Aparently the CPU may only be clocked to 800Mhz........
If you got this from the Au website, Whirlpool, than I think they are talking about the iPhone 4, not the Galaxy S
well it's from the galaxy s thread and one of the guy who's doing the testing and stuff for samsung says this......definitely not iphone.
Guess just wait and see when it's released I suppose
huh? wat are you guys talking about? its 1ghz cpu
forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1409745&p=58#r1152 is the link to the post where the user suggests it is 800mhz underclocked.
Yh, sorry, was reading a thread where they were talking about the iPhone being underclocked, just reading more, it seems it may be the case.
Will mean battery last longer, not such a bad thing, as long as it doesn't effect any of the performance of the phone
If they say 1Ghz then it is 1Ghz or else they're going to have a lawsuit on their hands. Nothing in between(except of course scaling).
I have the galaxy s and im pretty sure its 1ghz.. at least system panel tells me its 1ghz but singapore set are all 16gb model.
information from system panel:
ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7I)
bogomips 797.90 (may vary)
min clock 100mhz
max clock 1000mhz
on Nexus one using pershoot kernel but cpuset at 245mhz - 998mhz, it shows:
ARMv7 processor rev 2 (v7I)
bogomips 662.40 (may vary)
min clock 245 mhz
max clock 998mhz
so maybe the 8gb are down clocked?
Doubt the 8Gb version would be clocked lower. Thanks for posting your findings!
It's just the power of forums and the internet, allowing mis-information to spread at the speed of light
lol yep, looks like he was confused at the sliding clock speed....
when i ran quandrant standard it read armv7 processor rev 2 , max 1000 min 100
set frequency 800
is that normal

It's 1 GHz, I checked the clock frequency with a monitoring application and it's dynamic but when required it clocks up to 1 GHz.

thanks for clearing this up

Wait, what?
The iPhone 4 may be clocked at 800mhz?
Can someone give source on this?

I don't have a link to that claim, but I think it was Gizmodo in their testing of the iPhone 4 and iPad noted the iPad did feel faster and the web browser rendered pages faster, despite both using the A4 processor. They hypothesised that it is the same architecture CPU in both, but different clock speeds.
After all, to get 10 hours out of the iPad the teardowns and x-ray scans show about 80% of the volume inside is all battery. If the iPhone 4 and iPad had the same processor, you'd think the iPhone's battery would be pretty bad considering the far smaller volume (although smaller screen not sucking as much power).
Wouldn't be surprising. After all, the Motorola Milestone / Droid has a mild underclock, as does the Acer Liquid to preserve battery life.
Probably cheaper for Apple to only have to manufacture 1 chip (the A4), but clock at different speeds appropriate to each device's battery life.
Apple doesn't focus as much on specs though, more that the user interface feels fast and smooth. If it achieves that purpose no need to worry about numbers, whereas since we have so much choice of handsets on Android specs do make a difference for us to know depending on our needs (eg: price vs performance vs battery).
My Samsung Galaxy S is running at 800mhz it sucks... i flashed it last night with the final build of 2.2 I9000XXjP6 for the Galaxy does anybody no how i can overclock it to 1ghz thanks People
The Galaxy S has a 1 GHz CPU. However, the clock speed is lowered while not needed to save battery life, just like on any modern PC. By default it is using the conservative governor.
The iPhone4 never was supposed to get a 1 GHz CPU. Apple never disclosed the number. But those who made benchmarks estimated the clock speed at about 800 MHz since is is about 20% slower than the iPad.
There is a Galaxy Lite version in some other countries that only maxes out at 800 Mhz
i think the guy reviewing the phone got it mixed up with that

He might have got mixed up, but the final 2.2 build for the Samsung Galaxy S is maxed out at 800 MHz for some stupid reason…. I’m going to flash it tonight again with a earlier build of 2.2 as I did some bench test and its only scoring a measly 900 points with the latest firmware installed.. Were as before it was scoring well over 2k…
According to the review of Anandtech, the Mali T760 GPU on our Galaxy S6 has a unused 852 Mhz clock state. Normal speed now is 772 Mhz. Hopefully, this can be enabled in future in custom kernels to better drive those 2k displays. I wonder why they didn't enable it default as the SoC on 14nm should handle the temperature. More speed Ahead i hope.
"There's also a suspicion that Samsung was ready to go higher to compete with other vendors though, as we can see evidence of an 852 MHz clock state that is unused. Unfortunately deeply testing this SoC isn’t possible at this time as doing so would require disassembling the phone"

That's cool! Maybe they didn't enable it to safe battery?

Perhaps, with custom kernel we can maybe turn off 2 A57 cores and ramp up to MAX GPU 852 Mhz, that'll be sweet.
Actually the test on the battery page proved that the GPU is throtteling when it targets the maxium frequency
"The one major issue here that is visible from the FPS vs time graph is that Samsung continues to struggle with graceful throttling as the GPU attempts to always target maximum performance, which causes a strong rise and fall in frame rate as the GPU goes through periods of high and low clock speeds determined by the thermal governor."

I think this only happens on sustained push by the benchmark app, i doubt it'll be same behaviour on real world usage. But in any case custom kernels will provide various tweaks and alternative governors to try.
They have also hidden 4 frequencies on the larger cores. They are at 2.2 even though they can go up to 2.5.

DVFS is sadly in effect all the time limiting the frequency. You can check it yourself by opening CPU-Z in multiwindow (only way to display frequency of the mali gpu) and running a game. Only thing that is going to let users run customised settings is xposed with DVFS disabler + custom kernel.

Hi all, I'm facuarmo (Facundo Montero), the person behind SomeFeaK. I would simply like to know if someone is interested on the release of a public version of the SomeFeaK kernel with some experimental features that might be harmful and dangerous for the device, I know some people simply buys devices to test them and kill 'em ASAP, and I thought they might have some fun with this.
Some of the features include:
- CPU: up to 2.11 GHz.
- GPU: up to 750 MHz.
Please post your opinion here.
Hi friend, my opinion is that even if you manage to reach those frequencies in a stable way, you will not achieve higher performance.
Overclocking is only useful if stability and performance are achieved.
To achieve higher frequencies and higher performance, higher voltage is needed.
As the voltage and frequency increases, the temperature increases, so a better cooling system is needed, otherwise overclocking is useless.
I think the most you can achieve with the stock voltage is CPU 1400 mhz and GPU 450 mhz, you have to check Qualcomm specifications.
Greetings.
I'll definitely give it a test.
This is my second device, my main is a Pixel XL so don't really care what happens to it unless it doesn't explode and kill me or it catches fire and burns me?
Hi,
Just got new android headunit, this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000808902548.html model T3-CP. advertised as 4-core ALL WINER T3 1.5GHz Cortex A7. But cpu-z says that processor is 1.2Ghz and actually runs on 1.0 Ghz. Unit works mainly as adverticed and expected, just a little bit slow but just wondering is there way to change cpu speed to 1.2Ghz which should be actual cpu speed? Also wondering what is actual os version on headunit? Kernel 4.9.118 says it is Android 9.0 but api level 27 says it's 8.1? Also does anyone know how to find developer options on those Prelingcar headunits? Far as i know it should be quite popular brand? Thanks
If you read the Aliexpress description carefully, it says it is a Android 8.1 with 1 GB RAM. The kernel version cannot be used to derive the Android version.
Yes, the Android Settings version information is faking to be Android 10 and 2 GB RAM. Never trust such a screen on these Chinese HUs.
CPU-Z is using the kernel interfaces to find out max CPU frequency and current frequencies of the 4 cores. Note that the kernel adjusts core frequencies on the fly, dependant on the CPU load. So you will not see 1.2 GHz often and should see lower frequency typically.
Actually device has 2gb ram, atleast displayed by cpu-z. Cheaper model T3 has 1gb, but this is T3-CP. Yes i know that unit do not have android 10 even it says so, but just wondering what version it actually has.
