intruders, it seems to keep losing the clock setting and reverting to 180 even without turning the device onto standby, just normal usage and docking to ActiveSync. Is this a known issue?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tcd2004:
I did some benchmarks in tcpmp and it seems like my numbers were a little low for some reason. Running the stock 180mhz tcpmp was running around 108% and when i changed the clock to 260mhz it only went to around 164% average speed. It just seems like my numbers should be higher. Also, one of the main reasons i wanted this was to get tomtom to open faster and it doesnt seem to open more than a couple seconds earlier. it has always ran great while navigating the opening time is just slow. Ive read of people on here having great improvements in tomtom, does this include the open time for you guys? I timed mine at about 12 seconds to open, on my treo it was almost instant...

"? Fix for continuous overclocking 240Mhz"

No luck here. I have the same issue. It works perfectly, until I go to standby. Once I hit standby, it will reboot a short while afterwards.

If I keep it active, it handles 240 without any problems at all.

Re: ? Fix for continuous overclocking 240Mhz

I installed overclock 240, but my device reboots itself so now and then.

I also got the same thing after i have used tomtom, i close the application

tomtom shuts down and i go back to the today screen and afther a few seconds it´s rebooting.

Is there a fix for this or must i install another program? please help :cry:

Oily hopefully will give us a fix soon - when he posts new version of omapscaler i will put together a new cab. My soft resets were v . infrequent so this must be device/ what software you have installed dependent.

I think help is needed.

Hi All,

I'm new in the forum but have been reading for a while. A bit of background first, just coming off the back of having an SPVC500, which was OK, now the comany have gone and given me an MDA CompactII, real name a Charmer I think.

Now I must say I held out real hope on this one, it had the potential of fulfilling all the ares the SPV did not, and I was pleased to see it had the latest version of WM when it arrived. First impression was good, looks like HTC can roll a PDA and phone into one. After pushing it a little bit, and using it like a phone! I noticed it was a slow beast, worse than the old SPV and that was no rocketship. So after doing some googling came across this XDA forum and have read and experiemnted with OMAPCLOCK.

I have been running both versions, plain 240 and then scaler so I could play with frequencies. After reading some of the posts I believed this could be the cure to the lack of pace I had been encountering. Basic results were as follows:

1. Speed was good, menus appeared fast and phone features instant (what a fix I thought!)

2. Power off problems - damn thing would turn itself off all the time, I mean every 10 mins. Then needed to take the battery out to restart (when I smelled some burning from inside - not good I thought !)

3. Activesync - would connect for about 2mins, so sometimes would sync, mostly would not.

4. When I installed the OMAPCLOCK CAB file it never setup the startup link, I had to do it manually so I was never 100% certain if it was correct, but the annoying notification went away so assumed it was right. Stuck a -clock 240 on the end ?

5. Smell of burning and the other mentions above made me conclude this just doesn't really work for the Charmer so went about uninstalling - damn difficult, had to do everything manually and some were still being used etc. Now managed to get everyting I can see off but I still get the damn cannot execute link notification !

Oh yes for 2 & 3 I did try all frequencies, right back to the default 180Hz and the issues were still present.

So therefore I suppose my cry for help is thus

- Has anyone else got OMAPCLOCK running reliably on a charmer, and if so can you share your setup

- And until I get a more reliable setup can somebody please tell me how I remove all the install off the system, primarily so I don't get the bloody execute link error notification after every soft reset.

Thanks in advance for listening to my drivel, and appreciate any help :oops: [/i]
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Re: I think help is needed.

Firstly it looks like you installed the omapclock cab without the startup link and thats why you had to do it manually, secondly it sounds like you still have a lnk in your windows\startup folder thats why the 'cannot start exe' error keeps coming up - so you need to delete the lnk responsible. As the charmer has the same processor and same basic hardware as the wizard and prophet - i can see no reason why not, when set up correctly it should'nt work well.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] triac:
startup link

Thanks for that advice Mark. Couple more questions:

- which CAB contains the link ? and are there any install instructions ?

I did try all of them and none seemed to install the link.

- I don't have any link left in my startup folder, for sure, but the error occurs when I hit the power (soft start), isn't that initiated by something else ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] triac:
found it

OK the link error was dur to a left over from Memmaid - oops my fault.

Tried a reinstall of Omap240 and the same result as before. The Charmer does not like running overclocked. Drops Activesync all the time and powers off after a coulple on mins on battery.

I would be really interested if anyone else has overclocked the T-Mobile Compact II version succesfully. It may be the ROM, my version is 2.6.2.27 WWE.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Re: startup link

this cab contains the link - just copy to device and click on the cab through file explorer and it will install.

It does work - double checked it on my device.

Try running your device at 240 using the attached cab, then if all is well add notification via memaid again. Or if your device is not stable at 240 mhz try at 228 Mhz - but you will have to edit the lnk in the startup folder to -clock 228.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sdpnoy:

OmapClockPlus (Helper app for OmapClock)

Hi all,

I've been using OmapClock for my Wizard. It works fine and its really great program.

I've not read all this thread yet but I would like to introduce a tiny helper application (OmapClockPlus) for OmapClock.

OmapClockPlus is a tiny helper application for OmapClock.

It keeps overclock speed when resume or soft-reset. (in case of Wizard)

I just tested on my HTC Wizard.

Download here => http://www.nicque.com/PQz

P.S: OmapClockPlus is only compiled for WM2005 QVGA.

cheers,

tom
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Miguel-:
Re: OmapClockPlus (Helper app for OmapClock)

Thank you, Tom!

Tried it by making the o/c link (except I couldn't make it work with 30# before link, but it works fine without it. I made the link with totalcommander) in windows/start menu/programs, registered OmapClockPlus and that was it.

I tested it by setting the clock to normal speed -> suspended it for 15sec -> back on -> TCPMP showed the O/C successfull. If the phone is suspended and immediately switched on it wont O/C(about 10 .. 15s in suspended state was enough).

So this works atleast with my wizard

I have not had enough time to develop this app. (I made it three hours.)

so, The app's dialog might be only fitted on QVGA screen.

also, compiled for WM2005 and tested on HTC Wizard.

Yup, I agree. I tried OCing with smartskey, but the speed wasn't sticking after waking up. I'd put battery status on to monitor the speed, so I switched to using BS for the OCing, and it's working fine, definately snappy now. I've lost track of the number of battery meters on my phone though, sigh.

only one complaint

Only complain i have is that the battery status program thinks my device is running at 195mhz (i imagine it gets the speed from the specs) when really its running at 180mhz. So i when the battery status shows me my device is overclocked at 260mhz, omapclock is telling its actually 240mhz. is there any way to fix this? i used the cpu speed in omap to 264 (theres no 260) and now the battery status program says 286mhz. please help.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Re: only one complaint

:wink: - 195Mhz is the true default speed not 180Mhz and when it shows 260Mhz that is correct - omapclock consule is the one in error. They use different multiply no's but batterystatus is correct. If you dont believe that use sktools and under device info it will give you the true clock speed.

Summary?

Hi to all the hard workers who have helped and followed this thread since the start.

I have a request…

Would someone find it in their hearts to write a simple step by step and watch out for an pitfall that this discussion has covered?

I just don’t have time to read every post in the 17 pages to double check everything.

Wish I did.

Would it be possible to make a sticky for this that could be updated when new things come to light?

Would really like to speed up my little wizard but as said…. Too much to rake through in so little time….

Thanks for your help.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] temparoo:
Procedure...

Save OmapClock.exe in \Windows folder on the device

Make a shortcut anywhere (maybe programs but NOT the StarUp folder yet in case speed is unstable!) OR copy over the shortcuts supplied (Editable in WinXP Notepad)

Seems these shortcuts made in XP work and the ones made in the PPC don't

Run OmapClock at various speeds to test stability (If speed is stable then continue otherwise test at lower speed)

Create a shortcut to OmapClock.exe in \Windows\Startup and alter properties to stable speed eg. "\Windows\OmapClock.exe" –clock 240

Change to 228 or 240 or 252 etc. to the clock speed you found stable

Soft reset and test

Suspending the device will reset the device back to the default speed

This is a secondary test to make sure the device does not lock up!

To auto overclock after reset too...

Open MemMaid and choose the Notification queue button/tab on the bottom (second icon from left) then click the ADD button

For program, click the browse button and browse to the shortcut you created in \Windows\Startup

From the event dropdown choose “The device woke up” and click ADD

It should display...

When: The device woke up

Argument: AppRunAfterWakeup

Select "Start Up Program" (Fourth icon from left to right)

click ADD and find the shortcut file

Close MemMaid and soft reset

Your Clock speed will should remain at the specified speed even when the device comes out of suspend

SWITCHES & EXAMPLES

-------------------

OmapClock -clock <freq> [-confirm] [-launch <path> [-restore]]

-clock <freq>

installs frequency of the processor in MHZ

-confirm

require acknowledgements of the change the frequency

-launch <path>

start the program (the way to reference in rabbit earses!)

-restore

restore former frequency after termination of the uncared-for program (is ignored unless it is given parameter -launch)

Sequence parameter importances has not.

The Examples:

OmapClock -clock 132

OmapClock -clock 144 -confirm

OmapClock -clock 144 -launch "\Storage Card\Test.exe" -restore

To overclock for a certain program and then restore to normal when ended...

Change programs shortcut in \Windows\Start menu to...

OmapClock -clock 216 -launch "\Program Folder\Program.exe" -restore

Re: Procedure...

You say to "run OmapClock at various speeds to test stability". How do I accomplish this? I mean, how do I change the speeds - What do I click on? Should I go into Smartskey?

Thanks in advance?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] oallostavros:
Re: Procedure...

Ok, forget that last message - for some reason, nothing happened when I opened omapclock the first time so I got confused.

Here's my question. In the smartski .ini file, it says the following:

; set OMAPCLOCK to the clock if you want to use omapclock and automatically

; set the clock speed after wakeup, you should put OmapClock.exe in the same

; directory of smartskey.exe

; REMEMBER TO REMOVE ';' BEFORE THE LINE TO ENABLE IT

;OMAPCLOCK=264

;REMOVEDUPSDDAEMON=0

I don't know what this means - can someone translate - should I delete the semicolon that is right in front of "omapclock = 264"?

Should I also delete anything else (like the explanation of what to do)?

Lastly, my Omapclock always says it is running at 280 when I turn on my MDA. I can change it back down, but once I leave my MDA alone for a while and it turns itself off, I'll turn it back on and it'll be up to 280 again.

???confused
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] freeyayo50:
Let me understand this. You have to copy the OmapClock.exe to /Windows folder. Than go to a program in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and change its shortcut to OmapClock -clock 235 -launch "\Storage Card\Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe" -restore or \Program files\TCPMP\player.exe -restore. Is this right??

I have a 8125 btw.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Nearly - you forgot '' '' and the .exe extension to omapclock.exe. Should be

''omapclock.exe'' -clock235 -launch "\Storage Card\Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe" -restore

This will give you the omapclock.exe icon however if you want the skype icon use.

''omapclock.exe'' -clock235 -launch "\Storage Card\Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe"?\Storage Card\Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe,-0 -restore

Re: Procedure...

How long does it take for it to restore the clock speed after being in the suspend state?? If the device is in the suspend state for less than 15 sec than i turn it back on and check the speed, it resets it to the default 180MHz. If i leave it longer in the suspend state it restores it to my overclocked speed. Is that normal???

Which is a better method, using MemMaid or Omapclockplus v0.0.4??

Thanx
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:

It wont keep the restore option in the shortcut command when i use the

omapclock.exe'' -clock228 -launch "\Program Files\TCPMP.exe
