well I've had mine on 312mhz (sometimes 299mhz depending on how I feel lol!) for nearly a month now and no probs here.
[Touch GSM General] Fatguy:
Does anyone know where can i get this CPUScaller from? :eek:

And how does this CPUScaller work? :eek:

is it intergate together with Battery Status??? :eek:

Pls help me as when i try to use Battery Status my batt runs low very fast regardless of wat CPU speed i set it to............. :(
[Touch GSM General] jmpmjmpm:
use cpu scaler, i have boost at 312, normal max at 247 and lowest at 66 (i think) seems to work well, gives me power when I need it and conserves battery life and less burden on the cpu when I dont
[Touch GSM General] stekkis:
When using batterystatus for overclocking, do you have to do a softreset afterwards? Or is the cpu immediate overclocked to the selected speed?
[Touch GSM General] Seed123:
immediately
[Touch GSM General] stekkis:
ok thanks, so no softreset afterwards :)
[Touch GSM General] Br4hm4:
I have had mine overclocked at a few different speeds, I am wondering if you all have had any issues for those that have left it at a higher speed and had the lines in the home screen. I see them at 273 and anything higher.
[Touch GSM General] grypho:
I don't have it overclocked I like it as it is but, strangely when I did it, my touch ran a bit slow instead of increasing its performance?
[Touch GSM General] lukeap69:
at 273, my touch is still okay, higher than that, i see some distortion in colour
[Touch GSM General] HTC456:
my touch is rockstable at 299Mhz

but 312mhz is a problem - crashing after few minutes
[Touch GSM General] Xtriny:
I Have some problem with batteryStatus and Wisbar. I overclocked my touch and it works fine, but when I install Wisbar, batterystatus stoped working. anyone has this problem?
[Touch GSM General] enja:
you need to trail and error with those setting doesnt mean you increase your clock speed ur device must run faster. maybe u can set a lower clock speed
[Touch GSM General] matiaij:
Hi guys, it's better installing battery status on the device memory or in the card memory?

thanks
[Touch GSM General] Seed123:
Device memory..
[Touch GSM General] tejot:
are there any reasons (i.e. in some particular situations) to prefer storage then storage card to location of software?
[Touch GSM General] bydandie:
With a storage card there is a slight delay on wakeup. With apps that need to display information quickly (ie Today screen apps and some system apps) this can cause issue. As a rule of thumb all apps with an active today plugin should go on the main storage and system apps like batterystatus that interact with the system hardware all the time should also go there.
[Touch GSM General] s337247:
4GB MicroSD card

is HTC Touch supporting 4GB MicroSD Card?

Thanks
[Touch GSM General] grypho:
yes yes and yes, it supports all the current microSDHC cards available. :-)
[Touch GSM General] stekkis:
I just dl the "latest" version on the site, but it says version 202 build 194 on the first screen of the setup.exe file... That is not the latest version?
[Touch GSM General] daniel_rh:
Activate the Error Reporting in your phone Settings to see if a process hangs when your Touch is Overclocked, maybe that is the problem, If your Error Reporting setting is set to off you can't see if something is doing wrong and Windows restart the service and everything takes more time when restaring the service. I don't know if this is your case but something like this was happening to me some weeks ago, the file shel32.dll was crashing sometimes making slow all the phone in the process.
[Touch GSM General] grypho:
Ok, thanks for your response and help, I'll give it a try :)
[Touch GSM General] mcano:
I was able to overclock my touch to 278MHz without any problems, On lower frequencies I saw some stripes like interlaced picture or something, but when I overclocked even more stripes disapeared, 278 is my limit. I can't download batery status program because page is down, and I can't find alternative download so my clock speed restores when after wakeup. I would like to have some today plugin for easy overclock and underclock ;-)

50% more MHz gives me 50% more framerate while watching movie, so it really works.
[Touch GSM General] stevej26uk:
cant download battery status the link is dead, anyone post a cab for it?

pocket hack master

have u tried pocket hack master 4.20.043 on htc touch?:confused:
[Touch GSM General] Timmietje:
I did the same, I clocked it to 299 Mhz. Left it there for 1.5 days, but I accidentaly forgot the cpuscaler. Nou I have a dark spot somewhere right-below the middle.

I guess garantuee is not an option :(
[Touch GSM General] ricerz:
im with telus in canada, mine is already at 400mhz...should i still up it a bit? lol
[Touch GSM General] Bingoig11:
Little question, I just dl build 203 but in menus I have no CpuScaler tab...

Only:

General

Indicator

Tools

Omap

CallTime

About.

Do you know why? :confused:
[Touch GSM General] cacahahacaca:
All I know is that the overclocking settings are in the "Omap" tab...
[Touch GSM General] Bingoig11:
Yep, I found it and I can overclock it.

But I would like to configure CPU Scaler to tell my Touch to underclock to 99Mhz when not used. ;)
[Touch GSM General] Yunick:
What you need is this
[Touch GSM General] cacahahacaca:
How do you guys find the links to chi-tai's Windows Mobile apps? I couldn't find them on the main website.
[Touch GSM General] cacahahacaca:
That's awesome, thanks!

What are people's optimal settings for the dynamic clocking?
[Touch GSM General] Yunick:
You are welcome. I just Googled battery status and voila! :)

I use 143, 201, 247.. And boost to 273mhz.. Dont know if it's optimal, but a bit on the safer side I guess..
[Touch GSM General] mrblackcat:
hum, I'm using it at 312mhz and i have no problems, do you think that it may cause any damage to the phone?

thks:cool:
[Touch GSM General] dakkush:
I overclocked it to 312 and it restarted but when it turns on it shuts down before I can lower it to its original

help!!!!
[Touch GSM General] warriorvibhu:
If you just want to overclock without too many hassles you can also try

XcpuScalar 3.03

Its a nice little app
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
v1.04

Ths..

it is v1.04.

Installed it.

It says 'unregistered copy"

How are we going to register it ??
[Touch GSM General] DUKE09:
can you upload somewhere like rapid or 4shared maybe zshare wherever you like :) cos i can't open the web page that you linked from Turkiye :(
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
247 mhz is rebooting

I am using battery status - I am clocking it at 247 mhz at my Touch Enhanced.

But it reboots itself.

as suggested enabled wake up .. and remember last .. and disabled after reboot ...

any suggestion..
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
Batterystatus is not compatible with the 128mb ram version of HTC Touch. Offcours you can use it for all other options buth not the overclock option.
[Touch GSM General] Bingoig11:
Works fine! Thanks!
[Touch GSM General] Bazzz66:
With me it works fine, and I have an Enhanched and I have BatteryStatus 1.04.203 Beta 4 installed
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
Strange, there are allot people that have problems when overclock a elfin.
[Touch GSM General] cirian75:
Now Im worryied, I've just had a phone call that my elfin has been delivered at home.

Ive bought it knowing.

A- the memory has been doubled :)

B- I can overclock a little but :confused:
[Touch GSM General] cirian75:
Installed V 0.0.203 CAB

worked ok for a few hours at 201 rest and 247 boost.

then started to not wanting to load the programe to adjust the on screen info, so have uninstalled :(
[Touch GSM General] tspinning:
Warning- Do NOT install this app on HTC SPRINT (US) Touch- it will brick your phone....

:edit:

(Battery Status 1.04)

:(

::re-edit::

ok, almost bricked, still use at your own risk!

I was able to get into my device after 7 (yes 7) soft reset attempts, some w/ activesync, some without (note w/ activesync my PC actually dropped IP on soft reset, i have no idea how this happened but it pissed me off to no end as I was working...) anyway to get it to come to life again (it would boot to today, but no buttons worked, clock was updated w/ correct time, could not receive phone calls, could not soft off)

i had to remove SD card (app was installed locally... not sure why this helped) and I actually gave up and attempted a HARD reset- it failed (didn't prompt for hard reset) just brought me into today, as it was loading i kept holding down my two hardware buttons, and hit the camera button too, just for fun, well it launched camera, i closed that, and was able to get into settings and remove the app, i have no idea why this worked, and if i was a holy man i'd be thanking someone upstairs from saving me a full rebuild...
[Touch GSM General] dwl:
overclock works

I've been using the batteryStatus program to overclock at 247 for a couple of weeks now with no problems. I have the Rogers (gsm) version of the Touch. I initially chose a lower overclock and then stepped up to 247. Yes, I am a little hesitant to push further, buts still, it all works fine for me.
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
Overclocking Touch XL

as Batterystatus caused to rebooting itself, I installed xcpuscalar onto my Touch Elfin XL.

But starange issue is that max adjustment is 200 Mhz. only...

Anyone has the same issue.??.
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
pics are releated topic above..

as you can see it seems not overclocking. It is for underclocking I think..

is not it strange ?

or else where is the mistake..

note: all are avare of the std cpu of Touch is 201Mhz..
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Hey guys. First of all, sorry for beeing so ignorent ;)

I'm thinking of overclocking my HTC Touch.

So i have a few questions about it.

- Is it safe to overclock your mobile?

- Which program should i use?

- How much overclocking do you recommend?

If you got any other knowledge, that i should know - please tell me ;)

Thanks!
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
- As long you dont overclock to much it's all fine

- Batterystatus (you can find here on forum)

- 247 is most used here. The max safe is 260 mhz, everything above can damage your device and will decrease your batterylife.
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Thanks for the answer..

- Can i you see major changes, after overclocking?
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
If you set to 247 you will see it right away, it's actualy allot faster on 247 Mhz.
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Okay. Thanks!

I'll probably try it ;)
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Here you say, that BatteryStatus cant be used for 128mb ram.

What should i use then, cause i've got 128mb ram Touch ..
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
Read some post after, with some people it works fine and with others not. Your choice to try.
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Okay..

If it doesn't work, i can remove it again right? ;)
[Touch GSM General] NP9660:
Yupz, just like all other programs it can be removed.
[Touch GSM General] Ahc2008:
Thanks alot then.
[Touch GSM General] jakub_w:
batterystatus completely locked up my phone, ive done like 5 soft resets and i still cant use my phone (htc touch, bell)

i may have to do a hard reset?? any help?
[Touch GSM General] TRNSLN:
If you have choose the overclock on wakeup before, you have to do a hardreset...
[Touch GSM General] jakub_w:
no i didnt do any overclocking at all, i just installed the program, selected to put the speed displayed on the today screen, and now its all locked up.
[Touch GSM General] jakub_w:
ok i just did about 10 soft resets, finally working again, uninstalled.

not trying that again...
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
xcpuscalar

That is why I did try another program called XCPUSCALAR.

But, program behaves strange...

do not shove overclocking percentages or Mhz, but only underclocking..

If anyone uses the same program and receives the same result, let s share here..
[Touch GSM General] Himself™:
I've used 247MHz on mine since day one (Rogers enh version). I was stable at 273 but noticed an increase in Battery drainage, so just went back to 247.
[Touch GSM General] Jamolah:
Anybody notice a problem with the cube when you have BatteryStatus installed?

I have the 201Mhz (rogers) touch and when I installed BatteryStatus I noticed when you bring up the HTC cube and move from one side to the other the cube will shutdown itself. I tried with overclocking and without, same result.

When I remove BatteryStatus the cube behaves normally. I really want to overclock my phone.

Anybody else experienced this problem?
[Touch GSM General] ikarus:
try build 0266 :)
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
which one?

this one ; -BatteryStatusExt.1.04.build_0266.CAB

or this one; -BatteryStatusExt.1.04.UPXed.build_0266.CAB
[Touch GSM General] Jamolah:
Thanks ikarus, the build worked.

The Touch Cube no longer shuts-down when you move from one side to the other.

By the way this is a great product.
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
Even 266 is not ok onto my elfin.

In any overclock level It always reboots..
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
same here.... I tried 2 different builds (including 266) and had to uninstall totally to stop the erratic behavior.
[Touch GSM General] Don_Alexadro:
overclocked at 299

I have overclocked mine at 299 Mhz for some motnhs now and works like a charm!!!

I am worndering if it is really possible to overclock it at 400Mhz as someone mentioned here......
[Touch GSM General] rockerduck:
My Touch XL 128/256 runs at 247mhz since sunday evening with scaler enabled without problems (b266)

The "add boost" option must be disabled since strange behaviours occur...
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
hmmm...did you use the "lock on wakeup" option? I did and wonder if it is the problem?
[Touch GSM General] rockerduck:
No, it's disabled;

I enabled "Overclock on wakeup" and disabled "Remember last frequency..."
[Touch GSM General] Vector-SS:
Hello everyone!

I have one question. I just keep on seeing 247 , 260 , 273, 299, and 312. Howcome its always these numbers? Whats the technical reasoning behind it? When you put the original speed of 201, do you HAVE TO choose those above mentioned numbers for overclocking?
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
Thanks....I'll give that a go. :)
[Touch GSM General] Jamolah:
Has anybody noticed some slight flicker on the Today screen and KeyPad screen?

It only happens sometimes and this is with OverClocking turned ON or OFF. When I quit BatteryStatus, no more flicker. And I have the latest build 0266
[Touch GSM General] booterr:
I got this problem when the CPU was about 100 Mhz, when using the "CPU Scaler" feature (min. 100Mhz, Org. 201Mhz, Max. 286Mhz).

Now the Minimum value is set to 149Mhz, no flicker
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
my issues continue, even with the above recommendations (on the touch enhanced). oh well.
[Touch GSM General] hachisix:
Works fine on mine Elfin (Rogers). Wondering why theres so much discrepancy. But it does work wonders.

Same here, if I turn on 'add boost' it'll freeze from time to time. So as of now its off and I'm happy at 247mhz.
[Touch GSM General] ikarus:
the UPXed version is a compressed version and i recommend to use the normal version (not UPXed).

first of all: don't be lazy and read the online-manual or at least the online-faq. There you can learn that BS disables itself by some softresets and other methods.. this will prevent hardresets ;)

Also it seems that some of the enhanced elfins are different, but i'm a student and i can't afford such a device for development. Moreover i guess my provider o2 will refuse to donate me such a device for development :rolleyes:

so if overclocking doesn't work -> i can recommend omapclock.exe by intruders, which is really a great tool ;)

particularly in combination with the tool omapclockplus of meshle

google for it or search this forum...

btw. don't use taskbar-related functions like taskmanager in combination with taskbar-applications like wktask, quickmenu or so.. it can definately lead to an unstable system.

so far, some information for those don't read the prophet-forums...

ikarus
[Touch GSM General] tr41t0r:
Just to let you all know, Using HTC Touch Spring version, this program does freeze your phone when selecting "Show CPU Speed". Soft-resets do not help either, the only option for me was to hard reset my phone. I also tried every version of Battery Status with the same results. Also note that there is no option to click OMAP, so the moral of my post is - If your using the Sprint Touch, this program is not for you

Too bad though, looks like a great program for everyone else !
[Touch GSM General] Jamolah:
booterr, thanks a lot man this solved my problem. I played around the CPU scaler tried different values for the min and anything below 149 causes the phone to flicker in phone mode or on the today screen.

Thanks again man.

Just a question, is the flicker a sign of something bad?
[Touch GSM General] nmesisca:
No the flicker means that the video output gets generated on the same clock as the normal setting u give your touch. video refresh gets slowed down hence the flicker.

incidentally, the flicker also disappears whenever the touch goes from low freq. to high freq.

Im running on 87/201/247 MHz at the moment.
[Touch GSM General] jensen78:
im running on 100/201/247 at the moment.....so far no prob
[Touch GSM General] Jamolah:
nmesisca did you notice any flicker with a setting as low as 87Mhz?

Maybe I'll go back to 100 mhz for my min CPU setting. As long as I'm assured it's not damaging anything.

thanks.
[Touch GSM General] nmesisca:
Yes, of course it does flicker at 87MHz, but wont damage anything (and offers a decent advantage battery-wise).

However, underclocking and overclocking have similar risks involved, as reliability of the system could get impaired.

As usual, try the setting that works best for your device. If the setting is too low, or too high, you may experience system lockups; underclocking tho, does not involve the risk of burning your cpu contrarily to overclocking..

Hope this clarifies.

[Touch GSM General] trenwei:
okay so people with the 128/64 rogers version, can you tell me your settings? I have it set overclock to 221, min143 org201 max 247, are these okay?
[Touch GSM General] hachisix:
^^^ if your system is stable then its fine.

I have a question: Do I have to wait till my CPU throttles down to my "min" before I turn it off? I'm curious that if I don't it will run at the higher CPU speed when I turn it off.

But is this true, when you power off it puts the CPU to sleep so my concern is actually a non-issue?
[Touch GSM General] nmesisca:
The cpu will go in low freq. when the workload allows it.

Processes get executed also when the screen is off, so your cpu can throttle at that stage too.

However it is less likely of that happening because some parts of the device may go in powersaving mode, hence dont need to be managed.

After a while that the device is on sleep, it will go down to the min. setting you've set.
[Touch GSM General] zaplin:
i just installed XCPUScalar on my elfin but the max speed i can set is 195mhz...why is that?
[Touch GSM General] shael:
who cares with blue touch elfin rom im at 299 WOOT, rogers sent me a replacment fone so if i burn ma chip its there problem
[Touch GSM General] sas_sas:
If you look at my post #128 under this Topic I asked the same q. but none had any idea.

As BatStatus does not work w/my elfin, tried solution of overclocking w/ XCPUSCALAR, but it is useless too..
[Touch GSM General] EscaBoi:
Same thing, I set it to 247Mhz, then I just did a soft reset (even after checking off the option that tells it to remember after a reboot). It loads the program after the reset, but when I click okay, the speed doesn't show up anymore and when I try to open the BatteryStatus program it won't work. Any ideas?
[Touch GSM General] Fuckthelocals:
mine is at 234mhz.. and it works like a charm so far d:

HTC Overclocked

Hi everybody,

Im quite a noob in Overclocking and this is my first HTC Touch phone,

anyway, i tried Overclocking my HTC to different setting, but the most I could get is only 247, when i go to 260 it restarts, and I have to soft reset to turn it on again, Anyway, This might help in choosing the rate, Ive tried VSBenchmark 2007 to benchmark the different OC speed.

201Mhz 247 Mhz CPU Scaler(Min142max247boost 260

Graphics 1,015 1,294 1,015

Others 1,432 1,860 1,507

JPEG 0993 1,344 1,342

Games 1,001 1,409 1,409

Sound 1,004 684 684

Overall 1,089 1,325 1,256

Im quite confused though with the result in sound, cause 201 yields higher compared to 247 and CPU Scaled
[Touch GSM General] speakerphone:
There are stories going around that

1) XCPUSCALAR sometimes just says it's o/c but the real mhz isn't changed

2) PHM or XCPUSCALAR uses more battery monitoring vs just running at max CPU all the time
[Touch GSM General] Himself™:
There is no 128/64mb Rogers version. They are all the 128ram/256rom versions.

Anyway, I was running at 273 stable, then due to battery drainage, decided to keep it at 247, but now have it at 260MHz, all stable.
[Touch GSM General] daem.monium:
are you guys using the booster without problems?

I've set my phone at 95/201/247/260 (boost) and seems fine... Let's see how it goes in a couple of hours!
[Touch GSM General] b8zs:
i am an idiot.

I installed the stable release of Battery Status, and it worked fine. Then all i did was enabled the cpu MHZ display on the home screen. It made my phone freeze, when i do a soft reset it boots up and is frozen right away. This is my fault for not reading, because i have a sprint touch (Qualcomm MSM 7500 400 MHZ proc), and battery status is for omap processors.

How can I fix my phone without a hard reset? (i don't want to loose my contacts)

after 8 soft resets it somehow unchecked battery status and didn't load it, which allowed me to uninstall it :P
[Touch GSM General] ikarus:
It's strange, but BS should see that there's no omap-cpu and uses compatible methods to retrieve the cpu-speed. (btw. such methods don't need to provide the correct cpu-speed.)

If anyone with that problem wants to help, then pm me and we try looking for the cause.
[Touch GSM General] cirian75:
been running at

Hello everyone....

i work my touch on: 130MHz minimum, 299 stable use, 312 boost and works fine!!
[Touch GSM General] mach2005:
149mhz rest / 201 std / 247 fast / 286 boost works super.
[Touch GSM General] zohrann:
Hi there,

on my Touch i use BatteryStatus (www.chi-tai.info) ver. 1.04.203 Build 0266 and it works like a charm for me. My batterylife went from just 1 day to 3 days with the Cpuscaler. Cpuscaler settings:

min 112 Mhz

org 201 Mhz

max 247 Mhz

and i have some progs Aplication Based Overclock;

Pocketmusic 156 Mhz (if i use the phone as a walkman)

Bubblebreaker 175 Mhz (my son's favorite)

One thing i noticed that my ProgramMemory is a bit low since i installed BatteryStatus, it's a 12/15 MB at startup, but after a few hours it is around 6/7 Mb. Used the older batterystatus before (without the nice extras it now has) and it used far less memory....

But no problems using my phone (calling, Opera, TomTom) and the batterylife profit makes it good for me (now i can take my phone with me for the weekend without charging).

Nice work on the batterystatus program Ikarus!!!!:D
