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?

[Q] Battery Life

Ok so I tried all of the following battery life tweaks:
collin_ph Battery Tweak
DecaMOD Battery Tweak
SetCPU
Overclock Widget
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
collin_ph Battery Tweak didn't seem to work, I guess.
DecaMOD Battery Tweak didn't seem to work either.
SetCPU freezes my phone whenever I overclock it.
Overclock Widget works, but it doesn't seem to be working now.
One night my battery was ay 92%, I had Overclock widget on and had the Screen Off preferences set to as low as possible. I woke up the next morning and it was still at 92%. I thought it was really awesome, but I removed it to try SetCPU, SCPU froze, so then I reverted to OC Widget and it doesn't seem to be working D:
Any tips - tricks for SetCPU or OC Widget?

Collin's and DecaMOD are both "passive" apps, so you wouldn't really notice a difference, depending on use. At least in my experience. Did you enable profiles and set some up when you were using SetCPU?

You aren't using a bat tweak AND set cpu/overclock widget are you? If so, there is your problem. Never have more than one thing controlling your clock speed. One tweak or one app. No more

+1. No no no. Use one only

ah i have colin battery tweak and overclock but i get at least 11 hrs with both of em on. So to stop overclock just kill the app with task killer? or don't grant it superuser?
I just flashed colin battery tweak to see what it had to offer

You can just uninstall one of them. Look for 16 - 24 hrs of battery life. That's about avg. I would say. I get about 16 on fairly heavy use.

[Q] Extend Battery Life??

I want to know if there is a script or something some trick to extend battery life??...i don't want programs or anything else...

1. Stay on 2G. Data activity using 3G/HSDPA drains battery the fastest.
2. Minimum brightness
3. No vibration if possible
4. Use custom kernels with governors such as smartassV2 or lazy or SavagedZen implementing deep sleep.
5. Don't sync too often (Facebook, Twitter, 4square etc.) Keep 'em syncing every 2 hours or so.

thanks man

try set cpu or any application that can pro-long battery,but it can cause your mobile to lag sometimes..

this topic may help you to improve your battery life
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198333

keep the brightness low.....
turn the auto sync off when not in use........
turn off haptic feedback.........
always clear off runnings apps.......

Or get an extended battery from my favorite Mugen Power for 1400mAh which has OEM size and adds 17% more capacity.

Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1904280 or flash this slim rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956127

Max battery saving
Use a light rom like the Cyanogenmod 7 for Galaxy Mini and switch off every transition animation possible. Switch off auto-rotate if not using. Underclock to about 400 Mhz. and set ondemand as the governor. Lower screen brightness. After that, DANCE and shake your butt.

Just rooted, how to increase RAM and CPU

How do I increase the speed of my Z1 by increasing the RAM and CPU?

not any help sorry but am curious to know why you need extra speed (faster cpu)?
can understand underclocking the cpu to save battery but the phone already runs incredibly fast, an extra 100/200mhz wont make much difference other than kill your battery quicker.

You can use any of the apps from the Play Store such as:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.noFrillsCPU
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antutu.CpuMasterFree
There you can change governors and try to overclock your CPU. DO BARE IN MIND THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BRICK YOUR PHONE !!!!
If you don't know what you are doing, don't play with fire.
The device is already super fast. You could downclock it if you want more battery life but its safer to just use apps such as Greenify or the built in stamina mode.

I guess I meant I need to increase my batterylife, I already have Greenify and I did mean underclocking but it came out wrong. I want to drastically increase my batterylife without installing a ROM.

Well if you want to OC you'd need a kernel that supports that. To increase ram, you can delete system apps that you don't need, use greenify to hibernate apps and in developer options, lower background process limit. If you want to make things snappier, you could lower the window animation, transition animation and animator duration (in dev options)

Choppy, Laggy Animations with Custom Kernels

Has anyone else noticed or does anyone else gave a solution to the major decrease in smoothness and fluidity of Lollipop's animations and UI navigation when using any of the current custom kernels available?
I've mostly used Sensei and I LOVE everything it allows me to do; especially battery life enhancement gained from tweaking voltage and clock speed but... One of the primary things I noticed in Lollipop when I first unboxed my nexus was how gorgeous and pleasant and smooth my phone was to use! It was like Project Butter all over again but instead properly implemented! As soon as I flash a custom kernel however, this goes away and animations can sometimes briefly hang, they're choppy, and their speeds are inconsistent.
Might there be a specific settings or value I can change or adjust that could be affecting this? Perhaps it has to do with vertical sync. Maybe the kernel is disabling this for battery sake.
I'm going to look into this, but as I do, let this be the place for anyone to share, complain, agree, or resolve or expound upon this particular issue.

I'm running the latest Sensei and I've not even experienced any lags or stuttering, have you rebooted the phone and are you decrypted?

I don't know much about the specific custom kernels, but i always find the ones that don't use mpdecision or some sort of CPU boost aren't as quick and smooth in my experience

You may be right. I waa using Intelliplug on Sensei. I should try using Sensei again and keep mpdecision enabled. Thats probably what Lollipop's "smootheness API's" were built for.

reset up your phone, cpu speed and governor.scheduler. i always disable mpdecision, so i can run my cpu speed. if you dont disable mpdecision, then you can not set your cpu speed, as mpdecision will change it. no lagginess or choppiness here.
