i am using tazzfroyo 8.0 with collin_ph battery tweak (using CFS tweaks, disk boost, audio fix, underclocking, interactive governor, bfq scheduler)
when using pandora or the stock music application i can play fluid audio for around a minute before it gets extremely choppy to the point where i hear bursts of music every 5 seconds. once the phone starts playing the choppy audio it will not stop and the screen freezes until a just pull the battery. has anyone else had this problem or found a way to fix it?
underclocking is the issue...... your min should be no less than 245. i would recommend using the stock rom settings... there is no reason to underclock when using batt tweak

I've been experiencing lockscreen lag on all of the froyo ROMs I've flashed so far.
Tazz
KaosFroyo
etc...
Is anyone experiencing this, and have you found a work around?
Yes, I have been experiencing a lag on tazz. I just flashed it yesterday.

I have noticed that since the adw launcher/launcher pro type launchers rotate when you unlock the screen in a different orientation, the unlock is delayed because the phone is busy re-orienting the home screen. I've turned off the home screen rotation (I use Launcher Pro) and the lag is gone.
I actually don't have any lock screen lag with Tazz. The only time I notice a lag is when I am getting an incoming call. It takes awhile for the answer button and caller id to show up on my screen. I always think I am going to miss the call.
I am using ADW and I don't have homescreen rotation on.
I get the lag on Tazz Froyo.
Absolutely no lag on Kaos with stock launcher (not an ADW fan here). Also, no lag on CELBfroyo with launcherPro.
Folks that report lag issues coming out of sleep should report their sleep profile used with SetCPU - that's a huge wildcard that is more about the kernel's variable-frequency clock stepping behavior than the ROM.
Particularly if you are using minimum clock speeds less than 245 Mhz, or if you are also restricting the max clock to a low value.
There seem to be some pathological behaviors (even in the 2.1 OC kernels) if you use too low a clock speed, where the kernel gets temporarily "stuck" at low frequencies - and they can happen even if you have set up a reasonable max frequency with the "ondemand" governor.
Not saying that's what is happening here - but it is a huge wildcard when folks start comparing their results.

Remove SETCPU widget and turn off homescrren orientation, it stops launcher lag.
Turn up your screen off clock settings, you wont lag when getting a call either.

I'm fairly certain it is 245min, 528max. It doesn't actually have profiles set up, just a running min-max.

Oh okay Thanks. So that means we could set the sleep profile to 528 max, On Demand 40% threshold and 200 powersave bias, would make it do even better than stock eris? Concerning battery life
Try TazzFroyo v6 that was released yesterday.

Slightly lag but nothing unbearable by any means. The Eris hardware isn't cutting edge you know.
I have 160min on tazz for when I'm asleep and 486 or whatever max... 0 lag ever.
I use the SetCPU settings in the following link with my Eris running the Tazz Froyo ROM and have no lockscreen lag.

I have my screen off settings at 122mhz - 528mhz lol no lag and I save so much battery.
I've had no lag issues with Tazz's Froyo. I'm using LauncherPro with no orientation (I hate landscape anyway) and the following SetCPU profiles:
Temp > 50 C 480 Max/122 Min
Battery < 40 % 480 Max/122 Min
Screen Off 480 Max/122 Min
Charging\Full 768 Max/528 Min
My linpack scores aren't very good, but everything runs quite snappy for me.

Not to mention he has fixed the camera and will be releasing v7 soon
its a paid app so therefore i will not post any links. but there is some info about using it on the galaxy s devices and how we should avoid some settings and use others to dodge the bugs...
copy/pasted
Description:
SetCPU is a tool for changing the CPU settings (capable of overclock and underclock) on a rooted Motorola Droid, Nexus One, G1, G2, Samsung Galaxy S, or one of many other devices to improve performance or save battery.
SetCPU also allows you to set up profiles to change the CPU speed under certain conditions, such as when the phone is asleep or charging, when the battery level drops below a certain point, or when the phone's temperature is too high. See the screenshots for examples of how you might set up profiles.
SetCPU's wide feature set make it useful to beginners and enthusiasts alike. Accelerate your processor to unleash your phone's multitasking potential, or dial your CPU's speed down to save battery.
Have an HTC Sense device with a stock ROM or kernel? If you are having trouble getting your settings to "stick," press Menu > Disable Perflock. You still have to be rooted.
Galaxy S devices: ondemand scaling is recommended. There are issues with Galaxy S kernels that may result in crashes if conservative scaling governor is used, or if the sleep profile "max" value is set too low. Please do not set the sleep profile too low, and avoid using conservative scaling.
Requirements:
all Android versions
Recent changes:
2.1.0
- Significant UI and user experience revamp, including a new background for the widget, and new notification icons
- Added a quick priority swap button to the profile lists
- Significantly improved the reliability of autodetect on certain kernels
- Numerous bug fixes and crash fixes

I understand it's a paid app in the market. But if you're an XDA member you just go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
It's not a secret...
Funny, the previous version of SetCPU specifically told Galaxy S users to use conservative scaling and that ondemand would cause crashes.
Now they're saying the reverse.
Edit: Well, I switched it to ondemand as the app dev suggested and the phone turned itself off a few minutes later...
Are we suppose to flash it thru cwr?
Edit: nm I got it.

Do you have a profile for screen turn off? If you do disable it because the phone itself lowers the cpu while at sleep.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I have no profiles set. I tried doing the sleep profile but it caused some annoying lag when the phone was waking from sleep.
On demand profile settings do not work, my phone has crashed 2 times. SetCpu just doesn't work I guess.
Using Nero V 3 and set CPU isn't doing anything...max setting is set to 1000.
How did you guys get it to work and what are your settings?
Sent from my Galaxy S via XDA App
Those of us using SetCPU are using overclocking kernels. Some folks might be using DOW, but I am using JAC XMOD because I'm still on Eclair as all the 2.2 ROMs annoy me currently.
(At least until I get my Bionix Blackout for Nero v3 theme finished!)
I tried the available CPU governors on my CM7.2-Ace. So far I would like to keep the smartass one. But when I start listening to music and the display goes dark the sound begins to stutter.
So I would like to change the governor to ondemand or interactive whenever the music app is active or the headphones are plugged in for example.
Is this possible?

No. But you could get someone here to try writing a script for it maybe. See here for more details androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/267498-program-specific-overclocking.html
I am starting to believe that the ICS kernel scales properly although some people may claim it only scales from min to max.
I noticed on the stock GB kernel, the exact same thing happens when trying to use CPU controlling apps such as setcpu. However, for BOTH GB and ICS without using CPU controlling app, I can see the in between frequencies being used. When I try adjusting the slider THEN it starts the freaking out in terms of min/max. (Rom toolbox)
I even notice the battery life worsen tremendously when trying to use setcpu, antutu, etc on STOCK frequencies. Perhaps it has to do with people trying to use CPU apps on a kernel with the perflock enabled?
With the absence of a CPU controlling app on ICS , my battery can last the SAME (not worse, for sure) as it on GB.
Perhaps this can help those who complain about bad battery life on ICS
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
You don't need to wonder anymore! Its a function built into HTC kernels called "perflock" and its function is to continually reset the values for the min and max frequencies in order to prevent other applications such as setCPU from taking control over the CPU frequencies.
I've been using SEbastianFM's ICS OC kernel with setCPU. You are correct, that it does scale properly even though the min/max frequencies hop around. If you take notice of the current frequency, its usually appropriate for the current load level.
Furthermore, if use setCPU profiles to control the CPU speed, I've noticed it prevents the kernel from periodically reverting back to its default speed and governor settings. setCPU occasionally crashes (FC's) about once a day on me, but since I have the widget on my homescreen I notice it starts right back up again within a second or two and starts controlling the CPU speed again.
how can i increase my battery life in my htc inspire?
U can
1. flash custom kernel and than underclock and undervolt
2. root and remove bloatware running in background
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v14 (1.21ghz)
First of all, you can't really increase it. Just a little bit.
Thingd that help are:
Turning screen brightness low
Turn bluetooth and gps of when you don't use it
Turn wifi off when you don't need it
Advanced things that less people know:
Wait untill your phone shut down automaticly, because battery is dead. Than boot a few times to be sure.
After that, plug it in and don't stop charching untill its 100%. Than plug it in again, untill its 100%. This will boost your phone.
If you have root you can change your phone to batterysaver, but it will kill high performances. If your just a heavy user, buy yourself a second battery
I hope it helped

Easy:
Brightness down.
Auto sync off.
Turn wifi & mobile data off when not in use.
Turn off auto brightness.
Use push notifications rather than refresh (Facebook, email, etc.)
Harder:
Flash a different kernel.
Flash a modem that gives you good signal.
Undervolt.
Underclock.
Enable tweaks (AFTR Idle, lulzactive inc_cpu_load, etc.)
Use a different governor/I/O Scheduler.
Use profiles (SetCPU, Voltage Control, etc.)
And, if you're desperate, flash a stripped down ROM.
