i dont give 2 ****s about over clocking all i care about is stability and battery and ok speed
right now i have CONSTANT BATTERY DRAIN for some reason my display is taking more percent then other things.
HTC-G1
cyanogenmod 6.1.0 rc1 <== lots of battery leaking apparently
Amon_Ra's Recovery
DangerSPL
right now im semi- happy my 3g keeps switching to HSPA speeds which is cool ever since i did all this **** but now im ready for a more relaxed setup and i dont give a **** about unstable bull **** overclocked ****
to help others i will provide some updates

"I tried the latest Pershoot's but had bad battery life. I'm using hte .34 kernel at this time and its running fine. Boot to restore, I use Amon_RA, flash the kernel from the root of your sd card. I'm also using SetCPU, make the CPU minimum LOWEST, and HIGHEST for maximum. Make it Conservative scaling. Make a profile "when screen off" put min and max to lowest, put powersavings scaling. Its on xda"
"For a G1, you want the "32B" version of the kernal. I'm not using the "xtra" version, because I'm not sure what the difference is."
"It should come as a zipped file; put the file on your SD card, reboot to recovery, and flash the zip that way. It's a good time to clear caches, too, I think. "
droidbasement_com/db-blog/ <pershoot .... DONT EXACTLY KNOW WHICH KERNAL?>>>
the setcpu is crashing the system i reccomend not doing what that quote said now i gotta fix this,
wiped cache and delik cache AND battery (From boot) to see if itll fix freezing..... wierd rebooted cm loader image when crashed seems like its getting there but went to g1 screen it actually fixed it self in the end but i stilll put a min to 176 and max too 5568 , left on conserative
i've actually heard of after rom(ing) and everything your hardware needs to reboot the system to get used to everything so everythings fine as of now if i do not like rc's i only like stable things lol, btw lower display light ...
highly reccomend 28000 mah battery! the stock g1 battery is like ehh a low mah
i have been deeply thinking about going back to stock this battery drain is awful at stock everything worked for daily use now im **** stained
for the hell of it i installed pershoots kernal from cynagon rom manager , set to 2g only will keep updating my newb log
My brother and I both got Fascinates this month. Both are rooted, but only mine is upgraded to DJ05. We are both loving the phone except, both of us have a problem where the screen/phone will not wake up from sleep sometimes. It will just show a black screen, it even happened while talking on the phone today, the screen didn't wake when I got off the phone. I've done a few searches and on some other phones people suggested setting SetCP to at least one higher then the minimum when it's in screen off mode, but I just tried that and had the same issue 5 minutes later. With all the development going on, I'm hoping that someone may have found a fix for it. Does anyone else have this problem or know of a solution? I apologize if there is another thread in the fascinate forum about this, I did a few searches, but didn't see anything.
Thanks,
Ryan
You could help yourself by stating what rom version and what specific kernel you are using. And if you are using a task killer and or power managment app.
good day.
Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. We are both rooted, but my brother is otherwise running stock. No task manager, just Setcpu. I upgraded to DJ05 and installed JTs Superclean w/non voodoo and rom. But I wouldn't think that'd be the problem considering he's running stock. Maybe it's setcpu? If so is their another comparable manager for battery life that someone might suggest, I can see if that fixes it?
Setcpu offers no benefit to devices using a stock kernel only good for over clocked kernels. If the problem at hand didn't start until installing setcpu, then you have your answer. I myself do not use any power management apps so I can't speak for them.
good day.
Did you by any chance install something that adjusts the brightness of your screen?
If your running Setcpu and your having problems waking up the phone, are you running a profile for the screen off? You can't run profiles on Sammy phones, they don't like it.
No, no brightness apps.
Yes, I was running a profile for screen off and stuff. That was the whole point of Setcpu, I thought, so you could reduce it when the battery started getting low and the phone wasn't being used. Thanks for the info, I uninstalled it. I guess that's the problem. Only time will tell though. Do you know of any other reputable apps that would be similar to Setcpu?
Why not try geeks last kernel? I believe it was uv and should help battery life if that's what you're going for.
I would, but people have had some issues with them from what I hear, besides he's no longer developing them or supporting them, so sooner or later I'd be changing anyway. Maybe I'll check out juice defender.
You can keep setcpu, just don't use any profiles lol and keep it on conservative

Does it actually do anything for you though to help save battery life without the profiles?
Just because he isn't deving for the sf doesnt mean that his kernels are worse than the stock one...I use adryn's 12/17 test 2 and get amazing battery life..14 hrs at like 60-65% but it's voodoo and you will prob not want that.
setcpu will change the ramp up/ramp down speed...more time at max when you need it more time at min when you dont...i don't think it will help nearly as much as proper kernel
Hi All
I've had my Dezire Z since launch and it's still on the original software (1.34.405.5) and is perm rooted using visionary (pretty much since visionary first came out and so simple to use). The only thing I really wanted root for really was to be able to use SetCPU to underclock the phone when the screen was off to give better battery life as initially it was terrible!
However, last week the loud speaker died on me, anything that uses it (sat nav, music, ringtones etc) is really really badly distorted and totally unuseable.
I've spoken to HTC who suggested a factory reset (which I'm 99.9% certain won't help), and if that doesn't fix it, then I'll have to get it picked up for repair.
I'm fairly happy about backing up everything etc and unrooting using visionary, so my phone will be fine for sending off.
However I imagine they'll update to the newest version of the software, which If I understand correctly is not rootable? Is that right? I've read so many rooting threads and, to be honest, have been left somewhat baffled by it all!
If it comes back with the latest software, is there any hope for me to be able to root or flash to a difference (still Sense based) firmware?
Any help/advice very much appreciated!

No, it is not true. I update my Desire Z to latest software, then downgrade easly to low version of 1.3x to get SuperCID, so it will not be a problem, becouse you can downgrade any time and put rooted firmware.
The problem will be if you get firmware, that was not yet published, but even for this it will be possible to do something.
Oh that's good, though I have to say all the guides I've read about downgrading etc have left me rather confused.
I don't really have a huge need for root, except as I mentioned for running setCPU for battery life....

I have also have root on my phone for setCPU, but I dont observe any changes with cpu management and without, so I decide, that I dont need it such, and upgrade to newest software without root.

How do you find the battery lasts on the newest software? on the original software it was really terrible until I started using setCPU...even now it's not brilliant...
It definately increased the battery life for me,I'm on a stock pre-rooted GB rom.

when i was 1.34 i never had any battery issues. if i left it alone it will last a week or more. but sadly i cant live without music and reading my txt/email, ive managed to get 6 days battery life. but this only happened after 2weeks since i bought the device.
i had to double charge the phone, charge the phone till green when its on then unplug the charger then charge the phone till green when phone is off. only had to do that method once.
better off flashing to stock so its rooted and s-on. It really begrudgingly did this because they will plug it in when it goes back for repair.
I just got a stock rom off the net and they didn't update or downgrade it, they literally just wiped the user data which I have been told is protocol.
Hello everyone...
I have 2 issues with my Transformer
the first one is that whenever i leave my Transformer for couple hours it shuts down !! doesn't occur when charging but it does when it's not.. even when the battery is around 80% !! i had this problem with ALL kernels except the stock kernel which i don't wanna use !! also had this problem for around 2 months...
the second one happened today when i left my Transformer "Charged" at 100%.. and after couple of hours i found it shut down but when i powered it on again i found the battery 27% !!
i went to the battery stats and found that battery was decreasing slowly and there was a gap (which means that it turned off) and after the gap it shows the battery low !! it happened within 6 hours !!
Please help me if you can... !! I'm using Revolver ROM 3.9.5 and "Blades Kernel 3" that comes in the Revolver Parts...
UPDATE : The problem occurs with the stock kernel !!
This sounds very familiar to the problem I had with my Galaxy S2 a month ago.
It kept shutting down every few hours, and it was driving me mad. Then one day I uninstalled the app greenpower, and it was fine afterwards. You don't have the greenpower app by any chance? If not, maybe it can be caused by some other app you normally use?
The battery might be hosed. Have you ever let it hit 0 before? A lot of batteries never fully recover after being fully depleted once or twice.

I never heard of this app... Just like i said it doesn't happen with the stock kernel !!
But the reason I'm using other kernels is because i wanna Overclock !!

No i never let it hit 0%... but i don't think that the problem is in the battery
However I'll try it and see what happens !
sounds like a silly question but i have seen it alot. Are you charging through a computer(USB) or wall?
It could be related to setCPU and the according profiles. Just recently I saw that my profiles were messed up after updating ROM and kernel. Might be worth a shot.
Reinstall stock kernel Issue #1 fixed.
Issue 2 sounds like charger shut off and left TF on not charging.
You've pretty much explained to yourself why the thing is shutting down.. It works fine on the stock kernel but not one that is letting you overclock.. Sounds to me like you are either overclocking more than it can handle or undervolting to much or both.
I can almost bet that its not shutting down completely and its just going into a state that the screen is off but the OS is hung up, so its not responding to you turning the screen on.. This would explain why the battery seems to be dieing when its sitting idle.
Not sure about it dieing while its plugged in other than maybe a fluke.
I don't wanna use the stock kernel.. it's really slow !!
and i over clock to 1.4 ghz only since i can't overclock more than that because it restarts itself endlessly if i overclocked more than 1.4 ghz !! i undervolted about -25 or -50.. not much !!
Yes i charge it on a wall or anything but NOT on my computer...
How can i change profiles in setcpu ??

No no you misunderstood! DONT let the battery hit 0.
First, you need to use more exclamation points !!!!
sounds like you are suffering from deep sleep issues. What rom are you running? also, have you tried running a custom kernel and not overclock it? You have several variables that can be influencing your issues, start isolating what may be causing your problems. the kernel seems the must likely of culprits, I would clear the overclock and install setcpu and run it for a but and see if you can replicate your issue.

Just try the non stock kernel, oc it but dont uv it, not all devices can handle uv, even if it is only a little bit. Even take it back too 1000mhz and try to increase the uv and oc by little bits at a time to see exactly what your transformer can handle. I think its the uv thats causing the problems. Experiment a bit and youll find the sweet spot.
I'm using Revolver ROM and i mentioned that...
I've never undervolted till yestersay.. maybe it caused the second problem
I set the clock speed at 1ghz and i'm waiting to see if anything changes..
Yeah... the problem still occurs even after setting the clock speed at 1ghz and default voltage !! using clemsyn kernel ver 22...
Every device is different. Differences in manufacturing etc. You might have a picky device. Plus these are mobile platforms. No fans, just convection cooling. They are not meant to be tweaked and oc'ed they way we do. The stock kernel is very fast. What is it that you cannot do on the stock kernel that the extreme oc let's you do?

I'm guessing my device is bad and it's Asus' problem ! i tried setting the clock speed at normal 1Ghz but the problem still occurs !! the reason i overclock is that because with the stock kernel i get slower web browsing and slower flash playback and slower overall performance!! however I'm back on the stock kernel to check out if the problem is gone or not...
I doubted my device couple months ago... because I've seen everyone overclock their devices at 1.6 GHz Without any issues !! but when i try to overclock a little bit more than 1.4 GHz it restarts itself endlessly !!
Had the same issue a few months ago. Be prepared to wake up to a dead TF.
I sent it back to ASUS and they replaced main board and battery. Under warranty of course. I suggest you unroot and use a stock rom for now.

You stated in an earlier post that the problem does not show up in the stock ASUS setup, but only with a custom ROM and Kernel. How does that make it ASUS' problem. If you buy a car that says it runs on 87 octane fuel and you put 100% nitro methane in the tank and it blows up it is not the manufacturers fault.
I got my nexus 6p and it was pretty fast with no mods or custom roms, just had a weak battery. I ordered the battery on ebay (aftermarket THQL 3600mah) Now the battery is fine but ive heared theres no thermal contact or something like that. After installing a new kernel, the phone was sluggish... Installed root and Kernel Auditor and saw my for BIG cores were offline... This was NOT a problem earlier! Turning off Thermal VDD fixes this and turns the BIG ores on (Phew)! But am i missing something? I heard somewhere the Big cores were shut off to save battery or something. Any help and info would be awesome!
Kernels probably turning big cores off until there is demand. I've seen it happen many of times nothing to worry about. I have also battery from eBay works great just no temp sensor. Kernels are fine and all but sometimes can sacrifice performance. If you need your fix I found just changing the governor's on the stock kernel with elemantal app is all you need. Google search the article Flar posted about kernels. It really puts things into perspective. I'm no expert on the subject just from my personal experience.
