CPU stuck at high clock speeds

Just flashed Myn's on my girlfriends phone with the stock kernel and now her CPU will stay anywhere from 600 - 998 but never lower than that. Needless to say it is killing the battery pretty bad. Why is it doing this? Should I flash another kernel?

Is setcpu installed on the device? Is so then what are the settings? Is the set on boot option checked?

No SetCPU. Tried installing it to set a profile but that didn't do anything so I just un-installed it.

Try wiping dalvik and cache and reinstalling the rom of choice.

I've had this issue before with numerous roms. I'm guessing it's because you either didn't wipe cache and dalvik cache, or that peticular kernel doesn't play nice with your phone. I'd really like to know what exactly is the problem as well....

I wiped data, cache, and dalvik-cache TWICE before flashing the ROM. Ill try wiping cache and dalvik and re-flashing the ROM. If that doesn't work I'll try one of netarchy's kernels.

Tried netarchys kernel and it didnt do anything. Tried to re-flash the ROM and it didnt do anything. Desperately trying to get this ROM to work

You could try the app SystemPanel lite to find what is using the CPU power.
Other than that try a different combo of roms and kernels.
It could just be the phone.

I have the full SystemPanel app. The top apps that use the most battery is of course System and Sense. The weird thing is, when it is at ~600 it says CPU usage is about 10%, compared to my phone that it is at 245 but still 10% usage. Weird. I am going to wait a couple of days and see if it is some sort of glitch and see how the battery is. I have had great success with netarchy's kernels, but I get INSANE battery life with the stock htc kernel.

What recovery are you using? Remember clockwork doesn't wipe correctly

If an app is constantly running it could keep your CPU speed up

[Q] Defy doesn't boot

Hi all,
i had installed cyanogen mod on my defy and all was perfect.
After that i tried to install defy_recovery-1218-0326-signed.apk and it says that was installed successfully.
I tried to boot in recovery mode and when i power up the phone it stays on the initial logo forever (cyanogen mod 7..).
I tried to flash my version founded here sbf.droid-developers org but it make the same things on boot...
What should I do?

yeah, i tried it now, i didn't know this method and it works...
But sorry man, what version should i install? Now I have 2.3.6 (i don't know why, it's the only version that work that i tried) but i would like to install Cyanogen Mod V7...
Can you explain me what should i do? Thank you very mutch!

So you flashed and 2.3.6 sbf? Do you have a Defy+ or a normal defy?
If you have a normal defy and you have a green lense, you can't use your camera anymore (kernel limitation) even not on CM.
To install CM7, download a Defy+ nightly (even if you have a normal defy, cause you are on defy+ kernal) form here: http://www.defy-cm.net/
You must not use defy_recovery-1218-0326-signed.apk any more.
Use 2nd init form: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032212
When you have installed 2nd init: reboot, wait for blue led, press volume up,go to custom recovery, install the zip downloaded earlier.

But to install 2ndInit i have to get the root permission, how can i do it? With oneClick it doesn't work....
Yes I have the Defy MB525...
EDIT:
yeah, i get root permission and i installed 2ndinit but what should i do to get into recovery mode? I don't understand
RE-EDIT: I had to press power down button, not up...

I did the same mistake on my Moto defy ... did you get it to boot back up and if so how ? Ty to whom ever helps

Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

Yeah it doesn't get past the HTC screen when I try to boot it, I've tried everything, it unrooted and stock right now. I can't use adb but I can use fastboot, I've tried the T-Mobile updates and ruu but nothing helps. I don't know what else to try.

[Q] How to overclock Defy+ (MB526)

SetVsel or SetCPU doesn't go beyond 1000 GHz on my Defy+ (MB526).Many of you have overclocked your Defy+, Please Help
(Device is rooted)

Install root explorer or miexplorer from apoonet(check the dev thread).
Goto system/bootmenu/config and edit overclock.conf file for the desired values. Enjoy, you may have to reboot. You can see if they are effective or not using cpuspy app, install from market.

or you could also go into the custom recovery and overclock it from there
i find that much better

how do you overlock the defy form the recovery menu?

Your must have the option to do so .... and it's in the boot-menu and not recovery menu

Well, then thing is that i tried to boot into the 2nd init boot menu and the 2nd init menu but the phoen restarts and gets stuck int he motorola logo. DO i need to press any key or do anything after reboot? ,

Seems that there is kernel in-compatibility ..... what ROMS did you flash. ?

Defy+ stock.kernel doesn't allow OC-ing...I had to go to bootmenu and enable all modules and of course, overclock via CWM.It worked...
Those complaining of Defy+ not being compatible with SetVsel.that's your answer

CPU settings won't stick, revert to stock at screen off?

Rooted, unlocked and I can't get CPU settings to stick. They keep reverting back to stock 1300. Tried Aokp, cm10, eclipse and multiple kernels, motley, clemsyn, etc. Used system tuner, setcpu, romtoolbox, etc. You can be in the program and set the frequency and it will work, then push screen off button, and back on and its back to 1300 instantly. Never had this problem before.
Any thoughts on how to proceed here.
Thanks

CPU settings won't stick, revert to stock at screen off
Hi, I'm having the same issue here, running Trinity kernel and CM10, as well as the latest busybox on my Nexus 7. However, I can't seem to get the maximum CPU frequency to stick, it reverts back to 1300MHz when I lock the screen. If anybody has a fix for this it would be really good to have it.
Thanks.

Check out the lean kernel thread. In the downloads there is a powerhal42-lk-nofreq.zip. just flash and you're good to go.
