Hi, im on 8.1 and using crdroid's kernel and rom. My battery was tanking until I switched my I/o scheduler to deadline. I'm a n00b with I/o schedulers, so how does deadline work compared to the default scheduler?
Check out this link here to read up on the different Android I/O Schedulers and their differences. Deadline is a solid I/O scheduler on this phone, I used it for a while until I replaced my phone, but I'd be surprised if it made a huge difference on battery life.

Im currently running latest omgb with chads ingenious beta while using no frills cpu app. Is it better to run the stock bfq or use noop considering noop is for flash based devices?
No-op has to be the worst of all option. It's so bad, not even HTC uses it in their stock kernels. Deadline is FAR more optimized for MMC drives and devices. BFQ, depending on what you do with your device, may be quicker, may not be. CFQ isn't bad of AOSP, but displays noticeable lag on many Sense ROMs. VR.... well, good luck finding info on that one. Personally, I would stick with either BFQ or Deadline.
giving deadline a shot and seems smoother
Rock n roll. Glad to hear.
I need not only performance, but battery life as well..
i currently have my clock at 998 high and 245 low
Performance governor and cfq i/o scheduler
but i want something that wont give me ANY lag, and give me good battery life
Depends on the kernel you use but currently I'm using MikG rom with the Underworld kernel, Smartassv2 governor, and SIO i/o scheduler. That's the best set up for ME. Just change things around and see what works out best for you and the set up you have. InteractiveX and Ondemand are also good Governors and Noop and deadline are good i/o schedulers as well.
The Performance governor that you are using now will drain the battery very fast because it will keep the cpu at the 998 most of the time or whatever you Change your max to
This should help a bit.

What you think gives U best battery or performance? I am in cake kernel v.09 so in mine I have noticed I/O scheduler becomes deadline even if I select sio normally.
Which governor U like the most? smartassV2, interactiveX or performance? (I dont know why I am getting biased to Performance Day by day).
And whats the highest and lowest frequency U use? (I use 600-820MHz:silly
I have it under conservative, but whats this sio, noop, deadline, cfq, vr, bfq stuff?

Conservative is a governor and sio, noop, deadline, cfq, vr, bfq these are schedulers.
Thanks, still dont know what to pick , all the terms sounds too smart for me, so vr it is lol., but thanks for the governor explanation, was looking for that and couldn't find it.

Yeah, was wondering about the schedulers, cause I came from og droid, and it didnt have that when I ran set cpu, so thats why I was wondering what it was.

Conservative is good if u want to save battery .... interactive will eat a lil more battery but it'll provide a great UI experience... Ondemand is the best choice IMHO as for schedulers I'd recommend SIO
Hey guys. I have awful battery life on my GS3 for whatever reason, and I'm looking for a good governor to use. I'm on SlimBean and the BMS kernel, so my options are limited to the following:
Governors:
smartmax
dancedance
wheatley
badass
asswax
interactive
conservative
powersave
ondemand
performance
I/O Schedulers:
noop
deadline
row
cfq
zen
sio
fifo
sioplus
I'm looking for the best battery life possible, but still with a smooth interface. Any thoughts?
Please do some research before opening a new thread. There are plenty of threads on XDA as to what a kernel is. Also in this very forum there are plenty of helpful threads on settings.
The fact is that no 2 phones are the same, no 2 users are the same and no device will ever be used the same as another.
XDA members should do their research, read all they can and find what is best for them.
This thread will just lead to a bunch of replies as to what certain users have found to be best for them.
