Overclocking Transformer?

I recently had my charger break down me so I haven't used my TF in over a month. I finally got around to ordering a new charger, while I was at it I downloaded the newest version of Revolver (3.2) and parts. I also used parts to install Chesmyn v20 and went ahead and flashed that. Then I logged back in my TF and bought SetCPU (as you can see I am feeling generous ) and set my cpu to max which was 1.68 or something or other. Everytime I try to overclock my TF past 1.0ghz it just freezes up. I have it set to interactive and I just really wanna overclock! I have tryed flashing to Chesmyn v13 and still no beans! It just freezes! So is there any reason for this?
Lastly, is there any support for Netflix or Hulu with Revolver yet? I saw a post about it working in stock ROMS as of August, I followed through to the download but the APK doesnt seem to wanna work. So maybe someone could get e a valid link.
Thanks!

UPDATE!
I set SetCPU to 1.3336ghz and it has been running fine for the past 5 minutes
Do I need to up my voltages as I would need to with overclocking my PC?

One last thing!
Is there anyway to disable zoom in Dolphin HD for Tab? Everytime I try to 2 finger scroll I always end up zooming in or out (mainly in) a small amount.
Sorry to bother! thanks again!

the crashing is proboby due to an imperfect chip and theres bothing you can really do about it. Try a factory reset and a reflash but it might not do ypu any good. Netflix works in the us but not Canada and I believe there is a way to get July working but I'm not exactly sure where it is. Probobly in general or themes and apps

im @ 1.5944 running revver 3.2 w/ clemys 18a kernel. i agree with the above poster, sounds like you got a **** chip. happens a lot with the TB and their vast diferances in tolerances. step up incrmentally and find the highest lock you can achive without borking. also, get rid of setCPU, use scriptFusion or another script instead...

Yeah but it it worked before why doesn't it work now ? Thanks though, I will try reinstalling 3.2

For Netflix, give the .apk in this thread a shot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
I'm running Revolver and have had no issues with it.
About your OC -- it's weird that your chip could handle the full 1.6ghz before, but not now. Mine is unstable above 1.33ghz, so that's where I run it.

[Q] Defective Shift or Cyanogenmod Issues?

Hello, I have a launch Evo Shift (almost a year old now), and am running Cyanogenmod Nightly 255 with a2ext and a ton of apps installed (above 200 apps running from a class 10 32gb card, dalvik cache on the card), and ScaryKernel with the smartass governor (max 1497 MHz). However, I sporadically get random reboots, gps not working (requiring a reset), camera reboots, and the rare "turn off" bug where it turns off while sleeping. In addition most recently I have a bug where every time that I reboot into clockworkmod recovery to back up , it resets almost all of my phone preferences.
I absolutely love cyanogenmod and appreciate the hell out of it and the work that has been done, but I'm wondering if these bugs are either due to running cyanogenmod nightlies or if I have a defective phone. I also have tried Sense-based roms such as Mikshifted, but the Sense memory overhead is just too large for me. I have no worries if the phone is defective, since I have sprint insurance and can wipe back to stock to exchange it. However, going through all the exchange, re-root and restore procedure would be a pain if its not necessary. Does anyone have any thoughts or advice?
Thanks in advance.

I don't think this is s shift problem. I experienced this myself and even had my phone replaced by sprint because i thought it was. Try not overclocking and see if that helps. Another way to test if its the phone is to see if you have these same problems on a sense rom

I would say try using shift deck, U.K.E, or any cm based aosp roms and see if the problem persist. If it does then its your phone, if not then its a bug in the nightly which is the reason its a nightly because bugs could be there

From what you've stated above I don't think it's a phone, or Rom issue. Seems like you have way too many apps. You have to keep in mind a lot of those apps run in the background. Which uses up Memory, which slows the phone. It will also in xtreme cases cause Random Reboots, Lag, even Random app shut down. I'd remove at the very least half of those and see how it performs. Even 100 apps is still a bit much.

Great, thank you for the advice. Even though I have been monitoring my free memory and running programs, I'm kind of a pack rat so I think it's just time to streamline my programs.

Yes definately loose a lot of thoose apps. Might even want to try a fresh reflash, no apps. Then just add what you know you'll definately need. Willing to bet it's not even half.

Which governor are you using with Scary kernel? You should be using Scary gov not any of the others.
Min mhz 300+
Check this first.
If that wasn't your problem run fix permissions from ROM manager and reboot.
If that wasn't your problem boot into clockwork recovery, format /system, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache, reflash cm255, flash crashv2010's gapps, reflash scary kernel, reboot, wait 10 minutes, problems solved.

This is your problem! ONLY USE Scary, Toasty or Batterysave!
Scary = smartass
Toasty = performance
Batterysave! = conservative
ALL OTHER GOVS WILL NOT BE STABLE!!!

Depends how large the gap between your min/max cpu is.
What's your min max?
Try widening it with smartass and see how stable it is.

Well I guess I'm the exception . Dodge Kernel v1.6 Ext.4 , smartass setting , 1.92gHz Max , 245gHz Min. Can run that all day, but usually don't. I use the default settings 1.2gHz Max , 245gHz min. The battery life is better at the default settings.

Yes definately know what you mean. Out of six mine is the only one that will do 1.9gHz . All hardware 004. Out of the others two will do 18gHz, but only one is stable. The rest max out at 1.5gHz, after that they're not stable.

Thank you for confirming my opinion as fact. I will reference this thread again later if I need to.

i would get new rom manager that fixed some of my problems also try reloading cm7 and put back on you phone with titanium backup

Terrible I/O - TF700t

Got it for 4 days now. Terrible speeds when downloading content not because of the WiFi but the storage.
It is very difficult to use any torrent client as the whole tablet stalls. Very difficult to install big games as MC3.
Tried both default and rooted, changed the IO scheduler - no big difference. Copying files from PC takes a LOT of time as well. Seq read 17 MB/s , seq write 4 MB/s ...
The really bad thing is that the whole tablet becomes unusable - even the mouse pointer does not work when there is a long IO operation going on.
Any thoughts since the problem is not solved for the whole Transformer family?

Try plugging a USB disk to your dock or use the SD card. Works faster for me.

Some benchmarks ..

I'm getting similar results in the benchmarks mostly, so let's consider it a standard for the Infinity
I would be worried, however, about 0.5 MB/ write speed! If you get it constantly and even with sio scheduler, I would definitely consider having the device replaced on warranty terms. Something like 10x that speed could be considered a (lower end of) standard on TF700.
---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------
Try different (benchmarking) programs however. Androbench has been said to give false results on some devices.
I've done a simple test using SD Card Tester now (500MB test file), in balanced mode it's somewhere near 8 MB/s write* and 18MB/s read for the internal storage on average, and 5 MB/s W + 17 MB/s R for the microSD card (AFAIR the best results were for the full-size SD card, something about 15/30, but I'm without the dock at the very moment).
Hope this helps.
* it starts with 17, but then decreases because of the numerous lags (happening all the time when writing bigger files on the Infinity, sadly)
---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------
Ah, and don't compare it to phones
See http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...hmark-11-modern-devices-compared-in-13-tests/ as reference point (originally posted by shinzz).

Noticed this major problem as well.
Basically it can be triggered by uploading lots of files using wifi to the tf700 running airdroid. Then using the stock music player it will lag like hell...
Then again, if you run airdroid on another android device and the launch a internet browser (either stock or dolphin) connect to that device running airdroid, basically becomes totally slow but this maybe caused by the browser itself....
Not to mention the kernel constantly clocks the processor in range 100MHz - 500GHz this further, push I/O to even more constrained.

The CPU speeds can be changed by using different CPU governor. In my opinion the default "interactive" governor actually performs pretty well (performance/battery life).

It has been referenced in several other threads that, indeed, the I/O of the TF700T is absolutely abysmal. That 500 kB/s is really, really low, though. I have the lags all the time, and several movies files have stopped playing many times during my (long) commute viewing tries... I really hope that custom ROMs can better this by a fair margin. though I don't know to what extent it has been the case with the Prime's similar issues. Gotta go and nose around in the AndroWook thread a bit...

Full-size SD card in the dock: 20 MB/s write (worth noticing it actually started with 45 MB/s, which is the card's limit, so the lags take in again), 12 MB/s read, same test, pretty weird, as I got 30 MB/s read there before.
With 2GB file I got 15-16 MB/s write & 10 MB/s read on SD, not sure why reading speed dropped that much, but I think I tested it on NTFS a few days before and now it's re-formatted to FAT32.
Edit: So I've just tried the last test with NTFS-formatted SD card and it showed 16/10, so no clue why it dropped this much since my earlier test a few days ago!

I didn't format my card as it came pre-formatted. I'm going to empty it and format it in device and see if that helps. (The card that has been in my SGS2 for about a year performs very badly.... no, let me rephrase that... doesn't perform at all in the TF700T. Let's see if we can get it to shine a bit.

Don't you think somehow caching is involved as the file copying goes steady and then stalls and seems to stop for a whileand then goes again. As if a buffer fills in and one has to wait for it to be persisted in the storage?

Yes, I do think it has to do with (shared?) caching, and yes, the most frustrating aspect of it all is that the damn thing just hangs up sometimes.

Mine doesn't lag when downloading or anything... but updates will fix the many small problems

I have two questions
1) Why isn't ASUS bombarding us with promises that they are looking into it, in an attempt to retain market share?
2) What are the chances of this being hardware related, and thus never getting fixed?

1) They're probably quite busy with the Nexus at the moment. Furthermore, seeing that the Prime suffers from very much alike I/O issues that haven't been fixed as far as I have been able to find out, they probably don't care as much as we would like.
2) No one can tell at the moment, but let's keep our fingers crossed that it is software-related and thus fixable by either ASUS -- eventually -- or by custom ROMs. It seems that some custom ROMs for the Prime have significantly improved on its I/O (e.g., AndroWook).

but can a software update fix the camera clicking issue. i would guess that has to do with the hardware.

Possible Solution
If the I/O errors are linked to the minfree then I think the v6 SuperCharger could help. I have posted a link in the Infinity Development thread since it can also be embedded into a ROM.

On the SGS2, the standard camera app makes the shutter sound as well. That has been modded out by several developers over there, so I guess it is possible.

Could anyone please follow ganja's lead as well and report back in here? Either it's wishful thinking or it does indeed help quite a bit. I suspect I'm just going crazy, since I did get a few errors in the script's execution -- I have been unable to correct all of them, but maybe some people more knowledgeable than me can see if this actually works (and what the fixes, if at all necessary would be).
The installation tutorial referenced in the thread ganja linked to in his other post is a nice guide to have. Again, seeking in video and such seems to be a lot snappier (almost instantly). Opening QuickPic (a gallery app) in a folder with HD wallpapers is really fast (I had never opened that particular folder before, so it had to render all thumbnails).
I'm not sure if I'm just losing my mind and seeing ghosts. I'll hold off on that judgment for now.
Thanks, ganja!

Now here's the catch why would Asus uses a such old kernel revision while there are latest and current and stable versions available.
Since 2.6 has been a deprecated branch and it is no longer being developed why has Asus create a hassle for its own brand name, why would Asus put a old kernel which the base code was release in Dec/2003. And to quote from wiki...
17 December 2003 - Linux 2.6.0 was released (5,929,913 lines of code).

Why would Asus created a Tablet which features current H/W designs and still uses the old 2.6 deprecated / unsupported kernel???!
This is what puzzles me.
If you do a bit of research you will find this email from Linus himself stating that the old branch is ___in THE PAST___.
Quote again...
As of 2012, the Linux 3.2 release had 14,998,651 lines of code

This email was back in 2011 ...
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/21/455
So what has Asus being doing was designing the HW along with the Linux kernel through out the past several years and came up with this solution ?? Would rather amazes its customers.
Anyways what I'm trying to get the message across is that Asus should have being kept up with technology and bit of quality control and the design.
Edit:
Also this kernel would be insecure and should be exploitable...
Nevertheless a device based on 2.6 would be suspect-able to security risks.

Some benchmark points missing

Hi everybody!
I am in a situation described somewhat by the title. My tf700 is so freakin' tweaked that the last thing I can do is grab a class 10 microSD card and do the I/O fix (not done yet). I am on CROMI 3.3 (rooted, unlocked, but this is obvious ), OC kernel by _that with the ROW addon, which came just after Clemsyns kernel, so the performance mode is even more kick-ass, as it stayed after kernel flash. Fsync disabled, lag fix applied. Yeah, pretty much everything except I/O fix. The problem is my top bemchmark result is about 6700, while I expect ~7150 (well, some users with same specs as mine get ~7150). Done right after a coldboot, with all the useless apps killed, forced GPU. I don't really care abot the result, but it seems like there is some performance potential missing, yet to be used... Would be really nice if someone would be able to point out the reason of this.

Seems like you're not hitting 1800 OC, can you download "cpu spy" and see if you actually hit 1800 in performance mode? and make sure you set your governor to "interactive".

Yeah, haha, I can't post pictures in this forum, cause XDA Premium app says so. Neither can I post URLs as I am still below 10 posts. Anyway, I'm using interactive governor. According to cpu spy my tf700 uses every frequency with no problem.
My latest benchmark results (I updated bootloader today):
Overall - 6909
CPU - 16475
Mem - 4273
I/O - 10648
2D - 833
3D - 2318
CPU result seems quite high, ain't it? I think that 2D is the problem, though I haven't compared it yet...

6400+ is great performance. Quadrant is not a very good consistent bench marker. You can run it 10 times and get scores wildly varying by 500 points. I couldn't get over 7000 for 2 days. Thought something was up and then suddenly with no changes 7200.
Don't worry about it. Does the ROM feel quick?

I get low scores with Quadrant, yet I don't believe them because 3.3 CROMi is very smooth and shows no indications of stutter.

data2sd performance on cromi 5.0 and hunds vs that

First post here. I've been a lurker for quite a few months and I've gotta say thanks to sdbags and that and all the other developmers for their work. Also berndlb for answering so many troubleshooting questions in past threads
That being said, I've got several questions. Currently im running cromi 5.0 with that's kernel but I've been meaning to get data2sd and hunds kernel, now that his stable 3.4 came out. (i assumed its stable because it doesn't say beta anymore)
In a july post I saw that berndlb said that data2sd won't enhance performance as much as it used to because cromi x is so good now so should I still go the data2sd route?
Also I was considering going hunds oc now because its not in beta anymore. Will I see a significant enhancement compared to that's v5 oc?
tl;dr : will cromi 5.0.4 with hunds oc and data2sd be significantly faster than cromi 5.0 with that v5 oc without data2sd?
Thanks everyone for taking the time to read my post!

Jeez - those questions are harder to answer than you think! So much depends on personal use pattern and setup of the tablet!
Lately there have been fewer posts about data2sd as you might have noticed, probably due to fewer people using it.
I have never tried it myself for two reasons: CROMi(-X) has been always plenty fast for my needs and since sbdags released CROMi-X I have never seen a post about someone gushing about how much faster his/her tablet is after implementing it, whereas there were many, many posts about setup problems, problems with subsequent flashes etc. So I considered it always too much hassle for little gain. But that's just me. I'm lazy
If you love to tinker and would like to try it - by all means give it a shot.
According to benchmark scores the fastest combination seems to be Hund's 3.4 and the Extreme Tweaks by LetMeKnow.
If speed is what you crave - that's your combo.
I don't pay much attention to benchmark scores. Do you really see a difference in day-to-day use if your score is 7000 versus 7700? Some do - some don't.
But it's fun to tinker with OC and UV and see what you can tickle out of this hardware.
Striving for perfection with a dose of OCD is what drives the development of this rom - so we should all be very grateful to those spending countless hours on it

Jeez - those questions are harder to answer than you think! So much depends on personal use pattern and setup of the tablet!
Lately there have been fewer posts about data2sd as you might have noticed, probably due to fewer people using it.
I have never tried it myself for two reasons: CROMi(-X) has been always plenty fast for my needs and since sbdags released CROMi-X I have never seen a post about someone gushing about how much faster his/her tablet is after implementing it, whereas there were many, many posts about setup problems, problems with subsequent flashes etc. So I considered it always too much hassle for little gain. But that's just me. I'm lazy
If you love to tinker and would like to try it - by all means give it a shot.
According to benchmark scores the fastest combination seems to be Hund's 3.4 and the Extreme Tweaks by LetMeKnow.

Appreciate the quick reply bern! I also saw in one of your previous posts that you prefer smoothness over speed. (Yes i know Im quite the stalker but your posts have fixed all my technical issues with rooting/unlocking) Will hunds 3.4 with extreme tweaks give me speed without sacrificing smoothess?

It may... Didn't for me (I'm back on _thatV5, but will test LMK's next ET) - but your experience may be different
There's no final answer to this. You just have to give it a try
