Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

" Error Calculatong the cpu frequency. Exiting "<<<< what should i do ?

Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

I can do 710 and 748 and it works well. Seeing a some extra battery drain but I assume its because of active sync and exchange... On busy exchange email days I notice more drain for obvious reasons. I tried 787 but had boot to lockup on my custom rom. and I didn't install the OC_Auto4.2 to the SD card... Thank god for XDA_UC! Good thing Im used to flashing several times a week...

Other then that its really cool we can OC. I am thinking of making an EXT to cook it in and maybe make rom first boot a little faster... Thanks all!

Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

At 710 right now, but a quick question. Would overclocking make my phone a lot hotter and reduce the life of the cpu?

I am debating whether to try it now or wait for netrippers V3 to come out(which will eliminate the need for scripts mambo-jumbo)!!!

It is unknown when an update will come.
If you are afraid or just do not want to deal with scripts, then this post is for you:

I can confirm this fixes the SOD when using SetCpuSpeed I was getting SOD after every call when using setCpuspeed 1.0d Changing this registry settting has fixed it. that was the only issue so far. running 748Mhz and stable. no scripts required, only one cab to install, and one registry edit, done!

To make things even more simpler, I made a cab for the reg-fix for SOD on calls....
And also to set the startup on a reset to 2min, which is needed to give enough time for the phone to fully boot up before the OC kicks in(on a soft-reset).
So all-you-need, three cabs here:
EDIT: I think Msm7kCpuSpeed_v2 app not needed, just 2 other cabs, but I still install it anyway to check the speed, then close that app. Never leave it open as it will crash when unit sleeps.

EDIT2:
For those lucky enough to clock higher...
OR un-lucky enough to need more control from SOD...
USE THE SCRIPTS!!:

Should go up to 902mhz now.

Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

Here are my results with SPB Benchmarks v1.6. All results are in Ms and lower is better/faster

ROM = Formula's SPB MobileSense 3.5.5 - Formula.LD.23563.E.080410.exe (WM 6.5 COM5)

Clean flash done right before tests with Task29 prior(to assure integrity)
Fresh reboot + 2 mins wait(to make sure startup apps are fully loaded) done before EACH run.

As you can see OCing to 787Mhz brings tremendous benefits. Not a single problem during overclocked state.
Did not notice any excessive battery drain, nor did phone overheat during intensive benchmarking(Battery temp stayed under 40c)
All the tests took a bit over 3 hours, hitting thanks button takes less than 3 seconds:),
but then again i didnt do it for thanks

Way to take one for the team buddy. I was really wondering how well the OverClocker actually worked, and now I have my answer. So thank you very much kind sir.

I actually download this like a week ago, but still have yet to put it on my Phone, as I wanted to wait until I got a bit more info on it.

Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

787 locks my phone up on BigNaDaD's maxsense rom. What rom were you running?

Re: Overclock TP2 in WM?

For me, I can OC to 729. Anything more and it locks up. That's good enough for me.:mrgreen:

Engergy ROM with CHT 8/1
Using Msm7kCPUspeed v2
Dont know what the build date is since I cannot ##786# with this ROM

You need to close Msm7kCpuSpeed. Never leave it open.

1) Is there any other soft that can tell you the current speed?
2) If i just remove both Auto_OC and Msm7kCpuSpeed from remove programms in settings - will it revert all back to normal(stock speed) or do i need to do something else prior?
3) Auto_OC seems to be limited to 784mhz, while Msm7kCpuSpeed seem to be able to go higher, any reason why? I set it to max(in auto_oc) and ran coreplayer(few tracks) as well as spb benchmarks few times and it seems stable, would like to try a bit higher, for that i have to go directly through Msm7kCpuSpeed then or is there a way to enable higher OC in Auto_OC?

OK added higher OC values for those lucky people out there ;)
