Hey guys so I've been reading up and it comes to my attention that people here don't recommend setcpu rather fauxclock or system tuner. I come from g2x and everyone there recommended setcpu and I am pretty used to it ( simple interface) and I want to know why people don't use it here

sorry double post
bump, please answer guys! thank you
I believe setcpu doesn't play nice with this phone (it didn't with the vibrant). If I'm not mistaken faux was made new for this phone.
I've used SetCPU since beta and have had 0 issues. I have heard that FauxClock is better with voltage control and a few more settings.

So on the miui.us.us latest after installing tiamat kernel everything works great...but do I need to install something like setCPU(which I would like to avoid) to set clock speeds etc etc. I'm pretty sure you do seeing how I can't find it anywhere in settings. I know in roms such as mexdroid and the like new kernels replace "performance settings". So I'm thinking I need to use setCPU.
Thanks for any help given

I'm not completely sure about that specific kernel, but its a pretty good idea to run SetCPU if your ROM doesn't include CPU settings.
For example, if the kernel you installed OC's up to 1.5ghz or something, you may prefer to run at a lower frequency. SetCPU is probably a good idea. Also, if you want to run at 1.5ghz you're going to need SetCPU profiles for heat and screen off, etc.

Thanks for response. I know all about setCPU, I just don't like it. But yeah looks like that's the only option. Although miui.us seems to be clocked at 1GHz so I think I'll just stick with that.
Thanks again...and tiamat kernel works great on it

Good. Yea I don't like setCPU either. I use the built in controls in CM7. If you're happy with the stock clock speed and don't have issues you won't need to use it.

Which app would be best to control the kernels customizable contents like overclocking wattage audio boost. I'm kinda noob when it comes to changing settings that are allowable through the kernel i probably listed most that cant be. But what app is good for overclocking would it be the setcpu app?

Absolutely SETCPU. Make sure you let it auto detect after you install.
EDIT: Tiny updated to beta6, he says it's the RC now.
Thanks! I've been wondering about that one but didn't want to feel like I was wasting my money.

no, setCPU is the ****; you won't be wasting your money, trust.
What's the best to use? I see a lot of different ones out there
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
i use set cpu...10x easier i feel
I use well.. cpu tuner lol
it's a little more advance.
I use the "Uniform" configuration and set my stuff there.
this works best for profiles, triggers, etc.
No frills is a nice simple one I've used since I had a nexus s.
I use a script to uv/oc
Lol I didn't think I'll have that many different opinions about this. I think I'll go with set CPU...I need something easy for me lol

So I have finally got round to taking control of my Play. Unlocked my bootloader, rooted, applied DooMKernel v14 and now have Gin2JelllyBean rom.
I've already managed to squeeze a day more battery life thanks for SetCPU down clocking while the screen is off. Now id like to look at undervolting.
From what I read, there should be an undervolting option active in SetCPU but it's not there. I thought DooMKernel supported this, so firstly I just wanted to ask if there is anything I need to do to activate it or if might have gone wrong somewhere?
Thanks in advance.

I have SetCPU too and it doesn't let me change the voltages. I am using IncrediControl for changing them, and it works
OC/UV Beater2 v1.7, allows setting voltages in an init.d script, so there aren't any unnecessary services running on boot
Thanks for the suggestions guys I will check them out.
Still confused why I can't use SetCPU though.

Be careful u dervolting, can actually decrease battery life. Never set undervolts to run at boot.

Now how do you figure that
i am using System Tuner Pro
all in one apps for CPU modding
but try SetExperia, its lightweight
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)

Downloading ... I've been hearing your name around the forums so this has to be good.. Thanks for your hard work
Dude excellent work on this. Have it flashed and intellidemand is an awesome addition. Thanks for your hard work, I'll let you know if I run into anything.

I'm having major speed issues. My overclock used to work so much better. Something keeps forcing the CPU down. Idk what it is....

Any projections on what this should do for battery? Is it likely to improve battery life or improve performance?
Thanks for the hard work.

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
Thank you for cooking it

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.

Ummmm try wiping cache/dalvik/ I highly doubt you are anything but slightly softbricked.
Having great success with with newest kernel. I even got an antutu of over 19000 with a hotplugging driver enabled! I'm pretty happy so I hope your guys experieces will mirror mine.
Well originally I ran antutu, then the phone went off, and notification light and capacitive lights flashed. I couldn't access recovery do I attempted a lgnsp. Now it won't even charge or turn on

I assume this is a4.3 compatible kernel? Work with PAC man?

All you had to do was wipe caches after your cash. Since you ran out your battery you made things so hard on yourself

Also if you want good performance and hotplugging go to tricksters mod enable intelliplug and temperature throttle
