Yep, except GPU overclock by me and Ashish94, the true 620mhz and the TurboClock 465T increase ~35% the gaming performance, games like asphalt 8 will run at 8 or 9 fps higher with the Overclock

You can select upto 1.8ghz on the zetsubo kernel , thats fake??

It feels smoother once overclocked.........

I dont believe it, atleast tell me the fake steps
Those kernels heats up and locks up if i set too high cpu clk..... I know it can be overclocked..

i'd suggest you to try lateautumn kernel, it boosts your CPU freq to 1.8ghz and it seems like it worked for me, battery drained so fast tho...

Look, I'm tired from explaining that CPU overcloks are fake, just freaking search about snapdragon 410, the processor is LOCKED, PLL overclock is not possible without external source file help, only Moto g3 osprey have this file, when somebody port's that file to our source, I will be wrong
Also if you don't even know how to overclock a device, how can you say that I'm wrong?

download kernel adiutor and you will have the option there (with the custom kernel applied)

Something useful? Why don't you try arm64 aosp caf by pirej and see how the rom is? we need more people to log some bugs like wifi 10m off, etc

At that time I din't know anything about this phone, becouse I just had buyed it, then I started spending 8hrs in the computer to study kernels, redmi 2, and all related to source, android, etc. Then I started making overclocks, and after 2 weeks of testing I completed my results and overclock was fake.
It's like school or college, you need to study to understand

Which ROM is best to be used with late autumn kernel. When I install late autumn kernel on any ROM ,the camera stops working.

Sounds like a stage I'm currently going through, are there any recommended resources for learning?
The main direction is to reverse the kernel code for the purpose of changing system settings

Gpu overclock? Possible?

Ok guys,i got this idea when i saw gpu overclocked kernels for x1.we all know x1 is an winmo device,and its running android from sdcard.and gpu is really highly overclocked,even up to 1000 +mhz.so,i suppose it could be possible for x8.maybie through modules.or we need to wait for bootloader crack.but,since we have amazing devs,i think it could be done.
Maybie someone could pass this to AnDyX and doixanh,so they could see what can be done.
I read about it in one of the module threads.. Said bl needs to be cracked to OC gpu.
I was expecting this.oo,so we have to wait.or,doixanh can make a module.
Yep This damn bl cracking is in the way of so many possibilities

Unlock more cpu freq ?

I updated the kernel to run 1520mhz on P5110 wifi.
Its running smooth at that with 1.400v
Can more be unlocked ?
Im willing to try find max.
Off topic.... Do you change only kernel, or you flashed compleet aopk rom?

That's already beyond the Max. You can't oc it anymore than what you have. I'm surprised it doesn't lock up and freeze at anything higher than 1.42.

So that is absolute max ?
There is no way in heaven to unlock more, its impossible and no use to ask any more questions at all about it ?
Totally absolute no chance that anyone can do it then...
I was a good overclocker before, soldering voltmods with magnifying glass on gfx and mb and doing GDDR timings optimizations step by step with bios flash for every change.
There was always more even when everyone said you cant do any more.
But as you say i have reached max (even beyond max)
Thank you.
(And no im not trying to be a smartass, i just heard "NO" way to many times to listen...the difference btw 1.0ghz to 1.5ghz is ENORMOUS so i just wanted more)

I'm actually surprised the OMAP hasn't shut itself down with all the clock and voltage protection stuff it has.
Here's the slick sheet for the OMAP 44xx that we run in the tablet: http://www.ti.com/lit/ml/swpt034b/swpt034b.pdf
I couldn't find the actual technical manual for it, but I didn't search hard enough.
Buy a faster tablet.
So its made for 1ghz and above, according to pdf.
So we will see tablets with same hardware running 1.5 and depending on cooling and so on.
it aslo seems to handle alot more then its offering, like 20mp cam and so.
And scott if i wanted the fastest then i would pay alot more, so i rather overclock.
you overclock also so i dont understand your comments at all.
I overclock but..
I'm not asking for more like you.
so i cant ask anything here ?
then this forum sure is not for me!
i will find a more helpful place then, see you.
4430
do we have a 4430 dual core in the tab 2 7" or a 4460 it would be nice if it is the 4460
the OMAP4430 operates at up to 1 GHz, while
the OMAP4460 operates at up to 1+ GHz

Got the play to 2.1GHz

Title says it all
Edit and a 15MHz GPU overclock and should I go higher maybe 2.2GHz

Water cooled would be soo awesome !
there is a theory by turgot, that increasing a faktor wont increase the outcome at a specific point anymore. therefore i would be really interested how your play handles games at that oc. not only a benchmark, something like a video where its possible to see occouring errors, if there are any
this is great work you did, and it may allows some modification to the play.yes im thinking about cooling..even if it wont be that portable anymore. thanks for your help
2.3GHz
I'm currently going where no developer would go before my customized kernel has 26 CPU frequinces all up and a max of 2.3GHz
But without the GPU overclock and a 8mb GPU memory vs Lupus and dooms 4mb
i cant go even more than 1.6ghz
Needed an extra cooler solution and an powerful battery, like Mugen 3600mAh, to maintain this level of OC for diary use. Would be amazing!

Wait, what? Lupus Kernel offers increased amount of VRAM?
IMHO this is perfectly fine if you don't care so much about the device, otherwise you would be crazy. OC'ng so high will eventually cause in-reversable damage. I know what your doing so no need for me to ask questions But even if its stable for you it wont be for others all depends on the chip and as we know each is different. Also even if people don't use 2.x ghz frequencies tend to jump to the highest for a mili second if even on boot, causing problems with the device actually booting.
Well just my 2 cents on OC'ing...

What about 2 cents on this VRAM apparently being doubled?
At the end of the day its not GMEM which is essentially like a processors cache. Our chip has 256kb of it. But the allocated VMEM, would upping it to 8MB provide any sort of performance increase?

Can you post some benchmarks for the CPU? And also tell us more about the VRAM... Did it make any difference?
I believe that the Xplay has good chances of reach 2.0GHZ, running fine, provided has an good thermal solution. In my test, the games run fine for some minutes, before start overheat. Needed of somebody to build an custom cooler, then, make some tests. In my opinion, the safe clock, for sure, is not only 1.6GHZ. Only for default cooler.

I CBF screen shooting but CPU at 2.1 is around 20% faster then 1.6 and the GPU is around 25% faster with a 2600 3d score in antutu without adrenobooster
I know it's kind of not allowed to redistribute this but can u upload the kernel and send it ti me (PM) cus I will take some screens ans my play can handle 2GHz fine but bootloops when gaming after about 30-50 minutwa (depends on intensity of game!)

Kernel/ROM etc.... features that we need

this thread is meant for everyone thats making a kernel or ROM so you know what features that everyone wants
The things we need
ROOT duh
ALL-F2FS FS support
NTFS FS support
CPU Governors
GPU Governors
GPU overclocking
CPU overclocking
RAM overclocking if we can
Dual boot ROM/Kernels and 64bit Ubuntu
any more ideas?

PIE control
Most important one.. Stability. Needs to be stable, and have a few minor tweaks, it all depends on how the stock kernel is though.. HTC Stock kernels tend to be pretty sweet anyway and just need a few features added IMO.
Have been told that the CPU is way under clocked @2.3,GHz and could handle 3.00ghz easy! Note that this is a rumour, but if true wow!
Really looking forward to it now!
Um everything you listed is stuff that is the norm for custom kernels. Wonder if well see Franco or faux or flar here...im still really on the fence.

At the price probably only if the device is donated. I'm sure the size is off putting for them.
USB-OTG and USB-Audio support would be stellar (if not included as standard)
:good:
I would love to see the GPU and CPU overclocking as well as over/under volt for both for maximum tuning capability. The other things I would like to see though are RAM and bus overclocking access since with so many GPU cores if we get to overclocking we may need some more in those areas too so we can take full advantage of the higher core MHz

But i do have my doubts
because what happened to the shield tablet

Overclocking snapdragon 800.

So I was wondering about the truth behind the risks of frying your cpu through overclocking or the chip itself degrading faster over time, and if there are such risks do they apply to a simple 2.5 ghz overclocking ?
There isn't any risk like that, unless you are using extremely high voltage, or are at terribly hot place.
I have tested all the overclockable kernels, and haven't found a single one which is steady at 2.6 or 2.8 GHz. Only Faux's kernel at 2490 MHz is stable.
Don't be scared, there's no risk.
PS: I personally use Performance governor by the way, so the CPU is always at max frequency, against all advice I keep using that for past three years, never had a problem, and you can understand where I live the temperature reaches extremely high in summer, so...

That's actually comforting I too am using fauxclock and I live in Egypt so the temperature gets pretty high here, but I'm constantly monitoring the cpu's temperature so I will give the 2.5 ghz overclock a try for a while and see how it goes.

Yeah do that. Just to see if the OC is stable run that damn Antutu benchmark. If the device doesn't reboot/stuck then OC is stable

Ha ha. Good. That's on Faux right? I got almost same score (44.7k) when I was checking.
Now if you want more then flash one of those 2.6 or 2.8 GHz kernels, and do the test, and message me if Antutu finishes the benchmark even once

If you want higher you should try out Ultimate Kernel. Although it is removed from XDA, you can still find it on some foreign language site. It's the highest and most stable OC kernel I have used (3.0GHz).

Thanks a lot for the link mate. Downloaded and flashed v73, but I can't get it past the stock clock rate of 2265 MHz! I mean I have tried to set higher frequency than that in S Tweaks, even downloaded Trickstar, SetCPU, but the it'd just stuck at 2265 MHz! I can go lower than 2265 but not higher! Weird!

I think it comes with 2 apps for customization. You apply frequency on the first one and open the other and select apply changes. I'm not sure if it was this kernel or was it AEL. Lol. Anyways good luck. Maybe your ROM doesn't support a certain "stuff". I'm sorry but I really forgot about those terminologies. You can read up on the closed thread if you want. I'm sure you'll have a clue or on that link I gave you. *Google Translate ftw*
