Is it possible set CPU can make my battery life worse? im not overclocking it, or underclocking, pluse my phones a little laggy
Anythings possible, I know setCPU didn't play nice with my Samsung, but I dont have any issues with the EVO. The only setting I use is to underclock waaaaay down when the screen is off.
You need to list what settings you are using

My questions is why do we need to use setcpu when we can use built in cpu tuner on CM7, profiles?? Last time I check whenever your not using your phone ei. screen off or left it by the table your cpu will automatically tune it to the lowest right??
EDIT: maybe we need profiles for battery percentage

wondering the same thing
I have always been a user of SetCPU and profiles, but two days ago I finally decided to give to built-in CPU tuner on CM7 a try, and it seems a little better on battery life and I do not notice any diffrence in the performance. I think I will stick to using the built in CPU tuner for now and see how it goes.
I've been using the built in cpu on CM7 for 2hours it drained me 19% of the battery light usage but I'm gonna try until it drains to 0%, my battery normally last for 13-16 hours on setcpu 248-1017 profile and I'm using the same on built it.

actually, where is the option for the built in CPU Tuner, is there even one? or does it run automatically?

thanks for the fast replies, am gonna flash it right now
I'm having trouble finding a CPU app that works perfectly with this phone. I've tried setcpu, CPU master, system tuner, and nstools. What's everyone using to oc this thing?

Depends on which rom your running but in general...you should use none. Most roms already uv and oc and if u use an app it'll butt heads.

My issue is that it seems like my phone is skipping steps all over the place. I'm using cpuspy and the usage jumps between Max/min clocks. I'm kinda not digging that. Its the same with every rom i flash.

That's not an issue with your cpu app. It has to do with your governor (the thing that controls how your CPU scales). Most ROMs come with ondemand by default which pretty much does exactly that, which is jump from min to max as needed. If you want something that scales more, you should look at conservative (for better battery life) or lagfree/interactive (for better performance). Lagfree/interactive are only available on select kernels though (whereas conservative is almost universally available). Streamline definitely has them and I think synergy does too.
Also CPU apps don't butt heads with the ROM/kernel default settings, it just overrides the default settings.
Yea I figured that but this is the first phone I've had where on demand performs that way. I've had a nexus s, epic 4g, evo, and a g2 and they all scaled across the steps ondemand. Ondemand on this phone works like the min/max governor. But your right conservative scales across the steps well. Just a bit choppier. About to install nstools and mess with the threshholds and whatnot.

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

See overclocking it just provides.better performance for.the app.u are using at that time, u may miss understand but it does.not.give u more ram, 1.5 ghz will eat ur battery like.****
I.recommended 1.2......I use it with np

I get 17-18 hours per charge at 1.5ghz with moderate to heavy usage. Web surfing, gaming, texting, reading books with screen on time of 5-7 hours. I have the cdma version with Virgin Mobile running the latest version of AOKP 4.1.2 and the jellyboot5 kernel. I can watch a full length movie using MX Player and only lose 18-20% battery.
Switch on ur net ...it's apps like whats app......if u use net the whole day...see it wont last 8 hours

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.

welll ur the first person i know who is happy with ur battery life! i can max 18 hours with heavy gaming,net,music!
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.
Works good.

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?
What apps do u guys use for overclocking to 1.2 ghz or more so my HTC can be faster? I just rooted it

I use setcpu its my favorite works perfect and lots of features, u need a custom kernel if you want to overclock

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

You will need flash kiss kernel to do overclocking....
min: 245
max: 1401
governor: smartassv2

What you think about this, should this overclocking be fine?

that's a perfect combo of governor+scheduler, keep it that way.

which rom? if your on RC9.5, its fine
but if your on RC3.5, u might wanna OC it to 1.2ghz max coz battery drains faster on sense full roms
