Hi all,
Has anyone tried using SetCPU on his rooted legend? I tried on my non rooted one just too have a look at the CPU frequencies, to see how it behaves at idle and so, and while max is 600MHz the min is "only" 480MHz.
Doesn't that sound a bit high for the min frequency? The snapdragon is clocked at 1GHz and idle is 250Mhz. Has anyone tried lowering the idle frequency on the legend to gain some battery life?
Hi Bricolo_fr,
I found this entry in the FAQ of SetCPU documentation fount here (http://www.pokedev.com/setcpu/):
"Why aren't there more speeds to choose from?
The speeds which the CPU can run at is in part a kernel limitation and in part a hardware limitation. Attempting to set the CPU frequency to anything else won't cause any changes in CPU speed. On some devices, the kernel can be modified to enable certain other frequencies. There are other speeds that would be useful, the capabilities of the processor itself often hinders which frequencies are available on a device."
Anybody has the skills for making a kernel change?or some ideas for us being able to use this properly?
Hi,
Today I rooted my legend and tested again SetCPU. At the begining, it was only possible to set CPU from 480 to 600 mhz, but then I red this in SetCPU documentation:
http://www.pokedev.com/setcpu/
--------------
10. Disabling Perflock
On most stock HTC kernels and some custom kernels, HTC has enabled a driver called "perflock" that constantly resets SetCPU's Max and Min settings. This does not apply to mostly "Google experience" HTC devices such as the T-Mobile G1, the myTouch 3G, any Google development device, or the Nexus One. It does, however, apply to "HTC Sense" devices such as the HTC Hero, Droid Eris, HTC Desire, HTC Incredible, EVO 4G, and myTouch Slide. Non-HTC devices never have perflock enabled.
SetCPU can disable perflock on newer HTC kernels, giving you control of the Max and Min settings of the CPU. To do this, press the Menu button on your device in the Main tab and choose "Disable Perflock." Read through the notice and then press the button in the dialog. If successful, you should be able to change the frequency with SetCPU. If this process fails, please e-mail the developer with your kernel version and device so support can be added.
Keep in mind that disabling perflock does not enable overclocking, though some overclocked kernels may require perflock to be disabled. Overclocking, in most cases, requires a custom kernel.
-------------------
So, in the last version of SetCPU there is an option in the menu called "Perflock Disabler" With this option, it is possible to select the minimun frequence to any value from 0 to 600 Mhz.
I have not been able to modify maximun to a value higher than 600 mhz (overclock) but I think the best target is to reduce battery consumtion decresing the minimun mhz value. Actualy I set minimum 128, maximun 600.
so, are you sure you could set it to the minimum of 128? because i think it doesn't work actually...at least without a modified kernel
I got a min at 19 MHz. to 600 Mhz.

Yes. Also confirmed with the app Os Monitor:
-Saling range: 122880-600000
-Frequency range:19200-600000
-Governor: ondemand
-Current: 122880
Software version: unbranded 1.31.405.4 (just rooted with Monodaco method and applyed all OTA updates)
In SetCPU Info:
-Time in state:
19200: 22
122880: 1169071 (Currently I set minimum at 122880)
128000: 0
245760: 269491
480000: 362472
600000: 347583
SetCPU in Legend allows the following governors: userspace, ondemand, and perfromance. Ondemand works fine. Userspace and performance makes extrage things (i tested quickly, to be honest)
I defined several profiles in SetCPU, depending of battery chage, and seems to work fine. But, I did not enable "Set on boot" option in SetCPU and need to activate "Perflock Disabler" in SetcPU menu everytime I reboot Legend (I prefer to test a SetCPU a few days before enabling "Set on boot")
well...this is nice... after disabling the "perflock" option...
I set the minimum value to 19mhz....lol... with "ondemand" management of the cpu...
I think I'have seen a HUGE improvement of the battery...When I mean HUGE, I really mean HUUUUUGE!
Like, for a 12hours use always with 3g data on,and 2 hours of wireless...lost only 30% of battery...
Testing today for more results...
I use the profile manager in SetCpu to set the CPU to 128-256 while screen off, max mhz while charging, etc.
I have seen big improvements.
Yes, battery improvement is very nice. This solution is great.
I am testing a profile to 122-245 while usb charging. So, when I use Googla Mobile Navigation it is able to load a bit battery while using GPS (normaly drains battery a bit while charging)
out of charge at 6am...it's now 10am...3g ON...wireless ON now for 2hours...
So, in resume, on 4 hours of use the battery loss - 6%
At this rate, and with these settings it should last for about 66hours, about 2,7 days.
Let's see...

I can only say...in 3g mode and with the wireless ON 90% of the time from 6am to 00.00, i had more than 40% battery left at 00.00 when i went to bed.For me it's a new record.

In my case, tested yesterday:
Battery consumption:
battery at 100% at 10:00 am. 3g data on 1 minute every 15 minutes (JuiceDefender), 30 mínutes call and 8 emails received and red a long de day. Battery was at 41% at 1:00 am. I spent the day in a place with low 3g network (between 1 and 2 bars in the top right corner)
SetCPU Configuration:
-Profile 1: when battery is between 50% and 100%: min 122 mhz, max 600 mhz
-Profile 2: when battery is between 30% and 50%: min 122 mhz, max 480 mhz
-Profile 3: when battery is between 0% and 30%: min 122 mhz, max 245 mhz
So, battery save is very nice.
this is soooooo interesting....
I couldnt find the app in the market...i found the apk in the HTc Dream forum...version 2.01 by coolbho. Is it ok to use that ?
i think so...
in worst scenario...it won't run lol...(i think!)
If i use linpack i can see someone with a legend that runs on 711mhz? Am i missing something can we overclock..

I've made some profiles too, and it's working really well.
Are you guys using the auto detection of the device? I've used it in the first time, but it detected my device as a Hero(?) since the max frequency was only 528mhz. Then I've changed the device and selected MSM7x27 manually and got the 600mhz max and many middle frequencies like 120, 122 and 128mhz. Now I've changed the device again to auto detection and it worked this time, got the 600mhz max, but less middle frequencies (no 120 or 400mhz). Also, i'm using 122mhz as the minimum frequency in all profiles, isn't 19mhz too low? Or the demand feature really works that well and I will not even notice any difference?
wasup!
19mhz is not too low, i've used it and had a huge increase in battery life.
I am using profiles also at the moment.

Hi,
You can download from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
If you like the app, you can donate getting from Maket. Look for "setcpu for root users". It is only 1.99 USD.
Hey guys, I posted these settings in the main thread of darkstone, and it worked good for some, i'm making this thread to show the setting i'm using to conserve bettery.
I have been using Setcpu and advanced task killer combined and so far my battery life is amazing. I had the phone unplugged and fully charged at around 7 pm, used it for few calls and some gaming and also downloaded some apps, it was at 70% when i went to sleep at 4am, now it is 10 am and the battery is 66%.
You need SetCpu, you can get it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
And Advanced Task Killer found on market for free.
I thought I would share those settings hopefully they work for you guys too,
For SetCpu:
Main Tab: max 1113, min 245, ondemand, check set on boot
Profiles: 1- Screen Off, max 245, min 245, ondemand, Priority 100
2- Battery <25%, max 652, min 245, ondemand, Priority 0
Advanced: Sampling rate= 20000
Up Threshold= 35
leave the rest at 0's and check set on boot and apply.
For Advanced Task Killer:
Go to setting, then auto kill level chose "aggressive", and auto kill frequency set it to "when screen turns off"
I'm using radio 2.12.50.02_2 and stock Tmobile US ROM HSPL3
I hope that helps some of you.
I've had major issues with battery drain. The best I've got so far is about 5% to 7% drain per hour on standby.
I'll try your recommendations too.
Battery is the only thing holding be back from using Android as a full time OS.
Do you charge your battery in Android or in Winmo?
got settings from other thread, thought they were working well turned out they were not lol had to jump back builds
Battery life is keeping these from being fully usable. I can't make it through a full day, I have tried juice defender, set CPU (max fre 800, 245 w/ screen off), turning sync off. I always get at least 5% drain/hr at idle and obviously worse than that when I use the phone.
I am going to charge overnight tonight in win mo then boot android tomorrow morning and see if I can get through the day tomorrow.

lol yeah its strange that those settings work for some people and not for others, I guess it depends on the radio/ROM they have.

Ok let me know if these settings work for you.
I have the same config in this build
[BUILD][17.08.2010][mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.5b][Kernel: huanyu 2.6.32.9 #6]
and it is working well even there!
I hade 11 hours down to 15% left of battery yesterday.. and I hade it on surfing by wifi and trying some new games and hade a lot video streaming through youtube the last 2-3 hours.
Before I couldnt last for more than 3-4 hours and the phone got very varm....so this i a start and a very usefull app to use!
If you want to extend it further turn of "data connection" at the point you know your not gonna use the phone for a while.
@Notorious.Marwan, won't having setcpu at 1113 for both max and min be draining the battery more as opposed to having it at 1113 for max and 245 for min? or would the difference be not noticeable at all?
Notorious.Marwan, those settings will not be very good for battery life.
You have max and min set to full clock speed...this is going to use a lot of battery power.

Your problems with battery life are due to SD card usage. Plain and simple. Try a class 2 card for Max performance battery wise!!!

I am going to try this.....I was on Darkstones HD2Froyo without setcpu and batterly lasted only 6hrs maybe even less.......
Now i am using Mattc-NexusLeo_v1 build w/ the lastest kernel, used the default or suggested setcpu settings from one of the xda members and i am never at full 100% only 99% or 98% and gives me about 8-12 hours of batt life.
I will try your settings and report back in 24hrs with an update, thanks again for the info!

Also too...Something that I missed at first...In the Advanced Task Killer settings...you have to ignore SetCPU or it will kill it when you turn the screen off and defeat the whole purpose.
Still ridiculous battery drain. 99%->93% in 27 minutes. Using mattc 1.5b.
I've tried the following:
-SetCPU
-juicedefender (data on only when screen unlocked)
-calibrate battery
-delete batterystats
Still need to try a class 2 card versus the class 4 the phone came with.

UPDATE:
I set my CPU main to "ondemand" at 94% within 30 mins I was at 74%. So I charged for about an hour back to 99% setcpu main screen back to "conservative"..
Today 8/21
- 5am - 99%
- 7am - 90%
- 730am - back on charger
-10am - FULL%
-11am - 95%
-2pm - 85%
- 3pm to 8pm, this is when i got locked up and sent to jail for 5 hours, soooo now I am at 59%
Sooo, in conclusion for mattc NexusLeo Builds vs Darkstone, keep everything the same except your main screen
Max 1113600
Min 245000
Scaling conservative
set on boot
thank you good night
I have found the best combination is Advanced Task Killer and Juice Defender. Don't even need Setcpu with the combination of the 2 above, meaning your build runs as fast as it can, even overclocked I can get easily 1 day out of it. Overnight drain is ~15-20%.
Is it worth it - in terms of speed, fluidity and no screen lag - to set the max value as 1113, instead of the default (998)?
I'm always thinking that we're burning the CPU and draining much more battery.

I thought that you needed to go the other way, as in getting a class 4 or 6 card?
I've got a class 2 SD card and getting crap battery performance
1. Dont set any of them higher then 1075. I've found that on multiple HD2's that higher then that causes instability because the chip doesnt like to be pushed that hard.
2. I have my primary profile set to 1075 max, 614 min, and getting good results.
3. Set your primary to interactive, and all profiles to interactive EXCEPT your low batter profile.
4. Add these profiles:
Temp >
Charging/Full
Batt < then
Screen off
-Temp > Set the temp around 40 degrees C. Set to interactive. Max around 576, min to 245. Reccommend auduable warning on. Priority to 100%
-Battery <. Reccomend you set to around 30% battery. Powersave mode, max around 576 or so, min at 245. Priority at 90%
-Charging/Full Max to 1075, min to somewhere in the 500 or 600's, or higher if you want. Interactive, and Priority at 80%
-Screen off. Set max to 576, min to between 300-450. DO NOT set min to 245, as this may cause a screen freeze when it tries to wake up. Interactive, and priority to 50%
Thus far, this combination of settings has, on the multiple devices i've been playing with (about 6 total at the moment) is giving the best battery life, and the least amount of screen freezes on wake up.
Thanks for sharing these. AFAIK setCPU is quite important to the stable and productive (sans improved battery life) of Android on our beloved's.
Personally, I've taken to 245/245 for sleep mode. I haven't noticed a "groggy" wakening, but maybe I'm alone here...otherwise I like your settings.
Thanks again for taking the time to post.
android can run perfectly at 650+ mhz max, 245 min

I used to use 245/245 on sleep, but noticed a 4-5 second delay on one of the devices.
Actually, that may have to do with your SD card itself. my phone (running Bangsters 1.3b build) has a rare delay on awake, and a class 4 card.
Another HD2 running darkstone has a consistant delay, 245/245 and its running a class 6.
And still another has no delay, and is set to 245/245 but the stock non-speed rated SD card..
I have constant screen freezes on any build i use. bangsters1.3b has the lowest. it only freezes when i am in a phone call and the screen turns off. It lasts for about 15 seconds to 1m. then recovers. makes for some interesting post ended phone call conversations.
Trying your settings, MadRabbit.

What exactly is the interactive governor? And why not set the mins to 245 so the processor is scaled down when its not being used?

Minimums may cause an issue with the phone when it wakes up from sleep, especially if you have a higher class memory card.
I've noticed that my usual drain became slow during last hour, I'll report better news tomorrow, leaving device in stand-by at 69% battery left.
Ok, i didn´t think i was that stupid at this but now i don´t know anymore
I´ve searched both in andoids market and on the XDA app on the phone but i can´t find the app setCPU.

thanks man! just tried your setting, and then used current widget to check : 4mA when the phone was in sleep mode. This is the lowest result i've ever have ( i got 7~9 mA before)
ive ran this setting today and battery its definitely draining slower... ill report in a few days of using these settings...
I use it until this morning and I find that very good.

I hope you're not angry !
Thanks a lot
Thanks! I will try your settings, mine were a little off and gave me 45mA in standby One question though, what sample rate do you use? mine is still default (50000).
I have setCpu 2.03 installed but i can't find the Interactive setting?
Where is it, or do i have the wrong setCpu version?

Alright guys, I've had my Dinc for almost a week now, and I think I've found a pretty good set up as far as what I need goes.
I am a professional auto detailer so I have my headphones in about 8-10 hours a day. I LOVE pandora and normally if you play pandora it will kill your phone within 4 hours.
SOOOOOOOO I decided to create a little survey to see what Kernel/Rom, O/C app, Governor, Profiles/Settings, Notes, etc.
Please guys share your settings, I would love to try out everyones setups and see what really is the ULTIMATE set up for the Droid incredible
Please everyone stick to the format just so its easily understandable for everyone who isn't part of the forums or doesn't understand what everything is.
I'll start with mine
Rom - Stock Plus
Kernel - GingerTiny
O/C app - SetCPU
Governor - On Demand
Profiles/Settings - (1) Screen Off - Priority 100 - On Demand - 245 max - 128 min
(2) Battery <101% - Priority 50 - On Demand - 960 max - 128 min
Notes - I've found I can last about 10 hours streaming radio the whole time
Also, I've found that IheartRadio uses less resources than Pandora, Thus using less battery.
When I'm not streaming any music either, I have had my phone stay on the SAME percent - 66% - for 10 hours STRAIGHT and then It stayed on 65% all night when I get home, and when I woke up in the morning it was only on 60%

Also, I've found that IheartRadio uses less resources than Pandora, Thus using less battery.
When I'm not streaming any music either, I have had my phone stay on the SAME percent - 66% - for 10 hours STRAIGHT and then It stayed on 65% all night when I get home, and when I woke up in the morning it was only on 60%

Rom - Touch Of Blue
Kernel - Latest GingerTiny
O/C app - No-Frills CPU Control
Governor - SmartassV2 (245 min / 998 max)
I/O Scheduler - SIO (Set with No-Frills)
Voltage Control - IncrediControl (-25v all freqs min and max)
Profiles/Settings - None, they are not recomended or needed as the kernel has a built in sleep mode.
Changing from Ondemand to almost any other governor and slightly undervolting, will greatly increase your battery life.
And not using a sense rom will add 2 to 4 hours depending on use in my experience

I'm gonna try this out today and see how it well it works with streaming music all day. The reason I've set profiles is because I feel like when I'm playing Pandora andthe screen is off, it will force it to go to the lowest voltage I have set, whereas if I don't set profiles it will play at whatever voltage feels nessecary. That's just the way I see it, if anyone can confirm or deny this let me know.
BTW nice addition to the survey, Idk why I didn't add io scheduled in the first place lol

thanks for information..this is quite interesting...i gotta try this out
The phone doesn't sleep when music is playing so then what speed is running can influence battery. If you're curious try it without any profiles and you can still use ondemand.

I do use an app called Automateit PRO which I have used to create many different custom "rules". Every rule has a "trigger" and an "action". Some of my rules are used to automatically disable (or enable) 3G, Wifi, and GPS at certain times and/or situations that are appropriate. That really helps with battery usage...and its convenient that I don't need to do the enabling and disabling manually. But streaming music would require pretty much constant data connection of one kind or another.
My custom rom setup
I'm running CyanogenMod 7.1 on my Dinc.And Go Launcher Ex With Ice Cream Sandwich 3D Van Theme overclocked with Cyan to 245min. 1036 max. So smooth an fast.

Things that i did for my battery
lower brightness
sync off
gps off
about voltages,
lagfree / sio
min 100 / max 800
no live oc & deep idle on
yet, still i lost approximately 8~10% / hour
i really dont what's my problem
Maybe you have a wakelock?
I set a cpu profile for screen off at 400mhz, 1075mV. Matrix kernel seems to be the best for battery life, as well....you may wish to try it out I run overclocked @1200mhz with my screen off profile, and it gets me through an entire day with normal use...when I plug it in at night I usually have 10-15% battery left
