these phones uses the same processor but on different frequencies.
so my question is: is it safe to use daily the cpu at 1.5ghz of DHD ?

Some phones can handle a higher o/c than others. I've been running mine at 1.2ghz for months now with no issues. I can increase that but I've never felt the need, although many others do ;-)

Yeah, i think 1.5ghz wouldnt be any problem for most/all devices.
With my Milestone back then, which had 550 mhz, i personally was running between 800-1000 mhz, alot others were running even 1200 mhz there.
But on DHD; i personally would do (max!) 1.2 or 1.3 ghz, because this is absolutely enough for most Roms to be smooth.

the max i overclock for daily basis is 1.2Ghz but when i tried 1.8Ghz back when lee released his nutter kernel my phone froze.
But i did read somewhere the cpu can be overclocked to 1.5Ghz without any issues but over that people do get some problems.

No!
Using any CPU frequency that is not default ( underclocked or overclocked ) requires testing and manipulating the various variables. The CPU needs to be in sync with the GPU and the other parameters. Needs modifications in the kernel itself. The device is not made to run at those frequencies. You will burn your device, sooner or later.

overclock sprint hero question

I have Aloysius 2.1 running ROM 2.1
it has a build in overclock using
SetCPU for Root Users [1.5.4] 05/24/2010
it is overclocked to 710 max when demand is placed on it
245 min when there is no demand
if in another rom (say damagecontrol rom) the overclock program setcup 1.5.4 suggests a maximum of 528 for the Hero - not 710 (as is built into the Aloysius ROM.
Question is - will this 710 overclock speed hurt the sprint HERO processor?
currently - one day of trial - this rom runs very fast but i do not want to hurt the phone
clarify the overclock question
I have a SPirnt HERO running Aloysius 2.1
it has a build in overclock using SETCPU
I assume it is SetCPU for Root Users [1.5.4]
it is overclocked to 710 max when demand is placed on it
245 min when there is no demand
if in another rom (say damagecontrol rom of resh rom) the overclock program SETCPU 1.5.4 when installed by me suggests a maximum of 528 for the Hero - not 710 (as is built into the Aloysius ROM)
Question is - will this 710 overclock speed hurt the sprint HERO processor?

Our MSK chip set has been placed in several phones and over clocked in several phones. As far as I or any of the devs are aware, it has never hurt it. 710mhz is well in the bounds of "safe". I think toast had it up to almost 800 before he started having big issues.
That being said, you are placing extra strain on the processor - that means it won't last as long as it would normally. At least in theory.
You drive your car 25 mph like a grandma all the time, you get 300,000 miles out of it. You drive it 500 mph all the time, it'll only last 2,000 miles. YMMV Pun intended.

HTC G1 SetCpu only on 528 it becomes not higher !?

Hello i have a HTC G1 with Android 1.6 i downloaded SetCpu 2.10(newest)
but it becomes not higher ?
I tried also custom frequence it still not work
Kernel Version:
2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37
Build Number:

Did you bother to stop and consider that maybe 528 is that chip's maximum frequency?

i saw in youtube many people who get the g1 to 650 MHZ
and there is a video he got his g1 to 850 MHZ wow but i cant do it why?
the kernel.
you're using a kernel with a max freq of 528.
don't be tempted and believe everything you see on youtube. ;-) an 850 kernel isn't likely to run stable enough and get you decent uptime.

what is a kernel ?(sorry im a noob
how can i flash my kernel..?
The kernel is core part of any operating system. You will need to find an android build (read: ROM) that incorporated a kernel that will allow you to crank your MHz up to the desired level.
I also recommend that you be careful when overclocking. I am sure you already know you run the risk of frying your phone.
The maximum stable overclock I've been able to get is 614Mhz (with the ocassional random reboot) and 592Mhz completely stable. How high you can clock your processor is completely dependent on what kernel you're running. I'm using CM6.1 right now and the kernel limits the clock to 614Mhz max. I think about 640Mhz is the highest you can go without making it unusable, but you might have a hard time finding a current kernel that lets you overclock that high.
And anyways if you're looking for more performance the CPU isn't the bottleneck. It's the RAM. You should look into swap or compcache to get more performance out of your G1.
592 has been my best stable speed as well with Froyo and now with GingerYoshi 595 is fastest stable for me. Can clock higher but then random reboots and fc's

[POLL] Overclocking, How far does you galaxy Go and S stay stable? without rebooting

How far is your Galaxy s stable?
mine just hits the 1.1GHZ, beyond that only crashes no matter which voltage i Use. please Use the poll so we have a good picture of what the average galaxy s is capable of..
also comment which version of SGS you are using and 8gb/ 16 Gb etc..

PS this thread should be moved to General
had mine at 1.54ghz running MIUI with tk glitch kernel.
was amazingly fast, but my phone got hot quick, i dont like OC'ing i feel it may do more harm than good in the long run.
others may and will disagree but thats my opinion on it
Mine with 1.3GHz OC and some Undervolt is perfectly stable.....

Agree with the chef ...
Although I can overclock to 1540MHz it does get hot and Im sure it will do damage in time ..
1300MHz is a great overclock ...
It will be interesting to see what my SGS 2 can be safely overclocked to
1.2 GHz seems ok for me - with UV
Doesn't really get hot.
Running mine @ 1440 MHz with MIUI but i think I can go higher if I want . I have the 8 GB version
1.3 and very stable and with great performance both q score caffiene mark and in daily use
Which voltage are you using?
Mine seems to freeze on voltages above the 1.3V,
above the 1.2 GHZ always freezes. I,m using darkeys 9.5 Rom.
someone some advice which rom is the best for OC, (just for benchmarking) for once.

Mine can handle up to 1.3-1.4ghz
Im getting stable speeds of 1.7ghz. Im on watercooling though..

1.4ghz is my max for full stability. 1.5ghz works fine (no reboots), but the CPU occasionally gives an invalid result during calculations, e.g. during benchmarks like linpack, results can sometimes be inaccurate; 1.44ghz also seemed to work, but I picked 1.4ghz max for longevity/reliability.
UV Values are:
100mhz - 200mV UV (750mV)
200mhz - 150mV UV (800mV)
400mhz - 100mV UV (950mV)
800mhz - 75mV UV (1125mV)
1ghz - 50mV UV (1200mV)
1.2ghz - 50mV UV (1300mV)
1.3ghz - 0mv UV (1400mV)
1.4ghz - 50mV UV (1400mV)
Max UV were found by starting from 100mhz Max frequency, decreasing UV until stable for 5 minutes of software decoding of 720p MKV, and then increasing Max frequency one step. Occasionally the previous step UV needed to be decreased by 25mV to obtain a stability at the next frequency step.

Mine is stable at 1.5 Ghz with a 200mv undervolt, but only if I select it as a single frequency.
For multiple frequencies, I was stable at 1.4Ghz on an earlier kernel, but it's slightly unstable now... I'll probably try tweaking the governor.
I'm on a i9000m using tk-glitch's V9D-VC and CM7 #11 build.
By the way, shouldn't this thread be in general?
I am on MIUI v3 and CM7_SGSMTD_platypus-kernel_20110522_r0_quorra-prer11_test4-r2 kernel.
I don't use undervolt settings and 1.2 Ghz is fine for me; above values generally don't work stable.
By the way, 1.2 ghz is almost enough for all games and operations, I did not run into that pushing apps for high oc's.
Regards.
1.44GHz, extremely smooth and stable!
Never seen an option to go above 1.54, but 1.54 works flawlessly so I've chosen 1.5 in the poll. (16gb i9000)

It's not the ROm it's the KERNEL who can oc, i adviise using XAN, hardcore kernels in 2.2. or gto's ginger kernel at 2.3 they are stable and 1280 i guess it's the limit not to warm up
But a questin what send me an undervoltage config, to 1300 if the gpu games work for someone at 1300mhz

[Q] Overcome-Hermes, 1.4GHZ OC stable only when in UV -75mv

I was using stock for my gtab and lately installed Overcome-Hermes.
I noticed that the 1.4ghz oc using setcpu is unstable and often hangs in games especially "Dungeon Defenders" using the default assigned voltage of 1500mv
I played with the voltages for a while and found out that the 1.4ghz OC is stable when i set it at -75mv which is about 1425mv.
Is this normal? Aint the higher clock supposed to require more voltage?
Device does not freeze up, not even once so far, when i undervolt 1.4ghz to 1425mv.

i think its normal since it states here: http://overcome.mimzo.com/?page_id=68
"THOUGH FOR HERMES, BEST STABLE SETTINGS SO FAR: -100mV AND BELOW."

My experience with gingerbread UV/OC states that the higher the OC the lower the UV. However, seems that some UV is necessary for OC; especially for 1.4Ghz.
My setting for that frequency is the same; -75Mv and seems stable for a couple of days.
And yes and no, although higher frequencies need more power higher voltage is not a must.
Last note and 2 cents; if it is stable do not bother )
Something is not right here, with Froyo I had -200mV at all speeds - stable withouth problems, but with GB and -100mV the tab already unstable at higher speeds...

HP Touchpad Overclocking Question

Just recently got a touchpad. After reading around, I found out the 64gb version is clocked at 1.5ghz. I have a 32.
Both seem to have the S3 APQ8060 CPU, which is 1.2-1.5ghz. Does this mean the touchpad is technically overclocked..ie..100% safe to OC to 1.5?
Thanks!

The 64 gb are clocked at 1.5, the 16 & 32 gb are underclocked at 1.2........
In webos I have it oc'd to 1.7 max, 384 min. using Uberquernel and the preware speed tweaks. In android, I oc to 1.7 max, 384 min using Antutu CPU Master.
I have had no issues, but others have. Make sure you have a good backup, just in case.

My question was more regarding the hardware. Why is the Same model # of CPU clocked lower for the 16/32 verions??

Underclocking to 1.2 allowed HP to claim longer lasting battery life.
I've found little difference oc'n to 1.7.

To save battery life mostly, Apple underclocks the iPhone processor IIRC for the same reason.
Also while manufacturing chips for same speed, not every chip will achieve the same clocking...keeping everything same one chip can go to 1.9 while other can just go 1.5...so most manufacturer sets at stable frequency..so that every chip can achieve that
Almost all devices are under clocked in some way.
just make sure you use a cpu tuning app like setcpu or whatever to tune your frequencies
Most Touchpads can easily do 1.5 since that's the rated speed of the chip.
1.7 or higher is not within specifications and not all TP's can do it. I have one that runs 1.7 right now without issue, but the last two I had refused to go above 1.5.
The reason has something to do with the nature of the cpu making process. Just to let you know, there are some variants of desktop cpu even though they have same architecture, take i7 for example, why do you think one sells more expensive than the other? The reason being the most expensive one (9 series) has least defect in the cpu, enable it to utilize the most transistors and this is pretty rare, therefore they priced higher.
All cpu were made in the same process, the one that have more defects will priced lower, they in fact shut down the defective part and mark them 'more energy efficient' while they are effectively running less transistor.
The same thing happened here, not all cpu is perfect, so not all cpu can be clocked high. So they decided to take 1.2ghz, as it is probably where most manufactured cpu able to cope with. i.e. if you device can run 2ghz or more that mean you get the almost perfect cpu, as simple as that.
My Touchpad overclocked in WebOS @ 1.7 but can't get higher without it crashing. In Android however, using Bricked Kernel on CM Official Nightlies I can reach 2.02 Ghz (not stable without vcore changes but could be stable, just keep in mind of how warm the Touchpad's getting) and 2.157 Ghz (with unsafe voltages for benchmark suicide runs).

With the right governor and profiles, 1.5GHz is not an issue.
