Still tinkering and I have been all over the place pushing performance, pushing better scaling better battery life. Here is where i am at for now.

I want core 2 on before raising mhz so i can use the lowest mhz i can at a given time. Even though two cores take twice the power i see two things the cpu uses lower mhz vs single core and usually OVER half the mhz. The other thing i see is not new to the idea of multi core. For every mhz in dual core vs single two processes can complete in the same given time vs just on processing core. So as for efficiency imo i will always emphasize dual core if I can.

This is while using phone for hours installing apps and doing titanium backup plus more. I didnt have phone idle long hence only 30min in deepsleep.

The past hour typing on Tapatalk, playing music and downloading.

Thats all i can say for now guys. I use the above and I don't get reboots. As Freecharlesmanson states 75mv is pushing it and may be as far as is stable in most cases. Ive seen others post they use 96-384 at 775mv or even lower, i call bull and say they haven't tested or used their phone thorough enough to know if its stable.

My logic on volts as follows. Acrooss the board - 25mv from 96-2106mhz non issues. - 50mv across board ive had issues. So all are dropped - 25mv and 96-144 i dropped by - 50mv. 1500mhz + i dropped at most - 60mv as farther causes issues on my max mhz. This is whats working for me and no there have not been reboot issues ever since for me.

Does this setup ramp or scale in an instant... No. Does it prevent use of high mhz in most circumstances other than full heavy load, Yes. Does it still hotplug at such a low threshold, yes all the time cpu gets back to idle use. Most times many many times a second.

This is my config and not designed for others as in I am happy with its function I am not looking to make it something else.

As mentioned been all over the board. Closing and widening threshold gaos, lowering and raising thresholds and this is where i end up closest to. I am not set on this being final config but it will likely look similar.

Edit: im using 11 down hotplug which did great to keep dual core on till load got closer to idle. I may place it above down threshold but below up threshold hotplug.

Aggressive settings there how is that sampling rate working out

Have you been able to decern any battery savings my only concern would be tyre interaction with streaming processes like a2dp or video streaming I sometimes found the could trigger those race conditions we discussed. I rested on most of my settings I discussed with you. Do you think the freq step is counter acting the sample rate?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Biggie Da Dansa:
what theme are you using
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
It seems to save me battery in all scenarios the cpu was hitting max frequencies and staying there not from constant load but even medium. Like i would launch Nova 3 and mostly on the settings we discussed i would sit at max. As configured now it pegs at 96-1ghz+ then only on occasion peaking to max and dropping right back to a fair speed again.

I dont think frequency step is counter acting sample rate but I did notice at the 40-50k range using that small a frequency step it wouldn't ramp up as fast as I am looking for.

I followed sample rate and some thresholds up and down determining i will be okay under 20k sample if and only if i have higher values on up threshold and also on down threshold. I tried as low as 11k. At 10k nothing stabalized speed wise. So i may stay at 12500-15000.

I made another revision to the above last night and its seeming to be even better with limiting use of unneeded mhz.

75 down threshold and 75 up threshold hotplug.

So far so good only thing that pegs full speed is heavy loads in apps or consistent workloads like decompression of files. Even a full verification on Titanium Backup is dropping close to idle in between peaks of load and meeting the workload with mhz only as needed.

Im going to continue to observe. Ive been using 250ms refresh rate on my monitoring app to really watch hotplug and load per core.

I still think minimum frequency step is important and helpful. It does need emphasis on lower sample rates to be effective though. 40-50k is still fine but may warrant having second to minimum frequency step so you can reach target in half the time. Since i want minimum frequency step i went as low as possible on sample rate and doesn't get jumpy as long as thresholds are set high enough and that there is enough distance between them. If the thresholds in this low sample rate scenario is even as low as the 15% difference we discussed with your config it shows the same jumping back and forth you observed. So it seems if you go one direction or the other the other tunables need to follow suit in their own way.

I know what video streaming is what is a2dp? I played media under this config and i found it doesn't force mhz too low which we know would be counter productive and not allow acceptable performance for media.

I noticed it does a good job preventing mhz from jumping by not dropping a core early while there still is a workload.

If you can think of a few things to check on, on this config let me know Ill gladly look into any aspect of its handling.

I'm running galaxy s3 fre3 rom with ktoonz kernel. However, every time I run ktweaker I get a message saying my settings don't match I'm thinking when I make the changes it eventually reverts back... See attached pics. Any thoughts on what going on
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freecharlesmanson:
Honestly I don't use ktweaker. I wrote it all into scripts

It's because I include a script to automatically manage cpu. You need to remove 70cputweak from /system/etc/init.d

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
I don't know squat regarding all this but I tried these settings and I get very little deep sleep. No deep sleep for me means a bit more battery drain. Not a terrible drain as it was running at 96mhz.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freecharlesmanson:
Hate to tell you, something is wrong then
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
I changed the settings and my phone goes into deep sleep which it did very little of with the previous settings. No problems with deep sleep prior to using those settings. Guess my phone just doesn't play well with those settings.

Maybe I'll try again after seeing how my phone does over night.

Only thing I changed was governor settings. I tried the last settings posted by mw86 and my phone had very little deep sleep. I haven't had a deep sleep issue except when I tried the last governor settings posted by mw86 See attached screen shot from last night while I was sleeping using different governor settings.

Not trying to cause any confusion or a problem, I was only trying to help out by posting my experience using those settings. Guess I will try the problem settings again and see how it goes.

See attached, this time mw86 last posted settings worked, went into deep sleep. Don't know why it didn't work before as the governor settings are the only changes I made. Oh well, working now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
Open KTweaker, click on general, then click on Governor Adjustments, this is where you make the changes. See attached for mw86 last posted settings. It's also on page 14 of this thread.

I'm not overclocked but UV -50 for all possible choices. With UV your mileage may vary, not all phones are exactly the same, what works for me might not work for you, the reverse is also true, what works best for you might not work for me. The screen shot of my voltages covers the lowest mhz settings for illustration.

Hope this helps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Last question this will go for any of the governors right or it just one u have to use?

jelly bombed SGS3 jelly bomber 4life
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
. The settings are for using ktoonservative governor. Ktoonservative governor settings was discussed in detail in this thread, don't know if it would work with any other governors. Sorry I left that part out of my post.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
One thing, nice setup, you have 486mhz at a lower milivolt then the ones below or above it maybe you should match it to whats next to it like 895mv.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Its an extended battery and the 40 hours was not since last charge as that was just showing operational frequencies used by setting governor as i have. 2106mhz is actually at 8min in 40 hours and thats just because i backed up an app or two in Titanium Backup as well as updated stuff. Most times you see it runs 96-1000mhz on average most times 96-384.

Here is since yesterday sorry i mentioned battery life i should of posted this with it to clarify. So 40 hours was just since last reboot and those frequencies were anything it ran in that 40hour time period. Below is as of right now.

Edit: :/ wow i don't know what i was thinking... It does add up to 40 hours on battery. Hehe. Lol. Its the cheap OnIte extended battery. It was barely anything in cost and is rated at 4500mah. It doesn't get good reviews. Makes phone thicker too. I use phone a lot most days so i got it so i didn't have to care about using too high mhz or being on it extended periods. Still sorting apps i think i could use to get rid of a few still running lightly in background at all times. There is always room for improvement.

Not to make anyone Jelly but here on day four on same charge :) only time ibhit that 2.1ghz was a titanium backup i did and a few bluetooth file transfers with a friend. The rest was browsing, tapatalk and music, messages etc.

Of course its a extended battery as mentioned, the onite 4500mah thats been reviewed so badly.

Mw86 even though your battery has bad reviews it seems to be working well for you. Thank you for posting your settings so others can use them.

I'm using the stock battery, 28 hours, screen on time 54 minutes, 75% charge left. No maximum set when screen is off, OC to 1809mhz. I usually have screen off max set at 810mhz. I have Titanium Backup scheduled to backup while I'm sleeping which

it did during during this 28 hour period.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] figarofigaro:
Powers out. No phones or internet. But cell towers are up.

I hooked up my 19v drill battery (it wasn't fully charged, my multimeter read around 14v) to a car AC usb adapter. You know those adapters you plug into a cigarette lighter.

From the USB port out I read 6v. Which is more than enough.

The phone recognizes its charging. But very slowly.

I turned the phone off, to let it keep charging... and I booted into recovery and it read 30%, then 20 minutes later I booted into the GUI and the phone quickly climbed down to 10% battery.

How can I keep this thing charged until I find a power source in the morning?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
My advice is let it sleep and charge or turn it off and let it charge. Sometimes if you are using it on a car charger it will drain more than charge. Use it minimally while charging

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Try and find a public area that may have power. Shelters are setup all over the place. Either that or fire up your generator if you have one.

I feel your pain, dude... Being from the south, I'm used to hurricanes every year but most go a little further south like the gulf of mexico and the coasts etc. We usually deal with light tornados (spun off of/generated by the near-by hurricane) but they only knock over a few trees. A couple of years ago, my town dealt with a F5 tornado (basically as powerful as they come) and ravaged many areas. It was pretty scary! Thank goodness most were okay but there were a few casualties here and there. Basically, all I can say is be prepared for stuff (even if you live in a loft/apartment in NYC). When this **** settles, get a backup battery/charger thingy (2000 mah are available at a fair price and even 6000 ones are there if needed), shortwave radio, water, flashlights, meds, just basic survival gear. I know it sounds nutty but it has come handy in outages and might save your life. I live in the suburbs outside a city with 1 mil metro pop and not out in the country so I rarely have issues without power for long but you never know what might happen... I hope everyone on the upper east coast is safe! All of us in the southeastern US have you in our thoughts and prayers (IF you're into that sort of thing. I'm not religious but prayer doesn't hurt anything. Positive thoughts are always nice!) and wish you all well!

So I have had the Epic 4G since it came out over 2 years and with how much it chugs, the terrible battery life, and the now cracked screen, its time for an upgrade.

Yes they are completely soft, but from my experience with my HOX they are plenty thick enough to protect the screen when I dropped it. Kind of like a synthetic felt kind of fabric which cleans the screen every time you push/pull your phone from the pouch; quite a tight fit though... headphones never really fit in too well. Still, best pouch I ever owned and much better than a bully case. Had a bright orange one myself, sucker for bright colours :-p hope that helps.
