you can easily track your battery discharge with little but awesome app BattLog 0.2.3.130 (search forum to find instalation cab)... u can save and compare logs taken with or without data connection, result which i would be interested to look at myself.

i'm also using data connection24/7 and if i do not use phone at all battery would last 1.5 to 2 days, but as soon as i start using web battery hardly can last a day.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I wrote an overclocking app today that will become opensource as soon as I put the source online(lol). This is confirmed to work on at least Haykuro's 5.0.1G ROM. Allows setting custom min and max cpu frequency. Enjoy :). (Thanks buttkicker for this idea)

And the source code is now live on googlecode.

site is: http://code.google.com/p/openoverclocker/

UPDATE: New version up. Everything is now working and tested on both JF and Haykuro. Will continue to set clock even after reboot, so enjoy!
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
Nice Marcus! Just downloaded it from the marketplace, and it works! I don't mind the reset after restart because honestly, how often do we restart our phones? Confirmed working on 5.0G (apps to sd) as well. go poly! =]

Question: would it harm the phone to set min and max to 528?
[G1 Apps and Games] pkmoazzam:
wow, it works fine. thank you. its pretty fast
[G1 Apps and Games] Perrosky:
it doesn't seem to work in the H version :(
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm darn no go on H eh? Lol I'll have to wait till someone figures out how to overclock that one and then incorperate it.
[G1 Apps and Games] buttkicker:
I am running 5.0.2H, and it should work.

MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com, are you doing anything different in the app?
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm no, not really. Except that I'm saving the values in files and then cat-ing them out to the frequency files. Perrosky, did you set a different minimum? It will scale between them so it might not run at max when you look at /proc/cpuinfo
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
seems to work fine with my G1. is this actually overclocking or just clocking the processor to its max.
[G1 Apps and Games] testing567:
As I understand it, the G1 has a scalable 512 MHz processor, so this is clocking it to it's max specs.
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
Thats what I thought, was reading it somewhere but couldnt remember so I just asked..

well some programs seem to run faster, but that could just be me.. i ran cat /proc/cpuinfo and got a speed of 383.38...i have it set to min 384 max 524 even tried 512 as max..when i run some programs it seems faster than before..but when i run term. emu to get speed it resets the app to 384 max. 248 min.
[G1 Apps and Games] victortung:
I got the 5.0.1H...

and I don't think it works for me too...

how to check ? If I set Max to 528 MIN 248 and click "apply" nothing happen

if I set MAX/MIN both 528.. phone hang/crash
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm interesting on the phone hanging. For the 528 max and 248 min the phone will run faster when taxed but will run the same at low points. Maybe try 528 max and 400 min and then see what "cat /proc/cpuinfo" says? If it says anything over 348 then you're already over what the normal maximum is
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
App always resets to 384 max and 248 min, I hardcoded those in. Next revision should support loading the actual speed and remembering what you put last.
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
After reboot, sometimes it hangs while requesting superuser access, then crashes.
[G1 Apps and Games] Binary100100:
Doesn't seem very different thus far. Any way to benchmark it?

I guess we'll find out if our battery life shortens. :p

Edit: Nevermind... I found my answer in this thread.
[G1 Apps and Games] KPeriod:
Saw this last night during my nightly before-I-sleep market app search.

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] Perrosky:
sorry for my late post, I set the min at 328 and max at 500 I hit apply and the overclock apk just stay still, then when I use the Terminal to see the speed I show 258
[G1 Apps and Games] buttkicker:
Do you have the superuser whitelist app installed.

You will need that.
[G1 Apps and Games] clspdhax1:
Not sure, but since the cpu is scaling, the terminal or other program would show the current cpu usage when it reads and display it.

So, if you're not doing anything in the OS, the readout would be near the low-end, when you check the freq.

I tried the software, but I wish it had a button to monitor or show the cpu mhz somewhere.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
That will be in the next version. That's why it says MHz at the top, planning on putting the number there but gonna have to do some parsing of /proc/cpuinfo... somehow...
[G1 Apps and Games] buttkicker:
You can just check "scaling_cur_freq".
[G1 Apps and Games] joeydsmith:
change the ugly icon!
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
haha, I'm not an artist and don't want to steal anyone's ip. If someone on here makes a better one though I'd be more than willing to throw it on.

or... you know... you could always check out the code and do it yourself :)
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Good point, the bigger issue though is trying to get the output.. I'm probably gonna have to cat it out to a file in my app's cache and get it from there...
[G1 Apps and Games] Aqrab:
does this work on diamond ?

it has the same cpu
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
?!?!?!?!?!??!! It's an android app.... diamond is WM... unless you did something funky to flash an android ROM in which case I have no clue. Try it out, if it works then yes, if not then no.
[G1 Apps and Games] JaboJG:
Works on Haykuro 5.0.2H, thanks man!
[G1 Apps and Games] JaboJG:
26Fps in Neocore with no audio whereas I was getting something like 13!
[G1 Apps and Games] victortung:
I tried 528 / 400 and I can see the different, so looks it works with my 5.0.1H

One more question, do I need to re-run it after a reboot?
[G1 Apps and Games] buttkicker:
Yes. These setting are reset after reboot.
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
ive tried running apps like weatherbug and imeem while having the it set to min 524 max 524...and 400min 524 max....i check to see what the speed is and it always says the same 383.86mhz...running jf1.42 rc33
[G1 Apps and Games] gunigugu:
HAHA!! Lol... I do the same thing! Thought I was the only one :p
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Yep, known problem. JF's ROMs have things laid out a little different. Will try to get this fixed soon but first need to get the damn overclock on reboot working... I'm having the hardest time making a service run on bootup.
[G1 Apps and Games] Joushou:
You should consider changing the governor to "performance", that should change it's scaling algorith significantly (well, should just put it to max speed... :) Just remember to reset to msm7k (default), or ondemand).

Anyways, nice, it's good for people too lazy to cat them in ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] xxvtcxx:
Does this mean that the phone is correctly overclocking but it is not being reported correctly? Or does it mean that the phone is not being overclocked?
[G1 Apps and Games] buttkicker:
The phone with JF roms will not get overclocked by this...(yet).
[G1 Apps and Games] crackmunky:
I downloaded it last nite. Really apprecate that it is free and i noticed a significant speed increase, hopefully not just a placebo effect hehe.

Would love to see some kinda of visuals in the app showing the increased speed.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Coming soon... I spent like all last night trying to get the damn thing into a service that runs when the phone boots up but having a hard time. Once I get that done, I'll throw in all the other stuff(make it work on JF, show the current clock speed, automatically load your previously set values)
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
New version is up. Now shows clock speed, sets clock speed at boot time and should work on JF
[G1 Apps and Games] dixxa:
It doesn't work on JF build

maybe you uploaded a wrong version.

no option to set it at boot time ...
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
hey can you send me the apk please? my market isnt letting me download =[
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
It's attached to the first post....
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm odd... it should work. Can anyone else with JF verify. Also, there's no option for boot time, it just does it.
[G1 Apps and Games] veda_sticks:
running 5.0.2 H bulkld, doesnt work,
[G1 Apps and Games] benmyers2941:
It works for me, also on 5.0.2 Hr2. Now my phone is running like it's been snorting meth all day :D
[G1 Apps and Games] blackgin:
For me (JF version) it doesn't work..
[G1 Apps and Games] CSalvatore10:
This application has completely changed my life. It has revolutionized the way that I play pacman on my phone. Whenever I previously played the game it took 1.2 seconds to start but with Overclock this has been cut in half to .6 seconds! Yes you heard right people, .6 seconds babay! Boo yah!
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
not working still..on my JF build
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
hmm alright, I'm taking the crazy route and flashing back to a JF build myself to get it to work.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
alright, I solved it. It now works for JF(I'm running JF and it works for me). I'm gonna really quickly flash back to Haykuro to make sure it still works on that side. Hold on to your butts.

EDIT: still works on Haykuro so it's all set! First post has newest version as does marketplace.
[G1 Apps and Games] ultra spikey:
I tried it and set the max to 528 and my phone froze. Pulled the battery, started the phone up again it as soon as the home screen came up it froze again. I'm kind of scared to try this out again.
[G1 Apps and Games] gimiento:
Works

But when first changed max speed, phone froze up. Had to pull battery but then after restarting overclock was there... And now I can change speeds without any issues.

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm ya, any time you overclock something there's always a risk. In this case overclocking seems much less stable on JF ROMs than on Haykuro's, so user beware! My next version I'll make a checkbox for overclocking on boot.
[G1 Apps and Games] clspdhax1:
just an suggestion, maybe you can make 2 versions, the most stable for both haykuro and jf. or.. maybe you should enjoy your weekend instead. anyway, thanks for all your work and time. peace -
[G1 Apps and Games] BSDADON:
does this start running on boot? because the last version i tried froze my phone at 528 and i don't want to try this out if it starts automatically for fear of getting stuck with my phone freezing over and over again trying to run 528:confused:
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Yes it does. In my next version, I'll make a checkbox where you can disable that. So for right now, if you're on JF I'd avoid 528.
[G1 Apps and Games] BSDADON:
glad i checked. thanks for the info
[G1 Apps and Games] jonnybueno:
Hey Marcus,

I really appreciate this application, and your apps to sd application as well. I know this seems trivial, but could you change the icons for both?

I did purchase your app on the market.... and I would purchase open overclock as well....
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Heh, ya I've noted before I'm not really an artist and don't want to steal anyone's ip. But if someone is an artist and sends me a better one, I'll definitely put it in.
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
Im on jf tried 528 froze my phone...pulled battery. Restarted. Runs fine at 528. Only been running it for about 20 minutes now. No problem
[G1 Apps and Games] jonnybueno:
There are some really nice icons in the theme section, I'm sure theme creators wouldn't mind.

I have a bunch of 48x48 .pngs I could gmail you when I get home later tonight (live in hawaii, still at work).

But seriously, I love donating to nice developers, I would pay for a version.
[G1 Apps and Games] Richard.UK:
Well I rooted my phone and installed everything apps and all after receiving my brand new unlocked G1 (already anticipating I wouldn't be let down by this purchase) and I have to say I am having alot of joy so far, and it is all thanks to the active DEVS in XDA.

A big thank you there from me,

Onto this particular application,

I am running Jesus Frekes RC9 for the UK and I realised that if you set a "minimum" equency below 100 say 99, or 91 (in my case) it hangs up with force end. Now, if you make it a 3 digit number such as 099 or 091 (in my case), this doesnt hang.

Maybe its just a little reference or pointers in the coding or something nothing too problematic.

another thing is that my "active frequency" the "reader" is always stating 384.xx MHz regardless if I set the maximum to say 528, or 521 (in my case). Is this a bug?

It would be also nice to develope something that can monitor the low frequencies too as well as the highs possibly, or at least something that actually lets me know if the phone is registering that the clock speeds have changed.

All in all I support XDA Devs where seen fit :)

Hope someone can shine some light on my gibberish :) lol
[G1 Apps and Games] ultra spikey:
That's what mine does too(on JF). But I've noticed that it will randomly reset itself back to 348(or whatever is default).
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
it does reset the 384 max values but only the numbers it doesnt actually slow the processor back down, it still shows im running at 528. so im happy. i havent had any problems running it since my phone froze the first time i ran the program.
[G1 Apps and Games] ultra spikey:
I checked in terminal, it actually resets back to 384. On mine it did at least.

Another thing, when it did work, why does it stay at 528 ALL the time? Shouldnt it be at the min value while the processor is not being used?
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
mine doesnt reset the actual speed it just resets to the original values it will keep running at 528 ...and yea it seems to run at 528 the whole time when the max value is set to it. i kept the same min. set and it just runs at max speed the whole time...i dont have a problem with it but would be nice if it was variable.
[G1 Apps and Games] Richard.UK:
I'm not seeing any change to the "running at speed" even with the clock Max set to 521, still shows 384 (or whatever the default is hehe)

Running in the UK (UK Language, not US or any other - with firmware JF RC9 UK)

Any idea?
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm maybe the RC's do something different? If so I'm not sure that's something I can take care of. Also, this is probably fairly new info for most but the JF builds don't seem to have a way to set minimum clock speed. So, on the JF builds only the max clock speed actually does anything. Sorry for all the confusion, I'll probably try to have it not show the min clock speed box if you're on JF.
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
thats what i was thinking, that you could only set the max speed in jf roms, atleast you came out and said it to reassure me. it still works though set at 528 for max....why is everyone else trying different numbers like 600, 524, if the max speed is stated as 528
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
did you notice you battery running down superfast when using overclocking? i mean i wasnt using it much so it should have been on lower value and using battery same as usual?
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
i havent seen a major decrease in battery life. i usually charge overnight and run wifi all day long. My average battery life is 10-12 hours with wifi/weatherbug/gps almost always running....with overclocking app i average 8-10 hours...so nothing major....a loss of maybe an hour or two...im sure if your running alot of apps it will probably decrease faster...
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Agreed, I don't really see a battery life decrease. Maybe they set it to 384 because of the stability problems on earlier builds(freezing problem on id. ROMs for example) rather than battery life?
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
i think the battery life was due to something else anyway- i uninstalled overclocking and my battery still ran down- wonder if its the new battery status app i got.... or maybe its that i switched to 5.02Hr3 instead of 5.0G?

either way am going to reinstall overclocking.
[G1 Apps and Games] jaboswell:
today its been resetting iteself after about 20-30 minutes back to original speed....
[G1 Apps and Games] grenness:
I have to confirm that the speed rating is now 383.38MHz, even though I set it to 528/528 10-15 minutes ago.

JF [something, see below...]

OT: what is the best way for me to find out exactly which JF build I'm running?

Device info, Linux kernel version says:

2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0

Sat Jan 24 21:06:15 CST 2009
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
The operating system seems to automatically readjust the clock speed occasionally. Not much I can do about this except have a service constantly running in the background checking up one it... which would probably render the whole overclocking thing pointless.
[G1 Apps and Games] mrmikemcguire:
I'm running JF rc33 build and when I set to 528, it will freeze and hang. When this happens, i have to removet he battery of course. Usually if the phone doesnt come back up after one reboot, the 2nd one will do it. I have successfully clocked to 528 2 times, but eventually freezes. I see that it says that its now stable on JF's builds, but im not getting any luck.

I installed it about a week ago, then reinstalled it just within the day. But No go, keeps on freezing. Am I missing something?
[G1 Apps and Games] prash:
Hey, I got bored at work and made this 48x48 Icon if you want to use it for the free app you're more than welcome to:

(found at http://injun.org/images/ooc48.png)

If you want the original (which is like 2000x2000 png) let me know.

Figured I'd donate some free artwork in return for the great free apps.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Looks great! I have been working on one but it's nowhere near that good. Will incorporate this in my next release.
[G1 Apps and Games] misfitofmagic:
awesome! just dowloaded cant wait to get it installed and mess around! keep up the awesome work.
[G1 Apps and Games] der_juden:
So since people with the JF 1.42 ROM keep reporting problems I thought i would do some testing. First neocore is not a good way to benchmark this app, it makes no difference when open overclocker is running or not in the speed. While testing i got the best speed out of neocore when i wasn't running openoverclocker 25 fps, with it running and confirmed it was running at 528mhz i got 22.3fps. So it really doesnt make a difference with the openGL test neocore runs. Second with JF rom the only speeds that seem to work are 528mhz and 384mhz nothing else. setting 528 max and 528 min will lock your phone up. But once you pull the battery and boot it back up it'll work fine. Marcusmaximus I would edit your description on the market place to let people know what speeds work or change the problem to just set it to 528 max min 384 or find which values run stably. I'm not a developer so i don't know what the values are, but if someone can give me the commands to check i can run tests on it from a JF 1.42 rooted phone to find out.

Also Thank you thank you marcusmaximus for making this phone run properly. I have been so pissed at my damn phone because its so ****ing slow. this fixes all the speed problems the phone has. I dont understand why HTC or google dont run the processor at 528. If anyone has the commands to test the minimum speed email me at derjuden@gmail.com
[G1 Apps and Games] jsapp:
I like it, but when set to 528, I can hear my phone making a "whirring" noise so I put it back down, but if I set the max speed to anything other that 528, it doesn't seem to work??? Running the Dude's build.
[G1 Apps and Games] BlueBoar:
Holy crap, it's going to BLOW!!!:D
[G1 Apps and Games] jsapp:
In that case I will put it under the wife's pillow.
[G1 Apps and Games] kevev:
is this working on jf1.5?

I am not seeing the large font speed @ top change to the minimum. I did on older builds of cupcake.

Whatever I set the max speed to will change the speed displayed.
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm I've seen it display the lower clockspeed before but it is admittedly rare. Kinda hard to make it happen when the phone isn't sleeping.

EDIT: Also, the older versions of JF don't allow for scaling and only have one clock speed, I have no idea about the differences in 1.5 regarding this.
[G1 Apps and Games] RaiderX303:
what is the terminal command to view current speed?

also doesnt seem to be storing the speed i set it to, keeps going back to 384/248
[G1 Apps and Games] felixre7:
Running JF ADP 1.5 and the frequency change makes a huge difference.

The phone is constantly setting itself back to the default specs though at some random interval it seems. Is there some file i can edit manually in order to make this change permanent? its gota be storing the 384 max number some where...
[G1 Apps and Games] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
No, the operating system seems to automatically set it to that, so there's not much I can do about it(except have something in the background checking for the change and then setting it back but that would probably make it even slower.
[G1 Apps and Games] eagle001:
Seems to be working great (for the three minutes it is installed) :rolleyes:. /proc/cpuinfo gives 527.15.

Thanks for the great work
[XPERIA X1 General] completelyhis:
I'm sorry for posting this here, but I can't think of where else to post it - this is my one stop shop for everything x1!

I have tons of stuff in my phone's task list. they are all equally important and quite diverse. I'd love to have my phone randomly pick one of them and that would be the one i do. This would help my lack of motivation. As it is now, i look at the list of 20 or 30 things, and I think, "yeah, I'm just going to watch TV." because I don't know where to begin.

does such a thing exist? if not, how hard would it be to make it a panel or a plugin or something?

thanks,

Ian
[XPERIA X1 General] ronniecross:
we have a TV show in the UK called Genius. Its basically where people stand on a stage and propose their completely and utterly stupidly useless ideas, yet somehow, these ideas are genius. a panel decides whether or not it is genius.

I say Genius. lol

i bought some usb to 3,5mm adapter for my htc kaiser, that worked very well on it, but today i tried to plug one on the Touch, and it didnt fit. does the touch use a diferent usb port than the kaiser?

do i have to buy some special adapter, only for the touch?

In settings->button, there is setting for button '6'. Which is this button ?

(1 is IE)

(2 is messaging)

(3 start menu)

(4 ok/close)

(5 camera)

(6 commManager) Now which is this button. I see only 4 button and camera button in side ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
The PTT Button it has a short & long setting :)
