Hey thanks for the guide it worked on my hero!

The only problem I saw with it was that spare parts doesnt allow you to change the end button behavior on a non 1.5 rom.

Im running villian2.1 and i noticed a huge difference.

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] piotrreq:
What is your cpu score? I also have villian2.1 and before any hanges I had about 162 and after hanges it remaind the same
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] oldskool73:
Does anyone actually know how the overclocking works, what it's modifying or doing to overclock the device?

It's just that even though I'm all rooted up neither of the overclocking apps I've tried work for me (oveclock widget & setcpu), the settings never get applied and I'd like to figure out why :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] anarchyuk:
are you sure? im on 2.1 ckdroid and spare parts works fine for me m8
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] anarchyuk:
am I right in saying the actual set cpu program is called setcpu for android 1.5? this comes as standard on ckdroid, I set the cpu to max and the both jump to 528mhz so i press set, but when i press refresh the min drops to 480mhz!

what benchmarking tool are you chaps using?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xorxelmen:
Hi, I make the same of the tutorial, but only change the "screen on frequencies":

Screen On:

Max: 528000

Min: 384000

this frequencies are the original of HTC?

I only use this widget to preserve the battery, but i have one problem, the icon of the homescreen show me 528 all time, is it normally??

If i push the widget appear the overclock configuration, all slidebars at maximun, but if I go to advanced setting appears the correct configurations

...

Please help me.

(Sorry for my english)

hero with Modaco 3.2 beta 5

Minfreemanager (configuration aggressive)

Last radio.

CPU benchmark: 163
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
always use "Advanced settings" in the overclock widget.

I testes (Max:528000, Min:384000) for two days last week. faster than HTC's settings. but cause a few little laggs sometimes :( but less than HTC's settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pananza:
Running MCR 3.1 and I cannot get this widget to change frequency. No matter what I set it to it says "Set new clock successful", but it's always showing 527 MHz. Why would this not work for me?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Repp:
If you have set the upper limit to 527, it will use 527 whenever it feels like doing so :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arenaling:
wait..i use villian 2.1..but i didn't find any cpu overclock in the market...i try to download from somewhere else but it hang everytime it ask for Su permision

If I set something in the advanced settings for CPU Clock Screen on / off, the settings in the "homescreen" of the app will not be used?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xorxelmen:
ok!! only one question. what is the number that appear in the icon of the widget?, in my Hero appear 528 (but i use the advanced settings to configure the CPU and select the same parameters than you)

When working at minimum cpu in "screen on" mode? isn't appear in the widget icon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Hi, I tried the widget as well. My phone feels a LOT faster (rooted stock OS), but strangely the widget says 527 instead of 528. And if I leave my phone attended for about 30 seconds, the number declines to 479.

Does this mean it's not maxing out the frequencies? Or is there something wrong with the widget number?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tony28:
Hi i don't find CPUOverclock widget on the market ...

The same here with a 2.1 rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dudeldei:
Thanks!

This was a nice guide!

I'm running the latest KaguDroid and get a Total CPU score: 282

Two colleagues of mine are getting results around 140-150 and they run 'Standard HTC ROM'
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Yeah, me too (nowhere near the 170-180 in the first post). It feels faster though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Simc13:
which 2.1 rom is this? koz on kagudroid working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
@nysos, @xorxelmen guys don't worry about the widget number.. 527 is normal.

and @nysos are you sure the Min value are 528000 too ??

BTW, the widget update the frequency number every 60 seconds !!

so, don't worry..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Yes, under advanced settings, both Min and Max are set to 528000.

If I set the update frequency of the widget number to 5 seconds, it shows 479 after 5 seconds, so I'm not sure what's going on.

If I use the general settings (not under advanced) it does not remember that I entered 528000 for min and max. If I reopen the widget, Min is always set back to 480000.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Are you remembering to select "save" in the advanced menu?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Yep. If I reboot the phone, the widget shows 528000 under min and max in advanced settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] josser:
Same here, doesn't matter wich frequency I use, the benchmark app always shows the same score....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Samek:
Hello!

Where can I see current CPU freq from "adb shell"? I've been looking in various files in /proc but I can't seem to find it..

Hm, I'm checking /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq and /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq files and the value doesn't change when my screen is off. It is always set @528000.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:
Hi

I have HTC G2 Touch (T-Mobile version of the Hero) with Modaco 3.1 running. Tried the Overclock Widget but it does not run on my Hero. It shows 000 CPU frequency and the app crashes continously ..

As I know my Hero is rooted - don't know what to do.

Anybody help?

thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nemo0815:
The tool has no effect on my hero, benchmarks always the same regardless how low i set the frequency using Modaco 3.1.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
Works great for me, have MoDaco 3.1 and the phone instantly became faster (though I had to use SetCPU as the cpuoverclock widget was not in the Market, maybe that's the same?).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bram77:
Great suggestion, my phone does seem to be faster. Setting the animation speed to "Fast" in Spare Parts makes it even feel faster. I'm using Modaco 3.1.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:

I'll update the first post ASAP ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aShtk:
Hi everyone,

I have some questions. I couldn't find CPUoverclock widget so I used Overclock Widget, which seems to be the same (exactly the same parameters).

1 - However, the frequency shown seems not working : I set, screen on, to the second lowest possible values for min and max and the frequency is always 527, no matter how long I wait...

So is the frequency really updating ?

Can we really trust this widget ?

2 - I use minfreemanager, does that make advanced task killer useless ? Or both are compatible ?

3 - If I kill the tasks with advanced task killer, is overclock widget still working ?

Thanks for you replies !

aShtk
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
Overclock Widget is not working with MoDaCo 3.x, depends which kernel you do use. Teknologists latest kernel sets your speed, when screen is on always to 527ooo and when phone goes to sleep it is always on 245ooo.

If you use MinFreeManager you can remove AdvancedTaskkiller, I even wouldn´t use A.taskkiller because it sits on the CPU and drains your battery. I use instead TaskPanel.

You have to add the OverclockWidget to the ignore list to avoid killing it with the taskkiller.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Samek:
@Phanes: On Modaco 3.0 ROM: when screen is on min freq is 480000 and max is 528000, when screen is off min and max freq is 245760.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@Samek

I know, that´s why I wrote "..., depends on which kernel you do use". Teknologist kernel 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 or 1.91. With the kernels 1.7 - 1.9 you have a little possibility. With kernel 1.91 you can nothing adjust.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:
I use Modaco 3.1 with kernel 1.5. I think "overclockingWidget" is not working on my system. I have the feeling, that the settings are not set with the widget.

Do u know how i can prevent this and get the "OverclockingWidget" to work on this system and can check if it is working or not?

Regards
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@loki6666

... if you have MCR 3.1 you have automatically Teknologist kernel 1.91. With this kernel you can´t change any setting. It will always have the 527/245 configuration.

You can flash Teknologists kernel 1.8 or 1.9 on you MCR 3.1, then you can set with the OverclockWidget your CPU to min 480 when display is on, but that´s all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:
thx for that helpful info!

Whenever I unlock my phone it gives me a little message saying "set new clock sucessful" - Im not too worried about it but does anyone have any ideas on what is causing this or if it will have any effect on anything else?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hennymugge:
Just check "supress Notification" in de advanced settings of the overclock widget!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomfreay:
Nice tips, I'm not convinced on the spare parts bit, but we shall see!

However I was driving home today (2-3 hour drive) with iGO on, and the phone restarted every half hour or so. Stopped and uninstalled the overclock widget and it was fine the rest of the way home!

Not sure if it will be the same with setCPU, guessing it was getting to hot (didn't check) anyone else found this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kiwi89:

I didn't realize that it was the widget doing that.

I have a problem. I have installed overclock widget, it was working fine, and by error, i delete the widget on the desktop. I thought it would delete only the widget but it seems that it delete everything cause i don't find it in my installed apps or widget.

Then i went to the market to install it again, but when i find it on the marked it tells me that it is installed ???!!!

Then i click on it, and the uninstall button and open button are grey, then i can't click on it.

[Nexus One General] Fking1:
I follow all the news about nexus on a daily basis, but would like to see if any of you guys have heard something about when google will start to officially sell the phone to the rest of the world. Or at least EU, since that's where I'm from :>

And are they gonna still sell it from google.com/phone or they are looking into deals with the local carriers for each country?

Would be nice if they ship it from within EU, so we can avoid the extra taxes.

p.s.

right now its being sold for over $850 here, unofficially :D
[Nexus One General] SBS_:
No idea, Google hasn't come with any officiall dates as far as I know. Didn't cost me more than $650 to get it to Norway, so noone should buy from those that sell at $850.
[Nexus One General] lashtal:
It is officially sold in the UK (which is EU member I believe), so why don't you just forward shipment from there?

It wont take more than extra 50-80$..
[Nexus One General] Fking1:
interesting, how does that work?

do i owe taxes for the import from USA to UK? Or just for the end destination?
[Nexus One General] fresh87:
You can buy it here in the UK from play.com, but at a mere £600 its a rip off!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
I think I made a grave error and updated to the TMO USA 2.02 ROM not knowing it would be watermarked all over the place. So now I'm trying to revert back to HSPL and am having no luck whatsoever. I've read and read and read but can find no clear cut path to downgrade the SPL. I really just want to get back to the WWE 1.66 official release I was running.

Can anybody please help? I've tried flashing all kinds of different ROMS including official roms but nothing works. Even from the memory card is of no help.

I hear gold card mentioned but I have no idea what that is and Google gives billions of results for gold card, nothing that explained it to me. I have to buy a gold card?

Can somebody please help?

Either downgrade my SPL or instruct me on ridding my 2.02 of these water marks. HTC Confidential is printed in the middle.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fards:
if you flash a stock 166 rom then you don't need goldcard.. especially with the 200spl in place.

flashing via ssdcard or using just running the full exe from windows should install the 166 complete including the 142 spl.

I know as I've done it a few times over the last couple of days.

the watermarking is nothing to do with the spl btw.. it's the ddi.dll that's the cause.

next time read a bit more before you go around flashing everything, it will save you some heartache, as the 202 rom has been discussed in some detail adn isn't suitable for noobs to use, as you've found out. .

;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
Thanks. I did try flashing down to the official 1.66 rom WWE and neither the exe from the PC nor the leoimg.nbh worked.

Using the SD card method it flashes gray for a second with some red number up top and then returns to the rainbow bootloader screen and sits.

Using the PC method it boots the phone, gets to 1% of the flash, returns some error about communication and goes back into the 2.02

Honestly, if there were a way to remove the water mark I would be just fine with it all. I tried to replace the ddi.dll with the one from 2.01 earlier in the day but it just froze at the Stick Together first splash screen so I don't know what else to try in that regard.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
I just got done getting the 1.66 official WWE on there via SSPL. For some reason it won't let me install any custom rom via SSPL saying it loses communication with the phone.

Thank you very much for your help.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
OK, thanks for that. Now that I have some links I'll get to reading.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zenkinz:
I'm pretty sure if you get the right official rom for your device, you can place the rom image as leoimg.nbh in your sdcard and it will flash for you including the spl.

had that before so the steps work for me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
I would love to know which one. I know for certain that 1.66 did not work via this method. Do you have any suggestions as to which official ROM package to try?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
edit -deleted in case I'm wrong (more often than not :-) )

Re:Goldcards, to make one for the leo you need PSAS, which is not free. see revskills.de
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zenkinz:
well it does for me... and I don't use goldcard. (unless you consider credit gold card as one:D)

you must make sure you are using an nbh rom that has spl image obviously, otherwise it won't downgrade (or upgrade) depending on your spl version in the nbh
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
so you have flashed the test t mob rom like the OP? that is the only rom to contain the v2 spl.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
Can you give me an example please?

Is it OK to keep my 1.66 official flashed via SSPL on a phone with SPL-2.0? There is no problem with that, right?

In the future something should transpire that makes this problem easier to work with?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] huggy_72:
probably don't help, anyway is your SD fat32 formatted?

if yes or not, you can try to reformat SD and flash from root LEOIMG.nbh extracted from 1.66 official .exe
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cenzor:
This procedure worked for me. Restored back SPL 1.42 from HSPL 2.0 (and HTC Reworked)

I used the first official ROM available on htc.com and extracted the RUU_signed.nbh from it. Renamed to leoimg.nbh, put the file on microSD card, restated while holding the volume down + power button and followed on-screen instructions.

:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] huggy_72:
HSPL 2.0 ?? is this out???

and HTC Reworked you mean the italian chef custom rom? the custom rom don't flash spl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fards:
STOP TRYING TO USE SSPL for this.

it works ***ONLY*** for flashing the os and splash..

it doesnt flash radio or spl

You may need to format you Sdcard or try another one..

try another 166 rom, the exe (NOT the custom ruu or sspl version) will flash this over the top of 200 spl

the 200 spl is MFGR that means it's not region locked, so you dont need a goldcard to flash it..

pm me if you want a hand
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cenzor:
Maybe not sure about the HSPL version, it was the one from here.

And yes, the HTC Reworked was a custom rom (and very buggy unfortunatelly), with 1Ghz patch and 576 RAM enabled.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] l3v5y:
Easiest (possibly) method would be to flash HardSPL and then flash the 1.66 ROM from the SD card. HardSPL will accept an SPL if flashed from SD, and HardSPL will overwrite the 2.00 SPL.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fards:
will HSPL go over the 200 rom?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] balane:
For me it does not. I tried HSPL many times with no luck. It always returns an error saying I must have SPL 1.42 in order for it to work and then resets back to OS.
