Ok I didnt know if it was just me or if it happens. Anyway to make an apk for what your doing instead of a script. That way it will have to wait for phone to boot to use su. Kinda like set CPU?
Sent from my sexy assistant. (HTC Incredible.)
Well, I would love to do that. My knowledge of Java is very little, at the moment. I'm working on it and within a few months, I hope to have something solid. But for now, the script is working just fine I think
Also, the app would still handle voltages the same way - dropping a file in init.d that loads upon startup. This sleep thing was on my list of to-do's and I forgot to look into it with everything else I've been trying to improve. When I do incorporate it, I am going to be looking to you to test it
I hope you remember your voltages that cause the boot loop when you rebooted so you can test this again for me!
I can test as well. When I applied the -75 my phone would boot loop from 2 to 10 times randomly before it would go into the OS then it would run fine with excellent battery life. rebooting was a PITA though.

always down to be a guinea pig.
i do remember what i was running 825/900. it was running perfictily till i turned my phone off to go to bed and when i woke up it just boot looped. luckily i dl you revert zip and had it in a folder. can never be to paranoid, oh i mean careful.
Ah, understood.

LOL, yeah, it's good to keep the reset .zip handy. I should have another build out tonight and I will try to incorporate this sleep feature into the init.d script. I think I'm going to call the next release v3 beta RC2 because I have the whole interface redone, some new code, and initial support for the Nexus S and Nexus S 4G

dam man. you are to good. cant wait to see what you come up with next.
I'm always looking for new ideas! So if you have any, feel free to contribute.
Some future plans include:
- Set a different user selectable governor for screen off AND screen on
(eg. powersave when screen off, ondemand when screen on)
- CPU control (no more need for SetCPU)
- Support more phones
- Turn this into an app
Among some other things

LOL that pretty much said it all. it would be sick if this was an app like set cpu but total on the fly voltage control. one stop shop for everything you know. keep up the good work though. this is the first time im seeing the user being able to tweek there kernel to the best for the phone other then just whats good for the community.
Exactly! And that was my goal, make YOUR phone run as good as it can.
And I gave the idea to the guy from SetCPU to just incorporate voltages into his code and whatnot but he never responded.
Maybe he got an iphone.
maybe talk to the CM gods. they made there own set cpu for there ASOP rom. maybe you have have them help you incorporate your idea into it and have an apk so other roms can use it.

LOL
Good idea, however, I want to try this on my own so I can learn and code it from scratch. Watch things fail, learn how it should work, fit it - you know what I mean
Did you ever have enough testers for the Sense-based kernels(w/ sysfs) to determine if your script would help their overall battery performance?
Not many people have posted about their battery life in here (not sure why?) but any undervolting you can do will help you
Any chance you could have a look at ziggy's last dINC kernel release from April 10th and see if they include the needed sysfs interface your mod needs? Would like to give this a shot over the weekend w/ the most recent ziggy kernel that your mod would work with.
Cool, I'll load it up when I have time and post a update after 4-5 days. Thanks for the confirmation. =]Yeah, he has it in there. Should work just fine
Thank you so much for this. I have flashed your mods before but this is a whole new level.

5Hey everyone, welcome to viperMOD for the EVO, Incredible, Nexus One, Desire GSM, Thunderbolt, Nexus S, Nexus S 4G, Desire HD, and Inspire 4G. Many people are having great success with this mod and I hope you enjoy my work
I would like to turn this into an app! If someone would like to help out that has Java knowledge, please contact me!
What does this do?
Kernel developers make their kernels to be "universal". By universal, they want the kernel to work on as many phones as possible so they may only mildly undervolt. However, some phones can handle a more aggressive undervolt. Some can't. viperMOD allows you to undervolt to your choosing for better battery life or allow you to overvolt to make your phone more stable.
How do I run this?
Once you flash the .zip go into your Terminal app (I use Android Terminal Emulator set to 10pt font) and type:
su
vipermod
I really only use Terminal for my mod and there is something really cool you can do with Android Terminal Emulator (and maybe others). Menu > Preferences > Initial Command > Press Enter and type su > Press Enter again and type vipermod
Every time you start Terminal now, it will open right into viperMOD. You can quickly exit by pressing Enter if you need to use Terminal for something else

[Q] Will this work on Sense kernels?
[A] Technically, yes. None of the current Sense kernels support the sysfs interface but a few of ziggy's old kernels do. I don't know if anyone still runs his kernels but if you do and you want to see it supported, please contact me. You can also compile your own 2.6.32 Sense kernel and build in the sysfs interface. To do so, please read here (thanks chad0989!)1
I only really saw one post about voltages in there. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. If you can find a link, lemme take a look and I can tell you what the differences are in terms of voltages.1
Look at the post right above you.
The script in Chad's thread is done differently than I did mine. Let me explain. Take a look at what I have here below...
dccoh's script sets EVERY clock speed to a certain voltage. My Insane script says lower all voltages of the kernel you're using by 100mV and also set these certain clock speeds to these parameters. Everything after 537mhz is 100mV below the stock kernel voltages.
You can see that there are variations in voltages so for some my script might work better and for others dccoh's might work better. All in all, the best thing you can do is try it out. It's hard to say what is going to work better for you since every device is different. I hope this makes sense.1man im having a rough time. none of the UVs work on my phone.. -100 down to -25. even on -25 my phone hangs then bootloops. im on chads latest. running setcpu 1113max 128min, is it just my phone? any ideas or input would be great. id love to squeeze a lil more juice out of this thing
It's just your phone Chad's kernels are already undervolted and some phones can handle more undervolting and come can't. Sorry dude.
Glad it's working for you
