Overclocking the atom exec... - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development

Hey guys, i was juts curious as to what the safest overclock speed is for the atom exec? And safest underclocking speed as well, before it dies on you and cant start up again. Thanks, guys in advance.

It depends on which program you use to overclock. I think on the atom the highest is around the 620MHz. Not sure about the lower end. Never seen anyone that would want to make their device slower Its like a trial and error procedure. Keep playing with it until you the find the appropriate setting.

Good point, I will be using the ImmierSoft XCPUScalar v3.03 to overclock this device. Their website states 720mhz, however I think thats a little too far fetched, I emailed them but havent received an answer yet... would anybody happen to know about this program and its capabilities for the atom exec?
Also, I was wondering about downclocking the device to save on battery power... does that not work? Would it not last longer if it were downclocked to say 300mhz? or 280? Would it not last twice as long? Just a thought, thanks again guys

yes u can overclock your atom to 624 mhz easily . nad underrclock to about 216 with no problem . in rest all mhz there may be some flickering . otherwise no problem . i have overclocked mine to 724 with anti flickering on . and its working gr8 except for battery . it exhausts very fast .

Any Qualcomm utility to overclock ?

Any way to overclock this cpu ? i tried using scaler 2007 but it crashes, even batterystatus doesnt work, the battery is already crap, but i'd take performance over battery any time.
ok ... here the best answer!
no overclocking tool avaliable! no developer have the right cpu commandos in the moment. qualcomm use a ARM9, but this is not enough infos.possible in the future ... now i doesnt see any way to get a tool in the next months!
Any updates?
Any Updates????
i think trying overclock a high integrated cpu like Ms7200 is very bad idea
What about underclock? My Touch eats battery like cheap Atom, and I would satisfied with 200MHz most of the time - for basic phone functions.

overclocking a wizard?

is it safe to overclock a Pocket PC??
i downloaded XCPUScalar 3.03 and i want to know what could happen bad. is it possible to burn the CPU or to die slowly in time??
No problems, just go alittle at a time and test it. If you start having problems then back it down to the last speed that was reliable.
This is a great overclock program, you can find more about it on XDA.
http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_batterystatus_xda_neo_wm5_im_cs.htm
whatever overclocking program u decide to go with make sure it has a handy temp guage! overclocking does have its overheating drawbacks. I have my wiz doin @ 247 and running a nice 87.2 deg F. with heavy usage it can jump to 98-99.? I have ran stable faster, however I know brain cells start frying around 104! so to each his own. have fun
thx for the tip. i will try to find one with temp gauge

Second vote for plusplus. Lots of features on there as well as CPU scaling. Try it and you'll never look back.
I did try batterystatus plusplus...but there is a problem, the temp gauge and consumption gauge it's not refreshing
there is a refresh option .... u can change the update speed i think it defaults at like 30 sec. so it would look as though no refresh. hope it helps
I just flashed CR86 HD myself and tried using Homescreen++ with it. The touchflo will boot any other today plugins I select, including hs++. I tried using the hs++ task manager as well, but it stops, along with the OC I'd imagine, as soon as touchflo starts.
If I have to choose, I pick hs++.
I've been running @ 260 for over a year now, no problems yet.
I camp a lot so I go the other way. I keep my wizard consistently UNDER clocked as it drastically increases battery life.
Thats why hs++ is so good.
You can use the option to scale bettwen a downclock and a overclock.
so when its necessary your device overclock, but if its in standbye its downgrade the clock.
Doing this you hardly see a incresse of battery drain.
I use my device with batterystatus and now HS++ over then 3 years and i never have any problem.
always use with clock bettewen 143mhz and 273 mhz
hello , i also have a i-mate k-jam , and i want to overclock it . i want a program that chooses automatic the cpu speed between 140-260 for example . what program do you recomend ? i already have the 2.26 rom and wm 6.1 and it's worcking preety good . ( i don't want to change the wm , i want just the over/underclock program) thanks
using HS++ ive had my Wizard overclocked to 276mhz for over 2 years....never had a problem
Hs++ is coooooool! I tried it now and my wizard's performance is fantastic! Yeeeeeee! Im so happy!
Hi to All!
I've Installed HS++ (ver. 1.06.349 build 0349 ) and i have two problems:
1 - For use it, i must disable TouchFLO, can they work together ?? if yes, how can i do this?
2 - in OMAP menù, when i click the "get" button for overclock, the phone freeze.
EDIT:
I've installed SecondToday 0.42, and now i can load TouchFLO and HS++ together (and when i enable overclock it works!!!)
but, i always need SecondToday now? or there are other methods?
(sorry for my bad English )
AT Last: I agree with You, HS++ is Great and also SecondToday is Great
Thank You All!
299MHz
I've overclocked to 299MHz with batterystatus without any problems for at least 2 years. of course battery life is significantly shorter, but i can live with it. i use scaling when on the road to preserve power, but don't see much difference between 195MHz and underclocked to 99MHz. Tried 312MHz, but my wizard used to freeze after some time (few hours usualy)
hey
hey i recently got the qtek 9100 (3 days ago) , this is my 1st windows mobile toy i ever had. i love it , its pretty nice, i just did hard spl, which worked great i can now install whatever i want. i installed home ++ too , and in 1% cpu load it does 96 F. should i be worried? it`s overclocked at 247 mhz. should i turn it off , and just quit overclocking? truth is i love how it moves now, it was a bit lazy befroe overclocking. waitin` for a reply , thanks alot !
I got question : I have wm6.5, installed hs++ and don't know how to get to overclocking menu ? I can't find it ? where it is ? or does it don't work with wm6.5 ?

Using OMAPClock.exe for Prophet?!

HI,
does anyone uses OMAPClock.exe for Overclocking?
What is the latest version and on which rate does the prophet runs fast but stable?
CHeers,
i don't know about last version but i had the 0.2 version, maybe it's old one, but maximum i could increase my processor for 264 mhz not more, but realy i don't know if it's useful or not, cause i didn't see differance. what about other users?
OMAP ON Prophet
I do but after you turn off the device or reboot the device you have to execute the app again the only solution is to put it in the startup file. I used it on my Jasjamin and i use it at 209 MHZ, you can put more but you might experience reboot or app failure.
for alternatif you can use batterystatus, more info on mainscreen and can overclock omap too, i try till 299mhz(sometimes), and works good, you can setting for auto overclock at wakeup
can download here http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_batterystatus_xda_neo_wm5_im_cs.htm#DownloadBeta

Be carefull
Remember ppl overclocking, reduces main processor life, if you use it you might diminish the life of your device, take care, you do this at your own risk.

1. yes, it will be a bit too harsh for the processor,
2. it does consume more power,
3. it will freezes on some apps,
4. over over-clocking (over 264Mhz) may brick the device,
5. for fun ....

PLEASE TRY IT FOR FUN ONLY~~~~ ( tested with Speed King 2 Lite new version.)
INSTALL AND SOFT RESET.
THE DEVICE WILL RUN IN 264mHZ.....
UNINSTALL IF YOU WISH..

i keep my prophet overclocked at 286mhz with batterystatus for a year now.
i never had any unstability problems. these only occur only if using speed above 286mhz, ex:293.
At 286 works very nice, i'm so used with this speed that I'll never downclock my device
cheers
Good app and thanx for all info
Nice app....i had my mpv 600 sitting for a while now, and i have use it now with new rom and it's working fine at 264mhz

Hi dioxda2,
So the app will not be affcted from soft resets and the device will away run with 264 MHz? Could you please post a link to the cab?

1. below 264 is fine,
2. want to try higher? I had tested. Prophet bricks!!!!
3. use @ your own risk, default clock is 264
4. want to change the clock lower? run omap_OverClock from the startmenu/programs folder,
5. it will keep in 264 even after softreset,
6. it will keep in 264 even after power on,
7. use wakeapp to clean the notice service if neccessary (if popup occurs after uninstall),
8. or hard-reset to clean if you wish.

DON'T just look @ the digits,
dare you try this Omap.exe with higher than 264?
I did push too much and a result of bright screen eternally......
Batt. status is not SAME as omap.

I used Battery status for about 2 years but I also notice significant difference between battery status and Omap.exe - about 15 MHz - > The version of Omap that I have is showing less than battery status and I think the correct value was shown by battery status

Yes my friend When I try 312 mhz phone seem ok but when you try open something it is lock. I am trying this Qtek s200 G4. 299 mhz working very stable. Overclocking could be changeable at same systems. İt depends on cpu manufacturing time etc etc.

What app are you using to over clock with ?
I have some XP with Home Screen Plus Plus(used to be Bat.Status)the only Problem I had, was that you cannot turn it on at the same time with Manila 2D, because it works as a today plugin and Manila turns everything off. Does OMAPClock.exe work like this?

OMAPClock is different its a seperate aplication not a today screen plugin like bat.Status so yes it will work with Manila 2D
The most I gotten was 276 now am using 240 is stable and no problems over that and and my Device hangs I think its a Rom thing on other roms I can go up to 299 lol but on WM 6.5 the most I tryed is 240 anybody use WM 6.5 whats the limit ur Device can take then when u were using WM 6.0 and 6.1?

HTC Hero Overclocking

Is it possible to overclock the HTC Hero's processor to past 528 mhZ? I've heard that it is slightly sluggish and i thought if it is possible, then this might solve the issue
First of all, its sluggish, when many applications an widgets run at the same time, thats ok for a MOBILE PHONE, Mobile phones do not have to be multitasking pros.
But yeah, i asked this myself too yesterday and googled about that, but found no real answer.
So, if theres a way to overclock the Magic's or Dream's CPU it should also be possible for the HERO! MY Hero in a few days in germany
the processor maxes out a 528
if u get it past that ur just damaging it...
just like overclocking a computer
the higher u go the more cooler power u need
mobile phones are not cooling geniuses lol
That doesnt exclude the possibility to overclock a mobile cpu, many people overclocked their HTC Herald CPU, like me from 198MHZ to 250MHZ, and it was perfekt.

But if I remember correctly, just like the Dream/Magic, the Hero CPU runs the same MSM7200a proc. as the Dream/Magic which maxes out at 528Mhz. However, HTC has, for whatever the reason, underclocked them. It runs at 328Mhz max typically on the Dream (& i'm assuming this is the same on Magic).
We Dream/Magic users aren't really overclocking the CPU as much as just clocking it. I forget the exact parameter but in the beginning we just used a terminal command to set the cpu_scaling_freq (or something like that) to the max 528Mhz. Once root is gained on the Hero this should be easily accomplished there from the terminal or an app as well.

The Herald just as my old Hermes ran OMAP processors, pretty easily tweaked.
No one has as of yet discovered a way to overclock a Qualcomm , and they have been round a good year or 2 now.
p.s.. Processors dont max out as such, they just overheat and burn!!!
Fact is, that before trying to do stuff like this you first need to gain root on the Hero.
And indeed like said before: The G1/Magic _underclock_ their CPU to save battery. Only in a few situations will it do it's job at 528mhz, otherwise it's 320-something mhz.
So when a G1/Magic user is telling they 'overclocked' their CPU, they just removed the underclock and it's running at the normal 528mhz for the MS7200.
Really _over_clocking it, by running it at like 650mhz or higher, I didn't see before.
PS: The slugginess is more a RAM and disk i/o thing than directly cpu-related.
thanks for all the info guys. so should i be worried about getting the phone, or do u think it won't be that bad?
No you shouldnt, i am waiting too for my hero to arrive. So can anyone tell, what it means to "root" android? why should i root my hero when i have it and what does it affect? thanks in advice.

Thank you, now i understand. So how can we set the clockspeed to 528mhz permanentely?

First off, we don't know if it's even needed. Maybe it's running on 528mhz already.
Second: You can't. Until the Hero is rooted nothing like this is possible, so getting 'root' access if first step in ANY kind of tweaking.
Ok, thanks. so lets wait till we hold our heroes in our hands to see at what speed it runs and hopefully be able to root the phone.
Have been using my Hero for a few days now - and don't really notice any speed issues that concern me.
Seconded.
I have a Hero and have for a couple of days on Orange, and have no qualms about the speed whatsoever.
HTC say the processor dynamically clocks up to the maximum 528MHz when needed, so unless you want to push it out of spec (if its even possible) - there's no need to set the clock. Leave it be
thats sounds reasuring, thank u for letting me know
to be honest i just bought mine yesterday
and its not terribly slow
ive read bout it and be careful we are talking bout reviewers and most review websites dont know a lot bout half of what the say
slow no
unresponsive no
a bit laggy yes
this phone is brilliant
and is quite speedy considering how much things you got on desktop
for anyone worried about the slow speed of the Hero, the firmware update fixes this. its soooooooooo much faster.
Bump, what spped is hero running on? I have mcr 3.1 installed and since we have root now............
AFAIK, the Hero runs at 528MHz when in use, but underclocks to ~300 when not in use (ie. screen off etc.) Really, in MCR3.1, you shouldn't be needing to overclock- it really flies. If not, did you do a wipe before install?
If not, I strongly recommend you do (back up data first!), as it made mine a lot faster and was worth the hassle!

[Q] Set CPU - How to overclock my SGA?

Hey guys,
I have just installed OmegaRom by Team Cooper and what a Rom it is!!! Amazing is an understatement.
Okay so with there new Rom v2, it has an OC kernal built in and it does work...BUT I need to know how to OC the thing safely and squeezing as much performance as possible!
I have it at 825 and min 806 mhz, scaler is performance.
What settings would you pro's recommened?
Thanks!
Edit 1- I am using SetCPU to OC.
"overclock" and "safe" cannot be use in the same sentence, it just wrong.
theres no safe overclocking. moreover each and every device is unique even for the same model.
what is working with others doesnt guarantee it'll works with yours.

What I meant was a stable OC that may work with my phone... I OC computers too so I know the risk's involved. So what I was asking was what OC's worked with peoples phones so I could get a rough idea on how to govern my cpu and OC it without totally messing it up.

i hope u are aware of the ill effects of OCing.....battery takes a real beating....well i have done it upto 886 mhz....many others have done it upto 1ghz mark...but i personally do not recommend...
CPU Tuner
I try CPU Tuner, is similar ti setCPU but is free whit THE END 3.0 custom ROM and use the 864-254 mhz for screen on and 480-122 for screen off whitout problems, previously I use 904 mhz, but sometime it freeze...

I have OCed it to 902 mhz..
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Thanks for the comments guys... Gives me a rough estimate on its limits.
So far I have been running 844mhz performance for a while, since I created this thread and the battery has remained at 82%!
I have benched using AnTuTu twice and have excellent read and write speeds, compared to other benchies I have seen, OmegaRom is the best Rom I have ever used!
Cheers,
i tried cpufrills and its the best for me
I don't Think U mustuse over clocking,even my setting was min245 max 902,the effect just draining more battery,and if using to much can damaging ur prosessor
I know you might think what I'm going to write is unnecessary and going to contradict with your believes here. but I'm going say it anyway.
If you are going to use your device for a long time then I would suggest not to overclock too much. You'll know when something will go wrong with your over-clocking. Your SGA would start rebooting randomly. Heating up would be excessively common once you start overclocking, using your SGA while it's charging. Over clocking will definitely reduce your processor life span. People who do can over clock their device to get the max out of their device and know they're going to change the device in sometime later anyway.

Don't worry! Like I said, I have experience O/C'ing processors etc and I know how bad the effects can be! I am not going for a massive overclock at all. Just a tiny bump in the speed. At the moment, I am running 825mhz and already the speed has improved dramatically. I may go a little further but 902mhz is a bit mental for my liking.
