Root setCPU

[andrizoid]

just dont change anything, ignore it and it will be like you dont have it, remember, its just a feature. you still have to take advantage of it

Hijack for a sec if i may!! Can anyone with an overclocked phone see if Homerun Battle 3d works consistently on their phone? theres a free one that you can download in the market.

I used it pre OC just fine

There is no justifiable reason to have your phone any higher than 528 while its sleeping. If u have sleep set to 710/710, ... u know what... nevermind.

I use 160/245 for sleep. No dialer lag because AS SOON as your phone wakes up (which it does when someone calls you), it runs at whichever setting u have defaulted.

710/710 on sleep is unnecessary. And more than likely, bad.

saw the failsafe kick in for the first time today, i have mine set to kick in at 40 celsius though. and battery drain is massive. you will be able to notice it. what rom are you using?

Your battery drain is "massive" because you have your CPU set at 710 while its SLEEPING. No wonder.... anything more than 245 for a sleeping phone is overkill.

i know it is, but i have an extended battery for one, and i have a car charger plus home charger. my battery may run down sloe but i dont mind. i almost always have pandora running the the background also so i like it fast. pandora used to get laggy when changing songs or waking it up and using the widget. dont have to worry about it now.

I just applied the OC patch, and set my cpu to 604max 122min, and WOW! this is the first time I have seen my phone fly like this. I don't even need to set it any higher (yet)!
And I'm just testing this out on the Eris_Official_0.8.1T2

Thank you to everyone who put these toys in my lap!

Ok there was an update for setcpu this morning so i updated hoping it would have eris settings. still doesn't but that's not the big deal since i updated it reset my settings and now when i try and change anything it locks up.

any ideas?

I dont have any issues waking up pandora while it is running and I am underclocked on my sleep profile. Maybe its because you are running app2sd with a low class sd card and you need to compensate with increased cpu speed?

I had a similar problem at first running v1.53 I got from here:
SetCPU for Root Users [1.5.3] 05/13/2010 - xda-developers
But after 2 battery pulls, I uninstalled it and reinstalled. had to quick atk it to get in to uninstall though.
This time I didn't set it to "set on boot" and I have no problems.
Hope this helps.

I would unistall the older version, before downloading the new version. Thats what I did, with no problems.

ok i uninstalled and reinstalled setcpu... now when i try and change the settings i end up getting rebooted i'm running sense-able 3

 

[erebus]

Thats what that kernel is set at.

If you flash this file
kernel-overclock-update-v3.zip

You will be able to go up to 825mhz

I just flashed this file and my phone has been sitting at the 3 androids on stakeboards screen for well over 8mins...any clues?

 

[hattrick]

I was also having strange problems after updating to the new version. CPU was staying at 100% almost constant. Major lag between screens and a few lock ups. I restored to the previous version and everything has been fine.

exactky. the music skips if i dont clock it up to at least around 600

When I say I am underclocked on my sleep/standby profile, I mean I am underclocked at 245/160min. Running this clock speed I still dont have any lag issues with pandora running when I wake the phone from sleep. Is app2sd really why you need to overclock to at least 600 to reduce lag? Sounds like a bad trade off imo.

Edit: I did have music issues on pandora even when I wasnt OCed because I didnt have my music quality set to high. Have you checked that?

 

[ErikForeman]

okay, well I just tried to do this.. got the SU screen cleared, went in and as soon as I went to change settings, it froze.. now it freezes soon after booting to my front screen...

can anyone help me here? I think it's set to autoboot at 800 or something

 

[ErikForeman]

Finally fixed my problem, had to end the app before it set the cpuclock, and then went in to change it. Everything's running much better now, thanks.

Never use set on boot until you find something stable. But I think u know that now

 

[YoungD112]

Whenever I try to set the OC my phone freezes and i have to pull the battery. I had it set to 710/614 on the main screen. Is this just too high?

EDIT: Nvm. It was too high I suppose, I set the min lower and it works fine now.

NOTE TO ANYONE FLASHING A NEW KERNEL:

Wipe Dalvik Cache.

Or you will potentially sit on these androids until the Cows come home. And you probably don't have any cows. So that's a really long time.

Pull the battery. Put it back in. Start back up in Recovery. Wipe > Wipe Dalvik Cache. Then Reboot.

From my experience there is no need to way under clock while sleeping. When a call is received 245-480 will show contact pic with no lag and battery drain is minimal.

Learned that lesson the hard way back when I first rooted.

Why? My battery seems to last longer if I am not always overclocked.
