[Q] OverClock -Governor- Antutu CPU Master

HELLO AND SALAM SATU MALAYSIA
Since i was newbie about android,
i try to overclock my Xperia X8.
so i went to market and i found Antutu CPU Master.
the problem is i found something that i never heard before.::::::
"GOVERNOR"
could someone told me..what is governor actually...
and what different better the governor module?
i only found about smartass..the other module..i didnt find in xda forum.
i hope someone could help me here..before i accidentally brick my phone.

Cpu governor is control the Cpu freq.
- The OnDemand governor is the default option used by Android. It scales the CPU speed between the minimum and maximum speeds depending on CPU load. If the system needs more speed, the kernel will rapidly scale up the CPU speed.
- The Conservative sets the CPU speed in a similar way to the Ondemand governor, but scales the CPU up much less rapidly. This would theoretically save battery power, but may lead to less responsiveness.
- The Userspace governor is currently useless. It’s another way for applications to set the CPU speed that setCPU does not use.
- The Performance governor always keeps the CPU at the maximum set frequency.
Additionally, he makes reference to another option, which is not currently part of the setCPU app, so I am assuming that this is one that was removed in later versions.
- The Powersave governor always keeps the CPU at the minimum set frequency.
- Except for “Userspace,” no matter which governor you set, the CPU will always stay within the bounds of the maximum and minimum speeds you set in setCPU.

I'm not using any app. I overclocked in my system (alfs+GDX). My governor is OnDemand. Min 129mhz - max 748 mhz.

Offcourse you can install alfs but you should unlock your bootloader...

i already make it,...
thanks a lot.
last question...what version u have?
it is ok to use alfs kernel with different roms,not GDX?

I have vesion 5. You can use alfs with other roms but maybe wifi won't work or vibration....

i use alf kernel version 3..
so far,i didnt find any bug.
wifi n vib work very well with my linuxperia arch v1 rom.
i use antutu benchmark..i get 1881..
superb ..thanks a lot.

1881 good. Do you like LinuXperia v1 ? Come soon LinuXperia Esca Arch 3 ( overclock, bravia hack, xloud, dsp manager vs )

[Q] Best Governor/IO Scheduler/Voltage for best battery?

I'm currently on Zeus v7.01 with dianaV2.3+ kernel and I'm wondering what is the best combination of Governor/IO Scheduler/Voltage to obtain the most best battery life.
I'm not searching for best performance honestly, but instead a longer lasting phone. lol
I rarely play games, and smoothness is not a must for me (Nemus Launcher does the job, smoothest launcher ever!)
My current settings are:
CPU Frequency Tweaks
Max freq: 1000
Min freq: 100
DVFS enabled on boot
Voltage Tweak: -5
Governor: ondemandX
Io Scheduler: sio (Simple I/O)

You could try undervolting your phone,because i like performance and smoothness,my setup is like that:
Max CPU frequency:1300Mhz
Min CPU frequency:300Mhz
Governor:Smartassv2
I/O scheduler:deadline.
Sorry for useless stuff,but i like to share
My main agenda is to help, not gain thanks.

No no it's nice to share your experience!!
Might help others..
Hmm my phone is already UV... -5, if i decrease further wouldn't it be too low to cause instability?
And about IO Scheduler, i don't quite fully understand it.. which one drain least battery?

i am using 100-800 smartass2 sio and -7V without any problems.

[Q] CPU and GPU profiles app/tweak??

I think I'm in the right forum for this question. I have a htc one myself. Sorry if the language is a bit bad. i'm studying english!
Hi, I came to think of CPU and GPU profiles for The ONE. If there would be a kind of app or tweak that can change the "governor" and "frequencies" of apps you select.
It would help with battery savings. Someone who knows?

If you're rooted, then SetCPU can be used to set CPU profiles. You can set what settings, governers and schedulers your kernel will change to for each and every app that launches if you want

Tasker is a wholly different thing as it can control almost everything about the phone not just the CPU profiles. Since you're only needing CPU profiles, SetCPU has a much cleaner UI and easier to set profiles for games you want performance on

[Q] Best CPU Governor and I/O Scheduler for One Power Guard

Hi,
I'm using Co-Core 8.2 and I want to test One Power Guard to improve my battery life.
But I don't have any idea about which CPU governor and I/O scheduler to choose.
Could someone tell me which combination provides the best balance between power-save and performance?
I'm on Jelly Bean 4.1.2
NB. Cocafe recommends PegasusQ as CPU governor and either SIO/ROW for I/O scheduler but I would like to get some feedback from people already using One Power Guard.
Thanks in advance

Pegasus and sioplus
OR
Hotplug and sioplus

Thanks for the answer. I will give a try with Pegasus
However I noticed that sioplus is not available on One Power Guard settings. Only row and sio.
Is sioplus available in Co-core 8.2?

These apps like this just drains your battery. If you want play with CPU, download a CPU controller app. (like SetCPU) and install CoCore 9.0 which is newest version.
When you don't use phone ; 600 MHz Max & HotPlug
When you don't use phone V2 ; 600 MHz Max & Ondemand & deeper sleep status
When you lock phone, don't decrease speed (too much) because it will use whole CPU if it needs ; 800 MHz Max & Ondemand Q/Lulzactive Q/Pegasus Q
When using ; 1000 MHz Max & Ondemand/Interactive/Lulzactive Q/Pegasus Q
When you get mad and crazy about performance, lock the min to max; 1000 MHz min and max & Ondemand & SmartAss (still exists or not I don't know)
If you increase minimum speed it will keep it. So I suggest always keep min to 200MHz. (if exists 0 MHz I don't remember it too)
Edit: and don't go deeper sleep if you use hot plugger governors like Hotplug, Pegasus, Lulzactive Q

Thanks guys,
I will compare the battery draining with One Power Guard just to give it a try.
If I don't notice any improvement then I will tweak with SetCPU

Hi again,
What exactly do you mean wit "deeper sleep"?
Is that an option or when the display is off after several minutes?
Sorry for my ignorance

Go to the CoCore's thread you'll see. It's deep sleep level which can increase your battery life when you don't use the device. It's not about using, it's about when it's stand-by.

Ok
After one day even if One Power Guard is a nice app I prefer to switch governor depending on the display status. So I was thinking about using tasker (instead setCPU) which is already running on my phone and this way not adding more background processes.
I set a couple of task using the CPU control from tasker. It is working fine switching governors but I noticed that the frequencies (min and max) don't change. I tried even with shell script and still I don't get to set the max frequency. Then I prefer to make you a couple of questiosn:
-In tasker when using the CPU control. If I change governor. Should it be set in both CPUs (0 and 1) or only in a single one? In my case i set the governor in both.
-I use the terminal to check the current governor and max frequency (for instance for the cpu0)
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor​cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq​
As said above the governor is succesfully changed but that's not the case for the frequency. Then I tried to run a shell script to change the max frequency as follows:
echo #frequency > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq​
But it seems not working neither. So I wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
NB. By the way I'm happy using the governor hotplug while not using my phone (thanks for the advice). In normal use I set pegasusq with sio and seems working great.

[Q] Is there any way to change cpu governor of note 5?

I know that default cpu governor of note 5 is "Interactive". It gives snappy performance but high battery drain.
The most thing I care about always is the battery drain so I want to change the cpu governor of note 5.
I had already rooted my note 5 and I am looking for some possible way to change the cpu governor of note 5.
Anyone has ideas?
Thank you!

I just tried to use "Kernel Tasker.apk " to find out what I can tweak for the kernel.
Only "userspace, Interactive, Performance" these three cpu governors I can choose......

if u really want to tweak governor, frequency and other stuffs like this.. Try skyhigh kernel by upintheair.. It gives u access to all these settings..
