Not every phone owner can afford to change it with the release of a new version. And the older the phone gets, the more applications start to slow down and glitch. In such cases, you can overclock the android yourself.
Why overclock android
In addition to the above, you can overclock your phone so that it does not slow down from an overabundance of applications. In any case, overclocking the processor is kind of helping the device perform better. Its performance will be an order of magnitude higher, and, therefore, the need to buy a new device will disappear. In addition, after overclocking the android, its work in applications and games will be simplified.
But there are also disadvantages that anyone who wants to overclock their phone's operating system should know. All the disadvantages fall on the action of the phone's battery, which will drain very quickly. In addition, the user will feel quite intense heat.
How to overclock android
The primary task for the phone user will be to find information about the device. Overclocking is not valid for all processors. If the owner of 1 nuclear processor wants to overclock it, then you can immediately answer that his idea is simply pointless. Most likely, when you try to overclock such a processor, the phone will be damaged beyond repair.
When you try to overclock the Android operating system, internal system files will undergo changes. Typically, native firmware does not allow standard speed changes. The user will need to select the firmware version where the kernel was replaced. It is imperative to find information that says that in this version of the firmware, independent actions to change the speed are allowed.
You need to install one of the applications to help you overclock your android. It can be AnTuTuCPU Master or SetCPU.
To use these applications, the owner of the smartphone must have Root rights.
How to overclock Android with AnTuTuCPU Master
AnTuTuCPU Master has both paid and free versions. Since the free version has the minimum set required for overclocking, you don't have to buy the full version. The undoubted plus of the program is the support of the Russian language. Which greatly simplifies the work. In addition, the profiles in the program are also divided. For advanced users it is better to go to the "I / O Scheduler" item. This can be done in the "Extensions" section.
Voltage performance can be monitored with this program. If for the purposes of the smartphone user it is not provided for obtaining the highest possible graphics, then you can click "ondemand / interactive". Thus, it will be possible to get maximum power on the phone, while significantly saving charging. The program will only occasionally ask for overclocking rights.
How to overclock Android with SetCPU
The second program for overclocking Android is paid. It can also be downloaded from the Google play service. The advantage of the application is the variety of possible manipulations with the phone.
After installation, the program itself will begin to analyze the smartphone and select the most optimal overclocking method. If desired, the user can turn on the manual mode and change the settings manually.
First you need to get Root rights and click on the "Recomended" item. After the user of the device confirms the settings that were recommended by the program, the device will be completely ready for overclocking.
While the application is running, you can see the frequency of the smartphone at the current time and the active mode on the screen. If desired and knowledgeable, the user can edit the frequency. But it is better to trust the program if there is not enough knowledge in the principles of smartphone operation. If the processor of the smartphone is single-core, then the frequency can be increased to 128 or 245 MHz. The processor of the phone simply will not be able to pull the frequency higher. It is important to understand that the change in frequency should in no case be made abruptly. You can continue to change the frequency only after making sure that the device is working normally at the moment. The goal in this process is to find the minimum or maximum frequency for a particular device. The maximum allowable frequency values for a multi-core device are no more than 1 GHz, and for a single-core device it is no more than 1.6 GHz.
If the user does not want to delve into the essence of the operation of a particular mobile device, then you can simply give permission to the SetCPU program to start working automatically when the phone is turned on. To do this, simply select the "ondemand / interactive" mode of operation. And in the menu, select the item "Set on boot". As a result, the program will do all the overclocking work on its own.
