Cpu battery saving Freq? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I am wanting to see the best cpu app for tuning plus what governor is best. All for the sake of battery save. Thanks I appreciate.

"For the sake of battery save", powersave is the best governor. And you hopefully just understood why questions like these are frowned upon.

i've messed around with ondemand and powersave, problem is whatever program/app u use will change the values but simply wont stick as theres something forcing the cores to jump to max freq when under load
so i quit and am waiting on a kernel or rom that will allow this type of customization.

But that's the thing if you read the other reply you will then see why I asked. Since there seems to be that the root cpu commands doubt stick and get overidden

try use 3C Toolbox
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.at.free&hl=en
this app can control frequency and governor for each core. use it on my late z1 compact. i havent root my g4 yet.
but speaking of battery saving, I dont see any big difference compared to untouched processor frequency/governor.
for underclocking the frequency, I can see theres no overheating issue on the phone (when heavy gaming or heavy photography, the phone will still heat up but not too much)
I believe custom kernel will help much in terms of battery saving.
you wont see much different with stock kernel tweaking. imo

@negeri: and, moreover, tweaking (customization+ powersaving) seems to kill the battery life.
Have to flash the new 10e and Xposed framework, I won't try to optimize things as all I get is a slow and laggy device.

I see.

Haha sure thing. Now everything's fine, I bet ot was a mistake to install Gravitybox + XuiMod.

What has helped was putting min freq to lowest and leaving highest in Max and setting on interactive.

overclocking dhd

I have recently rooted my dhd and currently running CM7. Using the cpu setting within the performance menu I am wondering what peoples thoughts are on a noticeable but safe increase of cpu speed. its set as 1017MHz which i believe is default. I am told I can run anything up to 1500 safely. can anyone confirm this and also tell me what kind of result (performance and battery life) i should expect.
thanks
Well, I use Android Revolution HD (a sense rom, meaning heavy UI!) and i overclock to about 1.3GHz. In terms of battery life when it's awake, it seems a drain a teeny bit more readily, but I've never had a freeze on sense (quite rare)
On stock it underclocks to let the processor max at around 400MHz when the screens off, so that helps to really save a lot of battery on standby. On CM, I'd expect it'd feel more or less the same in terms of performance after you hit 1.2/1.3GHz

thanks for the reply mate. going to try out revolution HD soon i think. have you overclocked using a third party app or is there one built into that rom?
also im a little confused by the governors. 'on demand' is the default governor. Does that mean it will only use the max selected cpu speed when necessary? would you recommend using a difference setting?
cheers

The CPU is managed by the ROM itself. You can tweak it yourself by using setCPU (or similar), but I can advise you not to. Can't help you with the governors buddy, since I dunno what it is

Lucky you picked a linuxhead!
The system itself has a daemon (background process built into the system) that handles overclocking. It's all explained on the page and also on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14638641&postcount=34279
You can use another app (like SetCPU) but the daemon usually handles screen off's quicker. The governors basically determine how the processor frequency is changed. I'll explain the common ones:
Performance - Runs at highest speed, so if you have a range of 200 to 1.3G, it'll stay at 1.3G all the time, not usually the best
Ondemand - The universal default for phone overclocking, it only changes the speed up after a certain percentage of the CPU is used, and it switches on the fly, so if the CPU is used too much at 400MHz, it'll ramp it up to maybe 600 or 800, and if it's still overused, it'll put it up to maybe 1 or 1.2G
Conservative - This is like ondemand, except it makes the changes more gradual. It can give noticable lags in the foreground at times, so this is mainly used when the phone is asleep (screen off)
Smartass - This governor is like ondemand, except it'll less readily switch frequencies to higher values when it detects the screen off. This isn't really used because the overclocking daemons take into account the phone being awake or not
Basically, there isn't really a need to change governors, only really frequencies if anything. The thread, however, does tell you how to change governors.
Im using latest LeeDroid GB 3.2.1 and to be honest with the work he's done with the Kernal (3.1.8BFS) I have found that the ROM is a lot MORE responsive without me overclocking the CPU.
Im not really sure how it all works, but I guess doing this on different ROMS has its own different out comes.
overclocking has me confused too, is there really that much of a benefit in it? how much will i gain from it?

There is a benefit when you use certain apps, or even sense itself. For example, I've never had sense ui freeze, or go slow. The under clocking helps to improve the rubbish battery life when your phone is asleep.
In terms of measuring the gain, I have no idea. Really, I'd think you could use a process heavy app, or benchmarking app and see.
There's also loads of guides on overclocking to help out! (that's how I got the hang of it! )

For the need on OC, it depends on the kind of apps u're using. If u're happy w a non OC DHD, its totally up to u.
But for the UC, it works as a terrific battery saver, mich better/effective than other battery saver soln on market
The safe range depends on the DHD as the manufacturing changed even though same part, i'm OC 1.5GHz "On Demand" profile and under clock 245MHz on screen off "Power Save" profile.

Why is the default voltage so damn high?

I get having it be higher than necessary to avoid bugs... but the 153mhz CORE slot can go to 90mV down from 8-900. That's 1/10th of the original voltage. Why would Google/Samsung ship it using so much more than what it needs?

Those are MAX voltages...and I call hogwash on the 90mV, unless you are disabling smart reflex. Then I would want to see some actual proof.
Lower than 70mV is unstable. I didn't disable smartreflex, but even if I do it makes no difference. Maybe someone else can share their lowest voltage for this. I'm sure I'm undervolting it as it becomes quite unstable if I input 60mV, so obviously something's happening.
Yes, they're max voltages, but even with SR it doesn't go below 886 or something.
I find that tough to swallow. Did you actually verify the voltage with a kernel log?
What's the easiest way to do that? I'd like to confirm it myself. Like I said, I know it's doing something because at 50-60mV there are instant issues.

You have to disable smart reflex for your voltage settings to work. It isn't going down to 90mv. Disable smart reflex and then set that, I doubt your phone will run.
Voltage Nominal=75000, Calib=75---, margin=38000
Seems to be the most relevant. And yeah, I've got it at 75 right now.
And I've disabled SR as well, it doesn't change anything. And the voltage settings definitely do work witohut disabling it as, like I said, going too far down will cause a crash. So obviously it's doing something.
Have you guys tried undervolting that far?
And I'm doing this with franco kernel updater. The widget is showing the Core voltage to be 75.

thats 900mV and 750mV. and there is a large variation between individual devices. some can handle much less and some cant handle a tiny bit less. but undervolting too much will end up using more battery to achieve what it needs to achieve from working longer/harder to get there. 90mV without or even with smart relex will cause your phone to freeze then reboot.

Why? I know that underclocking would do this - the time to finish a task at a lower clockspeed is longer.
I don't see how lowering the mV can possibly increase battery usage.

anyways, i dont know what that app is reporting, but franco kernel can only be set to a minimum of 830mV. looks like a mistake or a bug in his app. im gonna email him.. https://bitbucket.org/franciscofran...e9aa9b26/arch/arm/mach-omap2/voltage.h#cl-184
It seems functional... I mean, clearly the GPU is working (and at that voltage according to the app) because the screen is on/ not artifacting.
Is it just incorrectly reporting it? Is there another way to confirm it? Dmesg was not clear.

So what is it actually setting it to? Because if I set it *too* low it still does give me errors... so how can it be both?

i think it gets set to 830. i let francisco know, we'll see what he says.
Alright. It's just weird. Because if anything under 830 is setting it to 830, and 830 is stable (because 95 shows stable) than how would 830 be unstable when the UI shows it as 40.
I mean, 90mV is kinda insane. It would definitely make sense if it were more like 830. It's just confusing.
Hopefully francisco can explain.

Hmm, then why does setting an absurd voltage like 200mV cause an instant reboot while I can set it to 830mV and it runs fine?

Yeah I can set it to 830mV and it runes fine. No issues until I drop to 60mV. I haven't reached a limit for any of them.

Understanding Performance Settings

Hey everybody, so I'm a pretty huge noob when it comes to performance settings. I only recently read through the Understanding CPU Governors thread, and I get that part pretty well. I just flash the new AOKP rom for Primo C, and decided to go with the Scary gov. What I don't understand is what the heck is the io scheduler, and how to use it. Also, what are some optimal min/max MHz settings for the One V?
I chose Scary for battery life, not so much for performance. I don't need a high performing phone, but I do want my battery to last those extra few hours. If someone could give me some feedback on how to use this stuff, I'd really appreciate it, so that I could quit asking every few months.
Thanks.
Min try not setting below 250mhz and max 1450 please dont oc it above that ur motherboard will fry...and if u want high performance install,a custom rom and kernel, if u oc.it u will get high performance but low battery....and vice versa....
Hope u understood click thanks if it helped,

The I/O scheduler is reponsible for how data is "transfered" from storage
This includes when it will be written back if dirty a.s.o
So it influences the I/O performance.
Actually the default deadline is a good choice to use

[Q] What is Intelli-plug, MP-decision. Which is best?

Hi guys,
I'm new to android and I just flash a cook rom with custom kernel to my phone.
I use Kernel Tweaker to set some variable to make it use less battery and smoothly but I see an option called Intelli-plug.
I google this and see it complete replacement for MP-decision.
So what is best of them for battery life and performance at cook rom?
(I think MP-decision is best for Stock rom, correct me if I am wrong )
Intelliplug is a replacement for mp decision implemented by faux123 if im not wrong . It determines the behaviour of the cpu and gpu. Stock nexus and OG only have mp decision. Intelliplug is a better option
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
mp-decision is better.
The only thing the Intelliplug do is causing lags, freezes and other annoying strange things.
imho.
There's also msm_mpdecision (not to be confused with the mpdecision binary) by showp1984, which is pretty good. It has input boost and is the smoothest I've tried. I'd give that a shot depending on what kernel you're running. In trickster, it'll be a menu in specific called MSM-MPDECISION control (or something like that). CPUQuiet is supposed to be good as well, but I haven't personally run it. Auto_hotplug and mako_hotplug in faux and matr1x are typically better for battery than others, but are not quite as smooth.

If you are comparing stock vs N4, yes, they are different; stock should actually be a bit better since Qualcomm doesn't include certain things on Nexus devices. On CM, the mpdecision binary used I believe is from N4 4.2.

I don't see anything that is making Qualcomm MP-Decision better than Faux123 custom Intelliplug driver His hotplug driver is everything that MP-Decision is lacking of + more battery friendly and less heat generating..
MPDecision is much more aggressive in terms of changing CPU frequency (automatically goes to 1026 when input is detected). IntelliPlug is more for battery than performance. For performance, I suggest MSM-MPDecision from showp1984 (it's on most of my kernels and a couple others), which performs similarly to the mpdecision binary in terms of boosting frequencies and raw performance, but is customizable. You can change the frequency for input boost or turn it off altogether. There's a bunch of different settings you can play around with.
CPUQuiet also is one of the better performing hotplug drivers. I don't know quite as much about how it works, but it was made by NVidia and ported to Snapdragon by maxwen and has a set of governors which keep the CPU running at optimal frequencies for battery and performance.
In my opinion Intelliplug is extremely finicky and unpredictable. I get much better battery life with mpdecision.
I am a little newbie on this, so may i ask a question?
How can i install MP-decision?
Is it built-in on a kernel or do i have to download it seperately?
any body can completely explain what relay MP-decision and Intelliplug do? or any body know where I can read complete documentation of those?

MPdecision
Guys,
In my humble opinion what i have noticed is - when you enable a mpdecision i.e.on in the cpu, based on your cpu gov settings say for performance - one core of your cpu will always be at 100% and based on the activities it will switch on or off, the other cores.
When your cpu gov settings are interactively managed, again one of your core will be working and based on the certain % say 79 or 80,it will switch on the other cores.
If you deactivate mpdecision then almost all your cores will be active at any given time. But may not run as high as in enabled state.
So if you are one of those who cares about your cpu heating and don't use cpu tuners or sleepers. Set it off.
If you are into gaming and very smooth ui experience and doesn't bother about battery drain, switch it on.
I have enabled the settings and use custimized task scripts to reduce the frequency of the core as soon as i switch off the screen.

Amazing Battery life on my REDMI 1s..

Hi friends,I'm going to share my experience of amazing battery life on my Redmi 1s..
What I did to get amazing battery life and better multitasking on my Redmi:-
1)I flashed the latest Mokee rom (Release version-272 MB) on my Device.
2)Flashed the Powersaver thermal config Mod.You'll find it at the end of this post.
3)I installed Trickster Mod Kernel setting APK from the play store and I did below modifications to it
a)Set the CPU max and min frequency to 300MHZ and 1094 MHZ.Turned on the CPU frequency lock.
b)Governer set to ONDEMAND and schedular to ROW.
c)Turned on MP-Decision,Set Multicore Power saving mode to 2 and turned on temperature throttle.
d)Set the GPU max frequency to 320 MHZ and governor to ONDEMAND .
(Set it to 450MHZ if you game a lot however it donot cause serious battery changes as per my observations)
4)Install greenify from Play store and hibernate most of the apps That causes cpu wakes (I greenified all downloaded apps )
5) Thats it you are ready to get most out of your redmi's battery. Please comment your experiences here.

i think he means that underclocking this phone to 1000mhz would definitely slow it down, rendering the quad-core powerful device incapable to functions at its best performance possible. im running 1344 mhz now and i think its enough compromise between processing power and battery mileage.

The config file is at the end of the post as an attached file. I've been using the max frequency at 1095MHZ for about a week and I didn't face any sort of lag in the performance but I dont game.If u game a lot just put GPU to the max frequency thats it.

If u are a hardcore gamer Just keep the GPU frequency to 450MHZ .You'll have no issue I played games like Real racing,Contract killer and even Good old NFS most wanted on my device.I faced no lag and note I didn't touched the CPU frequency.There was no issues like overheating or frame drops etc.

No I just Did what I explained in this post try battery calibration by Neema before calibrating charge your phone to full and calibrate,Reboot.If you loose any juice after reboot just charge it to full again and discharge to 0 and charge again.Note dont interrupt charging or discharging process in the middle.This might help you.

ok, i will try that. i use to run MIUI but i tried the unofficial mokee rom because i thought it might improve the battery life, but to no avail still. i will try the official one though. (the one you posted.)

If you do a little more changing in governot you didn't need to underclock because doing that you transform a powerfull phone into a Red Rice and that's no good!

lol these are all battery myths and rumours ... the so called calibration is to be done to old lead acid batteries which is a obsolete tech now and the LI-ion and Li-po batteries we use are much smarter and they dont need to get calibrated and get done all the things you mentioned in your post and allowing it to drain to zero will only reduce the battery cycles left and thus reducing the battery performance so dont spoil your battery by doing all those things just make sure it doesnt die ( drains to zero) every time you charge your phone or else your battery cycles will be reduced
