can figure out how to get my speeds above 663? i got this giant processor and cannt use near close to all of it??? thanks
Did u try SetCPU for it?
It is AUTOMATIC. Just because you're not seeing the 998mhz, doesn't mean it's not getting there when under adequate load.
It is kinda same like on newer cpus for pc. maybe it says 2.66 Ghz but it is not clocked like that whole time. just "under pressure"
Actually, I recall someone else posting about this a few days ago, and another XDA'er pointed out that the app was measuring one way, and the true speed was actually 1.5 times that measurement. 663*1.5=994.5mhz. Again, you're fine.

SetCpu supposedly works for the nexus but I'm not a fan of that app, I talked to the overclock widget app and he said he's working on support for the nexus

Hello
Over the last eight months I have been afraid to root my phone, but finally manned up and rooted and went with cm6
So my question is this...what are some must have apps for me to get the ultimate performance out of my phone? Any specific launchers, battery apps etc...

In my experience, using applications and mods don't work well for me and don't seem to ever have a positive effect on my phone for performance/battery.
One thing I will tell you NOT to do, and it is a common thing, is use a Task Killer. They don't help improve battery life as some say. It's actually argued that it makes it worse.
You can try turning JIT on, and if it's stable for you, then that is supposed to help performance.
(Settings > CM Settings > Performance > Enable JIT) Requires reboot.
A must have is collins_ph battery tweak, getting ridiculous battery life with his tweak (100 or so hours)
Few of my favorites, chrome to phone, voice actions and adb wireless
I do use task killer but autokill is off, I use it when an app freezes
+ 1 on chrome to phone and voice actions. And it's not froyo our even root specific, but awesome drop is a must have as well, I think anyways. Also, I couldn't live without swype or google voice.

+1 Though I'm not a big poster on these forums, I read constantly everyday and am ALWAYS tinkering with different roms,kernels,settings,etc. First and foremost, are you using CM6 or CM6 RC1? I would suggest RC1 if your not already on it. I have been on and off the task killer bandwagon but currently don't use any kind of task management. I don't feel its necessary on froyo and have had good success without it.
Flash google gaaps if you dont have them already if you need gmail and such.
My must haves are ROM Manager, Wireless tether, Beautiful widgets, Chrome to phone, Handcent and as for a browser I use Xscope. X scope is nice cause it has a decent file manager built in, a task manager,(Which I dont use) Download-able themes and a bunch of other goodies as well. OH And I cant forget doodle jump! LOL!
I also am using the Decad3nce V8 kernel but unless you know what your doing I would stay with the stock kernel.
Some have had luck with collins battery tweek, although I have not, (Probably cause I'm not smart enough to set it up! LOL!)
I have used Jit on and Jit off but I haven't really seen much of a difference. I don't think we really have the hardware to make good use of Jit. Although I have google ****s Im kind of a minimalist when it comes to my Hero so I dont like to add too much crap on it!
Good Luck!
chrome to phone is awesome. I use it all the time to send directions to my phone for navigation. Although I haven't used it lately AppBrain is very useful. I don't like ADW Launcher, so I have Launcher Pro Plus,I also installed Beautiful Widgets and Extended Controls which make my homescreen look good. If you can find the apk for fancy widget it also replicates the HTC weather clock, but is no longer in the market.

Send web pages, links, text, directions to your phone from your computer - comes in handy when you don't use adb like me and you can send threads of whatever you are wanting to download... or if you're reading something before work and have to go you can send the link to your phone, etc...

hey thanks both of yall but i got it to work
Thanks for the tips everyone. I am still trying to figure all of this stuff out, quite addicting I must say.
Launcher Pro Plus is definitely a must have for me. Although it's a paid app it's definitely worth the few dollars to buy it. The only pro's to the paid version are the sense-like widgets but it's worth it to support the dev.
I tried downloading the apk's for swype buy it seems like I don't have the swype keyboard .... any help would be excellent

Did you enable it via Language and Keyboards under Settings?
I've been unable to overclock beyond the actual spec of 1ghz. Yes, I'm pretty pleased having been able to choose, granularly under what conditions it uses what amount of CPU - but I'd prefer to have the physical limit, as opposed to the ROM choose the upper end of the speed. Any advice? Is anyone working on this? Is it locked? Is it irrelevant? The system IS pretty damned snaptastic.
Thanks ...
I think if you specify your own frequency list to SetCPU you can overclock the device.
in order to overclock an android device, you first need to obtain source code (not sure if its available yet) so a developer can tinker with the kernel.
setcpu allows you to set min/max standards, but unless the kernel supports it, you cannot clock over what setcpu reads (stock 1ghz)

Why would you even bother with overclocking this phone? It's already got a Thousand megahertz.. Literally
I'm the developer of the overclocking app, QuickClock, and I was wondering if any DroidPro owners had tried it out? I've attempted to add support for the DroidPro but I've yet to find out if it actually works or not. Should work fine, since it's the same CPU and QuickClock's speed detection works universally, but I'd love to have some confirmation.
Thanks much

Quickclock does not work just tried it, it says module can not be found and phone not supported

My Overclock with quick overclock
I overclocked my droid pro to about 2.0 ghz without any instability with quickclock... it doesnt have a very large performance increase though... just slightly...
*EDIT* Never mind the application was malfunctioning and set my min clock to 9999mhz and my max was 1000mhz i re installed and atm its calibrating... max atm is 1305mhz with a big difference in performance... thanks for the app

Hi. I used your app, and it overclocked my droid pro, without any problems. Max speed by colibrating was set to 1406 mhz. And its stable.
Thank you for app.

Hi. I'm using a droid pro w cm7 v8 vanilla rom. Prob is quickclock gets stuck during calibration. It gets stuck trying to find the BMV. I'm guessing something is blocking the app from changing the value? It gets way down into negative numbers and will keep going all night. I made sure the app has root permissions. Any ideas? Thx in advance

Okay, I searched A TON on this, and while I found posts on this forum and others that address it, the accepted solution doesn't seem to be working for me. In my battery usage panel, htc.com.bgp is always near the top of the list. After the battery usage panel loads, htc.com.bgp turns into "Calendar", and when I click on it I see that there are many many different things "packaged" within it. Anyway, the consensus in other threads seems to be "clear cache for gmail and calendar" which I've done and it has no effect. It is consistently ALWAYS at the top of battery drainers, and sometimes goes above threshold (via Watchdog).
So...does anyone have any more info on what might be causing this, and how to stop it? I actually use my calendar so deleting it isn't an option, and ideally I don't want to completely disable sync, but I will if I must. There must be a way to just use the calendar as it was intended without eating up 20% of the battery usage!! Anyway, a little background on where I am in case it has an effect, I'm perm-rooted, s=off, still running stock, but with LPP as my launcher, and the only system tweaks I've made are installing faux's kernel and setting up setCPU, and doing a battery mod. But since rooting, the htc.com.bgp thing seems to have become a bigger issue. Any ideas?
Is this process strictly tied to the calendar? What happens if you're using a different calendar?
This probably isn't the answer you want to hear, but one solution is to flash a custom ROM that doesn't have any of HTC's overlay on it, but I suppose you're sticking to stock for a reason.
I'm stickin to my guns here by saying that stock Rom doesn't play well with root..
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Wow, I hadn't even considered or heard that the stock rom doesn't work well with root, but it makes sense when I think about it because ever since rooting my phone has been a little wackier than normal. Freezes up sometimes, and battery hasn't been great at all. The main reason I hadn't flashed a new rom yet was because since I'm running LPP I didn't think it really mattered what rom I was on...but I may just flash Cyanogen7 and then run LPP over that if you think it'd make that big a difference. Certainly worth a shot! Thanks for the tips guys.
Don't want to beat a dead horse, but just had to come back and say that I've flashed cm7, and so far my phone seems to be operating MUCH better, with LPP running over it. Thanks for the tip about stock not playing nice with root!!

Yes and no. Some people really like it and there are definitely some features which even I miss now that I'm on CM7 (I personally liked the contacts app on sense). What kills it for me is the framework and everything that has to run in the background in order for all that to work. I like ROMs under 100MB.

This +1. I actually liked a lot of aspects about mysense, like the contacts app you mentioned, as well as the dialer in general. But the benefits of switching to AOSP have so far greatly outweighed the negatives. I'm happy to trade down on the dialer/contacts and a couple other things in exchange for an overall smoother, faster experience with what seems so far to be much better battery life.
I can say this is a problem for non-rooted, stock MT4G as well. Has nothing to do with root. No one has been able to identify a source of the problem or a solution from what I have found.

I had been using System Tuner Pro when not using KT kennels, but is became outdated and was disconnected. It was rolled into a package of tools, but like Pro - it will not work with setting OC, so looking for other alternatives. When I use KT, its tweaker app is excellent - but does not always play well with other kernels.
There are a few CPU tools with a bunch of phoney 5 star ratings which should be avoided, as real reviewer comments indicate major issues. So are there any good ones that people here are using and can vouch for?
Andromizer?

Thanks - will give it a look. I again see many phony 5 star ratings (they are the ones with no comments), but some real positive ones as well as some bricks. Will stay away from all but the most basic settings (OC/UV, etc) in order to steer clear of issues that some have had problems with.
Update on Andromizer. So far, basic OC settings will not stick. Also, no profiles like max frequency on screen off, while on call, etc. Thought its Pro version might be needed to stick them, but not the case - took a refund on it.

I had tried SetCPU before System Tuner and it had issues also (a bit dated with respect to working with multicore). Just tried it and OC also does not stick. Oh well.
Again - looking for suggestions from posters on this device that are having good results.
