Hi, first of all I would just say that I've searched around and tried different things such as putting a piece of paper between the battery and the wall.
The problem is coming after I have used the phone for about two or three minutes, then it just turns off and reboots. After the reboot it just stays on the splash screen and I have to take out the battery and wait a couple minutes to let the phone cool off. It doesn't get very hot, but I can feel it working. I have tried four ROMS but the problem persists. I started getting the reboots after I S-Off'd the phone and upgraded the firmware and installed ICS. Before that the phone could run for hours and it could also become hot (45 degrees celsius) without any problem. I am currently running:
CM 10 (10-20120818-bruce2728-pyramid)
Build number: cm_pyramid-userdebug 4.1.1 JRO0L eng. bruce.20120818.021714 test-keys
Baseband: 11.69.3504.00P_11.22.3504.07_M
Kernel: 3.0.41 [email protected] #1
I'm not using any over/underclock either.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
UPDATE: I think it is because I undevolted the battery. The only problem is that I can't seem to find the volt option in System Tuner Pro anymore and I don't know which values I should set it to.

Use the reset button there in the voltage section... It will give you back the default voltage

Will that work even though I don't have any backup saved and wiped multiple times or will it just set the settings to what they are today?
Bump, really need help with this issue due to the fact that I need my phone for everyday use. I'm not coming that far into System Tuner Pro before the phone shuts down. Really annoying.

I don't think you can restore 'default' voltage settings in System Tuner unless you have saved a previous configuration as default. I would say your best bet to at least try and get some system stability back is to hit the +12.5 mV button which will add that value to every frequency. Try it once, if no success try a second time but you'll need some care or you might cause some other issues. You only need to get as far as the Voltage tab from the System Tuner main page, hopefully you can do that before the phone shuts down.
To give you some idea where your voltages are sitting, my stock settings started at 800mV @ 192 MHz through to 1325mV @ 1.83 GHz. I have the whole lot undervolted by 12.5mV.
Undervolting doesn't mean reducing the voltage across your battery.
It's just reducing the potential difference across your processor.
Now, to remove the undervolage that you've already done, disable the set on boot option in system tuner.
Flash your ROM without wiping & that's all you need to do.
If the problem still persists, try this fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622683
Thanks guys! I can't see any voltage option in System Tuner Pro though. Does this mean that my kernel does not support it? Still running what is stated in the OP. Really appreciate it.
So, now I have AHRD with 3.33 fw. I also have a custom kernel. How does my settings look? Is it supposed to be 12.5v between every stage? I think I only changed the top 4 or so, so I don't have a clue what they should be set to.

Looks like you're actually overvolted there, even before you hit +12.5mV a couple of times. My default settings were 800mV @ 192 MHz then 12.5mV increase between frequencies as you said, up to 1325mV @ 1.83 GHz.
Which kernel do you have now? For the sake of the argument I'd suggest dropping your voltages back down to normal and see what happens first.
hm
You can try Increasing the Min Feq to the second lowest. dont remember the value. You can also try another kernel, Iv been using brices cm10 for quite while an i hat reboot issues with the tamcore kernel but not with the ones which cme with the rom. The rom is pretty stable now

I've tried about 4 ROMS, sense and non sense, with stock kernels and without, and it still happens. Really annoying, but thanks for the reply.
It seems that the phone shuts down when it gets hot, not too hot just +-22 degrees celsius. I can let it run for hours when idle, but if i start to surf the web (or any other task) it shuts down after two minutes.
I can't see why your phone would shut down at such a low temperature, there has to be something else going on, I think under/over-volting can be ruled out for the moment. Can I recommend having a read of this thread, I'm thinking a logcat or last_kmsg might be useful in trying to find the problem.
Unfortunately I'm not equipped to decipher logcats etc. so you'll need to pass them on to a dev or someone with a bit of debugging knowledge. For last_kmsg wait until the phone dies, then boot it back up and grab the last_kmsg through adb as per the thread I linked you to.
I can't remember off the top of my head but there are some people on here offering live help on IRC, that might be your best bet. Either that or the dev of the ROM you're using might be able to help.
Thanks, will definately check this out.

So I have seen a few roms released in the last week, but I keep thinking to myself "When will there be a rom that's targeted to optimize battery?" If one of the awesome devs could come up with something that does just this that would be amazing.
TIA.

HOW?!?! I get a max of 12 to 13 on heavy usage.
If anyone does do this, I find that I get great battery life now after trying the CDMA/GSM fix (cant find the link).
Might wanna be something to look into for future ROMs. (From what I remember, the glitch shows the phone as looking for GSM networks while it's connected to a CDMA network. I followed the instructions to correct this and it's had a positive impact on my battery life. Getting near double the life now).
You guys are on 3G aren't you? I don't even get 2 hours on 4G with medium heavy usage.

Waiting to see if it makes a difference, though.
8-14 on moderate use to heavy is all you are going to be getting. I doubt you'll see a rom aimed only at battery life. Find a rom with sense removed (there are a few of them) or asop and further remove junk you don't use especially the social network **** and enjoy.

You really don't even need an app from the market like the guy suggests in that thread. If you just dial *#*#INFO#*#*, then go to Phone Information, then scroll down to 'Set preferred network type' and select CDMA auto (prl) from the list.

what software is that use to show the CPU and Battery usage.

Actually that CDMA/GSM fix, can it be applied through a rom? I'm pretty sure that's a built in phone setting where you have to dial through the keypad. Regardless, think of it this way. Processors and memory run off of voltage. The more it's in use the more power it will take. Now undervolting and underclocking the CPU is an obvious fix but also the memkiller settings. The more memory that is in use the more power is being taken up. This is why AOSP has better battery life than Sense under the same circumstances. With a more aggressive memkiller you can further increase battery life. I am going to build aggressive settings in my next release of my rom but for custom settings you can always get Autokill from the Market, assuming your phone is rooted of course.
I'm getting FANTASTIC battery life on the latest Fresh ROM.

Has setcpu been updated with native evo support, or are people still rocking N1 settings?
You get OC Widget by searching "overclock widget" in the Market. However, I don't see the need for it since the EVO automatically scales the CPU clock, and we can't overclock.

I guess i should have tried spelling out overclock instead of OC (DUH).. lol, and i have heard that, and have no doubt that it is true, but some people are claiming it has given them some improvement in battery life... Maybe its just a placebo effect, but i am gonna run a few tests and see what i can come up with....
I read a post on another forum from a guy that sounded like he REALLY knew what he was talking about and said the same thing you did but with some pretty big words and tech talk to back it up. But hey.. its free, and i like trying new stuff... even if its so i can see it for myself that it doesnt do anything.
Am I the only one that realizes overclock widget and setcpu don't work on our phones? I have tried both on 3 different ROMs and checked through a adb shell the cpu usage while the phone was asleep and neither one works no matter what I set the programs to.
Awesome, I've officially made it >24 hours on a single charge! (Though I did plug it into my laptop for 3 minutes to transfer some stuff)
Started the monitor with a little less than 90%, and now I'm at 8%

I shot an email to the dev of an Overclock app called Tegrak Overclock that supports pretty much now every variant of the Galaxy S (II) . I Asked if they'd support our device because of how similar it is to the Galaxy S line. Just a few hours later they replied, letting me know that we had the correct (Hummingbird) Processor and asked a few more questions about our device. By the next morning they sent me an test app and it works perfectly... Allowing us to Overclock to a Stable 1.2GHz!
How it works:
Download the New Updated app from the Market - Tegrak Overclock
When it opens, select Load overclock module. Then it will request root permission, allow it.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then select CPU max frequency to overclock up to 1.3Ghz. In my experience, it seems that the highest stable steps were 1.2Ghz and 1.152Ghz, both stable enough for daily use. Its possible that others devices may be able to handle those frequencies better than mine, but always be careful cause overclocking can be dangerous.
Theres alot more features within the app, if you know what your doing you can change a few more settings to your liking. Theres a paid version of the app that grants even more abilities, one that made me not mind buying it was having overclock persist after reboot.
If your going to try out higher frequencies make sure you dont set those settings on reboot unless you know they are stable for you.
Heres my Ultimate Setup, No Lag or Home screen freezing/loading.
-TouchMIUIwiz ROM 2.0
-Bali Kernel + Ext4 Lagfix
-LauncherPro Plus
-Overclocked @ 1.152GHz - Reaching over 2060 on quadrant
And my battery easily last a whole day, see how your setup works with your overclock.
Have fun overclocking your sidekicks, and many Thanks to the Devs behind Tegrak Overclock !
I tried I this morning and set I to 1.152ghz and did a qurand test and got 1523 on stock KG2.

yes, thanks teddy for making this happen for us. so far I am running max. 1.152 Ghz, with a little UV as well..... I am interested to hear how people are doing with UV, people who bought the ultimate version.
so far I have 800 and 400 Mhz undervolted by 25 mV, and 200 and 100 Mhz undervolted by 50 mV. gonna run this and see how stabilty, speed and battery life are...

Just for clarity--are you getting a boot loop or just a reset when you overclock?
Also, the few devices I've come across fail under an OpenGL stress test--when overclocked. Stock devices are stable.

Does it not support?..
Hey I have a SK4G also, here is my info:
Model number: SGH-T839
Firmware version: 2.3.5
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-Platypus_Egg_v1
Build number: GenericGinger 2.0
When i try to load overclock module it states; "Your device or kernel is not available. Do you want to see available models?"
Do you think the developer can fix this?
i question which is better: overclocking or fixing how your phone manages memory. i have had two android devices and tried overclocking on both. while the phone may have been a tad more responsive, moving through windows a bit faster and a few other minor improvements, i didnt notice any real performance increase. however, i recently discovered the v6 supercharger script, and have noticed a huge difference. web pages are loading at least twice as fast and im not on 4g, my home screen doesnt redraw, multitouch has improved greatly, the screen doesnt freeze or lag as much, and my quadrant scores have improved. prior to supercharging, my quadrant score was in the 900's. after supercharging, its in the 1100's. its no 1500, but its a lot better than stock.
How do you tell if which type of cpu your phone has? I've looked and can't seem to find out how to check my phone to see which I have. My cpu always seems to run hot no matter what type of kernel I try, and I'm wondering if the cpu may be slow and not capable of tweaking.
Any help someone can give me would be great.
To find out which processor you have, use Terminal Emulator from the Play Store. Reboot then type this command:
su
dmesg | grep ACPU
Here's an explanation of what this means and also recommended voltage settings for each processor type courtesy of a very knowledgeable, helpful, and great kernel dev: Imoseyon. Any "thanks" goes to him and not me for providing all this info.
Post #1341, just read Imoseyon's response to me:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/31329-ke...11012/page__st__1340__p__1034933#entry1034933
Imoseyon post #1418 for recommended voltage settings per cpu type:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/31329-ke...-kernel-v16-11012/page__st__1410#entry1042976
This is the output I get from that command. How am I supposed to interpret this as fas, nominal, or slow?

Not that I know of, you can run pretty much any kernel stock as well as adjust governors and io scheduler. The primary difference is in how much you can UC/OC or even UV/OV and how well your CPU can hold those tweaks without fear of bootlooping or instability. But as far as just flashing kernels and leaving them there, you're fine. Like I said, I'm basing this all off of what Imoseyon has said so he is WAY more knowledgeable in this area if you need additional input. This slow, nominal, fast cpu exists based on the manufacturer process so its not something you can adjust. It's permanently set with the cpu.

The basis for the difference in CPUs is the same as car Manufacturing. Part's are divided by spec tolerances. The closer to spec is the difference. In car terms GM separates parts according to how close they are to spec. Fast would go in Cadillac, Nominal Buick and slow Chevrolet. They all use the same part just have closer spec tolerance. :laugh:

Have to do immediately after a reboot and some custom boot animations will keep it from working.

No custom animation. I got rid of my lock screen to get to my homescreen faster and added a shortcut to the terminal app. I started typing as soon as the app would let me and got the same error.
Your busybox install must be borked. Download busybox free from the playstore and do a "smart install"

The basis for the difference in CPUs is the same as car Manufacturing. Part's are divided by spec tolerances. The closer to spec is the difference. In car terms GM separates parts according to how close they are to spec. Fast would go in Cadillac, Nominal Buick and slow Chevrolet. They all use the same part just have closer spec tolerance. :laugh:

As a general rule, CPUs that come off the same fab are tested and then placed into different "bins", based on how they perform at different speeds and voltages. The better performing "top bin", chips get rated and sold at the highest clock speed. The slower chips get a lower clock speed assigned, and are sold at a lower price.
This method works well for AMD and Intel, who both sell a wide range of clock speeds for a particular generation CPU at different price points. It eliminates waste by enabling them to sell the lower performing chips instead of rejecting or destroying them, and allows them to offer different price points which is beneficial from a marketing perspective.
With phones, the CPUs are often clocked the same (e.g. [email protected] 1.5 GHz), but the CPUs still range in capability depending on their mfg tolerances, and in the case of our Snapdragon S2s, they are tagged accordingly. Whether you end up with a slow or fast chip in your phone is totally random, but frequently your chances of getting a faster chip increase over time as the fab process is fine tuned, and chip yields go up.
That doesn't mean you can't get a fast CPU right off the bat. For example, I pre-ordered mine on day 1 (June 6th?) and still got a fast CPU.

That worked, thanks!
Now I know I'm nominal. The first line says "ACPU PVS: [1],FMAX[0]". It's different from the other 2 posted results in this thread (all 3 are actually different). What do those numbers mean?
I was lucky enough to have a fast CPU; which values on those charts do I want? I opened Kernel Turner and went to "Voltage" and it is a bunch of weird numbers--and I see something for "-1.5 across board," how many times should I hit that? I'm assuming that's how you undervolt.

Hi,
First post in this forum in a long time. Or maybe ever.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, I'm new to this ROM, and had a stable one in my Thunderbolt, so was away from flashing for almost a year. Just got a vz S3, rooted it as soon as I got home, and after doing some research, decided on Liquid Smooth. Downloaded Liquid-JB-v2.1-Beta3.1-d2vzw this morning, so whatever the latest version as of this morning (Jan 23) is what I flashed. Also got the correct gapps. All went well, and so far, I like what I've seen. (Thanks, developers, this has been the EASIEST flash to a new rom I've ever done.
One problem, and I hope someone can point me in the right direction, as I'm googled out on trying to find a solution.
When I go to settings, performance, current, or, maximum CPU frequency, the highest it goes it 1512. The youtube videos on this show choices up to 1900.
Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?
Thank you.

Just installed Setcpu, and it would not allow (nor show) any setting higher than 1512.
Thanks again for any insight.

You need to run a custom kernel that is overclockable. The stock kernel on liquid isnt overclockable from what I remember.

Ya, its hardware level so it doesnt make a difference what rom you are running.
My cpu is behaving wierd lately.....in normal operation , its almost always above 50 degrees ...and when heavy use comes, temps rise rapidly to over 60 degrees , when kernel starts to throttle and phone's frequency start to drop and then it lags like crazy ....when at idle its in range 40-45 degrees.....when in deep sleep, its in range 38-40.....i ve tried all major kernels ....i ve a very high UnderVolt....i even tried stock table .....i use phone at 1 Ghz ....tried both stock and kitkat .....The phone is painfully hot in hands ....i cant seem to fix this ?? Does it mean , my phonr has to go to service centre ???

You say, that you use it at 1GHz but this screen says that phone runned at 1.3 GHz. Yesterday I was playing Bad Piggies at 1GHz on stock and phone got very hot. (I have got plastic cover and thru it burned)
On sony support center is topic about temp http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-L/high-Battery-temperatures/td-p/363016 you can try to switch off network connection. Theres written that your idle and deepsleep temps are "in normal". And when you stress your cores that might get hotter than it's nice.

I don't know what max temp is ideal.. is it bad even on stock kernel and ROM with locked bootloader? Coz on my phone none of custom software doesn't work propertly. That's why stock is the best for me. You can try stock and you'll see if things get better
I have flashed phantom kernel v7 and Stock ROM.
When my phone is ideal temp is 38 c .
Regarding your screen shot I guess you should turn-off MP-decision using trickster mod and lock freq at 1 GHz.
If you have locked freq and MP-decision is on it may override default settings.
I guess this should work.

you need to be S-OFF since this is an anykernel package..if you are S-OFF then eveything will be automated..use Synapse from Playstore to customize settings..
Any feedbacks/rants/violent reactions?? should we keep doing things here?? making me bleed without even the phone with me?? people here seem to be more uncooperative than the people on Xperia..they are craving for an official release already i'm just shy to do so..

I think i'm just happy that anyone cares to develop for this device so i'll take what i can get!
Since flashing 4.4.3 Rom with this kernel, i've noticed some lag on my lockscreen, exiting chrome with home button (home screen re-draws a lot), and pulling up my keyboard, especially in hangouts. I'm trying a different kernel (bilal_liberty) to see if that makes any difference. I think it's about the same...maybe a little bit smoother. I'm going to use that kernel for another day or so, then re-flash yours to make a better comparison.
Thanks for your work for our device.

its because HTC Implemented some DMA mappings..on high density devices(2gb RAM and above) we don't have these issues..this is just a port of what HTC did on M7 so we expect things like this come implemented too..so with the lack of huge RAM, indeed you will suffer issues..as a workaround i built a new one and sent it to Whooper and she gave a positive feedback with the laggs/redraws gone..on next release hopefully everything should be OK..i am just waiting for her to report the battery life for the test if the changes i made affected battery life or is it just stale..
Thanks for the nosy feedback i really appreciate it..any one else with issues so we can start balls rolling for an update?

Thanks for the useful information. I'm looking forward to trying out the new kernel.
Hi,
I've been using this kernel since the day it was released. And I'm very happy about it! The features I like the most are UV (i undervolted 50 mV and disabled krait voltage boosting in synapse) and the way dt2w and s2w/s2s work. UV was really something this device needed. Max cpu temp was about 42℃ and it was idling around 6 degrees above ambient temperature, so it is a lot cooler than when I used different kernels. Battery time is also pretty good. The device has very good deep sleep now in combination with IC and greenify.
Although this kernel is imho the best kernel for the One mini, it still has some issues. The first one is that the launcher redraws pretty often, but I can't say this is because of the kernel. I also experienced this with the kernel that is packed with IC. The second issue is that when I lower the cpu freqs, either with trickster mod or synapse, they don't stick. As soon as I leave the app the frequencies go back to default. And the last thing I found was that after a while I got problems with connection. WiFi and mobile kept going on and off. Clearing cache/dalvik cache fixed it.
Anyway, thank you for this kernel and I hope you will support us for some time!

Yes eventually you have to clear caches since i recompiled a newer wifi module..regarding frequency issues not sticking its due to pnpmgr doing scaling stuff on its own..regarding redraws as explained earlier its due to some memory mapping HTC did to the kernel source..at my best, i did salvage a bit of memory from the GPU..well on next release i will balance the GPU memory to the system memory in proportion to alleviate issues..
Thanks for the feedback..next updates will be abit chunky..L2M is for testing already..and for those fetish with MLG..i will not add it..i won't contribute to backdoor exploits to android thus i am striving my best to eliminate memory leaks which in the latter can cause battery drains or high memory usage..
BTW the kernel packed with IC is mine.. (i made it)
Hi, Kairi
Having issuses with Kernel. Frequ. wont stick in synapse.
If I try to reduce from 1.7 to 1.4 everytime i leave synapse frequencies are on 1.7
Checked permissions of different files and folders all seems to be right so far.
Have you any advice?
Reinstalled app.. cleared cache + dalvik ...I´m on latest Liberty ROM
Thanks for your time and work...to support this device

thanks for the report..next release i will lock the cpu frequncies down to stock.. as explained earlier..we have a closed source binary named "pnpmgr" that does frequency scaling on its own..so no matter how you change frequencies it will always revert to what that binary wants..
