SetCPU and screen not turning on...

Now I am not blaming the app I am just wondering... everynow and then, when I wake my phone up, it doesn't want to wake up or when I turn it on and try to unlock it freezes... was wondering if anyone else was getting the same thing.
Rooted using the one-click method.
Screen off setting is min 400 max 400.

SetCPU issues
I have been having the same issues myself. Mine was set low to 100min/max: screen off just as a test today and it did that to me a on a few seperate occasions. Not sure why, just ended up battery pulling after 10-15 seconds of no response from the phone.

The cpu is set too low on screen off, go for 245 or so

setcpu does not play nice with r phones. i had problems witth it on every kernal i played with. right now im using the mix up kernal. i used setcpu to 1.2ghz max and 100mhz min. conservative governore. i have yet to find a set up to use while the screen is locked with no issues. what i do know is galaxy s phones only like the conservative setting. maybe a 400mhz max 100mhz min with conservastive governore would work?

Make sure setcpu is set to conservative. I set my lowest to 200mhz and max at 1200. No issues here other than sometimes the notification pull down bar is laggy but it does that stock anyway.

I'll try out those settings tomorrow. Thanks guys =)

Any1 know how to get to 1.4 ghz? my max is 1.2 on setCPU and i have voodoo kernel flashed

Try this to hit 1.4.

There's a kernal that allows you to hit 1.4ghz its the overclocked one from baked snacks

The rom don't control the cpu speeds. The kernal does. You cab run any rom kernal combo you would like. In order to hit the 1.4ghz you want you need to run a kernal that is capable of doing so

Is SetCPU really necessary anymore? If you run a kernel that's not locked into performance mode it will scale on it's own even without SetCPU. I haven't installed it on my Epic yet and when monitoring the phone with SystemPanel I see my CPU go down to 200mhz when idle and scale up when processes are running.

Where is the kernel for 1.4? I have baked snack rom max is 1.2 i know kernel is the part that "controlls" speed but I'm stuck. Any help

I dont think I quite understand your situation, are you rooted or not, according to this post you say you are stock besides "peraroot (I think you meant permroot)and the kernel" , so meaning you are rooted (s-off)??. Anyways if you are rooted why are you using gscript to OC with? And if your on a custom kernel why not use setcpu or something similar.
If your not rooted (s-on) then I think I remember when using the gsript files that 1.4 and over was unstable, if you want something a little higher than 1ghz use something like word pad to change the value in the script you are pushing for the oc to go to 1.1ghz or 1.2ghz etc..

From my experience, not all processors are created equal... Some just handle the higher frequencies better than others do.

I have loaded everything why not working download kernel should put first in phone should I do in computer
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App

Yes I'm permarooted. S-off. I'm useing gscript because that's what was done in the video. I have setcpu and use it but with out a overclock program I can only raise it to 806MGz and with oc. I can raise it to 1017MGz. If that's as high as I can go then I guess I just have to deal with that.

As someone said earlier, I think you are using the old, unstable method. I highly recommend u updating to a ROM with OC embedded into the kernel.
It is also true that "not all processors are created equally" but this is the only case I have read with it freezing at 1.4.

Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I have the same problem ,i am running virtouos ROM with evil 12/10 and if i over-clock anything over 1094mhz my phone freezes the the only way that i can manage more than that is if i set it to performance scaling with no profile and there is no point on doing that because it eats the battery .its only good for benchmarking ,i think your problem is same is me, you have been unlucky with your CPU .i am just hoping its going to be different when gingerbread come out.

Have you given CM6.1 a go just to compare if you can clock higher using a different ROM?

If you are indeed using the gscript method then this has been explained many times! there's a whole giant humungo thread about that hack when it initially came out.
the reason your phone's freezing is because you're asking it to clock faster, but you arent giving it more juice to offset the additional work it's conducting..hence the freeze. that old hack (while it was awesome at the time) is very outdated and has been surpassed by actual performance kernels.
It's all in the thread. you wouldnt put low octane in a sports car would you? same principle lol

[Q] set cpu

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

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.

[Q] How do you overclock your Gio?

Hey guys, i got cyanogen mod 7.2 installed on my phone, and whenever i tried to change the max cpu speed from the settings, it would now work after boot. Most of the market programs i use freeze as soon as i try to apply my changes. I got "No-frills Cpu control" to work once, so i made it 844 max clock speed. (I confirm using android system info app"). EDIT: after another frozen reboot, the clock speed has gone back down to 787 again -_- . So frustrating!!
So i was wondering, which app do you use to overclock your gio that doesnt freeze?

Alright, so i got my max set to 864 and min to 245, and while im using it i get a bunch of random reebots every 3 min, and one sleep of death where it wont wake up unless you pull battery -_-. Using built in overclock still

I feel that the Smartassv2 cpu profile consumes more battery than the On demand one. Anyone here think the opposite?

Which is the best governor for gaming performance?

Performance or smartass v2
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

For performance the best governor is "performance". It causes that processor overclocking is always the highest. It means that if you have overclcked processor at 921MHz, with this governor phone will always work at 921MHz. But don't use it, it drains battery as hell
The best governor for daily use is SmartassV2, because it's balance between performance and battery
And sorry for my English :|
Na szczęście jest TapaTalk

which 1 is best for daily uses????
i am using smartassv2 but sometimes my phone becomes very very slow takes 1mint to slide the status bar phone apps etc.....
what is i/o schedular??? is it effect the speed?? which 1 is best???

Now I just use the On demand governor. Smartassv2 drains my battery pretty fast

Yup,any overclock will drain your battery quicker,this is very logical as you consume more power,right?I use No Frills CPU control,and i have my galaxy Gio set to 921 Mhz....! It realy works like asmall little pocket rocket now...I was already very satisfied with the price/performance ratio of this cheap little phone,but now with this stable OC it really hits it out of the park!!!No complaints from me about this phone..I'm gonna try and achieve an even higher oc,but it's really not a must,just want to know how far i can push it.No Frills has a benchmarker impemented ,very handy.

That's true. But smartass is just like balance between perfomance and battery drain, which makes it the best governor
