservative because On Demand drains a little battery. It sat in 268MHz for a hour because the Governor was being hyperactive!
7. GPU Navigation and Maps NOW enabled and added Maps (Google Maps) The reason it was disabled was because i was having issues with it not switching to profile when Google Maps was opened. Still testing this profile! Tell me if you got it to work and how!
11-08-2015: [V1.5 STABLE]
1.Trickster Mod: Fixed/tweaked the Voltages! The devices seems more stable for me but i still tweaking the to get the most out of the device!
2.Trickster Mod: The OnDemand Governor was tweaked but i'm still using the 0.2 version because it seems to be the most perfect for everything!
3. SetCPU: I made too many changes and upgrades to the profiles to be able to write them all down. I made to new profiles Games HD large and small.
11-11-2015: [V1.6 STABLE-TESTING]
1. SetCPU: Changed MAX CPU freq for Screen Off profile from 576MHz down to 499MHz
2. SetCPU: Added TrueCaller and TrueDialer to the Phone, Contacts profile
3. SetCPU: Tweaked some other small things that forgot.
4. Trickster Mod: Complete Redo/Remake of the already extreme under voltage settings! This is still be tweaked! Not 100% stable yet. I've had a few crashing while using my phone.
11-13-2015: [V1.6.1 STABLE-TESTING]
1. SetCPU: No changes. Comes with the same file that is in 1.6 STABLE-TESTING package
2. Trickster Mod: More speaking of the voltages. Still have crashing here and there but i'm still working on perfecting it!
SEE NEWEST/LATEST THREAD POST TO SEE THE VOLTAGE TABLE COMPARED TO STOCK VOLTAGES!
11-18-2015: [V1.6.2 STABLE-TESTING]
1. SetCPU: Camera: Changed Max frew from 1728 to 1958 and changed governor from conservative to OnDemand.
2. SetCPU: Multimedia Video: Changed Max freq from 1958 to 1728 because i kept getting crashing while playing YouTube videos in 720p 60FPS
3. SetCPU: Multimedia Music: Changed Max freq from 2265 to 1958 because i was getting better battery life with Google Play Music.
4. Trickster Mod: Tweaking of the voltages. It's a lot more stable now! I'm getting a whole day of battery life with light to medium use and still get 80% of battery at the end of the day!
Please report back after updating!
If you encounter any device crashing please tell me
Looks awesome bro, good work!

Thanks for sharing your setting.
Just a suggestion, but wouldn't it be easier to use Synapse and share the profile vs using two apps. Maybe you have your reasons so don't take this as anything other than me thinking out loud. :thumbup: :beer:

None taken! The reason I use these 2 apps are because Synapse is horrible! (My opinion) if you would perfery I can try to build my settings into that app for those who use it! Tomorrow I'll be releasing a new build of the files with much need tweaking.

Na man, no worries. Was more curious than anything. Synapse for me personally just has too many settings and for someone like me more ways to make a hot mess. Lol
I use kernel adiutor mainly because its baked into the rom and one less app I need to install.

I'm not 100%, but this should be what to do...
In the app Tools/Profile/hit the + tab/tic select all or ?/ and it creates the settings profile
This part I'm willing to test with you. In your file explorer app go to the root tab.
/data/data/com.grarak.kerneladiutor/files/profiles.json
This is the profile you created. I'm assuming if I placed your file in the same folders on my device I would see the profile you created.

What i did is i used a app called NOMone Resolution Changer to change the resolution to 1080p with the DPI to 320. Putting the resolution to 1080p helps in battery life and proformance!
I'm running CM12.1! Check out the JediROM! Its by the same dev that made the kernel! I don't use it but its still a great ROM! I prefer CM12.1 [I make the kernel settings]

Ah, yes. I've used that many times. Prefer to stay on 1440p due to the extra crispiness of the small text, but I have seen some small battery savings doing 1080p.
Thanks for your setup, I am playing around with it to tweak to my liking.
