Hi
I'm wondering what you think is the best custom Froyo ROM. I want to downgrade to Froyo because I am afraid getting called by ghosts p), and I think the stock ROMs are way too slow.
I have been considering "froyo acurarom maximum velocity new line v3", but I think the OC for CPU and GPU are too high. I am reading about people getting constant reboots, in the ROM thread.
Any recommendations based on your experience?
I have always stayed away from Acura ROMs, as I have tried a few and they are not consistent.
Back in froyo, I used thiaiZ ROMs, pretty good ones, though I can't find the links on this board any longer.

When i went back to froyo i used Acura's new v1.3ghz ROM. It was pretty good and fast. CPU was clocked at 1.3ghz.

Ok. Was it stable? I think 1.3 Ghz is way too high overclock. Been reading people getting constant reboots with that ROM.
Stable*
*Its a little unstable if you constantly leave it on 1300mhz, just use setCPU to turn it down to 1ghz stock clock speed when youre not playing games or running cpu intensive applications. it'll idle fine on 1ghz

Ok, nice. Is the stock launcher stripped from this ROM? I would like a stock like, but fast ROM

Does anyone know of some good apps (preferably free) that I can use to overclock a rooted droid charge, with the latest altered beast ROM and kernel?
There aren't any overclock kernels at this point. Its being worked on. Just be patient.

You can try tegrak from the market if you really want oc.
In all honesty, just wait for a kernel to come out that will actually oc. I'd love a kernel that uses voltage control and will wait for that...
Ahh, thanks. This is my first android device so I have no idea what to expect and when
If I can ever get my config straightened out, I was going to look into doing an OC kernel that uses Voltage Control, similar to nemesis2all's kernels for the Fascinate. Still trying to get a working config though.
My opinion though is that OCing the hummingbird processor is useless, and does little for performance on a day-to-day basis and only serves to give you big numbers in benchmarks while reducing battery life.
I mostly used the 1120 step skipping 1000 and scoring serious uv was awesome
Has anyone used any kernels for HTC Sensation 4g (TMO US) above 1.566Ghz?
I am currently using a ROM by Mike1986 and kernel witch took my phone to 1.566Ghz and i am loving it.
However, i am a big OC freak and i would like some pointers on any tested kernels above 1.566Ghz, preferably that work well with Mike1986's ROM as i find them to be most stable our of all i have tried (i have tried 3 different types).
Any input is highly appreciated and welcome. Thanks team.

I honestly don't see the benefits except lower battery life and a warmer device, I doubt you'll notice the speed difference past like 1GHz. All of the higher freqs seem pretty much the same and aren't really worth the bother with, use a governor that accesses higher freqs quicker and you won't be needing high freqs.

What governor would you suggest??? also, i know that when using you phone and maybe even playing games i wouldn't see much of a difference between the stock 1.2 Ghz vs 1.5 or 1.9Ghz but it's all about the bragging rights, lol. I like to go to my geeky friends and slappin’ a higher clock frequency than they have on their poor devices or silly I Phones. Also I have to tell you from my tests I do see Mike1986’s latest 3.6.7/4.1.7 Rom using much less battery life than stock Rom. I have noticed about a 10% improvement, maybe even more.
Also i do see a big improvement in Benchmarks. When i was using stock 1.2Ghz setting i was benchmarking much lower than the 1,5Ghz i am at now.
Thanks again for the input.
The benefit of custom ROMS and kernels, is that they are optimized to run well. Unless the chef sucks, most big name ROMS are optimized and more efficient.
I was running 1.2ghz for a while and whenever I'm playing Snes roms it would FC. After bumping it up to 1.72ghz it never did it again. Although 1.72ghz may be overkill for what I use my phone for but everything seems to be running extremely smooth.

I use conservative(810/192), super charger v6, ultra smooth rosie on 4.1.6. I haven't used benches, but they'll be low on this ROM since I'm assuming it's based on the Sense 3.5 leak for sensation.

Hi
after leaking the GB rom, many custom roms have made from it..
i dont know really which one is better?!!
which is the best rom for daily use?
which one has best Battery life.. optimized ram.. overall speed and stability..
for example there are some Acura rom.. i don't know which one is the best.. there are several topics!
how is battery life in overclocked roms?
i know there was an old topic similar to mine.. but that was about 2.2 roms..
I am currently using Official v21a rom, quite good but I'm not impressed, so if anyone can please specify why they like the rom they vote for it would be pretty nice...
ThiaiZ for me
ThiaiZ GB v2.1 all the way XD
Speed is great, no lag so far, unlike before I updated to this rom.
battery life on original battery is much better than stock froyo and thiaiz froyo roms.
Did I mention im overclocked to 1100MHz, small and noticible improvment with speed and such and as far as i can tell no significant loss of battery life in doing so.
As for stability, when overclocked to 1188 I had 3 restarts over 2 days and now ive change the clock speed to a bit lower (1100 as i said above) i havent had a restart yet so fingers crossed.
To me acura come second, but they have great roms too. Its a close one between the GB acura and ThiaiZ GB rom but I would have to say im a ThiaiZ guy XD
Good luck in your choosing
I actually like stock rom with root best. Sure its Quadrant score is low but my favourite games (icebreaker hockey and Home Run battle 3D) actually runs smooth on that ROM. On Acura and Crime_of_hearts ROMs I had lags in those games.
Stock with root gives me the best user experience. Menus and interface also feels smoother with it.
I've just upgraded to the V21a Euro open and will be testing the O.C.'ed roms in due course when my C.W.M. issues are solved.

I Agree. If you like to brag about high quadrant scores Acura with overclock is best.
But original LG Rom (with root) is the only ROM I have tried that doesn't have small annoying issues such as lag, Force Close and hangs.
Icebreaker Hockey wasnt playable on Acura with overclock even though it had an quadrant score of almost twice the original ROM. Still the original ROM never lags or hangs.
Maybe the CPU works too fast for the RAM and Filesystems?

As some of you might know, the HTC Desire S overclocks very well.
I've done alot of research, and I've found no difference between the MSM8255 chipset our Desire S runs on, and the higher clocked MSM8255T (which runs at 1.4-1.5GHz).
I've created this topic to gather some information on what method you use to over/underclock (built-in, custom, app etc), how high you've clocked your device, what governor you're using, and what temperature you're at.
Right now my Desire S runs at 1.4GHz, incredibly stable, ive stress tested for hours (so far) without any errors, maxing at bout 36,5c temp.
My current method is SetCPU, using 245-1401 interactive scaling.
Please post your findings / preferences / device settings.
I never overclocked my Desire S. Ok sometimes he can be slow, but I don't like overclocking a CPU of a smartphone... Maybe it's because I'm scared to blow him up or something, dunno. I just leave it like it was, in my eyes, the best thing you can do
I'm using OC/UV Beater2 which came in Endymion ROM. My DS is overclocked to 1,2 Ghz and it is very stable, never freezes
But I have a question, what is default undervolt settings? Because I think when I set for example -25 undervolt settings, that will come default setting after a while..
So I dont know what is default voltage... So if someone could tell what is though 122Mhz voltage, I would be happy!
1ghz ondemand. Sometimes 245/768mhz and in games 1.2ghz

Yeah, I've done some research too, and cannot find any differences about the 8255T vs 8255.
Ours are highly capable of going to 1.8Ghz stable.
What are the key differences?

Same CPU 'issue' with the Arc and Arc S ->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396071
That pretty much sums it up, why the Desire S (some - mine?) overclocks so well..
Same thing they do with desktop CPUs.
Like my old C2D E6600 2.4GHz OCs to 3.4GHz without adding volts and running only on air cooling, 48c after 10-12hrs of stress testing with SLI nvidia cards in the case.
All in all, the MSM8255 and MSM8255T could easily be the exact same chipset/CPU, just at different speeds, some tested more extensively than others.
Has anyone tried running speeds above 1.5GHz+ successfully? 1.5GHz should also be doable, as the HTC Flyer has the MSM8255T and runs at 1.5GHz.

Many thanks for that mate!
Been looking and couldn't find much info too!
Yeah, i guess the T stands for being tested more.
My Desire OC's very well. I can go to 1.8Ghz stable for very long.
(I don't usually OC though.)
I tried 2.0ghz too for about 10 minutes with no issues. but I quickly went back to 1ghz incase I had any issues.

My CPU clock is as in my siggy. I don't undervolt though.
I have overclocked my phone to 1.5GHz almost all time and I do not see any problem, it's very fast and snappy. I use Sense roms, CM7 and ICS without freezes or something like that. Battery life is nice for me, 1 or 2 days of use.
I've got mine oc at 1.2ghz and uv .75 on everything using ocuv and has been stable for weeks now with good battery life.

Hi there,
Yes I use setcpu. Tiamat kernel is Undervolted by default which is good.
I'm my experience, I'm getting much better battery life with Tiamat kernel.
Are you on the nightly build or the stable version? I heard a few issues with tiamat on nightly builds, but not too sure!
Also a small note; undervolting doesn't help massively with battery life... the battery gain is minimal. On sense based ROMs, I UV by about 125V and it doesn't make a HUGE difference.
I think tiamat has really good battery llife as it has been exclusively optimised for our 8255 CPU by the brialliant Devs
Hope this has been some help to you!

I'm on latest nighly, which doesn't work with tiamat 1.1.5 (no sound). Nightly fixed some bugs which were crucial for me, so no way going back to stable.
Reason i'm asking: on lowveld's hyperions i got 8-9mA consumption while idle, on CM i'm always at 10-15. The min freq on both is 245mHz, which was suggested as lowest stable so the next difference i thought could be the undervolting... From battery stats i see that phone was not awake...

What bug fixes did the nightlies bring? Please share!
Hmmm... I guess you could just wait for CM 7.2, I think its coming very soon with the bug fixes, so I guess you could go back to stable from there, and use Tiamat.
My lowest CPU clockspeed is 184Mhz on CM (122Mhz on Endymion)
Its very stable for me. No freezes, etc
I use smartass2, so it will throttle up the speed in sleep if 184mhz is too low. When it has many tasks to load etc.
Not to sure how to Manually UV with CM, (as OC beater doesn't work - FC on me)
But on Endymion, OC beater app does the job.

Side note: on sense, i could OC easily to 1.5ghz, possbily more! And it was very stable.
But now with CM7, i OCed to 1.5ghz and it froze... I tried several times too ..
So does software depend on how much the CPU can clock?

Hi, i have searched the forums, but haven't been able to find an answer, simply put i don't believe my xoom is overclocking. I have been testing it with an app called neocore, but have tried quadrant as well. It doesn't matter if i am at 1000 or 1700 Neocore always says that my xoom runs at between 34-36 fps, which is the same as when it was bonestock, quadrant is the same. No change in animation speed or results no matter what i have set the clock too. I currently have eos nightly 77 for 4g on my xoom, I was using the stock kernel that came with the rom, and recently downloaded the.3.0.5 tiamat overclock kernel, which after flashing think it was the same(I am a noob). I was originally trying to use android overclock to adjust my settings, now have completely uninstalled it and using eos's settings, no change. What am i doing wrong, or have missed?
Thanks for any help you can give me
For increased smoothness in animation, etc, I believe it is the overclocked gpu that helps as opposed to the cpu. Not all the eos kernels are overclocked. Quadrant score appears to be meaningless. Believe me, the eos kernels permit overclocking. What governor are you using? Is your setting stable?
I have it currently at interactive, after you mentioned the governer, i put it to performance and ran the neocore benchmark to see what would happen, 38.2. Well if it requires a gpu overclock that would make sense that i am not noticing a difference with the apps i am using. But raises another question,what is a overclocked cpu good for? More apps running at once? My overclock is ALLOT more stable with 77, i was previously on 74. Before it would get glitchy allot more often, and random reboots on anything above 1000. 1400 and i was having to watch the temperature, 1500 seemed to work the best, but still got random reboots (still better than what I got on honeycomb. I still get glitches here and there on 77, but still have yet to get a.random reboot.
Unrelated to my topic, thank you so much for your guide to rooting and romming, i had read a couple others and hemmed and hawed about whether to do it, even though my mouth watered about the benefits, your guide made me clap my hands together and say "let's do this"
