Best kernel to OC to 1.5GHz on CM6?

Looking for some battery life here. What would you recommend?
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk

Honestly, with the stock CM kernel I stretch out 18 hours easily with heavy usage (non-stop texting )
That is of course with NO profiles @ 806 MHz using the ondemand governor. If I need more power I just simply crank up the processor, no need to stay OCed all the time
With that said, 806 MHz is perfect, I experience no lag at all. So there really is no need to stay OCed at 1.5MHz unless you want to kill your battery
Hehe, I actually love you for UPGRADING from a crap NS to a G2

I got some lag on ADW EX at the stock speed, so I decided to melt it away with buttery OC goodness. I'll actually see how it lasts today, and if it's killing me I'll try clocking down until I get something acceptable. I was just wondering if there were any especially good UV kernels or anything of the like.

What kernel did you end up going with?
I use pershoot's kernel and get pretty good battery life for being overclocked at 1.5ghz.

Is the one on ROM Manager compatible with CM6?

Overclocking

I would like to overclock my Dinc, I'm currently running skyraider 4.0 and have the stock kernel running right now. I wouldn't mind upgrading to a new kernel.. but all the ones I see give you about a 100Mhz overclock. This would be fine.. however I'm wondering if I could overclock to a potentially more unstable speed for a minimal amount of time.. are there any kernels that allow this? Also, what kernel would you recommend?
Thanks,

No kenel that i've seen on the inc have surpassed the clock speed of 1.2 ghz so no.

Alright thanks.

oc evo

Hey guys is it safe to use set cpu to oc evo? or what app would you recommend?

I use set CPU and it is safe to a certain point. If you overclock to far your phone will lock up and you will have to pull the battery. You have to experiment to see how far u can go. My phone is stable as a rock at 1152 MHz but gets llocked up at 1190 MHz so like i said experiement with it

614 mhz is the new OC! Try over clocking for sure but you see more profitable results under clocking. I do however use set cpu to OC when I am charging

Fellas,im looking to use SetCPU to OC my evo,i need a custom kernel i assume.two questions.
1.can i flash a custom kernel using the mount/unmount zip in recovery for my GodMode Synergy?
2.What Are Good Values,im trying to safely underclock to save battery life.

@gotheart, I strongly suggest freedom kernel by Lithid. There are bugs as it is in beta stage but he is an amazing developer and will implement an incredible kernel. He has one specifically for godmode so make sure you get that. He has versions that underVOLT the processor, using less battery. Though I would be cautious as some phones become very unstable with these changes.
Underclocking for CPU is variable... I like 614 MHz, some choose to go lower. I have noticed Sense ROMs (like synergy) are a bit more touchy with performance tweaks. For me, even in hot weather I need to bump my settings up, as my phone can't keep up with the heat.

Thanks so much man.i was a dev at one point..but i dunno jack about clocking cpu.lol.so youre saying 614,as in set the max value to 614 correct?and i sure will check out that kernel

I use 128 min and 614 Max. Depending on my use, and how often I'm flashing, I can get about 20 solid hours

im using 128 MHz and 614MHz with the smartass governor.. runs really good

My best battery life is on AOSP ROM's with this set up on tiamat kernel.

Ill also note a program i purchased,was cpu master by antutu inc.
Pretty much similar to setcpu.
Has profile options etc.

where can I get a governor dowload

Hello,
I used the search tool. But couldn't find a download link.
I'll appreciate it if someone will be kind enough, to post a download link for a governor, like smartass. every know and then I read feedback about it .
I want to try it
thanks

Try eugene373 kernels.

Governors are not mods that you can download. They're inherently built into the kernel that you're using. Eugene has smartass built into his streamline kernel, as does synergy. Although I definitely do not recommend using smartass, it doesn't play well with our chipset. Usually after locking and unlocking the screen, it'll stick at max frequency

yes, you are correct, the black edition remake rom came with the synergy kernel, I saw the smartass governor when I open the setcpu app.
But I don't know what happened the smartass governor is now gone! I reinstalled the black edition rom, Hoping to get the smartass back, unfortunately,I still do not get back the smartass governor that came with the synergy kernel. I don't know how to get it back.
I instead flashed the darksideX kernel, it is much smoother, do you know if the darkside X kernel has an update?

Nope, the only updated one is included in his own ROM and can't be found anywhere else.

The reason the smartass governor disappeared is because black edition has been updated to ics and currently there is only one kernel that is compatible with ics and it's the leaked at&t kernel which does not support smartass. If you're on a gingerbread ROM you can just install the synergy kernel to get it back. But like I said, smartass doesn't work for our phones so I don't know why you're so determined to try it

i saw this happening with other governors based on smartass as well.
as far as i know, synergey and streamline have the most supported governors.

Yeah savagedzen and brazilianwax are both based on smartass and don't work either

Yea, unfortunately Smartass gov is not compatible with our hardware, there are no fixes for this. Faux tried to get this to work ad-nauseam a few months ago.

GPU overclocking kernel request

Found this in another forum. Wanted to get exposure to the possibility.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087853&postcount=2
From another poster: He references using "siyah" kernel in his S3, which appears to be an international version with the same processor as we have. He indicates the need for "stweaks". He talks about GPU "steppings" so I'm not sure if Andrielux has changed these in his kernel. I installed the app "stweaks" but it wouldn't load as it said "no kernel support".
Wow!!! What in the world. Is this for real? I wonder how stable it is. From 440 up to 800?! They are using some app called Stweaks (and the kernel of course) to do it. Love to see that on our Note 2.
And since it seems that the GPU wasn't changed much....from the Galaxy s2 series... "700 Mhz - 1100 mv" is only 75mv higher than the stock 440...and accoring to the forums stable. A 70% increase in speed and stable. This is a must have for any newer kernels.

His kernel does have it. Read the n7100 thread for directions

"his kernel". Can you be more specific? Do you have a link to this kernel that we can use on the Sprint GSNII that supports GPU OC?

It's about 1/3 the way down the OP with a beige arrow and a GPU frequency table. The few paragraphs below explain how to overclock the GPU via adb/terminal.
** Edit: AndreiLux just posted a new update which includes STweaks support.

Perseus kernel supports GPU overclocking now using STweaks. And it FLIES. Wow.

Stweaks slow overclocking but if you OC it by 100mhz laugh amd giggles numbers. What kind of actual gpu performance are you getting. I see with.stock better real life performance.during.gaming versus his kernel. So if I were to oc just to match stock is pointless to me.
why overheat the gpu when I can get the same performance on stock kernel.
It has to be the way he has it coded. Till it matches stock and further progress dev for it ill step in. I do appreciate his work and time. But for me I need something better than stock. I got this phone for a reason haha.

What kind of performance? I beat the Nexus 4 as the highest rating 3D for a GPU in the market on Antutu. And it's noticeably different. Fun for extrme gaming I guess. But it affect the entire speed of the phone too.
Did you try it yet? The kernel is EXCELLENT. Going to donate from my next paycheck to dev. Thanks again.

NFSMW, GTA 3, Heavy Gaming. I noticed it was bleh on the kernel. And stock was virtually amazing no fps in fps either even during benchmark. On his kernel the 3d test for quadrant ghe fps dipped below than 58 which was consistent on stock

Strange! I'm on Project ROM Ultra lite 1.2. Have you tried N.E.A.K? He said his kernel is set to 700mhz already (no need for STweaks). Can you test that one?

Why would I need a kernel to overclock the gpu to match stock gpu clock from stock kernel to get same performance performance. Neak is on the s3 not Note 2 unless he or it in that Rom but still.
I want a custom kernel that can match the GPU performance on the stock kernel without the need of overclocking

Should we test it? I asked him if it will work on the Sprint version of the Note 2. I can't imagine why it would not.

FYI, STweaks is working for the Perseus kernel as of build 27. My GPU is currently at 733Mhz and I've undervolted all settings by 25 - no issues.

Yep. Seems like a very stable kernel to me. But the guy above is saying that the kernel has low framerates compared to stock. I am hoping he will test the Neak kernel out.

Sorry but I will not ill be sticking to stock maybe in the future. That kernel seems weird not sure which to choose. And like I said, I don't see the point of downloading a kernel know that will I will basically need to overclock the gpu just to get the same performance as I would on the stock kernel.
