[Q] Can't change CPU freqvency?! - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on stock XXAMG4 rooted rom. Root works but I can't change CPU freq. I tried SETCpu and NoFrills but neither works. Only thing I can change is governor. I don't want to overclock my device, I want to set min. 400 mhz and max. 800 mhz but when I select those freqvency nothing happens.
Any tip?

use a kernel that allows you to set a frequency

I would never think of that...

stock kernel is very limited
there are a two modified stock kernels that you can try just remember to do the backups

Got it. When Power saving mod is active I can change cpu clock whatever I want.

[q] gingerdx overclocking

i installed gdx v009 and overclocked it and set the setcpu to 729 Mhz - 122 Mhz. i'm having some trouble sometimes my phone just automatically reboot by it self... is there a way to fix this? or should i uninstall overclock and run it on stock ram. have anyone of you tried this kind of setup? any answers/reply or comments are welcome. please. thanks in advance.
Try lowering your Overclock.
I've heard that some people had reboot problems with OC (but not only in this ROM).
Mine is 122-691Mhz with GingerDx.008 and its okay.

Realy? What seems to be the problem on my unit.... maybe i should set my setcpu setting the same way you did... how about supercharger script have you tried? I brick my phone twice trying that supercharger.
Nope. I didn't try to use supercharger.
I've read that when we want to OC, we should try the different CPU speeds gradually.
Increase a bit and then see if the phone handles it... then increase a bit more... when the reboots or other problems start, we know which frequence we should use.
But the frequence is not the same for every CPUs... The phone is the same, but not every CPUs handle the same... We can be lucky and get it to 800Mhz without problems... but not everyone has that lucky.

Good for you, now i reduce the speed and set it to 729 mhz still under observation i hope this will fix the problem...

Hi all,
any idea why I get no options to set min. and max. CPU frequencies in CPU settings? I am using GingerDX v011 and had the same problem in v010.
I can open the "Max CPU frequency" option, but it is empty with no available frequencies to choose...
Thank you
For using something exactly like supercharger, use the stuff in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212396&page=14
Each phone can OC to a different max frequency, for example I can't OC to 825 MHz but I know some people can.

I believe GingerDx does not ship with the X8Overclock module...
Hello:
I wanna know: is it possible to do overclock in gingerDX-v011 ?
I found a option but they are blocked
yes it is possible but you need to download X8overclock v004. you will find this in DX's signature, just click the link read the guide download and stick it on your phone where he tell's you to. then go back to W/E it is you use to OC then the option's aint blocked anymore.
Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486 click that go to bottom of one of dx's post's in his signature click the X8overclock v004 link. FOLLOW instruction's. DONE
Hope i help'd
If so please Click " THANKS "
Im on gingerdx v018 with undervolt modules(stock kernel), when I try to overclock my phone, it become very unstable(very laggy).. Do I have to remove the underclock module? If so can I just remove the module from the module folder.. thanks in advance!
As far as I know undervolt module causes phone instability when it's overclocked, try to remove that module (undervolt) and see what will happen. You can remove just by removing it from module folder and (I'm not sure but) you have to also remove line from hw_config which contains that module.
I am also using GingerDX overclocked at 710Mhz with undervolt but no problem for me so far

This ROM and it's kernel has OC already since it is based on CM7 by mebitek, look for Cyanogenmod settings, Performance, CPU settings, and set your max freq to your preferred freq under its options.. note that values are preset, you cannot choose 800, 806 is the preset one.. also, not all minis are stable at OCing above 800.. so, if your phone reboots itself at 806, set it to a lower value, 787 or 752..

ahh.. hehehe.. .. what would be the best and stable frequency of its maximum and minimum? .
BTW: thanks for the whereabouts of the frequency settings kitrax.. i really didn't know that my rom has this one.. .. THANK YOU..

no problem.. just play more with the ROM, as what others say. hehe anyway, mebitek's build is speedy already even at default freq.. 710 is enough for me.. min of 245 or 122.. mine is stable at 787 max only.. higher freqs than 787, it reboots itself. Could be different on yours.. just remember, OCing too high will also cause faster battery drain..
ok.. thank you kitrax.. i'll try to play more with the frequency now that i understand what it is.. hehehe .. thank you..

i guess you just have to root your device and use set cpu or no frills like apps (you can get them from playstore)

I thinks thats normal. Thats only an bug, that cm shows you that minimum is 370. The divice is still using 51mhz.

If you need benchmarks, the droid 4 is not for you.

i had xperia pro(its nearly broken) i just want to compare the results to see if they are similar because they are both old phones and i need the qwerty keyboard...and some basic multitasking without lags, it would be helpful if you can give me a screen shot of anutu benchmark of your phone or droid 4, numbers always help to decide when you compare 2 phones.

Antutu v5.2.0 on my Droid 4 with Slimkat 8.8 and Lucize jbx kernel scores 16504 @ 1300mhz CPU / 384mhz GPU, and with the CPU fully overclocked to 1404mhz it scored 17112
1200mhz is stock on the CPU and 307mhz on the GPU.

did you compile it by your self? because i am not able to change the gpu/cpu values with root explorer/terminal
*i flashed lucize wip kernel
if its a custom build by you with oc,can you share it plz? thanks !

It has to be the "JBX" kernel, lucize has decided to remove this file from his post for some reason, I've attached it to this post. It's based off dtrail's JBX kernel for the motorola RAZR, you can flash that kernel to the device too but I found the radio signal level would read wrong, so I have always used this one.

Hi!
Is it possible to use "JBX" kernel with stock ROM? Or maybe only module that allowing GPU overclocking?

You need to be rooted and have a recovery installed like TWRP / safestrap, you install that kernel zip just as you install a third party ROM through recovery. If you just want GPU overclock don't bother, the increase from 307 to 384mhz only increases GPU performance by maybe 5%, it's purposely set to 307mhz stock because the GPU is bottlenecked elsewhere (ie: memory bandwidth), 384mhz increases battery drain and heat without much performance gain.

After much testing I could only get 1391mhz 100% stable, regardless of voltage settings. Could get 1.5ghz to benchmark, but never fully stable. It does speed up the phone quite a bit, but the biggest improvement is simply using a debloated ROM with every APK removed that you can.
