[Q] Measuring CPU Temp

How do I check the CPU Temp on the tf? I tried d/l a few apps but none of them seem to work or compatible. Any suggestion?

Get a app fron Antutu called CPU MASTER. This is an app that allows for overclocking and such.....if you do not have an overclocking kernel....DO NOT USE IT!!!
However it comes with a nice little widget that will display your temp, battery life and other stuff. You can use that.
If you do decide to use an overclocking kernel just go to this thread.

Why shouldn't you use it with a stock kernel?
The kernel is what controls the possible speeds, not the app. The app is just an interface to allow the user to set what the kernel has already provisioned.

I know that but there is always a possibility that if a setting was activated higher than his stock kernel allows it COULD cause trouble.
It is a "Just in case" scenario.

You don't understand what I am saying.
The kernel controls things like clock speed, voltage, yadda yadda, etc. This app just interfaces with these kernel settings to allow the user to select them.
Try it for yourself. You will see that it only lets you select up to 1Ghz with the stock kernel. It's actually kind of nice for people with the stock kernel because it allows you to _underclock_ your device if you want.

Ok, sorry. I don't mean to be rude but you're wrong and telling someone wrong information.
Try it for yourself and you'll see that you can't change anything the kernel doesn't allow.
Plenty of people use the OC apps like this one (or SetCPU) to underclock their device or add speed profiles for certain situations.

it's the battery temp, not cpu. i couldn't find any app or widget to see my cpu temp.

cat /sys/devices/platform/tegra-i2c.3/i2c-4/4-004c/ext_temperature
I wrote a script to display many other things (batt temp and current CPU mv) ... but that is the CPU temp. There is also
cat /sys/devices/platform/tegra-i2c.3/i2c-4/4-004c/temperature
But the thermal throttling policies refer to ext - and both values are very close to each other. Ext also happens to have more precision (.25 degC as opposed to rounding up or down to the nearest degree). So I look at ext.

echo -e "\033[0m Your CPU/System temp is: " "\033[1m `cat /sys/devices/platform/tegra-i2c.3/i2c-4/4-004c/ext_temperature`"
Writing this in a 'script', making it executable, and calling it whatever will make it so you do not have to type the long path above.
Thus, in term emulator - it would look like this.
# whatever
Your CPU/System temp is: 40.0
Wow. Fancy.

[MOD] IncrediControl - Easy GUI Voltage Control

Please read this post through thoroughly before downloading.
This app allows you to control your CPU voltages with an easy to use interface. You can increase or decrease voltages (undervolt or overvolt) for all frequencies or fine tune voltages for each individual frequency.
! HTC DEVICES, currently only single core devices are supported !
! ROOT is Required !
! Kernel that supports HAVS or SVS voltage adjustment REQUIRED !
Get it over at http://www.incredikernel.com
IncrediControl is now also available in the market:
IncrediControl
IncrediControl - Ad Free
Additionally, all donators are eligible to receive the Ad Free version. It doesn't matter how much or how little you donate or have donated. If you don't want to purchase the app from the market, you may donate using the button on this page. Please register on the site first and include your username in the comments box.
All previous donators, please register on the site if you have not done so and contact me with your username!
NOTE: The settings in the general tab are only functional in kernels that have implemented the simple sysfs interfaces for usb fast charging and audio boost. The tab will not show up if your kernel does not have these features. If you would like your kernel dev to implement the interfaces, please direct them to these two commits:
https://github.com/Chad0989/android_kernel_common/commit/a7c21fa0391c225900f93960362535179c0cecc9
https://github.com/Chad0989/android_kernel_common/commit/41dc138bae23dc7582de72a4d9895aaa8e1f8b2d
NOTE2: It is a requirement of the voltage adjustment that the kernel you are using has either the HAVS or SVS sysfs interface implemented. If it does not, it will not work.
NOTE3: Before using, please delete any boot scripts you may have in /etc/init.d that toggle any of the settings this app controls.
Get it at http://www.incredikernel.com
Restore script - use this if you went too low and find yourself in a boot loop. Flash through recovery:
http://www.incredikernel.com/?p=229

maybe is good thing to post which kernel for desire s can use this.many users have no idea what kernel supports HAVS or SVS voltage adjustment..its just few of them actualy so u can maybe check and let us know.

Tiamat 1.0.4 does. I don't see any other recent ones listed on the forum here. If you give me a link to other kernels I'll check for you. No stock kernel does (this includes the default cm7 kernel).

check virtuous rom
kernel is unity v2 ...i think.

It appears that that kernel does not support the interface. If you're willing to test for me, I can pull the source for that kernel, implement the interface and submit a patch to the developer for inclusion. Just let me know if you would be willing to test for me.
EDIT: I got bored, so here:
http://chad0989.dyndns.org/mirror/unitykernel_sysfs.zip
Let me know if it works, make sure you have another kernel downloaded that you can flash in the event that this one doesn't boot.

tried the kernel. works a treat. thanks!

lowered all the voltages twice. tried three times and it crashed. stable on lowering twice. haven't experimented with each of them individually though

It takes a lot of trial and error to get the best voltage table. It would be great if when you get a pretty good one, you could post it here so that others may use it as a starting point.

mind making the tiamat kernal works too?

IncrediControl v1.3
Major changes include:
Ad Free has now been turned into a key that removes the ads from the free version. This allows donors who have downloaded the ad free version from the site to update through the market.
HAVS voltage checking. Minimum voltages can no longer be set higher than maximum voltages.
Boot voltages are now stored in the application’s data directory. Boot settings will now persist if you update your ROM or restore the application and data from a backup.

si, is this a replacement for SetCPU? What other features does it have?

It's not a replacement for set cpu at the moment. But in the future I'm adding CPU speed and governor control. As well as the ability to fine tune each governor.

Can someone post a screenshot of their HTC Incredible voltage table?
Also, does this app obsolete the USB fast charge boot script? (http://www.incredikernel.com/wp-con...-monitor/download.php?id=enablefastcharge.zip) i.e. Should I delete that script after installing this app and enabling the USB check box in the general tab?

2 more: What does audio boost do? Why are the "enable on boot" checkboxes reset to unchecked each time the app is opened?

Might be better off posting in the incredible thread next time, so we can keep this one desire discussion. But yes, you no longer need that script and are safe to delete it.
Audio boost is louder in call volume.
The check boxes uncheck themselves as a fail safe for users. I know a lot of users will leave it checked and then adjust voltages too low and end up in boot loops. This way if someone is playing with voltages, they aren't set on boot unless they explicitly click the set on boot box and click apply. If you have previously set on boot voltages, those will remain until you check the box again and click apply, then the previously set on boot voltages will be overwritten with the new ones. In the general tab, the box unchecks itself also just to be consistent with the behavior in the voltage adjustment tab.

Thx. (Apologies for wrong forum - tapatalk ui hides a lot of info)

IncrediControl v1.4:
This is mostly a bug fix release but I have also added:
Automatic detection of the minimum and maximum voltages supported by your kernel
Unless any more bugs arise, the next release will have some new goodies to play with...
http://www.incredikernel.com or from the market.

very interesting thing.
Does some made any test how much it affect battery life, is it worth of playing ?

Ok so i installed this but i can only see the SVS tab. No general tab. Why is that?
Oh nvm finally understood the first post.

What is PnPMgnr?

I saw that there is a PnPMgnr in the Venom Tweaks, how does it work? Is it implemented in every custom rom?

Im not too sure what it stands for but all i know that if you turn it off you can customise the Cpu clock speed and with it turned on you cant.

It's a built-in CPU manager, something like OC daemon.

ivicask said:
6.What is PnPMgr daemon?
You can change maximum CPU and GPU frequency using aroma installer options.New rules and improvements are added from HTC One profile, like maximum CPU screen-off frequency 1026 MHz, optimal CPU frequency settings for updated ondemand governor and boot-time performance lock which will decrease booting time. We recommend setting CPU/GPU speeds via aroma and not change them later via 3d party apps, u can still change speeds via Venom tweaks for benchmarks and similar but than you wont benefit from PnPMgr which has many rules and policies defined, for example when you launch navigation then maximum CPU frequency is limited to 900 MHz, when you are using camera in HDR or Panorama mode, both cores are enabled, in launcher when you changing screens both cores also are always enabled.​

[Q] How to set cpu frequency in CM12 for Oneplus One

Hello , I have a question, I Recently Flashed CM12 Oficial Rom for OnePlus one And i Unlocked Developer Options but when i go to Performance i cannot set cpu frequency like in CM11 , All i have in Performance Tab is Enable per-app profiles. What can i do? Do this rom have Option to set cpu frequency or i have to use a app for that? if i have to use an app What app do you guys recommand to set cpu frequency? No-Frills Cpu seems a little bit outdated , It hasn't been updated since 2013 and it dont works pretty well on Opo , i used it on Oxygen OS. Thanks.

I would prefer using the system profiles and that was the original question. However I am using SetCPU and my phone is properly rooted but something is overriding the frequencies set by in SetCPU... Clueless.

What if battery profile for hotplug gov in gov tuner is set like this
Down differential 5
Up threshold 95
I follow the tutorial for my device from here & it perhaps suitable for most device
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/ref-kernel-governors-modules-o-t1369817
I have tried it, device is cooler & could save more battery especially with small number on down differential. With smaller number cpu freq will go down faster ?

Add option to exclude apps from clearing cache is my suggestions.

Developers that make the game store the cache in cache partition, don't know how to make proper OBB or store cache in /sdcard0/Android/data

That's a pretty good suggestion, hope he'll implement it

I have more suggestions.
Auto trim, with options to change Trim Time, Trim Frequency, and Trim Notification. I have older low-end tablets that require trimming often because they slow down after 1-2 days deep sleep. The kernel in my tablets are not well optimized.
Disable apps startup. It is very useful because some apps auto start and running in background and draining battery and transmit some data. I don't use Facebook and other heavy battery drain apps but it is annoying that some browsers auto start and running in background. Right now i'm using a cleaner app that have option to disable apps from startup

i am quite a noob but im am sure that MOST rom already include this feature. am i wrong?
in miui like other roms...there are options to disable specific apps from starting themselves...... i think that L speed app should never become an oversized all in 1 app........ there are other apps for battery life that works differently.
however i still have to understand well how precisely this app works.... could someone say me what are the PRECISE POINTS where Lspeed make a tweak?
i think:
1) build.prop
2)scripts at startup that modify/optimize the governors
3) ??
4)????
