Random lockups

As per the title, I have started experiencing random system lockups since yesterday. I have had to perform two battery pulls and I'm starting to worry that my ext partition won't be so lucky next time...
I have no idea what is causing the lockups, though both have occurred while using Swype. Coincidence?
For now I'm going to set my system clock back to 600Mhz and use the default input method for a while and see if I still get lockups, at which point I will probably flash another ROM unless I can find a solution, which is where you guys (hopefully) come in. Is there anything else I can do to diagnose and/or solve the problem?
- Typed from my rooted HTC Legend -

It's most likely the OC that's causing the problem, Swpye shouldn't affect the stability. Unless it's a cracked version

Try interactive governor or flash latest kernel from the other thread.

That's peculiar, as I've had the processor on 768Mhz for a while now and I've had no problems at all before now.
As for Swype... it could be. ;P

It manages when the processor speeds up. It doesn;t run at 768MHz all the time, that's just the highest you allow. Ondemand scales the frequency up when it's needed, and lowers it again afterward. It seems to be a little bugged in our kernels though, and causes crashes.
Interactive does a similar thing, but without polling the CPU. It also ramps the frequency up a little more quickly. I use it, it makes the phone more responsive (IMO), and also eliminates the need for profiles in setCPU (to a degree)

Just checked my kernel version - I already have the latest version (2.6.32.17). I've also set the governor to interactive as suggested, but I have pushed the max clock back to 768Mhz and the min clock to 122Mhz.
While we're here, is there any way to push the min clock down even lower, or would that require fiddling with the kernel? In which case, I have two questions:
1. blay0, I've heard people who can push their min clock down to something ridiculous like 19Mhz if I recall correctly, which makes battery life last a crazy amount of time. Could you include that as the minimum clock in the next kernel for b 0.8?
2. If not, how do I go about changing it myself?
I want to learn.

You'd have to mess around with kernel source code. I wouldn't know where to begin, sorry

Wouldn't 19 MHz min also make the phone painfully slow to wake up? Just curious.

That did cross my mind but other users have reported success with it, so I figured I might as well give it some investigation.

I had mine go to 19 min with screen off once, it did my head in. Maybe interactive with a reasonable upper limit with screen off (like 400) would work, who knows

Maybe not quite 19Mhz, then.
Perhaps we should do some testing to see how much processing power is needed to wake the phone quickly? Is there any way to test that?

Back on topic, I just had another lockup while using the interactive governor. This time I froze up while loading Fruit Ninja.
Now I'm at a total loss for what could be causing the lockups.
- Swyped from my rooted HTC Legend -

Seeing as nobody can seem to pin-point the problem, I'm moving to CM7 permanently as soon as it's released as stable.

Please share your voltage and governor

Please share
1. your favorite governor (do you use any different governor on different profiles?)
2. your voltage parameters
3. Your benchmark using quadrant
Thanks

No one wants to play?

Maybe like me, they have no idea what you are talking about
What is a governor?
What voltage do you mean?
My quadrant score is 3900 ish

Thanks for the reply, I don't think I'm good enough to explain but, in a nutshell,
A governor is a a piece of code in the kernel that decides on the cpu speed. each kernel has multiple governors
voltage is where you can decide what voltage is delivered to your cpu at certain frequency. undervoltage will usually help you save battery. we have to pay attention not to go too low or it phone will freeze
download setcpu it will all become clearer

I will give this another bump before letting it die

Even I would be intrested in sharing this
currently I am using CF root with ondemand and its working all good

FM kernel with interactive. I find my phone snappier with this governor. I liked it the most with smartassv2 on Abysssomething (don't remember now) kernel, but too many teething problems with this one, had to revert to FM. I'll give it another shot soon though.

Have you tried InteractiveX? Or, better yet, know the differences between the two? I am currently using smartassv2, FM kernel and have no complaints but would be interested if there was something a bit snappier when opening an app (I still get a bit of lag if I quickly select an app after unlocking the phone).

Yes, I've tried InteractiveX and OndemandX - they're both absolute rubbish (at least from my point of view). Both responsiveness and benchmark results were dismal (2800-3300 quadrant advanced). These are governors for anally retentive battery life lovers. Nothing wrong with that itself but beats the purpose when buying state of the art top shelf performance smartphone IMO.

Good to know. I appreciate the advice. Does that mean you also tried smartassv2 with the FM kernel? Any discernible difference between that and interactive, if you have? And sorry for all the questions but it saves me the trouble of trying them!

I just flashed the 1.3 FM a moment ago. Now running 100-1704 smartassv2, haven't played with voltages yet. Responsiveness in terms of screen scolling, lags & stutters seems better than 200-1400 interactive. Performance in Quadrant Advanced and Nenamark2 seems a tiny bit worse (but I don't really care about that, I use benchmarks only to roughly estimate, smoothness is what I'm after). I can't give you direct sources because I don't remember, but having spent several hours digging last weekend I concluded that for people who put performance slighly over battery life governors to be considered are interactive, smartass(v2), savagedzed and performance. Funny enough - I'm getting consistently worse benchmarks on performance governor on all kernels. I wonder why?

Thanks again. I will play around with some of the governors and settings to find the right fit. I think I will try savagedzen next but I am pretty happy with smartassv2 and may just stick with it.

Smartassv2 and vr. After reading a bit about it they seem to be the best for performance and balanced battery life.

i share with you my SetCPU config, voltage ...
it's very stable for me. It's not performance oriented but battery friendly.
what you think ?
EDIT : I use AbyssNote Kernel 1.2

I'm getting nice results here on FM Kernel 1.3. 1704mHz (1375mV) - 100mHz (775mV), lulzactive governor. 5000-5872 in Quadrant advanced, 32-35 in Nenamark2. Battery life good with low to med usage, poor when playing games, running satnav etc. - hardly a surprise We'll see about stability but so far so good.

This thread is finally picking off ! thank you all
I am currently on FM 1.3 and preferring lulzactive
I don't use any over clocking I guess I don't dare. is it safe?
I think i'm pretty aggressive with under voltage i'm running 1175mv at 1400mhz and 775mv at 200mhz. For some reason my phone freezes any time I use the 100mhz no matter the voltage .
Can you share the whole voltage for a comparison ?
with all this I can hardly get a full day of use with my battery but I guess I'm a pretty heavy on usage. no gaming or anything extensive but wifi-browsing-emails-3g-bluetooth all day

I read on some other kernel thread that Samsung's implementation of the 100mhz step is incomplete/buggy. That's probably why it doesn't work properly.

[Poll] AbyssNote Kernel * Favorite Governors *

Well I am sticking to one Rom and that's Crisekelo's like in my good 'n old sgs froyo times, but I like to test various kernels, when I have time...
Anyway I never saw a Mod Kernel with so many governors as the AbyssNote kernel, which I am testing right now..
Since there are many users out there that unlike me, already own the GNote for a long time and are way more experienced than me with this particular Kernel, I decided to start this Poll-thread so users can vote on their favorite governor and prehaps elaborate a little about it..
Thanks in advance..

Since Abyss Kernel is not working for my Note (overheat), I' at FM kernel with SavagedZen governor and vr I/0 Scheduler, butter smooth and stable, goes to deep sleep as it supposed to, sharp performance and moderate battery life. I know you prefer Abyss but just wanna let you know how the other kernel is working.
When I was on Abyss I was using abyssplug governor with and without undervolting. Hope you can get Abyss work for you, if you manage to do it without overheat I would appreciate any info.
have fun!

Oops ... you reacted fast ! The poll was not even ready
At the moment I don't prefer any kernel ( Only the rom) and on a device such as the GNote, I have a hunch that we dont need a super-optimized kernel with tons of iterations and that's why I always keep CF-Root and Speedmod handy, but I like the dedication and availability of AbyssNote developer, so I am giving it another try...
Since I have not enough time to play with the GNote as I did with the sgs, I am hoping that the AbyssNote users will give this specific input ....

Hi betoNL,
just give the Abyss Kernel v3.7 another try. I am really satisfied with ABYSSPLUG governor and the SIO scheduler - great balance between performance and battery life. And it is also butter smooth and stable without any overclocking indeed ;-)
To be honest: I can't understand your problem with overheating. It could have its seeds in an app with unnormal behaviour or a constant hang-up in the background. Maybe you will execute this little turnaround at the next opportunity:
1. Charge your battery to 100%
2. Use a Taskkiller and kill every open task
3. Reboot in Recovery Mode and wipe voltage & battery stats (DON'T WIPE ANYTHING ELSE, PLEASE!)
4. Reboot yours system...
Best regards

Hi,
great poll... my vote goes to the abyssplug ;-)
Would be interesting to add users choice of the I/O scheduler.
What do you think about that little improvement?
Best regards
[bs]

As I said, I recommend AbyssPlug

I don't understand how abyssplug works. So I don't use it.
I do use lulzactive because it uses mostly my lowest frequency which drains battery the least when not stressed and highest frequency when stressed and basically ignores everything in between. It's been great.
can someone explain how abyssplug works? I've been searching, it only says modified hotplug. That doesn't tell me much.

AbyssPlug Governor:
Abyssplug governor is a modified hotplug governor
>>Hotplug Governor:
The "hotplug" governor scales CPU frequency based on load, similar to
"ondemand". It scales up to the highest frequency when "up_threshold"
is crossed and scales down one frequency at a time when "down_threshold"
is crossed. Unlike those governors, target frequencies are determined
by directly accessing the CPUfreq frequency table, instead of taking
some percentage of maximum available frequency.
The key difference in the "hotplug" governor is that it will disable
auxillary CPUs when the system is very idle, and enable them again once
the system becomes busy. This is achieved by averaging load over
multiple sampling periods; if CPUs were online or offlined based on a
single sampling period then thrashing will occur.
Sysfs entries exist for "hotplug_in_sampling_periods" and for
"hotplug_out_sampling_periods" which determine how many consecutive
periods get averaged to determine if auxillery CPUs should be onlined or
offlined. Defaults are 5 periods and 20 periods respectively.
Otherwise the standard sysfs entries you might find for "ondemand" and
"conservative" governors are there.

My choice is lulzactive.
Most important things for me are smoothness, fast wake&unlock and gaming performance. I don't care about the battery life that much so it seems a perfect choice for me.

I like lulzactive, too!

What, no smartassv2 love here ? I found it at least as good as lulzactive for my usage.
My priorities - Fast response after sleep, smoothness, battery.
My governor choices on top were : SmartAssV2 (Currently using), AbyssPlus (Used it, liked it, later will compare to SmartAssV2) and Lulzactive (which is pretty good as well).

Believe me I don't get it either and I'm pretty upset I can't use that kernel which is so valued by other android users. I was trying your advice and any other I could find in Abyss Kernel thread, nothing works for me. What is really funny I don't have any problems on other kernels. Well maybe I'm just unlucky this way. I'm thinking about getting my Note to Samsung for screen display exchange, so maybe they can do something about overheating too, maybe it's hardware related.
Thank you for your interest and advice

anyone using the app 2nd core and turning on dynamic hotplug?
It rly helps the battery
Might be useless to use along side abyssplug tho since it does the same thing

I use lulzactive, don't care about a little more battery drain
I use too 500mhz minimum speed @ 800mv, with it is pretty strange because 100 and 200 are not stable at that voltage and need 825, so having more speed I use less battery.

You don't use less battery because it's not only determined by voltage. Frequency us also a factor in power consumption, so 100MHz at 825 uses less battery for sure.

There's a post here somewhere here in the gnote forum that shows a study where they explain how 50 and 100MHz do consume more battery cause the CPU gets more stressed and takes longer to perform the task that would take less time and effort to accomplish at a higher frequency (or something like that)

Actually a higher frequency @ same voltage as a lower frequency would consume LESS battery because it will complete the task faster.

With my setup only ondemand really worked well, my second core scaling is always set to 2 cores enabled and I have a landscape setting for ADWex and any other governor will give me like 10-15fps when opening the app drawer.

Abyssplug fits my needs: I don't need so much power (no playstation-like games) but I use phone h24, from music to calls, from surfing to calendar/alarm...quite all stuff by BT headset and voice command. Battery drains slower than expected, my Note stays alive 'till night

[Guide] Get rid of lag in games / Interactive gov is bugged!

Hi guys,
I have the 855 version of this phone, and I have noticed that, even if Antutu scores are spot on (44k), in games such as GT racing 2 or similar I get a lot of lag.
Now, everyone will think "there are 1000 threads about lag, stick to those". Unfortunately, tricks such as getting rid of the thermal protection are really not good options, as the phone temperature will start to skyrocket.
There's a much easier and safer solution: root the phone and change the governor from interactive to conservative.
With interactive gov and CPU temp open in the background, I have noticed the CPU frequency bounces continuously up and down between 300mhz and 2400, even if the CPU temp is only 55c or so. This is causing the lag! Interactive governor is severely bugged, and this happens with any rom (I have tried both the stock 20h and the ChupaChups 4.2) and kernel (non AOSP at least).
Then, I switched to conservative, launched the game again, and guess what....now the frequency is nicely stable at 2457mhz throughout the entire gameplay and lag is gone completely. Temperatures? Totally fine: max 60c while playing and usually between 35 and 40 while whatsapping.
I literally tried everything to get rid of this damn lag, and the only thing that worked before this solution was to use a different kernel (chupa chups 2.1) and changing the governor...but I was getting crazy high temperatures, that sometimes touched 80c, and this was with a very heavy undervolt too! So I recommend to use the stock kernel, because it's the only one - for me at least - that grants good performances (and by that I mean no lag in games whatsoever and constant 2450mhz while playing) with good temperatures.
Any other option, including undervolting and trying different kernels didn't work for me, because either the CPU frequency kept shifting up and down every second causing lag, or - when I managed to keep it stable using different kernels and undervolting - the CPU temperature while playing got way too high (70c+, touching 80c sometimes).
To sum it up
1) Stick to stock rom and stock kernel (because of temperature issues)
2) Root
3) Change governor from interactive to conservative with Trickstermod (busybox required)
4) Enjoy smooth gaming experience and very good temperatures, with no significant throttle whatsoever!
Hope this helps!

as far as i know, conservative puts the cpu speed into the lowest possible, thus i thought won't be good for gaming performance.
nevertheless, i'd try for a few days and see if there's any noticeable difference.
thanks for sharing the knowledge, OP!

Theoretically you are right. But...interactive is bugged. Ondemand doesn't work (it will make your phone freeze) and performance will drain too much battery. So we are pretty much left with conservative.
Give it a try, and when you do, make sure you have CPU temp open to monitor both temperature and cpu frequency!
Let me know

Thank you! It really did the trick, gaming became MUCH better.
I tried RR3 - it became a lot better. On interactive it lags even in menu, on conservative it's rendering at 23-30 fps with slight not-game-breaking lags.

Battery
And about the battery? Will drain more in conservative than interactive? And will speed up the phone in all app or only in heavy games, when cpu is more active?

I wouldn't worry about battery life..

It seems that this working generally, phone is much snappier and smooth for me than on interactive.

Yeah...the reason is that LG did an awful job with the interactive governor, and what's even worse is that it's actually using it as the default one.
Pretty incredible how bugged this is.

Yes but I think it's possible to make script in init.d folder to run conservative on boot as default. Maybe someone make one.

I Will try this ☺only for curiosity! I need busybox installed too or trickstermod only?

I've been doing the same thing for a long time now. I use SetCPU to automatically switch to the performance governor whenever the screen is on, and interactive whenever the screen is off.
You may also want to consider disabling mpdecision and thermald also. One of the two (probably mpdecision) will regularly change the governor back to interactive if you don't.

That works to get rid of the lag...but my phone was reaching easily 80c.
Now, with everything stock, the frequency stays nicely at 2457mhz with no throttle at all and the in-game temperature only maxes out at 63/64c.

Thanks for sharing this brother...just switched to conservative in trickster and I'll see how it goes.
I'm on crash Rom stock kernel with thermal mod activated...
Don't have any temperature issues till now expert while playing heavy games for some time.
Thanks again

Are the settings in trickstermod applied as you change the setting ? Or do you need to apply them manually ?
Also, do they apply on boot ?

On the latest trickster version you hit the upper right settings icon and the first four option that appear are under the set on boot part.check the kernel setting to be set on boot and you are done.

H815 Kernel Setting Experiment

Hi
I have my G4 unlocked and rooted on 10C, and thought I would try some Kernel Setting experiments using Trickster.
Stock settings use Interactive.
So I tried Userspace but seems that Userspace sets the clock speed to full nearly 90% of the time for me.
So I decided to give Ondemand and read ahead 1024 CFQ a try.
Maybe a placebo? But watching the cpu clock speeds, it doesn't seem to hang up at 1248 like it does in Interactive and drops much quicker back to 384, but equally ramps up quicker too.
I seem to get less battery drain when browsing instead of Interactive 512 CFQ (Stock setting) after a few days testing.
I know very little about kernels on Android, but thought I would share my findings if anyone is interested.

damn i hope root will come fast, i need to have conservative govenor, as it the only one that plays ppsspp tekken well.

the major isue I see is the actual hotplug that keeps all cores always on.
That is pretty strange...LG's devs must be sleeping while our cores are not

Didn't find Conservative in the options. Only Interactive, Userspace, Ondemand, Powersave, & Performance.
Haven't tried Powersave yet though?

I wouldn't play with actual governors and let them at their default value until we have a custom kernel.

Thanks, but I am still finding Ondemand seems to give me less battery drain under use such as web browsing.
