Share your benchmark rank here. And which rom,kennel, any mod/twick do u prefer use for the most perform & battery life?
Mine: benchmack 12562, i am using slimkat+F kennel + L speed. Its fast,smooth and good battery life for me
Sorry for my bad English
I have something about 1150 with quite good performance, but battery drain too fast. However, I could be problem that it was keept for a long time fully discharged
What mHz can you use without reboots?
I set at 1100 with i/o noob
How could you call me like that...?
On 1150, CM12.1, F-kernel and L-speed Ive got 1270 points. Before I used Fly-on mod, but L-speed seems to be better.
Ive try out Fly-on mod, L-speed & Skynet. For me, L-speed is the best. In Novathor, i set deepest sleep state is state 4, so battery isnt too much. And i always disabled KSM, it may cause battery drain. My benchmark points is between 12k - 12k5
Och, there is a new version of F-kernel - 1.6 and dev said that novathor doesn't work propertly so you have to do it manually. In /sys/... folder you can change deepsleep state.

I have been using setiron's reoriented kernel for awhile now with the Voltage control app set at -75mV for 100, 200, & 400mhz and -50mV for all other frequencies. I am not having any stability issues and the voltages are sticking after reboot. However, I was expecting a pretty significant increase in battery life due to the undervolting and I have seen next to nothing. Battery life is not bad by any means but in real world use is pretty comparable to what I was getting at stock voltage.
people seem to be reporting really big increases in battery life, so I'm a little confused. have I not UV'd by enough? if that were the case I would expect to see at least some battery improvement.
I wiped battery stats/recalibrated the battery when I flashed. I do have BLN enabled, but my understanding is that this causes a really small amount of battery drain. any thoughts?
How much % of battery you loose after night|?
while idle with the screen off (background data enabled) I lose about 1-2% per hour. I lost 10% overnight most recently and I was asleep for 7 hours. that is about the same that I was getting at stock voltage.
all i can sya, is thst you losing not many %

If you are in a weaker signal area, then the cell phone radio is going to work just as hard no matter what the CPU voltage.

Battery drain can be a symptom of i9000 kernel and captivate modem.
Changing the modem and keeping 850mhz is a multi step process. I tried the kernel you are talking about but it's over rated.
if you want battery life flash a 2.1 rom and use unhelpful's kernel, 1.4.1 was the most stable on my phone but it doesn't have voodoo. 1.6 has voodoo and 1.7 has voodoo and clockwork recovery if I remember right. But I had random restarts, others did not report the same problems so who knows.
I would wait for captivate froyo source to drop. I'm getting decent life with cognition and no undervolting.
Edit after reading the whole thread your battery life seems normal, I don't see any problem, you can try more undervolt but test the phone completely. Make sure it doesn't freeze randomly, or on shutdown. Also test it with the charger plugged in, extra heat from the battery charging can affect stability.

Ok, I am a noob when it comes to OC/UV, i have searched and found this and this but i still have some doubts about undervolting, so IS UNDERVOLTING HARMFUL N SHOULD IT BE USED FOR EVERYDAY USAGE TO GAIN BETTER BATTERY BACKUP??
I am using jetpack 2.1 rom with talon 1ghz kernel (I dont use OC as its harmful) n i have set the values under voltage control app in each clockspeed - 100mV n tested thru stabilitytest app n neocore app, battery is performing considerably better but should i use it under everyday circumstances??
Sorry if I am repeating another question (I really have searched to my best efforts), just wanted to confirm coz i only have 1 phone n i am not very rich
No reason why not, I do, and there is no harm to be done unless you uv too much and get into a deep sleep situation but a re flash will sort that at very worst, but as you have stable values that work, then stay as you are and enjoy better battery

Ever since I flashed the 213 leak, battery life has been a bit disappointing. To help things along, I downloaded SetCPU (haven't used it since my good ole OG Droid) and let it autodetect settings. To my surprise the governor was set to 'interactive' instead of hotplug like it was on stock GB.
My understanding is that hotplug allows the phone to disable unneeded cores during periods of low utilization, while interactive does not (although both cores can be disabled when the phone is sleeping). Do you think switching to hotplug from interactive will improve battery life?
My battery life is much better since switching, but I also disabled 4G (on WiFi most of the time) and added screen off and low battery profiles (600mhz and 800mhz max respectively) which muddy the waters a bit. I thought I would mention it on here for those of you who feel the same, it might be an easy way to improve battery life on the leak.
That's interesting. I've been using the .213 leak and my battery life has been quite good. I haven't noticed any particular drop in battery life, and I keep 4G on all the time. If I don't use my phone much, it's not uncommon for me to have 60% left at the end of the day.
Do you use anything like SetCPU? I am wondering whether I can confirm that the default governor of the leak does not shut off one of the CPUs when it is idle. If nobody can confirm I'll get around to checking it myself this weekend :laugh:
Sorry, I haven't messed with my cpu settings.
im just wondering how much does the governerr effect battary life? i changed from ondemand to smartass2 and im not sure i see any diffrent...
and im scheduales which one is best for multitasking and which is for when playing games?
and should i change the governerr setting?
i also read that sleep_ideal_frequency should be 200 and not 100 beacuse 100 wastes more or something like that, is that true?

I use Performance governor all the time for 3 months now, battery life is same as on demand, smartass v2 or any other governor, except my phone lags much rarely than on any other govenor. For those that dont know, CPU of PC, your phone, calculator or anything else always works at 100% of its frequency even it has no work to do (Let's take for example your PC, even cpu usage is 5%, CPU still works at full frequency, the same works for your phone), so to me there is no point of any other governor except for Performance. If you have problem with battery life, it's mostly your screen. When I drain out my battery, my battery mostly get drained by screen (70-90%), I use about 0-30% of brightness always. Screen of 60-100% brightness will probably drain your phone's battery in 2-3 hours.

This is so wrong its a pain to read.:banghead: Why do we have the max and min frequency options in the semaphore app? Why do we have "Max Performance" and "Max Battery" power settings on laptops?

There was a thread some while ago that concluded in OnDemand and Performance being to two to give longest battery life and best performance.
I don't have specifics or even a link, but the thread was about schedulers and governors and which went together for best performance and battery life. I'm sure it's google'able

i found that thread but im just wondering how much battary life is wasted if i prefer preformence?
lets say i use smarassv2 since its faster will my phone drain lets say insted 20%\hour - 22%\hour? or is it more then that?

maybe you can try and tell us
There should be a significant impact regarding battery life when using Performance for example. But it also depends on what you are used to. If you play games all the time or do heavy tasks, the governor will kick the CPU to 100% all the time anyway. But if you mostly surf on the Internet or read texts there's no need to let the CPU go rampage.
Oh and Btw: Modern CPUs in notebooks or computers in general clock themselves down as well when they're idle.

I'm totally a rookie for modify the kernel, but i wish to get better battery life for my nexus 6. So i read often that changing the CPU Maximal/Minimum Frequency - for example for the franco.kernel or Lean Kernel or other kernel - almost everybody get a better battery life and no wake locks. At the moment i use the nexus 6 stock with no custom software, but the battery life isn't very good.
My questions now: How can i setting the right CPU Maximal/Minimum Frequency for the franco.kernel or Lean Kernel or other Custom Kernel? Are there specific apps? And the most important question: Which are the right numbers to set for the CPU Frequency?
Thanks. :good:

first off, questions go into the q&a/help threads, not general. and there are many cpu control apps to use, some free, some paid. thats the way for you to setup your cpu anyways you feel like. and there is no such thing as the right numbers, you need to find the right numbets for your use. me, i overclock to 3033mhz, and still see 5.5-6.5 hours of sot.
Thank you!
You shouldn't necessarily change the minimum and maximum frequencies because they won't necessarily save you battery.
When you look at the mex frequency of 2650 MHz, that's how many clock cycles there are per second. 2,650,000.
Every task you do on your phone will complete within an amount of clock cycles. Let's make some things up to illustrate this. Let's pretend that it takes Facebook app 5,000, 000 clock cycles to open. That means it would take nearly 2 seconds. If you set your Mac CPU frequency to half of stock, that app is going to take twice the time to open. The question is, will running running at 1267 MHz for 4 seconds use less energy than 2650 MHz for 2 seconds?
Looking at the voltage table for elementalx, the stock voltages are 890mV and 1110mV so it seems to me that since the voltage for half the max frequency is a lot higher than half the voltage of max frequency, running a task for twice as long would use more energy than max.
Surely, there will be tasks that take significantly fewer cycles than max frequency, so in those instances it may seem a bit more balanced, but its one of those things you're going to have to just try for yourself. Some people seem to get better battery though personally I'm not tempted.
Thank you, too! Now i understand.
Should I flash only the Lean Kernel or franco.Kernel and then look again at the battery life? Is this enough to get a better battery life on my device?

no. kernels generally wont give you better battery life, but they can help you. battery life is dependent on how you use your device, how you set up your device, what apps you installed and use, your brightness, and the quality of your phone/data connection. and much more other things that weigh in less then these on nattery life.
some apps you install can be badly written, and take lots of battery, even though you rarely use. dropping brightness can increase your battery life. i keep my brightness below 15% usually. if i raise it to 35-40%, ill see a whole hour less screen on time.
