Short answer : No.
As I guess you already know , you can play them but they will move very slowly .
The maximum flawless video playback resolution , with or without overclock , is 800x480 .

I don't even see the need for overclocking a Mini 2.
SetCPU:
set at 122 mhz to 800 mhz, interactive, noop
in call profile at 320 mhz to 800 mhz, interactive, noop
screen off profile at 122 mhz to 320 mhz, interactive, noop
Most of factory Samsung apps / bloatware frozen via Titanium Backup.
Phone is so fast and smooth that it feels overclocked. And the battery life went up like a mofo!
But, to each his own. Besides, playing 720p videos on a Mini 2 screen is a bit overkill

And here's a list of apps ( not mine ) with ones you can safely freeze with Titanium Backup. Do them one by one, use common sense and test for stability. I've had no problems.

Yeah, this list works with Mini 2.

Wow thanks for this. Mini 2 working much much faster recommended :good:

Always glad to help, my good man. Those SetCPU settings make Mini 2 99 percent lag free. And increase battery life a lot. Enjoy.
And, by the way... Mini 2 runs Anomaly Korea just fine, if anyone's interested.
Great little smartphone. Keeps surprising me. Too bad it's overlooked by people.
Their loss

Reckless Racing 2 1.0.3 works and does not crash anymore. Very, very slight lag here and there but hell... it is super playable.

What are your overclock settings? curious.

Hi folks,
I was just wondering, what are everyone's speeds? I shall start first I have attached a screenshot of my voltages, speeds, and governor.
WARNING : I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE YOUR NOOK MIGHT INCUR AS A RESULT OF TRYING ANY OF OVERCLOCK CONFIGURATIONS MENTIONED HERE.​
Quick note - i would strongly suggest backing your CPU down to a max of 1200Mhz. For some reason, any speed above that will tank your GPU performance (by as much as half); the additional 100Mhz CPU loss isn't really felt (especially with the GPU gains).

Is there anyway to confirm this? How can I measure GPU performance?
I set mine at 1200MHz and didn't bother playing with cpu voltage.

It has been well confirmed in severl threads (Cm7 dev and general), but you can easily test yourself with nenamark 1. Set your clocks to 1200, and run the bench; then set your clocks to 1300, run again (and watch your framerate plummet).

I tried your little scenario of dropping down to 1125mhz and running nenamark. I was 14.8 running 1125mhz and at 15.6 at 1300mhz. I am running chainfire plug ins.
Sent with my Nook, paid the $Buck for XDA Premium—you should 2!
And what do those numbers mean?
14.8 is better or worse compared to 15.6?

Odd.. i can get 21 Fps at @1200.. i would have expected the 1125 to be around the same; though the 1300 sounds right on.
I got 16.3 fps using my current setup. Lawl. What part of android uses 3d acceleration anyway?

Good point however I don't play any games that uses 3d. I don't really play any games. Just browsing with dolphin and lots of email.
I will take it down per notch as per your suggestion once I update to a newer version though.
Also, some of the framerate difference may come from you running the 32bit framebuffer kernel, instead of the faster 16bit (but if you don't game alot, you may not really need it anyway).
Scratch that. I just tested it. I got 22.9fps. Lawl. I am now tweaking it again. What are your voltages?
Thanks for the suggestion again. 1200 MHz Max for me.
P.s. how do I check which framerate buffer am I running?

If u don't play any games, then why to bother for the 3D loss of 1300mhz?
I would prefer to use the extra speed.

Frankly, i am under the personal impression that overall the system is more responsive at 1200, and that is not just the GPU. Something about that speed is the sweet spot.
And really.. only rarely will a system that does web pages and email hit max speed anyway... why not opt for a better all around performance, rather than an immeasurable CPU gain?
I know this could be kind of off topic, but what battery temperatures do you guys get when overclocking? because the other day mine was at 36 Celsius overclocked at 1200, Does anyone knows of a safe temperature range?
Mine hovers around 34 to 36. My hd2 goes up to 43 and that is fine too. Honestly, I would think that as long as it is under 40 you should not worth.
I use 300 min and 1200 max and have the governor set to on demand. No issues with this setting.
300 - .8125
600 - 1.0
800 - 1.1875
1100 - 1.25
1200 - 1.2875
Haven't used it much recently, but about 5% drain for 24 hours in sleep. I need to put it through some heavy use to see how bad I can kill the battery.

You probably got the voltages reversed. Not possible to run 300 mhz on 1.2875. Lawl.

This was my initial setting as well (with the exception of running the max at 1300mhz). However, I realized that it wasn't the max speed that was the issue, I found out that increasing the lower-steppings was key in increasing the overall fluidity of the device as the interactive governor ramped through the steppings.

[Q] Why use UV or OV?

Hello all,
I've a question since some day, I try to find the answer with search but with no success.
Which benefit you can receive with UV or OV?
I think that:
The UV is better for battery life but with less performance.
The OV give a better performance but consume more battery.
If so... why you find many overclock setup with more Mhz but less Volts?
I cannot understand that... it's look like a no sense for me.
I've a Galaxy S with NEO 17 Kernel.
Actually use:
Governor: conservative
Force Minimal freq when screen off: OFF
1200 Mhz -25
1000 Mhz -50
800 Mhz -50
400 Mhz -50
200 Mhz -75
100 Mhz -100
I try this setup coping from other post, because I want the better life battery for "office use" but a good performance when I do gaming... but I cannot understad why of this setting
PS: sorry for my poor english.

How come you think that UV means "less performance"? Core voltage has nothing to do with performance (at least not in the way, you mentioned it)
I think you can found some good tutorials about OC/UV, somewhere in sgs section..so check those out to learn more about this subject.
It isn't always very easy to figure out these things, but it's good that everybody can found lots of information from xda

First of all thanks for your reply.
I "suppose" that under voltage is mean less performance, but I really don't konw.
I want to understand why I have the possibility to under or over voltage and what does mean...
In order to make an example, which different are there if I put 1.200 Mhz with voltage -50 or 1.200 Mhz with +100 voltage?
Sorry I'm newbe in overclocking!
I was using oc for few days and I didnt find a better performance except the quadrant score. Anyway oc is a risk process. If we are not getting that much performance then why should we take risk. Try Darky ROM v10.2RE and flash semaphore kernel you will get a better performance without OC.

[Q] Does the OC really make any effectiveness on Galaxy mini?

I've just flashed emanoN v3, it has No-Frills CPU control app by default, I used this app to set my CPU like this: Max 710Mhz, Min 245Mhz, Governor performance, I/O scheduler deadline --> Apply on Boot.
But is it me or it doesn't make any work on my Galaxy mini? I still get lag on many games like when not overclocked!
should i use chain fire 3D?
[Sorry 4 my bad English ]
Try other governors and reset your phone after making changes.

I did, but
should I use chainfire3d instead of NO-Frills ?
Chainfire 3D is graphics tool for better optimization of games and other 3D apps.
Did you check Apply on boot option?
as in my question: I checked Apply on boot option
If OC doesnt make any work on galaxymini, why did they add it in custom ROM 4 galaxymini?
Try other rom like CM 7.2 overclocking worked for me.
why doesn't the OC make any work on Noname ??!!
A tried over-clocking a couple of times but I really didn't feel the difference, except the battery drain, of course. Now-a-days, I don't even care to over-clock.
I am having my mini with cm7.1.0 music edition and overclocked it to 782 MHz and I find that in set CPU native benchmark I found that it took 900 micro second less when I clocked it to 782 MHz so I can say that Oct really works it also make my device run more smoothly its true that some games like angry birds lags yet after oc

OC can improve device's performance, but that improvement was identified by ur own experiences or measurement software?
that's right, I've got lag in angry birds even after OC
my phone is OCed at 782mhz and it's lag free everything works flawlessly...

Many games are tailored towards devices with 1Ghz processors and newer (including dualcore and advanced GPU's like the Tegra2 and Exynos chipsets). Don't expect the latest games to run reliably on a sub-800Mhz singlecore device.
Apps that require Chainfire3D are unlikely to work very well at all on the SGM as they're generally aimed at the higher-performance devices.
If you want to see the difference an overclock makes, then run an AnTuTu CPU benchmark before & after overclocking. If the figure doesn't change much (You should expect an increase roughly relative to the % of the overclock) then something isn't working correctly.
I can play Need For Speed Shift without any lag

yup! I just expect the Oc makes change that I can feel thru my own experiences! I dont want to see a good result on Antutu then THINK my device has better performance!!! U know what I mean?
btw, just looked ur signature, u r a serious guy, arent u? haha! It's a cooler way (that's what they thought) to write, why so serious
We are lucky because s5570 is equipted with gpu. Why dont you try using cm7.2 oc with 782 kernel. Plus a2sd and v6 supercharger.

Will do but it may be done in the next month, Thanks for your suggestion.
First of all THANK YOU for spending your time on this and sharing your result with us!
Just flashed the kernel! Good news...nothing is bricked
CPU Spy Plus indeed shows 1836 Mhz used! I did´t do anything for that.
You might re-think this. Using 1512Mhz instead by default and let the users choose that high speed CPU mode themselves as it may not be stable on all devices.
That 324Mhz added is a huge step...there is no step in between possible?
What about voltages. Did you modify anything? Is the voltage raised to achieve the high cpu frequency? Please post some more information about what happens here...
In fact I´m just running Antutu to see general stability on my device.
VERY BAD score. Before your kenel there were 20300 points. Now with OC only 19746.
=====================================================================
EDIT: Just recognized.... several questions are being answered by Antutu CPU Master.
1512 IS USED by default!
1620Mhz and 1728 Mhz are there to choose and of course finally the 1836Mhz.
Scaling is interactive by default (changed to my fav ondemand)
I/O Scheduler is cfq by default (changed to my fav noop)
Antutu Score @ 1836Mhz: 16077Mhz ???
Lower than without OC? Needs retesting (14230 point when setting max to 1836Mhz and Min to 1512Mhz(!!!???)...maybe the benchmark is wrong...Will give it some time to see if I myself feel a speedup.
After Restart Antutu Score ends up @ 19761 points...not bad. but clearyl not enough looking at the massice OC done. REBOOT! Tab just rebooted! So 1836Mhz is not stable at mine! Trying 1728Mhz now instead.
18139 points....this kernel lacks some serious power if we can believe the scores of antutu. This is a V0.1 so nothing to worry too soon. You´ll make it find it´s power
Switched back to kernel from pulser_g2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444452) and 19908 points without any OC! You may look into it.
But please answer the other questiones I wasn´t able to clear myself.

Sorry for my late,
I've tested Antutu with 1512MHz and 1836MHz. For my Tablet Z, I got ~20000 (1512MHz) and ~23000 (1836MHz).
My Tablet Z has fast binning CPU. Can you please tell me which binning your CPU is? Thank you!
hard to tell...did taht thing in Terminal emulator....it tells me "1".
Not fast or slow or anything...

Don´t know....after the disastrous performance of the first release I of course switched back to stock.
Now there is the new version which does not cut performance in stock mode.
I´ll OC now to 1728 Mhz and see how it performs with that....battery life is not really good with stock so if you are already asking...FORGET ABOUT alternative kernels not optimized for battery.
That is why I don´t use CM oder AOKP on my Note1. I just eats the battery for breakfast....
OK OC just seemed to scale...20300 points (ca. 19300 at stock speed)...trying 1836 Mhz now.
17389 points....clear drawback....possibly because my device seems to have a bad CPU from what I´ve learned....wanted to use the 17xx Mhz anyway....oops....device just rebooted....my device just isn´t capable of the max cpu setting. :crying:
Anyway the working 1728 Mhz working is great news!
Will give it further testing...
I have two APQ8064 devices, Nexus 4 and Tablet Z. Nexus 4 is 0 (slow), it will reboot sometimes even on [email protected], the Antutu would force close and red light of death would happen if you ignore it and attempt to run again. While my Tablet Z is 2 (fast), this can run at [email protected] and got 23XXX in Antutu.
I don't have an idea which frequency can the 1 (nominal) APQ8064 clock at, but I think [email protected] will be OK. Also, keep eyes on the CPU float-point section in Antutu. At 1512Mhz, it is around 2000. At 1836MHz, it is around 2200. If this drop lower, just pull up the voltage BUT NOT TOO MUCH!!!

Raising voltage is not an option to me. But anyway...which app do you use for that on tablet Z?
What App do you use for cou control?
I use No-frills. Do you change "interactive" and or "cfq"?
Numbers right after reboot and stopping some unused apps...just stock apps running...
2729 / 930 / 1112 / 1050 / 511 / 927 / 1436 / 5278 / 696 / 600
>>> 15269 points @ stock !!!

What App do you use for cou control?
I use No-frills. Do you change "interactive" and or "cfq"?

I would like to know this as well. Also, how do you check to see which processor you have? (0,1,2; slow, nominal, fast)

What is the terminal command to find out? I also considered custom retelling to add some processing oomph. On a per app basis, but reading this... Stock SGP311 on 4.2.2 is chugging fine just north of 20000 points on Antutu. Can we compare Versions? Mine is 3.3.1. I faintly recall reading they mixed up some benchmarking internals because some corporations found loopholes to cheat / inflate scores on new to market devices, maybe that's the discrepancy there?
Another wild thought, could there maybe be, aside from different CPU Models, different kinds of cache / memory scattered through the devices? Would not be the first time a sub par. Cache/Memory bottleneck severely strangled a nominally and factually quicker CPU into much lower overall results. Much depends on weighting within Antutu
Man, what happened with your kernel? We need some stock kernels for 4.3

So, I managed to overclock my GPU to 2 GHz ("TURBO" Profile) with KonaBess and it's rock solid. Have I been extremely lucky or...?

So, I went on a "boredom rampage" and I've read an article about a guy overclocking his 865 GPU to 865 MHz and reaching Adreno 660-levels of performance and I decided to give it a try and it was awesome.
Problem is, I'm too much of a thinkerer and I pushed the GPU as much as I could. I ended up on 2000 MHz with "TURBO" voltage profile and it's rock solid even on 2100 MHz with the same profile but KonaBess gives me an error if I try to edit the GPU tables after I booted at 2100 MHz.
I even edited the clock profiles to make it smoother, starting from 305 MHz to 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 with the right voltages.
Now, the battery and SoC temperatures are the same, the battery drain is basically the same, some other fellow modders with the same device (Mi 10T Pro 5G 8/256 with Pixel Experience Plus ROM) didn't manage to hit the same clocks, crashing even with 1000 or 1200 MHz, with my file from the KonaBess app.
So, have I been extremely lucky with the silicon lottery or it's just an illusion?
Please ask if you need ANY benchmark or proof. I've been monitoring the GPU clock with Franco Kernel Manager Live Monitoring and the clock is solid at 2000 MHz and the 3D performance has at first jumped and then slowly climbed, especially on 3DMark Wild Life Extreme. Wild Life Extreme Stress Test is stable the temperatures are fine.
Do you guys have any questions/suggestions/requests?
Edit: Here are some 3DMark runs, both Wild Life and Wild Life Extreme at stock and 2 GHz. I use Greenify, my storage is 94% full and all my processes in the background take up 4 GB of RAM and I didn't touch the bus for the various steppings for the clocks, so I believe that if heavily tuned, this could make a difference.

I have the history of all the bench on 3DMark, because I downloaded it just for this. Would that be ok?
it seems fishy, a 1ghz+ oc would increase your fps by more than that.

It doesn't have the biggest of bumps from 900 MHz to 1 GHz or 2 GHz, but still, is capable of doing it and rock solid too.

i don't think your gpu is actually running at 2ghz while you are running a benchmark. going from stock to 2ghz would at least have to give you an extra 20-30 fps in Wild Life.

Not necessarily. The GPU IS running at 2 GHz but I think that the problem might be some diminishing returns where the clock doesn't mean anything after a certain point.
Are you try locking the freq on 2ghz in Kernel maneger ? Set min and max to 2gzhz with performance governor .

I've made various frequency steps. 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 MHz. But if I change the governor, after I reboot, it will be msm-adreno-tz again. Max frequency is still 2000 MHz and minimum 400 MHz.
Yes after reboot is resets like on every phone you have to check apply on boot and select min 2000GHZ and max 2000ghz GPu freq in tap in FKM and set gov to performance and do benchmark like 3dmark wild life . Like that. And in Smart pack Kernel manager free app is GPU throttle turn that off.
Check box apply on boot and after boot will be apply.
And that you can show improvements of OC

Can you share your Konabess txt file to import. I"m buying it I and want overclock.

Thanks What is temperature ? Do you game with that or this just experiment ?
Temperatures are roughly the same. I do game with that. On normal games, frequency stays at 400 MHz, but on really heavy games like Genshin Impact, completely maxed out, depending on the scene, the GPU goes to 1.6 or 1.8 GHz and rarely at 2 GHz during some heavy cutscenes. 3DMark keeps it at 2 GHz all the time.

Hello, excuse my ignorance, but I want to learn what konabess is, it's an app or a magisk module, I also have the xiaomi mi 10t pro with DotOs rum android 11 and then I want to play more fluently, could you help me
konabess app is software you can overclock GPU and undervolt.
You need root and that it.

Here tutorial but it old I need make new one because there isn't good one tutorial about it.
This doesn't make any sense. Why would Qualcomm leave so much on the table ?
