Overclock SOC 625?? - Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Can anyone please Overclock soc to 2.2 GHz.

I want It too

That is totally unneeded...as 2Ghz is already enough for nearly everything. If you want more power, you should probably stick to a more powerful phone ;S.
Overclocking isn't good for our battery after all.. Gotta look for those temps. Also, things like overclocking shoulds be requested in a custom kernel forum, but please be formal and nice.

How overclock TG01?

Hey! How overclock tg01? What program? LeoCpuSpeed didn't work
This program alredy dosen't exist.
Maybe later whose write.
Wouldn't wanna fry my phone, if you read carefully you'll see Leo users that tried it say their phones overheated seriously even with a small increase of about 1100mhz and the gain wasn't noticeable. So why bother?
real men dont care about frying a phone

totally agree with you, why overclock? why make the battery worse when it is already terrible? also 1ghz is fast enough for me and loads of other people.
overclock?? this powerplant?? r u crazy? it has a 1GHZ processor for God's sake !
but someone might want to downclock to improve battery life when they don't need too much processing power.
Your awesome!

I was thinking the same thing to myself yesterday. How can one learn anything if one is not willing take a risk?!?!
Do you remember your first ROM install? HEHHEHE... Ahh... my good old Softbank X01HT, Hermes 200, TYTN.

Overclocking not a great idea
Why overclock? 1GHZ (faster than most) runs everything just great. Good idea if you want keep charging your phone every hour. I would only recommend if you are going to stick a mugen 3900mAh battery under the hood.
We must overclock the kernel in android HD2 is very fast on 1200mhz in android overclocked kernel

Which is why the HD2 has terrible battery life running Android
It has a 1230mAh battery. Our TG's has only 1000mAh. And less RAM to work with.

Is 1.5Ghz too high?

I have my Sensation set to 1.5Ghz and it works perfectly. The only thing is that it's getting a little hot (which is expected btw). It's currently fixed at 42C. 1.5Ghz is great but is it really that necessary? Should I just OC it to 1.3Ghz? I'm trying to find a nice temp base.

To answer your question, each device will have a differing operational ceiling depending on the quality of the SoC, soldering, silk-screening etc. They aren't all created equal. If 1.5GHz works fine for you, stick with it I see OC kernels pushing to 1.8GHz now.
Naturally the higher you go the hotter your SoC will run, so I'd play around and find the point where you gain some performance, but negligible heat over stock. Heat will kill not only your SoC, but your battery as well.
I'm only going from personal experience, but I've never found an OC to be worth it in terms of an actual, real-life performance increase, on any device. It looks good in benchmarks, but I'd rather have a phone that was smooth as butter in day-to-day operation than a jerky piece of sh*t that gets 10,000 in Quadrant YMMV of course!
The heat stress and battery drainage costs, plus stability issues, outweigh the positives for me.
How can I reset my CPU back to stock then?

Most of the Sensation ROMs feature what's called an OC Daemon.
This is pretty much an automatic overclocker of sorts. It can change your clock ceiling/floor automatically depending on load. Read a bit more about it here.
If you have something like SetCPU installed, the Daemon is redundant, giving you manual control over your clocks. The easiest way to return to 'stock' frequencies would be to simply delete SetCPU and allow the Daemon to do it's thing
Well I uninstalled it and I have LeeDroid. How do I find this "daemon"? Where would it be located? What do I do I'm a noob

I couldn't see whether the daemon in included on LeeDroid, or whether LeeDroid has actually just modified the frequency tables (list of supported frequencies) to allow for the ~1730MHz ceiling. If the daemon is there, it'll already be working for you - you don't see it
I don't believe it's something you can just download and tack on. I think you'd have to be running a supported ROM. You may need to dig a little deeper into the LeeDroid thread and do some reading, or perhaps retitle this thread to ask 'Does LeeDroid include the OC Daemon' or something similar.
Sorry I can't be more help, I'm a devout Android Revolution HD supporter myself, although I am running the UNITY kernel.
Good luck mate!
personally I can't see the need to over clock, given that all software is probably written for devices currently in use, I do not know of any dual core 1.5 or higher phones, so why oc ?
I agree , I would rather have a fast stable phone, than some jerky fc piece of ****e that gets 10000 jiggawatts in a benchmark, and that can cook my crumpets..................... on second thoughts, I do like my crumpets.

[Q] Dangers of overclocking the Sensation's GPU (Adreno 220)

Hey there,
I've read some threads about the dangers of overclocking an Android-device in general. I'm aware of these dangers.
But in my feeling overclocking the sensation is a little different.
Most custom roms set CPU-speed to 1500MHz each core, which is the native clock of the chipset (or am I'm wrong?). No problem so far.
But with tweaking the CPU often the GPU is overclocked, too.
Now the point: What are the dangers of overclocking the GPU?
Does it make sense to overclock just the CPU without the GPU? Is it possible?
What are your experiences with overclocking (e.g. with IsertCoin or RevolutionHD) the GPU?
What you have to remeber with regard to overclocking is that your not alone in doing it when you use one of the custom roms.
Many thousands of ppl are running overclocked handsets and the first things you see happening from overclocking to far is your handset not booting up or locking up well before you would do any physical damage to the handset i would say.
I have run my sensation at 1800 cpu speed and it started ok but locked up when doing one of the benchmark tools , i rebooted and reduced the speed a little but all running fine with no concerns with regard to overheating
So there is a hardware protection to prevent serious damage?
I dont know enough about the handset to say if there is or not i suspect there will be something , but have you ever tried to overclock a graphics card on a pc you get so far and it wont display or something like that so you reduce it.
Heat with any electronic component is i problem and overclocking something increases that heat, but when you get to a certain point your phone will lock freeze reboot etc usually before any damage is done.
If you have any concern about destroying your phone by overclocking the simple answere is that you dont overclock it .

Yes you're right of course, but i just want to get a feeling for this topic... i just try to decide if it's a good idea to use RevolutionHD, which is overclocked from the beginning.
And to get a feeling, I just asked about the risks, because the benefits are clear for me
To answer your question, yes, the sensation comes with thermal protection that helps against overheating. If the device becomes to hot, it(in most cases) shuts itself down until it cools. The CPU in the sensation is underclocked when it's shipped at 1.2Ghz(1188), but the true spec of the CPU is actually 1.5Ghz(1536). HTC underclocks the CPU to 1.2 to save on battery consumption. I personally have ran my phone just fine at the 1.5Ghz setting, I've even pushed it up to 1.6Ghz(1620) and it ran fine with the exception it did get just a little hot, but nothing to worry me. That being said I've since underclocked my CPU to 1296 and all is well. And afterall, how fast do you really need your phone to be before you take it too far and fry the cpu?? The sensation is fast right out of the box and even faster when using a NO sense rom, such as cm7(my personal fav)
Side Note : The new sensation XE ships with the cpu at it's original clock speed of 1.5Ghz.. both sensations have the 'exact' same cpu.
In regards to your GPU question, I have mine set @ 300mhz and not 320. The sensations GPU comes clocked at 266.I've ran it @ 320 and it ran just fine.. for me it's more of a personal preference. My graphics look just fine clocked @ 300mhz.. Below is a quote about the chipset and the new one coming out.
"With Adreno 225 Qualcomm improves performance along two vectors, the first being clock speed. While Adreno 220 (used in the MSM8660) ran at 266MHz, Adreno 225 runs at 400MHz thanks to 28nm. Secondly, Qualcomm tells us Adreno 225 is accompanied by "significant driver improvements". Keeping in mind the sheer amount of compute potential of the Adreno 22x family, it only makes sense that driver improvements could unlock a lot of performance. Qualcomm expects the 225 to be 50% faster than the outgoing 220."
if this helped, give the thank you button a punch
p.s. I've ran both insertcoin & revolution HD and both ran fine.. I just really prefer no sense roms

some sources say adreno 220 can be overclocked to 400mhz .... bdw how can i overclock ...is der a app like setcpu for it ?????

a few time ago some other user reported the same thing about adreno 220
but i think it is too high that value and it is impossible for gpu to handle such a value
in order to overclock the gpu you have to flash another kernel

[Q] Overclock past 1.5Ghz

Can you overclock the G2X past 1.5GHZ?
I don't see no point in doing other than fun, it depends on ur phone.
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!
I thought I heard of a kernel that went to 1.6... but I'm not too sure.
Morfic made a 1.6 (1.7?) GHz kernel. You can find it in the Der Kernel thread.
Seems like an unnesessary risk, don't fry your phone man...
As I understand it, the voltage requirements increase in direct relation to speed. The Tegra 2 chip itself has limits on the voltage it can handle even in the best circumstances based on the size of the die.... anything above 1.55ghz or so requires enough voltage that it could possibly cause physical damage to your chip before you know it.
Thus nobody builds kernels faster than that, because if they did, there would be a thread full of "you killed ma phone" posts.
EDIT: I stand a little corrected. Morfic *DID* just build a 1.7ghz kernel by user request. Appropriately titled "The Destroyer"... because that's what it's liable to do to your phone
Are you wanting to burn up your phone? If so then just mail it to me and I'll set it on fire for ya.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Sure if you want to turn your phone into a hands warmer that will work for a short period of time before burning itself up go for it. No reason to do it. The thermal toll alone will most likely do significant damage to the internals of your phone. If you want 1.5Ghz just buy yourself a new faster phone.

[Q] do overclocking kernels harmful to the phone??

saw many overclocked doom kernels medium level and extreme level overclocking.
is it harmful to the phone? does it overheates the board and damages??
for a 1ghz X10 phone overclocking to 1.2ghz, is there much increase in performance and removes lags..???
Most kernel developers won't allow the kernel to be set to run at a speed harmul to your phone. So no, overclocking is not considered harmful. Overclocking can greatly reduce lag, but you will be sacrificing battery life.
yeah dont worry mates.
be happy to OC your phone. kernel developer know what they are doing.
but dont go OC your phone to hisghest OC 1st level becouse it will crash your phone. try increase it slowly.:laugh:
