Hmm, good point. Didn't think about the amount of undervolting affecting music playback. I will give that a shot and see what I can find.

When I first flash the kernel, are the default values the default factory voltages or default kernel voltages?

Thanks.

I remember someone helped a guy work through Wi-Fi issues. The router kept don't something that woke up his phone. I'd need to do some crazy searching to find it though. I think it was in the kernel thread. But the guy had crazy tools... anyways I'm suspicious about my router. I get bad battery life and at school here Wi-Fi is always turned on. Also cell reception is a huge factor. Your radios take up a lot of power if they have to work all the time.

Probably a stupid question. I'm running 01/26 Task AOKP with 01/26 KT747 kernel. Using ktoonservative and row (up_threshold 57, up_hotplug 58 and down_block_cycles 22). UV'd -25V across the board. Battery life is great. However, when I look at the battery info, it appears my screen is on at times but my phone is not awake. Take a look at the screen shot. Am I missing something?

There are many issues with the battery stats in 4.2 roms from what I can tell, this happens to me on both tasks aokp and rootbox. Also screen time will not be recorded if you begin using it immediately after boot until the screen is cycled off and on again. For now, just try to ignore the stats as they are not very accurate.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
From Wiki: dynamic voltage scaling to decrease voltage is known as undervolting. Undervolting is done in order to conserve power, particularly in laptops and other mobile devices, where energy comes from a battery and thus is limited. Overvolting is done in order to increase computer performance, or in rare cases, to increase reliability.

So thats were those sliders come in handy under "Voltages" in Ktweaker.

So the idea is that you get some safe voltage per that threads research by those guys, and tweak a little bit at a time yourself.

When you UV too much you will get weird issues like Bluetooth crackling sounds, music skipping, random reboots, and I think even screen artifacts so that's why you take your time.

For benchmarks the performance governor will give you the best results. Interactive also gives great performance and is a lot more practical on battery life. Also over clocking will increase performance if your phone can handle it, and raising your min freq can also help (but not quite as practical as raising max freq)

If it's hot enough to cook bacon on it's to hot. Ya know I used to use system tuner to monitor my cpu temps, I had to download a notifications package from in the app, but that was no big deal. It was incredibly helpful for bench making when I used to overclock. It would run a constant notification in the status bar telling the cpu temp. I'd recommend it for you.

Random side note. I think my lowest temperature I achieved was like -17 Celsius or something. It benchmarked like a dream at that temp!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] liltitiz:
Re: KT747 KTweaker: share and discuss your setting

You're doing it the right way. A high down threshold will make your CPU more likely to scale down. For example, if you set it to 60, when your CPU drop to a 60% or less usage it will scale down.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
Re: KT747 KTweaker: share and discuss your setting

Excellent! Thanks! I always forget... lol.

I've got my up thresholds and down thresholds really high and the sampling rate really low so hopefully it samples as soon as necessary so hopefully it scales to it's exact frequency it needs to be at.

I'm running the governor adjustments Ktoon posted a day or so ago with my thresholds changed and a few other things changed, so far it's finally giving me great battery life.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Re: KT747 KTweaker: share and discuss your setting

It has to do with hot plugging and the errors are present when you use a governor that controls hot plugging like ktoonservative. Ktoonsez has stated that it doesn't affect battery life so its not really a big deal. I just rename it to mpdecision.bak when using a hot plugging governor, then if you switch to another governor that doesn't hotplug like interactive, you should restore it as it will probably save you battery life.

Re: KT747 KTweaker: share and discuss your setting

I wanted to join the share settings party... I've spent all morning tweaking each voltage step. It goes from roughly -125 mv on the top steps down to -75mv on the low end. My chip doesn't like going really low on the low frequencies.

Options won't be set on boot, give it a try. If it crashes then voltages are too low. If so reboot and when you re open ktweaker tell it not to apply voltages.

My governor adjustments should do very well for battery life.

Here it is:

http://db.tt/N5irk3hC

Let me know if it gives you trouble.

Edit: oh the purpose of doing this was done ktoon had said he changed something that would allow voltages to actually go lower that -125 when above 1086mhz. I'm still on 4.1 so i can't go lower than -125.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Re: KT747 KTweaker: share and discuss your setting

Using your suggested sample rate and having good results. I had been extremely low on sample rate and started to experiment a lot and found though a low sample rate can drop back to idle faster its less accurate when load rises very quickly and causes cpu mhz to reach near max more than necessary because the time spent calculating was too long and keeps raising mhz instead of waiting a little before deciding to rise again. So the 70k seems better ive been all over low to high. Im using 75k and it seems to be awesome. Thank you for the suggestion. I use my thresholds a bit higher than you but am using similar tunabkes in Ktoonservative. Cheers thanks. I think this may stabalize undervolt better, as i drop a lot of mv its wasn't stable as i would prefer, having much better luck on 75k as i think the biggest benefit is slower cpu speed switching so voltage is applied and doesn't flip up and down too fast causing instability. My upper frequencies i can match to yours similarly but like Baconator my phone similarly doesnt stand for low mv on low mhz. 700mV ranges seem to always be untouchable for mine.

For a long time i used 2106mhz, now looking at the stock volt table i notice a nice volt range for the given mhz. 1026mhz i am using now as a max and overall it hasn't slowed me down as much as one may think.

I get more drain when battery and cpu temps rise, much lower max seems to help keep from going well over 100F often.
