[Q]How to go under voltage?

I keep hearing people say they uv -xx number to save battery, how do you do that?

You can check the kernel thread you installed from. Usually use echo command and point to vdd_table. If you don't understand what undervolting is, you may not want to do it. It can cause issues if you undervolt too much. It can save battery life, but i would suggest using setcpu, you can find a free copy on xda, and setting profiles, like screen off, in call, etc., to lower values. I would say, stay above 300MHz for min. and clock down the max. Min are: 384-540 for screen off; 384-540 for in call. also, with some roms, you can set the main value, on the first tab, to a lower figure in the max column. I don't charge my phone everyday anymore.

Thanks for the detailed info. But I heard there's an app that does uv?

Luckily, I do use Juggernaut.

I installed fauxclock but I don't see a way to under voltage? I only see the interface to set CPU clock. Am I missing something here?

Ah ha!!! I see!!! Thanks!!
I've used up my "thanks" for today but I'll definitely come back tomorrow.

What is the uv number I should generally set to save battery but not have the phone freeze?
If I set it to negative too much and the phone freezes, I just reboot the phone and re-set the number to a higher (less uv) value?

it's different from phone to phone, you just gotta try it out and see.. i UV mine about 100mv under stock at 1.51ghz

Mine can do 100 also

I can only go -62.5. Anything over that will freeze the phone...

How come every phone is different in this regard, does this mean my phone is "born" to consume more battery?

Thought I saw posted somewhere here not to use SetCpu on our phone? FauxClock always FC's on me. Running Jugs overclock on rooted/flashed T-Mo SGS2.

[Q] How do you overclock your Gio?

Hey guys, i got cyanogen mod 7.2 installed on my phone, and whenever i tried to change the max cpu speed from the settings, it would now work after boot. Most of the market programs i use freeze as soon as i try to apply my changes. I got "No-frills Cpu control" to work once, so i made it 844 max clock speed. (I confirm using android system info app"). EDIT: after another frozen reboot, the clock speed has gone back down to 787 again -_- . So frustrating!!
So i was wondering, which app do you use to overclock your gio that doesnt freeze?

Use set cpu..
U can set diff profile w/ that

Best app for my Gio is Antutu CPU Master.
Set your overclock, thick set on boot and reboot your phone!

Alright, so i got my max set to 864 and min to 245, and while im using it i get a bunch of random reebots every 3 min, and one sleep of death where it wont wake up unless you pull battery -_-. Using built in overclock still

use set cpu.set max 844 is good for gio then tick "set on boot"

I feel that the Smartassv2 cpu profile consumes more battery than the On demand one. Anyone here think the opposite?

Possible. But smartass also gives more performance than ondemand governor

I'll have to try that, I am using on-demand currently

Which is the best governor for gaming performance?

Performance or smartass v2
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

For performance the best governor is "performance". It causes that processor overclocking is always the highest. It means that if you have overclcked processor at 921MHz, with this governor phone will always work at 921MHz. But don't use it, it drains battery as hell
The best governor for daily use is SmartassV2, because it's balance between performance and battery
And sorry for my English :|
Na szczęście jest TapaTalk

which 1 is best for daily uses????
i am using smartassv2 but sometimes my phone becomes very very slow takes 1mint to slide the status bar phone apps etc.....
what is i/o schedular??? is it effect the speed?? which 1 is best???

Now I just use the On demand governor. Smartassv2 drains my battery pretty fast

Yup,any overclock will drain your battery quicker,this is very logical as you consume more power,right?I use No Frills CPU control,and i have my galaxy Gio set to 921 Mhz....! It realy works like asmall little pocket rocket now...I was already very satisfied with the price/performance ratio of this cheap little phone,but now with this stable OC it really hits it out of the park!!!No complaints from me about this phone..I'm gonna try and achieve an even higher oc,but it's really not a must,just want to know how far i can push it.No Frills has a benchmarker impemented ,very handy.

That's true. But smartass is just like balance between perfomance and battery drain, which makes it the best governor

No Frills vs SetCpu

Which 1 is better?? I've tried both. Cant seem to tell except that SetCpu can make diff profile than No Frills n No Frills can determent whether ur phone is in deep sleep or not.
So, my Q remains Which is better??
Thanks vokal1992

That depends on what you need. I personally like that you can have setCPU profiles for each app individually.

Ya, i'm using SetCpu 2. But to know whether ur phone is in deep sleep or not u gonna need another app like "CpuSpy". Why cant SetCpu hav deep sleep feature/option that can let us know bout our phone gone into deep sleep.
Thanks vokal1992

SetCPU as it has profiles.

But i think its originate from SetCPU So they both aren't that much of a diff But antutu has a feature that could control ur cpu power usage aka undervolt ur cpu that SetCPU dosen't hav. So thats good too

Enable undervolting.

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.

[SOLVED] link2sd,int2ext+ not working.

Hello,
i have htc wildfire s (marvel,rooted,s-on,stock 2.3.5 rom).i have facing problems with internal storage tweaks,like link2sd isn't working on my phone and also i have tried cronmod int2ext+ its working for a while (one-two weeks) then automatically my phone slow down and then restart self and all my apps data removed.
i dont know what is problem,might possible if i ported many different rom before?if anyone have solution please help.

Are you using stock kernel? Flash cake kernel or dust and try link2sd again.

im using stock kernel.can you send me link of both kernels and which one is best for good battery life? and also tell me about min,max,gov. setting for them because i dont know much.
and i just have to flash it via recovery ? i need to wipe anything like dalvik cache or partition cache?
thanks in advance.

I'm from phone so I won't be able to provide you link right now. You can search it in the development section.
You just need to flash the zip without any wipes or anything.
I personally like smartass v2 as it gives a balance between performance and battery with cfq scheduler. Set minimum to whatever doesn't give you lag and max to 787.

hey i m using cake kernel v1.4 by einstein frat
bt really i dont wana overclock my phone.i changed that setting.
my correct settings are:
122MHz-600 MHz
ondemand,deadline
my phone isnt lag.so is it good for good battery life?
or i should hv chose smartass v2 and cfq?
and really i dont want to overclock my phone so.

Smartass governor works better when it cones to savings battery as well as thrusting performance. I'd suggest you try it once. I really have no specific knowledge about any perfect input output scheduler but cm cones with cfq and i used to go with noop on my sense roms. It's all about smoothness isn't it?

And yeah with clocking to 600 Mhz you are definitely saving more battery than a higher clock so don't worry.

hey buddy.you were right,smartass v2 is better than stock settings.it gives me more life.
can you tell me min frequency is better when its high or low..like if i set min frequency to 122 MHz is better or 480 MHz is better?
i do what you said.i just flashed it without any wipes.so when i didnt wipe my old kernel so it overwrite it on? like stock kernel replaced by cake?
and im using set cpu app is good right?

Yes set cpu is good.
You can just flash kernel without any wipes.. Yes it should have replaced the old.
A lower cpu min cpu frequency is preffered but it should be high enough to cause no lag when unlocking the phone. 245 Mhz is the ideal frequency
