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.
Hi folks!
How can the HTC Hermes overclock. Did it with some tools tried, but rather less successful. Batteerystatus no, xcpuscalar, overclocked but not really at 472-500 MHz. And with the PHM I can overclock well, but then does my GPRS connection to the Internet no longer work.
Is there a way to change this?

This has been gone over numerous times and no, you can't overclock the Hermes reliably....

i overclock before to 500mhz using XCPUScalar

Although it is possible to overclock Hermes it cannot be done relyabily or without damaging the CPU...
Some utilities may allow an active and practical overclock but I wouldn't advise it...
As you may know, if wou want your Hermes to be more responsive, performant, you can increase your ROM page pool size prior to flashing.
Cheers.
it might not be able to overclock.. but, should be able to keep the cpu locked at 400mhz and not throttle to lower speeds.. which would make it much more responsive.. I've been meaning to test this

The CPU is always at 400mhz. Wtf are you talking about?
no its NOT always at 400Mhz.. it has auto speed scaling built in. something is not right with both tcpmp and gxmark benchmarks.. using the newest PHM I manually set the lowest possible speed of 251Mhz, and disabling built-in scaling thinking of past knowledge that it doesn't do anything to our devices. I should not see any difference right? well visually it is MUCH slower than setting it at 400Mhz with both programs showing the same score at both speeds.. this CANNOT be correct.. I can see it with my eyes a night and day difference.. 420 seemed stable but the scores were showing slower than factory clock.. whats going on here?
this has been gone over so many times in the forum its not even funny any more.
use the search facility...
yes I know, I've read the overclocking threads from two years past.. ever considered newer software might change things? It does identify the processor correctly as a S3C2442A. I still want to know the answer to why benchmarks aren't reporting correctly.. BTW this thread should be moved
here are some results.. with a fresh boot I loaded a 39306KB AVI movie in CorePlayer 1.2.4. I ran its benchmark and also timed it with a stopwatch. The benchmark reported 1.60Mbit/s @ 3 Minutes and 21 seconds, also correct on the stopwatch. 321994752 bits divided by 201 seconds comes out to 1.601 Mbit/sec just like their calcs. Now I opened pockethackmaster 4.33 and set the clock to 420Mhz and reran the coreplayer benchmark. Here's the wierd part, the test reported that it took 4 minutes and 2 seconds with a 1.33Mbit/s rate but in actuality it only took 2 minutes and 58 seconds according to my stopwatch. Do the match, thats 1.809 Mbits/sec real throughput. So overclocking DOES work.. pretty significantly if I might add, but it appears that the timers used in these benchmarks are skewed and not reporting accurate numbers. Someone else try some tests and back me up here.

When i get a tilt I want to overclock my hermes 100 to 900MHZ and see how fast it will melt!! Just kidding

I tried to overclock my oven but after that it keeps buning all my food
Is this process reverseable?
I need too cook a roasted chicken tonight and i will get nothing but a pile of coal...
Please help me!
I searched both the forum and the wiki but couldn't find any answer.
Cheers.

Just take it out really fast, lol.
6 months ago, i tried to overclock my hermes and then it was broken. i mean touch screen cant be touched=)) but i dont know is it about overclocking. just share my experiment

But then you lose Ram, and when you only have 30 or so mb's of it to start its a crapshoot.
sure, it might make some of your videos or games faster but you'll most likely have problems with any data connection
PHM can brick your phone to an irreversable state, and xcpuscalar falsely shows an increase in processor speed. Battery status will not work for the hermes, and I don't think there is a program that will overclock a hermes CPU. As for the not constantly running at 400mhz, that is not a bad thing. Think of it as a P.C., when you are not running apps, there is a system idle process that occupies the majority of the processor, meaning that not all of the speed is utilized. If this is the case, that means that the processor is not running at full speed. Same goes for the Hermes, however there is no system idle process, just a slower clock speed. When you open an app it will reach, but not go over 400mhz.
pleas see attached zip file
this program give you the ability to overclock the hermes up to 420Mhz
i tested it - and at 420Mhz the device becomes slower and some minor flicks of the screen
i went back to 400Mhz and the device went back to usual operation
regards
edward
I too have tried various clock speeds but at the end of it all i left it default as the device was too unstable.
Also I have of course continue my attempts to overclock Hermes, but I am no satisfactory conclusion. At the moment I use xcpuscalar have all possibilities of tuning 500mhz switched on and it is stable. A benchmark I have not done, so I do not know exactly whether he has speed. But the belief puts mountains.

Hi
I got a new i780 about two weeks ago great phone !!
I have since flashed it with 7 different PDA ROM's and im now stuck @ WM 6.5 build 23001 on PDXHL2 ROM.
I have been looking into the scaling of this CPU: PXA311 and I could not find any tweaks for scaling (registry or soft)
So i gave XCPUScalar v3.03 a try. . and no luck. .it worked to some degree but would constantly hangs my OS. So i then took a step back and tried v2.96.
This is what i found:
If your speed setting is @ 100 : 104Mhz real CPU Speed
If your speed setting is @ 200 : 208Mhz real CPU Speed
If your speed setting is @ 300 : 416Mhz real CPU Speed
Then @ 400 and above it goes full blast @ 624Mhz. .
So i find that this chipset and CPU has four scaling settings.
Anyone know how i can get further info of the chipset and it inner workings?
Ps. the phone doesn't like if the PDA version differs from the PHONE and if the phone goes to standby the standard scaling takes over until load is applied to the cpu and then for some strange reason XCPUScalar takes the bat in scaling.
Hope someone finds this interesting
BUMP . . .
The i780 roms do automatic cpu throttling internally. This i realized when i ran TCPMP on the i780. For instance, start tcpmp, let the device settle down to just idle cycles....go over to menu->settings where it displays the cpu speed....it shows 200mhz when no work is being done by the cpu.
the moment u start playing some video, and while playing when you go back to settings, it shows 624mhz....
It looks like this is being handled internally and using any other external software might interfere with this....my 2 cents!
mmmh. . . thats to think about. . . but if i use those settings in XCPU that I posted in the first post, then i would run Pocket PcMark Dhrystone benchmark and check the CPU speed in TCPMP then @ 100 its says 104Mhz . . etc. .
Do you perhaps know how i can make a ROM dump from my phone cheers
how do you check current and readl cpu speed (without TCPMP)?
So, I just rooted my desire and installed pays- rom. I was amazed at the new battery life I was getting until I decided to run a benchmark of the CPU and noticed its stuck on 550mhz. Anyone else have that issue?
ah cmon.. post in pays thread
Sorry but have you noticed the size of that thread? Most rom threads need their own sub forums! Anyways, I just realized that the CPU benchmark app was not reporting the clock speed correctly, so thanks for your help...
Hi there,
Does anyone know what is max CPU speed on HTC Desire(bravo) GSM ??? But it has to be stable and realiable speed,with good performance. I am using No-Frills CPU software to set my CPU speed,and my max speed that I can set is 1.267,also it can be chosen slower speed.
So is software right,can I set it to max(or lower then max) speed and it wont brick or anything ???
I use Supernova XTREME ROM if that tells anything.
Thanks for answers,
Cubbe
mine is always set to 998 max (usually thats default) never needed to change it. soo if it aint broke dont fix it comes to mind

No fixed answer. Every hardware is unique. Try some settings and see what works for you.
