CPU temperature question (app&mod) - G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]

OK I'm working on the cttmod for mm and I'm having trouble getting different temperature readings from the different apps I'm using to test so I have a two part question
1 - Does anyone know of an app that accurately measure the temp ?
2- How can I tell what method or what directory mm stock and stock kernels get there temperature information and an temperature app that will allow me to point it in the same direction.
Right now I've got the mod working but the 5°c+ difference in temperature is a big difference when allowing the CPU's temp to be higher before it throttles and for how long it stays there.

Hey.
You can see all thermal zones here:
/sys/class/thermal/
If I'm not wrong, thermal_zone0 is for the cpu package(not only core0), so you can use this to see the temp.
I'm using cooltool from Google play and custom label with this for path:
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
You can change refresh rate and some other things in the app. You can also watch on what mhz cpu work, so you can see when it throttle
Hope this will help you
P.s.- This is the most accurate temp reading, because you read it directly from the kernel.

You can see it runing in statusbar and this is the custom label configurations I'm using for cpu temp.

Thanks and that just confirmed it. Kernel auditor is the one that's off out the five that I tried only kernel auditor was a consistent 5+ ° c lower than the other four which all stayed without 1 to 2° of each other. That's the reason my mod wasn't working the way I thought it was . Now time to start over
Again thanks I just needed some additional confirmation and that did it

Tegrak OC updated! Now works on E4GT ICS 4.0.4!

Thats right, ever since AOKP and CM9 have updated to 4.0.4 i lost the ability to overclock, well Tegrak OC is now fully functional (at least on AOKP b37)
Any brave souls willing to test on cm9a5?.. if it doesnt work it wont brick the phone will it? Lol

It works fine. I've used tegrak for ever. As soon as it updated and started working I tried it on my ROM, CM9, and AOKP. Shouldn't have many issues. Just don't under volt too far
Anyone post the apk? Keep getting a error when download
edit:got it to download and works great!

Generally people undervolt -50 or -75 mV from the stock values. Some go -100 mV but that could get you bootlooped. Make sure that your phone is stable after undervolting before setting it on startup. As for OC, I'd say max should be like 1500 Mhz

Tegrak has a great feature. No matter what your settings are when you reboot you have to apply the settings after the phone boots. So if you make a change that locks up the phone you can reboot and undo it by hitting cancel at the tegrak screen. When I undervolt I normally go -50mv on each step including GPU. This seems to work the best for me on ICS ROMs. On GB I could go to -75mv and even -100mv on some steps. But -50mv seems to give you a little more battery life and still good performance. Just my input.

[FIX] {80% working} how to decrease lock screen walk up lag ~

hi ! guys today i will share trick to decrease lock screen lag to 80% which is 8 out of 10 tries (not bad ) on default lock screen it is around 40% ~~~
ALL tools are free
STEPS :-
1) download GO Locker from market
2) then download GO Locker Simple RightTheme from market or any locker theme which is less then 600 KB
3) that's it ! now you will get less lock screen lags :victory:
thing to remember ;-
-THIS NOT 100% fix
- don't not change lock screen wallpaper (by changing lock screen wallpaper you will get around 60%)

Thank you, I'll try it now, I had this problem before and the new launcher from sgs III solved it
What a great development. Appreciate your hard work mate. Truly a difficult work.

Nice, will test this out!
Does it work for anyone?
Wake up lag is the exynos chip waiting for the modem to wake up. Changing your lockscreen will not help dude, unless it prevents your phone from going to sleep, which will decimate your battery life.

It doesn't seem to matter how many times people repeat this over and over. Myself included.
I have given up repeating myself and explaining to people that it's the exynos blah blah it can't be fixed without wakeblah blah. Its a loosing battle. Just let them believe whatever they want to beleive, if it seems to make them happy.

High usage in IRQ, need help

Guys, I have no idea what is IRQ as shown in the screenshot below. It seems that the usage is fairly high once I flashed Faux 7m kernel compared to stock kernel and hence drain my battery faster, this is in accordance to the CPU usage shown in the notification bar for viperX 2.1.0 ROM that the CPU runs very often using faux 7m kernel.

I could barely last for 3hrs OST with very minimum usage compared to 4hrs OST in stock kernel.
Anyone pros here can explain this ? Thanks a lot appreciate your help
May I ask:What software you've use to monitor the CPU usage of each application?
That image shown above I use Elixir 2.
I do use other apps too, including system tuner pro to monitor the usage, the main CPU usage bar is high, but it does not match with the process running, for eg : the main CPU usage shows 40% but sum of all the CPU usage by all the processes is not 40% but much more lower (10%).
I also use betterbattery stat but no problem in wakelock, it's perfectly normal.
Only elixir 2 app manage to find out it is IRQ keeps running.
How ?

Thank you, I've installed this software too, but Mine's as same as yours, IQR keeps running, hope this wont affect the battery life!
Does anyone else know?

Another Battery thread

Ok so I know the HTC One X doesn't have the best battery out there but I am seriously suffering with this phone....
I look at threads on here with people achieving such excellent battery stats but everything I try doesn't really make a difference
Can anybody help me at all.

note the difference between status bar and uccw widget...
no idea why Vault is using that much?
shows bad the performance is
So sorry for creating anther battery thread but I'm sure this isn't correct
Rom is at the moment is IcedColdJelly running latest ncx kernel... But it hasnt been any better when I used to be on either renovate or viper..
Thanks for the help guys

Vault is using almost a quarter of your battery, if this is the software that hides your messages then according to the play store it has permissions to do anything and everything on your phone, including keeping it awake.
If you get rid of that, you have 25% more runtime.

Install Betterbatterystats, and check your wakelocks. This will tell you what is keeping your phone awake then you can remedy the faults.

Android system 4.4.2 killing battery

My Galaxy S III battery drains very fast, sometimes as much as 10% in 30 minutes (running 4.4.2). The battery is fine (I did the spin test), so I'm pretty sure it's a CPU-related issue, especially since the battery temperature is always around 110 deg F. The Android System process uses up more battery percent than my screen, so I did a full reset, ran DU Battery Saver, disabled LTE/sync/wifi, and uninstalled over 100 bloaty system apps through rooting. Still, even with a fresh install and all the other adjustments, the Android System is sucking down the battery juice like it was before.
I've been doing tons of research on this issue and haven't been able to find a solution. When going into the show CPU usage through developer options, the top line (with all the numbers) is often showing a long red line (even after doing a full reset on the phone).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Not CPU related. It's an app hats continuously running in the background. Try Wakelock Detector to find the culprit.

You mean a system app running through the Android System process?

According to Wakelock Detector, here's the top culprits from the kernel wakelock menu (after ~5 hours):
PowerManagerService.Display (~43 min, x53)
main (~43 min, x53)
PowerManagerService.WakeLocks (~26 min, x1428)
bam_dmux_wakelock (~20 min, x797)
Thanks for your help so far. Where do I go from here?
