need help to get the best of my defy plus - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I've installed the latest Quarx CM.10 and the latest JellyX Kernel last night.
so far I'm having a nice time but... i was wondering, how can i get the most of my defy plus with this ROM and Kernel?
Thanks.:cyclops:

I am using the latest build from quarx and the default kernel which is included in it. Very stable. I have overclocked it to 1300. Must tell you the gaming is much better now. Battery backup is nice. I managed to find the perfect overclock settings :
300 - vsel 15
800 - vsel 42
1100 - vsel 56
1300 - vsel 66
No heating probs. Just super duper smooth

to dev: add UnderVolted & OverClocked kernel with Full ram support

Hi
I'm. Running all day the "UnderVolted & OverClocked kernel with Full ram support " with mattc 1.5, with the 925 zimage and is running as good as most of the Wm rom.
Couple hours internet browsing, 20 min talk. .. and I have on the end of the day 20% battery left
Is running very smooth
Dev, can you add this code to the official git tree. ?
Thank. You for your great work!

Especially interested on:
Conservative CPUfreq governor
Conservative governor is the default CPUfreq governor
No. My HD2 is unstable with overclocked cpu. It reboots itself sometimes, so that i returned back to default. it is already fast and has long battery life. No need to overclock.
Kernel should improve performance itself, not by using overclocked cpu.

[Q] Unable to underclock below 245mhz with cyanogenmod 7.1.0 rc1. unbelieveable!

Yeah. Even when disabling the perflock, it won't let me chance the minimum frequency. ive tried setcpu, cpumaster, cputuner and a bunch of other apps. is there anybody here who's had the same problemo?
my kernel is 2.6.32
before rc1, just two hours ago, i had nightly version 173. i flashed rc1, because obviously i misread that it had a different kernel, 2.6.35. yeah right. im gonna rage soon. the battery drainage is horrible.
plz helps!??!?1one
edit: oh, what would you recon as the best rom for legend? thanks!
Maybe overclock is only on stable version, rc and nightly made for testing other stuff.
I use some mod of blayo rom, no overclock. Works awesome. More then 90 days without flashing or even reboot. Well only feature i need from custom rom is root and wake up on trackboll.

Thanks for replying! actually, the in-built cpumanager works like a charm, and i have been using it clocked to 825mhz. And cyanogen all in all works great, suprisingly nightly version 173 works better than 7.1.0 rc1.
But still, i cant UNDERclock the dang cpu. someone had his legend run with minimum freq at 19 mhz - and had a large impact on the battery life with the setup.
And it worked ok with incoming call?
There is no way to clock this kernel below 245 MHz unless you alter its frequency table and recompile it yourself. May I ask you why do you want to go below 245 MHz?

Bummer. Got no skills for that. I do alot of reading, and the system does not need 245mhz to run a screen with some text on it, i suppose. oh well...
so, your rom can be clocked below 245mhz? would you recommend it for everyday use? thanks!
Yeah, but when you are reading, you have to slide a lot I guess?
My conclusion was (after an extensive testing) that lowering the speed below 245 MHz didn't add much to battery life so I'm actually using just two profiles... one for screen on 245 - 768 MHz and one for screen off 122 - 480 MHz. Scaling governor is interactive in both cases.
If I can recommend my ROM? Dunno. I'm using it since I started it and I'm satisfied with it. I don't need anything else

[Q] Perfect overclock config @ 1.2 ghz defy

Yeah am new To xda and i want to overclock my defy @ 1.2 ghz ... and whenever
i try to overclock above 1000 mhz it starts heating upto 43 degrees... plz give me the overclocking values @ stable ... and is this overheating do serious damage to phones hardware!.....! thanks
My setting :
300 Mhz / 30 Vsel
600 Mhz / 42 Vsel
800 Mhz /50 Vsel or 900 Mhz / 54 Vsel
1.0 Ghz / 58 Vsel or 1.2 Ghz / 66 Vsel
You can use this setting without any risk. 1.2 Ghz is the original value of OMAP 3630 on Droid2.
But i think you have another problem on your phone (something running) to get 43° for your battery. Mine is allways between 30° and 37° max running at 1.2 GHZ...
Note : original Defy+ settings = 300/33 ; 600/48 ; 800/58 ; 1000/68

300mhz @ 26Vsel
600mhz @ 38Vsel
1200 mhz @ 58 Vsel
what vsel do u use for 1ghz?
For 1.2ghz try using a low vsel and test if it works. Keep increasing it by 1 until it is stable.
For my phone the minimum it could handle wihtout crashing immediately is 56. Its pretty stable at 58 and for games or if i need more stability i try to raise it to 60-64. But it starts heating faster
i use 48 for 1 ghz its rock stable as it never crashed ...
minez - 320 at 17 ,,, 650 at 38 ,,, 1.2GHz at 60 ..... very stable
Mine is:

Do you really need 1.2ghz? Don't set high frecuencies if you dont need it.
Anyway, dont worry too much about temp. I'm on a hot country, and when i'm heavy using my defy, temp raises to 45C, no problem.
All android phones have automatic cooling mode when you reach critic temps. You dont have to worry about that.

i could lower each setting with 2 vsel and still get a stable phone, but i increased it just in case. and yeah, you dont need 1.2GHz, 1GHz will do just fine, dont worry.

1.2ghz is awesome and what it supposed to be
Just stumbled across this thread, wanting to test 1.2ghz and was wondering what app you guys are using to monitor temperatures? is set cpu good enough?
dude i use battery xl and it displays temp in the notifications !

These settings seem to be the most stable ive tried so far on my defy, and temp is very cool at 27 degrees. Thanks
I do suppose it depends on your phone i had 2 zte blades and one of the them was stable at 826mhz but the other would not go above 710mhz without constant reboots
Wait until we get unlocked boot loader that is when the overclocking gets serious XD my nexus is at 1.2ghz with smartassV2 govenor and its rock stable, saying that with unlocked bootloader the potential is endless like with my xperia arc it has qualcomm snapdragon msm8255 @ 1ghz but with DooMLoRD's kernel can have a max of 1.9ghz But then again i hate my xperia arc lol

not every cpu is identical , thats why not every phone can reach the same clock rates. To avoid damaging your cpu , its important not to set the vsel too high.
On my defy i never had it set over 65vsel.
70vsel is the max. limit so ive heard.
when yous settings are unstabile you could either clock down or set your vsel higher.
I AM USING [ROM]Android 2.3.6 - 4.5.2-109_DHT-25(mod. "spear1403")
I CHANGE A VERY FEW VALUES FROM: RECOVERY, SYSTEM, OVERLOCK. AND MY PHONE GONE SLOW, LIMPACK SHOW ME: 4 MFLOP!!!
SOME ONE TRY THIS?
1.2 GHz!!! the battery drains very fast or not?
My Defy is stable with:
vsel1: 25 vsel @ 0330 mhz
vsel2: 38 vsel @ 0800 mhz
vsel3: 51 vsel @ 1200 mhz
vsel4: 62 vsel @ 1400 mhz
The Defy of my GF crashes with these settings...
she uses:
vsel1: 31 vsel @ 0330 mhz
vsel2: 41 vsel @ 0800 mhz
vsel3: 58 vsel @ 1000 mhz
vsel4: 64 vsel @ 1200 mhz
EDIT: I need 1400 mhz to play GTAIII lagfree also lot of stuff like Skype calling / Fritz Fon / PhotoShop Express are working better on 1400 than on 1000, I don't understand why everybody says we do not need more than 1000, also the battery drain is about the vsel and not the frequency. My battery lasts loger on 62 vsel @ 1400 than on 64 vsel @ 1200
I am reading the posts in XDA about changing the default frequency of processor in DEFY as I am a beginner of CPU overclock, would like to ask for advice:
1. What is "vsel"? Is it the voltage set for the processor to run in certain frequency?
2. What is the default "vsel" for DEFY in 800MHz? I guess it is 58, right?
Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks a lot!

[APP] Vsel Calculator

Hello!
So this app was created originally for Motorola Defy, but i would like to test it on other devices.
It calculates the ideal Vsel based on your CPU frequency.
If you have 4 Vsels it will show you 4 results. If you have 3 it will show you 3
You can find the download link in the original thread (link below).
I hope you will enjoy it!

i gave it a try
the app is working, however i guess the results are way to low for the milestone
for comparison my milestone with cm7.2 has these settings:
800mhz @ 59
600mhz @ 52
400mhz @ 40
250mhz @ 32
125mhz @ 26
vsel calc gives me:
800mhz @ 42
600mhz @ 32
400mhz @ 22
250mhz @ 14
this is a big difference

Our kernel (motorola milestone (A853)) supports 5 slots for frequency. Have you deleted the 1000MHz/64vsel that kabaldan's cm7 includes by default?
btw, I've been running 1ghz at 60vsel for a while and it was stable. I guess it depends, up to a point, on individual device how high/low can mhz/vsel go.
But those values indeed seem too low.

yeah i deleted the default, i played some psx games with fpse and my milestone was pretty hot in couple of minutes. first i changed the cpu clock via cyanogen performance settings. everything worked fine but i wanted to save some battery too. so i looked until i found a 800mhz 10overclock file.
Added 5th row. Haven't fixed milestone settings yet...i'm on vacation
TO UPDATE THE APP JUST OPEN IT AND IN NOTIFICATION BAR THERE SHOULD BE UPDATE NOTIFICATION!

Vsel settings, please advice

Hi
Running quarx's cmx 1708, gb kernel, and incredibly pleased!
However I would very much appreciate some help with the vsel settings.
There are 4 levels. Default though seems to be three, 300, 600 and 1000 mHz.
Can anyone advice me how to configure the cpu settings for good performance and very good battery life (don't want my defy downgraded to a portable Commodore 64, but battery life is more important than performance)
My current settings are
300 @ 17
600 @ 32
1100 @ 57
1200 @ 62.
Don't know why though
swajpat på min gelebönade defy!
The settings are fine I guess. Just added the above frequencies in VSel Calculator. It gives the same recommended vsels.
