I was discussing something with anlther member on clock speeds and something was revealed. You know for the prime, normal performance top speeds are 1.4Ghz on a single core and 1.3Ghz on 4 cores. well Nvidia site that has spec on Tegra3 says something different now. It now states that the top speed is 1.5Ghz on a single core and 1.4Ghz on multiple cores.

Can people who are stock or rooted and haven't overclocked check this out? you can use CPU spy. put your prime in performance mode then use CPU spy to see what the top speed enabled actually is. don't report the speed not in use on the bottom. only look at the top speed actually in use and not in sleep. another way to tell is use an app like system tuner or system panel light and look at the Max speed the bar meter hits. it'll be fluctuating. CPU spy the best way.

I want to see if this new update might of actually increased the top speeds on stock devices. here is the link to look at the new tegra3 spec showing the increased speeds.

Ok buddy. Trying to work with ya here. I am completely stock, and not rooted.

Just installed CPU spy, wasnt sure if I needed to be rooted to run this, but it installed fine and seems to be working.

Anything you need me/us to run and get some clock speeds?

Here are my results on performance, doesn't appear to break 1400.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mcoupe:
Wow, sure would love me some pie after seeing your attachment.....:D

Why does it say unused states..1600 and 1500mhz....are these available and not used?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] David Dee:
This is using system tuner. You just asked the million dollar question??
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tylermaciaszek:
This is the specs: for the Tegra 3 chip, Asus chose not to use the 1.5 and clock it down to 1.4/1.3 to save battery life most likely!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
it says unused states because although we do have those speeds in stock kernel, Asus has them disabled by default. only way to activate them is to root and use an app like EzOverclock or ATP tweaks App or vipermod to enable those overclocked speeds. the best one is Ezoverclock app. all you need to be is rooted. you install the app and you're instantly overclocked to top speed of 1.6Ghz. it changes the speeds on Asus quicksettings. after install, Performance mode will now be 1.6Ghz, balanced is 1.4Ghz and battery savings stays the same at 1Ghz. the other great thing about this app is that you can manually change what speed you want each power mode to be. after installing app, by default it'll be set to what I listed above. all those apps or programs are free and in developement section of prime.

edit: also rooting, unlocking device, and running a custom rom from developemnet section can overclock you also.

based on what people posted so far, it seems nvidia is just leasting the top speed capable on the chip, period. that top speed spec is actually for the new infinity pad. infinity pad will come stock with those top speeds of 1.5Ghz on single or 1.4Ghz on 4 cores.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] desert_mouse:
My max is also at 1.4 GHz. Nothing above that has ever been reached.

Obviously I'm running stock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Andreas527:
Had also seen that they bump it to 1.5ghz..

And the specifications for HTC ONE X with Tegra 3 also shows the 1.5ghz..

http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one-x/#specs

Wonder If the devices that coming now have a little updated Tegra 3 chip. Can it be Tegra 3+ ?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mcoupe:
Ok, got ya.

Hope we helped with the discussion.

So at 1.6 are people noticing a big improvement in performance?

I guess the developed ROMS that we have available come with custom kernels? I see people pushing 1.8 and hoping for 2.0. How stable is such numbers, and are these modes raising temps and crushing battery life?

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

As far as I understand, on this side of the pond we wont have the Tegra 3 in the One X. It looks like we will get a dual core chip.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
its not an updated tegra3 chip. exact same one in prime except on the software side they unlocked the higher speeds by default. out the box. with prime we already seeing those speeds and even higher being rooted and/or unlocked running custom roms or kernels. we even have achieved 1.8Ghz overclock now. really all you need is root to achieve 1.6Ghz. So technically prime already more powerful than these new tegra3 chips I'm future tablets, if rooted of course. Nvidia is skipping over the tegra3+ chip. they going straight tl Tegra4 which is expected to be keplar based. it will be on the 28 or 22nm die. meaning more power and more battery efficient. plus whatever bells n whistles nvidia adds tl it or tweaks it for. Tech sites expect Tegra4 to release q4 of this year. Tegra4 was already sent out to all major manufacturers back in December. so they testing it out now. Tegra4 will definitely change the market up again and something to be excited for.

yes, thanks for the quick tests from everyone. it was helpful in trying to figure out if new specs was included in new update.

yes 1.6Ghz gives it a very good boost in performance. thing is prime performs great on stock speeds also. but overclocking to 1.6Ghz will make it that much more faster. web pages will load alot faster. ui will be alot faster.

another trick to speed up your prime is to go into settings. then go into developer options. enable the force gpu rendering. I've been running this for a while and seen a big boost in performance and fluidity of the UI and other things. even in web browsing. you can also cut off the windows and transition animations. cutting those off will make everything nearly instant. like switching between apps, going from one screen to homescreen, etc...all of that will dramatically make your prime feel faster. all transitions will be instant instead of slight pause or gradual transition. screens will instantly pop to the next.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
Or to improve yields; this is the first Tegra 3 product ever. I'm sure there were fabrication teething issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] htcplussony:
I thought those were newer revision/step of the same Tegra3 chip. ARM recently started offering a "Processor Optimization Pack" for A9s.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Any links? As I've never seen any tech articles speak of it or mentioned an upgraded tegra3 chip. All talk has been on tegra3 itself or more recently tegra4 talk has been popping up alot more lately.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
Thanks for the info on overclocking. We had talked about it before when I first say the higher speeds (disabled) and we talked about battery life - Good if you only run overclock for games & stuff, if I recall correctly. I have wanted to overclock for some time, but have been resistant to leaving it oc'd. What is the best way to toggle the OC on and off, vs. removing the app: Should I just run balanced for most use, then flip to performance for gaming, etc?

EDIT: Also if Nvidia is stating those are the top speed capabilities, does that dash hopes for craking these up to 1.7 / 1.8 and beyond? (To Asus Eee Pad Infinity... And beyond!) If so, that kinda sucks, though the tablet is plenty fast as it stands... we all like to see how far we can take stuff though... It's our nature. I have a 12 Cylinder Jaguar and it was hopelessly under tuned and oversmogged putting out just over 300 hp. Not any more, hehe... ;)

ACTUALLY the AT&T HTC One X with S4 snap dragon chip, release date just got pushed back toMay 6th. http://www.talkandroid.com/103253-a...idForums+(Android+News,+Rumours,+and+Updates)

A GOOD REASON for that could be because there were various reports a few weeks back that qualcomm was having manufacturing issues with the S4 snapdragon chip. Production had completely stopped for some reason. Some kind of manufacturing problem that was said to lead to most device announced having Snapdragon S4 chip being delayed. The source on manufacturing issue was posted in that thread. That was a couple or a few weeks back when I posted that. I think S4 chip hasn't been produced in any real bulk amount yet, especially with issues with their manufacturing process that caused S4 production to stop.

So the longer S4 chip gets delayed, the better it will be for Tegra3. It'll be that much longer Tegra3 holding superiority over other android chips. If the first S4 chip having tablet doesn't show till may or June at earliest, then Tegra3 would've secured top spot in Android for 6months. FOR a chip to be successful in mobile market it really only needs to be dominant for 4-6 months. This is based off of how fast the mobile tech industry is moving.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] David Dee:
I ran a benchmark on Antutu and it showed a CPU frequency of 1600.. See attached.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mcoupe:
I had been meaning to start a thread about something like this......

Galaxy S3....what is Nvidea's thought on the Exynos quad core chip. Lots of rumors have that clocked at 1.8-2.0 mhz and with 2gb of RAM.

If this holds true, it looks like this phone will be more powerful than our Prime.

OK, what exactly is going on here....:confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
the best and easiest overclocking method is simply installing EzOverclock app. all you have to be is rooted. as soon as you install it. you're instantly overclocked. your Asus power mode quicksettings are instantly changed also. immediately after install, your performance mode is 1.6Ghz, balanced is 1.4Ghz, and battery savings mode stays the same at 1Ghz. Now you can easily change any of those modes within the app if you choose. my setup is Performance 1.6Ghz, balanced is 1.2Ghz, and battery savings is 1Ghz. So I normally run on balanced mode(1.2Ghz). whenever I want to run on 1.6Ghz, I just press Asus quicksetting Performance mode. remember that when ever the tablet resets or powers off and on, it'll default to balanced mode(for me 1.2Ghz).

so this app makes it seemless and simple to overclock. you use the regular asus power modes like you always do. then the ability to changes the speeds of those modes of you choose is priceless.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
I have been using EZoverclock since day 1 I got my Prime. Running Eco Mode at 1 GHz, Balanced at 1 GHz too and Performance to 1.6GHz.

I hate how the screen looks in eco mode, so im almost always in balanced @1ghz, so far i can play anything, even 1080p videos thru HDMI withouth lag, and still have great battery.

For heavier stuff, multi task and so on, then to super 1.6ghz mode it goes :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FrBart:
Stock. NEVER over 1400
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
we had reports like that before that was false. the real way to find out is to use CPU spy. its a free app From the market. if you see the 1.6Ghz in a deep sleep or unused state, then its not enabled. only way to enable that speed is through root & overclocking or custom rom

thanks for the great idea. having it @ 1Ghz doesn't cause the screen to decrease quality. its actually cutting on economy mode that does it. so setting your balanced to 1ghz is a great idea to counter that as screen quality stays the same and looks good. I'm trying your setup now. I'm amazed how fast everything is still @ 1ghz. I will try this set up for a while and see how it goes. so far it seems I can't hardly tell the difference. everything still loads up fast. but I know my battery will last alot longer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] di11igaf:
Almost every chip out is like that, ie-the first phone with second Gen snapdragon was clocked at 800mhz, but the chips default speed was 1.5 ghz, and could be overclocked to close to 2.0ghz. There is already code for 1.7 in the kernel, I'm pretty sure I saw 1.8 as well.

Also, the only thing 'force gpu rendering' will do is enable gpu rendering on older apps that were compiled for earlier versions of android without the gpu rendering flag. Any newer apps compiled for ICS, and most definately almost all default ics apps(definately the stock launcher)are already gpu accelerated by default, so forcing it will not do anything. Launcher and the UI in ics is already gpu accelerated, enabling it again in the settings won't do anything for fluidity.

[XPERIA X8 General] arsynenko:
I'm convinced, that phone is locked, as unlocked bootloader requires special kernel ;)

And your bro haven't got it yet

To make sure:

A) Download S1tool : From http://xdaforums.com/show...0&postcount=26

B) Shut Down Phone

C) Open S1tool, Click on DO JOB, Press Back on phone, Connect it to PC.

D) Look For Line RUNNING S1_EROM VER "x8A029"

E) if x is "r" then it is unlocked

F) if x is "R" then locked

G) Look For Line "XXXX SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE"

H) if XXXX is "NOT RECOGNIZED" then sorry, it can't be unlocked.

get Sixaxis from the market, put your controller in pairing mode & with Sixaxis just pair it with your Androind device. Then you will need to get the key map of the game you will be playing & load it onto Sixaxis. That's what I am looking for, for Fifa 12.

It's not too difficult to create the profiles yourself. Just take a screenshot of the game controls, then in the Sixaxis app go to Preferences->Touch Emulation->Edit Touch Profiles. Next, change the background and start adding buttons to match up with the controls. The only trick is with the analog stick - make sure you resize it to match the virtual joystick radius. It shouldn't take more than a minute to set up.

The game automatically switch the controller between offensive and defense. And the button are on the same place.

Just do the touch profiles with offensive screenshot. When ju loose the ball it goes to defense. When you win back the ball it switch to offensive. And the buttons are always on the same place, just gets different function.

Hi all,

I have just installed lightning rom 2.5 and I have noticed that under both Phone and Contacts, there are missing tabs.

e.g.

Under Phone, the contacts tab is missing. I used to be able to slide to the right for more tabs.

How do I go about adding more tabs?

I tried searching but every time I add the word "tab" I get the Samsung Galaxy Tablet threads instead.

Also, under Security, the "SIM Change Alert" and "Remote controls" doesn't seem to be working, every time I tried checking the box, it freezes for awhile and then it says the setup has stopped working.

I wanted to post this in the lightning rom thread, but there's a 10 post restriction, and as such, I am posting here.

I hope someone can kindly help me.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I don't know about remote control or sim change alert, but it is a well known change in ICS that those tabs are removed purposely, in their infinite wisdom. I don't agree with it, but it is what it is. One of the many reasons I'm staying on Gingerbread until find an overwhelming reason to go to ICS.

So if this ROM is ICS based, that's your answer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derrace:
Ah ic, do you know if anyone has managed to enable these tabs again in ICS?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Not off the top of my head. Search for it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derrace:
Ya, will do.

Interestingly enough, My Samsung Nexus S is on ICS as well, but it has contacts in the phone app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
That's cause Nexus S is running AOSP android, and Galaxy S series (including the GS2) runs TouchWiz, which Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, have modded to their liking.

Edit to add: Lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock, so it uses the same system apps. This will hold true for any ROM based on Samsung stock, unless the ROM chef changes out specific apps, like the phone in this case.

Thanks for the clarification. I am new to android and have been reading up on how to root/flash custom Rom on my TF201, SG2 and NS one by one. Took me several hours of reading and searching, but I have managed to get them all rooted/flashed without bricking any of them :p

This forum is loaded with heaps of info, but sometimes it's a bit hard to search for some specific stuff;the 10 post limitation on custom rom threads make it hard for me to ask for help from the author.

Just wondering... if S2's lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock (non AOSP), how do people change out specific apps?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You need to be rooted, and you replace certain apk files in the /system/app folder. But you need to be certain to use files compatible with your particular build of Android.

I don't think so. I think it's more to do with your pc and how much current it can pass through the usb sockets. I may be open to correction, but my logic is, if the phone can receive ac/dc power through a usb cable it must be the source of the power that's the issue, not the phone/cable.
