Wanna save some battery?
Have a look at this, my experience on undervolting my Nexus using Franco kernel:
Red - system not stable
Green - system stable and runs without any crash

the 3 minutes were tested under heavy duty - frequent task switching, video streaming and file system stressing. I'll update the document once I find any unstable voltages, so please come back for updates if you wish.
btw, everyone's phone is different, so the voltage settings may not work on all phones.
Here's what I've been using

If you wanna take the time to play with the voltages, you will get better battery life than using SR. I watched SR and it was running a good 75+mv higher across the board than when I underclocked it. Its been just as stable and smooth manually undervolting.

I was reading about few people showing undervoltages and stuff but I get really lost I dont want to mess up my phone.
I am running the lean kernel or imoseyon and I flashed it via the franco kernel app it has his kernel and the one I said.
Now I have no idea which settings to choose and which are safe... can anybody help me out?

Some people should only use SR, since they do not know how to uv, and troubleshoot that by themselves.

So, what's the point OP? Wonderful chart for your own use, but does little for everyone else.

Its a reference for others, not a "guaranteed to be the best voltages" chart.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I've used these as a good reference.
The voltages have been stable on my Galaxy Nexus. They are good to reference. In most cases the most I could undervolt from these settings was 25mV. So far, I've had pretty good battery life. I'll definitely vouch for houzuoguo's spreadsheet.
Anyone have real statistics and battery readings that prove undervolting is even worth the effort?
where is the test? i dont see any testing

I'll try to do some identical real world testing with my normal usage with Smart Reflex on then with my undervolt settings. I should be able to report back in a day or two.
The Results
Okay, so here are my results:
ROM: AOKP build 36
Kernel: Franco 166
Governor: Interactive
SmartReflex enabled
CPU: 192MHz to 1036MHz
Battery: Stock 1850mAh
3G on when screen is on with occasional LTE usage. Never used WiFi.
The first 3 attachments are without undervolting.
Attachments 4-6 show my undervolting settings.
The last 3 attachments are with my undervolting settings enabled. FYI, I used the saved values for the last 3 attachments.
If anyone wants anymore information on app usage just let me know. I have a few more screenshots, but didn't feel like uploading a ton of files.
I'm not sure if these results are sound, but I just updated to AOKP build 38 and Franco Milestone 4 kernel. I'll continue to test and see if these results are consistent.
Doesn't look much of a difference with doesn't it? according to CPU Spy and screen on time, as well as looking at 384MHz and 1036MHz CPU.
Thanks for the suggestions Houzuoguo. I am running LiquidSmooth-ICS-v1.5mr1 and Franco Kernel Milestone4
I took your settings and raised them all by 25.
I used Set CPU to set them and i also set the CPU to ondemand and dropped the CPU speed to 1036.
Are you using Set CPU to do this?
My Results
Thanks you very much BrandT90!! I tried some of you settings and changed some values. It's incredible. 11 hours!!! :good:
Look at the screenshots
ROM: Paranoid Rom 2.16
Kernel: Franco Milestone 5
Governor: Ondemand
SmartReflex enabled
CPU: 230MHz to 729MHz (but I use the schedule feature in SetCPU for Apps which need more CPU)
Battery: Stock 1850mAh
I set my brightness to automatic and tweaked the settings in cm10.
3G/Wifi: Juice Defender manages them.
Without undervolting I had the same results like BrandT90. (Look at his first 3 screenshots)

Nyan Colonel was originally created for the Epic 4G as an effort to bring all of the features from other Hummingbird devices to the Epic. Now I have used my upgrade on a Galaxy Nexus and have been trying many different kernels and every one seems to have some features and be missing others. I have attempted to add as much features I can while still keeping the kernel lean and fast with great battery life. This does not require you to be some crazy linux enthusiast in order to modify, or charge you for an app capable of tuning it. It comes with the trickstermod app in order to tweak the kernel to your needs in case the preset settings don't fit your user type.
If you need help, feel free to gtalk me, I don't bite (most of the time): [email protected]

Bold = Default
CPU Governors
PegasusQ - A mix of performance and battery life that hotplugs the cpu at low use
Interactive - Boosts frequency based on load put on by the user. Modified to also boost on touch of the screen.
Ondemand - Basic scale on demand governor with no hotplugging
HotplugX - Ondemand modified to hotplug at low use and screen off
Wheatley - Basically ondemand (scales depending on demand) that is modified for performance
Lazy - Basically conservative (scales gradually depending on load) that is modified for performance
Schedulers
SIO - A mix of NOOP and Deadline made for flash memory, like the GNex has
BFQ - Currently experimental. For heavy IO load
CFQ - Attempts to distribute the disk fairly among processes
Deadline - Imposes a deadline on processes to prevent lack of resources
NOOP - Simplest scheduler. Good for flash memory.

Same here, lol I hope this kernel improves my battery life, either that or this phone battery just sucks. I miss my epic.
I initially tried the pegusus setting but my battery life was absolutely horrible, I have now switched to wheatley, which is what I have used on the kernel I was using before this one and battery life seems much better. Can anyone recommend any other settings that might help improve my battery life without killing my performance? Using wheatley on 1.3ghz max frequency with SIO.

I'm curious as to why you're even overclocked? I run 1ghz for everyday things. I'm trying to figure out which governor is best for me, pegusus sucked my battery life to, trying interactive which is met to be more geared to better battery life, I'll try wheatley next.

So, I was wondering if it is possible at all to overclock the Nexus 7 (2013). When I go to the app to overclock it (Yes, already rooted and installed busy box) I am unable to change max CPU's frequency higher than the default 1.5ghz. I also can't change the GPU's frequency over 400. Was wondering if there's like a limit to it or something. I was hoping I could overclock to 2ghz. Please help, thanks

Not to be mean or anything. But you really should not be overclocking your device at all when you don't even know what is required to over clock in the first place'. Let alone 2ghz.

Everybody has to start somewhere.
The kernel linked above should work fine. I would recommend backing up in TWRP/CWM before installing in case something goes wrong.
Why would you need to overclock this device? It already runs amazingly smooth with no lag whatsoever. What is it that you need the overclock for?

Well Beach Buggy Blitz would lag at times when there was a lot on screen (like the cave full of coins would kill my fps), This was on stock Kitkat, with custom kernels works fine with no drop in fps.
On a funny side note, cm11 runs everything lag free without needing oc or custom kernels, so maybe it's the stock kernel that's crap

I have a Nexus 7 2gen and i hace notice a frame drop playing Shadowgun Kik Kat 4.4.2. I was so frustraded that I was starting to dislike the nexus 7, but searching I found this threat and read a comment were said about installing a different kernel so I installed ElementalX 2.6, since then I haven't expirience any frame drop playing shadowgun I really enjoy it now, maybe is bad stock kernel. I hope this threat help others

The only game I've played that managed to drop my frames substantially that I would notice was Real Racing 3.
Now, I have CleanRom and ElementalX onboard but haven't played anything to test the performance. 2.1Ghz and GPU at 500Mhz.
I am currently using stock rom with elementax kernel, cpu @1,72ghz and gpu @450mhz. When i tried 2ghz oc, everything worked fine, but it got really hot while gaming. So i´m asking me how dangerous it is to use such high oc values in daily life. How much could it decrease the lifespan of the components?

We can only guess. Keep it at 2ghz, and let us know how long from now before your CPU is baked, then we'll all know for future reference.
Also there is an inductive charging coil on the inside for wireless charging some day when they come out with the chargers, sweet ****

Actually it is an underclocked snapdragon 600, but i didn't know that this cpu supports a clock speed until 1.9ghz (thought 1.7ghz would be standard clock). So i think up to 2ghz there shouldn't be any problems and it's okay for everyday use. I've also heard of some rumors that our nexus 7 2013 contains a "second choice" snapdragon 600 chipset, which didn't fullfill the predetermined requirements and that's why it was rebranded as an s4 pro... but this is really unimportant and just speculation.

omg you certainly shouldn't overclock it because the SOC architecture is designed to run at optimal clock speeds... by overclocking it, you might shorten the lifespan of your device and you might even damage it permanently as well

I've got elementalx on my nexus 7 2013 : it works perfectly on 1.7ghz... And this kernel has some cool features like double tap to wake... For the battery, you can underclock but while you overclock just a bit, the battery life will be OK
So, flash it ! ?

I didn't know there was any kind of a fuss! I think that we are all lucky in the sense that we have multiple good choices for kernels on the Nexus devices and most others in general.
It goes without saying that any custom kernel is going to give you the ability to overclock and it just boils down to what the max MHz is that any specific device can handle. Not that I've tried it but I've seen claims of 1.9 MHz and higher (ElementalX) running fine but each device is going to be different and I personally don't see the point of overclocking that high. I've had mine at 1.7 and 1.8 MHz to run some benchmarks, try different governors (elementalX & ondemand) and get an idea about battery life at those frequencies. Did all that so I can get a comparison to what I see running 1.6 MHz which is what I use everyday, that plus the gpu is set at 450 MHz while using the ondemand governor for both cpu and gpu. I do have to say that my N7 ran very well at 1.7 and 1.8 MHz but "my" goal is to get the best combination of performance and battery life, for my use. I generally see 7- 10 hrs of screen on time which includes watching video and some gaming. Not using any third party apps to control the kernel, mostly default settings when using the aroma installer, slight undervolt for 384 MHz, I don't use DT2W or S2W,. Basically... it's just too easy to install the ElementalX kernel, not worry about having to dial it in and still see a noticeable improvement in performance and battery life. No fuss, no muss!

Set each core separately = no
Max Cpu Frq = 1620Mhz
L2 cache and bus = elementalx
Undervolt = 850 min
Thermal = run hot. Mine never gets hot at 1.6 MHz and this way you don't have to worry about thermal throttling.
Max GPU = 450 MHz
Gpu governor = ondemand
i/o scheduler = deadline.
Sleep/wake settings = None
Other settings = use stock ondemand settings. enable max screen freq, enable usb fastcharge, disable magnetic screen off, disable fsysnc, all other options unchecked,
---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ----------
You can use the elementalx governor which does a great job and does improve battery life. In the other settings page leave "use ondemand governor' unchecked and check the box for "gboost." For gaming I personally like to leave mine set up with the ondemand governor, seems just a little bit smoother with less frame drops. You can try both to see which works better for you.
Thanks a lot in will let you know how it goes ....great help +1

Hmmm feels like its running hot
!PimpedOutNexus7!
Hi guys,
I understand that some heat when running resource intensive applications and games is to be expected but I believe I've passed into the danger zone, so to speak. When playing XCOM my CPU temperature quickly exceeds 80°C. From my googling on the matter I have come to assume that a temperature as high as 80°C is dangerous for the hardware of the device, but I have had trouble finding upper threshold limits for the model itself.
I guess my questions are as follows:
1) How damaging would running the CPU at 80°C for an extended duration (1hr +) be?
2) What would you consider the max acceptable CPU temperature to be?
3) Assuming it is as bad as thought, what are my options to reduce the CPU temperature, short of avoiding the problem applications? Underclocking seems to be a common suggestion, but I get the feeling that XCOM, or similarly taxing applications, may just fail to run or become incredible sluggish under such constraints.
My device is rooted and running Lean Kernel v2.4 along with the w03Slim ROM. Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2638116
I've done similar test runs in the Temasek kernel with the recommended configurations through Trickster Mod and there is no difference, the CPU still exceeds 80°C when playing XCOM. After a week or so of googling, searching the forums, and digging through device manuals I feel like I'm spinning my wheels.
Any insight or advice you all might have is greatly appreciated.
Solved!

Agree with this post, conservativex is a great governor to keep your cpu in check and not over throttle itself, also check out my thread I made here awhile back and apply the 8th post down. It really helped keep the temp down on my phone when playing graphically intensive games like dead trigger 2,riptide gp2 etc. Also if you have trickster mod or faux clock(really recommended) you can scale down your max frequency, that should really help keep it cooler and you won't see much of a performance drop (if any) while gaming or heavily using your phone.

Sounds great.. But i have a question.. Some settings are for ondemand based govs wich are unstable with kk... So would you recommend to try this with interactivex? Or wich one. TIA
