Hey guys. I know there are numerous threads about setcpu but there isn't one specifically for different settings people are running on their phone.
This is to help others have an idea of how to prolong their battery daily...
Here is mine..
Rom: cm6 froyo
Kernel: cm6 snap 3
Launcher: adw
Setcpu...
1. Charging/full - 998/245
2. Screen off - 245/245
3. Battery < 70% - 883/245
4. Battery < 50% - 768/245
5. Battery < 25% - 537/245
6. Temp > 50° - 576/245
1. Ondemand
2-5. Powersave
6. Conservative
I'm down to 40% after 12 hours of usage... Texting, browsing, emails, and an hour of slingbox!
Lets see what others are using and their settings.

do you overclock it under the charging profile? because you have that listed at 769max.
do you find the min 128 for your screen off profile to lag trying to turn the screen back on?
I have no powersave. Only userspace,ondemand,performance options.
^ same i think that is only an option in froyo?

What's the idea for changing sampling rate and threshold? I would like to know if that helps with the performance and battery life.

Sampling Rate is akin to reaction time to change, judged in microseconds. Up threshold is the load point at which the processor increases it's speed from min to max. (I know, I know, it's a lot more technical but for simplicity's sake).
Setting sampling and up threshold low means that at the slightest increase in load, the processor will try to increase its speed. This is helpful with performance, but may impact battery life as the chance of you running at higher speed is greater.

Battery life at 1.344Ghz isn't that bad, as 1.267, 1.305, and 1.344 all run at the max of 1350mv (which so far is the max that the Snapdragon can handle). So, at my current settings (with my standard battery), I get probably 3.5 hours of non-stop use, and maybe 24 hours of standby if I'm lucky. But...I've got some pretty sweet Quadrant and Neocore scores.

What good is underclocking at power levels that are greater than 15%? I like to use my phone as a SMARTPHONE as long as I can... 1115 mhz peak for ALL except screen off and under 15%.... when its plugged in (either charging or charged) I bump the minimum speed up to 512 or 768... Everything is real smooth!
I still get a full 8 hour day of Shoutcast streaming at work with those setting (along with texting, facebook, twitter, etc.)
I'm using the EViO Series Rom. I have been unplugged since 330am. I'm going on 10 hours of being unplugged and still I got 61% battery left and according to my "Battery Left Widget" that breaks down to about 10hrs and 46 minutes left. which totals to be somewhere between 19-21 hours of battery total since i unplugged my phone at 330am.
My SetCpu settings are:
1152000/245760
charging AC/FULL 998/537
CHARGING USB/FULL 998/537
BATERRY <50 883/245
TEMP > 50 652/245
BATTERY < 25 499/245
SCREEN OFF 384/245
i just loaded this up because it seemed that my Fresh ROM was a battery killer, not sure that it was the ROM, but whatever the combination i had going, i could only get about 5 hours per charge. What kernel are you using and what are you usage amount and battery life for these settings?

I just installed the rom and that was it...plus my apps from titanium backup. I think the rom have the Netarchy Kernalalready built into it. Here is the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736810
I am somewhat a heavy user...I stream Pandora, check the net almost constantly, check emails, text messaging a lot, check FB & Twitter and a call every now and then.
Just to give you an idea..from the last time I posted which was at 1220...my battery is now at 52% and the "battery Widget" says I have 9hrs and 44mins left of battery usage.

I also like to USE my phone, hence wanting my battery to last as long as possible. I use 1.15 from 50% - 100% then I switch back to the stock speeds to start to conserve power. I found for me I am usually flashing something (also meaning indirectly charging) or fooling around before I even get to 50%. So 90% of the time I am always at 1.15. That being said the times my battery has gotten < 30% and I was at 768. I didn't notice as large of a difference as you'd think unless I was playing a 3D game. *shrug* it's all personal preference. I have a full SMARTPHONE experience and utilize my phone to its fullest.....
With Fresh 1.0.1 and netarchy 3.7.3c, in order of priority:
Screen off: 245/245
Charging/Full: 768/1152
Battery < 25%: 245/768
Battery < 100%: 576/998
Just set those, we'll see how they work. I read it was a bad idea to set mins lower than 245, so I'm playing it safe there. I never really noticed problems with having 245 mins across the board, but I'm giving it a bump for normal < 100% usage. My screen is off most of the time anyway.
I use my phone constantly as well so I'm trying to find a good medium for battery and performance. I'm gonna try to scale mine to 1.1 until the 75% mark and see how that goes.
Running a custom rom plus a custom kernel does help for me so far.

I use System Panel pretty religiously to keep an eye on things, mostly in an effort to save battery life or figure out what apps are using battery. One thing I noticed right away, which may explain the complaints people are having with shorter battery life and warmer running.
On 2.1, if I leave System Panel open and just watch CPU clock speed, it will idle in the 200-300 MHz range. With the leaked Froyo OTA, it never goes below 600 while idle, and averages 700-800. I went ahead and closed down all third party apps and even some non essential built in processes just to make sure, but nothing got the CPU speed below 600. Now CPU *load* percentage was minimal, less than 10%. So why won't Froyo let the speed drop down at idle?

Good catch. I'm looking at it now, it gets down to 448mhz while downloading an APP from the market over the mobile network. Once downloaded and installed, it stays between 600-900mhz?? Rebooted and it still never goes below 6, and mostly stays in the 7-800's. Not good! I have a fresh install of Skyraider 2.01 with sense removed, using launcher pro.
I found this really interesting but I think systempanel is reading incorrectly. I say this because if you watch set CPU read the processor you can see that it drops down to 245mhz when idle even though systempanel reads 600-700mhz.

Day 1:
Flashed Simple and Clean v1.3
2.6.35.7 speedmod test3 k2 kernel
Juice Defender Ultimate in Agressive mode.
Batterylife: 11 hours. Lost most of the life when the phone and I were both asleep during the night. It went down from 100 to 38%...
PS: If anyone wants to give me their set up so I don't have to spend so long on this quest, that would be appreciated...
There are 2 more threads with the same topic, with much more info. Also, we know nothing about how you use your phone, except that you have huge wakelocks. Not really helpful tbh.
care to point out those threads for me?

you could actually use the search function
PS - Ditch Juice Defender it uses up as much battery as it saves, trust me this is fact.
I did. I tried some of the solutions posted in some threads like using speedmod + clean n simple, and also lightning v6.1 and ninphetamine kernel; doesn't work.
I used to have the Galaxy S Vibrant before I got the S2. I swore by Juice Defender. I would get on average 45-60% more battery depending on usage (phone was rooted with OCLF installed). My S2 gets an additional 2-3% more life while running juice defender. Takes more than that to run it. My opinion, remove the app.
I am running sensation 1.9 rom and hardcore speedmod kernel. I work oh average 11 hours a day. Phone isn't used much during that time. Wifi is always on and by the end of my shift, it's at 94% or so.
When I get home, my phone is put through some heavy use. Facebook, youtube, texting galore and internet browsing. I always have 25-30% battery left at the bare minimum written I go to bed at 6-8 hours later.
In my personal opinion, this rom and kernel combination give me the best power (4700 on quadrant), best options (configuration got nearly anything) and best battery life (phone lasts all day with ease). I would recommend this to anyone in a heartbeat.

I'd recommend the Hyperdroid rom. A lot of users (including myself) have hit 5 hours screen on time (most I've seen is 7 hours). Phone can easily last a whole day, just need to check for wakelocks using BBS. 60% overnight is ridiculous lol, you should really be losing 1% every 4-5 at least unless you have loads of people ringing you all night
My setup
Rom: Hyperdroid 2.9.0
Kernal: TWD2.5
UV with voltage control
200mhz - 1200mhz
Sio I/O - Lulzactive governer
Max Screen On Time - 5 Hours 28 Mins
Facebook/Whatsapp Syncing
Read the guide i posted yesterday, its a bit long, but will definately save you battery life.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351663
Also my setup is in my sig - very fast, very slick and above all great battery life (range between 20hrs and 28hrs moderate use)
I read the long thread. It has some points in there I didn't know about.
Will try HyperDroid Rom.
Tried Sensation. Battery life failed for me with that ROM. Will try it againwith speedmod kernel if HyperDroid doesn't work...
btw, what governor is the best for Hyperdroid?
i use
check/leo rom v 3.1.1
siyah kernel 2.2 beta6
ice cream sandwich theme
the kernel is set at smartass v2 governor
1.4ghz - 1300mv
1.2ghz - 1275mv
1ghz - 1150mv
800mhz - 1050mv
500mhz - 950mv
200mhz -900mv
100mhz - 875mv
my sgs2 doesnt like undervolting so them settings should be safe to use on most sgs2 handsets
i then have the following profiles
screen off 100mhz -- 200mhz
charging 100mhz -- 500mhz
in call 100mhz -- 500mhz
battery at 60% set cpu to 100mhz -- 1ghz
battery at 30% set cpu to 100mhz -- 800mhz
battery at 15% set cpu tp 100mhz -- 500mhz
getting excellent battery life with my sgs2
ive also frozen any apps i dont use via titanium and used a start up manager to stop certain programs starting at boot
i used to use juice defender but on the sgs2 it doesnt seem to wrk as well at all
i was getting wakelocks from facebook chat draining my battery so i have installed an app to auto close that when the screen goes off and that has saved me more battery and kept wakelocks down
as other users have said its all about how you use your phone , the settings above might be useless if you have lots of background tasks going on as a screen off profile off 100mhz -- 200mhz may not have enough power to do your background tasks however when my screen is off i want my phone to go to deep sleep and not consume power etc so a very low screen off profile suits my needs as does a low charging profile as i dont use my phone on charge and 500mhz max power suffices my needs for when the phone is charging
same goes for setting a battery % profile i know when my battery is at 15% i wont be playing high end 3d games so it makes sense for me to try and save battery and limit the cpu to 500mhz at that battery percentage but other users may want full power all the way till their battery dies , it all depends on what you want and do with your device
Day whatever:
Used Hyperdroid ROM: Battery Life is AMAZING!
Using their 2.5 TW kernel as well...
The first thing I did was restore all my apps with Titanium Backup, but then I got crappy battery life, so I reflashed the ROM but this time, I didn't restore any apps.
I got amazing battery life!
So it was an APP's fault!
yeah sometimes apps are rogue. Hyperdroid has an awesome kernal though, someones just hit over 8 hours screen on time with stock battery which is amazing. betterbatterystats would show you apps that are causing wakelock problems. I do use some app called gemini just so I can stop apps loading from boot (haven't been bothered to search for autostart apps). Fresh wipe is good sometimes though, fresh and clean is the way to go unless your upgrading from the same line of roms

DB i manage minimum screen on time with rom/kernel combo over 5hrs.....and it saved me money from getting a extended battery. why you think i aint been back on foxy yet...and even though i love raffaeles work (foxy and androidmeda is the top two) for me its all about battery life and that one has done it for me nxt stop though is ICS
Hey everyone,
I have been using my A501 (not rootet, everything stock) quite some time now without any issues. But lately it has become unusably slow.
Logcat gives me lines like:
99% TOTAL: 2% user + 4% kernel + 92% iowait + 0.1% softirq
Click to expand...

Note the extremely high iowait value. Seems like the CPU is busy waiting for IO operations and unable to execute much else.
What might possibly be the cause of this and what can I do about it?
Any ideas?
What is the best battery rom and your best SOT?
in my experience ; the best battery rom is eui 5.8.019s
I tested miui and battery was very correct in my opinion.
small eui v3 beta its good at the moment.

I have never got this much screen on time on the leeco le 2 (SD version) so I just had to share this with somebody... anybody really. Whomever has done better please feel free to share your awesome le 2 battery life with smallEUI, stock,or any other rom (doubtful).
So I just got 8 hours and 30 minutes of sot running smallEUI version 3 with illusion kernel v2.5. (Note: I used v2.5 because v3 uses lazy plug for CPU hot plugging which IMHO has far more battery drain than the stock Qualcomm core control) but I digress...
Anyways, I am a heavy gamer and frequently play real racing 3 for more than 1.5 hours in some days Today I decided to cut back and only played it for 25 minutes.This reduced gaming time enabled me to subject my phone to a more mixed use pattern. When I started I wasn't even looking to break any screen on time records but at around 21% battery remaining, I was at 7 hours SOT so I decided to keep using the phone normally until I ran it down to empty.
Here's some background to this achievement...
First off, I don't run anything on stock settings. I use a slimmed down EUI rom, a custom kernel to boot, and minor tweaks to the build.prop. I have done major tweaks to the custom kernel, use greenify in elevated mode, and block the recommended wakelocks on kernel adiutor app. I have also improved thermal thresholds to minimize throttling. When CPU thermal throttles, it leads to more power consumption because it has to stay on longer and use more CPU cycles to finish tasks that it could have completed much faster with high clock speed at the expense of negligible heating. I looked at the stock smallEUI thermal config and was shocked to find that the CPU starts throttling when it reaches temperatures as low as 38 degrees Celsius. (That's too low). The big cores are allowed to hot plug at a measly 40 degrees and at 42 degrees the system is allowed to turn off three of them. Only CPU 4, which is the first big core that controls the other 3 is exempted from being turned off due to this insanely low threshold. However, it doesn't escape the overall thermal tolerance which is set at 38-70 degrees. At which point, it will be doing just 883MHz before getting completely shut down! We all know (I hope we do) that big cores are generally more efficient at higher clock speed but someone must have missed the memo here. (Big cores are set to throttle down to 998MHz at just 50 degrees! Crazy, right). @iaureeel should look into this.
For monitoring, I use better battery stats xda edition, gsam battery monitor, and kernel adiutor overview page. I don't have WiFi so all data comes through 4G (the signal is usually above average to excellent) -- this phone has better reception than any other I've ever used ??
The usage:
Here's a summary of the notable things I did. You may browse the screenshots to see more.
First off: Games...
I played real racing 3 for around 25 minutes
Tried out a newly downloaded (on this same charge cycle) 3D game called war wings -- Around 20 minutes. Spoiler alert: it's awesome?
Starting with full charge and hammering the battery to about 15%, I can play real racing 3 for 4 hours non-stop.
Others:
I watched some YouTube over 4G for 30 minutes
I used brave to browse the web for just over an hour.
Side note: surface flinger showed up on BBS probably because I speeded up scrolling in build.prop. It shouldn't be this active but the power draw is probably not too significant.
How I did it
Recap of what enabled me to have this sot figure:
1. Optimized custom EUI-based ROM (smallEUI)
2. Custom kernel (heavily customizable and tweaked to kingdom come)
3. Greenify
4. Higher thermal tolerance for the CPU (it doesn't even get hot enough to be uncomfortable even at highest load. The plus for the battery here is that the CPU completes tasks much faster and then goes into a quick race to idle (thanks to a tweak I've added to blu_active governor for big cores)
5. No automatic brightness! I often get by with minimum brightness but when I need more I manually bump it up to 10-25%. 50 % is enough for me to comfortably use the phone outside. And not in direct sunlight because who can compete with the sun? Not any phone's display. THAT'S FOR SURE!
6. Cherry-picked build.prop tweaks
7. No Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and other naughty social apps that put your phone in a wakelock chockhold until its precious juice is depleted.
Conclusion:
I have never been one to hunt screen-on-time records (and wasn't in this case) but today has showed me a side of this phone that I didn't know existed. That's really good battery backup. I didn't think it was this easy but leeco did some clever things too in order to make it possible. First is charging the battery to 4.4 volts which increases charge holding capacity to 110% of the reference design. I don't recommend that you charge to 100% because it will be at the expense of battery life span. (Unless leeco uses a military grade battery like they do in the Coolpad cool 1 dual and LeRee le 3).
Another thing that helps is the inclination of EUI towards power saving. SmallEUI is even better because it saves power without hindering user experience. Notifications come on time and there is no stuttering even on stock everything.
Full disclosure: My phone is brand new(ish) at just one month old.
That's all for now... Check out the screenshots. As they say, the proof is in the pudding ?. There's a limit to the number of files I can attach so I've put the rest in a .zip file

The big cores are allowed to hot plug at a measly 40 degrees and at 42 degrees the system is allowed to turn off three of them. Only CPU 4, which is the first big core that controls the other 3 is exempted from being turned off due to this insanely low threshold. However, it doesn't escape the overall thermal tolerance which is set at 38-70 degrees. At which point, it will be doing just 883MHz before getting completely shut down! We all know (I hope we do) that big cores are generally more efficient at higher clock speed but someone must have missed the memo here. (Big cores are set to throttle down to 998MHz at just 50 degrees! Crazy, right). @iaureeel should look into this.
For monitoring, I use better battery stats xda edition, gsam battery monitor, and kernel adiutor overview page. I don't have WiFi so all data comes through 4G (the signal is usually above average to excellent) -- this phone has better reception than any other I've ever used ??
The usage:
Here's a summary of the notable things I did. You may browse the screenshots to see more.
First off: Games...
I played real racing 3 for around 25 minutes
Tried out a newly downloaded (on this same charge cycle) 3D game called war wings -- Around 20 minutes. Spoiler alert: it's awesome
Starting with full charge and hammering the battery to about 15%, I can play real racing 3 for 4 hours non-stop.
Others:
I watched some YouTube over 4G for 30 minutes
I used brave to browse the web for just over an hour.
Side note: surface flinger showed up on BBS probably because I speeded up scrolling in build.prop. It shouldn't be this active but the power draw is probably not too significant.
How I did it
Recap of what enabled me to have this sot figure:
1. Optimized custom EUI-based ROM (smallEUI)
2. Custom kernel (heavily customizable and tweaked to kingdom come)
3. Greenify
4. Higher thermal tolerance for the CPU (it doesn't even get hot enough to be uncomfortable even at highest load. The plus for the battery here is that the CPU completes tasks much faster and then goes into a quick race to idle (thanks to a tweak I've added to blu_active governor for big cores)
5. No automatic brightness! I often get by with minimum brightness but when I need more I manually bump it up to 10-25%. 50 % is enough for me to comfortably use the phone outside. And not in direct sunlight because who can compete with the sun? Not any phone's display. THAT'S FOR SURE!
6. Cherry-picked build.prop tweaks
7. No Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and other naughty social apps that put your phone in a wakelock chockhold until its precious juice is depleted.
Conclusion:
I have never been one to hunt screen-on-time records (and wasn't in this case) but today has showed me a side of this phone that I didn't know existed. That's really good battery backup. I didn't think it was this easy but leeco did some clever things too in order to make it possible. First is charging the battery to 4.4 volts which increases charge holding capacity to 110% of the reference design. I don't recommend that you charge to 100% because it will be at the expense of battery life span. (Unless leeco uses a military grade battery like they do in the Coolpad cool 1 dual and LeRee le 3).
Another thing that helps is the inclination of EUI towards power saving. SmallEUI is even better because it saves power without hindering user experience. Notifications come on time and there is no stuttering even on stock everything.
Full disclosure: My phone is brand new(ish) at just one month old.
That's all for now... Check out the screenshots. As they say, the proof is in the pudding . There's a limit to the number of files I can attach so I've put the rest in a .zip file

could you pls share how did you custimize he kernel ? if you could pls upload your kernel auditor profile or photos.

Could you please share me screenshots of ExKM or kernel aduitor and build.prop strings that you added. Btw, I want them for stock eui for 6 hrs SOT

I tested miui and battery was very correct in my opinion.

i never see a rom very bad with battery like the miui's rom on le 2 , version after version and this problem is not fixed
,i dont know why
what's version you talking about ?
stock battery life

in my experience ; the best battery rom is eui 5.8.019s

i am using it after installing custom rom on my phone but i am not getting same sot as i get before installing custom rom.
plz help me in this case, i locked bootloader of my phone too.
Hi

I have never got this much screen on time on the leeco le 2 (SD version) so I just had to share this with somebody... anybody really. Whomever has done better please feel free to share your awesome le 2 battery life with smallEUI, stock,or any other rom (doubtful).
So I just got 8 hours and 30 minutes of sot running smallEUI version 3 with illusion kernel v2.5. (Note: I used v2.5 because v3 uses lazy plug for CPU hot plugging which IMHO has far more battery drain than the stock Qualcomm core control) but I digress...
Anyways, I am a heavy gamer and frequently play real racing 3 for more than 1.5 hours in some days Today I decided to cut back and only played it for 25 minutes.This reduced gaming time enabled me to subject my phone to a more mixed use pattern. When I started I wasn't even looking to break any screen on time records but at around 21% battery remaining, I was at 7 hours SOT so I decided to keep using the phone normally until I ran it down to empty.
Here's some background to this achievement...
First off, I don't run anything on stock settings. I use a slimmed down EUI rom, a custom kernel to boot, and minor tweaks to the build.prop. I have done major tweaks to the custom kernel, use greenify in elevated mode, and block the recommended wakelocks on kernel adiutor app. I have also improved thermal thresholds to minimize throttling.

Hi. Good day, please how can you help me? I just bought this but it is consuming battery. So I decided to check online for solutions and I found this site. please help me I don't know so much about phone, I just want to enjoy the phone without having to worry about the battery or the high temperature (hot) problem. Thanks.

I have THE Answering for You and ALL other Le Membershipper`s...
If you have a Smartphone, You have to CHANGE your Battery between 12 to 18 Month`s. If you are working in Office and you Use the whole Day Wireless Lan? Then, you have to change the Battery between 12 Month`s and every Year behing the change!
And Dubble 3M Band for the Displayframe you have to Buy also. Oh, IF, you want to Change your Battery then you NEED a HOT Gun Pistol with Minimum 110 Degrees! Heat Up the Frameside about 5-10 Millimeters and DON`T Lift it UP in the Roundings of the Edges! They are Breaking!!
