Has anybody overclocked Artemis with omap clock?

[victoradjei]

Hi Artemis owners. I want to know if any of you has tried the various overclocking versions of omapclock on your device. I just cancelled my order for trinity and paced one for artemis. Initial decision to go for trinity was more for speed, but I just changed my mind.

Do we still need to dope this gadget for speed?

Victor

[MasK]

Yeah.. this is an almost perfect device for me.. but the speed turns me off. Someone told me it works faster than a stock 416Mhz device after overclocking it... and he used an 818pro before.

So victor.. you've used the 818pro.. what are your views on the OMAP processor?

[victoradjei]

The battery statusand omap clock program by Ikarius in the prophet section was super on my prophet. Now that he has added onto it I believe it would be even better:)

The weak processor is also a big turnoff for me in this phone. The Spb Pocket Plus today screen with the large icons I think is perfect for the mouse, but it seems the Artemis cant even handle it at times.

Have you overclocked?

Have you overclocked?

No but i'm going to try that right now. Any suggestions...

Please do try and multitask after/before overclocking and compare the difference..
Stuffs like keep your MP3s playing in the background while running tomtom or surfing the net. Let us know if you notice any unacceptable lag. Thanks!

[mastelos]

Has anybody overclocked yet???

[CAVADIAS]

I overclocked it and using it for the last twodays. Used omapclock @ 252mhz, no problems so far.

[Lord Buckingham]

My experience is the same as Cavadias, I have been using my Orbit with Omap clock running at 252MhZ and it works fine with applications such as TOM TOM 6 and push mail in the background.

In that case, those who do not need UMTS have an alternative to Trinity if speed is the main deciding factor :)

[CAVADIAS]

To clarify I used the Omapclockplus v0.0.4 continuous overclocking for your wizard (See threat). It works.

[new-boy]

I've overclocked compact 3 to 252MHz, it's stable to run tomtom6, as 262MHz cannot run tomtom, but other programs is OK. If using file explorer to opened windows, it was almost need 45sec to explore all files as normal MHz, when overclocked to 525MHz it will be fasted about 10 sec.:)

I overclocked it for the last three days(Dopod P800W). Used BatteryStatus omapclock @ 286mhz, no problems so far.

[victoradjei]

Can you feed back on battery life with your 286, and usage: whether normal phone use or gps navigation?

There is a known issue here with the windows file structure so even if the device is not over clocked this folder will take ages to display the contents. Using resco explorer seems to be quicker !

Ya managed to get the Dopod already? Seems to be it's only avail in China and Taiwan. Still waiting for it's launch in Singapore.
May I know whats the AKU version of your device? Thanks!

[MasK]

Guys.. I got a quick question..

When using BatteryStatus.. if the plugin is active under my Today settings, but under options, I untick the "show splugin"
Does it mean my device is still being overclocked? Any other methods to check if it's running at full throttle?
Thanks!

[apap]

I have been overclocking at 232 and it works fine. Judging from what others' say I could probably push it higher.

I would also like to know if the program works in the background even when it is not set to sho on the today screen.

If you have TCPMP installed, you could check the clock speed in TCPMP's general settings page when you have the BatteryStatus plugin hidden. This tends to report slower speeds than Omapclock, but at least you will see if there is a difference. (Mine says 240 in Omapclock and 225 in TCPMP). Good luck. :)

[catmat]

With program called "BatteryStatus" i'm overclocked P3300 with cpu scalar - in standby mode, processor used 136mhz, in boost mode - 286 Mhz. Phone worked normal, without bug'z or any softreset's .

Hi!

This is what is stated in the FAQ:

The "General"-Tab allows to set the main-functions.

ToDay-Screen BatteryStatus Options General

* Show Plugin: You must leave this option checked to see BatteryStatus on the today-screen. If you dont want the plugin to be visible on the today-screen (working in the background), then you can uncheck this option.

So it seams like the answer is yes!

[MasK]

Thanks dude..
Yeah I kinda figured.. since I can feel the sense of speed!
Dang.. at 273Mhz.. it actually out-performs my former rw6828!!

[sas90850]

I overclocked to 264Mhz without any problem.

However, I try to overclock the speed, 276Mhz and 288Mhz. It hang my P800W and I need to soft reset.

Why you guy can overclock to 276MHz and even 288Mhz without problem?

[gzamba]

To clarify I used the Omapclockplus v0.0.4 continuous overclocking for your wizard (See threat). It works.

I have overclocked my Artemis (P3300) at 240 for a couple of weeks and it works fine. Using OmapclockPlus 0.4

[apap]

I have overclocked to 234 for a few days without problem. I have also reached 286 without a problem but have only tried it for short time spans.

[Imer]

Hi,

From time to time, I use mine @234 MHz with Battery Status.
But to be honest, I don't see a very big difference between 201 and 234 MHz. What about you guys ?

Well.. I'm at 273 with BatteryStatus.. and yes, I can feel it. Can't tell it's an OMAP really.. Puts the Xscales to shame.

With other softwares like omapclock, It seems to default back to lower speed.. so can't be sure if it's really being overclocked.. especially after a reset.

That is because there is a known issue with omapclockplus that makes the processor default back to 186mhz when the unit is put in standby and then quickly powered back on within 10 - 30 sec. If you wait 30 sec after you go to standby and then turn it back on, you will see that the processor is being scaled properly to whatever you had it set with omapclockplus. ;)

Thanks for the info. That means, it's a pretty handicap app!
BatteryStatus does the job very well :)

Hi again,

Do you note if the autonomy discrease with overclock ?

[richiev4]

Hi All

Quick Question - Can you underclock using this software, to save battery?

Thanks

[MrButcher]

You can, but only with the beta version.

you can also enable a boost mode in case a program is launched.
im using this software since 2 weeks without problems.

[richiev4]

Thanks for the info.

Are you using the Artemis? if so, how far have you overcloked it too?

Thanks again

Rich

Tried Xcpuscale2007 and works great at 260MHz

[RAKOON2007]

Hi everybody, I'm using Battery Status ver 0.04.200, this today plugin gives U a battery bar (and more) on the today screen AND, the possibility to overclock your machine up to 260 Mhz. My Artemis just freeze if I go more.
try this web site : http://www.chi-tai.info
On this site U can see there a new extended version try it it work fine and give U even more options...
Enjoy

[hawk971]

Hi All,

exactly how much is speed a limiting factor when the device is not overclocked. I mean - is it usable for basic functions like phone, email, office document reading ?
Does the standard speed become a limiting factor in usage like games, mp3/video playing etc. ?

I'm planning to buy one ...

Thank you

[RAKOON2007]

According to bat status I was talking about, it says 201 mhz
I personaly use a lot TOMTOM and it works fine to me
Now the trick is not to open too many applications at the same time
Remember that with PPC in general you do not close an application by pressing the close button you just minimize it. To realy close your applications you should use some of the soft that realy close the application like (SPB pocket Plus, Tascal Close All,...)
To give U a straight answer to your question I am a satisfied user, I mean I use it for Mp3, I use it for reading my Emails, and for microsoft excel and powerpoint, and some times for watching some small movies, ans I have never had any problem. Overclocking gives you like 1 1/2 seconds speed to access your files...

but are you overclocking, or are you satisfied by 201 MHz ?
Thanks

[grun]

I have to say that I agree with Rakoon2007. My MDA Compact III is still in the same condition it came in, the only thing 'extra' is the installation of the provided virusscanner (F-Secure) and Total Commander. That its. And I don't know whether or not it has something to do with it, but I don't have any of the problems that others seem to experience alot. Never had a corrupt microsd card (and I have used 3 different ones, 512, 1014 and 2048Mb in size), nor ever had a lost connection which seems to be a big problem here in the Netherlands with the T-Mobile network, according to the many complaints in local fora. Or maybe I'm just lucky? :)

[JC#79]

Has anyone used Pocket Hack master by Antontomov, is it any good I have been using it since last week but have not really overclocked to any great speed only 208mhz and even that seems faster than standard 201mhz.

Has anyone had any issues with this program, as I am going to up to 247mhz in the coming days as it is the safe speed shown by the program for the processor?

and its working ok for you ? It seems to be working ok for me.

One qu., when it goes into sleep mode, it clocks back to 200MHz right, but when you wake it up, it jumps back to 273 Mhz. Is this correct ?

I tried Pocket Hack Master, it does work very well and will stress test each setting for you. the scale feature is very good, gives you more MHz when you need them and less when you don't.

I have since removed it (trial period ran out) and am currently using the enhanced version of Battery Status which works really well, and it still allows you to over and under clock the processor. and best off all it's free.

Hope this helps

Richard.

Hello,
Silly question perhaps but just started overclocking my Artemis (Orbit) up to 252 with Omapclock 0.2, yet after a soft reset it returns to 186...is this normal? Do you have to overclock everytime after a reset? Thanks

[amino]

when you reboot it will show the origial clock speed on the today screen, turn it off and back on and it should overclock to whatever you set it to

[hb328_dtdd]

Mine is running at 273mhz and very stable

[Bart1981]

Mine is runnig at 260, stable, but when I fire it up to the 273 it jams within a few seconds.

Btw the newest Battery Status is 1.04

Hi,
I use Battery Status and my ARTEMIS works perfect in 299MHz. It stack sometimes only with 312MHz, but with 299MHz everything is ok and every program runs much quicker.

[gilsonluis]

I use omapclock in my HTC P3300 (Artemis)

overclock 240 MHz
above 80 % Load
underclock 160 MHz
Below 30 % load
defeult speed 210MHz
Max clock step 30 MHz
Update period 1000 ms
clock threshold 3 periods

Works fine and economize battery

[leyton01]

mine runs stable at 286mhz - crashed at 299mhz. Definitely quicker than stock. genuine dopod p800w with the relevant ROM.

[stemoneymonkey]

downloaded battery status ext 1.04 and don't know how to install it. just got my orbit today can anybody advise me please

[sama]

each processor will have different abilities than others. some will be able to handle very high clocks whilst others will start to miscalculate at much lower clocks. that's why they're always set to the lowest common stable clock speed.

just thought i'd let people know that :)

[Bart1981]

Just put the *.cab file on your device and click it, now batterystatus will install.

How do you do this? I have downloaded and installed Omapclock and it only lets me set one speed.

[sprainedmind]

Using batterystatus 1.04, set to 247Mhz above 80% load and 163Mhz below 60% and it works fine apart from when charging, when it seems to go straight to 247Mhz and stay there. This means charging takes longer and the unit gets noticeably hotter than usual. Does anyone have a work-around for this?

TIA

use battery status program is much better.
