[Q] governor min max - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

How do I change the min setting of my governor? I have setcpu, it list a number of available cpu speed and the slider has speed below 192 mhz but the cpu would never drop that low despite setting the min and max to values less than 192. How does one change the upper and lower preset values of the governor?

simple answer... DONT USE MORE THAN 800mhz... even 801 will burn your phone's motherboard thats all i can say..

I dont think so... It will just shorten the life of the cpu.

hi bscraze.,
i've posted my setcpu settings above...is it safe...?? whether i've to change max to 800Mhz...what about scaling...conservative or lag free..
pls post urs if u have...
My profiles for i5801:
Main tab - 200~700mhz on demand/lag free both works for me
Charging - 300~1200mhz on demand
Screen off - 83~500mhz on demand
Time 1am to 5.30am 83~83mhz powersave
You can try my profile, may work, may not but i advise you to change to 800mhz for your main tab.

You should keep it 800 max for normal usage because keeping high frequencies shortens processor life. Use higher frequencies(1000+) only when needed like when playing games and etc. At 800, in normal usage, all works smooth. Note I use lagfree as main profile. I suggest you also try lagfree once.

They are perfect. You don t have to worry about anything with those settings. If you use 1000+ frequencies for longer periods continuously then it may reduce your CPU life. Use only when required.

Cpu chips are made to last at least 5 yrs so dont worry about it and like what dhirend said, only if you keep it at high frequencies for long times will it dmg the cpu more.

[Q] Best settings in SetCPU / CPU tuner for STOCK KERNEL???

What are best settings for optimal/same performance and maximum battery savings in SetCPU or CPU tuner for stock ICS 4.0.4 KERNEL?
Thanks
I have Arc S LT18i (model 12w17). I can't unlock bootloader with testpoint at the moment and I do not wan't to do it officialy. I'm using SetCPU.
I have ondemand, conservative and interactive governors and noop and deadline schedulers. I'm always using using noop scheduler.
I have set ondemand 122-1401MHz for ScreenON & InCall profiles with sampling rate 40000 and up treshold 95.
I have set conservative 122-1024 for ScreenOFF profile with up treshold 70 and down treshold 30 and sampling rate 200000 (lowest possible for my stock kernel).
Will test it for a few days. If anybody has better settings and tested ones please help...
I think conservative is best for screen off, thinking about lowering freq to 122-806. What I'm mostly interested is if interactive is better for ScreenON and InCall use than ondemand for battery durability?
Updated some setting based on CPU Spy and some reading on xda forum.
ScreenOFF profile
Up/down 70/30 thresholds no good for conservative, changed to 90/40. Enabled ignore nice load. Changed freq_step from 5 to 10 to balance change of thresholds.
When playing music in background freq was 368 and was jumping to 768. With new settings freq was mostly 245 with jumps to 368.
ScreenON or Incall profile
Ondemand up threshold changed to 90 (smoother), enabled ignore nice load, sampling rate left to 40000.
Unsure if 122MHz freq is good to use because when playing music in background there are significantly more jumps to 1401 than from 245MHz.
On stock kernel, 122 and 245 both run on 900mV. Read on forum that 122MHz can use more battery because processes need more time to finish than on 245MHz, instead processes finish faster on 245MHz (and what bugs me is that both freq uses same voltage) and phone enters deep sleep faster.
245MHz is stock kernel minimum default. Any HELP?
you can search on xda about the settings of setcpu... there is a detailed description about all the settings and you can choose the ryt one according to you usage:good:

Imho profiles are useless since the more profiles you have, the more often the app needs to get active to check for a particular situation such as screen of, and governours already do that - they are profiles for the cpu

setcpu settings

What are people using for their setCPU settings? I'm just now rooting and will be installing this to help with battery life. Unless for some reason this isn't necessary on the S3. It was essential on the S2 (in my opinion) to keep my battery life going longer.
I'll start it off apparently!
Not messing with any governor, just the profiles.
Charging - CPU can run at 1512 max, 594 min - priority 100
Screen Off - CPU max of 594, min 384 - priority 99
Battery <80% - CPU max of 1242, min 594 - priority 80
Battery < 60% - CPU max of 810, min 384 - priority 60
Battery < 50% - CPU max of 594, min 384 - priority 50
No profile is exclusive

How well does it work if you're playing music and the screen is off?
I use 384 for both max & min when screen off and it works just fine for music player I have.

I don't have any music on my phone. I just use Pandora for everything, though i should probably put something on my phone.

What at are you using to set all this? Have you noticed any improvement in battery life of issues with apps running/ starting/ crashing??

I just set this up this morning and my phone has been sitting in my dock at work, so i can't say for sure about battery life. As for apps. I've not noticed a single problem. Again, I rooted my phone last night, so I don't have a ton of apps on my phone. Currently I have
Waze
Pandora
One More Clock
SetCPU
Betterbatterystats
MetroStation Icon Pack
Apex Launcher
NFC Task Launcher
Mynetdiary
Rom Manager Pro
Zedge.
Most of those are supporting apps. so it's hard to say if anything is flaking out yet. I'll slowly add more apps. I'm going to start a thread about known battery drain apps so we can start identifying those.
My Settings
Here are some settings I use that seem to work well for me. Id say these settings aren't the most conservative but they aren't battery hungry either. I didn't mess with any of the governors or voltages I just simply added these profiles to control my leankernel. Hope this helps! -Cheers

Do these settings still work good for you? I entered them into my SG3 so will see how it goes for the next few days. I am really looking for battery life more than anything.

SetCPU Profile Settings

Hi all,
Looking for the best settings for SetCPU Profiles to try give me optimum battery life on my Sensation while having it responsive while I'm using it.
Default settings for my ROM tend to be a little laggy when I first unlock the phone for a bit too long so want to customise everything to try make it last forever using minimum battery when off (would prefer it when it was locked vs unlocked but doesn't seem to be an option).
Anyway, recommended profiles appreciated.
Thanks
screen off: maxfreq 192 mhz
minfreq 192 mhz
battery<=15%: lower maxfreq than set
battery<=10%: even lower maxfreq
charging any: maxfreq 1188mhz
minfreq 192 mhz
these are some that i'm using
i hope you like them

That's a super low freq when screen off - no problem with phone doing background updates at that low?
Do you have many things doing background sync?
Whats a good temperature to set as a max at which point it turns everything down?
background sync: only weather widget and google acount.nothing else
about temperature i have set battery>=44C:lower frequency than set
that's all
i hope i helped you

Can't get Tasker to change CPU clock speeds

I'm trying to set a screen off profile to lower CPU speeds. I have the Governor set to powersave, the min set to 300000, the max set to 652800. I ran the task and it asked for root, so that was a good sign. I used the no thrlls CPU app and it definitely has the profile set to powersaver, however the clock speeds were at 1.7 to 2.4 GHtz instead of 300 to 652 MHtz.
If I can't get this figured out, can anyone suggest a CPU governing app that allows profiles such as this?

I haven't messed with CPU Profiles in quite a while, so apologies if this doesn't help, but have you tried using SetCPU? I usually just use that to set up a Screen Off profile.
