[Q] Xperia T battey drain problem help? - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

I had my xperia T for two weeks now and there is a major problem with my device its the batter I have major battery drain with my xperia T plz help me fix these problem and I haven't rooted it or unlocked.

Sorry for my bad English

i had you same issue... just root your XT and change to ondemand governor
no overheat, no thermal throttle, smoother, much more battery life..

I thought ondemand was a stock governor.
Correct me if wrong.

No, on demand is available from stock. There are a few governors actually.
Msm-dscv, on demand, userspace, powersave and performance.
Also a few I/O schedulers. Namely: noop, deadline and cfq.
Changing to on demand ready made the device smoother imo.

Thermal throttling is there, but less noticeable.
Did I help? Then please don't forget to press the thanks button.

I meant to type stock, not custom...d'oh...but that means there is no need to root to enable it.
The post i quoted said to root then enable on demand. If it is stock governoer there is no need to root.

[POLL] What's your favorite governor on Nova?

/Discuss
In previous ROMs for other devices I had good experience with smoothass/brazillianwax and savagedzen but ever since I tried MinMax it's the best one for me.
What do you guys think?
(I/O Sched is Simple by far, there's no chance to others like V(R) or BFQ)
ondemand...
Stock user have to use

The "governor" is that piece of software that switches the CPU of you phone between the different speeds and voltages, thus it is responsible to some performance issues and the power consumption of the battery.
Or in other words:
The "wrong" governor results in poor battery duration, while another "wrong" governor may result in great battery duration but poor performance. The "best" governor is the one that switches the CPU to exactly that speed that is really needed so the system can run with full performance and best battery duration.
As user of the stock ROM you do not have the choice as the kernel supports exactly one specific governor (named ondemand). If you want to try the differnt governors try the Nova ROM of Noejn: this great ROM allows you to switch between several different governors.

I only tried MinMax and ondemand. To make it short: ondemand sucks, MinMax works great for me.

Question regarding Devil Kernel...

Hi guys, the Devil Kernel has a governor called Powersave does that really help extend battery life?

Yea, it will, but it may be laggy and slow from time to time.

OnDemand, Conservative or SmartassV2 are a good compromise regarding speed and battery. Your battery will discharge a bit faster ofc but your phone will be smoother as well. Use CoolTool for live statistics of the CPU frequency.
Just play around a bit with the settings and use the link I posted above for help. If you want to know anything, feel free to ask me
There are several other settings on kernel side which affect speed and battery life.

Thank you so much!!! I'm gonna be honest and say I am a n00b and I won't really understand the statistics...or change the frequency manually...
Can I run SetCPU with all the kernels or just use the Kernel's governors (like Devil's let you choose a governor).
P.S - Tried the SmartassV2 looks okay to me a bit laggy though...

Yeah, SetCPU can be run with any kernel. You can download the devil kernel app on Google Play to set everything, so SetCPU is redundant.
Statistics are quite obvious - the phone should hit min. frequency as soon as possible on the one hand and it shouldn't lagg on the other hand Lazy governor is good as well.
Btw: You are here to learn something so it's absolutely okay if you ask questions. That "noob-excuse" is kinda lame cuz you read and study the stuff by asking others /reading topics Everyone has to learn to succeed.
Anyways, ask me if you got questions

It slows down a bit your phone but battery does improve.

depends on what you need. smartassV2 is a balance of performance and battety life. sio is stable, if i read correctly. i use either ondemand or interactive governor with vr scheduler since i don't use my x8 much nowadays.
@cascabel , alright thanks mate, im gonna stay with my current settings

afaik it's included in the kernel, and no module for stock. hopefully i'm wrong amd someone can point it out.
There is smartass module but it has some bugs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159899

pegasusq in my opinion is the better governor to use, largely because it can tell if is more than one core and respond accordingly. Pair that with CPU Sleeper Dual Core and you're golden as far as power saving awareness. SIO I hear is the best i/o scheduler to use for power consumption, deadline in my opinion is the best for pure performance however be careful because If you do overload and a process misses a deadline it will hiccup or even freeze. :laugh:

Battery life is also good on abyssplug, but I don't think there's a big difference between the two.

HUGE RENDERING, FPS and SMOOTHNESS improvement on OOS.

I don't know if it works on OOS versions but it does, on the OB12. You need to be rooted to be doing this.
Lower the input boost to 1036 on the big and 556 on the small first. Now, change the governor of the big cluster to conservative and the small to ondemand or conservative , benefit!
To see the improvement in FPS, you need to go to developer options and switch on profile GPU rendering. For those who didn't understand this: lower the graph is, higher the fps. Hit thanks if helped
Where to change these settings?
Any kernel manager would do. I'd recommend kernel aduitor

Just change the option of GPU GOVERNER to simple_on demand one from the above mentioned app. It will work smooth.. works for me..:good:?

I'd recommend to leave it on msm-adreno.
What if I'm on RR 5.8.2 and ElementalX? I have ondemand governor option for little but don't have conservative for big cluster.

This is exclusive for OOS. In fact, the interactive is supposed to be better than the rest but it's not the case on OOS which is why I made this thread.

Oh alright. Little governor ondemand seems quite fine right now.
By the way, are both governors interactive by default?

Has to be. Unless you use blu_spark kernel. It uses blu_activ.

I do recommend you guys taking a look at AKT.. There are alot of peformance oriented and balanced profiles that are already better with smoothness then stock.. Also Franco has some magic with stock settings!

Same, cant find where to change the input values for those two.

You'll see input boost in the bottom section of CPU in kernel adiutor. Core 1- 1036, core 3 -556 is what you've to do. It'll be 1324 default on both. I'm suggesting that for slightly better battery life

Lower SOTs are obvious, but to what degree is what matters. As far as I see, it's not that much.
GUYS, I recommend not to use this anymore. Oneplus has a reason to not release the kernel with conservative on . This is because conservative is not optimized for battery while interactive is. If interactive weren't optimized for battery, it'd be better than conservative for sure. I get only 4 hr sot on conservative but 5.5 on interactive. Though this is not placebo, it has a negative impact on SOT .
When I change big cluster to conservative, those cores will always stay above 2 GHz, as shown in Kernel Adiutor.

The thread is about more performance and you're discussing battery life....of course it will have a lower battery life, the question is are you happy when your quad-core phone stutters....

Good you realised that.. I did a little investigation on your tweak.. Apparently setting governor to conservative locks the frequency of big cluster to max possible, usually above 2 ghz and it will step down slowly ( by slow I mean really slow like 1-2 seconds). Thus causes you to have very less render times on gpu profile as shown in the xda portal post.. I opened up ex kernel manager and observed same freq in higher range.
After some time I just changed governor to interactive and changed minimum freq of big cluster to 2 ghz.. I observed the same render times as situation as time when conservative was set as governor...
So this tweak is nothing but type of placebo since ramping up freq can lead to faster processing
Edit.: Couple of people on xda portal have said the same.. I didn't check it..
