I suppose you run 520Mhz and downclock the memory speed.
Try run it on 470Mhz with original memory clk.

I used XCPUScalar 2004 v2.87 to overclock my MDA.

I am not sure what kind of processor MDA compact has,PXA 263?
If yes,you can use the Mamaich's Overclock utility or use Hack Master.

It's PXA272

Use hackmaster and pay attention to memory multiplier.
Good luck!

Results seem to indicate hardly any noticible difference so it isn't worth it surely?

That's why I've made this test.
The question is: Does this program do anything?

hmm... what settings should I use?

I was using XCPUScaler and felt the same way (like I didnt realy notice any difference). Then I switched to Pocket Hack master and I think it made a difference in performance even just running it at 415. I would love to see the results of this test using PHM.

OK...
I used Pocket Hack Master 2005 v3.10.007 (
) and now... I can see the difference. 8)

in fact it does not.. :!:
I have used XCPscaler and it worked, it said 520MHz just like the previous photo but when I tried Beta-Player to benchmark the device.... it said 416 MHz..
and when I used lower speeds.. Beta-player and the XCPUScalar gave the same result...
so I could only down-clock my device, but I couldn't overclock it...

sweet dude, I knew hackmaster made a diff. WOW
Hey "SomeOne" did a good job. Thanks anton tomov :lol:

I'm not getting tired to mention that your battery drain increases dramatically with PHM, even when underclocking! This is due to the non existing voltage control of the processor when using PHM.
I prefer longer use over some more speed when playing games - but that's to everyone himself. Normal applications don't benefit a bit from the faster CPU!

you can choose which applications should use 520MHz
other ones will have only 416MHz

PHM even supports scaling, meaning that it uses a slower clock than normal when not busy and a higher clock when busy. Still, with pure underclocking or using this scaling, your battery drain will significantly be higher than without using PHM. As i said, this is due the non existing capability of PHM to dynamically regulate the voltage of the CPU. If the clock is not set by a software, the CPU automatically reduces the voltage when not in use. This reduces the battery drain significantly (for me, this meant about one day longer usage of my magician).
That is the reason why I don't recommend using PHM, even though everyone can do what he wants. Maybe other softwares are capable of doing this but i doubt it!

The result should made XCPU scaler ashame for showing a faked clock speed. (actually, it start faking this since version 2.85d)

I've installed PHM and my Magician is now running at 520MHz. Does anyone have any bad experiences overclocking theirs?

Desire HD and SetCPU

Is there anyway to make setcpu works with my desire hd?
Visionary is working perfectly but I think perflock is blocking the speeds control. If I try to stop it with the menu command it gives me an error message.
Please If you find any solution post it... I'd like to save some Battery limiting the cpu frequencies

Since the update setcpu works perfectly with visionary. We DHD users can now disable perflock and control cpu frequency. Life is good.
If you set visionary to root your DHD on boot then you don't have any issues with things being "temporary". Well technically they are but you won't notice.

Have all installed on mine but i cant find a way to go above stock speed, is there a way to do this ?

What cpu frequency's are you setting in place to gain 30% more battery life?

Hi.
To use setcpu on the desire hd you should first root it with Visionary (set it to run on boot). Then you can dowload the app and launch it. When it has the root permission you should press the menu button on the main screen and use PERFLOCK disable. (set it ti run on boot too).
When perflock is disable setcpu take control of the clock speed.
My settings are:
When screen is off, speed is set to 245min-245max. this will grant you lot of spare juice from battery, only con is the 3 or 4 second lag when you turn the screen on. It needs some moments to put speed back to 1024. Not big deal if you get use to it.
Then when battery is under 50% I set it to 245min-768max. this will reduce the power need of the beast of a little 10%, means like 1,5h more standby time.
When power is under 20% I reduce the speed again to 245min-368max. In this config the phone react like my oldtime beloved hero...
I do not use the htc battery saving.
Hope it helps!

You can not Overclock the stock Kernel.

Thank you for the post Endr1, quite interesting.

I can use SetCPU, I can manage profiles, but I cannot OC the device beyond the 1024 MHz

I have tried several CPU frequencies with SetCPU (very nice and simple tool, love it!) and noticed that overclocking the Desire HD to 1459MHz seems to be ideal. With higher OC speeds I do not get better performance (if I may believe Quandrant standard benchmarking tool).
I have LordMod kernel + CoreDroid v9.2 running.
Here you can see benchmark before OC

[Q] Anyone uses SETCPU with GT540?

Hi
Does anyone use SETCPU app with GT540? Does it make any improvements?
Or how to use it with our phones?
Thanks

Hi,
take a look at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=871491
You need to install this kernel for some new mhz options.
Yes, it improves your phone.

Thank you for your replyç
So you use GT540 with 2.2 Openswift? how it is? also you use setcpu together? does it harm when we put it to 806 Mhz? Does it drain battery fast?
Also fixing the Mhz to 480 or 600 makes phone faster? Some people say that fixing the Mhz to 480 will make your phone faster...

For me it does. It's different to each phone and apps. Same for "how does i use my device?" If u play all time and watch YouTube videos, ofc it drains very fast. Didn't see any difference when i listen to music in backround.

I can't say yes or no. U can choose some different profiles for SetCPU. For example: your phone screen turns off and SetCPU sets the CPU to 250Mhz. U can save a lot of battery.

I can not say somthing about this. I didn't use 480 or 600mhz. I went straight to 840. Ok, with 840 i've got some problems with reboot and crashes so i set 806 and this works fine for me.

please can someone tell me how to enter fastboot mode on gt540 ? I tried everthing but it didnt work, and yeah do you need fastboot to overclock this phone ? (btw sorry for my bad english)

The best I've managed to get my phone running at is 825MHz but I'm sticking to 748MHz because it gives a reasonable compromise between battery life and performance.

I like to comprimise the battery life for the power, i charge every night so it dosnt matter to me

How accurate is the battery meter on 2.2? The battery meter on Swiftdroid is very unstable, which largely affects it by overclocking.

TIC [Thermal Imaging Camera] about x8 and x10

Hi Dear X8&X10 Users!
First of all. I dont want to change the world, just want to share my experice what i gained during my studies and share these pictures what are not common, (because we use non-common cameras)
I have a chance to make TIC pic about our phone, while charging, and tomarrow i have a new chance to make more pic.
So, me and one of my frined, just decided to make some pic, and explanation.
The x8 and x10 is about 20-30°C in normal condition. But. When you start to charge your phone its starts to heating(you can experience it),from outside to inside as the picture shows it.Its about 40-50°C while charging but it's just a relative degree and need more metering to get the correct value.
Tomorrow i have a new chance to make other pics about our phone. I planned to make some pic about processor, but i think we wont see anything difference from it's enviroment because the armv6 chipset is too small to sense it, and need more sensitive devices to make a good picture what can be evaluated.

​About the pics.
You can see the x8 and x10 when they were started to charge to full charged. The interesting thing is, when you can see the starting of the charge. The battery is starting to heating from outside to inside. My opinion is, that the cells of the battery starts the electricity gaining from the outside. While charging the degree is starting to increase and while its full charged its started to cooling,at 100% it goes back to normal temperature.
While started to charge:
The processe:
THe cooled ones after charging (plugged in but 100%):
​About the screen.
​Its just a normal surface, which behave like everything what we touch. You leave thermal points on it, and nothing more. We checked the temperature of the screen while we set the brightness higher and higher....and.........nothing. Nor temperature increasing.
I hope you enjoy this review, i'm gona continue it tomorrow with CPU test, and standerd temperature after OC.
(I'm a safety engineer, who want to know a lot about the phones safety, and the connection between battery and CPU overheatings)

It's a nice idea, but one problem. My hands are heating the screen & device and when i dont touch it, it goes to normal temperature....the screen doesnt indicate too much heat. the only thing you can see is my fingerprints on my screen But sure, i'll do it, i'm gona back to MiniCM and install some hard game like DeadSpace and NFS

Ok i explain. Our CPU is small, about 20-25 squaremilimeters. So if its indicate some heat it lost between the camera and the CPU, so senseable diference between the 2 temperature will not be shown. But! if i punnish my phone, and take out the battery during the hard gaming, there is a little chance to see some heat-point on the shell!
I'll try my best

[THEORY] Remove Touchpad Lag in JB + Theoretically Boost GPU!

My Theory + Story, Keep parts in-mind as they come together slowly,
PT1:
Hey Guys today i wanted to SuperClean & Restart my Device, so i Attempted to type "su", Instead i typed "du" and Suddenly all file locations listed just in my face, and it took like 10 seconds as each directory was flying by and i Saw a tone of writting but a couple of listings caught my eye, It was something like "irq/"
PT2:
Like a 2 weeks ago i got a new laptop, and it had decent specs, Intel HD 3000 as a iGPU and an Intel i3 Clocked at 2.10GHz, so I downloaded Black ops 2 in Hope to get it running at a decent 30FPs at least on Multiplayer, So I Fired it up and it was at an appauling 9FPs, Casually Treyarch gave me the "Optimal" Settings or sth, but then i lowerd them down to Low and saw a big boost to about 30FPs AVG but i was still upset with the frequent FPs Drops, so instead i Google'd some ways of Boosting the Blops 2 FPs, and the First thread that came up was "FPS Tweaks for Black ops 2", So this Thread showed me how to modify the windows Prioritys, It works with IRQ's (Remember this from PT1?) so i Popped up the registry and modifyed my IRQ of my CMOS/Clock Control to 1 and my GFX Card to 2, Now black Ops 2 Was Blazin Fast, i had 50 FPs avg and the lowest drops were about 38 FPs!
PT3:
Within the Listings in Terminal Emulator (after scrolling to find it...) i found "irq/161/synaptics_touchpad", So Isnt this the touchpads in the xPlay?, Well Yes It probably is, so after scrolling down the irq list i found multiple things that could be prioritized (cypress_touchscreen = more responsiveness!, but couldent find gpu.. ), so I thought about the Touchpad Lag in JB, and so well if we were able to prioritize this then wouldent the touchpads in JB be smooth?, Theoretically YES, but it hasent been done yet!, i dont know if simply moving the folder to the "irq/1/" would prioritize this or whether lots of other things are Linked to it, so wouldent this break it?, Well Maby.. Thing is its dangerous to test this and im not even sure if this is the priority stuffs!
I hope we can get this working and finally Fix the touchpad lag at least, but dont forget this an be done for multiple pices of hardware if we can identify the hardware!,

The problem if i remember correctly is that when we touch the touchpads a lot of events starts, and this cause the lag; if you want more information look into farenheit's thread, something like a year ago he and Dan were studing the problem better

Totally wrong.
You can't edit these things, because are "virtual files" of processes that are running in your device, so the memory always is writing onto these files, and there is no content, only bits. If you have knowledge in linux /proc= process.

Theoretically Boost GPU!

Boosting GPU = Increasing lag in games.
It's a direct relationship in Xperia Play.

no, what we have seen is overclocking the GPU, not boost its priority,

wait wouldent moving the process then to a higher priority still work then?, its like the same?, it would still work if it were to be processes!
