Its not actually down always... its just shows current CPU freq.. if you have heavy apps running on background.. then it will show high.. if not, then low..
Try using a game or any video player with sw rendering.. try opening this app then..

It happens. Reboot your phone.
Sometimes it can be found that the governor settings are behind this.
Scroll two pages over, screen of min step can make your minimum frequency lower than you set it at the main interface. As for the main interface, set it to the frequency it states max, reboot from it(remember to tick set at reboot).
If all those don't work, remove app reinstall. (or you can try this first).

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

245 min, 1228 max, smartass governor.
Works great for me.

245-1032mhz
How is the battery life with 1228MHz?

On-Demand 1036/245 & On-Demand 460/245 for screen-off.
No lag and battery life is awesome

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
When I have beastmod flashed alone (pretty sure its using stock kernel) and when I flash jugs .02 kernel. no matter what I set it at while using demand governor my min frequency keeps going to 384 on my first cpu. my second does seem to stay at 918 which is what I set it it at.. Is this normal?
Tried using setcpu and system tuner . both have same effect except set cpu min slider will stay at where I set it, system tuner will revert to 384
anyone have any idea? driving me nuts.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Mine does the same on both apps only difference is with system tuner is that sometimes the min actually goes higher to about 1.5 but then I close it and check again and it's back at 384 while the second CPU stays at where I set it..

I am on both jugs and beastrom and my overclock/underclock stays what I set it at but I do know that my brightness settings go back to automatic every time I reboot even though I set it on minimal brightness.
I am only using set cpu so maybe I'll advise removing tuner app

I was using setcpu before I tried tuner. I know ur slides stay the same but when u switch outta the app and go back is ur mhz displaying 384 or ur minimum
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
anyone have any idea why this happens?
I have the same exact thing on juggernaut 2.0 running synergy kernel 0.02. On another note I also have solved the problem with the brightness (I think) by just going into settings and adjusting it manually in display rather than using a brightness widget or some other way to adjust it.
I'm having the same problem on SkyICS RC7 Speed w Faux kernel. Max settings stays put, minimum setting resets to match it. If I sit on the setting screen in system tuner, it works fine. As soon as I back out of the screen, it resets.
Hey all. I bought this also last night and I really like it. Phone seems much smoother then with set cpu. My concern is when I set the clock speed, I apply them to run on init.d. But when I open the app to check the settings it shows my minimum speed as high as my maximum speed. But if I go to the voltage settings then back to the cpu settings its fine. My minimum and maximum speeds are fine. It shows both maxed out when I first open the app. I just don't want my cpu full bore all the time. Thanks.

Bump for some help

I think what you are seeing is actually the Max of each core, not the min/max.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Also to whenever your changing speeds in system tuner after you set the desired speeds click on the kernel tab at the bottom and click on file that's says "mpdecision " and kill it, this ensures that both cpu will come back on line as the adjusted speeds you set
I stand corrected. The top slider is Max, bottom is min

You could also try and use Fauxclock for setting OC speeds and a screen off profile and just use System Tuner for UV and SD tweaks. This has been my combo and it works wonders.

Wow. I never thought of doing that. I would think they would work against each other. I may do that. Thanks

Just bought it but I don't really get it. Both the max and the min. Are at 1.5 set on on demand but at the top it says 384 mhz (I'm guessing that's the current clock speed since I'm not doing anything) don't know which one to trust. should I set the min. at 384 ?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Set the min at 384 and the max where ever you want. Stock is 1.5. You can underclock or overclock (if your kernel supports it). If you overclock dont check set on boot til you have played around with your phone and are sure that your phone can handle it. You can choose what ever governor works best for you. Conservative is best for battery, performance is the worst. Most people go with on demand, but your results may vary.
I've found that the smartassv2 governor gets me the best results.
But its very unstable and can cause crashes.

thanks man i just dont know why it doesnt say 1.5 at the top since both the max. and the min. are at 1.5 maybe its a bug or something or maybe thats how it is
ps i hit the thanks
Try clearing the data on set CPU and then uninstalling and re -installing. If that doesn't work, but into recovery and wipe data and wipe dalvik .

Or if that doesn't work go into your superuser app and hit menu, then preferences and update your superuser binaries. Sometimes if they are out of date it can cause issues with set CPU.

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?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
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.
