I have known that some phones have kernels surporting increase CPU voltage(such as htc G7,ME525).In this way,we can make the CPU running at a faster speed smoothly and stably.The default CPU frequency of P500 is 600MHz and the frequency is too low for performing some heavy works.So,i want to improve the voltage of CPU to make the heavy woks more easily.Is there anyone can help me?
Can we make a kernel satisfying the requirement
Can we make a kernel satisfying the requirement or there is another way to resolve this problem.

saw many overclocked doom kernels medium level and extreme level overclocking.
is it harmful to the phone? does it overheates the board and damages??
for a 1ghz X10 phone overclocking to 1.2ghz, is there much increase in performance and removes lags..???
Most kernel developers won't allow the kernel to be set to run at a speed harmul to your phone. So no, overclocking is not considered harmful. Overclocking can greatly reduce lag, but you will be sacrificing battery life.
yeah dont worry mates.
be happy to OC your phone. kernel developer know what they are doing.
but dont go OC your phone to hisghest OC 1st level becouse it will crash your phone. try increase it slowly.:laugh:
Hello guys if you have note 3 (sm-n900) with Kernel -halaszk-UNIVERSAL5420- and want to undervolt your CPU I have found a stable voltage for undervolting, Use SetCpu, first of all set your CPU when you are playing huge games to avoid overheating to min.200 max1300Ghz.
200Mhz-700mv
250-750
300-775
350-825
400-850
450-875
500-925
550-975
600-1025
650-1075
800-750
900-800
1000-825
1100-850
1200-875
1300-950 or 975
If your device overheats after undervolting I recommend to use DVFS disabler.
Do keep in mind, that there are not 2 exactly same devices. There is no stable voltage, which works for all phones with that model number.
Need help
I am using N-900 running Lollipop stock rom 5.0
I wanna do undervolting the cpu for long lasting battery life without flashing new mod rom.
Please give me some advice or recommended kernel for stock rom supporting an undervolt method.
Thank you in advance.
are there tests for battery life gained vs performance lost? would be interesting

1) What is DVFS?
2) Underclock to 200mhz is NOT POSSIBLE!
3) There no undervolting, because my phone stock volt for 300Mhz is 775Mhz, which i use for 300Mhz is 700Mhz and no reboot, nothing. Just bit longer battery life.
4) Setting for 300Mhz-1300Mhz for gaming isn't recommend i. Just enabler Samsung Stock Power Saving. It's limited CPU to 1700Mhz with MCPS (Multi-core Power Saving) with Bettery thermal options and GPU framerates limits to 30FPS for slightly save power and slightly reduce overheating.
Thanks
I am having trouble regarding these: undervolt
maximum cpu frequency
maximum gpu frequency
cpu thermal throttling
So i downloaded kernel :Sultan-kernel-Pure-v1.7.0-Pyramid-Aroma.zip
6.5MB, which I think is the latest one. But i am not familiar with those because it is my frist time to flash my own rom and kernel. I've done everything right but can you help me set up the kernel? which is best? because there are numbers in it and i dont know what to choose. Also what is best setting for saving battery life? overclock, underclock, undervolt, cpu freq, gpu freq, thermal throttling., what are those
I also apologize for posting like 3 threads for this because im a newbie. I hope you consider. HELP me please.

for good battery life put these settings:
cpu freq: whatever freq you want but maximum at 1.5ghz
gpu freq:266mhz
undervolt:whatever value you want but maximum -50mv

Tnx. I did what you said. Hopefully it'll help with battery life.
Is it possible to implement gpu undervolting into a kernel for the Xperia Z5 I'm looking at you @AndroPlus XD , cpu undervolting is very much possible, it helps reduce heat and increase the lifespan of the chip, so if we can do this on the cpu why not the gpu?
For the Z5 undervolting the gpu isn't necessary.. And I dont recommend doing it either..
The reason being (from my experience and attempts at changing gpu governors and clock speeds)..
I have come across the following scenarios/issues.
1.. Changing the GPU governor from the default governor with 3CToolBox Pro to a different governor force reboots the device instantly and reverts back to default governor settings..
2. Min gpu clock speed is 180Mhz and may is 680Mhz. While playing graphically intense games the gpu barely increased in speed.. It was literally idling at 180Mhz and barely flinched up any higher. Changing the Min speed made no difference in performance.. But from what I remember device still gets hot but not hot enough to cause any concern..
If you're going to undervolt the gpu my advice would be to decrease the maximum gpu speed to like 450 or 510 because as I mentioned above, the gpu speed almost never even increases past minimum that I have noticed when monitoring.. So setting the gpu may speed down 1 or 2 levels would be better and atleast a tad safer incase of sudden voltage / overvoltage spikes..
That's just my 2 cents and friendly advice mate. But I would like to know how you go with this and would love to hear the outcome once you have gone through with the tweak. Let me know how it turns out.
Good luck bro.

1. thats because some of the options arent even gpu govenors,
2. im pretty sure xperias newer than 2014 will have something called AVS which stands for auto voltage scaling, im not sure if this is the case with z5 but im no dev so i cant confirm my self.
and the snapdragon 810 is known for a being a cpu that gets hot, i believe the z5 has a newer version with the problem somewhat fixed but that doesnt account for sonys somewhat "meh" method of cooling but atleast its way better than before.
Just leave it on default tbh. Unless you're adamant on undervolting lol

Hey guys I am using kernel auditor
Want to know
1)the profile to get the max performance regardless of battery
2)profile for normal multitasking but with higher battery saving capacity than stock arrangement
3)which is better 4 Cores and then restricting to 1.5ghz (or any other frequency which u would seem for the power saving) or switching off permanently and then setting the frequencies at about 2 GHz
