I had the same issue but instead of using auto detect settings i used generic qsd and its been spot on since.
Might wanna try that

Your guys should check the "set on boot" box in the main menu.
After that, set profile and remember to ignore the setcpu if you are using task killer apps

It was still losing its settings which was very strange, however having it set to a pre configured profile (QSD) its been fine.

your phone needs to be ROOTed, there are some post where you can find how to Root your phone

Phone needs to be rooted and some superuser versions have an issue remembering settings at startup. Versions 2.1 and 2.3+ don't have the issue. Pretty sure it was the 2.2 versions that have the issue. (It happened on both nexus and x10).
Edit, just wanted to clarify that Im talking about the version of the superuser application.

Hi all...New here and...French
So, I've got a question, a really simple one tho but anyway. I do have Freex10 bata 4 and GG 1.4 on my Xperia and setcpu is already install. The version is 1.6, and I want to know If I can update to the lastest on the market safetly ?
Thanks for any responses !
Great information everywhere here too in fact !

You can update safely Furilax

What's a good (safe) clock-value to set it to for maximum performance? I don't care about battery drain, as it is charging for more than 18 hours a day.
Thanks guys!

Set CPU not saving SU permissions

Hey everyone,
I've been searching around on this, and haven't had any luck thus far.
I'm running CELB 2.8, and have set CPU running. Every time I wake my phone from sleep it seems rather slow, so I click my setCPU widget to make sure my settings are correct. Every time I open the app it says its given SU permissions. Does this mean that my settings aren't sticking?
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but to no avail as it still does the same thing. I have it installed on the phone and not the SD card. Has anyone else experienced this issue or can duplicate this? Thank you!

Flash setcpu 2.1.
Hmmmm. Could have swore I had 2.1. I have 2.01 lol. Thanks.
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
oh I'm sorry I'm a moron lol I meant flash superuser 2.1, not setcpu 2.1. Keep your setcpu the way it is.
Haha okay. Thanks for the help. Works like a champ!

Trouble with root apps.

Is anyone having issues/know how to fix root apps hanging? It only happens with root apps but I open them and they are just a black screen, so I wait and eventually force close. I think all my root apps have done this at least once, but mainly have problems with:
CPU Spy. 8/10 hangs.
Autokiller memory optimizer 2/10 hangs
Set CPU 1/10 hangs
Use about 8 others but they have only done this maybe 1/100 so not too much bother.
Am wondering if its something to do with superuser apk.
CPU spy is really bugging me, any help/advice much appreciated.
Edit: CPU spy works fine once I get it going, until I reboot, then it gives me grief again.

First when you root your x10 you need to restart your x10 before rooting any app.

What is your phone running at the moment, a ROM or SE Firmware? And your baseband, so I can figure out your problem better.
Did you overclock with set cpu, that can mess up things?
Am running wolfs v006 with custom kernel, however these apps used to hang before I installed new kernel. So yeah I use overclock, but only last couple of days and had this problem like forever lol. Same issue on Z's freex10 beta 4.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I have an idea that is a slight idea, how about you reflash the ROM and not put any modifying system apps on the phone and carefully watch which apps you put on the phone.
Did you do a nandroid flash back up to restore your settings in the ROM? Also, did you properly wipe full system, all caches before flashing the ROM? This could of been your issue too.

Yeah I have backups for about 4 different roms so that's no prob. I think its autokiller doing it tho, will uninstall all root apps and try one by one.

Was set CPU. Now using CPU master its all fine, and am saving about 5-10 seconds off my boot time. Guess it wasn't working well with my setup!

[Q] Help with phone being awake almost 100% of the time

As the title says, my p500 is awake almost 100% of the time. Even with the screen off (please look at the attached image).
The only apps running at startup (used Startup Manager app to check it) are Go weather, Maps, Market, Minimalistic text and Quick System Info Pro. On my home screen (Go Launcher EX) I use Go Weather, minimalistic text and Winamp widget, nothing else.
Is there somewhere I can look at or maybe some app I can install to see what is causing it?
I'm using Mik's CM7 6.5.5 and franco.kernel v16.1 bfs (this one gives me almost 30% more battery life than the newer versions) and running at 729/245mhz Smartass.
Uninstall maps and you'll be back in action
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I can try that but I've always used Maps and it never happened before. Sure it eats some resources but I dont remember it causing the phone to be awake.
Uninstalled maps and phone is still awake.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Reflash the kernel. And I agree with you.I found the V16.1 better than the later updates

PROBLEM SOLVED
I was planing on sending the phone to repair on monday, but at the time and with the phone here i didn't want to give up so i thought of rooting it and reinstalling the firmware, but nothing worked and the phone didn't recognize that it was connected to a computer. So i kept search other ways to reinstall the firmware and came across a website that talked about a "secret menu" code for the phones and i remembered that this phones must had one and that from there i could do something, i did. From there i did a factory reset and, unlike the ones i did before by going to settings-privacy, when the phone rebooted it told me right way that it was connected to the computer. I also tested the problem with the screen light and so far, so good.
So, if anyone else has this problem(sannielyk reportedly had) what i did was entering the "secret menu" code : 3845#*500# and did the factory reset from there.
Apparently it was a software problem or something that wasn't installed right by the lg service. But so far everything is good, and i hope it keeps that away.
Thanks for the help

I think I've found the villain. I started manual proccess of uninstalling apps and letting the phone sleep for an hour or so to check awake times. After I removed Live Holdem Pro the phone finnaly slept through an entire hour.
Still have to test through a complete battery cicle tho.

Yes, I have tried it. It helps when you do not use 3G/HSDPA. As soon as u enable internet and browse the net and after that disable the internet, the Fast Dormancy process starts to drain the battery again and again. Disabling the Fast Dormancy does not always work.
I swhitched to 2G and then it stopped draining the battery, but it is not the solution, as I can't live without 3G/HSDPA... Don't know what to do

[Q] Setcpu?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me by explaining to me how to use setcpu? I'm trying to use it to save battery. The only problem is that I have no idea on how to use it, I mean what profiles do I use, how do I even configure profiles.
I've searched but honestly I don't understand a thing but I know I need to learn, any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

During night, you can set it low... max 600 or whatever ...
Setcpu, juice defender...
Use tasker instead! Im not be able using tasker because instable rom... actually idk yet, what's the issue...
It might need a little more time learning to use it... but, i recomended this apps... not only cpu state, you can even using it to fully automatic... fully control... not only time... you can set it low, everytime it sleeps... network control also.... give it a shot....

Is ur phone rooted? Without root superuser, u can't used it.... look at tab profile... u can create profile from that tab.... u have to check it... if u want to use the profile... if u didn't check it... it just run how it supposed to do on the first tab...
That's mean... if u just have one profile... example.. from 9am till 13pm... it's mean this profile active during this hour... and then out of that... he back to the normally used.... u can create as many profile as u like... check cpu gov... then u will know what is it mean... there're hotplug, performance, userspace, demand etc... u have check ur phone first... not every phone have the same...
Good luck...

[Q] Launcher performance

Am I the only one that is sometimes seeing major lag when an app closes and the launcher redraws? In by case it is sometimes over a second.
Well known issue that has been mentioned already in numerous threads. I use SS launcher so don't have that problem.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
the stock launcher will not lag on its own, check for background cpu utilization with os monitor app and disable those apps .

If you read carefully enough, Dr. Paul, you'll find that you are on ALF2!
Is LF2 only through Kies? I got the OTA update to LF1, and that's all the OTA updater says is available. Or it's just VodaGroan being rubbish as usual.

Been looking in the forum and found this issue under another heading. I fixed it by rooting and changing the davlik VM heap size from 256 to 128mb. How did Samsung manage to screw this up?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Another thing to consider is whether you've got power saving on or off? If it's on and CPU power saving is turned on, the CPU runs at 800mhz rather than 1400mhz. This will show a noticeable difference in smoothness.

i just wanna share how i got rid of the lag and home respawn issue on my sgs3... i'm not saying it is a fix but these are the only things i did that work for me... there is no harm in trying...
1. disable double tap home button to activate s voice.
2. disable s voice using application manager
3. reboot... and after 3 days, no lag or whatsoever... but there was always the home respawn thing when i'm running a lot of apps on background...
4. uninstall facebook app... this app seems to eat most of the memory... reboot... now, i don't need to close any program running thru task manager... i check it and see 12 apps running but never had a respawn.. all is well now... i don't even think of rooting flashing a rom now... everything just seems to be running so well...
**i know some of you would say that it's not an option to uninstall FB app, i for myself would love to use it but i'd rather have a lag and respawn free sgs3 and use the FB desktop mode... but then again...that's just me...
