just curious really as my phone never gets warm or anything running at 768mhz the battery life is also pretty good.
hey,
i don´t think so, because in the worst case your phone will take damage. But this ~770 mhz are about 250 more then before. Im happy with this xDDD
that is true haha, i just dont see it doing much harm if the phone will run stable higher at the same voltage or the tiniest bit higher
No, that's the limit of the MSM7225. (Achieved by adjusting the PLL to its max, any higher will overrun the limits of the chip, and cause it to most likely fail)
i would like to know, if its very bad for the phone, if you let it permanently run with full speed. Ok, if it will get very hot.. thats clear, but is it bad if you have the 77mhz and it is for example in silent mode, or when you listen to some music. Should you ever take some possible speed away, if its not need? (thx)
The hardware life will probably be reduced. By how much, it cannot be said definitively, but, I am pretty sure that by the time the hardware fails because of overclocking, the phone will have been retired long back.
What you are requesting (Dynamically changing speed) is exactly what Speed Governors (Performance, Internative, OnDemand etc) do. If you are on CM7, use Smartass Governor, because it's the "smartest". If not, then use Interactive governor.
i use ginger yoshi... and sometimes it sais that the sd was removed. Could overclock be a reason for this?
I dont think so. I got the same issue once, and formatting the SDCard fixed it.
ok i will try it thanks

I have a sense rom on the wildfire, so I will try Interactive Governor. Do I still need SetCPU in order to use it?

To use overclocking and governers on sense roms, oc kernel and application like setcpu are must. Setcpu has governers too.

Yes, it does, and it is overclocked to 710 MHz, by default.
hi guyz, i have a little question for you
does someone have an hd2 with android witch is overclocked to over 1ghz? 1.5ghz too? and, is it a warried operation or cpu has a low overhead in that situation?
3rd and last question, if i put my hd2 in 1.5ghz mode, and force a bench test, may i broke my hd2 with going upper than cpu Tjunction or there's a system protection witch shuts down all the hardware else the cpu is too close to Tjunction? (like normally pc cpu)
i don't know if snapdragon has system protection, so, i don't want to try to fuse my hd2 (it's my main phone)
and, for users who whant to know, yep, i'm using wp7 because it's smoother than android, but, if i try to use android with that overlock, may it can be smooth like wp7, maybe
and, please, don't say that android is smooth, because it has some micro freeze in the continuity of the animation, and i hate that
thank you for your answers

You can set your clock to max, but make a profile to downclock your cpu speed to ~500 MHZ when it heats up.

oh, you could make a profile with downlcloking when cpu goes to a specific temperature?
nice, what's the tjunction of snapdragon? is 50°C too hight?
not sure, to be honest, I don't overclock my device. too scared to do so :/
but when I did overclock it I set the temperature to 41-42 Celsius.
you can tell that I got a lot of high temp warnings, safe is better than sorry.

different builds use different kernels, and each support different max CPU speeds. If the kernel supports overclocking, the developer usually mentions than in the first post. Note that Some kernels/builds do not support any kind of overclocking, so the max CPU speed would be ~988 MHz
Hi, I have a question!
I'm absolutely happy with my HD2 but I'd like something that the performance increases.
Is there a possibility to overclock the GPU? Cpu is yes to either 1.2 GHz or 1.5 GHz but the power play in is not very noticeable so I would appreciate if you could overclock the gpu order to get more performance out there.!
know her as a possibility?
would answer me happy!
there is an app on the market that allows for GPU overclocking , i didnt use it personally just search overclock in the market and look at the different results . I have no problem with the performance of CPU overclocking , i always thought the CPU was the one in charge of graphics rendering .
Isn't it SOC? As you overclock cpu gpu is overclocked also?

Good point . But couldn't that lead to more problems ? Too high of gpu could cause failure in stability but the CPU can handle the high oc ?

Hi, how can i overclock my tf300t (Clean rom 2.5 oveclock 1.6ghz) to 2.0 Ghz? i read something in the forum but there isn't any kind of guide, i want know if the tablet is stable with this frequency, and if i risk something.
thanks

Why would you need to overclock so high? Do you want it to explode! xD
Seriously though, would probably advise against it. It's like a whole 700/800 MHz higher than it's meant to run at stock. I'd say it would be very unstable, and probably wouldn't get very far battery-life-wise. 1.6GHz really not enough :/

1.6ghz is ok? or i'll risk something?
I did that speed already. But it is very very unstable. random reboots within 10 minutes of use. also the battery life is very low. and the whole tablet is to hot.
i only was using it to see how fast it could go. that was the max. i am at Cutom Rom - 07/10/2012 - [email protected] Edition V02 - The Ultra Fast Rom - based on last Asus Firmware 10.4.2.13 at this moment.
this is very stable. balanced speed is 1.3 and thats oke. Normal performance speed is 1.6 but i only use that when playing games. You dont need those high speeds for daily use.
If you have the financial means to buy a new tablet - you can try all the time to work on this frequency.
With 1,6ghz i'll risk to break the tablet?
i used 2.0ghz about a week daily use. But now im lowered it to 1.8ghz and it is stable my everyday use. and battery lenght is very good maybe better than stock (i made undervoltage, so cpu uses -50mv less power in any speed than normaly/stock )1.8ghz use 1150mv and lowest speed use 775 mv)

well, if you raise voltage up it may help, but i thing the problem is, that every tablet cpu is "diffrent" than other. This i mean, that these cpu is specsed in other speed than 1.6, 1,8 or 2.0ghz, and some invidiuals might work good in these higher speeds, some get randon reboots / freeze, or some of cpu:s dont even boot higher speeds. (i found out that when few people test my kernel, and it not even booted. And someone it will work fine.) This thing can "cross" by made kernel force cpu speed 1.0ghz at bootup (and i made this my kernel)
Also these tf300 tablet is manufactured atleast couple of diffrent cpu type /cpu id, so kernel have to had support all of these overclocking
It just like computers, some cpu can overclock higher than others, and if you go too high you need extra cooling, and in tablets, it is not possible, like normal pc's
*Most of this is my conclusion only, it may not be 100% accurate truth, but this how i see this thing. And if someone knows better etc, you can correct me *

Well im not home right now, so i dont have any 2.0ghz or 1,8ghz kernel with me, i have only 1.7ghz oc kernel, so you can test it if you want. But just like always, im not taking any responsibility, so test /use it with own risk. https://www.dropbox.com/s/vvmti4knwkeflde/Nixu_Kernel_OC_1700_v0.1_alpha.zip
i'm afraid now loool, what would happen exactly?
after flashing the kernel is locked to the screen asus, does not want to start
That won't happen I flashed it

The way the clock frequencies are done on this phone, the kernel has no control to overclock.
I asked the developer of ElementalX and also checked to see if thermal-engine existed.
No dice. No overclock.
Only GPU overclocking
So there in no known method of overclocking either Snap 845 or 855 CPUs, right? (i mean throgh software/kernel)
I've never seen the point of overclocking especially with latest chipsets

Is not possible, the CPU frequency tables are stored inside something called "TrustZone", basically the bootloader, and no one outside of Qualcomm has the ability and the tools to control or make changes in that area of the processor.

Even rooted? ...how very interesting... 0_0
This means not only that we can not overclock (and this must also mean voltage table is ..off the table), but also we can not "set" a certain min/max frequency, right? Let's say i want to have a min/max of 2.8 ghz, it can't be done through kernel

Actually you can. It requires a Kernel that supports Overclocking. As of now there is no Kernel for the 6T that supports CPU Overclocking. Smurf has GPU OC but not CPU. Besides, the 845 is already a beast so I dunno why would you want to OC
I think me and more features will be driven by the chipsets themselves and will use a Trust Zone not accessible from the kernel (like widevine).
What is sure is that many CPU clock parameters are not accessible, that's why only GPU OC is present. This have been discussed in different kernel threads.
And the real question is why OC on those fast CPU, just to empty faster the battery and warm the phone in winter?

Isn't related to root or unroot, It's a limitation set at a lower level, lower than the operating system or the kernel.
You can modify the ramdisk to set the Max/Min frequencies, but those values must be within the stock values of the processor, I mean, you can't create a new frequency, you should use one that already exists.

Oh, so min/max can be adjusted? That's something at least. Sometimes the CPU assesses wrongly the speed needed to properly run an app (a very CPU heavy one) so restricting the CPU to lower the frequency provides the best performence possible on that hardware.
And yes even a powerful Soc like 845 and even 855 are pushed to the limits by certain apps.

Yes and no, OOS applies boosts from the userspace, I mean that although you limit the frequency of the processor, in certain circumstances that limit can "break" (I don't use custom roms on this device, so I don't know about it, but probably the same thing happens).
This is interesting. I want to look. Into tz and see what I can find
