I'm sorry if anyone have ever talk about it, but I'm searching here for 10 days and nothing!
Tree simple Questions:
- Does Smartreflex works in PR 1.3?
- Any effect in battery life (i know that I cant OC to high)
- If it's available. What's the best activation method?
Tks in Advance...
- Yes it works with pr1.3
- Battery life is increased a shitload, it is the most important thing to use to save power (besides altering your behavior).
- To activate edit your kernel power profile (under ~/.kernel), you will see an option in there that switches it on.
With SR you will only be able to OC up to 805MHz, although I feel that is ample speed.

Just a sec.. I know there is a SmartReflex vdd1 and vdd2. I have to enable both?

I have them both enabled just in case. Incrementally experiment and see for yourself.

My impression is that it causes reboots for the majority of users. It did for me, but that was a long time ago.

Any advice about the GOVERNOR, IGNORE_NICE_LOAD, UP_THRESHOLD, SAMPLING_RATE or POWERSAVE_BIAS?
I'm working with the "ideal" profile values...

For me ideal profile/500,805 works like a charm!

GOVERNOR
Leave as ondemand, remove some of the unneeded frequencys (i.e. 550MHz, whatever, etc)
IGNORE_NICE_LOAD
Set to 1, this stops cpu upspeed for background services
UP_THRESHOLD
Dictates what % CPU being used before increasing clock speed (I have mine at 75)
SAMPLING_RATE
Leave as is
POWERSAVE_BIAS?
Leave as is.

Count me in the people who suffer corruption and reboots with SmartReflex enabled, even with stock speed and voltage.
