do not push any further than 1.2ghz first for heat concerns and second any higher and 2 cores will be disabled, quad mode does not support over 1.2ghz

and now about the heat, ofcourse it will heat, you are locking the CPU at top speed, 72c is perfectly normal for CPU and the battery should be around 48c any higher temp on the battery is considered over heating

now this will vary from device to device, no two chips are alike in this terms, and ofcourse will vary depending on your ambeint temps, yesterday in an air conditioned room it didn't even cross 60c CPU

you will have to judge for yourself, if you find the temps are bad lower them to 1.0, even 800mhz the idea is to prevent the sharp drops

finally mass effects heats the device like an oven (its not officially optimized for the One X) so be careful with that game

as for NOVA3 is not nearly pushing it so no temps worries with it

ripetide and sonic are moderate

shadowgun THD uses the quad and the only optimization you need for that game is supercharger and interactive gov on stock clocks, it heats a bit more than sonic and ripetide

silicon cover! :eek: DON'T TOUCH THE CLOCKS :D

maybe i should add it as a warning lol
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
I guess that's the downside of having a white One X, it easily gets dirty without some kind of a protection lol :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
but the good thing about silicon cover they r easily removed ;)
[HTC One X] Pointlol:
:O I've had my white one x pretty much since launch, never got dirty lol.
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
It's just an old habit of mine :D First 6 months the phone will receive the best of cares, after that it's pretty much "meh whatever" lol.

Guess I will remove the cover when I'm in the mood for some heavy gaming sessions. ;)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
ok my iFriend just bought an iphone 4s

out of box on the usb syncing

its as hot as during gaming on the HOX

iPhone 4s' A5 is dual core CPU @ 800mhz (dual mode) / 4x2 (8) core GPU @ 250 mhz 45nm

HOX's T3 is a quad CPU @ 1200mhz (quad mode) / 4+8 (12) core GPU @ 533mhz 40nm

if you ask me the HOX is quiet acceptable
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
Personally I rarely experience such heat while gaming on my old iPhone 4 thus why I'm being a bit more careful with my HoX.

But then again, I don't use any cover on the iPhone and overall the CPU / GPU on the HoX packs a lot more power so can't really compare :)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
lol the old iPhone is a not a multi core chip bro, completely different heat envelope

the Desire HD with single s2 was cool at feel even when OC @ 1.5ghz, i did not heat until you reached 1.7ghz

the Sensation with dual s4 used to heat up mad @ 1.2ghz during normal operation

dont compare single cores to these multi core beasts

Apple downclocked from 1ghz on the iPhone 4 to 800mzh on the dual core iPhone 4s for this exact reason

the iPad3 is the worst so far with its dual 1ghz CPU and 4x4 (16) GPU @ 45nm with metal body and massive battery, it heats like a pancake

the real problem with the HOX heat is that it leaks to the screen and affects your touch feel
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
Not to mention the back part near the camera feels pretty hot too.

Nonetheless, your one hour test shows that the phone is capable of handling the heat :D

4.0.4 is coming soon .. Football is uploading his ROM. Hope there are some improvement in terms of gaming :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
new update from HTC? :D

awesome!!! 1.29 > 2.05 that means a big update guys!!!!!!
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
Awesome! Any ETA?
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
The link is already up at Football's ROM thread :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
This from the google play Sonic 4 episode II page, its really the game fault

if you notice when you exit the game it remains running in the background (task manager)
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
I'm surprised companies like Sega would use UrbanAirship.

In regards to Sonic 4 Episode 2, I'm sort of glad that there's a Lite version available, else it would have been a waste of money until Sega fixes the issue.

The moment I saw how bad it ran, I went ahead and got the game on the Playstation 3.

A shame tho, it would have been cool to show off to friends by playing it on a big screen with a BT controller :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
my new fav I love my hox gaming settings :D

. New beta base 2.05.405.2

. Faux kernel 003b7!!

. supercharger die hard patch

. as usual option 9 agressive minfrees

. interactive governor

nova 3 full effects running awesome :D
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
Are these recommended settings now ;)?

Faux 003b7 doesn't OC does it?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes!!! no OC and no added heat

ill have to update this thread tomorrow
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
Thanks, I'll try these as well!
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Updated OP to reflect the new base

stock kernel on the new base has issues in interactive governor and you can not control the minimum clock so the only choice is custom kernel at this moment

Im also now against the developer options method, supercharger patch and script manager supercharge widgets are the best choice

Finally Franco r10 kernel bests faux 003b7, Interactive governor on franco rocks! and the only choice for those who want to squeeze more from their One X using the new leaked base

Check the video below the game is fairly enjoyable now! in later sections its actually more 60fps, to be honest i'm impressed with T3 sadly we need to optimize the software ourselves
[HTC One X] geenyous:
What kernel are you using?

I am on Faux3b7 and cant set the CPU task in Tasker, its marked with a *.

Same on Franco r11, the above is not working on our phones.
[HTC One X] geenyous:
Save space on your SD by trimming games!

Had a look at those 1.2 GB of files that we need to play a game like Max Payne. Turns out most of it is localization, so I though why not delete all the languages I don't need anyway and safe myself some space.

Since Rockstar is not stupid, you can't simply delete the files as the game will think you have not completed the download and will attempt to redownload them at every start of the game.

But you can just replace the files with dummy files. :D

So now I have a fully featured Max Payne in english (original, I don't care for anything else) and it's around 400mbs of size, I saved myself 60% on storage!

I have attached the dummy files I used, just mount your "SD", go to Android/data/com.rockstar.maxpayne/files/MayPayne/ and replace the existing with the ones attached. Remove the language dummy files of the ones you want to keep first.

I am quite sure this works with other games too but haven't tested yet.

Update: Ok, turns out so far this only works with Max Payne, the other games I have don't have any localization files (was really hoping to cut something off Nova... ;) )
[HTC One X] hamdir:
thanks thats awesome
[HTC One X] dyna-storm:
hamdir, can give us a quick rundown of the pros and cons of using Franco kernel as compared to stock kernel in terms of gaming performance, heat etc?

I think that info would be useful :)

off-topic: I received my USB-HDMI cable yesterday and gave it a run. Riptide GP looks really good on the big screen monitor. Not to mentioned it popped a few eyeballs as well :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
for a very simple reason, Franco adjusted the interactive governor values and they work beautifully for games, we need to achieve minimum scaling during gaming

you can also set franco interactive values to the 1.29.401.11 stock kernel and any other custom kernel!

but the only dark horse in here is the new leaked base kernel, its refusing any tampering to clocks or cores, any attempt results in broken multicore

more explanation in the new post
[HTC One X] hamdir:
SetCPU 3.x gives us the ability to set a profile per game, which is great solution for the hox, now once you launch the game of choice it will automatically switch to interactive and whatever clocks you like, once you exit the game its back to the default governor of your choice!

simply add a profile and choose app to launch the profile, choose the interactive governor and what clocks you need for that game, you can leave the clocks untouched since the interactive governor once properly configured is a better solution

remember only set one game per profile or it wont work! also remember to choose moderate memfrees not super agressive, otherwise setcpu also get killed

this works great for franco and faux, which has the best values for gaming on interactive governor, it also have the most cleaned governor, interactive governor on franco and faux does not get stuck in non quad mode unlike the stock 1.29, 2.05 and many custom kernels (update faux kernel 004 series has broken interactive, use 003b11)

thankfully you can also use franco's values for the stock 1.29.401.11 kernel and any other custom kernel (like faux if you want swipetowak) but not the 2.05.401.2 kernel since its currently broken if you use anything other than ondemand and there is nothing we can do for it

using set cpu choose interactive and go to the governor tab, set the following values (thanks to franco)

tick both set on boot and set with profile boxes

happy scaling :D

for those still asking why do we have to suffer this with T3 its really simple

a game like temple run shows us why, by default the game doesn't scale the CPU high, this in reality means the GPU is also running at low clocks, for battery concerns Nvidia coupled the GPU clockspeed to the CPU speed, which is sadly behind the unstable frame rates in most games

I'm using a go maxspeed value 75 for my gaming and the results just speak for themselves, clocks never scale down unless on load less than 75%

I'm getting locked 60fps on shadowgun THD!!

don't lower this value too agressively do so not to waste battery needlessly

I've attached my SetCPU profiles as an example just extract to the root of sdcard
[HTC One X] hamdir:
guys hands down franco is the kernel for gaming, most kernels out there have a broken interactive governor

nova 3 remains smooth n playable

lower the "go maxspeed load" to 50 for even smoother Nova3 gameplay :D runs at 3 cores 1200-1400mhz

the heat haze after shooting is very smooth
[HTC One X] timlambo:
I'm also sticking to Franco for some time now, it is very nice and temple run is running super smooth with interactive. I can't even imagine it lagging, that's how smooth it runs. I can also say that eternity 3.4 worked well for the old base(1.29).

Have you tried TripNRaver kernel for the new base? I also can't get the new base of eternity to work with sense rom(Revonate). Have you tried the other kernel of eternity, the 0.92x one?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
i tried the eternity kernel 3.x which has the interactive bug of being stuck on 2 cores, also faux is not bad but no custom kernel out there has the optimized values for interactive like franco

i just played for 1:30 minutes nova 3 where i reduced the go maxspeed value to 50% awesomess :D nova 3 is seriously enjoyable

the lower you reduce this value the more the clocks will stay at maximum

yea its ridiculous temple run brave lags on the HOX (stock) when it runs 60fps on franco interactive

some app devs assume that a game isnt heavy and let it stick around medium clocks the problem in our case the GPU is linked to CPU, low CPU speed = low GPU speed which is a smart power saving idea but kinda of unconventional and hence the struggle
[HTC One X] ammurad:
I tried to set a profile for nova 3, however I'm not sure it works. Can I check clock speed when I have the game open?
[HTC One X] timlambo:
There is an setting in developer options which allows you to see cpu usage. Another way might be to have tegra stats in the background. I might be wrong, but sure this will work. Hamdir will know the answer.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
tegra stats is best way, make sure to put only one app per profile or it won't work

also stock kernel of base 2.05.401.2 doesn't work
[HTC One X] ammurad:
Got it, seems to be running nicely now after restart. Gotta say that with the normal on demand governer, virtua tennis lags unlike before when I had stock kernel. Strange. I'm using Franco r10
[HTC One X] hamdir:
the stock kernel of the new base has a newer and much better on-demand governor, but interactive on Franco beats it

Franco interactive seems the most optimal so far, temple run 60fps

shadowgun zero lag even with heavy action on screen

I never said franco on-demand is good or better

so in proper order Franco interactive values > new base on-demand > old base and kernels ondemand
[HTC One X] boyceuk:
great tips, thanks!
[HTC One X] pyroblazer:
Hey , when i installed set CPU by default had both the clocks at 1500, though the realtime scaling is low

Attaching a screen shot
[HTC One X] ammurad:
Do you have a custom kernel installed like Franco? Won't work in stock
[HTC One X] hamdir:
whoever didn't try tweaking the interactive values is missing out

using go maxspeed load 50 is showing me what tegra3 was meant to be on both Franco and Faux

t3 eats shadowgun THD for breakfast

and setcpu profiles are working perfectly you can even save them to the SD :D so now the process is completely transparent

you launch a game it switches to interactive, you exit its back to ondemand :D just remember never to include more than one app per profile otherwise it will simply not work

i can honestly say all our performance issues are 100% solved now even on stock memfrees i'm getting awesome gaming
[HTC One X] ammurad:
May be worth sharing the profiles so people don't have to re-enter the values for the same games?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
cool ill do that

by the way its hit nmiss for some games unless you dont mess with your minfrees

temple run works everytime but for ripetide sometimes it doesn't load it, or it loads and mid game it switches back to on-demand

you need to make sure SetCPU background process doesn't killed by aggressive minfrees

Ripetide just runs incredible when I chose interactive manually or with setcpu profiles + supercharged stock minfrees
[HTC One X] hamdir:
here are my setcpu profiles extract the file

inside zip and place on sdcard
[HTC One X] hosmsdos:
thanks for the tips they are awesome. its just the battery is draining so fast when i play games. i played like 6 ShodowGun and i lost 8%. According to this if i play like 30 min iam gonna lose 40% battery is it too much battery drain or this is normal. i am using Faux latest kernel
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
i dont think it "sends" it merely streams them
[HTC One X] Hoodeddeathman:
The One X does support DLNA and the music, photo and video apps have a play on function so you can stream to any DLNA device. This principle works fine for my WDTV. Just no gesture which isn't a big deal really.
[Trophy General] swbf2lord:
Not sure if this is allowed, not trying to advertise or anything though, I just don't think that many Trophy users go to the MP. If it's not allowed, then just delete.

I've been looking for an HTC Trophy for some time. I have a MP thread where I have stated such: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661366. If anyone wants to trade for a Droid RAZR, or I do have a 32GB Zune HD with limited edition Halo 3 box, please PM me.

(Like I said, just trying to inform Trophy owners, because I doubt most check the MP. If not allowed, please delete.)
[Trophy General] Lockett:
Once I receive the trophy and play around with it, see how well the signal is in my area, and my overall opinions on it, I may take you up on that. I'm using an Incredible 2 right now and have 0 service at my house when I had full service with my bionic. If the trophy lacks signal strength then I'm gonna have to ditch it.
[Trophy General] TheXev:
Lockett, have you tried to update your PRL with *228 option 2 (You can do this with all of your Verizon phones)? Also, go to Settings=>Cellular [Verizon] and set the roaming mode to CMDA only (otherwise it will attempt to find a GSM tower). Having it in Global mode is great for 911 service, but that's about it in the US.

The Incredible 2 is also a World Phone like the Verizon Trophy, so you can try the same thing. I think in Android, you go to settings, cellular and there should be a roaming option to change to CMDA only somewhere. Try that first because I get the funny feeling both the Trophy and Incredible 2 will have the same problem unless you do. I have crappy reception at my house, and if I leave my World Phones like my Touch Pro2 or my VZW Trophy in Global Mode, it will always try to pickup a GSM tower that is closer.

Just an idea, might be worth a shot.

Not to hijack the thread or anything swbf2lord, some people have done trades in this sub-forum, so its worth a shot to draw attention to both threads.
[Trophy General] Lockett:
Thanks for the tip. You can also dial on the dialer *#*#4636#*#* to access testing mode, go to phone settings, and select cdma only. That's what I usually do when using world phones. I don't know if this is just an android trick or if it'll work on WP7 too.
[Trophy General] worm-:
I have a brand NEW HTC Trophy, never been turned on, still has all the protective plastics on it for sale for 125$. Retail is over 400, and 179 right now with a 2 year contract.

I just traded my i717 note for the n7000. After reading random forums on here, i'm a bit flustered but hanging in there.

Just a question, I currently have this set up on my phone:

Android Version: 2.3.6

Baseband Version: N7000XXLP1

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.14-FM-2.0-g399c932 frank_m@virtualBox)

My questions are:

1) Is XXLP1 an ICS modem?

2) I want to revert this phone back to a good stock image. I was thinking a German image. What do you think? (so I can update to ICS stock/root)

Your help would be appreciated.
