i have a nexus 4 running liquid smooth 2.2 and franco kernel milestone 2
here's the question, in liquid smooth controls there is performance control which is like the app for franco's kernel but with less functions
i was just wondering will the franco kernel frequencies be followed if i have different frequencies in the performance control?
IM SORRY IM A NOOB

I would only use the Franco Kernel Updater app for the franco kernel or you might get conflicts and issues between the two control apps. In the FKU you control frequencies, color and gamma, UV and more.

so i should just ignore the performance control?.. its built-in with the rom and cannot be deactivated

My apologies if this has been answered but I haven't been able to find it ...
I'm running AvaFroyo V7 ROM on my rooted EVO, and installed SetCPU. Things are definitely faster. But it appears SetCPU only allows me to UNDERCLOCK (to save battery life, etc.).
Can SetCPU *not* overclock? What am I missing here ...
Thanks in advance!,
Jon
Overclocking has to be enabled in your kernel before you can set it ine set cpu.
It will allow you to overclock if you are using a custom kernel that is capable of the higher frequencies.

Thanks Steve!
Any recommendations ....?
I personally prefer Netarchy CFS 4.1.9.1 and I overclock to 1.19. King makes good kernels too..

Thanks, much appreciated!
Btw, what kind of clock speeds are you able to attain with those kernels?
-- Jon
Most of Kings and Netarchy's kernels can overclock to 1.26 but some CPUs become unstable at those frequencies. Mine runs real nice and safe at 1.19
Duh, my brain was on auto-pilot, didn't see the 1.19 in your previous post.
Thanks a bunch man!
Hi to all,
I'm currently an happy used of the Semaphore 1.8.2 kernel, but with it I can only undervolt my CPU, now I'm looking for a Stock Kernel (JVT compatible) able to undervolt RAM/GPU/Screen too, if exists of course?
Any idea?
Thanks to all.

MAybe Cf-root kernels, I'm running on it and uv/oc it with tegrak overlock, works fine untill 1.2 GHz. Didn't try 1.3 GHz, afraid of crash.
Undervolting screen, and RAM requires recompiling the kernel AFAIK. Talon and Galaxian does that if I'm not mistaken. Not sure about Semaphore though.
I have no idea if someone did it for SGS I... for sure, GPU voltage/frequency can be changed for SGS II (e.g. by Click... I didn't saw anything like this for SGS yet.
You'll need combination for kernel, e.g talon as mentioned above, and "Control Freak" app. Still, I did not saw anything for RAM.
Why not trying one of the alternative kernels?
SpeedMod, Midnight and Semaphore are pretty good and stable kernels and all of them allow UV.

Thanks, yes at the end I choose the Semaphore 1.9.0 (Big Memory version) with a little modified ScreenScale Status script, a long tested extreme undervolt (of CPU core and non-core voltages) and freezing more not used system apps and services, a customized JuiceDefender Ultimate, and a bit more... so now I can obtain about 48 hours of battery life (expecially when I don't do any reboot7recovery/new-flash... ehehehe!)!
And that's all!
These days talondev and semaphore on top. But semaphore is better a bit now for me.

i use talonDEV because in seem to be stable on low frequencies
i set 100mhz 200mhz max when the screen is off and semaphore freeze my galaxy,with talonDEV work well
i have to try the undervolt parameters,but iusing juice defender i save my battery even if not UV

Yes really the Semaphore 1.8.2 (I don't try with the latest 1.9.0) freeze the phone on 100-200 Mhz in sleep status but I chose it instead of TalonDev for the following motives:
1)...I had some little icon display problems (only 1-2 times) with TalonDEV (draws a little black box in the Icon upper-right corner);
2)...with Semaphore my quadrant score is higher (about 15%/20% more) and generally the system is more fluid and responsive
3)...with the Semaphore Script (installed from the kernel) I'm really able to customize more and more my kernel but with the TalonDEV I can only change the Memory Options (with it's custom application).
What do you think about?
Hey guys..
I am a kind of guy who likes to test all kernels myself to decide which one is best for my usage..
I notice a lot of people using "Hell's Core" kernel on their nexus..
I googled and did not find a english forum for hell's core..
I generally go through the last 3-4 pages of a kernel thread to get to know the issues in that kernel.. but as I cannot do so for hell's core kernel.. I request hell's core kernel users to please mention your issues and expereances of using that kernel..
This can be a good english reference for people wanting to know more about hell's core..
and yeah google translate sucks..

Thank you so much for your effort towards helping.. But I think you are a bit confused. I am talking about "Hell's Core" and not ultimate hell's core... For your information if you do not already know, its mentioned in the UHC thread
This Kernel is a rework of Hells-Core !

I've been using it for about 4 days now. I have noticed improved battery life. With regular usage, and not a lot of gaming, it extends the time I need to connect to a charger by about 1.5 - 2 hours (vs stock kernel).
As far as speed goes I haven't noticed any improvement but the nexus 4 is already quite fast. Also the kernel doesn't allow overclocking so you should expect about the same performance as the stock kernel.
I'm using intellidemand cpu governor at 192Mhz min value.

PA is jwr so use anykernel.zip for jss based roms use AOSP.zip
If you choose wrong kernel,you won't brake anything,but you'll have screen tearing.
I'm using hellscore for a while,great balance on baterry live and performance.
My recommendations for hellscore.
did you say hells kernel?

Hi guys,
Would love to know your opinion about the best custom kernel to go along with stock Android.
Please share your experience.

Ive heard it has some issues qith the latest r214 build. Would love to try but looking for it to be a bit more stable
if you are a one time flasher (ie you like to flash and not tweak the kernel or anything) - Franco, Mirage are suitable for you.
if you like to tweak the kernel, you can use - hellscore, Hellsdoctor or ak - its not that these kernels' defaults are not good, its just that they can be more optimised with profiles with synapse - for eg ones from gorilla_p (bit.ly/makostuff).
if you like kernel tweaking with dedicated apps - faux or Semaphore kernels.
i am not able to give you a more comprehensible reply because you haven't specified what feature you are looking for - more SOT or better performance.
more SOT - HD or ak
better performance - Franco

I've heard a lot about hellscore and hellsdoctor.
I'm looking for a good balance between performance and battery life.
Ive heard that franco gives a good standby time as it only uses 1 ir 2 cores in stand by.
Do hellsdoctor also offer the same. Im using tricksterMOD now and don't mind a bit of tweaking as well

3 to 5hrs SOT. Little gaming will put you between 3-4hrs, no gaming 4hr-5hr
Franco kernel.. Nothing else:thumbup:

It is simple, tested on my nexus 6, just go to system/bin and delete mpdecision, then install an app that controls kernel, like kernel adiutor, raise min freq of cpu to 883000 mhz, then set apply on boot, reboot phone and enjoy lagfree and smooth super battery life

Disabling in a kernel app will accomplish the same thing. The reason you are seeing a change in battery life is because of the 3 second input boost of MPD. Most of the custom kernels have a generic touch boost driver that is set to 1 second or less to take the place of the mpd boost and increase battery because of the decreased boost time.
MPD works great for some people and not for others. It is greatly dependent on your usage habits. For my typical usage, with mpd on, I average 6-7 hours of screen on time. If you are a gamer, where you are constantly touching the screen, mpd will adversely affect your battery life because of the constant boost.
As a kernel developer, I definitely would not recommend deleting the mpd binary. I would suggest trying a couple of different kernels and/or configurations to accomplish the same results.
lol.. seriously? i guess thats one reason that ive disabled mpdecision for the last 3+ years on whichever nexus i was on, but not the main reason
How can I turn mpd off on ex kernel manager
you don't need a kernel app to disable it BTW. all kernel apps do is provide a ui for you to use. it can be done via a terminal emulator app.. type,
su(press enter)
stop mpdecision(press enter)
and that's it.
I'm using kernel auditor and in the CPU hotplug section the first listing is mp decision. Is that what needs to be disabled?
OK, silly question.. do you know what mpdecision does? do you know what disabling mpdecision does?

@simms22 good point here. This is good for everyone to know. If you disable mpd without a replacement, you risk all cores not coming back online after deep sleep. Mpd doesn't actually control hotplugging, it controls input boost and onlining of cores.

and that's exactly why I disable mpdecision, so I can have all 4 cores active at all times.

A replacement such as Zen, Mako, Blu_Plug, etc.
Also, (just an FIY) Zen isn't really a hotplug (it keeps all four cores active at all times, unlike Mako, Blu_Plug, etc). It's still lumped in there for some reason.
I highly recommend disabling MPDecision. You know what MPDecision stands for, right? MakePoor Decisions

i believe its already disabled in elementalx kernel. anyways, you can always use a terminal emulator app, then type..
su(press enter)
stop mpdecision(press enter)
thats all. all kernel apps do is give you a ui to whats already available.

Some kernels come with it already removed. Check the features section of the original post in the Elemental X thread or try searching the thread.
I can say from experience that Kernel Auditor doesn't give you access to all of the adjustments in Elemental X. Some features are only accessible through the official Elemental X app, so it might be there, but you can't use Kernel Auditor to adjust it.
