Power profile - Motorola Droid 3

Ok so in framework res, in the xml file I found a document called power profile and if you read the contents it says the cpu speeds, could we just change the speeds from 1000 to something else to overclock it?

It will underclock when the CPU is idle or on a low load to save battery. I have the Temp+CPU widget which will show the CPU has 3 speeds, 1Ghz, 600mhz and 300mhz. I have maximum battery saver enabled, this could be why it does this.

Ok that makes sense, maybe we can modify it to find some way to oc our d3

SetCPU settings for battery life

I have it set on the defaults. 245-998. and governor on demand. does this make sense? abit noobish sorry. running enomther

Also, I hope all these settings are reversible.. ie if I uninstall the program it goes back to what it was before?
The default settings is what heard works best. I don't use setup because it feels like I get worse battery life with it. I feel my phone gets great battery life without the program. Yes if you uninstall and reboot you are back to the settings before you installed the program.
That's not the part that saves battery, you need to enable profiles and down clock the cpu when it is asleep.
Which profiles do we enable? (that's the same basic setup I'm using too)
anyone?

I'm sure someone will answer. I just downloaded set CPU to play with so once I find something I'll post.
you can enable the sleep/standby profile (setting the max to 245 and min as 245 as well); you can also set up the charging profile, failsafe profile, and when the power is below certain level
EDIT: the very basic setting to save some battery would be to enable the Standby/Sleep profile (set both max/min to 245)
Ok. Looking at it it seems very simple.enable profiles. Edit the sleep profile and set tour max to whatever you like. Seems straightforward to me, this is the first time I've looked or messed with it.
Oops. Should've refreshed before posting.
Ok. I'm using Enomther 1.8.1. And in spare parts there is a setting to set max and min cpu frequency, i left it as defualt which is the same default in SetCPU min max 245/998
So I went into profiles and enables sleep profile and set min max 245/245 but when I come out.. it says my defualt is now max min 384/245
Why did the defualt change im using only sleep profile and main profile
EDIT: makes sense the Max would fluctuate since I set it on demand.. Of course I wouldnt expect the CPU to be at 998 all the time . Sleep set at 245/245
I set all profiles to be 'on demand' and then sleep is 245/245, awake is 245/1113 and charging is 245/652 (stop it getting too hot)
imo sleep on 245/245 isn't the best. cos basic functions like clock won't be updated. it would update when wake causing even more CPU draw. my sleep is set at 325 max

exactly. Oh by the way, I just saw your msg, I use both juicedefender and setcpu.

Thanks for the help man, hopefully this'll help me out a bit with my battery life.
Those profiles are all 'on demand' though right?

rubiX Focused 2.0: Raising the Bar Another Notch!

Check out the review by Blair at GizmoNinja! Droid X ROM Review, rubiX ROMs! Updated 12/26/2010 NEW rubiX ROM 1.9.5 Release!!
YOU MUST BE ON 2.3.340 OTA FOR THIS TO WORK
ALSO NOTE: IF YOU INSTALLED THE NEW TRANQUILITY, THE TOOLBOX WILL INSTALL UNLESS YOU SBF BEFORE INSTALL. THIS IS TRUE FOR ANY ROM, NOT JUST RUBIX.
IF YOU USED THE NEW SCRIPT, YOU MUST REBOOT AFTER INSTALL AND INITIAL SETUP
This script runs on first boot to scan the SDCard rubiX Folder for apps. If they are there, it copies them to /data/app and corrects their permissions. Reboot for this to take effect.
YOU MUST wipe data before install.
Change Log for 2.0:
* Sysctl.conf adjustments:
Changed vm.dirty_background_ratio to 70 from 60
* Added rm /dev/log/main for extra performance/free memory
* Changed NO_NEW_FAIR_SLEEPERS to NO_FAIR_SLEEPERS; this was a typo, as there are no new fair sleepers in the dx kernel already.
* Cleaned up the /system/app folder
The following market apps were further removed:
Talkback
Kickback
Soundback
* Added new Interactive and Conservative kernel scaling governors (credit Milestone team)
This is a Droid X first. These two governors bring a big difference to the table; here is what they do:
(Credit Cyanogenmod GITHub for this, source is here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/cm-k...60f39120/Documentation/cpu-freq/governors.txt)
Interactive:
Advantages:
+ significantly more responsive to ramp cpu up when required (UI interaction)
+ more consistent ramping, existing governors do their cpu load sampling in a workqueue context, the 'interactive' governor does this in a timer context, which gives more consistent cpu load sampling.
+ higher priority for cpu frequency increase, rt_workqueue is used for scaling up, giving the remaining tasks the cpu performance benefit, unlike existing governors which schedule rampup work to occur after your performance starved tasks have completed.
Conservative:
The CPUfreq governor "conservative", much like the "ondemand"
governor, sets the CPU depending on the current usage. It differs in
behaviour in that it gracefully increases and decreases the CPU speed
rather than jumping to max speed the moment there is any load on the
CPU. This behaviour more suitable in a battery powered environment.
The governor is tweaked in the same manner as the "ondemand" governor
through sysfs with the addition of:
freq_step: this describes what percentage steps the cpu freq should be
increased and decreased smoothly by. By default the cpu frequency will
increase in 5% chunks of your maximum cpu frequency. You can change this
value to anywhere between 0 and 100 where '0' will effectively lock your
CPU at a speed regardless of its load whilst '100' will, in theory, make
it behave identically to the "ondemand" governor.
down_threshold: same as the 'up_threshold' found for the "ondemand"
governor but for the opposite direction. For example when set to its
default value of '20' it means that if the CPU usage needs to be below
20% between samples to have the frequency decreased.
Basically, this means more speed and battery life control
* Adjusted 01cpu for a better sampling rate if the new conservative governor is found.
* Added script: gov
gov allows you to control which governor you use; ondemand, conservative, or interactive. The function is:
gov -ondem for the ondemand governor
gov -cons for the conservative governor
gov -inter for the interactive governor
Alternately, these can be changed via SetCPU or Droid Overclock.

Hey Drod, Keep Bangin em out.Rubix in General Is StR8 up Sik lookin forward to this one!
about to start installing in 2 min
Got my Approval bruh..Bring on Tron Theme..LOL

Yes it's really rubiX Focused 1.9.7
will the themes for 1.95 work on this rom (black jiuce)?
Will this work for the droid 2 ? Since the
Old rubix was said to be working for the droid 2..
Just wanted to say the clock-speed/voltage optimization app is amazing. I get better battery life on RubiX than on any other ROM (and I have tried them all).
This is faster than liberty was for me. Glad I came back to RubiX.
Is there a zip to remove animation and put it back to stock. This is rom is so fast that I hit the quadrant score of 1500 without overclocking. Thxs for a great rom. I tried them all.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I am going to install this rom tonight. I currently have liberty installed and am happy with it and not having any trouble but unless I try other ones I won't know if I like any others better. I would like to see better battery life and it sounds like I might see it with this rom.

I was able to permanently get rid of the TranQ Toolbox without SBF. Basically, you just need Root Explorer (or equivalent) to remove all the TranQ files from /data, /data/data, /data/dalvik-cache, /data/preinstall_md5, /preinstall/app, /preinstall/md5, etc. The easiest way is to do a search (at /) in Root Explorer for tranq, and then manually remove them.
Does anybody know how to enable 3 d gallery through terminal emulator. Everytime I try to enable it, it tells me not found. Yes I give it SU permission. It gives me the options either 3d or 2d. I type 3d hit enter, then it tells me not found.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Never mind I figured it out.
I'm having problems with images showing up as black in any of the galleries or image viewers. Sometimes the thumbnails will display properly, though. In the camera app, if I take a picture and then look at the gallery, thumbnails of images on my sd card will show up, but only one for each picture I took. Pictures taken with the camera never show up. What is going on here and is there a way to fix it? I think rubix is great, otherwise, and would really like to continue using it if the camera and image problems can be fixed.

try swapping to the 3d gallery
type in terminal emulator:
su
gallery -3d
Did anyone by any chance make a flashable zip of the modified services.jar file for this rom for uncapped data? That would be awesome if someone can post it!

SetCPU settings for double battery life

Hey guys can someone share what's the best profile and configuration to double the battery life in our devices using setCPU..
Thanks in Advance!
Sent from my CSL-MI410 using XDA App
Hi there,
I think, it depends on how is your settings now. You can try 500 mhz and disable mobile data first.
hmm.. okay.. will 500Mhz double the life and also give a decent performance??
i'm more concern on the voltage control.
can everyone share their fine profile for voltage?
btw, my setcpu setting were recommended by CacingKalung.
25mhz and 1125mhz with smartassv2.

The following works for me all the time
Main Profile - MAX - Dont set it all the way to OC if you are using any of the modded kernels, keep it just above 1Ghz, i set at 1200.
MIN - around 600. Use SmartassV2, if unavailable use Performance.
Turn on Profiles and set 2 important profile
Screen Off - MAX & MIN - 122Mhz. Priority 90%, Set governer Conservative
In Call - MAX - Around <=500, MIN = Around 300, Priority - 100, Set governer Performance. This is to avoid any lags when call comes in
With this I am able to stretch the battery easily to 1.5 days. I have observed the performance to be uniform whether on CM7 or MIUI.
Additionally I also configure Adv Task Killer Pro - Always on, Kill Task when screen off, and dont forget to set Ignore for - SetCPU.
This combo of SetCPU and Task Killer works for me ! Try and see if it meets your expectations
How are you able to set exact values of 122 MHz or 300/500 MHz?
On stock ROM, SetCPU only allows for a slider to control the frequency which doesn't allow for precision setting since after about 368 MHz the slider only goes to around 700+ MHz skipping all the frequencies possible in between.

Im using SET CPU and the ondemand governer gives very good battery life. I keep the min speed to 122 MHZ and Max to 1024 MHZ.
Made three profiles for screen off, temp >40deg and In call. Screen off profile kept to 122MHZ, certainly improved my battery by leaps and bounds.

[Q] How many cores are working under Android?

Are both cores working? Is there an app where I can monitor that? I use SetCPU and have it @ 1.5Ghz on-demand.
Thanks...
You can try CPU Guage from the market
Simple speedometer type guage, shows each core and if active
Both cores are operational in android roms, when needed. That is a fact.
With this app and ondemand setting, core two only kicks in if you exercise the screen quickly by switching between the cpu speed an temperature screens
There are probably other apps that will show the cores better
Good luck
In setCPU select info then CPU and it will show processor 0 and processor 1 but only when the core is been used so make sure something is running

deep idle ot screen off profiles?

which one is more effective?? enabling deep idle or setting set cpu screen off profiles to min100-max 400 mhz??? or shall i keep both???
currently on slim ics v3.5 semaphore kernel 1.1.1sbm

I prefer deep idle, that way cpu will consume less power as well when an app needs higher cpu it will allow up to 800 mhz.(if app don't need high cpu it will be at 100 mhz) If you are extracting huge zip or rar file or converting media file/video/audio rendering then you can turn off screen and there will be enough cpu to those apps. If you don't use any high cup intensive apps in background while your screen is off then go for both.
