Aparently the CPU may only be clocked to 800Mhz........
If you got this from the Au website, Whirlpool, than I think they are talking about the iPhone 4, not the Galaxy S
well it's from the galaxy s thread and one of the guy who's doing the testing and stuff for samsung says this......definitely not iphone.
Guess just wait and see when it's released I suppose
huh? wat are you guys talking about? its 1ghz cpu
forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1409745&p=58#r1152 is the link to the post where the user suggests it is 800mhz underclocked.
Yh, sorry, was reading a thread where they were talking about the iPhone being underclocked, just reading more, it seems it may be the case.
Will mean battery last longer, not such a bad thing, as long as it doesn't effect any of the performance of the phone
If they say 1Ghz then it is 1Ghz or else they're going to have a lawsuit on their hands. Nothing in between(except of course scaling).
I have the galaxy s and im pretty sure its 1ghz.. at least system panel tells me its 1ghz but singapore set are all 16gb model.
information from system panel:
ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7I)
bogomips 797.90 (may vary)
min clock 100mhz
max clock 1000mhz
on Nexus one using pershoot kernel but cpuset at 245mhz - 998mhz, it shows:
ARMv7 processor rev 2 (v7I)
bogomips 662.40 (may vary)
min clock 245 mhz
max clock 998mhz
so maybe the 8gb are down clocked?
Doubt the 8Gb version would be clocked lower. Thanks for posting your findings!
It's just the power of forums and the internet, allowing mis-information to spread at the speed of light
lol yep, looks like he was confused at the sliding clock speed....
when i ran quandrant standard it read armv7 processor rev 2 , max 1000 min 100
set frequency 800
is that normal

It's 1 GHz, I checked the clock frequency with a monitoring application and it's dynamic but when required it clocks up to 1 GHz.

thanks for clearing this up

Wait, what?
The iPhone 4 may be clocked at 800mhz?
Can someone give source on this?

I don't have a link to that claim, but I think it was Gizmodo in their testing of the iPhone 4 and iPad noted the iPad did feel faster and the web browser rendered pages faster, despite both using the A4 processor. They hypothesised that it is the same architecture CPU in both, but different clock speeds.
After all, to get 10 hours out of the iPad the teardowns and x-ray scans show about 80% of the volume inside is all battery. If the iPhone 4 and iPad had the same processor, you'd think the iPhone's battery would be pretty bad considering the far smaller volume (although smaller screen not sucking as much power).
Wouldn't be surprising. After all, the Motorola Milestone / Droid has a mild underclock, as does the Acer Liquid to preserve battery life.
Probably cheaper for Apple to only have to manufacture 1 chip (the A4), but clock at different speeds appropriate to each device's battery life.
Apple doesn't focus as much on specs though, more that the user interface feels fast and smooth. If it achieves that purpose no need to worry about numbers, whereas since we have so much choice of handsets on Android specs do make a difference for us to know depending on our needs (eg: price vs performance vs battery).
My Samsung Galaxy S is running at 800mhz it sucks... i flashed it last night with the final build of 2.2 I9000XXjP6 for the Galaxy does anybody no how i can overclock it to 1ghz thanks People
The Galaxy S has a 1 GHz CPU. However, the clock speed is lowered while not needed to save battery life, just like on any modern PC. By default it is using the conservative governor.
The iPhone4 never was supposed to get a 1 GHz CPU. Apple never disclosed the number. But those who made benchmarks estimated the clock speed at about 800 MHz since is is about 20% slower than the iPad.
There is a Galaxy Lite version in some other countries that only maxes out at 800 Mhz
i think the guy reviewing the phone got it mixed up with that

He might have got mixed up, but the final 2.2 build for the Samsung Galaxy S is maxed out at 800 MHz for some stupid reason…. I’m going to flash it tonight again with a earlier build of 2.2 as I did some bench test and its only scoring a measly 900 points with the latest firmware installed.. Were as before it was scoring well over 2k…
Hello, i have overclock my tablet with tegrak, i have set cpu to 1600 and gpu to 400.
I have tray to play with gta3 with these settings and the risoult is awesome! The game is more smoth and the lag goes out! I mean at full resolution !
My question is.. sameone have any experience in overclocking this samsung devices with a9 and mali-400 ? Sameone have used any galaxy s2 or galaxy note for long times with the gpu and cpu overclocked? Any issues? Your overclocked devices still works or the overclock has broke it? In your opinion my p6800 (that is more large of a galaxy s2 and loss more heat)will handle an overclocked gpu and cpu without destroing itself? Please same real experience
Ps. Is there any way to overclock the mali in any different speedstep? The only one after 276 is 400, and 400 maybe can be too hot.
Don't you need a special kernel to be able to over clock? Or does tegrak somehow bypass that need?
all you need is lova.. xD just kidding, you need a rooted device and the last version of tegrak no kernel mod
While reading anandtech's review for nexus 7, It says "The only difference is that CPU clocks are 1.15 GHz for all four cores at 100%, or 1.3 GHz on a single core." Does this mean if I underclock my nexus 7 to 1.2ghz I'll be able to use all cores? Thanks in advance!
What the review is stating is that with standard rom and kernel from google its settings mean that it can only work at 1.15ghz on all four cores at once, with other kernels you can overclock this to be more at once or less depends what kernel you choose. Tbh mostly you wont notice a difference unless benchmarking but what use is a benchmark Id say you should judge a device by using it not by what a test tells you
Anyone knows why all apps i downloaded (cpu-z, monitor cpu, setcpu) only show max mhz at 1300?
i have a sm-g900h with arm15 cortex r2p3 , i understand that is an octa core with 4 cores at 2.1 ghz and 4 at 1.5
It is a phone problem or all these app don´t support the system?

It's likely most app do no "fully" support this new octa-core. I would suspect they only show the little CPU 4 cores @ 1.5GHz, however seeing 1.3GHz as the max is weird. In S4 octa-core, the max frequencies was used by both CPUs and frequencies below 600Mhz where meant to be used by little core (600Mhz being 1.2GHz on the little CPU, 700Mhz being exactly that on the big CPU), so there might be some similar tricks on the new S5. This would mean the kernel would only show 4 cores at any point in time.
Have you tried Android Tuner, it can adapt to any number of cores automatically (a little down arrow allows to switch to multi-core control) ? If you try it, can you post a screenshot here? I intend to buy the Galaxy S5 with 8 cores for testing purposes, so I'd be interested by first-hand screenshots, if any. You can check and post screenshots of the main CPU tab and also the Times tab which will show available cores timings for each frequencies.
OK Quick question to all the asus zenfone 2 owners i got the KE551Kl verson of the phone and on the GSMArena site states the KE551KL has a Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615 witch is right my phone has cpuz and it is a Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615 . and the site it states its clocked to 1.7 ghz but my phone never leaves 1.4ghz. Why give 1.7ghz as the spec if it cant go that high. can it go to 1.7ghz if so how can i get my phone to go to its maxed frequency.
What apps, tweaks, ROMs, mods, etc., etc. are you using? You have to be more specific...
im using Stock CM13 rom dont have any tweak apps on it to change the frequency. i did have a rom before that did but never could get it to stay at any frequency.
ASUS clocked it at 1.5GHz so you need custom kernel to overclock it.
