We can't tell you not all phones are the same, uv a little (10 or 25) run it for a day or two see how it acts, if its steady, uv a little more, when it starts acting up thats your limit go back to previous settings.

I've seen some general advice not to UV for anything over 1ghz speeds as well, but it may not hurt to try if you want and adjust as needed for stability.
I'm running on a -75mv at 1.5Ghz faux kernel 0.4.7..
Perfectly stable, benchmarked AnTuTu, Quadrant, and all those other good stuff.
I have not tried -100mv yet, I doubt it will be stable.
Every phone is different, but I run mine at -20 up to 1 G, and -10 for the rest.
Mine I cant undervolt shoot I have to keep my minimum frequency at 500 to be stable, course I can also run at 1.5 all day (I keep it at 1.2).
Well I guess I can't say I cant UV since I use pimp my cpu and it only gives you options in 25 increments, maybe I would be stable at like -10. But coming from my galaxy s 4g where I could UV over -150 and still be stable, that just doesnt even sound worth doing.
Edit: I just thought about it and maybe the reason I cant UV (more) is because I'm using fauxs pre UV/OC kernel, so I dont even know what stock voltage is. But comparing to my sgs4g at stock voltage I am running considerably lower voltages on the g2x.
The faux thread says it's pre uv at -50 across the board.

hello, I just wanted to make this thread for everyone to share their lowest AND stable voltage values for each frequency. Here goes mine:
(anything above 1000mhz was not tested)
1000mhz <-- 950mV
800mhz <-- 825mV
500mhz <-- 550mV
300mhz <-- 500mV
The following was done with eb1.0.4 + trinity kernel.
please share yours.

I have no idea what schedulers are
Also, a question to everyone, what are some of your unstable symptoms from UV? Since I've never had any rebooting issues with my g2x, I am not sure if some of the symptoms I was experiencing is from UV'ing or from the kernel. If you gone under the UV limit, does your phone just freeze or would it autoreboot?

UV will more than likely freeze or you will reboot... UV typically just makes everything really unstable, you might get stuck in a bootloop and have to reflash

oh and a precaution to those using eb1.0.4 + trinity kernel. I set my max voltage for 1000mhz (my max. frequency as well) too low, and the phone autoreboot on startup twice and then did a factory reset itself This happened twice so be aware

What ROM and Kernel are you using? Also, which EB can be used with the Trinity kernel? GB or FroYo?
Anyone find that their battery has actually gone down while UV'ing? I'm finding after a full charge, the first 30% has been quicker by almost an hour. Not a really scientific method of testing, but I do just about the same thing every morning (email, txt, etc.) left over from the night before. That first 30% has a lot of screen off time, which will lower the speed to 300Mhz using PMCpu.
I'm going to up the voltage to at least 700 for 300Mhz and see how that fairs.

This post has been edited because I added Mandrobench results because it utilization of both cores. Mandrobench scores were identical for both kernels. Running Mandrobench at 1500 more than once tended to overheat my phone and cause reboots and other signs of instability.
One thing is clear, if you run either Faux or Trinity kernel you must OC at least to 1100 or you take a huge hit on performance.
I ran 4 different benchmarks on every configuration of CM 10 times with the Faux and Trinity kernels. I normalized the results so that each benchmark was evenly weighted and so the numbers are better understood they were normalized so that CM with its own kernel scores 100. All other numbers are relative to that. The 4 benchmarks were Quadrant, Smartbench 2011, Linpack, and Mandrobench. The results are a bit surprising, I am attaching the spreadsheet so that anyone can check my methodology.
CM w/CM kernel 1000 MHz score 100
CM w/Faux kernel 1000 MHz score 77
CM w/Faux kernel 1100 MHz score 104
CM w/Faux kernel 1200 MHz score 114
CM w/Faux kernel 1300 MHz score 123
CM w/Faux kernel 1500 MHz score 138
CM w/Trinity kernel 1000 MHz score 85
CM w/Trinity kernel 1100 MHz score 116
CM w/Trinity kernel 1200 MHz score 124
CM w/Trinity kernel 1400 MHz score 140
CM w/Trinity kernel 1500 MHz score 147
Test for each configuration were started following a reboot with a battery charged over 60%. They were run sequentially the same way for each configuration. Each number above was the result of the averaging a total of 30 benchmarks.
Interesting note, the first couple Quadrant scores on each run were generally lower than the rest, result of caching by the phone perhaps? On certain configurations the Smartbench results fluctuated wildly producing unexpectedly low scores. Not sure what the reason for this fluctuation but it is repeatable, at least on my phone, but only on certain configurations.
This took a long time, I am sharing it because I found the results unexpected and that they might be useful to somebody. Not everyone is dumb enough to sit and run benchmarks all day. Would be interesting to know how close the numbers are ran on another phone. I am intentionally only providing the numbers and my methodology, I will leave it to someone smarter to explain them.
Add Mandrobench to the list... only app that utilizes TWO cores for its benchmarking (free too). Then we'll talk.

I agree, Mandrobench should have been included, I didn't originally because it has disappeared from the market. I have searched my back-ups and found the apk, so I will incorporated them into the experiment later today. It is my understanding that most current apps do not take advantage of the dual core, therefore the results from benchmarks that are not optimized for dual-core have significance.

Both kernels were ext4, made much easier to switch back and forth by the new version of clockwork.
Both of these are file systems and ext4 is newer and theoretically faster, probably more so on a computer where there are more read/writes to disc. I don't think any of these benchmarks test for this. Someone else may correct this as I don't know a lot about phones, I am a computer guy, and an out of date one at that.

Running consecutive benchmarks can kill a battery in 2 hours.
Battery life is a subjective, I haven't thought of a way to objectively test it. I feel I get the best battery life with CM with its own kernel or Eaglesblood Froyo. Bionix appears to eat batteries.
After seeing these results, I plan to run the Trinity UV11 kernel for awhile and see to see how good the battery life is. The performance increase appears significant for only OC to 1100 and I like the idea of getting the advantages of a little OC/UV without having to run Pimp my CPU.
I have gotten a clear increase (hours more idle time) by simply turning off 4G and only toggling it on when I need it. I use Pandora a lot and it ironically runs better at 2G when I am bicycling (less drops interruptions in the streaming as I move around).

Faux's newest kernel is ~1.5 correct?
He's probably using the Trinity battery saving kernel clocked at 1.1 and undervolted.
I use the Trinity 1.1GHz kernel and undervolt to -200mV (for the lower ones, leave the top three at stock for stability reasons) and I score around 6100 in Antutu.

That makes sense. I just did a benchmark @1.1ghz and I got 6007. Ya the Faux kernel max is @1.5ghz. Its undervolted too, not much, just enough to get great battery life.

I now use Trinity Kernel because Faux did not have 216Mhz option in SetCPU. I also UVed by -25 for now and set charging profile to 400+ Mhz to avoid SoD
I wonder whats the difference in battery life if you use 1100Mhz or 1500Mhz ?

It's a significant difference. I don't have any data to back it up. But I've accidentally left it on the max after a benchmark and it would be in a free fall. Especially when playing a 3D game like MC3

I've tried using both Kernels as well as stock. Granted they both seem to run better then stock, I'm currently on Trinity with Standard Voltage, because the Under voltage versions of both Faux and trinity seemed to freeze on reboots for whatever reason. They both appear to run about the same set at 1100 which is what I've set to.
I'd like to say thank you for performing scientific and useful benchmarks!

My chip could only use faux's OC 1.2ghz, using the kernel OC 1.5 would cause my phone to boot loop. I could go stable @ faux OC 1.2 with minimum UV, getting qudrant score of atleast 3000 - 3500. Another kernel that i tried is MOrfic's, I can go stable up to 1.4 Ghz/minimum UV- quadrant of atleast 4000-4300. I believe i have what they say as the "weak chip" though running OC @ 1.4 ghz doesn't make it look weak. Thanks to the great DevS!
Can you experienced doods, help out a noob? I have recently rooted my phone (after MUCH research and reading) and just installed Set CPU app. I have been reading about the different settings for Set CPU, and it appears to be device specific, so I wanted to know if any can suggest some stable and useful settings and profiles I can use.
My goal would be to extend battery life and increase erformance while the phone is being used. I kinda guess this is most peoples reason for using this app. Slow the CPU down while the screen is off, and increase it a bit when the screen is on. I am not totally sure why you adjust it while it is charging. And wold this fi into the screen is off profile.
Ok enough rambling, and thanks for any assistance!
Forget SETCPU. Voltage Control is the way to go. For battery life, I would underclock to 100-800mhz and have -100mv all through the range. For performance, 100-1400 mhz (1.5 & 1.6 ghz are heavily overvolted) and have -100mv from 100-1000 mhz and -75 for 1100-1400. Leave the governers and io schedulers where they are.

Tried those settings and my phone froze a few times so I upped the voltage to get it to work for me. This is my first time overclocking a phone. Do any of these settings look strange using voltage control?

Yeah those are kinda high 'performance' settings, not all phones like being overclocked or undervolted much less both lol.. Start with it just overclocked for a day or two and see how it runs, however there's gonna be some serious battery drain obviously. Then move on to undervolting slowly like maybe -25 across the board and leave 1400 alone for another day or two... just experiment like this until you have the right balance of speed, stability and battery life. As a matter of fact I toned mine down a bit afterwards and it worked nice:
Overclocked to 1.2ghz (1200mhz),
took out 600mhz frequency and set 100 to -75, then 200-800 at -50, 1000 and 1200 at -25
or if you want battery life and don't mind sacrificing a little performance you can underclock to 800mhz and set all to maybe -75... its a lot of testing to find what works for your phone, if it reboots freezes or lags too much its either overclocked too much or undervolted too much
edit: I also use the free voltage control app from the market, it lets you set min. and max. clock speeds as well as voltage so thats all I need lol

Gotcha! Thanks to that.
Now I have a crazy question below. (trust me there are even more questions all over my mind now)
When they say "ROM", I'm assuming that its collective of Kernel, all the apps and the radio.... Can't we just downgrade the kernel of "GummyCharge GBE" Rom?

Roms are not always all inclusive with a kernel and whatnot.. Most are custom apps, themes, and build/framework remakes to operate on top of the stock roms and will use stock radio and kernel to operate unless a custom radio/kernel is flashed. While most radios and apps will work well with different roms, kernels (being basically the 'engine' for the android OS i believe) are dependant on baseband and will not work by switching them around or flashing one over the other. This is the way I understand it to be anyway, I just know kernels are not compatible between 2.2 and 2.3

Makes sense. I'm sure the apps and radio are dependent on the kernel as it is the core. (like an Operating system that provides the platform for applications to work.)
I'm sure the developers thoroughly test these combinations before releasing any ROM, .
However I want to have some fun updating the kernel on the GC GBE 1.9 that I currently have on my charge with couple other kernels out there....
Will see if I create some magic

don't use froyo kernels with GB (as of right now there's only one custom GB kernel, navenedrobs nameless ext4 one), it will just lead to a soft bricked phone... i could be wrong but i think imnuts and imoseyon from team gummy are working on some GB kernel awesomeness

What about the noop, fifo, bfq, vr options? What do these mean?

Don't touch them. They will either make your phone crawl or have FCs. It hasn't been implemented in the kernel yet.

Oh crap, I am not sure what one it was on when I installed it. I think I changed it by accident. right now it is on the vr setting.
Are there any setting s to avoid when messing with the voltage control, and if I delete the app does go back to the default settings?

To avoid: IO schedulers, overvolting (only done in Extreme), and going above 1400 mhz, as 1500 & 1600 are HEAVILY overvolted. Toasted processors=bad magic.
However, you can switch the governers from conservative to performance, but its kind of useless.
If you delete the app it will NOT go back to default...I think. The default io scheduler for imoseyon's kernel is deadline, I forgot what PBJ's is. If you switched it and its still working, don't worry about it.

Does anyone know the ideal settings for undervolting the sensation without causing any problems?

Not really. As faux say not all chips are created equal. I've seen up to an amazing -150 but my phone can only handle -50 stable and -75 sometimes with a reboot or two.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4g using xda premium
Mine handles -100 just fine, but yeah,others can only go -50. Just use system tuner and hit the -12.5 till your phone freezes, then when it restarts go one less and see if it's stable. That's what I did.

I'd also suggest keeping the Max Clock at a consistent value while you play. E.g. UV -100mV might work well at one Mhz then fail at a higher value.
Mine seemed to work consistently at about -100mV, then again I tend to UC unless I'm running CF-Bench or something
Should I only need to concentrate on the lowest and highest clock speeds it's been set to use? Or will I have to undervolt all other frequencies between the two? Not sure if it increments on usage, or simply toggles between the min and max.
If it does increment, how can I test it's stability on the other frequencies if I can't tell what frequency it was using at the time?
Just tapped the -12.5 button a few times, and it reduced all of the sliders. It's -100 now with no apparent issues as of yet.
May I ask the reason for undervolting?

Mainly to save battery. Altho I have found that it is quite negligible. It may also help with phone heat

I run faux latest version 2.7 beta and I see his scripts to undervolt and the lowest I see it too go is -75 how are you able to go lower to -100.... ???
I think it varies from phone to phone, mine too seems happy enough -100.

Soooooo how do I undervolt below -75 that's where I am. Now

If the phone hangs/boots below that level then with the Phone/Kernel/... that's the limit.
I created a GScript script (well a sh script) to U/V after a reboot. I didn't want it to do it automatically as you'd end up in a boot loop. Just hassle to fix. The reason for the GScript was to remove it from the various CPU controllers I'd tried, I ended up just using the CM7 one to control the CPU.
Faux has the command to do it globally (across all frequencies) or individual frequencies. TBH I never bothered with individual ones.
The bottom line is, do what you and your phone are happy with.
EDIT: meant to add you can check the actual value manually. I know the Faux one (same post as the scripts above) but if you are using a different kernel it might be in a different place.
