Of course it can go up to those values. But Samsung has down clocked the frequency with purpose. And they always do. Don't worry though. Soon you will have a kernel which would allow you to over clock the cores.

Correct. Although I wouldn't OC, it already gets quite hot under full load, this device allows you to use all 8 cores at once.

You also wouldn't notice any difference from 200mhz anyway, so don't worry haha

[Q] SETCPU HD2 overclock

hi guyz, i have a little question for you
does someone have an hd2 with android witch is overclocked to over 1ghz? 1.5ghz too? and, is it a warried operation or cpu has a low overhead in that situation?
3rd and last question, if i put my hd2 in 1.5ghz mode, and force a bench test, may i broke my hd2 with going upper than cpu Tjunction or there's a system protection witch shuts down all the hardware else the cpu is too close to Tjunction? (like normally pc cpu)
i don't know if snapdragon has system protection, so, i don't want to try to fuse my hd2 (it's my main phone)
and, for users who whant to know, yep, i'm using wp7 because it's smoother than android, but, if i try to use android with that overlock, may it can be smooth like wp7, maybe
and, please, don't say that android is smooth, because it has some micro freeze in the continuity of the animation, and i hate that
thank you for your answers

You can set your clock to max, but make a profile to downclock your cpu speed to ~500 MHZ when it heats up.

oh, you could make a profile with downlcloking when cpu goes to a specific temperature?
nice, what's the tjunction of snapdragon? is 50°C too hight?
not sure, to be honest, I don't overclock my device. too scared to do so :/
but when I did overclock it I set the temperature to 41-42 Celsius.
you can tell that I got a lot of high temp warnings, safe is better than sorry.

no, not using it, uninstalled it, because it makes my phone randomly reboot + it can brick your phone (little chance for that) but me no like overheating

You need a kernel that allows overclocking

different builds use different kernels, and each support different max CPU speeds. If the kernel supports overclocking, the developer usually mentions than in the first post. Note that Some kernels/builds do not support any kind of overclocking, so the max CPU speed would be ~988 MHz

[Q] Performance Profiles

Moin,
Is there any app that provides performance profiles like CPU-, GPU-clock speed etc? My old tf300 came with build in options for that :crying:
Thank you

I mean something like a widget with Performance presets (yeah i should have said that ) so you can easily switch between them... for example
Code:
preset 1: CPU 1,5GHz to 1 GHz, GPU 400 MHz
preset 2: CPU 1 GHz to 380 MHz, GPU 200 MHz
etc.
franco.Kernel updater offers power modi based on which app you are currently running. It's not exactly what you were looking for, but I think this functionallity goes even further.
Also I think (I haven't used it in ~2 years) setCPU does offer some functionallity like this
Now that I understand the question: Is this even possible when we're talking stock/unrooted? (Just assuming, because OP asked for an app, not ROM)

No. Such a modification would need root access.
Thanks a lot! I will try SetCPU, because i don't want to manage the clockspeed for all of my apps in franco.updater

[Discussion/Q&A] Documentation on cpu governors?

I decided to make my own cpu governor, are there any tips, documentation, etc that the android community can help me with? I cannot seem to pinpoint the actual place where the governor scales the frequency up/down.

Not governor parameters, making a governor from scratch
Read Documentation/cpu-freq/governors.txt, near the end it mentions the required functions.

overclocking, modifying the kernel

I want to learn how I can modify kernel to adjust clock speeds. wt88047 redmi 2 . If anyone can detail the steps it would be great

Yep, except GPU overclock by me and Ashish94, the true 620mhz and the TurboClock 465T increase ~35% the gaming performance, games like asphalt 8 will run at 8 or 9 fps higher with the Overclock

i'd suggest you to try lateautumn kernel, it boosts your CPU freq to 1.8ghz and it seems like it worked for me, battery drained so fast tho...

Look, I'm tired from explaining that CPU overcloks are fake, just freaking search about snapdragon 410, the processor is LOCKED, PLL overclock is not possible without external source file help, only Moto g3 osprey have this file, when somebody port's that file to our source, I will be wrong
Also if you don't even know how to overclock a device, how can you say that I'm wrong?

At that time I din't know anything about this phone, becouse I just had buyed it, then I started spending 8hrs in the computer to study kernels, redmi 2, and all related to source, android, etc. Then I started making overclocks, and after 2 weeks of testing I completed my results and overclock was fake.
It's like school or college, you need to study to understand
Which ROM is best to be used with late autumn kernel. When I install late autumn kernel on any ROM ,the camera stops working.

Sounds like a stage I'm currently going through, are there any recommended resources for learning?
The main direction is to reverse the kernel code for the purpose of changing system settings

perfd

So... Anyone out there played with /vendor/etc/perf-profile*.conf yet?
It appears we have 8 perfd profiles that something selects... And overrides any other CPU choices while perfd is enabled...
Thoughts?

I don't think I've ever bumped into the thermal.config...
I think perfd get a hold of the processor long before the thermal engine fires up

I think it uses both.
Definitely the thermal-engine.conf for heat throttling.
But the perf-profile is probably used and from what I can tell scaling up/down based on demand.
I modified them to take advantage of the overclock in my ElementalX kernel and tweaks thermal-engine.conf.
I now see the CPU go into the overclock frequencies more often. I hadn't even bothered looking in those files.
Great Find!!!!

There are some target loads. There are some ramp times.
If you are running ElementalX and are over clocked. Just adjust the frequencies to get the performance.
If you research thermal-engine.conf it will help understand these files.
Anyone out there know an 835 that has perfd that we could compare profiles?
I can't leave stuff alone...
