ICS update processor speed increase - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Did anyone else notice that the processor speed is now saying 1.6 ghz? Did the ICS update increase the default clock speed? Speeds checked in setcpu and smart bench.

Several threads on this already actually

Yes others have noticed what you are referring to, no your TFP is not clocked at 1.6 now.

I'm pretty sure the maximum clock speed is set at 1.6GHz only but it's currently clock speed is only at 1.3GHz.

It only reaches 1.6ghz while browsing the Asus website.

I must be missing it, what do you use to monitor the processor speed?

Damn you Asus. I knew they would add a great new feature only to limit it some way. Lol.

There are plenty of apps in the market for this.
Sorry if there were other threads, the search function on the android app sucks. I looked at the first 40 or so posts in Q&A and General before posting and didn't see anything.

I would LOVE to get it as well....it was in the DEV devices sent out before release to companies for review but from what I have seen, we cannot get it yet....nvidia should release the apk...or maybe its ASUS though because that just boast the awesomeness of the tegra 3 even more
Just use system tuner app. Its the best. Does what you say n alot more.

What is max overclock ferquency???

I run 1.6Ghz on tegra3. Can I get more like 1.8Ghz??? I use ATP tweek

We wontbe able to know till we get there. No where to tell but It has a great possibility of being pretty stable. Yes tegra3 does really have 5 cores. 4 cores n 1 companion core. The companion core is what helps gives us great battery life.
I read on one web site that will be tegra3 used in the automotive industry! I cant wait to see tegra4 with 8cores and Cortex-A15 chip

Yeah. I believe its Audi. Going to be used to power their in dash console system/PC. Its in the tegrazone. There is an article on it in there.

Quadrant updated!

I just got an update to Quadrant Standard and I'm hitting 4500+ in performance mode! Anyone else hitting that without o/c?

I got 5088 as my score on the second go around with it running at 1.6ghz. At stock I got 5003.

Its always amazing to see how much powerful prime/tegra3 is then any other device. Its never by a little bit. It's always by a landslide that puts it in a class of its own.
Why is the CPU, memory, I/O taking so long? Sheesh! 2d/3d is where it excels. FYI I'm still on HC 3.2.1. Getting about 3300 roughly each tests.
Cf bench is still better at really getting a feel of how well your tablet performs. Alot of these others are just for flash n don't really take into account for multicores. CF was made for multicore devices. Only drawback is it takes so long compared to others..lol
I'll do cf-bench and give it a go. I couldn't beloved it scored that well considering the crap ton of background processes I had running. I like this thing more and more everyday.
I wish ASUS would put a rush on that bootloader unlock tool

Here's an interesting one (to me anyway).
Rooted+ATP tweak (noop, turbo 2, interactive):
just over 5000
Rooted+ATP tweak (noop, turbo 2, performance):
4750
No root:
In performance mode ~4100
In balanced mode just under 4000
In power save mode ~2200
Interested in others' settings/results.
I never really liked Quadrant, a really piss-poor benchmark.
For a while, I had the highest Quadrant stock clock scores ever for a smartphone on Smartphonebenchmarks.com with my Samsung Epic 4G. I cheated to get the score by using a ramdisk partition hack, and admitted as much on the website in the hopes that Qualcomm would get off their butt and update the app which was built for ARM11 (think the original G1) processors and had some really skewed weighting towards internal memory performance, which is exactly how I managed to get such a high score.
Not long after, the owner of Smartphonebenchmarks.com began working on a benchmark app of his own, Smartbench2010, and then Smartbench2011, which has multicore support. I think he's released a Smartbench2012 but I haven't really played with it. I still believe it to be a better benchmark than Quadrant, update or no.
But it's popular, so nothing will stop people from using it...
I would trade some of the power for a little better WIFI and GPS.
Could someone tell me what atp tweak is. Im only getting 4300+
Here is mine not modified at all on ICS in performance mode:
Picture proof of 4465 score
Quadrent Scores are pretty useless. The can be fooled and should never be used to judge a device. Any developer will tell you that the OS can be modded to give over 9000 bench mark but runs like crap. A search would have shown you this.

Quad core with companion core monitor app

Does anyone know where to get that app that was on the demo TP's? I saw it in one of the review video's, it showed how much load was on each core after the companion core was maxed out...
Cant find one in the market, TY.

You will only get it from nVidia.
Unfortunately, I believe Sontin may be correct. That was an extremely cool application, and anyone who loves the Prime has probably tried to find it at one time or another. I never had any luck, and I am usually pretty good at ferreting out what I want from somewhere or other. That app is not in the wild, as far as I can tell. Shame, since it would be "fun and educational" to play with.
If anyone can prove my statements wrong, I gladly invite you to do so, with a link, of course.
Maybe a Developer could make one?

From what I understand, the companion core is invisible to the Android kernel. Likely NVIDIA had a custom kernel running on their test units and demo units to allow the companion core to be seen by the kernel.
Thus, it's my theory that even if we had that app, we'd need ASUS' test kernel for it to work properly.
I'd definitely love to see this. Even with .14, I'm not convinced we're yet getting the best battery life out of this thing, and I'm wondering if the system isn't dropping down to the companion core as often/as quickly as it should. I'm burning about 15%/hour when browsing, using Greader, that sort of stuff, and around 10%/hour when simply ebook reading using the B&N Nook app (at lowest brightness). I'm thinking we should be seeing better than that.

Cool app, but doesn't seem like it shows the companion core, unless I'm missing something.

I found the video and the link is in the thread... If people can make a cpu monitor that showes a dual core as a quad core because of the multi threading itdoes then someone can dupelicate this this app...

When the first demo`s of the TP went out XDA posted A data dump of one after they rooted it , there should be a copy of that app in that code!
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
Oooh! I'd forgotten all about that...
Yeah, the companion core is supposed to be inaccessible. We'd have to cook up some custom kernels and some other hardcore stuff to even get their app to work I would think.

That was from demo unit at Gamestop. Not a system dump from actual demo device Asus used in videos that showed that. Worth a look though. Let us know if you find something

My max.cpu f after JB is 1.4GHz!!! WTF???

They knocked those speeds out of the new kernel most probably. Even more interesting is that my stock tf use the 1.4ghz on jb. I think only in performance mode

I cant even open EZoverclock on my TFP, it just reboots. Same with ATP Tweaks, every time I try to enable SIO it reboots.
In CPU Spy, 1.5 and 1.6 Ghz modes are no longer visible.
Because we have a new kernel, those apps don't work...
Yeah we got our speed jacked, sucks. Kind of hoping they release an update that has the 1.5 Ghz and 1.6 Ghz speed steppings back so we can OC using something like EZOverclock again. It was nice to have that little extra juice when needed.
Please dont use any more any MOD for prime ICS like build.prop,ezoverclock,ATP_Tweak!! I was open atp tweak and chose sio...after that i brick my prime! I have all time reboot! I needed to go recovery mpd and wipe all Grrrrr..any good think is my ROOT is still here! Asus sucks with new kernel 1.4GHz

If you have problems with reboot loop because of enabling overclock and you have rootkeeper installed then quickly start rootkeeper when the tablet boots and choose unroot and then you can uninstall the overclock. Worked for me
