How many .35 kernels are available? I'm only aware of Umaro's and the stock CM kernel. I'm trying to achieve better battery life, so what kernel are you guys using?
So far, using Umaro's, I'm getting regular battery life, nothing special. Haven't tried the stock CM kernel.
Are they any other undervolted kernels available?

There aren't any others so far. Umaro's kernel is really good for battery life, however it's not up to date with the latest kanged nightly from yesterday.
Ahh, I see. Thanks for the info.
What cpu settings are you running?

Right now I'm using a kanged nightly with the "stock" cpu settings of 245MHz min and 1024MHz max, but with the interactive governor. With Umaro's kernel I had at 245 min, 1017 max and the Smartass governor. The smartass is pretty good on battery.
u made all the right moves all i would do is dim screen and keep runnimg apps low.
pimped out g2
btw pyromod 2.0 345 ghz min 1405ghz max on smartass. i fully charge bout 1 a day
pimped out g2
Pershoot released his kernel the other day pretty nice and smooth

Alright I'm sleepy so this will be in rambling form but...
I've tried Umaro's and I'm not sure if it was the undervolting (which I haven't looked into tweaking) but my phone kept stuttering no matter which governor I used. I was using Htcclay's Super CM7 1.8 with cpu set to 245/1113
I also used the stock kernel that's been on CM7 with no problems and average to good battery life (10-15 hours of active use: texting, browsing, few calls, and playing the occasional game)
Most recently I've used Pershoots which I had heard worked great. I myself love it. Almost same battery life as stock kernel but everything felt just a little bit smoother performance wise.
Here's a link to Pershoot's thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847672
The stock cm kernel in my opinion is finally good enough that it doesn't need changed. I have always flashed pershoots and occassionally others, but it truly does not need supplemented IMHO.

You're running that on Vision? I can't seem to find it for our device.
Stock CM7 kernel here. I run 245/806 Interactive with automatic brightness. I've found that when wifi is on, keeping the cell radio @ 2G only works wonders. Wifi is set to sleep on screen off, but not when plugged in. 1 day 7 hours on this charge so far with 23% left. I would consider my use light to moderate.

I'm wondering where can I download the Umaro's kernel. I check out his github (https://github.com/umaro/htc-kernel-msm7x30) only to find out that the source is available.
Very general question. I'm on 2.3.4 4.5.91. unlocked rooted. cam Does anyone use setcpu or JD on this release. It seems as if settings has some battery controls in it. Just curious. Thanks

If you are overclocking, SETCPU allows you to control clock speeds with profiles and set lower CPU operating voltages to save battery.
See here for some undervolting info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183059
I have not found any software like JD that works on gb.
forgive the noob question, but what is JD?
i use SetCPU, bought it off the market (gotta support our devs, right?) and i'm LOVING it. it does everything i need for managing my CPU, i have custom profiles setup for all sorts of situations, and undervolting gives me amazing battery life. when i'm running Ninja SF, i can use my phone for 25-30 hours without charging (moderate use, no hardcore gaming or music)
but on CM7, i can unfortunately only average about 20-25 hours of battery life with the same use.
JD = Juice Defender
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Hmmm ok. I'm on stock not over clocked. Setup may not do much for me. Juice Defender could control the radios. But settings seem to have some battery options for extending battery life.
I didn't know if setup since I am rooted would at least help with scaling and throttling down processor speed when battery reached certain levels. I'm sure these would help on a custom Rom.

I've read many threads where people say they have their G2 up around 1.5 and I'm just wondering what is considered a safe OC speed?
Some of the threads say there isn't much noticeable difference after 1.2, can any of you confirm this?
I'm on meXdroid right now and I've been keeping it at 1.2 but it gives me the option of going up to 1.516, so I'm wondering if there's any damage that might be done if I go with the max.

I'm running CM7.1 at a max of 1.4 without any problems. Not sure there is such a thing as completely "safe" when overclocking, but I also read about many who are at 1.5 or higher. I did notice a slight improvement going from 1.2 to 1.4 on my phone, but nothing substantial.
its safe to oc at 1.5 the thing is you wont be gaining a lot of performance but you will be draining more juice
After 1.2 the only thing you get is more battery consuccion.
The safe way is keeping the cpu ondemand or conservative between 245 - 1200.
If you want safe battery you can use setcpu and make 2 profiles one in screen off (powersave 245-368) screen on (ondemand 245-1200).
Note: for miui screen off profile have to be (245-768) because (245-368) cause delay in incoming calls.
And remember always the scale depends what kernel you use.
I using now pershoot 2.6.35.14
Is good with battery life so i recommended to you.
I was using ILWT kernel v1.5.1, is more better on battery life but i notice some problems went i use maps.
I hope that help you

Ive also looked into this quite a bit and most people say around 1200mhz is the sweet spot for battery and speed.
also overclocking depends on kernel
I've ran mine at 1.42 using Unity sense as a daily driver.

The OP is using meXdroidmod which has "tweaKr" script so no need for set CPU and he also has option to adjust voltages and many other tweaks. MeXdroidmod is awesome!
To the OP, just keep it at 1.2 . Like others have mentioned...just wasting juice if any higher.
HTC Vision(G2), meXdroidmod Ghost Chili AIO ROM/ICS CM7 theme.
I have mine at 1.6Ghz set on performance screen on, 368-768 ondemand screen off. I'm a medium/light user and will have around 20-30% left when i plug it in at night.
The amount you can overclock while still maintaining decent battery life really depends on if you're a light/medium/heavy user - because the charge is only being rapidly drained while the screen is on (if you have a sensible screen off profile set up). Light users can afford to run at high speeds on performance govenors, heavy users should run at lower speeds with conservative governors.
As for how safe overclocking is i'm not completely sure what the limits are, but there are people who run their G2's at 2Ghz and get no problems... the biggest danger is probably heat damage to the phone, but the battery will fail before you get to temperatures that will damage the phone so i wouldn't worry about that. The other concern is reducing the life of the cpu, however the longest you will have a phone is around 2 years, and an overclocked cpu will still last far longer than this.
Hope I helped answer your question, I am running Miui btw.
I have a 2.7ghz kernel on cyanogen 7.1 and I call it the Turbo charged g2

The maximum speed our G2 can go is 2.03 but if you want battery and spped i recommend setting it up in between 0.9 and 1.3
Hope it helps!
the 7x30 processors are designed to run up to 1.5 so basically it's not oc. and the Desire z/G2 come with underclocked kernels on stock
Currenty oc my dz to 1.5ghz. Can oc to 1.9ghz without any problem.

That's incorrect from what I've read the CPU the g2 has is a 800 stock its not underclocked or nothing that's how it came From HTC but its a 2nd Gen snapdragon and their for very recealient and efficient and their for can be overclocked .. and from what I have seen and read this CPU has been overclocked more then any other CPU on a phone ... its bad ass!

I'm currently running turl1's v8 with the kernel that comes with it. I've read about people having this issue with faux'd kernel and that they fixed it by using the one is turl's build. I've attached a pic of the Time in State screen from SetCPU.

I am using jokersax 0.3.1. Same issue.
do you guys have profiles set?
Only based on temperature. Do you?
I have profiles set when the screen turns off and such.
I still have idle problems, but its masked a little if you underclock to 912. and with hardware acceleration you can hardly notice it.
I I did have the idling problem with previous builds so I switched to turls1's. When the new 0.3.1 came out I switched back. I also changed from setcpu to antutu cpu master pro, and now it idles correctly.
I'm using turl1's V8 Kang with faux123 025 beta kernel (1.0Ghz), and here is my CPU freq for something like a week.
I use a profile for screen off- 216-608.
Now mine looks a lot better. But I didn't change anything..??
I'm not using a profile on mine either. I think I'm going to try faux's kernel and see if it improves any. I think I would get fairly great battery life if I could resolve this issue. I got down to only 84% after moderate screen time and video and music playback today with over 8 hours off of the charger. Most time was spent in 312Mhz with 608Mhz being the next highest and 216Mhz as the third.

My cpu seems to be working great on turl's v8 with the default kernel. I was getting pretty poor battery life on joker's ROM, but on Turls v8 I'm getting the best I've ever had; stock or not.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Running Jocker's latest with the latest Faux 1.3GHz kernel.
Idles mostly at 456MHz.
Something wrong there.
After flashing faux's 1Ghz kernel and setting a profile for screen off @216Mhz it has greatly improved. Although it seems any time the screen is on it never hits 216. My battery life didn't seem to get any better either which I find odd.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
another vote for turl fixing batt life.
No idea why some people are so good on faux's but a large proportion have these massive problems.
I switched to turls v8 with the kernel it comes with and now my battery life and cpu usages are great!
told ya, mine looks around the same
tried to feed it back in jokersax forum, not sure if he's picked up on it or not, theres plenty of people saying 'great batt life' but theres enough of us out there who aren't getting that (and whom get decent results with turl). Maybe there are subtle hw differences in certain batches or revisions of the SoC or something like that.

I've never seen my atrix idle like that.
are you sure? Mine idled similar to that in CM7, now CM9 turl build.
In jokersax build (stock kernel) 0.2 I never got below 456Mhz consequently heat and battery died in ~10% an hour increments even if I didn't touch it
if anyone is still using the note 4 all you got to do is root your stock rom and under clock the processor to less then 1.9.. iv been using this since morning and my phone does not over heat or loose battery.. it was 100% in the morning and its 85% now. hope this helps you guys. well who ever owns the phone still that is lol

1.7 for me, undervolted to 850 mv for 1728 mhZ. No problems with stuttering, lags or random reboots. 3% battery drop for around 7 hours in deep sleep, all the time on LTE. GPU locked at max 384 mhZ too. Tweaked inteliactive governor, autosmp hotplug. Unfortunately, our 805 SOC is power hungry kekeke. But everything run so smooth.
