Hey guys im new in this forum, I flash my galaxy tab P1000N with the new cm9 rom(ICS) with the new kernel of humberos (22/01/2012) and i never change the oc of the tab. i'm wondering if someone know recommend me set up the oc and how to. im root user.
with the voltage control app i saw these:
I/o Scheduler: sio CPU GOVERNOR: ondemand
MIN: 200Mhz
MAX: 1000Mhz
i hope learn more about my tab
I am using the setCPU app. It is free to XDA members do a search in the forums and you will find it. I found that I have crashes when I set it to 1.4 gHz though. So I keep it at 1.2gHz.
you have to set proper voltages,
somewhere in the cm9 thread you can find them
since the changes i had no problems with 1,4ghz
edit: i use "Cpu Master free"
tyyyy the new kernel fix the 1.4ghz freeze, run it and lagfree scaling... im flying with this, they fix the slowest browser and other things
Thanks l080.
Hi everyone!
I have one question, what is the most stable config. of your device including OC of the CPU and GPU, overvolting and undervolting, governors and VM heap size?
I have CM9 ICS 4.0.3. with devils kernel, in NSTools enabled deep sleep, OC-ed to 1350MHz CPU and 10% LiveOC GPU, Voltages are default, RAM is set to Hard gaming with 64Mb of VM in RAM Manager PRO. Governors are deadline and ondemand (I´ve had cfq and smartassv2 before).
What is most interesting to me is voltages..as I´ve read somewhere that that is the most important part in stability of system running OC-ed settings. How can you accomplish that? Tell me your examples.
Hi there, I use last nightly cm9, sgs is OC till 1,3 and i think it's perfect. Everything is open quick, all games are work stable and fast without freezes. I don't see difference between 1,3 and 1,5 OC. Regards !
Hi, thanks for your reply!
I would disagree, there is a huge difference between 1.3 and 1.5 as it is between 1.3 and 1GHz in the way of speed and handling heavy staff. What is different is that your device heat rises much faster on higher clocks than of those default.
My main concerns about this is because I want to be able to play all the new games (to be specific: Nova 3 , I can play multiplayer but single player allways crashes after few seconds)..and so that is why I wanted to share my settings with all of you, and you also share your settings.
The key to higher clocks speed is voltages, but I have no knowledge about it.
When I normal use phone I don't see any difference between 1,3 and 1,5 maybe it's my sgs charm It is as quickly as possible. When I oc to 1,5 it often freez
Well, that depends on what you mean by "normal use" ..but, no doubt that your phone or any other is much smother when OC-ed.
Hello all, today I will be showing you how to speed up your Nook Color a bit... these methods should work for CM9/CM10/CM10.1/Paranoid Android/etc., but I personally found these out while running PA ICS. The apps you may need to make your phone faster are Ram Manager (Free OR Pro) and No Frills CPU Control (In the case that your ROM doesn't have overclocking in settings). Basically, using these "tweaks" (minus overclock, as whenever I flash a ROM the first thing I do is overclock it), I went from a painfully slow (as in, I was ready to go back to Gingerbread) device to a somewhat faster device. I've seen huge differences in launching games and apps especially, and opening to app drawer seems to be smoother also.
CPU Overclock
Either using No Frills CPU Control or the built-in overclock, set your max CPU speed to the highest on the list (not exceeding 1200, but it shouldn't show anything above that anyhow). Change your governor to either Ondemand or Performance (I personally use Ondemand and have no problems with it). Most of you are probably already overclocked though, so please don't look at me like I'm stupid.
Swap Space
Open up RAM Manager and there should be an option to change your swap space at the bottom. I changed mine to about 48 and am content with that, although I must add it may make your SD card's life shorter. This will increase your RAM, thus allowing you to have more apps open at once.
Force GPU rendering
Open Developer Options in your settings app and check "Force GPU Rendering"... I'm guessing this is one of the biggest factors to my tablet becoming smoother, as from research it helps lower end devices achieve a better framerate, although it may decrease your battery life. Also, I cannot guarantee every app will run great with this. I tested a game (Dynamite Jack) with this setting enabled and it wasn't too shabby at all! But yes, I can definitely see a difference in the overall speed of my Nook Color.
Please tell me how these work for you
I tried these settings, but unfortunately didn't perceive any performance improvement.
Good call on RAM manager. Hadn't seen that before, its going on my NC and RAZR now
Can anyone tell me a good reason for that RAM Manager app to have the permissions it does? Location, Identity, and full network access?
Does NOT work. All this app " no frills CPU" does is provide a GUI front end for the settings already found for our nook color using CM 10+ in its "performace" settings. Also this app does not provide over clocking above our set 1100 MHz. You will need a custom over clocking kernel for the encore for this. Check over on the CM 10 kernel thread n the development section.
Hi guys!
I'm on eXistenZ 3.0, and everything's perfect, but i wanted to know how can i use the 'overclocking' settings? Do you know an optimal frequency?
Or what exactly can i do with that?
I'm just curious

Interesting that you should ask. Coming from windows/intel chips, where overclocking is going beyond the highest value set at the PC bios to speed up the computer (thus generating more heat), I come to understand that "overclocking" in the android world is either to increase the lowest setting or decrease the highest setting for optimal performance (basically to save battery or reduce heat). In android, there is no way to increase the set highest value that I can see...
Of course, I stand to be corrected by long time android users here (I just came into android in Feb this year)

Do you want to Overclock the SoC itself or tweak the other options such as the Low Memory Killer, SD Card Read Ahead, etc?
Since I'm running the stock kernel (my bootloader is relocked), I cannot overclock the SoC
I usually use:
Governor: ondemand
I/O Scheduler: deadline
But
Governor: interactive
I/O Scheduler: deadline
Would sometimes deliver higher benchmark scores
With regards to the Low Memory Killer, I'm satisfied with the stock settings but try to experiment with the other presets as you please.
As with the SD Card Read Ahead, I've selected 2048kb as it is said to be the optimal value. You can try to use benchmarks to determine what works best with your sd card.

Also, if you really want to overclock your SoC; you can choose to unlock your bootloader and flash DoomLord's DoomKernel. :3
Remember to backup your TA Partition first before doing this step as unlocking your bootloader WILL cause you to lose DRM Keys (bye bye Bravia Engine 2 and Download Music Info). You can search for BackupTA 9.10.
DoomKernel allows you to overclock up to 1.8GHz, provides you with a plethora of Governors, Schedulers, and other performance enhancements. e.g. Samsung exFAT Driver, etc.

I see - there is a real 'overclocking' after all...
Thanks.
Everything is a bit new to me, new android user too. (i'm on locked bootloader)
Yeah i saw that i can maximize the current minimal settings, and minimize the maximum settings. I tried to increase a bit the minimum settings and did a benchmark, and i saw a difference already (i did 384 MHZ --> 584MHZ). But i dont want my phone to overheat or to decrease battery life.
The other options, i must admit i dont understand a thing, so what do you suggest to improve battery life for example, (or optimal settings if there are)?

I would suggest:
Min: 384
Max: 1512
Governor: ondemand
Scheduler: noop
SD Card Read Ahead: 2048kb
As for the other settings, it's better to leave them untouched.
For additional battery saving,
Install "Greenify" to hibernate power hungry bg apps such as facebook.
Also, turn off location services and auto-sync if you don't utilize them.
You can also go further by using "BetterBatteryStats" to monitor which apps are sucking your battery.

THanks a lot dude, i'm gonna try it!
btw if i set max to 1512 Mhz, my performance (while gaming for example) will decrease right?

Yes. But it shouldn't be that much.
Using noop as your I/O Scheduler results to faster SD Card Reads while reducing CPU Cycles, reducing battery drain. Reduced CPU Cycles would seem to affect performance though.

No problem. Just click thanks.
am using "rom tool box" on my XSP (rooted, .201, stock rom, c5303)... when setting up CPU speed, after reboot, settings are back to standard?!
any idea why'S that, or is it normal?

Check out for other apps or init.d scripts that may have configured Processor settings during boot time.

sry, but, how to do that Oo
I am using the latest Arrrghhhs anykernel along with ROM toolbox pro to underclock my min clock speed to 96MHz and overclock my max clock speed to 1890MHz. Im using ondemand as my cpu governor and row as my i/o scheduler. I have the option to overvolt and undervolt using ROM toolbox as well. I did some searching but cannot find any info specific to the Atrix HD. I was just curious if anyone has tinkered with this much and if so what have you found to be the best clock speeds/governor/scheduler/voltage combination. I've never really heard anything about overvolting, what if any benefits can come from this? Also what is the most you have been able to undervolt with causing a bootloop or other issues? On my old S3 I had a app that would test if your settings were stable by running different processes to put a heavy load on the device. You could run it as long as you wanted but I had learned if it reported no errors after 10 mins it was usually pretty stable at those settings. I cannot remember the name of the program and searching turned up nothing, I was hoping someone knew of it or knew of one that does the same thing. Thanks in advance for any help!
