Is anyone using SetCPU with the new Froyo? I just downloaded it from Marketplace and have a question. It disabled the perflock and I lowered the mhz to 806. If my intent is to get a longer battery life did I do the right thing? It was running at 998 so I'm thinking that my lowering it I'll slow down the processor and in turn give myself a bit more life in the battery. Is that right? Thanks in advance.

Disabling perflock shouldn't scale it down. Did you set it to automatically detect setting when you first started the app? If not, you should. (Might have to re-install)
Yeah it auto detected a min of 245 and max of 998. I couldn't change the max whether setting to user, ondemand or performance without disabling the perflock. Once I disabled that I was able to scale the max level down.

setcpu was causing too many crashes for me on Froyo leaked 8-01-10.
I uninstalled it for a refund.. even when it did work for me.. I didn't notice any major battery savings.
ive noticed slight battery savings with setcpu. biggest thing ive noticed is the charge time. with a set profile to run the cpu @ 245 when screen is off the phone will charge the battery to 100% from dead in just about an hour and half. and the standby time increases running that profile as well.
Hey community...just wondering if i could get some input from you guys on some of your personal settings on your rooted epic app...set cup.... Im running sfr 1.2...genocide rom..cwm purple and dark horse theme. Overclocking im not too worried about.. .i have it jacked all the way up. My question is some of yalls settings when it comes to sleep mode and other modes...thanks for your time!
I'm running a similar setup to you. As far as profiles go I have it set to scale down as my battery goes. Useful and it makes a big difference especially when your getting down to those last few percent. Using the screen off profile set to 200 mhz max, 100mhz min I get force closes. I don't think its worth having unless your not deep sleeping for some reason.

yuh....i feel ya..i got the same sleep settings...im actually getting bout 1 day 5 some odd hours...i was just making sure im getting the mostest lol
Hi All,
After being a long time iPhone user i recently purchased htc one x, as a result my android skills are almost non-existent; so please bear with me.
I managed to flash clockworkmod recovery and rooted with SuperSU with no issues.
Purchased setCPU after reading the reviews and enabled. However the phone would reboot randomly a few times a day. Ususally when the screen was off.
After disabling setCPU there was no rebooting issue.
Has anyone got this app to work on the OneX, and if so which settings did you use?
Also has it been confirmed to work with all 4 cores?
FYI I had the following profiles setup.
Screen Off
Freq:640Mhz-51Mhz
Gov: conservative
Temp > 44.5
Freq:880Mhz-51Mhz
Gov: conservative
Battery < 30%
Freq:1000Mhz-51Mhz
Gov: powersave
Charging Any
Freq:1500Mhz-51Mhz
Gov: ondemand
Please note these profiles are based on no evidence, just on what I estimated to be about right...
Cheers
I did not start using SetCPU on my phone yet because it's not rooted, but first I would check if SetCPU doesn't require some kernel support? and if that's implemented in the custom ROM you're using? (if it's needed, I'm not sure).
Or maybe SetCPU needs an update to properly support our phones?
That Temp > 44.5 Profile, wouldn't that interfere with gaming? I have never used Temp profiles before (is it really needed?), only the other ones, like battery and screen-off and charging.
my one x has unlocked bootloader, recovery and root. I was running into some serious intermittent lagging issues, the phone in any app would just stall for 5+ seconds. after hours restoring after failure , it came down to the problem that using ANY cpu controll app, messed my phone up... BADLY! it seems at the moment (im assuming) apps like setcpu and cpu master are not quad core ready...
thanks for the responses guys.
I guess ill just wait until one of the devs can confirm this as working...
The reason is simple. We don't have rooted kernels yet. Until then stay away from messing with CPU speeds or under volting. Etc.

DO NOT mess with your CPU speeds yet. Undervoltage is causing reboots!
the software is not up to the hardware capability, i dont think the cpu control apps can handle quad core yet. and there is a lot of apps (esp. games) that lag a lot, and amazingly the cores are too lazy to work... im hoping for a better kernel that will address this issues.
If you want to at least see what's going on with the cores, I can confirm that Tablet CPU Usage Monitor works on HTC One X
It shows 2 icons in notification bar, each icon showing usage of 2 cores. Not sure how accurate it is, but so far had no problems with it and it seems to be reporting correctly. Developer is working on single icon with all 4cores in it, to save space.
I had the same problem, but if you delete your profiles you won't get reboots.
I'm just running default profile Max: 1500, Min: 760 Ondemand gov. and it has been a straight line for 6 hours when I was sleeping and no reboots.

I was having that problem too... In my opinion, I don't think that the phone can handle the Conservative governor setting. I set my governor to Interactive (On Demand works too)
Right now, I have my profile set to 1000mhz max and 475mhz min, with screen off profiles set to 475mhz max and min. I have not had any problems with the phone rebooting at all since setting those freqs. (And I don't want to quite go any lower yet). And I have it Set on Boot.
im now using rooted HTC One X(HOX) and installed RD-MIUI ROM quite sometimes. my kernel is still in stock. Im using setcpu and NO random reboot happen like what you have said. Yet, i am still confuse whether setcpu is good for my phone. based on my review, in the leading rom developer thread they not mention setcpu for their choice. they play alot with kernels to govern their hox cpu-s. could anyone do some comment.
hi everyone, i just got my G pro - E989
And i was getting low benchmark score on Antutu so i followed the guide to turn off the thermal heating limiter from the hidden menu (3845#*989#)
and when i turn the Thermal Daemon Mitigation to ON (means no brightness limit) and i run the Antutu benchmark it gets to 21% and than the device turns off completely, when i turned it back on it seems that the screen has some flickering on the left side , so i was going back to the hidden menu and i turned the thermal daemon off, did a reset to the device and it stopped,
is there anything wrong with my device ? should i use my warranty ?
i am using stock and no root on my device - never dropped it or anything like that....
i would like to hear from E989 models if they are strangling the same issue going trough the same guide i did.\
I have e989 and i did it but not having the issue. In antutu i had 26650 but after all i disabled it

That's big cpu, what about little one..4 cores

They stay on. I've managed to get core 2 to actually turn on. Wait for phone to phone let it be a sluggish mess for about 10 minutes re-enable core 2. It'll turn on and then instantly off and kick back on slightly after. (I've done this after re-flashing my rooted image, flash fireing xposed.)

What app are you using to access those settings?
thats very weird you are seeming to get that issue! Try another cpu control app perhaps. I havent had that issue of core 2. Maybe change the gov. or freqs of cpu and what not to see if it finally enables.
