Another crack at an overclocking app?

For what it's worth...
no2chem has an app he's working on that suppose to overclock the TP to
800mhz.
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/post/2009/09/06/Touch-Pro-running-at-800MHZ.aspx
I'm not endorsing attempting to overclock anything. The last thing I ever overclocked what a celeron 300, to 450Mhz back in the day LOL, but, for you
hard core types, might want to head over there and read the thread. THE APPLICATION IS NOT AVAILABLE to download yet, I suppose he wants to really make sure your TP does not burst into flames, or cause a rift in the time space thingy

I read through the whole thing. It looks very promising, but is in its starting stages. Hopefully we can see something good come out of it. If we pick up a few hunderd MHZ, im sure it will greatly help the phone out.

Yeah, I've been following the thread also. If they can get it to work...I'm thinking it would be a trade off. Yes, I'll bet anything these chips are a bit underclocked, but, I'm also believing they are underclocked to remain stable.
Plus, anytime you run one over the specs, it just has to have a marked decrease in battery life, and it almost has to heat it up a bit. Those electrons can only run around inside that tiny package so fast before they heat up

I tried the app 2 times on my Fuze running 6.5 Energy Rom. Crashed everytime I tried to run the program. Gonna wait for the finished product to see how it turns out because the "test version" does not.

Ok so why in the world would anyone want to speed this little Gem up?
Running an energyrom i can run AD2P plus read a book or surf the net fine (hell ive even logged onto one of my webhosts from it) without any lag or speed trade off.
Isnt this just going to kill battery and heat the thing up?

you cant play games like quake and tony hawk with default speeds.. overclocking will enable u to play those games without a lag

Galaxy on Fire 2 out now

Check it out
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.fishlabs.GalaxyonFire2THD

Finally, and the best part is that its free.
(First launch you will have to download 530mb)

After the first 100 it speeds up. Sitting this out on my slow dsl..

I downloaded the game, started to download 530 mb and finished, when it was about to start it hanged.
WTF?

i started playing. u can play 1 hr free, then it asks for a full version. costing 12€

This game seems to be all I hoped it would be, except that the framerate is kinda low on high settings it seems. This is one of the best games on any mobile device right now in my opinion!

I've been waiting for this for a while. Unfortunately, I beat it in about five hours. However, that's if you only follow the main story line. It has tons of replay value. It's totally worth the 15 dollars.

This game is totally worth it!!!
After it managed to install and download 530mb successfully, this game was really well made. and the 15 dollars are worth the payment.

Has anyone tried playing this with a PS3 controller attached?
I'd much like to know if it works.

This sounded interesting so I tried it. but the game doesn't respond to any button presses from the ps3 controller.

That's sad... We should all make a request at the developer.
Can you play with the keyboard dock instead of the touch screen?

Finished the story line in less than 2 days
after story finished in every mission messages are repeated every 5 seconds and upon completing a mission one ends up in kind of a "message loop" (messages pop up over and over again and no way out)...

this looks great. Can the demo be replayed or is it a one time play through?

The demo can be replayed.

So you are saying there is essentially zero replay value??

I thoroughly enjoyed the game. While it was quite short (~6 hours for me), there are loads of side missions, which I am now accessing thanks to the automatic resume point prior to finishing the game.
The graphics are pretty nice, but it unfortunately plays too slowly on Medium or High settings in certain areas. Other areas, even High is fine... I prefer consistently high frame rate, though, so I just do Low everywhere. When Tegra 3 comes out, putting this game at High will be a dream. The fog makes High look absolutely gorgeous.
All in all, I like it. While $15 is a healthy chunk of change for a cell phone / tablet game, this truly reeks of console quality because of its depth.

I love this game, completely worth the $15

playing the game on high with a OC at 1.4ghz and running very smooth
Must say the game play and animation is somewhat arcade like and has a 2nd generation feel, so nothing to rave about imo, price tag pretty steep as well. Graphics looks pretty good but no way near pc quality, all in all not bad for a tablet game.

My Phone temp. too HOT ??

HEllo Im new here ,, this is a stupid question but I just wanna ask the optimal temp of smartphone because my s advance temp looks kinda hot specially the upper part of the phone ranging from 37 to 41 degrees celcious when opening aps and games,, this is definitely hotter than the first time i bought it,,

Its normal I think..
I mean its normal and OK until the phone actually stops responding and/or behaves abnormally.... And you will get a message/notification that it is overheated and will automatically turn off (or reboot) - I'm just guessing because I never saw it on my phone but I once saw it "partially" on my friend's S3 once...
One more thing... The phone usually heats up a bit while its charging.... The same thing applies when you are playing games or browsing the internet for a long time...
Sent from my SGSA... If my post(s) helped you in any way then please wish me Good Luck for my exams!

mmm.. yeah my phone does not exp. force shutdown or reboot yet so I think its fine for now ..
I google a little and i found out that overheating is one of the sign of battery problem..
Im a heavy user like Im using it almost everyday(playing games etc.) so Im suspecting it might be a hardware problem or maybe BAttery problem, and I hope it just a battery probem but my phone is just 7 months old, and phone battery should last a year or two, but considering my heavy use it might be.,, so Im gonna try to replace my battery Thank you anyway for your reply and good luck

Hmm.. its upto you, whether you want to change your battery or not... and yes too high temperature will reduce its overall "life".. but I still think both your phone and your current battery is ok because smartphones (usually the ones with more than one CPU) usually heat up a bit when it is used for a long time

YEs it maybe still on good condition, but in a 1 hour palytime at the temp. of 41 °C is very uncomfortable to me. this is like holding a child with a super high grade fever with your hands,, and it applys to all games i played.,
By the way may I ask what is your phone highest temp. during playing games??

Im using the app Du Battery Saver it has a notification that contains a battery temperature I think this is pretty much the phone temp itself. I used diiferent "thermo app thing" the result is pretty much the same so I think its accurate,,

Ok Thanks...
My current phone temperature is 32 degrees... I just used it to talk with my Dad..
So yeah I'm pretty sure if I play GTA VC now that temp will rise to +40 degrees...

On my P model the temerature never (i mean NEVER) rised beyond the level that it would feel uncomftable... I think your phone !might! be faulty but I'm not sure about it

Install a software to monitor the life and temp of the battery

HTC ONE charging but still losing battery when playing 3D games

This is my first android phone, but is it normal if I am playing 3D games (Real racing 3) while charging but its still losing battery?
Often it ended up being 1% power and shuts off by itself.
It does charge when i close the phone or jsut browse the net.
Should i be worried or?

No, Real Racing can really eat up a lot of power. I've seen it touch up to 1200mAh and the charger can only provide a maximum of 980mAh or so. Also, realllly not recommended to charge and play demanding games at the same time

How about bad piggies.. lol it also loses battery but very very slowly
Also.... to play demanding games u need to charge!!! lol or else u run out of battery in no time!~

Bad Piggies should be absolutely no issue lol. Heck, you can play it with Power Saver on and it wouldn't affect the game a bit.
Well...unless you want to play demanding games for hours on end, then I really suggest you not to charge and play at the same time. For one, the added heat pushes temps up, and the One throttles at 40 degrees. Anything above that and it kicks the CPU speed down a few notches till it's under 40 again.

Nexus 6 gets really hot

Well my Nexus 6 has started getting really hot even with moderate usage. Its not like it burns my hand but it gets uncomfortable at times and it worries me.
If I'm just browsing on chrome, checking out Facebook, or playing a simple game like Crossy Roads, the phone starts getting really warm and after a while its really hot. Even when on WiFi it becomes hot. I have to close all the apps and leave it for a while so that it cools down. I don't have a lot of apps open all the time and I have a lot of memory remaining.
I can't really figure out what's the problem, any suggestions?
Thanks.

+1 Facebook application consumes extreme amounts of battery and system resources. That would be my first suggestion as well. Uninstall Facebook and see if you notice an improvement.

It would be easier to suggest something if you let us know if you are stock or have been playing with roms/ kernels and their settings.... I have seen other phones get hot with too aggressive kernel settings.....

first off, what cpu temperature ate you talking about? secondly, feel does not give you am accurate temperature reading, all its does is show you if something is hotter, or cooler, than your hand. thirdly, your phone can get up to 99C in temp. at 100C, the boiling point of water, your phone would automatically shut down to cool off. now while using your phone, especially when using the cpu hard, it will get hot. but that is normal. you own a quad core phone with a 2.65ghz cpu. do you really expwct it to stay cold?

Thanks for the suggestions.
I'll try uninstalling Facebook and getting back to you. I've already uninstalled Facebook Messenger.
My CPU temperature is around 41 degrees Celsius and when it gets warm to the point that its uncomfortable is around 58-60 degrees Celsius.
In know it has a really powerful cpu but I don't always want to be holding a device that is warm to the point that it becomes uncomfortable.
Also I haven't even attempted rooting or changing the kernels so its all stock.

58-60C is VERY normal, when using the phone. so maybe a powerful phone isnt right for you.

But is it normal to feel warm? Even though its powerful shouldn't it stay cool? Is this happening to every Nexus 6 user? Sorry for the influx of questions

again, feel osnt an accurate way to kudge temperature. if your hand is cooler, the phone will feel more hot. your phones temp also is dependent on the air temp around you. as if its warmer outside, then the phone will get warmer. but yea, every nexus can and will get that warm. and at times, will get even warmer! try plugging in to a charger and streaming a movie. in this situation, ive seen my phone hit 74C. but thats normal as well. unlike deaktop computers, our phones dont have fans blowing to keep the cpu cool. we rely on an inactive way to keep our phones cooler, so its normal for the more powerfully phones to get warm, and even hot.

Try this.
I was having overheating issues. When gaming, charging, or just about anything other than the phone at an idle. I cleared the cache in recovery. That's it. I did not uninstall anything or modify anything in any way. And now I do not have those issues. Is that what fixed it? I do not know. Will it work for anyone else? I do not know that either. But, I'm pretty sure that if you can clear the cache with your stock recovery, it won't hurt anything. Maybe you will get lucky and it works. Bonus benefit, battery life improved for me as well. Maybe 20% better. I hope it helps you as much as it did for me.
Good Luck.

if you are having "overheating" issues, then you are saying that your phone hits 100C constantly and reboot? if not, its not an "overheating" issue, its an issue with you and some heat.

lol! im not saying youre lying! seriously. im just saying that the behavior that you experienced is odd, considering thermal throttle being there. i actively disable thermal throttle every single time i boot up. and i try, really try, but have not been able to reach 100C on my n6. and i run my cpu at 3032mhz high and low cpu speed. now my nexus 5 reaches shutdown very easy, it takes seconds to get it there. my n6, no matter how hard i push, purposefully, i can not get it to reach 100C. now your reboot might have been something completely different, and you not reaching thermal shutdown. but i doubt you would have known that, because you would need a live cpu temp in your status bar to see if you hit thermal shutdown. and i doubt you have a cpu temp showing in your status bar. i do

If your phone is 55+C while you are not using it very intensely there's a problem.
I listen to music, watch videos, play some games like clash of clans and I never break 50 Celsius.

youre probably looking at the battery temp. battery temp is different. if your battery hits 60C, youll automatically shut down. everyone i know with a nexus 6 sees over 50C cpu temp rather often. well, depending how hard you are using the cpu, and the temp around you.

Well I can't tell you how hot it was getting. But when I played Star Wars Galactic Defender while charging it got really hot, almost too hot to hold. Although I am sure that what I felt was nothing near the boiling point of water, it was enough to make the phone restart.It got hot under the same circumstances with 5.0. Just not that hot. But after the 5.1 update it started getting much hotter. At the time I wouldn't put it on a charger at night because of the crazy heat. After the cache clearing things have been much better. It doesn't even get warm when fast charging.

Partly. Through normal operation with stock interactive governor I sit around 40-50 playing music, opening coc, etc. Phone never feels hot in hand.
When I'm idling or reading something or casually scrolling I'm always sitting 35-40 CPU temp.
Obviously if I crank it up and lock to 2.6GHz and run some CPU stresses I quickly get up to 75C :laugh: but that isn't normal operation. Relaxed operation when the CPU is idling should sit pretty low.

using the cpu lightly or it just sitting there wont get it hot at all. listening to music is using the cpu very lightly. if it gets hot just sitting there, then that is a problem. thats usually caused by a process getting "stuck" and the cpu staying a 100% active. so the heat in that situation would be a symptom, but not the problem.
