Processor Speed

[HPJ]

Hi

Is there an area on the xda2s where you can maximise your processor speed? On my old Dell x3 you could choose 'max perfromance' or 'conserve battery' etc.

It's just for a 400mhz product it gets quite slow sometimes..........

Apologies if this has already been asked....I did search for it but couldn't find anything...

Thanks in advance,

HPJ

Your right for a 400Mhz it's sometimes slow ... d'ont understand it ...

My previous device was a 400Mhz aswell, and was much faster.
Maybe it has something to do because it has a build-in phone?

Have you tried

won't it damage the cpu of our pda?.

Not if you dont push it too far! It defaults to 472MHz max, you can switch off this limit and take it further. Mine is stable at 472MHz, never tried to take it further. Overclocking generally wont damage the CPU unless you are daft. As a rule, the PDA will just crash if you take the clock speed too far. The crash may mean a hard reset if you are unlucky!

In short you can kill the proc through overclocking, but its unlikely.

One point to note is that the 'auto scale with cpu load' option on xcpuscaler is a load of cr@p. Does not seem to work at all.

I mainly use xcpuscaler to slow down my proc to 200MHz, dont need 400 MHz to read avantgo or an ebook, or listen to an MP3, but running at 200MHz does give a reasonable increase in battery life.

I have installed the xcpus..., do I configure it so that it varies the speed automatically, but is it always constant to 400 mhz??

does somebody know because??

thank you

Anyone has a copy of XCPU2.85 which is not trial version. Mine has expired.

2.82 does not work in 2nd edition.

Try using Pocket Hack Master from Anrom Tomov. Runs good on the QTEK 9090. See www.handango.com

Dunno if any of you realize this but be careful should you decide to remove pocket hack master..

i noticed that it does not clear the registry of its CPU settings... i found this out by uninstalling the software (after setting cpu speed to 472)... and when i reinstalled it again.. the software defaulted to 472 mhz..

make sure you go to the registry to get rid of some of the settings... just do a registry search for anton and remove the reg entries..

sorry if you guys already know this.. and i don't know if left behind registry keys mean anything if the software is not active but better be safe than sorry right? and i'm a noob here so just trying to help out :)
