Help overclocking

Can someone please help me figure out the best settings for set CPU I just rooted my friends d1 last night and installed the miui Rom and he loves it but I have a hero and I'm not sure what the best settings are for set CPU

Try 250 min and 800-1100 (depending on kernel) and on demand for governer. I turn my gps off and am using lfy1.95 for my rom and my battery last about 9 hrs with lots of web,angry birds,twitter and sms,news widget.

I have a d1 and I'm OCd to 1.2gHzand my battery lasts the better part of a day with plenty of texting, phone calls, internet and gameboid. It is a lil unstable when too many apps are running in the background however. Btw I just noticed you said you had a hero. If so, you might wanna post your question in the HTC hero forum. Just a heads up for ya.

the question was about a droid not a hero
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

My droid runs good at 250 min and 700-1000 max. If it gets hot, which it likes to, I have setcpu set to scale it back to 600.

I'm using a P3 kernel, 125-1000. I have min at 125 and max at 900, interactive. Battery life is great, heat is great and runs great. (lot of greats, but that is Miui).

Zio Overclocking Question

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

CPU files are located within the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ directory

@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?

OC Apps

Hey guys/gals I am currently using SetCPU as my oc app wondering if there is any better ones? What are you using and what features you like?
Set CPU allows you to make profiles but only for limited instances... battery life screen off ect. I like that loads on boot which is nice also.
Making bad decision's one at a time.

I use antutu cpu master a lot like set cpu.

Im using Andrev OC, its not really an app, it runs as a daemon, uses a script to activate at boot. Then you can use Andrev OC adjuster and Mytr Undervolt app from market to adjust the script via GUI.

Best cpu frequency?

What is the best freq for longer battery life and smooth device?
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

I have the Nexus 4 and in every day use I use have my CPU set from the lowest frequency all the way to the highest frequency and it uses them when necessary. That way when playing a game or using an app or multiple apps I can get best performance from my phone, and then when not doing something that requires a lot performance it simply save the battery by not using very much of the CPU at all. I also find interactive to be the best governor because I don't like how on demand goes all the way up when touching the screen. I like how interactive is easier on the CPU, you will see what I'm talking about if you use the SetCPU app. If you don't have SetCPU, I suggest that you get it, its great! You will also need an app called Trickster so that you can disable something called MPDecision so that your phone cannot go to 1026mhz everytime you touch the screen and you can let the interactive or ondemand governor do its job. In the app SetCPU, there is a profile section where you can create profiles to command your CPU to be at or range from a certain low to high when your phone is doing a certain something, example: you could set the CPU to be at its highest for low as well as high when you open and play Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. I currently only have 1 profile, when the screen is off I have the low and high frequencies set to the lowest, that way it cannot go up at all when the screen is off and will conserve battery like crazy. Normally when your phone is in use and you touch the screen your CPU goes way up, but disable MPDecision and use those apps and your phone will run amazing and you will save a lot of battery. Have fun and good luck!

I cant use trickster mod. When i enter it, it says it needs root access. And i already granted it.

Hmmm... That sounds strange. Is your phone unlocked and rooted properly? Do you use any other apps that require root access and do they work?

Yep. When i click on trickster, im less then a sec they kicked me out and say i need root access

[Q]How to enable only two cores? (CM ROM)

Hi all.
Dont know if this is a stupid request
I am on CyanogenMod based ROM and i want to save battery (maybe) disabling some cores of my O4X...
I read this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804461
but not working on CM ROM so...
I ask you!
I read also this 2 threads but I dont know if they are only for htc one x
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630200
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652136
There are tricks to enable only 2-3 cores or something like this?
For CyanogenMod of course!

Hi, you could try with this nice app called Tegra Overclock. I've been using it for quite a long time now and I really like it. It's very simple and you can REALLY set how many CPUs you want online + there are also some other options for OCing etc.
Oh and btw, I just tried that app from the HTC One X thread that you pasted and unfortunately, it doesn't do the job. :/

No problem. I hope that It will help you with your battery life.

also cpu tuner and trickstermod do the job pretty well. If your aim is to save battery check cpu tuner out

But seems that trickster mod dont save those settings for me...
Multicore Power Saving
always set to 0
Max Active CPU core
always set to 1
No way to fix them (various rom and kernel tested).
AND
Seems that tegra overclock fired up my CPU (CPU never goes under 1000 Mhz but always on max)
my phone after few minutes reboots in bootlop cause the temperature reached !
I reinstalled the ROM!!
LOL experience!!:banghead:

You need to set up min/max cpu that way u wont be stuck on max cpu speed and overheat your phone.Tegraoverclock is fine but i am kinda used to SetCpu app.Download cpu spy from market and watch deep sleep that way you will know whats going on with cpu all the time.BetterBatteryStats are fine too.
