[Q] Liberty Rom performance setting - Motorola Droid 3

I'm new to all of this and was just wondering if anyone has any performance settings (max/min cpu, governor, etc...) recommendations for Liberty rom under the performance setting? I searched the forum and could not find any. I do have the speedy script installed.

Not much point messing with cpu and governer. You can't overclock and underclocking tends to cause instablity.

Ok, thanks. Why did they put the option in there to change the setting if it makes the phone unstable? Glad I asked first!

Some underclocking will work, although from what I've heard the differemce to battery savings is pretty minimal. There is a thread here that has some files that allow some overclocking actually, although it seems most ppl can't manage more than 1.1 without automatic reboot, we can't increase the voltage. Liberty isn't just for the d3, its been ported, so other devices may be able to use these features, also if we ever get the bootloader unlocked it will be very useful.

But for froyo? Maybe is asking for it.
maybe someone with the tallents could have a look into this OC method they use for droid x and milestone using a kernel module, this would enable us to overclock any froyo kernel.

It would be nice to have it in the kernel. 100 to 1200 that the system controlling like it already do. No setcpu crap.

also setcpu is not to blame for the problems, as it runs just well on galaxy i7500 for overclocking. i´m not sure what the problem wit it is on SGS, but i´m pretty its not setcpu´s fault

The problem is that SGS doesn't like different CPU governors! It will only work if you don't touch the governor settings! At least that is what I have found to work in the Eclair builds!

Seems ignorance is bliss for some of our fellow xda folks. SetCPU is not even needed for those oc kernels unless you want to change scaling from default schema. It really don't contribute to the unstablity, just that the kernels seemed inefficient.

I agree. Don't install SetCPU and the kernel is reasonably stable, but crashes miserably when running cup intensive apps. We have to work harder developing a kernel which works well for our hardware.

I can understand what you are suggesting, however why was it still unstable when I tried to disable 1.2GHz or 1.13GHz frequency keeping the original scaling and running at 1GHz or less??
Is that 0.2 bump really noticeable?

dont know which version you used.
1.13 was quite old. All recent versions were 1.2. Anyway, nevermind =)
Yeah, do want a OC'able kernel - the 1.2GHz kernels for Éclair were always stable enough for me if I didn't try to UV it.
Id be open to using a 1.2Ghz OC if its 100% stable and no wake-up bugs and ofcourse should not affect the life of my CPU that much and should not drain my battery more than 10% faster

Zio Overclocking Question

Well iv had my Zio for a few months now and even with the 2.2 Update sometimes it seems to slow down and stutter.
I have been doing some research on Rooting my phone to get wifi tethering and the ability overclock my phone for better performance.
Now so far the Zio community on here seems to be very small so i dont expect an answer very fast so here is my question.
Has anyone with a Zio Managed to root there phone and overclock it? im not talking about some CRAZY overclock. im thinking in the 50-100MHz range. if so how has the performance increased? or has the performance Decreased? how is the battery life?
I have attempted such by manually editing some CPU files. I was able to successfully adjust the governor and changed from the stock 95% to 100% CPU threashold.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
So far I would say its a little faster. I definitely see a difference when opening apps and especially with the 2.3 launcher from the market.

What were your exact editing lines? I forgot which thread it was where you answered this question before.
I basically changed the governor to performance and threashold too 100. Actually overclocking the ZIO is giving me trouble when I try to go higher than 600000

Correction. Governor must be set to on demand to edit the threashold.

You wont be able to get true over clocking until theres been kernel source released. Has that happened yet? New to this device.
If so, and someone is willing to do something with adb, I can work on getting an overclock kernel for you guys, but I wont be able to test it myself so it could be a bit dangerous.
As long as it isn't clocked any faster than 6.5 or 7... 7 would be risky.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
You cannot over clock the Zio at the moment. The Kernel does not support it. You can use an app to set it to 600mhz all the time. It usually stays at 600mhz on its on.

Once we ave source, if one of you can pull your current config for me, which i'll explain once its available, it shouldn't be too hard to clock up a little.

There is a overclock widget available that works great. When screen is locked it downclocks to what ever you set it too. Once unlocked it goes to 600 MHz.

but im gonna try and bump that 600 number up a little bit. Just need source code.
Tried to overclock witb droid. Fixed some permissions with clockwork it opened and ran just like setcpu. The app said the overclock module couldn't be opened because my device wasn't listed. Obviously.
Kyo M6000 Rooted with NoAds or Bloatware.
yeah the module is gonna be device specific.
I can't wait to see what this phone can do overclocked!
I had the Droid Incredible, iPhone 3G and neither could play the videos that I encoded for the ZIO without stuttering. The ZIO is playing the video files without stuttering with default player!
MP4/H.264/AVC/AAC LC
Video
800x480/4:3/29.97/1536
Audio
48100/2/160
I was just testing these settings on full movies just to see how bad the ZIO would stutter, to my surprise it played those as if it wanted more!
I will not keep those settings, as a full movie is over 1.5GB!
I might keep the video settings and use different audio settings, because the quality of the videos kick major butt!
I will be the beta tester for your Overclocking kernel option94!
I think it would do 750Mhz no problems, which would make this phone a beast! I wonder what the video sub system is in this unit?

[kernel[05.13.2011][bfq][oc]2.6.32.9

Hey folks,
P-Funk asked me to take a look at the kernel source for the Zio and see what I could make of it.
I won't lie to you, its not pretty. However, determination usually prevails, and so I present you with a kernel, currently beta, with minimal support (I don't have a Zio).
Use at your own risk! I, nor anyone else is responsible for damage done from, or to your device. Your device may become unstable. Your cat may marry your dog, and your gerbil may elope with your daughter or son. This is not my fault.
Features
2.6.32.9 source built
overclocked to 748mhz
lowmemkiller driver patches and tweaks
Boots at stock 600mhz speed. You must use setcpu to overclock.
sdcard read speed tweak
init.d support
smartass and interactive governors.
bfq i/o scheduler added and set as default.
kernel is pre-rooted, and will start usb debugging by default.
swap support
Download URL:
http://www.multiupload.com/2GQA0JD1VS
How to install:
Download file, place on sdcard, boot clockwrok recovery and flash.
Please note: I am trying to upload source to a mercurial repo, but it is having issues. I have a trouble ticket in with bitbucket. The source is too big to upload to github for free. If I do not hear back from them, I will tarball the source and upload it that way.
Thanks:

OK I flashed the Kernel and I am stuck at the Kyocera splash screen. Dont understand why its not booting up.
For those that cannot boot this, SPz0 has a more stable version that he will be releasing with his rom.
729mhz seems to be the most stable clockspeed for this device.
for those that are wondering, the smartass governor eliminates the need for a "screen off" profile by automatically capping the CPU speed when the screen is off/phone goes to sleep.
More info.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!

In other words, SetCPU would only be needed to OC (or use the Overclock widget, whatever floats your cookies).
So this kernel is ready to use or wait? A little confused from your post.

Any reason anyone can think of why or what in the kernel would cause 2d graphics to choke out so bad? I was scoring 110-120 prior to OCing, and now 2d is scoring 70 if I'm lucky. Any thoughts or ideas?

749Mhz ran flawless for me. It seems to be random on who 749mhz freezes with.
@sinisin: did you flash 749oc with the openzio rom?
My ROM has Adrynalyne's stable 729Mhz overclock for those interested.
Hey Adrynalyne:
Think I could grab an 800Mhz OC from you at some point? I really wanna push the boundaries of this cpu.
Just a straight step from 748 to 800Mhz would be sufficient.
I want to see if I can get it to run stable @ 800Mhz.
I think that would need some voltage tweaks to reach 800mhz

All the cool kids have cricket
Cricket users are lucky to have any development, my roommates told me there wouldn't be any Dev's interested in the ZIO. I think the main issue you're encountering is any Dev who has the droid options available on sprint, is not going to choose the ZIO for their personal phone or development. You're best bet is to start reading like crazy and head the development of the sprint side of things yourself or upgrade to a phone that has active development.

[Q] Hit the 5 month mark, should I finally root and lagfix?

I have noticed that when I click a button, I usually have to wait from 1-2 seconds before I get a response. Would lagfix take care of this? I'm running stock Froyo.
As many have stated all the lagfix does is help fix the very slow rts file system, it most likely would not help in your case.
Best thing to do is delete unused apps, and reboot the phone every day or to(seems to help mine out, cant guarantee results)
Also if you havent needed root in 5 months you probably don't need it
Unless you want to use opitimised roms, I dont see why you would need to root. Check your memory usage delete unused apps and reboot the phone ever once in a while.

Gonna have to agree with mcord here. had to go back to stock froyo for about 5 hours (didnt have all my tool to get back my 2.3.4 ROM) and it was horrible.
you might not be up for it but i really recommend flashing a Froyo Custom ROM from one of the xda DEVs. you'll love your phone and be amazed that it can be so much smoother and responsive.
First thing I did after i rooted was flashed a new kernel to overclock. Performance increased but battery life was poor. Then my first rom was cm7..been hooked since..tried miui once then went back to cm7.

No a Benchmark score is not the best example to lag fix your phone ,but the more power you get, plus better battery life and, better perrformance are great reasons to lag fix your phone.

I dont think he thought it meant everything, he was giving a simple before and after which showed some improvement. Quadrant can actually be pretty useful when trying to gauge what effects certain changes have on your phone, say you score a 1900 before you change 'x' and then 2200 after that change, then you know its increased performance somewhat and youre moving in the right direction. How much it has increased your performance is debatable, however. My point is quadrant can be a useful tool when making changes on your phone if you take it with a grain of salt.
EDIT: To answer op's question, Read up on some custom roms and flash one, the difference is phenomenal and you'll wonder how you went 5 months without them. If you have any other questions feel free to pm me and I'll see what help I can be

Why would anyone want that? It'd be better just to go ahead and run over the phone with a bus. There's a reason the OC kernels got dialed back by devs. BTW it doesn't make the phone that much faster either. If you need 1.8 another phone is the way to go.

It strictly helps with lag IMO. I just like how my apps run smoothly and I can run multiple apps without the phone crashing & rebooting. Far as battery there is no app or tweaks that will help if you use 4.2. In fact I got rid of my battery apps as they all just eat memory and do things any user with common sense can do.

Greenify is OK but your main battery culprit is Gnow/Maps. Technically Greenify is supposed to be able to hibernate Maps but that is useless as Gnow needs it quite a bit so it gets awaken a lot. I love Gnow and choose to live with that as I use mass transit and those features are needed. However if you don't, then disable Maps and that will increase your battery somewhat.
Far as Juice Defender and the like, they are a joke IMHO. I used Juice Defender for over a year (they haven't updated the app on over a year either) and just like a lot of them you only save battery if you let it disable data and Wifi when not in use. I don't really care for that and can turn those on and off at will myself. Trust me you will see these battery apps are all smoke & mirrors.
Far as NOS consumption of battery, seems to have no effect one way or another.
