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.

I get about 18-24 hours per charge. I am overclocked to 1.15. I actually use the phone and would consider myself a moderate user.

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.

And jase. How long does your phone battery last?

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 just moved to baked snack this morning, so I can't really give a good battery usage.
What are you guys getting in the new rooted 2.2 rom.

Hi, what the normal idle battery temp in i9000?
I found mine about 32-33 degrees Celsius - is this normal on standby?
Same here, I guess that's normal.
Noob Q here: How do i find out my battery temp? Is there an app for that?
what are the normal battery temp levels for the galaxy tab? Mine goes from around 28 deg Celsius idle to 43 deg Celsius when charging or prolonged use. Are these safe operating levels or is it getting too hot? At 40 degrees i can already feel the back panel getting warm so im a bit worried about the processor. Im not overclocked and even undervolted by 100mV.

Trust me, samsung is giving us all a total headache. For once, my battery temperature went to 53degrees Celsius. I laughed so badly when i saw that.

Just curious, is your battery charging and discharging normally?
Mine's going from 14'C (outdoors) to 35'C max. (playing while pluged). Normal voltage.
Sent from my GT-P1000 Overcome 1.4.2 using XDA Premium App
The most mine ever goes to is about 36 C. both in use and in charging. Overclocked to 1.2ghz
It chatges and discharges normally, i get abot 26-30 hours out of it with average use. I do live in the Philippines though so that may be the normal temp for me. Just want to know what the danger zone is for his device when it cones to temperature.

Normally it is within range between 27-28 and 38 (C) on my overclocked up to 1.2GHz . When charging and running in the same time - temperature may be a bit higher, because the battery becomes warmer during charging. Important factor is software used for measuring, I use 2 different applications and always compare the readings.
Im just curious what temperature you guys are getting on idle and heavy load such as antutu.
Lowest i get with idle is 40c degrees celcius and 50c with general use browser etc but with antutu i get up to 70c+ and then shutsdown.
I monitor it with system tuner and notification packages so i can monitor it real time with app usage.
I have recently bought this phone.
I had tested this device with the heavy loads usage.
Like by doing multitaskings,antutobenchmark testing,and playing HD games like modern combat 5.
I have noticed that my device max. CPU Temp reaches upto 75° C
And it's max. Battery temp. Reaches upto 45°C
So plzzzzz tell me . Have I got a defective piece or its normal with this device??
Is it a defective piece or a normal piece??
