SetCPU and GB's OC/UV

Seems like everyone has abandoned any idea of using SetCPU on a custom ROM. I'm currently running Glitterballs's 1.2 GHz OC/UV kernel, and it seems to be working perfectly. I'm going to update the op with how it works through the day. I currently have a screenoff profile set and a screenon profile set, with no issues. Feel free to try it yourself, however I wouldn't try it on any kernel besides Glitterballs's just yet until I do more testing. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419.
I just installed SetCPU and it looks like it's working very well so far!
SetCPU crashed my phone when I put it to sleep... just use OC/UV to do your OCing.. no need to use setCPU.
YMMV, but I've been using SetCPU with every OC/UV kernel I've ever tried. I don't use any of the "profile" features, but I do use it to control the CPU speed and keep track of "time_in_state" stats and a few other things.
That includes SetiroN's kernel, Unhelpful's 2.1 kernel, and Glitterball's kernel. I even sometimes use it on non-OC kernels just to change the CPU power scheduler, like to force a specific speed.
Again, might be different for others, but in my experience, there's nothing wrong with SetCPU.

[Q] NStools like app for Samsung Infuse

Hi,
There is a nice app on Market i.e. "NSTools". It have a touchwake function.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333696
I wonder is there any touchwake like app for samsung infuse. As i dont want to use power/vol button to bring screen back. The "Tap Tap app" of Market drains battery fast.
Thanks

As far as I know (having used NSTools on my Nexus S), the kernel would need to support the functionality held within that app. I think the app just enables the different sections when it recognizes that the kernel supports it.
That being said, I don't know if any kernel, gb or froyo, supports touch wake. I could be wrong but I don't remember ever seeing that in any kernel description on here.
Thanks for your feedback. You are right, Samsung Infuse kernel dont support the touchwake.

[Q] Is it possible to overclock LG P690 Optimus net? if so how?

I have the LG Optimus Net P690. Im lookoing to overclock it as i find a small lag in the animated wallpapers. I have tried certain tools like set cpu, Android Overclock, No-frills CPU Control, etc. none of tese are able to help me overclock. however i find it possible to underclock with them. Is there any software that can help me overclcok, or some other procedure to directly interfere with the kernal.
You must have rom with kernel that allows overclocking and a rooted phone. Try to search in Legacy & Low Activity Devices

Best app for overclocking

Hi what is the best app for overclocking the Xperia Play i have only rooted and have a locked bootloader if that helps
I personally like SetCPU. It lets you create profiles for apps, so you can have your cpu run at a higher speed when playing games etc.
SetCPU.
It's very flexible, intuitive and it let to create custom profiles (when is connected to USB, screen off, call or using a specified app)

Will Setcpu work on the stock kernel (2.3.4)?
Must boot loader unlocked for over clock.then install setcpu.

I think it will, but u can only set frequency between the factory values (~250-1000mhz). To go below or above you must install a custom kernel. I prefer Doomkernel, because you can set speed up to 2 ghz.
I would suggest loading DoomKernel, but first you need to have your bootloader unlocked.
hey guy,
have you tried "system tuner pro" yet ?
by that apk you can change CPU , tweaks , task manager , start up setting , SD booster ,....
please check that, that's realy useful
I use no-frills CPU
no problems here, and I think profiles are pointless since that's what governors are for.

mini-app is a unique thing to the Galaxy Tab 2, so it would have to be developed as a mini-app.Right now, the only mini-apps that are available are the Samsung ones. because it is a proprietary of samsung (like the IR blaster) so the only thng you can do is port it. but it requires touch wiz ux frame work so the whole rom should be ported and it is a difficult thing.
It'ss impossible because it need Samsung's framework that' diferent from Android original (CM9 one)
Could always DL equivalent min apps and use something like sidebar launcher to launch them. Tiny apps has a few like floating apps like calc, notes, and music controls. Also their is floating browser, popcorn player, and many more.
Screen with sidebar launcher, and some floating apps running
