Do you know a method or an application to force CPU speed to 1Ghz or at least how to control the current speed?
I find with TCPMP that, after a boot, CPU is running at maximum speed. After a few minutes it goes down to 500 - 400 Mhz and it does not raise anymore.
With 1 Ghz TCPMP runs smooth with GDI (the driver that let me use subtitles), with 500 Mhz it begins to stutter.
Another question, do you know a version of TCPMP that let you use subtitles using directdraw drivers?
Thanks
I want to know this ,too.
How to release our HD2's CPU speed ?
I wish HD2's CPU can work in full speed all the time.
Don't worry about battery issue, If it can be control .
My xoom is on tiamat 1.4.4 and overclocked to 1.6 max and 400 something to min on interactive governer. After some stadby when i open the xoom and start playing videos, cpu stays at minimum and video files play choppy (and sometimes GUI)(even after 5 minutes of playing). When i set the minimum to a high value like 800ish, videos start playing smoothly again. Then when i again reduce the min value to 400, video player keeps using higher valued cpu levels and keeps on playing smoothly.
My guess is video player cant wake the cpu at the begining or something..
Question1 : What is the default governer of honeycomb! Does it use steady 1000mhz or scales itself between its own min and max values. (is it SetCpu's fault!)
Question2 : Is there a way to assign profiles to specific applications and tasks like
"when i play videos use 1000mhz minimum!".
I know "on demand" governer and some others are just for this but apps are not using them as they should. Sometimes SetCpu needs some "push" to give more juice.
Or is it just me!

Not sure about question 1, but Tasker can set specific CPU freqs and governers for specific apps.
so far i failed to understand the mechanics of tasker..
can someone explain? The existing manual is not helping much.
I figured it out! This tasker is amazing!!
i made a preset to control cpu with tasker to:
When i start moboplayer
-set cpu min to 912
-set cpu max to 1200
-flash "video mode on" text
When i exit moboplayer
-set cpu min to 412
-set cpu max to 1600
-flash "video mode off"
working great now..
HD video playback is smooth as silk!
Max out processor, interactive. I use no-frills setcpu, because setcpu screws around too much. No-frills gives me super smooth performance.

I agree. SetCPU is awesome for my phone (can give greater performance AND greater battery life if you use profiles), but it does wreck **** on the Xoom. Been using No-Frills for a while now, and it is much smoother.
How do you setup the "if heat goes over xx then reduce cpu to xx " part with nofrills.
As far as i understand nofrills dont have any settings or profiles.
What if cpu overheats?

The xoom will probably shut itself down before it gets too hot.
I should play around more with the different governors. Right now I'm using System Tuner to OC/OV my Xoom. I'll try No Frills next. SetCPU was on my SGSII until it started shutting itself off at random, sometimes requiring a battery pull to get it to power on again so that app will stay far from my Xoom.
Can anyone recommend any other (preferably free) apps that can OC/OV/UV and set profiles?

CPUMaster is my favorite.
I've tried to play some fullHD movie on my senny via Mxplayer
however I experienced slight lag(sometime happen)
Im on ICS 1.5ghz kernel, not XE user, used system tuner pro with sd card tweaked 6mb cache
I couldnt see the bitrate of the film but it has 30frames/sec and play smoothly on my lap.
Anyone have solution for this problem?
I've tried ARHD, Darkforest, Insertcoin with 1.5ghz kernel (hasnt tried stock one yet)
thanks for your time
I am experiencing a bit of lag on subway surfers compared to my one XL. I got FPS Meter, an app to draw fps and it displayed a constant 15 FPS. Im currently on stock rooted 4.1.2 with CPU at 1.5ghz. Force GPU to draw 2D is also on.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Vsync is disabled through 'Pimp My Rom' and I noticed no improvement whatsoever. Note this is a fresh install with no other apps apart from MX Player, which isn't running.
Hi,
I'm currently using a 7.1.1 rom and I can't watch a full movie. I charge this to 100% and I watched the john wick 2, battery didn't last even that much. Brightness was at medium. Used MX player.
Can anyone tell me about the roms you are using? at least a rom that last for 5 hours in video playback
Go for elemental X kernel...!!
I'm running it with pure Nexus 7.1.1
ROM doesn't matter, change your kernel settings. Open the CPU monitor in developer options and tune your governor to keep the CPU as low as possible without the movie skipping. Or set up a different governor profile for movies that limits the CPU to 2 cores max and 1ghz.
