[Q] CM7 7.2 by squadzone safe for daily use? - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Is cm7 safe for daily use? the one made by sir Squadzone .. "especially for games" cause i really9x like his works..
Do you mind posting your opinions and experiences..
I really would love to hear from you guys.

yes it safe....
but the battery drains faster

Have you encountered any problem sir on your phone using cm7?
I presume your using overclock kernel by Mr Squadzone ..
Did it fry your processor sire?
Btw thanks very much for your replies .. i really appreciate it...
I'll press your thanks button after i post my reply.
waiting eagerly for your reply...

not much problems.
for me, just the battery, some games doesn't run properly, the camera sometimes shows contrast line, and the radio is sucks.
overall, this ROM is perfect.
the overclock doesn't harm the processor.
it safe.

Actually the overclocking kinda hurts the processor. Well since you push it over the limit it is used more so the life of the processor is getting shortened.

Whoa...new info for me.
Thanx dude..
But why the other ARM v6 have default cpu more than 600mhz?
It has the same processor isn't it?

I'm not into 'games' so much.
But I've tried Fruit Ninja, Cut the Rope, NFS Shift. and it runs well.
I've used this ROM for almost a month, and I didn't see any bugs yet.

they are included in the armv6 family yes but still the do have set lifespan.
think of it as processor of desktop, (same facts actually about OC).
ex:
armv6 v8 = default 600mhz = 5 years lifespan
armv6 v11 = default 800mhz = 5 years lifespan
intel e2200 = default 2ghz = 5 years lifespan
intel e2100 = default 1.8 ghz = years lifespan
now both arms are in the same family and both desktop procies also, the difference is that in the architecture set they do have different default freq which are set by manufacturers to maintain stndard life.
now if you push the v8 to 800 it will lessen the lifespan, yes it will be the same freq as the v11 but due to the design it will not have the same lifespan if you OC'd it.
it can be the same theory on motorcycle engines,
example would be the xrm 125cc engine.
it you would like it to be as fast as a 150cc engine you have to bore the piston hole the same size as what the 150cc has and change the piston size and rings and the carbs. but doing this will also push the engine to its limits. why because the safe design of 125cc engines are set as 125. if you go any further you will have better performance but less lifespan and can cause the engine to break faster even with good maintenance.
like your body, example would be.
by default you can last 4 days without sleeping but all you have to do is watch tv ,but you can't last 4 days without sleeping if you will jog 5 km every morning.

Awesome explanation.
So, if my arm v6 which is default 600mhz overclocked to 782, how much time left until it's "dead"?

What are your overclock settings? curious.

Hi folks,
I was just wondering, what are everyone's speeds? I shall start first I have attached a screenshot of my voltages, speeds, and governor.
WARNING : I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE YOUR NOOK MIGHT INCUR AS A RESULT OF TRYING ANY OF OVERCLOCK CONFIGURATIONS MENTIONED HERE.​
Quick note - i would strongly suggest backing your CPU down to a max of 1200Mhz. For some reason, any speed above that will tank your GPU performance (by as much as half); the additional 100Mhz CPU loss isn't really felt (especially with the GPU gains).

It has been well confirmed in severl threads (Cm7 dev and general), but you can easily test yourself with nenamark 1. Set your clocks to 1200, and run the bench; then set your clocks to 1300, run again (and watch your framerate plummet).

I tried your little scenario of dropping down to 1125mhz and running nenamark. I was 14.8 running 1125mhz and at 15.6 at 1300mhz. I am running chainfire plug ins.

And what do those numbers mean?
14.8 is better or worse compared to 15.6?

Odd.. i can get 21 Fps at @1200.. i would have expected the 1125 to be around the same; though the 1300 sounds right on.

Good point however I don't play any games that uses 3d. I don't really play any games. Just browsing with dolphin and lots of email.
I will take it down per notch as per your suggestion once I update to a newer version though.
Also, some of the framerate difference may come from you running the 32bit framebuffer kernel, instead of the faster 16bit (but if you don't game alot, you may not really need it anyway).
Scratch that. I just tested it. I got 22.9fps. Lawl. I am now tweaking it again. What are your voltages?
Thanks for the suggestion again. 1200 MHz Max for me.
P.s. how do I check which framerate buffer am I running?

If u don't play any games, then why to bother for the 3D loss of 1300mhz?
I would prefer to use the extra speed.

Frankly, i am under the personal impression that overall the system is more responsive at 1200, and that is not just the GPU. Something about that speed is the sweet spot.
And really.. only rarely will a system that does web pages and email hit max speed anyway... why not opt for a better all around performance, rather than an immeasurable CPU gain?
I know this could be kind of off topic, but what battery temperatures do you guys get when overclocking? because the other day mine was at 36 Celsius overclocked at 1200, Does anyone knows of a safe temperature range?
Mine hovers around 34 to 36. My hd2 goes up to 43 and that is fine too. Honestly, I would think that as long as it is under 40 you should not worth.
I use 300 min and 1200 max and have the governor set to on demand. No issues with this setting.
300 - .8125
600 - 1.0
800 - 1.1875
1100 - 1.25
1200 - 1.2875
Haven't used it much recently, but about 5% drain for 24 hours in sleep. I need to put it through some heavy use to see how bad I can kill the battery.

You probably got the voltages reversed. Not possible to run 300 mhz on 1.2875. Lawl.

This was my initial setting as well (with the exception of running the max at 1300mhz). However, I realized that it wasn't the max speed that was the issue, I found out that increasing the lower-steppings was key in increasing the overall fluidity of the device as the interactive governor ramped through the steppings.

[Q] Does the OC really make any effectiveness on Galaxy mini?

I've just flashed emanoN v3, it has No-Frills CPU control app by default, I used this app to set my CPU like this: Max 710Mhz, Min 245Mhz, Governor performance, I/O scheduler deadline --> Apply on Boot.
But is it me or it doesn't make any work on my Galaxy mini? I still get lag on many games like when not overclocked!
should i use chain fire 3D?
[Sorry 4 my bad English ]
Try other governors and reset your phone after making changes.

I did, but
should I use chainfire3d instead of NO-Frills ?
Chainfire 3D is graphics tool for better optimization of games and other 3D apps.
Did you check Apply on boot option?
as in my question: I checked Apply on boot option
If OC doesnt make any work on galaxymini, why did they add it in custom ROM 4 galaxymini?
Try other rom like CM 7.2 overclocking worked for me.
why doesn't the OC make any work on Noname ??!!
A tried over-clocking a couple of times but I really didn't feel the difference, except the battery drain, of course. Now-a-days, I don't even care to over-clock.
I am having my mini with cm7.1.0 music edition and overclocked it to 782 MHz and I find that in set CPU native benchmark I found that it took 900 micro second less when I clocked it to 782 MHz so I can say that Oct really works it also make my device run more smoothly its true that some games like angry birds lags yet after oc

Many games are tailored towards devices with 1Ghz processors and newer (including dualcore and advanced GPU's like the Tegra2 and Exynos chipsets). Don't expect the latest games to run reliably on a sub-800Mhz singlecore device.
Apps that require Chainfire3D are unlikely to work very well at all on the SGM as they're generally aimed at the higher-performance devices.
If you want to see the difference an overclock makes, then run an AnTuTu CPU benchmark before & after overclocking. If the figure doesn't change much (You should expect an increase roughly relative to the % of the overclock) then something isn't working correctly.
I can play Need For Speed Shift without any lag

Galaxy Note Using Mali-400MP GPU (Outdated GPU)?

hello guys..i heard that galaxy note and other samsung device are using an outdated GPU (Mali-400MP GPU)...so is it a little "fail" for our note to have an outdated GPU?plss give ur opinion.. thanks guys
..u can read the review about the GPU--> Here
It's so much faster than the sgx540 in the nexus it's ridiculous and since my choice was between those two I'm very happy with it.

Check out the real world performances. Mali 400 outclasses Adreno 220 easily.
The weakpoint of Mali is geometry performance, but it does not matter much with mobiles until now as mobile games are not geometry heavy.
On the other hand, the OpenGL ES 2.x performance and real world performance of Mali is excellent.
With the clock speed of exynos in Note which actually gives much better real world performance with Mali 400 than even SGS2, it runs circles around Adreno 220 powered devices like sensation and even SGX540 powered devices.

The above review is of SGS2. And mind you the performance of note is much better than SGS2. It is one of the most balanced GPUs on market with great gaming as well as multimedia performance (which actually matters more to someone like me.)

Yeah well Scott Adams is wayyyyyyy past his heyday (heck, even being relevant).... haven't read him since 2007 or so, when he started dabbling in intelligent design woo and sexist claptrap...
for being a heavy mobile gamer
i can assure you that the mali 400 on the note does very well with the latest games (asphalt7, dead trigger to name a few) despite having to compute for a much higher resolution display than other phones...
and with a little overclocking (tegrak app or gl notecore kernel) gpu performance can get sky high.
best phone i ever got :victory:

The NOTE's and SGS3's GPU are the same.
However, the S3 is built on a smaller 32nm die-size, so it means it uses less space and less power for same performance. Samsung uses this advantage to clock the frequency much higher than the NOTE (which is built on a 45nm die).
Also, the S3 implements a new, updated driver for the gpu and squeezes more performance out. This was a same move Samsung made with the SGX540, which is also a very fast gpu. The original SGS was clocked real-low and had outdated drivers... after stealing the driver sources from the LG with OMAP 4440 SoC, the SGS (with 4.0.3) was performing in the same league as the 2011/2012 devices.

I know that that both the note and sgs3 has same gpu.. But the one in sgs3 its more powerful cause you said it's overclocked and has better drivers..
Btw do you know why the mali in sgs3 gets so high benchmark scores even wih the 720p screen? I mean is it all due to oc and better drivers?

Better drivers + a little O'C makes the overwhelming difference.
I mean the NOTE comes with *only* 2 cores and *slow* gpu... after I customized it, its running toe-to-toe with the HTC One X (Tegra3).
An easier way to understand is to look at the new RIM PlayBook.
It's got the same processor as the Gnex (Galaxy Nexus) however its much much faster, especially in browsing. It decimates it. It even decimates the ASUS Transformer Prime Infinity (O'C Tegra3 + ICS).... or the Nexus7 (U'C Tegra3 + JBean).
You are only as fast as your slowest component. In the case of Android, its the high-level (slow) implemented software.
= Getting a faster soc with more cores and more ram doesn't really increase performance that much.
Some serious thread necromancy going on here!

But I don't live by the benchmarks. I mean have you tried some of the HD Apps from TegraZone. On stock TouchWizz, the NOTE really struggles. With a custom setup, I don't get much/any problems.

Exactly. Even though the Playbook has its many flaws (owned two both with screen/USB issues) it was a powerhouse. Multimedia was outstanding and web surfing was by far the fastest.
But the OS, QNX, is to thank for that. If the Playbook was running android it would be nothing out of the ordinary. As much as I love Android it really is not as efficiant as QNX

Recently I had a doubt about if it's possible to unlock the 2 locked remaining cores in the Galaxy Note N7000? Because I realize that the Note only uses 2 of the 4 GPU cores... It's there a possibility to do this? How?
i think mali 400 is a good GPU because Note1 and Note2 using it. and really nice GPU for gaming

x8 cpu to 1Ghz

It is possible to set x8 cpu to 1000 Mhz? I have read that yes. So how?
NO WAY.......!
Impossible
This is impossible... well.. Without melting the CPU or burning your phone... to death...

This is because the X8 have a ArmV6 processor... which seems to have a max of 864mhz clock speed... and IDK people that can run at that clock...
ArmV7 can be overclocked to 1GHz thought...

The processor architecture is not related to its speed.
Just because it's an ARMv6 it doesn't mean its maximum speed is 8xx Mhz.. You can have ARMv6 chips running at 2Ghz if they were made to run at those speeds..
The one on our phones starts failing at 8xx Mhz, and that also depends on the silicon quality of the chip you got..
About ARMv7.. You have chips on the market running way above 1Ghz

yes, I've tried that by mistake ......I've got endless FC to the point that I cant use my phone... So I re flashed my my rom again....
That is way pushing more to what your device can do.
I suggest you wouldnt try if you still want your x8 alive.
Well, the hardware doesn't support it
Our phone is stable at 600 MHz
But support at least 825
There are limits,only a dual core phone could run that frequency without exploding....

army grade (or military grade) products are a tad different including material and producting quality. But most of them are easyli replaceable as well...
Or if you ment arm cpu-s, well that could be done. If you can add quality cooling, plus voltage, a bit different architecture (which is at producting) they can. There are x86 CPU-s that can run at 4-5 GHz overclocked when they are stable at 3 Ghz. But they are cooled quite heavily and not to mention overvolted.
Our CPU-s manufatcure and basic, the design and required materials are for 600Mhz (with engeneering offset of 1.2 maybe) If the material quality and the casing is good, they can be overclocked with the "default" options (such as heat transfer -cooling-, voltage and current).
I can belive that the cpu of our phone can reach 1 Ghz, but not in our phone and not in manufacturer default settings.

Tnx for the post but
it was a writing mistake of go keyboard...I meant to say arm7 instead of Army...
Really sorry about that

Yes it can reach 1ghz maybe but just in laboratory conditions and in control of experts...

Yup.. With proper voltage and heat dissipation it would be possible.
To everyone saying that if you do an extreme overclock, the cpu will burn, get on fire, melt the pcb, explode.. Please stop watching scifi movies. If the frequency is too high, it will just freeze or not turn on at all.. No harm will be done. The only thing that can harm it is by giving it more voltage, but even that won't leave any physical marks.

I read thar xperia mini/pro/active/live/ray's cpu can be overclocked from 1ghz to 2ghz
I have a real proof that armv6 can go above 1ghz.I could do that on my previous phone,samsung galaxy 3.
Galaxy 3 has samsungs processor clocked on 667 mhz.and when I flashed my custom rom I was suprised when I could overclock it to 1400mhz.yes,I said 1.4 ghz.and I thought that ill have reboots,freezes,and that the phone wil overheat and such...but no.pure speed.temperature was around 28 degrees.
How much you can overclock is mostly in cpu company.and in our case,quallcom is one of the worst.it may could be overclocked to 1ghz,but it would need much hardware hacking.

Just asking....
Do anyone think it was posibble to change the cpu from armv6 to armv7 on X8
well i am new here.......

its impossible you can never set 1ghz or more:crying:
you can but it won't be stable. period.

unstable....overheating melting destruction of connectors...........lol
I think u can do it by super cooling, and have to hack the system. But it would be better if u buy a dual core phone

[Q] Phone getting horror after 1,6ghz

So I managed to overclock the phone to the max 2,1ghz . But the things that scare are the following: I make it 1,7ghz or 1,6ghz , I do antutu benchmark and I get 4500+ points . Then at 2,1ghz I do the benchmark again but I get 2500 . How is that possible and what is the explanation ? I tried making both min and max freq at 2,1 . I tried with min at 100,200,400 but the same happens. 1,7 is pretty good but 2,1 is lame. I have to tweak the governors ? I tried multiple combinations too, Ondemand,Interactive most that are in devil kernel + Sio,CFQ,Zen. If someone can tell me how is it possible for 2,1 ghz to be slower than 1,6/7 i will be very thankful.
The processor is more prone to errors at higher clock speed? Error correction skews things down? Mebbe. . .

A bit more explanation would be appreciated.
Im goiing to sound old here...
Its like having an old LP Record you know, one of those black round Disc shaped things that was used to play music.
They had little grooves on them that if you played it fast enough they would skip over the lines and the songs would jump
Thats like the OC the higher you go the system cant handle it... also the battery will drain faster and will heat up hotter
Hope that helps

also check the 2d and 3d score... the higher you go with overclock, the lower will be your 2d and 3d score, maybe because of the higher voltage for the cpu the gpu doesn't have enough power to work properly

normally, cpu score will increase while other aspect decrease when ur OC as u only OC ur CPU, not RAM or SD speed.
