I've tried to understand this app, even paid for it but can't seem to "get it" now that it is running. I set max to 1900 and min to 384. The settings hold on reboot, but screen says max is only 1350. I don't understand the profiles, regardless of which I choose nothing changes. Anyone willing to give me a 101 on this please?

power saving mode (in the notification bar... the stock function from the factory) limits it to 1350 when on. turn it off, and BAM back up to full speed. at least on my phone.
That did it, much THANKS!!!!!

anyone got what they think is the best configuration for SetCPU?
stock configuration works great for me
min cpu = 225 (or something like that)
max cpu = 995 (again, or something like that)
????
Stock settings are:
Min: 245
Max: 998
CPU Governer: On demand
Charging 998/998
Sleep/Standby 499/245
Power < 25% 576/245
i concur about the stock clock settings, they work best for me. 998 high/245 low
i am opting for stock... im going to assume that htc/google did their research to give us the best blend of CPU speeds depending on what the phone is doing and what the battery power is...
if stock settings are 998 mhz why overclock it? can you get more from the processor than that?

you probably can, but you'd just end up burning it out. what you can do is set the low a bit higher than 245. more battery drain will result.
So what are the out of the box settings on the CPU if you dont use setCPU?
Read this thread you will see them
No one has messed with this app?
I have mine set @ stock, but have also enabled a profile for when the phone is asleep. I set it at 300/245. Not really sure if it makes a difference in battery life.
Mine is set to the A1clock speed which is 768max and 245 min.. no lag when swippin and in act1 video player its still smooth..even a droids 550mhz stock speed. Also got it 245max/min when sleep, remember to exclude setcpu if you u wanna see results..

What's a1clock?
I noticed that when using SetCPU and setting the minimum CPU speed to 245mhz, it seems like the CPU doesnt clock down to 245, but instead stays at 998. By setting the minimum to 328, it works.
Where can u see that?

I agree...where are all you guys/gals seeing/getting information like that off of the phone. What are the apps needed to monitor that information.
Also, exactly what is the stock CPU settings?

I noticed something similar.
When setting it to 998/245 and hit refresh 5 or 6 times you'll never see something under 998 at the top.
When setting min to something else than 245 but keeping 998 for max and hitting refresh 5 or 6 times you'll see the min value a few times when refreshing.
####################
where is the difference between on demand, user space and performance and what did you take? I took performace for some weeks and just set it to on demand (and 998/245)
so what settings would be proper to set to see a difference?
Probably an easy question. I want to save settings. Would these settings make sense.
Sleep/standby - 245 Max/245 low. I assume this keeps processor at lowest levels...
Power < 100% - I pick battery lvl obviously, but if i went 745 max/245 min. Any downside to that? Outside of the loss of some speed.
If you have a more optimal set-up. Please pass on the advice!
-thanks
I have always 245 min 576 max
We dont really use the 1ghz hehe
I keep getting force closings when trying to run the app and then it tells me I'm not rooted. Also says something about superuser access. What the hell?
I am having a problem with my screen staying on long enough to unlock it. It also happens when in a call and I need to push a number. When I push power to unlock the screen, it only stays on for a fraction of a second then goes out. The bottom row of buttons stays light and will vibrate if i push them but nothing happens. It will do this over and over until finally it lets me unlock the phone. Also when I am on a call and remove the phone from my ear the screen does the same exact thing. Stays on only for a fraction of a second and so on........... This is my third G2X and my first one did this as well. I don't use any kind of lock screen app such as widget locker and when I do try it, it still does the same thing. Anyone have any Ideas???
Are you using SetCPU? I had a similar issue when I set my "screen off profile" in SetCPU to 216 max and 216 min with a priority of 100. I changed it to 312 max 216 min. Now no issues.
Battery seems about the same.

I do, and I use the same profile you mentioned. I am going to switch it now and try that. Thanks for your quick help!!
(Edit) Yes, that seems to be the culprit. I froze SetCPU for now and problem solved. Now I will change the settings to 312-216. Thanks Again
Happy to help. I am new to this android stuff, but I am beginning to figure things out through trial and error.
Does anyone knows how to use SETCPU app for G2x? I read somewhere states that if setting the min at 312 will help/reduce the freeze problem. I downloaded the SETCPU app but has no clue what to do, under menu/devices it does not list G2x phone. Please helps. I'm running EB 1.04, besides the freeze problem, no complains. Thanks much.
Open SetCpu. Click the bottom left key (settings). Click on device selction. Choose Tegra 2. It will check for root. Follow the steps. Next click profiles. Choose Screen Off. Set to max 312, min 216, prority 100.
On the main screen, I use max 1000, min 216.
Those are the settings that have seemed to work the best for me.
Be sure to clink on the "set on boot" option on the main screen. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your help.
Ive seen an undervolting option in systemtunerpro and ive seen people talking about undervolting.
what will it do to my phone?
if so what should I under volt it to?
the app has 2 buttons that add or subtract 12.5(I think I can't check right now) to all the values at one time. how many times should I press it?
I've searched but cant find nothing

If you do it right your battery lasts longer and your cpu will be cooler.
It means that the cpu needs less power than normal. But every cpu is different, so you can probably not undervolt that much like someone other.
If you want to do it right, try this:
Search the App "Stability Test".
Then go into System Tuner and look, which Cpu-Freq. are needed most. These are the ones on which you should focus on to undervolt.
First you can set all freq. -25mv, then run the "scaling stability test" in the stability test app. If your phone doesn't freeze in the next 15 min, you can set -25mv again. Do this until your phone reboots or abort the test itself. Then set it 2 steps above the values which didn't work to prevent reboots.
Now you should change only the freq which were used most. But only one after one. If your phone uses (for example) 192 mhz, 1,08ghz and 1,5 ghz most, first undervolt the 192mhz (again till your phone reboots or you can't set it lower).
Then the same with 1,08 Ghz and then 1,5Ghz. If your phone reboots, set it 2 steps above the value which didn't work, so you can be sure that your phone doesn't reboot again.
If you found out which values your phone can handle, go into "System Tuner", CPU, Voltage, Boot settings, then "Re-apply CPU Settings". For the first time you should set it to "On boot completed", if you didn't notice any problem you can set it to "init.d script".
If this doesn't work for you, go back to "voltages", then hold "reset all/clear" till it changes to "save defaults". Press it once, so your values are set as defaults. If you rebooted your phone you have only to go into "System Tuner" and press "Reset all/clear" once, then it will set your values again.
I hope my englisch is good enough to understand it
