I know Voltage Control doesn't work with some ROMS but how would you know? Would it just get you an error message or something? I guess how do you know your phone is actually applying those voltage settings besides the Voltage Control app telling you?
Voltage control settings
- Thread starter cwd500
- Start date
Nevermind. I just found out after Flashing to Evil Fascination 3.5 that the Kernel is incompatable as soon as you launch Voltage Control.
You could set the voltage way down and see if you get a sleep of death or it restarts. If it does, chances are that it's controlling.
FYI: If not already mentioned.. There is an option that installs with OTB v1.3 kernel... that the boot voltage options can be cleared in CWM..
"OTB-Reloaded TouchWiz ver 1.3 - Changes include added security, cwm3 updated with option to delete voltage control settings, change back to sio as default i/o scheduler, voltage changes for 1500 and 1600 mhz. Drop dvsint volts back to stock level. For complete information check my git"

It's not ROMs that it's incompatible with, it's the kernel, if you switched to nemesis2all, or times_infinity kernel, you should be able to use voltage control, even on the evil fascination ROM.
Did you make any other changes to Root System Tools? I downloaded the free version and only set my governor as conservative. I suppose I could have done the same through SetCPU, since I bought that earlier.
I'm going to try out your settings and see if I can be as cool as you
Edit: Since adopting these settings, SeePU shows my ... CPU running full-bore since applying these settings. Gonna go another route.

Just an FYI... I have been using this setting for about a week now (with the OTB 1.3 kernel) and battery has been unreal.... getting anywhere from 24 to 36 hours on a single charge with moderate to heavy usage. As of right now... I currently have 73% battery left with 9+ hours of usage:
Biggest piece of advice - YOU WILL NOT NOTICE INSTANT RESULTS. You really need to give it 2 or 3 days with a full charge... drain... full charge... drain.... before you notice anything (wipe bstats after the first full charge)
update
I took it off the charger at 3AM with 97% charge. I was up at7:30, checked email, checked the forecast several times today, browsed the web moderately, took a couple calls made a couple. Its 7:55 and I am still at 71%. No SOD or problems at all.

Question for those of you who alter settings above 1000 MHz: Are you raising the clock limit ceiling? Otherwise, isn't it useless to touch those if you're backstopped w/ 1000 MHz? I'm not trying to burst your bubble, I've just noticed a lot of that. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I would love to see a screenshot or two of your setup on the Voltage Setting Program. I know you posted the variables but there are other settings too I'd like to see how you have them set.

1. Schedule Setting
2. What you have the Limit Clock To Set at
3. What options you have selected under States
4. For the Voltage options you don't tweak, do you keep them at 0?

You don't have any other processes running ever other than those 3? No texting, games, browser, etc? No wonder you get amazing batt life lol
I actually went back to ComaVolt, it's been the best with my phone so far of all the ones I try
I use browser, messaging, Facebook, twitter etc... all day

i thought so too, but I checked one for each voltage I altered.... I figured the worst that would happen is that it would freeze up and then I could just uncheck them and reboot
PS.... the thing that eats my battery the most is voice calls
