I just switched over to the atrix from the infuse.. I have it unlocked and rooted.. Wanting to oc but not fully understanding so I'm taking it slow lol.. But i was wondering. How does the power of the 'FIRST' dual core stack up to compared to todays dual core phones?? Is this still a good phone (Since I just got it) and will it continue to be a good phone?
With a custom kernel, most benchmarks are placing it right under or even with SGSII... not bad considering that phone comes stock with 1.5 GHz dual core.
1.2 you mean?

here's the thing for me, though: you're installing custom kernels and doing this and that to a phone to get it to perform at max capability.
but, to me, that's slightly artificial considering that if you did the same to another phone, then that phone's benchmarks would also be increased, therefore not really providing any gain for the original device.
that's how I currently see it. is that... correct? or... am I not understanding something...?

I'm not running a OC kernel, but Faux's enhanced kernel @ 1 GHz. The main thing was getting rid of motoblur, and freeing up the ram. My benchmarks aren't as fast as the SGSII, but they aren't miles behind either.... not bad considering it's half a year older. I happen to like Nivida's technology too, but that's just a personal preference.

That's correct. Right now, though, the difference is negligible. So negligible that only benchmarks will show the real difference. Now, there's several games that will work only on the Tegra platform because the other CPUs don't have the same capabilities in the graphics department.... though it's not like everyone writes games based on these settings or even optimize other games for them.

Ahem... Optimus 2X claims the first prize
Anyway I don't have an Atrix 4G, I have an Optimus 2x, same CPU. In my opinion the Tegra seems on-par with the Galaxy S2.
I'm not sure if there is a CM7 for the Atrix, but on my Optimus it is at least 2x faster than the stock rom, benchmarks reflect that too.
SunSpider is a benchmark which basically tests various web rendering tasks and gives a total score at the end
On MIUI / 1.5GHZ the Galaxy S2 scored 1600 or so. On 1GHZ, my Tegra 2 scores 1800! A lot of it appears to be down to software though, rather than raw performance, for reference, an iPhone 4 using Safari gets 4700, an Acer Liquid Metal Black which has some sort of 800MHZ snapdragon (I think?) CPU gets 3800.
The iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.1 got 16,000 or some stupid figure, well below 10,000 on iOS 5 though. In short, I guess what I'm saying is it's more down to your software setup than the hardware, obviously any phone is going to run like crap on a stock rom with 100,000 facebook and twitter apps.
First I am aware that overclocking is not "safe" and all that kind of stuff
However for some reason I am unable to OC my SGS2 and run the phone on a steady way.
I have tried several ROMs (stock and custom) with different kernels and OCing apps with no avail.
I am not even able to run at 1.4Ghz or 1.6Ghz without having my phone reboot or hard lock on me.
Is there a particular or recommended setting (most successful combination) that anyone out there can suggest me trying?
Sometimes it will hang under heavy gaming but sometimes even browsing app and regular stuff will cause the phone to reboot or lock. If I work with no OCing at all then everything is fine and dandy.
Thanks, you can see my current configuration @ my signature.
Sounds like a very temperamental cpu. Currently I have the same setup you do and have never had issue with 1400mhz or 1600mhz. Though I usually leave mine at 1200mhz. What app are you running when it hangs?
And just as important, do you have alot running in the background? The modified touchwiz launcher unnamed comes with can be enabled to show a red dot next to the apps that have been opened and are in the background.
If you could list the apps with the red dots.

It does? That sounds more like one of the themes that includes TW4.5.
Not all CPUs can overclock - there's a reason it was sold as a 1.2 GHz chip.
Well as I've mentioned before, it could even hand when browsing through my apps menu, browsing the gallery, playing a game (non in particular) and the funny part is that the phone is not even hot to touch.
What I know for sure if that if no OC = no hangs, no reboots.
I do have the App monitor widget that comes with the stock ROM and currently using it on UnNamed 1.3.1 and I only have Widget Locker App. However I have try closing it and still will happen.
Not sure if maybe this CPU is somehow having an issue that makes it unstable as soon as I OC it.

Now that is new to me, I thought that all of them were OCable. Is there anyway to identify which can be or not OCed?
nope.. just by testing. it does have to do a little bit with the kernel and rom. the roms didnt originally have stable OC. i would assume that all of them do now. one thing you might try is giving them a little more voltage (just a little) at the higher clocks, but be careful. if you increase the voltage that means that you will sink more enery through the cpu and it will get hot quick. make sure you watch the temp.
i find that setcpu is less stable than the built in cm7 oc menu but cm7 doesnt have a voltage menu.
but on the same token... why OC? i can and i did but i dont need to... everything is like butter and i didnt see that huge a gain by OCing it anyways

I know, this Exynos processor is the best out there right now, forget about Qualcomm's Snapdragon on the Skyrocket. I am just trying to OC for the fun of it

have you ever overclocked PC CPUs? if you have spent much time doing that, then you would know that not every chip, even within the same model/family, will clock the same. take 2 CPUs, from the same batch, same model, with identical hardware tied to them. you will probably find that one clocks higher stable speeds than the other.
its very likely the proc in your phone just cannot handle the overclocks that the next person's could.
Like pirate said, no two pieces of hardware are identical. Sort of shows how much variance there can be in a manufacturing process. Id guess theres a few chips that come off the same line that arent stable at 1.2 ghz, but they dont make it to the devices, whereas one that can handle a higher clock will. (No sense tossing one that exceeds minimum requirements, thatd just be throwing good hardware away)
You could try nudgin the voltage up and seeing how it behaves, just use caution.

To get mine to overclock to 1.4 and 1.6Ghz I had to actually INCREASE the voltage settings via Voltage control app. So my settings are: 1.6Ghz= 1475mV and 1.4Ghz=1325mV
Try those out and see if is better for you. I tried undervolting the higher voltages and would either lockup or reboot instantly until I tried adding voltages. So you may need to play with your settings to get it to work for you.

Yup, or if they want to sell a "premium" device with a higher clock rate, they will take the parts that test well at 1.4 and sell them as such - meaning parts rated 1.2 will be LESS likely to be overclockable if a device comes out with CPUs rated at 1.4 - like the Galaxy Note did.
Before, anything that could meet the requirements of stable at 1.2 was sold to any Galaxy S II - but now, the premium parts are going into the Note.

I am having the same issue as the original poster on my new GS2. I will have to try the settings you mention but would it be possible to do this and also apply /UV to the remaining lower (1000ghz to 200ghz) processor speeds and maintain stability?
Honestly, I'm down to 1512. A notch above that proved unstable as far as I can tell. I can run benchmarks fine upwards of ~1800, but I'll get random force closes and boot loops if left for any extended period of time. Also have issues with display not coming back on (menu lights and led backlight work, but no image). The stability test app is pretty much worthless too. Let it run for 6 hrs no errors. When I turned it off, BAM restart.
So what is your max, truly stable, OC?

edit: just for archival's sake, using Anthrax-CDMA-Sense (v1216) with Scott's 2.08.651.2 Stock Rooted ROM.
That's interesting...
I'm using the same Kernel with Scott's 'senseless' ROM and I have my clock set to 1.836 with no issues.
I'm no expert but have you tried using a super wipe (or just manually wiping everything including system) and reflashing?

My first 3D was pretty stable at 1.94 but when it started getting the black screen of death I got it replaced through sprint. The Refurbed one they gave me (the one I have now) freezes if I go to 1.6..
I used to do 1.94 but it gave me random reboots (nothing fatal)
I stick to 1.5 smartass when the battery is greater than 50%, then 1.2 smartass, and .8 conservative at 15%.
On charge it's 1.7GHz lagfree
Depends on your CPU, they all arn't created equal. I'm stable at 1.9 GHz with no reboots. I'd say that 1.5 is a good mark, seeing as the HTC Rezound has the exact same CPU as the Evo 3D, just clocked to 1.5 instead of 1.2.

This is interesting. I bet the CPUs, while manufacturing wise are identical, are chosen based on thier bin level for the different devices.
After writing this post I cleared Dalvik cache and switched my kernel to RCmix-evo3d-v7. I ran it at 1.62 or something like that while I was running around Christmas shopping, so it had heavy use. Google nav, lots of phone calls, texts, Pandora, etc with zero issues (especially that display issue I mentioned is gone, thank god). After getting home I was so impressed with it that i stepped it up to 1.782, and we'll see about that, although I'm not holding my breath.
Basically I learned that your overclocking potential (or maybe more accurately system stability regardless of overclocking) is greatly influenced by your kernel.
Akasa Fox, mind sharing your kernel version, ROM and version, and hboot and any other potentially relevant information I may be forgetting? I'm impressed with your performance.

The kernel does have a decent bit to do with your max OC, but it also has to do with the CPU you have and if it was made on a good day at the foundry or not and how good a section of the silicon it came from.
I used to run RC Mix kernels before Chad was around, but those kernels always ran MUCH hotter. When playing a game my phone would literally be almost too hot to touch. Chad's Anthrax kernels have always been cool and after playing a game for a while (same game, same amount of time) the phone is just a bit warm. So you may be able to go farther with an OC on RC Mix kernels, but your phone's lifetime for its processor is going to be a whole lot less. At the temp it was hitting id bet it is well above its max rated temperature level and degrading the processor substantially.
Some people may not be able to OC far, but how far can you undervolt? Many times those who cannot OC very high can undervolt like crazy (me included) and those who can OC much higher than most also cannot run really low voltage levels. My phone is 100% stable @ 192MHz on only 700mv. Thats the lowest Chad allows, Id love to see if I can be stable even lower. I am also 100% stable @ 1188MHz (HTC Stock) with only 987.5mv. But the most I have ever been able to overclock stably (even with RC Mix kernel) was 1.6GHz, with the max benchable being 1.72GHz. Any higher and the phone insta locks up and reboots. No matter what voltage.
Hm, that's a good point. I'd like to push the undervolt limits as well to see what its got. That anthrax kernel I mentioned in the first post was terribly unstable for me, but maybe I should give it another shot after researching the super wipe method mentioned a few posts up. Is there a version of his kernel that everyone is having good luck with? Or is the latest one the best?
Also, I don't see voltage options in the antutu program. What are you using for your oc/uv utility?
Thanks.

His latest 100% Qualcomm based kernel is incredibly smooth. 100% stable for me. I'm giving this kernel a lot of praise considering I used to have crazy reboots and lockups on the older anthrax kernels.

Weird. Well, I will give it another shot before writing him off. I'm a noob so its entirely possible and probable that I did something wrong.

My phone won't overclock for ****. At first it would do good and I could get around 1.7-1.8, now when I try anything after superwipe and wiping through nand, I can't get the thing to post at 1.5 and remain stable without lockups/freezing and slowdowns. The phone even has trouble at stock now. I haven't traded it in for obvious no s off reason.
1.78 GHz. I can do 1.83 but not very stable.
1.782 runs all day locked at that speed but I usually run bcblend kernel @ 1.512 max 194 min. Ondemand.

I know it was Virus' InfectedROM (Before the nightly), Software 2.08.651.2, HBoot 1.5 (HTC Unlock.) [Edit]: I'm almost certain the Kernel I used was Tiamat, hard to remember though, seeing as I traded out performance for battery life by switching to viper ages ago. (And that i'm a flashaholic )

First off, let me say that this is more a question out of curiosity so I can learn more about the android system then real concern.
That having been said, I have noticed that AOSP roms consistently score lower on benchmark software (Antutu to be exact) then Sense based roms, even though its immediately obvious that the AOSP roms are faster in the "real world". I have read on another phone's forum that it was OpenGL based for that phone, is it the same thing for our Rezounds, or are there other factors at work?
I do realize that benchmark scores are not the end all for performance representation, however the fact remains that there has to be something that is bringing down the AOSP score, hence why this is a question of curiosity .
That is an observation I have not made. The scores are pretty much the same for me. Just ran a 6336 on Antutu. Without overclocking, I run about the same on Sense.
I just had to rerun to make sure I wasn't making an a** of myself....
Both runs were using Neo's roms (adrenaline and rage)
on adrenaline with dsb's kernel and no OC I got a 7125
on rage running the bundled kernel i got a 6577
I've never seen over 7k on this phone without some heavy overclocking. What version of dsb's kernel are you using? A lot of them don't hold stable clocks. Try a benchmark with the stock kernel. It's a much more fair test since the AOSP is basically stock.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
I was running his 2.01 kernel with 192 min and 1.5 max using smartassv2 gov for the posted score.
Will have to get back to you on the stock kernel numbers as I am currently back on AOSP since I am playing around with themeing it, however for what it's worth this phone consistently (10-12 different benchmark runs) scored between 7000 and 7200 on the dsb kernel.
Yup I got over 8200 with my friends class 10 card in... With the standard one I get just under 7800 with OC and around 7200 without on DSBs kernel on 2 different roms...
Does anyone even use geekbench?

Well Rezound is built for sense so you can expect it to be, but once we get a working OC kernel you will see asop jump up in benchmarks
In Antutu, I get around 6500 with "stock" based Sense 3.6 roms. Then Sense 4 came out and the Antutu scores are 1000 higher, my top was 7700. I don't know why Sense 4 runs so much faster, especially since it was ported to our phone. AOSP I think scores were in between, 7000 range? But I'm not certain. Anyway Sense 4 is blisteringly fast, Sense 3.6 is garbage, and AOSP roms are the fastest going between apps/launcher. Once AOSP gets more solid, I will probably switch full time, but ViperREZ Sense 4 has sooooooo many features (and speed) it is hard to put down.
Hello everyone!
Right, I bought my htc two days ago from o2 on PAYG off course, I did my own research about the phone and I was happy with the results soo, I bought it.
When I play a game like GTA 3 with a stock settings I get some sort of lag for some reasons, although I thought, because it had the Tegra 3 chip it should run any game without any problem.
The phone is 100% stock!
here is some info in my phone that might help;
Baseband: 3.1204.168.32
Build number: 1.17.206.1
Does anyone have similar problem with the HOX+?
Also, my signal drops sometimes and it does not regain for some reason unless I go to flight mode, ON then off, back to normal. I am with o2/giffgaff, any ideas?
Thanks for your help!:laugh:
AW: [Q] My htc one x+ is laggy while playing a game and signal drops?
There are some major discussions going on around the web regarding gaming performance of this device. Furthermore there are some gaming reviews foot it on you've and so on. They are easy to find if you really look. Just do another search.
But for now here s why:
Tegra 3 is a quite performant soc for a mobile device. But it does have some issues.
First is the bad optimization by game developers. Mostly it's Gameloft. They then to ignore the fact that they should optize their games for different platforms to get a enjoyable gaming experiance. Had been worse. ATM most games are playable.
Next problem is that the graphics processors clock speed is firmly linked to the clock the CPU is running. This means when games do demands little CPU performance GPU will also clock down leading to lags. This has been improved with custom kernel, game updates due to tegra optimizations and custom kernels and ROMs.
Last but not least is that the CPU tends to be running in single core. All in all this service does have a lot of power... Mostly a lot of still unused power but I'm confident devs will go on and improve the situation even more than they already have.
For GTA just lower the graphic settings a bit or try rennovate gaming fix.
For now the only games that are not running for me as they should are GTA iii with some minor lagging, nova 3 playable since latest updates but not enjoyable. And last but not least real racing 3 with most of the time 35+ fps but many drops below 20.
For signal drops: maybe it's bad reception in your area?

I don't think you understood what he said. The main point was, the GPU base clock runs at a set frequency directly related to the current clock speed of the CPU. So games like GTA that require little resources from the CPU, do not utilize the GPU to it's fullest. There are some custom kernels that allow the GPU to run at it's max speed regardless of CPU useage.

The max Clock Speed is 1600mhz when using all 4 cores, you can only get to 1700mhz when running on a single core. Do you have power saver enabled? That limits CPU frequency.

I found out that the game was not fully optimized for the tigra 3 chip, soo I rooted the phone and used Viperx+ 1.06 rom so I can have more control then the stock rom. Now i can do alot of things like set min/max cpu clocks speeds and soo much more, buttery life is much better now (thanks to SetCPU!!:victory but yeah I knew in the end (after going throw alot of reviews) that phone will use 1.7GHz with the 5th core only!
Is there a way I can run 4 cores at 1.6GHz then running 1 core at 1.7GHz or, if I just set max cpu to 1.6GHz, then I will run the 4 cores?
I am using elitekernel for venom team.
No, I dont use power saver anymore!:laugh:
