Using Siyah 4.1.3 set gpu to 400@1100 and getting nearly 7000 on antutu!

Weird and best thing is it runs much cooler than before, i was having bad overheating problems but now its cool even just did 3 benchmarks in a row and still cool! Strange!

Using new lulzactiveq and cfq.
[Galaxy S II General] cool-face:
Mali in s2 can run on 520mhz but is probably unstable and on beta4 on siyah kernel 440 and 520 ferquency steps are removed. This info comes from http://www.gokhanmoral.com/ Somebody can download beta3 and test it :D
[Galaxy S II General] tolis626:
New steps were removed because some users were getting kernel panics regardless of if they were overclocking that much or not.520MHz was very stable on my S2.Read before spreading false information.Nothing personal,don't get me wrong.

[Galaxy S II General] mercurial89:
That's some wicked scores you both manage to get. Makes me feel proud to own a s2:highfive::good:
[Galaxy S II General] BlackRainX:
At 520 it is total beast! :D
[Galaxy S II General] ronald_loulan:
520???!!!!

Just for the benchmark sake??

Or using it daily??
[Galaxy S II General] Obagleyfreer:
I tried out Chanfire3D and found it slowed my phone down, I can normally run GTA3 with all graphcs settings as high as they can go and it runs smooth and fast. When I ran it with Chainfire 3D it was stuttering and lagging.......weird!

I haven't bothered with it after that, it might be better now as that was 3 months ago
[Galaxy S II General] BlackRainX:
I used it daily with zero problems.. the phone was like a new..

then gokhanmoral removed the GPU changes.. i did stay with that kernel 2 weeks and then moved to latest (currently 4.1.5)

Was getting awesome results.. will post screens soon
[Galaxy S II General] Da Vikster:
I tried running my GPU at 400MHz but my benchmark score on Egypt haven't changed... Is there any way of me determining the clock speed of the GPU during the benchmark or not? :S

Edit: Turns out the overclock has in fact been applied, and my score has indeed gone up... My bad....

However, in that light, it's actually pretty incredible... The fact that I'm getting scores that scare my sister's SIII despite having a phone that's a year older is no small feat...
[Galaxy S II General] Captain_Doug:
Other Mali-400mp4's

So overclocking the GPU is amazing. Especially the results you guys have gotten. Just awesome. I'm curious as to what other devices this could apply to. To be specific, the Archos Gamepad is going to be released soon and looks like a really great device. It is running the same GPU as the SGS II but with a RK3066 processor(1.6ghz dual core). The mali-400mp4 inside it though is clocked slightly below the SGS II's GPU. Is there a way(theoretically speaking) to use this same method on a different device? I'm pretty sure Archos is pretty open with its source code so it shouldn't be that hard to develop for. What do you guys think?
[Galaxy S II General] tolis626:
Well,if you're right and Archos is indeed open,meaning it doesn't screw us up when messing with kernel stuff,it should be possible.Best case scenario is that the method used on the S2/S3 works there too.I can't see it being impossible though.
[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
Use Android tuner widget for cpu and battery temps, enter a game, play 20 min, hit home button and look aft the widget.

My cpu at 1.4ghz 1.1275v and 400 gpu with 1.150v has 80_90c temps. At default clocks i see 75_80c in games like dead space, nfs,etc.

Now in winter, in the summer i think that it will raise another 10c hitting thermal throtting.
[Galaxy S II General] Captain_Doug:
At least stock..

I know that they use stock android and I remember seeing some link to their source code. Would be awesome. Thanks for the reply.

edit: I found it. If you go to arctablet(dot)com/blog/forum/firmware-development/rk3066-kernel-source-code/

I assume this is what you mean by having the kernel right?
[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
I came to the conclusion that mali in latest s2 versions( august, sept) cant handle 400 mhz at 1.150v.

At 333mhz with siyah or.dorimanx.is workin good.

[Galaxy S II General] SPBoss:
Vpll off and 1150mv is fine for 400mhz
[Galaxy S II General] Chairmansaab:
Yup, same here, anything below 1150mV is unstable.

Its work fine at 1150mV.
[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
At 400 it seems ok but after 1-2 hours of gaming it freeze whole phone. Like now I play defense zone hd, huge game, when it fills the ram phone freeze.

Maybe older s2 phones are better, mines from august and sept 12 are not so good on overclock.

[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
I see an old s2 from april 2011, his gpu support 520 mhz at 1.150. It use this clock for over an year.

Mine seems to work at 400 with 1.150v for 1-2 hours in games, but no more hours than that, and wife s2 restart at 400 with 1.150v.

[Galaxy S II General] Saiyajin:
Hey guys,

just fiddeling around with STweaks and the latest Siyah Kernel. Just ran a few 3D Mark Ice Storm Benches.

330 MHz - 1593 3DMarks

400 MHz - 2040 3DMarks

440 MHz - 2102 3DMarks

Average Score of the SGS2 in the 3DMark Database is 1697 3DMarks.

Voltage for the highest Freq. Step was always set to 1200 mV. CPU ist overclocked to 1,4 GHz. Has anyone a clue how to stress test the Phone over time, to see if the settings are stable for every day use?
[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
For 400 1.150v is enough, but for 440 if you get 1.200v you are lucky.

Play gta3, nfs mw, other games 1 hour each at least , and see if you get sod, freeze, restarts in 2-3 weeks.
[Galaxy S II General] impossibile40:
Hi guys, i found a good way for battery consuption performance and hot problems too.

whith Dorimax kernel i undervolt and underclock my S2 at 800mhz and set the GPU at 400mhz at 1150mhz (i dont try less)

Results? No lag in heavy 3D games because 800mhz of CPU doesn't limit the GPU performance and i've a battery temp above 36° C :good:
[Galaxy S II General] SPBoss:
800mhz is not enough for games like gta
[Galaxy S II General] tolis626:
Most games are only GPU-intensive.The only games you may have problems with when underclocking the CPU are games with rich AI,like for example Gameloft's FPS games (NOVA 3 and Modern Combat 3 and 4 in particular) or Real Racing 3.Most of the time,though,there won't be a noticeable difference,as today's games for mobile devices aren't even near in complexity or sophistication to PC and console games(eg,there is no anisotropic filtering).
[Galaxy S II General] impossibile40:
yep and if try 900mhz game like GTA run well ^^
[Galaxy S II General] Kyuuba:
Well, mine is now running at 520 Mhz using 1.150 mV and the performance is incredible, using Dorimanx kernel 8.16 and stock jelly bean 4.1.2 FOP.
[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
In latest dorimanx kernel plus jb 412, it work 400mhz/1.150v 100% stable , but for 520 at 1.300v it freeze in few seconds in nfs most wanted for example.

Usually for 520mhz you need 1.400v or more.

Try real racing3, nfs most wanted 20-30 minutes or so.

Because if you manage 520 at 1.150v you have not an golden gpu, but an diamond one
[Galaxy S II General] Kyuuba:
Who knows, I play dead trigger for many hours too, especially when playing arena, with the latest 8.17 Dorimanx kernel.

The phone gets hot but not to bother, also very smooth performance and no lag whatsoever, and with real racing 3 as well.
[Galaxy S II General] Sonic_AFB:
the mine same than yours, 520 Mhz with 1.150mV tested for many hours and yeah is incredible, full battery completely discharged in 4 hours of gaming, any chance to go over 520 Mhz?

Edit: a real monster!
[Galaxy S II General] Kyuuba:
Nowadays the max is 520 Mhz dude.
[Galaxy S II General] ShonkUK:
I have just started overclocking my GT-N7000 (Note)

Im running it at

[Galaxy S II General] bogdan1980:
On my note i was using ics 4.0.4 and an kernel with overclock, 1.6ghz,400gpu. But still had lag compared to s2,because of large resolution. It's super for reading books, play movies, etc, but for games it had performance of an iphone 3. Plus superbrick bug.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ew:
I find the slide to answer the phone very inconvenient. I would like to be able to answer the phone either by pressing a soft (on screen) button or even a hard button. I have tried a number of market packages that offer an answer button, but they do not activate until a number of rings have passed. Anybody have any suggestions?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
This behavior probably varies between roms, so maybe you can find one with an option for what you want.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ew:
I have not found a ROM with that option yet. If anyone knows of one I would appreciate your help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
It's not a bad idea. You could post a feature request somewhere for it, I guess. Maybe make a poll, see if there is interest?
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
Right as the only other thread for this update is a "Europe" one, and that HTC obviously thinks the UK is not in Europe, I've started this thread/campaign for comments on this update!

We all know the rest of Europe have got this, so can we please keep this thread UK/Ireland based only!

Come on HTC your UK/Ireland batch of customers are waiting yet again!!!

Please note we are talking about the very latest OTA update here, as per the title of the thread, do not post comments that relate to the earlier update version 1.29.401.7
[HTC One X] Tomo1971:
In other words a post for everyone to say "i've not got the update yet..."
[HTC One X] R3DH3AD:
Well in the spirit of being British I will wait patiently and complain. I've not got it yet. Come on HTC Don't make us wait 2 weeks again.

"Phase Beam" live wallpaper still doesn't work. Now, to wait for 1.30.
[HTC One X] ghori1989:
I have a unbranded handset. No update for me. Not sure if i want to go down the manual RUU route again.

[HTC One X] kingdeacon:
I'm just going to wait again, 2 weeks will go fast and at least it gets tested by others in europe before we get it.

I've got this mobile for 2 years so couple of weeks is nothing, and I must admit the updates are coming thick and fast compared with the desire I had.

I will be checking couple of times a day though lol

[HTC One X] Ripley:

[HTC One X] middlep1:
Please read through the threads in the One X Forum.

There are two 1.29.xxx updates the has just received the first one that doesn't fix the flicker, the second one is doing the rounds in Europe but not the UK yet, we have to wait another week

The latest update when it arrives in the UK will be 1.29.401.11 and the flickering will take a little time to sort itself out while the phone monitors voltage over the course of a days/weeks
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Apps yes (as you do with all RUUs), data on SD card no (but I backed up to be safe)
[HTC One X] Goku80:
same here:D branded phone so it is worse for us who have a branded one:mad: and one more thing i am disappointed about is that on my s2 say if i was on gingerbread 2.3.5 and a new custom rom based on 2.3.6 took my fancy i could easily update everything and say i was on the latest and greatest firmware..and that was the same with ICS..on my s2 i was on cm9 4.0.4 now here i do not even know if by flashing the latest custom rom i am actually fully updated or not:mad: hence why i am pissed off about:mad:
[HTC One X] anoniemouse:
Wonder how long we will have to wait this time & i also wonder if HTC have thought up any new excuses for why we are waiting.
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
We need to find out why UK is being delayed all the time, HTC should give answers!

The first OTA (1.28) was received at the same time as everyone else - however, these two 1.29 updates have both been delayed.

... I hope its not a trend for the UK.
[HTC One X] ewok666:
Thanks!

I had previously only tried the manual installation of the OTA (edit the installer script to update via CWM and then use fastboot to flash the firmware.zip) and while that DOES work it requires a relock and then another unlock which wipes the phone and renders that approach pretty useless. BTW, does anyone know whether the RUU needs a relocked bootloader?
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Yes it does (apparently)
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
Ok, I'm now below 70% battery, flicker used to start below 72% on min brightness. I can't see any hint of flicker yet. Below 50% it was visible at med brightness so I might post again later. I don't expect it to be fixed strait away based on what others are saying about it taking time but there seems to be a difference already.
[HTC One X] det66:
LMFAO that is funny

You're on Vodafone and you just got .11?

[HTC One X] dpk:
Unbranded and just picked this up after a manual check.

My SD storage seems to have returned (Will plug into PC later to see if it remains), can't comment on flicker as never had that issue.

Anyone else find that there was about a second delay when switching the device on with the .7 update? Not sure if it's just me but seems to be fixed as well.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
I think he has an unbranded handset but is on Vodafone (as am I)

[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
I didn't think I had any storage issues bit just before dling a 1.2gb film from watch yesterday I happened to notice I had 18.5 gb free so I presume it we.t down to 17.3gb. After the update I have 19.5gb free so I guess I was missing around 2.2gb. Glad to have it back even if I didn't know it was missing.

Is there any kind of changelog for this update, official or otherwise?
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Misleading title :-(
[HTC One X] monkeytennis:
Much faster seemingly now and multi tasking works as it should.fab update.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Why it is misleading? It mentions the software version rolling out so if you have a branded phone then you know it's not for you
[HTC One X] kevpuk:
All seems good to me.....but I was (luckily ?!) not effected by any issues prior to this either.
[HTC One X] :
- New HBOOT: 0.95, New Radio: 1.1204.105.14, Kernel version: 2.6.39.4-gc9932b1

- Screen flickering should resolve itself within two weeks of using this update. Some voltage values were changed in the update.

- The SD card storage issue

- The bug that caused taiwanese text to be shown on the task management screen in the french locale has been resolved

- Wifi fixes

- Battery reporting (or calibration) is reported to be affected by the update in some way or the other

- Multitasking tweaks
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
How is the title misleading? :s

The 1.29.401.11 FOTA is out in UK/Ireland now.
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Title dont say for unbranded :D O2 rolling out 1.29 this week, just thought this was the thread was saying it out...

That's why when I clicked it and found it wasn't for branded phones anyway so therefore misleading :p
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
Yes it does. You only need the first clue about these things to understand it...

1.29.401.11

It's the 401 that tells you. You should probably spend some time familiarising yourself with this stuff before you make yourself look stupid.

Updating Now!! :D
[HTC One X] lezperez:
Updated earlier, everything seems more responsive. However, I didn't have screen flicker before, now I do!!!! I'm hoping this two week bedding in time resolves it.
[HTC One X] kazgor:
Interesting i didn't know this either.. so i guess that confirms what people in the office has been saying all along.. (ie i'm stupid) haha. :D

anyhow... my unbranded phone updated today... and i got back 2GB, even though the phone has yet to see sign of a USB Cable going to the PC.. :)
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
Posted in my screen flicker thread, but pertinent to this as well...

I know that it has been said many times already but I just had a reply from my contact at HTC (he's been off for a few days) confirming that 1.29.xxx.11 will recalibrate the screen over the course of a few days. I had no reason to disbelieve anyone else's info but to hear it from the horses mouth (from my perspective) is more final.

Let's face it... 3 updates in quick succession, so many positive changes, all promises kept, HTC F****in' nailed it. Eat your heart out Samsung!

I know HTC are as grateful for to us for reporting in detail, patience and loyalty as we are with them for the resolution, so thanks to all of you too!

I know some regions will still be waiting for this fix but you can rest assured that the light is not only at the end of the tunnel, but is blinding and approaching fast.
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Well never knew that thanks. Don't take it to heart.
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
According to Asus, Google just changed their certification procedure and now requires updates to be released around weekends. Who knows if that's true...
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
Not taken to heart, I couldn't care less how much responsibility any one takes to educate/help themselves unless that someone is having a pop at someone else who was actually quite correct. You were complaining that the thread title was misleading, it wasn't so I told you why it wasn't. Nothing more.
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
Not thrilled with this update; it seems to have introduced significant wifi problems. (I now get wifi locking up over and over, every couple of minutes.)

No such problems previously with WiFi, although I've been having trouble with near-constant cell dropouts for a few seconds at a time.
[HTC One X] vsnlweb:
Sweet... Updating to 1.29.401.11 Right now... Thank god I didn't have to wait an exorbitant amount of time. And to think I was going to update using the RUU after work today.

Received the update notification this morning. So far so good.
[HTC One X] vinnyutd6899:
Great to have update! but is it normal to wipe everything off my 7 home screens after it updated?
[HTC One X] vsnlweb:
Nope thats not normal. I just did the OTA update and it didn't remove anything from my phone, screen wise or app wise. What exactly did it remove?
[HTC One X] vinnyutd6899:
Just reset my home screens back to default had to reapply everything again.

not a big problem just thought it was strange.
[HTC One X] theslugman:
Updated earlier, took a look at my battery usage, to find my battery mysteriously went up by around 5%ish after the update, when my phone wasn't one charge! My phone was on charge before and after the update, but it definitely has recognised it has more juice! Also multitasking is much better and more responsive :)
[HTC One X] Exanimus:
For me this didn't work :(
[HTC One X] atrako1973:
No ota here,may be because we are not in Europe geographicly speaking
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
You do know this thread and the ota it's discussing is months out of date right?
[HTC One X] Exanimus:
I HAVE the 1.29 and saw today when i checked for updates that there was a new OTA.

The thing is that i tried to flash it on my rooted HOX (stock rom)

and i flashed the 1.29 recovery before applying the OTA, but this time it didn't work. (it worked when i applied the 1.29 OTA a while ago)

i have done several searches but didn't find any new tactics for applying the OTA :S

i noticed i forgot to quote the post i replied on from the start :P this is what didn't work for me when i tried to apply the newest OTA:

As you can hopefully tell from the amount of people eager to obtain the updates OTA, we are not all into flashing our phones (for various reasons!).

However easy peasy, you might find it, and make out about this procedure.

This forum is full of threads where the method your advising has gone wrong in one shape or another, and this method is not endorsed by HTC.

did the ruu - sooo easy so if you've got an unbranded phone... Takes less than ten minutes...

[HTC One X] Nit3m4re:
Maybe the UK models we were shipped don't need it? Just a suggestion
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
Here is a suggestion, add up roughly all the files you have on your "phone storage" memory then go check in the phone if it tallys.

If it tallys and you don't have any other issues with the phone, then I'd agree you won't need it! :)
[HTC One X] Cloudane:
Mine definitely needs it. It's going to be a couple of weeks though if the previous update is anything to go by.

Manual flashing seems to suggest warranty voiding shenanigans (edit: or not, see next reply) so I will pass on that for now.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Flashing the

OFFICIAL

RUU does not void your warranty at all. It's been the same process for ALL HTC handsets and is an easy way to install a complete update rather than wait for an OTA
