Download SetCPU, CPU Master or any similar App out of Play Store. But don't use No Frills, it's not fully compatible with the i.

just now i asked the same and was recomended rom toolbox and its very good lots of other options too.

To quote myself, from my infiniROM thread:
arman68 said:
To switch to smartassV2 with sio, you can install this zip from recovery: View attachment 1872551 (if you want to experiment with other governors and schedulers, you can edit the init.d script inside the zip). The following zip will allow you to revert back to the default from recovery, in case things go horribly wrong: View attachment 1872552

The above solution is good if you want to set a permanent setting, or if you do not mind rebooting your phone whenever you change cpu governor and io scheduler. If you want to experiment without rebooting though, I highly recommend the free Voltage Control app; once you do not need it anymore, freeze or uninstall it, and use the init.d script instead.

Balanced is best of both I use balanced 3

Or maybe you could try the different options and make your own conclusion.
In my case, my best result was balanced 3, but it depends on how you use it.

[Q] Noobish - CPU doesnt want to be controlled

Hi. I'm new to here.
I have rooted my Gnote, and i dont know wether it is a full root or what.
For maximizing my battery, i underclocked my Gnote by setting max CPU freq to 800 MHz or 1 GHz using SetCPU.
But.. according to the CPU history using No-Frills app, it written there it is still clocked to 1400 Mhz and 1200 MHz sometimes.
Is this a rom problem? Or kernel ?
Btw i'm using stock and SpeedMod k3-3 kernel.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2
sometimes setcpu seems to not wanna start after a reboot so I really recommend you start the app and see everything is well in the app and see from there that your cpu frequency does not exceed the selected value. Otherwise I recommend using voltage control. I'm using it on speed mod and all is good for me.
Cheers.

Open super user and double check that its been granted permission. If so open your file manager and make sure you can access the data folder in root and set rw priveledges, make sure you have full root.

oops! sorry I didn't read carefully..you are on stock kernel..
GingerDX Overclock Module (x8oc.ko v004) give in the gdx thread should work for you..
I think you can't change the frequency of cpu
Sorry I don't know much about stock kernel
I think you should ask this question on GDx thread
1. Download DX's x8oc.ko (search for it)
2. Push the module in /system/lib/modules
3. Edit hw_config and add the following lines: insmod /system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko # x8oc.ko
4. Download a cpu manager app (i use setcpu)
5. Reboot.
Now run your cpu manager app, grant it root, and set you oc settings.

You can try. But DON'T tick "set on boot" immediately check if it's stable first. My phone crashes above 800 tho. But if yours doesn't then it's your choice.

just use freq 720+ and 800- below

just dl the x8oc.ko module and push it to /system/lib/modules. then add "insmod /system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko" in hw_config and reboot.

try root explorer. there are some free apps on the market that would let you do that. the zip didn't work for me either. had to use that method to enable oc.

Gotcha. Ok did you set permissions on the ko files and put the init script in init.d folder and reboot? There is also the possibility that there has been a kernel change to .232 Which I'm using in the area of the cpu driver. Just make sure you did the steps above and go from there.

You also try to manually insmod the modules using terminal.
Obviously don't use the quotations.
Type "su" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_interactiveX.ko" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_hotplugX.ko" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_smartass2.ko" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_pegasusq.ko" enter
"insmod /system/lib/modules/sio-iosched.ko" enter
48656C70206D6521
After a ton of noodling, I got it to work. I switched from .230 to .232 and it still did not work. So I tried 2 more things: 1) I used script manager to run at boot and use superuser, then 2) changed permission of the 90modules file to r-x-r-x-r-x, and rebooted. Fully working now.

Great! Thats so good to hear you got it working. Its nice having all the options. If there is something I can put in the op to make things easier for ppl then post it on rootz and I will make the change.

[DEV]CM10 TweakPack

Hi.
This package adds Touch Boost and a multi-processor optimized zram to your CM10 Nightly. Maybe incompatible with older Nightlies or newer. (Currently running my own build - Should be identical with the Nightly from 09.11).
I flagged this stuff as DEV because it may leads to incompatible behaviour and maybe increase battery drain.
Please report (if it helps etc)
Download
cool, gonna try it
Thank u sir ! Does it helps with ril problems ?
Inviato dal mio LG-P990 con Tapatalk 2
Hi Benee ,
This is a good start for CM10 modifications.
I am currently trying to get iwconfig to work with Wifi TX power app.
Have you plans on compiling additional governors such as smartassv2 or lagfree for the O2X? Would be great as we now have the possibility to use governors...

Nope. I'm not a fan of these voodoo magic governors. Most are ****ty, and bloated und just increase CPU overhead. Better save some cycles and use a simple one like ondemand.
I would suggest that you use interactive or ondemand. Both have Touch Boost support. Which really helps imho.
first of all thanks for sharing.
i'm using this with 26% of zRAM and interactive as cpu governor.
i don't see any particular difference for now, i will report better tomorrow after some daily use
can you add different i/o scheduler to this pack? like simple i/o, bfq, cfq, just to see if we can increase i/o speed.
EDIT: WiFi not working anymore It can't be enabled on 08/11 build.
After flashing the tweak pack my WiFi wont come on again.
I saw you put a wireless.ko inside the zip. Maybe something is wrong with it?
PS: I miss the conservative governor from stock CM10 already
Edit: I am also on nightly 1107

Same but i'm on the 1108 build how to uninstall this tweak pack?
can someone please make a tweak pack which can un-restrict the RIL installation? in such case we can test nightlies with various bb and ril combinations and find our own solutions for many many reports of voice call issues.
How can we use getril working or manually place ril file in appropriate place?

To zram - DON'T touch the cm option. A script is included. To i/o scheduler. BFQ/CFQ are to complex imo. Noop is too simple. Deadline is the perfect mix (It's tweaked for flash storages). It's pretty cheap (cpu cycle) etc. So nope - not gona happen. However I think some other dev will start adding those stuff soon.

Could you please read the op? I'm doing this on a custom build: It's equivalent to the CM build tomorrow. So problems will occur This is why it's flagged as DEV. Currently there are big changes on daily basis. Not gona update this often, but on my Github you can find the source and add it to your own builds.
