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?

[Q] Max/Min Settings for SetCpu?

I have DoomKernal installed. I have the max set to 1.5Ghz, but what should I set the minimum to?
also, any suggestions on governor?

Usually you can just set the minimum frequency to the minimum allowed. Personally, I like the SmartA**v2 governor

Looks like my phone doesn't like 2Ghz, it crashed.

My settings are Max 1.5 Ghz Min 122 Mhz, Governor: On Demand.
Works pretty fine and saves a lot battery.

For ondemand, did you set anything in the advanced settings? Sampling rate and stuff.

Stable UV settings for GT-N7105

Feel free to add to this if you have lower settings that work
Just my setting tested with gt-n7105t and Perseus-alpha31.2-n7105 kernel.
Tested with Stability Tester and games... as theres no userspace for cpu govnor it takes a fair bit longer for testing

OP has correct stable settings
updated CPU/internal/memory UV settings
will edit OP.

Here are my settings, though they are for the N7100. Running RedPill v1.30 Kernel.
Tested mine with Stablity Test, Games and Sygic (It would work fine in games like Most Wanted, but crash in Sygic, could be that Sygic is more CPU intensive, hence better for stability testing.). UV-ed with System Tuner and running on Pegasusq Governor (the only governor on this kernel)

thanks for the feed back.
will put them to the test soon.
system tuner hasnt been working to undervolt cpu for me and fails to set or report the lower voltages on this kernel.
havent seen the Sygic program yet.

Many thanks for the settings. I also run RedPill so simply copy pasted the same. I don't run any games so no need for higher clock speeds. I limit mine to 1400. So far 100% stable and since no games with time I might be able to do even lower voltages.

If you do play games, you should try GPU UV as well

No time for games but want to try GPU UV as well. Expect it would give me a bit of extra battery time. Would appreciate if you can post some starting settings so I don't have to start from scratch. Thanks!

These are my settings, do take them with a grain of salt

Off course will test first to see how well it works on mine. Thanks!

What do you use to set the voltages other than the CPU voltages (GPU, memory)?
I tried STweaks but it doesn't set voltage at all on my Note. Tried System Tuner, it works but also does only CPU voltages. Voltage Control works but is limited to CPU voltages and additionally the voltage steps are bigger so less accuracy in setting.

I use Stweaks, but Android Tuner allows me to make these changes as well. I think you need a kernel that supports GPU OC/UV. I'm on RedPill kernel if that helps

I am on RedPill as well but no luck with STweaks. Will try Android Tuner, thanks!
Really strange!!! RedPill and root so all of them should work fine, sliders are there for both CPU and GPU no obvious reason why they would not work but setting them to anything does not seem to have any impact. The only tool that does allow me to set the voltage to any crash or freeze level is Voltage Control. All other tools I can drop all frequency levels to 600 mV and I still don't get any issues.
Am I forgetting to do something???
UPDATE:
For some strange reason STweaks, System Tuner and Android Tuner have trouble updating my voltages. I am though managing to get STweaks to update if I change the frequency range and change the on booth setting. It still takes a few attempts but eventually it does succeed. No issues with Voltage Control does the job perfectly but the lowest voltage it will allow is only 850mV while I have at least 5-6 frequencies that will run on a lower voltages.
The most important voltages for me are for 200 MHz, 800 MHz and 1400 MHz. 90%+ time the phone is switching between these three but the last value will vary for others depending on keeping stock speeds, UC or OC.
Starting tomorrow I am off work for 10 days. Will do a bit more testing and then post my lowest achieved stable voltages.

STweaks has always worked for me.
System Tuner Ive had problems so i dont use it to set voltages.
also might be a conflict with having more than 1 program changing voltages.
Ive noticed system tuner stores its voltages separately and caught it messing with my voltage/max min cpu speed more than once.
Very handy program all the same and cant bring myself to uninstall system tuner.
using Stability Tester and Real Racing3 for testing.
go too low on the voltages I find it crashes from deep sleep.

setting processor governor and speed for gio

Hi,
i was wondering what would be best option to set for processor on gio,
currently im on maclaw's 4.0.4 aosp,
i wonder whats best settings for:
governor;
minimum and maximum speed's
i/o mode
and potentially best app for performance governance

Max 902MHZ
Min 320MHZ
Governor: userspace
I/O: deadline
Used on MMB ASOP ICS 4.0.4
Ps.
If u think your CPU will fried up use 883MHZ max speed :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app

best app is no frills cpu available in the play store.
for max frequency dont go past 902, afther that for me the phone becomes unstable

Max: 883
Min: 245
Gov: smartassv2
I/o: noop
the most stable frequency of all time on all roms.

Lags in games

I noticed that some games have several lags and I want to know if it's possible changing setting (cpu, gpu, etc, I don't know how work this setting and for what) avoid these lags. I have installed thunderom, skyhigh kernel and synapse control. Thanks

Change the multicore settings to agressive (the next page of cpu frequency), cpu hysteresis to 15,change I/O to noop or zen, change the cpu voltages for 3 circles, in the GPU settings max mHz change to 667. In the next page scroll down and change
117 =800 mHz
266= 900mHz
350= 1100 mHz
420=1300mhz
480=1600mhz
533=1700 mHz
600=1800mhz
667=1900mhz.
In antutu it scored me 51k with zen
