[Q][A700] CPU frequency max 1,3GHz with Vorbeth's oc kernel? - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

Hello,
Recently i flashed iconiaN 2.6 on my A700 and I'm really happy of it, works great
I get Vorbeth's oc kernel for iconiaN but I got a little problem with that one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004441)
The GPU overclock worked for me, I installed tegra overclock which has a thermal guard after my A700 was getting pretty hot just to be sure
Now I noticed that the cpu clock speed in tegra overclock and setCPU doesn't get higher then 1,2 or 1,3 in high performance. Normally it should get around 1,5 with Vorbeth's kernel or not? (Why is 1,5 not an option in setCPU?) Even overclock to 1,4 max and 1,4 min doesn't change anythinh, it's still 1,3GHz.
Did I baddly install the kernel or is it just setCPU that doesn't show the right clockspeed?
Thanks

Why It is possible to overclock just at 1.3?

Hi guys.
I wanted to ask you something, because in our sl i9003 is the maximum possible overclock 1300 mhz?
The Artex-A8 processor is not it?
It should be a very powerful processor, but even though I've always overclocchi various lag to 1.3, with any rom.
And my device has no flaws ..
So, back to the main question .. because the maximum overclock is only 1.3?
Now I'm using the rom with the look dell's3 and formatted EXT4 but is slow and full of lag .. Help!
Thanks.
I'm wrong or sI9000 can be overclocked more with the same cpu?

No , he would be know why for our phone the max overclock is 1.38 ghz.. I would it know to..

Our Max is 1.45(I think can't rmb). Each chip has different oc capabilities, my g3 could oc from 667mhz to 1.4ghz with no problems .

Well, you can easly push your phone at 1500MHz (BCK kernel feature: Evolved sysfs interface for variable overclock or underclock), but the phone is not usable. I tried once to slowly change the frequency to see my limit and @1400MHz the phone became unusable.
Other than being unstable because, quoting XDA_Bam, "Anything more than 10% higher than the highest stock frequency is likely to be unstable", I think the voltage set for the 5th OPP is too low for anything higher than 1300MHz (maybe I'm wrong).
Proof? here.
Actually, this is "fake". To take this screenshot I had first disabled the 5th OPP, then I changed its frequency so that CPU Spy showed 1500MHz even though I wasn't really using it. The time spent at that frequency was actually the time the CPU spent at 1200MHz before I had disabled the 5th OPP
I did that to show you that it's actually possible to (easly) change the max frequency to anything higher 1380MHz.
EDIT:
And BTW devs are continuosly improving this device, we were first limited to 1100MHz, now some phones are stable at 1300MHz. Remember that our cousing (I9000) is older and has a huge community.
EDIT 2:
"I'm wrong or sI9000 can be overclocked more with the same cpu?" => "I'm wrong or sI9000 can be overclocked more with a totally different cpu?"

You are wrong: the CPUs are different
i9003 has TI OMAP 3630 1GHz and i9000 has Samsung S5PC110 1GHz (code-named "Hummingbird")
Cortex A8 is just instructions and specifications for CPU. It's like DX10 for GPU. You can say Nvidia XXX card supports DX10 and AMD YYY supports it, why clocks for these cards and overclock potential are different?
I think the cpu of the i9000 is wors then the from i9003 so why is the i9000 overclocked to 50% and in our is it only 35%?
Cuold we not work on an overclock like 1.45 ghz for our phone ? Would it be unstable or is it because we need developers that can make it stable?

But can anybody tell me that whats the use of such higher OC (1.45ghz) when u can do same stuffs smoothly on 1.2 ghz easily??? Also OC looks very attractive feature but in my opinioin its a deadly battery killer feature. OC upto 1.35 ghz is more than sufficient (I am satisfied with 1ghz max with superb performance & good battery backup).
Instead of wasting time on overclocking developers should work on overclocking gpu, kernel 3.0 or video codec, video recording in cm7, cm9, miui, aosp roms. Because for now thats a big problem for our phone.

I am with you, we reached the limits of "smoothness" really (On stable roms, we shouldn't blame hardware when using buggy or incompletete roms or even stupid samsung roms.)
It would be better if devs focus on the GPU.

Remember when OCing just happened on our device? we were limited to 1080 Ghz, then to 1100 Ghz, then to 1200 Ghz/1300 Ghz, and now 1380 Ghz, devs will always figure out a way to squeeze more power and keep it stable, it needs time and effort.
The Galaxy S has a different CPU (That has lower OC potential then ours theoretically if i remember correctly) but has a bigger number of developers, it was released in 2010, our device was released in 2011 so it is kinda new.

Yes of cours but some developers can't fix this bugs.. But maybe they are able to overclock the phone (like uc team) and i think it's not a battery killer.. If i have battery problems i buy for 10 € a new battery.. Some games and if i have 2 apps open the phon is luggy.. Maybe with an haiey overclock it will be smoother

Remember guys, even if you OC the CPU, there will always be the weight of our outdated GPU dragging us down. Even if we OC to 1.45Ghz, you will always experience little bits of lag due to our PowerVR530. If I compare my friend's stock I9000 (No Mods, No Root, No OC:1Ghz) to my I9003 (with OC 1.38Ghz). My friend's I9000 will always be smoother due to both an advanced CPU and GPU.

Only their GPU is superior..
If someone could OC the gpu, we can probably reach their performance.

But in the next version 9.1 they stated that they lowered the OC, (Still OCed) and this is the latest working version.
V9.1:
-Fix problems in recovery.
-Reduce overclock gpu to 220Mhz.
-Voltage ajustement.

Overclocking Question

hi all,
i want to root and overclock my TF300T
for the overclocking:
-Can i use setcpu ? What other tool is good for OC ?
- Do i need a Costum ROM for overclocking to 1.5Ghz (MAX!)
-Will the performance be a lot better ? or just better ? or no diffrence ?
-What is the highest possible OC ?
Thank you
If you are on ICS you can over clock to 1.5 no problem. I don't know about Setcpu on ICS, but I do know EzOverclock works.
If you upgraded to Jellybean, I don't know of anyway to overclock as of yet. EzOverclock won't work on Jellybean and reportedly causes boot loops. I tried setcpu on my Jellybean Tf300 and found the CPU to be maxed at 1.3.

It really depends on how you use the tablet, and where your bottleneck is. My feel is that I/O is the biggest bottleneck on the ASUS pads and the effects are felt across the board. I believe ASUS is working on a fix, though. Fingers crossed.
I/O notwithstanding, day-to-day tasks like email and web browsing don't need a 1 Ghz. Even video playback won't be affected by the difference between 1.2 Ghz (the ASUS performance mode) and 1.5 Ghz (typical max OC). Rendering graphics, I'm not sure how much is offloaded to the GPU, so games or graphic heavy applications may be where you'll see the most gains.
EZoverclock don't work on JB it will keeps restarting your tablet when EZoverclock starts.
And other apps work but can only be set to 1.3 so no overclock on JB with this kernel.
I think in graphically intense applications, such as games, would offer the most notable difference even with gpu offloading since not all instructions are graphics related. That being said just know that battery life will take a hit.
Remember...... as of now EzOverclock will not work in Jellybean.....

Hello, i would like to know the maximum overclock frequency and voltage i can "safely" use. I'm doing digital painting with TVPaint and the processor is really struggling at 1.4 ghz... I notice a small improvement at 1.6 ghz but still not enough. What is the safe limit ?
Btw i'm using tegrak overclock.
Thank you.

[Completed] I have two questions about s7 battery/ghz and rom

I installed Kernel Audiutor from Google play and I have the GHz set to performance meaning that they will run at the max GHz the entire time (that's 1.5 Ghz on all 4 cores and 2.5 ghz on two cores or 2.2 ghz when on the cores and 1.5 ghz on 4 cores) will this reduce the battery by a lot? I've noticed increases battery usage recently.
Also is there a way to install custom rom without wiping or does it have to be wiped?
Not sure if I've posted in the right forum sorry.

Hello and welcome to XDA-developers!
On Kernel "Adiutor" you have CPU tab that shows which core is running/idle and how it scales. This process is controlled by the "governor", in your case, you have performance.
If you have stock ROM and want to install a custom ROM, you have to wipe data.

Can anyone overclock GPU

Can anyone over clock Exynos 7870 GPU to 1.5Ghz or +,i'm not developer only some of little bit game lover & web developer ,I use many kernel and Roms that support
1.7 Ghz CPU and 1.1Ghz GPU but when ever I play any game even on high frequency game lagging ,even on 1.4Ghz CPU frequency result is same ,mean over clock GPU help better performance on system and Gaming.
Hope any person understand me. Please do something that help Exynos 7870 users.

Hardware limitations exist mind you... Devs just can't keep pushing OC beyond a certain point. That point for the GPU of the phone exists at around 1000-1146 MHz while for CPU the highest fully stable OC is at around 1690 MHz while some kernels try to push to around 1920 MHz but some devices at this stage crash or are very unstable so no one can push any higher unless you want your hardware to be toast that is by supplying enough voltage to sustain those clocks...
