mmh - i don't have such Problems with XCPUScalar...
If SoftReset doesn't help, maybe the CPU-Clock is too low for Camera
- can't imagine that but why not ;)

Can I replace the carrier.gif file with any other .gif or does that file must have specifications (colors, measures,...) to make the system boot properly ? What if i just delete and do not replace the file ?

I don't have that carrier.gif and it Displays the actual Provider as text
- so you can delete it...
When replacing i would use the same pixeldimensions...

Too low ? no... ;) softreset helps, even closing Xcpuscalar... but that sucks. ;)


edit: is there a simple way to turn on/off bluetooth by klicking on a icon or something else ? Dont want everytime to go to the settings. ;)

And what wasnt answered yet: How high have you overclocked your ppc ? ;) My MDAc 2 runs fine @ 472MHz ! (scared of switching to 500 :D)

my PDA works perfect at 650 MhZ. I use Pocket Hack Master. But my Qtec is Very hot at this frequecy. :P

But this isnt a PPC like mine? (MDA compact 2) or ? Cant really imagine that it would run that high. Whats your stock frequency?

it's Qtec S100. the original frequency is 416 Mhz. It's quite a problem when you want to overclock magician, cause as far as i know the bus frequency is locked by the manufacturer. But it can be changed a little :wink: I used "half turbo" in pocket hack master. also, i tested my PDA in TCMP by playing the movie. The results are very good! :D
P.S. in XCPUScalar I had NO increase of speed according to the tests.

@woveside: can u give me the exact settis for qtek s100 ? when i tried to overclock my device with pocket hack master, aftet clicking on "test settings" my device locked up, even after a soft reset it didnt work, i had to hard reset it to work again. and xcpuscalar didnt have any effect.

The original frequency is 416MHz ? Thought that I have read that it was lower..... okay, my fault. ;) Putting Xcpuscalar to 300 oder 400 makes is much faster opening applications, etc! Dont know why. ;) Pocket Hack Master wont even start! :(

XCPUScalar DOES NOT work on the MDACompact2 - even the developer says so - it may display numbers but it isnt doing anything

The MDAc2 runs at 180Mhz and you have to use OMAPCLOCK as they have OMAP processors - not x-Scale

OMAP 180 is 'supposed' to be equivalent to x-scale 400

You can use OMAP Clock to run at about 250-275... There another thread running on this.

My opinion is the advantage of OMAP is the battery use is much more phone like compared to the power hungry x-scale

@megabug: How did you use Omapclock ? When I open it with my Data Explorer it shows for about a second my system speed and closes itself again without having time to change the speed for me.

180 Mhz?I thought tha the Magician has a ARM XScale @ ~400 Mhz cpu.
At least that`s what my manual says...Please confirm. I tested Pocket Hack Master and I changed the speed @520 Mhz.I didn`t run any program to test if this is a true speed though.
Where do we find OMAP Speed?

mate can you post a copy up or a link,
does it makes a big diff to the performance?

So... pocket hack master doesn`t really work on magician?
OMAP v. 0.2 doesn`t work either.It opens and closes very quick. Any idea?

omap is for omap cpu devices such as the prophet and wizard.. it wont work on the magician.

Ok, now i`m comfused...
Which program do i need to overclock my magician(s100)?
Which is it`s initial frequency and which it`s optimal?
