Darn people got there already! Was going to say I just used setCPU to change the govenor to ondemand...

Stephen, what other tweaks are there in that file - there must be a reason the govenor is not getting changed this time?

EDIT

Sorry Stephen didn't see that last post! Will it be a full update again or just a few files we can change...don't really want to wipe again just yet...

install setcpu from xda devs and set it to on demand and your battery will improve

as a temp. measure i did, however it should do this natively. i have confidence stephen will figure out the cause and post a fix.

edit: too late lol

the youtube app plays with rotation itself so wouldln surprise me if it screwed things up - will probly make a fixed update in next few days

anyone with battery issues please download tempcpuv2 from market and add widget to desktoop and watch the cpu speed see if it scales back from 998

It is not Steve... Loading CPU from 8% to 70% and back to 10% freq always on 998...

@Stephen only meant it as a temp measure. hadn't seen the previous setcpu response or your reply till after I posted :P

overocking? sounds like someones had some kernel progress.

lol note i said WHEN i get overclocking worked out lol. i can underclock and add extra cpu speeds but not get it to over clock yet (planning to add 122mhz, and a few steps between the other clock speeds cpu does - should help battery by not just clocking all the way up to 998 for everything

The update-cpu.zip how does that install fella? Is that through recovery by renaming it or just extract it and overwrite files in Root Explorer? Cheers

recovery or extract and copy the file in system/etc over the current one on ya device,

tried installing the changes zip and it reported an error in the zip, had to reflash 1.1. flashed 1.1.1. cpu scaling, auto rotate seems to work. will see if this helps battery any. thanks!

so far with latest updates battery seems better... scaling seems to be OK and autorotate works haven't used Youtube yet though.

Thanks for fixing this so fast!

Only thing now is waiting to see what the official update brings that you can 'borrow' and of course that CM6 port...he he

Wouldn't it be nice if Dell had the Gingerbread SDK early and the official update was actually 2.3/3.0...I can dream!

cpu scales fine now probably it will improve batery life too, will do some testin thx for everything Steve

Things are looking great now, just some minor issue, youtube still break auto rotation, even after going setting>display>auto rotate screen and adjust the setting. The only way is to reboot

Stephen, It's a great job :D

Yes, that would be a dream. :P Official Dell update coming soon is 2.2, however. Front camera is fixed, UI is no longer heavily skinned as in 1.6, just mostly stock 2.2 with some new widgets. And yes, very, very fast. :D

They've done a very nice job, IMHO.

Sorry, have you seen the official Dell v2.2? how fast is very, very fast compared with Stephen's Froyo? I'm already very happy with the speed and stability of Stephen's Froyo release v1.0 :D

Cheers

Sounds like this was based on hands-on experience? Or a video...

Care to share either way? :D

Cool glad official 2.2 not a complete balls up!

Sounds like it's very close...if only some kind soul would upload it somewhere! Damn people and their integrity!

Oh the other hand, this latest version is still rockin'

Been off charger for > 1 hr and some light use and still at 100% battery without airplane mode - that's the best I've had so far!

Thanks Steve, just updated to 1.1.1.

So I should uninstall setCPU now?

Does anyone know of an attractive widget to display CPU, Ram, SD card, Temp, ect. specs?
