Woot woot. And this does have to do with development Now for some undervolting and overclocking!

Think I've seen the asus transformer to 1.5 ghz. Thats tegra 2 also.

I'm more interested in undervolting, and other tweaks, in order to keep performance at same clock speed.
However, once in Webtop mode, I'll take any overclocking and nitro my phone can withstand for relatively longer, continuous sessions.
Before we bust a nut, is it confirmed the package includes kernel source ?

It seems counter-intuitive, but, I swear that my E4G got better battery life when overclocked. Sure, it wasn't on the performance governer to do that...but I've beared it out many times.
Race to wait man...the sooner a CPU is finished with something the sooner it can get to idle.
edit: the more I think about it I think it's only fair to admit that I only compared stock kernel to havs/UV kernels when oc'd....
Yes the faster it gets to idle... but theres also diminishing returns. The faster you push the processor the more energy it needs to reach that speed.
(Not saying your wrong, never really tried it)
How about undervolting while overclocking?

1136-1152mHz was perfect....but if I tried 1190 it would drain far faster than usual. most of it burnt up as heat, I felt it. But 1136-1152 was perfect. I tried underclocking for battery gains...it still ran perfectly usable as low as 528 or 548 or whatever it was....but I never got the kind of gains I thought I would, in fact, I never noticed considerable gains in battery life, even that low for a while....
As we all know for some peculiar reason not all smartphones are the same, even of the same make model batch, etc etc etc....so YMMV, a lot, but, OC'd to 1152 running CM7, smart ass governor, (HAV/uv kernel) (with the screen-on lowest freq being whatever was the first above 245...345?) I got far better battery life than stock...once again, not fair compared to mere stock, but, even underclocked I didn't see noticeable returns....
Why the g2x had SO MUCH better benchmark scores now before anyone says I'm *****ing know that I'm not I'm just asking why 2 phones with the same processors have such diff scores the photon NEVER goes over 60 fps in quadrant but the g2x gets like 100+ and out had 1080p video recording like wtf was motorola thinking sprints best motorola phone is average now a data now I'm just asking why cause that's really annoying but honestly this is just a question not *****ing again
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
because moto blur takes up more processing power ALSO the the photon has a 1ghz dual core and teh e4gt has a 1.2 ghz dual core. same ram i believe... but honestly until internet speeds are crazy increaded and battery life is maximized idc they all run around the same speed imo.
I think the G2X uses a different cpu/gpu.

One of the things that throws of the result is the nonstandard resolution of the Photon. This odd screen size requires scaling be used to run most benchmarks full screen. On an unscaled Smartbench run the scores are much higher than scaled and are fairly close to the GSII NVidia.

There are three different CPU's used in the GSII (NVidia, Samsung, Qualcomm). The benchmarks vary with the Qualcomm being the bottom of the list.

I would not to much faith on benchmarks. Sure their cool to see. But in the end, through user interaction, screen scrolls, etc. It's all relative. This phone is a beast, it will still be for another year when it's replaced by the Galaxy S III and it will laugh at the iPhone 5.

Yeah but if you used quadrant pro and saw the score broken down you'd understand that it is just artificially inflated. There are multiple tweaks that boost quadrant benchmarks that do nothing noticeable otherwise.

People put way too much merit into benchmarks. Does your phone run smoothly and allow you to multi task everything you need to? If so, I think your phone is passing the human benchmark.

the only difference is the CPU stepping, a smidge bigger battery (which will last the same time for the bigger screen), a bigger screen.
Although the CPU is a S2 there really is no difference in the two. GPS does go out on some Thunderbolt's. CM10.1 is JB; I and a couple
more devs are working on it right now, though CM9 isn't even fully working. which is ICS. If you have S-OFF AND full root then you will
have great fun with it. The Thunderbolt won't disappoint... I have played with both and they are just as fast... I say go for it!
oh with dual 3G radios you cannot go wrong :b
Also what do u think about the rezound I can get one of those for under 130$ is it better ?

even over-clocked and using it for constant radio (BT) streaming it never got warm on me.
I was running ICS Bliss on it... which isn't released yet but hey....
I had the bolt and it never ran hot unless I was charging it and running tethering at the same time. if the phone was running hot all the time you either had the governor set to performance or you had a bad battery. I have the rezound now and loads better over the bolt. so get that over the bolt you won't be sorry. the only thing the bolt had over the rezoind was it was so easy to unlock and get s off. even with the latest boot loader update the bolt got its still easier. with the resound to get s off you have to do the wire trick.
you can look on swappa for phones as many people buys them on there.

I had a thunderbolt before getting a S3 and there are times I miss the bolt. I had great luck with each ROM (SOAB, Thunder Shed, and Santod's ICS Eternity. Heck, I would have loved trying his new Bliss ROM. If you decide you want a bolt and I can figure out how to clear mine I can sell you it with an OEM and Rezound battery, a couple of cases (including a PowerSkin case) for $100. I have been hanging on to it in case a developer needed it, so no worries if you would prefer the Rezound.
