SetCPU Settings on BAMF 1.5 (Optimal Battery Life)

[DirtMcGirt]

Can you all post up what your settings are on setcpu if running rooted bamf? Also, I'm running BAMF 1.5 currently and I notice my max goes up to 1497 mhz.

That said, I'd like to have optimal battery life and I read through some other threads but couldn't really nail down what's best. What are your settings?

I've got the same question since I rooted a couple nights ago and installed BAMF last night. I have mine set to "ondemand" but am unfamiliar with the other possible settings. I'm sure someone will respond with detailed explanations for each of these other settings and experiences.

Running BAMF 1.5 remix, Desense script with Adrynalyne's 4.2.2 Kernel
1036 Max 245 Min Smartass governor
Profiles are 1497 max 245 min-charging only
Battery less than 15% 960 max 245 min

These settings can get me around 2 plus days with light medium usage and 1 to 1.5 days with heavy usage. Extended 2750 battery. The smartass governor basically does the thinking for you when screen is off. There is a more detailed list in this forum for the others but I mainly use Smartass now. No need for me to overclock during regular usage since this phone is pretty fast for me anyway.

I use LeanKernel v1.11 Normal with my BAMF 1.5R rom.

Here are the profiles I use:
Main - Max: 1024 Mhz, Min: 768 Mhz, Scaling: InteractiveX
Screen Off - Max: 768 Mhz, Min: 245 Mhz, Scaling: Smartass

Using the stock battery I can go 16 hours with moderate usage (couple handful of texts, facebook updates two or three times, read emails, play a game fore 10 minutes or so) and still have more than 50% of the battery remaining. Screen brightness is set to auto, accounts sync manually or as infrequent as possible, and I stay on WiFi as much as possible (don't bother turning it off when i'm not in range though).

All phones are different so there's really no way to tell what settings your phone will like without doing some tests. Just make a backup and then try some different settings and see if your phone still works correctly.
