Spead limiter for samsung - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello dears
We know the ultra power saving mode on samsung apply some limits for saving energy of the battery.
Some of them are :
1-limit the backbground proccessor
2-limit the spead of cpu frequency
3-limit the biometric tools
Question:
I know that how can active the limitation of the background proccess in normal mode (out of ultra power saving mode)
But how can I active the cpu speed limiter in normal mode ? Where is the option in galaxy note 5?

If you was rooted you could ask it by kernel auditor and bring the processor speed up or down manually without root you can just do what Samsung sees fit obviously your not rooted right?

Hello dear
Thanks for your reply
Yes my note5 is not root
I know the control of cpu frequency by third party app may impact cpu and i afraid hurm to phone
Is it right?
Is there any option in android 7 for off and on it like background proccessing in normal mode?

hello Dear
I rooted my Phone
could you please tell me the Parameter to change to obtain samsung ultra Power saving mode state exactly?

Battery down in Suspend mode and cpu speed

Hi to all,
i know that there are problem with stand-by with folio, but there are a methot or app to shutdown all process when put in suspend mode the tablet?
There are a widget for cpu speed that works with tegra2 cpu, i've tried more than one without success...
With folio widget i set the cpu speet min and max, but i suppose that cpu works every time at the maximum because my battery doesn't live more than 3 hours.

{tips} [save battery] {all phones}

Hi all
Here are a few tips i would like to share wid u all. These tips will help u extract the maximum juice out of your xperias
Starting wid the simplest one
TIP NO 1 - ENABLE EXTENDED STANDBY MODE IN POWER SETTINGS
If u are on stock ics rom , go to settings, power management and check extended standby mode.
yes do it, this doesn't affects battery drain but enhance the standby time .
This helps to switch off wifi and data traffic when the phone screen is switched off for sometime.
Basic but most useful.
When this is enabled , u dun need apps like Juice defender or DS battery saver
TIP NO. 2 - DO NOT USE ANY APP KILLERS OR TASK MANAGERS
Most of us use task manager to kill apps running the background regularly.
But we may notice that most of the apps killed by task managers get restarted by themselves.
Thus all these app killers continue to drain battery and do the same thing all around,
These app killers will also make your phone laggy to some extent because of poor ram management
TIP NO. 3 - UNDERCLOCK
If u use your xperia only for basic purposes such as messaging and calls then there is no problem in underclocking.
800Mhz would be fine wid minimum or no performance glitches.
This not only relives strain on cpu but saves battery.
I myself have underclocked this and belive me 800mhz does not affects the performace of most of the games(if u play)
TIP NO. 4 - USE GOVERNORS
There is no defination for governors but u can say these are the engines that control the cpu frequency time to time
There are several governors present most commonly used being ondemandx , conservative and powersave.
1: OnDemand Governor:
This governor has a hair trigger for boosting clockspeed to the maximum speed set by the user. If the CPU load placed by the user abates, the OnDemand governor will slowly step back down through the kernel's frequency steppings until it settles at the lowest possible frequency, or the user executes another task to demand a ramp.
2: Performance Governor:
This locks the phone's CPU at maximum frequency. While this may sound like an ugly idea, there is growing evidence to suggest that running a phone at its maximum frequency at all times will allow a faster race-to-idle.
3: Powersave Governor:
The opposite of the Performance governor, the Powersave governor locks the CPU frequency at the lowest frequency set by the user.
4: Conservative:
A slower Ondemand which scales up slowly to save battery. The conservative governor is based on the ondemand governor. It functions like the Ondemand governor by dynamically adjusting frequencies based on processor utilization. However, the conservative governor increases and decreases CPU speed more gradually.
go to this page to know more about governors
http://androidforums.com/xperia-mini-all-things-root/513426-android-cpu-governors-explained.html
For setting up governors (if installed) and underclocking use a free app like Antutu Cpu Master (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antutu.CpuMasterFree&hl=en )
here are the governors for Xperia U only
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934749&highlight=governor ( thanks to AnDyX )
TIP NO. 5 - DON'T INSTALL APPS UNNECESSARILY
This does not needs an explanation. Just remember that when apps run in background , they consume battery. More the number of unnecessary apps running, the more faster is the battery drain.
Keep only those apps which u use frequently and if u are a rooted user, delete all bloatwares, FREEZE GMAPS AND TIMESCAPE IF U DUN USE IT.
TIP NO. 6 - CHOOSE NETWORK MODE AS PER YOUR NEED
Whether you are using WCDMA or GSM network or WCDMA/GSM , choose it as per your need.
If u are on the internet only for surfing then use GSM mode and switch to WCDMA only if u need to download.
This as per my usage has the greatest impact on battery life.
to select network mode , go to settings>more>mobile networks>network mode
While surfing only (xda ) i use opera mini app wid GSM mode enabled and its very fast .
TIP NO. 7 -SHUTDOWN ONE OF THE CORES USING AN APP "XCORE"
An app by xda member blievenhack can switch one of the 2 cores off thus saving battery
Thanks to blievanhack for app and jonathan for letting me know
Here is the post link for xperia xcore
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057314
P.S. - charging your battery only when it is about to get exhausted belongs to old school now. Charge whenever u can charge
NONE OF THESE TIPS REQUIRES SOMETHING SPECIAL OR TECHNICAL TRY THEM AND U WILL DEFINATELY FEEL THE DIFFERENCE
I hope you like my guide, its not copy pasted , its not stolen from someone, its purely my experience.
If u find any discrepancy plz let me know.
Feel free to share your tips here and discuss your experience
Set refresh-time of app (e.g weather and news apps) to an reasonable value.
It does not make sence to update a weather widget every 5 minutes
You could also use xcore xperia. Most of the time you don't need that second core.

And you don't lose your connection? Hotplug-Govenor does the same and wenn you enable it u get network drop on SXP

I haven't noticed any drawback aside from a slight lag in cpu hungry apps. Network continues to work just fine on my p.
a good guide for all..........
Settings>Devs Options>BG process limit>2 or 3
This will use less ram and hopefully increase battery
:beer:
thanks for the guide. .
Extended Standby is good but breaks apps like Cerberus or any other internet based tracking system.
Re: {tips} [save battery] {all xperias}
I think our nxt series already has d hotplugging logic so wats d point in using xcore..
I dont intend to demotivate d developer bt I didnt experience any noticable change in battery wid xcore..
And imo if we jst use a suitable governor we can save significant amount of battery..
Plz correct me if Im wrong anywhere Im still a newbie here..

Hi guys! Used to have my phone had problems with the transition into deep sleep mode. I often tune but it often does not work, or bring a temporary result. I will advise you to use the program Deep Sleep Battery Saver Pro. When I started using this program , I felt the result. Phone began to sleep well. Saving battery was palpable.
Well, should be interesting to tell us what improvement you made with those settings.

make us of profiles

Hi
Installed custom rom and battery life is way better but still want to make best use of it and each time before turning screen off need to turn wifi of + turn power saver on + turn data off etc...so to make the life easier found some schedulers (profile scheduler, smart profiles)but all of the lack power saver option.
Any one can recommend "better" scheduler with ex widget who can manage those things
Thanks
Hi, I do not think you can control the S3 inbuilt powersaving with TASKER since it is not generic to android.
But this may help:

[Q] One Power Guard

Has anybody with a Note 2 tried the One Power Guard? I'm rooted running Scott's Clean ROM Verizon Special Edition, with the kernel that comes with the ROM. While I have had no issues with my battery, I figure it's always better to use less battery, right?
Questions for users: does the phone seem to run any slower? Are there any lag issues? Do you switch modes frequently or does the AI mode seem to do the job well? Since this app seems to base most of it's settings off the min and max frequency, are there any settings in my ROM I should change relating the processor frequency before installing? Would it be more effective than just using the "Power Save Mode" that Samsung has included?

Don't worry about your phone lag.
3 way can make it run well.
1. Change other IO until it is the best
2. Make higher CPU frequencies.
3. Change other CPU governors such as: "powersave" more lag than "ondemand"
so try to change some settings until your phone run the best.

I'm now on Criskelo the great ROM, having good battery but I wanna squeeze it even more (ie. save more juice!)
Then I found One Power Guard yesterday, and installed it. Running on default (AI mode), I notice it's draining battery even more so, I wonder why?
Anyone notice this issue?

One power guard VS build-in power saving mode?
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda app-developers app
Always looking for a way to save the precious battery in the S Advance which imho is too small for the device. Will give this a go and report on after a few days. Thanks for the share
I just wondering...s advance use its build in power saving mode, which is i dunno what it set just 200 to max cpu 800 i guess..
If i use one power guard, do i have to enable or disable the power saving mode? Coz i see its control the cpu to 800 or 1000 if not using it, and i already try if i use cpu app to make the cpu goes below 800, the cpu cant go down...the max is still 800 or 1000

the power saving mode only show your current cpu freq. you need to set your cpu freq. so if you want to disable the power saving mode, you can change other mode or reboot.

U mean the one power guard mode right?
No...not that, galaxy s advance have its own power saving mode <- this is what i mean, not your power saving mode in the app...
Anyway, s advance use Novathor chipset....will this app work? I see its working for older samsung phone, but i dont see any different in s advance (maybe different chipset)
