Set CPU Profiles

[pyro6128]

What profiles are you guys using and at what speeds?

[natediddy1120]

Here is mine right now:

Charging: 800/125
Sleep/Standby: 250/250
Power < 40%: 550/550
Battery > 40%: 550/125

What profiles are you guys using and at what speeds?

Regular: 1000mhz/1000mhz

Profiles:
Charging: 800mhz/125/mhz
Sleep/Standby: 250mhz/125mhz
Battery < 30% 550mhz/125mhz
Battery > 42C 550mhz/125mhz

what are you using for cpu governor?

what are you using for cpu governor?

userspace, but to be honest, i have no idea the difference between the two lol if someone could let me know....

There's a thread around here somewhere where somebody posted a quote from the guide to using SetCPU from the dev that made it.....and it explains what all the CPU governors do exactly...

Here's the website to explain - SetCPU

for a quick answer, here's what the governor's do.

*copied from SetCPU dev website....
The CPU Governor drop down box contains a list of CPU "governors" that the phone can use. Available governors will vary with your specific device and kernel. The Performance governor, called "Always Max" on previous versions of SetCPU, allows your phone to run at maximum speed, ignoring all power saving functions. The "ondemand" setting is default, and scales the phone between the maximum and minimum speeds. On some kernels, the "conservative" governor is also available. The "conservative" governor ramps up the CPU more slowly than the "ondemand" governor, leading to slower responsiveness but better battery performance.

Here is a very good article describing the purpose of the different governors in the Linux kernel (the Linux kernel section is the valid part of this article):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underclocking#Linux

I would personally recommend either ondemand or conservative to get performance when necessary and battery savings when possible. You can also use userspace, but it would likely only adjust on your profile settings, where conservative and ondemand should adjust based on kernel load AND your profile settings.

If you want an even more detail explanation, look here:

I am personally using this right now:

Governor: Conservative

Normal: 1000MHz/125MHz
Charging: 550/125
Sleep/Standby: 250/125
Power < 30%: 550/125
Battery >45C: 550/125
