I have TornadoPowerControl installed and working on my Excalibur and would like to know what is the fastest settings I can clock the excalibur without damaging it..?? right now i just have it on AUTO.. Fastest is 204MHZ
Hi, I am trying to install this program as well, but having a little difficulty finding the download for Compact Framework Version 2.0 SP1...I would greatly appreciate if you could help me out.....regarding the highest stable clock speed, I have been testing it at 252 and 264 and personally feel that 252 is pretty stable....thanks for your time.
Regards,
Here's the link i used to DL the .NET Cf.. so 252mhz is stable..? how long u been clocking at that speed for??
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&displaylang=en
apologize for the late reply, thank you for the link....works great, yes my S620 has been overclocked at 252 close to a month now, so far so good.....I did try it a 264 for a while but didn't really notice that much difference and plus I didn't want to take a chance on draining the battery any faster...at 252 my battery still last the whole day on a full charge with a few hours on the phone, couple of hours on wifi, and a couple of hours of watching a movie (via TCPMP)...I have it overclocked all the time at 252 even when it comes out of stanby/and after a soft reset....hope this helps....
In MY business environment, htc s620 with bluetooth enabled and push e-mail enabled, with 15-25 phone call a day, some internet browsing, without tornado power control the battery ends before dinner, and sometime also dinners are part of the business !
My Hermes? always a USB-MINI USB adapter is in my pocket! Wizard? something better! Nokia 6310i? 2-3 days!
Lesson Learned: downclocking is more important in .BIZ than overclocking!

log int xda ftp and you will find just the cab file that you need, instead of the 22 mb download from MS. i am attaching total commander for smartphone it has ftp and reg editer, if you type this into any desktop browers or pocket explorer it will login.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/ xda:xda meaning usernameassword for any other ftp sites. hope that helps.
actually both files will be in ftp excalibur folder. side note you probalby know this, but all files that need or require desktop install, just go to c:\program files\microsoft activesync and you will find the cab file, nice to store for later use. sometimes they will be seperate folder instaed activesynce, well hope some part of this was of any use
Ok i set OmapClock to 252mhz, and i set TornadoTotalControl to 228mhz.. am i doing it right?? i just overlooked my settings and now i think i have it set up wrong.. when i set OmapClock to 252mhz and set the clock its fine but when i reopen OmapClock again it reset back to 132mhz.. is it because when it hibernates the clock resets its speed?? Isn't TornadoTotalControl suppose to keep it overclocked?? hmm.. opinions please.. thanks..

YES! found: I forgot to connect the brain before starting the engine
Simply you have understoood why your S620 processor is a 200 Mhz processor, because is GUARANTEED working at 200 Mhz! Any overclock isn't, read the DISCLAIMER in Tornado Power Control before testing it at 300 Mhz!

Because you CAN'T pair the words "stable" and "overclock", otherwise, if it was stable at 220 Mhz (or 230 or 250 whatever) they will sell it as OMAP 220 Mhz, instead of OMAP 200 Mhz!
OVERCLOCK means "OVER THE STABLE CLOCK CERTIFIED FROM COMPANY"

That is incorrect. It has nothing to do with stability. It has everything to do with optimal battery life. HTC made their phone with a 200 MHz chip because it provides optimal battery life. Once you overclock it, even 10%, you significantly reduce your battery life due to the faster CPU speed.
An OMAP CPU rated at 200MHz doesn't mean that it won't run stable at 240MHz or higher. The last two phones I've had I ran overclocked 240MHz for months without issue.
Whether or not your phone will run stable at 240MHz is a crapshoot, however... Basically, you can step up the overclocking until the point where the phone locks up and reboots itself. One or two steps below that is the "safe" overclocking speed.

This is the link to the processor scheme... the data sheet clearly state for the ARM926EJ subsystem MAXIMUM frequency as 200 Mhz
Isn't only a power problem, is also a heat problem and in some conditions it could be critical. Also the other subsystems couldn't accept data at that frequency, depending from tolerance related to building technology and may be the ARM processor works but other components (EDGE, Bluetooth, WIFI, ... ) could overheat.
That's why the overclocker builders always say: USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK

Summarizing:
Insn't common to fry a processor just for a little (20%) overclock and normal conditions, but if you overclock more than 20% and use it at full power for a couple of ours you love to live on the edge man!

actually, you can pair the words. I am coming from a PC Gamer standpoint. Look at 3 things
1.) how long will it most likely last if I OC it
2.) Do I plan to have this device for that long? (most cases "no")
3.) can it handle my workload (gaming) without crashing or freezing. (if yes then stable, besides those companies that certify things certify them under a very strict bar.)

Another way of looking @ it is that most CPU's come in underclocked the reason why so we buy a better model, even more recently we find CPU's just with cores disabled so as they fit into the lower price bracket, so a stable clock is more than capable on many CPU's obviously depending on other factors RAM speed, BIOS blah blah blah "sorry just far too many factors"
Lets just now go back to these tiny PC's "PPC's" it's the same principle Stock frequencys lower than HTC\M$ stated the device runs @.
If my [email protected] are too warm then i OC'd too much, if the screen whites i OC'd too much, the device freezes i OC'd too much.
Sod it 240MHz and stable what more do i want? A substancial speed boost without an excessive heat load.

Hi,
Does over clocking the compact III give it more performance?
How does one overclock it in the first place?
i tried to search the artemis threads but could not find any information
Search for Battery Status Today Plugin

thanks for the response and the link
how did i miss that one ??
No problem. I had the same question a few days ago so knew what to look for. (For the record I have my P3300 at 260 using the Battery Status Today plugin and it is stable for everything including TomTom. The difference in performance is quite noticable when multitasking.)
thanks for the reply,
what is the normal speed of the orbit/compact III/p3300?

Hi, not a very long term user, but my O2 Orbit runs fine at 273 with BatteryStatus. 289 seems not to be stable for me.
My P3300 runs max. at 273MHz. 286MHz makes device unstable, when it is full loaded.

The normal speed is 201, I believe. Overclocking creates more heat, takes more power, but seems to be stable when used in moderation (270ish max).
I had to take it off my phone because even overcloking to 210something caused me to not be able to stream video with WMP over wifi.

201 is the stock speed.
Overclocking could damage your device, especially if you push the edges of the chip's ability. Further continual over clocking might lessen the lifespan of the device.
That said there seem to be a good number of people overclocking to 250-260 without any obvious adverse effects. It may cause harm but for the most part seems safe as long as done in moderation. No one can say for certain though, it is a calculated risk.
Well BatteryStatus is your big friend here. The beta version (1.04) has an option called cpu scaler. I use it all the time. It works like this: you tell the program what you want to be the lowest cpu speed (for example 100Mhz) and you tell give in what the highest clockrate should be (for example 260Mhz). Depending on the load on you device BatteryStatus scales the clockspeed down or up. So when needed it gives you the extra power, and when not needed it will slow the device down, saving extra power and also saving the life of the processor.
I personally use the speeds mentioned above. But, when the speed is scaled down to 100Mhz the screen starts flickering a bit. If I were you I would not go down the 100Mhz.

Hi folks,
today my artemis is died.....
He only shows the start screen (T-Mobile Logo) and won´t to da any more... useing bootloader mode an flash the rom back to wm5 (WM6 was before) is successful but then is the same, only starting logo and nothing more.... (he fews me this for more than 5 hrs now....)
I used Battery Status with @ 260 MHZ...
Maybe this was the problem...

it uses an omap850 processor so you could use omapclock to overclock (read the readme's before using!!).
However, 299 MHz isn't regarded stable on a omap850, I wouldn't recommend overclocking over 260 MHz.
Any higher step should be carefully tested.
But there are people who have higher clockspeeds without any problems, and others who have problems with 260 MHz, its really up to the processor, just like with PC processors, not every processor can be clocked to the same speed.
Add to the above, 247 Mhz seems safe for most OMAP 850 I've played with and I've heard nothing bad from other people neither. 247 Mhz should be just enough for 100%+ playback with qvga videos in tcpmp.
but it's bound to give a batt time hit
Im new to the ppc world and i was wondering, where can i find this overclocking program? its just amazing how much you can do with these devices!!

Which application name use for Touchflo in order to overclock?
The APLAUNCHER.exe?
APLAUNCHER
most likely mean application launcher
so unless that application launcher launch
the application called OmapClock.exe
prob not
it should all be made clear in many of the hits the google link i posted
I have been using Battery Status Ext 1.04 to overclock my Touch.
I overclocked it to 247 and with a speed burst to 260 and it rests at 143. Works great and I haven't ran into any issues. Battery obviously gets eaten a little faster but I keep the screen brightness low...

I was wondering, the 3D performance is a lot better on the kaiser when using the video drivers (of course).
But is there any way to get the 3D driver to work in android?
Since i don't think it's possible to just install the driver on WM and then run Android because it fully shuts down WM i was wondering wether there's a way to get that nice smooth performance on Android as well.
Or is there any app that makes the kaiser a bit faster (graphics wise)?
Thanks a lot!!!
Answer:
3D Drivers are implemented (if that's the correct word (I'm from Belgium so)) in Android.

Aren't they allready implemented using opengl????
If your running android you already have the drivers, they are in the kernel. I think we need to make a big sticky of that somewhere, third time ive seen it asked this week.

As has already been said, HW3d is implemented into the kernel which utilises the qcom chip in our kaiser's, but the hardware graphics acceleration although better then nothing is pretty crap compared to the new phones coming along so you can't expect miracles, just be glad it has any at all and android can actually use it unlike window mobile!

No, it is quite impressive for an old timer, but obviously it can't keep up with the new hardware on the market and therefore the applications/games that are targeted at these devices. It's also a shame it isn't man enough for new video codecs although installing arcMedia which uses FFMpeg as it's backend improves things a little and gives support for more formats.
Thank you for answering, i had no idea it was integrated into the kernel.
I've heard that the kaiser had a quite good video chip but that's probably compared to the other phones at that time .
Well my phone is running Quake2 at about 10FPS (a bit higher (about 15-20) when looking into corners etc.) and i was hoping for a bit higher rate but it seems it isn't very easy to gain that on android.
Thanks a lot again for this quick answer, i haven't found any post on the forum wich answered my question so...

Haven't looked well enough then it seems.
I'm sorry.
awhile back I looked at the performance of our integrated 3d and it is about on par with a rage 128 from what I remember... which is pretty bad lol not to mention that on android we have to run through java and we have a pretty weak fpu. I mean in linpack with my barebones rls 3 and overclocked to 572 mhz I get 3.8 mflop/s which is pretty bad lol. That was with JIT working properly even.

And there's the batt consumption issue... even if it can be reached ull need a really really long lasting extended batt, I got a Seidio Inocell 1600mAh, in a donut with .25 kernel and oced to 470, my batt last me like 10-12 hours if I use moderate wifi, bt or gps and keeping my data to 2g only.... If I try to keep my wifi or gps turned on all time and use 3g probably it wouldnt last more than 4-6 hours.

Well since the data here costs a lot of money (i don't know what it's like where you live) i rarely use it.
GPS is off and wifi is only on when at home or for a short period of time.
BT is also rarely used and off when not used.
I'm using a 2880Mah battery so the clocking won't be that much of a problem and i can recharge it every night so.
Aren't there high costs for 2G and 3G? it's waay to expensive to have it turned on all day.
Would i get any problems when clocking to around 500Mhz or smthng like that?

As i've said before many times there is no risk in overclocking past 528 because we are not touching the voltage going to the cpu when we are overclocking it, just the crystal that controls the frequency it is running at. There is a slight heat increase and loss of battery consequentially because of that extra heat but that is it. I am speaking from experience overclocking a 2.4 ghz celeron E2200 to 4.25 ghz on air cooling with no disatrous results and used it as such every day. Basically I overclocked it with a pinmod for voltage and FSB increases and then I overclocked it further with the motherboard and supplied even more voltage. For the heatsink I used an OEM socket 775 heatsink and had no problems at all, it typically ran about 48 Celsius. If an overclock that high and potentially harmful won't kill the cpu then certainly one of a much smaller % is not going to harm a little kaiser.
FYI I took the voltage on that Celeron to 1.7 volts to get it that high. Stock is 1.1 if I recall

See BSEL pin mod for socket 775 as it isnt a gigabyte board that should send your OC soaring through the roof since it doesnt use CPUID for configuring its clock speed on boot.

you have reason.... NO GOOD IDEA lol
in a kernel thread (a lot of time ago...) i was read... that was not recomended overclock avobe of 1600 Mhz... And atention important!!! don´t underclock down 170Mhz more or less (because can be the devece cannot exit from standby mode when you unlock the screen....) i cannot remember what was be the thread but i really believe that there is not a concret limit for overclock....
sure that it´s not good any tipe of overclock for improve the performance...
but i have a hero overclocked at 714 mhz (factory stock at 525 mhz) since 2009 and NO PROBLEM never,,,,
and my DHD overclocked at 1200 mhz (with a quality kernel in mode smartass)
and underclocked at 245 mhz more or less and no problem....
judge by your self but use the common sense... cheeeers
At the moment i have it on smartass to 1459 max and 230 min and it seems fine. Do i just judge it on the CPU temp, and if it stays quite low (Around 30c) then im fine?

it depends buddy...
maybe its well.... the normal temp. of my batt. in use is 33-35º (but here in spain we are now at 30º !)
but my question is... are you really sure about its neccesary overclock our DHD?
I think that still DHD supports well all kinds of software with 1 GHZ of power...
maybe for a future thinks....or for gamming but always u can overclock for use a game and then return to 1ghz...
it´s only a suggestion... maybe another OP uses the processor of different mode...
The overclocking limit differs from device to device, so there is no general answer.
As a rule of thumb, when you start getting random revolts or crashes, you have gone too far.
If you want a more professional way, just slowly turn the clock of your CPU up and run a stress test after each time. It takes a bit more time but should get you pretty good results.
How long should i leave the stress test running for?
The reason i want to overclock it a little is that it just runs a bit more smoothly with it over clocked a bit. Just everything in general seems a bit better to use, its not really for gaming etc.
Hello.
My friend say that he can over clock this thing to 1.5 ghz but i don't believe him.
So what is the maximum clock speed?
800mhz and it's unstable.
Your friend is bullshitting. No way can a lower end single core be clocked that fast, it would simply just burn out.

You can't oveclock over 800 mhz. Ok maybe i lie, you can overclock over 800 mhz but it be hot like sun in core. sorry for my English

There is absolutely no rule of thumb for overclocking.
One CPU might handle 800+ MHz (806 MHz seems to be reached by benjamingwynn - nice speed!) and other might handle only 760-780 MHz stable for example. Don't forget that overclocking isn't an exact science. It more like an art!
It depends on many variables: the batch, the place in the wafer where you CPU came from, the voltage you're pumping, the cooling provided, etc.
Some CPU's don't need much voltage in order to scale speed, others need a big voltage increase in order to handle the extra speed. And there are others that simply don't scale well and can only handle weak overclocks.
And of course there is always a theoretical limit.
Anyone who says that he/she can overclock a 600MHz CPU to 1.5GHz lies with all the teeth and is an ignorant, with all due respect.
I know no CPU in the world that can overclock to 150%. Not even with extreme cooling (Liquid Nitrogen or other Subzero solutions) and other crazy mods. Now imagine this on a small device like a smartphone, where you can't properly change the cooling of the CPU in order to cope with the extra heat generated.
The phone would most likely burn in smokes.
I know a little bit about this matter because I have experience in overclocking PC CPU's. I know most about Intel CPU's (Dual and Quad-Cores, still haven't touched a hexa-core...), cooled on air or with liquid cooling.
The PC I work with every day has a Quad-Core CPU that is 3.2 GHz stock (QX9770) and is running at 4 GHz. It can handle more but the extra heat and voltage needed isn't worth the extra speed (and the accelerated degradation of the CPU).
Sorry for the offtopic guys but I had to reply to this anecdote.

Totally agree.
great explanation for anyone wondering why their device won't overclock like somebody else's.

Well said. This is very off topic but how would you overclock on windows? You have to mess about with the kernel right?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
Normally from the BIOS.
But you can also overclock from within windows using certain applications.
BIOS is the better option.

I got a laptop and I bet you haven't seen the BIOS setup on a Sininia 510 or you would break down crying.

A lot of laptops have crippled bios's so there is no overclock options mainly due to the heat/cooling factor.
Laptops run pretty hot already.
Does your laptop have any overclock/frequency Settings?

All the finetuning (voltages and so on) is done in the BIOS. My motherboard is actually designed for overclocking.
It's an "old" Asus Rampage Extreme.
You would be amazed with the amount of settings it has!
It also comes with Windows software that allows some realtime adjustments but the "core" lies in the BIOS.

806 here and never frozen once in months...Runs cool too. Once of the lucky ones I guess.
Yep I'm in the 806 club too.

Mine also runes ok with 806 setting
miguelca i'am on 1055t oc'ed to 3.9 24h...(hyper 212+ push-pull)
I'm running on 768 and it is fast enough. You can feel that the device gets warmer with 806 and needs a bit more battery.

Nice OC aigaming! but never forget that CPU's do degrade over time, even if some people tell you the contrary.
If you keep your CPU cool and don't give it too much voltage to "eat", then everything should be fine for a long time. Still don't abuse it too much, this is my personal advice.
You have a nice cooler and with a push pull config it should keep things cool.
Mine is an old Tuniq Tower 120 (copper block lapped by me when I still had lots of patience) with the stock fan changed. I don't use the fan controller that came with the cooler btw.
My CPU used to be cooled on liquid but I have a way too limited case in order to accomodate the radiators, pump, reservatory, etc. Sold all the gear.
Keeping my beast at 4GHz on air is VERY NICE.
Once again sorry for the offtopic guys. I had to reply to this. I know I could have used a PM but I'm in a hurry.
I wish the HTC 2.3.5 RUU would have a kernel with overclock option for the CPU...
Anyone available to change the HTC RUU with an overclockable kernel?
Or am I saying nonsense? Probably CRC check would fail and I could only flash it with temp-root, right?
Would really appreciate being able to push my CPU just a little bit more...
The only single-cores I know of that can actually reach 1.5Ghz overclocked are devices running a Qualcomm MSM7x30 (Desire Z) or an MSM8255 (Desire HD/Xperia Play/Sensation XL [stock speed, same processor]/etc).
