scaling_available_frequencies ?

[Guest skymera]

Hi,

I'm looking into different overclock apps and they all seem to fail or simply force close.

Upon investigating the logcat it seems this virtual file is missing:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

Is there any possibility to have a kernel that creates this?

My understanding of this area is basic at most unfortunately.

Thanks!

some of the custom roms (eg JJ9) have an overclockable kernel which works with setcpu

SetCPU hangs for me, plus I'd like to try other things.

Thanks for response! I'm on JJ9 now

SetCPU works fine with JJ - in fact JJ was made to work with SetCPU.

However, don't use "Set on Boot" as that is looking for something that probably isn't there.

Be aware that

1/ different roms may enable different frequencies

Android System Info (free from Market) shows >system>cpu the available frequencies

and most importantly

2/ a frequency being 'available' does not imply that it will, or ever has ever, run on any Blade/SF. Its simply something that, by twiddling the knobs, can physically be requested - which has no connection with the cpu's ability to operate like that. The cpu is guaranteed to run happily at 600. How much faster than 600 any individual specimen of that cpu model might go without tripping up and "hanging" the phone (if it will actually go ANY faster than 600 without tripping up) is purely a matter of the vagaries and variables of the silicon chip manufacturing process.
