My Alpine (XDA 2i) has a CPU PXA272/C0 which means, the CPU has an old C0 stepping. Some devices have C5 stepping. So my question is:
How can I upgrade my device? Is this a pure hardware change or is it possible with an SW- or. ROM-upgrade?

maybe it's ssome hardware difference e.g. like G3 and G4 version of Prophet/Wizard
So there is no way to upgrade?

Is it possible to download software to overclock the m700 like you can on other HTC devices
hi,
if you search along this forum you will find the anwser.
try to search "XCPUScalar"
i've got mine fully working at 500Mhz.
XCPUScalar is for intel PXA CPUs, trinity uses samsung cpu and XCPUscalar does nothing to it. Your 500MHz it's just a placebo effect.

Hi,
xcpuscalar has no effect on the samsung processor of the trinity, if you make a search about, you'll find many info...
afaik the only software that works with samsung is pocket hack master but is not stable and often crash

Just have to be reasonable, think 500mhz is a little bit too much...
And I wouldn't wanna kill batterylife for those few extra megahertz's...
Just a question, I know that for a desktop some extra mHz can mean alot, but what would the benefit be for a PPC?

Right, but if you underclock you buddy ( i.e. 251 mhz ) you can *increase* battery life ;-)

So nobody wants to help us over and underclocking our devices?!
"Just a question, I know that for a desktop some extra mHz can mean alot, but what would the benefit be for a PPC?"
without having all the numbers then i doubt it will mean that much as interfaces for different types of memory and interfaces would likely become bottleneck fast

I don't even think pocket hack master really does the overclocking on the samsung cpu. Last time I check, there's no official support for that cpu.
Nevertheless, I tried it - and tested it with benchmarking softwares - and it seems that it may even degrade performance!
Then I uninstalled it right away!
How come the Kaiser's Hero port runs faster than Hero runs on my phone?

Maybe it has something to do with the fast that the Tilt has 256mb of RAM while the G1 has only 192. But that's my guess.
CORRECTED DUE TO MIS-READ AND MISUNDERSTOOD INFORMATION.
Most likely the reason above. ANyone know the specs of the processor?

G1:
Processor Qualcomm® MSM7201A™, 528 MHz
Tilt:
Qualcomm MSM7200, 400Mhz processor
Ref: http://www.htc.com/us/support_select_product.aspx
I actually stand corrected.
Here are the ACTUAL specs...
G1:
CPU: 32 bit Qualcomm MSM7201A
CPU Clock: 528 MHz
CPU Core: ARM1136EJ-S
Instruction set: ARMv6
Level 1 cache: No information
Level 2 cache: No information
Memory, Storage capacity
RAM type: mobile DDR SDRAM
RAM capacity: 192 MiB
ROM type: Flash EEPROM
ROM capacity: 256 MiB
Tilt:
32 bit Qualcomm MSM7200
400 MHz
ARM1136EJ-S
ARMv6
No information
No information
SDRAM
128 MiB , 101.38MiB accessible
Flash EEPROM
256 MiB, 124.66MiB accessible
Not supported
124.66 MiB
Not supported
So it seems that I was mistaken in my previous and premature post above and it seems that the G1 has more RAM.
Perhaps it's because Hero at this time requires data to be read off the SDCARD which is slower then build in memory?

but isnt it running on top of the native windows mobile system?
No, they're running it completely off the SDCard.
As far as running on top of WM, it doesn't, it just kicks WM out of RAM and takes over.
Hi, just bought a new Galaxy S III (i9305)..how do I check my CPU, GPU etc? I've downloaded quick system info from market and it says the following:
Memory: Total: 1.75GB Free: 0.90GB Idle: 336MB
Processor: ARMv7 Processor rev 0 (v7I) Dual-Core 1400MHz
is this the right phone? I mean isn't the processor suppose to be quad core?? (Sorry if the question sound stupid its just there are so many version of this phone each has different hardware and I wanted to get the best one with Quad Core processor and 2GB Ram)
Thanks

thanks...it shows the original specs!! seems like u have a i9305 too gonna need a lot of help as soon as I start customizing it but first I need to test it for couple of days making calls, sending txt, wifi etc cuz I've heard the LTE version has network issues. thanks again
So, i got curious and downloaded the "CPU z" application to have a look at my phones specs in detail. I found that my processor was the "4x ARM Cortex A7 @1.19Ghz". however the advertised processor is the "1.20GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400" now, is this just a pre-manufacturing model name and I'm just being stupid or is something fishy going on here?
Also i find it odd that the actual processor in my device is clocked at 1.19 when i in fact was under the idea that it's a 1.20 clock speed. I'm sure it wouldn't make that much difference but still seem odd?
could someone put my mind at rest and tell me that I'm just being an amateur and to go back into my android noobie cave or can someone confirm that in fact something fishy is going down.
thanks!

Hi guys !
I've been trying to add overclocking to Android One, I'm able to add another frequency (both Overclock and Underclock) but I'm able to test it, the 1391 MHz was the stablest overclock frequency I could get. Decreasing frequency lower than 590 MHz makes booting slower (I don't know why).
Check the screenshot, I'll report more news once I get things finished.
I have attached the mt_cpufreq.c just in case anyone have a kernel source and want to try the overclock.
EDIT: It seems max frequency can't be changed since it's hardcoded to 1.3 GHz, it keeps jumping to 1.3 GHz when screen is turned off, but the frequency sticks when phone is rebooted, but not on screen off.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
EDIT2: It seems that mt_ptp also controls DVFS, which is interesting. This means we have to edit two files and disable restoring frequency to its default table.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
EDIT3: I found this in mt_cpufreq.c :
Code:
static unsigned int g_max_freq_by_ptp = DVFS_F0;
Which is defined in the same file, the DVFS_F0 is :
Code:
#define DVFS_F0 (1300000) // KHz
The DVFS_F0 is 1.3 GHz, this might explain why the max frequency keeps jumping to 1.3 GHz when screen off. But this is just an assumption.
I've added mt_ptp.c just in case anyone want to checkout and help the development.

Click to collapse
Interesting
I had given up all hopes of low level modifications such as over clocking /underclocking/under volting and kernel level wake gestures like double tap to wake etc... This gives me something to look at. Thank you
It seems that max freq can't be set to other than 1300 MHz / 1.3 GHz.
Can anyone here using CM12.1 confirm this bug ? Since it might be because of the ROM but I'm unsure here, it can be either ROM or my custom built kernel.
BTW, 470 MHz isn't fully implemented, the kernel refuses to use it. It might be because I haven't defined it in the volt switch function.
EDIT: Another possibility, it seems on mt_ptp, the clock are either hardcoded or defined in other file. So I have to say that overclocking might be still far away to be achieved.

GPU is another thing here, it's still too hard to OC CPU itself.
Does the Android One uses MT6582 or MT6582M?(Are there more differences between them other than GPU frequency? MT6582: [email protected]; MT6582M: [email protected])

MT6582 I believe. I never checked but on kernel the chip folder (/arch/arm/mach-) is mt-6582
Can it be used on a 5" screen and MT6582M?

Depends, does your phone kernel source exist ? If yes, then you're free to try. If not, then don't.
BTW, please don't think this is just a 'install the .c file and get overclock'. It needs many work, and such, I advise you to have at least some advanced knowledge of Linux Kernel.

How about the you underclock in order to save battery as 1.3 quad core is not that necessary for mild usage.

low clock means less processing power so it lags if i set both minimum and max frequency to 200mhz else it is fine[emoji23]
