if you save as boot it will otherwise u will have to change it everytime after reboots..
Make sure you know that the voltage works properly on your phone before setting on boot settings...

and how do i know it works properly? by it still being as stable as before it was uv?
Im running Urban Regeneration 1.1.1
my settings on the Voltage Control App are:
cfq
1200/ -25
1120/ -50
1000/ -50
800/ -75
600/ -75
400/ -75
200/ -100
100/ -100
are these safe? this is the first time i tried this

well just use them for awhile and see if you get any freezes or sleep of deaths or what not and if not then set them on boot

thanks a bunch. do mines sound good though?

You can't compare to other users' settings. Thay are different on almost every Epic. Our phones our odd that way. You have to test what works for you.

Voltage Control.

I have a problem now ... Last night, i left it on 70% .. and when i woke up, i found it dead -__- ... is this due to the voltage control? or my rom?

Probably your voltage control settings. However, to rule out other possible issues run without undervolting and replicate the situation that caused your phone to die. If it dies again something else was the problem. If it doesn't, then it was your uv setup

Thanks .. I uninstalled the app this morning ad am gunna see how it treats the battery tonight.

SetCPU

currently i have setCPU running on my rooted Dinc with several profiles set.........my question is what is the optimum settings for:
Sampling Rate
Up threshold
ignore Nice load
Powersave bias
mine currently are 40000,70,0,0
i'm trying to find a good setting for best battery life b/c i'm constitenly on my phone all day!!!
thanks for any input.....
What kernal r u running? Several recommend no profiles, and oc will run the battery down.

yea i did, i read somewhere on here that the "perflock" has to be disabled when using a stock kernal and running froyo, any truth to that ??? and a friend of mine has an incredible and he told me that these mods really don't make that much of a difference, now he's a verizon sales rep so he may be telling me that so i don't change my phone too much

generally speaking there are two types of people who are employees for phone companies:
A) someone who just wants a paycheck
B) geeks like us who like to hack and mod and tinker
A will tell you that hacking will void warranty, blah blah blah....mostly because they don't know much about what stuff is. B will tell you what they know, and admit when they don't know something.
it sounds like your friend is falling into the A category, especially if they're saying "mods don't change much". they change quite a bit, so be careful.
as far as your question in the OP, with my eris i would just mess with stuff, and see how the phone runs. don't save to run at boot until you know it's stable and will not crash or freeze your phone. adjust settings, and see how it responds, repeat as necessary.

where can i get that kernel ??
Yes you have to disable perflock.
I only adjusted my power bias to 650 I think which is 65%. 1000 being 100% and 10 being 1%. All this does is make sure you cpu stays on the lower end of the usage. I have a 2150 and stream pandora a lot and always have 3g running, I go online and everything and I get 2 days of usage with a down clock and some profiles.

[Q] good overclock tool?

can anyone suggest a good overclock tool with voltage parameters? setcpu doesn't seem to have one for the play... and antutu seems bugged when setting voltages... (keeps changing the value for 1300mhz to 1300mv)

I'm using Antutu CPU Master Pro and I don't find it buggy. This is better to use imo than setcpu which consumes more battery. Longpress the frequency you are in and using then set to -25mv. Tick on "set on boot" then click "apply". Reboot your phone and check again your settings if it was changed or not. Also, try to reinstall your overclocking app and clear some cache on your phone.

i do agree that antutu is very good... but the problems started when i updated to 2.5... i was using 2.3 before
is -25 the lowest it can go??? isnt -50 safe?
EDIT: also in 2.5 it keeps saying that it has been granted superuser permissions... in 2.3 it only does that whenever i change any setting...
I use OC/UV Beater2v1.7, and it's awesome! Unlike setcpu, it won't run in the background, but rather sets up scripts in init.d (don't set as permanent unless you're 100% sure of your OC/UV settings, otherwise bootloops can occur)

I use 2.3.1 version. I tried -50 on setcpu and it crashed my phone. Haven't tried -50 yet on Antutu. I rolled back my speed from 1.5ghz to around 900+mhz as the speed is still fast (btw im using T.E.A.M. rom).

[Q] Stock Phone doesn't use 192 Mhz clock speed

So I know a lot of us don't use stock here, but my gf likes her phone stock so I had recently debloated her phone. I started to notice that her phone didn't spend anytime in the 192 Mhz clock speed. I tried using setCPU to change the min/max but to no avail. So my question is, is this stock kernel behavior or did I screw up somewhere?

One X keeps overheating

Hi!
It's the summer where I live and it's like above 40°C in my appartment (Yeah, I've a free sauna, jealous?), and this cause my One X to overheat all the time, I'm not even doing "heavy" stuff, just browsing the Internet or Facebook via Wifi, I already tried to slow down the CPU to 1200Mhz but it is still very hot, is there a solution to avoid this issue (apart from "DON'T TOUCH IT!"), I can't believe that Taiwan is a cold country and that the HTC was not made to work at 40°C...
You can see my ROM and Kernel above this message (signature) I'm trying to install Viper ROM to see if it fixes the issue... :fingers-crossed:
Nevermind, I fixed it, I used wrong voltage and too low down threshold value in SetCPU which caused the CPU to overheat and stand longer activated, silly me

Could you tell us what configuration you're using? I'm kinda having the same problem.

Wow, what a up !
Seriously though, I'm not using my HTC One X anymore, but last time I used it, I used Faux kernel with -100 uV and some Ondemand governor tweaks (mostly to lower frequencies at as state that is just above lags) and it was running lagfree and a lot cooler than stock, but I hope you don't mind loosing a bit of 3D perf...

Unable to stick at lower CPU freq

I am currently using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2306650 , but i doubt its the rom fault.
Using the MIUI settings, Antutu CPU master, or ROM ToolBox, applying a lower CPU max freq will not stick.
Ex: The max is 1890mhz, but i want it at 1566mhz for the max. After turning the phone off and on, the max CPU freq. goes back to the original 1890mhz. With a reboot, it sticks, half the time.
What do i do? Please reply ASAP, my S4 gets hot while playing games so i like to underclock it.
With many years of experience, the best thing I can tell you is to not place a MHz cap that is too high. Your phone can potentially be a potato if you're not careful.

SetCPU has different profiles to configure. And which ROM are you on? There might be an init.d script adjusting the frequencies. SetCPU will apply them AFTER any init.d scripts are ran so that should fix it. I loved SetCPU till ktoonsez made his own app.

How do i check the script if it is?
Meh, till i figure that out, time to use SetCPU. I MUCH prefer Antutu Cpu Master Pro, a profile for overheating? Hell yes, i set mine to 1.2ghz at 105 degrees F. and 1.5/1.6ghz when its normal. Helped ALOT

Oh darn. It worked for a bit. Now instead of going back to normal max frequency after a reboot or boot up, it does it when I'm using the phone.
Does PAC ROM have this issue? If not, I'll use pac rom instead. Or it may be a kernel problem? Idk much about android stuff

Sounds like the kernel is overriding certain things in different scenarios. I'd try a different kernel.
