Antutu Scored a 293K and thought no-way... noticed CPU running at the factory (Qualcomm) clocked 2.8GHz not the previously Pie Clock of 2.5GHz.
So that's why it feels faster...

Yep, CPU-Z shows 2.8 Ghz clock!

Nice. Any change in battery life?
I wasn't getting stellar battery life before but I picked up at least four more hours of standby and a 24-hour period. to be conservative, I believe I picked up 8 to 12% better battery life over pie.
Mine is a little worst. It's around 15% at the end of the day while ita was around 22% with Pie.

I thought this was changed with the March security update for Pie as well
Android P March is indeed 2.8GHz as well.

First, you crack the bootloader.
When you've done that, I'm guessing you allready figured out how to OC the CPU

For now just use the overclock widget. set top two settings as high as you want up to 998 click on off screen frequency. set between 246 and next number you choose. set at boot save. define settings at what mhz you like and experiment. do not run on screen and off screen freq at max. i have had my battery sweating and even plugged in all day and not gained a single % of charge. until boot loader is cracked.... this is all you can do.

Although it's impossible today because of bootloader, note it's always dangerous and not great to overclock embedded cpus.
You can't overclock a lot, as you have a battery (X10 works about 5-10 hours with full speed - 998MHz), and the CPU only has passive elements to cool. Overclock can damage your CPU and your motherboard, stress all elements and low your battery life (battery charge and cycle of charge). (Even there's a self shutdown when too hot)
You can get an idea of overclock on Nexus forum, as we have the same CPU (Snapdragon 8250) - I saw overclock up to 1300 MHz, but it's really not looking safe to me
Thanx everyone..

Depends also on the voltage (as long as your voltage isn't increasing as you overclock, it isn't really that harmful as long as you watch the heat), and what you have your underclock speed set to with screen off (as this can in some sense reverse some of the possible "damage")...
I had my htc hero overclocked to 710 with the screen on, and underclocked 176 with the screen off and it ran a lot better.
I digress, I see no purpose in doing so when you already have a 1ghz processor that is super fast. I only really see a point in overclocking if the possible benefit is greater than the possible harm, and in this circumstance, I really don't think you would see that much benefit.

I have seen considearable difference when maxed out. however the dangers are high of overheat. ive done it once and onetime only. kept on and off screen at 998 and hat it plugged in all day with out a single gain of battery. it was like on life support and was hot enough the phone was sweating even when sitting next to a fan blowing on it constantly.:-( since then i have made adjustments to run between 700 and 998mhz on screen and min 246 and 400mhz when screen off.
if looking for better performance without the overclock and good drain of battery, download and install sysctl from market and follow settings below.

Not in all instances. Depends on the quality of the chip. Lot of chips are capable of handling higher speeds and temps but are set lower quality assurance.
For instance, I've got a NookColor that has base CPU set at 800MHz and is now overclockable to 1.2GHz
We'll have to do stress tests on some to see what they're capable of.

Agreed.
My Motorola Defy has a Omap3630 that comes at 800MHz,stock but can be easily overclocked to 1.3GHz without a sweat.
Just depends on the chip's capacity of "Stress".

I flashed the cm7 1.4 240-325-300 Kernel.
In my settings what should I keep my min and max at for all time usage?
I max them and my quad score is like 5501
don't know if your supposed to keep those certain.
Also does decrease or increase battery life.
I left mine at the default values. Was wondering this myself though. How do you test quad scores?

You want the lowest value to be at the lowest(216 i think) because this allows the processor to idle at that low speed, if you keep the minimum speed at 1ghz your processor will ALWAYS be running 1ghz at the lowest, and that will be an obvious way to kill your battery in no time. So set that to the lowest, and for the maximum i personally run mine at 750 for CM9, think i had it at 800 for CM7 but cannot remember for sure. This is limiting how fast the processor can run so the lower the better as far as battery goes. It comes down to you personally, if you game and do processor heavy tasks often then having the processor underclocked like i run mine will affect your gaming/app/overall experience. Its always like 2 clicks away to bump it up to a higher speed and i have a link on my home screen so if i do decide to do anything processor heavy i can bump it up quickly. But in general it takes more power for your processor to run higher so if your really concerned about battery life try bringing it down. I can still score a solid 1,500+(with a bunch of crap installed on my Photon mind you) on CM9 with my max at 750 and min and 216. Benchmarks are honestly just a number, it comes down to how if performs for you and what you are doing with your phone.
Awesome, I'm lowering it now and battery is dropping slow so its good, thanks for the detailed reply.

Just picked up an XT1527 (full package, box, accessories, everything) from a craigslist seller for $40 - I figured it would give me something to play with until Motorola ships my "free" Moto X (32GB 2013 model) as a replacement exchange for my old Atrix HD which bricked when I installed the last update for it. For the record, this is the Cricket model.
Upon playing around with it for the past few hours, however, I've noted it tends to run just a bit warm even when I'm not really doing much of anything so I started checking into it - I'm still pure stock, mind you, 5.0.2 build LXI22.50-13.4) and I'm thinking about rooting it and perhaps checking out the CM12.1 build but there's no hurry at the moment.
Having said all that, I grabbed CPU-Z and took a peek at the SoC specs: it shows an idle speed of 800 MHz for all four of the cores even in spite of them having a 200 to 1.2 GHz range. One would think that the device would ramp down to 200 MHz when idle and not doing much of anything at all but, that's not the case so far.
So I grabbed System Monitor Lite to check just in case CPU-Z was reading things incorrectly and got the same exact results. Upon checking the pie graph it clearly shows a range of 800 MHz to 1.2 GHz and nothing below it.
Has anyone else noted this issue with the Moto E 2015 model or... am I just so new with this thing (having owned oh, maybe 200 other devices in the past decade and doing some rather intensive customizations on 'em) that I'm missing something here and just not even noticing it?
Had hoped to keep this device relatively clean and stock but, it appears that's not practical if this CPU speed situation can't be resolved. I see there's basically only the one custom kernel available so far (Squid) and while I'm not opposed to using it once rooted/etc I'm still curious as to know why this thing isn't ramping down the clock as it should. It's using the default interactive governor as well, would be nice to be able to alter that but again that's where it gets more complicated.
Anyone else noted this on their XT1527 (or any of them, really, just as long as it's a 2015 model) or would someone else that's running pure stock be willing to check their CPU usage with CPU-Z or System Monitor or something else and see if it's not ramping down below 800 MHz as it actually should? Obviously the battery life would dramatically improve if this thing would slow down as it should - there could be some new Qualcomm trickery at work here that I'm not aware of, but if it's capable of dropping back to 200 MHz, it damned well better.
Any comments and suggestions are appreciated...
ps
Also I've noted the GPU doesn't ramp down to 200 MHz as it should either, it hovers at 310 MHz almost constantly which again is just another waste of battery when staring at a static image on the screen (save for the info updates themselves but that's not really a thing that should or would trigger a big spike in GPU speed).
o.o thank you so much. You'd wonder why. Well, yesterday (I think) I made a topic about how my phone drains battery abnormally and I just checked with the app you said (cpu-z) and it seems I have the same problem. My phone feels warm almost all the time and it also keeps working up to 800 MHz in all cores. Also, I own the same model and someone in the other topic told me that battery should last 2 or 3 days without doing something. Oh anyway, thanks because now I have a hint about what's going on. Maybe its a manufacturer problem.
For some reason, Motorola set the CPU idle speed to 800 MHz. I don't know why. I lowered the idle speed to 400 MHz on my phone, and I'm not noticing any performance degradation. I haven't noticed any heat or battery issues though. My phone stays fairly cool, even under heavy load (like running benchmarks repeatedly). I've undervolted my phone slightly, that may reduce heat a bit, though I don't recall having any heat issues without the undervolt either.
Well squid, I'm guessing you are using a pretty customized setup at the moment including the kernel you've created so, I'll most likely end up getting a similar situation I suppose. Since the Snapdragon 410 can do 200 MHz to 1.2 GHz it damned well better do it; if Motorola for some reason chose to "hard lock" it at an 800 MHz idle speed that's a bit ridiculous and will only serve to hamper battery life overall.
Performance isn't the issue here since as soon as some CPU power is required it'll ramp up as expected - the issue here is the 800 MHz "bottom" which should actually be 200 MHz. That's a big difference in terms of overall battery life in the long run.
I owned an LG Tribute in late 2014 and was regularly getting 8+ hours of SOT with that which is powered by a Snapdragon 400 (1.2 GHz quad core) and that has a 2100 mAh hour battery - the Snapdragon 410 in this Moto E should be better for battery efficiency + we've got a 2390 mAh in it so, as long as it's ramping down to the 200 MHz "bottom" that it actually should be hitting then I, for all intents and purposes, should be able to expect or even exceed that 8+ hours of SOT without issues. The Tribute has an 800x480 panel in it, the E has the 960x540 so in the long run that increase in pixels should be covered by the increase in battery amperage (290 mAh more).
This Moto E 2nd gen model should be able to do 7 hours of SOT without breaking a sweat, even with cellular/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/location services on and functional.
At least that's my goal with it... I'm on my first full charge since I bought it earlier today and currently at 58% with 3.5 hours of SOT and that's using Wi-Fi a lot with video playback as well. I've been keeping on top of the Baltimore riots that are happening presently and monitoring things using Scanner Radio Pro as well as a lot of surfing for info and news too. So far so good on the battery life, but obviously it can be much better as long as that CPU speed can be brought under better control.
I got my OPX yesterday, and I love it. Battery life is good, I have SOT of 3 hours and still 43% left.
However, when playing light games, it reaches 60°C very quickly. For example Minecraft PE with low render distance.
My GPU is underclocked to max 330mhz, my CPU is not underclocked but undervolted (-75mv). Using blu.spark kernel on Oxygen 2.2.1.
The battery is draining a lot faster when playing as well.
Is this normal?
Edit: It's much better with CPU limited to 1.2GHz. But a bit laggy.
With 1.2GHz is only goes up to 49°C.
I would manually set voltages until they're the lowest you can go. I've never had mine heat up and I run emulators. You should be able to bring your max clock speed to around 980mv or so which for me has never produced heat. I have my phone over clocked to 2.57ghz and I've never had any problems with heat.

If you ever decide to switch to Boeffla I have a profile called Swell that I work on and have published. Haven't used Blu Spark since I started using Boeffla when it was released
Hai, i have updated th phone to miui 12 about 2-3 weeks ago. Now, the maximum speed is only 2649Mhz. While previously, it was 2800 Mhz. I have confirmed with antutu, cpuz and cpu throttling. Benchmarking also got reduced after update.

It doesn't always stays at 2.8ghz. It may vary according to workload, temps, etc. It is normal. Kernel downclocks big cores to save power. Every time you perform a benchmark it's never going to give the same value. Sometimes it may be higher or lower. Reboot your phone every time you perform benchmarks. And try to replicate the same external conditions as they can affect the end result. So there are various factors.
Ok, but antutu shows the maximum speed of my phone as 2649mhz. I am attaching the screenshot. It reaches 2649 mhz certain times. But didnt cross that barrier after the update. Previously, cpu speed goes to 2.8 ghz and even stay there for a while during gaming and other intense tasks
Use over clock kernel
I noticed after updating to MIUI 12 that Geekbench score is lower especially in multicore (1300 point) while in Crdroid I got over 2000 point
i got an average of 1200 on multi core after miui 12 update. before update, the score varies between 1500 and 1900. I think, Xiaomi had underclocked the processor in miui 12. i don't think it's for increasing battery duration as after the update, the duration reduced significantly.
I have one more doubt regarding floating windows. i can only use one app at a time as floating window. I think it would be better if you could use more (we have 4 corners!)
Well, every update is not good for phone's performance.
Even in MIUI 11 i got better performance.
Currently I am running MIUI 9.6.25 android 8 and here is a geekbench result that I conducted a few minutes before -
https://photos.app.goo.gl/9k2ak36EH8uQsNJ29
I did this test on stock ROM and stock kernel.
And CPU and GPU were also on stock frequencies.
So it is sure that there is a performance degradation in the updates.
