Re: Overclock the Imagio
 
I installed this. Love the speed increase, but it's chewing down the battery. Any suggestions?

It seems to run just fine.. nice and fast.... that is until i recieve a call. Once i get ready to hang up the call i get a freeze. I have to soft reset. I have tried this all the way down to 710. Any ideas? Im running aug 10 21911 dinik glass

set the MHZ to whatever you want. sleep to 604 & polling rate to 100.
itll auto overclock by itself & never crash/sod.

sorry, I'm confused by the several different methods described on this thread. Is the above still considered the safest and easiest way to overclock, or are some of the more complex instructions here better? What's the consensus - what's the best way to do this?

This fix that Toysrme posted combines the original tweak, cabs it up, puts the .dll's in the correct place and so far has been wonderfully stable for me with the settings of 768MHz, 604 throttled, and 100 for polling. It has one setting higher than 768 but I haven't tried it yet (in the old analog days of overclocking homebuilts by adjusting a dash-pot type of control, yeah, I'm old, I was taught to never top out a slider or dash-pot so I always back off from the max settings).

I'm running EnergyROM with CHT (the early July release as I have no need for anything in the newer releases as the phone is stable and running well).

Of course YMMV but this worked well for me!

p.s. I do soft reset every day, old habit, but it has keep me from locking up and the memory leak with Opera will eat up the available mem in under 2 days with regular use.

Are you getting a lockup when you hangup a call? everything is smooth for untill i recieve a call. THe call goes through just fine. but when the call ends and i remove from my face the screen stays black and the phone freezes. I have confirmed its a freeze and not just lack of wakin up. When i soft reset i have record of the call that it hung on in my call history,....

No lockups here. I'm more of a PDA user than a phone user (more hours a day using the PDA side than the phone side) but I can make and receive calls w/o problems with the above settings. My only resets are my daily 'when I get in the shower I reset my phone' routine to keep the memory clean.

Are you running a ROM other than Energy or have any other dialer software loaded?

Also, remember, that overclocking is very hardware dependent and you may have a chip that can't tolerate the extra speed (when they make chips they usually test them to failure and package them at the speed at which they are stable so your processor may not be able to take the speed increase).

just using the enery aug 10th dinik glass 21911. It doesnt happen with every call though. I like u use it more for a pda than a phone so it doesnt happen enough tto piss me off. lol

I tried the CAB (and didn't over-do the recommended settings), but noticed that the device would never wake up after going to sleep - I had to press the reset button. I then tried to get rid of it with "Remove programs" and the little spinning thing (the 4 colored dots) stopped spinning but didn't move off the list of programs screen. It appears to be stuck... I rebooted with the reset button, and the same thing happened - "XDA oruam57 SetCPuSpeed is still on the list - how do I uninstall this CAB??

Though I haven't done it, here's the info from post #28 (you may have to reinstall to uninstall):
To easily uninstall the CAB without problems perform these steps in order:

1) Pull SD card
2) Soft-reset
3) After WM/Sense/etc has loaded completely (and you get the error message about the shortcut target SetCpuSpeed.exe not being found), insert the SD again
4) Uninstall CAB

Ah. Thanks, that seems to have done it. Too bad - I would have liked to overclock but constant freezes aren't worth it.

I can confirm that the phone freezes during some calls. I was talking to my friend when I heard the call waiting beep. I went to go to my phone and I could not turn it on, it stayed black. I was still able to talk to my friend from the first call, but had no choice but to take out the battery to get back into the phone. I am using stock rom but installed the 25012 manilla 2.5 upgrade. The thing is it's not every call, but it does happen at least once a day

Same here.. not every call but it does hang. I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that the screen goes black when its near your face but lights up when pulled away???????????

Well stepped it down a notch from 748 to 729 and the freezing stopped.....seems fine now, running titanium and stock rom.

I find that it hangs only after a call when i use the hardware button to hang up ...if I wait for the soft button 'end call 'to show up (from dark screen ) and hit that ..all is good. Im using the cab @ 710. any more than 710 and im getting bsod 1/hr....its only once a day @710(usually when i forget and hit the hardware key)

Update - I uninstalled. Just when I thought it was ok, back would come the BSOD's and soft-resets.
