I think...if someone provide application to get OMAP working frequency around 300MHz, then it could really speed up whole MDA and still the battery will be good enough to provide power for 3-5hours of work :?: :roll:
It can resolve many speed issues and convince many people to use Wizard. So, any ideas, programs...?
(I´am not sure if that is possible for this type of processor...just asking a dumb question)

Immier from Immierisoft (XCPUScaler) is also looking into this. Hopefully, we'll see something from XCPUScaler that overclocks the OMAP850 soon. I'd sure like to see a performance boost on the PDA side of things...
I would like to see an app that would boost for x number of seconds when a program is executed. I don't need to drain the battery after the app is loaded. Perhaps also after a read command is issued, too.
Just my non-programmer thoughts.
Both PHM and XCPUScaler will allow you to push the processor based on laod, so you get more power when you need it, and a lower processor speed when the processor is idle.
Both need to be updated to support the OMAP850, however. We're waiting for that to happen...
Thanks for the info, Chris. I'm a bit new to these devices & thus don't know what all can do what. You just saved me some research!
Thank you all for your responses, I´m more happy now, when I know that PHM will fully support OMAP in next version (which will be available in half month)

Good G-2 Chris - thanks! Now, which will be first out I wonder???.....
the omap definitely can be overclocked. we are just wiaitng for immer or anton.
an overclocker app already exists for omap for plam devices (pah pah), which shows it works:
www.clievideo.com
omap information (just FYI):
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...00&path=templatedata/cm/product/data/omap_850
yet nothing of nothing
Am waiting for over clocking too. i hade to write something so i am posted by email with any further development of the softwares listed.
all i can say is i hope theres no over heating and unstableness.
am sure we should have something soon for cristmas. if not then january sales.
Sorry all: just 'subscribing' to this thread too. Sorry
guys, whilst we are 'twiddling our thumbs' perhaps we could report any apps we particularly want to see improved. I have found all the games I install (even 3d games like Anthelion 2 from pdamill and star wars racer)and TCPMP and hacking tools seem to run fine. The only piece of software that frustrates me is SKYPE low_cpu. Although I hear that the skype team are working on it.
Therefore for me, this is more of a toy then a necessity!
Are there any news regarding overclocking the Wizard?

Hello,
Has anyone tried using XCPUScalar? There is a new version available released today. I'd just like to know your comments if it's worth it, and if this type of application is safe to use.
Poch
I use v2.53 which seems very stable.
I'm not sure how good it is at over-clocking and the real difference this makes yo the XDA's useability.
However, the fact that it can reduce CPU speed depending on need, and therefore extend battery life is quite useful.
From the release notes for 2.6, there are a couple of improvements I'd welcome, such as the ability to set the speed on boot rather than revert to default.
Is it stable...? Did it hardreset anyone?
Last time I tried to overclock a PDA was with one of my Ipaqs... it hard reset... and I never did it again...
Can someone give me enough reasurance to try this new piece of SW?
Thanks,
Chris
started using xcpu scalar last night, and i gotta say, its incredible!
got my xda2 running at 530mhz at the moment
before that i used to use pocket hack master, and was good, but complicated,* plus my xda2 would only run stable at 528mhz*
so i got 2mhz extra lol! ;-)
i highly recomend!!
Thank you!
But... how do you know up till what point is stable... and at what point it hardresets? How do you know you could push it to 530 rather than 500 or 700? You push it until it crashes? You get a warning message?
Sorry if the question is a bit naive :roll:
Thanks,
Chris
The maximum stable frequency for xda2 is 472-530 Mhz.
Where 472 has more benefits in stability and fatest memory clock.
Mine runs good on 530 in Os menu,but freezes instantly in hard processing soft..like Quake,WmPlayer.(it is also like to anaylze if some programs are running in background and don't support these frequencies)
Note: some application like Camera are more sensitive than others to overclocked fr. but personally I did only encontered benefits in Camera app with more fps.
A benchmark reported that in same cases better performance is on 400mhz and 472 max. (on xda2)
Faster overclock will only degrade your performance,but you can try it.. at least you will have to Soft-Reset or Hard-Reset your device,so backu-up first all your data.

There is no 2mhz extra,the real freq. is 528 but approx. to 530
Also Hack Master is recommende for more professional use,because it offer many options like no other overclock application.
I am sure you are interested to read the overclock results:

Has anyone managed to overclock the tytn with pocker hack master or xcpuscalar?
For me hack master freezes the device with every settings and
xcpuscalar only "underclocks". And shows false information about the device being overclocked.
Sorry no help here, its just nice to see a nother person who baught both
Overclocking utilities for the PDA tend to be CPU specific. You'll need a utility that is designed for the Samsung CPU.
But for what overclocking? I am really happy with the current cpu speed

Those progs are supposed to support samsung cpu's.
Not a hundred percent sure about the specifk models,
too lazy to check.
Allthou I remember reading something about samsungs power saving on wm5 resetting the speeds and those two programs developers inadept or unwilling to circumvent that. Im guessing the former.
Since otherwise am betting they would do it.
And yes the speed is great. but overcloking is fun.
can someone enlight me on the definition of the "stacked cpu"???
have been surfing the net but didn't found anything...
Thanking the one in advance

I think it means that the cpu is soldered on the motherboard, you cannot "replace" it like in a normal computer.

I think it means that the cpu has many layers, so the stuff in the cpu is
stacked. Makes the cpu smaller etc.

I read something about what you say: something about first in last out or vice versa. in layer forms yes.
Something to figure out and post in webopedia or something trackable on the net.

Overclocking works fine for me.
I use xcpuscalar in auto-mode with the current settings :
200 mhz - 0-20%
400 mhz - 20-70%
500 mhz - 70-100%
Have had no problems with it - and the 200 mhz saves battery.

Mind running a few benchmarks? And check the speed from somewhere else
then xcpuscalar, it gives false readings.
I wouldn't have any idea how to do that.

Spb benchmark (free) and TCPMP also shows cpu speed, not sure about how reliably, but I guess more then xcpuscalar.
I would not trust xcpuscalars reading, when I tried it, it did too report 500mhz, but other programs showed 400 and benchmarks for 400 and 500 were the same.
The issue about xcpuscalars false readings has been discussed all over the net.
Under Clocking the unit really does not affect its stability, but really does extended the battery life, I have noticed about 40% increase in the battery life, when running the CPU at 200Mhz. :?
Stacked CPU

Has anyone tried PocketHackMaster 4.0 beta?
the beta 4.0 doesn't seem to support overclocking on the TyTN. Allegedly it will on the final version though...
Version v4.13.031 of Pocket Hackmaster has been released 12 Nov. 2006. Have anyone tried it? Thanks a lot!
Never mind. I tried it. Doesn't work. My TyTn needs a soft reset after testing.
i am wondering if there is any possibility to overclock the cpu of the HD as it was possible on old HTC devices with omap processors?
i often found the HD to be very slow and i would like some more speed 9as probably most of us)
would it be adviseble to overclock it?
thanks for any useful info!
would be very cool! i bet htc is running it in a ridicolous safe speed =)
no infos on that matter?
any tech guy with some more experience?
nobody?
i did some research in to the matter, and there are some things that can be changed but i believe its just timeings, at the moment it would appear that you can not adjust the clock speed its self.
Also, changing the timings seemed to have a negative affect on stability, id imagin that whilst the clock speed may be running low, the timings are about as tight as you can get.
anyone tried using Pocket Hack Master yet?
will try it out tonight
I tried it but it didn't work. May not have been the right version perhaps.
It was a few weeks ago so I can't remember what actually happened when I tried it sorry.

can you point it for us? any details about it? would it be dangerous for HD integrity?
just installed it, then bells rang..... ur processor is not supported, looked rubbishw when the app loaded up. all distored, defiantely not meant for our wvga. Soooooo whats this qualcom overclocking software... i will explore google see what i can find.....
id give up, i searched for ages to no avail, i believe the only thing that can we tweaked are various timings but it seems that almost any attempt improve these results in instability and crashing.
I'm not really interested in overclocking, but I saw this thread and remembered I saw somewhere else some info on this subject.
Perhaps this is something to try:

This won't work - the Touch HD has a Qualcomm processor NOT an OMAP
Yes Please let us in on the action
well, i've saw this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=507798&highlight=overclock , but you guys read carefully, its apeears to be no effect, through if it has, every processor u overclock have its life shortened...i've a blue angel, 400 mhz working at a 200~530, xscale processor can do this (change it's frequency accordinto to the necessary) but i wond the Qualcomm ones do the same (according to the post appears to not, but it's no cleary).
everyone may say...so all you said righ now is a load of crap... Thats not, i'm just sharing wat i've discovered until now, since i've gone to blackstone few day ago.
Blackstone is slow?? I'm about to get it in several days. Please enlight me when comparing blackstone with Hermes (currently using). Thanks

Hi Gang!
I started my HTC journey with the original Touch which at the time was an unbelievable device.
I used to have a CPU throttling utility that would underclock the CPU to bare minimum when not in use and would overclock it under heavy usage.
The result was better performance and lower battery consumption.
Does such a software exist for our HD2? Or maybe it's already doing that throttling natively?
If this is available i would like to have this application as well. It would be nice for the small battery pack.
BTW, would they release a new battery with a higher volt/wattage?
Well, for the app if its out there come to us
Been thinking the same and this should have been included in the device in the first place. I believe Toshiba TG-01 has this. Would help improving the quite disapointing battery lifetime. Lousy HTC...

Idk if Toshiba has it, but still i would go for the HTC HD2 because this device is magnificent. It has it all and you can do with it all. If I didn't got a girlfriend I would do the other stuff with it to hahaa
Well fortunately I got one so don't be afraid for some weird news haha..
Well, I'm not here to discuss HD2 shortcomings, although there are always things to improve with *any* things.
Anyways...
I have looked at CPU throttling utilities for the Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU and it appears indeed that the Toshiba TG01 has such utility. It's not clear at this point if it's an OS-level utility and it seems that it needs to be manually set.
I'm new at xda so I'm not sure whether somebody could port that app for our HD2 and automate the throttling...?
I guess if we're able to develop a HSPL for the HD2 then this is doable as well... provided that there is enough interest in it.
Thoughts?
Have you tried nueDynamicClock?

I'm not sure it supports Snapdragon...?
And I'm actually more interested in underclocking/undervolting that overclocking, 1 GHz is plenty fast for me so far

Yea, I guess it might not support 1GHz... But it is intended for only underclocking, not overclocking....
Idk, it'd be interesting to try.

My questions
-Will DosBox work on our wonderful device? I want to play some games like the early Elder Scrolls games.
-If it does, will simple games be smooth or rough as sandpaper?
-Does the DosBox work smoothly on our device?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I'm the author of DosBox Turbo, so I'll try my best to answer your questions. Yes, DosBox Turbo will work fine on your device, and while the Samsing GT-S5360 is a great device overall, it does have the following limitations:
* An ARMv6 (slow) based CPU with no Floating Point
* Only 384 MB of RAM.
While, DosBox Turbo is highly optimized (even for older ARMv6 processors), your best performance will be with an ARMv7 CPU. With a standard single core ARMv7 processor (ie. Cortex A8), you can get around a [email protected] speed.
Having said that, with your slower CPU you can probably expect equivalent to around IBM 386SX (16-25Mhz) speed on your device. Its really hard for me to give you an exact speed, because it varies depending upon the game and many other factors. There are a few tweaks you can do to increase the speed, such as disabling screen scaling, reducing the Audio Frequency and other things, which will probably bump you up a few Mhz. So Elder Scrolls Arena *might* be playable on your phone, though the only way you can be sure is to try it out. If after purchasing DosBox Turbo, and you are not happy with it or just cant get it working on your phone, just shoot me an e-mail and I'd be happy to issue you a refund.
Cheers,
Gene
Woah! The app Dev! xD How do you actually get to know that someone has posted a thread about your app? Are you PM'd by our Mod or something? Cuz this amazes me. xP
Thanks for clarification
@raolemo
An app dev wants his users to be able to use the app he created without problems, so he probably searches questions, like mine

One day maybe DOS Fallout will be playable.
No matter what i do or how i do it i cant seem to cyange my cycles from 5000. I set it at 1000 and as soon as i hit back it shows "dosbox cycles:5000". This happens whether i do it within the program or if i set it manually after enabling manual . Ive even set ctrp and the f11 and F12 keys and no matter what i do it always says cycles:5000. What the actual...?
