Hey guys, I recently bought SetCPU and I noticed a nice feature, allowing me to set profiles for different apps, or battery levels.
That is nice and all but I dont know what is the best minimum or maximum CPU level for best battery life.
Im not looking for best performance but I dont want it to lag either.
care to help?
thanks
I find google then search .

I discovered something that drastically improved my battery performance even with it sync on all day. If your rooted get the CPU master pro app, and under profiles enable the screen off profile and set the max cpu freq to 918, or lower if you want your battery to be better, i found that 918 keeps me charged all day though, it will depend on how much you use your phone cause you'll only be saving battery when its not in use, if you use your phone alot then just go to the main profile and set it to around 1200mhz
Edit: I'm using RezRom1.6
Thanks for trying to help others but this belongs in the general thread or apps one.

and im pretty sure just about anyone who has been here more than a few months already know this
Thanks for the tip. But I have to agree with everyone above me.
Also..
The title of the post made me think you were making your battery longer... I was like "why on earth would you try to do that???"
Android newb here, just transferred from iPhone. Changing the clock speed was never an option for iOS, so this is semi-new to me dealing with phones. Whats the best SetCPU profiles for a longer battery life without hindering too much speed?
Thanks :good:
What settings are best for optimal performance and battery life? I don't have any experience with this, and I don't want to screw anything up. I just got tired of my games always lagging, but I don't want a battery drainer. I dont believe I have a custom ROM. Thanks for any and all help.

SetCPU probably won't work very well unless you flash a custom KERNEL. You can mess around with it if you like and you'll probably won't mess things up. One thing I discovered before custom kernels came out is that you can enable the second core by enabling profiles in setcpu. YOu can see that in the menu option of setcpu for "cpu". That may help you in your games. If you set max at 1500 and min 192 initially, you'll see that next time you start setcpu, the max and min are both at 1500. I used another app like cpu monitor widget to see what was happening and low and behold the cpu was scaling 'properly', so I left the setting in setcpu at 1500 and 1500.
In the end...it doesn't work quite the way it was designed for and even with custom kernels we're seeing some issues with it, but mess with it, you may find that enabling the 2nd core will produce less laggy games. You'll have to judge the affect on battery.

I appreciate the help! [Thanked]
I want to know if you change the settings like CPU ,GPU the mHz etc. would it increase battery life..? if so how what are the best settings..?
i use the Siyah kernel for better battery life, if anyone knows what settings are best for Stweaks please tell me thanks in advance.
Depends on You...
Decreasing CPU - GPU frequency will increase battery life but decreases Performance

I used the battery profile and did not mess with all the other settings it did help with the battery life but there are quite a few threads about all the tweaks and some seem to work better for some than others.
I went back to default as I found the loss of performance irritating
thanks for the replies .
Hello, could anyone please tell me what some good settings on set cpu , for a rooted T-Mobile Alcatel one touch fierce would be ,
Thanks...

I don't have the same phone as you but Intellidemand / Zen (governor / schedular) seem to be a winning combination for performance vs battery life but it will probably vary from ROM to ROM and supposes the kernel you've installed supports it.
Perhaps you could say what you're hoping to achieve? Max battery life (slow the CPU down) vs performance.

Oh, sorry, I'm hoping to max battery life and maybe speed up the phones performance, (if possible) I got the paid app from the market even though we don't have the same phone but if you could share your settings I guess its better than the factory settings
Once again thank you, and sorry I forgot to put what I was hoping to achieve in my original post

You have to choose. Best performance or best battery. If you want the best compromise then like I said, Intellidemand and zen if your kernel supports them.
I'm not sharing settings as we have different phones and different Kernels so it'd be pointless.
I used to have lots of profiles for various times of day, screen on, screen off etc but now I pretty have two. One for general (min and max are whatever the kernel allows) and a profile for low battery where it max's the CPU at 30-50% whatever is max and changes to the conservative governor.

Ok see didn't know that, so I would choose performance over battery life then I am new to this and don't want to brick my phone I bricked a rooted android trying to change a boot animation using root explorer so just trying to be careful, also if you could help me with the "MHz" settings it would be great to the choices are 497, 754 ,988 & 1209 that would be great to
I have all the good root apps titanium backup pro root explorer pro and a lot others, but lol I just don't know how to use them yet...any knowledge on a boot animation logo change would be appreciated to I learned a little after I bricked ny phone I know that I didn't put it in the right folder but every post I read people say it bricked their phone so maybe I should staw away from it until I am a little bit more experienced idk.
But for cpu performance would be what I would choose
Thanks again..
