How fast is everyone running their STRTrk/S300/8500/3125?
Mine is 100% stable running at 252mhz all the time. It makes videos and menus a lot smoother.
252 Mhz too
I've used it at 240 a bit...but I used OMAP Clock and it resets to 180 after a few minutes.
Is there a way to make it stay permanently at a set speed?

Well I could never get omapclockplus to work at making it stick, so I use Tornado Power Control and manually modify the speed in the registry so it goes up to 252 instead of stopping at 228.
could you please give us details on the registry keys and where to get the program. thanks in advance.

Install it and then open it and set CPU speed to "Ultra Fast" and make sure it is not set to "Automatic CPU Speed". I personally disable the CPU speed indicator because I think it clutters the screen, but that is your choice. Then exit and go into whatever registry editor you use.
And they keys to change are:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TornadoPowerControl\CPUAuto3
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TornadoPowerControl\CPUSpeed
Change them both to 252.
Exit your editor and then reopen Tornado Power Control. Don't change any of the speed settings from within or you will have to re-edit the registry. Just leave it running in the background and it will keep the speed at 252. You can independently verify with OMAPClock.

What happens when you restart?
Hi Since you stated to leave the Tornado Power Control open, what happens when you restart the phone?
Since the information is in the registry all I have to do is open the Tornado Power Control?
Thanks

I have it set to start up in the back ground when the device turns on, so if I restart, it automatically launches and overclocks without any intervention.
I noted that running omap clock at 252 makes yahoo go run much better. TPC with registry modifications does not. Thoughts and ideas?

It has more processing capacity at a higher clock rate...
Is v0.2 the latest omapclock?
I have version 0.2 from way long ago for my MPx220 - is that really the latest version of omapclock?
TIA,

Ok, I am having some problems with this on my StarTrek. For some reason, when I open up TPC, it keeps telling me that it can't map I/O and the initialization failed. Any help?

A search should have found the answer to this: you must application unlock your phone before any of the overclock utils will work.

I found the following problem with most cooked ROMs (also including the last official one from HTC) /I tried that on fresh installations in every case/
I like AutoLock feature. So I made a small .reg file to modify one small entry in registry.
The moment this feature is on - if the device becomes locked, the screen goes dim. Problem is - it stays dimmed forever. I tried thousand different solutions - many combinations of registry values, power options, etc. nothing helps. If I lock the device manually - no problem. only with autolock. Anybody knows how to make it work?
Regards,
Vojtek
Maybe you should post your script, so that someone can have a look. Did this work on some previous ROM? Or has it been an ongoing problem?
Try using SmartLock, found on this site.

The official HTC ROM that I used to have before recent official update from HTC - worked very fine with this little registry mod.
The modification is as follows:
HKCU->ControlPanel->Backlight->AutoDeviceLockEnable
default value = 0
I change it to 1. This is all I do after totally fresh ROM update. that causes the dim to go permanently on from the next lock (doesn't matter if it was caused by auto or manual). even If I get back with the value to 0 in registry - problem stays. soft reset (and value set to 0) eliminate the problem.
one more thing - I never use auto-light sensor. My backlight level is always set to 2. with auto-light sensor - autolock works OK. however I loose a lot of battery life since auto-light sensor never allows backlight levels lower than 4.

Vojtek
check out Lumos, it'll let you backlight go as low as you set it to

Thank You for the tip. The tool itself is great. However it is affected same way by the autolock. Autolock causes device to stay dimmed permanently - even with Lumos running.

First off... I'm new around here & still a little flabbergasted by everything WinMo, but this site has already helped me tremendously.
Secondly, I can confirm the AutoLock bug. I updated my Touch Pro to the latest official rom last night. While running through AdvancedConfig (i think...) I noticed the AutoLock option & enabled it. 10 minutes later I was freaking out that I had stuffed up my expensive new toy...
Disabled, rebooted & all is OK again.
First of all - Advanced Config has nothing to do with it (to defend the author).
Second - thank You for support. I could not find a solution for this problem anywhere and I spent hours googling. For the moment I thought that my TP is failed. Seems that nobody uses AutoLock these days. I don't know how everybody's doing it, but without locking, my TP calls to different people (especially from Favourites tab) from time to time...

I require a password/passcode level of security on my device - which the Lock/Unlock feature doesn't provide. Unfortunately, the current security implementation in WinMO 6.x doesn't allow the Today screen to be seen like the Lock/Unlock feature.
As a result of these shortcomings, most folks tend to use a 3rd Party lock application such as: S2U2, mLock, etc. as they provide the desired flexibility.
HTH,
very familiar with this issue. I'm working on it too. It affects the WM6.5 lockscreen for sure and I thought it was a problem with only that. Bugger that it affects official ROMs as well. Good info though, I can stop concentrating on the lockscreen and start looking at power mgmt.

SmartLock all the Way!!
First of all, thank you for your interest and feedback! Mostly due to your request I want to present you a new version.
Version 1.25 changelog:
1. Added Connections on/off
2. Added alarm - poor one
Version 1.20 changelog:
1. Added new profiles: WiFi on/off, Bluetooth (BT) on/off, Phone on/off. Added also Soft Reset.
2. Some minor changes.
Version 1.10 changelog:
1. Added half-hours (I think quarters are too much).
2. Hour format (24 or 12) is automatically changed depending on your regional settings.
3. I don't have VGA device, but I think now the screen is squeezed a bit so it can fit to VGA square screen. Please, try and tell me what happens.
4. Added sound profiles - low, medium, high and very high.
5. Number of settings increased from 4 to 15.
Please, download TProfiler120.CAB for latest version.
Automatically switches device sound mode(available profiles - sounds on, sounds off, vibrate, volume low, medium, high, too high), turns on/off wifi, bluetooth, phone mode and soft resets at selected hour and weekday and thus saves your battery power. Simple application, doesn't occupy memory. Tested only on HTC HD2 but should work on other devices too (TP2, Touch HD/Blackstone - tested thanks to replies to this thread).
It works fine on TP2
Great application.
It would be great if it had also a 24-hour mode .
It would also be great if we could set the device to change to a certain volume on the Ring and System. I like to turn my phone down to 2 notches on both of those and crank it back after 5pm.

Great application !
Feature request: time in quarter/half hours too.
You might want to add some additional 'rules'. If you have a different time schedule for every day in the week, 4 just aren't enough...
Awesome
Been waiting for a free app like this. The Connective Tools one is nice, but I love the continuing user driven development of XDA. The suggestions on here are great and I echo the setting the volume to a custom level and the quarter/half hours things.

+1 though 5 min time slots would be better. Are going to try and integrate the App so it will switch on calendar appointments?
just installed 1.10 on my HD, but when I start the app it alerts "Doesn't exist", and after tapping 'ok' the app doesn't respond anymore, actually the complete screen doesn't respond. Using the hardwarebuttons I can go back to my homescreen and then using the system taskmanager I can shut the app down after that everythings fine..
anybody got an idea? because it looks like a useful app to me
Dear Xsite3,
I think you had to wait for a while - when started first time the application takes more time (1-2 minutes).
Just installed v1.1 on my HD2 and i get the message attached. Any ideas?
When I try to start up TProfiler I get a message box that simply says "Doesn't Exist". After that I can click on the TProfiler icon all day long but nothing happens. Wonder what doesn't exist?
V 1.10 crashes for me
I was using version 1.00 with no problems on my HTC Fuze running WM 6.5. But version 1.10 crashes on startup with this error:
TProfiler.exe
InvalidCastException
at
Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ToInteger()

DeviceApplication1.Form1.Form1_Load()

at
System.Windows.Forms.Form._SetVisibleNotify()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Visible()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
at DeviceApplication1.Module1.Main()
The app appears to draw at least a portion of it's window, and then crashes, though it goes by too quickly to see just how much of it is drawn
I really like the app. I especially like the addition of half hours in this version, if I can get it to work.

Fellows, sorry for keeping you waiting - Please, try now - it should work.
i have it set up as follows:200MHz Minimum Slider, 1200MHz Maximum Slider, Conservative mode and just followed the instructions as per https://sites.google.com/site/projec...allation-guide, but every time i boot up my phone and i start setcpu my readings are 1000max 100min but my sliders are set as 200MHz Minimum , 1200MHz Maximum. i know there is an option to set on boot but according to the link it states not to:
"Do not configure profiles, do not configure for set on boot. Set manually. There is a known problem with SetCPU that incorrectly configures your system at boot if selected. "
so if i want the settings to stick i have to click on the slider and it sets them to 200MHz Minimum , 1200MHz Maximum.
any suggestions as doing this manually is a pain....

Until the bugs are fixed in the program, get used to manually setting it every time you re-boot your phone. Thems the breaks I'm afraid. Gotta set it manually, there is no work around until it gets fixed inside the program.

hmm sounds like an idea but how do i access /system/etc/init.d and i don't mind using SetCPU as i have a profile saved so that if my phone starts to overheat it will revert to the setting i have set up, i might just stick with it until SetCPU is fixed.

That idea is now brain fart? uhhhhhh. hahaha.
I'm also using 1.9.1 currently, and I use profiles, and use the "autodetect" option in setcpu. Haven't had any problems since.
Even though the sliders say 100min/1000max, it shows 200min/1200max.

Sorry this is somewhat off topic from the thread...but what's the benefits/pros of using SetCPU? And are there any negatives/cons to using it?
I'm not responsible for any problems caused by this on your device. It's your choice to apply these simple tweaks to your phone!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[These apps are NOT paid! Only setCPU is paid, you can get it from the Android Market! (All apps provided here are downloadable in de Android Market)]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Click to expand...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If these simple Android Market apps, cause any problems on your device it means you've got something unstable installed on your device! I never had problems with Autokiller and AutoRun Manager on any ROM.
Hey,
In this thread I will show you how to get a REAL boost on your Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10! This method could also improve performance and battery life on any other handset. This is compatible on Android 2.1, 2.2.1 and 2.3.x. (This way of boosting performance is without Systcl config! I suggest you to uninstall Systcl config, since it doesn't improve anything for me (and maybe for more persons here). I don't recommend you to use Autokiller on WolfBreak his CyanogenMod 6.1.3. He has already implemented these settings and also don't use this on Gingerbread Custom ROMS for the x10. Autokiller is not stable on it anymore. Just wait till I report more about it.
This method made me lose 0-2% in 9 hours on WolfBreak his Cyanogenmod 6.1.3 and ALL 2.1 ROMS! These simple apps, did improve my performance and battery life!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lets get to the point
Download this and this package, put in on your phone and install them!
Lets config it now
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open Autokiller.
Go to the tab Memory limits.
Now put these configuration into the 3 boxes. (If these values cause problems you can try lower values I will provide)
Hidden app: 150
Content provider: 160
Empty app: 170
Now press on Apply.
Lower values (Only use when you get problems with high values):
Hidden app: 82
Content provider: 90
Empty app: 92
Now press on Apply.
(Don't put these values listed above higer. If you do your device can start to malfunction)
Now press on the Menu button on your Device and tap on Settings. Now make sure Apply settings on boot is turned on! After turning it on, press on Advanced system tweaks. Now make sure that Battery and Memory management are turned on!
Exit Auto Killer by pressing the menu button and reboot your device.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now open Autorun Manager.
Now make sure every service that is listed in the tab Basic you don't need is turned off! Make sure you only turn off things in the tab Basic! After doing that, exit Autorun Manager with the Menu button and reboot your device.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This configuration only effects you device when your screen is turned off. Don't expect with this setCPU very big changes! But there will (must) be some changes in battery life) (Some people had big changes)
The settings here below won't cause any lag when coming from sleep (atleast for me). Even with heavy apps.
[To get the XDA-free version of setCPU take a look at this post. Credits for telling this are going to DooMLoRD]
This step has a payed app. You can buy it from the Android Market. The app is called ''setCPU''.
Buy setCPU from the Android Market. Now open it and do the following:
Tap on Show Other Frequency Sets and tap on the list on Nexus One/Snapdragon [QSD8x50]. Put
Now press left in the corner on the tab Main. Put in the scaling bar the maximal frequency on 998MHz. Now put the minimal frequency on 245MHz.
Now press on Scaling and choose out of the list Ondemand, after pressing on Ondemand turn ''Set on Boot'' on.
Now press on the tab that you can find next to Main. It's called Profiles. Make sure that ''Enable'' turned one and Notifications turned off. Then press on Add Profile. In the Edit Profile window you have to put the following settings:
Profile: Screen Off
Max: 384MHz (Don't put it lower or it can cause malfunctioning!)
Min: 245 MHz
Scaling: powersave
Priority: 100 (High)
Then press Save.
Then reboot your device and enjoy!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your x10 is now fully optimized with a few simple apps! Not only the battery but also the performance! Most people think it should improve battery, it's only more for performace. It can improve your battery.
And... Don't forget to press the ''Thanks'' button instead of saying Thanks in this thread
If you liked this and are able to, please donate to me
Have fun!

Interesting. Hard to believe the 0% in 9hours. I think that's massively exaggerated. Cellular standby at the min uses 0.5%-1% per hour. Even if you didn't turn your screen on during that entire 9 hour period, you would still have a drop of about 5%-10% in batt life.
But I'll bite and give it a test.

I didn't touch my phone in those 9 hours. I was just sleeping with alarm on
Looks interesting, but shouldn't be in the development section.

Yes, that's what I was saying, even then, cellular standby would eat up 0.5-1% of batt life per hour. Could be much higher if you're on a fringe area of your nearest tower among other factors. In a 9 hour period, in just standby and in perfect conditions it should have at the very least dropped 5%.
I mean this is just the nature of the beast with devices. Only way around this would be airplane mode, phone in sleep mode and not being used at all. Then the phone is pretty much dead and you might as well just have it turned off. Even then phones that are turned off actually bleed batt life. Albeit at a much slower pace, they still discharge while completely off.

Hi guys!
I've noticed recently a new power save get option in the power saving menu in settings called 'system power saving'.
I've never seen much point in using the specific power saving mode that you can set to kick in at x% because it doesn't seem to do anything I can't and don't do manually myself.
Does anyone know anything about this new setting? Turning it on i've noticed screen transitions are a little less smooth, but does this actually do anything useful?
Any ideas?
Many thanks!

I would be interested in finding out what this does as well.
I noticed that frame rates seemed lower in games, and the responsiveness is a little slower (not considerably, though).
Is there a list of what it actually does?
I've notice that my phone uses less battery in this mode that without it.

Well, I would hope so...
I do know that it does NOT disable background data (I still receive push emails with both Exchange and Gmail)
Camera and Auto-flash are still enabled.
Everything that typically gets turned off in order to save battery is still on as far as I can tell...
We know it saves battery... but how?
If we find out how, then our developers could probably leverage that information when making new ROMs.
I would just like to know if anything is being disabled that I don't want disabled... but I don't know what I don't know

Seriously?
I have mine overclocked to 1.6 GHz and the conservative governor and I have not noticed the time-in-state data to be changing from what it was without this option set.
You were right about the clock speed.
system power save does the following:
Restricts core speed (mine was capped at 800)
Lowers brightness
Changes UI frame rate
