Yeah, install Quarx Kernel, MMXTREM kernel etc.

How do I install the kernel

Flash the zip in recovery (for MMXTREM)

does anyone if it is safe to underclock??
About (122MHz ~ 245MHz)

Probably
It's stable on 122mhz on mine. But it's super slow and laggy. But battery saving

So is it safe???
Or should I just put it to powersave mode??
I heard that it may decrease ur phones battery life. And from others that u need to put it at least to 245MHz so that the system can run!

safe on mine
122mhz works on mine and is very consistent. It never crashed on that frequency. Don't know if it'll work on other phones.

Anyways thanks gonna underclock!!!

I would also say two hundred better safe than sorry
Also battery on mine at eight hundred mega hertz is still eight or nine hours so really its only if you had no charger for longer than that that you would under clock

my phones usually lasts about 2 and a half days!!

I've noticed that the battery level is very unstable. For example the LG Optimus 2x's battery level changes every 1% but on the LG-GT540 it changes every 3-10%

Yes I have noticed that too!!
We should try and fix it!!
That would be great!!

This is a kernel issue. Charging table is not properly written.

Possibly not (as in it won't be impossible to fix)

First thing I'm gonna do when I get my Galaxy S III is...

I'm gonna change that fugly homescreen wallpaper cause I think it looks like crap.

overclock that monster CPU? For which reason if it's just Blazing fast and no lagg at all ? Just to consume more battery?
the first thing i will do is using browser and see how beautifull is surfing web with this incredible device

No reason not to make it faster i say. Not needing something is no reason not to.

Firstly, it's mainly just out of curiosity, I just want to see how far me device can go. Also, take my SGS2 for example, stock 1.2ghz, at the end of the day when I put it in to charge at about 9pm, I am left with about 20%+ battery. In my opinion that is useless battery life, as it is not enough to get through the next day, so it is just being wasted. So to overclock to 1.4 or 1.5ghz on my s2 to increase speed and battery life isn't an issue at all, why shouldn't I gain the extra speed? Same will hopefully apply to the SGS3
I can easily get to 1.6ghz at 1375mV and it's rock stable, but I do notice a battery drain when that high. It's all about personal balance between performance, heat generated by OC'ing and battery, for me 1.5ghz is the sweet spot for all three. Also I do heavily under-volt both cpu & gpu. My GPU isn't overclocked as their isn't a game that taxes it at stock, but it's nice knowing I can OC the GPU perfectly stably & safely to 400mhz from 267mhz and get a sizable performance boost, if I ever need it in the future.

turn it on?

Undervolting/overvolting?

Does any ROM for our old GT540 support undervolting/overvolting?
Thanks!

no -volting.
its something different and for saving some battery juice or extra power.
many other (newer) phones/kernels support it.

if you know how overclockers clock their pc-s , then you should know about volt-mods/overvolting (vdimm,vdroop and etc.)

i think the only "undervolting" our phone can do is change the stock frecuency from 245 to 122 lower is unstable....up is 806 some people a little more or a little less...thast regarding the cpu frecuency in terms of Voltage i think is more than imposible due to inestability.

here is full overview of overvolting and so. : link
but shortly:
overvolting gives more voltage to hardware (cpu in this case) .
more voltage=more overclock , but also alot more heat.
undervolting decreases voltage of cpu, to save battery juice for longer time, but instability occurs @ same clock.
(need to lower cpu clock for more stability).
and also cpu is cooler.

Device randomly freezes in the middle of activities

Sometimes, most often watching videos (it happens while playing games as well) my Nexus 7 will completely seize up and nothing works at all. The sound also freezes at the point it is at as well. This problem has persisted throughout multiple ROMs and kernels so I'm beginning to think it is a hardware issue.
The device will reboot after I hold the power button for a few seconds. Lately it has been happening multiple times every night while I watch videos on different apps (including MXPlayer and YouTube).
I don't know exactly what is going on or what other information I should give, but just ask and I'll provide it. Thanks.

Have you overclocked/underclocked your gpu by any chance?

Sorry about the long time between posts. Winding down here at school.
The clock is at 1.3Ghz.

Charging time after official 4.2.2 update

Hi all
Is it me or charging time has somehow been reduced after the update?
Before the update it usually was good few hrs to charge the device but now it's like super fast about an hrs from 10% to full
Can u gays confirm if its the same for u coz if it isn't I will need to reflash before I f the battery up
Thanks

Yes charging time has been drastically reduced on the HTC One after the 4.2.2 update.
My Galaxy S4 charges up super fast, and one of the big complaints I had with my HTC One was the extremely slow charging time. Looks like HTC took care of that and it charges up just as fast as my S4.
Now if only HTC would fix that damn LED notification light so that it will stay on for more than 5 minutes, the phone would be PERFECT!

Yep much quicker here too.

Good then I thought I was going crazy but as long as everyone else is the same it's ok
Thanks for the replies

It's interesting if HTC have made it quicker to charge? Wanted to protect it so they made it take a long while, but now they have decided it was too slow I guess?

So the Qualcomm Quick Charge is possibly enabled now? If so that's brilliant, I always seem to have found the HO pretty slow at charging.

Confirmed ? Hadn't noticed myself as I usually charge it before I go to bed ...

Confirmed by me too. Charging is faster now, since updated to 4.2.2.

How much different is it now? I wonder why they decided to make the charge shorter.

This is great can't wait to get it on my T-Mobile USA phone. HTC should've enabled quick charge on day one.

Charging time dropped by at least half for me but I start to wonder if it's gonna affect the battery life coz of course we can't replace the thing
Just to claryfy it was not so much the system upgrade but new firmware I think new hboot and all
I was before on android revoluton hd 4.2.2 with 1.44 hboot and did not notice quick charge but after upgrading to official with new hboot it all changed

I'm pretty sure the change would be in the kernel. Has the 4.2.2 kernel source been released yet? Can someone confirm this?

Source is not out yet.

Wow, by half. That's great. Finally it won't discharge while I'm using and charing. Though wasn't the slow charging allegedly to protect the hard to replace battery?

Yes that was the case.
Now we'll have complaining about losing this.

Reducing the charging time by half is great. I normally charge it while going to bed, but some times I need a quick 30-45 min charge in the afternoon if I used it a lot during the day. This would help a lot of people for sure.
The battery life expectancy isn't worrying I guess.

Please use the 4.2.2 General Chat thread.
