you have to use auto-detect for setcpu to detect your availble clock speeds
on-demand is BROKEN
performance will drain your battery abnormally
running at 100 min / whatever max on conservative is the most stable option for this device at the current time
Leave the advanced settings alone also?

not to contradict, but you dont have to use it, you can use the setCPU.txt file and i recommend it
here is the one i use currently with the D02 1250LV kernel, it is nothing more than a simple text file which tells the setCPU app what are valid steppings/scaling so it cannot auto-detect incorrectly as it often does
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12311939/setcpu.txt
all you have to do is edit it to the steps that match the kernel you load and drop it in the root of the sd card, then go into setCPU, hit softmenu to go to device selection, scroll down and choose custom or manual...i forget what its called...then scroll down to the bottom and tell it to use the setcpu.txt file option and restart....done, no more problems at boot with setCPU
I only use performance when benchmarking. I use on-demand day to day. Set to 1250 max 100 min. I actually read the entire setCPU dev page, I suggest you do also, keeping in mind the limitations of the kernel you choose to load. I do not use on-demand scaling. I do not use profiles either. I do however, after testing my own device, use "set at boot". Two things on that. 1. setCPU now has a safe mode feature to get out of a problem and 2. I also use the setcpu.txt option instead of auto-detect which is hit or miss. Using the setcpu.txt file method (be sure to go to device selection and choose the bottom custom option) setCPU cannot accidentally set itself to the wrong frequency, it gets it's allowed steppings from the file you create.
if you read the setCPU dev page you (not directed at you jt ) will learn all of this and also about the advanced settings....but they work fine as they are for my device/kernel/usage

Id say probably either fc or nothing. Either it would try to hit something it cant and fc or it would discard the step, but then the large jump sau from 200 to 600 skipping 400 may cause an issue

Well, if I can keep mine running stable for a couple of days, with no "permasleeps" then I will give start on boot a try. So far I'm having excellent luck with 1100 max 100 min with conservative. Set to auto, it brought the right figures up immediately. So far the thing is really running great with the 1100 LV kernal and the settings I mentioned above. I'm sure my quadrant will be lower than 1200, but for some reason the 1200 kernal was only stable when I was placing load on the device, actually using it. When it was idle the screen would "permasleep". Very odd. Stress testing on the 1200 LV kernal threw no errors, but I still had idle issues.

Download the 1200 w/ boot animation. This happened to me last night when updating my wife's fascinate. I first downloaded the one without boot animation, which was fine, but only would clock to 1000 and was getting the battery not connected error. So I flashed the 1200 w/boot animation and fixed everything.

You changed speeds so you need to redetect your speed. Either do that or uninstall the app and reinstall it.

As android builds are getting more and more closer to being daily builds, one of the standing issues that remains is battery life.
This thread is where posts concerning How to Save battery should go. NOT Questions, but suggestions. If your suggestion is one to look into, it will be added to the OP.
UPDATE: You can now use ALL GOVERNORS For the CPU! (Read more to find out how) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SetCPU
SetCPU, is an app more commonly used for over/under clocking devices.
This short tutorial will show you how you get the app,
get it running, and of course save battery!
*YOU NEED A ROOTFS.IMG THAT GRANTS YOU ROOT ACCESS!*
1. Get SetCPU
A. Download it from *HERE*. (The only XDA thread I could find for it)
OR
B. Support this great application and get it from the Android market by searching for SetCPU.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Getting the App working
1. Once you have the application installed, launch it from your drawer and either grant it Root Permissions or it may auto-configure.
2. Hit Auto Detect Speeds.
3. It should show you the speeds your device it currently running at, now move over to [Profiles] and click Enable and if you want click on Notification.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Make your profiles
1. Sleep Profile - 384 Max/245 Min- Interactive setting
(It may seem high, but this keeps it so that your device wakes up quickly)
2. Battery < 30
Max 614/460 Min- Interactive/Conservative Setting
*Try out the SetCPU Widget!*
If you have any personal settings that you think might be better than these please do post!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE 9/15 ALL CPU Governors!
To use the modules use this kernel built from the GIT, and hit auto detect speeds on SetCPU again. Under the main tab choose Your preferred setting..
You can find what all the the kernels differ in in the further pages of this thread, I will update OP later.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Advanced Tab
20000 Sampling Rate
30-50 Up Threshold (THIS IS THE KEY: This means when your CPU load hits 30%, it will scale up the mhz. If the phone still responds too slow for your taste, set this lower)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777921
Check Set on Boot (And Apply)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Turning off Background Services and Adjusting Brightness
Things like Bluetooth, WiFi, Sync, GPS, and excessive brightness can really kill your battery.
A quick way to manage these settings is to hold down to add a widget on your home screen and choose [Power Widget].
This stock widget allows you to quickly see the service's your using, and the farthest one to your right allows you to switch between four brightness settings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using that new kernel link provided, you'll get a nice boost in standby time too! Enjoy!
Additional battery saving tips:
* Don't use a live wallpapers
* Turn off 3G connectivity (Eclair-based ROMS need apps like APNDroid to do so)
* Turn off Background-enabled data transfers in the Sync page.
the app screebl is a battery saver for whenever you have your screen on.

Screebl Pro is a PAID FOR APP..

Happy to help!
Next thing (when I get around to it) is probably to try out the Conservative CPU Governor module... that will correctly scale CPU power according to load (ie. 245mhz => 384, etc) instead of like On Demand, where it jumps from 245mhz => 998mhz => lower....

Use Taskiller. Red Icon in the market. Free App is the exact same as the paid one. Kills tasks as well but detects tasks that ATK cant. Includes features like End apps once screen turns off and kill all apps 10sec's after boot. Great App IMO.
I've found out that JuiceDefender does a good job as well. If you buy the extension (UltraDefender?) it also has a CPU governer module which regulates your CPU speed based on usage.

No need to pay - as I mentioned before, the "conservative" cpu governor module that is freely available (do a search!) will do exactly what you mentioned when used with SetCPU.
Hello, I've been using Setcpu for a while now to just underclock my phone to 800mhz for the sake of my battery. However, recently my scale on the app changed making the highest only 528mhz. Usually the Max is a lot higher like 1ghz area. Is this just a glitch? I don't really see a difference in speed... help please! Its bothering me that the max says 528mhz
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
You have to hit Menu, then Device Selection and Autodetect speeds again. Setting on boot doesn't work for us at the moment. You will need to autodetect speeds every time you reboot, or else SetCPU will not work properly.

Setcpu cannot clock under what the kernel allows, which is 100mhz.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
There is a way to have it auto detect on boot, you have to create a .txt file for the settings of the Kernel and save it to the root of your sd card.
I would post the thread link, but the forum won't let me so I will quote the person and topic.

not to contradict, but you dont have to use it, you can use the setCPU.txt file and i recommend it

100000, 200000, 400000, 800000, 1250000
all you have to do is edit it to the steps that match the kernel you load and drop it in the root of the sd card, then go into setCPU, hit softmenu to go to device selection, scroll down and choose custom or manual...i forget what its called...then scroll down to the bottom and tell it to use the setcpu.txt file option and restart....done, no more problems at boot with setCPU
I only use performance when benchmarking. I use on-demand day to day. Set to 1250 max 100 min.

I used this method with an 1100 kernel with the .txt file at 100000, 200000, 400000, 800000, 1100000
Honestly, I set mine to max 1200, min 100, set on boot, setup two profiles for screen off and below 30% at 800 max and it's been fine ever since.
Don't understand the long winded post about setting up text files for set on boot settings, it's not that complicated anymore.

Its because setcpu doesn't automatically detect the frequencies that the fascinate operates within and can cause problems with some phones, like mine. The way around setcpu not auto detecting these frequencies it to use the txt file method.
So, I guess I'll just C+P my post from the SetCPU thread since no one was able to answer the question there. I figure I might get some help from the EVO crowd since this might be specific to the device.
'So I have a wee bit of an issue with 2.0.4 I think... I just rooted my EVO 4G, installed SetCPU, AutoDetect, main Profile 768/460 set on boot. However, I rebooted and it says in the Notification bar that that's the profile it's running, however when I open up SetCPU the speeds jump between 245 and 998...Is SetCPU not throtleing the CPU correctly?'
Also, the only options for SetCPU I'm getting are userspace, ondemand and performance.
Is there something I did wrong when I rooted it?
What kernel are you using? The reason I ask is because I had the king #12 installed and setcpu didn't seem to be doing anything. Based on the the scaling options it sounds like a Toast kernel. Different kernels get different options. King kernels have about 5 different scaling options. I think for $29.95 he will add a 6th option.
Stock kernel. I haven't gotten around to messing with the kernel or ROM yet. Do I have to be running a modded kernel for SetCPU to function at all?

Well this is very simple then you can't OC the stock kernel. I also don't think that SetCPU can govern a stock kernel. You must flash either Toast or Kings..
SetCPU will govern a stock ROM, just hit menu on its main screen and select Disable Perflock. Disable the perflock and tell it to do so on boot. Then you can change the clock speeds around and profiles will work. Only downside is it still won't overclock, but if you are looking for power savings, this is the way to do it.

Ya I didn't think you could use setcpu with a stock kernel so that's some good info right there.. thanks.
Thanks! That did it! I wasn't really liking the idea of flashing a custom ROM or kernel to my device just yet, so this is great. I had my fair share of issues with HD2 running custom ROMS and kernels and for now I want something that just works until I get more familiar with the process.
hello everyone
i have a quick question
is it true i shouldn't use setvsel with CM7?because i just read that in the FAQ thread for CM7 here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065798
and i need setvsel because i use it to undervolting and also i don't to overclock my cpu to 1Ghz since 800mhz can handle all the games i play and im getting 1900-2100 score in quadrant on stock cpu speed
and if i can't use it or shouldn't what program should i use ??since cpu settings in cm settings doesn't include undervolting
(although i've been use it on CM7 rom for 3 days now and i didn't have any trouble)
thanx in advance
appreciate your help guys
Hi there,
CM7 RC0 has the CPU clock speeds & Vsel in the bootmenu where you can overclock, undervolt, change the governor etc.
If you reboot your phone & go into the bootmenu when the blue led comes on then you can access the overclock menu.
There's more info in Quarx's thread in the dev forum

I used the same settings that peetr_ used in the post I've linked to above. It uses the smartass governor.
It appears that there's different settings depending upon which governor is selected:
eg; for the smartass governor then in the overclock settings list the settings that start with _smt are relevant,
interactive governor _int,
ondemand governor _ond, etc.
Think that's how it works

No problem pleased I could help
I left the bootmenu cpu frequencies as to what they were but undervolted them slightly.
300/22, 600/34, 1000/54 - I tried many settings using setvsel when running froyo so I know these work fine for me.
As for the other settings I just used those that peetr_ posted for the smartass governor & it seems to run nicely. Haven't had any issues yet

btw...when i used the values in the post you gave me the phone was running without any issues but if you open setvsel and looked at the cpu it keeps changing from 300 to 1000 even if you are not doing anything but if you used the ondemand scale governor you will notice that if you are not doing anything the value stays 300mhz so im not sure that smartass is a good governor after all...or maybe its just me
anyways i think i will keep the settings like this:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
also change the other values in menu like this(i think you must change them according to the values you gave your cpu in the 3 vsels):
smt_min:30
smt_max:80(although i suspect this one should be 100 but since the user in the thread you gave kept it 80 im keeping it 80 )
smt_awake:300000
smt_sleep_max:300000
smt_up_min:1000000
smt__wakeup:1000000
smt_ramp:300000
ond_up_threshold:75
what do you think of these values ?
and also...can you tell my your temp in normal state and in after heavy use ?i think mine stays hot
oh and btw could you provide me with a link for the youtube apk you are using i can't seem to find a one that works

btw...when i used the values in the post you gave me the phone was running without any issues but if you open setvsel and looked at the cpu it keeps changing from 300 to 1000 even if you are not doing anything but if you used the ondemand scale governor you will notice that if you are not doing anything the value stays 300mhz so im not sure that smartass is a good governor after all...or maybe its just me
anyways i think i will keep the settings like this:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
also change the other values in menu like this(i think you must change them according to the values you gave your cpu in the 3 vsels):
smt_min:30
smt_max:80(although i suspect this one should be 100 but since the user in the thread you gave kept it 80 im keeping it 80 )
smt_awake:300000
smt_sleep_max:300000
smt_up_min:1000000
smt__wakeup:1000000
smt_ramp:300000
ond_up_threshold:75
what do you think of these values ?
and also...can you tell my your temp in normal state and in after heavy use ?i think mine stays hot

My cpu sometimes jumped from 300-1000 when I used setvsel on froyo.
Temperature wise it seems to be running similar if not slightly cooler than when on froyo. Now the hottest I have seen battery temp is 35C but it is mostly much cooler than that.

I just have the current market youtube app. Not sure if it was included in the gapps package?

hmm..mine reached 39c on very heavy use...normaly its around 30c
and about the youtube app..no it wasn't included and i downloaded the app in the market but it crashes on most videos
btw im getting 2000-2500 in quadrant...how come?i think that is too good to be true
Here's what i've come up with, using google (lets correct them, if some are wrong) :
con_up_threshold: [80] # system load in % above which increases the CPU frequency?
con_down_threshold: [20] # system load in % above which drops the CPU frequency?
con_freq_step: [5] # frequency step?
con_sampling_rate: [160000] # interval (in milliseconds) between polls of the system. In fact, the intervals between changes of CPU frequency? Times in 160 seconds?
int_min_sampling_rate: [50000] # minimal interval (in milliseconds) between polls of the system. In fact, the intervals between changes of CPU frequency? Every 50 seconds?
ond_up_threshold: [86] # CPU in % above which increases the frequency of the processor.
ond_sampling_rate: [50000] # second? interval (in milliseconds) between polls of the system. In fact, the intervals between changes of CPU frequency? Every 50 seconds?
smt_min_cpu_load: [40] # CPU usage in % in achieving a reduced frequency of the processor
smt_max_cpu_load: [85] # CPU in % above which increases the CPU frequency
smt_awake_min_freq: [30000] # The minimum frequency of waking up?
smt_sleep_max_freq: [30000] # CPU frequency during sleep?
smt_up_min_freq: [1200000] # The minimal jump. so default made the cpu jump every time to max speed
smt_wakeup_freq: [1200000] # The frequency of waking up. It is important to not lose calls.
smt_ramp_up_step: [250000] # How much to increase the frequency at one time?

So witch is the best governor and settings for normal daily usage like some texts, calls, 3g/wifi, maybe some games ?
I'm on smartass right now with these settings
Vsel1 - 20
2 - 31
3 - 54
smt_min... - 30
smt_max... - 80
smt_awake_min... - 300000
smt_sleep_max... - 300000
smt_up_min... - 1000000
smt_wake_up_... - 1000000
smt_ramp_up_step - 400000

i don't know...really..i can't seem to relate what are the values for with the available governors
my only problem with smartass governor that even if im not using the cpu the values keep changing between 300mhz-1000ghz but when im using on demand if im not doing anything with the phone the cpu stays at 300mhz but when i start using the phone(moving the screen up and down for example)the values changes to 1000ghz and when i stop the values goes back to 300mhz that's why im using on demand...but again it might be just my cpu
looks like it requires to dig more in the differences between each governor
anyway i read in the latest post in CM7 DEV thread that some people is actually using setvsel so i opened my boot menu,and went to overclock,selected set default,reboted,and installed setvsel and applied these values:
20/300
33/600
47/800
up_therhold:75
oh and btw...how's your battery life ?
Dudes, so please, quick answer:
Use SetVsel - no
use build in "overclock" settings in CM7 RC0 - yes?
Any one using CM7 RC0 bootmenu> Overclocking?
There are more values than in peters thread.
Please advise with all info/numbers according to present in overclocking bootmenu 0.8.6 values.

Yes I've got CM7 RC0 & using the bootmenu overclock.
There's many values in the menu as it depends upon which governor you have set it to so only those values relevant to that governor will be used.
For instance on Smartass governor - the values starting with _smt will apply
Can someone help me with the proper way to overclock the miui rom? I have dalingrins latest kernal, SETCPU, and nook tweaks all installed.
I have my steps set in nook tweaks and it set to set on boot. Also have setcpu set to ondemand gov. Should setcpu be also set on boot?
What I want is 375 min, 1100 max, and ondemand governor. What's the proper way to achieve this? Is setCPU even necessary?

This depends on MIUI's build.
If it's depending on the latest builds with dalgirins kernal and it recogonizes the 1100 and 1200 steps in it's settings, then you can set ondemand and 1100 and set on boot.
If it's not based on the integrated kernal, which you can tell the settings will only go to 925, then you need to install dalgrins kernal and use setcpu, allow root. Set it on boot. Max the setting at 1100, and set the governor on demand. profile it as you like.
WIth Dalgrin's mod... download 1.4.3 nook tweaks.. that is all you need period.
you can test what the highest voltage you can get to without UV. So try 1300 in Nook tweaks and leave the voltage alone. (DO NOT SET ON BOOT) until you have run through nenamarks back to back multiple times and quadrants back to back multiple times without random reboots or freezes.
In CM Mod Settings, Change the governer to conservative, that is your best bet to oc as it is built for solid state memory, such as memory cards (which is all cell phones.)
That is all you need... the rest is just trial and error because all chips are different period.
Then when everything is kewl, then start undervolting.... from the bottom clock speeds and up

Woops sorry... no cm7 settings... is there a way to set the governor in miui?

SetCPU or one of the other countless OC applications.

is setcpu > then nook color tweaks?
In my experience on phones, setcpu does drain battery a little more than other apps.....

SetCPU is to set the actual OC and governor of the processor. Nook Tweaks simply changes the steppings that setCPU sees and allows for UV/OV.
