[Q] How do you overclock your Gio?

Hey guys, i got cyanogen mod 7.2 installed on my phone, and whenever i tried to change the max cpu speed from the settings, it would now work after boot. Most of the market programs i use freeze as soon as i try to apply my changes. I got "No-frills Cpu control" to work once, so i made it 844 max clock speed. (I confirm using android system info app"). EDIT: after another frozen reboot, the clock speed has gone back down to 787 again -_- . So frustrating!!
So i was wondering, which app do you use to overclock your gio that doesnt freeze?

you need to tick "set when boot" setting.

Best app for my Gio is Antutu CPU Master.
Set your overclock, thick set on boot and reboot your phone!

Alright, so i got my max set to 864 and min to 245, and while im using it i get a bunch of random reebots every 3 min, and one sleep of death where it wont wake up unless you pull battery -_-. Using built in overclock still

use set cpu.set max 844 is good for gio then tick "set on boot"

I feel that the Smartassv2 cpu profile consumes more battery than the On demand one. Anyone here think the opposite?

Possible. But smartass also gives more performance than ondemand governor

I'll have to try that, I am using on-demand currently

Which is the best governor for gaming performance?

Performance or smartass v2
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

For performance the best governor is "performance". It causes that processor overclocking is always the highest. It means that if you have overclcked processor at 921MHz, with this governor phone will always work at 921MHz. But don't use it, it drains battery as hell
The best governor for daily use is SmartassV2, because it's balance between performance and battery
And sorry for my English :|
Na szczęście jest TapaTalk

which 1 is best for daily uses????
i am using smartassv2 but sometimes my phone becomes very very slow takes 1mint to slide the status bar phone apps etc.....
what is i/o schedular??? is it effect the speed?? which 1 is best???

Now I just use the On demand governor. Smartassv2 drains my battery pretty fast

Yup,any overclock will drain your battery quicker,this is very logical as you consume more power,right?I use No Frills CPU control,and i have my galaxy Gio set to 921 Mhz....! It realy works like asmall little pocket rocket now...I was already very satisfied with the price/performance ratio of this cheap little phone,but now with this stable OC it really hits it out of the park!!!No complaints from me about this phone..I'm gonna try and achieve an even higher oc,but it's really not a must,just want to know how far i can push it.No Frills has a benchmarker impemented ,very handy.

That's true. But smartass is just like balance between perfomance and battery drain, which makes it the best governor

HTC One V Overclock

I am planning on installing a custom Rom and kernel on my HTC One V. The cm10 Rom, with Titanium KISS overclocking kernel to 1.5Ghz. My question is; has anyone noticed much of a performance increase from overclocking? Did your benchmark results improve much etc?
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app

The performance improves like hell, but I don't keep it over clocked all the time to 1.5. Generally, for me even 1.2 or 1.4 brings changes in overall performance. If your phone freezes on 1.5, then your pocesser isn't capable of handling it. So always over clock with care

See overclocking it just provides.better performance for.the app.u are using at that time, u may miss understand but it does.not.give u more ram, 1.5 ghz will eat ur battery like.****
I.recommended 1.2......I use it with np
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app

I get 17-18 hours per charge at 1.5ghz with moderate to heavy usage. Web surfing, gaming, texting, reading books with screen on time of 5-7 hours. I have the cdma version with Virgin Mobile running the latest version of AOKP 4.1.2 and the jellyboot5 kernel. I can watch a full length movie using MX Player and only lose 18-20% battery.

Switch on ur net ...it's apps like whats app......if u use net the whole day...see it wont last 8 hours
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app

I am running my One V at a 1.9Ghz overclock, and I see VERY little difference in battery life vs no overclock.
As long as you are using a sensible cpu scheduler (i use lionheart), and not using apps that burn through as much cpu cycles as possible, your battery life should not be affected much. The Screen and Wifi use far more battery

If you'll read my post, you'll see that includes web surfing, some on 3g, some on wifi. Kinda hard to do with the net shut off. And for the record, I dont use Whastup, Facebook, Twitter or any other social networking apps. I also use Autostarts to control the autorun permissions of my apps and the back button to kill them when I'm done. Nothing runs on my phone unless I want it to. Control your phone, don't let it control you.

I ran at 1.7 for a while with no problems, scaled it back to 1.5, didn't notice a big difference on the battery life before or after modding my speed. It's mostly the apps your using or network I find that drain your battery, not your cpu speed.

Overclocking Apps?

I use setcpu its my favorite works perfect and lots of features, u need a custom kernel if you want to overclock
Sent from my One V

Set CPU allows you to make profiles which is very very useful.

Single core 1G is under recommended requirement by android system nowadays. By overclocking it to 1.4~1.5G won't drain you extra battery because though you have been used more battery at higher clock rate but the time to spend on the process is shorter(spend less time to get it done) and hence, ended up the total consumption is more or less the same. However, this works only with single core system. On Dual/Quadcore S4 cpu, yep it will make your battery drop like hell when you do overclocking because you are overkill, wasting battery.
Modern Qualcomm S2 processor is very mature, it's safe to say every cpu is stable to run at least 1.4G. You will notice huge system speed improvement overall but I want to add that, use smartassv2 instead of on-demand governor after overclocking will make your battery better. I've personally overclocked to 1.5G(mySENSE-v RC3.5 + Titanium-KISS) and notice the battery gone quicker, switched to smartassv2 solved the problem.
SetCPU is good for single cpu only(our One V), it's not supported that well for dual/quad but it's profile is still the most user friendly in the world, good for noobs, you can set it screen-off(make the cpu slower).,etcs. However, almost all other folks are using Kernel Tuner now with dual/quadcore and it's also good for One V but requires a bit more technical knowledge.

Is this the right amount of overclocking

which rom? if your on RC9.5, its fine
but if your on RC3.5, u might wanna OC it to 1.2ghz max coz battery drains faster on sense full roms

i just flashed lean kernel i dont notice a battery difference

am i supposed to change some of the settings?

which rom are you using and which kernel version did you flash?

no I don't have set CPU. I read that you don't need to adjust the settings and it will improve battery. is this true?
I can go under settings then perfromance then processor and adjust min max CPU freq

Not every kernel gives you better battery, some can even drain more power.
Other thing is that sometimes you can't notice much of the improvement in first few cycles. Give it few days and about 3 full cycles. Charge it to 100% and fully discharge.
If that doesn't work try refleshing or using other kernel
Good luck

[Q] What's the best kernel ?

hi all gio users which kernel is the best for gaming performance?

Phiexz Kernel is best for Gamers + it has better performance and stability.

I don't know, maybe you don't need to change kernel..
Just set CPU governor to performance when playing a game..

the performance guvernator is the worst, it keep the freq at maxim all the time that meams battery drains and sometimes instability, the best guvernators for gaming are smartassV2,ondemand,ondemandX,smoothass

But it better than jump from lowest freq to the highest suddenly, and so on.
I think it will drains battery more

here is a little good trick for you
-During the charging of the device,you can set its performance governer and play any games you want,it will gives you better gaming + battery charging
-Or when not charging,you can set its smartassv2 governer and OC him to 883MHZ and play any games you want,this should gives you less lagging in gaming and reduced your battery draining problem.

Actually, good kernel is not only fast, but smooth and stable too, i think some kernel fro phiexz is great, you can try each other.

Problem with Cm 10.1

I have flashed cm10. 1 on my n7100 and the volume is lower than i used to in the stock rom and it consume more battery any help with that
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

I don't think there's much you can do with regards to battery life. I've tried doing what I could to get a good battery life with CM/aosp and the best I could get was 5.5hours screen on time on lowest brightness and 12hours between charges. Compared to stock I get 7-8hours screen time and 24+hours between each charge. There's nothing much you can do with battery life.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

You could flash a kernel like n.e.a.k kernel .. and download their app..
For getting a slightly better battery life, undervolt your CPU by 50-75 mV each step and you also may set the CPU ti 1.4Ghz instead of 1.6GHz
For the sound, using their app, there is an option for speakers and headphones.
Set speaker between 57 and 63(loudest) and same thing for headphones. .

Even with neak kernel or redpill undervolted it still sucks at battery performance. And sometimes under clocking to 1400mhz results in graphic glitches in the UI with aosp. I think its just not designed to manage battery usage as effectively as Stock ROMs.

The problem isn't in Google .. 4.2.2 works with great battery on nexus 4 .. cm can't be like google but they are trying to make the rom as battery efficient as possible
I personally get 5-6 hours of screen time..
I get 6-8 hours on touchwiz.
No big optimizations made.. 1600 MHz and UV 50-75 .. and overclocked GPU for better rendering without UI glitches ..

Of course 4.2.2 is compatible with good battery life.
