[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Morkha:
I have a question. I'm new to android (don"t even have a android phone since the desire z is not released yet)

When I use VISIOnary to temp. root my G2/Desire Z and overclock it i will loose my warranty as far as i know.

Will i be able to get it returned without problem after i removed visionary since the G2 is going back to its factory settings without VSIONarey running?

Or will for example Amazon notice that it was rooted?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] grex49:
No you will not void your warranty, correct me if im wrong anyone but all u have to do is uninstall the VISIOary app or if u plan on returning your device do a factory reset. ;) Thats what i did and it was returned with no problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] swhtownboy:
How hot should the battery get...I was running at 1.3ghz and my battery was at 108f,u went down to 1.1ghz....is 108f normal?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LickTheEnvelope:
No the only time you will lose warranty without fix (that i'm aware of) is if you end up doing a hard-root and while in the process you brick the phone.

Even then I have read there's sometimes a fix.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Morkha:
THX for the replies. Now I'm pretty much sold on the Desire-Z. Does every G2 run stable at 1 GHz or are there some really bad ones which don't even get to 1 GHz?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
Well the cpu is set to 1 GHz by default but our OS underclocks it to the 800 speed
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Akulamenuri:
The highest my phone can go without freezing is 1.497ghz but I set it back to stock for the time being (806mhz with screen off profile via SetCpu).

The overclocking obviously works (Quadrant and Linpack through the roof) but outside of running something high-end like a Playstation game I don't see a big difference in every day use. Applications open at nearly the same speed, web pages render the same, and flash content streams at the same framerate (to my eye anyway).

Does anyone else feel that overclocking is more bragging rights than practical use?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mattseg:
I'm on 175 hours and 41 minutes of straight uptime running 1ghz.

It's stable.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xKERNALx:
I have finally made my video of how to do this, I might redo it if there's a high enough demand, simply because it's hard to see the files in the beginning.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qg7tvfcE0gs

[youtube]qg7tvfcE0gs[/youtube]

Also, I am currently running at 1555 mhz, or about 1.5 ghz. Fully stable, no freeze or lag.

Although I havent gotten my Quadrant into the 26xx's
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] luis86dr:
Cool video, Saw your theme. What theme and widgets you use? Looks pretty sweet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xKERNALx:
The widgets are all off of ProLauncherPlus.

The wallpaper is just one I found off google.

the iconpack was listed by shibby in a different thread

http://xdaforums.com/atta...1&d=1287271791

just drag them to the sd card once mounted, have to be running some sort of launcher I believe to use them. Maybe I'll make a video on that if there's some demand.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Phonekenstein:
@reignzone & @"the great ny"

Note: CPUs in our phones and all devices for that matter have diferent thresholds before erroring/hanging. As well this post isn't a tutorial on getting a device to run at this specific speed, it is just a brief outline of my configuration that I got to run after a few hours of fiddling with settings and removing services that would interup and hang the G2.

TURN OFF COMPATABILITY MODE. INSTALL SpareParts.apk FROM THE MARKET OR USE A VERSION FROM A RECENT ROM SUCH AS CYANOGENMOD 6.x.

The default rom had wifi, sensors, visual effects, services & syncing disabled for the benchmarking with Quadrant.

I set vision_oc.ko module at pll2_l_val=82

SetCPU uncheck "set at boot" since your testing and may hang.

SetCPU min & max set at 1574

SetCPU scaling set at performance

when done benchmarking

SetCPU min value to 245mhz

SetCPU scaling set to "on demand"

SetCPU advanced tab and set sampling to 50000

SetCPU advanced tab and set threshold to 95

SetCPU info tab and watch the CPU frequency while having an idle load on the CPU.

You would want the minimum 245765khz to be the idling CPU frequency if the value is constantly much higher than adjust sampling and threshold values in SetCPU advanced tab to other values to try to get the CPU Frequency to stay at a lower setting yet still having it scale up and be responsive.

Check Coolbho3000's website http://www.pokedev.com/setcpu/ as he has info on those settings and so forth and importantly get the paid version of SetCPU from the market and support Coolbho3000 and the most important app we all use.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xKERNALx:
did all this, was running at 1574

and then i opened the keyboard and my phone froze, back at 1555
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Phawkes:
I would like to know this as well. I don't want to fry my phone or give up battery life for the sake of saying im at 1.xx.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] icon_x:
I had issues with stability at 75, so I pushed up to 77 and it went stable, now up to 83 stable.

It's very true that not every G2 will work at a given speed. A friend of mine with the same phone can only max out at a val of 79.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bananaclawz86:
Hmm...I do notice a huge speed boost in psx4droid with this enabled, though there are huge compatibility issues in that app I guess, due to the Tmobile G2 just being released. I did notice however, that when playing NOVA (3.4.2)...or other "HD" gaming apps (from gameloft mostly) the frame rate always CAPS at 30 constant (I have a good eye), where when I installed an EARLIER version of NOVA or OTHER non HD games (1.5) and the frames were a solid 60FPS+. I was wondering if there was in anyway, a possible that an unlock Frame per second exists in this phone...or maybe some app can create this?

Just curious. Oh btw my G2 is using Visionary and OCed at 1.459 GHz

Thx
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
im not sure what im doing wrong, im rooted, and in su (it has # instead of $, so im sure of that) i type in adb push c:\vision_oc.ko data/local/ and it just replies

adb: not found

what am i doing wrong?!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
Make sure you are in the sdk/tools/ folder that contains adb, unless you have modified your path to include the sdk folder (assuming you are on windows).

Edit: Are you typing this from a dos prompt / linux terminal, or on the phone itself?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nycjv321:
question

Is there anyway to remove the kernel module without rebooting?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
Ya im doing it from dos.

Im in c:\androidsdk\tools then I type adb shell to bring up $ and su for the #. Does nothinf but.say not.found.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
dir a*

should look like this. No adb.exe ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johnlebaron:
This works great. Would love for it to work without having to redo it every time I reboot.

But what a fantastic start. Root, Wifi Hotspot and fast almost right out of the box.

Fantastic.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
Yup looks just like that.

edit: if i dont do adb shell, and just type it out at the c:\androidsdk\tools\ then abd push c:\vision_oc.ko data/local/ it just says

"5kb/s <0 bytes in 5752.001s>"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
just a thought. Copy vision_oc.ko to your sdk/tools folder, then

adb push vision_oc.ko /data/local/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
all i get is:

359 kb/s <0 bytes in 5752.001s>

im sure im making a stupid mistake, im just so new to this.

edit: btw, i did buy setcpu, but i cant seem to make changes useing that either.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
Damn. Try downloading the vision_oc.ko file again. Put it in the sdk/tools folder. And make sure you include the "/" before /data/local/.

I can't figure out why this isn't working!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
ok, i redownloaded, and still the same thing.....

one time its 5kb/s <0 bytes in 5752.001s>

then its 359kb/s <0 bytes in 5752.001s>

back and forth each time i try it.... im so lost.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
You are rooted right? Nevermind, I know you are, you said so.

Try: adb devices

Does it show your phone? Then try the adb push again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
ya it shows the phone, it always has..still nothing.

i have usb debuggin on, and i have switched back and forth from mounting the sd card and unmounting it, either way says the same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
Try this:

Put "vision_oc.ko" on the root of your sdcard

Write up this file in gscript (from market) and save it as "whatever.sh"

Run the script you just made

cp /sdcard/vision_oc.ko /data/local/modules/
chmod 755 /data/local/modules/vision_oc.ko

Afterward create and run this script, also in gscript

insmod /data/local/modules/vision_oc.ko pll2_l_val=74

You can change the "74" to whatever over clock you want
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theratdude64:
Today I ran GPS google maps navigation and my phone got rather toasty. It never did that before and the only difference I can think is that I am now slightly overclocked (1ghz) . Anyone else have this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dalamak:
Can we just make this a sticky tutorial, and close this. Temp root is here, its easy and no one needs to hear anymore more bragging about bench scores, or battery conservation by lowering volts. Lets wrap it up here lol, no but seriously
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
How do I put it on the root of the sd card?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
Try running navigation again with normal clock speeds to see if the same result happeps

People still have problems obtaining temp root and over clocking, this is where they get help, no one is complaining
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
Connect your phone to your computer then mount the sd card.

Browse to your sd card from your computer.

Copy the file to your sd card. (the "root" of your sd card is the base folder, as in the root directory of C:/docs/pics is C:/)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dalamak:
God someone make a Tutorial LOL

oh wait

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797042

lol

OH god people read, this is why a america rates so far behind in test scores
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
Pull down the notification bar. Where it says "turn on USB storage". Click it. Click the button to turn on USB storage.

The Android icon should turn Orange. When it does your SD Card is visible to Windows/linux.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
The phone is going to get hot over clocked. Nothing you can do about that. I have setup a SetCPU profile to throttle the CPU speed back to stock when the temp exceeds 100 deg F
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dalamak:
just don't go crazy with the oc, I run mine at 1ghz, no need for more.

This ain't an I7 quad gtx480 phone with a koolance liquid cooling system lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
Agree x100
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dalamak:
thanks lol, so let us retire this thread to a guide, and people can get new info from the changelog if there is any updates. Cause if you can't follow the steps laid out in this thread you shouldn't be OC'ing your phone anyway :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
i tried to run the first code, and it says "stderr: cp: not found" any ideas?

the next line is "stderr:unable to chmod /data/local/modules/

vision_oc.ko: no such file or directory"

but i put the vision_oc.ko on the root of the sd.

edit: i re did the code, now it just says "stderr: cp: not found" and "stderr:chmod: not found"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
sorry, im hella new to this...i read a ton, i cant seem to figure out how to load this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
You should install busybox. Install titanium backup from the market, run it, click problems button and then install busybox. After that you can uninstall titanium backup (although its awesome and you should keep it) then rerun the commands
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
did that, didnt even uninstall titanium backup, same issue

"stderr: cp: not found"

stderr: chmod: not found"

edit: i had a capital Cp, i changed it now it says;

stderr: cp cannot creat /data/local/modules/:is a directory

stderr: chmod: not found
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccb04:
So what was the answer?? I have my max at 1420..and the min at 768..Seems to work great..Get quadrants of around 2400 and sometimes 2500..Linpack at 50-51
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xKERNALx:
btek, just do this.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
Glad you finally got it working!

Could someone post a screen shot of the benchmark of the stock device without the overclock? Just wondering what the difference is?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btek:
anyone having heatin issues? soon as I overclock to 1ghz im at 104F in a matter of minutes, thats without running any programs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xKERNALx:
Haven't had this problem and I've been at 1.55 GHZ

I always stay under 100, but I do also have a profile that returns it back to 8xx when temps raise above 105.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] geetwo:
Loving the overclock :)

And yay for set cpu so I can save battery during screen off and get full performance anytime else.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xxroor:
Ok so i have a question everytime i run my phone on oh**** it stays at 1420ghz then it goes back to normal any idea why? also everytime i turn my phone off i have to run gscript then run noreboot then oh**** or oc correct? i just dontk know what it runs for like 5mins then goes back to normals ghz.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Have you checked your profiles on your setcpu?maybe that's y it keeps on coming down to 7's
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Did you download superuser..?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Blakeman:
Thank you. This is seriously great.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
Are you using the widget. The widget makes mine stick at normal clock after I oc it. Idk why it just does so I don't use it. If u are using it get rid of it go back to set cpu make it detect settings again set your clock speed and that'll work. I tested this because I used linpack and kept getting scores in the 20s at 1.4gz. I got rid of the widget and reset my clockspeeds did a linpack then a couple minutes linpack browse the web then bam linpack again ,all 50s

Please help me with the gscript method 1.42 overclock

Please help me with the gscript method 1.42 overclock

I have rooted and completed the overclock using the gscript method. However I can not sustain in. Every time I go back into the phone is says 806 MHz.

How do I get it to stay at 1.42GHz?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wiesox:
I have the same issue. I have superuser as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rhcp011235:
Everytime i use the visionar.sh it freezes my phone OR it wont root.

Anyone else having this issue? Or found a fix?

Ive done all the norm stuff. Chmod 755 etc.

Also, Using gscript method to load the module. Then when i load setcpu. It always shows a low number then i need to have it detect then it goes to 1.4.

Anyone found a fix for this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Radioactive Death:
I've only done this via terminal emulator on the phone, but after I change a speed using:

rmmod vision_oc.ko
insmod /data/local/vision_oc.ko pll2_l_val=whatevernumberyouwant

it always sticks for me no matter what. Not sure why you guys are having problems.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Blakeman:
I followed a youtube video and overclocked doing almost everything on my phone and only used the computer to drop in one file to the sd card. It works great.

Thank you for the overclock. It really makes the phone great.

Overclock works great
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Towle:

I'm trying the gscript method but I get an error that the application can not locate data/local/vision.co or something like that. I'm trying to load the oshiiiit file btw. What did I miss?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mcp2009:
yea runs smooth as butter. I'm bout to go to the browser and try some flash videos see if there's an improvement, been running benchmarks and psx games all were great
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] milenko11:
gscripts work great. thank you!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jigga0o7:
Yeah mine froze on the PLL value of 83. I'm gonna do a Quadrant Advanced run at 82 which I believe was 1.574ghz and see how that goes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] The Great NY:
thanks for this. i have purchased setcpu as well.

its awesome
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:
i cried when i got FF7 working with no lag. Flash video has no lag either!!!!!!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mcp2009:
first you should have on vision_oc.ko on root of sdcard and then run cpoc.sh (to copy vision_oc.ko to /data/local/) wait til gscript says close (autoclose in XX secs) then click close and then afterwards run oshittt.sh for 1.42ghz or oc for 1ghz
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gr8gorilla:
Set to 1.4 ghz I managed to get a 50.38 Linpack that was 76 for all devices and a 2315 quadrant score. I wonder how that will affect the battery?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mcp2009:
I spoke too soon :( after running neocore it finally froze
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:
lol I got it to die on mega video at the 79 setting but it was great at the 74 one. I think I'm sticking to that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mcp2009:
lol yea. I'm gonna start from 78 and keep going down to 74 to see what's highest but stable. Yes I'm bored :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:
did you run the other script first? the oshiiiit file only works after you have placed the module on your phone. It sounds like you didn't push yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:
Do me a favor and pm where you stop?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] innerlight:
Hows the battery life?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:

no prob on 78 now. Gonna use it very intensively and see
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arcadia310:
And where do I get vision_oc.ko at? I really appreciate the help man thanks a bunch.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] soundslikemitch:
from the first post. Do you you want to im me so I can walk you through this? PM me your gmail or a number i can call you at that is not your G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KShatzkes:
Amazing! Have it going at the recommended 1.42 GHz and its running like a dream!

I feel like the $1.99 I donated by buying SetCPU doesn't even come close to what you deserve!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] calador:
Actually you don't need a computer if you manually put the .ko URL into Skyfire, which will properly download it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wookieloou:
Anyone tested this after the OTA update?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jigga0o7:
It's no longer working at the moment. There will likely need to be an update to the coding to support this new OTA.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pfurnanz:
Kernel module needs to be rebuilt for the new kernel so it won't work until someone does that.

According to the readme from the source, we should be able to run it with a few extra options. I pulled out my /proc/kallsyms and got these values after the OTA update:

acpu_freq_tbl: c0550258

perflock_notifier_call: c006bdd4

However, when I add them in as command-line options, I still get the Exec format error.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] coolbho3000:
All right, grabbing the new OTA, going to compile a new module soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] regalatre:
Nice! Thanks for all you do for the community!
