Mcm should the new kernels from 12.1. be Linux kernel 3.0.58? I'm asking cause I flashed the newest syiah 4 and it still says 3.0.57 ;)

As to performance, so far the smoothest settings for me are:

Latest CM 10 + Siyah v4 (tho I haven't tested v5 for a long time)

Stweaks:

ROW + Pegasusq (boostpulse 500 Mhz, Smooth scrolling 800 Mhz)

Samsung Gralloc

Fimg2d3x Skia

Scrolling Cache ON

Rest default... (No Mali Touch Boost etc.)

Sooo buttery smooth :)

Undervolting can f*ck up your battery in long term. I used to OV a lot in my previous phone as it didn't have side effects for the moment. It's fine upto -50 but after -100 its dangerous. I'm not saying to do anything, just warning about consequences.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
So I had some freezes today... I guess it's because of uv the cpu -50mv... But it should be possible without a prob.. The 850 @ 100 mhz gpu shouldn't be the problem?! The vm tweaks are disabled btw.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
I've been using -50mv and -75/-125mv for months and I noticeably get better screen on time with -75/-125mv. Idk if my device is getting used to lower voltages and battery life gets placebo.. But sometimes I get like 5/6H screen on time (24H usage) with 2000mah and like 3/4H with stock battery. Without uv-ing I get like 2-3H maybe

But I can't go any lower than -50mv on 500mhz & 1200mhz =P

Funny thing galaxy Note can run on much lower voltages than the s2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Holgott:
One question. When i want to undervolt every cpu step separately in voltage control, are the displayed voltages in VC calculated with the - 25mv from stweaks or are these the stock voltages?and if i change them in VC, which ones getting applied on Boot? Only stweaks settings/only VC or both(vc settings-25mv)? I use siyah v5
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chousuke:
2013-01-11 build is the smoothest so far, with default kernel and mostly unmodified settings (boost 500MHz and nunogil only); I think I will refrain from updating for a while (unless eg. Bluetooth audio gets fixed or something)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] SPBoss:
I have 1175mv for 1200mhz ;) very stable
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
Nah I don't got problems with

62mhz : 800mv

100 : 800mv

133 : 800/850mv

160 : 850mv

200 : 900/950mv

267 : 950/1000mv

400 : 1100mv

maybe if you play games or in long-therm using they can cause problems.. But even when playing shadowgun sometimes and running nenamark2 it was stable.

Use malistats to check if it's the gpu (found on xda)

and I use ''cool tool'' on playstore to check my cpu frequency's :p then u can sort out which frequency it got stuck with so +25mv for that 1

View attachment MaliStatus-0.0.1.apk
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thijssie909:
I'm using -50mv also, pegasusq, thunderbolt, Nunogil VM tweaks. No freezes for two days...

The freezes seem to be pretty random.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
Nope by default Stweaks already has -25mv. Yes VC overrides it, but be sure it's checked on boot or apply it yourself.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

Yea that's my conclusion too when I get freeze's, it's most likely because of many tasks in the background or on boot (with much load) otherwise it's stable for me for weeks.

---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------

Nice=P btw Galaxy Note runs 1100mv for 1200mhz and 1200mv for 1400mhz lol

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2

Current settings for max smoothness:p

Siyahv4 cm10.1

Skia on seeder on/off (testing might not make any sense) , Thunderbolt cfs , nunogil VM

200-1500mhz with uv-ing

Interactive, row

Idle + lpa, sched mc:2 ,2nd core always on

Smooth scaling 1200mhz boostpulse 900mhz

Gpu 160-200-267-400

950-1000-1050-1100mv

Gpu Touch boost 200mhz

Touch move sensetivity : 2(also set 2 in devicr settings)

Force 4x msaa and 2d render

Animation 0.5x

Not so battery friendly ofc, i'll make a battery friendly profile soon maybe. But with this setup browsing is damn fast , no hotplug lagg , and everything is flying =P

Imo the higher max freq the sooner the tasks are finished the faster the cpu goes back 200mhz thus battery saving and also use of 2nd core always on etc balance the load more (prevent overheating). Freqs above 1200mhz are almost never used for my usage and I uv them -50/-75mv

Probably 2nd core off & Aftr+Lpa would be better for deepsleep but i can set 850mv/200mhz and it doesnt really impact my battery life

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
Pegasusq is hotplug so that's a problem,

You can try ondemand(it's default parameters are the most battery friendly gov) Aftr+Lpa & hotplug & sched mc 1or2 for battery. (2 recommended)

Or use pegasusq with the above settings (I guess less battery)

If u want 2 cores always active use ondemand/interactive/conservative

And set idle+lpa & sched mc 2.

But this is less battery friendly because 2nd core won't go to deepsleep.

Hotplug govs cause confusion when setting 2nd core always on it will be disabled

what the hell just happened to default battery life on this rom, from almost 2 days to 15 hours in 1 flash

and no i cant be bothered with undervolting etc etc as i simply dont have time for all of that

MCM GIVE ME MY BATTERY BACK :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
It's up to you ;) Just flash the build you used before :P Developer's always trying to reduce battery drain :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheSpaceManatee:
If you don't like it then revert it its as simple as that this is experimental as stated in thread's title. And if you do not want to revert at least post BBS because asking for battery back in caps is not only rude but really a lack of info for anyone to help you. And if you have no time to undervolt please don't bother about flashing ROMs because undervolting only requires you to press 2 buttons in stweaks as stated before many time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dead0:
thx mate :good: u wouldn't happen to have siyah v4 as well?

ps has anyone noticed since version 20121228, when using pegasusq governor, cpu is constantly in single core mode? it very rarely uses dual cores so it quickly ramps to 1000mhz (which is my selected limit) when a task could be done in dual core at a much lower speed and volt.

CM10 v CM10.1

What I want to know is, I have installed CM10 as a second rom today to compare it too CM10.1, I can't see what people are saying about the difference between the two, maybe, maybe CM10 is a the tiniest more smoother, but then it loses latest camera and quick panel, let's put it this way, there aint a big enough performance increase for going back in time to CM10, I'm glad I tried though because I can now ignore people saying its loads better, when really its a trade off of losing all the new features in favour for barely noticeable improvements in transitions.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
On average I find 10 smoother than 10.1. When you open 20 apps and compare the smoothness I'm sure the average app using CM10 scrolls smoother. But to each his own of course.

I find " all new features" not worth the upgrade, when you also weigh in the things that are (still) better in CM10.

Luckily there is a choice. But it surely does load better, can easily say that because you will ingnore this whole post anyway :angel:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
no, no, you get the wrong end of the stick, it is still there as second rom, I'll be testing over a full week, like I do with anything I want to know more, testing is nowhere near completed, but it is my observations for a days usage!

I regularly have more than 20 apps to clear out of memory on cm10.1, does not give performance issue, I wonder if people are basing their cm10.1 experience on builds over a few weeks old, a lot has improved since then and I'll assume it will continue.

I will of course, like most people here will have noticed, post further updates on how the two compare over the coming week, stayed tuned if you care lol :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Agreed, Dorimanx's kernel works well with some roms and terribly with others, it is simply not as universal as siyah or mcm's modified siyah kernels.

The last good Dorimanx Kernel was a very longtime ago, it was his last build based on Siyah v4, version 7.4.2, it was an awesome kernel, but nothing else since has matched it, if you want to try it then download here:

http://dorimanx.shine.sk/kernels-jb/Kernel_Dorimanx-V7.4.2-JB-MALI-17-11--25-10-12-SGII-PWR-CORE.zip

It won't work for 10.1, but a good chance cm10 will boot with it if it is your primary rom, as there is no dual rom support in this version.
