Governor problem - HTC Incredible S

Hi everyone, as i have been starting to fiddle around with governors i discovered that my setting won't stick and I'll have to reset them after rebooting, what could be the solution to it?
Also after researching it seem the better governor is smartassV2? Should i change any voltage or GHz for balanced performance and battery life?
Thanks all for helping out yet again:beer:

What app are you using to do this? Try trickstermod or daemon controller
And have a look at the guide linked in my signature, that might answer your questions about overclocking and undervolting
You'll have to look on a pc or on a browser on your phone

Ah right, knew I forget something. I am using vipervivo ROM with redux 0.7
The venom tweak is the one i used to change governors, and yes i did tick the setting to apply setting on boot.
Thanks mark I'll have a look at your post to decide on oc and UV

maybe u can try apps like trickstermod like mark said or SetCPU.
hope that help.

Never, ever, ****ing ever set your clock speed apps to set on boot.
Why? If you set up a frequency that your device cannot handle it will set these frequencies as soon as your phone hits the loading screen. You will not be able to boot your device as the clock settings will kick in immediately and freeze your system.

So basically wt it meant is u want to the settin keep g u set after every reboot..
If you dont check that option the settings will revert to default setting when u reboot

In case you are using setcpu then there is an option on main tab which u shud check..
It says keep the setting stable on boot..

Most roms running ics or greater have built in safety, so if the phone force closes set on boot will not apply. It is perfectly safe to set your governors and I/o on these roms. Check for info about current Rom you are running, if it has this feature go nuts and test the limits of your phone . Do your research peoples, can't stress that enough, find out what you can about your phone and current rom/radio/kernal and you won't hurt your phone. Fail to do so and risk bricking your device, its that simple.

Whatever you do don't use "power save"
Phone won't wake in that mode.

I just set it as 100-1200 interactive. Then set a profile when the screens off 100-600 conservative.
As long as the profile is set from 200mhz - (200-1200mhz) the phone won't shut off and you won't have to remove the battery I had this issue on my phone....

That's because you had it set on "ondemand" I had the same exact issue for a long time before I figured out that was the problem. It has something to do with the kernel doesn't support it right with setcpu or something. I read it somewhere on this forum. I've had it set at 100 min for the last 3-4 weeks and it's never not turned on (as long as it ISN'T set for ondemand).
I'll bump this thread to ask a question.
Around the time I installed SetCPU, I noticed a HUGE drop in battery life. To be honest, I'm not sure if SetCPU is the problem, or if I changed something else on the phone and that's the source of my problem. Anyone know anything that I could have changed unknowingly that caused my battery life to suck so hard.
Don't use set cpu if you can avoid it. Sre sets you to 1.2 ghz and unhelpful supplies a script if you are comfortable doing that.
Limiting speed with set cpu had little positive influence. As long as the scalling is working the cpu should idle with the screen off any how. The only situation I would change the clock is during an overheat condition but I'm running without set cpu all together.
If I'm interpreting unhelpful right the next kernel will make use of user space in set cpu and allow many new things including under voltage to save battery and the creation of custom clocks not written into the kernel so you aren't bound to his preferences.

Where can you do that at? Is that where you make your own cpu speeds?
Use NSTools in any ICS ROM with Icy Glitch kernel.

Help with kernel issues

Yesterday I unlocked my bootloader and installed alfs 07 ICS. I then installed firedroid. Problem is sometimes randomly half of the screen will like cut off and appear on the other side. This seems to get worse when I overclock though.
Anyway to fix this issue?
Thanks
It has to do with the governor. You should change it but I don't remember to which one to switch. I think it was on demand.

Over Clock on Glitch Kernel

Can someone tell me how to over clock with v14 B6 just where to set things at?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
There is an app called "pimp my cpu" (I believe it's in the market) that will allow you to easily overclock the Glitch kernel. Might want to give that whirl.

I got it but the interface is confusing I kinda wanna one click thing lol
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
I don't have it on my phone right now, but I believe all you have to do is open the app, pick a maximum cpu frequency (e.g. 1400 MHz) and long-click on it. It will pop up "set as max", and when you click that, it will put that as your max speed until you reboot.
If you want to go farther than that, you can create profiles that will load on startup, and tweak the undervoltage settings, but for a simple overclocking, you're actually in a good place with PMC.
The best one for glitch kernel is the nstools

You're supposed to use NStools for glitch. I can't really tell you what's best for your phone though

glitch kernel POST 1 tells you what to use. if you didnt read that, i dont expect that you searched and read the MANY guides on xda on how to overclock. so im not going to tell you.,

I got NStools as soon as I flashed the rom , just want more directions to do it, don't think I didn't read or look around, I'm not new to flashing but I'm new to overclocking, just wanted clarified directions on what to click in nstools, to lets say over clock to 1.2 ghz

Any TIPS for JB' PA 2.1 that really enhance Battery????

Okay guys I've had this PA JB 2.1 with hydrocore running. Now I've used hydro v1 and 4.3 and both my battery is not great at all. I've gone back to v3.5 as I was running this one the longest. I have nothing synced at all aand I mainly use wifi to browse watch videos etc. Nothing to heavy at all. My phone has fully charged and in batterystats it says my phone has been on for 20 mins and it went down to 88%! Now is this normal for some of you or is their really any tips that truly work as I love this rom....I've asked before but I just need if possible tips that have proven to work.
Thanks all.

You can change the Governer settings by using SetCpu and make your phone battery friendly.

Thanks for the link...its quite difficult to understand it all. I've got my gov as conservative and the Max freq set at 1000. I saw in the link that's recommended. I dont see friendly in CPU?

You have a tonns of info, how to fix the things.
Check the second link in my signature.
First rule - any "dirty" install can't be counted as an objective reason for complaint. But - submit your BBS dump, as stated in the thread's OP anyway.
i was previously using Hydracore V4.1 with PA JB 2.1 and it has a very good battery life. i am currently on Jellycore V2 with Hydracore 4.1 again as the newer versions of the Hydracore seems to drain more battery so i sticked with the 4.1 version.

Set it to lulzactive with noop scheduler and max freq to 1400...rest of the settings you can apply from the link given above. (For battery friendly)

Ive set everything as stated except that friendly bit as I cant find it. The info in those threads are not easy reads for me lol...so I'm not understanding but after an hour of using just wifi to browse the web I've gone down to 79%. Also does having a theme kill battery as I have a theme set?

[Q]How to enable only two cores? (CM ROM)

Hi all.
Dont know if this is a stupid request
I am on CyanogenMod based ROM and i want to save battery (maybe) disabling some cores of my O4X...
I read this

but not working on CM ROM so...
I ask you!
I read also this 2 threads but I dont know if they are only for htc one x

For CyanogenMod of course!

Hi, you could try with this nice app called Tegra Overclock. I've been using it for quite a long time now and I really like it. It's very simple and you can REALLY set how many CPUs you want online + there are also some other options for OCing etc.
Oh and btw, I just tried that app from the HTC One X thread that you pasted and unfortunately, it doesn't do the job. :/

No problem. I hope that It will help you with your battery life.
also cpu tuner and trickstermod do the job pretty well. If your aim is to save battery check cpu tuner out
But seems that trickster mod dont save those settings for me...
Multicore Power Saving
always set to 0
Max Active CPU core
always set to 1
No way to fix them (various rom and kernel tested).
AND
Seems that tegra overclock fired up my CPU (CPU never goes under 1000 Mhz but always on max)
my phone after few minutes reboots in bootlop cause the temperature reached !
I reinstalled the ROM!!
LOL experience!!:banghead:

You need to set up min/max cpu that way u wont be stuck on max cpu speed and overheat your phone.Tegraoverclock is fine but i am kinda used to SetCpu app.Download cpu spy from market and watch deep sleep that way you will know whats going on with cpu all the time.BetterBatteryStats are fine too.
