Hi,
i have an Italian version of i9000 with jf5 firmware.
I have upgraded whit samsung kies my firmware.
now i have
pda xwjm3
phone xxjm2
csc itvjm1
now sometime my phone goes off
anyone have the same problem?
i read that this is a bug......
You read its a bug? Of course it's a bug.
It's either a bug with the firmware or with an application. I had the same problem when using SetCPU.
Sent from my GT-I9000
i have setcpu me too.
so the problem is this app?
just uninstall it?
I experienced it (no response completely unless I reinsert the battery) when with lag fix and GPS on, regardless eclair or froyo ROM.
then I reflashed and turned GPS off for most of the time on my 2.1 lag-fixed ROM, the problem seemed not to trouble me any more. I have also underclocked my CPU with "Overclock Widget" to 800/400 MHz on screen, and 400/400 MHz offscreen.
I have a feeling that the problem was due to GPS or due to the 0513 pit, but I'm not sure - so far it's been okay so I bother not to break it for tests.
SetCPU shuts my device down... out of nothing...
i uninstalled setcpu and never happened again

Slightly off-topic but... That'd actually be an overclock if I'm reading those numbers correctly. The default frequency is 1000/100mhz with a conservative setting, meaning it'll try to be as low as possible more or less. What you've done is set min-frequency to 400mhz, which in my book is an overclock from the stock 100mhz.
Back to semi on topic... SetCPU is known to cause problems on Galaxy S, and likely other devices aswell. Most problems has been more specifically caused by using ondemand setting when setting up profiles - for some reason the phone doesn't handle this setting well when it wakes from sleep.
I'm pretty sure I managed to get it working more or less flawlessly with an screen off profile at 400/100 with Conservative setting, though I reflashed shortly after those settings so never got to test it properly. Regardless, they might work if you want to mess about with it.
I had a similar problem with JM5 and SetCPU.
Removed and it didn't happen again.

The way to have SetCPU working is to do the following:
Scaling: conservating
Freq Step: 100

Great!This work
Thank you
I don't use setcpu but I have this problem in my two SGS. Using m5 and m6..
This is something that i have noticed and have confirmed several times. Ill be downloading a rom ( as im currently doing at this moment) and i get a average of 1.6Mb/sec with the screen on. I turn it off the screen for 30seconds or so then back on amd my live data graph in System Panel shows it imediately reducing my data speeds to around. 5Mb/sec or 500kbps. As soon as my screen is back on my data speeds are right back to 1.6Mb/sec area. How could this be? Im just more curious than i am upset that my phone does this. Thanks in advance for insite some one may provide in regards to my question

Are you using cpu scaling? Perhaps when you turn your screen off, it's forcing the CPU speed down to 200mhz and that is slowing down your connection transfer? Just a guess..

How do i check what my screen off cpu state is? Im running Caulkin's 2.8 and i know his is 200mhz-600mhz screen off. But im using Rom Toolbox to keep my cpu max at 1ghz so maybe that is changing the screen off cpu mhz?

this is from calk's rom thread
"If SetCPU, Overclock Widget, Android Overclock or QuickClock Advanced Overclock are detected, the script is ignored, so it will not affect them"
it doesnt list rom toolbox, so i dont know where that falls. id ask. hope this helped!

Actually i have found out that rom toolbox doesnt over ride it. CAULKINS battery script always seems to take over as long as you dont check the box "apply on boot" i tuink im going to dive into Tegra app for my underclocking. Heard its great and i love the idea off a slow cpu clock of 800mhz and a higher 245mhz (i beleive) gpu clock. Best of both worlda. Smooth screen and extra battery so to low cpu clock
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.
First of all, Hi everyone - chefs, users and admins!
I am writing this post with a really heavy heart now, almost bleeding experience happened to me from nowhere about 2 months ago. I feel quite an advanced "flashoholic", however I've broke up with that few years ago. In 2013 I sold my Note 2 and started "new life" with Android, bought a DSLR and engaged into photography. This year, in february I have bought a tablet as I needed really something for business purposes, and I have chosen a Tab S 10.5 LTE. I didn't ever hear about any Knox tripping or anything, and as soon as it arrived I flashed a AOSP ROM to my thingie as I love AOSP overall. Than strange things started to happen with my CPU. As I recall I have noticed it first after installing Xposed to the tablet - it started heating pretty badly. When I checked my CPU states through ROM Toolbox etc I noticed it sometimes freezes at frequencies around 1.7-1.9 GHz, and during this behavior max frequencies could even fluctuate from 1.7 to 1.8, 1.9 and so on. It looks like "something" changes max frequency setting of CPU as it wants, whenever it wants to and pushes usage to the maximum.
Now, I started to look for a fix - uninstalled Xposed, every root apps etc. Nothing stopped it. I was "pretty sure" the cause is in AOSP thing and the conflict between my hardware and custom AOSP Roms. So after 2 months of tryouts to solve the problem, I today reflashed TW to "finally" get rid if this and save my battery life. What shocked me was... the bug is still here! Even with 0 apps installed, all ROM stock and clean, my CPU goes crazy, the back is hot, and CPU monitoring apps show a hard usage of 1.9 and 1.8 GHz frequencies. At this point I started to panic.
To mention - before I posted this here, tried to search over xda, googling it and so on, but it seems noone has such problem anywhere! As long as I know I can't get my warranty back, and I feel really panic and don't know what to do. I am asking experienced devs or anyone who faced it before for some help, on my knees. This tablet is great, but pretty useless when my battery hits 20% after 4 hours!
EDIT
I snapped a screenshot of some kernel options I don't understand, however someone maybe would find any wrong input here (as I can change them thanks to the app). Thanks. PS. I have changed max fr tp 550 in order to avoid heating and battery drainage, to this moment thayt's the only way I know to stop it.
Thank you very much for any help and advices, and sorry for my bad english.

Try installing Watchdog, and in the setting include phone and all other process monitoring, see if it can locate what is taxing your cpu.

Hi John, it looks like that option doesn't work. I see that none of apps exceeds CPU usage over 10%, but the clock still goes on 1.7GHz etc. Sometimes it cools down, but it happens rarely.
Did you adjust the setting to monitor all phone processes, even if you have an wifi only tablet still do this.

Sure, but the app doesn't seem to have any options button anywhere, just 3 tabs... sorry. However I can see it is monitoring all system apps also, if it helps.
it`s been a while, i will install it on my T800

Hold the button left of the home button down to get the settings, the left touchkey button hold it down to get settings.

Thanks but umm.. nothing happens. Tried holding down task switch capacitive button for few seconds on every tab, but it just goes to task switch view.
Strange, I just hold the button down and within 2 seconds the strip along the bottom of the display appears, maybe you are in the wrong mode, there are three section on the top of the screen, you need to select the far left one called STATS.

VERY strange. I did it on all 3 tabs, just nothing happens. Is it possible that app changes maximum frequency of my CPU? I don't believe any app has possibility to do it on it's own...
Have you tried it again with watchdog on the same screen in my screenshot then press the button, watchdog does not change cpu frequency.
John.
I used to have the same problem on AOSP roms and some Touchwiz roms! When you first flash it and set things up, CPU usage is fine. But after a few days maybe hours, CPU would do the same exact thing like yours! Then my device gets hot and drains battery.
I found this to be a problem with AOSP 5.1.1 roms. Resurrection remix, CM12, PAC ROM and yeah. Never had problems on Cm11. The only ROM that solved my heating issues and no cpu problems are AOSP roms on 5.0.2 or Liquid Smooth rom. 5.0.2 was bug free. Liquid Smooth ROM has an custom kernel which helps cool down the device and reduce the high CPU usage. Seems to be the only ROM without issues for me on 5.1.1. For Touchwiz roms, I just install skyhigh kernel and turn on hotplugging and CPU multicore power saving to solve heat issues. But really on Touchwiz roms, CPU is fine most of the time for me.
My device is SM-T800 BTW. This is what I found out from flashing many roms.

I need somebody's help. The coolest my Note 4 CPU/GPU seems to get is about 53 degrees C and that's when I turn it on after it's been asleep on my desk. It is not a rogue app or anything like that because I have done both Factory resets and I have install custom roms, so everything has been factory reset multiple times. The water damage sticker indicates no water damage whatsoever. I know phones can get hot when gaming, my Note 4 gets to anywhere between 70 to 85 degrees Celsius and I am just wondering if that's normal I reduced my screen resolution to 720P and disabled two cores of the quad core processor and it does not seem to help one bit. Is this temperature normal or do I need to get rid of the phone?
PS when doing normal browsing it seems to hover around 60 to 67 degrees C
And the battery does not seem to go over 37 degrees Celsius

Okay, so I got rid of my Note 4 so this is off of memory (full-disclosure). My Note 4 always ran pretty hot when it had to do anything. When flashing ROMs I'd be lucky if the CPU was below 70 C and any time I'd be playing a GPU intensive game it would get too hot to touch. I never had a lot of issues with the battery temp being too high though despite this.
As far as solutions go:
1) Screen res might help.....but I would try my other suggestions first
2) I wouldn't recommend disabling cores, it just makes the other two have to work harder to accomplish the same tasks and may be worse overall.
3) Kernel adiutor will allow you to do two things: adjust thermal throttling and adjust max GPU/CPU frequencies. I always reduced the max GPU frequency on this phone to lower the temps and adjusted thermal throttling to 55 C. The only CPU adjustments I did were to make sure the CPU wasn't overclocked.
4) I know you said it wasn't a rouge app, but get a task viewer (this is a good one) just to make sure (I had Nova taking 25% CPU usage in the background because I restored it from TiBu).
I saw your post in the NSeven thread and decided to respond, but please in the future try not to post errors in other threads unless you have the issue in that ROM. It sounds like you might have the same issue in that ROM as well, but you didn't say so in your post.
Well first of all I would like to say thank you! I have been hoping for a while that someone would have some knowledge on the subject and I very much appreciate yours. Secondly, I apologize and I will try to refrain from posting the wrong thing in the wrong area in the future. Thirdly I have kernel auditor when I changed their frequencies on my CPU cores they just change right back. If I set a minimum it will stay but then if I try to set a maximum it resets them both to the default setting. I will turn my other course back on though thank you for that information do you have any idea why I may be having this frequency issue?

You're welcome, and no worries for the post . As for your third point it would be really helpful if you tell me what you're running.
Could you list: kernel, ROM, root method, Android version, and any kernel mods (govtuner, skynet, etc)?
Also, does the same thing happen when you set a GPU max frequency? Have you tried having the settings run on boot and then reboot the phone?
Yes I have tried that a couple of times I am currently running the nseven ROM with the CPU frequencies set at a minimum of 300 megahertz and a maximum of 1190 megahertz, or at least that's what I'm attempting to do LOL I have not tried changing the GPU Max frequency. The N7 ROM I believe is Android version 6.0.1. here is what I have tried
Wiping cache in recovery
Starting in safe mode
Factory resetting
Turning off certain settings such as WiFi calling, data Etc.
Using apps such as greenify to limit background processes.
Changing screen resolution to 720P
I actually installed this ROM hoping that it would make a difference because I have the same exact issue on the stock ROM before I ever unlock my bootloader or rooted my phone at all. And according to the sticker on the back of the phone it is not nor has it ever been water damaged. The picture I have attached shows my phone's activity just while writing this reply to you. In the bottom left-hand corner you can see the statistics. Sorry for the Inception lol
