So do our snapdragons only go up to 1.6ghz or are the kernel apps reporting wrong? I've tried a couple and they only show 1.6ghz as max speed. The 820 can go up to 2.2ghz.
Kerenel Apps
Hi, I have been using CPUZ and having no issues with it reporting the correct CPU speed as far as kernel apps I am not sure what app your using but it might be worth it to check it with CPUZ its a free download from the play store.
using Kernel Aduitor it reports max at 1.6Ghz

using same app i get 1.6ghz as max also. could it be that lg underclocked this version of the 820?

possibly, although I'm not too sure why they would... heating issues? doubt it but idk enough to edit in new frequencies..
The 820 has 2 cores with max speed of 2.2 and 2 maxed at 1.6

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.

no ! cause when you star OC its more than then samsung has planned for your CPU so no!
, but when youf Phone is stable with 1,2ghz than you could use it without any harm!

Some phones handle handle overclocking better than others, even within a particular line. I was running mine at 1.4 ghz without any issues.
You can keep increasing it by one notch until it reaches to a point of instability. It'll freeze and reboot
I'm running stock myself, but I've heard a few people running stable @ 1.4, with overvolt.

Yeah. You just have to make the modifications to the kernel and recompile the it yourself. However, when I did it, it actually ran better at around 400 or 450.

Is it possible to overclock the Adreno 225 GPU, I play mostly N64oid and FPSE on my phone. Its for FPSE mostly because of the Open GL plugin might see some increase by overclocking the GPU. Also dose any one know what its running at currently, i'm not really sure if overclocking the CPU also overclocks the GPU if they are synchronized or something.
Any other emulator users out there that love using their phone for game play?

Yea.....I was just wondering if we had a kernel that had it OCed yet....that is what I meant by possible...with some chips the CPU and GPU need to be scaled the same to work correctly. So if the stock CPU speed is set so is the STOCK GPU speed......I think...do we even have a kernel OCing the CPU for the VGSIII?
Not sure if your trolling or what but Desktop GPU and Phone GPU are two different beasts. Not many people really even care to check what GPU is on a phone and how is stacks up against other phone GPUs. For example the Mali 400 in the Galaxy S II in the US makes the Galaxy S III GPU look like an old Voodoo card next to a GTX 480.....just saying we got ripped on the GPU hardware upgrade for the US iteration of the Galaxy S series. Its actually a downgrade and it blows now that I don't have sprint(because their network is trash).
Currently Verizon does not have a GPU in a phone with 4G that can match the Mali 400. I don't want to wait until the Galaxy Note 2 comes to Verizon...seeing as it has the same hardware as the international version of the Galaxy S III just with a bigger screen. However if a OCed GPU does not get me the performance I am looking for then I will be jumping to the GN2 as soon as it comes out.
The OP of the kernel thread you decide to look at should say whether the GPU is OC'd or not. For example, both TW kernels Trinity and Leankernel have the GPU OC'd to 480 mhz. If you're asking can we users manually OC the GPU, then I can't help you with that.

Hi guys!
I have now confirmed through the cpuz app and antutu , that the power saving mode only uses a7 cores (not more than 1200mhz) and leaves the a15 unused no matter what the CPU requirement is.
This experiment was done in the latest MEA firmware for i9500.
I have also figured out that there is some CPU throttling going on with the latest firmware when the temp reaches 50, the a15 cores were not used in the antutu benchmark. This is also why I got an extremely low score of 22000 and then got 17000 in the second test as the CPU was heated. As soon as the CPU cooled down to 40, the cpuz app again showed all cores reaching 1600mhz when running the test in background.
These are my own findings and I apologize if this is known to everyone because I certainly didn't know that.

Try running the antutu app test in background and start the cpuz app. Look for change in the CPU clock. Are you sure it doesn't show anything more than 1200mhz?

No.
A7 is used dominantly because many conventional software tasks do not need the muscle of the A15.
There are other issues as well... just give the ROMs time to improve.

there are no such throttles at 50 C, but the boost mode is disabled by default it seems i can see antutu topping at 1.4 ghz not more than that..
I got 26764 in antutu using power saving mode. The highest freq used when running antutu is 1400 (check using cpu spy).
After checking whatsapp and xda app, I check freq 1600 is also used. So it is not limited to A7 in power saving mode.
Note: I use perseus 2.1 and MEA.

Can you please tell us more about the boost mode?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda premium
it does show more that 1200mhz for a second or two on the first test . The cpu gets instantly throttled though (as the temp rises).
Then subsequent tests show 1200 or less.
To answer my own question, yes this does meant essentially only the A7 cores get used. Because any sort of load on the A15 causes a temp rise, which causes an auto throttle down to the A7.
Even if you fix the minimum cpu speed to be > 1200, the rom disregards youw minimum and drops lower. E. g. I fixed the minimum to 1300, ran antutu (The results were significantly better than the stock cpu settings) however near the end of the test the cpu was auto clocked down to 1000 and stayed there on any subsequent antutu tests.

samsung uses boost mode to increase throttle temp limit from 90 c to 100c in order to stay longer at higher clocks for better bench scores, when the boost mode is disabled the clock speeds will start reducing by 200mhz steps when the temp touches 90c.
Bala Gamer you know any program can log the temp while playing or bench?
