Does the nav bar mod allow for more than the home/recent/back options? Thanks for putting these together.

no, its just the stock navbar within the system ui, the search and menu soft buttons are inside of the system ui, just not linked to the navbar. so in theory, to add those 2 buttons, i would have to go to the xml files and copy the instance where the back button is but change all references to back/menu. I was going to focus most of my development time on these mods but the 3.0 kernel source was released yesterday so i am working on a custom kernel. This means fully working ics roms. I am adding overclocking to 1.9 ghz, and some governers, the usual stuff.

the highest I have gotten it to go [while being ULV'ed] was 1.35Ghz
after being pushed any higher is would freeze and bootloop
really badly. This was when the Thunderbolt came
out and it still had Gingerbread with custom kernel.
I was able to get GB up to 1.6 by overvolting but like I said. You can fry it. Now if I go up that high it locks up instantly. Tbh oc up to 1.9 won't do you much good except drain the battery or screw the phone up permanently.

Totally agree.
I think the only reason you should have it that high is the "wow factor"
Now having it Under-Volted just a smidge is what I have always used..
You can't actually screw up your phone from oc'ing it, only ov'ing. Worst case scenario, it gets hot, freezes, and reboots... And you're right where you were before. I'm running mine at 1766 right now, all of our processors handle over clocking differently
Edit: running steady at 1920
Edit: aaaand it froze haha. Test your CPU's limits, mines 1766, what's yours?

Everyones processor has a different amount of wear and tear, the previous owner of my bolt never overclocked past 1.2 ghz so i can easilly run mine at 1.7 ghz stable, the option for 1.9 is there for those who can handle it

You indeed can ruin your processor running oc. It was intended to run at 1ghz and running oc at any level over what it was intended will shorten the life of if substantially. Lets not confuse people about that fact. It can be harmful for your processor.

I agree that it can shorten the life of your processor and ware it but your statement made it sound like if you select anything over 1.5 will instantly kill your cpu. That can happen with computers but in android if its clocked too high for the cpu to handle, the kernel panic makes it reboot so your processor doesnt in fact "fry itself".

Mine runs at 1.2ghz stock, since the JB update. I believe that these cpus are actually meant to run at 1.2ghz, but were under-clocked when released. So running at 1.3 or 1.4 ghz is really not pushing it.

I have always been an avid OC'er on any machine I have ever owned..
BUT just because -I- could not over-clock it higher didn't mean it was
a crappy kernel.. ALL phones are made differently no matter if it is the
same hardware profile or not...

I had a Samsung Moment and found this information out
it was a stock stocked at 600Mhz SPRINT OC'ed it to 800Mhz and
it could be OC'ed to 1.12Ghz without it freezing or being unstable.
So I know exactly what you are talking about when you said this..

First off I would like to thank everyone who tested and showed support to me, Derek and Brian, second of all the original thread for our ROM is HERE << this is where you will get the most support. Expect this in ROM Manager soon. More updates to come, I am still working with Drod to figure out the recent apps in the framework. Until then please enjoy this ROM and Kernels. They are all using the BFS and undervolted as low as possible without affecting waking. THEY DO NOT affect data. Please wipe before install. Thanks and more to come soon!
BROKEN:
Nothing
Wipe first!
**************************UPDATE (04/03/11)**************************
Same version, the only thing that was changed, was the wifi module was incorrect. Same download link.
The wifi module being incorrect broke wifi, and wireless tether.
This version now also defaults to 998 MHz. Just because the kernel allows you to overclock to 1.8 GHz, does not mean you should, remember that
**************************UPDATE (04/02/11)**************************
Script fixes/changes.
New Kernels (Updated BFS Patch)
Goodbye recent apps in notification bar.
**************************UPDATE (03/31/11)**************************

Bye bye AM/PM (bgill55)
Hello 1.8GHz Kernel (Pre loaded)
Few more tweaks to the guts!
***************v0.2**************
Since there are kernel issues with CWM, the kernel w/ ramdisk edits I made will be uploaded seperately as a PG05IMG.zip. Otherwise,
I virtually made it meaningless (for now)
Ads blocked by default (NOTE: This will cause issues with words w/ friends)
- To enable adds, run the script in terminal emulator (adblock -on or adblock -off enables/disables respectively)
Sense/AOSP Lockscreen option
- To switch back and forth, run the script "lockscreen" in terminal emulator (w/out quotes)
lockscreen -aosp enables aosp lockscreen (reboot to take effect) lockscreen -sense re-enables the sense lockscreen (reboot to take effect)
System Read/Write or Read/Only scripts
-To use this, run the script "sys" in terminal emulator (w/out quotes)
sys -rw mounts the system re-writeable, sys -ro mount the system read only.
VM tweaks moved to init.d due to kernel issue
Tweaked the pre-loaded sysctl.conf tweaks
ACTUALLY changed the wifi scan and vm heap size to 180/48 respectively (don't dev drunk)
***********************************
Sysctl.conf support
init.d support
Ondemand gov tweaks
VM tweaks
Fully optimized
Bash and nano added
Wifi scan interval upped to 180 for battery

Correct, I've been using this ROM since yesterday with the built in 1.8 ghz kernel. This is an absolute phenomenal ROM! My highest quadrant was over 2800 right after booting up.
Cool!!! gonna give it a go..
Alright I'm in, will report back shortly.
BTW thanks for the rom. Tell Drod I live in St. Pete, if he gets down this way I would surely buy him a few bruskie's for his work.
P.S. Smith, what is a good economical max clock over 1k mhz if I just want to watch movies and get the best battery life?
I hope you guys enjoy. Let me know!
Hell yeah... Gonna give it a go before I go to work tonight.

Flashed this morning, love the Rom. Runs smooth and the battery life seems better imo.
If I could make a suggestion, I love the five row app drawer a couple of the other roms have. Maybe this could be added at a later update? That and maybe a transparent app drawer. Thanks for all the work that's been put into this!

Very impressed so far (quads 1637, 1714,v1677). Everything seems to be functioning, have to wrap it up for tonight, time to go downtown and get frosty. Will hit this forum up tomorrow. Nothing like going out and depending on your phone when you've just flash a new rom/kernel. But it looks good, I'm confident. Great work, thanks again.
I LOVE this rom! Great battery life, even tho I have it oc to 1.8

Hey overclockers!
We have pushed this hardware so far beyond what it was originally designed to do. All other ICS-capable phones seem to have either faster-clocked or dual-core CPU. Overclocking seems to be a critical factor in pushing the limits of this device even further, to run the OS versions of the future and still perform smoothly without lag. So....
How about we share some OC/UV settings? Things like the following:
Voltage required for stable overclock at a certain frequency
Max stable frequency
What OC and testing apps do people recommend?
Which CPU Governor and I/O scheduler give you the best results?
Benchmark & stability test results
Kernel
ROM
Yes, I know OC/UV performance varies on every specific piece of silicon out there. But it would still be interesting to be able to compare OC with others to see if you're even in the ballpark. For example -- I'm perfectly stable at up to 1300Mhz and 1350mV vCore. I get app FCs and spontaneous reboots at 1500MHz even at up to 1525mV vCore. Is that better or worse than others? Is it really the OC that is causing the issue? Seems to be, cause it stops happening when I disable 1500Mhz.
If you overclock, please post your data here. Whichever data you like. Just please include your Kernel and ROM also, so that we can compare apples to apples.
Note: I am not actually encouraging anyone to overclock. There is always some risk involved, and it does technically void your warranty and can break your phone (but so can a lot of things ).

Edit:
I don't use 600Mhz, 900Mhz, 1100Mhz, or the 1300Mhz frequencies. And I undervolt everything. I also change the internal voltages to Rodderik's Genocide kernel defaults.

I usually just OC to 1200 on whatever the stock voltage is set to. Sometimes I run it a little higher when playing N64oid.
[*]Max stable voltage/frequency - 1500mhz - 1500mv

[*]CPU governor - Lagfree
[*]I/O scheduler - VR
[*]Kernel - Samurai cm7 1.27.12
[*]ROM - CM7.2 #44
However my everyday overclock is 1200mhz at 1350mv. I run this normally because this is the freq our processors were built to be able to run max. Sammy underclocked us for battery life since competition was only at 1ghz at the time. Normally I run the performance gov but lately this has been getting the cpu stuck at 800mhz. I have the epic touch 1800mah battery so I don't really have to worry about battery life.

My phone runs perfectly up to ~1.3Ghz. At ~1.4 freezing and crashing starts.
The voltage in my kernel for 1.3ghz is 1350. I don't mess with it.

I agree with him. I've tried overclocking and my phone can easily run 1.5ghz stable. Definitely boosts performance but not in any way that's entirely necassary (other than showing off, benchmarks, killing your battery faster, and shortening the life of your hardware). My phone runs perfectly smooth on stock cm9.

I must be biased because of my epic touch battery. I can go performance 100/1500 with screen brightness all the way up and get the same battery life as the stock battery @ stock freq's.
Hypothetically if you guys get the sprint galaxy nexus @ 1.5ghz would you underclock it to 1.0ghz just because it works "fine"?
You guys need to stop being a slave to "stock" cpu frequencies and your battery. The hummingbird was designed to do 1.2ghz @ 1350mv.

I admit it's just my opinion. ICS "runs fine" at 1ghz. It's "tolerable". But IMO there is noticeable lag so it's not what I would call "good performance". I posted the settings for my phone that I have found to give me acceptable performance for my setup. Stock CPU frequency did not perform acceptably to me, so that's why I said that overclocking is a critical feature.
The UI lag is affected greatly by the CPU clockspeed but that's definitely not the only factor involved. It depends how many widgets you have on your homescreen, how many apps are running in the background, whether those currently running apps are stored on the SD card or not, how fast your SD card is with random reads/writes, your I/O scheduler, and other factors. For example, I noticed a big improvement in responsiveness and loading times simply by switching to noop scheduler (UI felt much snappier than with VR or CFQ). I also store a lot of apps on the SD card so I bought a 32gb Class 4 Sandisk microSD card because benchmarks show it has better 4K random write performance than the stock Samsung 16gb card, and I think that made a big improvement also.
I think we are already pushing the limits of this device simply by running ICS with its greater amount of eye candy and swooshiness. That's before we even start to run backgrounded apps like trillian, twidroyd, juicedefender, batterymonitor, and pandora all simultaneously with gps navigation in the foreground. All of this is doable, even with this phone's single core processor and RAM, but it's much more pleasant to do with an overclocked CPU. I know, because it's what I do with my phone every day. Sure, it nukes the battery, but I don't care because I'll just swap another one in when it dies and I care more about using my phone's capabilities than keeping it alive for 24 hours without charging. When I am out in the woods away from a charger I turn all this off and go into low power mode.
YMMV, of course

The epic touch battery fits in the OG epic just fine just its a little snug. However there are three major reasons why I got it
1. It has 1800mah, 300 more than stock
2. It is made in japan vs china (better battery tech)
3. My year old stock battery is not in good health (remember EF02 that **** got hot
You can find it on amazon for 18$ shippped

I use the Epic Touch battery. I'm not saying anything horrid against overclocking I'm just saying cm9 works for me smooth as butter and I've found no need for it. I don't even get lag playing games like GTA3 or MC3 so I don't have a need to stress the hardware or consume more battery. To each their own but my cm9 runs just fine as is.

Hey there,
i just used Antutu to benchmark my wildfire and was shocked that there were wildfires in the list that scored higher than 1200 points, how is that possible? i want that too
Anyway!
My current score:
907 Points
System:
- CM7 (JIT on, compcache off)
- max. 768Mhz (smartassV2)
- all data on internal space
- supercharged

I run this test just because I was bored. But our phone is ''NOT'' in the list. Its a different phone called wildfire ''S''
But there are many ways that can improve your score on the app (Don't see the point tho as phone is so old and without gpu) try different gov's eg. Performance and you can get a faster sd card eg class 10 (as it collects points for sd reads and writes)
My Antutu score is 932
CM7 build 14 (I find it the most stable one out there)
CPU MAX 768
CPU MIN 748
PERFORMANCE Governor
Compcache 18%
JIT enabled
Surface dithering enabled
Purging of assists enabled

Some Info
you can compare wildfires once you have benchmarked your own, under the ranking category, top at the mo seems to have a score of 6126 but that also has a CPU speed of 1200 MHz otherwise there are more realistic ones further down, but i mannaged 1087 score with my wildfire which is still on a stock ROM lol, but as stated SD card makes a difference, i have installed an 8Gb class 10 samsung and modified the cache. But none the less, i have a lot of apps and not much RAM free so i found my score supprising compared with other wildfires. And remember, benchmarks dont represent ability in day to day use or even heavy use, they just give a theoretical overview.
But if you do want to improve your wildfire with visible results and not just numbers, i would recommend some of the below
A Class 10 Memory Card
Increase the cashe size of the memory card (improves Read/Write) but not too far i have found problems at higher values apps like SD speed boost are nice
Task Killer, automatic ones are good and save you effort :L
Overclock and undervolt with a governor appropriate for your use, this gives massively improved performance on demand and save battery when that performance is not required
New ROM, athough i have not done this personaly there are many a report of speed improvements due to less bloatware on ROM's like cyanogenmod
Move apps to SD not so much a speed thing but if you have a fast card then it saves internal space with no loss in performance
Apps like Optimize toolbox, Set CPU and memory booster helped with these.
so i am sure if i flashed a new ROM i could get my score up to 1100 at least if not further and there are things i have not tried yet so i would not say a score of 1200 is out of reach and you could probably go further, but not 6126 as antutu seems to think :L
if there is anything i have missed please tell me and i will add to the list, hope this helps
Mine tested for fun as I don't give a monkeys about it.

I think mine dropped after I installed many apps, during my "app rush" stage. That was when I was so crazy about apps since I had to limit myself on the Wildfire or I'd have to sacrifice one app to get another lol!
Maybe when I root this phone, after it gets Revolutionary S-OFF (Only option is HTCDev now which I don't trust) I can get TrickDroid or the unofficial CM9 Alpha10!

It's actually for the Novo7 Aurora, but the tablets are practically the same, save for the IPS display on the Aurora.
There's also a Ubuntu and ICS dualboot ROM, but that one does need a hardware keyboard atleast once (Just for the first login, you can get an onscreen one later)
Otherwise, the Elf II did come out recently, but that one doesn't have any ROMs yet :silly:
Seems my problem was the gpu was set to 276mhz Max, changed that to 400mhz and it jumps up a 1000+ points.

So was it underclocked at first or was it the stock clockspeed and you wanted to OC it?
It has a Mali 400 if I'm not mistaken, just downloaded ex tweaks to setup something else and noticed the Max gpu speed was 276 so it must have got underclocked somewhere along the way.

Those of you who are running CM 10.1.3 stable or nightlys can you post scores of benchmarks such as antutu ver 3.3.2 - 3.5, quadrant, 3dmark, androbench?
Want to compare scores from CM 10.1.3 with stock version 2.1.1 to see if there is any major improvement or difference. Also is battery life better, the same or worse comparing CM 10.1.3 to stock?
Also with CM 10.1.3 can you hide navigation buttons to make everything full screen when playing a game or web browsing? can you put the status bar on bottom with navigation buttons so nothing is on top? just curious...
Thank you!
I'm interested to hear this as well.
I have 10.1.3 but have not installed it.
Still running 10.1 6/30 emmc build. no complaints, but if 10.1.3 is an improvement...

So far im pretty happy with how my Nook runs (but its the only tablet ive used and owned) but if there are ways to make it run smother, id like to give it a shot.
Settings > developer options > force GPU rendering.
It forces the gpu to render 2D objects as opposed to the cpu doing it. (I'm assuming)

You're right, only with CM roms can you do that. Be nice to have more options like that on stock. But I'm pretty satisfied with stock so far, with root and 3rd party app install enabled.

Thanks guys for the shots to compare stock 2.1.1 with!
I have to admit my new nook hd+ manufactured I assume not to long ago, has been pretty dam smooth and snappy and no lag what so ever!
In androbench I get some amazing scores since I have a new off the press Toshiba 16gb chip inside. Fast random reads and writes! This helps the nook hd tremendously. Also I use novo launcher, wifi set to sleep after stock 15 minute time frame although need an app to adjust that on stock, everything tweaked as far as I can do in stock and pretty dam good for a 9 inch 1920x1200 tablet with a 6000mah battery that so far after 3-4 full discharges and charges I got 7 hours and 30 minutes screen time using it off and on for 3 days and 17 hours (screen little less than half brightness). Must have a good battery inside as well.
Cannot beat the price for 149.00 dollars plus tax. Also it gets a better 3d score using the PowerVR SGX 544 gpu in quadrant at the native resolution than other tablets with high res screens. Also it beats a Nexus 7 1st generation and the Sero 7 in the 3dmark benchmark on extreme preset (at higher res). Not bad!
Is there a way to tell the manufacturer/details of the 16 GB internal memory? I have already purchased 2 refurb HD+'s and have a 3rd on order. My kids love 'em (and I do too)!

Download Vellamo benchmark from Google Play, you can side swipe the screens and menus in program, one of the screens shows your device in purple and system information and you click or touch that and scroll down the system info and you'll see brand name and revision code of your built in storage.

Hmmmm. I've already run lagfix a couple of times - hope it hasn't caused any damage.
It's a shame there isn't a manufacturer fix for this that can be applied, as is sometimes the case with SSDs.

Hi all,
I've recently installed the overclocked kernel from squid and am having some trouble reaching the same benchmarks that he has hit. I am running stock MM with row 128 I/O and adreno-tz on the GPU. CPU is lionfish with min frequencies 800 on both clusters. I think squid is running CM13.
I consistently score between 680-740 single and 2680-2800 multi. Does this look about right for stock MM with the overlooked kernel?
Any help maximizing this would be greatly appreciated. I know these scores have (probably) very little to do with real-world use but if I can get more out of my device then why not.
Thank you for any insight!

Hey pal. Thanks for your feedback. Nice to see your response. I'll try it out as you suggest. I've been running a bunch of tests and it's looking like I hover around 740-50 single and 2700-50 multi. I've changed the configuration to default squid, so interactive governor and aggressive frequency settings. Needless to say the performance sure is snappy. Hahaha.
I'll likely revert to lionfish 800 on both clusters but this interactive snappiness is tempting...
Exactly 700 and 2700 with the oc kernel, stock brazil mm. Not even kidding. Although i sincerely doubt anything but a "native" extension can accurately measure a device performance, there is too much virtual machine and abstractions between hardware and software. Then again, this limitation applies to almost all apps, eg the normal usecase...

Interactive is a great governor yeah. Thanks for your response regarding the ROM. I hear that CM13 is still a little shaky on the X Play but maybe I'll try the next release just to compare. I'll try a full discharge from 100% with default squid's OC kernel values. If I can still get >7 hours SOT with that setup and snappy performance I'll be thrilled.

This is miniscule difference. It doesn't create a great performance difference between stock and custom Roms. The benchmarks most of the time shows the raw power of the device but the optimisation of the software also is needed.
You can try custom Roms to get extra functionality but there are still bugs in them.

Nicely said. Performance and stability are key for me. Battery life too. Haha. I just love the X Play for that battery. 5 hours SOT and 21%. So lovely.
I had carefully tuned CM13 to get the best performance out of this device, so it and derivatives will give better performance than the defaults in stock. You can see some of my configuration here: https://github.com/moto8916/android_device_motorola_lux/blob/cm-13.0/rootdir/etc/init.target.rc Beyond that, some higher level parts of the ROM are better optimized on custom ROMs than stock, so that also improves performance.

Hey squid,
Looks interesting. I think CM13 is definitely worth a look. I think I'll try the next release. Thanks for explaining the customizations/optimizations you've done.
Frankly, i couldn't care less about some number a synthetic benchmark spits out. The number 1 consideration is how long the battery lasts, then (a long way off) how quickly "heavy" apps such as firefox launch. Last i read CM13 isn't as good as stock at conserving power.

Battery life is quintessential for me, too. I was hoping to strike a balance between performance and battery (hence the Optimal Setup thread) and am still trying to discern what the best setup is to meet my requirements.
I'd like to try a custom ROM at some point, but that's my curiosity more than anything.
Battery life on the X Play can't be beat! That's why I got it.
Moto x play is no slough, I just ran a test between my nexus 6 and MXP,
Most apps actually open faster on the moto x.
