So I read setcpu is not necessary with cm7 since it's already implemented with the rom. I'm just wondering why some people still use setcpu with it, are there any benefits?
I'm running latest version of cm7 with stock kernel.
*I'm also wondering what kernels you all use with cm7?
SetCPU has way more features than CM7's built-in CPU Governor.
With SetCPU, you're able to set custom CPU profiles to lower CPU Usage In-Call, when the screen is off, or when the battery hits a certain percentage... etc.
You're also able to control undervoltage in SetCPU (If you're using a custom kernel)
Thank you, so I can run them both simultaneously or is it possible to close the built in one?

I don't think it's possible to remove the CM7 Governor, but you can just use SetCPU with no problems at all.
Are you using CM7 as well? What kernel are you running it with?

Just disable the 'set on boot' setting in the CM7 settings and enable 'set on boot' in setCPU

I realize you didn't ask me, but for reference, I'm running CM7 with faux's 0.4.2 kernel.

I'm running Nightly build 154 with Faux 0.4.2 with SV and DS battery driver...i get performance and great battery life. I use SETCpu and I've been OC'd @ 1.4 for about 3hrs now and my battery has only gone down 2% with mild texting and no overheating. My battery's temp has been constant at around 88-90 degrees.
If you're looking for the right Kernel...Faux's 0.4.2 with SV and DS battery driver is the way to go.

Wipe cache wipe dalvik flash kernel then go to advanced and fix permissions...enjoy

With no disrespect to bedwa I feel the hellraiser kernel is better. Even with overclock infusion doesnt seem as fast. The hellraiser and entropys kernels also now have initramfs mods from the att gb leak that give faster data speeds and functional wifi on att based roms that are to come.
Others may have a different oppinion. Also I'm not sure what is packaged in that rom.

*DISCLAIMER - I'm very new with all of this*
I agree with you, Dani. I played around with several different kernels and ROMs before settling where I'm at. I'm in love with Entropy's daily driver. Between solid battery life, very decent data speeds, and overall snappiness, it's the best thing I've used so far....

I'm going to assume right off the bat you're on an EE4 froyo rom? the safest is 1.4ghz however not many peoples phones (myself included when I was on froyo) will be stable, there were random reboots and lockups galore... I was stable at 1.2ghz but as I said everyone's phones are different, but to answer your question yes you can go up to 1.4

You can overclock with that, but personally, why would you use an app to load a module to overclock? You're forcing the system to do something it doesn't want to, which could easily lead to problems.

you need to change the model in the build.prop file.
it needs to say SCH-I510 not humble by Danalo1979 for the app to know what phone you are on.

Hey guys,
Searched the original page here, couldn't find an answer. So here's my question. Now that the US govt has done it and shut down websites, I was just wondering, would anyone happen to have a copy of the Tsugi ROM that's been undervolted?
If not, could someone point me to guides on how to undervolt and maybe even the ideal settings for overclocking using setcpu?
Thanks in advance!
You can get the Tsugi UV kernel on ROM Manager.

Questions from a noob. Is this different from the undervolted file? What do I do with each file? Substitute them for the installation guide on the front page of the tsugi rom guide?
the one that i linked to on 2shared is the overclocked undervolted file. ideally you should flash the ROM first through CWM, and then the kernel through CWM. try the undervolted file, if its stable, then keep it, if its not stable, try the one that is just overclocked and not undervolted.

Kinda new to the world of flashing. How do you distinguish between the rom and the kernel?
in the development thread for the G2x, the rom threads start with [ROM], that would be the easiest way.

Wait. So that file you gave me. Does it have the rom and kernel, or just one?
ETA: The link the dev provides here has a download link to a "smartinstaller." is that the ROM? And the oyasumi 0.1 UV is the kernel, right?
Gah. This is stuff is confusing but interesting to learn!

correct, the TSUGI rom has a smart installer that does everything for you. it simply installs the ROM. afterwards, its suggested that you get the oyasumi KERNEL.
ROM is most analogous to an operating system, and kernel allows the operating system to interact with the hardware. you need to install the two separately. ROM first, and then kernel.

How about creating a separate thread for that question instead of hijacking mine? Or better yet, search around. I've chosen to use Tsugi because of its reputation for stability and battery life.

You could underclock/undervolt and set profiles, but not overclock. There are only two OTA based kernels for G2x, Dragon or Faux.

Probably the only difference is which one your phone works best with. You should try them both out for a couple of days nd then stick with whichever u like the best.
