How come whenever i set Antutu CPU master to over clock to 1782 MHz it goes back to 854 MHz? Why? It really annoys me. Im currently using the latest Leedroid rom and the Unity V3 kernel
It wont run at that speed all the time, just when the cpu need to run that fast. If it was constantly running at max speed, your battery would drain in an hour.
no what i mean is that I specify that range would be 384 mhz to 1782 mhz but instead it automatically sets itself back to 384 to 864. I want it to stay at what I specify it to.
Bug in the kernel maybe. Or bug in CPU master.
I remember someone did this on the Galaxy S (my last phone) and limited overclocking to 5 minutes before auto setting speed back to default to save the CPU from damage. Because to maintain stability at the overclocked speed the kernel dev had also set voltage MUCH higher. Which actually could cause damage to the processor so in that case its a good thing he limited overclocking to only 5 minutes.
Which kernel are you running?
I was running unity

Ok, I got one question... Is it ok to use max default cpu speed (if I'm not overclocked). 1024... Or should I put a lower amount...
Sorry for my bad English.

As for me, 800 MhZ is enough for comfortable work.
Overclocking is needed only in "Heavy" games.

1024Mhz is stock speed and yes its safe to use.
If you using your phone only for calling/sms...then 800Mhz is enough.
For calls you can eaven use 600 and if you have your rom rooted you can set the voltage a bit lower.
But from my experience you can easy use the 1 ghz freq and the battery lasts long if you don´t use much your phone.
Neo works fine at 1.4 ghz from performance and battery.
If you use sio i/o and lagfree.
Depending on your CPU you could undervolt it at 1ghz and achieve the same results as it is on 800mhz. But yeah 1ghz is efficient enough just stay away from Live Wallpapers.

Even devices with 600-700mhz is browsing web, watching YouTube, have live wallpapers, playing music, record videos......and etc
So why not use our phones too 700mhz
Please guys don't forget...minimum CPU with rooted phones have 122mhz
If they work even so low frequency...why not 600mhz....or up.
Edit. I'm using 122-1300mhz, screenoff 122-567mhz smartass/all frequency voltages lowered -50mV.

thanks bro for the tip to settle it low when screen is off, maybe thaT is more saving battery life, and i hit that button
I'm using CM9 RC1 on a Note right now and the default settings are 200 Mhz min and 1.4 Ghz max.
Is there any benefit to using a higher min like 500 Mhz or is it just a waste of power? I'd assume it would be slightly faster upon wake up.
You can always try, as long as you know what you're doing. Are you familiar with overclocking, and how to test higher clock speeds without having them set on boot until you have tested for stability. 200MHz seems a bit low for echo 0, but you can try to start bumping up echo table 0 values slowly and at small incremental increases. For instance, from 200MHz, go to 220MHz and test, then if stable bump up to 240MHz and so on. Jumping from 200MHz to 500MHz may not be the best idea without a "seasoning" of the CPU at echo table 0...

I've overclocked on PCs before but I'm not overclocking. I just want to know if there's any benefit to setting a higher min speed.
It probably will not yield any performance increase to clock your lowest frequently scaling higher, since likely your device's governor (I'm assuming) is set to mot_hotplug.
Unless you're using a governor setting of "performance" or the like, your CPU's governor will step down through the kernel's frequently tables as determined by the load. Again, unless you're running a governor setting that does anything but what is similarly done with mot_hotplug the CPU's core(s) will be turned off when not demanded.

Ive been using android overclock. On demand. and staying at 350 to 1420 and its been working really well as far as battery usage
I´ve been using ondemand-noop min 245, max 1024
Ok. That was 2012. Now is 2020. Updates to minimum and maximum for Android 8/9???

Just to have said it: CPU speed affects performance of Android device, doesn't depend on Android version. The more a processor is stressed the more the battery is drained. IMHO CPU speeds matter less than they did in the past, thanks to the advent of multi-core processors as they installed in ( most ) modern phones. Multi-core processors always have a "mixed speed": Not all cores are stressed the same way. Also, note how these multi-cores processors are designed: Octa-cores for example aren't using all 8 cores at once. Octa-cores use 4 high speed cores and 4 low speed power efficient cores. An Octa-core uses the 4 power efficient cores most of the time, but switches to the higher speed cores as needed for power intensive tasks.
I don't think there is a way to configure each cpu-core's max /min speed separately. BTW: Even today most Android apps/games make use of 2 cores only.
i was messing aroud with voltage control and cpu spy and i noticed that the cpu speed was only topping out at like 1ghz these phones come with dual core 1.5 ghz correct? mine has never seen that high of a speed is there a reason or am i missing something? on my s2 it had a 1.2 dual core cpu i believe and it said how long each speed had seen action and i even bumped it up to like 1.4. im nervous to mess around with the speed if its already 1.5 i was just gonna set it to like 1.6 or something.but it seems mine is running each core at just 1ghz can anyone lend me some light on this.
You have Power Saving ON , that limits max cpu speed.
ahh thank you so much another question on spu spy it says unused cpu stats im guessing is 1.1 and 1.2 is there a reason they are unused? also just a guess but looks like i cant go any higher than 1.5 with voltage control? is there another app that lets me bump it up to like 1.6? or 1.7?
Don't worry about it , cpuspy doesn't have full history of your cpu activity, cpu clocks up and down depending on load.
CpuSpy is not very reliable from my experience.
You need to flash a different kernel that will allow you to over clock the cpu. Voltage control will allow you to do this but you need a kernel that will let you over clock first.

ok thanks.
So, I've overclocked my EVO 3D to a reasonable 1.5 GHz(maximum recommended frequency by Qualcomm for S3 processors). Will that degrade its performance? I am talking about long-term effects.

Yes, overclocking can cause damage to the CPU if it is done too drastically for the processor and used heavily overtime. Since it is the "maximum recommended", you should be quite fine, though it wouldn't hurt to knock it down one step .

As it's maximum recommended, it's fine. Even a little beyond that should be fine. The HTC Sensation XE uses it as default frequency on the same chipset, so your phone should be fine. Your phone might get a bit hotter though.
Actually, you should be just fine. If your maximum CPU frequency scaling is 1.5GHz that doesn't mean it will always run that fast, unless you've got your CPU governor set to not allow for any load relief (I.e.: a "performance" mode). Might be a good idea to underclock your echo 0 table values also, to give a lower 'resting' frequency scale. One more thing to think about is under/overvolting. Obviously, with overclocked CPUs they will discharge more of your battery faster at higher clock speeds. Just something to think about and/or research before editing voltages...

^^This is untrue^^…
If you clock higher than what may be your highest stable CPU clock speed, you will experience freezes and random reboots, etc. Your phone will not explode or anything...

just dont charge the phone when u playing some games that uses a lot of resources because your phone will get to really high temperature, in my opinion, its safety to overclock processor to 20% of his maximum freq.
example:
1000 mhz - 1200 mhz

Check the temp of the cpu with system tuner and judge it based on that.

I'm trying to develop an OC'd kernel for Pantech vega racer 2 phone. It has the same hardware as HTC Evita.
I was able to overckock it using zarboz' and rohan's work. But the frequence is drops down to stock 1.5 Ghz while the processor is on max load.
For example, I started SetCPU stress test and after few minutes checked max freq. It was dropped down to stock 1.5 Ghz.
The same with Antutu bench. Even with OCing up to 2 Ghz in final resulst it show 1512 Mhz and freqs are dropped down.
Due to the lack of development for this phone, I can't find any examples of OC code especially for this phone, so,Devs, I need your help.

Thermal throttling is your issue.
It reduces the CPU frequency a lower one to protect your battery from heat...
Try editing or deleting thermald.conf from /bin.
