Netripper overclock working on touch pro 1

[frizzlefry]

Well I thought i would start a thread here for those of us that are not aware of this development.
Over at xda a couple of apps for oc the tp2 have been created, I have been able to get Netrippers app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725290 to work on my Alltel tp1 for 30 days now rock solid at 710.
I did this by following Qzytor's guide for the Blackstone http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1191 with some modifications.

Netripper originally stated that his app only worked on AC power etc. and seemingly abandoned devolpment. lots of folks created scripts to get this working on the TP2 followed by Oruam57 creating setcpuspeed for the TP2 crowd that uses the dll from Netrippers original app. Others (including Qzytor) then modified registry settings for this that are beyond the capability of setcpuspeed to modify. Based on all these folks great work this is what I came up with that works for me on the TP1.

these are the modified instructions and registry settings I use

Install NetRipper's Msm7kCpuSpeed V.2 App. in your Device (installs needed files for this to work as well as a way to see your current speed)

Install oruam57's SetCpuSpeed v1.0d on SD card. (runs in the background to hold speed on AC power, avoid the infamous sleep of death associated with this overclock method and automatically sets speed at reboot)

Take SD card out and soft reset the phone.

now there are two methodsto complete the final step, either install SetCpuSpeed Touch Pro Settings.cab , reinstall sd card and soft reset

Or
Open registry.
Go to HKLM\Software\Msm7kCpuSpeed.
Edit the values as below:

BootTime = 90000 (This is important. This value gives enough time for the
phone to fully boot up. The phone has to fully boot up
before the OC kicks in)
CheckTime = 20 (Stable at 20, otherwise yoyos between base and OCed
cpu speed)
Command = 0
PerfomanceLevel = 37 (This speed is stable for me without SOD)
ScreenOffPerfomanceLevel = 20
SettlingTime = 10

each performance step is equivilant to 19.2 mhz

Close Registry editor, insert SD card in the phone and soft reset the phone.
Once the phone has fully boot up, give it a minute before opening NetRippers Msm7kCpuSpeed and you should see your OCed cpu speed.
If your OC cpu speed isnt stable then take your SD card out,soft reset the phone and registry edit PerfomanceLevel to a lower value.

To restore back to phone default speed and uninstall oc software:
Remove SDcard
Soft reset
Uninstall

Tank has made some cool cabs in post 2.

SetCpuSpeed Touch Pro Settings.cab will eliminate the hassle of opening a reg editor and imports the above reg edits for you

SetCpuSpeed-1.0dTouchPro.cab is as Tank states "a moddified cab of the SetCpuSpeed-1.0d.cab with the settings already installed". I have tested it and it does work, just cancel out of the install when it gets to the config part and it will finish the install fine.

***IMPORTANT NOTE***
always install setcpuspeed to sd card. this give you the ability to remove your sd card, soft reset and adjust your speed via reg settings or uninstall should your phone lock up due to the overclock

All credit to Netripper, Oruam57, and Qzytor from XDA

Here is the cab of just the Touch Pro Reg tweaks from above and I also made a moddified cab of the SetCpuSpeed-1.0d.cab with the settings already installed

camera opens fast as everything else also, some apps seem to hang though maybe i should try a lower speed? googlemaps stopped unexpectedly an error screen popped up saying that. and it just reset itself...
it seems to happen when i use gps in google maps. i just set performance level to 35 hopefully it will work better.

A lower speed is probably the thing to try as we can only guess at the ability of different pieces of hardware to overclock in a stable manner. I would suggest perhaps going down 2 steps to 35 on the performance level key and see what happens.

the 35 has seemed to fix googlemaps from crashing. sweet...

this should work on a diamond no??

it should, yes

benchmarked with sktools

Before
528 MHZ Integer 326.6096 moves/usec
528 MHZ Floating Point 7.603 mwips

After
710 MHZ Integer 441.6989 moves/usec
710 MHZ Floating Point 10.226 mwips

thats roughly a 35% increase in performance

How big of hit does this cause on battery?

It doesn't seem to cause much of any noticeable hit on battery life.
Try it, it does uninstall cleanly if it doesn't work out.
