What's the recommended value for overclocking? Low score on quadrant - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I just overclocked 1 step above 1ghz with setCPU. I ran quadrant and i got about 1318 score. I've expected more from a dual core.
Did anyone OC'ed with good results? And what were your settings?

1472 without any issues and -175 mV undervolting (on average) - I get 6500+ in antutu - on Revolver ROM.
Quadrant is a crap - my current Desire gets over 2000 lol.

-175mv avg? What does it mean? And what is your scaling?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

Scaling profile interactive, with screen-off profile active (608 max, conservative).
UV means that most of the values have -175 mV, except highest (-75, -100) and lowest (-50, -25).
See for yourself what your TF can take.

I've only been stable at about 1.4 GHz the second slot for 1.4 GHz and 1.5 GHz are relatively stable with intermittent reboots under heavy load.

Yes, reboots were an issue for me at 1.5+ GHz under heavy load. 1424-1472 seems ok tough so far.

I turn in 1,592Ghz three days ago, no reboot, work nice ... Interactive mode...

it seems like nearly everyone can at least run 1.4. Beyond that is trial and error.

Does stock rom with root allow you to over clock? Using set CPU or rom toolbox. Meaning over clocking supported on stock kernel. Or do u need to flash a custom rom for this? I know my stock Atrix kernel, rooted, wouldn't allow it. Max was still at 1GHz for it's tegra 2 dual core. Itll allow me to under clock though

A different kernel is required for overclocking. I'm using the revolver ROM and the revolver parts app is very convenient for flashing different kernels (has a collection of most popular kernels for TF101), and other settings.

[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.

use cpu master and it will do everything you are wanting it to

i tried cpu master did notice any improvement however cpu overclock app i boosted about 1000 points just wondering cause over all i did not see a noticable difference in using such as quickness or whatever

Overclocking the G2X to 1.5Ghz

If I have CM7 #54, do I need a special kernel or not?
SetCPU is not detecting the frequencies for me
I am using CPUMaster but I have the free version only
What is the best software to overclock automatically?
I also want profiles (Battery temp, battery %, screen off...)
In Quadrant I got 3000 points with 1.5Ghz
Now I only need to find a way to overclock it and have all the profiles and boot overclock work right out of the box
Thanks a lot
Sooooo you over clocked to it to 1.5, but yet you still need to find a way to do it?? Read..... all the answers are in this very section....
Oh by the way wrong section to post.

ok first set cpu will not be able to oc for you. use pimp my cpu you should be able to find it if you do a search. second if you want to oc use faux's kernel for that.

4500 with faux rom 1.2.4 and 0.2.2 kernel.

I used SetCPU before on my OptimusT, and it was actually working pretty good, BUT NOT ON LGE STAR. For now, the best overlocking app for LGE STAR is PimpMyCPU WITH CUSTOMIZED KERNEL.
With FR and Faux's kernel, you can easily get 4000+ on Quadrant.
With GB and its own kernel, I think we just get like 3000+

Oh 1 more thing, T-mobile doesn't release the GB update for LGE Star yet. The CM project is built based on the GB source code only...

Use pimp my cpu, setcpu doesn't let you overclock. It only shows your cpu speed but nothing else.

I got 4094 in quadrant OCed to 1.5Ghz on Ultimate, very impressive considering its a froyo rom nonetheless

I thoroughly tested OC on CM with different kernels. I got the best results with the Trinity kernel. My highest recorded Quadrant score was 4920 and I averaged 4690 over 10 trials with that configuration.

Safe overclock speed?

Is there a maximum "safe" overclock speed?
I've been running mine undervolted and at 1.2 GHz without issue for several weeks now.

no ! cause when you star OC its more than then samsung has planned for your CPU so no!
, but when youf Phone is stable with 1,2ghz than you could use it without any harm!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
Some phones handle handle overclocking better than others, even within a particular line. I was running mine at 1.4 ghz without any issues.
You can keep increasing it by one notch until it reaches to a point of instability. It'll freeze and reboot
I'm running stock myself, but I've heard a few people running stable @ 1.4, with overvolt.

How to "use" kernals

edit: yes I know right after I hit the submit thread button I realized I spelled kernel wrong
I just flashed faux's 0.1.2 1.56 GHz NoHz kernel, and everything worked fine. My question is to do with utilizing the kernel for what it can do. I checked my cpu speeds via adb, and the max speed is indeed just stock. Now, I would love to utilize the 1.56 GHz capability of this kernel, but in the first post of his thread faux says not to use any OC apps and I also remember from reading through another thread (I think the Dual-Core support discussion thread) that he doesn't recommend the OC Daemon either. How are people OC'ing if you can't use OC apps or OC Daemon? I vaguely remember seeing a post/thread once that had to do with manually entering clock speeds, but I can't remember where it was. So my question for this part is how can I get the cpu up to speeds I want to like other people are doing (basically, is there a manual way or some other way I don't know about or is everyone just using OC apps/OC Daemon against faux's wishes)?
This part is to do with governors. I can find a wealth of information on what particular governors are designed to do. "This governor is designed to conserve battery when the screen is off" "this governor is designed for maximum performance" yada yada. What i can't find is how you choose which governor your phone uses. I used adb to check available governors and it gives me "ondemand performance". I assume this means that my phone/kernel is currently using that governor. Cool. But how do I switch to a different governor if I want to? It looks like SetCPU allows you to change governors, but is that the only way?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Shouldnt need oc app with his kernels mine is at 1.56 ever since i flashed it.
On demand is the only one that properly works with dual core processor. Even with an oc app you can only select on demand or performance and you wouldnt want to use that governor since it forces the cpu to work at max frequency at all times. To use oc daemon you need the virtous oc scaling files to select frequencies

Thanks. I'm curious then why faux includes smartass in his thread if on demand is the only one that works properly. I'm also not sure why mine is at stock clock speed, but it definitely is. So is oc daemon the way I should try to bump it up to 1.56?
I believe the smartass governor is supposed to have buipt in profiles like the ones you can make in a app like setCPU. so a cpu tuner would be pointless with the smartass.
And yes i prefer oc daemon to other apps like it. The newest one is like 2.1.3 i think. You are also gonna need the folder "vituous oc" with 6 files governors for screen on and off and min and max frequency. One file for each. Im on ARHD 3.0.4 with 0.1.0 kernal so it already came with the folder in system/etc/virtuous_oc

Freezes on overclock..

I'm trying to get some more juice out of my tablet and even a 1.23 ghz overclock will cause the tablet to freeze up.
Does this fall under "your tablet may vary" type of situation? Cause it looks like my tablet is a piece of crap lol
Possibly or could be the Kernel you are using, or could be the overclocking app you are using
I used Clemsyns Kernel with setCPU and could bench @ 1.6ghz
how to set Setcup to overclock 1.6ghz?

I failed to overclock 1.6ghz. It just works at 1.33ghz. how to set Setcpu??
Not all tf will be able to oc to 1.6ghz. Some don't like to be oc at all. Yeah the YMMV does apply to OC'ing

Damn I'm jealous. Mine benches barely at 1.23ghz. I tried both on the Revolution HD Rom with Daemon app and also using Revolver + Clemsyn v22 + setCPU.
