Can u guys share ur set CPU profile. I need profiles with great performance and less battery consumption. My profile is as followed :-
Charging AC/full 748 Max 480 min
Screen off 245 max 122 min
Performance n battery don't come together ..... I use ondemand 729/425 ... nothing different for screen off .... works really smooth n decent battery also
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
But I Also need to manage my batteries...
My setup's kinda similar to yours,
480/720 ~ on demand ~ when charging/full
Otherwise 240/320 when screen is off. BTW How long does yours last?
Hey !
That's for me :
Charging/full : 729 - 245 / ondemand
Screen off : 320 - 245 / conservative
Battery < 40 : 600 - 245 / ondemand
Battery < 20 : 480 - 245 / conservative
I don't have many profiles, just 1.
245min / 748max
Battery's life is kinda good, usually I have to recharge one time a day. It's not a problem for me.

I even used battery less than profile but it slows the phone too much....
Well It also depends on which ROM you have on your phone.
Mik_os CM7 port actually EATS the battery and It runs out of juice in less than 24 hours with a normal usage. A bit better with devoid v5, but I feel like openOptimus is the best one out of the three.
I use only one profile: battery < 101% @ 729/122 smartass
great advice so i must be changing my rom as soon as andy releases his new build!
729 max 480 min smartass
I use:
Main 729 max 320 min smartass
Charging 600 max 245 min ondemand
Battery < 40% 600 max 245 min conservative
Battery < 25% 480 max 122 min conservative
I used to keep a screen lock profile at 245 max but my phone lagged while receiving calls when the screen was locked and sometimes while playing music.
I use devoid.franco and
729/480 interactive
Screen off: 600/240 ondemand
What is that of smartass? My SetCpu havent got that mode :/
have someone got a guide or something that explain each mode (ondemand, interactive...)
Using stock ROM.
Normal: 729 max, 245 min, conservative
Charging: 768 max, 245 min, ondemand
Battery < 20%: 600 max, 122 min, conservatve
Battery life greatly depends on my usage. But, generally, I come home after classes (where I use it for internet, music, games etc.) with 30-40% battery left.

i got dis man
Program for controlling CPU frequency on Android in order to increase productivity or increase battery life.
Of the features worth noting customizable profiles.
Description of modes:
* Interactive - an interactive mode, driving frequency of the CPU in real time, almost always at full productivity.
* Smartass - a regime based on Interactive. Has a more rapid decline in frequency in a simple, but also lowers the frequency to a minimum at a turned off screen.
* Conservative - operates at a very low incidence of possible CPU and increases incrementally, as needed.
* Userspace - allows you to change the frequency of the CPU, either manually or dynamically, at the discretion of the software.
* Powersave - reduces the frequency of the CPU to the lowest possible level.
* Ondemand - operates at a very low incidence of possible CPU and increases the maximum reaches values of CPU usage - 100%.
* Performance - sets the maximum frequency of the CPU, not allowed to change frequency downward.
I'm looking for a good baseline to see what works best on this phone.
list everything, screenshots prefer and please specify your rom, kernel, and theme.
Mine are as follows...
all info in my sig. I use 500-1400 conservative with a 500-500 power save profile set for when the screen is off.
My battery lasts between 28-42 hrs pending my usage level from high - low. YMMV.
Miui
200 to 1200
Conservative
Noop
Using no-frills
Same settings when using perception. Awesome battery life, almost two days.

CM7
200-1400 On demand
nothing else changed in setcpu
using red drop them for theme changer
CM7 launcher (ADW)
Widgetlocker for lockscreen theme
So, I'm heavily themed, but not much in widgets.
Seems good on battery, can last ~14 hours with moderate to high use.
Stable as well, no major crashes other than the usual browser and market.
I use Voltage Control myself and I've UV'd all across the board by -50. I've also dropped max speed to 1000Mhz. The rest should be pretty self explanatory...
Oh and I can't really list battery life because my usage really varies day to day, by quite a bit. I will say that I definitely get through an entire day with very high usage with no problems at all. Much... MUCH better than when I was running stock.
Default voltages and frequencies, ondemand, ignore nice load

Day to day performance, there really is no difference than stock, but to compare quadrant, I got ~3300 stock, but at this OC I get ~4400. It's gonna be smooth as butter either way, I just like numbers
Display time, I'm not too sure, but my settings are at its 1/3 highest (so not too bright, but not too dim either for me). If I were to approximate, I would say a good 2 hours of the display being on, give or take an hour or too (not the best estimate, but Ill try and keep track next time and report back).
Rooted stock
No themes
I get a good 14 to 18 hrs (minimal usage during the day and heavier usage evenings/nights - lots of wifi or data intensive apps)

thanks but it looks like that is not stock settings, turns out if you click revert in setcpu it tells you how to get back to stock. they are...
1200-1275
1000-1175
800- 1075
500 - 975
200 - 950
my new settings are...
1200-1175
1000-1100
800 - 1000
500 - 925
200 - 850
all is well so far. stress test with no probs.
Here's my settings
Main Profile: 200Mhz Min 1Ghz Max running conservative governor. During the day. Conservative is performing better than ondemand for me.
I've also been toying with the up and down thresholds on the conservative governor to find a difference. Haven't really experienced any lag unless I set the up threshold to 90 or over.
Screen Off: 200 Min 500 Max also conservative
Charging: 200 Min 1400 Max ondemand
Battery <25% 200Min 800Max conservative
I've been finding the phone is just as good running at 800mhz max on the main profile. It's amazing how much faster this thing is then my captivate.
As far as voltages
1600: 1450
1400: 1325
1200: 1225
1000: 1100
800: 1000
500: 900
200: 825
Been getting amazing battery life. Been on battery for 10 hours now. Still 65% battery. Not bad.
My phone absolutely blows for overclocking. anytime i try the settings posted here it locks up
Also using No Frills here. Settings are:
Max: 1200
Min: 200
Conservative and Noop
I unplug it at 7am and by the time I get off of work at 5:30ish I still have 60%+ of my battery left. Running MIUI with quite a few widgets and I leave wifi on all the time.

Might have to Overvolt. I had to overvolt 1400Mhz by 25mv in order to get it stable.
Also I've noticed lately when it's not happy with the setCPU settings I'm using the phone seems to emit a high pitched frequency when you put your ear to the back cover. When I get stable it appears to stop.

Not sure what to tell ya. I just installed SetCPU and this is the default settings showing - the same as Voltage Control and what I was referring to. I deleted the boot and profile settings first from Voltage Control and then rebooted, then installed SetCPU.
The only thing I can think of is that since I'm running UnNamed with Entropy's daily driver, maybe the voltage was tweaked from him? I'm only assuming because reading through his thread doesn't seem to indicate that he upped the default voltage on all levels. Unless I missed it somewhere.

Thanks for the clarification
I'm still trying to find settings that give the most performance and give the best battery life
bump...
No one cares to share?
Stock voltages and frequencies - on demand
Charging - stock frequencies - on demand
screen off - 200-500 conservative
So I just wanted to know does having extra launchers like go launcher or launcher pro use extra battery? And what about if theyre installed but not used?
and my second question is does setting your cpu max and min to the same number save battery life? Someone on here told me that and idk if its true or not, ive been trying it and it doesnt seem to die as fast but doesnt give a noticable increase in life. If it does save battery should I set it to 400,400 (works great games lag) 800,800(games lag a tiny bit) 1000,1000 or 1200,1200(for performance). Just some thoughts that were in my head and I just wanted answers thanks to anyone who helps

SneakySnake16 Proud noob to XDA
if you have alternative launchers installed, as long as you are not using them they shouldn't consume resources.
as far as setting min/max for CPU speeds, stick to the basics 100 min 1000max for stability. setting your minimum at high frequencies is just wasting more energy.
as far as performance is concerned, start easy by playing with the schedulers (ie. vr, deadline, cfq, bfq, noop, etc.) and governors (ondemand, smartass, conservative, etc.)
Alright thanks for the help
SneakySnake16 Proud noob to XDA
As xtone mentioned, alternative launchers which are not in use, wont eat up your battery.
About the battery life -- It's usually best to keep your min at 100 (some prefer 200) because when the phone is not in use, it will rev down to your lowest and save battery. If you have it set for 400 for example, it will never go lower than that, and be using more battery than if it were at 100 (presumably so). The best bet would be to first change your governors and schedulers, then learn about undervolting. After than, learn about freezing unnecessary system processes, and investing in a solid task-killer/system monitor (I recommend system panel).
Here is some good info on schedulers/ governors: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242323
Undervolting varies from user to user because the distinctness of hardware...always good to start with lower values (such as -25) and test it a few days, and decide if you want to push further until you get a restart/freeze.
My undervolt values are something like...
1000 - 50
800 -75
600 - 100
400 - 125
200 - 150
100 - 175

Disclaimer; This does not damage your phone at all or fry/mess up your cpu. On the contrary, it helps it by not running at full capacity all the time resulting in less stress and increased battery.
This method works universally for any Android phone you're using. But you'll need ROOT for Set CPU.
IMPORTANT: The newer versions of SetCPU might prevent your phone from entering deep sleep. Download version 2.24 from the following link which is the one with no problems and completely works 100%.

The Ace sucks in battery life. We all know that. And on 3G? Don't even mention it. But here's a fix, ever tried Under clocking instead of Over clocking?
Someone brought it up on a thread a couple of days ago and I have to spread the word, that works wonders. Got my Ace running on 245 min and 806 max and a different Screen Off profile. And now from the morning till 6PM in the afternoon, its just 61% AND recorded a 7 minute video/took pictures.
Battery was the only issue I had with my Ace. But now that its fixed, I love it
When screen is on:
MAX 806
MIN 245
Ondemand governor (This governor bumps up to max when needed but spends most time on the min freq. Best battery saver.)
When screen is off:
MAX 320
MIN 122
This way, you have a beast quick phone when you're using it, and the best battery saver when you're not!
This is what CPU spy should look like when you're done:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
NOTE: Turn off Autosync from the settings. It's only used to sync your gmail and contacts and such. You can manually sync when you add a new contact and since I don't use gmail, I refresh manually whenever I do. 3G is the worst battery killer so this will help a lot.
SetCPU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
Specific instructions for those that can't get it to work!:
On SetCPU:
Click Add profile
Where it says Profile, select it and tap "Screen Off"
Set the frequencies you want in use while screen is off (If you want just one frecuency, put both sliders on the same number)
Set priority (in case you have other profiles, otherwise don't bother)
Select governor (Won't really matter since cpu is gonna be running at 1 frecuency)
Tap save
Go back to Profiles tab at the top, then tap Enable at the top left to make the profiles work.
For a list of most governors detailed; check out this thread! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242323
To check if its all working, install CPU spy from the market:

Battery Calibration
1. Turn your phone off
2. Leave charging over night
3. Turn it on
4. Leave it charging for half an hour
5. Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&feature=search_result
6. Open it and press calibrate battery
7. Discharge your phone down to 0% during the day
8. Charge back up to 100% NON-STOP.
This is to make sure you're using your battery at 100%. Only do this after you flash a new rom.
The worst battery killer is 3G itself. No matter how much you try to optimize battery and underclock, if you have 3G on, you're gonna have a bad time. MAKE SURE Autosync is disabled.
Thanks to QNBT for the AutoSync off and new profile settings hint!
gotta try this one. hope this works!
Hey dude I may try that tip, but I wanted to know about the governor that you are using, is that one a battery saver?, and what about chainfire 3d? you said that you dont use heavy apps and as far as I know that one is for heavy gaming isnt it?
ps. I recommend you install Vturbo 8.5 by gadgetcheck since I didnt see it on your signature, it really works

Yeah, I'm not using heavy apps now but I do like some gaming now and then. When I do game, I crank up the processor back to normal but I rarely do. And I use Smartass governor, not really sure if its a battery saver but its working great.
And yeah, I think I had turbo 8.5. But for now, my ace runs perfectly fine so I don't really need other scripts or optimizers
CPU governors control exactly how the CPU scales between your “max” and “min” set frequencies. Most kernels have “ondemand” and “performance.” The availability
ondemand – Available in most kernels, and the default governor in most kernels. When the CPU load reaches a certain point (see “up threshold” in Advanced Settings), ondemand will rapidly scale the CPU up to meet demand, then gradually scale the CPU down when it isn't needed.
interactive – Available in newer kernels, and becoming the default scaling option in some official Android kernels. The interactive governor is functionally similar to the ondemand governor with an even greater focus on responsiveness.
conservative – Available in some kernels. It is similar to the ondemand governor, but will scale the CPU up more gradually to better fit demand. Conservative provides a less responsive experience than ondemand, but can save battery.
performance – Available in most kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the “max” set value at all times. This is a bit more efficient than simply setting “max” and “min” to the same value and using ondemand because the system will not waste resources scanning for CPU load.
powersave – Available in some kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the “min” set value at all times.
userspace – A method for controlling the CPU speed that isn't currently used by SetCPU. For best results, do not use the userspace governor.
smartass – Included in some custom kernels. The smartass governor effectively gives the phone an automatic Screen Off profile, keeping speeds at a minimum when the phone is idle.
Thanks for the tip, works for me
Im trying smartass governor but I noticed that the battery got really hot for some unknown reason :/, and I I got back to ondemand it becomes normal. Any idea?
I would rather use SetCPu becouse a need automatic changes since I play a lot ;P
I have no idea. My phone's working fine. I keep switching between interactive and smartass. Can't really tell which one works better xD

This rom actually has a pretty bad battery life. But makes up for it with speed and stability. I'm only using the LagFree V2 script and thinking about adding TurboBoost but I'm not sure if they can work together.

Well, just in case you miss your spare battery at home or something, check out the edit I just made on the thread.

Using CPUtuner now. Free and works perfectly. I dont think i need smartass governor, since it offers separate screenoff profile, where i can set everything i want, including services on/off.

Lol, okay. SetCPU is also free (on XDA). But whatever works for you is fine. My fix is just running CPU at minimum as soon as the screen is off and switch profiles when the screen is on. That way you'll always have battery to use when you want to and not use up battery when you're not using the phone.

I REALLY don't recommend leaving it at 122 minimum. I tried it today and had a lot of lag attacks. Though the battery saving is incredible, but at the cost of a lot of performance. Like taking a call, it'll lag like hell. Had a lot of missed calls today just because of that issue.

I REALLY don't recommend leaving it at 122 minimum. I tried it today and had a lot of lag attacks. Though the battery saving is incredible, but at the cost of a lot of performance. Like taking a call, it'll lag like hell. Had a lot of missed calls today just because of that issue.

Yeah, I noticed that a few weeks back, couldn't even answer so much it was laggy. You can set in phone call 245mhz and priority higher than screen off and it resolves that issue.
I use cyanogenmod performance for setting the clock with 245mhz min now, I don't have any wakelocks so the processor is always off (deep sleep) when the screen is off, at the same time I don't have the wake lag issue since its not running at 122mhz when it wakes.
So far, I've read and tested some CPU governors to find the best in battery life that doesn't sacrifice performance too much (powersave is out of the list), namely:
Smoothass
SmartassV2
Virtuous
Intellidemand2
From all these, I found that Intellidemand2 is the best (lag when playing games appear quite rarely, only when complex calculation happens). However, I'd like to hear from you (esp. those who already tested ALL available governers) which one, in your opinion, that fulfills above requirement and is suitable for XMP (device does matter, doesn't it)?
P.S.: If the I/O scheduler also affects, please mention it along
It all depends... No battery governor can spare you 2 days of battery..... But you may try InteractiveX in combination with smartassv2... Best to use InteractiveX when the phone is idle and smartassv2 for gaming and music.....
Smartassv2 combined with sio. Anyway u doesn't need to use such cpu app that sets "profiles" e.g. changing governor while screen turned off etc, smartassv2 is smart enough, it got its own algorithm to limit max cpu when phone is sleeping.

Haha, I don't expect 2 days, not even 1 day. My normal daily use is mostly social networking (3 apps, all with background updates), email (2 accounts, 1 with push, 1 with 15 minutes period notification), chatting, sms and gaming. Sometimes music also. It seldom passes 10 hours which is why I'm looking one with best battery life (it can reach 13 hours if I don't play game).

Will try that, seems like I haven't tried the combination with sio. Thanks.
