CPU stock setting reset - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All
Ive noticed that my N7 cpu setting keep resetting when it sleeps on Antutu CPU master ??
I know this is the Kernel issue but is there a way to resolve this as im running at 1.8 and its smooth and fast but keeps resetting.

its a rom issue. your rom is "broken" and is missing the powerhal fix. there is a flashable floating around the n7 forums for it. there are also a few cpu control apps that include the fix, including the trinity kernel toolbox app.
edit.. heres the flashable powerHal fix from motley here

[Q] Random Reboots in franco.kernel

Ok, so here's the story:
I was running oxygen+franco.kernel, and was suffering from loads of random reboots, as well as the oxygen signal dropping bug.
While I was looking for the source of the problem, I wiped the phone back to B138, and re-installed oxygen without the franco.kernel. Still had the signal loss, but the reboots stopped.
dzo fixed the network bug (thanks dude if you see this) and I thought it was safe to re-install the franco.kernel. But after I did the reboots returned!
So my question is, is anyone else suffering from this reboot problem with [04 OCT] franco.kernel? Or has anyone suffered from, then fixed it?
Thanks for any advice in advance!
P.S. Yes I could just not install the kernel, but I had some good performance and battery boosts from it, so would love to have it on and stable again!
I haven't oxygen anymore, but I've using it until latest cm7 update and always with frankco' s kernel(this include the 4 october version which I'm still using until now) and I never had reboot problems. Maybe your governor/io settings caused this.
I have
CPU: 400min 1000max, governor: SMARTASSV2, i/o scheduler: vr

i had the exact same problem with oxygen and 4oct franco. i traced the problem back to the kernel, uninstalled franco and no more reboots. now i'm using stock oxygen kernel. i was using franco with smartass2 governor 400 min 1200 max, now i'm using ondemand governor (i think) and same freqs. didn't notice any difference in battery life or performance to be honest, so i'm fine.
I had same rebooting issue with Franco´s kernel and Oxygen.
But if I had wlan on, no reboots. Didn't even have to be connected.
I only keeped wlan on and reboots were gone.
Bit strange... but now using Oxygen without Franco´s kernel.

That's interesting. I'm trying to use CM7 and Franco's kernel now, and just had a reboot, but I'll switch wifi on an see how it goes

Nor Quadrant neither Antutu does work on extreme versions of gl notecore

please guys i dont know is it normal or not so let me know that why does it always gets stuck on 3d tests while performing any benchmark using any of the overclocked versions gl notecore kernel. I really like that kernel but also do want some overclocking but whenever i try doing benchmark test using the extreme versions it gets stuck on the earth and moon rotation animation-testing screen and on antutu on the screen where battalion army animation is shown.
I have tried v2, v4, v5 v6 and till v8 extreme versions(overclocked) of gl notecore kernel. Tried and tested on rocket rom v7, kindroid v4.2 v4 3 and v5.1.1 also on latest and greatest clean note v4 but everytime it got stuck. It never happened to me on overclocked franco's kernel r5 nor did it ever happened on any cm9 or aokp roms while running anidroid kernel. So guys if you can help me out your help would be really appreciated
Thanks in advance.
I guess it's your device because I have used both benchmarks with gl notecore extreme and everything went all right.
I'm using v8 with criskelo's rom v10
i dont think so

Even i thought so at first but then why does other overclocking kernel work then and also once in the blue moon the overclocked gl notecore had worked suddenly but since then it has not. Please someone help me out.

For me it is, just use his rom. No tweaks that will conflict his kernel. Using now his rom and his beta 8.2 at full speed.
Not a single sod ore freez. Antutu 7300, quadrant 5300.
Please if you use a custom rom, delete all init.d. Those are his words. You can find it in system,etc,init.d

By his rom do you mean cleannote v4 as it is the current rom im running. Also i checked for that folder but it is already not present there. Also now i have noticed that on his v8.1ex version i get screen freezes while running quadrant which only way to get rid off is restart the phone. Im loving his kernel guys its extremely smooth but just help me out with this problem as i wanna flaunt its performance through technical data. Lol
Thanks for your support guys.

Well some phones do not like oc and uv. You should do a clean install and do not restore apps and system with tittanium backup.
First test your cleanote without your apps. i use nofrills for to set my cpu. Do not use set cpu because many users experiance problems with that.
Good luck
no results.

Hey mate i have already done as you said. I have not restored any app through titanium back up. Infact i do not have titanium even installed on my note on cleannote v4. There is no set cpu installed too. Btw i tried with no frill but still no luck.
One tiny little request if you can will you post the link of this thread on galvin's kernel thread so that might be able to help me as of right now im veey junior member so according to xda rules i cant.
Thanks for your time buddy.
Hi, as you requested, he did post your thread link over at the NOTECORE kernel thread. However, as I mentioned above, I m facing the same issue and have read the kernel developers answer on this as well. Acc to him, not every phone can support the EX version. Its due to the difference in voltages. My phone cannot handle the EX version as well. However, I m happy to stick with the Standard version. If you're looking for great Quadrant and Antutu scores, just change the governer to pegasusq using SetCPU or any similar app, uncheck Power saving option and then run the test couple of times. I always get around 4400 Quadrant and 7100 Antutu scores.
thanks guys

Thanks to all of you guys for your wonderful support and help throughout. oh so atleast now i know whats the reason for that thanks anyways lifehijack and yeah i hit the thanks button for all of you.
Also many thanks for posting this link on gl notecore kernel thread
So is there anyways we could play around with these voltages and make it work. May be some technical experts here might have the answer to that i hope.
Im using notecore 8.1 ex with classic rom v3 and they both run fine have got pretty good scores too.

All you need is the setCPU app (search in xda forums,you'll find it) and change the governer from ONDEMAND to pegasusq, that's it.

Yes bro i have done just the same as an alternative to ex version and it gives onsiderable performance and scores but will always have a craving for extreme version. Hope to get some technical help from xda experts to make ex version run on my note just fine.
As has already been mentioned not all phones are equal. your needs more core voltage than what my extreme kernel is configured for. if i increased it you would then complain about heat and battery life getting worse.
Stick with my standard version as that uses stock cpu voltages and frequencies. If you took the time to read the OP and even the last few pages of the thread you would have seen this mentioned.
You can use tegrak to adapt the frequency and the voltage. This way you can set the frequencies that suit best for your phone.

No bro im not like that complainbox guy. Anyways i dunno why and how or may be you read this post and improved it in your version 9 ex but now your ex v9 works perfectly fine on my note and yes buddy i have read your op around 4 to 5 times and everytime i install your newer version of kernel. And i wanna give you a big thank you for making us soo many wondeful kernels. Your are awesome mate.
I actually cant believe that such a wonderful and big developer came to my thread to help. Once again thanks alot and also a big thanks to androiadicted for posting this link on galvin's thread.

Franco kernel max cpu doesn't stick?

So I purchased the Franco Kernel Updater and am setting the max cpu frequency to 1000 Mhz (and setting it to save on boot) but it just won't stick, always reverting back to 1300 Mhz once stressed. Tried switching governor from interactive to ondemand, and deadline to noop but to no avail.
I've also tried Trickster mod but it's still not saving the max frequency either Strangely, setting minimum frequencies (other than 100 Mhz) seem to stick...anyone know why?
I'm running a N7 3G 4.2.1, with Franco kernel r38 and Paranoid 2.99 beta 9.5 rom
Grab the powerhal fix from here, that will sort your CPU issues

Thanks, I'll give it a shot
EDIT: After flashing, rebooted but did not seem to work. Still reverts to 1300 mhz. Tried rebooting a few more times, tried a different powerhal fix (by motley), updated busybox and superSU, reinstalled Franco Kernel Updater even. Any other options?
Just tried it here and restarted. Franco's app and tricksterMOD are both showing 1000 max. (Trickster showed the cpu cycled to 1200 for a sec when it opened but then it went back to 1000).
You said you tried reinstalling the apps but did you try reflashing the kernel? IDK.
ETA: in Franco's app it shows max CPU @ 1300 but when you click on it to set it 1000 is still selected.
I had that problem with changing GPU speed.
Try cleaning data of that app or reflashing kernel, it seems to be r38 bug
I tried what you guys suggested, clearing the data off the app, and also reflashing the kernel but it's still not sticking.
I rolled back to franco's kernel r37, to see if it was just an issue with the latest version but same story. I'm completely stumped
Could it be the Paranoid rom interfering with the kernel? Or is the kernel's latest version r38 not compatible with the Powerhal fix (since it was originally meant for lean kernel?)
The powerhal fix is not kernel based, rather it is os based so you shouldn't have any issues there with compatibility as such.
I have not used Franco kernel or the updater for a bit, so all I can suggest is setting the frequencies in trickster then going to settings and enabling 'set on boot' option to see if that works.

Yea I did try Trickster mod but it's the same. So I guess Ive thrown in the towel and will just have to stick to the full frequency range and undervolt across the board. Thanks anyway for the help guys.

serious problem with camera

hi
i've this problem with some kernels.. suddenly some graphical glitches appear in camera and also output picture
i thought it's because of undervolt.. but even overvolting didn't help.. what's the problem?
Like you said I think it's just certain kernel incompatibilities. I had the same problem with Google Maps on AOKP M2 with Ziddeys kernel.
but there are many kernels with problem to me.. and when i asked in their thread, no one had this issue..

Ok, I give it a try. To start it would be good to know what your current setup is. Please post Android version, recovery, rom and kernel.
And in addition are u using an app to tweak the kernel u're using?
tnx dude
this problem exist in most 4.3 rom/kernels.. it's there in all undevolted kernels.. but overvolting won't fix this..
it's weird,, my cpu type is fast.. it should be bear much undervolting..
i've edited twrp recovery.. and using FauxClock

not that easy to say beeing on fast bin chip should allow much undervolting. Obviously you gone to far and getting glitches on camera.
First thing I'd do is clear data and uninstal fauxclock and reflash my current rom (wipe cache and dalvik). Now back on stock kernel (most likely since most roms using stock one) with stock ramdisk etc. I'd try camera and see if it is working without glitches. Then choose the kernel to go and I'd use the related tweaking app (Faux kernel = faux clock, semaphore = semaphore manager and so on) and undervolting step by step checking if camera works in between.
Check your kernel thread you might some posts of how much people undervolted.
A little bit informaion about undervolting can be found here:

By overvolting you mean going over the default voltages? I think this could be indeed result in the same issue as undervolting to much. But just a wild guess and I don't know why to overvolt at all.
Applying the default kernel voltages should solve your issue...does it?

Note 3 N9005 cant overclock processor

Hi guys, fairly new to modding my phone, have tried a few different roms and kernels over the last week, and have sort of settled on cyanogen CM12.1 lolliop 5.1.1. with the kernel that comes with the rom. I've been seeing a few posts/roms that claim its possible to overclock the processor to 2.7ghz now I've tried to install synapse, and stweaks neither of which seem compatible, so I have kernel adiutor installed, but the max frequency it will offer me is 2,3 ghz, am I missing something? can't seem to find any info, can anyone point me in the right direction please

No apps can overclock if the kernel doesn't support the overclock.
Not all phones can can reach so high overclock.
Get arters kernel for cm12.1. Or use cm12.1 by temasek which supports up to 2.5
Thanks for the advise, I'm going to install arters kernel now and see what happens
I installed the arter kernel, and still no overclocking, also reduced my Antutu bench from 45403 down to 3400ish, so gone back to cm12.1 kernel for now. any ideas why I can't increase mas cpu speed?
Maybe it doesn't support till 2.7GHz. Try different kernel

Ok. well I have an update, I flashed the kitkat 4.4 liquid smooth rom yesterday, and that allowed me to overclock the cpu but unfortunatly, even overclocked it was slower than Tamasks cm12.1 rom, I also tried the liquid smooth lollipop rom, but again, it didn't allow me to overclock the cpu, it was faster than the kitkat rom, but still not as fast as the cm12.1 so I've gone back to that for now. Its looking like something to do with the lollipop version of android thats stopping the cpu from being overclocked....
Hm strange
