About swiftkey, yeah I know it's weird.

When It happened, just to be sure it started cursing on my notes app and it didn't complete me... :D

About extweaks boot - kinds noob off me...

where do I find than option?

Actually I looked for that option when I defined the settings but I didn't find it...

Thanks!

Edit: about the boot issue, it's strange because all the freezes that I encountered happened after reboots that I have done for my device.

It remembered those settings and froze after a minute.

If I restarted it, the settings were gone after boot?

After I decreased the uv to -50 the freezes stopped and it remembers my settings after boot.

By setting on boot, do you mean "apply changes" after every change or is there something else?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Unfortunately or fortunately there is no option "set on boot" in ExTweaks. All the settings you apply will be executed after every boot by default. BTW don't worry about -75mV. Some phones are not able to handle this including mine :). Regards
[Galaxy S II General] gabi11:
I see in your signature that your uv settings are quite different.

I've done some reading about it but just to be sure -

In cases I'd like to modify my uv settings, then I'll do it with voltage control.

first I'll have to disable the uv settings in extweaks, reboot, and then set the values with VC.

Right?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
I'm right and you are right. My UV settings in ExTweaks are -50 mV, -75 mV is not possible (phone freezes). After some investigations recognized that it is caused by frequency 500 MHz which can't be undervolted in my phone more than -50 mV (1000 mV/Samsung default - 50 mV = 950 mV)but it doesn't mean that it is not possible on other frqs (what you see in my sig). Finetunning on other frqs I do with Voltage Control. Regards
[Galaxy S II General] gabi11:
Nice...

So i'll stay with my settings a few more days (ExTweaks -50mv).

If it all goes well I'll start uv some more freq (one by one) through VC and learn what works fine on my device.

That actually means that with VC i'll uv the "already undervolted freq"' which were uv by ExTweaks...?

Press thanks if I helped! (just kidding, allways wanted to write it...:laugh:)
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
This time you haven't helped me but I believe that I will get support from you in near future if needed :). So +1 in advance (for nice discussion) :). Coming back to the topic, yes you got the point well. It works without any conflicts, I mean general UV on all frequencies in ExTweaks (changes are applied during every boot, not in real time) and finetunning (more UV on some frqs in Voltage Control). But of course (up to you) - you can disable UV in ExTweaks and do it only with Voltage Control. Regards
[Galaxy S II General] Edrish:
Can this work on my phone??, as am using siyah V4.1

Have tried it for a couple of days now without any clear diffrence.

help tnx!!

sry to be exact it's

Siyah -s2-v4.0.1+gm@ubuntu #2
[Galaxy S II General] Scarface2283:
Hi guys,

Is two days that I'm having problems FC and freeze screen, and I'm only at - 25MHz
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Hmm... battery run screenshots??

What settings did you try? Kinda need proof of it not working, as it works for everyone else in this thread.

Hmm... did you try it only with UV on CPU??
[Galaxy S II General] Scarface2283:
Uv and cpu but I'm using setcp
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
No.

I mean only UV the CPU, not anything else like GPU settings or something.

Its probably best for you to use ExTweaks and follow the instructions exactly!
[Galaxy S II General] Scarface2283:
Yes, UV only the CPU, anyway i'm back to ExTweaks, I will try to see if there is the same problems, the only good thing that I like in SetCPU is the fact that I can select the CPU speed when the phone is sleeping.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Setting that wont affect your battery consumption too much. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Scarface2283:
Well after 4 days with Set CPU, I'm back on ExTweaks, I'm going at -50Mhz, but I don't understand why in the first page there is Voltage control and to be honest I don't find those settings and I'm using Voltage Controle Extreme and ExTweaks Pro aswell.

I had a problem with my Radio I don't know if is due to the UV or CPU settings, but insted of the normal signal it came up the round circle with a diagonal bar in the center, like if I didn't have no Sim inside.

Anyone had the same problem?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Signal loss has nothing to do with CPU settings. If you read the first post carefully you will see that those settings are to be used with GB and Voltage Control on older Siyah kernels.

The settings in post 850 are for the latest ICS Siyah kernels, and are to be used with ExTweaks.

Sent from my HTC One X
[Galaxy S II General] Scarface2283:
Ah ok I didn't wread that bit, anyway I remember that in previous post someone said that ExTweaks dis set the UV saying that going on Voltage Controle they did not see the difference, I must say that is not true I saw the difference in the UV.
[Galaxy S II General] ata1918:
That's right, you have to reboot to apply the UV settings.

And as geko95gek said, only use extweaks, it has everything you need and works like a charm. You might like VC , however you can't set any parameters with it.
[Galaxy S II General] DrNet1983:
Thanks Geko! Totally appreciate this thread.

[Galaxy S II General] jmpantani:
For all people that can't use -75mv in extweaks:

THE PROBLEM is 500MHz... You must to use an apk like setcpu or voltage control to change voltages. Try to change all frequencies -100mv except 500MHz. In 500MHz change to 925mv or 950mv, then you'll have a good UV without freeze or FC!!!

1200-1100-1000-9000-800-700-600-400-300-200-100 -> -100mv

500-> change to 925mv or 950mv

Bye!
[Galaxy S II General] tlf55:
Does undervolting change the "smooth" of the phone ? Or it's just because underclocking ? I'm at 200-800mhz with -50mv and it feel a lot less smooth than 200-1000mhz with -25mv

I changed gpu setting too, 100mhz-100mhz-160mhz-160mhz (like this it act like only 2 step gpu .. right ?) with UV to 800mv for 100mhz and 850mv for 160mhz

So what act to be smoother ? Does i have to change CPU setting a bit higher or GPU ? Or both ? Or just the undervolting setting ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Lots of new parameters in newest Siyah 4.1.1 and ExTweaks (like 4 steps for GPU).

An update would be great.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
SetCPU has Stress Test function built in.

Nice mate, hope it all goes well for you!

This isn't the case for everyone, each device chip is slightly different and thus acts in different ways.

No, with my tests and this config... smoothness was the same after undervolting. However, if you underclock beyond 1000Mhz you might notice some lags.

An update is coming, I'm just waiting on feedback from some users.
[Galaxy S II General] tigerphil:
Was meaning to upload these a few days ago. Seem to have sorted all my wakelocks. Did have quite a high use on this day with my son wanting to play games for alot of the day but happy with the results seeing all his games are learning cards etc....2 yr old uses the phone faster than me haha

@geko95gek. Off subject here but i finally downloaded your recent trance mix!!! Although i'm nicknamed the dubstep junkie, i think i could quite easily listen to your mix quite often!! upladed it to my phone as i write this but also got it playing through a powerful technics system, i know 1 of my neighbours are enjoying it as had them shout up to my balcony to turn it up some more :D i'll be looking out for the mixes now!

Also, if it has gone down that well... perhaps you should download all of them?

Oh and subscribe to the RSS feed, then you will know about new uploaded mixes automatically. :)
[Galaxy S II General] tigerphil:
It was your most recent mix on the list, for once my neighbours didnt complain about the music, my system has got a tendency to shake the flat :D even got my dad wanting a copy so have told him i'll get him the others to listen to aswell soon as i'm on my laptop and while i'm there i'll sign up to the RSS feed. Bit calmer than the dubstep but nothing wrong with calming the tempo now and then especially while i'm out with my ear phones in:p

[Galaxy S II General] RovG:
Hi geko95gek,

When it does come, would be greatful if you could post the extweaks profile file for each profile i.e. extreme, less aggressive & relaxed if they still exist.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Yes it will be the same structure as the current magicconfig, simply because the possibility of different tweaks has increased.

At the same time, this means that there is an increased probability of 1 configuration not working well for everyone. This is why it's split into 3 differently leveled configs.

Sent from my HTC One X
[Galaxy S II General] RovG:
:) Tks, but I was asking you if you could upload/attach the actual extweaks files for each profile if possible.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Hmm... if you mean scripts then no.

If you mean text files then also no.

I will just do as I have done so far and give you guys the values plus a guide and screenshots. It will still be up to you to input all the settings correctly into ExTweaks.
[Galaxy S II General] RovG:
:( Ok, I hear you. Would you mind if I uploaded or attached the files to a post here?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Be my guest mate.

It could well be beneficial to others. :)
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:

Did u fix anything in cos I have feeling yours is slower but I don't know about battery life cos didn't check that properly and my question is your verssion is batt friendly
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
The config should work fine with JB mate.

No mate, it's probably just a small difference in updater-script.

I don't mess around with modifying modems.
[Galaxy S II General] r1akn:
gecko is it safe to use the extreme UV values in SGS2?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26755476

Because you wrote some scary staff

is there a chance to get a hard brick or something like that so I cant retrieve the default settings from recovery menu?

And I don't see the Arch_power option in ExTweaks why is that?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Hi, you will not have any hard brick (or something like that) what could harm your phone. You can face freeze or random reboots if you undervolt to much. What I experienced when undervolted to much 1 GHz frequency is that after unexpected reboot I lost some files from external SD card (I found them later as corrupted files in LOST.DIR and couldn't restore them at all). So my recommendation before applying MaginConfig is to:

- make nandroid backup

- copy all valuable files (not belonging to the nandroid backup) from internal SD and external SD to PC.

When you experience problems then go to CWM recovery and reset ExTweaks settings.

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] r1akn:
Thanks for the reply :)

I noticed that my ExTweaks options are different and I can't use the tutorial why is that?

for example I dont have Arch_power and SCHED_MC options and I have 4 steps in GPU.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
ExTweaks app (its content) is strictly dependant on a kernel. It is designed in a way that it shows only those tunables wich are enabled by a kernel to be tweaked using this app. Everytime it's DEV decision which are available in ExTweaks and which not. But it doesn't mean that you can't tweak them at all. You can use init.d scripts for that. Eg I am using a init.d script to set ARCH_POWER to be ON.

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] r1akn:
So why those settings arent enabled by the kernel maybe it can harm something?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
First part of your question should go I think to gokhanmoral. But taking into account that he doesn't like asking questions to him directly, just post it in Siyah kernel discussion thread and maybe he responds why he did it. Answer for second part of your question is in my previous post - I changed ARCH_POWER by init.d script from OFF (default) to ON and nothing bad happened.
[Galaxy S II General] stopro:
Geko mate if I change screen touch frequency from 500mhz to 400mhz to save more batt it will lag or no difference cos I was thinking about that cos with 500 I CNT go below 950 a with 400 I have stable 850 and just asking is any point to do that

I haven't tested that myself but you're welcome to give it a try.

If you notice micro-lags though might be a good idea to change it back afterwards. ;)

Thought i'd try your settings. Heres 2 diff screenshots. My original set up was changed wednesday morning (the days are in the top right corner on my screenshots) my son must of switched my wifi on tuesday as i dont use it at the moment so had alot of wakeups while it was switched on searching for networks. So far alls running smooth inc my sons learning cards and games that he constantly plays (most of the phones use is by my son) heres how its all gone so far
[Galaxy S II General] Spinvis:
Thanks tigerphil, great to see someone else trying it and getting results. In the mean time i have changed some of my settings in the hopes of an even better result. Haven't been able to test it extensively yet but hopefully soon i will be able to post something new.

In addition to that I have installed DroidWall, and SystemCleanup. With this i have blocked unnecessary autoruns, only allowed a few apps internet access, rest is blocked, in the hopes of conserving even a bit more battery.

We will see how this goes.

Hi thanks,

But as I stated - it was at light usage of phone (mostly Tapatalking on XDA on mobile data, very few short phone calls and almost not WIFI). When I checked how it was with high usage of phone calls it was as follows:

- On battery time (100% - 7%): 2d 10h

- Screen on time: 4h 25min

- Phone calls: 1h 2 min

I thing still not bad.

hi,

your signature shows minimum voltage as 800. in my sgs2 the minimum is 850? how do i go below 850?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
It's kernel related. On Siyah it's possible (minimum possible is 750mV but it will rather not work). I see from your sig that you are on different kernel so reffer to your kernel's features.
[Galaxy S II General] Hilmesh:
Hi, Thanks for your quick response. I have been following your post and advise on the getting the best out of battery. i am yet to finish a complete run and once done i will post it. I have changed my signature. I am on Siyah 5.0i with your Stweaks settings script. The only changes i made are setting 200Mhz as minimum, Undervolting to -75 & Min Low brightness to 130. I have not faced any issue except occasional crash of Swype. no other hangs. did not do any other customization with voltage control app. I am using Standard out of the box battery.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
One remark to that. If you use my Touch Freq tweak, it sets the touch freq to 100MHz. So if you changed min scalling freq to 200MHz you need to adjust the Touchfreq script as well.
[Galaxy S II General] supersaeed:
Thanks for this I tried the less aggressive settings on my Sprint varient GS2 on ics with Kuban kernel and this is the best battery life I've ever gotten

Edit: ALSO I had auto sync on which I usually never keep on and only get about 2-2.5 hours screen on time!
[Galaxy S II General] jorg3acg:
performance is good :)
[Galaxy S II General] bobdoblo:
Nearly 12 hours & 4.5 hours screen on is the best you ever got:eek:

Turn off all checkboxes in settings - locations and only use when needed.

Turn off motion.

Try Gemini app to stop autostarts on apps like maps.

Sync manually for email, facebook, twitter etc.

Use black wallpapers and put brightness to 20% or less in settings - display.(turn off auto brightness)

In browser press menu - brightness and put to 20% or less (turn off auto brightness)

Just them things will give a significant increase in battery time.
