Ergh, this may be a dumb question but how do you input values over 550? I'm using the bugless beast 7.5 rom through the update.zip install so SetCPU did not come preinstalled, had to download it through the app market.

when you set profiles it only applies the ones you enable...it'll run at whatever your max/min is without profiles when the phone, take my 2 for example, isnt charging or above 49.9 degrees. when i unplug it from the charger it goes to 950/250, plug the charger in and it goes down to 550/250...
or, if I disable all profiles, and have min/max set at 250/800, will it just throttle up as needed?
Cause that seems to make more sense if it runs that way to just let the phone decide what speed it wants to run at.
Im starting to think the profiles are more of a way to throttle down your speed...
Yes if you are using the OnDemand setting. The OnDemand settings throttles the CPU up or down between your min/max settings depending on how much load the CPU is under.
i have a question about OC setting..
what ya guys use for max/min?
is 1Ghz max and 800Mhz min good setting?
i was doing 1Ghz max and 250Mhz min, and getting some lags..

You can, try it. If your getting reboots and force closes and really high temps then I would scale down. But first maybe try max of 1Ghz and min of 550Mhz. That's what I use and I love it. Seems to be working pretty well for now...

i set mine to 1Ghz max 550Mhz min and ran the full bestbuy website and temp went up to 60C!!! so i tried 550Mhz for max and min and got 43C for peak temp..
is this mean 1Ghz is too much for my phone??
i found that i was runing hot temps on most settings, so i did a data restore factory reset through revovery mode then i re installed my bb 7.5 rom then reinstalled setcpu and temp mon, notice profromance change right off the bat. shes been running alot smoother then before just a lil glitchy on the ebay site for what ever reason it shrinks everything on its own to like a lil dot dont why .
If you have a charging profile and a sleep/standby profile both set, which one does it use if it's charging and asleep?
Bump - anyone know? And once the battery is at full charge but is still connected to the charger, is it "charging"? Got stuck in the ditch on this as I was pondering the profiles and decided to leave the "charging" profile blank and let the sleep state control.

I would imagine that the charging state supersedes the sleep state simply because it needs to charge to be able to keep sleeping....if you follow.
I wouldn't leave that profile blank as people have been concerned about leaving it OC'd when it charges.

Right, but I use Navigation, Pandora, etc. in a car dock and it's frequently charging while it's in there. I'd like it to be able to ramp up as needed to my max clock speed but yet I don't want it running that fast when it's asleep on the charger at night so I ramp it down to 600 max.

Keep in mind that the profiles are listed in order of priority. For example, if the phone is charging and sleeping, and both of those profiles are enabled, SetCPU will use the charging profile.
Also, I would think that as long as it's connect to a charging source, even if it is 100%, it is still charging.

That's what min and max and cpu governor are for. If the governor is set to ondemand, it will only use as much CPU as required by the apps/services running. You could set it to 250/800 (or 1ghz) for the charging profile and it should stay at 250 unless you are running navigation/pandora/etc.
I actually set my charging profile to 250/800 even though my overall profile is set to 250/1000. The reason I did this is because I, too, use my phone often when it is connected via USB or in the car dock, so I want it to be able to ramp up to 800 on demand. Why not 250/1000 for charging you ask? I feel like the charging process is already putting some heat on the battery so I don't want the cpu adding too much to the heating process. That's my reasoning at least
@ronx: Thanks. Score me a "fail" for not reading the fine print clearly listing the order of priority on the profiles. D'Oh!
I did run a test yesterday on the way to work with Navigation running and charging part of the way in and I hit 42 Celsius which triggered my fail safe profile to drop it to 600. I'll set "charging" to 800 and see what kind of heat it triggers with Navigation and Pandora both running while charging in the dock.
I have a Seidio case and car dock so there's a bit more insulation than "naked."

eeeeeekkkkk
why would you set the min at 550?
set the min as 250, so it can rest when you aren't using it.
I'm running bb 7.5 and I have sleep/standby set to 250/250. When people call it plays the ringtone and vibrates but it is very hard to slide the answer button across the screen to answer the call. Is this because of the sleep/standby setting? I just raised it to 550/250 to see if it would help. Anyone else having this issue?

Yeah, I always have issues with putting sleep/standby at 250/250. Whether it's missed phone calls, or even my music starts to stutter a bit.
I'd just keep it at 550/250. I doubt he's undervolting it at 250, so there's probably no (or minimal) power savings between 250 vs. 550.
I can't seem to find instructions on how to setup the SETCPU app. Can anyone provide any detailed info regarding such? I just dled it and the main tab indicates 300 MHz scaling ondemand with a min and max of 300,000.
When you open you can move the sliders to the max and and min you want to use. On scaling most people use "ondemand"
If you open up the next tab which is "profiles" you can click on add a profile. Set the profile up the way you want. Say have it at 600/250 for screen off. You can set up the profiles you want to use and then give them priority over one and other. As it was explained to me when you set the main screen to ondemand the profiles will override the main when necessary.
Hope this helps.

You also need to make sure that when you go into detect devise that you select auto detect and not the Moto Droid. You can do this by pressing the menu key while in the SetCPU app.
The Motorola Droid - the first ever Verizon Android Phone - exploded onto the mobile market with an incredibly successful ad campaign that brough Android to the masses. With a huge and vibrant touchscreen, solid metal body, full QWERTY keyboard, 5M... Read More
