ATTENTION: This post could be incredibly stupid, you are warned :P

I just have a question, its the coprocessor at the same clock of the main processor? Because, if thats no the case, and the main processor is set to 528 and the secondary one set to 384 or 256, we can overclock the second one to 528 and we should have a great and nice power up on our devices, allowing Hero Roms to run alot faster...

Now, this lead to a couple question, its is possible to overclock this coprocessor? if its possible, how difficult can it be? Could this fry the processor due to both processors generating the same amount of heat?

Im not a dev or something, but i believe that this is the course that this project have to get in to success...

Good Luck to the devs that are actually testing this :D
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
Correct, but that's in Windows Mobile. That's where we got the idea from in the first place. ;)

But SOME CPU's will do it fine, some only when on AC power and some can't handle it at all.
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
well.. lets find out exactly how many mHz we can push this

Even if its 30mHz that would be better than nothing
[G1 Android Development] Geniusdog254:
We can't just to that. The problem lies in how the PLLs are set up. You have to use divisors, so things like 352 (1056/3) work. Like I said the divisors have to be of the PLL clock speeds (1056/1=1Ghz roughly, no chance lol, 768 works but obviously crashes).

How did people test this on their phones already?

I would like to poke a little around and see if there is anything I could help with.

Is there a compiled kernal anywhere rofl
[G1 Android Development] Cadbury:
It looks like 658MHz should also be possible. A mistake was made when a Sapphire ROM was made. Here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5238039&postcount=488

I had that ROM installed for a few hours and it was significantly faster than the current Cyanogen ROM. I'm not sure if it was due to the clock speed or other factors.

[G1 Android Development] coolbho3000:
Ask the developer for kernel source and how they did that. :confused:

I PM'd cursordroid about this thread. Hopefully he can provide some insight.

[G1 Android Development] erlern:
This means that others might be able to help identify what happened right? So, it is possible to overclock. That's something good to hear. :)
[G1 Android Development] coolbho3000:
Well, the Dream's MSM7201a doesn't have the Turbo mode chip. Only I think the 32A, the Hero, and the Tattoo have it.
[G1 Android Development] Geniusdog254:
32A & Hero both have the MSM7201a processor chip, just a different RAM chip, so they get the RAM boost. Not sure about the Tattoo, I know it has more RAM but not sure about chipset.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
The Hero has the Qualcomm MSM7200A not the 7201A. The 7201A lacks something (I forget what) due to a copyright issue or something.
[G1 Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Whoops sorry, my bad. I stand corrected lol, but 32A Magic does still have MSM7201a, I'm (almost) sure of it lol.

EDIT: OK I did a little research, MSM7200a is the older chip, it uses 90nm machining instead of the 65nm in the 7201a. It has the same clock speed still though.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
It's older but the newer one also lacks something, I just can't remember what....

PVT32A handsets have 288MB total RAM (192MB usable by OS - same as Hero handsets) and use the Qualcomm MSM7200A CPU.

PVT32B handsets have 192MB total RAM (96MB usable by OS) and use the Qualcomm MSM7201A CPU.

EDIT: His hack was on a 32A, unfortunately, but I still want to see it.
[G1 Android Development] eyegor:
My phone used to run at 660MHz for a day or so... I wasnt really impressed, just thought that overclock widged was ****ting me but it wasnt...didnt rly notice a speed increase. (maybe i did i just cant remember now:P )

I had no problems with it although a LOT of other users reported SEVERE stability issues.
[G1 Android Development] coolbho3000:
There's an interesting thing about that. Every HTC device from the Hero, and I think the Magic 32A seems to have a "turbo" version of the MSM72xx (model numbers will be the same). They have slightly different PLLs (eg. 480MHz replaces 384MHz). This is confirmed by acpuclock.c in many branches at codeaurora.
[G1 Android Development] charnsingh_online:
now thats called progress, i just downloaded the 0.9 rom and flashed the it, real speed faster than a hero
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
So any luck with this 4 months later? Are we going to over clock the CPU to 700+?

(Not in a bad tone) :D
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
well shatterd...how can i say this except the phone needs alot more elec to power the juice req for 768
[G1 Android Development] daproy:
Looking at the kernel source for hero the key is that for the 7200a chip (on Hero) the PLLs are set to:

PLL0(mpll):245.76, PLL1(gpll):960, PLL2(bpll0):1056

While for the 7201a chip (on Dream) the PLLs are set to:

PLL0(mpll):245.76, PLL1(gpll):768, PLL2(bpll0):1056

The result is that 7201a (Dream) gets frequency values (128000, 245760, 384000, 528000) while 7200a (Hero) gets frequency values (160000, 245760, 480000, 528000). Where those values equal (PLL1/6, PLL0/1, PLL1/2, PLL2/2).

The way we tried to get 768000 was with (PLL1/1).

This doesn't explain how someone could get a clock of 658000 (with integer divisors)
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
Extended battery users? Maybe not all the way to 768 but we could use say 600ish.:)

Really glad someone thought about this though.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
One your MyTouch3G? (which is a 32B, right?)
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Nope not on a dream my friend..

600 isnt a possible freq for the cpu.I didnt mean the batt i meant the phone's chipset cant handle that much power being withdrawn. On my Pc i cant use any OC freq for my Cpu b/c the motherboard cant stand the power needed for the CPU's OC freq.
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
Thanks for clarifying, ill be replacing my g1 soon ;)
[G1 Android Development] coolbho3000:
Yeah, I'm really interested in how they did that as well. :eek:
[G1 Android Development] CrazyEye:
So there is no possible way for the phone to physically handle that high of a frequency. Dang boner killer.

Well maybe we could re config the Kernel to have a different set multiplier and maybe get a higher 500 frequency.

I'm not to sure how this could be done since I have no knowledge in programing but on PC when I over clock and I change the multiplier it could mean a big difference in performance.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
I only know about OC with windows not about linux/ubuntu/etc.

Theres a limit to how high you can OC before the sys crashes or the atmosphere flames from underlying heat.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
The Multipliers are hardware based. No amount of tweaking with fix that. But maybe there are other PLL/multiplier combinations that we haven't seen, yet.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Can we atleast OC the gpu or can we update something?

Audio drivers but can the same go for other parts?
[G1 Android Development] erlern:
Hi guys,

It's great that the other devices can be overclocked because of the turbo function (from post #65 onwards), but what about the MSM7201a processor for G1? Is that impossible? What is needed (idealistically speaking)? Is it a particular document (to identify the PLLs, are they different from the 7200)? No2chem tested the overclocking on the same processor (MSM7201a) in Windows Mobile and it worked http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/post/2009/09/07/More-notes-on-overclocking.aspx. Tells us it's possible.

Looking through the posts in this thread (based on TylTru's explanation), is it right to conclude that only the 528Mhz ARM11 application processor can be overclocked and not the 256Mhz ARM9 microprocessor?

Sorry, just happy for the non-Dream/G1 sets and sad if people are giving up on the G1. Thanks heaps for the effort and help! I am definitely willing to donate for any overclocking on my Dream/G1.

[G1 Android Development] jmhalder:
Taz, the person who compiled the kernel that runs that fast has had it up to... 1300mhz! obviously its not exactly "stable", but I had my demo-line droid up to 1ghz yesterday! what a beast. :D and i still come home to my tried and true G1 ;)
[G1 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
doubt this idea would work but what about using a 1.5 -2.0 as the pll2 divisor (1056/1.6 gives 660 by my maths, or 768/1.2 gives 640)

Would having the MSM7200A datasheet on Software Interface and Baseband help in anyway since they have some pretty detailed information on the chips (not complete of course)? Just wondering whether anyone has tested overclocking for the 32B devices. Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] saint01:
I have been messing with this now for over a week, and I can't seem to actually get this overclocked to 550 or higher. I've flashed the 780 zip, rebuilt the setcpu text file and all sorts of other stuff, which keeps soft bricking the phone. I just rebuilt again, but if someone can tell me how to get 550 without having to flash a rom, that would be totally awesome!
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
This does not work. It only tricks the phone into thinking it running faster causing the phone to run at 527 all the time.

I'm locking the thread to prevent further confusion.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gt112:
This clock is based on Led Clock by David Horn posted on here some time ago. The principle of the clock is minimalism. The left column represents the hous, the next five columns represent minutes and the final column represents groups of five seconds (if you choose the 'show seconds' option). The hours increment upwards, the minutes increment leftwards then upwards and the seconds increment upwards. I have taken David’s original clock idea and bolted on lots of user options purely as an exercise to get up to speed programming for the compact framework.

Features

=======

Set individual colours for many elements such as hour leds, minute leds, second leds, frame, font and background.

Draw rectangular or round leds

Show / Hide seconds

Show digits on hours, minutes, seconds

Change led size – small, medium, large.

Imaging:

Load image as foreground, the image gets drawn piece by piece like a jigsaw as another led gets added to the clock. Watch your image build up on screen as the hour goes by. Alternatively you can set the image as a background image and the clock gets drawn on top.

Image Folders:

You can also specify a folder of images and set the rotation frequency to minute, hour or day. The current image behaves as above and gets rotated so you can have a new image loaded every day, or hour etc.

I am using GDI to draw the clock but it is heavily optimized. The thread only runs every 5 secs or every 60 secs if you choose not to show seconds. The drawing itself only draws what is absolutely necessary at any time. So if we are not refreshing / painting the form, usually we are only drawing a single led therefore this should be light on resources. As evidence of this, consider the fact that I am not using double buffering anywhere and yet the redrawing is always flicker free and stable.

I wrote this clock as a Touch HD owner but tested it on several of the mobile images. It should run on any Windows Mobile device and on most screen resolutions from version 5 upwards. It currently uses .Net 3.5 but I can port it back to 2.0 if required as all the code is legacy written and I am using no libraries from the newer framework. I’d appreciate any reasonable feedback.

Now add an alpha layer to the texture to be 0 at the white corners and 1 everywhere else and enable alpha blending to get rid of the white corners to have 'round' icons.

I have a ext 2 and fat32 formatted card and I want to do linux-swap and I'm wondering if I can take my fat32 thats free and partition that as a linux-swap without formatting the fat32.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamPI:
?

Most of the ROMs expect the partitions to be in the correct order so you would have to respect that anyway.

I'm guessing you want to reduce the size of the FAT partition without losing data to gain space to make a linux swap. In which case you can *in theory* do this in Ubuntu (from live CD). You would need to resize the FAT32 parition, move the ext2 partition to the left so the free space is at the end and create your swap partition there. I haven't tried it though and would want to backup anyway.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcarey66:
In my opinion you would get best results by start fresh on all the partitions. I would backup whats on your fat32 partition onto your computer and then use the directions for in this thread to create all three partitions.

Creating 3 fresh partitions with the directions in that threat eliminate and issues you may have with ROM's that might be cause from the partitions not being done right.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
if you really want to do and do not care for your ext3 data (or just search how to back it up) you can go into recovery console for cm recovery image 1.3.1 or later do this

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
rm 2
print

now take the space that is left say x amount of space

subtract y amount of space for linux-swap

then z will be amount of space left for ext2

x-y=z

now in parted type

mkpartfs primary ext2 [end of fat32 partition from print command above] [number of z from equation above]

then (so not to be too confusing)

mkpartfs primary linux-swap [z from above] [end of sdcard from print command by disk size dev/block/mmcblk0]
print (to verify it worked)
quit (ignore etc/fstab update)
upgrade_fs
reboot

or since this requires a fair amount of understanding of the process of using parted from the recovery image you may want to start from scratch

Hello,

i am currently running CyanogenMod v4.0.4 and want to use a hero rom but dont really understand how im suposed to get that done can someone help plz???
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pack:
I have to admit you confused me... cyanogenmod v4.0.4 is a "rom" it is the same process you did to get that on there...

i take it your using a recovery img

for a hero rom the most important part is partitioning your sd card or it will run SLOW AS HELL

so...

[1] shut down your phone

[2] hold home+power to boot into recovery

[3] choose format sd card to fat32+ext2+swap [this will wipe your sd card in the process so if you want to keep anything back it up]

[4] choose nandriod back up so you can restore back to your current if you mess up

[5] reboot your phone

[6] download the hero rom you want and rename it to: update.zip

[7] plug in your usb to your phone and put the update.zip on the sd card

[8] shut down your phone

[9] hold home+power to boot back to recovery

[10] choose apply update.zip

reboot and your good to go

(thats how to do it if you dont have a partitioned sd card if it already is partitioned skip steps 1-3 if your unsure if it is just do all the steps)

hope that helps
