i had benchmarks showing that i was oc'd up to 1.4 before but cpuspy showing me at only 1.3 i would trust the cpuspy info. sounds to me like something isnt quite right with your settings. i know you said you used setcpu to enable your frequencies so feel free to toss this out the window, but the first time i set up my voltage control settings everything wasnt fully configured correctly. as the OP states you have to follow the instructions to the letter. for me that mean clicking apply for now every time it said apply for now. like i said, youre using a different app to get your OC and i never had any issues with the other kernel getting the frequency i wanted with setcpu, but if you arent doing exactly what the OP states, you shouldnt feel frustrated when you are seeing funny results.

my advice, give voltage control a whirl and see if you get the same feedback from cpuspy.

thanks for the post!
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
1.4 is an insta freeze with Voltage Control. I only used SetCPU on accident because I was switching back and forth between kernels seeing which one was the smoothest. The benchmarks are on par with my previous phones running 1.4 and everything is much faster & smoother than with 1.3ghz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tpike:
i will have to bump to someone more experienced with kernels and such. i personally couldnt 'feel' much difference between 1.3 and 1.4 although my scores did bump a bit. im steadily on 1.3 personally cause my epic is part troll evidentally and cant handle the high octane of the 1.4
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
Running @ 1.4GHz using Voltage Control with no UV. If I start UV'ing i get freezes but idc about UV'ing really so whatever. This kernel is beast mode! Everyone always comments about my phone's "snappiness".
[Epic 4G Android Development] tpike:
thats what its all about!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
that's my goal :) i'm thinking about putting in the interactive governor...if it helps as much as it does on my nook then it will be a nice treat

If you could do that and get it working, I'll give you a dollar. :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I have been on SetCPU since day 1 of Genocide. I know....not supposed to be. Supposed to use VC. 1400/200 on demand is perfect for me. Only uses 1400 when needed. Now 1400/200 on conservative usually tops at 1120 occasionally 1300. If I run 1300/200 on demand it gemerally uses 1120 most. Been using the combos for weeks. The governors on SetCPU don't allow much 1300 use for me for some reason. If your phone likes 1400, Set CPU ON Demand is a great setup. Run CPU Spy with that combo and you'll see. Let me try and post a screenie
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Ok, started with a 92% battery here. Was walking around and using phone at a farmers market so...moderate use. Maybe a modification needed here...obviously with Viper Pad,Beejive,SPB Shell, and Zeam running at all times
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Now, I have my minimun set at 200 so I don't know if the 100 registering is staging down to deep sleep but the On Demand grabs that 1400 and flies only when needed and settles nicely at the low number
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
EDIT....DOUBLE POST...MY BAD!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
it's because it is still dropping to 100mhz...i've fixed conservative to not do that but on demand still does it

Well since I haven't had a single issue with phone not waking up, I will stick with "on demand" Thanks for the clarification Rodderik

Supposedly a new update is coming out with new features and stability fixes this week. Probably this weekend it will be up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pwn3d:
Got a new phone because the old one was lagging like crazy.

My new volts:

1000: 50

800: 75

600: 75

400: 150

200: 150

100: 200

Amazing with no freezes and the battery never dies ;D
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
So whats the best recommended setup? Just asking since im planning to use this kernel as my daily now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
Hey slade it really depends on the phone. I'm running the full boat (1400-100) with slight under volt, 25mv on 1400-1120, 50mv 1000-200, and 100mv on 100. I was using bonsai 3.01 and this kernel and it was flawless, now on bonsai 4.01 I have seen a few glitches, but they are definately rom based. Averfage battery life 12-14 hours with atleast 1 hour of screen on full brightness. Wifi adds more drain but still an easy 10 with wifi on. Hope it helps.

Question ...anyone running 1400/200 or 100 conservative but it doesn't go above 1000? Or is that what its supposed to do?!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
Derp.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Everyone's allowed a noob question every now and then....lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
1.You MUST do extended testing for yourself my friend.

2. READ THE OP FOR THE PROPER INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO UNDERVOLT PROPERLY.

3. Report any errors that are kernel related only.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
John you're not a newb, noob probably. But you've been doing this undervolting and volting for some time and I know this to be true because I've SEEN YOU! :) :).... back to the question. Can you elaborate more clearly? What is the exact issue here....
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
haven't messed with the undervolting since i don't want cause some issues. Just lol did the stock way just increase it to 1300 and got some good results. I would undervolt but its a hassle. I just need something quick when doing multitasking especially editing files.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Ok, if U am using SETCPU, which simply works better on my phone, if I set it to 1400/200 "conservative", CPU Spy shows nothing being used above 1000. 1400/200 "on demand" uses 1400 when "demanded" and 1120 some but not 1300 or 1200 at all. Voltage Control just doesn't like my phone and SET's, on demand" uses 1400 less "only when really needed and drops to a lower state quicker thus helping with battery. My phone loves 1400 overclock and freaks even when undervolted 25!
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Hey Slade, if you read my last post you can see I don't even undervolt and battery life is good. Start at 25 undervolt especially at the higher states. People get away with undervolting the lower states more. If your phone likes 1400, if you can undervolt any more than 25 on the 1400 state, you are lucky. Now 1120,800,600,400,etc. People are all getting different numbers start low levels of undervolt and get each state stable before doing the next....and don't press "set on boot" until you are SURE its stable. It takes time so don't get frustrated of you get a freeze here or there....
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
Are you sure that you enabled those steps above 1000ghz in voltage control and applied correctly? Also, make sure you reset the timers within cpu spy before testing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I swore I did that but let me give it another spin since I have a day to play today. I hope a new ROM drops to try out today...lol. Idle time makes me stare at XDA lately.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
@Custodian...what scheduler are you using? Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
I guess my phone is one of the lucky ones undervolted 1400 to 50 and i got some signficant scores. Whats the best test(s) for testing out kernels. Currently im only using quadrant but i don't trust it since the 2.1 days where we got 3k results lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Try smartbench 2010 for overall and Linpack for pure CPU speed. Smartbench runs a bunch of tests. The top number is CPU score, the bottom is GPU...graphics/gaming. Plus you can see how it stacks up against other model phones. Quadrant can be tricked. Its good to compare roms on your phone though like if you try a different rom and get lesser number then it gives you an idea. Quadrant is good for comparing kernels/roms against your own phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BopChie:
^ ^what he said^ ^.... even if u dont plan on playing with voltages you need to enable the frequencies you want to use with this kernel via voltage control in the "states" pull up tab, then set the "limit clock to" in the voltage control app accordingly... then dont play with the voltages, just hit menu then save as boot settings.... from there setcpu will work past 1000mhz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I did that. My phone just flat out likes SetCPU better. Been running 1400/200 since testing Genocide 1. No problems with on demand ececpt a freeze or two watching a movie or hours of youtube. Voltage Control (even with no undervolt) would sometimes freeze with certain apps and on shutting the phone down. Strange I know. Also, it would stay at 1400 for much longer than it does on SetCPU. Now I could get some undervilt at 1000,800,600,400 but I just couldnt get a failproof setup. My particular phone may not like the undervolting as much as others but my battery life on Genocide 1 is as good or better with SetCPU "on demand" than when I was running earlier versions of Genocide. I guess I am just lucky that way. If I even undervolted 1400,1300, 1200 by 25, it froze on the spot before I could press "apply for now" I am not complaining one bit. I have such stability with current setup and good battery life. I still will toy with Voltage Control on occasion but end up having same issues. Strange phone I guess. At least I have one that likes 1400. I always have a spare battery charged anyway for those long days when I use my phone so much I end up getting a headache. Lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] BopChie:
i hear ya... i thought you meant when using setcpu it was locking at 1000 even when setting 1400
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
It was on "conservative" at least the short time I ran it. If I ran Smartbench or Quadrant I was getting 1000 type scores and CPU Spy wouldn't show anything above 1000 used. Maybe today I will roll with 1400/200 "conservative" for the day,run some benchmarks,etc and see if it still happens or not. If so, I will surely grab some screenshots.
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
Should locking my phone automatically put me into deep sleep if my phone isn't doing anything?

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue that i just started noticing 24 hours ago. Time without sleeping on my phone has been since I unplugged it from charging and I checked CpuSpy and it's been @ 200MHz w/o stepping down that whole time. Noticed my battery was dropping at a higher rate than usual. Now if deep sleep isn't supposed to kick in right away as soon as I lock it I can start looking at some other things but I thought I remember it behaving this way. One thing i noticed deep sleep works when I reboot [ill lock the phone.. unlock it and notice deep sleep time increment] and idk if it's an app that i use regularly or what but then shortly after I don't see it doing this anymore.

To test I have undone all my OC and im just running 1.0GHz for now just to rule out the settings. Using CFQ scheduler still though.

K it's been a bit now and it seems ok atm. I will keep testing and monitoring to see if I notice anything.

I guess a better question is how much time without sleep do you all get vs hours unplugged?

Hmm... ok deep sleep is bugging on me again. Weirdness. ROM issue?

I noticed some ringtones on my sdcard that cause winamp and my settings (when applying) to freeze and maybe caused my notification alert to stop playing. Normal stock ringtones were ok.

Could my sdcard cause my phone not to sleep?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I swear Voltage Control has done strange things to me since day 1. It doesn't like my phone. I would set top state at 1400 and it didn't go there. I just roll with SETCPU and have been since day 2. I am at 1400/200 but it still drops to 100 on "on demand"
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
If its been working for you maybe there's an app constantly running or something. What about Gallery? That's been giving people issues where it runs all the time
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Normal deep sleep for me is about 72%. I notice if I get a notification and don't clear it, it sits at 200 Mhz until I at least acknowledge the notification (like Word feud). Don't know if this helps P.

[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:

[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
John what theme, rom are you using
[Epic 4G Android Development] burgerpimp07:
Yeah, having it plugged in keeps it from going into deep sleep. You can't run your phone @ 100MHz?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
The new kickass Urban Fury (that comes with Rodderiks kernel) Bionix Black EC05 4.1 theme. I switch between SBB shell 3d launcher in the pics and Zeam in this pic....
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
So you're using zeam launcher?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JMMusic:
This kernel makes me scratch my head. I get worse benchmarks than I have ever gotten (even worse than stock), but it is noticeably snappier in real performance than stock, and comparable to Twilight (which gave me much higher benchmark scores).

Whatever... I'll stick with perceived speed over benchmark speed any day. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I love Zeam. Its light, lt lets you add most used icons and drop them in the bottom. The three pics above the last one with Zeam was Shell 3d. But yes Zeam is my daily
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Are you using Voltage Control?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Nope :( Can hit 1.3Ghz but at 100 Mhz it won't wake from sleep and have to pull the battery. It's OK as long as I know it is normal. Just figured it would charge faster if someone figured out how to force deep sleep while charging.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
It should be the benchmarks that cause the head scratching - in my personal experience, they have never been a good measure of real world performance. I either have good benchmark scores, or smooth and snappy performance - but never both. Genocide is far from the best kernel on my phone according to the benchmarks, but it is, in reality, the best one I've used
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasLTE:
FYI = this is my first time using this kernal and it has been solid on my phone ( I had problems with Twilight Zone v1.1 and had to use v1.0.4 due to recurring freezes ). I got this kernal coutesy of the Urban Fury ROM which is really cool for any of you guys who love this kernal and want to try a new ROM
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I am sure know this already but some phones can only handle 200 minimum just like some an only handle 1.2 or 1.3 max

That means the thor is going to slap you with his hammer once rodderik has finished intergrating the latest cwm into his kernel.

/salute rodderik
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
haha...well DRockstar has been working hard to get us the new CWM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13693020

i've helped him out some but he has done a lot of work to get it pulled together for us and we've tested it pretty good.

two things you should make note of with the recovery

1 older nandroid backups don't always restore correctly without some work so once you have the new cwm i'd recommend doing a new nandroid

2 button mappins are slightly different from older versions of CWM. Volume buttons = Up and Down, Power or Camera = Enter, Captive Back = Back. Captive Home also works as enter but not correctly from the main menu so if you hit it and the screen disappears hit Captive Home again

or Captive Back to bring it back.

as soon as i finish the little project im working on now ill start implementing the new cwm into the kernel

also it does allow us to use rom manager again so all the dev's will more than likely get all that setup for us to use again...and we fixed the redirector :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] bradbutter:
