Hi, just wanted to know which scaling setting you Note users are using
I'm trying conservative right now, should be nice for battery life.
On demand + battery saving during screen off

Hi all.
I notice some strange things about the Android OS battery drain bug.
I use SetCPU to DC my phone at low battery level and change the CPU Governors.
I'm on Darkys 10.1 whith Darkcore 2.4.
And i just notice that i had the Android OS bug.
When i use SetCpu to see the CPU usage i see that it never go below 400, while i was in conservative governor.
When i set to "on demand" it goes back to normal and reach 100mhz.
It comes back to 400 mini if i turn back to conservative.
So, coult the the Android OS battery drain be caused by a bad coding of conservative governor.
Should we avoid to use this governor?
Thx
Hi there,
I'd like to overclock my IncS to 1,3 Ghz...
But I don't know the right settings.
Can you please tell me the right setting for best performance (e.g. oc to 1,3ghz) and best battery life?
thanks
does anybody know?
Set max to your desired, min to the lowest it will go and scaling to smartass.
I'm OCd to over 1.4 and no issues... UCd to 192 with smartassv2 governor
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA App
the best performance I have experienced in my INC is when I put oc / uv beater to the following:
wake gov: ondemand
wake mins: 245000
wake max: 1228800
Sleep gov: Conservative
my sleep: 245000
Sleep max: 691200
when I take a test in antutu nenchmark for I the following result.
score: 2729
If I clocked lower or higher, the result is lower
Overclocking depends entirely on your chip.
You should use whatever governor suits your needs.
I personally use ondemandx which speeds up on demand (as the name implies), conservative tries to keep the frequency as low as possible, interactive uses max frequency if min isn't enough, smartass is an improvement of interactive that keeps performance high while improving battery life (meaning there's little reason to use interactive).
You can find it in more detail here.
So basically, smartass if you want performance, conservative if you want battery life, ondemand if you want something in between. In reality though, I don't think you'll see much difference between them and I've seen no difference in idle power draws, so if you don't use your phone all that much, they won't be that different.
Once you've picked a governor, you should set min speed to 122000 (no reason to use any higher) and max to whatever you want. Your phone will probably crash or suffer from bad performance if you go over 1.5 GHz, but it varies a lot. Might happen even earlier.
Once you've found your desired performance level, you should start tweaking your voltages. You can do that under the UV profile. In there, you can adjust voltages at different speeds and the phone will automatically use them at whatever speed it's at. You should undervolt to increase battery life, so start by reducing all by 25 or 50 and then temp apply. Use it like that for a couple of hours and if it doesn't freeze, you're probably stable. You can either stop here or spend many hours tweaking it further, but that'll take many hours to get right.
This is my setting

Which would be the best O/C program out there ?! I have SetCPU, Daemon but I'm sure there is better in the market...... just need to know the name so I can get it Thanks!
I'm currently 230MIN/1150MAX

In my opinion, and I'm sure many others', Virtuous daemon is the best by far.
It comes standard in a lot of roms, and using the OC/UV beater

it would have the best performance. I've set mine similar to yours and with this method, you can set the phone to underclock when battery reaches a low level
Hey guys. Just wondering which governor works the best for you guys. Want to find the perfect compromise between battery life and no lag while scrolling.
i find that snartassv2 works best for me

Lagfree using Abyss 2.6 does what it says, very smooth desktop scrolling in ADW EX, even at stock 1.4GHz.
Battery life seems ok, and heat is about the same as On Demand.
For SetCPU
- Use Ondemand, that will give performance when CPU need it
and In profile add power saver (200 min 500 max), when screen off. if compromise any SW then max 800
What is the necessity to set this profile if the phone goes into deep sleep? Many times we don't need apps working in the background...
For instance I disabled all the background activities of apps requesting data (autosync...) and I am always in deep sleep with screen off...
My 2 cents.
Cheers.
I see guys. Been bouncing back and forth between intellidemand, smartass v2 and lagfree. Lagfree seems to consume more batteries though
abyssPlug
Sorry to bring this thread back to life but I was wondering what everyone thought the optimal settings for CPU speeds would be.
Galaxy Note GT-7000
CheckROM
Abyss Kernel
On Demand governer
I have them set right now for min 200 and max 1500. I had the set at min 50 and max 1600 but the min 50 made the phone a little laggy.
Another question, what should I set the temp profile to temp wise?
Thanks in advance
right now im running ondemand....min 200 max 1664
abyss kerenl... stock rom....
seems fine to me....
Ever since I flashed the 213 leak, battery life has been a bit disappointing. To help things along, I downloaded SetCPU (haven't used it since my good ole OG Droid) and let it autodetect settings. To my surprise the governor was set to 'interactive' instead of hotplug like it was on stock GB.
My understanding is that hotplug allows the phone to disable unneeded cores during periods of low utilization, while interactive does not (although both cores can be disabled when the phone is sleeping). Do you think switching to hotplug from interactive will improve battery life?
My battery life is much better since switching, but I also disabled 4G (on WiFi most of the time) and added screen off and low battery profiles (600mhz and 800mhz max respectively) which muddy the waters a bit. I thought I would mention it on here for those of you who feel the same, it might be an easy way to improve battery life on the leak.
That's interesting. I've been using the .213 leak and my battery life has been quite good. I haven't noticed any particular drop in battery life, and I keep 4G on all the time. If I don't use my phone much, it's not uncommon for me to have 60% left at the end of the day.
Do you use anything like SetCPU? I am wondering whether I can confirm that the default governor of the leak does not shut off one of the CPUs when it is idle. If nobody can confirm I'll get around to checking it myself this weekend :laugh:
Sorry, I haven't messed with my cpu settings.
Hi,
Brand new One and HTC user and loving it! I've been trying out the power saver function to help a charge last longer (which I would say so far definitely helps). When it says "conserve CPU usage" has anyone been able to monitor the clock or core activity with this turned on? I'd be interested to see what the trade off actually is...
Sorry I don't know how to access this info yet.
When "Power Saver" is enabled, benchmark apps (like Quadrant Standard) would report the CPU as running at 1134 MHz with 4 cores. Disable power saver & CPU returns to 1728 MHz.

Ah ok, that makes sense then given that I don't notice a huge drop in performance unless I ask it to do something serious. But the battery savings are awesome.
Thanks very much!
