CPU speed - HTC Excalibur

For some odd reason tcpmp is reporting that my CPU speed is only 180 mhz, i thaght it was suposto be running at 201 mhz. Any one have any idea whay it is like that?
Edit:I just did a hard reset,and now tcpmp is reporting that my CPU is at 177 mhz

It says the same for me, but SKTools tells me 201 and then system settings says 201. I imagine TCPMP just reads it wrong.

No, guys, unless you are all overclocking on your Dash it's a well-known fact that many providers and OEMs are underclocking the OMAP CPU. The Dash processor can easily run between 230 & 240MHz but has been under-clocked to 180. Why? I am not sure, perhaps because of power?
FYI, My TCPMP reports 180 unless I OC using the requisite software.

What do these do exactly??

HLCM->System->GDI->GLYPHCACHE
click values
highlight and chose limit
change value
default is 16384
change this to 32768 or 65536
Also what does omaping do and what is safe level to change it to on tornado? I have kavanna 6.1 and my dash is made in china i believe.

I know that changing those values will speed up the performance of the Dash in some capacity. I don't know exactly what speeds up, but there's a noticeable difference.
OMAPing (or overclocking) speeds up your phone's processor speed. The processor is set to 200mhz by default. Overclocking pushes the phone to perform at speeds higher than the suggested mhz of the processor. There's a BIG difference in the phone's performance, but there's also a RISK that your phone will lock up if set too high. I have mine set to 240mhz--and it runs beautifully. For a couple of days, I had it set to 252mhz--but it began to freeze at random times. Thus, I set it back to 240mhz. Just be careful going above 240mhz. I own a Dash/Excalibur, so I don't know what a safe clock speed will be on your Tornado.
Does increasing glyphcache maintain an application's normal running speed? i.e. does a video run faster, or normal?
Regarding overclocking, it would be nice if there was some level of dynamic switching. There was a tutorial for setting a different clock speed for when the screen's backlight is on or off. That would maximize battery usage and performance transparently. Anyone still running this scheme?
I have performed the Gyphcache tweak, but not sure how to re-set the processor speed. My system info says 201 Mhz, but tcpmp says it's running at 180. How can I raise it? I have T-mob 6.0 Standard (...I know...)
Thanks!

Not quite sure how to overclock the 6.0 ROM. I'm running Kavana's 080408 6.1 ROM, and it has a pre-installed OMAPClock program which allows you to overclock. Just look for the standalone OMAPClock program on Google or some other search engine.
Download Rickys Extras
Go to the page for Ricky's remade ROM and download his extras. The OMAP clock should be in there. Once installed open it and it will set you processor to whatever speed you want, but make sure to not go over 240 like stated earlier. Don't trust the TCMP's info. Just listen to the OMAP clock. It works perfectly. Later.

[Q] Kernels ain't working for me

Hello there,
I've been flashing kernels since I was in LeeDroid Froyo and got no problems. However since I switched to GB based roms such as RCMix3D and TB Fusion, my phone always freezes when I try setting Kernel-Lee-V3.1.1-2.6.35.13-CALLREC or MDJs v19 to maximum overclock so I have no choice to but to stay on stock kernel. I have no ext3/ext4 partition on my SD card in case you ask.
Current ROM: TB Fusion 1.1.2
Radio: 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2
Any idea what should I do to solve this issue?

yes, your handset freezes because the overclock that u do its too high... underclock it at 1200-1400mhz & try...
and configure SET CPU features... like the standby status, etc....but do it with common sense....
think about that DHD proccessor goes by default at 1gz, really when we overclock the processor we are putting in danger the security of our device

Haha! I know that overclocking is quite dangerous. Back on the froyo days, my phone is quite stable around 1.8ghz so I'm just wondering why is this happening (maybe my phone's processor is starting to fry up? ). Is there any effect if I'm using smartass profile on those kernels I've mentioned?

i hope that the processor works or not works (don´t crashes a little bit...)
but the reason of your freezes maybe (almost sure) because froyo & gingerbread don´t works at the same form, and gingerbread need more resources & stability for to work correct... don´t forget that the kernel manages the hardware...
if u force it......... u know what can happen...

it´s possible, take this explanation, read and judge by yourself what´s the better cpu governor...
smartass (Best explanation i've found paraphrases to: based on interactive, but better.)
----
ondemand
Available in most kernels, and the default governor in most kernels. When the CPU load reaches a certain point (see "up threshold" in Advanced Settings), ondemand will rapidly scale the CPU up to meet demand, then gradually scale the CPU down when it isn't needed. - SetCPU website
conservative
Available in some kernels. It is similar to the ondemand governor, but will scale the CPU up more gradually to better fit demand. Conservative provides a less responsive experience than ondemand, but can save battery. - SetCPU website
performance
Available in most kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the "max" set value at all times. This is a bit more efficient than simply setting "max" and "min" to the same value and using ondemand because the system will not waste resources scanning for the CPU load. This governor is recommended for stable benchmarking. - SetCPU website
powersave
Available in some kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the "min" set value at all times. - SetCPU website
userspace
A method for controlling the CPU speed that isn't currently used by SetCPU. For best results, do not use the userspace governor. - SetCPU website
Interactive
The 'interactive' governor has a different approach. Instead of sampling the cpu
at a specified rate, the governor will scale the cpu frequency up when coming
out of idle. When the cpu comes out of idle, a timer is configured to fire
within 1-2 ticks. If the cpu is 100% busy from exiting idle to when the timer
fires then we assume the cpu is underpowered and ramp to MAX speed.
If the cpu was not 100% busy, then the governor evaluates the cpu load over the
last 'min_sample_rate' (default 50000 uS) to determine the cpu speed to ramp down

You have mentioned about those "resources", is there any special measure that I need to do or what? I'm using the smartass profile on those kernels but still *sigh*
Anyway, I've observed on your sig that yours is overclocked @ 1.8ghz even though you're running GB, me envy

you only should do a good over/underclock & set the correct cpu governor for your daily use....
well, you know ho is @MDeeJaay? the developer of MDJ kernels and roms...
he explained smartass with this words:
SMARTASS GOVERNOR - is based on the concept of the interactive governor.
I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works - by taking over the idle loop - is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the "old" minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 245Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 245 - why?! - it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 998/245 kernel, it will sleep at 245.

no, no buddy... i only show the max speed nothing more... i set my cpu concretly like this;
CPU GOVERNOR:interactive
MAX SPEED:1113 MHZ
MIN SPEED:245 MHZ
PROFILE: screen off; 245 MHZ max.
245 MHZ min.
in adition i´m going to modify my syg LOL
haha..thanks again. I'm gonna try playing with the frequencies to see which will suit me
i hope someone can make a stable 1.8ghz kernel without the freeze
IT´S POSSIBLE but i don´t want to try it LOL
i love a lot my DHD

and if make my max cpu to 806 it lags and contiusoly restarts....if i keep it to 787 its bit lagging .....min cpu frequency i hv kept is 200....which is the best frequency ??????
As governor smartass2 is often prefered.
Some phones do not work with maximum voltage and 804 MHz. You will have to reduce it till your phone is stable.
overclocking MAY damage your device. so be careful.
sorry for this old thread but, i have updated the last cm7 and now i can see more cpu states on setcpu such as 825,844 and 864..i overclocked for using these clocks but cpuspy says that these states are "unused"? Interestingly, setcpu says current state is 864 but not cpuspy? is that a bug?
Nice one, unearthing a thread from february ^^
Even if you select a high frequency, your phone might not be able to handle it.

Is it normal that quick system info reports my cpu clock is at 1.4ghz instead of 1.5?

Hi. I have a rooted HTC One X international version with the quad core processor supposedly. 1.5ghz but when i checked quick system info it says my cpu clock is only running at 1.4ghz. I have set cpu installed and i have ensured that ive set the min and max to 1.5ghz but still it remains at 1.4ghz. I dont know if it was like this before i rooted my device or before i installed setcpu, or if this is just the way its supposed to be. Please advice.
If ever this is unusual, could someone tell me how to fix it? Should i reflash the kernel or bootloader?
Thanks in advance for ur help.

i tried it and the cpu range shows as 51 to 1500 no probs.
try cpu spy, then run a bench mark service, then go back to cpu spy and check if it reached 1500ghz
Oh, sorry if I got misunderstood. Setting the range is NOT the problem. I can set it just fine, and the profiles work well too. It's just that if I set the min and max to 1500mhz, the ACTUAL cpu clock (the large number on top of the min and max sliders) remains at 1400. When I lower/change the min max, the frequency lowers/changes accordingly. But, as I mentioned, the max ACTUAL cpu frequency remains at 1400mhz even though the sliders are already set to 1500mhz.
So, I want to know if that's normal. I read from somewhere that the maximum frequency for multi-core is 1400mhz and the maximum frequency for single core is 1500mhz. But I'm not sure though so I want to verify that information.
Thanks!

[Q] Is it possible to set min clock GPU speed (deep-sleep) ?

Hi
Is it possible, as for today, to set minimum clock speed for GPU when device goes into deep sleep mode (screen turns black) ?
I suppose when phone screen switchess off, gpu speed runs at min speed (300mhz) ?. I would like it to be never less then 450mhz
I don't know, sorry. But you've made me curious, why would you want to keep the GPU running faster than needed, when the screen is off?
You need a custome kernel that supports that and a kernel app that can give the commands. Unless you are good with scripts and feel confident to change that manually.
Sent from my SM-G920T
G4 GPU minimum speeed is 180MHz and max 600MHz. I check it with faux clock but setting dont stick propertly.

It happens that the lowest frequency of gpu kills music played through bluetooth. Its unstable, music skips. I know this for a fact because on rooted lg g3 i played a little bit with it and when setting gpu to at least 350mhz in deep sleep music could be played flawlessly.
Anyways, thats what i wanna do with my G4 and seems when i'll root my phone forthcoming weekend i should be able to do it with "Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro"
It's available from google playstore. Anyone familiar with this tool ?
Finally..
İ find it that settings for gpu, with this setting, you will be able to change the frequency of the GPU in standby mode while the screen off, this setting was 300 mhz by default on my device, so the device was consuming too much battery in standby mode so I made the default standby frequency 180mhz, you can give it the frequency you want
My device is lg g4, gpu frequency range 180 mhz -600 mhz among,
download this program first
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.gogoshopa5.cpusettingsgl
Needs root auhority
After go to gpu tab
Click on button then scroll down
You can see it default_pwrlevel
you can give this value the frequency that the GPU will use in standby mode
For Lg g4 5 equivalent of value 180 mhz
4 equivalent of value 300 mhz
3 equivalent of value 367 mhz
2 equivalent of value 450 mhz
1 equivalent of value 490 mhz
0 equivalent of value 600 mhz
