Overclocking notice?

Im sorry if this is in the wrong section, but when overclocking my phone I notice that it tends to stay in the highest clock possible. If I have it at 1.2 its at 1.2 for 90% of the time. How can one fix this problem? Is it a kernal or voltage control problem?

Try disabling the perflock. That will allow your device to read the frequencies. The only thing is you have to disable the perflock everytime u reboot. But it will enable your custom profiles. I had the.exact same problem.
But as always you can download a kernel with the perflock permanently disabled. But if u like your current kernel, just disable the perflock inside Setcpu

What ROM and kernel are u using? If using a kernel like hardcore's speedmod, did u make sure u r flashing the Captivate version, and not the 9000 version.

Do captivates have this perflock? I never thought they did. The last I heard it was HTC phones that had this to be disabled. I have flashed quite some ROMs and kernels, and never had a necessity to even use SetCPU.
And to honest, I would recommend NOT to use set cpu on any captivate with 2.2 or higher rom/kernel. That tends to mess up the phone.

Im gonna be using phoenix 4.5 once it finishes downloading... but as of now, im on 4.1 and with setirons kernal1.5.6

[Q] CPUspeed

Does anyone have app CPUspeed for OCing CPUs?I saw this app in cyanogenmod or froydvillain ROMs,but i cant find it nowhere.Anyone?
Thanks

why aren't you using SetCPU ?? it's way better. You can get it here : SetCPU for Root Users. Don;t forget to buy it from android market if u want to support the developer.

Because I use rooted stock ROM,and setcpu doesnt work.I set cpu speed but its still default.

You can try CPU master or CPU tuner

I tried,doesn't work. My only hope is CPUspeed. I tried some ROMs too,but they are unstable on my device.

[Q] Noobish - CPU doesnt want to be controlled

Hi. I'm new to here.
I have rooted my Gnote, and i dont know wether it is a full root or what.
For maximizing my battery, i underclocked my Gnote by setting max CPU freq to 800 MHz or 1 GHz using SetCPU.
But.. according to the CPU history using No-Frills app, it written there it is still clocked to 1400 Mhz and 1200 MHz sometimes.
Is this a rom problem? Or kernel ?
Btw i'm using stock and SpeedMod k3-3 kernel.

sometimes setcpu seems to not wanna start after a reboot so I really recommend you start the app and see everything is well in the app and see from there that your cpu frequency does not exceed the selected value. Otherwise I recommend using voltage control. I'm using it on speed mod and all is good for me.
Cheers.

yeah. sometimes the setcpu app says that it has been denied superuser permissions.. but dunno why :| any ways to solve this ?
in my Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830) setcpu and others run OK :|

Open super user and double check that its been granted permission. If so open your file manager and make sure you can access the data folder in root and set rw priveledges, make sure you have full root.

MODS Multi Core Governor's/Frequencies (QCBeta1) + V6 Supercharger (U9RC11T4)

ALL ROMS AND DEVICES SUPPORTED​for both of these mods listed below
single / dual and quad core
V6 super Charger in post 2​
MULTI-CORE GOVERNORS AND FREQUENCIES​
this is a patch which allows you to edit the governor of each core independently, as well as setting each its own min / max frequencies, IT'S NOT MY WORK AND ALL THANKS GOES TO Smokin1337
Firstly dl the zip, then flash via your chosen recovery, I flashed on fresh installs so I recommend you wipe your cache/dalvik cache to be on the safe-r side of life , if flashing over a *settled* rom
You will then need to run the command "su" in terminal emulator , followed by "cpu"
Then all settings are self explanatory inside the terminal emulator,
Here's the op
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584508
Here's the link to terminal emulator in the play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=enO
This mod , may be cancelled out by other mods and/or settings saved from them, I would recommend clearing data from system tuner, set CPU, CPU tuner etc, and reinstalling them without making changes to CPU , also disable forced dual core if you have a 3rd party app enabling it. Er........ I think that's it
.....nope, if you restore from apps such as titanium back up, any data containing CPU configs you restored may need to be removed too, if you want to make sure you are getting the settings set in terminal emulator and not those launched via init.d or on boot completion
Enjoy​

V6 SUPER CHARGER SCRIPT ​
LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL............. ReDraws n' Lag Will Be Gone!​
its like having a turbo on your device, lots of work has been put into this dont forget to go thank Zeppelinrox on The OP below
it has worked for me on his previous releases and accross many roms,
you may need a busybox update, to prevent a possible cause of a boot loop, but it does auto detect version,
and it is easy enough to upgrade busybox version,
with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.busybox.installer&hl=en free from the market/play store,
you will also need an app like script manager https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager&feature=search_result free from the market, and dont forget to turn the little su android button green to run as root when running the script
heres the OP, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276 ,
thanks to Zeppelinrox
heres the latest version

Yeah, its pretty much as straight forward as that, just don't forget too browse as root, and to run the script as root

New version of v6 super charger available, test release 4

OMG thats magic
But one question still remains.... how often should i run the script? and how often the includinc cleaning script?

As long as you don't have init.d scripts in your system/etc that can conflict, you shouldn't need too, I re run the script everytime I flash a new Rom. So 3 times a day sometimes lol , but once a week should be more than adequate, the cleaning script should be done, at the end of each time you supercharge

Thanks. Hopefully this will fix the memory leak issue on CM10

I think there is an issue with cm10 / jb - if your busybox is indifferent, change busybox at your own risk, be sure to nand before you alter busybox

Will try it now.

Question for supercharger script: after I ran everything, should I enter 33 at the driver console to exit? or should I leave it there and return to home screen.

no use 32 or 33. but id recommend running 32, to ensure you get all settings, saved from the script u just ran

One more thing. Does the script stick when changing kernel? Or should I run it everytime I flash a new kernel?

[Q] GingerDX v29 Overclock doesn't work

i am using GingerDX v29 and i when i installed the rom i installed the overclocking zip. Then i downloaded the SetCPU app and i clicked on the recommended settings, then it didn't let me overclock over 600mhz. i tried reinstalling the rom and it installing it again and it still doesn't work. it worked fine with GingerDX v28b. i think its something to do with the overclock module not being compatible with v29.
I am using stock kernel.
[UPDATE]
i fixed it, all i had to do was to delete the # in system/etc/hw_config.sh file

You didn't need to reinstall. I take it you are using the stock kernel?
Go back to the GingerDX thread and reread the first post. In it, it explains how to activate the overclock module.

I've got the exact same problem. There is nothing on the first post. I tried to manually install de x8oc.ko, I tried the cwm automatic instalation, I tried using set cpu, antutu cpu, nothing works....

I think the module doesn't work with v29
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app

I have v29 and the overclock works but u can't set it at which MHz u want.But u still have the governors. If it's not enough for you,u can simple download an oveclock app from the market.

highfive!
i uncomment those x8oc location configuration inside these files( hw_config.sh.bak , hw_config.sh , hw_config.bak.bak)
don't know if the other 2(w/ .bak) are useless coz the files got the same code inside,.
thanks for the thread btw :highfive:

delete the .bak files. i read somewhere here in xda that sometimes you need to delete the .bak files for the new files to work. not 100% sure though. and not all files behave like this from what i've read.

my frequencies are acting weird!,. i install the x8oc.ko module manually by moving it to /system/lib/module then i uncomment the location config inside hw_config.sh then reboot,. then a hw_config.bak file generated and i uncomment again then reboot then another hw_config.bak.bak file generated again but this time i deleted the two .bak files ,. then visited the CPU settings and confirmed successfully overclocked to 691(max)
BUT AFTER A FEW MINUTES AFTER TURN THE SCREEN OFF(not reboot) MY MAX CPU RETURN TO 600 MHz (,. then i try to reboot again then it return to 691 and then again when the screen turns off it return to 600(

Note: make sure you have downloaded SetCPU app
1.First install the overclock .zip files one.
2.Then Go to the original hw.config.
Scroll through and try and find 'modules'
3.Then in the modules it should have the 'x8oc' line.
4.On the beginning of that line there should be a # sign.
5.Remove the # sign and reboot.
6.After that check SetCPU.

i already did that and it can be done without the SetCPU app and i successfully overclocked my W8(691 max)
my problem is when i turn the screen off and wait for like 10 mins,. it returns to its normal clock speed(600 max)
