@robto there is a button in linpack called "top devices" if u use it you will see all the android devices a top ten per device go have a look at the legends top ten first one uses froyo on a speed of 711 and it scores 15000+ with linpack mine doesnt pas 2760

If u can set the min a little bit lower and max to 711 i think the legends battery would be the same more or less but when you need more horsepower you will get it exellent for rockplayer and a few more things i would guess
[Legend General] robto:
Ah! Interesting!! I saw that page:

http://www.greenecomputing.com/apps/linpack/linpack-by-device/

I think top results are with Eclair 2.1:

"711.0MHz htc/htc_legend/legend/tofu:0.96/thumb/21:user/test-keys"

I tested 711 mhz in SetCPU but Legend seems not to recognice. Please, see the following point about how to: "8. Custom Frequency Config" in http://www.pokedev.com/setcpu/

Frequences need to be defined in khz. So I tried 711000 and some other frequences aroud 690 to 800 but seems not to be correct for the processor. I searched in Google for scalling frequences of Qualcomm MSM7227 but did not meet anything interesting.

Recogniced frequences are: 19200, 122880, 128000, 245760 ,480000, 600000.

So, probably I just didn't findnd the right number.
[Legend General] capdcanoa:
Hi

I have installed SetCPUtoday. I'm going to test it too.
[Legend General] robto:
Hi capdcanoa,

Nice to read you here.

Remember to select menu->Perflock Disabler, because if not, you will only get frequencies from 480 to 600 mhz.

"Perflock Disabler" need to be selected every time you reboot. The programmer did not set in automatic because it is a beta functionality.

I currently set frequencies from min 19200 to max 600000 and seems to be fine. You can also create profiles (for example, max to 480 mhz if battery is <50%)

If you like SetCPU, remember you can donate a beer to developer by acquiring the app in the Market.

I used JuicePloter to see battery consumption and got nice results with SetCPU. Will be great to have some feedback from your experience.
[Legend General] capdcanoa:
Thanks, robto.

I realized yesterday it only worked if I choose everytime "Perflock Disabler". what a pity. I don't like to open and select it everytime I reboot, but there is no option.

At this momment, I haven't made profiles. I have configured since 19 to 600 all the time, and I'm checking how many time the processor runs each speed.

I'm making my legend work very hard these days, I will check my battery life.
[Legend General] robto:
Yes you are right, but battery consumption save is very relevant : )

Remember that battery will be saved running PCU at a low frequence when Legend is not at full use. So, it your Legend is working hard, will run at 600 mhz and will not save battery.

Our Legends work harder when we are on hollidays : )
[Legend General] PirateNL:
Hi, recently bought SetCPU and testing out these profiles:

Screen off 19/245 100%

Battery <50% 19/480 95%

Battery <100 % 19/600 90%

Temp > 44C 19/480 85%

Your thoughts on this?
[Legend General] robto:
Look nice. Mine are very similar:

Charging 19/480 80 (for Google Maps Navigation)

Battery <30% 19/245 50

Battery <50% 19/480 40

Battery <100 % 19/600 30
[Legend General] Bricolo_fr:
what kind of increase in battery life did you guys see, with a minimum setting to 19MHz? (I still find it hard to believe that that CPU can run as low as 19MHz and keep the system stable :eek: )
[Legend General] robto:
I set governor is "On demand" so Legend will use 19 when there is no "demand" or activity. No activity => nothing to do => No problems : )

If 19 were maximun, that will be a problem for Legend, of course, but set as minimum there is no problem.

In SetCPU info tab, you can see how many seconds Legends stays in every state (19, 122,....). 19 is the state with more time, so I thing Legend is at 19 mhz when it is ilde and considering that processor consumes a lot of battery I think should save battery.
[Legend General] Bricolo_fr:
Great :)

And how much battery life can you expect now? I think the radio eats most of the battery now and becomes the limiting factor
[Legend General] robto:
I do not have statistics of the isolated efect of SetCPU , (will depend on use, configuration, installed apps and rom) but in a normal day, with SetCPU and Juice Defender my bettery consumption is around 3% per hour (at 9:00 battery is 100%, at 22:00 is 60%) For me is OK.

Try on your Legend to see if you get battery improvement.
[Legend General] Bricolo_fr:
Mine isn't rooted (yet) but with moderate use it can last 3 days (so about 1.5% per hour)
[Legend General] robto:
Thats is great. I think you do not use Legend so much or maybe you have a different Legend model in France :)
[Legend General] Bricolo_fr:
OK of I manage to squeeze 3 days out of it, it's with a very moderate use. About 15min calls per day and maybe 20sms per day. Not much internet and not much music. I switch the APN off when I don't use data. Bluetooth, wifi, are always off.

I don't think I have another model than yours ;)
[Legend General] robto:
I use Legend in my job: job email, personal email, facebook, tweeter, news, I would say around 1 hour call, GPS (I move a lot)... depends of the day.

For me the "critical" time is one day because I charge during nights. If your battery duration is 3 days, that is very good. You probably do not need urgently battery optimization strategies.

I will say you do not need to root just for SetCPU, but if finally you root, try it: it is easy to install and configure and probably you will get some extra battery. A lot of users with different smartphones got nice battery improvements. If finnaly you do not like/neet it, just uninstall :)
[Legend General] Kwen:
Do your guys actually know that throttling speed will actually DECREASE battery life?

You're better off letting the CPU work at full speed for a shorter amount of time than at a slower speed at a longer amount of time.

Doing so will allow the CPU to faster return at a lower clock rate and enter sleep/power saving modes.

Unless of course there's abnormal continuous load going on where throttling really becomes useful (or when overheating, >40C?)
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Here is the mod i made to auto load perflock_disable module on every boot. You just have to use ROM that supports init.d script loading.

You should also take into account that stepping over several frequencies is a bad idea if you are trying to prolonge battery autonomy. In that case CPU will be busy changing frequencies too much. To avoid this to happen too often you actually should make some profiles that will step just between two frequencies. You should also consider rising powersave bias and sampling rate of ondemand governor...
[Legend General] Corra:
825Mhz here with interactive governor :)
[Legend General] ghost_boy1412:
can i end (turn off) setcpu after i setted? or will i always skip it running?:confused:
[Legend General] rajasyaitan:
If you kill the program your profiles won't work.
[Legend General] danixal:
I've always been dreading the battery life, usually last about 10-12 hours a day with heavy calls and messaging usage. Always on 2G and periodic gps. Have just installed setcpu and now testing for batt life =)
[Legend General] Westi01:
Hey Guys,

I am using SetCPU since Yesterday and was wondering how to lower minimal Frequency because I can only set it to 245 Mhz and I want to save Battery :)
[Legend General] BlaY0:
U can't. 245 MHz is the slowest in your case.
[Legend General] Westi01:
Why? And how can I test the cpu if its running ok? Thanks.

[Legend General] Kwen:
Anyone having issue with the stock froyo kernel and SetCPU? Mine frozen up a few times, screen remains on but device becomes unresponsive
[Legend General] GeoMil:
yip, i have had a few freezes and assumed it was set cpu causing it, not sure though.

I have gone back to CM6.
[Legend General] BlaY0:
How do you mean why? It's the lowest frequency for the kernel you are using. You kernel doesn't support lower than 245 MHz.

How can you test? Run some applications and if they work, your CPU is OK.
[Legend General] Westi01:
Ah ok thanks. I just wanted to know that it has something to do with the kernel :) But I can use 825Mhz frequency without any problems :D:D
[Legend General] andrekua:
Same here... end up wiping everything and give SetCPU the kick. Its not compatible with the new kernel perhaps...
[Legend General] BlaY0:
You can not use SetCPU out of perflock bounds. Because perflock is forcing upper and lower frequencies, SetCPU is confused. Besides that new kernel has new path for cpufreq in sysfs. U can see that via logcat.

Sent from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] andrekua:
I see.. I had it set to 245/600 on-demand. But when it wakes screen-off, it shows 245/245 everytime. SETCPU is not really important right now with oc option not available.
[Legend General] BlaY0:
SetCPU 2.0.4 has perflock_disable for 2.6.32.17 kernel which we use now. Try that...
[Legend General] Trekvogel:
Tried it. Works fine for underclock but I can't seem to overclock. I made a setcpu.txt file with 728 and 768MHz but it won't go over 600. What am I doing wrong here?
[Legend General] Kwen:
My lockups occured even with perflock disabled, at least, according to SetCPU which says it was successful into disabling it (the kernel version is listed as supported too)
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Haha, U are trying to overclock proc with frequencies this kernel doesn't support. See which frequencies are supported by your kernel by looking at Info of SetCPU.

Sent from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] robto:
I am getting some problems with kernel 2.6.32.17 too. I am still testing, but seems that the governor is not correctly working. I set min 19 mhz - max 600 mhz, and seems that when cpu goes to minimum for some time, it is not able to increase cpu spead "on demand", so, as a result, is not able to run faster than 19 mhz and need to reboot.

Maybe 19 mhz is too slow for this kernel. I am testing with min 245760 hz.
[Legend General] dangal:
Im in setcpu 2.1.0,can you give me the min and max you thinks is better and mode?

[Legend General] jask05:
Hi,

I don't understand something. What's the meaning of the numbers 19/245 100% ?

I trying to overclock my HTC with CM7, but the min frec has around 245. The kernel version is 2.6.32.17-cyanogenmod-g80efa45.

And, other question. And, other question. What's the differences between the scaling options ?

I reading in the official web and this options depend on kernel version. This is correctly ?

I reading in the official web and this options depend on kernel version. This is correctly ? However, I don't understand this values.

[Android Software Development] hajimba:
Hi All,

I want to start developing applications for Android..

for application development want to buy a phone. but in my country yet nexus one is not for sale.

Samsung galaxy spica to start developing such a phone and how?

Between 2.2 and 2.1 versions in terms of how the differences have to do development.

because not included in version 2.2 (froyo) this phone.

What do you suggest?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rayman121985:
Hey gang,

Does anyone know if google voice works over 3g? Or does it only work over wifi...I am using this app that gets google voice to call me so I don't use my minutes...however I think its still using my time when I do it over 3g?

THANKS!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Silverskull:
It uses your minutes regardless. GV is not VoIP.

You could use Fring/Sipdroid/etc. with a Gizmo5 account if you have one (unlikely) or a VoIP service that offers a free phone number.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bunu:
Google Voice is VoIP. Just go to settings and pick the setting that will let you choose whether to use Google Voice or the phone. Google Voice is great when you are using a phone without a sim-card and just wi-fi but it works over edge and 3G also.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bunu:
MUCH BETTER. No wrong info please.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] britoso:
Actually Silverskull's answer was perfect, your info is wrong

gVoice is not VOIP and uses your carrier minutes. The call is initiated using a data connection.

If you need instructions on how to use free VOIP, see http://lifehacker.com/5349506/make-free-voip-calls-from-google-voice

There are rumors that google will enable pure VOIP this year....lets see.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ady:
It uses your outgoing minutes. Or if you use a thirdparty app, incoming minutes.

Before correcting, please do research.

http://voip.about.com/od/unifiedcommunications/f/HowGoogleVoiceWorks.htm
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rayman121985:
So if it uses your minutes what the benefits of google voice having it call you back to dial a number? Can you explain please?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ady:
1. Free calls across north america (US, Canada)

2. Single incoming number for all your house, mobile and any other numbers.

3. Call screening

4. Seemless call transfer between all your numbers without disconnection.

5. Visual voicemail and voicemail to text.

6. Free international SMS.

7. Invite only cool bragging rights.

GV

I've been using GV for over 4 months and since i've used it I totaled maybe 100 minutes from my carrier. I'm not a heavy caller but at east 20 minutes a day. Why don't you give it a try then do a minute check balance daily?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] docmalc:
This method is used perfectly when you're overseas and want to call the US/Canada for free. You have Google Voice call your Gizmo5 number to connect your call and use the Gizmo5 app to speak via computer. And Yes I have a gizmo5 account and Yes it is up for auction.... =)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jpreston84:
As one who uses GV with my Droid, I can assure you that it does not provide VOIP calling.

What is cool is that the GV app for Android provides free Visual Voicemail-type features and free SMS functionality, all over your data connection with no additional fees.

Now, to get free calling with GV and your data connection, do the following:

1) Sign up for a SipGate One account ( Google for sipgate ). This is a VOIP account that has free incoming calls and a free phone number.

2) Sign up for a SIPSorcery account ( Google for sipsorcery ). Requires silverlight to operate the site.

3) Add your SipGate account to SIPSorcery.

4) Get one of the dial plans from a Google Code project ( Google for google-voice-sipsorcery-dialplans ) . Instructions are also available there to show you how to add it to your SIPSorcery account.

5) Set up the SIP software of your choice (could be an ATA with a real phone, SIP software for your PC, or SIPDroid for Android phones), and use your SIPSorcery credentials to connect to the SIPSorcery service. Do not use your SIPGate credentials here.

6) Add your SIPGate phone number to your Google Voice account and go through the authorization process (it will call your SIPGate number).

7) Decide whether or not you want to have all incoming GV calls ring your SIP number or not. Configure GV to that effect.

Notes -- When you place an outgoing call with SIPDroid or other SIP software, it connects to SIPSorcery, which will then initiate a GV callback to your SIPGate number (so that you get the calls for free as incoming calls), and bridges the calls together. This is mostly seamless, however it does create as much as a 10 or 15 second delay before the call is placed. Additionally, on occasion it will fail to bridge the connection (the recipient's phone will ring, but you won't be connected to them).

Note 2 - This will appear as a call from your GV phone number, not your cell phone number.

Note 3 - I have found that there is a significant "dual ringing" problem when you receive a call on SIPDroid and over your cell carrier's voice plan at the same time. As such, and since some areas where I spend a lot of time have spotty data coverage, I do not usually have SIPDroid connected on my phone. It does work very well on my PC, however, and I plan to set up an ATA with a phone at home too.

One final thought -- We will all cheer when Google enables VOIP services for us, but they won't be free (they'll just be cheap, like $0.02/minute or something).

I realy liked this game on my HTC P3300 . Now on HD2 my Hardkeys are missing.

Anyone an idea to make it fullscreen and change keys?

left and right maybe on volume keys and up and down an the back and hangup key.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brett3rThanU:
My N1 is rooted running CyanogenMOD 5.0.7.1, color trackball alerts, the Desire Camera, Helix Launcher, etc... basically all the goodies. I know a lot of people in my situation went back to stock and flashed the pre-release Froyo. My question is why? I watched the Google I/O conference and yeah, Froyo looks great, but it doesn't seem like there's anything (other than Flash) that Froyo can do that all these custom ROM's out there can't. Is there something in Froyo I'm missing that I can't get in these custom ROM's? I'm thinking about just waiting until Cyanogen comes out with his own custom Froyo ROM....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commodoor:
I think it's the google apps that are different. they look good and work better. for me the Froyo didn't had the bugs that where in eclair. Btw the live wallpapers work better on froyo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Mainly - Flash, JIT and a speedier browser. Nothing that can't wait for a month.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diversificationied:
Browser speed is enough for me, since that's what I use most on my phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namuna:
- JIT

- Flash

- Chrome to Phone

- Install to SD (without having to deal with creating the SD partitions)

- Froyo Radio is more stable/reliable (from my own experiences anyway)

I'm also using pershoot's .34 kernel and LauncherPro and the overall "experience" is excellent.

Way better than CM5.0.7.x? No, but it was enough for me to jump on the bandwagon.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i'm the opposite kinda, i am using cm 507 and WANT to try out froyo, but not sure if its gonna be worth it cause A) i dont wannt burn in my screen any worse with that horrible white notification bar, and B) not sure about the new radio update (is it better or worse?).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commodoor:
A burn isnt because froyo. It isnt even a burn it isnt annoying me. I even can barely see it. I have my nexus almost 4 months and always used white bar and the burn is almost invisible i had to lool closely to see it

B for me the new radio is way better have more bars. The 3g speed at home has improved. So i am happy with it

You can try froyo if you dont like it go back to cm.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
the burn in i'm talking about is when using the standard white notification bar. this has been permanently burning in your screen and many people have it including me. since froyo cant truly change the notification bar color, using froyo will continue to worsen your screen using that horrid white notification bar. this is why i'm hesitant on switching.

about the new radio, i've read both good and bad. some people love it, and others hate it. so i dont know which to believe until i try it myself. again, this is the reason i havent yet jumped at froyo. of course i could always switch back if i dont like it. but laziness....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jurassicjockey:
Bluetooth implementation is better in Froyo with my headset at least. For that alone I won't go back
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsm86:
If you're worried about burn in, the latest version of launcherpro lets you hide the notification bar.

I'm currently using it, my notification bar is hidden, and I'm on completely stock 2.1 unrooted rom.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
I was happily running CM5.0.7.1 and decided to try FroYo. I found that the benefits were no where near enough to outweigh the excellent features I was missing from CM (not least the themes).

In the end I decided to go back (although in the process managed to brick my phone in a new and never-before-seen way but thats another story!)

In any case, the FroYo that is about turned out to be a non-final version that was pushed out by mistake. Google has since withdrawn it.

My advice is to just wait until the FroYo code is in AOSP and Cyanogen releases a CM6 branch based on it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortzz:
CM6(when it appears)>rooted 2.2>CM5.0.7>2.1 Which is why I'm using 2.2
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i wonder if it works on froyo. so does it hide the notification bar all the time, or only on certain screens? how do you pull down the notification shade?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diversificationied:
Works on froyo. Only hides the notification bar when you are on homescreens. To bring it down you just hit the menu button, and it'll show.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p-slim:
I agree with you. It all depends on what you use your phone for. The things named up above is what matters most to me. Little customizations like themes. I have apps that are taking advantage of jit, there is no way I'm going back to cyanogen until next release. If apps2sd didn't work then I would go back but even that works
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danguyf:
I upgraded from CM5.0.6 to Froyo. I loved the JIT and the new Gmail app, but in the end it was a wee bit too unstable for me for daily use, so I went back to 5.0.6 and then upgraded to 5.0.7.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
My Froyo has proven VERY stable for me.

I love the new Gmail app, now I can receive Gmail from my other account and stop having to forward everything.

JIT? man oh man, I love how my Nexus flies now!

It is noticeable faster than before!!

Apps2SD was never a concern for me, as I keep things to a minimum.

Will I go back to Cyanogen?

Nope.

But I will upgrade to a Cyanogen powered 2.2 :)
