Set cpu question - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Which set cpu scaling govenor works like stock? I never knew the difference between all the options.

On demand is stock
Conservative is basically like stock but will help battery life
Performance keeps it running at max always
I powersave keeps it at minimum that's all I really know

Question regarding Setcpu scaling

The speed is scaling from min to max constantly, even if I am not touching the phone. Is this normal?
I am currently on CM6.
Also, I just came from a Sprint Hero with CM6 and Setcpu and the speed would stay at the min setting until I touched the screen, in which it would scale upwards.
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!!
If you are using a scaling governor like ondemand or interactive, then yes, your CPU speed will dynamically adjust based on workload. As for the governor not adjusting until you click on it, that's a bug with SetCPU. SetCPU 2.0.3 just came out which should fix that.

CPU Tuner

Hi there. Wanna check here, can we set the CPU power(minimum) to the lowest? I mean will there be any "side effects"?
Because previously before I update my CPU Tuner to the latest, the minimum CPU i can check them(by Default) is minimum 422MHz. But after updating to the latest, I realised now I can make it lower to 245MHz in this custom ROM of LeeDroid that I am previously and currently using. Same ROM before and after the updates.
Any possible side effects? =)
No side effects I'm running on 245max and powersave governor profile when screen off.

Alright. Thanks dude!
Oh yes, those governors seems to changed. No more Smartass etc.
Only Full Speed, Normal, Save Battery and Extreme Save Battery. If for interactive, day to day usage, I suppose we use "Normal" governor? Is Normal similar to that of Smartass?

Minimum cpu frequency

I am running Bionic cow v7.
Why the minimum clock speed is set to 245Mhz instead of 122Mhz?
Shouldn't setting it to 122Mhz saving a lot of battering while idle?
You can set it as you like using setcpu. It depends on you. Cause default setting is always set to 245mhz.

Yes I know, I am actually using No-frills CPU Control that is free.
I was hoping somebody already did a benchmark to see how changing that setting affects the performances and the battery

Which CPU gorvernor do you use, and why?

Title says all.
I just want to know which gorvernors are you using, and for what reason?

I use Scary and Smartassv2. They both scale perfectly depending on how much clock is really needed.
smartassv2 and on demand, but the better is to see a list to explain each cpu governor and see what do you need

[Q] Any recommended kernel settings for Jedi? X17 with SaberKernel 38.1

Does anyone have any recommended kernel settings they'd like to share? I've been changing things around a little but I'm too afraid to make any big differences as I don't want to ruin anything. Any recommended GPU clock settings would also be appreciated!
Also, I see people mentioning they're overclocking their phone a lot. Does overclocking on this phone mean it constantly stays overclocked until you change the settings back or does it change frequencies as needed to a maximum frequency that you set?

Hey When you OC lets say to 1800mhz . That means your proccesor can Amp up to 1800 mhz if needed. Your phone will always idle when its a sleep. My setting are 100mhz UC and 1800mhz OC. Gpu is also Oc to 640mhz. I use pegasusq for governor and cfq or zen for scheduler. I also use eco mode . I get very good battery life and performance.
Also...what apps are you guy using for this? Seems most use trickster... Wondering if anyone has experience with others.

I would use whatever the developer of your rom/kernel recommends (which is Trickster most of the time)
Anyone know what eco mode does? I've been looking it up but all I've been getting is this guy's kernel that he named 'eco'
Also, for anyone reading this thread with a similar question to mine I'd heavily recommend using Zen over CFQ as a scheduler because it's much smoother and no jitters/stutters (at least in my experience)

I'm curious what Eco does as well. Tried looking it up, but didn't find anything useful.
Trying out Zen...been getting some annoying hangups and jitters with this kernal. UC 100 OC 1704. And FYI...I've used the stock clocks and still got the same lag and lockups and screen freezes. Also tried on demand gov.
Could it be that ZRAM is enabled? Not quite sure the benefits of it.

Do you have eco mode enabled? Also, maybe you should look into Seeder. It sounds like it's perfect for the kind of problems you're having. Or you could change your minimum voltage from 100 to 200, I heard 100 can be kind of buggy sometimes
