I am using this kernel which enables you to clock to 768 Mhz and my friend said this is impossible as the heros max is 528 Mhz, i am trying to tell him that this kernel allows you to clock to 768 Mhz but he still insists that the limit is 528 Mhz so how exactly can you clock to 786 Mhz?
same as with pc. the processor guarantees 528, depending on whether you got one of the "good" batch or the "not so good batch" you can turn that clock up.
i got the **** batch <-- IFAIL

you need to run a rom with an adapted kernal that allows overclocking to take place, currently this can only be done on some android 1.5 based roms. Check the title it usually advertises as overclock enabled.

yeah like Kimera.
You could do it on your rom your currently on but you would first have to take it apart, modify the kernal then rebuild it, so unless you really know what your doing its probably best just to switch to a new rom.

I see,... Excellent,... This is getting interesting now.
One more thing then if you don't mind....
I have previously been told how to add and remove .apk's from a ROM using it as a base. Is it anything like this?... Take the kernal out of my base ROM, swap it with the one from the Kimera ROM, maybe modify .xml files to tell it new filenames etc, then re-sign? Or is there alot more to it than that?
This is definitely something I'd like to be able to do sometime. Its not something thats needed right now though as I'm quite happy to quietly sit waiting for 2.1.
Thanks again Lenny.

Asking <> Trying!
The only way you can tell how far you can overclock the particular processor in your phone is to actually overclock incrementally, and see how far you can go before the phone becomes unstable.
Whilst Kendons response was terse, he was quite right in what he said, and you should really apologise!

Dave
Kendongs always been a great help,i dont really notice the sarcasm as its exactly what i would have said! You really do have to just try things out but be careful.Anything with new radio or including a radio can be potentially lethal to your Hero

Yeah your right, asking isn't really trying. I could have read up more and found out for myself. But I don't agree that I owe him an apology. For a fact he knew that he would be no help to me whatsoever and would likely just tick me off. He definitely was not trying to help. I'm still adamant it would've been more appropriate for him to say nothing at all.
... And thanx for the input Dave & Bonesy. I'll keep what you said in mind, definitely dont want it burning out.
Thank you.

Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using XDA Premium App
I might be wrong here, but I think any ROM released for a dual core device is already going to be utilizing both cores.
you can download system tuner and go into the tweaks section. hit the cpu tab, and make sure a bunch is running in the background. then rapidly slide the notification bar up and down really fast. you should see a second cpu bar come up.

OK so you can try this although I can't guarantee that it will work or that MIUI even has a inti.d folder. I'm assuming it does.
1. download attached file
2. rename attached file to "10dualcore" (remove the .txt)
3. copy the file to your phones /system/ect/inti.d folder
4.) reboot
5.) check with system panel (free) see if dual cores in working.
Thats it, see it really wasn't that hard. If it doesn't work then I don't know what to tell ya.
Thanks, it worked

This should do it. It will enable dual core all the time. Just note your battery will probably die quicker.
Flash the attached file in recovery. It uses init.d so be sure your rom supports it, most do.

Get yourself CleanROM DE 2.0P1 and then go to the dev forum and read. You will learn how to flash yourself to using both cores all the time without killing your battery and a fast and smooth phone!

Open SetCPU, then
Menu> Device Selection> Auto Detect
It will automatically detect your processor if it's supported (which it is) and show all available frequencies the kernel will allow.
So it just automatically enables it? In system runner it is an option that you can turn on and off. Does setcou have a function the allows you to enable and disable the second processor?

Not that I'm aware of. At least I haven't seen it anywhere in the settings. It does what I need it to so I haven't even considered using anything else. Disabling a core seems counter-productive to me, but to each their own I guess.

Couple of question:
1). The version in XDA is 2.24, but the Google Play version is 3.0. Since the XDA version is so outdated, does that means it still have LOTS of bugs that have not been ironed out?
I don't mind donating, but I want to try SetCPU first and hoping I can try the latest version.
2). Judging by the reviews in Google Play, this app doesn't work very well for the AT&T Note. Does it work for you?

Personally I don't trust Google Play reviews simply because most of the ratings and reviews are generated by bots and are not real or true. I have used v2.2.4 on my Note with no issues on GB or ICS(although there is no OC support in ICS since there isn't kernel source yet, it helps control lag and battery life), never really used any other app, been using SetCPU since I had my G1 lol. I see the dev hasn't even been on Xda since January, so maybe if you email him via his Google Play dev email and ask him to update the Xda thread to the latest version you might get somewhere. But if you don't mind donating then feel free.

Yeah setcpu is great. Use it on my CM9 HP touchpad and on my ICS Atrix 4G. No reason to control individual cores. Let android handle it.
It is, however, useful for undervolting/under/over clocking if supported by your kernel.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
For the AT&T Note, what settings do you use that is MOST STABLE?
1). Governance
2). Scheduler
3). Minimum CPU (there is a warning in the app that some Samsung phone may CRASH if using lower than 384Mhz)
I am not looking to Overclock, just to save battery.
I am rooted, stock ROM and kernel.
EDIT: hmm... I setup the following and my battery life seems to WORSEN:
1). Minimum CPU: 192 instead of 384
2). ONE profile --> screen off: CPU is between 192 to 540
Everything else is default. Now my battery goes down by 1% / 10 minutes while screen is ON and 1% / 20-25 minutes while screen is OFF. Prior to installing SetCPU, it's 1% / 15-20 minutes when screen is ON and when screen is OFF, I tested (ovenight) --> 5% in 8 hours.
I have NOT installed anything after installing SetCPU. The above time was tested while using the Note normally. I.e. browsing the web, NOT watching movies, etc.

I'm not using ICS and refuse to upgrade til the official release and kernal source is available. I use gingerbread and there are kernals available but none support the app 2nd core. I posted a thread yesterday askin if someone could add support to a Gingerbread kernel so people like myself that still use gingerbread could try this app. The app is very nice and very useful. You can use single core mode which will save lots of battery or dual core mode which will speed up your device. The international Note has a couple of kernels that support this app and there are a lot of great review about how great it actually is. If you would've actually took time to read the OPs post you would have seen that in his signature he is using DAGr8s kernel which means he is also using Gingerbread which means I answered his question the right way. Maybe he has upgraded to ICS but I was just answering with the info I was given.
I am not quite sure what this is about. I just switched over from the Motorola Photon, from what I understand that the second core is turn ON automatically when needed. This is to help save power , heat and battery life.
To turn ON the second core is easy. If you are rooted and have terminal emulator installed.
Issue the following command in terminal as superuser:
To Turn ON
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
To turn OFF the second Core:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
That's it. I checked myself.
When I was using the Motorola Photon. Using both cores all day does not accomplished anything but ruin battery life and generated heat.
I read the info on 2nd core App. It basically does the same thing as the 2 commands above. All you have to do is create 2 scripts. One to turn ON and the other to turn OFF and use script manager in the play store create the short cut or widget and execute that on the fly.
