Hey guys, touch booster is really annoying on this phone. It pushes the phone to 1.06GHz everytime I touch it, and is starting to bug me.
Is there anyway to keep it scaling up properly?
I'm no expert at this stuff, but isn't this fast jump in CPU clock what pretty much makes Project Butter possible?
If I understand right (and I probably don't), I think this might have to do with with governor in-use. If your rooted; try using a different governor and then touching the screen.
Great, so now people are complaining about Project Butter's features... ok
How exactly does something like this bug you?
People are getting way too picky with this phone now. Relax, its a phone guys

The CPU goes up when you touch it so it can be responsive and quick to your inputs. How is this so annoying?
If you root it you can lower the max or change the governor buy chances are you will lose much of your responsiveness.
I understand that it is good for us to discuss issues and problems but some of the things I am seeing here are just really nit picking and complaining about things that are not bad at all. We are a spoiled society of humans, some more than others i guess.

you joke but there's a surprising amount of people that underclock their cpu thinking it will save battery...

Get some CPU control app and change the minimum frequency from 1GHz to 384MHz.

Under clocking will save battery in most cases but ot will also make your phone sluggish and slow depending on how much.

That will make your phone run so slow and crappy... Why have a decent cpu if the plan is to chop it? This defeats the entire purpose of having a 1.5ghz clock speed..

You have no idea what you are talking about.
Check the meaning of "MINIMUM CPU FREQUENCY".
P.S. O and btw I'm changed it to 384MHz on my Nexus 4. AND........wait for it........my nexus 4 is not slow and crappy........woo mind blown!
What I find interesting is on the nexus 4 the governor is on demand , and the scaling range is 0mhz- 1026mhz ( you can check using CPU spy +)
However on the nexus 10 , the governor is interactive and the scaling range is 0mhz -200mhz
I wonder why that is

that app is broken.
Try No-frills CPU control, or even AnTuTu CPU Master.
Is it interactive on the nexus 4 then? I just checked on my n10 smd it still says interactive

I'm using no-frills and the default is ondemand, scaling from 1GHz to 1.5GHz.
What I changed is only the minimum frequency from 1GHz to 384MHz. Nothing more.

Ask Google.
I have no idea. And I don't have a Nexus 10.

Nexus 10 is a dual core tablet, not a phone. Check your PC some time or laptop. They scale totally differently than a phone does.

I wanted to know if there was a way to find out if all 4 cores are working on my nexus 4?
an app like System Panel will tell you
Get prefmon . seriously awesome for checking the cores in real time

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and fairly new to Hacking and overclocking android devices. However I have been building and overclocking high end PC's for sometime. So I am no stranger to the risks or processes of overclocking.
But I have some questions that maybe you all can help me out with before I start overclocking my Nexus 7.
Here are my Current Specs and Software:
Nexus 7 Wi-fi version
SmoothRom v5.0 + LeanKernel
Currently I am overclocked to 1500 Mhz Max with 204 Mhz Min + Stock voltage
I have been able to find information about CPU overclocking. But after extensive searching I have not been able to find much on Nexus 7 GPU overclocking.
1. Does my kernel support GPU overclocking?
2. If so how do I enable it? Or where is it located? and what settings should I be looking for (Names)?
3. If you need an App to overclock the GPU are there any that are free (Or at least one worth paying for?).... and which one if any supports my kernel?
4. Are there any good Nexus 7 CPU and GPU overclocking guides someone could point me to?
Basically I am looking for someone who is experienced in Nexus 7 overclocking, to point me in the right direction and help me with some indepth questions that may come up.
Thanks guys
What temperature is your CPU?

According to System tweaks App 39c to 40c while idling in that program. I don't know how accurate that app is though.... so if there is a standard better app to monitor your CPU/GPU temps I am all ears
I have yet to find an app that allows you to monitor your temps during load. Again if you can suggest one I am all for it.
Try trickstermod

Download trickster mod from the app store you should be able to change the gpu voltage there

Alright I will check that out. But what about GPU clock settings can trickster change those too??? And if so.... What setting am I looking for because I saw nothing referencing GPU clocks in those words
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
It over clocks the GPU its on the 2nd to last page I think and you will see the clock speed and you can edit it, don't over kill though haha
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Lean kernel doesn't have GPU over clocking settings. Try M-kernel, you'll find gpu settings in the specific menu of trickster mod.
Does anyone know why on my nexus 4 it shows the extra graphics/ effects but doesn't on my nexus 7?

GPU
its because the adreno 320 is a much better gpu then tegra 3 i think its about 2.5x stronger so if gameloft put max graphics on nexus 7 it would lag
Wrong by a long shot!!! Tegra is one of the best CPU's around, just gotta tweak it. Also for your answer try a different ROM and kernel. Should help!!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I own both a nexus 7 and N4 and the nexus 4 is a lot faster even with the n4 CPU @800 and n7 CPU @1500 its still faster than the n7 in graphics
EDIt: anyone with a brain knows S4Pro is a. much stronger soc than tegra 3 do you work for nvidia or something oh yeahs when's the last time nvidia released drivers that's right never
Is there any way to improve the graphics?

You can find modded APKs (I am not gonna link them) but 90% of the time they won't work. You can try editing some config file in the data directory. Dunno which though.
Previous we can use Quad Core Manager to turn off the other cores. But the application seem not working now on note 3.
So anyone?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
I'm interested in this as well but the octa core version.
Anyone heard of a tool like this?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
Yeah. I think we can have maximise battery usage while turn off the core when not using. As I think 2 core enough for me to execute all the task. Hope to hear from more people.
