I am using cm10. flashed the newest one 1.10
my min is 384/1242 max are you using a cpu application like set cpu?

no I don't have set CPU. I read that you don't need to adjust the settings and it will improve battery. is this true?
I can go under settings then perfromance then processor and adjust min max CPU freq
Not every kernel gives you better battery, some can even drain more power.
Other thing is that sometimes you can't notice much of the improvement in first few cycles. Give it few days and about 3 full cycles. Charge it to 100% and fully discharge.
If that doesn't work try refleshing or using other kernel
Good luck

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 keep hearing people say they uv -xx number to save battery, how do you do that?
You can check the kernel thread you installed from. Usually use echo command and point to vdd_table. If you don't understand what undervolting is, you may not want to do it. It can cause issues if you undervolt too much. It can save battery life, but i would suggest using setcpu, you can find a free copy on xda, and setting profiles, like screen off, in call, etc., to lower values. I would say, stay above 300MHz for min. and clock down the max. Min are: 384-540 for screen off; 384-540 for in call. also, with some roms, you can set the main value, on the first tab, to a lower figure in the max column. I don't charge my phone everyday anymore.
Thanks for the detailed info. But I heard there's an app that does uv?

Ah ha!!! I see!!! Thanks!!
I've used up my "thanks" for today but I'll definitely come back tomorrow.
What is the uv number I should generally set to save battery but not have the phone freeze?
If I set it to negative too much and the phone freezes, I just reboot the phone and re-set the number to a higher (less uv) value?
it's different from phone to phone, you just gotta try it out and see.. i UV mine about 100mv under stock at 1.51ghz

Mine can do 100 also
I can only go -62.5. Anything over that will freeze the phone...
How come every phone is different in this regard, does this mean my phone is "born" to consume more battery?
Thought I saw posted somewhere here not to use SetCpu on our phone? FauxClock always FC's on me. Running Jugs overclock on rooted/flashed T-Mo SGS2.
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 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 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

The lowest safe rate would be 384 but you would be a lot better off
to get the "JuiceDefender" app from the play store.
It has a lot of features including auto cpu frequency and you can set it up
so it automatically handles all options needed for the very best battery
savings modes without sacrificing performance...
My personal opinion which is not worth much is NOT to mess with
manually over clocking, under clocking or volting but instead use a
true and tried app like JuiceDefender to do all the work for you.
Check it out at the play store.
Thanks I'll try it out

Hey i got a question about CPU. Im running wicked rom with Deviant Kernel. My max and min freq keep changing. My kernel allows me to overclock to 1944 but i set it to 1620 and min at384. im using smartsassv2 and cfq but it keeps making my maximum 1350. no matter what i change the gov. to or the max. I reinstalled rom and and the kernel seperate. to see if it would make a differecne and same results. Please Please Please help me fix this
I'm not an expert but I think I can some what help you. Are you toggling the set on boot?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You need to install a custom kernel and possibly a custom ROM.
Then you can overclock/underclock to what your kernel supports.
I've seen kernels that allow min at 94 and max at 1944.

I don't think there's much you can do with regards to battery life. I've tried doing what I could to get a good battery life with CM/aosp and the best I could get was 5.5hours screen on time on lowest brightness and 12hours between charges. Compared to stock I get 7-8hours screen time and 24+hours between each charge. There's nothing much you can do with battery life.

You could flash a kernel like n.e.a.k kernel .. and download their app..
For getting a slightly better battery life, undervolt your CPU by 50-75 mV each step and you also may set the CPU ti 1.4Ghz instead of 1.6GHz
For the sound, using their app, there is an option for speakers and headphones.
Set speaker between 57 and 63(loudest) and same thing for headphones. .

Even with neak kernel or redpill undervolted it still sucks at battery performance. And sometimes under clocking to 1400mhz results in graphic glitches in the UI with aosp. I think its just not designed to manage battery usage as effectively as Stock ROMs.

The problem isn't in Google .. 4.2.2 works with great battery on nexus 4 .. cm can't be like google but they are trying to make the rom as battery efficient as possible
I personally get 5-6 hours of screen time..
I get 6-8 hours on touchwiz.
No big optimizations made.. 1600 MHz and UV 50-75 .. and overclocked GPU for better rendering without UI glitches ..
