[Q] UV and power usage at different frequencies - HTC Sensation

Hopefully someone can either confirm my beliefs or clear up any confusion I may be suffering from lol.
If these are my UV settings (just the lower end of the freqs range):
192 MHz > 800 mV
310 MHz > 800 mV
384 MHz > 800 mV
432 MHz > 800 mV
486 MHz > 825 mV
540 MHz > 837.5 mV
Is there any difference in power usage between having my minimum wake frequency set to 432 MHz as opposed to 192 MHz? I am currently under the impression that since both frequencies are set to 800 mV, the end power usage will be the same.
Current Daemon Controller settings are:
Wake Min > 432 MHz
Wake Max > 1026 MHz
Ondemand
Sleep Min > 192 MHz
Sleep Max > 384 MHz
SmartassV2
And using Bricked 1.6 AOSP kernel.
And thanks, of course!

[Q] Phone Reboots Instantly on Incoming Call

Hi XDA,
I recently installed Apex ROM and have tried a couple kernels (Matr1x and Trinity) but it seems that whenever I receive an incoming call AND the screen is off my device reboots.
I am able to receive calls normally when my screen is on. I'm also able to make outgoing calls without any problems.
I suspect that it has something to do with either my minimum frequency or my voltages (i.e. my phone isn't coming out of deep sleep properly), but after raising either/both of them the problem persists.
Has anyone come across this before, or have any suggestions on how to fix this? Would flashing a different radio help (although I've used my current radio on a different ROM without any issues)?
I apologize if this has been asked before. I did a brief search but did not find anything similar to this exact problem.
Some more info:
-ROM: Apex v1.1.3
-Kernel: Trinity (T132-NS-CV-56HZ-ANY-201212623)
-When a call is incoming:
1) The screen remains off, while the capacitive touch keys light up. There is no ringing either.
2) After a few seconds, the phone reboots and the splash animation appears.
What clock speeds are you running at (Min and max)? Are you using deep idle? etc.

Thanks for responding.
The default voltages for Trinity are slightly higher than default because of the bus OC I believe. It was only after I realized I had this problem that I raised the voltages for 100 MHz to 400 MHz a bit.
Anyways, I tried your above voltages but the problem remains.
I'm going to try flashing a couple more kernels (AirKernel, SimpleKernel) and finally my ROM again to see if that helps.

Which kernel are you using presently? It is quite possible if it's a Trinity kernel that your phone simply doesn't support any type of overclock whatsoever. I'd recommend something a bit more "stock-ish" like the CM9 kernel, thalamus or simple kernel. Air kernel is very good too, very solid on my phone and not overclocked in any way by default. Has the stock voltages too.
Ok so apparently it's an issue specific to the Apex v1.1.3 ROM (which I would have realized if I read that thread more thoroughly, doh).
I'm on Euroskank CM9 now and everything seems to be working just fine.
Oh damn, those kind of things happen I guess. Good to know you got skankwich on this ;D

[OPTIMIZATION][UNDERVOLTING] Testing different voltages and CPU behavior

I've asked the mods to close my other thread.
What I'll do in this thread is to test kernels and see which will be the best and or the most reliable undervolting parameters.
I know that each CPU/GPU are different, it will be only a reference for what can be done. I'll run extensive tests, stress test and real life test on the Nexus 7 device 32GB.
I'll reserve a couple of post areas because i want it to be a permanant thread and i put my device at risk for you my firends anyway it is not really an issue lol
I'll do the testing like that : ( how i'll do it and conditions )
1. I'll write the kernel name and version i am using for the test
2. I'll post the screenshots of the settings and/or a raw text of the settings for the specific kernel.
3. Trickstermod will be used for tweaking
4. Quadrant test for people who live for it
The conditions for the undervolt pass the test are the following
1. Running glowball for 30 minutes without crashing
2. Running Stability test 2.5 for 30 minutes. ( RUNNING EACH OF THE TESTS FOR 30 MINUTES C-A-D CLASSIC/CPU+GPU/SCALING TEST ) all in userspace mode.
Those settings will be the lower voltage achievable for me. You can use it as a reference but I cannot guarantee it will work for your device.. What I can suggest is using the boot delay option from the trickstermod menu. If we see that some settings are reliable for a lot of people, it would be nice to have help from some coders to write an init.d script with those settings. or just sharing other experiences. This is not a thread where I have the ultimate knowledge, but a thread who everybody can share their experiences, settings and so on to achieve the ultimate goal of performance and very low power consuption and battery life.
Those test will be time consuming but it is ok.
I do not expect any form of donation for that
If it helped you a little bit, you can just hit the help button and it will be my payday =)
Thank you very much
PS : For people giving 1 Star to the thread before I ever post the first undervolting settings, well, I do not know what to say. For the others who already tried the differents settings I,ll post day to day, feel free to post comments and rate the thread. You can even rate it 1 star if you want because you tried it. But for people who gave negatives reviews even if i didn't post any settings, please get a life.

Notes for this undervolting
CPU stable at 975 mv for 1300 Mhz. Tried 970 mv with -5 incremental for other frequencies but the device just crashed. reverted back +5mv for all frequencies and run a second test and it was 100% stable.
The stock CPU voltage settings is 1175mv for 1300 Mhz and so on by 5mv incremental. We are able to achieve performance and stability with a global undervoltage of 200 mv. Actually this is a lot. What happened with the battery life ? Almost 8 hours gain vs the stock settings. This is a lot considering there is no drop with performances.
Edit : Just made other extensive testing. Played deadzone, dead trigger and gta 3 without any glitches. They run smoothly without freezes. We could assume this config is quite stable.
Next step would be undervolting bus and memory while trying keeping those voltages for the cpu. Ill need help to achieve that because i am not a big coder.

He uses my voltage settings as his new kernel base I think. I must verify with him.
Sparksco use 1600 mhz with a ultra low voltage of 1100 mV.
Expect great battery life with his Rom and kernel

Undervolting should not impact the performance of the CPU.
What you can do is taking a look at the numbers and raise voltage a little. But it might be a lot of reasons why it is laggy. Possibly the governor ?
Other people tried the same settings without issues. But raisong the voltage a little wont drain the battery a lot as the number I gave are agressively low.
Cheers
Running on these settings and everything running smoothly. Thanks for the thread.

Running stock 4.2.1 with MKernel A19 & TRINITY... These voltages seem to be alright.
I am also using interactive and the deadline scheduler.
All is smooth so far... I'll report back if I run into any trouble.
UPDATE - Had to revert. Started getting freezes and crashes.
Trinity kernel's stock voltages seem to play nicely... Anything less is glitchy.

For underclocking aaggressively for now I only recommand Franco Kernel. All other kernels Causes stability problems with the same voltages.
Ill let you know soon with that developpement.

As soon as they realease the next version I'll test it.
For now the only thing it does is freezing the tablet.
The best undervolting I was able to achieve for now was with Franco Kernel because of the way the kernel is setting up. M-kernel and other boost Bus and memory speed that causes crashes with agressive undervolting.
Doing so, the performance gain is minimal and the battery life truly suffer at the end.
You can get except a few more FPS in certain games but not really noticeable.

100% of everything you said in that post is untrue. Please make sure the information you pull out of thin air is correct before stating them as fact.
Also voltage tolerance at a certain frequency is device dependent. Not kernel dependent. No amount of circumstantial evidence will change the laws of physics.
One more thing, your frequency table in the first post is wrong. The A9 G core DVFS table does not go below 480MHz. Franco's table is wrong and as a result so is yours.
This thread looks interesting. If you'd like you can test my kernel attached to THIS post as a flashable zip.

I did not attack your kernel whats so ever i dont know why you are taking it personal.
As far as i know franco`s table is accurate and the G core can go under 480 mhz. To make sure i what i advance is true i even pluged the N7 to a debug box. My friend who is an analyst programmer certified it also

Whatever the goal of this thread is I suppose. It's based on bricked kernel but I modified it a lot so it's not really much like it anymore. To some it up it overclocks to 1.6ghz and has quite a few governors. I'm testing smartassv2 right now but I have a feeling it's not good for battery. I haven't really tested many of the other governors but I've never had any of them lock up on me. Voltage control is also supported. No GPU overclocking though.

[Q] Best undervolt values for this tablet?

I have recently installed PimpMyROM for my tablet and have found this nice voltage setting feature.
Anyone have any good voltage values for longer lasting battery life without any cases of random reboots?
Best guaranteed to work is really not dialed into your specific tab and user habits.
Setcpu is an excellent app that can help you out with testing. It has a stress test future to make it easy to see if your Undervolt settings are stable.
Google Play claimed it isn't compatible for my tab so I grabbed it off Xda. It works fine. I gotta donate still... (and so should you if you get it here)
Btw: Setcpu has Undervolt settings built in too. You may want to freeze PMR while testing to be sure their settings are not conflicting.

But as for a starting place...
I have both my daughter's p6210 running smooth with these settings:
1200 MHz 1175 mV
1000 MHz 1050 mV
800 MHz 950 mV
500 MHz 925 mV
200 MHz 900 mV
The most intensive thing they do is play Survival Craft (for hours). Tabs were getting excessively hot before I Undervolted them. No crashes in days...
They're both on CM10.1

1000MHz 1175mV
800MHz 1150mV
500MHz 1050mV
200MHz 975mV
Its not much battery saver but rom is stable

Undervolting, what are your settings?

My battery is getting old and along with that its life length. So I decided to undervolt and found it stressful but fun (lol weird huh?).
I'm currently stress testing it using SetCPU's stress test, so far it has not crashed.
My undervolt settings:
100 MHz - 950
200 MHz - 950
300 MHz - 975 *
400 MHz - 1000
500 MHz - 1025 *
600 MHz - 1050 *
700 MHz - 1075 *
800 MHz - 1100
900 MHz - 1125 *
1000 MHz - 1150
1100 MHz - 1175 *
1200 MHz - 1200
* - I'm just assuming SetCPU sets this automatically since it skips some clock speeds.
However I set the voltages increment by 25, so far the stress test has not shown any crashes.
What are your settings?
I run about -75 I think across the board using AndroidTuner, no stress test, but seems stable.

[Q] Best undervolting settings for custom kernel

If you use a custom kernel like Aero Kernel, what is your best undervolting settings?
I have been using this for a week and my phone is very stable
300 mhz - 990 mV
384 mhz - 990 mV
600 mhz - 1000 mV
787 mhz - 1000 mV
998 mhz - 1025 mV
1094 mhz - 1025 mV
1190 mhz - 1050 mV
Any suggestions to undervolt it even better?
