Undervolt?

THIS THREAD IS MEANT FOR DEVS ON THE MATTER OF UNDERVOLT
According to the guy who made setcpu.
pershoot just changed the voltage used by adjusting the voltages (in mV) in the acpu_freq_tbl table in acpuclock-scorpion.c
So if we just edit the table in our own acpuclock-arm11.c(or acpuclock-arm11.c-OCing), that should give us undervolt?
It can't be that simple?
Code:
/* MSM7201A Levels 3-6 all correspond to 1.2V, level 7 corresponds to 1.325V. */
enum {
VDD_0 = 0,
VDD_1 = 1,
VDD_2 = 2,
VDD_3 = 3,
VDD_4 = 4,
VDD_5 = 5,
VDD_6 = 6,
VDD_7 = 7,
VDD_END
};
Thanks to kleranc for idea.
I should probably update this since it has been reincarnated for some reason. lol.
Regardless, this image will explain everything(thanks jus10o for the nice drawing):

I have to be clear about a few things though:
Under my own testing, and from my own experiences; our processor isn't capable of exerting itself that much. So if you are using an undervolted kernel, it really only undervolts the higher frequencies as you can see in the table above. This is good and bad.
Good: Because you're not using that much juice from the battery and you keep a lower core temp
Bad: Because you may notice performance loss
It also has to be noted that not all processors will behave equally: you may experience no performance loss, or you may experience complete loss. It's a roll of the dice.
About lower frequencies and undervolting(from GSM Hero forum):

To all
Now, about the 'undervolting': A lot of talk and discussion has been going on in the kernel thread(s), and I think every kernel 'hacker' in the end ended up with pretty much the same frequency table and settings. Going lower than VDD_3 ended up in waking-issues or not-responding heroes. Some worked, most didn't. You see the ROMs here and there that used 19mhz and / or VDD_2 or lower now releasing updated versions with just a bit more juice and mhz during sleep, because some heroes really aren't waking up properly.
Or aging 7200 just needs a bit of juice apparently

Is the only benefit of undervolting better battery life?

Well at higher-frequencies we'd benefit a lot on battery life. With just about everyone using Overclock kernels, this could really help out.
For some of us, battery life means a lot.

So phusson has a simple fix for dropping VDD levels.

Name sounds familiar? Yeah he's the same guy who helped us get overlocking on our msm7k phones
So credit to him. Should have somthing ready by tomorrow.

if i am not mistaken lowering the voltage would increase the heat at high clock speeds. this is just a guess from my engineering background.

Yes it would increase the heat, but no substantially. Besides, we wouldn't decrease the voltage too much. Finding just a "safe" undervolt to conserve battery(if it exists).

figured i should update since this has been done...

Huh? Excuse me, but I have an engineering background too (materials science) and must have missed that lecture. What is the principle behind this? I'm really skeptical because I'm 99% sure from my years of PC modding experience that a lower voltage is synonymous with better battery life, longer life-time (opposite effect of over-volting), and lower temperatures.
There are no disadvantages other than instability, which only happens if your voltage is TOO low.
Edit: here's a source that backs my claim

But will this work on sense based ROMs? I know that the frameworks are different with AOSP ROMs. I've been wanting to do this for a while now but I have no expertise at all.

RE: c00ller
I have to agree with c00ller on this. As an engineer with a physics background, and more importantly, an avid PC overclocker, it is considered common knowledge that lower voltages produce less heat, decrease power consumption, and sacrifice stability at higher clock speeds.
Considering that some of our hero's can be clocked up to 768 mHz stable, undervolting should be doable to a reasonable extent. In fact, if somebody wanted to keep stock frequencies, ie up to only 528, a significant amount of undervolting could probably be accomplished.

Check out my blue echo rom later tonight. Decadence just built me a boot.img for my rom with oc/UV at 710 oc and free autokiller built in. Ill upload tonight and its a sense based rom

Just for the sake of clarity:
Will this work on sense roms? (a simple yes or no will do)
Can this be worked into existing kernels?
If someone has a free second, if you want to throw the undervolting into darch's 710 kernel for fresh 2.3.3, i'll test it within 10 minutes of it being posted and throw my results out here.

Is the undervolted kernel that you're going to post a mod of the "DarchKernelv4 710mhz with Free Memory Tweak For Fresh 2.1.1/2.1.2/2.3.3" ??
Some people were reporting possible issues with the FreeMem Tweak and there was talking rolling back to v3...so, are you basing off of v3 or v4? And am I correct in thinking that's the right kernel family?

The kernel is #15 from darchdroid 2.7 from the uv.zip just thrown together with the ramdisk from 2.3.3. That equals the new boot.img.

How to Overclock your Sidekick 4G to 1.2GHz! (Stable)

We can now overclock our sidekicks ! First off all you need is root for this to work.
NEED ROOT!
Overclock can be harmful to your hardware.

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_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"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.

Sorry to hear, not sure why your having probs with the app it working fine on my end. well hopefully we'll have another way to OC soon, but this is fine for noe

A least on my device, I haven't found any amount of overclock that is stable.
When overclocked and under heavy load with OpenGL, the device crashes within 5 minutes.

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...

How do we go about reverting back to a stock setup? Or how do we undo the overclock?

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.

What is 'overclocking' ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Overclocking means to raise the frequency of you processor (CPU) beyond a certain limit, mostly set by the manufacturer for safety and battery life purposes. You can avoid this by installing a kernel on your device, which supports overclocking. After-all, proper overclocking will give you more performance in the general user interface and more frames per second (fps) in games. But you have to be aware that overclocking might also have impact on your battery life. In most cases, overclocking by a few hundred MHZ is not dangerous. But if overclocked too high, your device might become unresponsible and act weird.
Fine, but what does 'GPU overclocking' mean then?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
GPU overclocking is basically the same as overclocking your processor unit, but this time we don't want to raise the cpu clock speeds, but the clock speedings and performance of your graphics processing unit (GPU). Other than the processor overclocking, this feature is not user-scalable in my kernel. I have raised 3D clocks to a higher, fixed level which I feel is the best for a balanced experience between gaming, video performance, general ui-responsiveness and battery life.
You talk about 'governors' all the time. What's this?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Governors decide on how the power resources of your cpu are divided on the tasks it receives. For example, some governors pay more attention to offer the highest performance level when needed, while others concentrate on a balanced experience between power and battery life. In addition, a governor decides on how fast you cpu clocks are ramped up and down, thus affecting the battery life again.
Ok, I got that. But what the hell are those 'schedulers' you mentioned?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Schedulers decide on how the incoming workload is split and handled, for example some schedulers will pay more attention to background process and super-stability of your system, while others try to achieve the best user-experience, spending and using more power on the foreground-processes that are visible and user-affected.
Last but not least, what's the matter with that 'zRam' thingy?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
zRam is an improved version of a feature in the staging driver in the linux kernel, earlier known as compcache. zRam increases performance by avoiding paging on disk and instead uses a compressed block device in RAM in which paging takes place until it is necessary to use the swap space on the hard disk drive. Since using RAM is faster than using disks, zRam allows Linux to make more use of RAM when swapping/paging is required, especially on older computers with less RAM installed. Along with virtual page allocation for our RAM modules, it affects the workload of the system in a lot of ways.

Pretty smooth, however, had a screen freeze and a SOD shortly after
Was using TeamEOS build 81 with 1.4 Ghz OC with smartassV2 and noop
Never had screen freeze with the stock kernel, did have some SOD though.
Could that be due to the GPU overclock? Could you provide a version without GPU OC?
Thanks!

So far.. running at 1.6 Ghz (smartassv2 / noop) and playing 'Need For Speed Most Wanted' it's as smooth as silk. No stuttering, no crashing - nothing but butter. Will update if something starting happening, but that's the fastest, most graphic intensive game I have right now, so I can't see anything else having an issue.
I flashed from timduru's KatKernel and feel RaymanFX's has bumped the performance of my tablet with this kernel, though the extra overclocking his kernels seem comfortable with probably have a part to play.
I should note, 1.6 Ghz is right on the edge of what the TF101 can do. Saner minds should set yourself at 1.5 (and I'll probably drop back myself).

Tried on TF101 - no Wifi
Thanks for this kernel.
It installed without error on my TF101 using Revolver 4.2.1.
After boot, Wifi was no showing on the notification area, and I could not enable it.
I saw the earlier post about this issue, but it seemed to me that a newer version correcting the Wifi had been uploaded.
Do you have any suggestions?

[Q] (req) gpu oc N5

Can any dev out there add GPU oc too their kernel ? I have a nexus 7 (2013) with GPU running at 600mhz
I was wondering if it'd be possible at all too do the same on the nexus 5. Considering its been done on the xperia z1 which uses the same GPU.
Xperia kernel thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660679
Would it be possible or difficult? I know that kernel is only compatible with CM' and I wouldn't mind if that was a requirement for it too work on the N5 but id prefer it was implemented on a kernel that would work with slimkat -specifically- slimkat 4.4.2 v3.2 stable
Any response or help on this subject would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the fast response ' I'll check it out hope it suits my needs

its possible, but its pointless. you get no gain from it, except faster battery loss. and thats not really any gain. plus we are limited to 60 fps, no matter what. you can disable the fps limit, but you will get screen tearing from it.
to unlock the fps limit..
debug.egl.swapinterval=0
copy/paste this line into /system/build.prop/then reboot for it to take affect.

I'm not looking for battery life which is why I asked, I have my max CPU speed set @ 1.5ghz and max of 2 cores on ever, I lose 1% battery overnight, I just wanna see what this thing can produce

as i said, you will not see any gain from it. ive already done some testing with it. if there was any gain from kit, it would of been done with trinity kernel in december. but, there wasnt any gain, so it was left behind.

the gpu on the nexus 5 actually scales, between 200mhz and 450mhz. so its not always using 450mhz, only when needed. you see more gain from setting the min and max gpu speed to 450mhz than you see from overclocking the gpu.

Thanks for the info , I appreciate it ! I was disappointed trinity didn't have it , I was very fond of that kernel and GPU oc on my galaxy nexus

I'll play around with that kernel for a while and exp with the min and max frequencies too find what works best for me, and I'll probably go back to setting CPU freq @ 2.5ghz max 1.5ghz min , I know I have a problem and a real need for speed
Another question, would I have too manually edit the GPU speed on uberkernel using root explorer? I didn't see Amy config options GPU related on trickster mod, maybe I should use kernel tuner instead ?

I believe stock clock is 533 on uber kernel.

Hi,
There are the GPU settings in Trickster Mod (frequency and governor). You need to update the app with the last beta version since they added support for the Adreno 330. It's under the specific tab.
And yes 533 Mhz is the default GPU clock in this kernel, but you can underclock to the stock GPU freq (450 Mhz) with Trickster Mod.

66K Antutu?!

So I just ran Antutu benchmark and got 66000 points!

Normally it should be around 40-48k or not?
What scores are you achieving with your Note 3 ?
I used Note 3 Hlte SM-N9005XXUGBOD3 - Temaseks CM13 v10.0 - idlekernel @2.73 - CPU Governor: performance and battery settings to more power.

Woah that was crazy! And that all is green!
You already on par with SD805! (Right?)
By the way, 55k is my record with n900
Aurora rom with SueMax kernel
My setting is min and max freq @ 2.0ghz lol (btw, not my daily settings, just for benchmark)

@pitopika13 ,Crazyyyy?what the ****,this is crazy................My record..........

Wow I knew that you could get theoretical note 4 performance with an OC'd Note 3 but now almost as much as Note 5 ? I think I found another reason to keep this bulky phone with me :laugh:

My highest was 59k with phronesis note 5 port.

hello guys , I'll come back with a better score ..........

I do 63 000 each time with this 6.0 Touchwiz ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/6-0-1-touchwiz-marshmallow-note-3-t3349306

I used to get 69k with note 5 port+overclocked lean kernel. Still it's just a benchmarking. I was using power saving daily because at the end battery life is more important.

Got 58k as DarkLord ROM without optimization.

I would realy like to see a screenshot if that score. :laugh:
Managed to squize a little bit more out of my note 3 and got 67508 points (with better GPU governor)

Woah stock! With all stability, you could get that high on n900, maybe i should go back to stock eh lol
Since my 55k score mean my phone would be unstable for daily usage.

I just think that Antutu gives the highest values ​​in the new version only for new phone models have very high ratings. In previous versions just get around 40k and 54k now without changing the Rom or overclock or anything.

Yess, you're right, i6s used to be around 68k below the S6 and now, it is all the way to the 130k?! I know the new app version is more compatible with the new platform but that's far
Back on topic
I think it's almost impossible to best my own score @55k with my settings, always around 54-55k, i havent try any other rom though. :silly:

Can you guys give some tips on kernel settings etc before benchmark?

What's your phone version? (N900 or N9005)
Also dont rely on kernel only, a stable rom also gives a good antutu score.

N9005 -I am just curious as all the Rom's I have tested are give or take 45-55k score so when I saw these screenshots I assumed there must be kernel configurations you make prior to benchmarking..

I posted all settings below the screenshot in #1
Only changed GPU governor to performance later on.
