How long your battery can last after overclock? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i overclock my phone to 1600 - 200 and i dont know what was happening because i sleep at 4am and wake up at 12pm boom! my battery becomes 30%
can someone help me with the exact ratio of your undervolt? and i will make it to my phone because i dont know how to apply undervolting in my galaxy s3 Help!!!

I underboltedbusing stweaks and uv -50 on all frequencies and tested yesterday and got 22hrs and battery was still 24% and was squire heavy use

hey man can you teach me how to undervolt ? because my battery drains fast
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

All I did was use stweaks (I have Siyah kernel) and in Undervolt section just set to -50. Job done.
Tried -25 first and hat was fine so tried -50, then -75 but that was unstable so went back to -50.
Then ran stability test for 10 mins which it passed so kept setting and used better battery stats to track battery usage

With CM7 Batt = 40°C and CPU=53°C is that too hot

With CM7 my Batt = 40°C and CPU=53°C is that too hot. It happens after about 20 minutes of normal use. I'm on cm7 beta. i'm running everything default, which I believe is 1100 mhz. Let me know what you guys think.
Seems fine to me. I have setcpu set to lower clock speed at 65C, but rarely get to 60C. I see nothing wrong with your temps.

I think as long as the CPU doesn't go over 60 you're good

That's correct. Its only after you go beyond 60 that you start getting into trouble. You're fine if you're topping out at 53.
The only issue IMO is that above 40 on the battery is that the battery does tend to drain faster...

After an hour of use or so, I got to 63C on the CPU? What should I do?

What were you doing on your phone, which kernel do you have installed, and what radio are you using?
I was just randomly doing stuff, including surfing, Netflix etc. my kernel is 2.6.32.39-mb860-cm7-Karanalmod stock cm7 beta and my radio is N_01.77.30 P

Hmm, try flashing the enhanced 1.0 GHz kernel and try some undervolting. Overclocking, while resulting in increase speed, leads to more heat production as the CPU is forced to do more work. Simply setting the CPU to 1.0GHz on setcpu won't cut it yet as the app only changes the clock speed for the main core. As the second core is switched on, the CPU reverts back to 1.1 (or whatever the highest speed is).
Where do I get that kernel?

Look up faux's thread in the dev section

[Q] CPU Question ?

I have the 2.1 siyah kernel and i left it in perfomance govener for a few hours by mistake is it ok too run 1.6ghz for a few hours stright
Actually SGS2 is too fast already and i see no need for OC at all
Anyway, i don't really know about that kernel, but i believe that at 1,6GHz it increases voltage which isn't too good thing and might reduce processors life time.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Unless you make 100% usage at 1.6 ghz for some straight hours, its not going to harm you and your mobile except your battery life
Heat is a cpus worst enemy. Also keep the voltage in mind when ocing. Your phone will only be running at 1.6 under full load so a couple of hours of max activity will get the phone hot and with heat come instability.

I dont know if it was running %100 cpu but it was at 1600mhz the whole time right now everything is ok but it seems to get slightly warm quick and runs 31 celius battrey but that might just be normal

As I understand, underclocking will only help you slightly, you're better off using apps like Juice Defender or Green Battery (forget the actual name) to help with battery life.
I use Juice Defender. And the profile I use is screen off with minimum and maximum clock speed at the lowest setting and the priority to 100.
Unless you have an undervolting kernel. Then you undervolt

Have you tried going lower?
My current battery saving setup:
Rom/Kernel: joker skinny 1.3 / joker 1.4 oc beta ext4ready wifi highpro
Battery Saver Mode: Maximum
SetCpu Main Clock setting: 216-750Mhz (with joker's tuning @ 750 it benches about the same as a bone stock MoPho)
SetCpu Profiles: Screen off= 216-456mhz, Charging (think dock use)=216-1400Mhz
Undervolt:
1.4Ghz=1200mV (-100mV)
1.2Ghz=1100mV (-100mV)
1.0Ghz=900mV (-100mV)
750Mhz=750mV (-125mV)
456Mhz=650mV (-150mV)
216Mhz=595mV (-175mV)
RESULTS: battery is at 94% after 11 hours of standby with WiFi OFF, 3G ON and good signal levels. This includes checking the time a couple of times and my alarm this AM. The best I could ever get with my super tuned OG Evo was 1% per hour of standby.
Wow

Gov's. what do u prefer?

Alright what governor r u guys using? I'm using smartass2 and although I het excellent batt life when screen is off, it is a bit choppy and not as smooth as I would like.and it drains fairly fast when screen is on or plating angry birds for like 5 mins. I'm looking for something that's a good balance between smoothness and most importantly battery.
any ideas?
Try intellidemand. I have had good luck with it

have you set any special permaiters or anything? whats ur batt stats?
I use Wheatley. I usually get about 2h 15m to 2h 30m of screen time with the stock battery. No special tweaking to the parameters or anything either, just set it and you're good to go.

ive used lionheart, and it drained the batter SO fast. ima give wheatly a try on monday and intidemand tomorrow. compare the 2 results i guess lol
Battery stats on intellidemand are ok.. I'm a heavy user tho I use another OEM battery and an external charger and switch out thru the day.. I get about 1.5-2.0 hrs of screen time in about a 9-12hr period depending on what I'm doing.. sometimes I'll wake up and drain it dead in an hour and a half (dl, surfing, forums, texts few calls) I'm undervolted -50mv across the board. And set at 1.56ghz on viperrez using dsbs kernel..

flash a kernel that has them. DSB is the one that i know of that has a lot of them.

no. preformace hasent turned on the 2nd core for me, also since it runs at max frequency all the time, and dosent scale down, unnessarly heat and ussage from the cpu builds up and cooks it. should only be uses for benchmarking IMO
Next noobish question. It's easy to find it in AOSP, but I can't find the governors in Sense ROMs. I'm currently using ViperRez.
Smartassv2 on ziggy kernel. Went about 15+ hrs with 2+ screen on hrs OC'd @ 1.8. I also tethered ALOT during the screen off period and ran multiple benchmarks. Stock battery

If you're using DSB's kernel (I am), his latest has pegasusq governor on it. It seems to turn on the 2nd core more often. I use system tuner pro and CPU Usage Monitor. CPU usage monitor allows you to put icons on the notification bar showing CPU speed AND cpu utilization for both cores. So you can see whats going on. Also system tuner allows you to 'force' the second core on. You can do this with Ondemand with good results. IMO

it hasent work with me.... every time i force all cores online, the 2nd one still just shuts off auto mtcicallly. i just gavce up on that, but yea im thinking pegasusq will be best shot. or interactice for both gaming.

Low battery life while using supernexus 2 4.2.2 on my galaxy s3

Hi folks. I recently flashed to this ROM for the nexus 4 experience. Its really fast but I have noticed an issue. The backlight takes a lot of time to adjust brightness as power ambient light conditions.
Also the battery life is quite low. I live 40 away from work and I lose about 9% battery buy the time I teach work every morning without even touching it.
CPU governor is pegasusq while I/O scheduler is bfq. What can I do to get more battery life without compromising Performance?
Cheers

Most AOSP based rom have battery drain issues. Usually Android OS have a high percentage in battery usage stats. No fix as far as i know.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
As mentioned earlier, AOSP might be the problem, whereas you could also check with BetterBatteryStats what exactly is consuming most of your battery load. Maybe you will identify a problem that can be fixed.
Thanks for help guys. Will check it out.
