is it possible that i enable only one core and disable all other cores of my cpu ? How???
I'm on CM 10.1 RC1 On v20a official - rooted - unlocked - with CWM recovery
You can do that by using an app called Tegra Overclock for example.

it doesn't have optimus 4x in the supported list
Our phone is supported, don't worry. We got Tegra 3 processor. I am using it daily to improve performance (mainly in games to overclock GPU and to REALLY force all 4 cores to work).
Here's a couple of screenshots that I just made to show you.

Wow it works perfectly
Thank you so much... It solves my problem.

Great! Np, glad I could help.
I have a question after force to use one core with this program how I can control the heat problem and the lag on the jb besides the drain battery problem? Thx for ur help

I'm guessing no since tegra drivers are close-sourced. But I could be wrong.
The GPU is indeed Overclock able, and the epeen version of vorkKernel for CyanogenMod Overclocks the GPU a little
Thank you.. do you know how much? btw brothers in arms 2 is lagging like hell..

The GPU is overclocked from 355Mhz to 366Mhz, on the EPEEN version of vorkKernel. But remember only to flash it if you're running CyanogenMod
Wiki says original is 300mhz for 2x or am i missing something? Btw strange thing ive noticed when running multitouch benchmark try to add more than two fingers and whatch fps drops from 120 fps to 60.. is that normal or there is touch bug like there was in optimus p500.

300Mhz might be the default. In that case we have some OC on the default one too.
Lag might occur on touch depending on ROM and stuff. One some devices a lot of log spam happens, and this slows down the device considerably
Ok thank you, same drops on cm7 fresh install as on fresh stock v10b its like 10 fps for each finger..

It's kernel doesn't support OC, you should flash an alternative kernel like swiftkernel, see thread in dev section.
And you're off topic, his thread if about gpu overclock, not CPU.

GPU is the graphics chip.
CPU is the chip used for everything else.
Overclocking the CPU will see performance gains in nearly every field, and the Tegra 2 can be overclocked from 1GHZ to 1.55GHZ or so.

oh thanks , but what is it that we usually overclock??
is it the cpu or the gpu??
seen o2x with 1.5ghz
so is it the cpu that is oc or the gpu??

just a quick through :
cpu can be overclocked(controlled by pimp my cpu/setcpu)
gpu based on source code can be overclocked too, but i can't find any voltage control that control gpu clock. so, overclock gpu is really minimal, from usual 335mhz to 366mhz. in benchmark, you won't see any noticeable score. so, i don't know if the gpu overclocking working fine or not, 30mhz increase seems not helping...
cheers...
Is there any way to reach 400mhz?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda premium
Yes it comes.. but based on my testing,it will cause black screen of death after screen turn off for several minutes. Normal clock or a little increase doesn't make those problem.

Try to set cpu min to 800mhz.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda premium
I noticed there is a CPU control in "ROM Toolbox". I was thinking about underclocking it to 1.2 Ghz.
So my question is, are there any downsides with doing this except that the phone getting a little bit slower?
EDIT: Does it matter with what app i underclock? Setcpu or ROM Toolbox..

Im rooted on Speednote kernel.. My bad, should have mentioned it..
Speedmod does not support those tweaks... You need the notecore OC in order to be able to do so..
It's the same whatever app you use.. To change the frequency... Setcpu /etc

Why uc it slows performance I would try and find a kernel you can undervolt that will save heat and battery because it useing less voltage
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Put it this way. I am running Android 0.8 with the matching kernel (can't remember name) but that UC the graphics I believe and also has options to have min / Max speeds on CPU.
My Max speed is ALWAYS set to 800mhz. I'll be honest, I don't really notice any massive lag or slow down, the odd moment here and there when loading apps or taking a photo, but nothing major.
Battery life is a lot better when underclocked obviously. Give it a try, you may find it perfect for your requirements... it certainly is for mine.

Underclock under 200mhz has some downsides regarding performance/battery consumprion. U should checj the notecore kernel (hydra kernel) and search in there gavin's explanation

Well, i planing on just underclokcing my MAX speed (1.4 Ghz) down to 1.0 or 1.2 Ghz..

Hi Rivan =) ..if you from some reason just want to underclock to 1.0 or 1.2 you can safely do that with rom toolbox or setcpu. There should not be any downsides from doing it in any of those two apps as far as I know, except for that your phone will become a little slower as you mentioned yourself.

Depends on why you are underclocking.
If you are looking for better battery life then you are better off flashing HydraCore (formerly NoteCore) as this is an undervolted kernel, then selecting a low drain governor using ROM Toolbox Pro.

HI i want to know if someone tested lg gearbox in JB because i can't use this app to change active cores on JB

Tegra overclock is working well but it's needs root
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda premium
I use ROM Toolbox Pro to change the CPU speed. I don't think the phone supports dual core only as it is also buggy even when using LG Gear Box. To save energy you can simply downclock it to 1 ~ 1.1Ghz and use DS battery saver to enjoy deepsleep. Also, I use "interactive" governor and feel that it gives the best balance between battery life and performance on O4X. If this phone had "pegasus" governor, I might use that one and see if it's better since it has proven to be very good on my SGN2.

Is there a way to limit the amount of cores that can be active on a custom kernel? I am using eprj kernel and am able to disable 2 cores using trickster mod but I really want to try optimus kernel but I can't find out how to disable the cores
Also is there a significant battery improvement if you disable 2 cores and run at 1ghz or is it better to enable all cores and run at 716 mhz?
Sent from my Optimusx4 using xda app-developers app
I'm trying two cores in iodak at 1400 is really smooth but I can't tell anything about battery because I'm starting to try now, only thing I can tell you is that dual core at 1 is better than four cores at 716, why? Some apps runs great at 1 GHz and only use one core, so that app at 716 will work slow and laggy, there is not so much apps that works with all four cores enabled and that apps will work well in two cores enviroments

Hi guys, what app for tweaking do you use? I don't know wich one to use. I need an app for setting gpu clock, cpu clock, voltage and active cores.
Thank you!
Trickster mod is probably the best :thumbup:

LoKKeR, I'd highly recommend Tegra Overclock for settings number of CPUs.

I'm trying to use Tegra Overclock a lot since it sounds really useful but when I install it I CAN'T DO ANYTHING! Seriously, I touch the icons and nothing happens, the only thing that happens is that the cpu freq on top is allways updating, but the app itself doesn't let me do anything ! Any thoughts about it ?
