Set cpu with stock kernel droid incredible

I just rooted my incredible and I'm using the kernel that came with it stock. I disabled perflock and I left the max speed to 998 and the min speed to 245.
When I'm not doing anything on my incredible, I see that the speed constantly changes from the max to the min. Not even one second passes before it just goes back and forth, back and forth. Is this normal?
Coming from the d1 where it would stay at the min when idle, I'm not sure if what's going on with my incredible is normal.

Yes that's normal. For better battery life, I'd try a kernel with smartass governor. It spends more time on the lower frequencies.

Switching to a different kernel will give you the ability to overlook//underfoot the system needed.. this in turn increases battery life.. kingklick, ziggy's, chad's kernel are all well known kernels.. you will want to play with different kernels.. not every kernel will be stable to overlook to certain speeds on certain Rom's.. switching kernels is almost as addictive as switching roms.. always nandroid before flashing anything..

Typos on my end.. underfoot = undervolt.. overlook = overlook.

Will those kernels work on my rooted stock incredible?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Yea! By stock i'm assuming all you did was root. I am currently running SkyRaider 3.5 Sense along with
"2.6.32.26-ubcredujuerbek-12082010 [email protected] #11"
I will edit with links to these two items.
SkyRaider 3.5 Sense - SkyRaider
Chad's Kernel - Incredikernel
My phone runs amazingly fast with sense but yet, even with heavy usage (Texting constantly, on the internet, gmail, even Fring) I can go an easy 24 hours on one charge. If my phone stays screen-off idle I could last at 95%-100% for several hours.

Yes, all I did was root.
Does the chad kernel provide wireless tether and will i still need to disable perflock in setcpu?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

the non stock kernels all disable perflock already, you do not need to do it..
flash the kernel via clockwork, and you are set.. jump into setcpu and adjust some settings and add profiles.. you'll be golden..

Not quite. I believe Lou's has some tweaks within perflock, so disabling it would lose those.
And most kernel devs, particularly Lou and the ones who use HAVS, advise against using SetCPU. I'd check with your chosen kernel thread for details.

Also, I wouldn't 'set on boot', at least till you find frequencies that your phone can handle safely. Otherwise, you'll get a 'crash' loop, where your phone starts up just fine, but once you go past the initial lockscreen it'll crash and reboot. Very annoying...

what rager said... ive put on kernels and ran em high only to get a "boot loop".. its tuff to get out of cause you need to get back into setcpu to scale back otherwise it keep on going.... i learned to put the setcpu app icon on my main screen so i can get there fast to scale back..

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866736 can you install these with the stock rom. i wanted to experiment to get better battery life but didnt really want to install a different one.

Some. Make sure it's a sense version if you're using stock sense.

That exact thing happened to me...pissed me off like crazy at first I was clueless then I just did a restore
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Yeah, if you let it boot loop too long it'll hard boot, which is where the phone cuts off completely. That has happened to me, and it ruins apps.

Set cpu help

Okay so I disabled the battery tweak and just started using set cpu. My set cpu doesn't have a lot of profiles or options even. I would like to know if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

The profiles are user defined so if you havent made any, there won't be any to choose from. What are you trying to do?

I'm trying to make more profiles, or smarter ones. I wanna see what everyone else has..
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Honestly, I don't even use profiles anymore, I just let HAVS do its thing. When I did use them, I used screen off @245 and low batt set to 15% @768.

A HAVS kernel?

Yep. When my phone sleeps, it really SLEEPS. I can go all night without losing a single % point.

I'm curious about what kernel to use. Kings#11 sucked, netarchy cfs was bad..and seems like the only one tolerable was stock but I need to have good battery power..I'm currently using ziggy471
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I am getting great battery life with MikFroyo and stock kernel. If you use a HAVS kernel be careful overclocking it, increasing CPU speed with decreased voltage from the HAVS can harm your phone
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I'm getting annoyed with these kernels. So far the only ones that work are ziggy471 and stock 17. I really want to switch to myns two point two rls 5. Problem with that is I don't want to upgrade my radio and lose something. So how do I upgrade without fixing the radios?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I updated my radios and then downgraded my PRI back to 1.77, its easy and works great.

(right now, I'm on AOSP with Tiamat- amazing battery life and gained 10fps in FPSE)

And are all those for power saving? Because i dont want to change the rom. I love it. I can littery watch the batttery deplete... i even tried fully charging and going into recovery and using some shell comands i ffound to help amd nothing. I think its just a heavy rom

Just go to the Development section, and any threads that are kernel threads will have it in the thread name, like [KERNEL]...
Chad, Ziggy471, Lou, are some of my favs just to name a few. For Sense you need a Sense kernel, ASOP needs ASOP, don't flash ASOP to a Sense ROM or vice versa.

CM7 android system too high.

Okay so I noticed that even with the Tiamat kernal my battery life hasn't been great. I always see above 60% android system usage. I recently did the "GPS FIX" but I never upgraded my pri or NV. I need some help, I may skipped a step.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I would update all of your radios. Also, I think in settings under privacy, unclick back-up. Also, have you considered turning down how often your phone syncs?
It also could be a rogue app stealing resources... Let's start with my first suggestion, radios are in my Sig.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Okay this is weird, I turned off background data and now no system use. Is that saying it's a rogue app?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

How many days was it high android use?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Ever since I flashed the GPS fix but possibly after Google+ app. Either way its at 81% usage.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

It's still high as hell ATM. 77% consumption. I don't understand. Wish I could get some help.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

There is a fix for it you'll have to search for it I only saw it once
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Someone had a link for me in their sig but they changed it...and I searched to no avail. Sad cause I don't want to ditch cm7 for something so dumb. Just want my GPS to work without having my android system through the roof. Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo is on the other line. -.-
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I had the same problem. Here's the fixes I did before I finally just ditched CM7
I updated my radios (and everything else).
All my syncs were on 4 hour intervals (except weather = 1 hour)
lowered screen brightness
uninstalled facebook, g+ and gVoice (my 3 highest used apps).
rebooted about 6 times
held it wrong
prayed to the gods of android
flashed Synergy RC2
So if you were considering doing those, don't. They aren't the problem.
Ironically, my GPS has never had a problem on any aosp rom (and I've tried darn near all of them), but like you, even with the kernels my stuff just wouldn't work right. I think it has something to do with our phones just not liking the kernel. Give toastch's "godmode" kernel a try or flash back to stock to see if that helps.

Ok so switch kernals or just switch to synergy?

Battery drained really fast. .any solutions?

My gsg 3 was having a decent Battery life in the first a couple of weeks, but recently the battery life is becoming really bad. . It went down 1% every 5mins with screen off in standby mode. Idk if anyone are experiencing the same issue and how to fix it?
IM on stock just rooted, and LG2 firmware.

Sounds like you have a rouge app causing your phone to not sleep and run non-stop.
Sent from Pluto.

Few things to try.
Get Auto run manager free from the market. It will help you stop all services or app you don't us when you fresh boot up.
Also like they say, an app that might be causing the problem.
Try auto killer memory automizer this is just to show what apps are running. you can kill them but it will help you identified the problem quicker..
The main thing will be to try from the start to kill then when you boot not to killed them when they already started
There is many way, hope this help you

Yes.
To not get you confuse.
I'm running Blazer Rom 1.7 now.
The screen shot was from 1.6
Apart from the rom being different and tweek. If you don't want to change and stay in stock rooted rom. Then the apps I told you, will help you.
Here a screen shot of the auto run manager.
This will help you boot with out having apps that you don't use starting.
That will be a great help, I'm not an expert and they are people here that have great advice. Hope my 2cents help you
