ROM ToolBOX Pro and I717 CPU frequency - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I just discovered for myself the CPU utility shows max CPU frequency as 1188MHZ. Is there something wrong with my CPU or is it ROM Toolbox's fault?
Thanks!

I use ROM toolbox a well for many thing including cpu speed... For me I'm can go all the way to 1.89 ghz.... Have you governed the cpu elsewhere? Also what ROM u using? I'm on aokp

the max that the rom toolbox sliders will go depends on the kernel you are using. Run and oc kernel and you can safely run at 1.86.

Did u set the cpu in rom toolbox and settings/performance/cpu? If u set both depending on the rom/kernel ya might have some weirdness.
Been using rom toolbox for almost a year, or whenever sasibob did her review on the main portal. The apps solid.

Thanks for your responses, guys. I was on Gingerbread stock. Now I'm on ICS stock and it goes all the way to 1500. Pardon my ignorance, what's oc kernel?

Overclockable...
Meaning there would be options higher than 1.5 .. And the frequency options would depend on the modules put in by the dev

SetCPU not working? Even with root and custom kernel

So I have my atrix rooted, running Alien Rom #4 with Fauxs Kernel! (2.6.32.9-MB860-GB-Faux123-v0.2.0 [email protected]#3) so it is supposed to let me overclock but when I use SetCPU app my only scaling options are performance and powersave and I can't get the CPU up to more than the default 1GHz. Why is that?? I was trying to overclock to 1,1 or 1,2 but it doesn't go past the 1GHz.
Someone knows what's happening here??

That's not the overclocked kernel. You need the 1.3 one if you want to go over 1GHz.

[Q] Setting CPU speed

Hello all, i have a question, i am using the Phenomenal 3.0 normal version kernel and is using SETCPU apps to manage my CPU speed. However, when i try to set the speed to 1100mhz and above, the CPU speed does not go up to 1100mhz and above, instead it always stay at 1000mhz.
Has anyone experinece this before? if yes, has anyone any steps to resolve this?
Could it be the undervolt issue that is preventing me for going up to 1100mhz?
Thanks.
Looking at the thread it doesn't look like the kernel has overclock capabilities,

I am not trying to overclock, just trying to go to 1400mhz at times but i just cant go past 1000mhz, only when i restart the phone, then it will go to 1400 at times...
seem like i have solve the problem by untick the cpu power saving under the power saving option. However, it seem like the SetCPU apps is useless as i am unable to control the CPU anymore.. is that true? or are there any apps that can overcome this issue?

Have you tried using other apps, instead of SetCPU, or are you running two CPU-manipulation apps at once?
Try clearing SetCPU's data/cache and try again
I personally use AnTuTu CPU Master, but that is a personal choice, I guess

I have SETCPU and system tuner pro... does these 2 apps cause the issue that i have?
Phenomenal kernel is a ready to use kernel. You cannot change any settings here in this kernel. It's not like any other kernel wherein gives you the ability to configure the cpu and gpu. Setcpu will only work with other kernels such as SiyahKernel. This will give you the ability to set the cpu and gpu freq and voltage. The power saving mode limits the power of your cpu, thus disabling it will increase cpu freq

Hi, thanks for the info and advise, so can i ask if i revert back to Stock Kernel, i should be able to control my CPU speed?

No u need a kernel with cpu freq altering capability integrated. Siyah kernel has this I know

I use Tegrak Overclock on stock rooted ROMs. It goes to 1.6Ghz. Works perfectly.

Nope. Stock kernel will not allow you to change it. If you're on stock ics rom, i would suggest you use siyah kernel v1.5.2. I'm once a user of it. If you need a guide in underclocking and undervolting, you can find the best guide here posted by bala_gamer. You can also settings in his signature which you can use.

Yes sir I know. But I just want to give other options. So that he can choose which is good for him. He can overclock upto 1800mhz in siyah kernel. But afaik, he is more on overclocking with undervolting to have performance and battery life.

Thank you all for your good advise... now i know why i cant set my CPU speed due to kernel.
Will look into trying other kernel if i really like to control my CPU.

And you are very right!!!!! Doesnt matter what app you use u cant overclock on stock kernel!!!! Stock kernel doesnt have the provision for that. And if members who send links read those links properly before they send them they will realise that you need a kernel that supports overclocking like siyah!!!!!!!!!!!! Stock kernel doesnt.

[Q] AnTuTu Benchmark

Hey guys, i have the SGS3 i9300, with Omega ROM v31.1 JB and SiyahKernel S3-v1.7rc3
Why is AnTuTu Benchmark showing me that my CPU is running at 1800 MHz ? I diidn't overclock it and everything is on default.
did u check Stweaks just incase the cpu is set to run at 1800mhz
sent.
yea... everything is set to default. I didn't change anything in sTweaks beside the Audio settings.
Is there any other program to check the cpu speed?

this is max cghz of your proccessor. Usually kernel doesnt set max freq, but it reports that is phone capable of 1.8 ghz

Viper3D anthrex kernel overclock

During the installation of the viper3D (275) ROM I can choose between clockspeeds (I'm using the synergy ROM atm so I know I can overclock it to 1,7ghz and still be stable) the gout clock can be raises to 320, is this safe? And as last what is the difference between ROM controlled overclocking and kernel controlled overclocking?

Overclocking is all in the kernel. The GPU clock speed (the one you're referring to at 320mhz) is the graphics processor, technically its not being overclocked, its being brought back up to the Qualcomm default speed

I would suggest you dont go anywhere near 1.4 ghz....All other setting....leave it at htc default...Vsync=off and the last option..make sure you choose.Rom MAnage cpu clock or something.......i forget the words...i met trouble letting kernel manage the cpu clock....

hope u r already rooted..if not follow any rooting procedures in general tips and tricks forum..(one click root method was very successful in my wT19i,thanks to senior Nabeel :good
after rooting u can download setCPU or no frills cpu from playstore, to control ur CPU speeed..
very very detailed and easy descriptions regarding cpu control are already in those pages..so just check it out and dont wait simply till some experts reply to ur post..:good:

I use Xperia Ray and
For rooting:
I used eRoot, you literally connect your phone to PC and pres ROOT
Before that you have to enable USB Debugging in Settings->Developer Options.
After four green circles get checked your phone is rooted
For CPU control:
I installed Custom ROM and there i have "no frills CPU control" installed. I don't recommend you to do overclocking or do anything with your processor because you can brick and mess up your device if you don't know what you'r doing.
Also, man already answered, you can download do frills from playstore
If i helped you, please don't forget to hit Thanks button
Cheers
Google link for eRoot, I'm still not able to post links
If you want to decrease lag raise the minimum frequency. Overclocking does absolutely nothing except making your phone hotter and processor life shorter

With overclock you are not 100% right with 1 ghz oc on ics some times i get scroll lagg and apps opens slower and with 1,4 ghz oc phone works perfect.

if you just want to reduce the lag , use SeederEntropy app , It's AWESOME !

CpU control lets u control ur phone cpu and its frequency and volatage.
increasing max freq. will increase speed but consume more battery.and risk of burning is also noteable.
so set it after doing research on ur cpu and itr limit.
and u need to be rooted and have a kernel to accses cpu
