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?

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

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.

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

hey guys
Yesterday I switched from the HTC Stock rom to the nightly cyanogenmod 7, latest version as of today.
Now my question:
i have the feeling that the phone is a bit slow compared to the htc stock rom (of course I have activated USB Debugging). Now my question is if it is recommended to flash another kernel.
I experience the performance loss for example on the homescreen and in the app drawer, it just doesnt feel that smooth any more... which is strange because the cyanogen mod uses the adwlauncher and I had the same launcher on the stock rom, running very smoothly.
Now is it just my immagination or am I not the only one experiencing that "problem".
I appreciate any comments
greetings from switzerland
I'm on build 12 now and find it very fast and stable. I am using adw launcher without any lag. Did you do a complete wipe before the upgrade?
As for the kernel, these are currently no kernels that work for cm7, how ever the stock kernel is very good and will overclock to 1.5ghz if you want it to.

No I'm not using any of this stuff... I tried to sort out everything that may cause the performance drop but with no results..
What linpack and quadrant scores are you getting after a reboot? You should really run each one 3 times and take an average, this will let you know how slow it is (not a 100% test but it'll help)
Also might be worth having a look at "Power Tutor", it'll be able to tell you which programs are using the cpu the most, might find one that is hogging it for some reason.

How exactely do I get those scores?
//EDIT: Ok results: about 40 - 41 Mflops, Time ~2s, Norm Res 5.68, Precision 2.22etc
Have you tried downloading spare parts off the market and setting screen animations to fast, might be them that make it look like its running slower. Be Dr this I an running out off ideas, your score on Linpack is about right for a stock kernel, yet could try running setCPU and have the CPU running a little faster, I have mine running at 1.2ghz for day to day stuff.

If you are using apache14's kernel and use smartass that is your problem.If it's stock CM kernel I don't know...Try setting the governor to performance in setcpu and re-run the benchmarks.Telling us your kernel and CPU clock would help!

I can usually get to the end of the day and still have about 30% left, but I an a heavy user and running the WiFi all evening, do a good 3-4 hours of browsing each day as well as other stuff.
This is not a problem for me as I charge every night. You should give it a go, if its no good return it to normal.

And you do experience a performance boost when overclocking it to 1,2 ghz?
Yes mate, I have a few profiles setup, when charging I have it set to 1.5ghz on performance, normal running is 1.2ghz on interactive and screen off set to 245mhz powersave. The phone is very fast, wakes up well and isn't doing to bad with the battery. The battery life will get better as the development of the Rom continues.

I just flashed the latest nightly build of 15 and it is just as fast as stock rom. Did not notice any slowness.
My questions is why do we need to use setcpu when we can use built in cpu tuner on CM7, profiles?? Last time I check whenever your not using your phone ei. screen off or left it by the table your cpu will automatically tune it to the lowest right??
EDIT: maybe we need profiles for battery percentage

wondering the same thing
I have always been a user of SetCPU and profiles, but two days ago I finally decided to give to built-in CPU tuner on CM7 a try, and it seems a little better on battery life and I do not notice any diffrence in the performance. I think I will stick to using the built in CPU tuner for now and see how it goes.
I've been using the built in cpu on CM7 for 2hours it drained me 19% of the battery light usage but I'm gonna try until it drains to 0%, my battery normally last for 13-16 hours on setcpu 248-1017 profile and I'm using the same on built it.

hi, I'm currently using no frills CPU to manage my CPU speed, with Virtous unity ROM, max is 1.5ghz, shall I do 1.2 ghz and leave it on demand or performance? What would use up the battery more?
also, what do the other options do apart from performance and on demand? Like interactive and conservative etc?
I currently have mine set at 1.3 (ondemand), do not choose performance it will drain the battery.

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?

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 :|

i am using smartassv2 but sometimes my phone becomes very very slow takes 1mint to slide the status bar phone apps etc.....

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

Well i think its just not possible to throttle the CPU speeds at the moment. Didn't find a application that actually works.
SetCPU etc etc all fail at the job. Tegra chip is overruling them all the time it seems.
