Hey all,
When i run Quadrant Benchmark on my Device , it scores about 1400 points.
But this seems a bit low for me, because i flashed VirtousRom 0.7.3, with cpu speed at 1.4 GHz. Especially when i compare with the results on smartphonebenchmarks.com, they score much higher.
Can somebody explain that to me?

Hmm.. That does seem a bit low.. I'm running stock Rom with a 1.2Ghz overclock and will score just over 2k on Quadrant.

Maybe that's too high for your device? Have you tried the ones in between?

The clock speed cant be an issue...i have done multiple benchmarks with it clocked all the way up to 1.8ghz...i doubt 1.2 or 1.4 is too high for the device...must be something with the ROM...im running the same rom tho just the most recent one 0.7.4 ill report back with a 1.2ghz and 1.4ghz oc benchmark
So heres the results on my Bell DZ running virtous 0.7.4
1.2ghz Run1-1919, Run2-1985, Run3-2029
1.4ghz Run1-2092, Run2-2285, Run3-2233
1.6ghz Run1-2214, Run2-2336, Run3-2396
1.8ghz Run1-2294, Run2-2542, Run3-2415
Probably pretty bogged down with like a 100apps

Ok, the problem was setCPU, reinstalled it and now it works.
Got 2300 points with 1.49 GHz and the whole system is running much smoother.
But anyway thanks for the replies.

Really,.... aha,... I might try a re-install n all. Nice one.

Recently got Droid X Overclock and have been playing with it. I've seen the CPU Benchmark and Quadrant threads, got some decent scores but seems to be most stabile @ 1300 Undervolting.
What exactly are the benefits, what's the difference between the voltages? Currently undervolting because my impression is it'll give me longer battery life, but read some threads saying it is somewhat a myth? Can anyone that truly understands this comment?
Im going to make this as simple as possible. I can only tell that it makes a difference in benchmarking.

Same here... lol
Neither of you can tell a difference with battery life?
I've been wanting to overclock/undervolt, but I was curious as well. Do I have to overclock each time I flash or upgrade a ROM? I'm currently on Liberty 1.0, but once they come out with an update would I need to overclock once again?
Thanks in advance.
I am on Apex 1.3 and have noticed increased battery life but not sure if its due to the ROM or undervolting.. will most likely check out Fission or Liberty tomorrow.

I OC/UV to 1.3 ULV settings in liberty lastnight. My phone has been on for 10 hours, display on with heavy use for about 45 mins, still at 90%. So far, that is a bit better then any other OC setting I used, and it's very stable. I noticed with other settings, I had weird reboots, so I think a lot of it depends on what works for your phone the best. I would test them out and see the results.
Now we have root on ARC, its high time we overclock it...
SetCpu doesn't work...
Can someone provide a comprehensive tutorial on overclocking and benchmarking ARC...???
First you need a custom kernel
and search..there's already a thread for this.

With "setCPU works" they just mean it works. you can't go above 1Ghz that's how it is for now.
Please, edit the tittle.

Exactly thats what I observed... That simply means it isn't workig as it should...!!!

That's because you don't know how setCPU works apparently
It works perfectly, setCPU allow you to modify the frequency of the processor within the range allowed by the kernel.
So once again, we need a custom kernel that modifies the voltage and frequencies allowed for setCPU to go higher than 1Ghz.
Just curious why do you wan't to overclock the phone, is it to slow?
What will happen if you overclock:
- higher battery drain
- Phone gets really hot
- it makes the cpu unstable
I never overclocked my phones and even the hero still runs fast.

The title says, "OverClocking"... I don't want to my cpu to work at lower freqs... I need overclocking...
Besides we r not here to discuss setCpu...
Waiting for custom Kernel...!!!
yup guys setcpu is working in our Arc in terms of 'battery saving' for now
overclocking is for later (or sooner i hope)
The MSM8255 can be overclocked to 1.8GHz on the Desire HD. I'll try to make an overclock kernel this week, but it's definately more work than I thought.

If u know how to make a kernal go ahead so I can use more cpu but it works anyway the development isnt all too good at the minute but will be hopefully then we will have roms and hopefully kernals but u cant ***** about things if you cant try things your self just my opinion

Yes you are right the maximum is 1024 cant go any further i didn't know that he meant to go above 1024
before open such threads you should know about overclocking, of course setcpu wont enable overclock with stock kernel, why should it???
Speed is something which we always want more .. If we get Dual Core with 1.2Ghz still we need to over to push the limit. That's human nature ....
I have got overclocked Xperia Neo and when it was on 1.8 ghz it was 1. stable 2. cold 3. and really fast! but when you start to play somethink yes then it is really hot and it drain a battery too much I think oc is good.

Yes you can use Tegrak Overclock (Ultimate) from the market, works on stock kernels
But be very carefull with your voltages, you are warned!
Do you maybe have good settings for the program?
is it possible to underclock to?
Can i leave the voltage standart and only set the cpu to 1.5 or 1.6
Thank you

You might want to look in the kernel threads (FM kernel, Abyss, etc) in development, there is enough info concerning your question, and yes you can underclock with tegrak.
With tegrak you can use any cpu speed you want, is not fixed to a few settings.
I don't recommend overclocking

I think i wait with overclocking, its fast enough but sometimes its fun to tweak, but its to mutch risk i think, so after i downloaded the app and set it to 1.5, i did set it to default via the app and removed it

One useful thing to do is underclock and undervolt. This phone works perfectl in 1.0ghz with -50 voltage on all clocks and a maximum of 500mnz with screen off, and itll save u a lot of battery.

What voltage are you using?
i want to overclock but when i read the message be carefull with the voltage it scared me a bit, dont want to destroy it so fast haha.
is it faster on 1.5 or almost not?
@viamonte: do you mean underclocking the slowest cpu speed when it is in deep sleep?

I've not touched the voltage. If my s2 could handle 1.5ghz I'm sure the Note will be just fine.

I have mine now on standart 1.4, when i think its to slow then i wil overclock it to 1.6 or flash a custom rom and overclock it to 1.7.
Does somebody now what the speed is from the gpu?

i've set my cpu to 1.6 and didn't touch the voltages, i left it at 1250mv and 1100mv for core and internal voltages respectively. been on this setting for 2 days now and i haven't had any problems so far. but i was wondering with that cpu frequency is it possible to undervolt?

Because you can?
Why wouldn't you?
My PC is a 2.66Ghz which has been running at 4.0Ghz since day 1. Like I said, if more power is available at no risk, and absolutely no extra cost, then the question isn't why, the question is WHY NOT?

True! My PC is a Core i7 2600k 3.4GHz which has has been overclocked to 4.7GHz.
Why? Because you can as you said! It's simply to make an insanely fast product run even faster!!
Is there such thing as a safe overclock speed? Will my phone blow up for running it at 1.2 on a daily basis? (I searched for this topic but couldn't find anything specific to the glacier)
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
The cpu in this phone overclocks well. 1.2 definitely won't hurt it. I've known people who ran everyday at 1.5.
I have an excellent cable internet service, with wireless. As such, I don't notice a real difference when I'm on WiFi. I wouldn't want to overclock anymore than 1.2 to 1.4

I'm just referring to the overall speed and performance of the handset. I haven't noticed any better performance with my phone being overclocked...isn't that the purpose of overclocking, to increase speed & performance? If not I am misunderstanding the purpose of overclocking?
I was just saying that with browsing and overall usage on my WiFi connection its hard to notice any changes whether I'm running at 1 GHz or 1.5 GHz ....
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium
Overclocking doesn't speed up internet service though. It just speeds up scrolling through pages, windows, opening applications and overall performance within the applications and device.
I would get SetCPU, then you probably are fine up to 1.4 ghz. I really can't recommend pushing it higher because there isn't a noticable performance increase. I use SetCPU and i am clocked at around 122Mhz-1.3Ghz with a screen off profile of 122-768Mhz and a temperature profile of 32C> 122Mhz-1.0Ghz.
I know, a lot to take in but i get really good battery life with that stuff. If you get SetCPU, experiment.
Also, here are the take away messages.
1. USE SETCPU, ITS AWESOME
2.DON'T PUSH IT TO 2GHZ. YOU WILL FRY YOUR MOTHERBOARD
---If i have help, well you know the button to push---

I have been running at 1.2 for a year now and no problems whatsoever. Actually, what I have found has helped performance was to set the minimum CPU a little higher. It allows for a little less lag while your CPU is "spinning up." (I mean at 230, not at 500 or something)
1.2 is a very stable Overclock. You shouldn't run into any problems with that setting. Anything above 1.5 I wouldn't mess with, and you probably wouldn't see much of a real world speed increase from it anyway.
