When I use ANY CPU control app on ANY ROM on my D850, the set CPU min and max frequencies are reported as a random interval between 300 and 960MHz, and the only way to get it to go back up is to restart the phone and apply as soon as I start it. I can hit apply 100 times in a row, and the frequencies set are different each time. The min is always 300, but the max is completely random.
The different integrated CPU control apps in ROMs simply don't work at all, that's why I'm using a 3rd party app.
Any ideas? My performance has been absolutely terrible randomly on and off since I installed candy5 a few months ago. Most of the time it's fine, but sometimes it's so frustrating it takes a lot to not throw my phone into a concrete wall.
I had the same problem you had until I used fauxclock. It's expensive but it worked for me. I also own a D850.

What scaling setting do you use, maybe you have custom profile?
I personally use 'ondemand', but I was thinking.... It would be nice to have a smart scaling setting, based on the amount the phone is used, screen brightness and the battery temperature, etc.

Hi.
I've set mine at 576 max and left minimum at 245, scaling is on demand, and have set a profile for screen off at 245 for both. I've left the advanced screen as I don't have a clue what any of it means lol.
Non
Used it at first when got rooted. still on root BA23 firmware and im very happy with the current setup. I left the processor to operate the way it want to do.
Dont take me wrong, its a great software, everything is depends on overall apps you are running. and its unique to your phone, check its really necessary.
After-all we are talking about android, not windows.
I want to know the best setting also I had some custome profiles (after reading in a post on XDA) but phone got slow, laggy & sometimes call drop. Then i deleted all custome profiles

I had that problem once. But i think it is a OS bug than the SetCPU bug itself. You should re-root your fone and set profiles one more time. It will help you save a lot of battery
My setting (following someone on the net)
- Fully chage (AC/USB): 998/245
- Screenoff: Max: 348 Min: 245
- Battery <25%: Max: 348 Min: 245
Ok Dundun, I've set profiles again same as yours let's see how it workd
Just came across this thread for decent SetCPU setting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734886
Hi all,
I found out that when I use kyrillos ROM 4.1 OC edition on my samsung galaxy apollo i-5800 then the phone sometimes freezes with only a reboot possible.
It occured to me this happened only in idle (no cpu intensive actions) mode.
With setcpu I raised the lower frequency limit from 83 to 166 Mhz (also in screen-off profile), because I thought the freezing could be related with lower 83 Mhz.
Since then I "never" ran into freezes anymore with my phone...no issues when cpu is between 166 and 1300 mhz (yes no issues even at high clock speed, against all laws ).
I just wanted to share this information for other people having the freezing issue, maybe also on other customized ROMS, just try this min cpu setting if it works for you
BTW I didnt really notice worse battery life with this 'remedy'
Enjoy your phone, it's made for you !!!

i5800 freeze
I'm new on this forum, but I'm used to flash my phone.
I got the next problem, I'm running Kyrillos'rom 9.7.1 (update) for 2 weeks.
On my first install of kyrillos my phone freezes when I was 2 minutes working, so I installed setcpu to lower the cpu-speed and It worked.
Now, I had to flash my phone again, because I did something wrong in the system file.
I re-installed the kyrillos 9.7.1 update with Odin, but then, when my phone boots, it almost immediately freezes when I do something.
I don't get the time to install setcpu to lower the freqency
I tried it almost 20 times...
Can anyone help me lowering the frequency?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
It worked, I finaly got into my files to install set cpu! After 30 times rebooting...
But My question is still there, because It's almost impossible for me to flash my phone again now!
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.
Hey guys,
I noticed another issue but don't know if it's rom-related.
When I push the power or volume-button to wake up the device, it sometimes takes 3-5 seconds until it wakes up and display powers on.
It seems that this issue is showing up more often than a few days before. I would say it happens every 5th to 8th time I wake up the device. :-/
Can anyone confirm this?
Check your minimum Clock speed i.e. in SetCPU or NoFrills what is the minimum speed the processor can run at?
If it's very low then increase it a little.
Minimum CPU-speed is 384Mhz set through SebastianFMs kernel I think. Will NoFrills overwrite kernel settings for testing?
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
rom is Prime 5 with bricked kernel 1.0 badass gov

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
