Root set cpu?

Now that I've updated to froyo and am running the next beast theme by Fab I have a question......I'm using lv 125-1200 MHz p3 kernel... my set CPU CPU temp is getting stuck.... anyone else have these issues? I didn't have any issues until I forced set CPU to my SD card....I have since put it back on my phone and temp still stuck... is this a kernel issue or any ideas? Thanks for the help
 
It appears to be an issue with all froyo roms/kernals...I have had the problem on the couple I have tried and from what I've found is that it seems to be across the board with a few people saying it works or they got it to work but mostly not working at this time...Phil

Auto refresh is checked...... is there another way to check CPU temp without set CPU? Glad its not just me..... I just don't to run this thing to the Max and mess it up....like I said I wasn't having any problems till I pushed it to the SD card.... oh well may as well uninstall until a kernel works with it....
 
considering the fact that setcpu adjusts system settings it may be best to keep that on internal storage. its not a very big app anyways. its under 300k so lest than 1/3 of a MB.

Just moved it back and now it doesn't show up in the widgets menu at all. :(
 
It also seems that any apps that are on the SD card have widget issues. So any app you use that is dependent on widgets should stay on the internal memory.
 
Soooo Not True. I am running ONIX 1.2.5 and I actually can see my CPU temp logged. The only problem is I switched to Kangerade and it was no longer there, so I did a backup/restore and still have it!

Someone needs to find out what Onix Concepts did to get it working!!!
 
He didn't do anything with Onix. You're seeing battery temp but its just being incorrectly listed as CPU temp. The kernel determines whether you get a CPU temp reading, not the ROM. So unless you have a special kernel no one else is using you're seeing battery temps like the rest of us. This is all assuming you're running a Froyo ROM. I'm not familiar with Onix.

NOPE ... not the battery temp. I have two DIFFERENT temp readings! Right now my Battery temp is 27C (80.6F) and OMAP3 is 42C(107.6F). Now unless I am missing something, it works. Further... when I switched ROMs and looked at SetCPU SysInfo, there wasn't even a OMAP3 there.

Like I said, I have CPU temp.

No you don't...

It is a mis-read, sorry but it is not currently possible to read the CPU temps on any Froyo ROM... The only way to read the CPU temp is to have the file written into the kernel and until the source is released none of the kernels will get the file.

I had the exact same readings on the Onix ROM as well, keep checking that CPU temp, because it will never change it is a mis-read and is not a true CPU temp read.
 
Not trying to start any fires here, but I too am getting two different temp readings for battery and CPU. I'm using one of P3's kernels and running FroYo.

It has gotten stuck at -40C/-40F for the CPU reading a couple of times, but a reboot fixed it. The temp does change, so I know it's not a constant reading. I know the original P3 kernel I had didn't even have the option to set the profile using CPU temp. Something is recording different temps.

Edit: I stand corrected. It stays at 28C. I just played a Flash game to get the temp up and I could feel the difference in temp, but the CPU reading is still the same. I must've been seeing a different temp when it was still set to battery temp. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Double edit: I don't know what caused it, but my CPU sensor readings seem to be working again. It got as high as 120+F (I was in the desert), and now it's reading at 77F. A few mins ago I was running Pandora and it was somewhere near 90+F. Nothing changed in my setup, but it appears to be working again. I say "appears" because it was my understanding these kernels cannot report CPU temps, but something is allowing the readout to change.
