SetCPU for Root Users 3.1.4

"SetCPU is a powerful tool designed specifically for rooted Android phones and tablets that allows users to change their CPU settings. With compatibility for a wide range of Android devices and ROMs, including popular models like the HTC One series, Samsung Galaxy series, and Nexus devices, SetCPU puts you in control of your device's performance and battery life.

One of the standout features of SetCPU is its ability to automate CPU settings through the use of profiles. These profiles allow users to customize their CPU settings based on specific conditions, such as the running app, phone activity (asleep or charging), battery level, phone temperature, or time of day. Screenshots provided demonstrate how profiles can be set up for optimal performance.

With its comprehensive feature set, SetCPU caters to both Android beginners and enthusiasts. Users can accelerate their processor to unlock the true multitasking potential of their device or reduce CPU speed to conserve battery life.

For certain devices with custom kernels, SetCPU also includes a "voltage control" menu to allow undervolting and further extend battery life. It's important to note that undervolting is only available for certain kernels.

The latest release of SetCPU, version 3.1.0, focuses primarily on bug fixes for known issues. However, the development team has committed to more frequent updates moving forward.

Key updates in version 3.1.0 include:

• Addition of SUPERUSER permission
• Fix for a bug where action bar menu items would occasionally not appear in the profiles menu
• Fix for a bug with reverse appearance of voltage items in some custom kernels
• Addition of an open source licenses menu item in About

SetCPU requires root permissions to modify CPU speed and other settings. Additional permissions, such as read logs, starting at boot, wake lock, write external storage, and read phone state serve specific purposes, such as efficient app condition checking, starting profiles service at boot, preventing the phone from sleeping during stress testing and benchmarking, and reading from and writing to the SD card or internal storage for profile backups.

SetCPU is an invaluable tool for Android users who want to take control of their device's CPU settings and optimize performance and battery life."
