Can someone post the values?
I used SetCPU to change them to something different and I don't remember what the stock/original values were.
Any help is appreciated!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Interactive, CFQ, 1958 (max), 300 (min)
These were the settings my phone was on before I installed SetCPU.
Also, I'm guessing the phone uses powersave governor and throttles down freq. when power saving mode is enabled. Don't know settings for that. I'm sure someone knowledgeable will chime in.

Whatever you do don't use "power save"
Phone won't wake in that mode.

I just set it as 100-1200 interactive. Then set a profile when the screens off 100-600 conservative.
As long as the profile is set from 200mhz - (200-1200mhz) the phone won't shut off and you won't have to remove the battery I had this issue on my phone....

That's because you had it set on "ondemand" I had the same exact issue for a long time before I figured out that was the problem. It has something to do with the kernel doesn't support it right with setcpu or something. I read it somewhere on this forum. I've had it set at 100 min for the last 3-4 weeks and it's never not turned on (as long as it ISN'T set for ondemand).
I'll bump this thread to ask a question.
Around the time I installed SetCPU, I noticed a HUGE drop in battery life. To be honest, I'm not sure if SetCPU is the problem, or if I changed something else on the phone and that's the source of my problem. Anyone know anything that I could have changed unknowingly that caused my battery life to suck so hard.
Don't use set cpu if you can avoid it. Sre sets you to 1.2 ghz and unhelpful supplies a script if you are comfortable doing that.
Limiting speed with set cpu had little positive influence. As long as the scalling is working the cpu should idle with the screen off any how. The only situation I would change the clock is during an overheat condition but I'm running without set cpu all together.
If I'm interpreting unhelpful right the next kernel will make use of user space in set cpu and allow many new things including under voltage to save battery and the creation of custom clocks not written into the kernel so you aren't bound to his preferences.

Where can you do that at? Is that where you make your own cpu speeds?
Use NSTools in any ICS ROM with Icy Glitch kernel.

Can someone explain to me exactly what each scaling option does while using setcpu?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
In a nutshell, it's a setting for how and when your CPU will be sped up or down, depending on what it's doing. For example, the conservative scaling, it tends to keep the speeds down more of them while the opposite is true for performance. The others are tweaked, in-between settings. On-demand and interactive are the best in my experience
so I've been overclocking at 748800mhz, min and max, on the screen on profile which is perfectly stable. I tried overclocking at 768000mhz, min and max, and got random reboots approximately every 5 minutes. so, if I set the max to 768000 and the min to 748800, will it be stable?

Should be, what is your scaling set to? Try it with smartass or interactive.
it was set to performance, but ill try it on interactive!

Performance will keep it at the maximum all the time. If your phone cant handle the speed, it will freeze/boot loop until you change it. Try interactive and make a profile for when you plug your charger in, it drops down to 691.
What kind of battery life are you getting when you leave your cpu overclocked with both the min/max like that?
I typically do 245/710 for screen on but get 20-30hrs of battery life, is the battery hit not that much or are you just around a charger enough that you don't need to worry about it?

no. if your phone reboots at 768 it just can't handle the frequency. You should try clocking your min down a bit, like to 352 min screen on, it should help battery a bit and I doubt you'll notice a difference in performance. Also, if you apply the smartass governor it will do a few things your profiles do, so you won't need as many profiles. In the smartass gov, the max freq screen off is 352, and the min freq screen on is 518, so all you would need to set is a general profile like 245 min and 748 max, then the smartass gov will do the rest for you

It should be showing up in your governor settings. Should be the 2nd from the top (Right under Interactive)

I wouldn't worry about the website, just keep using that forum.
Is it better to just have one profile (like 710 max, 245 min) rather than two profiles, one for screen-on (528-710) and one for screen-off (245-352)? Also, is it better to use the ondemand governor rather than interactive or smartass?

I don't see smartass either. I'm running both the CMD kernel and rom. Is there a way to fix this?
The kexec has pre-overclocked the CPU to 1.2GHz, and the old method to adjust the overclock options became invaild.
Is there any way to adjust the options? Like the frequence and voltage, even to overclock the GPU.

You need a kernel (or module) built with these options allowed. Currently you can only drop down the speed of the CPU. Once things are stabilized, I'm sure we will see overclocking, voltage changes, GPU overclock, etc.

You can't. Your cpu is programed stock to be 1.2 GHz but Moto underclocked it for "stock Droid 3" speeds.

I cant underclock mine, anyone here suceeded underclocking their device?? Im trying to make my device 1000mhz max 200 mhz min when screen on , 600 mhz max 200 mhz min when screen off but how low i set my max freuqency it stills stays on 1000 mhz. I know power saving thing can allow u to underclock but the max frequency was only 800 mhz.

Try an app called on google play one power guard it works for me. Allows you to set your own custom frequencies.

use setCPU or nofrills
Doesnt work

Freeze the TwDVFS package in Titanium Backup, then try again. You will lose power saving mode this way, but you will gain control over CPU frequency.
Freezing the package doesnt have any effect for me. Using SETCPU, have general setting 1000/200 with governor conservative, scheduler noop, applying at boot and it works fine, have a great performance and a really good battery live but profiles i create wont be applied. Wanted to create a profile with lower frequencies at a battery level under/equal a value of 20% but no success for me. Tried with all governers incl. the powersave - but nothing changes. Of course rooted, with OXXAMB2 fw and stock kernel...

Thank you for the feedback, I'm actually surprised. I haven't tested freezing TwDVFS but its name and kmsg seemed to point out that it was in charge of breaking CPU profiles.
