Max safe temp? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's a reasonable max temp to have when overclocking? I'd like some idea so I know what to use in the profiles in SetCPU or other overclocking apps as a safety.

I think I remember reading that going over 47 degrees c can be catastrophic.
Mine never seems to be more than low 30's even when running at 1504MHz

[Q] SetCpu help!!

"Third -(Root Needed) Set CPU. Have had this on my G1 and N1 and it does nothing but save battery. I currently have it set on 216 - 1000 for when the screen is on and the only profile i have is for when the screen is off and it is at 216-216.
(Alternative) Pimp My CPU. I now am using this for my G2x because I am running custom kernal. Personally I like Set CPU better, but do to the fact that Set CPU can't get past 1000 MHz makes it kinda useless for the G2x Tegra 2. "
This is for the thread "Twenty Hour Of Battery Life" When he says he currently has it set on 216-1000, is he using the "Pimp My CPU"? Also where is that set at exactly? Is it set on the "Main-Scaling Driver" When you open up SetCpu? My "Scaling" is greyed out, I can not set it to "OnDemand" or anything, and yes my phone is rooted, it was the first step in that thread. Both Min, and Max go from 122, 128,245, and 528mHZ, so I am confused on this 216-1000? Also When I go to create a profile, and choose "Screen Off", I have the same issue as above, 216-216? What is that??? Be specific, and I am not a stranger to rooting, etc, so help me out, so I can on to the next step and install "Battery Calabration"

Haha What typed is pretty simple to understand. I have the app SetCpu and when you open up, you are at the "Main" Tab, "Scaling" is greyed/blacked out, I can not set it to On Demand or Conservative. My phone is rooted, and SetCpu has Root Access.
Now how come scaling is disabled? Also, when the person who created the thread "Twenty Hour Battery Life" said he currently has it set to 216-1000, what does that mean? how do I set it to that? He also mentioned that he created profile for when the screen is off, and set it to "216-216", I do not understand what that means, and how to set it like that? I created a profile "Screen Off", but I am stuck at how to put it to "216-216"?
Ummmm. Iirc set CPU does not work on the g2x yet. Pimp my CPU should.

Setcpu works fine he needs a custom kernel.. Like mordic or faux..

On my Nexus One here the only thing I have Setcpu do is when the screen is off it goes to min245 max 384. While using your phone Android regulates your processing power based off of what it needs. While Android does that when the phone sleeps I don't want it going above 384. With my Nexus One I usually get around 18hours + of battery life w/ medium usage. I didn't have my G2x long enough to try out Setcpu but IMO only have setcpu regulate your sleepmode

Why do people keep saying this? I guess the author of the app is lying when he says it is compatible and all the people running it successfully are lying also.
SetCpu supports Terga 2 starting with version 2.1.1a
I have no idea where you are getting you info, but you are wrong.

I recall reading it here on xda. But that was over a week ago. Like I said iirc does not mean I'm 100% right.

SetCPU does work with the tegra2 but I am not sure if it is playing nice with the custom kernels made by Faux and Morfic, that is why everyone is using Pimp My CPU
SetCPU works for scaling but not overclocking.
A great free app that DOES work with both of those kernels is CPU Master - find it on the market.
Thanks for clearing that up. I knew something wasn't right with set CPU onthis phone

What are your settings for CPU Master for the Tmobile G2X? I want to get 20+hours at least, I am using Battery Calabaration from the Market and I charged the phone to 100%, opened up the app which required root access, tapped battery calaberate, then unplugged it, that was at 130 or 1:40, it is now 5:35pm, and it is at 76%, not lasting at all

That's great battery life considering its a dual core tegra 2 phone which will always suck alot of battery juice . If you want a 20+ hour device then get a blackberry.
Android phones are known battery leeches. Look into a portable battery charger

Setcpu does support tegra in G2X but currently does not support oc'ing. The scaling is greyed out on mine to but doesn't affect it sd i have seen.
So if your looking for settings use these for setcpu
Profile battery < 25%
Max 500
Min lowest
Reason: save battery amd extend phone usage
Profile sceen off
Max 1ghz
Min lowest
Reason: will drop to 216 if not using and is in idle but will jumo up if processing power is needed
Profile general (main screen)
Max 1ghz
Min 1ghz
Reason: makes cpu run full steam when using

[Q] cpu overclock app

hey guys just rooted transformer and now i am try to get my transformer to 1.6 ghz got supporting kernal, now i am trying to figure out how to actually get it to 1.6 i turned to so max says 1.6 now the min is at the bottom is that how i correctly clock it at 1.6 i was thinking i should move min to 1.6 or just under that.
You don't want the minimum to be as high as the maximum as it will be going flat out even when idling.
Make the min as low as it will go and set the maximum to 1.6. The processor will go as fast as it needs to up to 1.6. You can use something like quadrant to see the improvement.

Summertime CPU governor or Temp throttling?

Like many parts of the world, here in Australia it can get very hot. I would like to have my Galaxy Note automatically slow down when its too hot. I'm thinking this might mean a CPU governor that checks temp as well as CPU load.
If something like this already exists then does someone know where I can find it?
Otherwise I wonder if its not too hard to modify an existing governor to include temperature based throttling.
Currently I use CPU Master Pro to enable an overheat profile when it hits 49°c but you can get days here where the air is that hot! It needs to keep slowing down if it keeps heating up more. Even CPU Master Pro can't do that.

Use setcpu profile.
Make a profile in setcpu, set the rule to if over 40 degrees limited cpu from 200 mhz to 1000 mhz. Its very easy

SetCPU

I know that if you OC/UV incorrectly, it can cause stability issues. But I was wondering does it cause any damage to the phones hardware like battery, etc? And like how can you tell when SETCPU is causing problems?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Well if you OC to high numbers your just stressing the cpu more.Knowing when you have issues is simple getting random reboots,phone getting too hot etcc.
It differs for every phone but undervolting -25 for each voltages works well.
Personally I really don't see the point overclocking to high levels like 1.4 ghz etc,Is up to individual I guess.

Yeah I have been wondering what's the point of OC to 1.4? Does it make that big of a difference in the 4g speed? And cpu speed?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Honestly, there really is no point other than for benchmarks. I, like mt3g, actually underclock the phone to something like 750-760mhz; it runs beautifully smooth.
Other than that, if you game a lot and want to maximize FPS, then overclocking would do that for you.
Doesn't have anything to do with 4g speed afaik. That's entirely reception.
Yeah 4g is about reception and tmobile simply.
I mean I had single core devices like MT4g ,SGS 4g for the most part on a day to day basis transitions to transitions theres not much diffirence in terms of speed. Now for FPS and a few other games you need that dual core.Point is there"s no need to OC a dual core phone!
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
I have had mine OC'd to 1.1 ghz with some undervolts. It is very stable , 10-12 hr battery with medium to heavy use , and ofcourse fast. Took a while to find the best settings.
When I have SetCPU set to 1015 megahertz, that's the same as stock voltage, isn't it?

Changes you might see are battery life but not that much unless you so how mess with voltage. Like other have said you know it effecting stability when its overheating, shutting down randomly, exiting program randomly.

[Q] Safe Overclock

Hi yes im new but not quite a noob :cyclops:
There with that out of the way my overclock settings are 1200mhz min 1600mhz max
so far running great with the HellyBean rom
But how would this effect my phone long term if any and I would like to be able to moniter my cpu temp like I do on my pc
but the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140371&highlight=cpu+temp
has some good apps but they don't say cpu temp just the battery temp unless there interlinked some how
Thanks for looking
No temp sensor on the infuse except for battery.
1200 is really high for a minimum... This should be 100. For performance set governor to ondemand.. This will Max the cpufreq on any load. When idle, freq will drop and save battery and cool phone.
Running for extended periods at 1600 your phone will get very warm to the touch.. Combo of cpu and screen... If plugged into charger that will add more heat.
Battery Monitor Widget is a good app for tracking battery temp and related stats over time.

Thanks ya I figured it was a bit high
Do 100 min and 1400 max
And governor to on demand
Also i set up profiles with set cpu so when screen is off the maximum goes down to 400mhz.then screen on profile the max is 1400.it saves battery

How do you set up profiles?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Use a CPU manager like SetCPU ($). Voltage Control or Antutu CPU Mgr may also have profiles.. Not sure -it's been a while since I used either.

The only ones I found so far that have profiles are pay for but once I get one I think its going to be either ROM manager or antutu
