Is it ok to use SetCpu with shadow kernel? I see most people recommend Voltage Control but what's the big difference?

Some people had erratic behavior with setcpu. Try it. If it works OK for you then leave it.

Thanks. I had bought it a long time ago when it was the best thing since sliced bread, just didn't want it to go to waste.

Voltage Control is free, works better, and is recommended.

Voltage control is overall better app. It is updated often also. The problem with set cpu is that it is poorly coded and reads frequencies that we don't even use (ie 75mhz). Voltage control is much better and if you pay for it you can get profiles.

You mean like "screen off" "temp = x" and stuff like setcpu

I'm having problems with the so called "sleep of death".
I make all my profiles and leave the defaults for conservative. Minimum is set to 200mhz and max for screen off is 600.
It seems like no matter what I set the clocks to my phone never wakes up from sleep. I have to pull the battery to turn it back on.
Running SFR1.1.1.

Is it the screen off profile?
If you're using the included kernel for SRF 1.1.1 don't use a screen off profile, set it to conservative, and minimum cpu at 200mhz. It should be fine with those settings.
Its on the first page of the SRF thread.

Switch to paid version of Voltage Control. It's optimized for us now.
Having issues with setcpu freezing up my phone even with no profiles.
If voltage control is optimized for epics I may buy it. Underclocking really boosts battery life.

What was your lowest freq set to? Some phones don't like 200 at all
Sent from my armed and operational battle station.
Wasn't Conservative deemed buggy for the Epic? And ondemand was the better option?
The new twilight kernel, which is included in SRF 1.1.1 is fine with conservative.
There is a free version of voltage control too. Uninstall set cpu and try that first and see how that works for you... if that doesn't help, maybe you should flash a different kernel.

Yup. I believe this is posted a few times on the ACS thread. Go with Genocide or Vision. Now on demand will drop below 200 even if its set at your minimum but may very well still work.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I thbought there were also problems by using profiles at all.
Have you tried getting rid of the profiles? (After backing them up, of course)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I use the Vision kernel with SetCPU to ondemand with NO issues at all I had profiles enabled at one point but it seemed redundant because I had it set to ondemand. If you have it set to anything other than ondemand then I can see using profiles.
Hey all. I bought this also last night and I really like it. Phone seems much smoother then with set cpu. My concern is when I set the clock speed, I apply them to run on init.d. But when I open the app to check the settings it shows my minimum speed as high as my maximum speed. But if I go to the voltage settings then back to the cpu settings its fine. My minimum and maximum speeds are fine. It shows both maxed out when I first open the app. I just don't want my cpu full bore all the time. Thanks.

I think what you are seeing is actually the Max of each core, not the min/max.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Also to whenever your changing speeds in system tuner after you set the desired speeds click on the kernel tab at the bottom and click on file that's says "mpdecision " and kill it, this ensures that both cpu will come back on line as the adjusted speeds you set
I stand corrected. The top slider is Max, bottom is min

You could also try and use Fauxclock for setting OC speeds and a screen off profile and just use System Tuner for UV and SD tweaks. This has been my combo and it works wonders.

Hello, I'll admit i'm a noob, but the only way to learn is to ask sometimes dumb questions. Anyways, i'm currently running malice ROM on my sgs2 and it care with fauxclock for overclocking. It shows that one CPU is running and the other is offline and occasionally will flicker on for a second and show offline and won't flicker on and off for quite a while. Is this normal? Or should both be on at the same time?

This ^^^, its been awhile since I was on gb, but there's a line of code in the init.qcom.post_boot.sh file that initiates a governor of sorts, that only enables second CPU on high load.
To confirm, run a benchmark test in antutu benchmark and reopen faux clock, it'll show both cpu's as active
Unless your on ICS, you have a single core phone, second one barely gets used...unless you have a TON of stuff open
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
So with GB roms, it utilizes one constantly under normal conditions unless under heady load and the second one picks up the slack as needed......and ICS utilizes both constantly? Is that pretty much right?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
You can force the second core to run all of the time - I was able to do it with a script that locked out the kernel from turning it off. Doesn't really do much except eat up your battery though.
You can also use system tuner app to force second cpu online but like onyx00 posted just eats bettery.
Hello
I'm currently using a note2core asylum kernel which supports both cpu and gpu overclocking. My question is, how do I go about overclocking the gpu? Any help will be appreciated.

I know. Its all for.research purposes anyway
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure if note2core supports stweak but that's the app you need to over clock. There are other but I prefer this one. It will give you a maximum slide to 1800mhz and also tons of other features such as adjusting charging amp, under volting including for the gpu as well. There's not much to know about over clocking as its pretty straight forward but you can change the xpu governor and the number of cores you want activated and how you want them to activate based on your usage. Under volting will help with both temperature and battery life although I find the changes almost insignificant, but you should try it out. If you want to undervolt start with around - 25mv.

You are talking about cpu not gpu
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Okay it's not that different. Just over clock it and undervolt at the same time to - 25mv and then download an app called stabilitytest from play store. Run it for 10minutes and see if you get any error. If not then further lower the voltage to - 50mv. But usually - 25 is good. I noticed that anything higher clocks peed than 5xxmhz starts causing error and graphic glitches.

This is a kernel I have made based off of the Gproject kernel for CM.
Features:
10/25
Added wheatley and smartmax governors. As many TCP congestion options as one could ask for. A couple other small things.
10/24-4
Fix CM compatibility break. Bye bye LSD effect
10/24-3
The kernel package is now using an implementation of koush's anykernel.
I suggest for those who are having any issue to flash back to their ROM image (don't delete data). Then reflash using this. It uses the ramdisk already present on the device so it might break less things
10/24-2
Reset the GPU min freq to stock so that we don't lose battery
10/24
GPU OC extended for to 585Mhz. Woot woot.
10/23
1.89Ghz if you dare MWAHAHAHA
10/22
162Mhz was a little bit hopeful so I got rid of the frequency because without that we seem to lose the HW resets. Overclock still seems to work fine Antutu 20200.
10/21
Overhauled the CPU frequency range. We now have stable OC to 1.81 and UC to 162Mhz. Depending on the application you can toy with intellithermal settings to get the best performance from that situation.
Edit: not so stable at 1.81 I lied go for 1.72 for now (always forced to eat my words)
10/17
Quite a few changes. We have an updated wifi driver as well as an updated graphics driver. I added gamma control. Simple GPU governor is now set to default for battery savings and by that one can imply obviously it is working now. FIOPS scheduler added. A few minor things.
9/30-2
removed knock knock by farbuggy
9/30
Okay so I am really really really hoping this one rids SOD's good. Also I added a knock on interface. Until it gets implemented into the systemui of a rom though it will only work while screen is off. (It's a work in progress and the knock on ability is disablable though the file /sys/kernel/knock_knock/knock_knock_enabled[1 = on, 0 = off]) This I believe is the first custom kernel to have any kind of knock on type interface. So far it's just been made up for by showp-1985's s2w.
9/29
Tweaked undervolt so hopefully we can say goodbye to SOD's. I have had success with lower settings but this should cover a broader base. If anyone get's an SOD with these settings, let me know and I will update the kernel ASAP.
9/28
Added undervolt by default and faux123 mako's implementation of sweep2wake. It doesn't show in tricksters mod but you can turn it on and off in sysfs through the file /sys/kernel/s2w_parameters/s2w_switch. (1 = on, 0 = off)
9/27
Ummm let's see... Today we got: GPU Overclock to 487Mhz, intelli-thermal from faux123, and a couple little things here and there .
Edit: I added a little more there is now an adjustable voltage table and the phone defaults with intelliplug and intellithermal
9/26
Intellidemand doesn't control hotplugging anymore. That functionality is moved to intelliplug. I think we have hotplugging and performance now let me know all! (mpdecision still enabled by default, go to trickster and see the new additions )
9/25
Faux sound control.
Intellidemand. (mpdecision should be turned off to utilize this feature properly)
Extended CPU frequency range (192Mhz - 1728Mhz)

Maybe it has something to do with MPDecision or temp throttling? I know in the past I've seen other kernels have some issue at first with fully disabling it, causing it to continue to interfere with some settings.
Awesome work..... With faux

I'm not an expert on governors but with intellidemand (on our other roms) my optimal freq and sync freq were usually like 702mhz. Stock this kernel puts it at 192mhz. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not sure what these fields even mean. I'd like to know if anyone has any info.
I'm running the kernel anyway and so far so good. Thank you NeighborhoodHacker for this great kernel.
edit: I just tested Asphalt 8 and so far this kernel holds frame rates really well!! I don't if I was doing something wrong before, but for the longest time this game was unplayable for me.
