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.
Don't forget to add [SOLVED] to your thread title.

Hey, I recently received a second legend and so am going to push one of them to the limit, I am currently running at 844mhz no problem, and completely stable. I was wondering what the highest possible frequency is? Can I try to reach 1ghz or is that not possible?
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
Dumfuq's V4 will let you go to 864. In that thread there's a 960 tester too. Let us know!
Any chance of a link for that?

So IV got to 960, its starting to jitter but still stable, Ish lol its super fast though

Nice
I'd advise leaving it at 864 though.
You Sir are one lucky b**tard. No offence. I cannot go past 768.
None taken I'm running nightly cm 25 if it helps at all...

I Use the latest cyanogenmod 7 stable and my legend is running @ 825mhz for 2months no problemo but 864 is a no-go for me.. it instantly reboots when i select 864
did you test the 1ghz?
When rising the overclocking, is it advisable to slowly bring your legend up to speed if you want to go over 800k?

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.
Well, anyone feel like posting their scores for the new app?
I do, i got a single 118 mflop result at 1.7ghz before the tablet crashed, and a 116 at 1.6 ghz. Screenshot of 1.6ghz, crashed too quickly at 1.7ghz to get the shot. http://db.tt/1N60zqm

Just trial and error. I would start at 1.2ghz on stepping 5 and increase by 50mhz being sure to thoroughly test each clock rate.
Do NOT use the set on boot option until you are sure it is stable.

I ended up testing/benchmarking in 25mhz increments. I know it was a bit more time consuming, but I found that my NC could handle 1275 while using multimedia intensive apps, but a friend could get his up to 1325 running benchmarks and not rebooting.
I think we got in one or two runs at 1350, but it definitely wasn't stable. Broke 4200 in quadrant, for whatever that's worth.
I have it set at 1300 and performance and get 2582 how do you get 4200?

This was a fresh install with no other background tasks running. All we did was get the CM7 ROM loaded, OC Kernel and gapps.
I'll get some screenshots of his quad scores when he gets back from helping a buddy move. I think we took screenshots of everything 1250+. I might try getting a full reload working and see if I can break that barrier.
I'm running 1325 and the best score I can get is high 3100s.
Can you guys tell me what settings you have under performance menu?
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App
I got similar scores to them and I used the default settings In performance... I think its a matrer of what you have installed and your device. Also don't worry about quadrant scores they are not that important. If your nook runs smooth what does it matter?

Each machine will have to be trial and error. Different device..even same hardware are really all different to one degree or another....example...I have 2 nooks..both running the same version of cm..and kernel...my second one never gets past 3200 on quadrant...go figure...same exact software running on both.
I did this test with benchmarks back to back on higher cpu frequencies, and i ended up with 1325 being the highest stable i could go. Very low 3000's for benchmarks in quadrent which dont mean anything of course, but there ya go. Runs like a champ.
Sorry for the ignorant reply...but what will overclocking actually do? I have a NC with a dual boot CM7 SDcard. Didn't do it, bought it from Jonathan on Ebay, works great!
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 ....

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---

Lol I looked for the free download from xda for setcpu and found the thread but not the download. Will look harder now though!

Lol, its a paid app, i can't encourage pirating,,,Its only 2 or so dollars though so buy it and support the devs
It's free or was on xda. The developer puts the free version on here. No pirating.

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.

Not to mention battery life goes in the toilet at high clockspeeds
