Dosnt that just drain your battery?

No. It forces the GPU to run instead of the CPU. It works in a similar way as when you run a game, the GPU controls all the graphics while the CPU handles the rest. So the GPU should be used to handle the GUI, not the CPU handling processes and GUI. And leave the GPU doing barely any work.

Also certain apps will not run correctly, like the XDA app

Not only does it not do much it screws up allot of apps. If it was all that great it would be checked by default.

I really do not know what you guys are talking about. I have that option turned on right now, and it works PERFECT. Also, did you know the developers enabled that on GB? But did it do anything bad to the phone? No. Did you guys agree? Yes.

i think it is the default for aokp... i just looked and it was checked on my phone and i don't remember doing it (and i just flashed an updated build yesterday).

I've been using that setting for a couple days now. I've notice no ill effects. Seems fine.

Some pics don't show up in the xda app regardless, that has been an issue for awhile now. Has nothing to do with having that checked.
Are you saying it happens more often with it checked?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

The app itself should be optimize to take use of it. If an app can do it, it will automatically do it. I personally recommend leaving it unchecked for various reasons such as the picture problem stated above as well as not every app is coded to work with it properly.

Using the latest XDA app, premium or free.. do you guys still get notified whether its message or thread subscription??? After updating to ICS, I noticed it doesnt notify me anymore..

Idk what you guys are talking about. I've had ICS since the nexus s and ALWAYS tick 2d gpu with every flash. Its become second nature for me. It forces gpu acceleration throughout. There's absolutely no harm done by this. And if you say there is, send a log cat of the error to the dev because its the roms fault.

this is app for overclock cpu, but you must have custom kernel...
long and complicated story for you... is not for the beginners

And i'm afraid to try it myself .. Maby it break the phone .. As u can see the home screen of it !!
Sent from my LT15i using xda app-developers app

Is it Q n A section?????

you can try it, you will not damage the phone...
now you can only select max freq 1024MHz... for real overclock you need custom kernel and then you can choose a higher frequency

You have to root your phone to use no frills. Look in General Discussions section to see how to root your phone or Google it

Its a potential battery saver if u use it to UC your CPU and can be a great battery drainer if u choose to OC your CPU.. For me, its useful..
I use to UC my ArcS to 768max..so it can last 2days or more without charging..
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app

"No-frills cpu" what is that app ?? >> Overclocking Tools (ain't that obvious )
Is it useful ?? >> Depends... do u still need more cpu clock (which consume more battery, etc) , or satisfied with current clock.
So how to use it ?? >> Just change the clock, it just that simple. (but of course, u need, kernel that support it).
*Before u do overclocking, google it about "governors' and 'IO' first....

This thread needs to go to questions.

Don´t know what post you are reading and who is giving such advices, as it´s anyway enabled in Arcos roms. The only thing you can additionally do is to force 2D apps to use GPU rendering as well insteed of using CPU rendering.
In games the GPU and its rendering is anyway used, so that´s pure nonsense and has no sideeffect when forcing other 2d apps to use it as well.

Is your question, can you leave this off? Or on?
You're taking about the setting in the Hidden Menu?
Someone else posted something about this, their name started with a"C" I believe.
Anyway, mine is turned off and has been since that other post. I don't really think it did much for my battery life.

Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

So here's the thread it was originally brought up on. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328478
I remember my issues with it. I'm outside a lot and the phone will autodim down to 67% making it unreadable in sunlight. When I used this setting, I worked great outside but the screen would do some weird things when I left it on all the time. But I think it was conflicting with the autobrightness. It probably does make your phone run hotter as the cpu and the display won't be using any temperature regulation. And the Display has always been an issue on stock.
