Undervolting monitor widget - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok i am currently running on dlevs 4.2 with the latest talon kernel and i have been experimenting with undervolting no overclock and i was wondering is there a widget that will just tell you what CPU speed u are running currently. There is one speed that my phone becomes a little unstable and i want to know what speed that is so i can up the mv

Best Overclock Widget Settings

What are the best setting for the overclock widget (Screen on, Screen off, Adavance settings). I'm using ALOYSIUS 2.1.
I am running aloysius 2.1 as well and don't bother with overclock widget..It automatically clocks up to 710mhz. At that speed I get 4.8 mflops in linpack, at 768 with overclock widget i get 5.1. Not that significant of a difference for the decrease in battery life.

I'm running Jus10o's 768 for DC on a frankenstein job and I decided to not use an overclock app. I don't know what the scaling defaults to and it's not a concern. My phone is faster than ever and my battery life has been great.
Ok Thanks Guys, for your help
Hi, someone have sucessfully OC the Xperia X10 ?
What is the best way to do it ?
At my side Overclock widget return alway the stock frequency but no OC...
Thank you.

Overclock Settings

I am running the OC kernel on emmc froyo, I have it set up with setCPU to 1ghz with on demand settings. with set on boot.
I thought there was more control over the overclock besides a max/min slider.
Is it better on conservative or on demand or performance?
Looking for quick stability.

OC settings for Phiremod v5.1
Ok, since I can't yet post in the Dev section, I am going to ask my question here and am tagging the creator of the thread there.
I recently switched from UD 3.1.2 to Phiremod v5.1. I flashed the 1.1 OC kernel because the 1190 kernel seemed to lockup on me once I set it to 1190. Tried running quadrant in several different configs, I think the best score I got was around 1230, much lower than the 1700-2000+ scores I saw in the thread. Can someone help me with the settings?

Make sure you installed the right Overclock kernel for your rom.

[Q] Undervoltage or Underclocking?Tutorial

Please anybody can post a tutorial/step by step on how to Undervolt and/or Underclock
I'ver never done it although I have installed Overcome and Dip7 ROM before but I've never "touched" the clock and voltage settings....

Scroll Down! there is a guide for OC/UV Underclocking is pretty much the same.

[Q] Semaphore 1.6 beta

Unfortunately I can not post to dev section, so hopefully stratos will see my post here:
I had stock JVR with semaphore 1.5 (not v) on ext4 and everything was excellent with this brilliant kernel apart from the well known phone fc.
OC/UV was ok: quadrant scores were approx 1900-2400 on conservative cpu gov and 2500-3000 on ondemand gov.
Now, I flashed the 1.6 beta and my system is noticeably slower on *conservative* cpu gov and quadrant scores dropped clearly below 1500. Ondemand cpu gov seems to work ok but as I was alwaus on conservative I can not be abs.sure
I don't know if it is important but using voltage control app to check cpu function I see that:
a) cpu freq is wildly/unpredictably fluctuating with 1.6beta while this was not happening in 1.5 under conservative cpu gov,
and
1b) reported default voltage is different: for example with sema1.5 1200mhz had default 1275, now in 1.6beta without oc module 1000mhz is 1275 but with oc module 1200mhz have 1300mv by default.
Stratos,
could it be that a) something is broken in the new conservative cpu gov? , b) have you changed the default cpu voltage between v1.5 and v1.6beta?

Unfortunately I can not confirm your results. I just load the conservative governor and tested with and without overclocking. No problems here.
During benchmarking due to high load the frequency it's difficult to drop below the max. So, governor should not make the difference.
The uv value was the same in 1.5.0 (1300mv) for 1.2Ghz but it was wrongly displayed as 1275.
Thanks for you feedback. I will let you know if someone else report problems about the conservative governor.
Hey stratos, thanks for the clarification about cpu voltage.
Re cpu gov, I just did a nandroid restore and confirmed that conservative cpu gov works much better in 1.5
Any ideas on how to explore it further? There is definetely something different here.
I mean, its not just quadrant scores, its memento database loading instantly vs seconds of delay under cons cpu gov in 1.5 vs 1.6beta.
I will reflash again l8r tonight.
Anyhow, this kernel rocks! And I love the tun/netfilter module design.

[Q] OverClock -Governor- Antutu CPU Master

HELLO AND SALAM SATU MALAYSIA
Since i was newbie about android,
i try to overclock my Xperia X8.
so i went to market and i found Antutu CPU Master.
the problem is i found something that i never heard before.::::::
"GOVERNOR"
could someone told me..what is governor actually...
and what different better the governor module?
i only found about smartass..the other module..i didnt find in xda forum.
i hope someone could help me here..before i accidentally brick my phone.
Cpu governor is control the Cpu freq.
- The OnDemand governor is the default option used by Android. It scales the CPU speed between the minimum and maximum speeds depending on CPU load. If the system needs more speed, the kernel will rapidly scale up the CPU speed.
- The Conservative sets the CPU speed in a similar way to the Ondemand governor, but scales the CPU up much less rapidly. This would theoretically save battery power, but may lead to less responsiveness.
- The Userspace governor is currently useless. It’s another way for applications to set the CPU speed that setCPU does not use.
- The Performance governor always keeps the CPU at the maximum set frequency.
Additionally, he makes reference to another option, which is not currently part of the setCPU app, so I am assuming that this is one that was removed in later versions.
- The Powersave governor always keeps the CPU at the minimum set frequency.
- Except for “Userspace,” no matter which governor you set, the CPU will always stay within the bounds of the maximum and minimum speeds you set in setCPU.

btw,what apps u use to overclock.?
and what governor u preferred? and what is ur min n max scale?

I'm not using any app. I overclocked in my system (alfs+GDX). My governor is OnDemand. Min 129mhz - max 748 mhz.

Offcourse you can install alfs but you should unlock your bootloader...

i already make it,...
thanks a lot.
last question...what version u have?
it is ok to use alfs kernel with different roms,not GDX?

I have vesion 5. You can use alfs with other roms but maybe wifi won't work or vibration....

i use alf kernel version 3..
so far,i didnt find any bug.
wifi n vib work very well with my linuxperia arch v1 rom.
i use antutu benchmark..i get 1881..
superb ..thanks a lot.
1881 good. Do you like LinuXperia v1 ? Come soon LinuXperia Esca Arch 3 ( overclock, bravia hack, xloud, dsp manager vs )
