[Q] Nexus 7 Custom Kernels & Stock Frequncieas - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a question about N7 custom kernels and how they relate to stock frequncies.
Using stock kernel, the stock frequency of the N7 is 1.2GHz, with a EDP Single Core Boost up to 1.3GHz. My question is: what frequency do I set in a custom kernel to simulate stock - 1.3 or 1.2? That is, do custom kernels include an EDP boost in their frequency settings (e.g. if I use TricksterMod to set my frequency to 1.3, is that 1.2 plus single core boost, or is that 1.3 in general).
I'm a noob, and would appreciate any help I can get.

Overclocking?

Any guide for overclocking DHD?
HTC HERO - HTC HD2 - NOW HTC DESIRE HD & SAMSUNG GALAXY S Bring on the modding.
After rooting your phone and stuff, you will be able to install a new kernel (sometimes present in a custom ROM).
Different kernels support different options. Some let you clock the processor above 1 Ghz. When you have installed such a kernel, download the SetCPU app (also there on the marketplace). With SetCPU you can adjust the clockspeed.
Couldn't find a guide that fast, but it isn't that hard. Just install a kernel (or custom rom with a kernel) that support overclocking and download SetCPU.

[Q] razr m cpu governor

does anyone know what the default governor for the razr m is in stock rom? does stock rom allow for changing it?
if so, what software shoudl i use? if not, how about CPU tuner or SetCPU?
I think default is ondemand or interactive, but you can also use performance or userspace.
The apps you mentioned, Rom Toolbox, or Fauxclock 123 should work.
yes, they run on boot mode,
i use android tuner though.. all in 1 tools..?

[Q] Any kernel for i9500 lolipop with undervolting support?

Hey folks I have the i9500 and all i want is to undervolt to reduce the excessive heat generated from this phone. Any kernel working on android 5.0 (AOSP or Stock) with undervolting support?
Thanks
Unknown. I was going to mention the kernel I used, but then realized you were asking about the I9500.
Well forgive me for my noobiness, but is there any way to enable the voltage settings in the stock kernel? I see some custom roms having "battery tweaks" which I guess is undervolting.. Any developer who can clarify much appreciated
The main problem you're going to have is one of availability. There simply aren't that many ROMs for the I9500, and probably fewer kernels. For the I9505 I know of two kernels that support undervolting, because I've used both of them. But the I9505 uses a Qualcomm processor rather than the Exynos processor, so those kernels will be of no use to you. Did you look in the I9500 Android Development subforum to see what's there?
Not yet but Perseus kernel dev said that he will update his kernel to lollipop when he has finished some other thing.
Also battery tweak in custom rom is not undervolting or unlikely to be. Since undervolting is device dependent.
well that is very likely, but I read somewhere (dont remember which rom ) that the kernel was undervolted -50 mV across all frequencies which should be stable for most chipsets, so was just thinking if devs could access the voltage tables and modify it using tools like synapse. (again apologize for the noobiness).
edit - well of course devs could do that andrei and maxfu come to mind, but can it be enabled or accessed on a stock kernel by a normal user?

Cannot overclock higher than 2.26GHz?

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9005.
I installed a custom recovery and rom 2 days ago, first rom being phronesis 2.0 rom.
From there I tried overclocking my device but all apps show me 2.26ghz is the max my device can go, apps used include: kernal auditor, setcpu, trickster mod and no frills cpu control.
I searched the forums a bit and so I thought flashing a new kernel would help. I flashed Arter97s kernel and it still didn't allow me to overclock higher than 2.26 ghz, then I tried audax's kernel with no luck.
Then today I moved on to Tesla 5.1.1 Rom, and I still cannot overclock higher
I yet again reflashed arter97s kernel and still I am having no luck.
Any help?
Thanks

This is the limitation of the kernel. It provides the frequencies it supports, so you need a kernel with OC support. I do not OC, so sorry, no clue which to take which even is allowed to talk about here. ShinTo was supporting it AFAIK, but they had to leave due to not providing the source and thus violating the GPL.

I am able to overclock my 9005 up to 2.7GHz with mentioned apps. I am not sure which kernal I am using. I have Phronesis 5.0 on and am getting ready to flash 5.2. The only shlep is that I need to set the frequency after each reboot. I wish this could be included in a kernal.
Try using leankernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2488082 I had same kind of problem then I flashed this and used kernel auditor. Now everything works perfectly!
Can't Flash Kernel on note 3 sm-n900
I have been looking for solution at multiple sites. Hope to get answer here. I have downloaded a stock rom lollipop for my note 3 sm-n900.
I was successful at overclocking it to 2.1ghz but i want it to be at 2.7ghz and the current kernel does not support it.
I tried flashing three different kernels lk-hltemo 6..., lk-hlte v6 and lk-hlteu 6... using CWM and TWRP but kernel didn't flash.
Somebody pleaseeeee helppppp....
Read the thread .
But if you dont know what you are doing you will brick your phone .

Question about custom kernels, and whether I actually need one

Hey guys
So I've been rocking Franco Kernel since I first rooted, but now I'm considering rooting without a custom kernel after updating to OOS 10. However, there are a few settings I want to be able to tweak and I'm wondering if I can do that on a stock OOS kernel
Basically, on Franco Kernel Manager the things I tweak most depending on my needs are:
1) CPU / GPU governor, to interactive, conservative, powersave or performance
2) CPU / GPU maximum frequency
3) Cores, sometimes I disable some when in a low battery emergency
Is it possible to change these settings with FK Manager on OOS's stock kernel? While being rooted of course
