Does anyone know how to make the Droid X go over 1.3 ghz? My quadrant score 2025. I want it as fast as possible.
By the way I know the side affects.

Pshhht! Lucky. Ok now what is a logical thing I could do? Like does having 2 overclocking apps make it faster instead of one? Or should I get a third?

no however if you have advance task manager make sure no unnecessary processes are running so that quadrant can use as much ram/etc as possible, also i found underVOLTing and overCLOCKing it rendered some of the graphics blank making them load "faster" giving it a higher reading, also if ur on liberty 1.5 using the STAGEFRIGHT hack works too

I have the gingerbread link so I really cant get back on liberty like I want to for some gay reason. Why cant users running 2.3.3 get liberty to work?
And plus really want to use your sense theme for it.

Yeah I wish liberty had an option for skins like sense does.
While I'm not sure I get the point in this...
Droid Overclock in the market from Jrummy allows you to set custom frequencies. I have a profile set up for Max performance, at 1.45 ghz. When it came out, there was talk of people going up to 2 ghz if I remember correctly or it could have been a hoax, never looked into it. Definitely Risky, but you did say you already knew that, so don't come crying to back to the forums if you break something.
Stagefright.
It is not just a liberty mod, its a Build Prop mod that is easily edited in the liberty toolbox, you could always just edit the Build.prop yourself. I looked into this a while back with all the quadrant score hype and this removes the ability of the phone to play back video recorded from the device's camera or at least it used to, may have been fixed?.
Not 100% on this one, but I believe Stagefright is just false inflation of quadrant score, not really a performance increase; someone else feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Do you know were I could try the app out before buy it?
amazon
The amazon app market is the only place with "try before you buy" that I know of, but its in a web browser. Not really on the device, so would let you see features but not actually alter clock. Plus im not sure if that app is in the amazon market.

keeeeep gooiiingggg........do you have droid overclock?????
Honestly Quadrant scores are meaningless... If your phone is fast enough for you then you have it. Personally I see no reason to overclock Droid X or any other phone for that reason. A few hundred Mhz isn't going to change much in real world performance. Also you sacrifice battery life when you overclock.
Agreed on Quadrant Scores, however, many people are running higher frequencies with either stock or lower voltage, but doubt anyone is at 1.3ghz or higher without increasing voltage.
Also, with SetCpu, you can set up profiles to keep stock battery life with higher frequencies.

In Jrummys overclock app (Droid x Overclock) , there is the option to go up to 1.45 ghz. (To use the higher settings, go to the settings, then scroll down to "Scaling Frequency Preset" and select it. then go to set scaling frequencies, and select your voltage and speed. best of luck.
I got liberty 2.0.1 installed with stagefight on and my quadrant score is 2500+ with stage fright off my score was 1300 thats with a 1.2 overclock. Btw which is insanely stable compared to Liberty 1.5. For me atleast.
If you really want to see where your phone can run, buy quick clock advanced.from the market. It will test your phone for you to determine how low a voltage and how high a clock speed you can safely run. you can then load presets such as battery saver, balanced, or high speed. If you're on the Gb leak, it will not persist at boot, however

I've read that a program called tegrak overclock can allow you to overclock, but from what I know unless you have an overclocked kernel, you can't overclock
I would like to know if there is a future with this phone.
Currently there are only 2 ROMs working (one of them, the author closed the thread)
I've spent at least one month fixing all the issues of this phone, and by the looks of it it's not quite popular here in USA
I will appreciate responses, since I know that overclocking can give a HUGE boost of speed.
I am thinking in returning my phone and hopefully getting the LG 2GX (Optimus 2X)
Has anybody overclocked their Samsung Galaxy S 4G?

In the defence of the person who built the ROM your talking about, he did not close the thread... a moderator did.
overclocking is currently not an option for this device and only time will tell if it will be.
as for ROMs, Krylon360 of Team Whiskey will be developing more ROMs soon as he is waiting on getting a device to work with.
the LG looks to be a good device... has many features that are better than the sgs4g so i would think its a decent switch. but for me im waiting for july... the HTC and sgsII will be be out by that time and I can choose the cream of the crop.

Any idea when it will be released?
And what price it will have?
If the phone costs around $600, I would buy it
Anything over it I'd guess it's overpriced.
the one thing that I DO NOT LIKE about the Galaxy S 4G is the lack of Flash for the camera
I'd say for a $500 device adding a $10 flash somewhere in the phone would be a good idea
worked great..quadrant score went up also..seems alot faster..thanks alot! this shouldnt do no harm to the phone right? im new to this kind of stuff so kinda nervous.

i just flashed mine to v2.2 and did the quardrant score and it went down .. did i do something wrong? did u delete the bloatware? running anything else?
As long as u watch out for the temperatures you should be fine
Even if I break the unit I still have warranty on this
Plus I'll be returning this phone anyway
I'll test Quadrant right now

When setting Profiles,
Do you have all of them default to "Charging"?
For scaling do you have them default to "Conservative"?
Do you leave all the Min at default 100000?
Do you leave all the priorities set at default 50?
This wont work due to there is no kernel that allows OC yet for the SGS4G. Ill work on building one after i get CWM and Black Ice going for the device.

It seems to work and it's also listed as supported on the list of devices in the market. I've only used Quadrant standard so far and was getting higher benchmarks.
On another note. Can't wait to get my TW fix when you get Black Ice working on our phones.
Can you upload the presets so I can just load it please ans thanks

A few comments.
1) Some SG4G's don't like 1.3 gig. I'm finding that at 1.2 gig at a high and 200 meg at the low, it's the most stable...at least for my particular unit. Your mileage may vary.
2) I'm using the "Temp >" profiles for all the settings.
3) I suspect that the reason for why it's wonky for some and works great for others is due to the fact that there isn't a true overclock kernel for it. We're taking potluck as to whether it works or not.
-Steve
I would take a word of advice from Krylon. The Kernel that is on our phones is not set up for this to work correctly. The app may support our phone but, our kernel doesn't yet.
I wouldn't recommend doing this. Wait for a compatible Kernel. It will happen but when your phone gets hotter than it was meant to, things on the mother board get loose and you have a very expensive paper weight.
Secondly, quad scores aren't that accurate. Meaning a single piece of code can tell the quadrant app to read higher than its actually running. The phone may run a little faster but its not what it will be with VooDoo lagfix.
This phone should get a true quad score in the mid 900's stock. With the right kernel, and voodoo lag fix (ext4) this phone should get around 1750-1850. That is without overclocking at all. it will have better battery and you won't overheat your phone .

I thought that Voodoo lagfix wasn't applicable in the SG4G because of the fact that the SG4G doesn't use an abnormal file structure. Or am I wrong?

I think the only real speed difference is with the browser. My vibrant / and sgs 4g get similar quad scores when the vibrant has voodoo disabled.

I have found this hack in the Thunderbolt android development thread in some ROM, so I decided to shared with you guys
- Download the attached file. Unzip the file.
- Push the unzipped file in xbin
adb push uber_quadrant /system/xbin
adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/uber_quadrant
- Install Quadrant (Advanced or Basic)
- Execute the pushed file.
adb shell /system/xbin/uber_quadrant
- Run Quadrant and be amazed by the score.
Mine is attached without any overclocking.

Yes exactly that is the point, these benchmarks should not measure performance of any ROM rather its usability should be the judge.
This is what is in the file:

why does it shows this? i see absolutely no relation to benchmarking. this is faking results. benchmarking is an objective messure of a speciffic (or a range of specific) performance aspects. in fact benchmarking is the only way to messure improvement.
the problem rarely lies wihtin benchmarking but most time at the user that does not understand the benchmark and false concludes from the results.
but in this case this has absolutely nothing to do with the often heared critics about benchmarks.
edit: the script that gets executed simply tricks the io system benchmark.

Overclocked or not, that scores weak my friend, i've had my dhd get over 3000 OC'd.
For whatever reason the advanced quadrant gives you better scores, however neither of them offer an actual reallife score which means your phone still runs the same, kind of pointless, no offence.
I've never really understood the fascination with benchmarks so excuse my ignorance, but is this not like writing 300mph on the speedo in your car and then getting all excited when the needle hits it?

2500 is not possible with stock...
anyway, to get 2000 and a bit above you have to switch the cpu governor to performance. to do this you need root and setcpu. with the default ondemand governor this is not possible.
but do not keep performance governor for daily use! it keeps your cpu freq at max all the time.
Lmao! That's hilarious!

No idea. Have you tried taking a TBU and (maybe even clean) install 2.6 and 2.6.1 (patch over 2.6)?
PS: what mods did you choose? And how much did you manage to get when in Performance Mode?
Low score... it used to be pretty damn high for the TF700T... times change, I guess

Where do you want to be with benchmarks?
Are you wanting high numbers or are you good with smooth stable UE?
its well documented, quadrant can be fooled, you can have a custom rom thats built specifically for quadrant and it will bench much higher than other roms but in real use its much slower. Go for smooth and stable. Basically, just use your tablet and if you like where its at dont complain, quadrant is just a number, theres no FEELING behind it. Higher number does not always mean better experience.
6200 with force GPU rendering on is great! How does it feel to use?
Thanks for the responses guys
I was thinking if i wipe it completely and do a clean install it would be better, sounds like a good idea anyway
i was comparing my scores to what everyone else was saying and what it showed in the thread for that rom
i always ran quadrant in performance mode and made sure i had more than 400mb free of ram
i stayed with some default setting on the DPI and launcher, but i chose clemsyns kernal with the GPU at 700
and i left fsync enabled
Some people said it hit 7000
if it doesn't matter i wont worry about it
but i will say my tablet is much quicker then before, i have a few hiccups that i believe are caused by some apps
is it possible that apps in the background can cause the low scores?
i used to get around 32k in antutu and around 18k in quadrant before franco kernel r33 but now i am getting around 24k and 11k respectively i highlt doubt this is due to kernel (i didnt screw up anything (no custom roms nothing...)) can some confirm this ?? plzz

This bit is the only thing you should be caring about...
The 'score' is meaningless. Let it go, uninstall any benchmark apps and don't bother running a test ever again.
Put it this way...if you suddenly scored 234069823987693827469823764 after flashing a new kernel, but performance and battery actually got worse, which one would you prefer?

Hi,
Franciso explained that he had decreased the CPU temp limit before thermal throttling, that could explain your lower score (earlier thermal throttle)... Check also your max CPU freq.
Let cool down your phone before you run Antutu and see, or play with the thermal settings (raise a bit the CPU temp before thermal throttling, core also).
The user is in its right to know why he have a lower score in benches between two different version of a kernel, whatever if a bench is useful or useless... Obviously if all is smooth and run perfectly for you, it's the principal.
nexus 5 is high end device, benchmark score doesn't effect the performance of device using any kernel.
i never experience any lag on my nexus, i always get different score in antutu.
r32 I got around 32k with antutu now I get around 29k on r33 but battery life is so incredible I'm willing to sacrifice benchmark points useless in day to day use .... isn't benchmarking moslty about bragging?
thank you very much
