they change how quickly the processor cycles up and how high it goes and how long it stays there

thanks for the link
I noticed power save makes the evo lag like crazy regardless what the cpu speed is. Conservative seems to run where power save fails. Anyone else experience major lag on power save?

Powersave sets your clock speed at the minimum, just like performance sets it at the maximum. Of course it's going to lag when your phone is running at a constant 245mhz.

Thanks! So, for power saving which gov is the best without lag? Ondemand/conservative/smartass?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Not really sure about that. I know conservative will save more over on demand, not sure about smartass. I use smartass, it's been good to me. I have great battery life and no lag, ever.

As topic title suggests what are the best SetCPU settings for this phone (running ARHD 3.0), I'm new to SetCPU and the whole overclocking part of android (not new to android, i've been coming here and rooting etc since the G1 lol). Anyway just wondering if anyone has got any good setups/profiles they wish to share?
At the minute I just have my max at maximum and min at minimum with on demand scaling, nothing else. Any help is appreciated guys, thanks.
I use 245-1032mhz and smartass or interactive governor and I don't use any profiles because smartass locks the cpu @ 245 mhz when the display is turned off

Tried these settings for a day now and really like them, had the same min and max but with on demand, smartass has definitely been giving me better battery over the course of today.

Yes, smartass is nice. Especially since you don't need an extra "display off" profile. It sets CPU to 254 MHz automatically once the display is off.
That reminds me, is it just me or is adjusting the frequency/temperature etc settings on those sliders a pain in the a**? It'd be much easier if you could enter the digits using the keyboard instead of those sliders. Often the view is blocked by your own hand and setting exact values is almost impossible anyway.

I find On-Demand with a 460max / 245min screen-off profile works far better then Smartass with no profile as 245max caused wake lag for me + music player and Last.fm radio were stuttery when screen was off.
I do agree with your second point

A tip for your hand getting in the way: touch the slider with finger/thumb and slide ur finger/thumb down the screen a bit and then you'll see that then when sliding left or right its like your still on the bar but you can now see what your doing!

I've just installed SetCPU for the first time. Set to smartass and left as 245 and 1036 as set by LeeDroid ROM/Kernel.
Will this increase battery life as opposed to not having Set CPU installed and leaving it as stock?

I find smartass does a better job at reducing the cpu when it's not needed which in turn increases the battery life
I have an oc kernel and was wondering what the safest and best setting to put CPU at on cm7. On demand, smart ass, interactive, conservative, etc. I'm looking for a good balance of speed and battery life. What is smart ass setting anyway? Thanks xda gods!

I don't know who makes OC Kernel but alot of people use Smartass on these forums. It comes with a built-in screen off profile to save battery life. Im using Tiamat4.0.2 on CM7 nightly #70 and my SetCPU profile is smartass with 128min/537max. I get NO lag whatsoever. You could just play around with the governors and min/max until you find whats smooth for your phone.
Hey guys, i got cyanogen mod 7.2 installed on my phone, and whenever i tried to change the max cpu speed from the settings, it would now work after boot. Most of the market programs i use freeze as soon as i try to apply my changes. I got "No-frills Cpu control" to work once, so i made it 844 max clock speed. (I confirm using android system info app"). EDIT: after another frozen reboot, the clock speed has gone back down to 787 again -_- . So frustrating!!
So i was wondering, which app do you use to overclock your gio that doesnt freeze?

Which is the best governor for gaming performance?
Performance or smartass v2
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
For performance the best governor is "performance". It causes that processor overclocking is always the highest. It means that if you have overclcked processor at 921MHz, with this governor phone will always work at 921MHz. But don't use it, it drains battery as hell
The best governor for daily use is SmartassV2, because it's balance between performance and battery
And sorry for my English :|
Na szczęście jest TapaTalk
which 1 is best for daily uses????
i am using smartassv2 but sometimes my phone becomes very very slow takes 1mint to slide the status bar phone apps etc.....
what is i/o schedular??? is it effect the speed?? which 1 is best???
Now I just use the On demand governor. Smartassv2 drains my battery pretty fast

Yup,any overclock will drain your battery quicker,this is very logical as you consume more power,right?I use No Frills CPU control,and i have my galaxy Gio set to 921 Mhz....! It realy works like asmall little pocket rocket now...I was already very satisfied with the price/performance ratio of this cheap little phone,but now with this stable OC it really hits it out of the park!!!No complaints from me about this phone..I'm gonna try and achieve an even higher oc,but it's really not a must,just want to know how far i can push it.No Frills has a benchmarker impemented ,very handy.

That's true. But smartass is just like balance between perfomance and battery drain, which makes it the best governor
I am planning on installing a custom Rom and kernel on my HTC One V. The cm10 Rom, with Titanium KISS overclocking kernel to 1.5Ghz. My question is; has anyone noticed much of a performance increase from overclocking? Did your benchmark results improve much etc?
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
The performance improves like hell, but I don't keep it over clocked all the time to 1.5. Generally, for me even 1.2 or 1.4 brings changes in overall performance. If your phone freezes on 1.5, then your pocesser isn't capable of handling it. So always over clock with care

I am running my One V at a 1.9Ghz overclock, and I see VERY little difference in battery life vs no overclock.
As long as you are using a sensible cpu scheduler (i use lionheart), and not using apps that burn through as much cpu cycles as possible, your battery life should not be affected much. The Screen and Wifi use far more battery

If you'll read my post, you'll see that includes web surfing, some on 3g, some on wifi. Kinda hard to do with the net shut off. And for the record, I dont use Whastup, Facebook, Twitter or any other social networking apps. I also use Autostarts to control the autorun permissions of my apps and the back button to kill them when I'm done. Nothing runs on my phone unless I want it to. Control your phone, don't let it control you.

I ran at 1.7 for a while with no problems, scaled it back to 1.5, didn't notice a big difference on the battery life before or after modding my speed. It's mostly the apps your using or network I find that drain your battery, not your cpu speed.
Overclocking Apps?

I use setcpu its my favorite works perfect and lots of features, u need a custom kernel if you want to overclock
Sent from my One V
Set CPU allows you to make profiles which is very very useful.
Single core 1G is under recommended requirement by android system nowadays. By overclocking it to 1.4~1.5G won't drain you extra battery because though you have been used more battery at higher clock rate but the time to spend on the process is shorter(spend less time to get it done) and hence, ended up the total consumption is more or less the same. However, this works only with single core system. On Dual/Quadcore S4 cpu, yep it will make your battery drop like hell when you do overclocking because you are overkill, wasting battery.
Modern Qualcomm S2 processor is very mature, it's safe to say every cpu is stable to run at least 1.4G. You will notice huge system speed improvement overall but I want to add that, use smartassv2 instead of on-demand governor after overclocking will make your battery better. I've personally overclocked to 1.5G(mySENSE-v RC3.5 + Titanium-KISS) and notice the battery gone quicker, switched to smartassv2 solved the problem.
SetCPU is good for single cpu only(our One V), it's not supported that well for dual/quad but it's profile is still the most user friendly in the world, good for noobs, you can set it screen-off(make the cpu slower).,etcs. However, almost all other folks are using Kernel Tuner now with dual/quadcore and it's also good for One V but requires a bit more technical knowledge.
Is this the right amount of overclocking
