Guide on how to operate Setvsel? - Defy General

I just ordered at Defy yesterday to have as a workphone. I would very much like to overclock it to at least 1GHZ so that it at least matches the Iphone 4. I've read that alot of people use a program called Setvsel but couldn't find any video tutorials on Youtube. How does the program work and is there a guide on how to find the sweetspot for you phone in terms of battery-life and performance? I have seen that there are 3 different setting you have to consider: VSel1, VSel2 and VSel3. So how do i do to learn to operate the program correctly without doing something that might harm the phone?
Sincerely
Isak from Sweden

hi there! setvsel is very easy to use, you can set 3 vsel values (n*vsel = 0.6+n*0.0125V) and 3 frequencies. the defy is very undervoltable, so while the default vsels are 33/48/58, i use 17/30/42 at default frequencies (300/600/800), but the lowest vsel for 1ghz was 50vsel for me. you can also set various other things which you can see on the screenshots i uploaded. if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

So can i just copy your values? How does it work if i change it to the values you suggested, should i first set the CPU to 1GHZ and then change the 3 vsel values? What would be the best to start with for me as a noobie? A lot of questions but i know from experience from overcklocking computer CPUs that it can be more complicated then one first thought.
Thanks for you earlier reply by the way/Isak

This is a good thread to read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063537
Just dont tick apply at boot until you know the phone is stable at the values you pick. For 1GHz the default value at Vsel3 seems like a no brainer, it seems to work for everyone.

my values are the lowest i could get, it doesnt neccessarily mean theyll work for you. start 2-3 vsels higher than me then - if stable - lower the values one by one, and test them with stability test. you should know that if you change the values for vsel and frequency at the same time and then click apply, the program first sets the vsel to the new value and then the frequency. that means if you want to set a higher frequency, first set the vsel. if lower, then frequency comes first. it is that easy, nothing that complicated, much simpler than a desktop computer oc.

Can "rooting" a phone harm it/the software in anyway and do i lose my warranty when i do it?

Rooting does no harm, but it allows you to run apps that do.
When your phone is rooted you're out of warranty, but you can restore your warranty by unrooting. Of course there's always the risk of a hardware failure that prevents you from unrooting.

To use Superoneclick i must have Microsoft.net Framework version 2.0 or higher. How do i check which version i'm currently running? I know that i've asked alot of questions but i just want to be sure what i'm doing before i start with a potentially risky operation like overclocking.

If you ordered your Defy last week it probably runs Froyo. That means you can root it with Gingerbreak. You don't need .net for that. You don't even need a computer to root your phone with Gingerbreak.

My plans are that i'm gonna root it with Superoneclick and then overclock using Setvsel. I'm gonna wait for the official release of Gingerbread though. So if i want to use Superoneclick i would still like to know how to check what version of Framework i'm currently running.

Your .net version: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/y549e41e.aspx
Which version of Android do you have? If your phone still runs Eclair then have fun fighting with SuperOneclick, but if you have Froyo (which you probably have right out of the box if you ordered your phone a week ago) you're better of with Gingerbreak.
Don't be fooled by the name. Gingerbreak roots Froyo too and it's a lot faster and easier than SuperOneclick.

.NET Framework version

If you are running Windows XP, have a look at your windows folder, sub folder Microsoft.NET/Framework.
There you will find subfolders for all installed framework versions (1.0xxx, 1.1xxx, 2.0xxx).
If you are using Vista or 7, Framework 2 is already included.

Yes it's Android 2.2 (Froyo) i asked when i ordered it. I think i'll use Superoneclick anyway now that i've know how to use it. The program requires the latest drivers for the Defy installed on my computer. Is it the one named "Motorola 5.0 Driver with MotoHelper" found on the Motorola website i should download and install ?

i dont think so, as the 2.3.3 kernel has 4 vsel/frequency settings, while setvsel only supports three, could cause issues...

What's best performance on Motorola Defy stock 2.2.2 nordic using SetVsel if I want to 1Ghz maxium? Full stability and not too battery heating.

At 1 GHz I'd start at VSel3 = 58. Then run a stability test. If your phone passes the test, tune down VSel3 two units at a time, and check stability at every step.
If you're really lucky you might run 1 GHz at VSel3 = 45. On average the stable setting for VSel3 at 1 GHz is a little over 50.

Summary:
This application is designed for the Vogue, Kaiser, Polaris and Nike devices. It allows you to dynamically overclock your device as well as change the screen density.
Requirements:
This application requires write access to your /system so this will only work on EXT2 and NAND installations.
Overclocking Notes:
Overclocking results will vary. Based upon the beta test results everyone was able to Overclock to 500mhz and have very stable results. Above this results really were mixed. Give it a try, I'd love to hear your results.

Awesome. Can't wait to try.
Will this affect the battery life?
Right now the battery is bad enough with android, but it does sound really nice.
Nice,
will try it out
Overclocking will always effect battery life negatively. Under-clocking will increase it.
You don't always need your Kaiser running at 400 Mhz, but I think Android throttles it anyway.

When sleeping it underclocks to ~200Mhz (it seems that "cat /proc/cpuinfo|grep BogoMIPS" displays something around the clock value).

I've set mine to 500 Mhz, any chanche for overheating (when going higher then 500)?
(I've deleted some .apk packages (voice dialer,...) and together with this tweak it runs really great, almost 40MB free ram whe killing all apps)
Great app. Can someone give a bit more info about the "increase screen dpi" option? When and why would I want to use this feature? What is a "good" value?

I can't say for sure since I'm not the one that developed this, but it seems to me that it should actually save your battery since it underclocks when the phone is sleeping, unless of course you're actively using it a lot while at 500mhz or more, in which case you'd use your battery quicker and run the risk of overheating. Like I said, I can't be certain, so you may want to wait for a reply from myn himself on it.

It should be set at 120dpi by default, at least it was for me. The dpi is "dots per inch," which is pretty much what it sounds like. If you make the value higher, it will make things larger. If you make it smaller, well you get the idea. I played around with it some to check it out, but I'm happy with the default dpi.
Thanks tony. I guess it could be useful for applications that do not work correctly in Kaiser's QVGA, like iGO for example. Would a lower dpi setting compensate for iGO's larger resolution design?
Reducing the DPI makes everything small so iGO might work but it will make reading everything harder.

Hello. I am a new member of the android. I have a My touch 3g Slide. I want to ask a few questions as follows, for your help:
1. How do I install software?
2. What is root? Can guide me? And what is overclocking?
Thank you for reading this.
First to say welcome.
Please read the rules and top stickys to know appropriate posting.
Root cause depends what device but has info on what it is read ROM dev on this sub forum for specifics to device
Overclocking is to increase the CPU frequency which will make device run faster but shorten battery life and induce more heat.
Install software either via market or placing on storage card and using many of the free File Managers available
PS dont double post have removed other post.

There's a couple ways you can do it, I don't have my phone right in front of me, but CM7 has an option in that area... with the "dragons ahead".
OR, a popular way to do it would be with SetCPU.

Its pretty straight forward, but if you have more questions, go ahead and ask.

Then your phone can't handle 844. Some phones can do 844, 864 and even beyond, but it looks like your best bet will be 825. Like my phone D: (But it's still faster than 600 )
400 min shouldn't be a problem, but I usually just leave mine at 245. If you choose to, you can flash different kernels and have different governors, like the "smartass" governer. It's like interactive, but better!

I think other people have had problems with it, yeah. But then again, once you're past 600, you're in OC country.
Have you tried different kernels?

If you use Setcpu to set frequencies it also has a feature that does the same thing. Go to the info tab then select time in state. Tells you everything that app does and more.

Cm7 has a built in CPU setting.

I run min 128 Max 614, still speedy no reboots (unless I undervolt too much)
Also check out vipermod, it was designed around the tiamat kernel to allow you to change the voltages to your CPU. This also helps battery life!

I'm undervolted by 100 and I get get more and more battery life the longer I condition my battery. I'm also set at min 691 and max 921
The more that your phone spends time that it's switching clock speeds (drastic changes) seems like a waste of power.

Awesome, ill try that. is it best to reboot after applying the new settings?
If you just changed clock frequencies then no need to reboot as It's done on the fly. If you change voltages then you need to reboot. Vipermod is an excellent script. I have used it on sense kernels even though it wasn't made for them.
After looking closer at the vipermod script it doesn't say a reboot is required unless going back to factory defaults.

@civicboy, no real need to reboot, make sure the settings don't cause your phone to reboot on its own before checking set at boot. Same goes for undervolting, and, you are more likely to get reboots with undervolting. I have seen peoples phones that wont accept any undervolting... be cautious... do it in 25mv increments to find what your phone can handle... have the reset file on your sdcard at all times. Sounds scary but its really not that bad once you figure it out.
Check back with your results or if you need more info.

Be sure to get vipers zip for reseting to default. This allows you to push the voltages and if you get boot looping you can just flash the reset from recovery.
And I gave you a "thanks" for actually thanking those that help out.

You are talking about the original zip file right? can i just creat a folder called vipermod and store it in that incase of emergency?

there is restore defaults .zip you can flash. Put it on your sd for safe keeping wherever you like and remember.
Terminal emulator is fun to learn too

That's the file you need. Just put it on the root of the sdcard or wherever you know it's at and if you get into trouble going to crazy on voltages just flash it from recovery. It will reset your voltages back to defaults.

[LOLZ] 1.4ghz OC on the Bravo

Those who like to overclock, I have found that 1.4ghz with VSEL at 82 (yeah omg) works good on our Bravos.
It runs stable, no reboots/extreme heat/weird problems and have been running for an hour. So feel free to run between 1 to 1.4ghz, and if you have an extra Bravo, or you're extremely brave, try 1.5

Yes, when your phone, wait for the blue light and press volume down. Then go to CPU settings.
MINE LOOKS LIKE THIS:
Status: [enable]
load all modules: [enable]
Scaling: [Ondemand]
*clk1 [600]
*clk2 [1000]
*clk3 [1400]
-------------------------
*Vse11: [38]
*Vse12: [58]
*Vse13: [82]
But idk I ran it for a while and it got up to 122f. So I would stick with 1.1, 1.2, and maybe 1.3 ghz for normal use. 1.4 if you feel like seeing true power
Ok, I'll try it later when I change the phone digitizer that is broken!
PD: very low activity here in the forum, where is everybody? is that this phone is not very used? or is there another site for motorola bravo?
Thanks for the answer!!

Yes, extremely low activity. And any other website (android central, modmymobile, ect) has way lower activity than the xda Bravo thread.
Anyways, just hang out on the Defy forums, pretty much everything there will work on the Bravo (ROMs work, you just have to port them over)
what are the settings for overclocking to, say, 1.2?

Yes, XDA has the most high activity for bravo, I come from modmymobile and I have a cliq XT and a Backflip also but Bravo is the best of them all, I really like the speed, the screen, resolution, camera is not the best but does a great job taking pictures and recording videos in stock froyo, I hope you guys someday make it work in gingerbread!
PORT ROMS: Thats what I dont know and I would like to know, is it very difficult? is there a way to do it in windows? Or I just have to download a defy rom and flash them in recovery without changing anything?
I dont know how similar are our roms with defy roms and I'd like to know if defy roms can brake my phone if I flash them as they are. (I think thats not a problem becuase we can restore it with RSD Lite )
There are many questions I'd like you please to take your time to answer. I'd like to know everything because have always been wanting to be a developer of any phone, but I felt to lazy
Thanks!!!
I just bought a Motorola Atrix 4G to upgrade my phone/service so I'll probably test this out with my Bravo.

Read through dev sections and get much answers
I usually do how to port in miui thread
Cm7 and miui can almost direct port because they use froyo kernel..
Other roms like ginger blur are not easy as they use ginger bread kernel

for bandroidx overclock rom when i do 1.2 ghz i do 63 vsel or 62 and its stable. you just drain the battery faster my fav setting is 1ghz and leave it stock vsel and it it just purs
Tried 1.4G out but with 85. see if I can post the screenshot
You can also make an init script that controls vsel on demand up to 1.4

Do you think you could help me getting more levels? There's only three all the way to 1.4ghz, I had mine at 600mhz, 1000mhz then 1.4 ghz. Is there a way to make more steps in between? And I don't need to know now, I just sent in my Bravo because it had 2 dead pixels
@BravoMotorola
Hey man, I think you can help me with modifing a framework from gingerblur, I would like to add some languages if there is a way and its possible.
Are you working also in making photo camera works? Thats the only thing we are missing after all.

[Q] One X overheating and not going into low cpu speed - Trickster MOD

Hi there!
I have 2 HTC One X, one of them is overheating in normal use and the other, with exactly the same use, is not.
I mean normal use by 10 minutes on facebook, 5 min on e-mail program, 5 min on internet browser.
Both have the same stock ROM version with Android 4.1.1, HTC Sense 4+, Software Number: 3.14.707.24.
During the tests they were not charging, almost same battery level and same installed and running apps. Also were purchased the same day in the same store. The only things that actually changes are the accounts, contacts and other personal data.
After use I have checked on Trickster MOD app to compare the temperature. And the Hot One X was really hotter, as expected:
- Hot One X:
Battery temperature: 42ºC Health: Good
CPU temperature: 52ºC
- Other One X:
Battery temperature: 35ºC Health: Good
CPU temperature: 39ºC
But, besides that, I saw something odd on the "Hot One X", it was not going into low cpu speeds.
Trickster MOD says:
Not Used States
51 MHz, 102MHz, 204Mhz
This explains why is getting hotter.
Also this is only happening on the "Hot One X", on the "Other One X" the Not Used States list is empty.
Here is a screen shot of the Hot One X:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, comparing to the "Other One X", the 340Mhz cpu speed is much less used on "Hot One X", what means it uses more higher speeds. There was no lags on neither phone.
So my question is:
Is there any way to make it use also the low speeds? I mean, is there any configuration for this?
I think that maybe there is some way to enable/disables cpu speeds, or make a profile: uses more that, less that.
If that is true, how to do it?
Thanks
anyone have any ideas?
Anyone facing the same issue? Install trickster MOD free from Play Store and check your One X
Which governor are you using?

Both using "ondemand", but I tried "conservative" too and the same issue. Also I tried "powersave", but both devices became so so lag that I couldn't even open any other app (about 5 seconds to scroll down a page) so I selected "ondemand" again.
The overheat was happening on the Hot One X since the Jelly Bean update, even before Root Unlock and Trickster MOD. The Trickster MOD just helped me to guess what was happening.
tried factory reset already?
Reflashing rom and kernel might help
Or a simple RESTART might help too.

Yes, I've tried factory reset 2 times with Jelly Bean.
Haven't tried to reflash the rom, I'd like to use the original rom Jelly Bean or ICS, is that possible?
Isn't there any configuration for enable/disable cpu speeds?
Restarted several times using: turn off / turn on, restart from menu, turn off / hold power button for 20 sec. (slow startup), disable fast boot and restart.
Thanks
Any more ideas?
maybe you had mods installed on the other one? i had this before the cpu wont go down 1.5hz and then it over heats
Sorry, what mods do you say?
By the way, both devices were hard reseted and were installed exactly the same apps.
Isn't there any way to enable/disable cpu speeds? I guess it should be that somehow, maybe failure applying htc rom update.

Maybe mods like changing build props etc or sound mod or mods that changes framework my suggestion flash a rom without any mods then check and see if itll fix it.

It's a stock Jelly Bean rom, original, never flashed any other ROM. It's rooted right now, but the issues appeared before root.
Maybe u can try to flash new kernel or better yet flash stock rom again see if it still like that.
