Do we still need SetCPU with shubCraft build??

Hi. I'm wondering, does the shubcraft/cyanogen build already have an equivalent to setCPU? Or we can still install it to improve performance.
I'm asking because I saw a post saying that their phone was throttling properly without setcpu and saw somewhere (i think) saying that there's a program being used by the cyanogen build....
any input is always appreciated.
thanks

Easy answer
Install setcpu and use it to monitor. It does seem to peak at 998.

thanks.... but i was more concerned if there's already an app running like setcpu (preinstalled) and if setcpu will conflict if there is such an app preinstalled (as from what i've read in some posts that there is although i'd rather confirm it with someone)

i had a problem with setcpu on the shu8i cyanogen build. the sampling time and the cpu threshold were to high and would cause major lag.

No cm6 do not have setcpu preinstalled

why a new thread? this is related to that build and the chef/users of that build can help you out there. this should be moved and merged with that thread.
quit wasting space people! i havent seen this amount of useless threads since Hero ROM's were first developed for the G1... and that was alot of useless threads.

New to overclocking

I have tinkered with of pcs so understand a little bit but have never done a phone. I would like to oc to s decent speed but at the same time not massively impact on battery performance or temprature.Would anyone be willing to walk me through it. Don't want to harm my baby

Install one of the OC-kernels in this forum and download/install SetCPU. a free version of SetCPU is available here on XDA, use search.
Once you install the OC kernel, start SetCPU, click auto-detect and off you go!
Set default max and min frequentie and make profile (like Screen off->max 386mhz, min 245mhz).

see even thats not basic enough for me
i have set cpu on my phone now and i was going to download this kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835616 (will this be stable and kind to battery consumption and temp)
so once downloaded where do i put it and what do i need to change to get it working

Why don't you read through the overclocking module from G2 thread in de DHD dev section?
I have my DHD for 3 weeks and this is my first android phone. I got it to work following that thread.
really simple

Voting for adding "smartass" governor to i9000 froyo/gingerbread kernels

hi guys..
i opened this thread in order to hopefully urge all developers, and kernel developers in particular, to consider adding the "smartass" governor to the list of cpu governors already available...
before anyone asks, here's what the governor developer said about it:
Technical Details-originally posted by erasmux :
smartass governor is based on the concept of the interactive governor. I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works -by taking over the idle loop -is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the "old" minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies. Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 -why?! -it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!
also here's more on other governors in addition to the smartass governor in this thread
so what is this about??
"almost" all kernels available for samsung phones are missing this governor, and as some might think "hey, we don't need it..".. well i also own a samsung vibrant, and one of the devs there (ECOTOX) was so kind to add the goveror to his existing kernel called "SuperDragonModz", and the result was fanf*ck*ntastic.
here's what one of the guys at the kernel's thread had to say about it:
a4 moda said:
Eco, omg. Wtf. This new governor ands native functions if the kernel are simply amazing.
Smartass is so fast and efficient! ! !
Way better than conservative or on demand, one is schitzy ands the other is too battery strenuous.
Great FF+$% job! ! !

i had owned a few HTC Android phones in the past couple of years, and all the kernels there have smartass.. i don't think the devs there add it for no reason!!
this is about spreading the "smartass culture" among samsung rom/kernel developers..
what do you guys think?

I don't know enough about it but what you have detailed there makes me think it's a good idea.

Damn good idea, smartass rocks

This is an excellent idea, I've used in the past

You should be using it now, your sig says you own a htc hero, i'v had one in the past, smartass was one of the reasons the phone was so fast(for a hero), and yet battery efficient..
Look for flykernel 11c.. You'll love it

am i missing something here?!

Most kernels for i9000 dont have smartass, so probably its only because few people know that they like it or not. Or the thread title is intriguing for people that dont know its a cpu governor hahaha

glitch use it in his cm7 kernel, and that is by far the fastest kernel available for the sgs

Yeah some cm7 kernels have smartass, but almost no samsung kernel has it.. Only SuperDragonModz for the vibrant.. We need i9000 kernels to support it to get the most out of our devices..

Perhaps changing the thread title might help, there's already too many smartarses on here

+1. Change the title.

done.
i hope this clears things for both smartasses and non smartasses
vote people.. maybe we can pump more enthusiasm towads the devs, and our phones

bumping for composure

really want to try smartmass governor.

smartass cpu governor for i9000
+1. I'd like to see it included for i9000 galaxy s

+1 smartass governor for our SGS would be great.

thanks for the support guys, this goes to all those who voted and didn't actually post anything also
i hope this gets attention from devs, hopefully by the next update(s) for froyo/gingerbread kernels we'll start to see something from the devs..

Its already in talon kernel, you just have to go and change it to smartass in the configuration files.

[POLL] NAND-users: What governor do you use on your HD2?

So, the title says it all.
I'm curious about what governor do all you guys use??
Place your vote here.
Also, feel free to comment why you choose your governor!

Lagfree, on Marc's Kernel. Awesome, but not in your poll.....

I think this should be moved to q&a.
My favorite: smartassv2
Why? It includes a stanby management, is stable and fast.

You shoulda posted in Q&A
But i use smartassv2 with my OWN custom settings and i use it because it gets great performance with amazing battery life

I am still working between different settings on TBD. Lagfree with Marc's kernel is good but I am now working with smartassv2 with custom settings. So far so good

Lagfree 128 - 1190
btw, this should be in the Q&A

It sucks that majority of governors have no description, so only way to decide between them is through trial and error (which is very tedious given the number of governors and differences may only be placebo) or by reading other's recommendations.
I was using convervative with a heavily customized settings, then smartass/V2/smoothass (switching between them, AFAIK they are very similar anyway), but now I'm testing Hyper as it's default on new DORIMANX.

moved to Q&A

Not sure if this is a thread to post this sort of problems...
Anyway, at the moment I got a HD2 running flawlessly HyperDroid-CM7-v5.9.0 with smartassV2 governor and I'm very happy with it.
The problem is that as soon as I switch to for example interactiveX governor I start getting freezes where the phone is left screen on and nothing else working.
I've been previously dual booting wp7 and android sd. Back then I had same sorts of freezes on android but would just tweak my auto memory killer to less aggressive settings to not get freezes. I'm a bit confused on this but after all quite sure that this is about something else than memory related problem.
Any ideas?

I have also tried few of these governors, but I think that there is no big difference between the better ones like hyper, ondemand etc. just a placebo when somebody release "new" governor

[Q] Overclocking?

Just wondering if it's possible to overclock the CPU or GPU of the Tegra Note 7?
It's obviously a fast device anyway, but just out of interest.
Thanks in advance!

sure you can overclock.

Thanks are you just overclocking CPU or do you overclock GPU also?

never needed gpu for now, so just cpu =)

Nvidia already released source..?

I have installed trickser mod and rooted the device but the maximum allowable frequency is 1.8ghz. How should I allow higher options to be selected?
Thanks again
Edit
Do I need to install a different kernel? If so please could you advise which one to use and if possible a brief instruction of how to install. Thank you!

I don't think development has reached that point yet. As far as I'm aware, there are no custom ROMs or kernels available. I'm personally a little worried that there isn't enough interest in this device to where we'll ever see those things, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a beautiful CM11/Shield hybrid ROM brought to our beloved tabs!

That's why I was confused as cars10k has been overclocking I think.
Maybe it's something from the Shield forum ?
