hi
i have st15i .42 locked boot loader. after rooting and installing a few mods/modules like usb storage, status bar power widget, cwm recovery, im experiencing lags in light/medium games like piggy adventures or fruit ninja. i also have some lags in menu scrolling. any idea about the reason and the solution?
thanx in advance
Test Overclock
If your device you might use a root app for overclocking and another to kill the extra RAM used in the background. Use the CPU Overclock Tuner : Dto do a test and using Antutu Beckmark and make sure your points are higher. If you did then esiver overclock and can improve desenpenho of games. I use Advanced Task Killer to kill free RAM : Cool:. Can there be anything better question search
_ If I helped you leave a Thank's

Overclocking is quite dangerous and gives only small boost.
thanx for all your attention and help. no i havent over clocked my device. V6 supercharger looks cool. im gonna give it a try. but its a bit strange for me, my room mate's mini is rooted but doesn't have these problems.
ive checked my memory during games. i had a lot of free ram, what can be the reason of lagging except low ram?

The Kernel With Original Factory The final FW 58 is the max supported the Core Clock. Because when short pulses at high speed. This would not have to run anymore. Working below core reduces battery depletion that is true or false.

I don't think anyone has started to work on OC, but we would need to see what kernel sources we have first... Then we figure out how to OC
also it gets hot with long wifi downloads or 3g ie gps using aura so overclock may not be a good idea.

Overclocking doesn't mean that the CPU will get hotter as long as you aren't changing the voltage. If the CPU handle 1.4 Ghz on the standard voltage, it won't get warmer and also won't consume more battery.
Dual 1.4ghz wud b pretty sweet lol wat if we increased it to 1.6ghz n just increased the voltage a lil bit or is that a bad idea n p.s is it me or since Root my fone only reaches 3.5k on the quadrent ive deleted alot of samsung apps n my memory is usualy at around 250mb iv seen people score ova 4k in their s2,

Might be a good idea, might not work because the CPU might already be near it's maximum. It'll definitely be worth it if you want to push out amazing benchmark scores, though! Just might not be stable enough to use for a daily phone if overclocked heavily.

This is completely wrong. It is very well known that incresing the frequency increases the power consumption (also with same voltage). Just google if you don't believe me.

What a lot of bull**** dude.
Of course more speed on a processor will consume more power even if dont change the voltage.

I get around 203MB of free RAM this way... Which works great for games like Modern Combat 3 or other RAM heavy games/apps.
Does anyone know if one of the things I froze is bad to freeze? Or of any other items we could freeze to get the most optimal amount of RAM possible for this device? I'm curious to see if we can see a stable 210MB+ of RAM (with nothing running).
What results do you guys get?

I wonder how stable it is your device after you freeze all those components in every day use.
And another question, I see you have it overclocked to 1.5 Ghz, again, how stable it is?. And, what voltage modifications and governor do you use for that kind of overclock?
Thank you, it is good to see a topic related to maximize resources in this gem.
I have RAM Manager and it works pretty well if you also have a task manager.

It seems pretty stable. I haven't come across any issues thus far. The roughly 200mb of free RAM makes playing Shadowgun so smooth with 4xMSAA enabled. Clocking it to 1.5GHz prior also smooths the fps out a good bit too.
Shadowgun (without 4xMSAA and 1.5GHz) = Very high, probably 50-60fps
Shadowgun (with 4xMSAA and 1GHz) = Significantly lower fps, probably around 20fps
Shadowgun (with 4xMSAA, 200mb of RAM free prior, 1.5GHz) = Pretty good fps, probably around 30-40fps or so.
Oh and my 1.5GHz clocked profile is...
ondemand, 100~1500MHz
L0 1500MHz - 1350mV - 1150mV
L1 0800MHz - 1200mV - 1100mV
L2 0400MHz - 1050mV - 1100mV
L3 0200MHz - 0950mV - 1100mV
L4 0100MHz - 0950mV - 1000mV
I've had no stability issues with this profile so far. I usually only use it for intense gaming like Shadowgun (since it uses a ton of special effects/resources) in order to obtain a smooth framerate. I also use it for Modern Combat 3 and Order & Chaos. On a non-gaming note; It seems to make the OS run MUCH faster, GOLauncher seems very speedy as well + fluid transitions.
I've had it at 1.5GHz all day and while battery did drop a bit, it was very speedy and usable during the time I used it (occasionally over a work day).
I've probably had this profile for about a month or so now, and nothing has crashed or frozen due to it.
This might work
Personally I just rooted my SGP player 5.0 and downloaded a custom rom. The custom rom I had had an auto task killer or whatever it was called, which automatically freed up memory. This helps so much because in the stock rom I had to always go to the task maager.
Here's a link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1423
Thank you for the response, I'm gonna try your profile to see if how it works for me. And if I burned it, I'll send you the receipt...

Lol you won't burn it at 1.5Ghz, but at 2GHZ.... that's another story. Lets just say I was showing off how the slider went to 2GHz and hit apply on accident. The screen instantly dissolved, in the way an old Gameboy Color would when you turned it off (image burn?). Luckily it reboot shortly afterwards and seemed fine. That was about 2 months ago. So uh... yeah. 1.5 is stable, 1.6 worked, but I haven't tested it enough yet.
I'm testing 1.4 for now using your voltage values from 1.5
I'll keep it like that for a few days and then i will ramp it up to 1.5
Also, this is REALLY weird, maybe I'm just crazy and/or ignorant, but every time I install a new ROM, the last thing I do is change the DPI value from 240 to 200, and when I reboot the device, everything becomes faster, noticeable faster and smoother, have anyone else noticed that?

I'll go ahead and confirm that you can clock from 1.1-1.3GHz without changing anything other than the clock speed. 1.4Ghz+ is where I'd apply the 1.5Ghz profile I use currently.
And no, it doesn't head up much during intense gaming; At least not for me.

Opinions from people who really know? I can't imagine that overclocking increases battery life.
It doesn't. At least from my understanding. In fact as I understand it running at higher clock speeds would decrease your battery life no? I usually under clock, so...

The theory is that overclocking allows you to complete processes quicker, which in turn allows the processor to go back to a idle/deep sleep faster. In practice it doesn't really work that way though.

doesn't the increase in voltage also come into effect?
They did talk a little about undervolting to increase battery life. Personally I don't worry about it. I'm not using my phone to sort out heavy algorithims at the moment, so running how it does is fast enough for what I use it at. Just found the article interesting.

They say the undervolting on lower clocks should balance out the higher voltage on overclocks.

Undervolting rarely makes a difference on mobile SoC's, but on the desktop/laptop CPUs you can really save a ton of power with undervolting and underclocking.
Why to overclock and understand it?
Here is a good reason to know what you are doing..
and the battery avg's lasting at least through the day, but most of the time, I have a charger near me...

The article says its not the actual overclocking that is saving battery life. When you put SetCPU on your phone not only can you overlock but you can underclock and set different voltages. I'm not 100% sure how the voltages play into it but you can set the processor to run at really low speeds during certain acts ei. when the screen is off, or any other time you don't necessarily need alot of power. That's and I changed all the voltages (I got them from a post where the guy knew what he was doing and tested them). I get almost 2 days moderate browsing, apps and text. If I talk alot or use my hotspot I only get 1.5 days. It is a little time consuming to get everything just right but when you do you really see it.

This isn't a SetCpu feature there are other programs that can do this as well. It just so happens SetCpu has it built into the program. I bought SetCpu back in my Atrix days and loved it so it does work great for a simple tuning program.

I'm running a kernerl and a custom ROM that allows me to underclock and overclock.
I tried it out both ways and the battery lasted for almost the same amount as on the stock option. As I tend to play games a lot on my phone, the underclocking ran into some issues with stuttering and sometimes force close of a couple of games.
Personally, I've never been a big fan of either .
hey guys,
i recently rooted my xperia s and im now on the KA speed 11.1 rom w/ 5.1 sspeed kernel. I just want to find out what you guys think is the optimal setcpu profile settings for a rooted Xperia S. By optimal i mean (extended batt life w/smooth lagless operations and less cpu heat)
thanks in advance!

And use AnTuTu cpu master , its more stable :good:
Before you doing something that can make your phone burn it is better for you to search an info about it. And there is a step of doing it not just simply swipe it to maximum clock. That is why the devs always remind us to take our own risk of overclocking. You can read more detail info from this link.

*Sorry for my english*
Overclocking the maximux cpu frequency doesnt mean heat/battery dies
It only increases the maximum level of what the frequency can reach , so if ur just browsing or watching utube or playing 2d games like angry birds , the fone wont run at the maximum overclocked frequency , so no effect will occur , but if u play a heavy game like modern combat 3 and u have overclocked , the cpu frequency will jump to the maximum and will cause heat after a while and more battery usage
Thats what i think

no necessary to overclock
hey guys...i bought my SXS with android 2.3.7 ....3months ago....bootloader unlocked...rooted...and really...2x 1,5GHz is totally enough for your device...even Shadow Gun runs perfectly smooth without overclocking.......but if you have installed a custom rom...you will get lags e.t.c ....if so...download chainfire 3d from google market....free ofcharge...install the driver and everything should be ok now.
if you want to overclock....i advice you to use cpu tuner...uses a bit memory...and you may choose how many cpu should run....i prefer to select just one cpu " in settings...use dual cpu.....deactivate" ....and then overclock it...you will get a nice performance and a little more battery life.
hope it helped
Has been using SetCPU for the last one day on rooted stock ROM n it really boosted the phone's performance.. Plus one of the weird thing is dat it actually saving battery..

Overclocking the CPU to improve gameplay is pretty much irrelevant unless you just want to keep your hands warm. If you want better frame rates you should overclock the GPU but even still the you shouldn't expect huge results as unfortunately the mali 400mp4 is getting a little old these days and at the stock gpu freq it just isn't powerful enough, but overclocking to 530 or 600mhz does make the game feel more responsive at the expense of the usual trade off with overclocking such as heat and battery life.
