Setcpu profiles

Are profiles necessary to preserve battery life? If sohow should my profiles be set?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I get much better battery life without using any profiles... screen off profiles make the phone lag. I'm squeezing a good 18 hours out of my phone, and I am a HEAVY texter. No profiles - ondemand governor - stock clock settings at 806MHz

Running 1.5 ghz
im running 1.5ghz

I've found battery to be better without profiles. Just make sure you have setcpu set to on demand. I'm running CM 6.1.1, 1209/346 on demand for set cpu. I'm getting about 18 hours with moderate to heavy use of music and data.
Would agree that screen off profiles aren't that great (and really aren't that necessary). I've had issues with answering calls or the phone being laggy when the phone wakes.

It's kind of controversial. Depends on the governor, scheduler, etc. You either trust the system to be smart enough to wind itself down with the screen off, or you don't.
I think you'll find that even when you overclock, your CPU shouldn't spend THAT much time at the higher frequencies...

I'm running 1.5mhz and use a screen off profile on 386mhz.
Get much better battery out of it when using this!!!
Without the profile, i have 9 hours of batterylife. Now i'm having around 14 hours...
Just try it and see what's best for you

What gov. are you using? I know some need profiles but ones like the interactive governor don't and actually perform worse with profiles. I'd always set a temp profile though - you don't want to go iPhone on something and set it on fire.

Im running the CyanogenMod 6.1.1 ROM with Pershoot 1.516GHZ kernel on my G2. I have my setcpu profiles setup as below (recommended by another G2 user from another forum):

Anyone notice any possible issues with these profiles?

OC settings in bootloader menu

Hi guys
I run Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC0 at stock frequency (1ghz), but would like to go higher (~1.2 ghz). What are your settings, and do you have any recommendations to other settings than core frequency?
thansk in advance

Mine is 300 MHz at 20 Vsel, 600 MHz at 32 Vsel, 1200 MHz at 60 Vsel, but when I play games it seems to be unstable, so when I need more power productivity I put it to 80 Vsel.

1ghz is not stock . 800 is

Well.. 1 Ghz IS stock for cyanogen 7.1 rc0... Anyways, I cranked it up to 1.2 with vsel 62. does anyone have better settings?

on 2.14.401.1 I was getting around 1940 points with 806mhz oc and new adreno libs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539281), but the new score is good enough for me.
P.S. this kernel is stock (without swap, ext..., etc). If you want more space on your phone, I advise to use SystemCleanup from GooglePlay (you can long press on any system app and choose "update system app" for any stock app, EXCEPT for updated HTC clock widget - it will break it). If you need other frequency... tough luck, you have to do it yourself (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500419)

Default setting is 480-800Mhz Ondemand Deadline ?

Wifi doesn't work on mine with this kernel!!

On my device everything works.

not working for me

Wifi is not working or whole kernel ? Do you have 2.26.401.3 version ?

if the phone is not loading after flashing, either you did not install 2.26 update or your phone does not support overclocking to 806Mhz. Kernel is bare stock, so all stock functions will work.

Rioachim, default setting is 480-800 Ondemand deadline ?

Yes, 480-806 ondemand, but it goes to 245 in sleep and also has htc stock perflock driver which I noticed it increases out-of-sleep response without affecting battery as much as smartass (personal opinion only)

then you are the unlucky owner of a lazy Wildfire S

Not impressed at all.
First of all, to any that were complaining their WiFi broke after applying this kernel, mine works just fine. That is the (only) good news.
The kernel itself isn't that useful. You've got a LIMITED amount of frequencies (19 Mhz? For real?) The only overclocked speed is 806Mhz. And finally, when I set CPU options with No-Frills, the settings don't stick (in fact, they are translated wrong.) I pick 600 Mhz max, but the kernel runs at 806 Mhz max. (wtf?)
This kernel might be good for some phone, but not our Wildfire S.

Soon, marvel will be part of the cm project. So, a new working kernel will be around.

Come on, this is STOCK kernel. (which has perflock and NO settings = SetCPU does NOT work, as in original kernel).
This kernel is not for you, it's for people which have better things to do than trying frequencies/governors (kernel only has top speed modified from 600Mhz to 806Mhz, that's all!!!).

my phone is not working with this kernel.. i need to flash a new ROM now

[Q] find a suiteable over/underclock app?

Well, I am rooted and on cyanogenmod 10.1..
If I understand corrrctly, you can underclock the device with just an app?
If so, what app can I use (considering its DHD rooted with CyanogenMod 10.1)?

Ace OC tool!

Also try antutu cpu master.

I think the reason I like the Andrev OC Daemon is because you can automate it to use a lower CPU setting when in deep sleep.
For example, when the screen is on, you can set the max CPU to 1.2 MHz, and set it to reduce this to 256 KHz when you lock your phone.
So easy to use, and the battery lasts an incredible duration longer. I've had 0% decrease in battery for the past 2 hours with the phone on, but on standby.
Highly recommended.

Sorry if i misunderstood, but there are performance settings in Settings menu of CM 10.1.So i have set max CPU frequency to 806 MHz and min to 149 MHz and marked "set on boot". Isn't it underclocking ? Off course you can't undervolt the CPU, but he asks just to underclock.

Yes, that would be underclocking, which has shown results in battery improvements. Essentially, you are trading speed for battery life and its all about getting the balance right.
Obviously, when the screen is turned off, and the phone is inactive, you do not need the CPU to hit heights of 806 MHz, which is where Andrev OC Daemon comes in..
You can set it so that the phone uses up to 806 MHz when active, yet not exceed 149 MHz when the screen is inactive.
I have seen VAST improvements in my battery life using this OC/UC tool.
And I really can't over-exaggerate the 'vast' in that sentence..

[Q] CPU frequency not sticking

I have been using setCPU for a while and have noticed that the speed never sticks. I try to limit it to 1200 and the minimum to 102, but it changes it automatically to 1500 and 51 mhz. How do I get it to stick?

You will need a custom kernel for this...
The Stock one just isn't gonna let you do that.
