Earlier today I overclocked my EVO 3D's CPU to 1.8 GHz, and in the Main tab, it's showing 1728 MHz like it should, but if I go to Info > Time in State (shows time spent in each speed), for some reason 1728000 is not showing up at all. Has anybody else noticed this? I'm wondering if I actually didn't overclock it or if there's an issue with SetCPU.
Do you have profiles set? Check your battery?
Hmmm. I just noticed the same thing. I think its just setcpu. Benchmarks are completely different when OC'd vs not. I'll see if I can find another tool to track it.

CPU spy is saying the same thing. But OCs are obviously working. I'm guessing that set CPU and CPU spy pull the clock strings from the kernel. Since the OC is enabled via a module (not standard fare) I'm guessing that's why the correct strings are not showing. But again, I'm 100% sure the OC is working fine

Hello all
I have tried to
- Modify gps.inf to point to my region (using adb in recovery)
- flashed 2 different radio firmwares
And still my legend takes anywhere between 4-15 minutes to get a fix. If I get a lock and turn off the gps and then again turn in on within a couple of minutes I get a lock within 20-30 seconds. But if I wait a couple of hours and then turn it on - it is 4-10 minutes all over again. When I finally get a lock it work falwlessly with copilot live.
Any ideas ? I'm aiming for the 5-15 seconds gps fix I see Iphones and several other phones/GPS waches etc. have.
I am running CM 7.0.3
Try CM7.1 RC1, gps works without problems
Remember to leave mobile data on, is needed to
synchronise the phone clock to the ntp server set on gps.conf;
once you have locked your location you may turn data off.

CM7.1 RC1 has a problem rebooting the phone when you turn
wifi on but I get around that by turning wifi on from
Settings/Wireless & networks/Wi-Fi settings
what version of radio do you have ??
7.13.35.05
Wow, CM7 nightly 176 is the bee's knees
I'm sticking to this until the stable 7.1 comes out.
But is the wifi reboot the only problem with the legend ? i have heard that the battery drainage is big.
I went to 7.1 RC to backup my SMS from before my vacation (where I flashed Sense), and went straight to Nightly 176. Oh my goodness!
There were no more WiFi reboots, and the biggest news for me: THE BATTERY DIDN'T DRAIN AS MUCH! IT WAS GREAT! (compared to 7.1 RC and, oh God, Sense) I no longer have to really depend on my second battery to last me the rest of the afternoon...maybe just an hour in the evening now
The battery experiences awesome life in Nightly 176. I would recommend you check it out.
As the title suggests.
Having a very strange issue at the moment where my phone will randomly switch off when it's in deep sleep, then when I've restarted I'll find some of the more recently installed apps have been deleted/uninstalled.
What on earth could be causing this?
Using siyah kernel 2.6.11 and wanamlite rom V7.8 (2.3.6)
Sounds like a to low under volt,(you may not have undervolted)... try neak kernel, its the best by far..
I think that will sort your problem out.
If not then wipe and reflash your rom.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
haven't undervolted at all, and it's set at 200-1200 MHz..
I'm not 100% sure if I had the issue with void echo (kernel I was using before), or an older siyah build but it's definitely possible.
What could explain the uninstalled apps though? it's really bizarre...
I'm going to go ahead and bump this as its happening yet again, but slightly differently as well.
I downloaded a game around 3 days ago and have rebooted once since then (yesterday) and just found that I could not launch the game (got a FC pop-up), but it was actually still installed. I then transferred the game installation to my SD card, and it launched. I then rebooted as I switched back to a different kernel via recovery mode, and now the game is uninstalled (along with at least two other apps I've noticed so far).
What is happening??? Surely someone has an idea.
Hi I got this phone couple of days back. It came flashed with latest Android 4.0.3 (20120608-154131)
I have rooted it using zopoROOTby_Jaynes_android4.0.
It's working fine, but seems the battery life is ridiculous and the battery information is also not reliable, especially after restarting the device
(Sometimes it suddenly decreses a lot and vice-versa).
Also GPS, I tried it out in the open for like 15-20 mins it finds 4-6 sats but DOESN'T lock on.!
And then the market had some incompatible apps, I did the XML trick, didn't work...removed the 5 files again and then gave up, all of a sudden after a restart, market is fully accessible!! (Weird!)
I have backed-up my apps using Titanium free but I want to install CWM recovery. I do not know the exact procedure to follow for the same.
I just want to have the CWM recovery and not want to flash whole ROM again...How to do it???
Also please give me any important suggestions, tips if you have regarding this phone.
Thank you!
Anyone have anything to say?

Is the phone going in deep sleep? (install cpu spy to check). This could be your battery problem. WiFi/3G/Bluetooth and some apps can keep the phone from going into deep sleep. You can try to edit build.prop to help it go into deep sleep.
The gps - theres some things you can edit in gps.conf and secgps.conf to get a faster fix (like changing time servers and how a-gps works).

Thanks for your helpful reply! I installed CPU Spy and here's what I found!
Seems, it's keeping at 1001 Mhz all the time!! Am I right??
Are there any other ways around it than editing system files??
Thanks again!! About GPS I got it to work today, albeit not accurately...

Yep, looks like it is staying at 1ghz, you can install an app like setcpu to manage the cpu frequency. You will probably be limited by the kernel when it comes to governors (no undervolting either).
If you are not comfortable editing the gps.conf/secgps.conf there are apps for that I think. But it is quite easy with a file manager (root browser for example), the gps.conf tweak is to change the " NTP_SERVER= " to the closest server to where you reside from this site :
http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/
For example if it says NTP_SERVER=0.europe.pool.ntp.org , (edit: noticed you live in India, so you would do it like this):
NTP_SERVER=1.in.pool.ntp.org
NTP_SERVER=0.asia.pool.ntp.org
NTP_SERVER=2.asia.pool.ntp.org
If you want to see more on these gps tweaks(I would just do the time server tweak since it works on all phones, I'm not sure if the secgps.conf tweak works with your phone), check out this thread (it's been updated at the bottom of the first post) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320626
I'm not sure about CWM, I think it has to be tailored to the phone itself because of the location of the recovery partition.
Edit2: I noticed in the picture that your phone has 1ghz , 500 mhz 250mhz and 166mhz. You can add a profile to setcpu to set the CPU to max 250mhz while the screen is off for example. This wouldn't fix your deep sleep issue, but would save battery. (Deep sleep is some parts of the CPU turned off, while some parts stay on)
Thanks again! I have set it to 250-1001 ondemand and apply on boot now. But 'deep sleep' is still unused as per CPU spy, Any clues as to how can it be enabled?
About GPS, I can do that. Just that I could live without it for now, but thanks for elaborating it! I will do it tomm. Morn, its 2:39 am.

The deep sleep issue is probably related to some apps keeping the phone on (could be kernel problem also, but I'm not an expert on that so can't say). You can check wake-locks with betterbatterystats. Also, rebooting the phone helps(rebooting after charging also helps I noticed).

Thanks for your reply. I think it is more of a Kernel problem only.
ust found out using Batterystats that As soon as I get a message or notification, It triggers LED light and a WAKE LOCK (Called 'Leds Wakelock' ) Which prevents phone from going into deep sleep, and it remains that way hogging battery! Only solution is to REBOOT and hope you don't get any notification!
BEFORE REBOOT
AFTER REBOOT
If your phone has a cyanogenmod rom (I haven't looked into the popularity of it), there is an option to turn off the LED notification in the cyanogenmod settings. Does Zopo release the source code for the kernel / rom?
I read in the other thread about the phone having issues when not in the performance governor, that is a shame, maybe the voltage is adjusted lower at lower frequencies causing the reboots.

I don't know whether it is cyanogenmod (I don't even know what that is..) But my phone doesnt have ANY option regarding that. But
Here's a good thing, since I restarted to take screen shot I've had several notifications LED flashes, and the 'LEDS Wakelock' hasn't reared it's ugly-head!
ALSO I have again set the Governor to 'On demand' and now it seems doing better no Hang up for a good time played AB space. going good!
I think that LEDS Wake lock was root of all troubles. Will have to keep a lookout for it.
Thanks a lot for your guidance!
Have you come up with a solution that can kill that wakelock other than reboot? From my observation that leds wakelock only happen when the battery's going low (<15%) and it won't go away after that.
Dirty solution is to patch framework-res.apk and modify the level of battery low notification.
I am using a newer custom ROM 100500 v2 and no longer have any issues with wake locks!

Well guys i installed SETCPU right after rooting, set the limit cpu frequency values according to my choice (UC) but to mu surprise it still peaks at 1.4ghz. I'd set the valut to 200min 1000max with pegasis governor but it doesn;t work. It never happened on any previous device i rooted. Already tried rebooting, nothing happens. So what can be the cause? I guess CF Auto Root just installed the root binaries bit not the busybox. Can it be the problem?
Does your kernel support OC?
Well bro i don't want to overclock and it's stock, so i guess it doesn't support overclocking. Besides, i want to underclock it(UC). But it doesn;t work even my profiles like battery less than, charging etc doesn't work either. Setcpu shows the limit defined values but cpu keeps running at 1.4 ghz
flash a custom kernel
Thanks for the suggestion but i just wanna keep it stock to avoid any problems whatsoever. It's just that setcpu always worked even on stock kernnels. Already tried on S2 and my ace, it worked great.
