[Q] Best Kernel on G2 with MIUI

Trying to find out to anyone using or not using MIUI which kernel is the best for the G2, i am also trying to find out what SetCPU profiles work best with that kernel from personal experience.

Curious myself.
*bump*

I'm on the latest Pershoot and battery and performance is some much better than stock kernel. In fact, battery life is possibly better than Sense! I OC'd to 825-1497 MHz screen on and 245-368 with the screen off. I get the occasional (once in the few days I've been running the ROM) refusal to wake up, but I heard that's a bug in CM (which MIUI is based off) to do with OCing + screen on/off animations. I did, however, get tons of freezes and reboots when my maximum frequency was set at 1516MHz, which seems to be above the threshold my phone can take.
Anyway, that's my experiences, YMMV!
Hope I helped

I have been in MIUI_1.07.15_OsiMood v1.0 (just flashing to 1.2)
atleast in 1.0 FM-radio on desire z didn't work whit Streamline5 and Pershoot 2.6.35.13 kernels. on default kernel it works.
i dont think i'm going to try out those kernels in 1.2... any kernel suggestions whit smartass/conservative governors and hopefully working FM-Radio?

Which version of MIUI are your running?
I'm currently running Carpes' Miui Version, "Light Gets Lighter"
The kernel I use is Eugenes' Streamline5 Kernel which can be found here Streamline5
He has a MIUI version but for some reason doesn't run well so just download the Original.
Here is the download link if you have trouble finding it > kernel download <
As for Setcpu settings
Max/Min
Main:
1000/800, smartass
Profiles:
Screen Off: 384/245, smartass
I only find the need for a screen off profile because I like my phone kept on low hz and it's pretty much the same as battery charging profiles if you have the same hz
Its also recommended not to underclock lower then 245 as it will cause a lock up or freeze being unable to wake up due to slow processing speed
1 Day, 13 Min, 56 Seconds = 21% Battery Left
Total about 1 hour browsing internet, maybe 20min total of youtube videos and moderate texting

I was coming in to say just about the same thing. Funny because I'm usung the exact same SetCPU settings. Streamline5 is the absolute best way to go.

Happy to hear and yes, Streamline5 is awesome!
If Both our reviews still don't help then maybe this will. Another great thing about Streamline5 is that it will still run smooth even if you leave it clocked at just 800 alone and maybe squeeze a little more juice out .
Reason I scale it to 1000 is I like the little speed boost it gives me

Yes, got Tiamat kernel runing in my MIUI, and looks like everything is working fine, even FM-radio...
has all the necessary governors, and goes up to 2ghz

I can't get past the bootanimation after flashing streamline5 on CarpeNoctem"s miui. any help would be appreciated.
also, can I manually change the min mhz up to 245?

Best SetCPU Config for Desire

Hello
Does anybody use set cpu with HTC Desire ?
I would like to know wich settings work the best for you. I am trying to get the best compromise between battery life and performance.
Thanks

128MHz - 998MHz ondemand. I get more than enough life out of it. I found that if your using AOSP and not really doing much on it like just texting or calling people, capping the max to about 600MHz or 500MHz if you want, works a dream and you get even longer out of it.

Smartass is better or worse ?

I do not see any real difference between smartass and interactive in term of battery live and performance.
On demand seems to drain slightly faster than smartass.
I set my Desire to 384-1136 with interactive govenor.
I charge it once i a day each time before I go to bed anyways (sleeping time usually23.00 - 05.00), so further battery saving is not necessary to me
Edit...my normal usages are:
Syncs (no auto sync by opening):
Friendstream 4 hrs
News 4 hrs
Weather 6 Hrs
push Yahoomail
push Googlemail
push Whatsapp
push EBuddy
Active background :
Lookout antivirus
No app killer used
Phone calls : about 1-2 hrs each day
Music listening mit DSP add-on : 4 hours
Fruit ninja (man! this is addictive!) : 1 hrs
Browsing (Dolphin HD + Android market) : 2 hrs
welll....every time I charge my battery it is about 15-25% left till out of juice...if I use my phone more than those, I have to charge it earlier (more than once a day)

245 - 985 MHz Conservative give mere 36 hours power and running smooth.

For me the battery has never lasted more than a day... Even on my un-rooted one...

BTW: Battery live depends on many things
1. Your ROM and kernel
2. Your runnning application, syncs, etc.
3. your usage and settings such as cpu freq, display brightnes, airplane mode, etc.
4. Received signal quality.
5. The condition of the battery...is it top fit for example?
It is difficult to measure the battery live.
@atuladhikari : battery live has nothing to do with rooting..

I don't like using any of the other governors since I get lag. I hate lag. OnDemand gets rid of the lag for me. I've had it before where I was using smartass and it took ~30 seconds for my screen to turn back on from idle. I wasn't too impressed.

setcpu
thanks meaple for your advice
i think that set cpu is fine on "ondemand" for some roms and for others roms no
set cpu is included on oxygen settings and running well

Cool, I need to download Setcpu

128-998 ondemand
screen off 128-384 ondemand
in call 128-384 ondemand
I get very good battery and performance with theses settings.

Which app do you guys recommend? Tried overclock widget doesn't seem to be working.
Am on Insertcoin stock GB rom.

DidI do that?....I did.... LOL.

I used to use set cpu
set a profile like
Smartass
on charge - 1113mhz
80% - 100% - 998mhz
59% - 79% - 600mhz
35% - 58% - 500mhz
Screen Off - 300mhz
Priority was higher for lower battery %
BUT I stopped using it because of the little bugs, like when it changes to 384mhz for no reason after unlocking screen
It also affects the standard script with the rom you install, so you can never uninstall it properlu, you have to do a full wipe install and never install it, until I did that my phone was always a little laggy
I prefer my phone without it Each to their own

@shankly1985 - you didn't noticed wakeup lag with 128 MHz?
I must use 245 - x MHz to properly and fast unlock my phone.

Best Setcpu config for Desire is - no Setcpu at all.

I couldn't agree more with you. Experienced all of the above so no go.

245-1033mHZ with smartass give me two day out of my desire loaded with insercoin 1.0.9 with v06 kernel !
I am mostly sending Text message and some calls.

Not at all mate, I get zero lag on my phone. when I check the info on the setcpu app and time in state 128 is at 85% so my phone is using very little cpu.

SetCpu sets my clock speed passed the limit I set

So I just got my galaxy S3 sgh-i747, I have rooted it, installed a custom kernel (ktoonsez Sammy kernel) and installed the pro version of setCPU.
The problem I am having is that even though I set an overclock limit to 1674 mHz, setCPU will occasionally boost it to 1890 for no apparent reason. This causes my phone to heat up immensely and renders it unstable.
I have also tried profiles (one for screen on, other for screen off) yet even with the profiles and notifications I get, the app still acts up. I am wondering if the widget and the app are just glitchy and displaying those speeds but not really setting the CPU at that level...
Here are some screenshots for clarification:
Edit: Sigh.. I cannot post screenshots..
But basically in my screens I show that the slider is set to a max of 1674 yet in another screenshot it shows that my time spent at 1890 mhz is 40%.... yikes
Has anyone experienced this before? How would I go about fixing this?
Thanks for any help!

Try voltage control, it's what ktoonsez recommends for his kernel and works like a champ for me.

You running old version of sammy kernel ? get newest 8-15b , i to use setcpu and have no such problems , very early versions of his kernel did that.

Post a link to the new kernel...8-11 buikd is fine setcpu and system tuner is the best 2 there is imo

[Q] WTF Dual Core?! *Clockspeeds*

so the Galaxy Nexus has a dual core 1.2ghz TI Omap right? thats 2 cores running at 1.2ghz each? or are the clockspeeds split between the cores?
using Kernel Tuner to manage my CPU speed i noticed that when i exit the CPU tab CPU1 goes offline until i hit CPU1 on/off. nice feature to be able to turn it on or off on the fly, but why isnt it on by default?
then after a while, even set to Performance mode and no matter what i set, my clockspeeds drop by half and fluctuate as if i have the governor set to Ondemand and again with only CPU0 activated slowing my phone down immensely!
im currently running Axi0m with Fancy Kernel but have noticed this on the included kernel and in EOS and SlimBean too.
its really annoying to watch Need for Speed Most Wanted fps drop gradually while racing, or even Into The Dead
is this my phone acting up or is this actually a Deep Sleep feature?

This may be an app compatibility issue. From the market Application officially supports only HTC EVO 3D GSM/CDMA, however it might also work on other devices. Try a different app, Trickster Mod perhaps.

This could be the app too. Performance governor should never fluctuate in speed. It should lock in at the top speed you have set, and never change from there. It could also be that you have something with profiles that changes your speeds/governors when certain requirements are met (under 50% battery underclock and use on demand governor).

There are settings and governors that do disable a core when sleeping, or when not needed in hopes of saving battery. Most don't come with this enabled by default, as there are some folks that run into stability issues with those options.

your right, Kernel Turner is "officially" only supported by HTC EVO 3d. ive used it on a bunch of other phones and never ran into any problems, like my Samsung Intercept and Evo Shift even an Exhibit 4g. will give Trickster Mod a go
by chance do you know if Axi0m rom has only 1 core enabled by default? i had noticed these sames fluctuations in it's built in CPU controller BEFORE i installed Kernel Tuner. actually this was the REASON i installed Kernel Tuner
also i dont have any profiles or apps set up to govern my CPU frequencies. literally have have 4 games, TerrariaHB and Kernel Tuner lol.

ok ive played around with it a little bit and still having the frequencies drop to 537 even with Trickster Mod, both cores are saying offline and i set frequency lock.
i had my phone set to 806mhz Performance, played with it for a few, come back and...well?

here it is AGAIN after just sitting there and clicking apply doesnt change it! i have to change the frequency then click apply and it does, but it only seems to for a few minutes

-_- im an idiot...
"Max Screen Off"

You will press v under status bar for apply with setting otherwise you will never stay at the same set than before
For apply at boot use settings > apply at boot
Don't use performance, it's useless and deprecated, use interactive instead

[Q] SetCPU Profiles not compatible on GTab 3?

On my Galaxy Tab 3 (8 Inch) Whenever I set a profile (Screen off, go into conservative kernel for example), my Tab literally freezes. When I turn the screen back on and swipe the animation moves slightly then freezes and my Tab gets completely stuck(Have to force restart). Are screen off profiles or profiles in general not compatible with the GTab 3? :crying:

Update, after setting profiles in ROM Toolbox it seems to work fine, avoid SetCPU if you can. Seems to be incompatible.

I currently use ROM TOOLBOX and it does the job too bad had to buy new cpu overclocking tool when switched devices . . .
Do you too, have high cpu usage with only few apps on ? Think samsung apps takes a lot cpu ?
Today some strange things happens with the screen - tab turns off themscreen itself ,
-happend when layed down tje tablet on the desk (twice)
-happend when unused for a minute (screen is set to turn off after 10min)
Do or did you have similar behaviours?
