Great job getting everything squared away with reporting speeds!!

I too am running that combination on v0.4.2 and it did me well over night right from flashing without charging it yet. :)

I also had good battery using wheatley and sio while running Sleshepic's kernel before going to this. Would you consider adding Wheatley to the next update as I would like to compare it head to head against smartass2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
One thing I did notice though is the phone isn't getting as hot as it used to which is a good thing. Still warm though but before it used to like burn my ear lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] prguzman1978:


I'm looking forward to using the latest kernel agat but I'm holding off til everything all good. But I will flash the latest wen I get home and will test it.

Agat, you are the man! But seriously you gotta stop releasing these when I'm asleep. Makes me look like a slacker. ;)

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Well after reinstalling and rebooting I'm back on 4.0 as this just gets way too sluggish over time. And not overclocking or nothing just installing and booting. I know I didn't give it a day or two or nothing but 4.0 just didn't give me these problems with pages loading and linpack scores on the 20s and 30s.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SweetwaterBurns:
I'd just like to confirm that I can't get it to budge past 1200, either. Lower frequencies are fine, but I've benchmarks and checked stats in setcpu/cpuspy/etc and it never goes above 1200 no matter the governor/scheduler.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MicrosoftBug:
How do you change the scheduler in ExTweaks? I've looked but see nothing that resembles it.

I'm just back on 4.0 until next release. It just works better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
Can you explain better how?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
I must be flashing wrong... looks like once i set the setcpu to say 300-1400 smartass... seems like the chip doesnt buldge over 1200 UNLESS i choose " performance "... BUT once i drop out of setcpu, no frills, ect... the settings dont seem to stick.. i reopen and even though the settings are @ 1400, the current clock always drops back to 1200 even set on performance 1400-1400 or 1500-1500....

could just be the way im flashing... it seems tondo the same on blu kuban and Goodness.....idk... any ideas..!?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
Don't undervolt the cpu? Not a clue to be honest, I don't even get the whole OC thing on phones other than for the novelty of 'I did it'
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Well for one it doesn't bog down ur device like 4.2. There's a free app on the play store called linpack for android which will read the mflops on ur device. Basically like an out put off ur processor. A good score on our device is between 70 and 80. If u overclock to let's say 1.3ghz u would see readings between 80 and 85. But with 4.2 u never see readings jumping up when overclocked and if u just install it and don't touch anything after like 15 min u r seeing readings in the 20s and 30s and things like Facebook take a long time to load. But this is not the case with 4.0. Sorry for the book but that was the best explanation of what's going on with my device so I hope that helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Me too. Ur not alone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
I don't use benchmarks to unrealistic I base off real use. But you said yours is slowing down like lagging, mine hasn't done that but I don't oc no real need to maybe you have something always running in the background. By the way I'm on Blazer 1.5 what ROM you running?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Honestly I don't get 70-80 on linpack on my phone.

I'm always between 43-48. I was on stock kernels as well.

However when I overclocked to 200-1400 my AnTuTu benchmark went from 63XX to 67XX.

And in AnTuTu under device info it did show 200-1400 frequency.

I'm not sure I understand what you guys mean that higher frequencies don't stick.

Once I change frequency/governor/scheduler in one app all other apps showing same settings.

Since they can read the settings and speeds that should mean kernel is reporting them and reporting them correctly

Another thing I don't understand is what you guys mean but 1400-1400 or 1500-1500 settings.

Are you setting min freq same as max?

PS. To verify if setting stick I use AnTuTu, CPUSpy, Rom Toolbox, NoFrills, ExTweaks, Tegrak.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
I'm just stock rooted FF18 and not Overclocked and also not alone with what's going on with my device. 4.0 does however let u under and overclock and the settings will stick where 4.2 does not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
GOODNESS .3 with .4.2 Multithreaded running smartass2 / sio 200 / 1200
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
On multithread running smartassv2/sio/200-1400 just got 75.466

I was talking about single thread. Getting 47-48 there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
This is where I am almost all the time on 4.0 and on 4.2 I'm stuck in the 30s. Also tegrak doesn't even change values even after moving the sliders on 4.2. It's all good though man. I'm more than happy on 4.0 and as I see it if works don't fix it lol. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
What combo/settings are you running to get 80 on linpack?

After applying the changes in ExTweaks do you click "Apply Changes" button?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
It means a real lot more of a difference than just I did it. It makes ur phone a lot faster and greatly improves gaming especially. It's not for everyone though and if u have no use for it great. But a lot of us do benefit from it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Not a thing. Just installing kernel and running stock. This is where a multi-core device should sit. My 3d which is not even rooted sees the same score.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
U should be seeing low 90s on multithreaded if clocked that high.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
May be it's my phone but I never seen it.

Not even fresh outa box with all stock.

My single threads are always in mid 40's and multithread in hight 60's low 70's.

Will flash sfhubs full stock restore and try again. It's been a while since I've been on stock rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
I'm only trying setcpu and tegrak and on 4.0 they do stick and change but not on 4.2. 4.2 however is the first kernel I've actually seen sliders on setcpu.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
You see slider because the frequencies are populated correctly now.

I had an error/typo in source and frequencies set in cpufreq.c file weren't populated/reported correctly.

As I said couple of times before I'm not as good as you guys might think I am.

I'm learning as I go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Well it does have a lot to do with what's running also. I use a task killer constantly and get best readings after I kill the 35 apps running on my phone at boot lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I run task killer constantly since my POS Samsung Moment days.

I am having a similar problem. I have UC Set to 900 mhz, cpu spy shows 10 hours in 1200mhz (minimal usage). A similar problem was happening with .4.0, with UC to 1000mhz, it still showed cpu usage at 1200 mhz, just not for 10 hours. Basically, UC doesnt work for me, .and 4.2 has shown the cpu to hang at 1200mhz. Battery has only been off charger for almost 4 hours with minimal usage, 23%.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] njfoses:
I used extweaks to set my min freq to 100 instead of 200. Cpu spy still shows 200 and not 100. I also rebooted and no change.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Compusmurf:
Agat,

What they are saying and what I confirm is also happenening...

I can set my cpu using ANY of the tools to 1.4. AND apply it.

BUT the system never registers it. Putting it under load should cause the cpu readings in CPU spy to show processor usage at 1.4.

However, the readings in CPU Spy are always between the stock values only. 200-1200

All apps, ExTweak, SetCpu "show" that it took the speed, but the system never uses it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewilley2008:
Same here OC still doesn't seem fully functional
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xb0n3z:
Cant we just use SETCPU with 4.2 and set our voltages and mhz settings that way, not having to use extweaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Yes u can but the problem everyone is having is the settings won't change.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
You should be able to use any of CPU control apps to set your frequency and voltage.

What I'm wondering about is that CPU spy can see all the frequencies and showing them as unused.

Don't know yet why it's happening.

Today is my 28th anniversary and I'm taking my wife out.

So not much will be done today. But I'll get back to this tomorrow and will try to figure out what is wrong.

She did stick with me thru all the loses and problems. I guess now is out time to enjoy the stability we have.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
On another note.

What you guys think. Is it possible that we don't see other frequencies because of limitations of the app and because frequencies aren't there?

Are any of you using any other app except CPU Spy to see what frequencies are used?

I have tried to find an app for that but no dice yet. Too many to look thru.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Congrats man! Forget how people have lives sometimes lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
if you goto info on setcpu and click " short bench " you can see the frequency jump from 200 to 1200 but never goes past that even if i have it set @ 1400-1500.... just looks like the sliders underclock perfect, they " slide " to 1.6ghz but the chip isnt wanting to go any further then 1.2.? im sure its probly something very simple but enjoy your evening, no hurry.. we just chillin here man!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Agat I actually wanted to see if I could get the same better life you are getting so I matched your settings based on the screen shot you posted. Set my cap speed at 1100mhz and both CPU spy and quandrant standard reported my current frequency was still reaching 1200mhz . I also rebooted and retested and same thing. What I really want to be sure of is that my system is honoring the under voltage settings I am using. I need to find a utility that not only shows me CPU frequencies but also current CPU voltage being utilized.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Think about it. The faster the processor the faster the phone. Overclocking makes ur phone lightening fast for whatever ur doing whether it be playing games, surfing the web...the list goes on and on. No it's not kind on ur battery life but for 10 bucks on Amazon I got 2 batteries and a wall charger so I never actually plug my phone in unless I'm doing something with it on the pc. Best investment ever. Especially how fast this thing boots and the cord they give u is really short. I hate being stuck to a wall more than anything lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Quick update.

Tried different settings with different governors.

Apparently only performance governor reflects OC correctly and I see higher frequencies in CPUSpy table.

I think the problem is in the governors script. They must be clocking CPU within it's factory limits allowing us to have more frequencies and more steps

which can help to preserve battery but not letting the CUP clock higher.

Tomorrow I'll try to find help from someone with more knowledge and experience and may be we can make all governors work same way.

Now I need testers.

If any one has way to check/test OTG please pm me.

I would like to test v0.4.3 but I don't have any device to connect to phone to test OTG.

Please let me know and I'll give you link in PM.

Don't want to raise hopes yet but it might work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
Im not having over or underproblems...? Ive tried using Tegrak and Rom Toolbox, both successfully.

The only variable I can think of is Placebo, and further the only thing placebo does that could effect it is bus_freq_lock 0

Is that maybe the cause?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nsxla:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LBEA6I/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 (includes a battery) I bought this awhile back, great investment. The only con is, charging the spare battery on this charging station will take a while.

Thanks for explaining the concept of overclocking :cyclops: but lets not kid ourselves, going to 1400 or even 1600 from 1200 isn't going to make your web pages load faster. Only beneficiary I am guessing are games. I would just like examples of apps that you plan on running while the phone is OCED (not games) where you believe there will a definite improvement.

I tried Performance in setup @1400 and the UI felt the same to me.

Anyhow OCing on this kernel hasn't been sorted out yet, but i will give it a go after it is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Does CPUSpy show higher frequencies as well?

That's the only place where OC is not showing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
My fault, I missed that detail.

I dont have cpuspy.

When everybody started talking about I asked (different thread) for a link and was ignored... Did a lazy search and decided it wasnt worth the effort. Ill dl it and let you know.

This was cheaper when I got it but there's other ones too. At any rate if u can't see how overclocking makes everything faster then I honestly don't know what to tell u man. Ur ramping up the core speed of ur device which will in turn speed up every task u perform. I don't know of any other way to explain it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
But if u go on ur 4.0 kernel and try overclocking on any other governor they all let u do it. I was getting linpacks in the 90s on all governors and I think this was the case also with all of ur kernels so far except 4.2. The problem was getting the speed to stick. It would eventually bog everything down.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Here I'm on ur 4.0 kernel Overclocked to 1.3 ghz on Pegasusq governor.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
And then there u go just minutes later. Had to reboot. Ur so close though man. I have faith u will get it! :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Never used this app. But this was with the same Overclocked settings I had earlier.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] njfoses:
Just to update, if i set min freq to 100 in extweaks and apply cpu spy will now show the 100 MHZ state. Once i reboot the device cpuspy will not show the 100 MHZ state even though nothing has changed in extweaks. This is all using smartassv2 gov.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SweetwaterBurns:
Are you using tegrak? There should be a 1200 state on there somewhere if you are just running stock 4.0...

If you're using tegrak, you're by passing agats oc code, which would be why you are able to oc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Yes I was using tegrak and that mflop reading of 5 was after messing with setcpu while Overclocked. Tegrak would show the overclock but setcpu would not. Readings r usually in the 30s and 40s though rather than high 80s usually about 15 min after being Overclocked and normally requires a reboot. Also on 4.2 u can't even overclock at all. Not even with tegrak and tegrak is the only thing that allows u to on 4.0.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
There could easily be a probelem that makes OC appear slower... For instance would be that silly "max events per second" setting people are so fond of. If you go supersonic in a traffoc jam all you do is crash
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Not sure man. I don't really understand a lot about this stuff. I just know how to move sliders and hit apply on boot lol. And just hope it works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SweetwaterBurns:
I'm guessing the reason it doesn't work on 4.2 is because agat fixed the state reporting bug and tegrak probably uses one of the newly exposed interfaces to check for possible incompatibilities and conflicts.

I'm willing to bet that's why you have the major slowdown, agats code and tegrak(which loads its own code to oc) are conflicting somewhere. The other possibility is that you have your cpu under volted to much and that is causing it to draw more amperage which can lead to over heating and the cpu throttling itself until it cools down to a safe level.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
I believe your right.. seems like tegrak is the only way i was able to " overclock " but since it loads its own drivers im sure it was conflicting.. thats why after a min or so my phone would be laggy as hell... no way close to a 1.5ghz speed.. but seems like this amazing dev will work out.. he is taking on this alone it almost looks like.....lets throw this guy a beer or at least a olive garden dinner.. :)
