I've an ARM processor which is capable of going upto 600Mhz. But the recent 1.6 to 2.1 update from the manufacturer changed the got the frequency down-scaled at 480Mhz.
I've rooted my Android phone, and now even if I try to set the maximum frequency anything beyond 480MHz using SetCPU using the slider, the "current max frequency" shown in green-color, refuses to go beyond 480MHz.
I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that the current kernel which came with the update doesn't allow frequency to go beyond 480Mhz.
So, can anyone help me, with how to change the frequency back to 600Mhz?
No one can help!!
Atleast can anyone help me identifying the current ROM for my phone?
And since this is an uncommon phone, I would like to know, how to determine which ROMs I can I try on this device?
Perhaps you should provide some useful information. You haven't even identified the phone in question and you expect people to tell you what ROMs/kernels you can run.
I bet it's the Optimus Boston a.k.a. Gigabyte GSmart G1305 "Codfish".
Hey guys, this is my first post.
I would like to know if there is a way to overclock the Nexus One, running OS 2.1-update1 on Sense UI (MoDaCo, I believe).
I recently rooted it so that I could get Sense, but I noticed that my MFLOPS rating dropped from about 32 to 6 now.
I'm just wondering if there is a kernel out there whichh would let me overclock it to about 1.4 (I saw this number in the comments section of setCPU in the market).
Please get back to me soon so that I can resolve this.
ONE MORE NOTE: I heard that there is a way to download setCPU for free somewhere in XDA, but I couldn't find it. Anyone know of a link?
Reserved......
Can anybody built somenthig for this kind of CPU?
A lot of people we've chinese cell phones with Android and MTK cpu (I've MTK6515), and after rooted it, its impossible to overclock with any Overclocking aplication, or install a Recovery, or install a ROM.
I need your help, because I think we're many with China cell phones and china tablets who are in the same situation.
Thanks for all and your all developing work.
Anybody else?
Yeah , i have the same problem ( star a5000 with mtk6516 platform) . I rooted it with Z4root app and installed setcpu but i cant overclock it . Any ideas ?????
Usually overclocking requires a kernal which has been modified from stock. If you don't have a kernal with OC frequencies added in, then setcpu (or similar app) will not be able to access higher frequencies than the stock ones.
Hope this helps.

Thank you, but is there any option to improve that phone ?? Maybe wait and install custom ROM will help ??

i have an A5000 GBA emu runs great but NES, GBC & SNES emus run like crap, someone knows to solve it? also angry birds looks awful, the procesor isnt so slow at least reading the specs that said it has about 415 mhz, maybe the firmware was the cheap thing...
Me, me, me me too!
Well there is a LOT of people buying from china these days and I am one of them.
The MTK6515 in in my h7000 and Im starting to experiment with it, about to root it and so on, but lets face it this processor REALLY SUCKS bad time.
I belive there is some way to improve performance via OC but really doubt it will be much of a diference as some one said, it really strugles to run angry birds at its lowest resolution.
WE NEED SOME HELP jajaja but Im fairly hapy with my chinese HD7 jajaja
China phone ID500
Yeah!!!!
I also bought a phone with MTK6516 CPU running Android 2.2 then i rooted it by UniversalAndRoot, also installed Busybox and it works great but any mod ROM could be installed neither any OC performed. Also now I see newer phones on the web with same CPU running OS Android 2.3 so.... it's possible an upgrade!!!
The problem is how to do it?!?
Can someone of you skilled guys help us "china-droid" users???
Thanks in advance to everybody will improve this toys

@ianaxelbay:
Are you sure about the mtk6515 I googled the model of yours and always in specs mention about mtk6516.
I have ordered this phone:
http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...M-radio-3-5-Inch-Multi-touch-wholesalers.html
it has mtk 6515 clocked at 1ghz. Has anybody bought something similar to it? I am wondering about performance. Theoriticaly looks great but...
I have also same China QMobile A100 with Android 2.2 and Mtk6516 CPU with 415Mhz. I Really need to overclock it. Anyone can create a CUSTOM KERNEL for these Mtk6516. So that we could overclock our phones and enjoy games and much more. Please help and make this issue important!!
BEST OF LUCK!: good:

Hi. I have a rooted HTC One X international version with the quad core processor supposedly. 1.5ghz but when i checked quick system info it says my cpu clock is only running at 1.4ghz. I have set cpu installed and i have ensured that ive set the min and max to 1.5ghz but still it remains at 1.4ghz. I dont know if it was like this before i rooted my device or before i installed setcpu, or if this is just the way its supposed to be. Please advice.
If ever this is unusual, could someone tell me how to fix it? Should i reflash the kernel or bootloader?
Thanks in advance for ur help.
You might find what you're looking for in the One X forums.

Tegra 3 in only 1 core go to 1.5 if you use 2 or more cores, then go max 1.4. Thets to save battery and dont get overheat.

Hello, I was wondering how to change the processor to one that has a speed of at least 1.3 GHZ.
I was trying to overclock it and get cyagenmod 9 but, when I had problems rooting, even with expert help, it was a no-go. So I am wondering if I am able to do this?
