Over Clocking the Eris..anyone else seem to get stuck at 246mhz - Droid Eris Android Development

Since I rooted my phone yesterday, I decided to try an overclocker. I was saddened to see that it never registered mine as overclocking. I am using the Over Clock Widget. My processor runns at 528 and no higher, even when I select 585 or 600. Not a huge deal after I saw what was happening.
When it runs at 528 it runs nice and smooth and after 60 seconds, even while using, it drops to 480. When my screen goes off and then I use my phone again the processor is at 246 and won't adjust back up unless I reset it in the Over Clock Widget.
My question is, do you think this is an error with the Over Clock Widget or a phone issue. The visual performance lag I get existed before the app install and even before I rooted it, because I ran the linpack for android and got 0.807 for my MFLOPS. Then I ran it when it was showing 528, I got a 2.294 MFLOPS. Has anyone else seen this behavior. I always thought it was memory issue with the phone and have always used a task killer to clear up memory and performance was better, but now that I see what seems to be going on with the processor, I don't think it was memory now. When I reset it to 528 this phone runs smooth but as soon as it clocks down, back to lag and slow response.
Is there another app that would be setting my processor down that I'm not aware of? My next step is to wipe and reset the phone and run the linpack test and see what happens. I wanted to get thoughts before i do this though. Sorry this is so long.

some one help this poor fellow out... you need to read some stuff before making posts like this

I read alot! This is my first time trying to overclock so before purchasing a more than likely better over clocking app, I want to know if anyone else has seen this using other over clockers. I have read many people over clockign the Eris getting speeds of around 700mhz, but mine won't hit over 528 as mentioned.
The Original Eris Overclocking:THREAD HERE Didn't mention any of this if you might have been refering to that thread.
Was that menat to be helpfull. I searched all across XDA and found not notable information on this. I read what I could but nothing that mentions what I have described above. If you have a link that has some information on this issue, please post. Looking for some feedback though still.

During your overclocking search on xda, did you happen to come across the setCPU thread? The app that you have to pay for on the market that is free there for xda uers? Search setCPU.
Also, most roms are already oc'd @ 710 without any app at all to control it.

he's more than obviously running the stock 2.1 rooted with an oc widget!
relax, flame off boys.
if you want to overclock there are several roms that are set to overclock by default(easiest method)
or you could flash a new kernel if you want to stay stock(not so easy for a new guy method)
and then there is always the i want to know whats going on write my own kernel method(much less easy then any other method listed)
if you want the stock feel only with all the root perks try plain jane. and as for posting a new thread like this feel free to PM me at any time before putting yourself out on a limb for the boys to jump on you im glad to help anyone avoid catching the heat/ informing ANYBODY

Yep thanks for the response guys. I am running stock. Just freaked me out when I saw that ahppening. Thought I might have had a screwed up phone. I will PM next time Sj. Thanks..still reading though. SetCPU did bring up more than just using overclocking which pointed more towards kernel rewrites and custom roms.

Well, the thread is for a particular rom, so, everyone should have same default for the rom, check google if your that curious

I don't notice more heat than usual. I only notice heat when charging and it's from the battery. Battery life is better than with stock settings. I use SetCPU, no profiles, ondemand governor and ben39_nobfs_noCC_no-whining kernel.

is yours stable at 748 if you run the setcpu stress tester for a minute or two?
if so then that's cool - I might have to try that speed too. I know mine locks up instantly at 780mHz more or less, but solid as a rock at 730. I have a feeling I tried 748 and it slowed to a crawl in the stress test and became really unresponsive yet not fully locking up... which to me makes that speed much worse than keeping it a little slower with 100% stability.
EDIT: stress testing 748 right now and it's still working ok... so maybe I stress tested a higher speed instead? running at basically 750mHz is freakin amazing for our little heroes if we can keep them running like that for the next couple of years
update: stress tested my phone at 748mHz results: lasted for 112725 ms before I exited the test with no errors! This little hero is so amazing!
EDIT: whoops - just reset itself LoL.... damn, I hope it boots up ok since I got cocky and set it to boot with the 748 top speed.... damn...
But I'll try it again - you've got me curious now
I have not stress tested the device but it runs stable for a couple of days now. No reboots and no lockups. The devices are somehow different some cannot run at 748 others can. Mine is even stable at 768Mhz but I i suffer less battery life with that setting, so I leave it 748 and everything is ok.
Dexa can you link me that kernel? I'm running ben39_nobfs_no-whining kernel clocked at 738mhz stable with stress testing and I'm curious about the noCC part that you're running. Thanks!
Ah never mind I found it; there was an updated version.

[Poll] Phone Overclocking

So, as the title says this is a poll about phone over clocking.
Who's phone is capable of overclocking and who's isn't?
My goal is to find out if there is a way to tell if you can overclock or not based on the phones s/n.
Procedure:
So pick the proper answer on the poll, then if you could please make a post saying whether you can or cannot overclock along with your s/n.

mine does 768..without a hitch.. and doesnt get hot either..will post the sn when i can check my phone.
Example post/my results
I cannot and my serial number is HT03GHF05302 JV002-00 D.
my hero can, yes
I tried several methods of OCing, and finally found one that works for me on another site. I'll PM it to you since I don't know what the rules are on posting links to other sites here.
In short, yes I can, but only using a certain method.

been oc since Toast released his kernel, but I do still get the random fc on incoming calls once or so a week. its annoying but if the call was important they leave a message. The difference in speed is worth it.

D3fault sent me the link and now I can OC up to 710 (768 freezes me). Before he sent me the zip file for the OC stuff I could not run any OC ROM's, no overclock widget, or setcpu. Now I can run overclock widget (LWP flies now) and setcpu. Still can't get all OC'd ROM's to load but it is worlds better than it was.
Lastly, I do get some heat though, oh well.
Here is the link for those who can't get their hero to overclock, try this (courtesy of D3fault, not me). Download and add to your SD, flash, download overclocking program of choice (I really like the OC widget in the market) and done.

I can over clock, have been overclocked and remained on for over a day now. Battery temperature is 24.7 and thats under constant texting and web-browsing throughout the day. Ive downloaded a couple apps as well.
S/N=HTO2SHF05245 B
Ummm, why do you want my S/N #??? My hero is oc'ed an loving it.. depending on what rom i use that day..some get hot, some FC some things...but a few are flawless fer me with a lil tweek here an there
Overclocked to 710 (too squemish to get the higher kernel) and though it sucks through battery like no tomorrow, and the fact that... well.. it didn't speed any lag in the os itself, games and graphics work a hell of a lot quicker!
ROM - Bittersweet v1.2/stock radio/using DialerOne/LauncherPro
Kernel - Toast-godmode OC .29 kernel for DamageControl/based roms
Neocore:
1.5 - 12fps
2.1 - 24/28fps
w/oc kernel - 30/32.8fps
@lokipipin, the OC wants to find if there is a correlation of phones serial number differences to the freq. of people who can't overclock (i.e. it could be a revision, or even a ****ty batch of pcbs or something, and that could be tracked by s/n)

Well, there's not much i can do with your serial number that will harm you, so don't worry. But i'm looking to find a correlation between serial numbers and chip revisions, which would in turn let us know based on serial number if you can OC and etc.
We did this with the PS3 world a long time ago and it was pretty helpful, i'm surprised no one did it sooner.
And only based off the two that i have already, i can say that maybe the D batch was manufactured with lower quality chips. But that's only based off of two results, just imagine if i had more to compare.

Obviously the actual credit for that goes to person who posted it over at Android Central, beezy420. It's worked for me and several others so it's worth a shot if nothing else works for you.
I flashed it to my rooted stock 2.1 and it worked, so give it a shot.
yes my hero is OC'ed with 710
So far I have only tried to OC my Hero once. I did it with Zen's MT3G ROM and it worked, but it definitely created some heat. I think with that one it was OC'd at something like 691. Like I said, phone worked, but it DEFINITELY heated up a LOT more than normal. I can't easily access my s/n right now, so I'll have to update this post when I can.
I can OC to 787 or higher. Been running OC since day one of toast first release 1-2months ago. I have made a few kernels for myself with 787 and once with one a step higher, all booted fine with no reboots.

Overclocking and still only getting 540

I apologize if something like this has already been posted. Fel free to just point me to another thread. I have rooted my phone and installed the overclock widget. I also installed quadrant and ran the benchmark, but even with overclocking, I am only seeing a result around 540. Any ideas?
did you flash a kernel that allows for overclocking? Just installing the overclock widget isn't going to allow your phone to overclock. You need a kernel with the instructions added. There are some in the development forum, but it looks as of right now they break the cameras and perhaps the Wifi.

New Aria user here...

Hello there XDA I just switched to the Aria from the Captivate. I am new to Android modding, so please bear with me.
I like the phone, It doesnt bother me losing screen space. However it is a bit slow with the 600 MHZ processor.
So if there are some people kind enough to guide me to/through the following it would be appreciated.
1. I would like to overclock it a bit, maybe to 800.
2. General performance tweaks
3. Get rid of Att bloatware
4. Root ( z4root is not in the market anymore and ATT disables side loading.)

Hey Joshua, being new to the Aria as well (less than a month), I haven't looked into overclocking it... but I am running CM 6.1 RC 2, what do I need to do to start overclocking?
Install SetCPU to overclock. I wouldn't go over 825mhz as it starts getting unstable.
As for rooting, search for posts by user asiancuta. He did a really good write up that included a key point I didn't see anywhere else. It's titled NOOBZ: easy guide to rooting your aria.... Read all instructions, and make sure you understand it first.

In the other overclocking thread (or overcloking as the OP spelled it ) several people posted that they were running at 864... what type of instability is likely? Also, doesn't overclocking HAVE to have some sort of adverse effect? Like reduced reliability or an increased likelihood of hardware failure? If there are no adverse effects, why would HTC not set the CPU higher from the factory?
I want to try it, but I feel like I pushed the limits of my comfort zone just by rooting and installing CM...

I always lean on the side of caution when it comes to overclocking a phone. I don't want to fry the processor since I can't replace it as easily as one on a computer.
Processors are never set from the factory to run at their fastest.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
While it might seem odd since all these phones have the same hardware they don't all respond the same to overclocking. Some people can do 864. I can't even get my phone to do anything over 825 and even 825 gives me issues. I like to keep mine between 768-787. Over doing it can cause damage and shorten the life of the processor but keeping it around 800 is probably safe as long as you moniter temps. Heat is the real enemy here. Manufacturers are trying to balance cost, reliability, battery life. Our little phone use a smaller battery and so a lower clock speed keeps the phone running longer. And the aria is a mid range phone, they don't want it to be faster than the more expensive phones. Also Higher clock speeds will drain your battery faster. At 768 the phone is noticeably snappier and the battery drain over stock isn't even noticeable.
Huh. That's good to know, Callmearia. However I don't even know where to start on any of this. I've never 'flashed' a phone or anything like that before.

This is a really good guide explaining how to root your phone and install a custom recovery, Clockwork, with which you can flash ROMs, make backups, and a bunch of other stuff:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788737
You will still not be able to sideload apps just by rooting though. You will need to flash a ROM in order to do that. Check out the Android Development section, it is all there.

I think most people can hit 864 now using CM6.1 RC2. I think some tweaks were made to allow it. Before I was only hitting 825mhz or 844mhz when I ran in to stability problems... but now I have none. Or, it could be due to the fact it's colder here now.

Take in mind that CM has more customizable features, INCLUDING OVERCLOCKING. Liberated doesn't.
Place the .zip on your SD card. Enter clockworkmod recovery by holding down the volume down button after restarting phone. Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache. Go to install zip from Sdcard. Pick the file. It should install. wait, and reboot and continue.
Customize it to your liking. Download apps/widgets

That's probably true. I haven't tried going over 825 since way back with dumfuqs kernel.

So I've got some time at the moment to work on the vibrant again, so I figured I'd ask you guys a question.
What are you guys wanting out of the vibrant?
I'm not really one to go for the latest and greatest buzz word feature like "Linaro build" or "optimized build prop," etc.
lengthy posts are encouraged, tell me what you still want out of this device. What do you use it for? What do you want to use it for? Etc.
Like I said, not looking for "gimme 500MB ram" or " an updated 2.3 kernel", I wanna know what user experience your looking for.

Point if the question was missed, it's not about faults. Also there are very talented individuals working on the GPS issues. I cannot test GPS as mine no longer works. I want to know not just for me but also the talented Devs working on the vibrant, what ideas do you guys have for improving the Android experience, just in this case I happen to be gearing it toward the vibrant as I won't be working in anything else myself. That doesn't mean it's faulty, there is always room for improvement.
Anyway...not monitoring this thread anymore....Idgaf anymore and people not gonna answer :3

ECOTOX,
Just in case you do monitor this thread Ill give you a request. Ive built a couple of Froyo ROMs now, and plan to stick with Froyo for some time (at least until the EU error fixed)
That said I usually package the Bali 18.8.UV kernel with them. My favorite Froyo kernel is the DMZ kernel.

What set your work apart is the fact it could stepclimp in 100mhz increments. My phone pukes at anything over 1100mhz. Its has the smartass governor (the one I want) that works perfectly. It is smooth, quick, and almost perfect for my needs. Ive only packaged it with one of my ROMs due to the lack to stepclimbing. Here is a request:
Ive tried up to 3 different overclock / volting programs. Tried to set it manually via init script, but the kernel has 2 stock settings: 500mhz / 1000mhz. If I I overclock to 1100mhz I only get three settings: 500/1000/1100. Is there any way you could get a 200mhz in there?
That said your git is available. I don't know how but I guess I could try and build my own based off your source / patches. You kinda sounded like you wanted to help/work some on the T959. With the EU error we have more folks coming back to Froyo every day. Froyo is not dead if I have anything to say about it -
Thanks for your time (I if read this)

GPS is primarily due to inadequate or faulty hardware design. We have pushed the limits of trying to fix it with software guys.
I personally would love more battery life. I truly cannot get more than 45 minutes of screen time in ICS.

How about intergrating more RAM?

Lol happened to be browsing the forum for info and saw you posted here.
I'll make you a kernel, but I'm not 100%sure I'm sticking with the 100mhz steps for my own release but I'll make you one specifically. I might, but I want to get voltage control working with 100mhz steps, I also gotta work on keeping the gpu clocks more stable.

I would be in your debt sir. Thanks for your time.
I just wanted to say thanks for the great work on DMZ, ECOTOX. It has surpassed Overstock as my kernel of choice, but I had one quick question/request. Is it an issue with the kernel or with a particular ROM for some functions to get a little quirky when you start to overclock into the 1.2Ghz range? Whenever I set the CPU ceiling to 1.2Ghz the long press functions on the haptic buttons of the Vibrant would become flakey. I read that's fairly common with overclocking, but was curious who the culprit might be.
Not knowing anything about how scalers/governers can be implemented, what would the chances be to get something like Smartass v2 or a few more options on a new Froyo kernel? I liked messing around with them when I was running Sub-Zero on ICZen to find that happy medium of battery life vs performance.
I say a Galaxy S III themed gingerbread ROM. Anyone?
