1GHZ bug in stock ROM? - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The last days my girlfriend is complaining about battery drain in her i8190. I installed No-Frills CPU and it seems that the min CPU frequency is stuck at 1GHZ. Applying the 200MHz setting does nothing, when i restart the app i see that the min freq is 1ghz again. The phone is with stock rooted firmware (XXAMJ3).
Any ideas about this really annoying problem?

Tell your girlfriend, she should reboot her phone with Wi-FI OFF. This will solve the problem

Did you or your girlfriend change the CPU governor to performance? No-frills CPU control can change the CPU governor. Try it out
Or
Set the phone in airplane mode and reboot the phone if it still didn't work then please attach/send some screenshots from the battery statistics in settings > battery in this thread.
P.S : Download "CPU spy" from play store and check if only 1GHz is in use.

She hasn't change the cpu governor (was with ondemand). The trick with airplane mode didn't work either!
These are two screens from no frills and cpuz where you can see the problem. I checked yesterday the real battery performance, it didn't seem that bad. Was 100% to 35% in about 9 hours with 2 hours screen on time. But isn't that strange, the min freq bug?

that is an unnormal behaviour. I think it is app-related.
try THIS to see which apkĀ“s wake your phone up.

I installed wakelock detector but i don't see something strange.
Really frustrating, i can't find any solution!

noLED 107x (a playing tool in my opinion)
Handcent 104x (stoneage)
... many wakelocks
btw who uses sms in this time ?
use threema and greenify noLED
m.

if you still have problem try to change govenor and i/o schedular then switch wifi off then reboot.

Unwanted power off

Hi guys i have a problem,if i leave my NOTE unused for a while,he is going power off
Why that?
Did you use SetCPU to change voltages? Is your battery charged? Does it happen with the phone connected to AC?
Use Voltage Control or SetCPU to set your Governor to Ondemand.

Il give a try.
Thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!!
Does it happen with the phone connected to AC?
No,my battery was fully charged.
My wife's Gnote does this too. Would love some more suggestions, or it's gonna have to be replaced.
The solution was the (GOVERNOR), when i change it from (LAGFREE) 2 (ONDEMAND) as our friend metus666 says the problem find his solution
Thanks guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Thread can close now.

So I can have any voltage i want for it frequency, just need to chose governor?
Because i have had the same problem, i have touched in the voltages (underclock) and the phone some times work other complete shut down, real bad.

Lazy second core??

Hey guys i have a problem kinda with my xperia sp.... The second core is always offline even when the cpu governor is set to performance.... Why is that???
I run stock rom 2.254 stock kernel and i am rooted.
The offline info came from the app trickster mod

The phone will only use the second processor when it can't manage the tasks with just the first core( I saw the online/offline with system monitor ). Only uses 2nd core when neccesary, so it's not a lazy core

Thanks for your answer but if the gorvernor is set to performance shouldn't be the second core running ?

No, it'll get the core online when needed. If you force both cores to be online constantly your battery will drain within hours.. Massive battery drain because of a core you don't use at all, but still is online

[Q] Havy Battery Drain on [ROM][4.4.2] CyanogenMod 11.0 20140315 [DAILY] [FULLY WORKI

HI I am having heavy battery drain
running version from 15/03/2014
I had a maybe 3 minute phone call but still the phone app has eaten up 37% followed by 31% android system
total 72% left after 1h36min
This is a new behavior, up to last week it all worked smooth.
the CPU governor in nofrills CPU is now set to performance since on demand or power saving make the phone very sluggish
Also Video app is not working, just crashes same result in Focal
Any ideas or tips?
Thanks Merlin
You do realize the performance CPU governor makes the CPU constantly run at 1 GHz? This will of course drain your battery.

It's maybe the 1GHz bug. The 1 GHz bug cause the heavy battery drain. Try this, turn off wifi and reboot.
its 1ghz bug if you are using ondemand. but i hope you know performance governor keeps cpu freq. at 1000mhz.
im using abbysplug/sio governor. and my battery lasts for 18 hours.(wifi or mobile data on. sms Messaging. whatsapp. facebook games rarely)

abbyssplug change the processor performance. You can find it in Settings > performance > processor > CPU governor
go tp settings>about phone and press repeatly to build number. you will see "you are a Developer now" text. go back. performance menu must be appear. you can set it there cpu governor.

A fellow user thankfully redirected me to this thread and told me about this governor setting you mentioned above and i must ask you some questions if you dont mind of course
1- What's the difference between Abbysplug and Powersave governor? I have my phone underclocked at 200 at all times and the sluggish speed never seemed to bother me much, so is there a difference between these 2 governors when it's at 200 all the time?
2- Have uninstalled/frozen/disabled any system or built in apps?
3- You leave the mobile data on for 18 and the battery lasts????
Please give me your exact settings, man; i'm desperate. :crying:

LG P990 battery drain when the overclock to 1.4GHz

LG P990 battery drain when the overclock to 1.4GHz.
I think the kernel I used support overclock to 1.4GHz. But it happens that battery drain so serious that I cannot even charge the phone?
I am using LG android 4.1 rom. Anyone faced similar problem and know how to solve? thanks
Its known that higher OC = higher drain. But the drain shouldnt be so much massive.. Try to check with BBS what OS using your battery..
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app
thx for suggestion, I am now using BBS to check battery state.
But the most weird thing is that, if i stick to no overclock, the battery life has no problem.
BBS result: I found that if i overclock, the mobile cannot deep sleep. Or in fact, if I overclock to 1.3GHz, set as interactive mode. The CPU keeps at 1.3GHz for most time.
So that's your problem.
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=75
Use trickster mod app and set min/high frequencies and on governor control setting choose on over which load your cpu will go on high/max frequencies....

I guess i find the problem.
The media server is draining the battery.
As far as I did not listen to music, it is ok.
But if I use EsExploer or playerpro to play a music for an hour. The BetterBatteryState showed that the CPU freq keeps at 1GHz for an hour.
What can I do to solve the problem? I googled a lot, including "repair" all music on sdcard, etc, many so called solutions did not solve the problem. thanks

[Q] CPU adjust Problem

Hi guys!
I'm on iHackers 4.1 using doomkernel v21... I'm really suffering from battery drain these days...
I noticed that the core 0 is only on maximum frequency (2419Mhz) and core 2 jumps to 1728Mhz and down to stopped.
this problem end only when the governor is Powersave ( cant stay on this governor because its so laggy ).
i used too many different governors and I/Os...
the problem still stands.
what to do ?
Did you install any kernel tweak app and active some option? Try factory reset or fresh install rom.
