I don't think you've understand anything on how cpu management is done in Android.

First, putting your screen off in performance is dumb because the performance governor only use the fastest clock which means that you for will never go to 125 MHz thus using more battery.

Second, your screen on settings should have a bigger range than between 600-800. Even if the screen is on that doesn't mean that you need 600Mhz to do the task you're doing.

I'd advise not to follow these instructions...

Wait... you got 15h out of a charged battery?

That's really awful!

I pick my phone up in the morning with 100% battery power. I have JuiceDefender installed. I use my phone for THREE days, and in the evening of the third day I have got round 10% battery left. (Enough for a call or a quick internet session!). If you really only get 15 hrs, I would consider replacing your battery with a newer one. Its battery dump to overclock your CPU while charging. This gives you... wait... nothing. Have a nice day :-)

i set my screen on speed 200-1200 (200 overclock), with these profiles: when charging 100-400, screen off 100-400, battery below 30% 100-400. i just installed this app a few minutes ago, so hopefully this extends my battery life noticeably.

@stevegaron1 i almost died when he said he had it on performance because he wanted it to be at 250MHz as soon as he turns the screen ON.

hi i have a question for you ... btw great movie!

i have setspu and my question is why i cant move the mhz to like 255 or 285 like u do ... i can only do 200 , 400 , 800 , 1000 why is that ? why i can only use round no# ?

btw i have a samsung vibrant rooted , dont have a kernel or whatever it is ....

hope u can help me ... thank you :)

performance means it's alway the max, so not between the two.. you should do power save or something, it will be back to a nice speed fast enough..
