I have a Droid X, a Droid Charge and my brother has an incredible 2. We both have chainfire installed and for some reason verysingle game plays many times smoother on the htc with the adreno 205 than on my charge with the sgx 540? any reason for that? even the games that are coded for tegra devices run on his so much smoother. i tried a game called falling fred, lags some on my charge, runs super smooth on the inc2, i have a galaxy tab 10.1 also runs super realy nice on that, and on my droid x it runs about the same as the charge. there is nothing wrong with my charge because ive played with 3 or 4 of them and they are all the same way. Any solutions?
Sound like you need some voodoo lagfix in your life lol... Are you running any custom roms or have custom kernals installed

I agree with cold... Go for some lagfix
Charged up post!
i have voodoo lagfix courtesy of peanutbutta jelly time i really need a way to fix it
The SGX540 in these Samsung devices are underclocked severely. They are more capable but they can stand quite a bit of overclocking. Some devices come with the same gpu clocked at 385Mhz instead of 200Mhz.
The lag fix is ok but once we get a CM7 build it will look sloooooow. Been there done that.

I think I would rather see CM7 implementation if for no other reason than their dedication to constant updates. And they are all pretty much the same mtd based thing. OMGB shouldn't be any faster than CM7 and it lacks features.
Just my experience from the fascinate. Omgb and omfgb *seemed* smoother, not that cm7 was slow. And they pump out updates for their roms pretty regularly. If you don't think they're dedicated, then you don't know t3hh4xx0r.

And what fun it was. Glitch kernel allowed gpu overclocking. **** was intense. 1.6ghz cpu overclock and aggressive undervolting were commonplace due to the stability that mtd brought.

It's not that I think they aren't dedicated, but the system in place for CM7 updates is far more structured and doesn't depend on one or two peoples' dedication.

Yeah, I could never overclock my Fascinate much before MTD. I was pulling 3000 quadrant scores at 1.4Ghz with a 233Mhz GPU clock speed i believe on the Glitch ML kernel and it actually run a good 8-10 hours that way to boot.
i refuse to have a phone that runs at less than its capabitlities. we need that gpu overclock! any devs can port it?

Then do something about it yourself. Glitch is an aosp kernel so porting isn't really an option until we have aosp roms to make use of it so that's quite a ways away. A gpu overclock may be possible on tw but I haven't ever heard of it being done and the devs capable of working on it probably have enough on their plate as it is. But who knows, maybe someone will pick it up I guess we'll see.

Does anybody know what it takes to overclock the GPU in the Droid Charge? I generally think that CPU overclocking is pointless, but GPU overclock should help terrain data in Google Earth. I have lagfix installed and verified working.
I am currently on the underclocked PBJT kernel. I assume I would have to migrate to the overclocked PBJT kernel, but I don't know of a way to control GPU clock from there. Ideas?
After installing the OC PBJ kernel, download and install an app called Voltage Control.

There's a difference between the CPU and GPU. Voltage control only changes the CPU clockspeed. You would have to ask imnuts if it's possible to oc the GPU.

No. If you see the FPS waver, then it is not at its FPS cap, therefore it would be pointless to raise the cap.

RAM makes everything better and it's the reason why certain apps seem to be quite slow(n64oid, gun brothers, etc). If those ****heads over at Samsung would've added more RAM this phone wouldn't have any problems, sure a better processor and a notification LED would have been nice but the only thing actually needed was the RAM.

The requirement for more Cowbell aside, does anybody if this is possible? The Galaxy Nexus will have the same GPU but clocked at 384 MHz vs 200 MHz on the Droid Charge.
I am curious if they have somehow reduced the process size or added extra cooling capacity, because that is huge difference.
In any case, it makes me think that GPU in the Charge could use a bump up without causing issues.

Holy dead thread batman! At any rate we can't increase GPU clockspeed because it's probably controlled at a hardware level, rather than variable by kernel.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
I do believe the glitch kernel on the fascinate does include gpu overclocking. No idea if that could ever be implemented on the charge. If it could it would probably have to be an MTD based kernel like glitch that is currently for MUIU and Cyanogen roms.

All of my phone gpus have clockspeed dials on them.
And not to be even more of a smartass but the kernel is in fact the exact piece of software that interacts with the hardware so you kind of contradicted yourself.
It has been done with glitch kernel. Haven't seen any tw kernels that support it.

I meant that we don't have anything in the kernel that can adjust the clockspeed. I don't really know about any other phones since this is my first smartphone. I just say what I feel is correct. And yes, we may eventually be able to control it through an AOSP kernel, but we don't have that right now, so I don't think it's relevant information.

Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches?
I came from the Fascinate and the Glitch Kernel with CM7 was really rocking. If we ever get GPU overclocking it would very likely come with the same combo or a Glitch CM9 combo either of which is a long way off.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like what we would need for this to work is a working ASOP kernel, thus we would need an official Gingerbread OTA update first (maybe not 100% necessary, but it should be easier?) in order to base the kernel on?
Even with a working ASOP kernel, I assume that it would have to be specially modded to allow GPU control.
Not that I expect CM7 or CM9, I'm pretty happy with the latest leak, but it seems that CM7 or CM9 would more or less be a requirement for this to work? I hear that MIUI is not in development for the Charge because the lack of LTE in China.
Keep in mind that the Charge is my first smartphone so I'm sort of a nube.
Big thanks to the devs who turned this phone from crap into gold!
Hey guys, I was running 1.782GHz for a while but I would get touch wiz freezing on me from time to time.
Do you guys think this is oc related?
I just reverted to one step lower than that, whatever it was.
Hopefully that fixes it.
I'm running sky ics rom and cymbaline kernel. Using an oc script.
Thanks!

It could be the voltage settings. If its not getting enough juice it can start to stall and worse case reboot. If you can rule that out it could also be GPU clocks if they're clocked too high.
I find that our skyrockets don't do well with mix and matching kernels and roms that haven't been tweaked to work together. You may want to try embryo 4.1 if using mohan's kernel. He write both and the integration is almost flawless, and the rom is a touchwiz base which helps our finicky skyrocket with stability. What do you need the overclock for?
Sent from my SGH-I727R
I really don't need the oc. I just wanted at least an oc since I love overclocking lol.
If I get any more problems with volts/oc ill see if I can edit the oc script to give more volts.
Thanks guys.
No problems thus far
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
fair enough, I don't really like to oc due to lack of cooling for these phones, and they seem to run best if not too over done. been using deadline for a governor though and find its far more stable and efficient (great battery/performance) than cfq, so that's my only other recommendation for cymbaline.

Ya but the thing is this benchmark is crap. You may get higher score but the phone isn't really any faster then it was before also AOSP don't have much running compared to Sense. Well ya changing governors will change the score because some will keep clocks at full speed, some with ramp up the clock quickly and others slowly or not at all. Clearing cache is not a way to make the phone fast but slow it down lol.

You really should just stop wasting time doing a benchmark when it as no real meaning when they easy to cheat with kernel "tweaks". Also since you might not know since you not been here long but up about the start of this year AOSP scores was crap compared to Sense yet AOSP wasn't slower.
