Hi!
I was wondering on which speeds people have their Wizards running? I know there are a lot of people using OMAPclock so if you could enter your values into the poll it would be much appreciated. Also with this programm BAtti http://pda.jasnapaka.com/batti/ you can check the temperature of your battery! Wich temp. is acceptabel (is there any relation to the tmp of your processor?
My Wizard is running @ 264 Mhz and in rest, battery tmp. is 28.0c
195mhz
264 solid as a rock
technically....
the poll didn't let me pop my answer in (i run at 228 or 240, both of which are excluded).
i just overclocked to 240 using OMAPclock..
anyway to make sure it really is at 240 though? The system information app in WM5 still says it's 195.. although i think that's just a label.. not a actual clock measure..
You can use TCPMP with a given file to benchmark - just benchmark before and after overclocking
i like to run it on 240mhz but whats with the batt life?
I run at 228,
mine resets sometimes at 240
I got my MDA Vario just for a few weeks...it is a whole lot faster then my previous SonyEricsson P900, so for now I just run at at default speed
Before ROM update = 240mhz consistantly
After ROM update = standard 180mhz.
I run at 216, but it resets it's self at random times.
I've been running my Qtek 9100 at 204 MHz since Sunday with no ill effects. Battery life seems not to have been affected significantly. Still running the original ROM -- I might try an upgrade in a week or two after I've become more familiar with the unit.
264 24/7. no resets
overclocked to 240 with out rest or any problems
Because I use push-mail (so GPRS is on, all the time), and BT is also turned on 24/7, the battery drain is significant. I noticed a major increase in power consumption when I overclocked the CPU. Normally this CPU is smart enough to clock-down when not being used. When using the overclock program, this intelligence is switched off (or doesn't function anymore), resulting (in my specific situation), in a battery life of about 12 hours. When I run the CPU at default speed, it easily manages to live for 24-36 hours without craving for an outlet socket
264mhz on omap but it tells me 250mhz on tcpmpm.
(i'm posting this using my wizard, why is it putting two spaces?)
With the latest ROM I find the standard speed is adequately fast now, so I run mine at standard speed but increase to 240 when using skype to get rid of the choppy sound, reverting to standard when I close skype.
( I use a modified shortcut for Skype which automatically launches OmapClock and increases the speed when I start Skype and reverts to standard speed when I close skype).

How do did you create such a shortcut? I would like to overclock only when using TomTom.
I have got my Vario on 240 Mhz now. I have flashed it with the new Qtek rom (release 24 march 2006).
But even after installing memmaid, I can't keep it at 240 Mhz after waking up. It will be set back to 180 Mhz
I did make a new Event in Memmaid after waking up, but that doesn't work.
Or could it be because I did not register Memmaid yet?
1-2tje -
Extract the attached file to a new directory on your device called 'omap'.
In File explorer you should see the omapclock.lnk with a tomtom icon, and when you launch it it should start tomtom.
If not, then open the omapclock.lnk in 'Notes' and alter the location and/or name of the tomtom executeable.
To check the speeds, launch omapclock.exe before launching the shortcut and see what the speed is. Close omapclock.exe then launch the shortcut. While tomtom is running open omapclock.exe again and check the speed. Close tomtom and after 10 seconds check the speed again - it should be back to normal.

Here:-
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=7325
Specifically says support for '......i-Mate JasJar, O2 XDA Exec, Qtek 9000...'
Just tested the trial version and it looks like its OK this time without screen flickering and hanging.

From that link you only can download version 2.92..!! for 2.93 download from here http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?programId=45&productId=53564
Not working
In my JJ is not working. ROM 1.13.82 from O2.
Ciao
RE
Nope, I got v2.93 from Pocketgear otherwise my system would have flicker and hang which happened for v2.92
Well, trial just expired
Doesn't work at all for me.. Choose cpu speed 624 press ok.. System hangs completely..
Piece of ...
Then I wont try it yet... I had a fit with the first version and my heartbeat went 100x than normal.. haha..
Plus, I've practiced the art of patience. I just wait for the "???" to turn into battery percentage in my today screen (Resco TOday plug in) before clicking the screen. It just takes 10 seconds or so.. better than forcing my device to be faster than it should be..
Works fine with me at 624 mhz.
What is the max speed you have been able to achieve?
Qtek 9000 XCPUscalar working at 624MHz
Seems to be working @ 624MHz, but with Auto Scale selected the speed does not seem to adjust automatically. Just sits there at 624MHz with range of CPU%ages between 32% @ 45% with only Activesync and no other programs running.
Also there seems to be only one 'speed settings' page which only allows scaling up to 624MHz not the 728MHz referred to as being supported. No sign of the 4 tabbed pages (Advanced; Meters and About pages missing) shown on the immiersoft website. This could however be due to running OzVGA.Therefor there seems to be no VGA support either.
Was working @ 624MHz
Further update.
System now hung.
When trying to check 'programs in use' the system just hangs.
Uninstall coming up.
Works like a beauty for me.
Use Advanced speed Settings:
104 mhz 25%
208 mhz 50%
312 mhz 75%
624 mhz >75%
I do not have the courage to try settings fater than 624 mhz. (you need to enable show frequencies above 624 mhz. to do that).
There is a bit of flickering screen flickering filter does not do much).
Main Memory or Stoage Card?
Have you installed to Main Memory, or to Storage Card?
Do not install to Storage Card.
Use Device Memory (same for Tweak2k2).
Now Working, but still no additional tabs
Thanks
Installed now to Main Memory.
Auto Scaling now seems to work, including up to 728MHz.
This seems to have worked and despite short usage time looks more stable than when on Storage Card.
Still only one 'speed settings' tab with no options to adjust thresholds etc.
I assume this must be due to a VGA support problem because the speed settings screen is definately qvga format and not VGA
You have to click on Advanced and there you will get Advanced Speed Settings Iif we are talking about the same thing).

Do you confirm 728 mhz works fine?
There is no 'advanced' button/menu item to select
Thanks for the advice, but as I said in my earlier post, there is only one "speed settings" page.
The only other items are the File; Options and Device menu's.
Swivel the screen around (in "portrait mode" and you should be able to see at the bottom of it Speed Advanced Meters and About (or set resolution to the default one).
OK Sorted
Great
If I exit OzVGA then the tabbed pages appear.
Thanks for your help.
I can see all the advanced speed settings on mine but it won't even run at 663 never mind any higher lol. Just a blank white screen unfortunately.
I love OC'ing my wizard as its much quicker and now i can playback large video and FLAC audio files streamed over my wireless network. Opera does not freeze so often. Huge thanks to the person made omapclock.
However i am confused as to what speed my wizard is really running at. Omapclock reckons its 252, TCPMP thinks its 232 and 'system information' always says 185, although i guess does not check the actual current speed and just reports the default.
So which is correct?

Neither is correct both have the multiplier wrong.(omapclock multiplier is 12 and real speed multiplier is 13) True reading is given bt battery status plugin or sktools device info.
Eg - omapclock speed of 240Mhz equates to a true speed of 260Mhz so your true speed will be 273Mhz :wink:
Hi Guys,
Pretty impressed with this site, the dedication and commitment everyone here has.
Just thought to pick minds....
Which is better of the 2 clocking apps : OMAP (of which I could only find ver 0.2) or BatteryMeter , gives the best overall performance vis installation file size and continous use ?
Your thoughts please
AD10
I think they are the same thing, BatteryMeter provides the nice user friendlier interface that invoke OMAP (or you mean OmapClock?). For small size, OMAP is a command line simple tweak etc, but maybe difficult to set up, esp if you want it to be still around after suspending your phone. So, probably for start, try the Bmeter.
Don't you mean BatteryStatus instead of BatteryMeter?
Anyway, BatteryStatus, despite the name, has also overclocking features and has the advantage that the settings remains if you perform a reset. As far as I know, Omapclock does not.

Thanks guys,
Yes I meant BatteryStatus and OMAPClock.
I have tried both, and stuck to BatteryStatus - offers more information and seems to be constantly supported by Kai.
OmapClock and batteryStatus read different clocks
I used OMAPCLOCK to set the clock to 208 MHZ, however batterystaus, even not using its overclock function reads it as 221 MHZ instead.
Which one to trust???
Tks
I used OMAP for a while, but I was able to overclock max 246, now I use batterystatus and I OC to 286 without any problem. (Also BS has many more features over OMAP)
I looked in my settings and saw my processor is a 195MHZ processor I have tried to OC it to around 204 to 216 and it seems to run fine. I can get it to stay permanently.
But my question: Is my default speed 180MHZ that is shown in OmapClock or what?
If I decide to uninstall OmapClock what to I set the clock to or will the system take care of that for me.
there's been a lot of discussion regarding how accurate omapclock and batterystatus programs are, i think bs is accurate and omapclock overestimates (rough example if omapclock says 200, you device is actually 180)
uninstalling will mean that the os is controlling the speed and at default
Hi everybody,
are there any experiences with Charmer and overclocking? I'd like to speed up my PDA, especially when using CPU-intensive programs such as iGo/TomTom (GPS navigation). Before installing a bunch of probably useless utilities, I just want to check whether anybody is overclocking his device.
Which programs do you use (e.g. omapscaler) and are does this lead to any noticeable changes?
Using batterystatus here which includes OMAP and CPUScaler.
I have to say i am finding some difficiulties linked to the fact that the screen often misalign and the overclocking seems to be having problem with spb backup (it makes the device freeze).
The setting i have are
Min 143Mhz
Org. 195Mhz
Max 247Mhz
I am also using the "Add short time boost" functionality at 273Mhz.
For CPU% thresold i stick with teh program default values.
Apart from this the speed is great and allow me to run a bunch of Touch application designed for more powerful/recent telephones wihtout much problems.
P.S. tomtom doesn't need overclocking, it is not a CPUI intensive application adnd runs great with factory clocking.
Thanks, I'll give batterystatus a try.
CPUScaler
CPUScaler, the best I ever used.
regards
Batterystatus is currently the best overclocking program for OMAP processors. You can easily overclock it to 273, some models can take even 286 and 299.
