hello
i know only 2 apps
pocket hack master v4
ti omap overlock
thanks

Read the Battery Status Thread.
Pocket hack master will allow you to set speeds per application so it only overclocks when needed. it will also find the safest speeds and change speeds as processor load changes. Fantastic program in so many ways.

Has any one got a link for a freeware program to do throtterling of the CPU as in not always running at 400Mhz? I've seen a few more complex ones that you have to pay for but they do all sorts of things? I am thinking of giving it a go and the whole point of Intel developing the XScale chip is because it's able to Scale down the speed (Hense the name) this saves a lot of battery life apparently...
Any ideas?
Downclock your processor will not take a lot saving your battery life (about 10%).
Use XCPUScalar for your Xscale cpu,it let you choose 100-200-300-400-472 Mhz mode.

thanks for the reply unapproachable2kx I will take a look into that program... Great work...
Hear is a direct link for any one that would like to look it up as well
http://www.immiersoft.com/
does the program expire at all? has any one done any testing of just very basic PDA work as in address lookup, phone number lookup and that sorta stuff and seen how much extra battery like they can get out of there PDA?
Is there any programs that can automaticly scale the speed of the CPU acording to CPU load that is freeware? Will Microsoft be implamenting CPU scaling in the Second Edition of there 2003 OS? still can't belive that its not a built in feature if the CPU's where designed to scale acordingly...
Does no one else know of any others that can scale the CPU speed according to usage? ass well as the software being freeware?
The Xscaler prog is not free.

Thanks for the link xda-rocks, Have you had any trouble using this software on the XDA II, I see they give you a bit of babble about you may have to do hard resets and stuff like that.... Have you had any problems as yet... I have never used any CPU throterling software and am just wanting to play around with it a bit..
Do you notice a extended battery life if you use this software at all?
No probs so far, but haven't really had time to try it - only just installed myself.
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

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)
but still showing 201mhz as cpu speed under device setting menu/info. is the normal? is there a benchmarking software i can use?

yes:
SKtools - the best tweaking and .... Tool.
And the info only shows the general cpu speed - not the real.
ANd if you overclock with batterystatus - you see it in the todayplugin.
BTW - you can amke a benchmark with TCPMP (Mediaplayer) - but it is allways a little lower than the real speed.
I would suggest using batterstatus over sktools. Me and someone else had problems with that phone and the herald. Speaking for myself the problem occured after executing a cleanup through sktoolz.
HOW CAN I SPEED UP PROCESSING SPEED AND HOW CAN I DELETE UN NECESSARY FILES FROM WINDOWS DIRECTORY WHICH ARE NOT USEBLE BY ME

Overclocking
Also, be conservative when you are first using it.....make sure you don't overclock over 260 mhz or underclock below 143 mhz...I believe some members have reported instability/problems with their wizards when they did not stay within these parameters.
Make sure you read the developers thread and webpage concerning batterystatus....it will explain some of the settings in batterystatus.

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.
