Meltz014,

what kernel? i was under the impressing the fresh stock kernel (w/havs) didn't play nice with profiles. are you not having issues? have you tried a run WITHOUT profiles to see if there is an improvement in life?

I am using fresh and a netarchy kernal but have stayed away from profiles due to all the warnings

Great question.
I'm using the Fresh 3.3.0.1. with Netarchy 4.1.9.1. cfs and was using SetCPU with very similar profiles. Battery life was ridiculously good. I then read here that SetCPU profiles conflict with H.A.V.S. kernels, so I disabled "Profiles" in SetCPU, set Main to 128 min & 998 max Conservative." I'm still getting ridiculously good battery life. I see no difference.

I don't know what to tell you.

Pardon my ignorance here:

SetCPU needs to be running in the background for it to do it's job I'm assuming here. If I do a bunch of other things it can be killed by the OS correct? So I need to make sure it's on every once in awhile?

Sorry I'm new with rooting and wanted to get some insight here. Thanks for your patience and any clarity you can give. :)

It has a setting that trays to prevent itself from being forced closed by the low priority setting in the device. You shouldn't really have to worry about it much, But it is recommended you can keep an eye on to make sure. No worries though.

Oh ok, so I use that Priority slider in the app to make sure it doesn't get killed. I think I'm getting this now.

Thanks for your help dude!
