How to?
Generally idea is simple: make changes to one tab and hit apply. If any changes have been made apply/discard buttons appear on bottom.
The first tab, "General" allows to change Scheduler,Governor/min and max frequencies.
Make changes and click apply
So, you want to pick a maximum/minimum frequency?
Just chose from slider and hit apply.
Governor/scheduler can be choosen by picking from the list, then hitting apply.
You can always discard changes before applying if you want start from loaded settings.
The "Advanced" tab has sliders to control undervolting settings and green/red icons, representing enabled/disabled state.
(green = enabled, red = disabled)
Pick your settings and hit apply, or discard and start over.
Profile support:
If you want to save as boot or as profile, you need to make adjustments and on "General" or "Advanced" tab and then apply them where applicable.
To save as boot -> press menu key, then select "Save as boot settings".
To save as profile -> press menu key, then select "Save profile".
Boot settings are automatically loaded on every device boot.
Profile settings can be loaded by pressing menu -> "Load profile"
Both "boot" and "profile" settings can be deleted from menu.
RECOVERY

FAQ:
Q: Extreme version?
Yes, I wanted to give some extras for people that support my work.
For now features exclusive to Extreme version are:
+ overvolting capability (max +50mV, 1500mV absolute maximum)
+ increased uv range (max -250mV)
Q: What is it?
Its voltage control app for undervolt and overclocking kernels providing sysfs interface, designed and implemented by raspdeep (thank You!) It is being tested on his kernel releases and I can guarantee (kind of) its functionality on those kernels.
The idea of the app is to keep all simple as possible, not adding any startup services and reusing existing solutions (such as init.d support).
Q: What does it mean to undevolt, and what is overclocking?
Read more in "OC / UV 101" section That is a detailed(sort of) explanation what UV/OC means.
Check this great overclocking/undervolting guide by shaolin95 (thanks!) and discussion topic!
Prerequisites:
-root (superuser + su)
-busybox
-OC kernel supporting either UVLF and UVHF (Version 1.61) or UV_mV_table (1.97 and up)
-init.d scripts support for apply on boot
3.0.1 - OLD version;

Thanks mate will check this out looks pretty sweet.

4,5 version pushed to market ;p

Thanks a lot for your app xan.
Would it be possible to include GPU OC as well? I saw you were using Siyah kernel which does support that ^_^

What are the interfaces? I have something coming for Siyah in the following week

Take a look at these this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18315860&postcount=3897
It has an example init.d script.

The init.d script for GPU OC or UV doesn't work for some people. Thats including myself, I change the value and save the script but nothing changes, I use Nenamark2 to see if my fps has changed, I still get around 50fps (400Mhz)
I asked someone else whose script was working somehow and he achieved 57fps on 400mhz.
I hope you try another way just like Tegrak app to OC and UV its GPU.
I'll defiantly buy it if Siyah kernel is supported

That's great , waiting for this, could you possibly give us a hint what's coming up next? Btw using voltage control atm for uving and I love it. Especially that it doesn't run in background but makes a script which no other CPU control app does (as far as I know). Thanks for your great work

Quite a lot of work has been put into latest branch, I dont think I want any clones floating around.
Most was put into ui / look /feel of app..
It doesnt differ much in 'getting' and 'setting' the values, so 3.x code is still very valid and working.

With the new changes and the possibility of custom frequency steps in upcoming syiah kernel 2.1... Is this app going to be updated to support those ? Because now when I change the frequency steps I can only modify them using setcpu, voltage control cant see the new values and displays only old ones. Same applies for the cpu usage screen.
I bought the premium version because of the syiah extras, so I am hoping it will be updated in the future
Great app btw, been using the old one on my SGS1 back in the days.

[Q] Check CPU speeds

I'm kinda new at the whole flashing kernel thing. i just downloaded and flashed the Tiamat_Evo (v4.0.6) on my GB 2.3.3 with CyanogenMad-7.0.3.1.
What are the ways to check the max/min speeds now and what are recommend ranges for long battery life and or fast performance on the EVO
+1 in advance

There's an app called CPU Spy Beta out...I couldn't find it in the market. Try Google...they seem to have everything. I'm underclocked with interactiveX 128/768. Runs great on battery with freedom kernal

If you use Setcpu to set frequencies it also has a feature that does the same thing. Go to the info tab then select time in state. Tells you everything that app does and more.

Cm7 has a built in CPU setting.
Settings - cyanogenmod settings - performance - CPU settings
I run min 128 Max 614, still speedy no reboots (unless I undervolt too much)
Also check out vipermod, it was designed around the tiamat kernel to allow you to change the voltages to your CPU. This also helps battery life!

I'm undervolted by 100 and I get get more and more battery life the longer I condition my battery. I'm also set at min 691 and max 921
The more that your phone spends time that it's switching clock speeds (drastic changes) seems like a waste of power.

Awesome, ill try that. is it best to reboot after applying the new settings?

If you just changed clock frequencies then no need to reboot as It's done on the fly. If you change voltages then you need to reboot. Vipermod is an excellent script. I have used it on sense kernels even though it wasn't made for them.
After looking closer at the vipermod script it doesn't say a reboot is required unless going back to factory defaults.

@civicboy, no real need to reboot, make sure the settings don't cause your phone to reboot on its own before checking set at boot. Same goes for undervolting, and, you are more likely to get reboots with undervolting. I have seen peoples phones that wont accept any undervolting... be cautious... do it in 25mv increments to find what your phone can handle... have the reset file on your sdcard at all times. Sounds scary but its really not that bad once you figure it out.
Check back with your results or if you need more info.

those numbers look too high. after you changed the value, did you enter "10" to save the changes and re-write to the init.d file?

Are you typing SU before you start vipermod? You have to give TU root for vipermod to work.

I think i got it figured out. i reflashed and restarted process and works great now, keeping all values. i went down -50. dont want to push my luck. Thanks for all the help!

Be sure to get vipers zip for reseting to default. This allows you to push the voltages and if you get boot looping you can just flash the reset from recovery.
And I gave you a "thanks" for actually thanking those that help out.

You are talking about the original zip file right? can i just creat a folder called vipermod and store it in that incase of emergency?

ha, i was going to pop his "thanks" cherry too.
there is restore defaults .zip you can flash. Put it on your sd for safe keeping wherever you like and remember.
Terminal emulator is fun to learn too

That's the file you need. Just put it on the root of the sdcard or wherever you know it's at and if you get into trouble going to crazy on voltages just flash it from recovery. It will reset your voltages back to defaults.

Could you try the cpu temp notification, just turn it on and off like 10 times and tell me if you get any FC or if its not showing.
Thanks

Version 1.7
A lot of bug fix. Fixed governor settings not applying, added a check box to set governor at boot, fixed clear cache for ROMs that doesn't support it, fixed crash for CPU temp notification, fixed loop when device can't reboot, clear cache, etc. Added GSF id and System id info, (Will just show it to you).

I think you have a minor typo in OP 'turn off CPU 2' should be 'turn off CPU 1' as cores are CPU 0, CPU 1 (duel core) then CPU 2 and CPU 3 (for quad core device)

Yes I know that, but for not developers people seeing a number 1 is like the first CPU will be off. Since you normally start counting with the number 1. I did name it number 1 in one of the tests and I received a lot of e-mails asking me if its safe to turn off the first CPU and why I'm not doing it with the second CPU. So I decided to change the number so that way people wont get confused.
So basically you are right, but I did it on purpose.

Krazeecracker, Thomas.Raines and Team Fah-Q! presents
The Lightning Zap! kernel for the Hercules
ATTN:
I Krazeecracker, thomas.raines, Team Fah-Q!, nor it's affiliates claim responsibility for anything you do to damage, destroy, brick, explode, or otherwise screw up your device.
I revamped the Lightning Zap! kernel across the board. Since I have so many of them I was loosing where I was on each one. So I have now broken it down into 3 phases:
Phase 1: Introduction of LZ kernel to device
Phase 2: Fine tuning of tweaks, values, etc
Phase 3: Implementation of OC/UV
Phase 4: Continue updating and adjusting as necessary
From now on I will name the .zip accordingly as well:
Sky_p2.1
On a good note, I think this latest update will finalize phase 2 and now I can work on OC/UV...
Features:
Improved performance
Improved battery life
Improved network speeds
Improved boot times
Smoother scrolling
Better responsiveness
Cleaner file systems
Governor tweaks for amazing speed and performance without sacrificing battery life
Improved Memory and Ram tweaks
Improved Internet speed
Amazing kernel tweaks, build.prop mods, init.d scripts and more!
Instructions:
Make a backup
Download LightningZapv1Sky.zip to PC
Transfer LightningZapv1Sky.zip to your sdcard
Or just download it straight to your phone
Reboot to recovery
Flash
Phone will automatically reboot after install**
Wait 10 minutes
Enjoy the Lightning Zap!
ATTN!
If you are currently on any version of Lightning Zap! kernel, you must either replace your build.prop from your ROM or re-flash your current ROM. Or you can open your build.prop with a text editor and delete all lines below the Lightning Zap Tweaks entry.
This kernel was tested on ParanoidAndroid. This kernel and tweaks will work with any version of CM10 post 14OCT.
**First boot, especially after a fresh install of your ROM (wipe system cache etc, flash ROM gapps Lightning Zap) will take a while. It will seem to hang between a blank screen (which use to be the 2nd boot splash) and the boot animation. There is no need to panic. Everything is fine. It is the vacuum script trying to clean databases that have yet to be created. After first boot, your phone will boot as normal (a little faster actually)...
After first boot, ensure your I/O scheduler is set to cfq and your governor is set to ondemand to gain the maximum benefits of Lightning Zap!
See 3rd post for further instructions on improving and customizing your Lighting Zap! experience.

xan for Voltage Control app

Download links and changelog
Downloads and changelog
Sky_p3.2-1.zip
Vibration fixed thanks to tmob.
Sky_p3.2.zip with rotation fix included
Skipped 3.1 because it was incomplete
Added userspace voltage control (You can now use an app or script to control your voltage. I tested with Voltage Control (preferred) and Antutu CPU Master)
For badass battery life, I am using noop io-scheduler, Lionheart governor, underclocked at 1026Mhz, and globally dropped voltage by -100mV
Deep sleep is working right again (doesn't take forever for it to enter ds)
Leaned up thread and removed old versions. They are gone for good so please don't ask...
Sky_p3.0.zip
Fixed the ability to set max/min cpu frequency. Thanks to car vs driver for pointing me in the right direction
Added OC/UV from flappjaxxx h0tcakez kernel source
Fine tuned ondemand governor
Archived changelog
Plans:
I want to trim down the oc frequencies. I think that 29 is just too much. I also want to cut back on the governors and io-schedulers. There are so many to choose from and everyone has their preferences. How bout some feedback in the general scetion here
Enjoy the Zap!

More tips and tricks
This is already included but left for reference.
The governor tweak is set for a fairly balance of performance and battery life. If you find yourself needing battery life over performance, you can make some minor changes. Here's how:
1 Download Script Manager from the market (it's free)
2 Open Script Manager and navigate to /system/etc/init.d
3 Press menu/more/advanced options and select mount as RW
4 Select 01governor and select "edit" at the top (this will open the file in atext editor)
5 Uncomment (remove # in the particular line) and change:
Code:
echo "45" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold;
To:
Code:
echo "[COLOR=red]70[/COLOR]" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold;
6 Select menu/save
7 Press the skull and cross bones icon at the top (this will allow Super User)
8 Press run, close app and enjoy
This will result is slightly slower performance but higher battery life.
If you want even better battery life:
1 Following steps 1-4
2 Add a # at the begining of lines 11 to 19
3 Scroll to "pwoersaver" section
4 Remove the # at the begining of lines 28, 30-38 and 43
Code:
#AWAKE_GOVERNOR="ondemand"
#SLEEP_GOVERNOR="ondemand"
# echo "70" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold;
etc
Code:
AWAKE_GOVERNOR="powersaver"
#SLEEP_GOVERNOR="powersaver"
echo "20000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate;
5 Follow steps 6-8 (no need to select super user icon if you already did)
This will result in lower performance, but ultimate battery life
When running in a higher performance mode (especially for gaming) you can disable powersave_bias by changing the 1 to a 0 like this:
Code:
echo "1" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/powersave_bias;
echo "[COLOR=red]0[/COLOR]" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/powersave_bias;
Powersave_bias only allows the CPU to peak for small increments at a time, and not allow the CPU to remain peaked even when the system calls for it. In gaming, that could result in choppy, laggy perofrmance and slow FPS..
Although it says not to in the script, you can change the sampling rate as well. Do not go below 50000. I left it at 57500 as I found this seems good setting for smooth scrolling and performance.
Code:
echo "[COLOR=Red]57500[/COLOR]" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate;
Always leave SLEEP_GOVERNOR="powersave" uncommented (no #) and do not uncomment any other SLEEP_GOVERNOR as this will keep ultimate battery save while screen is off.
Only change values in increments of 5 for the up_threshold.
This is already included but left here for reference.

Then add this to your cm.mk file i your device directory:
Code:
# adding Lightning Zap tweaks to build
$(call inherit-product, vendor/lz-kernel/lightningzap.mk)
And don't forget to remove the kernel entry in your cm.dependencies found in your device directory...

First! This should be fun...

Nice... If only it had OC/UV... the dev said he would add it later.

Nice, but I have to admit this is quite confusing for me to read, a lot of stuff. (I'm ADHD)

Lol, basically just flash with the rotation fix and your good to go. If you have the need for more juice then follow the third post. And fourth is for adding to an existing ROM your going to build, i.e. your kangs

Wait so this is the same as the one on skyrocket? So we still need rotation fix?

Correct lol

Couldn't you just merge the rotation fix zip and the kernel together? It would make things easier in a sense.

Pardon me if I missed it, but is this kernel for Jelly Bean or Ice cream sandwich? Thanks.

Jellybean only

I am currently on all-star ROM and on speed test the download is about 1mb slower but the upload was about 1.5mb higher on my network. I also notice the vibration isn't as strong is that me or does it have to do with the kernel as for battery I'm not sure yet. Thanks

You can modify :
- governors
- schedulers
- max frequences *
- table of voltages *
* if your kernel have OC/UV options
List of commands
Open an application like Android Terminal Emulator
Start always a session with su + enter ...
Code:
Architect
*that give you some informations and recommandations
Code:
governors
*that will show you all governors available

*That will set - or + in mV
that will show you before and after
Warning: the base is volt0
How to have these scripts actived at boot
2 way :
- the folder init.d
- use Script manager
1) init.d
Copy your combinaison, for example :" interactive, deadline, volt-25 and past it in /system/etc/init.d/
Don't forget to be in root explorer and give right permissions *... ( read, write, execute )
You can find all my scripts in /system/bin/
or : Kernel-Architect-scripts.zip
2) Script Manager
Take the application Script Manager on play store
Choose the script, give root access and apply at boot
You can find all my scripts in /system/bin/
or : Kernel-Architect-scripts.zip

I like alternatives. Especially the simplicity. Thanks.

I really expected a lot more activity in here. I would be here more often, but haven't had a single issue with the scripts. $hts on point. Battery lasting 3 days sometimes and I don't have to touch a thing or ever re-tweak. Just set all my (your) scripts on boot... Done.
And I still like the fact I don't have to mess around with an app.

Anybody need to begin by silence

Very good work, works great....thank you sir
reason for not much traffic, not many people like venturing into the kernel area and such....
But for peeps like us, this rocks.

I hear you. I was more leaning towards some thanks buttons being pressed. Maybe a question or two. But mainly on these threads you see a ton of requests. You should know, your thread(s) are full of requests. LOL.

What is the benefit to using this versus setcpu or trickster?

The benefit is not using an app.

Why is that a benefit though? I'm not trying to be difficult, I'm genuinely interested. If using something like this increases my Android knowledge, I'm all for it. I would just like to know before I dig into it more.

This mod will allow for all your specified kernel settings to load at boot via androids init.d. Apps like Trickster will load up in system memory after the OS has booted and will then apply the modifications you specify. You could say that scripts like this are "cleaner" ways of applying tweaks as it is done during boot naturally through the OS and negates the need to have an additional app starting and running in the background. That being said, init.d scripts are not as user friendly as apps like Trickster and could take some time to get used to if you don't have much experience with them. The scripts may also increase boot time but will most likely be a negligible amount.
