What is core control/vdd restriction/core throttle? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I see these three options I'm various kernel tweaking apps and just curious what each one does.
Core control is usually enabled and the app has a warning not to use more than one all though I've used various combos of the three with no difference.
Thanks

Did you find the answer to this? I've been looking for this as well.

Core Control : Enable / disable throttling, this enables the thermal engine and enable VDD restriction and core throttle
VDD Restriction : Limits CPU voltage, limiting it will decrease temperature
Core Throttle : Throttles CPU when enabled, this decrease CPU frequency to a lower step when it reaches a specified temperature
// This is all I know, btw. This could be wrong, so I advise an extra Google search just in case

Wondering this as well, which one is best?

As far as I know it's a way that kernel manages the cpu...so it won't burn.
When cpu gets hot it will limit the cores (core control) or their frequency (core throttle)so it will decrease cpu usage and makes it cooler...
Both will impact cpu at high temperatures but having them on is an insurance that you won't melt your cpu...and having 2 or three enabled will limit cpu cores and frequency so it will be snail speed at high temperature (will cool down sooner but it impacts cpu very high... And may get bug)
Suggest to set core control and as long as you maintain temperature...none of them have any difference.

these thermal driver is not thermal throttling disable it can't get rid of thermal throttle, these driver control cpu frequency between cpu governor. core control is for low end phone base on mpdecision and replace it, but core control never unplug any cpu core when idle. useless driver

- In Thermal settings of Smartpack Kernel Manager enable SoC Temperature throttle instead of Core Control.
- In Smartpack Kernel Manager set CPU governor of little CPU to something like "relaxed" if your ROM/Kernel Supports it (on crDroid for example)
- In CPU hotplug settings of Smartpack set minimum of big CPUs to 0.
Make sure to enable those settings in Smartpack at boot with the Switch at top of the corresponding Module in Smartpack.
And you need root/magisk for these Kernel Tweaks to work.

[CM12.1/AICP] Tuning Battery Life on N900

Tuning Battery Life on Samsung Note 3 N900
I don't have a device anymore, but I still wish to share my experience and how I achieved 6 hours SoT with my typical daily usage on this phone.
This guide is for CM12.1 / AICP 10.0 (I recommend latter, it's the same CM 12.1 but with more options).
You can try this settings on aurora/stock ROMs with respective custom kernel (Suemax).
First of all, you need a kernel with Synapse support. This section is for CM12.1/AICP only! Don't try to flash these kernels if you are on Aurora/Stock - you'll have bootloop!
-- Download Stock and DJMax81's V2 kernel from this post and Suemax kernel from this post.
-- Make a backup
-- Flash CM12.1-DJmax81-Kernel-Lite-V2.zip
-- Boot your phone once and open Camera app to ensure it works.
-- Reboot to recovery and flash CM12.1-SueMax-Kernel-V3-By-DJMAX81.zip dirty. No need to wipe cashes.
-- If you encounter issues, restore backup or flash CM12.1-Stock.zip to return to the stock CM12.1 kernel.
Now you can fine-tune your Exynos!
First, disable touchboost. It's some sort of cheating Samsung use to make it's touchwiz not so laggy. On stock Android you simply don't need it, even if you set max CPU to lowly 250 Mhz, Stock Android UX is still decently smooth.
How to do this: open Synapse, go to the QoS tab. There are many, many sliders to control boost in different situations. Slide every one of them to the left. Now you gave full control of your phone freq to the governor.
This setting alone gave me up to 1 hour of SoT when texting or browsing. Because these are not demanding tasks and there's no need for CPU freq to ramp up.
Second, set min GPU speed to 100 MHz. This will save some juice when idle. Go to GPU Control in settings and set the corresponding Min freq slider to 100 MHz, then apply (you need to push the Set GPU settings button and a tick at the right top). You can also adjust Max GPU freq to suit your gaming needs. The more max GPU speed, the better gaming perfomance will be and the worse battery life in games (600 MHz stock value).
Third, let's go to Kernel Adiutor and here are some profiles for you that I found best!
Max Performance profile: Use zzmoove governor, max CPU speed to 1900 MHz, and at advanced governor settings set disable_hotplugging to 1.
Exynos hotplugging has rather negative effect on battery life as I found from my tests, you should never use it. If you are reading this and on Stock/Aurora ROM: disable hotplugging. It makes your battery life worse! Here is the test on Snapdragon 801, on Exynos hotpluging would yield even worse results because CPU with less core active will spend more time on unefficient A15 cores.
Zzmoove is the smoothest and fastest governor I found that still uses all available frequencies wisely.
That's the profile one should use for heavy games (and also set max GPU speed to 720 MHz in Synapse if you need it).
Performance profile: Use Interactive governor and max CPU speed 1900 MHz.
Interactive governor proactively ramps CPU to high (but not highest freq) to ensure great smoothness and still yield not-that-bad battery life (I had usually 4 hours SoT with 2G). For better fine-tuning you can go to advanced governor settings and set hispeed_freq to something in the middle, 800 MHz for example (but not lower than 800). hispeed_freq setting is the intermediate cpu speed which governor uses when there's initial load on cpu.
Balanced profile: Change governor to Ondemand, max CPU speed is still 1900 MHz.
You shouldn't worry, with touchboost disabled it would rarely ramp up to max speed, most often sitting on energy-efficient A7 cores and sometimes ramping to 1200 of A15, going even higher only when needed - still gives you whole power of your device without restrictions. DJMax81 did great job tuning this governor to our needs. You still can set max CPU lower (to 1400 Mhz) if you wish to conserve battery more on this profile.
Power saving profile: Go to Synapse and enable a slight touchboost: on QoS tab set CPU freq touchboost level 1 to 800 MHz (only the first slider). Then in Kernel Adiutor change CPU governor to Interactive. Set Max CPU speed to 1400. Go to advanced governor settings and set hispeed_freq to 400 MHz.
These settings are doing two things:
1. When not in use (e.g. you are not touching your phone), your device will use ONLY energy-efficient A7 cluster. So max 1300 MHz (it shows 650 MHz in Kernel Adiutor because A7 cluster is showing it's real freq divided by 2) with four cores - a performance level of middle-ground MTK device. Most often the phone will use 800 MHz freq of A7 (that's 400 MHz setting of hispeed_freq - a division by 2, remember)
2. When you are using device (actively tapping), touchboost will switch your device to A15 cores (starting from 800 MHz - at this freq they consume roughly same amount of energy as 1300 MHz'd A7) and if needed, interactive governor will ramp the freq even some more - up to 1400 MHz. When there will be no load, freq will drop to the minimum and system will switch to A7 cluster until next time you use it.
Extreme Power Saving profile: Disable touchboost, CPU governor is Interactive. At advanced governor settings set hispeed_freq to 400 MHz.
This makes your phone use ONLY energy-efficient A7 cluster no matter what circumstances. No matter what max CPU freq is set, interactive governor can't switch from A7 cluster to A15 (maybe that's a bug, but we'll use it). You can set max CPU speed to 650 MHz for sure, didn't make a difference for me.
Yes, it may lag. Yes, games are not playable. But we don't paint your screen black and white at least. Movies are fine, texting is fine, browsing too, 1300 MHz of A7 are still quite good - it's like low-end phone but with 3 GB RAM and AMOLED. Combine it with lollipop powersaving mode and GPU powersave bias (set in Synapse, always clocks GPU at 100 MHz). And your phone will go on and on and on...

Kernel Adiutor doesn't make profiles to share. You have to manually set parameters and then save profile for your device. That's only the guide of parameters to use for your needs.
Thanks for sharing.
I'm using TOS (a Chinese rom) now, and I got excellent battery life. The phone is still smooth.
If you're strict with battery life, TOS is really worth trying.

is that rom based on cm or touch wiz? probably cm coz of u mentioned gapps. But spen is working is doubting me that is touchwiz. Also how big is that rom? and is it prerooted?
that battery pics that u showed r awesome!
is it stable to use in everyday?
any lags? and free ram available?
tnx ! cheers!

Based on Touch Wiz. In China google is blocked so there's no gapps.
The rom is already prerooted, you just need to open it in Manage(an app)-Permissons-Root access.
It's 905MB.
Now i'm using it everyday, it's quite stable and smooth. And games (e.g. Hearthstone) are playable.
I don't know how to install Xposed, it errors every time I want to flash it.
As for free ram, I don't know how to check it in this rom.
i want to know that if this kernel works on flyme rom

Sir i have been already using ondemand governor but problem priciest i reflashed the rom and usesed with stock karnel for 2 days phone didn't freeze with stok karnel but as i flashed the karnel and set the given values it started freezing again... I want to use the karnel because everything is better than the stock one heating issue is major one with the rom but can be solved by the karnel but how to get rid of freezing problem.

Try to increase voltage slightly, +25 mV should be fine. Kernel Adiutor - CPU Voltage - Global at right top. It will not make any effect to battery life. If I remember correctly, Suemax kernel is a bit undervolted by default and if on most phones it's fine, on some it can make issues.

You can install it from Play Store, if you don't have one. On my ROM it was just built-in. Synapse should be built-in in kernel, you can update it from Play Store as usual.

Hmm, can you tell some more about this? I don't even have a clue, how the voltage can be increased automatically and phone start to lagging from more voltage? Usually, it's the contrary: more voltage = more stability for overclock etc.

Sir i set the cpu voltage by +25. Phone didn't freeze but after a day it freezed again when i checked the cpu voltage after restarting the phone it was the default values i set it by +25 again. After 7-8 hours some apps like Es file Explorer, Whats app, uc browser stopped working (saying like whats app is not responding) i was unable to move some content from phone to sd card. Other functions like settings, dialer etc. Was working. Phone didn't connect to pc. Neither restarted nor power off (restarting and shutting down.) after restarting the cpu voltage was more then the default values. See screenshots sir

I have the Pure-Z kernel, which has the option for the powersave CPU governor (which basically locks the CPU at the lowest clock rate except when touching the screen due to input boost).
I used Tasker to automatically set the big cores to powersave whenever battery saver is enabled in the hopes that throttling the big cores would save more power.
The question is: Does it actually save power? Or does it waste energy due to EAS not realizing that the CPU is throttled and still trying to send threads to that core set?
The LITTLE cores are still at their default sched governor.

Kernel Adiutor Setting for Gaming and Battery Life

Hi guys.
Anyone here know how to improve gaming performance without making the device getting hot?
Cause everytime I'm playing pubg mobile my phone getting hotter.
Kindly Let me know your kernel adiutor setting. Maybe it can fix my thermal problem.
Thankyou ?
Maybe now you've already sell your mi5s. But as my daily driver, my mi5s should set CPU governor to OnDemand and GPU to simple_ondemand. And of course you have to disable TouchBoost for all cores.
It will help your phone not necessarily scale up freq, especially when using chatting app.
Default CPU governor (Interactive) tends to scale up too high, which is not too important to me. Default GPU governor (msm_adreno_tz) works at 214 MHz when idle, but simple_on_demand works at 133 MHz and scale up necesarily.

Double Your Battery Life With any Kernel Manager [Best Settings !]

Increase/Improve Battery life of any phone Kernel manager best settings best power settings and can double the battery life of Samsung note 3 and other phones too
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage or soft/hard brick that may happen to your device...please make sure you follow the instructions below !
Instructions
Download Smartpack-kernel manager from the Playstore or You can Use any of the kernel manager of your choice (i.e Smartpack-kernel manager, Franco kernel, Elementalx kernel manger) open the app grant root permission and follow the Steps below!
Steps
1) CPU Governor Settings: Set CPU governor to conservative and Multicore Power Saving set to Aggressive make sure you set Apply on boot
2) This is optional the Low Memory Killer : Foreground Applications set to 16MB, Visible Applications set to 32MB, Secondary Server set to 64MB, Hidden Applications set to 128MB, Content Providers set to 144MB ,Empty Applications set to 180MB make sure you set Apply on boot.
3) Reboot and Enjoy!:good:
Extras
1) Underclock CPU: Lowering the CPU clocks will greatly increase your screen on time SOT at the expense of performance. Most of your device operations aren't really CPU intensive so lowering it at least 25%, 50% and 75% is enough to greatly reduce power consumption.
For instance
Underclock CPU of Samsung Note 3 for 25% power reduction set to 1728MHz Maximum CPU frequency set on boot
Underclock CPU of Samsung Note 3 for 50% power reduction set to 1190MHz Maximum CPU frequency set on boot
Underclock CPU of Samsung Note 3 for 75% power reduction set to 652MHz Maximum CPU frequency set on boot
2) Underclock GPU of Samsung Note 3 use the powersave governor for power reduction set on boot
FAQ
Q: Will these work without Root?
A: NO. you can use magisk or superSu to root your device
Q: Does this work for xyz kernel?
A: Works on xyz kernel just follow the Instructions and Steps
Q: What are the advantages of this?
A: Better battery life.
Thanks

Which kernel manager are you using? For Elementalx kernel manager it shows as mc_power_saving

Well im using smartpack kernel manager from Google play store
Nvm i found it ?
Followed these instructions; I've lost 2% while typing this, with a new battery, under LineageOS 16.0
I guess it's a ROM bug, unless proven otherwise.
Does anybody know if is there any way to get this without root-app, by mean of a one-time TWRP flashable zip?
Thank you.

I have a 4G Ram device, can you tell me the settings? I'm using Franco Kernel Manager.

Cpu boost acting unatural

My cluster 1 is boosting to Max and lowest frequency is 1555mhz. Now it used to boost to 1036mhz and I can't find a way to revert this. I've reinstalled OOS to no avail even going back to stock boot.img. I'm rooted with magisk and have tried custom kernels in the past (Smurf). Both my a/b are on same OOS with stock boot.img and magism
This perfectly normal if you ask me. When the display is touched the minimum frequency for only CPU0 becomes 1555 MHz for 700 ms. Actually the software you're reading the frequency from makes other CPUs from the same cluster to appear boosted to the same frequency but actually it is just CPU0, so relax, there's nothing to worry about.
FK kernel manager applies the input boost to the whole cluster not individual cores.
EXKM applies input boost to individual cores with different frequencies of your choice. I agree that 1036 is more power efficient without too much drop in user experience. You can change that in EXKM for finer control.
Reading the CPU real time CPU frequency from these apps doesn't represent anything REAL at all. CPU ramping happens at a scale of few Nanoseconds, my friend. Software can't capture that so it depends on sampling which means everyone has its own method.
