I always switch between the two and i can't make my mind up what to stick with.
What do you use? And what are your opinions?

I'm using ineractive to gain more performance from my device.. I think that it has more power that ondemand ,but also drains the battery more than ondemand.
ondemand saves more battery .but also works a little bit slower compare to interactive.
This is my opinion
Interactive. Seems to save more battery.

Just curious what the difference governor settings do? Powersave vs conserative?
Smartass
ondemand
Powersave
Conservative
Performance
Power save

they change how quickly the processor cycles up and how high it goes and how long it stays there

This is a good read: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/cpu-freq/governors.txt
thanks for the link
I noticed power save makes the evo lag like crazy regardless what the cpu speed is. Conservative seems to run where power save fails. Anyone else experience major lag on power save?

Powersave sets your clock speed at the minimum, just like performance sets it at the maximum. Of course it's going to lag when your phone is running at a constant 245mhz.

Thanks! So, for power saving which gov is the best without lag? Ondemand/conservative/smartass?

Not really sure about that. I know conservative will save more over on demand, not sure about smartass. I use smartass, it's been good to me. I have great battery life and no lag, ever.

This was a great read. Thank you!
hi, I'm currently using no frills CPU to manage my CPU speed, with Virtous unity ROM, max is 1.5ghz, shall I do 1.2 ghz and leave it on demand or performance? What would use up the battery more?
also, what do the other options do apart from performance and on demand? Like interactive and conservative etc?
I currently have mine set at 1.3 (ondemand), do not choose performance it will drain the battery.

Could you explain what each governor does please, I dont know them such as interactive, conservative, etc. and which one is the most sufficient one for battery saving?

Try using search it's shouldn't be surprising that other people may have already asked this question, or if your too lazy
I was wondering what everyone uses or their min/max speeds? Ive been using the mild overclock settings with the 245/1024 setting currently, but will increasing it to say 1200mhz really hurt my battery life a lot? Will the 1200mhz speed only kick in when theres a game or something else resource intensive?
depends on your settings, try using an app like set cpu or anything that allows you to use profiles, this way you can help control battery life while still overclocking how youd like. well somewhat better control

The battery life is also rely on what governor that control the cpu.

hi all gio users which kernel is the best for gaming performance?
Phiexz Kernel is best for Gamers + it has better performance and stability.
I don't know, maybe you don't need to change kernel..
Just set CPU governor to performance when playing a game..

the performance guvernator is the worst, it keep the freq at maxim all the time that meams battery drains and sometimes instability, the best guvernators for gaming are smartassV2,ondemand,ondemandX,smoothass

But it better than jump from lowest freq to the highest suddenly, and so on.
I think it will drains battery more

here is a little good trick for you
-During the charging of the device,you can set its performance governer and play any games you want,it will gives you better gaming + battery charging
-Or when not charging,you can set its smartassv2 governer and OC him to 883MHZ and play any games you want,this should gives you less lagging in gaming and reduced your battery draining problem.
Actually, good kernel is not only fast, but smooth and stable too, i think some kernel fro phiexz is great, you can try each other.
I have flashed cm10. 1 on my n7100 and the volume is lower than i used to in the stock rom and it consume more battery any help with that

I don't think there's much you can do with regards to battery life. I've tried doing what I could to get a good battery life with CM/aosp and the best I could get was 5.5hours screen on time on lowest brightness and 12hours between charges. Compared to stock I get 7-8hours screen time and 24+hours between each charge. There's nothing much you can do with battery life.

You could flash a kernel like n.e.a.k kernel .. and download their app..
For getting a slightly better battery life, undervolt your CPU by 50-75 mV each step and you also may set the CPU ti 1.4Ghz instead of 1.6GHz
For the sound, using their app, there is an option for speakers and headphones.
Set speaker between 57 and 63(loudest) and same thing for headphones. .

Dsp manger is their app am i right cause if so i can't find that option you talked about

Even with neak kernel or redpill undervolted it still sucks at battery performance. And sometimes under clocking to 1400mhz results in graphic glitches in the UI with aosp. I think its just not designed to manage battery usage as effectively as Stock ROMs.

The problem isn't in Google .. 4.2.2 works with great battery on nexus 4 .. cm can't be like google but they are trying to make the rom as battery efficient as possible
I personally get 5-6 hours of screen time..
I get 6-8 hours on touchwiz.
No big optimizations made.. 1600 MHz and UV 50-75 .. and overclocked GPU for better rendering without UI glitches ..
Sent from my GT-N7100
Of course 4.2.2 is compatible with good battery life.
Here is attached the proof
