Dooms V3 Kernel has Custom Voltage! Means you can set Voltage on your own!

The higher your frequenzy the higher your Voltage needs to be! For me 1228mhz only works at 1400mv.

You can set Voltage with IncrediControl! but WARNING: If you're not sure what you're doing, don't do it! You can brick your phone!
[XPERIA X10 General] romasalah:
so should there be a difference in voltages at frequencies near each other? for example 1152 & 1128!! and do u think wlod and reboot are b/c under or overvolt ?
[XPERIA X10 General] romasalah:
another Q... i'm using incredicontrol. i set the voltages then press apply & set on boot but after reboot i see voltages weren't changed!! am i doing something wrong?
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
They are still changed.

But when you reboot, or even re-open the app, they return to default values

and the Apply On Boot button is unchecked.

But above it, you can see the text "boot settings found"

which means that your previous values were saved and will be applied at every boot. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
the only way you could brick your phone is if you fried your chip with too high voltages. He set limits though so it isn't possible.

I wouldn't suggest running 1228 for very long though
[XPERIA X10 General] romasalah:
ah..!! thanks they did change

My battery's at 3797 mV, 41 degrees C, and 56%. I'm on Wolf_xperia_4.0.4s.

My cpu is maxed at 998 and I'm using smartass.

So far so good. I'm an extremely heavy user and am on my phone for 5+ hours a day constantly playing games, surfing, listen to music, watching videos, and checking my email, Facebook, etc. I'm forced to charge my phone two or three times a day just to keep it from dying.

Am I pushing my x10 too far?

Just a quick noob question. Can "set cpu" work on stock kernal, I have WB v4.04 but havent used his custom kernal. What set cpu settings will u recommend me.
[XPERIA X10 General] Frosty666:
SetCpu on stock kernel would only be able to underclock and maybe change the governor.
[XPERIA X10 General] ynkamat:
query

Which profile do you suggest me on stock kernal. I have default as interactive.

To save battery which profile should i use on WB v4. And when i want to play games which should I use.
[XPERIA X10 General] Frosty666:
To save battery, conservative or powersave, for games, try performance, ondemand, interactive.
[XPERIA X10 General] ynkamat:
I am on stock kernal and i have just 5 options, interactive,minmax,smartass_zmod, ondemand, performance.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Smartass is a great setting for me try that it is very good
[XPERIA X10 General] Haldi4803:
Smartass doesn't work correctly on WB 4.0.4 it lags like hell. Music unplayeable.

Scary wont go under 245mhz in idle, so underclocking to 128mhz is useless.

Powersave is same laggy like Smartass.....

so Interactive and OnDemand are the only options....

Nope, im kinda sure if you're undervolting to much thats unhealthy too! Sure, it crashes if CPU is heavy under load but if it's idling and Voltage is to low for way to long this might damage your CPU too.

Edit: Found something interessting,though didn't have the time to read the whole.

[XPERIA X10 General] romasalah:
interactive & smartass are the best they are less battery consuming but for me smartass is laggy @high frequencies i use interactive but u wud loss alittle more power....if u want utmost performance use min/max (performance governor is for benchmarking)
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
LOL what?

The most low voltage would do to your phone is make it reboot.

It reduces some of the possible damage due to overclocking, it can't harm your chip LOL

I'm in the computer design industry.
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
Undervolting could cause stability issues at most....

Overvolting is where damage would occur
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
Voltage = Current * Resistance -> V = IR. CPU has a fixed resistance and is having a fixed voltage applied, so I = V/R. Decreasing V will therefore decrease I proportionally.

Also, Power, P = VI = V * (V/R)= V^2 / R, so decreasing the voltage also decreases power usage, and therefore heat output.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Smartass is laggy and causes the phone to be slow, but my report further back shown that the governor gave fantastic battery life. I have changed to Scary at the moment to see what sort of battery life I can get out of it in everyday situation

I dont understand how to make a governor, but max/min should be the best, I am going to try and get it working again, now let me explain why I imagine it should be the best

When phone is idle, it will be at min, when phone is in use it will be at max trying to finish the task quicker.

Correct me if I am wrong but surely that should in turn use less power

I will test that governor now for the next 5 hours and report back

I am on Zrom as well for info
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
That is actually the worst as it would be using Max frequencies for stuff that doesn't require it.

It would be good for performance but one of the worst for battery life
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Just tried it and your right all though it got stuck on 128 ????

On interactive now going to Rey that again
[XPERIA X10 General] Frosty666:
It does that to me sometimes as well. Try setting the minimum frequency at 192, instead of 128.

[XPERIA X10 General] 2bullish:
I always thought that the whole point of having a choice of governors was the point. Which is best is wholly subjective. Want no lag in your fave game, turn it up baby. Want to browse the web and make a few calls, go the medium root, on a biz trip and don't know when you're on a recharge crank it down. Seems fairly obvious to me.

[XPERIA X10 General] creage:
Let me add some fun here - what about I/O schedulers?))

After about a week of testing I've found interactive governor is the best one, but still not sure about scheduler. Currently running noop scheduler, seems great for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
oooooo what is does that do ?
[XPERIA X10 General] maddes1402:
Good question with the I/O schedulers.

Chiefy, you have so much knowledge when it´s about the diffrent governors and i´m sure a lot of ppl appreciate this thread. So it is a bit surprising that you have never heard about the different schedulers? :eek: I hope i understood that right :p

Unfortunately i can´t explain that properly cos i don´t have the knowledge. But with Doom´s kernel you aren´t just able to choose between the different governors but between the schedulers as well. I quote WIkipedia:"Scheduling is a key concept in computer multitasking, multiprocessing operating system and real-time operating system designs. Scheduling refers to the way processes are assigned to run on the available CPUs, since there are typically many more processes running than there are available CPUs. This assignment is carried out by software known as a scheduler and dispatcher."

So with the app no frills you can choose another I/O schedular and i guess i am not the only one who hoped that you would add this to your detailed tests, too. :D

I hope that I translated "what is does that do" in the right way and that this post isn´t totally useless :p
[XPERIA X10 General] Azch:
really well-informed, now i know the difference of those aside from my hunch lol :p
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Thank you, I had no idea about schedulers and had not come across them till now. The governors I have done by trial and error and I will now add the schedulers to this post and update accordingly after I have tested them

thank you for making me aware though I have hit thanks ;)

Right now, I'm using anticipatory. Ever since I switched to anticipatory (and pushed my high frequency voltages up a little bit via init.d) my x10 is as fast as ever, even at 998mhz. Right now I'm at 1113mhz, my phone is cool, fast, no lag at all, all around brilliant.

[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Using scary today 128-1113 cqf scheduler charged so can't report will report tomorrow on cqr and scary combo, its fast very fast no lag just can't report on battery yet
[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
very informative and useful thread! i've been switching governors for the past days in order to try and experiment, but evaluating on gut feeling only. I'm on Doomkernel v4 failsafe since my x10 is old and not very stable with oc.

my experience: ondemand is laggy, interactive and scary were a bit better but sometimes my phone felt like it took a longer time to wake up or change frequencies causing it to stutter and even freeze for a few moments, which is annoying, for me smartass have been the most stable but checking cpu spy my phone stays basically only at 245hz, it felt smooth on homescreen but slow on browser for instance.

battery has been a bit harder to track though, i have wi-fi on most of the time, browsing and checking social networks is the activity i spent most of my time, listening to music and playing games occasionally, and my battery lasts a day on wolf's 4.04 using any governor, i need to check it more closely.

i've just charged and changed to min/max now, by far the fastest of them all, i'm so curious to check how battery will behave because i'm freaking loving the smoothness.
[XPERIA X10 General] Radioman62:
New findings with UV on lower frequencies

Evaluate on gut feeling is hard. It's easy to deceive yourself.

I use Battery Spy Very good to see a graph and figures of the trend, how many hours up and running, how many hours on battery and how many hours left of battery is calculated in realtime. Also battery/phone temperature and the battery voltage is shown on the graph.

10 days evaluation. That app is simply awesome as a battery detective.

I have this day gone to bfq scheduler and also lowered the lower Governor freq. voltage settings a lot. I guess the latter move did it. I have simply incredibly low battery drain in deep sleep FTM.

The temperature in the phone is just about two degrees (C) above present roomtemperature (24 degrees C) when in deep sleep for a while.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:

[XPERIA X10 General] Frosty666:
All benchmark apps are the wrong benchmark. The best benchmark is yourself. Use the phone on each setting for a while, and take note of its performance and battery life. Quadrant can't do that.

[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
after a couple of days testing i'm starting to think that my lag issues on wake up are probably a rom issue, changing governors or I/O had little effect on that.

edit: best combination for minimal lags seems to be minmax+anticipatory for me, battery drain is high on use but low on sleep, however, it's been like that with any settings.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiefy009:
Strangely I have had a few random reboots at low battery not sure if they are connected
[XPERIA X10 General] Haldi4803:
completly agree with you! But on Canogenmod 6 (wb tw07) with old Doomkernel, there were some bugged governors! bfq per example couldn't get a I/O score over 500, no matter what you did.

This proofs that they are all working as they should! Beside, I/O is the way how the CPU handles the Work, there should be a performance difference in a benchmark! it's just that Quadrant's I/O Bench isn't specific enough. right? guess you only truly see I/O difference when switching between running apps.

i also think that I/O won't make such a grave Battery difference than Governor's do. because governors directly inflict CPU load. I/O's only define what is done first.

btw. About Smartass governor. Some1 tried to tweak it for personal use?

Like viulian said here Smartass is very customizable.

tried a little. increased max_cpu_load to 90 and min_cpu_load to 35. might lag a little but uses more intermediate frequencies. I think i should increase the ramp_up_step if max_cpu_load is that high. (well, that would be against battery safeing -.- )

maybe a better flowing with max 70 min 40 and smaller ramp up/down steps would be an idea...

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherBoo:
Hi All,

I'm looking for a good Streaming Video server that can be used on Android that works over cell networks (3G or 4G) and has tablet support. A giant bonus would be a server that is also a DLNA. Something with a Windows client would be pretty sweet as well. The TF will be my primary device, but I'd really like to be able to stream to my phone, laptop, and Blu-Ray player as well.

I'm currently using Plex, and it sucks. The server is buggy and laggy, doesn't find Metadata for shows unless they're named PERFECTLY, and won't show me videos that it can't find Metadata for. I will say the interface is fantastic, but it needs a lot of work.

I've read some good things about the VLC server, but it appears to not be very user friendly. While I'm technically savvy, I'd prefer to try something first that works just as well and doesn't require a difficult configuration.

Thoughts and recommendations please?

Not to scare you but if you were using kies....... bfranklin is probably right. cheap and fast way to check to see if its actually BRICKED is to find an old car charger or something (you will be destroying it) and buy 100k ohm resistors from radio shack... $1.19 for a 5 pack.

check out this video for help. This worked for me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0aoabVtPJ8

below are some pics of my personal JIG and a diagram that would help you to locate pins 4 and 5. I'm pretty sure car chargers are best to use because they already have a resistor on the correct pins you need ( PRETTY SURE ) you just have to replace the resistor with the 300k ohm resistor (actually you need 301k ohm but 300k works fine) you will be making by combining 3 100k ohm resistors. check the link on the video for help finding them at radio shack. I think the part number for the 5 pack is there. anyways knowing kies.... this might not help but its a cheap way to find out for sure and then you would have a JIG for future problems just incase. you could always buy a jig online for around 10 bucks if you don't mind waiting for shipping
