Right,
Now were rooted ive installed this but how do you use it correctly to save battery? theres some way to slow processor when your phone is asleep or something? I carnt seem to find it!
Just tap the widget on the screen, or install widget on screen, then tap it

There's profiles button in the app. You click it, then you enable selected profile and set your CPU speed for it.
The only one I use us to underclock the phone when it's on standby. Can't really tell if it helps as today is the first day I'm using it.

I installed SetCPU after I put the MCR on and it's made a shocking difference to my battery life. I did find using the active widget seemed to slow things down though.
[EDIT] To clarify, literally doubled my battery life.

are you sure?
it doens't seem to work on the desire, if i set everything to lowest it still does 1 ghz, check the setcpu topic, has somehting to do with htc drivers.

Placebo effect...
I installed SetCPU and from a full charge my phone died in 3 hours lol. Uninstalled and now lasts a good 24 hours.
does not work untill we have full system write access priv

For now, SetCPU will have no effect when running on rooted Desires.
When you pull the sliders across, it seems to have no effect, and the green max and min frequencies remain unchanged. HTC has a driver that they implement which keeps overriding SetCPU. We need to hope they (HTC) release the Kernel source. Once this happens, there will surely be a release of a modified Kernel with SetCPU support and overclocking/undervolting.
Problem is HTC is really slow in releasing the GPL'ed Kernal source, it's borderline, illegal, and very irritating

are they still doing this as setcpu seems ok for me
For use it..you must have a kernel with patched init.rc to load modules on start
and you have to install permanent perflock disable and cpu govenor (interactive and powersave)
and mybe the new sense undervolt

hey everyone!
I have been loving my imagio with the Orange Slim Rom on it, but there is always room for improvement... i have been reading about the HTC Performance overclock for the older qualcomm processors msm7x00, and was wondering if anyone had tried it on our Qualcomm 7600..
Anyone Care to be the first to try it? Im kinda scared since i dont have insurance on my phone.
Hey, I'm giving it a go now. As they say, you only live once, right? Or twice (insurance helps with that ). By the way, the cab you have didn't have the shortcuts to make the actual changes. I found one labeled "__with_shortcut_" floating around the internet somewhere that actually let me use the thing. It's about the same file size.
I haven't noticed anything too dramatic, but here's some of the things I think got better:
- Lists like the contacts or All Applications seem to come up faster.
- Populates the complete lists of songs on the touch flo music library much faster and maintains them better, especially after a reboot when everything's fresh.
- Speeds through the phone's setting menus now, where it used to slow down in a lot of places.
- Google Maps approximates my location the moment it starts now, whereas it used to take a couple seconds after coming up (I don't know why that is since it finds you first by using cell towers, but it's just better at it.) It also loads the maps faster when moving around.
- Weather animations appear smoother.
That's about it. No other applications load or work any faster for me, and animations are just as smooth as they've always been. I've enabled landscape support for just about everything on the phone, and nothing rotates faster either. That said, I'm running the Imagio's stock rom with nothing more than the SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy and Manila NoPushInternet to keep the memory usage down, so I don't really know how what it'll do for a custom rom. I'm really considering removing it though, since the gains I've seen are too small to run the risk of bricking my phone or draining the battery faster, which I feel like it's doing. It is very stable though, so I see no problem in giving it a try. It never locked up and nothing crashed. Hope your experience fares better.
Thanks for the Review of this app. I think more people (including myself) will feel a little bit more confident in using this app, knowing that we havent had any brick problems... Everyone that has downloaded this app please leave your view on if this app really works or not.
SPB Benchmark is very long in the tooth, but using mainly the gfx & cpu tests on
a fresh install of nrgy may 16th:
stock 524mhz VS dynamic 624mhz clock:

using nuedynamic clock to underclock the phone 384mhz VS 122mhz Note the voltage was set to 0 (least):
FWIW i also tried the near defunct nueoverclocktest cab to go from 524mhz to 768mhz. i hard locked ASA i switched it to 768mhz on both AC power and 100% batt power.
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/post/2009/09/07/nueOverClockTest.aspx
so in conclusion, i highly doubt HTC Performance does anything AFA changing clocks & we apparently can't overclock.

Hi Guys
Just a test if it works and would like your feedback
Those on the new XXKH1 firmware could you try this if possible
Menu>settings>power saving> and click on system power saving and/or use power saving mode
and see if it increases your battery life as opposed to not using them.
I just wanna find out if it works..
EDIT : Also wanna find out if there is any relation with AOS BUG and Running services
UPDATE: 8 Hours sleep time screen shots
Android Usage in 8 hours night time almost 20% drain

Do you guys see any pattern in this? with regards to AOS bug and the Battery DRAIN?
Wonder if its anything to do with the running processes?
Also clicking the system power saving makes my phone lag
will update later with full usage
Do you think it works differently than on earlier ROMs?
Yrs, there's now 2 power saving options - system and custom. System is new

Same for me, I hate things sitting in my notification bar needlessly.
That's what killed it for me as well first time I turned it on months ago. So the new option shows notification as well?

Ok updated some screen shots of 8 hours sleep time while doing nothing on the phone lets see how the day goes
but it sure lags my phone
Sat in work with the new firmware on and this power thing turned on, it is laggy as hell so i wouldnt use the phone in this mode, but while i am working and have my phone on my desk i thought id give it a test.
i dont have any apps on as it was a clean instal i also dont have any accounts set up for emails ect and have noticed every now and again my screen is lighting up, noticed it twice in the last half hour for what reason i have no idea.
System Power Saving:
-underclocked cpu
-lower brightness
-laggy phone
Let's of is really DOES improve battery live...

Ok I have come to the conclusion :
That it dosen't really make much difference to battery life on a whole as such
and on Top of it , It makes your phone lag so bad its a shame.
So am back to unticking them two silly boxes
I have been turning it on when i know im not using my phone for a long time, such as sleeping and in work. And i have seen an improvement. If it is the feature or just a really good firmware i cant tell. I am sitting at 15hrs on with 68% battery remaining. Screen on time is ~1hr45min. Its the best stock i have used thats for sure.

8 hours 20% drain is kind of too much don't you think? normally my phone is less than 10% for 8 hours
KH1 system power saving limits dual core max clock, adjust brightness and recude UIO rendering speed. Third option is really annoying becuse UI animation is not smooth.
Great ROM, stable, no lag. But I have noticed some bugs or weird features in Team-Nocturnals Shooter, GB 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 dodge kernel 1.6, HTC Evo Shift 4g
1. It's near to imposible to add HTC widgets to the home screens because when the desired widget is selected, the system returns to the customize home screen section, so the widget isn't added or very rare.
2. When managing apps, if you go to the app details, sometimes it will start to compute the size of the app changing numbers very fast; If you click on the Move to SD card when the numbers are changing, you will move another app (not selected) or get error messages.
3. The Quick settings area at notification area show as second line 'Javascript' or 'Navigate away from this page?' in most options.
Question: Is it posible to use wide backgrounds and move between home screens moving the background to? I don't see how.
this should be posted on the roms post
Yes I know, but I don't have enough "useful posts" to post there.
Well we'll just see what we can do about that

hehehe Ok, I will do it, this is a very nice ROM and I want to help to find any issue as user.
Thanks
Ok, tnx a lot. I'll do it.
In the meanwhile, I noticed that the apps moved to a SD card and added to any home screen, will lose their stock icon in the next boot, showing the generic android app icon. That's another issue with this rom.
This is a probably more a question than a incident. I use an app to protect apps from running without a pin or password to protect privacy. Smart applock Pro. I used the stock rom, cm7 based, sense based, and this is the only rom where I'm getting a message from the market telling that the app is not suitable for my device.
The free version doesn't show that message, and was installed without any trouble. Developer or ROM issue? I will check.

i have the same issue here. this works in mikg. but not in shooter... i've done a full wipe too.... any ideas?
Suddenly with this rom my cel become more and more unstable, I got frequent reboots, some lags and error messages. And even I never had the video playing issue (I read somewhere people with an issue when playing video) it finally appear . Plus now, when a I get a call, the caller id image is like garbage video. I liked this rom at first because is fast and has the best sense I've seen since the stock rom. But I'm not using it anymore, I changed briefly to MikRunny beta (sense 3.5), it's a little heavier than this, but better I think. I returned to a cm7 based rom because MikRunny is at beta stage and I noticed the enable/disable 3g control is broken and I can't switch between networks easy, just rebooting.
May be the celphone became unstable because I was trying different values for the cpu clock and governor. I was using dodge kernel and played with smartass, ondemand and interactive governor settings, and with bfq and deadline schedulers. My best experience was with deadline and ondemand scheduler. It was as if I had a new and faster phone.
I'm on lollipop so I just noticed but SetCPU hasn't been working for a while.
I need a program where I can say
When screen goes off -> underclock to X, importance 5
When battery at 50% underclock to Y, importance 1
When battery at 35% underclock to Z, importance 2
etc.
I only want it for underclocking. The build in battery control doesn't do much and my battery life is pretty terrible when I use the phone (screen on) a lot. I've tried CPU control pro and it would only allow me to set single profile, not have it changing interactively. If anyone has any good apps they've been using let me know, I need to do something about this.
Thanks!

Since over/underclocking requires root the answer is there is no such thing for lollipop

I am rooted, on JasmineROM 5.1 (LP 5.0). I just followed the instructions avoiding the OTA and retained root. The CPU control programs I've found work for one setting, just not with profiles.
Let me widen the question out. Does anyone have any good CPU control utilities for LP or KK?
I know there is no going back one you're unrooted on LP although I've heard if you go back to 4.4.4 there is a method.

What is this?
This is an app, written by me that configures the CPU governor and some other things to save a lot of battery, while have the system as fluid as possible. (Less lag and better battery than factory settings)
I also made some configurations available for the user.
How to get it?
You can install the app from Play Store - Redmi Note 2 Tool
Start it, and give it root permissions. Without root permissions the app will refuse to do anything!
You can use the values given by me, or change them. Either way you need to tick "Set On Boot" in the menu, and press "Save&Apply".
You need to enable Autostart for the app in MIUI security center.
Battery stats are in the next post.
Latest standard version.
11.5H without charging, WI-FI always connected, 6H screen-on, 1.5H gaming, the rest is FB, 9GAG, Messenger and browsing.

I have to say that the Android battery stats are also very inaccurate, the most battery was used by Jurassic World and Angry Birds (each about 15-25%).
Also remember, this is the standard version, No Touchboost has even bettery battery life!
Nice! and what is this touch boost anyway, is it gonna affect performance or something?
