Open ktweaker and select general. Next you'll see enable oc steps and lock frequencies, select both, then you'll see two sliders. Move them to max and min. I would back out completely and go back in, then check your voltage table again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
The above is all you need to do to get all voltage table to show. You were seeing 384-1500mhz table and we posted the 96-2106mhz table. No harm no foul. We all learn by asking questions and answering them for others.

mcluvin1065 I misunderstood your post, you said something about missing the sliders on the bottom, I took that to mean the lowest frequency ranges. Sorry for causing you unnecessary work re-flashing the kernel. Glad you got things resolved, no thanks to my bum advice.

Today I had a couple of reboots when opening up an app, happened with different apps. I'm renaming smd and semdexe back to their correct names. I don't think this is causing the issue but I want to rule it out. I'll do a follow up post later either way

No worries man atleast you didnt go sending me on a search like all noobs with obvious questions..

If i wanted to jump to another rom like killjoy would a simple backup of ktweaker settings suffice? Im almost sure i would have to go back to es file explorer and rename all the files correct?

I get that but only when not using the correct charger. I have a much longer cord on a charger from my old droid 2 global that I use sometimes and the symptoms your describe happens every time, except it never gets off the red light even though charge indicator is at 100%
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
No. I'm talking about the files that need to be renamed in particular. Yes you could use TK Mod. But I would suggest doing it manually at this time. The files, and steps to rename them are in the OP. But I'll save you a trip. Just click the spoiler ;)

From the OP

There are some files on your TouchWiz phone that need to be renamed in order to maximize the battery life of your phone. There has been some debate on whether or not this is necessary, but for now we would recommend renaming these files to ensure that there is no chance of excessive battery drain.

Part 1:

These steps are only necessary on TouchWiz ROMs, however you can also do this on AOSP as well:

1. You must have ROOT. You will need to have a root enabled file explorer on your phone (ES File Explorer works very well and you can get it from the play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en). When you get it, open it up and go the the settings and scroll all the way down until you see the Root Settings. Go in there and enable ALL of the root settings.

2. After that is done, navigate to your root folders using the Folder Up icon at the top. Once you are in your root folders, navigate to /system/bin and locate the following files. You will need to rename them with a ".bak" at the end of the filename

gsiff_daemon --> gsiff_daemon.bak

mpdecision --> mpdecison.bak

qosmgr --> qosmgr.bak

smd --> smd.bak

smdexe --> smdexe.bak

Renaming these files will not harm your phone. Many users rename these files every time they flash a rom, and no damge is done.

Also, some ROMs come with these files renamed or deleted entirely, so if you don’t find a file, don’t be alarmed.

You have to do this every time you flash the ROM and/or Kernel.

If you feel uncomfortable doing this yourself, you can use the TK-MOD (see Downloads section) and it will handle this for you.

Part 2:

Stopping mpdecision from being called:

1. Open terminal emulator and type the following code:

su

2. When terminal emulator asks for root permission hit 'Grant' or 'Allow'.

3. At the # prompt type:

stop mpdecision

Using Rom Toolbox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox) we will make a script that will stop mpdecision from being called at each boot so you don't need to use terminal emulator each time

1. Open Rom Toolbox and scroll down to the Scripter option

2. In the scripter, click the “+” button in the top right corner, then select 'Create'

3. Type a name for our new script, lets call it “stop mpdecision”

4. In the commands enter the following text:

#!/system/bin/sh

stop mpdecision

5. Hit the disk icon to save it

6. Select the script that you just created and a dialog box should pop up, select set at boot

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
How is it that some people are able to run with low voltage settings and have 5 day battery life, but some phones can't? Don't we all technically have the same phone? I just bought a zerolemon battery and the most I've had is a little over 2 days battery life and when I try to run low voltage my phone always freezes and reboots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Same phone but they ate not all created equal... Some CPUs are rev1 and it guys all the way to rev4... Chips are all of different quality, that is why some phones can handle more than others
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
It's the Silicon that the cpu was made from etc and not all handle the same because manufacturing is not such a precise process that it is exact spec to next processor. The silicon that tends to have more voltage leaks will tend to fail overclock and handle less voltage.

Since there are 100's of variables in usage patterns it is very common on same battery to be worlds apart in battery life. The 5 days is an extreme frugal use of all power drawing hardware in the device.

So with that said, when first buying your device is there a way to pick and choose or you just get what you get?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
They all pass some amount of tests before leaving factory floor for sale so they all meet complete stock specs off the line and that is all they ever guarantee. Some have issues stock and often get exchanges for a working phone in those cases.

I don't think they ALL get tested. I think they do batch testing but ya. There's know way of knowing just what kind of quality chip you've got until you start taking it past stock requirements and find the instability points

What would be the most important battery saving parameter in one of these settings?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Sampling rate and up thresholds are usually the biggest effects on scaling and preventing high mhz when uneeded is the biggest factor in battery life we can control. Other factors like brightness can only be diminished so far before moving from usable to unusable and therefore those avenues are more limited when it comes to saving power. Heed the warnings posted, undervolting will only yield small gains and comes with chance of hard to notice errors including network issues. Far more is to be gained in a nicely tuned governor and matching tuned scheduler. From there best option is to limit the os and apps from being active unless necessary which will help lower wake locks, allow cpu to hit sleep states better, lower ram consumption, improve I/O bandwidth available and reach that goal of battery savings.

Calling it a night on TKmod been at it for hours since sun down. Got a nice refined list of build props and all reported issues have been considered. Rerick and I will work together to futher refine the list. I have added a few more too. Also changes in and additions to the sysctrl initd will be worked on. I plan to add a few tweaks beyond systctrl as well. I will no longer call the script 68tweaks anymore as it is being redone and deserves to be called by a real name as that was for a preliminary start on initd when I started on it months ago. It will now be installed in the future as 99TKmod. Cheers, this teammate needs sleep.

Alright so as promised here are the results of my first Ktoonsez Kernel Tweak. This is a Wheatley (Modified OnDemand) Governor and SIO I/O Scheduler combo. Below are screenshots. This is all on a ZeroLemon Battery 7000mah running Wicked v10 for Tmo (Twiz based rom). When I first created the tweak I had a lot of wake-lock issues from google service framework however after some serious digging and some modifications I have eliminated all unnecessary pwl/kwl. In total I got what I call 15.5 Hours of Total User Interaction Time which is Screen On + Voice Calls + Media Server [I goto the gym alot and listen to GoogleMusic Radio]. I will post the bin file shortly if anyone is interested. Also before I forgot this is one of the most snappiest / no-lag setups I have used. I am calling it SimplySmooth =)

Adaptive is another ondemand based governor from Samsung.

It does a lot more scaling based on latency, haven't used it much myself.

In the near future I may add hot plugging support to more governors including ondemand and adaptive.

Thanks, I am continuing to make tweaks.. Any suggestions for sampling rate?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Although I've rarely used the adaptive governor, I've noticed it to be a balance between battery and performance. It basically attempts to reduce the latency of increased clock speeds so the system can be more responsive towards interactive workloads but also decrease power consumption during middle operation levels.
