Equivalent to LG Gearbox? - LG Optimus 4X HD

So, at ICS, most of us used Gearbox, right?
Most of the games worked well if I enabled only one core, or rather, it actually came close to 60 fps I believe. As for now, these games lags because of little optimization.
Is there any equivalent which lets you limit to one core, working with JB? Thanks in advance.

If you have root use this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tegraoverclock
It does what you ask + GPU control and a lot of other stuff

Just to mention it, I've got root, yes.
Does the app easily revert to standard?
Like, if I apply the settings, can I go back to standard easily?

Yes, you just untick the master boot control and reboot

Slight lag on the Droid?

I'm pretty sure I don't remember this happening before, but I might be wrong. I was using my phone and suddenly the UI wasn't as smooth as it used to be, the app drawer (I use LauncherPro) seems to load but freezes for like a quarter of a second when the 3D part of the menu (not sure how to describe it, I can give a screenshot of it if you want) loads. I guess I could get myself to live with it, it I'd like to get it back to how it was before if that's possible, help would be appreciated.

Rooted, running Froyo. Using a automatic oc kernal (the one that pushes it to 1250 MHz And just a few apps (Droid LED and Wifi manager) that didn't work/I didn't need. I do have quite a few apps though, but it didn't always do this with a lot of apps installed.
...it actually seems to have fixed itself o_o, well after I uninstalled twitter
Edit: Nevermind, the lag is back <<
Theres a very good chance it is the kernel. To my knowledge 1.25GHz is a little unstable (correct me if I'm wrong. I don't have a droid, but a milestone).
It happened when I was using the 1 GHz kernal too though :\

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

@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.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
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?

Help with NOTE

I love my note and its. But now I am.facing some issue response time when I click on.button got higher like 4 second when screen will apper back.
Any idea I removes all unnesserry applications and still my ROM showing 645 some time. When I kill it it goes to 425 but than in few second go back to old place.

What ROM are you on? Need more specifics.
I have not rooted my phone.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Regarding 645 you are saying is RAM, not ROM. and that is android mechanism, when you exit from application still it remains in background for quick access till android system find it full. when your RAM is full android have LMK (low memory killing) function, which automatically free require RAM.
Regarding responsiveness you can clean install ROM. you are on ICS so not advisable to reset/wipe device
first root it and flash safe kernel then wipe cache and data it will solve issue.

U may like the result of rooting and install custom kernel like speedmod or hydracore.
There shld be no more performance issue.
Good luck.
Sent from my GT-N8000 using xda app-developers app
you need to remove bloatwares on your phone (apps you don't need to use at all), Root your phone, install Titanium backup and uninstall those bloatwares off (using the app).
Second, after removing most of your bloatwares, boot your phone to cwmr and wipe cache/dalvik and restart your phone.
Don't check anything under under Settings>Power Savings
and lastly,
Minimize installing battery app savers as this will actually maximize your battery(not sure if this is really true or not), but degrades the performance on the phone.
I agree wid cleo

[Q] Extend battery life - underclock/undervolt

Hello,
I received my LG 4X as a present and I finally replaced my iPhone 3gs. I can't say I am all that excited so far - I've been using android in my tablet for almost a year now and I can't say the os has matured enough. Anyway, I cut to the chase.
My friend has installed something on his S3 that enables him to undervolt/underclock his device. Is there something similar for the LG 4x? Or disable cores and have them enabled on-demand?
Has anyone tried such an app/mod? Does it work well?
Thanks for your time!
if you're rooted, the best app for you is SetCPU.

Besides slowing the device down, does it actually give any battery extend results?
Re
I dont know if all was caused by the external sd card but battery improved since i got CN from dexter and Set CPU
Its not possible to undervolt our CPU since our kernel doesnt support it.

laggy jellybean 4.1.2

hi,i've always been a fan of the optimus 4x hd and finally bought one a week ago. was too excited to update to jellybean that i ignored all the problems i heard about and now i can't live with the problems in this update.
i read about a lot of problems with the update but after using it for a week(heavy user) ,the only problems i see are the lag and the slow charging.
i could've lived with anything but this lag is too much to take in. it gets so painfully slow sometimes. i mean,it's a quad core beast for crying out loud!
what is the best way to fix this?
should i go back to ICS?
should i root and install a custom rom??
any help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Install custom kernel and wipe all. There should be no laggs. Or flash custom rom and kernel or roll back to ics.
There is already an jelly bean lagg thread. Why not use search function ?

what i mean is what is the easiest,safest way to fix it. the phone is brand new (and quite expensive here) i don't wanna brick it or something.
does any of these solutions require rooting?

Yes, they require rooting, unlocking the bootloader etc. Please, please start using the search function.
If your phone is expensive and you can't afford to risk it then you shouldn't ever be messing around with it as there is always a risk in anything.

To reduce the lags,
Type 3845#*880# on the dial pad and enter the hidden menu.
Scroll down, select MLT, uncheck the box at the bottom and restart your phone.
For fast charging, enter the hidden menu, select Module test/Charging test. Check the box at the top, replug your charger and voila!

No you don't have to do that. MLT has nothing useful for the end user.
Backup your data and try factory reset for the lagging problem.
Sorry but these are the only two solutions i know.
If you decide to root your phone one day, you may try LGP880 Booster for better gaming experience and fast charging. Search the forum for the download link.

It's not about being stupid. The very first rule of XDA is to always search before asking any question.
I wasn't being rude or condescending, just honest about the risk to your phone if you can't afford to take that chance.
Maybe you should consider winding your neck in a little bit, you're new on here and need to learn the rules before you go mouthing off at people who have been here a while and take a lot of time to help people on the forums.
thanks,again. i appreciate you taking the time to reply

Try them out and judge for yourself. "Best ROM", "Best Kernel" etc threads are not allowed on XDA as you will get as many different opinions as people who reply, and they tend to lead to arguments.
