No Frills CPU Control works!

So i was looking around on App Brain for some rooted apps, and came across this. Figured i would give it a shot, figured no one had tried it yet on a dinc 2. And what do you know it works, Set my clock to 1.024, of course you have to be rooted to try this app. but since there aren't a lot of kernels out there, and the one that is doesnt work well with my rom, figure i will give this a shot for a while.
Anybody try this app? Confirm this works, seems to work for me.

I have used it, but it doesn't overclock because the stock cpu clock is 1GHz, or 1024MHz. I guess it could be used to underclocking, but thats about it.

Hmm seems to run a bit better...but who knows...at least its something until i can get a working kernel.
Any little bit helps

SetCPU overclocks right? I've got mine set at 1.305 MHz, but it has no modified Kernel, so I wanted to be sure that I'm really getting 1.3 GHz out of my processor

Download a system info app. Will tell you your CPU speed
sent from an under rated phone

I use it... I love it.
It even lets you set I/O scheduler.
Also, if your phone does an "unclean" reboot, the app wont apply your setting on next boot.

Setcpu will not overclock unless you have an oc kernal. You must be using a non-stock one.

This app will give you your CPU stats so you can test, so you can underclock or overclock. Depending on what you want.

[q] htc wildfire s overclock

I have htc wildfire s ...i hav rooted ...i want to overclock it 806 mhz.....pls tell me the procedure to overclock..
I am using htc wildfire rom ..pls help

First you need a kernel that supports overclocking.
If you using a stock Rom then look for the kernel that matches your Android version eg. 2.3.3 or 2.3.5 you will find them in the development section posted by Jikantaru
If you install a custom Rom then it will most likely have an overclockable kernel baked in.
To change clock settings I recommend 'no frills CPU' search it in the market or you could use set CPU.
Once you install one of the above apps then change the min and max sliders to the desired frequency.

if we over clock it much does it effect the speed or hardware of the phone?

Your phone may hang.
There is SetCPU for XDA members:

You will definitely get better performance and it shouldn't cause you any problems.
Use no frills CPU I find its better than set CPU, when restarting your phone set CPU doesn't keep your overclock settings even though its set on boot.
As for the govonor settings I would choose smartass2 and noop for the scheduler.
I would keep the minimum frequency on 245MHz it can go lower but it could cause some issues (lag and slow unlocking and waking)
Note: not all cpu's are capable of running at the same speed, I'm lucky mine can run at 806MHz but some people have issues.
If you notice any problems like freezing etc, then drop the speed to a lower frequency until you find the sweet spot for your CPU.

I had mine at 806 MHz with no problems

so it wont cause hardware problems only lagging and other stuff

Should be fine mate.
But remember if in the very unlikely event something does go wrong I wont be held responsible.

youll have to need an overclock kernel for that. (and a rom which supports one)
go for dust kernel or cake kernel! These two are well known for high end kernels!

[Q] Phone performance

Hi,
Im having some huge problems with performance on my phone.
Earlier I was on stock, now I am on x3reme sense
Usually when I go to Apps, and I see space available for apps it shows me around 400mb
When the Phone is really lagging and unresponsive, the space it shows me is around 90mb. I am really confused as to what is eating that space sometimes?
Another issue is that the phone takes over 5 minutes to open a SMS thread, i think it gets stuck in a loop while searching for contacts. Any ideas for improvement?

Try different governors & i/o scheduler.
I dont have this problem
i use smartassV2 with bfq
Try it.

OKay. What is the min & max clockspeed you suggest?

Which kernel do you use for bfq? With the kernel I'm using (jmz) I get only a cfq, sio , noop and deadline option

I m using Titanium kiss
use cfq.

use stock rom.

use stock, over clock or make a swap. I don't know if its psychosomatic but after making a swap all of my problems went away with pacman.
when I oc, I usually keep the min as low as possible, and for the max 1400. I use Lionheart and noop or deadline. it depends. if I'm playing games I usually clock it a little higher.

Unable to stick at lower CPU freq

I am currently using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2306650 , but i doubt its the rom fault.
Using the MIUI settings, Antutu CPU master, or ROM ToolBox, applying a lower CPU max freq will not stick.
Ex: The max is 1890mhz, but i want it at 1566mhz for the max. After turning the phone off and on, the max CPU freq. goes back to the original 1890mhz. With a reboot, it sticks, half the time.
What do i do? Please reply ASAP, my S4 gets hot while playing games so i like to underclock it.

With many years of experience, the best thing I can tell you is to not place a MHz cap that is too high. Your phone can potentially be a potato if you're not careful.

SetCPU has different profiles to configure. And which ROM are you on? There might be an init.d script adjusting the frequencies. SetCPU will apply them AFTER any init.d scripts are ran so that should fix it. I loved SetCPU till ktoonsez made his own app.

the rom i am on is in the first post.
How do i check the script if it is?
Meh, till i figure that out, time to use SetCPU. I MUCH prefer Antutu Cpu Master Pro, a profile for overheating? Hell yes, i set mine to 1.2ghz at 105 degrees F. and 1.5/1.6ghz when its normal. Helped ALOT

Oh darn. It worked for a bit. Now instead of going back to normal max frequency after a reboot or boot up, it does it when I'm using the phone.
Does PAC ROM have this issue? If not, I'll use pac rom instead. Or it may be a kernel problem? Idk much about android stuff

Sounds like the kernel is overriding certain things in different scenarios. I'd try a different kernel.

[Noob Guide] What is and How to Undervolt

Hello, i wanna share my experience undervolting.
For people who dont know what undervolting is, its the power or energy that the battery send to the CPU with determinate clock speed.
For example:
384 Mhz is the lowest frequency of our CPU, it has a 800mv volt in the stock ROM with stock kernel.
So in theory, the battery send 800mv to the CPU when it runs at 384 Mhz.
The effect of undervolt the CPU is bassically get more battery life and at the same time reduce the temperature of the phone.Less energy send less battery used and less hot phone in our hands.
How to Undervolt
Im running Stock ROM with Ruby Kernel stable.
For undervolt you need a kernel that support it, you can do it in all rom if the kernel support that.
If you want to Undervolt, i recommend you to use Trickster MOD.
You can Undervolt maybe -50mv all frequencies and see how it goes. Some people can even in best cases undervolt -200 mv. But you need patience to test slowly.
DONT TICK SET AT BOOT IF NOT TESTED.
That why you cant:
For example if you undervolt -100mv and if not stable, and you have set at boot ticked, it will freeze the screen and after reboot it will happen again.
After you set the mv for undervolt, download from play store CPU stability test and run it.
It will test all CPU frequencies to see if it is stable.
If you dont get any SoD, congratulations its stable.
My undervolt settings are -100 or in some cases -75 mv and very stable. My battery temp is 30 C°.

Thank you very much

What is needed to undervolt?

Thanks for the info. What are your battery stats after undervolting? How does it suffer other operations of our mobile like browsing or gaming etc ?
Sent from my LG-E975 using xda app-developers app

You need to first make a backup, install a custom kernel, install trickster mod, and from there apply what this discussion is talking about. Good luck!

Bootloader unlocked with freegee and some kernel for your rom that supports undervolt.

Depends on the kernel. I am using Trickster Mod with Viper ZVC kernel. There are other control apps available -- some of them are kernel-specific, some are more universal (Kernel Tuner, Android Tuner, System Tuner, etc.). Look in your kernel's thread -- the developer usually tells which control app(s) to use with it.

Thank you, I'm using AK kernel with UKM and Synapse app from google playstore. Using E-975 (intl.). Can you suggest if I should change the global setting or the individual settings for frequencies ? I had recently (soft) bricked my phone by running benchmark at ~1900mhz CPU and 487mhz GPU (like a villain, I know. Re-connected battery to save it... phew..). I'm really cautious now and I just want it to be less hot and save some battery, that's all. Any guidance would be really appreciated... thanks
