Hi, first of all i would like to know if there is any uncomplicated way to overclock the gpu (and cpu) of the x10i (adreno 200) or is it even possiple?
My x10i is rooted, xrecovery is installed as well as the fps uncap (54 fps). (but i dont want to unlock the bootloader!)
Also i would like to be able to set the cpu frequency as i want it to be, which (free) app would you recommend, should be stable and reliable (should maybe also show the current frequency)?
If thats possible, it wouldnt be bad being able to set the gpu speed/frequency as well.
Until now I've found cpu tuner and antutu cpu master...
Thanks in advance guys
First u will need a custom kernel that supports OC, then u can use no frills cpu master (free from market) to overclock
OK thanks, but as i read in some other threads you cant really go much past 1100 mhz (cpu) because it will get unstable, so i just want to set the cpu frequency i want (so just underclocking or permanently stick it to 998mhz).
Which (free) app is best for this?

Dont know about free but if youre willing to spend a little, SetCpu from the market works wonders

No frills cpu is free
So then i'm gonna try no-frills cpu control, but why is it better than antutu cpu master (free), or is it even better(?), both of them got an average of about 4,5 stars....
I've also seen that antutu cpu master (free) has advanced options with gpu control, but i dont really understand what can be done in these settings....there are no listed frequencies or anything.....(https://market.android.com/details?id=com.antutu.CpuMasterFree&hl=de)
I would say that other cpu apps may have more options but no frills is simple and elegant.As a normal user we dont need more than this.
Just my opinion
Works perfectly and has a nice statistic about the frequency(s) used
If u search xda forum properly u can find set CPU for free as a treat for xda members from the dev.

Thanks but i'm happy with no-frills cpu control at the moment, has everything i need:
- full control over the current frequency
- widget showing the current frequency
- statistic about frequency(s) used (total and last 5 seconds)
- option to set my desired frequency right after booting
So for now thats all i need, maybe when i want to overclock it a bit (future, not now), then i'll use setcpu.
Hi,
is there an app to see what GPU frequencies the phone uses ?
Like CPU Spy but for GPU.
Thx
no dint find any there r apps to test gpu...
Hii
I am currently using neat rom lite..and siyah 3.3d kernel..
However i am having some problem..Even though i get the option of OCing my cpu to 1400 through extweaks.. I am unable to do any overclocking with other apps like set cpu or sys tuner..They still show my max cpu freq as 1200..
Also today i scaled my cpu from 800-1400mhz for playing a heavy demanding game( the dark knight rises) and after about 40 min of gameplay..i found out from cpu spy..that 39 min my cpu stayed on 800mhz...while for only 30s it stayed at 1.4 ghz.. why sooo?
what am i doing wrong? can anyone shed some light please
thanks

well even if u set 1.4g also the same will be reached only when the cpu demand for the same is created by any app and since for most of the games 800mhz is more than sufficeient.
also over clocking CPU will in long run does hamper ur performance rather than improving the same, and also u may find issues like Random reboot or freezes creeping up
try using extweaks only and uninstall other set cpu apps..

actually i want to use set cpu so i can tweak the governer settings..but really i dunno whats happening..it doesnt let get me past 1200 and even if i OC to 1400 using extweaks..it doesnt OC to 1400 because set cpu doesnt let it do so...
And comon..the dark knight rises is an open world game with awesome graphics..how can it not utilize the max processor..i cant believe it wont need more than 800mhz..coz it stutters a bit..
Update your kernel and extweaks app.
SetCPU app is original (from GPlay) or ripped from Internet?
i am on mean rom GB v45 + anthrax kernel included in it.The problem is when i play 3D game it run on 1.5 ghz and make my phone overheat even with simple 3D game like paper monster so i want downlclock it
using set cpu latest version(2.0.3.2 and 3.0.7 version)wth max 1.2 ghz and min 194 mhz but i see in widget it back to max 1.5 ghz sometimes
using system tuner pro, but it make my phone restart maybe there's conflict with the rom
using cpu antutu master pro , i cant adjust voltage but successly adjust the min and max clock speed eventough the min clock speed always going up same as max clock speed in antutu setting . Installing system tuner pro after adjusting antutu master and the cpu clock is the same as my setting on antutu cpu master pro.
if you have any experiece please share
thanx

First of all, the kernel in MeanROM GB 4.5 is a dodava kernel. The settings for OC/UV are controlled by parameters in the postboot script, not with apps like SetCPU and System Tuner. If you try to set them with those apps, they will be reset when the phone goes to sleep and wakes up again. There are some instructions for setting up the parameters in this post within the MeanROM GB thread, and the script has more information in the comments.
This post by mpgrimm2 is a good guide to setting up the postboot script parameters, including some recommended values. You might be better off posting further questions in the MeanROM GB thread if they are related to that ROM because there are still a lot of people using it that monitor the thread.

thank you very much for explanation
How can i see which application or system task uses how much cpu ?
I have galaxy s3. Installed cpu z and i see very high cpu usage when nothing running
50%+
