[Q] Best Kernel on G2 with MIUI - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trying to find out to anyone using or not using MIUI which kernel is the best for the G2, i am also trying to find out what SetCPU profiles work best with that kernel from personal experience.

Curious myself.
*bump*

I'm on the latest Pershoot and battery and performance is some much better than stock kernel. In fact, battery life is possibly better than Sense! I OC'd to 825-1497 MHz screen on and 245-368 with the screen off. I get the occasional (once in the few days I've been running the ROM) refusal to wake up, but I heard that's a bug in CM (which MIUI is based off) to do with OCing + screen on/off animations. I did, however, get tons of freezes and reboots when my maximum frequency was set at 1516MHz, which seems to be above the threshold my phone can take.
Anyway, that's my experiences, YMMV!
Hope I helped

I have been in MIUI_1.07.15_OsiMood v1.0 (just flashing to 1.2)
atleast in 1.0 FM-radio on desire z didn't work whit Streamline5 and Pershoot 2.6.35.13 kernels. on default kernel it works.
i dont think i'm going to try out those kernels in 1.2... any kernel suggestions whit smartass/conservative governors and hopefully working FM-Radio?

Which version of MIUI are your running?
I'm currently running Carpes' Miui Version, "Light Gets Lighter"
The kernel I use is Eugenes' Streamline5 Kernel which can be found here Streamline5
He has a MIUI version but for some reason doesn't run well so just download the Original.
Here is the download link if you have trouble finding it > kernel download <
As for Setcpu settings
Max/Min
Main:
1000/800, smartass
Profiles:
Screen Off: 384/245, smartass
I only find the need for a screen off profile because I like my phone kept on low hz and it's pretty much the same as battery charging profiles if you have the same hz
Its also recommended not to underclock lower then 245 as it will cause a lock up or freeze being unable to wake up due to slow processing speed
1 Day, 13 Min, 56 Seconds = 21% Battery Left

I was coming in to say just about the same thing. Funny because I'm usung the exact same SetCPU settings. Streamline5 is the absolute best way to go.

Happy to hear and yes, Streamline5 is awesome!
If Both our reviews still don't help then maybe this will. Another great thing about Streamline5 is that it will still run smooth even if you leave it clocked at just 800 alone and maybe squeeze a little more juice out .
Reason I scale it to 1000 is I like the little speed boost it gives me

Yes, got Tiamat kernel runing in my MIUI, and looks like everything is working fine, even FM-radio...
has all the necessary governors, and goes up to 2ghz

I can't get past the bootanimation after flashing streamline5 on CarpeNoctem"s miui. any help would be appreciated.
also, can I manually change the min mhz up to 245?

How do you over clock?

Does anyone know how to over clock you're DI to say 1.2? Thanks for any help.
You first need to root your phone, then install a kernel that is compatible with whatever rom you are using, then you need to install an OCing app like SetCPU and adjust accordingly.
I'm rooted running the 2.2 RUU and I have set cpu. So do I just need a kernal? Which one?
i reccomend King Kernel bfs #4, best freaken kernel ever... its located... here
so when i install this kernal is it ok to just bump the cpu speed up to 1.2? are there any guides to do this?

A lot of factors come into play when you start overclocking, every rom will respond differently.
The first thing to do before anything is to do a complete nandroid back up.
When overclocking keep in mind that the more you overclock the more chances you have of making your system unstable.
I have experimented a quite a bit and I have found that the King Kernal #4 seems to work well for me and at 1.2 it seems to be pretty stable. Any higher than that and my phone will sometimes re-boot itself for no apparent reason.
Again, your rom may handle things different so experiment and see what works best for you.
And remember - Do a complete backup first!
I'm using the number 4 kernal and it only goes to 1.19 is this what you mean by 1.2? I have to keep mine at 1.1 ghz at 1.19 my di gets unstable
Ya that's as high as they can oc these chips. I can only get to 115 safely 119 just crashes. But the charging experience will be better than stock with the BFS #4.

If you are experiencing slow wake up, try increasing the min cpu speed to something around 460. Better batt life and increased speed takes a lot of experimenting. Your OC speed might differ from others due to differences in the phones cpu. For example, I have never been able to oc to 1.19 without the phone freezing or rebooting. My phone can handle 1152 but 1113 is perfect. In my opinion, ROMs have something to due with best batt-speed combo. I am running Ruby 1.1.1 with a setcpu profile of Screen off=245 without any wake lag. Other ROMs I have tried had wake up lag at that speed profile.
My set up:
(ROM-ASOP) Ruby 1.1.1
King's #1 ASOP "I told you so"- only works with ASOP
With the ROM's "Gem" performance scaling setting off, I use setcpu to OC to 1113, min is 245. I have a profile set to SCREEN OFF = 384 max/245 min.
I haven't worried about battery life since I started using King's kernals (I've tried them all with every compatible ROM on xda). I have several posts elsewhere on XDA showing 12 plus hours on a single bump charge and heavy phone use. Good enough for me. Stock cpu speed plus Sense ROM seems slow to me now.....to each his own though.
I hope to get some help because i value the opinions of those on this forum. Currently i am running virtuous 2.7 with virt. kernal v2. I am rooted, s-off, 2.15.xx radio. I want performance without draining my battery. What are the best settings to use in setcpu?
I did try king's kernal #4, but it was rebooting. switched kernals this morning.
One other app I use in conjunction with SetCPU is MinFreeManager. This will readjust your free ram to a higher standard. But with SetCPU I have it at 1113/Ondemand with no custom profiles. One other thing I really don't set is the Set on Boot option. I don't know why but I do. So with SkyRaider Vanilla 3.0 RC3/ KingX Kernel #4/ and MinFreeManager my phone fly's. I can't say for certain what settings you need for your phone but 1113-1115 is preferred by "most" phones and keep the set on boot option off. I keep a Galaxy S live wallpaper running and pandora while browsing the web and no lag what-so-ever.
CyanogenMod 6.0.2 and KingX kernel #1 with the same setup runs almost as smooth.
Hope this helps you out.

help needed SETCPU problems

Hey guys im having trouble with my phone when setcpu is running. When ever i come out of lock screen it takes a few seconds to be able to do stuff on my phone, like its waking up from sleep. Also some times i get this message and it has to reboot.
"Sorry activity htc sense (in application HTC Sense) is not responding."
Im running the 2.6.32.15 king # 4 kernel.
My set CPU settings are on 1.15 GHz max and 460800 MHz min. Im running conservative at the moment but it does it on other scaling like performance and on demand. my setting for screen off is 460min 614 max.
Is there anything im doing wrong? or should i be using a different kernel? What kernels are the best? Thanks
I would bump up the lower end to about 600. I have have issues lower than that coming out of sleep.
im running virtuous 2.7
power saving kernel
Main Profile is 245-998 ondemand
Screen Off is 245-384 ondemand
I do not have that problem... but it would be a lie if I told you i didn't before!
I was having this problem you are talking about when my main profile was set to conservative.
EDIT: Back up your setcpu + settings in titanium... Uninstall it (or freeze it) and see if the kernel can run it just fine cause it probably will. Most kernels already have the settings for optimum performance and even the devs who make them (like hydra) say that it will work best without setcpu.
Source: http://www.hydrakernel.net/hydra_kernels_information.htm
"I recommend not using the setcpu controls or governor with these kernels. Let the stock governor do the work. If you have setcpu installed I recommend clearing out the settings before flashing the kernels. You can use it to monitor cpu speeds or an app from the market called systempanel if so desired."

[Q] Better battery life (Kernel Confusion)

Recently i've ventured into kernel threads wondering how i can get better battery life on my G2. I consider myself pretty well versed in roms but Kernels are a whole new animal for me.
I have read so many threads im becoming dizzy. If i have to flash a kernel for better battery, which one? I dont have demands for a faster phone. Most of the threads about kernels i have read are all about getting a faster clock. Im fine with the speed of my G2. I just want better battery.
Can some one provide me with some literature on the subject, point me in the right direction, or even better, answer some questions for a noob in this particular subject??
What Kernel to use?
Can i flash over CM 6.1 Stable?
Do i need to wipe before flash?
Any assistance will surely allow me to sleep better at night.
Thank you in advance.
I can tell you im running virtuous 7.2 i find pershoots kernel the best for battery.

If you want great battery life, don't use a sense rom. They're battery hogs as it is. Stay on CM 6.1 and flash pershoots latest kernel. Get setcpu and set a profile to 245/245 when the screen is off.
With these settings I get awesome battery life and I'm overclocked to 1497.

Oh ya i learned through trial and error to stay away from sense roms.
Can i ask you why you overclock? I dont find myself in any moments where i think the phone should be going faster.
I can flash pershoots over cm with no problems?
Can i get a link?
thanks for the response.
Well i lpike sense but only when its ocd sense too sluggish on stock g2 speeds. Also even with ocing and runing sense my bat last just about all day. It sometimes needs a shot a juice if im useing gps or playing a lot of games but thats it.

Decent battery life on my G2.
I'm running htc sence on mine with the pershoot kernal and cpu tuner.I have tweaked profiles and my battery life is better than b4.Example, i took it off the charger(ac) yesterday morning @ about 9:20am & today Thur, i checked the [email protected] 11:50am and my battery is only @ 40%.(1 day,3hrs & 31min's later)not bad.That's WITH moderate use.

So whats CPU Tuner? Do you have some suggestions for how to tweak the profile? Can i get a link to the pershoots thread? Is this the right thread? --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847672
Do I have to wipe before flashing and then reinstall cm over it?
When I went into SetCPU, it always kinda confused me. That could be why I was never interested in overclocking.
I realize I have a lot of questions. Im just a careful and thorough person.
Simple.
@dangabob13...Don't worry about all the questions i'd want to b super carefull as well.First, cpu tuner is a free app in the market much like set cpu except u get more options as far as customizing your profiles.Second you can find the pershoot kernel right with in rom manager.Just go to the download rom section & its the 3rd one down.I didn't wipe and i haven't had any problems.The reason i switched to the pershoot kernel was because i was having problems waking up the screen with HTC sense and the kernel it came with.This fixed the issue for me.No need to b confused it's actually pretty simple.My profiles for cpu tuner are as follows:
Under the "Current" tab: i have the governor set to "conservative" i have the cpu o.c to 1094 MHZ.No need to go crazy over clocking i find this to b fast enough for now. The rest of my profiles:under the "profiles"tab,
Performance:Ondemand-Max:1094 Ghz,Min:768Mhz.
Good:Conservative-Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz.
Normal:Conservative-Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz.
Power save:Conservative-Max:1094mhz,Min:768Mhz.
Screen off:Conservative-Max:768Mhz,Min:768Mhz.
Extreme Power save:Conservative-Max:768Mhz,Min:768Mhz.
Keep in mind i also have wifi,blutooth,sync all disabled as well.I'm not saying this is guaranteed to work for you, I'm simply stating what works for me. Good luck i hope this helps.
Quick question....doesn't CM6.1 Stable have the pershoot kernel already? Also does the Pershoot kernel the one that goes to 1.8Mhz?
Not that I'm interested in going that high, but just wondering.
I OC for games mainly, but also to watch tv and movies, the extra umph really helps. My setup on SetCPU are:
Temp>40.2*C 368 / 245 Powersave Priority 100
Screen Off 245 / 245 Powersave Priority 90
Charging/full 1497 / 245 Interactive Priority 85
Battery<10% 268 / 245 Conservative Priority 80
Battery<30% 806 / 245 Conservative Priority 70
Hope this helps.

I dont have a conservative option under the Governor dropdown. is that important. Otherwise i duplicated your settings. Boasting 27 hours of up time and 40% left is bound to make me jealous ill test it out. Thanks again.
That's strange is your cpu tuner app up to date? I also wanted to mention that my screen brightness is set to 20%,heptic feed back is turned off and so is vibration. Along with a few other battery saving options you should see a difference in battery life.Obviously results will vary.

Best SetCPU Config for Desire

Hello
Does anybody use set cpu with HTC Desire ?
I would like to know wich settings work the best for you. I am trying to get the best compromise between battery life and performance.
Thanks
128MHz - 998MHz ondemand. I get more than enough life out of it. I found that if your using AOSP and not really doing much on it like just texting or calling people, capping the max to about 600MHz or 500MHz if you want, works a dream and you get even longer out of it.
Smartass is better or worse ?
I do not see any real difference between smartass and interactive in term of battery live and performance.
On demand seems to drain slightly faster than smartass.
I set my Desire to 384-1136 with interactive govenor.
I charge it once i a day each time before I go to bed anyways (sleeping time usually23.00 - 05.00), so further battery saving is not necessary to me
Edit...my normal usages are:
Syncs (no auto sync by opening):
Friendstream 4 hrs
News 4 hrs
Weather 6 Hrs
push Yahoomail
push Googlemail
push Whatsapp
push EBuddy
Active background :
Lookout antivirus
No app killer used
Phone calls : about 1-2 hrs each day
Music listening mit DSP add-on : 4 hours
Fruit ninja (man! this is addictive!) : 1 hrs
Browsing (Dolphin HD + Android market) : 2 hrs
welll....every time I charge my battery it is about 15-25% left till out of juice...if I use my phone more than those, I have to charge it earlier (more than once a day)
245 - 985 MHz Conservative give mere 36 hours power and running smooth.

For me the battery has never lasted more than a day... Even on my un-rooted one...
BTW: Battery live depends on many things
1. Your ROM and kernel
2. Your runnning application, syncs, etc.
3. your usage and settings such as cpu freq, display brightnes, airplane mode, etc.
4. Received signal quality.
5. The condition of the battery...is it top fit for example?
It is difficult to measure the battery live.
@atuladhikari : battery live has nothing to do with rooting..

I don't like using any of the other governors since I get lag. I hate lag. OnDemand gets rid of the lag for me. I've had it before where I was using smartass and it took ~30 seconds for my screen to turn back on from idle. I wasn't too impressed.
setcpu
thanks meaple for your advice
i think that set cpu is fine on "ondemand" for some roms and for others roms no
set cpu is included on oxygen settings and running well
Cool, I need to download Setcpu
128-998 ondemand
screen off 128-384 ondemand
in call 128-384 ondemand
I get very good battery and performance with theses settings.

DidI do that?....I did.... LOL.
I used to use set cpu
set a profile like
Smartass
on charge - 1113mhz
80% - 100% - 998mhz
59% - 79% - 600mhz
35% - 58% - 500mhz
Screen Off - 300mhz
Priority was higher for lower battery %
BUT I stopped using it because of the little bugs, like when it changes to 384mhz for no reason after unlocking screen
It also affects the standard script with the rom you install, so you can never uninstall it properlu, you have to do a full wipe install and never install it, until I did that my phone was always a little laggy
I prefer my phone without it Each to their own
@shankly1985 - you didn't noticed wakeup lag with 128 MHz?
I must use 245 - x MHz to properly and fast unlock my phone.
Best Setcpu config for Desire is - no Setcpu at all.

Hello everyone, what's the most SOT you got on your sgh i747 ? I am now running official cm12.1 and the highest SOT was 3h30.
If you had more than that, please tell us how.
Cheers

I think this should've been posted in AT&T Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting.
Any-who, I can't even get 3 hrs of SOT but battery can easily last ~30hrs of deep-sleep/light usage. I'd love to know a fix T.T
The most I've gotten was 4 hrs SOT using the S3Rx ROM a long time ago.
Flashed the 5.1.1 OctOs-OctL M4 rom with latest regular DKP kernel and pico GApps, and got the black-out theme from playstore: Intellidemand governer and zen schedueler; read ahead set to 1024 for internal and external; westwood tcp congestion, undervolted -100mv across the board, simple GPU algorithm from faux, gpu voltage intact, underclocked to max freq 1242mhz. ~10% battery for every ~40-ish minutes of youtube. adaptive brightness; stock battery, NJ2 modem.

Whoa! Thanks for sharing your settings. I'm on OctOs too!
@canodroid15, have you been able to get results like this? I know you also tweak your kernel a bit on OctOs.
Some stuff I missed in the first post: GPU gov is "simple," along with faux's simple algorithm, KSM(?) Is disabled (the option where it takes less CPU, not sure if that was enable or disable) GPU clock is 480, read ahead was actually 2048 for ext and int. Screen timeout is 30 seconds, live display is set to automatic. Results: (lots of WiFi, YouTube, and general browsing/messaging. Little to no data/GPS usage, sync is off, greenify stuff)
By this day I'm able to acquire such sot on Mokee rom. It's quite fast. But unstable. Self reboots on typing and calls.
Is OctOs rly stable to be daily driver?

OctOs is good for a daily driver, but I heard that bluetooth is no good on M4. You have to update to the latest weekly of OctOS to fix that. I think the weeklies are stable in that regard. I've been playing around with the CyanogenMod With a Twist by matrixzone; using the deathly kernel. Getting really good results with that too. Some more tweaking, and I'm confident that I'll hit the 4 hrs of SOT.

I've been playing around with the CyanogenMod With a Twist by matrixzone; using the deathly kernel. Getting really good results with that too. Some more tweaking, and I'm confident that I'll hit the 4 hrs of SOT.

Yes, the latest weeklies are extremely stable and much preferred over the M4 release.

Yay. I'm enjoying it right now. But I've found a bit of bug for me. I'm unable to switch network operator. It just gives me an error. I need it to use 3g cos my operator uses roaming with other one for 3g... Yay, it's Ukraine Bros.

Bug confirmed!
You might want to report that to the devs at OctOS. Anyone else got some crafty stuff for SOT? Here's what I got so far:
ROM: matrixzone's CM OS with a twist (7/21)
GApps: PA modular Pico universal
Kernel Auditor settings:
CPU:
max clock @1242mhz
Interactive gov
Multi-core power saving set to aggressive
-75Mv across the board for voltage
Disable MPDecision and enable Intelliplug with Eco Performance profile
486 max freq for screen off
I/O:
Tripndroid schedueler
int read ahead set to 2048
ext read ahead 1024, and bfq sched
Misc:
Disable KSM (optional)
Westwood tcp congestion.
As always, disable sound and vibrations on touches, adaptive brightness, Greenify with root. Oh, and chummy dev team's Black-out theme
I'm playing with dkp kernel, and such pretty stuff..
I'll attach screenshot to this post after uni. There are will be different settings than previous in this thread.
So here is result of heavy use when 50%+ of brightness when playing MMO and mostly surfing via chrome. OctOs last nightly. With last dkp. From 04.10
Min mhz 54, max 1026.
Multicore PS aggressive.
Freelunch gov.
Undervolting - 25 each freq.
GPU to 300 mhz with simple algorithm by faux.
Laziness to 1.
Ramp threshold to 8.
All other is like listed some posts before mine.
I think you can get up to 5 hrs with moderate use. I'll try tomorrow.
@SirLaughsalot, thanks for sharing your settings!
CAUTION: Excessive moisture may develope in your pants. Keep the tissues handy.
Crazy sh** coming soon. Stay tuned peeps
EDIT: Hold on to your butts people. This one's gonna take a while .
FIRST AND FOREMOST: THE RESULTS
Everything about my phone's hardware is stock, other than protective casing. Stock 2100mAh battery. It went through two full charge cycles before this, and charging was done %0 to %100 when the phone was turned off. Everything you see below is real. I sh** you not. No point in making stuff up. An important thing to note is that these settings are not keeping gamers in mind. Simple users who are willing to sacrifice 720p video streaming (videos are laggy @720p. Happens to me on every LP rom.) will find these settings useful.
1. Scenario one: Normal college day. Phone taken off charge at 7:30 am. Full brightness til ~5pm. Battery lasted well over 12 hours. Battery finally ran out because I forcefully drained it by watching a few episodes of a show via firefox. At standby, I am very confident in it lasting well over a day or two.
2. Scenario two: Non-stop screen-on the moment I took the phone off charge. Started a youtube video (all cutscenes from the game Asura's Wrath; ~5 hrs long @480p) using youtube app, volume with speakers, lowest brightness the whole time. Mt. Everest was toppled by my crotch after I saw these results.
Yep. 7 hrs of screen on time. Again, I'm not here to troll. I have better things to do (like tweaking my phone ).
Here are the long awaited settings (first system settings, then Kernel Auditor):
THE ROM/GAPPS:
ROM: Latest BrokenOS (v3.9) taken from their G+ page.
GApps: tk modular PICO universal
Flashing method: Latest TWRP, first wiped everything in advanced wipe options except for ext sd and usb-otg. Then I formatted data, and hit factory reset. After that, I rebooted the recovery via reboot options in twrp, and selected the flashing order as follows (flashing from ext SD card, btw): ROM, GApps, SuperSU. Reboot once done.
SYSTEM SETTINGS
.25x animation speed in dev options, "faster than light" animations speed in Nova launcher settings.
Sync is off, mobile data is off unless necessary; same goes for WiFi.
Applied "Pitch Black Free" layers via built-in Layers Manager.
Adaptive screen brightness, Livedisplay set to automatic, Screen time-out set to 30 seconds. Daydream is set to off. Ambient display is off.
Hardware buttons backlight set to 1 second timeout. Disabled on screen nav-bar by going into settings>broken pieces>navigation>0dp nav bar height. Disabled Broken recents menu (using stock recents menu for convenience).
Disabled NFC, Hotspot search, and Location.
Dark material keyboard found in settings>language and input>android keyboard (AOSP)>appearance and layouts
Backup and reset is off.
Vibrate on touch disabled for the keyboard.
Dial pad tones, Screen locking Sounds, Touch Sounds, Vibrate on Touch are all diabled under "other sounds" found in settings>Sound and Notification.
Adaway is installed and running
Greenify installed and running. Do NOT greenify AdAway and Pitch Black. Wakelock detector should be left alone too, if you have that installed as well
Brightness usually kept at minimum via quick settings slider bar.
Uninstalled Amaze, Browser, and Email via built in system app uninstall tool. Replaced them with inbox, firefox, and ES File explorer. This is a personal preference, and not really necessary.
Kernel Auditor Settings:
CPU:
Frequencies: 1134 max, 384 min.
Governor: darkness
leave everything else stock.
CPU Voltage
MAY NOT WORK ON EVERY PHONE. Proceed at your own risk. Be sure APPLY ON BOOT is DISABLED

Kernel Samperage Merging
disable KSM (you choice on this one)
Misc Controls

Well, There you have it. I hope this helps you lot, @sjamie , @#000000 , @youssefkr . Be sure to hit thanks, and if you can; SAY NO TO WINDOWS: http://www.linuxmint.com/, as well as https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/mint-cinnamon-first Be sure you get the Cinammon edition if your computer can run Windows 7 and above. Second URL follows Cinammon, but the same site has the same guide designed for other distributions as well.
That's all for now folks. Cheers!

Whoa! You guys have some amazing battery life. The max I have gotten was about 12 hours of use and 2 hours of screen on time. Of course I dont really mess with the frequency and volts. I just like it stock.
