Overclocking Thunderbolt

I have read that the HTC Inspire has the same CPU as the Thunderbolt, if this is correct will the 1.8ghz overclock also work for the Thunderbolt? Anyone with some light on this situation?

We'll have to wait until we get custom kernels to do this. Each phone has a different kernel IIRC so you can't slap the Inspire OC on the Thunderbolt and rock on.
I'm sure we'll hit 1.8 if not 2.0. Just be patient.
I'm happy with 1G as is... but I could always use more speed.

According to Wikipedia:
Inspire uses the MSM8255 chip..
Thunderbolt uses the MSM8655.
They are both rated for 1ghz, but it could be that the MSM8655 is superior in other ways and might have a higher/safer overhead.. We might be able to get a 100% overclock or really dark close to it.

The difference in the chips is the radio bands. 82XX is GSM and 86XX is CDMA.

with a battery life of 45 mins.!

the guy who did that 1.8Ghz kernel claims he gets 20 hours or so on a charge.

I think it would easily get 20 hours on a full charge. Interactive only uses what it needs.
I'm gonna miss ChevyNo1s kernels on the OG Droid, they were amazing

the 8255 is the same cpu in the MT4G which can clock up to 1.8

They just did overclock it to 1.8ghz
The story here
2800 on the quadrant, another article shows a screenshot of 3000 too.
Also, tester says he was getting 12 hours (8AM to 8PM) with moderate use. 45 minutes, I think not...
Enjoy!

lol I was being sarcastic. I am well aware of the fact that you can get good battery life out of an overclocked phone. I came from the evo 4G where I had "god" mode enabled and got great battery life.
P.S. God mode on the evo ment overclocking to 1.2Ghz. Most phones couldn't go that high, so you had to enable "god" mode to try.

Money. I'll take it.
Now gimme a link!!!!
Good to know the phone doesn't disappoint.

I'm an inspire owner on an overclocked kernel. On 1800 my battery with normal use (tons of Facebook and xda app, email,~50 texts, and 10-15 2-5 min phone calls) gets ~20-24 hrs on a full charge. This was my best benchmark.

I tried that as well. My Quadrant score was similar but I found browser scrolling and gameplay in Angry Birds to be noticeably choppy. Also, in Quadrant, the orbiting planet test pegs at 60fps stock where with this kernel it was jumping around all over at lower fps. Ended up flashing a different stock clocked kernel and everything was good again.

Adrynalyne said somewhere that his 1.6GHz was thermal throttling ... this might also be what is happening in the situation you're describing.

we need to find the link to the kernel that has the TB OC'd to 1.8... >.>

I don't think the 1.8 is quite ready yet, but it seems a little excessive to me.. but thats just my humble opinion

I have a kernel that is 1.8ghz capable, but it will reset after a while. So far it seems that 1.4ghz is stable. If I go any higher, eventually it resets. I have the Liquid sense rom installed. Haven't tried any others to see if the kernels are more stable at higher clocks.
Edit: with this ROM at 1.8hgz I get a 2571 on quadrant. I think that's particularly good. Too bad it resets once in a while. Any one recommend a good kernel for stable overclock?

[Q] What is decent Quadrant benchmark score?

I think I had around 1500-1600 on stock 2.3.3. I rooted and installed Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS kernel and it's back up to 2200. I did not overclock.
I did some search on Google and I've seen some going up to 4500 with custom ROM, kernel, and overclock.
I prefer keeping stock ROM, so is overclock pretty much only way to increase benchmark score? How much effect would it have, say if I purchased setCPU app and raised to 1.4 GHz?
Thanks!

I get around 2.700 - 2.800 with netarchy bfs, OCed to 1,4 GHz on stock 2.3.3

So did you purchase setCPU (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mhuang.overclocking&feature=search_result) and switched to 1400 MHz and it brought your benchmark up to 2800?
How is the battery life with 1.4 GHz? Battery life and stability is what's worrying me the most about overclocking..
Thanks!

Yes I did. But I am not keeping it at 1400 MHz(it was for testing only). Performance is amazing when I have i set to 1200 max 100 min "ondemand" Just did a quadrant, and I got 2100.

Woah! I just killed all tasks running(not setCPU) and I got 3003. I was curious again, and tried when set to 1400. Got 3300.

So I guess it would be very possible to get mine over 3000 with simply overclocking since it's around 2200 without overclocking (only stock 2.3.3 ROM and Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS kernel).
Kind of bit wary about overclocking though because I think this is fast enough.

That's amazing. I plan to keep stock ROM so I think only way I could raise score is by overclocking..
How is the battery life after OC?

When you over clock it drains faster depending on the profiles you have set for screenoff. I have a kernel with the smartass profile built in. I'm running 1.8ghz with no problems but my battery last five hours. And I get 3421 in quadrant

yea, the only way youll raise the score significantly is by overclocking. and if you want to stay on the stock rom, youll have to find an overclocked kernel to flash and use setcpu(or similar) to set the oc.
about battery life, it really depends how you use your phone, even with overclocking. you can have absolutely great battery days, and you could have terrible battery days. i can overclock my phone up to 1.6ghz stably, but usually use a 1.4ghz kernel to oc. obviously, the faster you set it, the more battery itll use. but the difference isnt significant, unless youre oc'ed at 1.6ghz. btw, thats my 4500 in quadrant

Netarchy kernel is overclocked kernel right? I read that it can be OCed to 1.4 GHz. So in that case, I would just need to purchase setCPU app right?

yes. they boot safely at 1ghz. then you set your desired speed. not all phones can handle an oc though. some can only handle 1.2ghz. and some not even that. some have no problems at 1.5 or 1.6ghz. your phone will let you know if its to much.

How do I find out if the phone is durable and stable after OC? Temperature of the phone, or O/S freezing??
My setting now is:
Performance
Max: 1400 MHz
Min: 1000 MHz
SELECT Set on boot
Did I set the settings right?
I got 2700-3000 with the setting above.
But it seems like there is no problem. I did stress test for a bit (stopped because it took long) but there was no error.
And I got little bit over 3200 with stock 2.3.3 ROM, Netarchy 1.3.0 CFS, and OC to 1.4 GHz when I set both Max and Min values to 1400 MHz
I was looking at screen shots from market but how do I set it to go down when temperature is hot?

yea, looks like your doing it right. i always throw out the first 3 quadrants, the 4th or 5th is usually pretty good
btw, dont checkmark the set on boot option. otherwise it wont boot up at a safe speed and could throw you into bootloops.

Is that why my SNS did not boot once? After Google logo displayed, it did not boot (although LED lights were on). I had to take out battery and put it back again.
I think that happened to me twice ever since I rooted. This did not happen prior to rooting.
So I would have to manually change setting on setCPU each time I reboot?
Thanks!

I guess the benchmark score varies after couple tries. I got it up to 3300 after updating to 1.3.0.1 Netarchy kernel.

you were booting if you had your keys lit up. thats just a dark boot without boot animation. that happens sometimes, since android 2.3.3 came out. just be patient, itll boot. theres no harm in it.oh, yea, youll have to change settings manually.

[Q] (req) gpu oc N5

Can any dev out there add GPU oc too their kernel ? I have a nexus 7 (2013) with GPU running at 600mhz
I was wondering if it'd be possible at all too do the same on the nexus 5. Considering its been done on the xperia z1 which uses the same GPU.
Xperia kernel thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660679
Would it be possible or difficult? I know that kernel is only compatible with CM' and I wouldn't mind if that was a requirement for it too work on the N5 but id prefer it was implemented on a kernel that would work with slimkat -specifically- slimkat 4.4.2 v3.2 stable
Any response or help on this subject would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the fast response ' I'll check it out hope it suits my needs

its possible, but its pointless. you get no gain from it, except faster battery loss. and thats not really any gain. plus we are limited to 60 fps, no matter what. you can disable the fps limit, but you will get screen tearing from it.
to unlock the fps limit..
debug.egl.swapinterval=0
copy/paste this line into /system/build.prop/then reboot for it to take affect.

as i said, you will not see any gain from it. ive already done some testing with it. if there was any gain from kit, it would of been done with trinity kernel in december. but, there wasnt any gain, so it was left behind.
---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------
the gpu on the nexus 5 actually scales, between 200mhz and 450mhz. so its not always using 450mhz, only when needed. you see more gain from setting the min and max gpu speed to 450mhz than you see from overclocking the gpu.

Thanks for the info , I appreciate it ! I was disappointed trinity didn't have it , I was very fond of that kernel and GPU oc on my galaxy nexus

I'll play around with that kernel for a while and exp with the min and max frequencies too find what works best for me, and I'll probably go back to setting CPU freq @ 2.5ghz max 1.5ghz min , I know I have a problem and a real need for speed
Another question, would I have too manually edit the GPU speed on uberkernel using root explorer? I didn't see Amy config options GPU related on trickster mod, maybe I should use kernel tuner instead ?

I believe stock clock is 533 on uber kernel.

Hi,
There are the GPU settings in Trickster Mod (frequency and governor). You need to update the app with the last beta version since they added support for the Adreno 330. It's under the specific tab.
And yes 533 Mhz is the default GPU clock in this kernel, but you can underclock to the stock GPU freq (450 Mhz) with Trickster Mod.

I am not the DEV, developer is @halaszk88
But he is working to merge BOC3 source at the moment.

Oohh..how long I waited to see a custom kernel thread..... Now the fun begins... Million thanks for the effort.. Looking for updates...
Thanks again....

please share your synapse setting

Ok so I am on asv 7 oc big cores to 2 GHz 1293.75 v and small ones to 1700 mhz on 1350 v and the the gpu on a safe oc at 700 mhz on 1062.5 v on antutu i get 35k with perfomance governor with some settings on development settings turned on on ultimate kernel my max antutu score was 43 k so anyone want to collaborate here? Also anyone posting their results please post also ypur asv rating of your board it is visible on synapse... And i gotta say that it doesn't feel butter smooth yet i mean the general ui animations. I also didn't use a fridge wasn't on powersaving mode and didn't lower the resolution to test it further yet i can get higher scores on 1080p or even 720 but since the score is so low from the start i don't expect any miracles can the op describe to us how did he get that amazing score?

Well UI is smooth here. But Antutu is low like yours. 35000 is a canceled one i think. GPU throttle frequencies are absolutely to high. My phone is not passing last gpu test with these settings. Strange is that gpu frequency stats never show any frequency above 420 MHz. The mainly used frequency is 266. That's the simole explanation for these low scores Looks like gpu oc and gpu scaling in general is not working correct atm. Anyway a nice attenpt and already good for daily use.
OP how do you got these scores?

This would be stock score

Glad to see you here!!
After the (in)glory of note3.. now we try with the 4..

My ASV is 8 using 981mV on 700MHz and 667MHz these two freq. need same voltage. And all gpu voltages must set precisely. If not test can be completed but with lower FPS so lower Score. DVFS helping to correct wrong Voltage of Freq. but this ErrorCorrectionTime seen as lower FPS.
And LL is said to has a PowerSaving bug. If "Settings/Power Saving/Power Saving Mode/Restrict Performance/CPU Performance" option ON whether PowerSavingMode settings is ON or OFF GPU does not go over 350MHz.
So go Settings/Power Saving/Power Saving Mode/Restrict Performance and set CPU Performance untick. May help
Enable 4x MSSA will give more detail but lower score so try stock values first, then find your setting step by step
For SMOOTHER UI please DISABLE "PowerEfficientWorkqueues" on Synapse/CORTEX_BRAIN menu

LG G Flex 2 Runs Better with Battery Saver On....

I was curious about this phone's overheating/lag problems, so I thought I'd try turning on Battery Saver. It seems to be much smoother now. Still not quite perfect, but it's a step forward; at least for me. Now if only I could do something about those dreadful orange bars...
Can anyone else corroborate with my results? I've also read online about an update - v10h - that "transforms" the phone into a lagless beast. Anyone received that update yet? Here's a link to the source: http://www.digitaltrends.com/cell-phone-reviews/lg-g-flex2-review/

I have the V10c-226-01 update, and the phone is ok.

Will test the battery saver but it seems weird that it's impact performance in a positive way. It should limit it not the other way around.

That's strange how'd he get that update? A lot of people have received 10e just recently which is 2 updates away from that one. I'm still on 10c.

hey, guys, don't have the phone at the moment, but had anyone tried undervolting and underclocking?
The main reason i think, it should help, is because android ran perfectly smooth on my old HTC One X, with S4 Pro, quad-core @ 1500Mhz.
Afaik, we need a custom kernel to modify voltage, but underclocking may be the option for those, who suffers from overheating.

The phone is undercloked by default to 1500Mhz.

4 of my cores are running 1555.

I think the reason it runs better with Battery Saver is because it prevents it from overheating in the first place. Even with Battery Saver limiting the CPU to power sipping levels, it is still a fairly powerful CPU, certainly enough to run the OS. I'll run an Antutu Benchmark with it on vs off.

Okay, I ran the benchmarks. The results are very surprising! The score with Battery Saver on is 10000 points higher than with it off. Both results are after a clean boot and both were done with the device cool. Although, a benchmark I did 2 days ago with no Battery Saver had a score of 43000. That may have been because I had fewer apps installed.

I did the same tests. 1st one without battery saver on, 2nd with it on. I got similar results, but not as severe. Both were on a fresh boot. However the 2nd test was shortly after the first, so it might have been a little warm.
Test one :
Test two:
I guess we need to figure out what the battery saver is doing and make a permanent tweak.

it's limiting the top frequency of the processor, and maybe sets the governor to conservative, i guess.
You can turn it on, and check cpu frequency in sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
(path may vary, it's from my Moto X, but i think, they're common)
Then turn it off, to see, if it changes.

I found something else interesting. I looked into the CPU info in Antutu, and, with Battery Saver off, the CPU max frequency was at 1.5ghz, but with BS on, it was 1.9ghz

That's interesting. I'm wondering if the benchmarks were updated to work with our processor.

BS seems to have no effect on my phone.
Why are your cold scores so low?

I've been running my G flex 2 with two A57 cores disabled. In typically averaging about 6 hours of screen on time. Just general use; YouTube, Facebook, looking up LG G4 reviews, texting, other social networking apps. Just wanted to say disabling cores has really worked out for me so far... I also accidentally deleted LGs stock UI, so I've been using nova

How did you disable the cores? Is there custom kernel for this phone?
