If I just want to use SetCPU to overclock to 748 and not use the Advanced settings, is there a way to do this? I know that if you unselect apply on boot it won't apply the current settings but what settings will it apply?
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Your on the right track
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
You know what....

So far I have had setcpu unistalled for the past day noticed no chance or even worse battery life but I will continue to make sure its Not a fluke

These phones are definitely not created equally

I need my 19 sleep profile badly

Had a full charge before bed and unplugged it last night woke up and it was on 93 hmmm

With setcpu I would be 98 or more

But I will continue with the rest of the day just to confirm
[Droid Eris Android Development] eghill1125:
I was seeing similar results last week when i tried going without SetCPU. There was a noticeable difference with battery life suffering without it on. Now I seem to be back to good again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dEris:
This is because you're not using your phone right? This is 27 hours with screen off right?
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
My CPU stays in its highest clock speed, my main is set at 710 - 245, and my screen off is at 245- 199, both on demand with screen offpriority at 100, my main at 85. My time in state is all ways 710 or 245, my theory is an app with bad resource management is straining my CPU, is there a way to find out what program is running the CPU
[Droid Eris Android Development] KennyJive:
I just charged my phone to 100% and im down to 89% in 10 minutes after barely any use.

I have it set to 604 - 245 ( can't go any lower or sound is choppy)

Screen off is 245 - 122

Adavanced is 100000, 98, 0, 0

Any suggestions? Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] deezy111:
It could be a few different things. Look at your battery usage under settings>about phone>battery use.

Let us know what is says. If the Cell Standby is on top click on it and see if it says "time without signal"
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Try using system panel app in the market I'm testing it out right now
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
It could be your apps and widgets
[Droid Eris Android Development] doogald:
One other thing to try is to fully charge and, while it is still plugged in, restart in recovery, go to the wipe menu, and wipe battery stats. Restart and then unplug, and try to run the phone as long as you can without charging.
[Droid Eris Android Development] KennyJive:
The only 2 widgets I use are beautiful widgets and system info widget.

I haven't made a phone call today so my cell standby isn't listed. However my display is using 43%
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
Its important to run until the phone turns its self off, after you clear bat stats
[Droid Eris Android Development] deezy111:
It could be that the area you are in is searching for 3g a lot. My phone would switch from 1x->3g quite often draining the battery faster than normal. I dont know if that is your problem especially since your cell standby is not that high. I would try rebooting the phone incase it has a "sync loop" where its stuck trying to sync. Im curious what it could be and hopefully some of these ideas get it fixed for you. I just lasted about 2 days on 1 charge with kaosfroyo v32. Hope to help you figure it out for the same results.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
That's about right for your display, you can adjust your brightness to the lowest setting you can tolerate and see if that helps, do you notice 1x and 3g bouncing back and forth? Do you live in an area with bad cell coverage?
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
Thanx ill hunt it down.

[Postscript ]

PS.You got angrybirds working with appbrain and fast web? I tried with that and with my market to no avail [/Postscript]
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
You have to be missing something it worked for me on the first try make sure u went through all the setup processes for both apps and the website

Also I heard it is now available in market it shows up now
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Hey everyone set your auto killer to optimum for better performance
[Droid Eris Android Development] Monkeypuppet:
No, the phone was being used. I'm not a heavy user but not a screen off all the time kind of user ether. Like I said in my previous post. Few app usage(XDA, Facebook, foursquare, solitaire), some texting (maybe 50 texts), and about an hour of phone usage.

Remember part of this time was me sleeping and my phone was also sleeping.
[Droid Eris Android Development] GreginNH:
Your phone is also sleeping as in......?

I have had nights where I will disable all data and check it 10 hours later and its only down one or two percent, but then there are other times where its down 10+ percent.

Do you disable data, or turn the phone off???

Thanks! Lke everyone else just trying to figure out the magic formula :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
ive gone through and set up appbrain on my phone and through my the website linking my google account, i found it in my market and on appbrain, just when i click to install it i get an error after it says loading for a few seconds, "Not found-The requested item could not be found" im going to snoop around and see if the apk is posted somewhere, then try to side load it. edit-found it for anyone else having issues http://www.mediafire.com/?j797r19xtm78g1z
[Droid Eris Android Development] BOY_:
well, finally killed the phone in a single day.... Usage was what I'd consider heavy (lol): 1 hr Pandora, 15 min exchange data sync, 1 hr FB sync (widget running), Agenda widget (1 hr sync), 1 hr sync weatherbug widget, actively checking email, a little web surfing, 93 minutes of phone time (70min in a single call), a couple of app downloads, and about 10-15 min of scanner radio. Whew! Phone off the charger at 7AM and put it back on around 9:45 with 26% left. \

KFv30, battery settings are:

604/160

480/19 off

480/19 batt < 32%

160/19 temp > 40%

160/19 charging

Thoughts? :cool:
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
You must have the Jesus battery

FYI you may want to raise the max on your temp profile

Sometimes we still have to use out phones when they get a lil warm
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
You guys need to try the new undervolted kernels.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Monkeypuppet:
When I said sleeping I meant screen off. I had done nothing else but just hit end to shut off the screen.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
I did it killed ky quadrant a little

I'm waiting on v33 when it properly implemented instead of a flash over
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Strange. On my tazz 3.0 (test 3) I got the score in my sig lol best quadrant I've ever gotten.

I'm just recaillibrating my battery since I've been wiping and flashing to often.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
its the advanced settings of setcpu
[Droid Eris Android Development] thisisreallygay:
And I know this won't work on a froyo ROM very well.. But just set my max on set CPU to 480 and I'm honestly not having lag at all. This rom is pretty freaking smooth. So those on xtr or tainted tenzo. Try putting your max at 480 I think that'll improve battery a lot too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] thisisreallygay:
What do you have them set to though?
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
true but what about real time every day use across multiple walks of life

i for example use cardio trainer and pandora at the same time while running

got to think about multi taking brotha
[Droid Eris Android Development] thisisreallygay:
Oh yeah true.. Forgot about that. I highly doubt it's going to handle that lol. I thankfully only text and browse the internet really though. So maybe it'll work for me. Idk though. I've always been the one to use 806/806 settings till my battery started dying pretty fast haha.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sh_mohanna:
Thank you SD36

I'll try it and will get back with the results. FYI I'm currently using darkstone HD2Foryo V2. (Released on 8th Aug) and it's working perfect without SetCPU or any other application. I only use Task manager or advanced task killer, and it never heated up like other ROMS. But I noticed that after continuous usage for 4 to 5 hours screen starts freezing or delaying the response.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
You should of rid of your task killers and use autokiller app instead

That should fix your problems
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
Have been using 710/19.2 default and 245/19.2 screen off and seem to have minimal lag when waking the phone. Have a full charge will report the battery life as it drains. So far have not budged from 100% after some light browsing and this post which is awesome since I'm used to dropping a percentage point every six minutes of screen on use.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
what are setting autokiller at
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
my autokiller is set at Strict.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
my autokiller is set to aggressive but my froyo rom is probably smaller than yours

7h in with about 5-7 minutes total calls some browsing some posting

and im at 75% so im happy i thinks this works
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
Nice! I've taken out most stuff I don't use a la barebones cyanogen wiki

So far so good
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
8hrs off charger 70%

I'm jealous of the ones who get a full days now
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mackattack:
Could some of this work on a Sens based 2.1 rom?
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
What kind of usage are we talking for 8hours though?

Whats your estimate on the amount of time the phone is asleep?
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
I haven't ran 2.1 in a while but I do remember huge instability when the phone was setcpu to 19mhz.

The froyo roms handle memory etc far better than 2.1 so it seems to be more forgiving of extremely underclocked speeds.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mackattack:
So far I have had it at 19 when screen is off with no prob for 30mins, so far looking positive.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Duffman3005:
Nice find, I usualy set all my min to 122, but I'll try 192. I usually get on avarage 2 days out of a single charge, so it'll be interesting to see if I can get past the 3 day mark.

Also, one question, I never used autokiller till V30, what's the difference between "Strict" and "Agressive"?
[Droid Eris Android Development] thewanton:
Just curious, by the "default" profile I'm assuming you guys mean the "Main" profile on the main tab of SetCPU?
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Yes the main Profile

the one i have two options for
[Droid Eris Android Development] BOY_:
I was thinking about that, LOL. I'd really like a tool to UC while talking on the phone. I definitely noticed the phone was heating up while I was on it - no reason for it to be running anywhere near max for a phone call, LOL.

Also waiting for V33 as my first major upgrade flash, V31/32 have had some sketchy problems that I didn't want to worry about. Hoping V33 will be faster, smoother, better on battery, and not have the odd camera and GPS bugs.

As for the Jesus battery, it's stock but it is my 2nd Eris. My first battery overheated and melted the touchscreen (or the other way around, the techs weren't sure) - STOCK on 1.5!! Having a temp setting in SetCPU is really great for piece of mind.
[Droid Eris Android Development] nixternal:
Seems my phone has been dying fairly quickly with the settings. I don't know if it started happening with v32 or not. I wiped today and set up autokiller and setcpu accordinly, wiped battery stats, and what not. Now I am seeing if battery life is any better or if it still sucks. I will make sure I report back if I find anything.
[Droid Eris Android Development] GreginNH:
Battery life seems to be settling in nicely!

OK, so I ran my phone all weekend, moderate use, nothing too demanding.

My exchange and other email account sync every hour, Facebook every 2 hours.

Did some app downloads, played some games, made a few calls and surfed a bit over the weekend.

I have been running almost 48 hours now and I am at 33% battery this morning.

I have setcpu at 710-19Main

Screen off 480-19

Thanks for all the great info and time put into this thread, it's obviously paying off!

Cheers!!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
well everyone it seems with these newer low voltage kernels coming out for the eris

Setcpu is becoming irrelivant

but we will see though maybe it will be an added benefit or maybe it will hamper our progress

either way thanks to all those that helped out testing and giving feed back

so lets keep out fingers crossed
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:

Running Kaos Froyo 32.

Have SetCPU at:

Battery <40% 604/19 w/50 priority

Advanced settings are

Unplugged phone around 7:30 this morning, updated a couple apps, had a 30 minute phone conversation and about ten text messages and my phone is down to 71% battery.

Have AutoKiller on Aggressive, only running Beautiful Widgets clock and weather, update weather every hour, no mail, no facebook, no twitter. Have Pandora widget on a page but it's not running and also have a horoscope widget (Swiss Code Monkeys) but I can't imagine that updates more than once a day since it's a daily horoscope.

In the time it took me to look up these settings and type them out I've gone to 68%, running 3G, no wifi, no BT.

Any suggestions? Should I try tweaking something, or just uninstalling this?

Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
try wipe battery stats

check your tws bug

leave your advanced setting at default 20000.80.0.0

see if that help

if not uninstall setcpu
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:
Wiped stats, reverted to the advanced defaults and went into settings/about phone/battery use and there is nothing under tws.

However, while I'm there, I'll tell you that my battery use says:

Display 71%, Android System 13%, Android OS4%, LP 3%, then at 2% are com.google.process.gapps, android core apps and media

Down to 62% only been off charger about 3 hours.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
Im excited about these, its going to be included with kaos v33 right?, im sure we can keep this thread going, no matter how well the roms are built. Tweeking and experimenting, pushing our phones futher for performance and battery life is fun and at the very least can give devs an idea of what user preference is in terms of battery life vs. performance I know I've learnd alot. Its important for general users to understand that flashing roms is like messing with your mbr (I've been playing with burg and grub2) if you don't research enough to know how important small steps (like clearing bat stats on a full charge and running the phone till it dies) you end up with a sub par performance, all the info I needed to fix my battery life I found here, thanx d.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
thank bro thats much appreciated

but you right we should sit tight and see what coming out on the horizon

all i know is since i learned to root my phone get better and better

sky is the limit ;)

and yes i heard kaos is going to roll the new kernels into update which one im not sure

also in the new kernel there is a new setcpu profile to plsy with
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
I have my phone OC'ed at 787/480 and 710/480 while charging, screen off, or low battery. I've had the same settings since using 2.1 roms and I can tell a tremendous difference with the new Froyo roms. It seems like every new rom I flash adds a little increase to battery life and I'm not compromising performance in the slightest. I used to change my battery 3 times a day (yes I have 3 batteries). Now I can make it through a whole day on one battery. I do a lot of texting and web searching. I've even noticed that my batteries seem to charge faster (when in the phone, not the external charger).
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
Wow, I wonder if you dropped your lows to 245 if you could get more? That's the original low clock speed in the ota
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
i wonder if setcpu will woke better with these newer kernels

maybe a 19 profile + lower voltage
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
It looks as if v33 needs more time to bake, im going to stick with v32 and see with the next release
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
If you have a "screen off" setting that will apply to when you're on the phone and the screen is off fyi.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Also if you're noticing poor battery life try removing autokiller, it pulls things that use RAM into the CPU, which hurts battery.

Don't wipe battery stats unless you're planning on recalibrating completely, this could completely mess up your battery stats.

If you want to recalibrate:

1. Charge phone to 100%

2. Wipe battery stats

3. Turn phone on UNPLUGGED and let it drain completely

4. Turn phone on UNPLUGGED and let it drain again if there's still energy in it

5. LEAVE PHONE OFF and plug it in. Do not interrupt it until it has the green light, and it's best to let it continue charging for an hour even after that.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Going to try it your way
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Oh and I suggest JuicePlotter to monitor your battery.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Irieone:
Naked is Just Better

All,

Setcpu & autokiller have caused me no end of problems. I decided to stop using them over a week ago.... Since then, I have been running Conap's CFS kernel with XTR (both versions), KaosFroyo, and CELB.

I am achieving excellent battery life, have had zero stability issues, and performance is fantastic......

Just food for thought as you try to optimize your systems.

Peace!
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Yes I have stoppre using both since these Rom updates and newer kernels
[Droid Eris Android Development] kbfirebreather:
Should you keep phone plugged in or not plugged in when wiping stats?
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidfreak:
OK here is the deal I have noticed... in the past week and a half I think, SetCPU has updated twice... after the first update I had a sweetspot on my phone.. for a few days my battery would last all day into the night... then the last update a couple of days ago.. and it all went to h%ll... so what the heck is anybody else noticing differences since the SetCPU updates? I noticed this a while back, and quit using SetCPU but was trying it again with success, until now.. I didn't change my advanced user settings... no changes between updates...
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
new roms

new kernels

new updates on the horizon stay tuned
[Droid Eris Android Development] JmanK:
Uninstalling Auto Killer App not just update.

How do I remove or uninstall Auto Killer if it's built in to the rom KF v.32 ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Use titanium backup.
[Droid Eris Android Development] JmanK:
Tried that. It failed to find apk file.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
you're going to have to do it with an adb shell

i believe it'll be something like this but this probably won't do it. You'll have to ask in your ROM's topic.

adb shell

rm autokiller.apk
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
So what's the consensus on setcpu and auto killer with these new kerrnals? I still have both installed and just flashed kaos v34 with the cfs kernal and on my 1st cycle after wiping bat stats, so its not very indicative of acual performance, but im down 15% in an hour, that's a little unsettling, other times even 1st cycles was better than that
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
Same here for me with poor battery

And I hqve nothing installed

No setcpu

No auto killer

Didn't wipe my battery yet
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
Ok 7hrs and im down to 23% with setcpu and auto killer on my 1st cycle, next cycle my battery should be synchronized with the phone, ill see how that works, then run a cycle with auto and one with setcpu and one with out both then tell you guys what I find
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
good idea

cant wait to hear your reslults

but watch out for V.35 that will ruin your experiment and u gotta start over lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
It's incredibly important to wipe battery stats with new kernels since they effect how your phone sees "100%." It was the first thing I did. I'm on 24 hours now at 51%.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Bimmer323:
I'm about the same as you Hungry......around 20 hrs @ 52%. That's with medium usage and 3g on except for while I slept last night.

Running Nonsensikal 5.4 w/CFS and no SetCPU, Autokiller built in.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I left 3G and Sync on at night. I also only slept about 6 hours so I was using screentime quite a bit.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
So I guess im going to wait for kaosfroyo v35 to experiment , I flashed a different radio (2.02). I seem to get a stronger signal, -70 to -100, compared to -90 to -115 with 4.27, but my time without signal is 27% where as with 4.27 it sat around 3 and 4 %, but battery life seems better, so anyone on the gulf coast you might want to try this radio.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
I'm baaaaccckkk

Our phones are steady evolving thanks to the assume devs on here

Things are changing

But we may be able to figure out new tweaks

Have already been testing out under clocking Collins battery tweak

And its has been working out for me

Under clocked a custom settings

Got mine running at good ole 19min

Right now I'm on the middle of a battery calibration so by tomorrow I can really test it and show some data and screen shots

Heres to getting tweaked

Ds
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
I reinstalled setcpu and I'm messing around with it, I read the post on the battery tweak, I'm interested in trying it out. Are you running auto killer along with it? It dose the same as setcpu but in shell so its never a foreground process right?
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
I'm not using set CPU

I'm using the tweak like setcpu (sort-of) setcpu interferes with the tweak

And im still running auto killer
[Droid Eris Android Development] rigbyrobot:
your running collin_ph right?, Ive uninstalled setcpu, I've been getting much worse battery life with it, going to try colin when I get home
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
i like colin its like setcpu without setcpu

i down clocked to 19200 btw in custom settings
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
yea i been running some tests on that

i had to start all over after a flash and batt calibration

and i had some heavy apps running in the back (and i didnt know it)

but right now im testing colins batt tweak running (bye-bye setcpu) :eek:

been running THIS if anyone is you interested...

underclock mode

ummm ??? "deadline" scheduler i think it was called....

on battery 19200--710400max

on usb 480000--710400max

on a/c 19200--710400max

60 poll on battery (would like to try a higher poll later)

15 poll on usb

15 poll on a/c

30 percent underclock

but like i said im just testing right now

going to update the old thread when i get my findings

also when i did do this using system panel app my cpu looked very stable....no large jumpy clock like on setcpu (stay in the 100-200 clock range but remember so as u do any thing even touching the screen it goes up a little then comes back down.....THATS ONDEMAND PROFILE PEOPLE)
