i suggest a small tutorial on how to change sets and what to use :D...users like us "noobs" (according to "demigods") need those things as well when starting...

btw...can this work with andreilux settings? i have a obtained a zip c/o omniwolf from siyah's thread on those sets...i dont actually set my settings on boot (i just memorize them and apply when i suddenly need the urge to reboot)...omniwolf already advised me to just flash his packaged zip of the setting and keep everything on VC untouched (or maybe the gpu part)...would that work? can i just flash his script then touch only gov/sched and voltage sets on VC?:confused:

Geko's settings but +50mV at every step.

So if geko has 1200 mV at 1200MHz, I have 1250 mV.

My phone seems to have problems with Geko's UV setings. I guess my phone can't handle it.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Its a shame but you're still receiving decent results on your current setup.

Still, I think its remarkable that you're one of only about 5 people that experienced issues using MagicConfig. I guess it kinda proves that I did the right thing by posting it in its own thread instead of sending out PMs lol

Logged using an SGS2 type droid while floating in CheckROM quadrant...
[Galaxy S II General] XDA mark:
Yeah, you did. This thread has become a succes imo. This config is very usefull for many people and helps new people. They dont have to do the research on their own on where that sweet spot for undervolting might be. Now they know your config is and in some situations like my own they can add 50 mV or in many other situations they might even lower by 50 mV.
[Galaxy S II General] blaex:
yeah perfect, i used this configuration long before offical announced as magic config. my experiences with hdmi 1080p was that u need at least 850 mw on 100 mhz gpu clock to avoid SODs, it happens very often if i disconnect the mhl cable.

NEAK results with Lionheart tweaks

Here you go guys latest results with NEAK kernel. I honestly can get more out of the battery if i wanted to. What i mean if i was a light user i am sure i could get over two days out of it if i wanted to. But this is based on heavy usage. Gonna try now just conservative and no Lionheart tweaks
[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
thats normal if you use your device all time on a heavy usage :)

i am testing RedPill Kernel on heavy usage at the moment
[Galaxy S II General] :
cheers. currently going through all the governors on NEAK to see which one is the best and i have to say Lulzactive for me is the king cause of the way i can tweak around with it..But conservative now without Lionheart tweaks i have to see how that goes:) i shall report back
[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
nice to hear that we are getting more testing people to get best results :)

i am on redpill kernel noop/conservative at the moment and battery life is great!

i'll post my results later :)
[Galaxy S II General] s2dh:
I am running Siyah, but keep seeing Red Pill mentioned.

In general which is getting the best reviews, not sure if I should switch to Red Pill or stay on Siyah..

Any advice?
[Galaxy S II General] Pennywice:
Have you tried NEAK geko?

Was on siyah for a long time, and was a bit of a fan boy. But after trying the NEAK kernel, and sticking with it for over a month now, i cant see no reason to go back to siyah.
[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
it's difficult to say which kernel is the best because every kernels has its own pros and cons - for battery life at the moment i would take RedPill kernel, but Siyah will get an update tomorrow to 2.6.13 with old and new settings so that it will become more battery friendly :)

it's your descision, you can try it for yourself to see what you think is better for you :)
[Galaxy S II General] Igor 3:
I think lulzactive has more lag than conservative (without lionheart), Im on NEAK, tried lulzactive and put for example live wallpaper HD Christmas and to scan back and forth automatic, you will see lag, especially while scroling on home screen. With conservative there is no lag whatsoever.

[Galaxy S II General] :
Try tweaking the governor though and you will see a big difference;)

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

never have tried ondemand and never will. For me the all time great governor is smartassv2. but after playing with NEAK and trying Lulzactive and tweaking it to my liking that is the best one for me. But i am trying all the governors so far and well you can see the results..if you want me to share my settings here i have no problems
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
I'm on it at the moment and have been for about 4 days. Some preliminary recommended Governor/Scheduler combos:

NOON/BFQ + Ondemand

NOOP + Conservative

Lulzactive is not recommended, simply because it takes too much messing around just to get a decent idle drain on it. Sadly its not as good on NEAK as it used to be on old Siyah releases.

Overall I find the performance and battery drain very similar to the older Siyah's, like v2.6.4, 2.6.7 and 2.6.9. However I'm even expecting slightly better drain while in use.

can you guys help me ? which scheduler/governor combination is best for RedPill and which for NEAK (I want the batery to last as much as possible but I'd also like to have smooth animations..), thanks

The answer to the RedPill governor/scheduler question is in the OP (1st post), please read and try them out yourself.

Also take a look at one of my posts above which has the best combo for NEAK kernel.

[Galaxy S II General] :
As geko has already mentioned Noop + conservative and enable Lionheart tweaks work like a charm for me. I am currently testing without the Lionheart tweaks now and will report back. Check previous page for more guides
[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
i am interested in these results with Lionheart script and without :)

i am not sure but my feeling was that with this script the positive change was not really there :)

THank you for testing it :)
[Galaxy S II General] ed1:
I have a stupid question, how do I know enabled Lionheart or not, where to see it?
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
You can see it in recovery mode.

simone201 has added some extra menu options, such as to enable/disable Lionheart tweaks.

Just go there and the option will tell you "Do you want to disable ..." if it is enabled, or "Do you want to enable ..." if it is disabled.
[Galaxy S II General] :
No it is ok. I know i do not do a full on extensive test like you and It_ler but the way i do my testing is charge it to the fullest and then use it as normal till the battery dies down near enough. I do not do any reboots or switch it off during the testing. So i just use the phone like i would normally do. Anyway with Lionheart tweaks plus conservative governor you saw the results on previous page which were good..so far i can say without the tweaks looks better...;) Phone sleeps like a baby
[Galaxy S II General] Bade90:
Many thanks to geko for this configuration. Amazing battery life!

I only had a problem yesterday: battery level went from 61 to 64 (not in charge obviously) :eek:

Perhaps this is a normal step for battery calibration?
[Galaxy S II General] Jodelaplaya:
In general which kernel is better for battery life with your configuration ?

And can I undervolt the screen ? Like phenomenal kernel ? Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] :
undervolt the screen you mean brightness? if so that is down to you. i leave my one on automatic brightness as i like to drool over my amoled gorgeous screen. kernels for me the best is siyah hands down..But NEAK has a soft spot so that is also a good one to...i think phenomenal comes already very UV anyway so no need to play with settings as far as i know (someone please correct me) but anyway with Gekos settings i would go with siyah
[Galaxy S II General] jermitano:
wait for some more cycles and the battery will adjust mate...best best around 3-4
[Galaxy S II General] legionxx:
yes pls.. would be greatful to know what kinda settings you are on, also looking forward to your test without lionheart tweaks on conservative. tq-tq :D
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Hmm... did you flash a ROM or a Kernel recently?

The best and fastest way to stabilize the battery on SGS2 is charge it to 100% then quickly switch phone off and take it out for at least 90 secs. Put it back in and that's it, the level should still be 100%.

If you mean undervolting the actual OLED unit then yes its possible and no I do not recommend it. It could potentially cause damage to the display if done incorrectly.

[Galaxy S II General] :
Now with Lionheart tweaks and conservative i got great results. Thought i try without the tweaks and lets say i gave up half way through as the drain was a bit more so i am changing governors now to Lazy and going to test that. If anyone is going to use conservative use Lionheart tweaks to with NEAK as you will get better battery and performance.

Hope this helps people out there please report back and let me know how yougot on
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
@Stifler Thanks for helping out in this thread, its much appreciated.

However, would you be able to kindly PM your settings to legionxx please instead of posting them here. As it could be confusing to other readers here, since this thread should only be about MagicConfig settings. Thanks.

I've seen the others posting some values but difference is that they initially started with MC values and adjusted them afterwards to their liking.

Logged using an SGS2 type droid while floating in CheckROM quadrant on a research mission.......
[Galaxy S II General] :
no worries fella it is cool. I message legion so hope he gets it...Anyways like i said man conservative without the Lionheart tweaks for me was a no go...So for the best combos have been conservative plus Lionheart tweaks and Lulz with the app and tweaking it. Going to try lazy and see how that goes....By the way off topic..Latest build of cm9 mate is the best yet from what i have read....really getting tempted but there are still more goodies on GB so i will be holding off for a few more weeks:D

Can confirm this:

Using N.E.A.K., conservative governor with enabled Lionheart tweaks lead to slightly better balance between performance and battery life on my phone and with my "normal" usage, too.

No it isnt so but running the kernel with your settings is no probleml ;)

Anyways, every device has its own CPU defaults so that is detected by kernel on boot.

Kernel feels amazing so far, very low usage drain. Sleeps like a baby as well.

Enable it either from CWM or from neak configurator
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Unfortunately no. We do not have custom kernels yet since there is no source. So no voltage tweaks.

Its working fine here. You have to enable it first to be able to use it. Its in NEAK options within recovery menu or you can use the configurator app from the market.

[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
didn't know why my browser not find this even if i put it in the search function :D aber i get it now thx :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
you can enable the tweaks if you want now from the app or leave it off if you want. On previous version both were enabled by default. If you do not enable them you get better performance but might get a bit more drain in battery.

i am currently back on Lulz governor and using the app to tweak the governor and i am heavy underclock to 800max. i have to say the kernel is running like it is on 1200max instead the way i have tweaked it.:D
[Galaxy S II General] so_ony:
had lulzactive activated yesterday and battery drains 15 % during the night o.o quite a lot. hat the steps from 200-1000 mhz and voltage settings like Geo mentioned in his thread. but this kernel is running much more smoother than RedPill kernel i think personally. I think i am testing out 200-800 as you did :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
not going to lie lulz can be a pain if you was to leave it by default...to get the best out of it you have to tweak it..which i have done and over night i must of lost about 2% in six hours. that is why i love that governor cause i can tweak it. but yeah it does drain alot depending what you do with it.....but still 15% overnight and still on stock that is quite abit as this gov has a sleep off profile implemented in it

As mentioned by many people here, NEAK 1.4x is running great with MagicConfig. So far very good results, both performance/smoothness and battery wise, running Noop+conservative and Lionheart tweaks enabled. Also with the NEAK configurator app all the options turned on (sched_mc, AFTR and Ext4 tweaks or what they are called)

So far no more problems with the stock browser + the fullscreen/useragent mod, like on 1.3.3x.
