Overclock still on 1000? ICS leak.

[jwilly216]

It's not the rev or the Bogo. As of right now it is a complete mystery.

I ran Quadrant and i got this. How in the world can i switch to 1.2?

Here's a complete guess, maybe its a bug in the kernel...maybe Moto ported the RAZR kernel and for some reason some people get razr clock speeds.

Id expect that if it were a bug as you describe then all phones would be universally 1.2Ghz. Unfortunately, nobody knows what that "some reason" is.

It's pretty obvious that the hardware supports 1.2Ghz since lots of people are talking about how great 1.2Ghz is but nobody is talking about how unreliable their phone is due to the "overclock".

Doesn't matter. Phone is now .2Ghz awesomer.

CPU clockspeed, Bogo MIPS and whatnot

Oh wow, I guess it has to do with BogoMIPS then, because I'm a Rev3 at 1.0ghz, but my BogoMIPS is only at 1592.70.

With any luck, maybe the next leak or the official release will unlock the rest of our CPUs that are having issues.

So far the issue of 1.0Ghz vs. 1.2Ghz cannot be tied to CPU revisions or hardware versions. There have been posts from all almost every possible variation of battery type, CPU version, Harware version(on label under battery) update method, root method, cache/data wipe etc. it seems with every possible idea as to the cause of not getting 1.2Ghz, someone posts that they have that and still got 1.2. I dunno, it's a puzzle so far. It may take someone who's able to go line by line through some of the update to see what check failed on the units that only reach 1.0Ghz (like mine) and eliminate it. On GB '.905 I was using kernel Modules to overclock at a stable 1.25 Ghz so this really does suck. Oddly enough, even at 1.0Ghz I'm getting 2700-plus quadrand scores which are better that I used to get OC'd at 1.25. On the other hand my linpack scores are a lot lower on ICS at 1.0Ghz than previously OC'd at 1.25Ghz, so go figure.

As to Bogo MIPS, the reason for the variation is that the CPU speed varies from 300Mhz to 1Ghz in steps of 300,600,800 and 1000. Under load it goes to 1000, When not under load speed can dip to as low as 300 to save power. Bogo MIPS is a calculated figure based on the step or clock speed your device is at when Quadrant launches, and it's roughly 2 x step speed. That why some folks are getting Bogo MIPS figures under 600 up to just under 2000. They correlate to the 300,600,800 and 1000 Mhz steps.
Those lucky enough to be able to MAX at 1.2 will probably get up to just under 2400 Bogo MIPS at maximum.

For those with 1000. Could we overclock with Setcpu to 1200? Has anybody done that yet?

 

[altspeed]

Also...has anyone tried to stepdown the max to 800 and just use the same scripts that we used with the projekt opptimizer to address the ics kernel directly?

 

[altspeed]

OK tried it...symsearch script won't run...it just loops and you have to power down to kill it...without symsearch i don't think the chmod script can run

Appreciate you taking a leap of faith on that one, I sure didn't have the balls to try it.

Guess we'll just wait and see what happens with the official ICS OTA whenever it rolls out. If I'm still stuck at 1 Ghz, I'll go straight to Verizon and demand a new phone because I didn't get what I flippin' paid for. Angry customer rants are great like that.

I have to agree here.

I lucked out and got OC'ed to 1200 with the leak. When I installed SetCPU, it downclocked back to 1000. Wouldn't let me choose 1200.

Did you uninstall SetCPU to check if you still had 1200?

 

[jadesaber2]

Yup. Uninstalled and had to reboot, but I'm back at 1200 now.

Yeah, because you DIDN'T buy a 1Ghz phone at the store, did you? What you're really saying is that since you didn't get something for nothing like everyone else you're upset.

Oh please.
