[Q] ICS Inquisition - running 1500MHz constant (no scaling back) - risk? bug? - HTC Sensation

Is this a bug in the rom, or is it safe?
It's constantly running on the OC of 1500MHz.
Usually the cpu is meant to scale down when idle. Not the case here.
Thanks

Are you using setCPU, system tuner, or any user app to OC?

It's OC'd out of the box
I just downloaded and run CPU MASTER FREE and it shows constant 1500MHz reading.
I think I will have to depart from this ROM (even though it's very good). I am assuming it will kill the already week battery

Try another CPU controller like system tuner, setcpu or no frills. Its not the roms fault.

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.

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+

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.

Overclocking

Hey guys will overclocking drain the battery quicker even with stock voltages?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
Different voltages are specified as stock for different frequencies. As the frequency changes, the voltage does too. Running 1200mhz with the stock 1000mhz voltage will probably cause instability and crashing.

And if increase voltage, the power consumption should also increase.
i haven't played with voltages yet but in my experience the benefits of overclocking are minimal anyway, and they make nexus reboot often and other bad things :/
With the right settings you can get a fully stable and functional overclock, but it is on a per-phone basis due to varying quality of the same CPU during manufacture.

Currently I'm using icup kernel speedy 5 clocked at 1.4 and its been extremely stable. So what your saying is that the voltages automatically increase when I select a higher frequency, because I did not change them manually.

Open NSTools and select Voltage tab. That's the list of "stock" voltages for each frequency.

A CPU governor such as on demand, lulzactive and lazy tells the CPU what clock to be at and automatically change. While reading, it will be at 100 or 200mhz, while playing a game it will be at the maximum clock you tell it to. Saves power this way.

yes, usually 1 GHz is enough , UV or OC also may reduce hardware's physical life

[Q] Benefits of undervolting

What are the benefits of using Undervolt? I see so many big developers using it so what does it actually do and why is it good for the phone?
It uses less battery as you are using less voltage, but may cause instability due to insufficient current required run that clocked speed. Freezes may occur. That's why UV, but don't over UV

Try using -75(the most I go, otherwise freezes may occur). If freezes occur try to low by 25 each time, eg -50,-25 etc. Never see n anyone UV -100

Best overclock value

Hello,everyone....recently I overclock my desire s and thanks to many of you I received many useful information so I want to share impression how overclocking has improved performance and battery to help other like us to know what and how to use overclocking and governor....
So I start ....
I use Viper saga with tweaked kernel 3.x/ondemand with deadline/cpu min.245-max.1410
I noticed that my graphic is very good and everything works like a charm....for example in FIFA12 I noticed that even the shadow of all player are so intense and everything is so clear,it seems that improves my graphic and my phone is faster..I hope that overclocking to 1410 to not damaged my phone.So what configuration do you have ?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
Set the governor to performance. Battery eater though. But u only can choose better battery life or smoother graphics, so make up ur mind and choose one :thumbup:
When playing with overclocking unstick 'set on boot'. So that it goes back to normal once reboot in case of any freeze. Overclock it based on ur desired value, experiment with it, slowly. increase the value step by step. Leave it for a day then increase again. If it freezes then u know ur phone's limit.

i have read that people say it's stable up to 1.5 GHz.
I have set mine to 1.3GHz to be on the safe side.
And set it to,on demand,so it only takes up more when it needs to.
setting it up to high speeds can result in a melt down,draining batteries and will shorten out the life of your phone even when stable for a couple of days so be aware of what your doing...
there is no best value for everyone, some say 1ghz is enough, some say 1.5 ghz is not enough.
so it depends on what you need, its a trial and error thing
u will get a fast response phone but battery life is sucs ... cant complain though

Never a good idea to overclock CPU more than 1.5 GHZ . That is the maximum stable frequency for our processor.

If you want separate screen on/screen off profiles, I would recommend daemon controller app (with andrev_oc installed through the app).
If you want more profiles for different situations, setcpu is probably the only real option.
Setting to 1.3 GHz depends on the kernel you're using, not on the app.

i think your question shouldn't be, "how to overclock", cause apparently you have already overclocked =="
your question should be "overclocking problems"
about your problem, i prefer you to set the performance down to 1.2 again, overclocking actually harms your hardware and is usually dangerous.
If you really want to overclock your phone, with 1.3GHZ, restore back to your stock kernel, and wipe cache, flash, wipe cache again, then reboot, i think this should help
1.2 is more than just fine for me on S2+.
Never had any lag or spike issue when multitasking.

sometimes the device freezes when overloaded with some operations but after overclocking it frozen more than before
I underclock it to 800mhz and it works fine, no lags. A typical daily usage for me: texts, whatsapp, emails (3 accounts synced), Neutron music player (which is said to require 1K mhz), browsing, instagram, occasional youtube, rss feeds.
But then again, I don't play games or watch videos/movies on it. Maybe this is what's causing lags and freezes for you?

I've tried for a day when I first flashed that kernel. Decided that the increased battery drain wasn't worth it.
What about apps, how many do you have? Also, widgets? Should check on them, could be the case of too many of them constantly running in the background.
Edit: Ah, just thought of this. What about the cpu governor and i/o scheduler that you're using

Along with that I also play all the heavy big games like Real Racing 3, Fifa 12, Modern Combat 4 etc. I run all those games from my Ext SD card. Never faced any lag issue. I believe the specs of this phone are awesome and you don't really need to over clock or under clock it. Never freezes for me.

Seriously mate? It's so simple. Just set your desired frequency with the app.
And choose the governor e.g smartassv2, ondemandx, interactivd, etc. But avoid powersave and conservative since you don't want lags and choppy performance. Here's a guide to cpu governors: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017715
