[Q]frequency? - Acer Iconia Tab A100

If you were on a completely stock experience, what is the lowest frequency that ACER had programmed into their kernel?
I ask because supposedly using custom kernels allows you to let the tab go lower than the stock kernel during sleep.
Also, is there a difference between sleep and deep sleep?
Is there a way to lock tablet out of deep sleep?
Does anyone experience SODs using piomasaki's CPU sleeper script?
Thanks guys.
If this has been Q&A'd I do apologize, the mobile app did not return a thread upon searching.

The lowest is that 246 or whatever setting in all kernels.
Keep tab awake during charging stopped my g2x from sod, may help your a100. Also try different governors.
Never a sod, period.

I'm even on a fresh setup and cannot get SODs to stop for some reason. I thought maybe 216mhz was a kernel specific step.
I stopped using SeTCPU profiles, started using AnTuTu CPU master pro and still can't get them to stop. Driving me nuts!

Because its a tegra2 flaw, some devices have it others don't. My g2x had it my a100 and thrive don't. You can also try running the 300 whatever as min, may help too.

Thats what I am testing now. Lol
I notice that killing Wifi via AP mode when I know tablet is going to sleep has decreased the amount of SODs.
Hell, when we were on IRC and i was playing with goddroid, i got a SOD on first boot, where we wait ten min while dalvik is building.
So at that time i had no cpu management apps installed.
Its gotta be my tablets hardware then.

Could be, I remember on a A500 forums of people complaining about SODs left right and center, but many people saying that they never once got them, myself included despite flashing about 20 different ROMs on it. So far I think I'm SOD free on my A100 too, just flashed WDS's JB last night.

Yeah my a100 never did it, on its original mobo and on its replacement after the brick. It still hasn't with its new owner (brother in law's gf owns it now). Piece of xda history being used at 2% of its ability rofl.

Same here too, I've never had a SOD on my A100.

It's gotta be something in my software, I'm assuming that anyways.
I did take a small trip not to long ago and brought my tablet with me and it did not SOD for once.
Wifi was off, using CPU Master Pro, with lulzactive and SIO.
Screen off profile is disabled.
Do you think disabling the lock screen can cause an issue with it?
I didn't know if that could cause an issue or not.

STOP USING PROFILES! Duh! The lulzactive kernel does not need profiles. There's the lulzactive app to tweak it. Use that.

What am I doing wrong? Battery life from hell.

Well I'm using juice defender I have it on custom with basically everything checked. It claims I'm at 1.75x battery. I'm on Aokp with faux 10r2 kernel. I'm at 1.06 ghz interactive. I'm now under 50% battery with barely an hour screen time and like three hours phone on. What am I doing wrong this has never been so bad.

Try franco kernel build #11...works great for most...im averaging 18hrs with 3hrs of screen time (all this with a stock battery)
Sounds good but I thought his and faux kernels were basically the same but faux gets better battery?. I've noticed my phone doesn't ever really deep sleep either.

Quick question regarding the Franco Kernel...
Today I flashed to the latest version along with AOKP - seemed to be a good mix till I went to make a call and realized any call I made/received dropped in a matter of 3 seconds lol...
Does that sound like a kernel issue or possibly the rom? I had enabled power saver so wasn't sure if that may have done something...
Are you on a cdma or GSM phone? I have this combo on cdma and I'm fine...

constantly running app is not useful at all. It may drain your battery
Don't worry man I'm patient. Go into your settings for the phone. So for stock aokp go into the app drawer and go to the settings "app" the first thing on that list is rom control. The second to last thing in from control is performance settings.

[Power Cycling] Sprint + AOKP + Trinity

Hello fellow nexus users! I need help with narrowing down what might be wrong with my device. I'm on aokp m5 with trinity kernel and my gnex has been rebooting and freezing repeatedly. Can anyone else vouch for this setup? I'm an avid from flasher. I format system data cache before every new ron and permissions have been fixed.
I mainly need to find out if this is a software or hardware failure so I can swap out my phone if needed .
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Try another kernel? .. if all else fails, flash back to stock and try it for a couple hours. It's most likely kernel related.
I'd recommend using Franco. Make sure you aren't undervolting / OCing to high amounts.
Every phone is different. Done don't play well with a particular kernel. Try a different one and see what happens.

Sounds like your voltage is too low. Bump them up 25
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Well I undervolted it fairly well five days ago with the Franco kernel. After going to Trinity I noticed the constant rebooting. I bumped all voltages about 50mv and its been okay for the last 3 hours. I'm guessing Franco supports more undervolting than the trinity kernel.
Thank you for all the tips comrades!

Update: I'm still getting repetative freezing with aokp m5 and both the trinity and Franco kernel with stock voltages on both. Could aokp be causing so much freezing and crashing? Generally it tends to happen when I wake the screen after a long time of being off in my pocket.

I dont believe its AOKP, like mentioned earlier flash back to stock and see if it is a hardware issue.
It turned out to be a screen off profile. I had it set to go to hotplug governor at minimum frequency and it would make my phone crash when it woke from deep sleep. Using the trinity toolbox is a lot better and my phone is fine now!

I had same problem. For me the fix was getting LeanKernel 2.0.
4 hrs screen on time! Its the best for my phone. Since all kernels are device specific it might not be best for you.
To get it go to T-Mobile gs3 go to original dev and download lean kernel 2.0. Make sure its 2.0.
T-Mobile and AT&T work the same. If you use one of the other 4.2 ROMs on here I think Liquid smooth it comes with Lean kernel pre installed.

If that kernel doesnt work for you, you can always try Ktoonsez kernel here:

But for me personally, his kernel and the stock kernel that comes with Task's ROM always make my phone hot and battery drains faster. But many people report those kernels work great for them.

The same thing happens to me. It's not really hot, it's just kind of warm. It only happens when I'm using the phone, when it's locked it sleeps just fine and keeps cool. Otherwise it heats up and drains my battery in the process. CPU Spy shows my clock speed switches between 384Mhz and 1.5 Ghz depending on what I'm doing. My CPU usage isn't consistently high, even if its at 10% it still does it, seems quite normal. I can turn off data, wifi, bluetooth, and location services, doesn't help at all. I've tried resetting my battery stats, where I charged to 100%, cleared stats, depleted fully, then charged too 100% fully. No different. The heat comes from the bottom of the phone, maybe closer to the right side about an inch from the bottom, it is not coming from the battery. My battery usage shows high usage on the Media process or the Android System process. Ending either of them does not help, so I'm assuming they aren't actually using the battery like it says they are.
I'm running Liquid Smooth 4.2 beta 2, same as OP, with leankernel 2.2. It does the same thing with KT kernel, I've tried undervolting but it persists. I've also had this issue running slimbean, Liquidsmooth RC8, and RC9. My battery was pretty good when I used to run stock, and it was absolutely amazing when I ran LiquidSmooth RC3 and RC5.

please close
Btw alcohol was used to create this. Might be flammable.
Awesome, is there a slight rundown of what this has to offer over stock?
well, it may or may not be faster/more battery life. its a test kernel to find build method and make sure things are going to work before putting 1000s of lines of code changes in
Sounds good. Flashing now, will test as much as I can.

So far it seems to be running well. Run Quadrant and it is using Eco mode as my scores varied by 2000. Don't care about scores just the feel.
The governor is ondemand and uses 1134 alot more. Which is nice not seeing 1512 mostly so battery should be better.
Do have a question though. Do you want us to test different governors? If so, what's the preferred program?
Thanks joker!! It's great to finally have a kernel to play with!!
edit. Decided to use Set CPU. Seems to be working fine. I take that back about using 1134. Guess it just happened to be the speed of choice by what I was running. Still mostly 384 and 1512. And of course Deep sleep
This has worked fine in my testing Bluetooth steaming and calls work without issue. Camera works so does WiFi. I still see the msm host wake lock but it's not that high. Got 20 thousand in antutu so it seems to work without issue.

Hot and rooted

Title says it all. If I root my S3, it heats up to uncomfortable temperatures. If it's on stock, it runs nice and cool. Battery doesn't seem to be affected by this new heat.

My friends S3 used to get really hot and he wasn't rooted. I turned off his location service and no more heat. I presume the heat is coming from something that's running in the background. What rooting method are you using? Also you said you've tried ROMs and kernels. Is the heat coming from rooted stock or only when you switch to another ROM and/or kernel?

My friends S3 used to get really hot and he wasn't rooted. I turned off his location service and no more heat. I presume the heat is coming from something that's running in the background. What rooting method are you using? Also you said you've tried ROMs and kernels. Is the heat coming from rooted stock or only when you switch to another ROM and/or kernel?

Location services off. Battery stats say screen takes up most of battery(normal for s3.) I used teamwin root from recovery. Anything other than full stock. Includes rooted stock and custom ROMs/kernels.

Rooting would not cause any extra heating to occur lol
Give these a try. Better Battery Stats will determine if there's a wakelock not letting your phone truly sleep. And CPU Spy will let you know if your phone is getting stuck at any mhz or if it's sleeping.

Which stats from BBS do you want? There are many sections.

If it's during use then CPU states. It might be running at higher mhz during use causing the heat problem.

Alright will share CPU stats by end of the day. I'm pretty sure that's the problem.

Ya I think my phone always runs at high frequencies. I used performance control to get this. Whenever I touch the screen or do anything, the clock speed jumps up to 1.5Ghz. My governer is interactive.

that's what it's supposed to do. part of the "project butter" tweaks for jelly bean included this type of CPU jump when performing a task. that instant jolt to the maximum device GHz helps make doing everything on the phone more fluid/fast.
to get better battery on your device and troubleshoot whether this feature is hurting you specifically more than helping, feel free to adjust your max speed. start low, at say 1GHz, then bump it up a hundred at a time to find out where your phone is the most comfortable.

Can we maybe explain it as having a device that just run's hot ? It was my first inclination.
OP, maybe I glanced over it at first but you stated you have used many rom's and kernels and got the exact same response on all the ones you used ?
Did you you try going back to stock rooted and seeing how it was from there ? A completely clean slate might be your best idea. The only way a device will get hot is is more power is being used to keep the processor at higher temperatures. There really isn't any other way or than faulty hardware issue.

Guess project butter has a high pricetag. Are there any governers that don't do this? Or is this unpreventable?

its not a price tag. its a script set to take advantage and make the most of the hardware on your phone. as soon as the task has begun, the CPU speed drops immediately.
see above post by hednik. i lean towards his thinking on this

I almost always use ondemand governor. In my humble opinion nearly all the other ones are inefficient or just placebo's. My phone runs streaming radio 4-5 hours a days on LTE and it never gets hot. Stays at around 918mhz at the highest. There a few bugs in 4.1.1 like the media server scanning where it will constantly scan your media because of a bad file.
Odin stock rooted 4.1.1 and then see how it goes. Factory reset it and erase /data or move to to pc or ex sd card. Won't take long and if it still does it I can't see what it would be.
