Xperia X10 mini pro [MOD] FroyoComb v1.2
What is the best cpu frequency for stabile working, i use set cpu app for this.
I use 'coservative' scalling Min: 768 Mhz (when some problems i reduce to 748MHZ or 600Mhz when i dont need more performance) Max: 787 MHz or even 808 Mhz but this freq is too high. Is this scalling are good or use different (ondemand,performance)
Also i have question when my phone is blocked (screen is off) cpu freq back to normal low freq or still have the same freq like in set cpu app ?
No one can give specifics as even with one model of phone the quality of CPU changes so set frequencies differ.
EG: i'm using DHD with 1.6GHz OC "smartass" but some users top out on 1.3GHz, could OC more stable but don't need, regards underclock i've screen off "Powersave" lowest frequency 245MHz don't forget to set priority high.
There is more you can do with set CPU such as underclock on less battery so know get more for criticle phone usage, also temp based so again saving power.
Anyway best bet is to look for other users of x10 and see what they top etc.
I tried to search but was unsuccessful to find the information that I wanted.
Can someone tell me what are the recommended safe undervolt settings for the transformer?
I'm running prime 1.9 with clemsyn-blades 1.6a.
Thx

I don't know what the stock settings are but I can tell you the process I followed when I OCed my tablet. Install the custom kernel and rom you want. Then install an app to modify frequency and voltages. I use setCPU but pimpmycpu works also.
1. Find the highest clock you can attain with the provided overvolt from the kernel. To do this just start at the highest frequency and see if the tablet reboots or locks during a stress test. Some people play games to stress. I use the built in stress tester in SetCPU. Make sure to apply the higher frequency for testing but not to apply settings on reboot or you could get stuck in a reboot loop (or so I am assuming the kernel might reset to 1 GHz when a hard lock occurs).
2. Once you have the maximum Frequency (for me it was 1.644 MHz) then start lowering the voltage for that frequency only until you loose stability. I can undervolt 1.644 by -75 mV. If I go upto -100 then I get random reboots. I go in -25 mV increments but you could narrow it down even more by going with -10 or even -5 intervals.
3. Take the offset you got (in my case -75 mV)on the highest frequency and apply it to every frequency above 1 GHz and see if this is stable. If not then slowely increase voltage until you gain stability again.
4. (Optional) Then start undervolting stock frequencies from 216 MHz to 1 GHz. Every tablet is different but (I have heard) this could cause sleep issues. I undervolted all frequencies from above 216 to 1000 GHz by -25 Mv without any issues. I may bring it down slowely by increments of-5 or -10 until I run into some issues.
5. (Optional) Undervolt 216 MHz as low as possible to save standby battery power. I undervolted my 216 MHz to 725 mV (even though SetCPu goes lower the kernel is locked at this). Which helps keep my battery levels up when the tablet screen is off and not in use.
Hints: To test that a voltage is okay at a certain frequency then make sure to set your max to the frequency level you want to test. If you set the max at 1544 and undervolt 1 GHz you will never know if it is okay because when you stress it it will blow right past 1 GHz upto 1544 and the voltage for that will take over.
If you have any questions please let me know.

I get a stable undervolt at -50 on all cpu steps which is pretty good. This should save loads of battery.

I started at the top and went down every stepping from 1624 to 1000 and found out the lowest stable frequency and then added 10 to be safe to each one. I am currently at
1624 (-70)
1592 (-80)
1544 (-180)
1472 (-80)
1424 (-160)
1336 (-185)
1232 (-185)
1000 (- 110) which is 990 mV
I then set every stepping under 1 GHz frequency that was above 990 mV to 990 mV as if it can run at 1 GHz at that voltage then any speed under that will run fine at that voltage also. I have some more stability testing to do but I think I got it pretty much nailed down for my device. I may go through all the sub 1 GHz frequencies but it does take some time to run a stress test under each stepping.
Also I have never had any sleep issues but that is something to look out for. I also wonder how temperature affects stability as I have never gotten it above 40c. The pad might benefit from a 1 or 2mm thermal pad squeezed between the CPU and the back bezel (if it will fit).
Does anyone know that tjunction max for a Tegra2? I have a profile set up in SetCPU that sets the CPU frequency at 1 GHz if the CPU gets above 42 because I saw something similar in the Clemsyn rom but don't really know when the CPU will start to throttle itself at or shut off.
I am trying to find stock voltages for different devices because it seems like some mfgs are undervolting to save battery on some tablets.

-180 in some frequencies!! Thats just insane. I've got to try this.
FYI, you don't have to lower voltage for all upper 1ghz frequencies. If your running at 1544 for exemple. The cpu will never touch the frequencies between 1000 and 1544. After the 1000 its a direct step to whatever frequency your overclocking too. You can monitor this in setcpu.
I cannot undervolt as precise as you can. For some reason setcpu only let me do 25mv increment...

I have undervolted by -175 on all frequencies, obviously 216Mhz is locked but all seems pretty stable after some testing. No sleep death either so I'm going to carry on testing.

In SetCPU do not use the slider use the keyboard and type in the exact number you want.
I wanted to figure out every stepping in case I wanted to switch to a lower frequency but yeah most poeple don't have to do this.
The lowest stable I have gotten is -190 but feel like adding 10 padding will ensure stability.
I will probably do the sub 1 GHz frequencies today or tomorrow.

I have tested each voltage. I am under the impression that 725 mV is the kernel minimum in the Clemsyn kernel so once I hit that I just set every frequency under that too 725. I will eventually go through and stress test every frequency @ 725 to make sure everything is a-okay but I am sure it is.
Here is my list incase anyone wants a place to start.
1680 MHz (-000) I can not overclock to this freuqency.
1624 MHz (-070) 1380 mV
1592 MHz (-080) 1345 mV
1544 MHz (-180) 1220 mV
1472 MHz (-080) 1220 mV
1424 MHz (-160) 1115 mV
1336 MHz (-185) 1065 mV
1232 MHz (-185) 990 mV
1000 MHz (-215) 885 mV
0912 MHz (-215) 835 mV
0816 MHz (-235) 790 mV
0760 MHz (-215) 760 mV
0608 MHz (-225) 725 mV
0456 MHz (-100) 725 mV
0312 MHz (-075) 725 mV
0216 MHz (-025) 725 mV
Clemsyn said the minimum mV in his kernel but I can't seem to find the thread, but I think it was 725. If I find out it is something lower I will go through the lower ones until I hit the minimum.
Also please note that everything above 1 GHz has +10 mV padding added to it above the lowest stable I could find. Everything below 1 GHz only has a +5 mV padding on it. So for example I actually hit a -240 w/o any issues @ 816 MHz.
I tested in +/-5 mV increments but if you wanted you could narrow it down even further.
EDIT: Also after some testing it looks like it does use frequencies between 1 GHz and your max. I have it set to 1644 and it does hit 1232 MHz occasionally.

Thanks for this mate. I followed your guide exactly and I'm using clems 16? Kernel completely stable at all frequencies including the undervolting!
Based on my testing you need ~ a +15 to +25 mV over stable CPU voltage to get stable 3D GPU.
I found that I could run hours of "Stress CPU" without any issues at a voltage but during stressful 3D games that are using CPU + GPU cores, at that same frequency, the machine would FC the app, reboot or lock. I have also noticed that the closer you are to the stable voltage different things will happen.
Far off - machine will usually reboot
Closer - machine will usually hard lock
Even closer - Apps will FC, widgets will act strange (like invert colors, black blocks for backgrounds, etc.)
So what I do now is I test with Dungeon Defenders at the main menu. Its seems that if you can last 1 hr at the Dungeon Defenders menu you are GTG. If you actually play the game then 1 stage is what I use to test.

I always wanted to learn more about the mV and CPU speed stuff. I always install rom, install kernel of the one I heard the better is and that's it. Never had touched the voltage measure in any of my android device. Yeah i know, so noob.
Thanks for this how to info, I think I will play around a bit later. Right now I'm struggling with my self on wish of the 3 roms available install and stay.
Had to remove undervolt this weekend since my camera wouldnt start anymore. I'll have to redo all the tests I was doing but test for camera too. The tablet would just freeze as soon as I opened the camera app

My camera does not work either. I just figured it was Clemsyns kernel not the OC. I don't know anything about cameras but maybe they use a lot of voltage so the voltage to the CPU dips.
I never used the camera personally, but I will test it some and see what additional mV you need over stable to get the camera working.
Also I noticed the more you undervolt (it seems to me) the harder it is to undock with an app open. usually instead of reloading they FC or lock the device so i just make sure to hit the home key before I undock then alt tab right back into the app.

My camera did not work at 912 MHz at stock voltage on 17b but now on 18 I can do my normal undervolt settings and the camera works fine.
Hi,
I'm running NSCollab 1.0.50 with franco.kernel from Nov. 13 on a I9020a.
I'm playing around with undervolting the cpu and trying to find the minimum stable voltages. My procedure is to start the voltage as low as the voltage for the frequency step before it and then increase the voltage in 25mV steps until everything is stable. I am using SetCPU to adjust the voltages.
So far this has worked for every frequency step except for the 100MHz step. I can't seem to find the lowest voltage for 100MHz. For example, the 200MHz step will be unstable at 750mV but is stable at 775mV. The 100MHz step is never unstable no matter how low I set the voltage. I can even set it to 0mV (which I know is ridiculous) and it wont freeze.
Does anyone know why the phone doesn't become unstable at ridiculously low voltages for the 100MHz step? I see that the slider to adjust voltages in SetCPU only goes down to 600mV but I can manually type in lower voltage values. Is there some kind of hard-set voltage minimum for the cpu that even SetCPU can't bypass when setting the voltage? Is the phone violating the laws of physics?
Thanks in advance
What's your min frequency in setcpu?
Oh yeah, I should have posted that.
100MHz min
1000MHz max
lazy scaling
i heard that ...
force phone running in low mV MAY damage the CPU and other parts of it and destablize it...
=================================
i have seen some applications that would ignore your input value when it is not logical ...
for example like NS tools , one of them , i don't remember which exactly , perhaps it's live OC, for live OC, if you set value lower then 100 , it would automatically set back to 100 ... i think this may be same as your min frequency case...

The method you are using is wrong. I did the same thing a few days ago, and changing the values like that won't work.
What I found out is that to easily find stable values, in SetCPU put your max as 200MHz and your min at 100MHz. Use ondemand. Keep 200MHz at stock volts and 100MHz try an undervolt.
Apply everything then slide the minimum frequency slider around a bit. I guarantee you 600mv will freeze. Do the same for each value, if testing 200MHz, use 400MHz as your max and 200MHz as your min, stock volts for 400MHz. Slide the minimum frequency left and right.
Sounds weird, but it works. Do this until you find a voltage for each frequency. Then put your frequency max and frequency min at the same value (IE 200MHz) and launch a game or a demanding app and play for a lil while, even if performance suck. Hope it doesn't freeze on you, but if it does, bump the voltage a bit.
If you want good starting values, here's the values I have found that work for me and are 100% stable. No force close over the last few days since I started using those:
100MHz 875mv (75mv under stock)
200MHz 875mv (75mv under stock)
400MHz 900mv (150mv under stock)
800MHz 1125mv (75mv under stock)
1000MHz 1225mv (25mv under stock)
Hi,
1) I have installed Kyorarom 0.5.2 OC kernel and here are my SetCPU profiles.
Main - Min: 300 Mhz, Max: 800Mhz
On Call - Min: 83, Max: 400, Priority: 100
Time - 11 PM to 6 AM - Min: 83, Max: 200, Priority: 99
Screen Off: Min: 83, Max: 400, Priority: 98.
My problem is, if I use my phone after 11PM, the time profile gets activated.
But when screen is on, I want to use the main profile. How can I do that?
2) Which governor has less stress on CPU? Conservative or Lagfree?
3) When in the main profile, my phone constantly runs at my max setting, (ie) 800 Mhz. It never runs lower than that. Why does it happen?

HI,
1) I dont think that's even possible man... would be nice though
2) conservative
3) how do you know that its for constant? and that's normal if you've chosen 'performance' gov'ner.

1) Okay. I thought that the main profile is something like a "screen on" profile, which would override all others.
3) I checked using CPU Spy. My phone is always at the highest frequency. I am using conservative.
try a different governor / kernel

I'm not sure about the constant 800. even if it is, as long as battery works well, everything is OK

Well, even if the battery works fine, running the processor constantly at 800 MHz will decrease its life.
Does your phone too behave the same way as mine?

Agree with you on that point. But you still didn't answer my question
1) Not possible.
2) Conservative.
3) Problem with conservative governor in Kyoyakernel maybe.
Advice : - Always use On Demand.
Find Kryllios ROM instructioin, he have sugeested good settings to get maximum battery life...........
Max 300 - MHz and Min 1200 Mhz...what is this!
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S II I9100G and rooted it with Kernel superatoms v3.0 XXLA1 and installed SetCPU 2.3.0.2 in it.
Now, when I set the max and min slider to 1200 MHz (with Governer hotplug) and goes back to the home screen, after that, when I again open SetCPU, the max slider gets to 300 MHz and the min to 1200 MHz (with Governer powersave).
What is this, man!!! How can the processor run with maximum speed of 300 MHz and the minimum of 1200 MHz ....
Plzz...I need help
Hello!
as I finaly rooted my TF (after a year of stock ) I have already hit few obstacles while making it perfect. Now i have a question regarding overclocking.
My device: ARHD Rom with guevors kernel 21.4
I use my TF at 1,6ghz via SetCPU. In CPUStats it says it doesnt use 1,4ghz and 1.5ghz freqs at all as the time at those freqs is zero. But when I clock it up to 1.4 or 1.5, it does use them (note: when set to 1.5ghz, 1.4ghz freq is still not used). What could be the reason for that?
Thank you for your answers

Looking at cpu histories it usually defaults to the lower stuff except when you do complex calculations, in which it uses as much as it can until it's done. That's why it doesn't use those middle freqs as much, if that makes any sense.
I agree with Thing o Doom. A lot depends on what the processor/software decides it needs or wants.
I stopped using a wide range of frequency like 216-1200 and stuck with a straight 1200MHz only on the min and max.
Depending on the CPU load will determine whether it even hits a certain frequency and also based on the type of governor.
If you have a governor that is set for performance and your range is 1400 - 1600, the governor interacts with the rest of the system and may ramp straight up to 1600 without every hitting 1500.
Hope that expands on Doom's answer.
I use interactive gov. and usualy cpu clocks scale at every cpu freq described in kernels scaling. I use 216-1400 now and cpu uses all clocks in that range (depends on the need ofc). But if i use 216-1600 then not all of the freqs are used. I meant to say if u scale it to 216-1600 there should be some point where cpu would use 1400mhz freq, but mine doesnt at all. So the scaling goes from 1200 directly to 1600 and no in between resulting the cpu to be more time at higher clocks when not actualy needed (when it could just use 1400 or 1500mhz).
Anyway, i now use scale of 216-1400mhz and seems to be working great dunno why I even bothered with 1600, but this one thing not scaling at those two freqs did scare me as I thought there is smth wrong with my tf
