Hey guys!
Just for a whim, I reverted back to GB just to note some differences between the ICS Sense 3.6 and GB Sense 3.0. I've noticed that under the power setting some options have been removed. First, under power there is an option to enable power efficiency, enable power saver (restrict power when battery is low), and enable sleep mode. Why would HTC have removed these in ICS? Does ICS have better power management?

Can anyone that knows explain the differences between the kernal that is installed with CM6, pershoot's kernal, and stock? I understand the former two allow 1113mhz but what other differences are there? Pros/cons?

The new kernel is also under volted from 1036mhz down. (around there I believe, or it uses adaptive power supplying below that mark) The power supplied when the CPU scales to 1113mhz is bumped up to max, (above stock voltage but still in design specifications) it needs full power for stability when running that high, and returns to normal when the CPU scales back down. If you keep the max CPU frequency below the point where the power is increased you can get better battery life. You must have setCPU to get anything other than stock speed and scaling settings. (though the UV'ing will be there without it)
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
This question is a bit kernel based. Is there any way to modify the default power saver in sense 5 to adjust the CPU power saver? I'm guessing this is kernel based because the Bulletproof Kernel by Flair has no issue with power saver and the Elemental kernel does.
What is the difference between the mid and max mode? If you look at their options shown, it appears the only difference is the resolution of the screen. However, no way that adds like 5 hours of time to your phone by switching that. To verify that's not the only difference, I tried customizing the mid power save mode and dropped the resolution down to HD+ just like the max power save mode. You know how much time that added? 3 minutes. So where are the extra HOURS of time coming from on the max power save mode? It has to be doing more than it shows...
it's "Maximum power saving mode".
CPU speed will be limited, almost applications will be sleep. Then, you will get a really phone.
in the settings menu the power saving and ultra power saving mode are disabled for some reason and their icons disappeared from the quick setting toggle
so any idea what caused that ????
You have activated high performance mode from developer options , it disables power saver and ultra power saver mode
