Dopod U1000 Processor speed low - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading

My dopod U1000 processor speed is working at only 312Mhz. Its only half the rated speed of the processor. how can i set it to full speed? or its just at half speed when the device is at idle state when battery plugin shows processor speed? I can feel the screen generates very slowly. icons dont appear all at the same time when a window is opened. Please help. thanks.

How do you know it's running at 312Mhz?

I've read here that a certain tool (don't remember the name) incorrectly reports the speed at 312 when in fact the CPU is running full-speed. Supposedly this is confirmed on the web site for that tool. What are you using?

i believe he is using battery status and a old version. update to latest version and it should show correctly. i believe the old ones didnt want to report over 312mhz

Battery Status 0.05
Hi, thank you for your reply. Yes, im using an older version of batterystatus and its reporting 312 mhz. Where can get the new version? is there any version that can make the processor go faster? its a little slow when playing movies and listening to music gets affected when us send messages. thanks.

You can get the latest version here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=270751
However, My display still shows a CPU speed of 312 MHz using the latest version. Does anybody have different results?

overclocked to 474 mhz

ok this is wierd...i usually check my clock speed with TCPMP, and at first when i got this device, it said 400 like its supposed to, now i installed batterystatus( just for the battery status, not overclocking) and left it alone...i checked my clock speed, and it says its at 474 MHZ!!!! anyone else notice this?

What version of batterystatus?
I've try a weeks ago, and suppoprt for overclock was disabled (and can't actiovate) cause batterystatus dosn't support the TyTN processor.
Regards.

agreed, its not supposed to support it, the option is also disabled, but it automatically does it, batterystatus shows its clocked at 400mhz, but tcpmp shows 474...im using batterystatusExt 1.04 beta

Same version i tested before.... so TCPMP perhaps gives a bad Mhz value.
Think the TyTN processor can change the clock frecuency when has more work to do, so probably TCPMP gives the higest value for TyTN (i'm not sure in this).
as i know, no overclock soft for Hermes is working today.
PD: Coming from Wizard too, and love baterystatus...very ussefull soft.
yeah that is possible...too bad batterystatus doesn't give exact percentage of battery instead it does the 10% increments
That's actually the case with all battery indicator software for the Hermes.

yeah i know =( hopefully there will be a solution to this madness
in the meantime... heres an update on the overclock situation...i left my device on standby and idle for 30 min, and now its clocked at 100 mhz, i had no idea that the cpu fluctuates its clock speed depending on how heavily the cpu is being used...very impressive
hmm I think if you want to be sure, if CPU is really overclocked you must do some benchmarks, and compare results...
Yeah can you do some benchmarks with say TCPMP or even SKTools to verify there is actually a difference. XCPUScalar would also report the higher MHz speed but in actuality there was no difference.
installed Batterystatus. did benchmark with Sk Tools. Benchmark is the same

are we really running at 624mhz

a quick question. after installing battery status. i notice it also shows the cpu status. currently i am running PK's excellent PK1 rom. the information i get is:
cpu = 312 mhz
battery = between 190mA to 700mA depending on what i turn on.
is this normal??
i thought we are running a 624 mhz rite? so why is it 312 mhz (or half of what the cpu speed)?
thanks for your help!!
It's a known bug in batterystatus, check their website and it's mentioned in the faq.
LOL 312 * 2 = 624 Mhz !!!
it's a dual Core CPU ????

Battery status has a maximum of showing the CPU speed and thats at 312 MHz and when u install it on devices greater then 312 MHz then it will show just 312 MHz !!!! it sfault of the software u are using !!!
ha.i c. thanks for the update. for a moment.. i was raking my mind what happend to the other 312 mhz too.
another comment.. what is the so called "normal" battery consumption? as mentioned, i am running PK's excellent PK1 rom, bluetooth 100% of the time. i use it like a phone.. a little bit of notes writing.. i am getting between 200 - 500 mA. is that normal?

"Normal" is a broad term here. It depends most on the brightness of the LCD and what hw modules you have switched on and used. It also depends on the radio ROM, some of them increase power usage quite dramatically, there are fixes available in PK2 thread if you suspect it's affecting you, although I don't think so at 200mA.
Normal for ME - ie 80% brightness, GPS on, GPRS on, GSM on, GPS software running and reading maps from HD I would expect something floating around 750-1100mA.
With max brightness the Ameo will discharge even when connected to a weak USB power, like some low-amperage car adapters. It did happen to me once.
When you say you have usage of around 200-500mA it means it's rather low, probably most modules inactive (GPS, WiFi, 3G, BT etc.) and brightness in a decent range.
Unfortunately our Athena is rather energy-hungry in real life use. I have to charge her nightly and even sometimes I'm forced to charge from car/laptop when having longer support sessions on RDP+WiFi/3G.
Then again it's just physics and arithmetics, you can't expect such a monster of a screen to run on 1mA. Not as long as you want it lit.

no actually it's a fault as above person said , ip posted this question in thier thread on this board and got a reply look around their thread as i can't recall the post number at moment.
but I know that it reports 100% correct on my HTC Hermes ( Vario II ) and my HTC Universal ( Mda Pro ) as well as even my really old HTC BlueAngel ( M2000 )
so it's more likely just not supporting the newer chip

Archos Gen8 Froyo Source Code released!!

For Archos 101/70 etc
here is the link now lets get to work
http://www.archos.com/support/download/software/sources/gen8-gpl-froyo.tgz
Custom ROMs like HTC Sense builds and Motoblur and Cyanogenmod should be more straightforward now.
Sent from my Ideos S7 using XDA App
Root access and custom recovery are steps 1 and 2. Then that can happen. Hopefully Root isn't far away.
Fingers crossed because the froyo release archos delivered was a BIG disappointment for many..
Waiting for root and recovery.
Then, we can flash custom rom and kernel to the Archos tablet.
Really disappointed on the speed. At the beginning, I think 1G cpu should be really fast .... but now @ froyo, the speed is really slower than my Nexus one (very very much slower...)
Especially when doing multiple web-page browsing and heavy network loading, my Archos 70 lag lag lag all the time....
Hope Archos will release a fix that optimize the power of the machine very soon.

While you are correct, I think the reason is not only limited to 800Mhz.
I set my Nexus One to 806Mhz and still find out the response and speed are much higher than my Archos 70 running at full speed (setcpu to 1000Mhz)
There must be something wrong in the firmware and the wifi driver that is not optimized such that the machine looks generally much much slower than any other android systems running at the same frequency.
Yes, 2.2.1 on Archos 70 s***s
+1
My Milestone downclocked to 250 mhz is faster than my Archos 70 at 800 or 1000 mhz....
Root access will complete the froyo update

Yeah but your nexus one also has double the memory, and it seems that the JIT doesnt work the same on the Archos 2.2 build , quadrant and linpack scores are pretty much the same from 2.1 to 2.2, where as on every phone 2.2 double or sometimes triple the linpack scores.

The problem with Archos 70 is the screen size and less RAM
The nexus one has a much smaller resolution for the CPU to draw while it has double the amount of RAM

oh my, i didn't know the N1 packed that many pixels...
sorry about the bad inform.
Then it's the CPU: Cortex A8 vs Snapdragon
and : 256MB vs 512MB of ram
but since both CPU clocked at 1GHz, most likely it's the ram that's not sufficient.
What would help is the ability to disable Multitask in apps except selective ones by user.
I guess Apple was RIGHT when they choose to not implement MULTITASK in the earlier iPhones. These also have limited RAM, only 128MB... leaving only 40MB after iOS boot up.
I'd be happy with my Archos with minimum Multitasking. Just music apps get multitask.
(I use Auto Memory Manager to auto kill apps when my memory hits certain level)
Guys, is it possible to speed up the tablet? The new rom works good, but sometimes it hangs a lot.. So is it possible too disable memory-eating processes??

Well You can use a task killer app to keep memory clear if you want. There are also several threads on Archosfans.com's forums about using z4root (only temp root at the moment) and the SetCPU to speed up the CPU to 1Ghz, and raise the min. clock value too.
I have mine on min. 800 and max. 1000 Mhz ... except when screen is off. Feels quite smooth, though when memory is full, it still gets a bit laggy.
I read somewhere that they have JIT disabled too.... dont quote me, but I read it from a thread that referenced another thread that said this other guy knew it was disabled...
I did read it somewhere, but I don't know if its true.
If the build.prop is any indication then it is not enabled. There is no command there to enable JIT like is on my other devices that have 2.2.

Interesting. If JIT is disable, then we're loosing a lot of performance just because of that. That and the under clocked 800 is a double kill.
Archos is rushing to put our a patch soon from what I've heard. The patch is suppose to include Flash and the JIT enabled. If this is the case, then the patch will do wonders for performance.

This will be nice if true. I just hope they don't rush like they did with the first 2.2. I would rather wait a little bit to have more things working correctly.
If JIT was disabled on this build it would explain a lot. I had my A70 with 1.0.84 for day or two and it worked "faster" than with this froyo update. I'm no expert but... Archos was under lot of pressure to deliver 2.2 on Gen8 so they probably rushed it. I was gonna wait for better firmware of 2.2 but I didn't want to install all apps and then reinstall from scratch on 2.2. They are making these firmwares every 2-4 weeks so soon we will probably see another update. cajl, charbax any news on this?

[Q] Is Overclocking Galaxy s2 to 1.5 ghz Safe ?

Hi im thinking of doing a overclock to 1.5 ghz is it safe for the processor and the battery life witch already sucks. has anyone on here whos done it using setcpu and the rom had any problems after doing so ? and how much faster is 1.5 ghz compared to 1.2 ghz on the galaxy s2 ? and is it safe in general for the hardware of the phone will the phone get hotter or have over heating problems ? also what should my settings be for minimum maximum and the voltages ?
Of course oc is going to make ur battery life a lot worse.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
I haven' used Setcpu in a while but I believe it's got a feature to stress test the settings to see if it can handle it. Generally the worst that happens is it'll crash. So long as it doesn't get hot. Heat=death for electronics :')
I'm using tegrak (from market) to overclock to 1.4. I found 1.5 was too unstable. Noticeable difference between 1.2 & 1.4 is almost none. Also voltage increase of 50mv was needed to gain stability. There is not much point of overclocking the device IMO unless like me u just get some satisfaction out of knowing its running faster!

Well it's not safe, that I can say. Nothing is safe when you don't know what other things are changing with the clock rate. But still you could do that. You just have to make sure that the temperature is within limit, it will be definitely high, but make sure it's not that high.
And upping the clock rate to 1.5 GHz won't drain any extra battery than 1.2 GHz.

I tried the overclocking and each phone is different, increase then test, there are many benchmarking apps out there, I was stable at 1.4, my kernel does not include 1.5 GHz, and irregardless of what people may say, running the phone at higher clock speeds consistently DOES drain the battery more than 1.2GHz, unless you have found a way to manipulate the laws of physics. I don't see how one can fathom the thought that you can get a faster CPU at absolutely no cost.
Many people think when the CPU running faster means you complete tasks faster, hence 1.5 would complete a task faster than 1.2 and hence save battery, but I believe we use this phone as more than a calculator, so when you are performing a task that causes the CPU to run at 1.5 for a period of time e.g playing a game, browsing or whatever you do with your phone, then the CPU has to draw more power to keep the frequency at 1.5 as compared to the CPU running at 1.2
All in all, I dialed back because I was doing fine without it and I did not need it, other people may need it, and I wasn't gaining anything. to answer your question directly, it all depends on what you do with your phone, I'm not a huge gamer or anything and the 1.2GHz has proven to be more than enough for me to have a very pleasant experience using this device
Using it occasionally is safe, unless you stress your mobile at 1.5+ ghz for more than an hour or so.
The cpu governor will only make use of higher frequencies when there is a need, so mostly you will see your mobile idling at 200 mhz.

Not necessarily a lot worse. It depends on how you are using your phone, and what is causing it to run fast. If overclocking allows the phone to spend longer in deep sleep state, your battery will win. If its games, and by OC you achieve a higher frame rate, then the phone is doing more work, and this will be reflected in the battery life going down.
Most of the time, screen on is going to dominate. If you are a low screen-on user, I guess there is more chance for a higher max_cpu to be beneficial (it won't be used unless there is a task that requires it). More accurately, it helps some of the time, so the net result is not always obvious to predict.
How about undervolting?
Any danger in doing so- other than crashing when voltage is too low?
Before over clocking it might be worth downloading cpuspy from the market and seeing what time you spend in each speed.
Chances are most of the time you won't even hit 1.2 so might not have anything to gain by over clocking.
Then again I dont know how you use your device but I do know I was surprised when I found out.

I've played with the SuperSonic version of this phone (which has a 1.5Ghz core) and the results from photos/video are much better, I'm pretty sure the cameras are exactly the same but the SuperSonic benefits from the higher CPU.
I think it would be cool if somebody could write an app that states
IF user opens Camera application voltage + clock speed is increased to allow stable 1.5GHz speed
WHEN user closes camera application overclock turns off.
Thoughts?
You have a smartphone! Not a pc!
I didnt see any advantage if you oc to 1.5
Btw In normal use your phone keep in 200mhz not 1.2.
I think i only hit 1.2 two or 3 times for 3 seconds in a full battery cycle.

oc dosnt make sense ,there no noticeable diff,an yes very few times i hit 1.2 mostly its on 800 or few times on 1000....using a device with 1.5ghz proccesor an oc a device to 1.5 ghz which has 1ghz processor is very diff in nature....
Fair enough.
Well I wouldn't mind an app that mazes out at 1.2GHz with camera app open, as it can lag when shooting HD.
oc upto 1.4 ghz is fair enough, anything more than that is a waste. though you cant find any visible difference between 1,1.2 and 1.4 it does helps in maintaining smoothness on some situations.
yes very true i had oc my sgs1 at 1.2ghz and sgs2 at 1.4ghz but frankly i dint see the diff so after few days use i turnd to orignal settings....but many use oc an phone works fine,but depends on personel use......an yes as bala_gammer says its fine on 1.4ghz......cheeeerz

Improve the standby time of op2 , for rooted phones.

after waiting impatiently for the arrival of your op2 , many are disappointed with the low battery standby....specially if you are using LTE.
issues :
1) even having such a large battery, getting poor battery life.
2) even if the phone is idle, battery drains :crying:
so after having it for almost 2 weeks, i have learned most of the cpu tuner and battery saving apps wont work with op2, its not because of software, basically snapdragon 810's big little architecture is new and apps in the market are not compatible with this octacore new chipset.
and because of very less manufacturers are using this SOC as we now know why... and they were right... it heats up a lot!!! so app developers have not concentrated an specific app for this SOC.
so after lots of mix and matches, finally have come up with a stable solution as follows :
a) your phone should be rooted.
b) install 3c cpu manager from playstore.
c) open minimum 6 apps in background maximum the better.
( remember if no apps are running in background then cpu manager will show only maximum 1.555 ghz. max frequency and 384 mhz low frequency single setup only and big little architecture dual setup wont be shown ie: 810 has 4 cores running @ 1.555 ghz max and other 4 cores @ 1.76 ghz max. and both setups at 384 mhz minimum. )
d) open cpu manager, there should be 2 different setups, if not then open more apps in background, simply change the governor to ON-DEMAND, from interactive and set it on and reboot, as i have noticed with interactive governor even during standby, processor does not stays idle at lower frequencies.
after changing the governor, i have noticed that during standby cpu frequencies are in idle or at the lowest. which highly improvises the battery standby life and haven't noticed any performance degradation.
you can even limit the higher cores frequencies from 1.76 ghz to 1.55 ghz... improving up-to some limit of over heating issues and better standby time.
these are just the findings i discovered with my phone, so don't blame me if anything goes wrong, do it at your own risk.

This has nothing to do with apps, just poor drivers on the kernel side, scheduler isn't properly coded for this SoC, and the fact that there is no dynamic hotplugging options available without causing the phone to reboot under certain circumstances doesn't benefit us any. Check out some of the custom kernels, as they may increase your idle battery life, on my own kernel I saw .5% drain per hour max. For reference I saw about 20 hours idle and sitting at 89% on my kernel.

i really appreciate your findings with the kernel, but my post is intended for people like me who does not wants to mess up with a stock kernel, so that future OTA updates can be patched without much hassle.
as you see, oxygen os is quite new and incomplete when compared with other's have to offer. so i expect lots of future updates immediately by the OP to improve and stabilize the OS.
I am giving snapdragon battery guru a try, it's for Qualcomm processors. But I'm not very experienced in this stuff. I think it has helped but if someone with more experience wants to give it a try. Maybe they can shed some new light on this subject.
This is the result with on-demand governor settings when phone is idle. with stock kernel and stock frequencies.

i really appreciate your findings with the kernel, but my post is intended for people like me who does not wants to mess up with a stock kernel, so that future OTA updates can be patched without much hassle.
as you see, oxygen os is quite new and incomplete when compared with other's have to offer. so i expect lots of future updates immediately by the OP to improve and stabilize the OS.

Being rooted alone will prevent OTA updates. You have to flash the full stock ROM when there's an update anyway which would overwrite the kernel.
