I just flashed to assonance and there is this thing called voltage control. Have no idea what it does.. anyone know?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Allows you to tweak your voltage settings on your phone.. and controls overclocking.
... Have to let the experts tell you how to tweak the settings though.
I'd also be interested to know if there is a guide or something to tell me what all those settings are!
Someone should make a tutorial/guide on it...

Well iv had my Zio for a few months now and even with the 2.2 Update sometimes it seems to slow down and stutter.
I have been doing some research on Rooting my phone to get wifi tethering and the ability overclock my phone for better performance.
Now so far the Zio community on here seems to be very small so i dont expect an answer very fast so here is my question.
Has anyone with a Zio Managed to root there phone and overclock it? im not talking about some CRAZY overclock. im thinking in the 50-100MHz range. if so how has the performance increased? or has the performance Decreased? how is the battery life?
I have attempted such by manually editing some CPU files. I was able to successfully adjust the governor and changed from the stock 95% to 100% CPU threashold.

So far I would say its a little faster. I definitely see a difference when opening apps and especially with the 2.3 launcher from the market.

Could you list where the CPU files are located m8?

If your phone is rooted you can use a number of overclock apps, but they use parameters based on te phone the zip is 122.88 to 600 mhz

@matrix
What were your exact editing lines? I forgot which thread it was where you answered this question before.
I basically changed the governor to performance and threashold too 100. Actually overclocking the ZIO is giving me trouble when I try to go higher than 600000
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
Correction. Governor must be set to on demand to edit the threashold.

You wont be able to get true over clocking until theres been kernel source released. Has that happened yet? New to this device.
If so, and someone is willing to do something with adb, I can work on getting an overclock kernel for you guys, but I wont be able to test it myself so it could be a bit dangerous.
As long as it isn't clocked any faster than 6.5 or 7... 7 would be risky.

You cannot over clock the Zio at the moment. The Kernel does not support it. You can use an app to set it to 600mhz all the time. It usually stays at 600mhz on its on.

which is why I said if we had kernel source, I would work on it for you guys. Keep an eye out for it.
Once we ave source, if one of you can pull your current config for me, which i'll explain once its available, it shouldn't be too hard to clock up a little.

Of course. Wouldn't let that go by unnoticed.
There is a overclock widget available that works great. When screen is locked it downclocks to what ever you set it too. Once unlocked it goes to 600 MHz.

but im gonna try and bump that 600 number up a little bit. Just need source code.
Tried to overclock witb droid. Fixed some permissions with clockwork it opened and ran just like setcpu. The app said the overclock module couldn't be opened because my device wasn't listed. Obviously.
Kyo M6000 Rooted with NoAds or Bloatware.
yeah the module is gonna be device specific.
I can't wait to see what this phone can do overclocked!
I had the Droid Incredible, iPhone 3G and neither could play the videos that I encoded for the ZIO without stuttering. The ZIO is playing the video files without stuttering with default player!
MP4/H.264/AVC/AAC LC
Video
800x480/4:3/29.97/1536
Audio
48100/2/160
I was just testing these settings on full movies just to see how bad the ZIO would stutter, to my surprise it played those as if it wanted more!
I will not keep those settings, as a full movie is over 1.5GB!
I might keep the video settings and use different audio settings, because the quality of the videos kick major butt!
I will be the beta tester for your Overclocking kernel option94!
I think it would do 750Mhz no problems, which would make this phone a beast! I wonder what the video sub system is in this unit?
Hey im running talon 0.3.1 1200 with 340 memory.i currently using control freak with settings at sio,1200max,-50,& set to 400.ondemand.can someone suggest a tweak to my settings to improve performance or battery life.so far settings work good but I want to make it better

Hi guys I have a i9000 rooted with custom from and I wanted to improve performance and battery life can that be done by setting the CPU speeds or overclocking as I believe its called any help would be great cheers guys
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
If you need an app, try NSTools.
I got it I was just wondering what the best settings would be
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Every device is different for over clocking because of the manufacturing process just make sure the setting "apply at boot" isn't ticked while trying out different settings then test the settings and make sure its stable then if it works for you you can check apply at boot overclocking will decrease battery life though if you want to increase battery life you will need to under volt your phone (this is assuming your kernel supports overclocking and undervolting)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Yea I can do both just don't really wanna mess about with it until I know more about it.. am I right to assume undervolting would reduce performance
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
No I thought this at first as well, the performance remains the same the only way it will result in performance issues is if you do it to much the phone will become unstable but as I said before test the settings before saving

Hi everyone, as i have been starting to fiddle around with governors i discovered that my setting won't stick and I'll have to reset them after rebooting, what could be the solution to it?
Also after researching it seem the better governor is smartassV2? Should i change any voltage or GHz for balanced performance and battery life?
Thanks all for helping out yet again:beer:

what app that u use to set governor? do u tick 'set at boot'?

What app are you using to do this? Try trickstermod or daemon controller
And have a look at the guide linked in my signature, that might answer your questions about overclocking and undervolting
You'll have to look on a pc or on a browser on your phone

Ah right, knew I forget something. I am using vipervivo ROM with redux 0.7
The venom tweak is the one i used to change governors, and yes i did tick the setting to apply setting on boot.
Thanks mark I'll have a look at your post to decide on oc and UV

maybe u can try apps like trickstermod like mark said or SetCPU.
hope that help.

Never, ever, ****ing ever set your clock speed apps to set on boot.
Why? If you set up a frequency that your device cannot handle it will set these frequencies as soon as your phone hits the loading screen. You will not be able to boot your device as the clock settings will kick in immediately and freeze your system.

So basically wt it meant is u want to the settin keep g u set after every reboot..
If you dont check that option the settings will revert to default setting when u reboot

In case you are using setcpu then there is an option on main tab which u shud check..
It says keep the setting stable on boot..

Most roms running ics or greater have built in safety, so if the phone force closes set on boot will not apply. It is perfectly safe to set your governors and I/o on these roms. Check for info about current Rom you are running, if it has this feature go nuts and test the limits of your phone . Do your research peoples, can't stress that enough, find out what you can about your phone and current rom/radio/kernal and you won't hurt your phone. Fail to do so and risk bricking your device, its that simple.
