Just that one setting so don't go looking for some real difference.

And this will be my last release for a while now as I got lots of other stuff to do so no time for this the following 2 weeks.
[LG Optimus 2x] kfallz:
Hmm strange then.. which baseband are you using? 30A or B?
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
I did some testing with gaming , played 30 minutes NTFS most wanted at 1200 MHz had battery was at 30°C , so cold and no lagg at all.

So if your phone gets hot make sure there isn't any app running in the background stressing the CPU.

He-hey!

One weekend away and here goes on an update storm! Well, already tested the RF 1.2 with 260 swap activated and can report only good things! Smooth as silk, with the new 4.6 (only one thing, there is still Sithlord written everywhere in aroma :laugh: ) better than ever! You can give Yourself a rest for a while, because I cannot imagine a better combo :victory:

Re: [KERNEL]CivZ SkyWalker_RF1.2 (MAX OC 1.544GHz) for ICS / New bootloader

Just my findings, the 1.2 made my phone very hot while charging it on USB car charger, and it wasn't really charging with waze maps running (1000MHz default settings), even after turned on the fast charge.

Then I reverted to 1.0, and using the same settings running waze the phone charges even with fast charge off. So I think 1.2 uses a lot of juice with screen on. Of course there's no problem since I'm sticking with 1.0, just FYI.

Re: [KERNEL]CivZ SkyWalker_RF1.2 (MAX OC 1.544GHz) for ICS / New bootloader

Well, I never touch these settings because in my big country there's a lot of places with only gsm coverage.

Anyway, the toaster feature only happens on 1.2 on my device. I thought it could be related with 2d oc, since this changed between 1.0-1.2
[LG Optimus 2x] saaavikk:
No problem

No problem for me...tested only calling traffic but in a car with bluetooth connected car hands-free. Even tried to charge the phone. For me a normal drain, no toaster. The device only gets little bit hot when heavy internet traffic, regardless if I use wifi or 3G connection, but still, that was a normal behaviour on all ICS roms, I think. For waze I suggest using conservative or powersave governor(or use settings from lulzactive in Skywalker 1.0) There is no need for high performance. While gaming it's considerably cooler (default lulzactive 1.2 settings), than with Sithlord and definitely gaming performance is better than skywalker 1.0 in clock to clock comparison. :cyclops:

[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
Will take that in account for next release, will revert back to MAX1504 MHz as 1544 needs more default power, So this way I can drop volatge on the rails.

Pengus77 pm'd me about voltage steps , they only except steps of 10mV and not 5mV so the voltage table will be changed to that.

EDIT:

And pengus77 mentioned that I needed to change some more stuff so the min voltage is 700mV , so I did that , now this is really the lowest and not just shown in a app but really applied.
[LG Optimus 2x] saaavikk:
Do You think it can be in connection with maximal oc?
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
Yes , when you wnat to OC higher the rail voltages need to be changed also for stability.

But 44MHz isn't worth the higher voltages so I will revert back to 1504 as max so I can drop rail voltages.

Been testing new beta RF1.3 here and score is as high as RF1.2 so no worry.

I also added modded LionHerat governor , very battery friendly settings but I got a 8750 point on antutu so not bad for these battery friendly settings.

It drops really quick to low frequency when there is no load.

[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
BETA- SkyWalker-RF1.3_24RH

NEW BETA

SkyWalker_RF1.3_24RH-BETA1 (see attachments)

Reverted MAX OC to 1504MHz (this way I could drop rail voltages so it will stay cooler, settings of RF1.0)

New Voltage table (no 5mV steps as pengus77 mentioned the regulator doesn't except 5mV steps)

Real min voltage is now 700mV (again thanks for pengus77 pointing me this out that board power and regulator had to be modded)

Best CPU control app when you want to UV is free for XDA members SETCPU , download 2.24 or buy it, SUPPORT the devs! (it allows you to type in voltage changes and not only slide), Remember only steps of 10mV are real values , if you apply a step of 25mV it will actually be 20mV. So use setcpu to type in voltage steps of 10mV , 20mV , 30mV, ...............

New Governor , LionHeart , tweaked by me to be very battery friendly but I still had 8750Points in antutu so it is really good balanced. It drops fast to lower frequency if cpu load is decreased.

Please test stability with new voltage table , if you use a app like antutu witch only allows -25mV steps remember that -25mV is 20mV in reality, -50mV is correct , -75mV is 70mV in reality and so on.........So again I recommend setCPU.

Thanks Pengus77 for pointing me this out.

Benches

After few benches and real life testing, it seems to me, like we can dump the interactive governor. It has a lower performance than Your battery tweaked lionhearth, not to mention for speed tweaked lulzactive. And it seems it's most battery hungry, from tested gov. For now, the governor question is for me solved. :confused: ...or is it?
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:
Hmm.. Sir, we are really thankful that you're supporting our device(SU660) too and it will be really helpful if you could work with Pengus77 on the fixes that you used to port P990 Kernel to our device, so maybe he could also do the same with Kowalski Kernel for our people currently on CM/JB based ROM :D
[LG Optimus 2x] saaavikk:

WTF??? This a thread about ICS kernel from CIVATO... show a little more respect!
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
I will be short on this:

Ask pengus77, he is the father of his supurb kernel so it is up to him to decide if he wants to do this. (I think he already answered the question in the SU660 section)

I know what he means , someone compiled a kowalski kernel for the su660 without asking pengus77. That is not done if you ask me.

Yeah maybe I dump the dynamic mode on the interactive governor as I think it is making it more battery hungry, I'm also surprised of the Lionheart governor , I tweaked it and the results are very good making it my new favorite for the moment.

Re: [KERNEL]CivZ SkyWalker_RF1.2 (MAX OC 1.544GHz) for ICS / New bootloader

there's no need to be all grumpy man :)

I pay high respect to the man and his works, and as of now he is the only Dev who can reproduce a fully working P990 kernel for a SU660, that's why I'm asking for his help.

thank you for understanding Mr.Civato :)

as I recall, he is calling out to the guy who recompiled KK for SU660 to work with the fixes and yes, it's not properly recompiled and is full of bugs(far from being usable).

New beta

CivZ_SkyWalker_RF1.3_24RH-BETA4 (beta3 was not released public)

Optimized secondary clocks to be more balanced with the OC.

2d & 3d clock up to 425MHz :D = no great effect on benchmarks but it got a impact on gameplay.

Dynamic mode on Interactive governor lifted so it act more battery friendly when using Interactive governor

RF1.0 voltage settings and MAX OC 1504MHz ( should have impact on heat when charging)

New voltage table (remember the 10mV steps explained in previous beta release and best app is setcpu to type in the 10mV steps)

Please test stability in games and smoothness on default speed 1000MHz , should be supurb.

tested 1.3 beta4

So the latest kernel is stable, no charging bug, no freezes even with -50 UV except lowest freq. The performance with lulzactive gov. is impressive, I have never ever experienced Trainz driver, Real racing 3 and NFS:MW running so smooth on my device clocked only to 1.2 GHz. Off course it gets a bit hotter than with previous kernel revisions, but now I'm using only 1.1 GHz , therefore the battery drain is almost the same, if not less, than with previous versions. For me, this kernel is a keeper!

And no offence, but people here are getting over sensitive, when their device gets hot, I think. For me, I was gaming with the wall charger inserted for a half hour and the temperature rise was normal for the given situation. I think, there is a fail save and the phone can protect itself, when overheating. :fingers-crossed:

EDIT: After 20 min. of charging my phone everything is all right, not hot at all...

Damn, I think it was too obvious in those settings - missed this ^^. Due to this I agree that there's no need!

Re: [KERNEL]CivZ SkyWalker_RF1.2 (MAX OC 1.544GHz) for ICS / New bootloader

Thanks for making ICS usable on our device! Using OC 1.1gHz, lulzactive and row for optimal performance. Also 24ramhack. I deleted Google Now because it was causing major slowdowns.
[LG Optimus 2x] buedi:
Tested latest Beta (came from 1.2) with RH32, interactive, row, -50UV, ZRAM, Ext. Swap, and max IC 1.4 - same settings which I'm using since couple releases (I'm using ext. SWAP and ZRAM since 1.2). But this time I noticed (even after reboot), that my phone got damn hot while charging and having a phone call so that would be able to cook eggs on it.

Update:

No RH 32 -> RH 24, no fast charge. Maybe my diva (mobile) is getting crazy...always possible.

This my phone is getting hot when on charger or just pulled from charger is getting a real placebo effect for some.

The voltage settings on every rail and CPU voltage have never been lower.

It is normal that your phone gets hot when charging but please , numbers people.

The fast charge app or setcpu got a battery temp in it so please look at your temp.

This morning after a full night in the charger I looked at battery temp, 19°C it was, that is freaking cold.

I just plugged in my phone , set on performance governor , Max oc and I will play games .

Report back later on how hot the battery gets...........

Again nothing changed compared to RF1.0 regarding the voltage. And that was the release that was named as the cold one.
[LG Optimus 2x] saaavikk:
who knows?

So there are two of us with no problem. Good, because with all these posts about how hot it gets it became weird as I only have no probs. People, do a cache wipe, dalvik wipe and setcpu settings wipe. Without, it's road to problems... Maybe it's the reworked voltage table, when using -25/-75 presets... :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
Nothing to do with voltage table as it is even to low probably for some phones.

Will build on with a little higher voltage for the highest frequencies and I will revert the secondary clocks , drop 3D to 400MHz and 2D to 350MHz , these were the most popular settings. And then I call it a day.

I played NTFS most wanted with charger plugged in and MAX OC/ performance with No UV, battery got 41°C (30 minutes of gaming). That is it , so not hot for this stressful game at max OCwith performance governor.
[LG Optimus 2x] saaavikk:
It's a pity, that U have to revert the clocks. What about a special version for those without problems. Like I said, this beta was really awsome, silky smooth gaming... :crying:
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
ssst, maybe I do one...:D

EDIT:

I'm trying to find sweet spot for everyone, so next

will have still

the secondary clock tweaks and 2D & 3D = 400MHz. I don't want to give it up....

Voltage bumped a little , UV if you want but it needs to be stable for every one.

And why someone wants to use SWAP260

and

ZRam is a mystery to me? You get what 356MB of extra virtual ram? serious? you think that is good for performance or heat? CPU needs to handle this swapping all the time so CPU is busy all the time = power consumption that is not needed = heat that is created, for what ? I higher number?

In my opinion you use SWAP or ZRAM but not and and. Please for the people doing this , open terminal and type in "free" , see how much swap is beeing used . NEVER 260MB.

EDIT:

CivZ_SkyWalker_RF1.3_24RH-BETA5 (see attachments)

Lowered secondary and GPU clocks a little = 400MHz = (reduced heat that some have as it scales with clocks and voltage)

Bumped voltage of Higher frequencies to gain stability under high stress.

Now test it please , UV , stability , heat ....... and don't report in 10 minutes but try a day.

New Beta RF1.3 BETA6

PLEASE READ INFO BEFORE JUST DOWNLOADING AND FLASHING!!! THAT IS THE LEAST YOU CAN DO!!!

CivZ_SkyWalker_RF1.3_24RH-BETA6 (see attachments)

Lets hope this is the sweetspot for all users.

GPU 2 D & 3D scales from 300 - 450MAX . What does this mean: When you play a stressfull game it will go up to Max 450MHz if it

can

depending on = It scales with voltage and process ID , lower voltage/ lower stress/ lower CPU speed = lower GPU speed. I hope this is the best solution for all users and best for battery/performance.

Minimum UnderVoltage is 650mV from now.

Back to lower default CPU voltage table on higher frequencies.

I tested with -70mV on all frequncies and -100mV on 216MHz , Performance/row and did 2 Antutu benchmarks and 2 quadrant benchmarks in a row (so not normal situations) and it never freezed or crashed so I think it is doing it's job correctly

Battery temp got up to 35-38°C and dropped very fast back to 26°C when benchmarks where done and I just changed governor to LionHeart, but still at Max OC of 1.5GHz

Playing games on max OC , charger plugged in = hot phone because you give it all the power that it wants. It can draw what it wants so CPU and GPU run at max = hot hot hot = It will crash or freeze if it gets to hot , this is a safety feature to prevent your phone from burning up. So please don't complain about this. My suggested max OC is 1200-1300MHz for 24/7 use. I play at MAX oc with LionHeart without any problem but I won't charge at the same time for this reason.

So let's see if it's really the case and btw. the Skywalker IS the best kernel for every ICS rom out there, now. Let's face it, we are all installing custom kernels to squeeze last bit of power that's left in our good old O2X.

Great kernel, considerably cooler than beta4, almost as fast as beta4. Yep, the beta6 is a better all-rounder, it stresses the device considerably less and still manages to be very very smooth...just not ultra-smooth ;) Sticking with it for a while, to compare the battery life.

If it is a kernel panic , nothing to worry about. As I understand it can happen that when you run out of memory (lots of stuff open , running together) a automatic reboot is possible in those cases as the kernel panics. I can set this panic feature to 0 = disable it , now it is at 1, this is LG default. I can set the panic timeout higher like on my tablet , it is set at 10 (meaning 10 seconds)

In my noob understanding it isn't bad that this automated reboot can happen. Maybe you left all other stuff that you were doing open , didn't close them by killing task (holding home button and killing all tasks) , I do this after playing games as they tend to stick into memory.

Re: [KERNEL]CivZ SkyWalker_RF1.2 (MAX OC 1.544GHz) for ICS / New bootloader

Oh..i see...

Btw sir...i observe that swap is very good at multitasking indeed...but i see if the swap full...it took quite a lot time to 'first load memory' in swap after unused...and it got laggy too if swap full and you open new app....well...as you said i might be not killing task...and leave it to android memory management... that's my fault here...

swap isn't good for a long multitasking...it's just use up cpu time to load swap...well..imo this might solved with low swappiness...what's your opinion sir?

For now i'm trying to observing zram..with no swap...afaik it's 96 almost used all the time (maybe because zram is ram cache?) But not bad for multitasking..and it has no time to load if full like swap...and i observe..with zram performance slightly lowered but better multitasking...

I'll keep observe it for a while...:cool:
