Hey guys I know it's probably been discussed before but I really need to find the correct info. I'm looking to save battery life to the fullest. I even went and bought the 3500mah battery and it seems to improve a lot. Now I just flashed the infusion kernel and want to learn about under clocking. Any help?
Just throwing this out there, but your best bet would be to check in the general section. People are going to end up jumping on you for posting in the wrong section.

Yeah but would this pertain to roms and kernels which is development. Thank you for you concern though. Also I'm noticing that when I lock my phone or while its charging and locked and I touch the backlit buttons on the bottom of the screen they turn on. Um why? Haha

BLN, and honestly the best way to learn about UV'ing is by trail and error. Each phone can handles uv'ing differently. Some can take a lot, while others cant. If you want to learn some more in depth look through the kernels thread and somewhere in there is a guide to everything pertaining to overclocking.
Ah. Ok I gotcha. Is there a way to turn that off Usps when I touch it it doesn't come on. I likethe notification idea though. Also how exactly does unvolting work. I don't mind playing around but how do I use it. Lol

Also, if you are asking a question, even pertaining to roms, it goes in general. He was being nice about it, but this really doesn't belong here.

Ah so only posts no questions? Mods could you move it if it doesn't belong here please.

I would suggest reading through the Infusion thread. I know it's long, but here's the basics:
If using SetCPU (I know a lot of people say you should only use Voltage Control, but no one has been able to specifically point to why, leading me to believe that it's just a bunch of placebo effect crud, since the kernel does all the work and the sysfs interface used by both is the same.
In general: Start with small UV values and then work your way down. Values that work for some people fail for others. For example, some people manage to undervolt by 100 mV at 100-400 MHz, I get SoDs if I undervolt by more than 50 at 100/200 and 75 at 400.
The general rule for the dev forum is: If you have a question that is not answered in the thread for a kernel/ROM and is specific to that ROM, you can post it in that ROM's thread. MAKE SURE you read/search the thread to see if your question has not already been answered! Never post a new thread unless you are specifically raising a development-related topic. (Bug reports and feature requests is NOT development. Exception that I would personally accept is that if you see a bugfix commit in github against a kernel for another Samsung device, or possibly a non-Samsung device that has a bugfix against hardware we have, such as the BCM4330 wifi chipset's crappy power management, and the bug affects our devices, I'd be interested in knowing about the commit so I can investigate applying it.)
Does anyone have interest or any info on android OpenMPI or equivalent?
Seems that while GPU implementations are obvious, I haven't read any good information CPU side development. Maybe it's irrelevant at this time, but interesting nonetheless.
p.s. Sorry if this belongs in the Q and A but SIMD/MIMD seems somewhat technical.
Made some progress...
Still researching this in my free time. I'll report back with a more constructive post soon.
LOL
Most smarphones use AMR architechture, which I believe is more like a GPU than a CPU ( I may be wrong I don't much)
However, I think you would be interested by this

As more and more kernels are made available to the public, the more the governors and schedulers... Although I can find info on some of them, there are many others which I know nothing about... I have tried searching and thats how I learned about some of the governors but about the rest? Can someone help me?
Sent from my brain which is in Bahamas

a 5s search gave me a gigantic list of governors/schedulers and info about them. is 19 governors enough?
Basically this was the thread that i found as well... But still thx
I was going through the Android Software and Hacking General and found some interesting tweaks. Has anyone tried these out?

General rule of thumb is to see how your phone is running w/ the ROM you've installed before running one of these scripts. More often than not, whatever additional script(s) you run will conflict with one or more optimizations that were already built into the ROM by the developer.
If you feel there is more optimal performance to be gained after running whatever ROM you're on, please READ, READ and READ some more on what the script is going to provide for you before you run it. This will help avoid bootloops, allow you to know exactly what you're tweaking, and help you make an informed decision without blowing up a developer's page stating that their ROM is @ fault for any degradation in performance.
Also, since you're curious about scripts, you may want to study this one as well:

thats the most pointless piece of crap script for a modern nexus device. its meant for old school devices like og droid or the g1. most those "magic" scripts. are meant for old school devices. using it on a nexus 5 would be grounds to be laughted at.

none, never would even consider using them on a nexus 5. maybe if i was still using my old g1, with a tiny bit of ram, id consider. never on a device with 2gb of ram, or 1gb lol.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe I was advocating the use of any of those scripts, including the additional one I posted. I merely instructed the OP to read and review any of the ones he's curious in before running it. Bashing another developer's work, regardless of how antiquated it may be or how little of functionality it may serve for the N5, was unnecessary.
I know you probably meant well, but that response was out of line.

I haven't ran any on the N5 since I've been content with how performance has been without additional scripts.
As another poster has mentioned, many of these scripts are built for devices that aren't equipped with as much RAM. In any event, you'll be best served to read thoroughly before running one of them.

The performance on the nexus 5 is amazing, of course, but I want it optimized to the utmost. Anyways, the V6 SuperCharge doesn't support kitkat so thats out.

No worries, and again, I know you meant well.
I also agree that many of those scripts serve the N5 no good in the long run, and ultimately cause more headaches than happiness.

if you want performance and optimization, stay away from those scripts. find yourself a good kernel, a clean rom, and enjoy your device.
Hello,
I designed and built a coffee table with an integrated screen running KitKat 4.4.2. It has 4Gig of RAM and the CPU is a dual core Intel celeron clocked at 1.8 ghz. I want to post pictures and in depth descriptions of everything. I would Also like to receive feedback and constructive criticism, but I have no idea what section to post in. Any help is appreciated.
P.S.It has an AnTuTu benchmark of 3658.
*bump*

I am not an expert or moderator or something, but since you bumped this and seem impatient I know that there is a subforum where developers post their Apps and Games which is probably not what you want. However, I see that that subforum is under this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/android ("Android Development and Hacking") which includes another subforum titled "Miscellaneous Android Development". Have a look into this and see if it includes what you want to post about.
Coffee table with an integrated computer sounds like an interesting thing :laugh: I will keep an eye to find your thread when you post about it!
Cheers
OK thanks. I will try there tonight after work. Appreciate the help.
Yeah, My little 2 year old brother has been playing non-stop on there for the last two days. That's the first thing he wants when he wakes up...lol
