Took me 2 hours to figure out why my phone was lagging out even more than it was prior to root. Slow dialing, lagged texting, lagged screen on, etc. Once I reverted back to "moto_hotplug" governor in SetCPU, everything is perfect.

That's strange my default setting in setcpu was ondemand and all is well
I was experiencing the same issue every time I turned my screen off, except my phone would completely freeze and my only option was pulling the battery. Finally I discovered it was the one profile in SetCpu that was set to clock down and scale to ondemand when the screen was off.
Can anyone confirm that clocking down with profiles works as long as the scaling is ondemand?

I tried that out and it doesn't seem to work even if I leave the scaling as moto_hotplug. It takes a few minutes, but it definitely completely freezes up.

Same here, but others are still reporting that they are underclocking with SetCPU just fine. I'm leaving it alone for now, since I'd rather overclock to be completely honest with you. My battery life isn't a problem at all. 17-21 hours on average unplugged before 10%. Perfectly fine for me.

I can second this issue. I played around with a bunch of different settings and found it was most stable when the max was no lower than 800, but it still froze on occasion even with hotplug selected. Overall it seems SetCPU is not really compatible with the Droid 3.
I switched mine to Ondemand as well and it was quickly obvious the phone didn't like it. Quadrant scores dropped to 1000-1500 range. Setting back to moto_hotplug and Quadrant scores back over 2200 and everything is running smooth.
I learned this the hard way as well. I had it changed to the settings I used on my thunderbolt back then, using ondemand screen off 300 max 300 min. When Handcent received a message, texting would lag, etc and once I changed back to moto_hotplug everything was great again!

Hey guys. This may be a really noob question but I just flashed CoreDroid's Rom into my HTC Inc S and it came with an app called Daemon Controller. From all I've gathered, I know that its something that can be used to adjust the phone's speed battery life etc etc and I was wondering if anyone knows the best setting for it. I just want the battery life to be maximised at the same time, my phone's speed to be maximised, at the same time my notifications to come in normally during sleep time.
THANKS IN ADVANCED PEOPLE!

My ROM is virtuous affinity, and I have it set on
Max screen on 1.07ghz
Min screen on 122mhz
(On demand)
Max screen off 384mhz
min screen off 122mhz
(Conservative)
I have also undervolted by -25
My kernel is unity v10
Please note that different settings work differently for different people. These settings are best for me, battery lasts best with this configuration.
Set it as temp to test it, settings will be cleared on reboot. Then set to perm.
Good luck!
Because both the ViperDHD and Team Venom beta forums are being used by people like us to discuss battery life, kernel tweaking and smoothness, I decided to change this into a universal Viper/Sense discussion thread. ANyone from the family of devices which include DHD, Desire Z, Desire S, IncS, dinc2, mt4g etc are welcome here. ACtually, everyone is.
The discussion was sort of started here

I manage to get a battery life of 14-16 hours.

The only problem is... Battery never reaches 100%.
Any suggestions?

Using tricksterMOD, you can see that governors like interactive and ondemand have their own settings. I have been playing around with these settings, and I am still not finished with what I like yet. However you can use this post as a guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36743252&postcount=3113
With Interactive, you can set your go_highspeed_load to 806 or 768MHz. I have set my min to be 245MHz, max 1200MHz but highspeed load is 806MHz. This results in a kind of even split between the times that 245, 806 and 1200MHz are used. With ondemand or another governor, it generally spikes up to 1200MHz (your max freq) a lot, rather than scaling between the lower freqs. This results in more battery usage because you are staying at a higher freq for longer than needed. Performance is generally the same with interactive and ondemand if configured right.
What do these mean? Basically, with my device now when I touch the screen, it will ramp up to 806MHz. If the process is more than just moving something on the screen and more processing power is needed, it will automatically go to 1200MHz, and when its done and I am still touching the screen, it will go back down to 806MHz. When all I am doing is browsing xda or something, when I scroll it ramps up to 806MHz and when I leave it to read something, it will go down to 245MHz. Then obviously when its sleeping it goes into deep sleep (hopefully)
My battery life suckss.

You can't edit the governor settings with the daemon controller app. That's why we use the trickster mod app to edit things
By governor settings I don't mean switching governors, I mean the actual settings of it.
That stuff should disable itself but its best to remove them to avoid conflicts

Download an app from play store called trickster MOD kernel settings or something
Download busybox installer by stericsson
Install busybox using the app
open trickster, then you can set whatever you like.

HI I am having heavy battery drain
running version from 15/03/2014
I had a maybe 3 minute phone call but still the phone app has eaten up 37% followed by 31% android system
total 72% left after 1h36min
This is a new behavior, up to last week it all worked smooth.
the CPU governor in nofrills CPU is now set to performance since on demand or power saving make the phone very sluggish
Also Video app is not working, just crashes same result in Focal
Any ideas or tips?
Thanks Merlin
You do realize the performance CPU governor makes the CPU constantly run at 1 GHz? This will of course drain your battery.

It's maybe the 1GHz bug. The 1 GHz bug cause the heavy battery drain. Try this, turn off wifi and reboot.
its 1ghz bug if you are using ondemand. but i hope you know performance governor keeps cpu freq. at 1000mhz.

abbyssplug change the processor performance. You can find it in Settings > performance > processor > CPU governor
go tp settings>about phone and press repeatly to build number. you will see "you are a Developer now" text. go back. performance menu must be appear. you can set it there cpu governor.

A fellow user thankfully redirected me to this thread and told me about this governor setting you mentioned above and i must ask you some questions if you dont mind of course
1- What's the difference between Abbysplug and Powersave governor? I have my phone underclocked at 200 at all times and the sluggish speed never seemed to bother me much, so is there a difference between these 2 governors when it's at 200 all the time?
2- Have uninstalled/frozen/disabled any system or built in apps?
3- You leave the mobile data on for 18 and the battery lasts????
Please give me your exact settings, man; i'm desperate. :crying:
LG P990 battery drain when the overclock to 1.4GHz.
I think the kernel I used support overclock to 1.4GHz. But it happens that battery drain so serious that I cannot even charge the phone?
I am using LG android 4.1 rom. Anyone faced similar problem and know how to solve? thanks
Its known that higher OC = higher drain. But the drain shouldnt be so much massive.. Try to check with BBS what OS using your battery..
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app
thx for suggestion, I am now using BBS to check battery state.
But the most weird thing is that, if i stick to no overclock, the battery life has no problem.
BBS result: I found that if i overclock, the mobile cannot deep sleep. Or in fact, if I overclock to 1.3GHz, set as interactive mode. The CPU keeps at 1.3GHz for most time.
So that's your problem.
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=75
Use trickster mod app and set min/high frequencies and on governor control setting choose on over which load your cpu will go on high/max frequencies....

I guess i find the problem.
The media server is draining the battery.
As far as I did not listen to music, it is ok.
But if I use EsExploer or playerpro to play a music for an hour. The BetterBatteryState showed that the CPU freq keeps at 1GHz for an hour.
What can I do to solve the problem? I googled a lot, including "repair" all music on sdcard, etc, many so called solutions did not solve the problem. thanks
