Setcpu question - EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct forum; or if someone could just answer my question but here goes. Earlier today I was reading about sbc kernels and I was wondering if I were to flash a aosp sbc kernel would I still be able to use setcpu? I'm using cm6.1.2

I wasn't aware the evo shift had a sbc kernel..

Don't believe it does... publicly anyway.
If you flash a kernel from another vendor then it'll just loop, but if you flash a kernel that's proven to work for Speedy, then yes SetCPU will work

If you move up to CM7, you should not use SetCPU. CM7 has CPU options built-in by going to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Performance > CPU Settings.

I don't think ANYone would rather run 2.2 than 2.3... but then again... here I am sitting on MikShift, nothing AOSP or 2.3 about it!
Sent from my MikShift.

Yeah... now that I have a phone that can handle sense without slowing to a crawl, I actually enjoy it. It is full of eye candy. There isn't a whole lot of significant changes in 2.3 as compared to 2.2 like there was from 2.1 to 2.2, either, so I haven't stuck with cyanogen yet this time... I feel it coming though. That need for speed is calling...

Oppz my bad I meant evo 4g not the shift. So as of right now I'm fine using setcpu but once I flash cm7 I should then uninstall it. I'm waiting until there is a stable release of cm7 until I flash but, I am also considering the possibility now because bluetooth isn't working right now and I wanna get a feel for cm7 =D

So you have the Evo? Not the Shift? The Evo forum might be a better place to ask if that's the case, you're in the Shift forum. If you are talking about the Shift then try out CM7. It is stable, just has a few known bugs.

Oh wow I didn't even realize that I had posted this in the shift forum. I guess I didn't read it correctly but I'm glad to know I have some feedback if I need it. But even if this is the shift forum wouldn't the answer be the same for the regular evo 4g?

I get better battery life out of the LorDmod UE kernel but the Tiamat kernel is much more responsive so that leads me to believe it's related to the CPU governor. I'm using the PUV script/PUV voltages with both and while LorDmod's kernel gets better battery life, I'm still over 60% with Tiamat at the end of the day.
I'm still torn between the two and think I'll use Tiamat for a few more days to get a better feel for it; it's definitely left a good first impression.
Glad to see you developing for the inspire. Have been using your latest kernel with cm7 on my evo. Now trying this one out on the girlfriends inspire. And also is it possible to get SBC support with this kernel in the future?

SBC and the concept behind in is particular to the way the evo/inc battery driver works. Other devices use a different driver so it does not port. Really, you're better off for having a driver that doesn't 'need' it.

Lord Clockan incorporated SBC support in to his UE kernel for a while and basically found that it doesn't work on the Desire HD/Inspire. He's using a different "overcharge" feature now but I'll be damned if I can remember the name off the top of my head.
With MIUI and perfect match!!!
I installed in my inspire with 1.7.22 and the battery drain stop, i did remove setcpu too. Happy and pleased!!! Keep the good work!!!
Using Tiamat 1.0.3 with CM7 nightly #134, runs like butter at 1113mhz, battery life is better as well. Great work!

My Inspire would freeze on anything over 1305mhz, I found 1113mhz to be the most smooth and stable for me. Very well could be an issue with your ROM, the OP or one of the devs on the MIUI site may have a more insight.

Well time for an update. I found out that the camera does not work with gingerbeast. I tried to reflash to make sure it was the kern and it was.
Figured I'd chime in after testing with 1.04 for a while. Battery life is pretty much the same for me with Tiamat and LordMoDUE, just about everything else is very close as well. I give the clear edge in overall snappiness to Tiamat, with even better performance after screen unlock - pretty much no noticeable delay with smartass governor. I'll definitely recommend this kernel to anyone reading.

All ROMS and Kernel work differently on every phone ... some people have problems running Trinity and some people have problems running Ma1trix(I hope i spelt it correctly) anyways i don't mean to offend any of the devs but it depends on phone to phone
My Nexus runs smoothly with Nscollab .41 with TrinityEUV kernel (0.88 GHz) =]
Also Bugless Pete's GPA17 with the stock kernel which is btw Pete's own =]
and finally MIUI with TrinityUV android flavored kernel (1.0 Ghz) =]
to find out which one works best on your device you have to install and check them yourself
Hope i helped
There are no "problems" with Matr1x.
You just need to tweak the voltages and find something that works for you....
As a fresh NS user, I wanted something similar to stock + added notification bar toggle + kernel with BLN & Voodoo sound. Found this combo with TSM Pool party 1.3 ROM, which is based on Pete's work and his kernel. Works excellent:]
CM7 RC1 + T144 or TEUV if I feel like saving battery

Very true, I initially thought my phone doesnt work with matrix, Then i figured how to undervolt my phone and change profiles in set CPU, Now phone works great with matrix.
Really like TEUV though, but found it lagging a bit in high graphics games,.

try removing any apps you don't need/use
I'd also recommend getting S-OFF/ROOT and installing a custom ROM.
There is a guide on how to do all of this in the Development section
Wasnt so intetested in rooting.
I have reset phone, and still the same? Its only been like it since last update, i guess i will have to suffer it for now?

Unofficial CM9 ROM questions

According to the OP, the torch is supposed to be a working feature. However, I have not been able to get mine to work at all. Was just curious if this was an oversight or something I should correct on my device?
Additionally, I would like to know what a safe and stable OC speed would be for my Inspire 4G.... I'm a bit of a speed-freak but do not want to jeopardise anything.

Are you sure your camera LED's are in good working condition? Speed wise, you can overclock it to almost anything you want. If it is overclocked too much, your phone will just freeze and you might have to format everything to ROM default to get out of it. I think you can go up to 1.2 if I remember correct. I always underclock my ROM so that it saves on battery.
EDIT: I found out that it is an issue with the ROM, follow this thread in DHD, you might need a different kernel.

Could have just been the source at the time. I deleted it and haven't looked for it since. I guess I could search for it and redownload it.
I did end up starting over on a GB kernel though, didn't mess with the .config much this time around and gonna do it one slow compile at a time with one change to see when things go south
*edit*
Ok so from the looks of the source roman had changed 2 files when overclocking and undervolting and it was for global cpu voltages (faux code). After using the code changed in arch/arm/mach-msm/kconfig the phone bootlooped at the splash screen, but the change to arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock-8x60.c (faux code for 1.5Ghz oc/uv?) it boots just fine,but still at full speed no matter if setcpu is ticked to set at boot or not, and my guess is that's just is what it is, )90% of kernels boot at the speed on this device. Anyways that's what I did today trying to start as simple as using code that already works. Now back to the work week

Just from my observations, it seems there is something about a Sense ROM that causes the kernel to always boot at max speed of the kernel regardless of any settings in SetCPU or other cpu-clocking app. Only after the device is booted can you manually run SetCPU and then the desired speeds/options will take effect. I've watched it working, as soon as I boot up, I open SetCPU and just watch it... it starts out at 1.7GHz (the max on your kernel). SetCPU will then adjust it down to my desired 1.5GHz. As the phone goes through all its bootup steps (syncing, etc.), suddenly the speed will revert to 1.7GHz again. I can then reset it to 1.5 and it will remain there from then on. So, whatever it is that Sense is doing messes with the cpu clock. Non-sense ROMs don't exhibit this behavior, at least not that I've seen.

I'll be diving back into kernels soon.
My laptop is fried, but it'll run in ten/fifteen minute increments sitting on a handful of ice packs fresh from the freezer.
Once I finish migrating everything off of it to usb hdd devices I can start going through what I got.
Meantime, I'll browse through what I got moved onto my phones sdcard and throw some tips out. Been a while, but a quick review and I can throw down what you need to change for stable cpu table edits.
Don't want to steer ya wrong off the top of my head when it's been months since I've looked at it.
Definitely we need to get some stuff thrown around if a lot of old works were lost.
