This is not meant to be a slam against the new blog, but what happened to the wealth of info in the old forum? Is it still accessible? Am I just missing the power of the “blog”? I can’t find any info here?!?!? Please help!

Hello,
The weblog is the modern alternative to the forum. We decided to siwtch to a weblog because of the large amount of spam we had to deal with. Of course we will take into account the opinion of our users and will post a poll shortly to determine whether to get the forums back or not.

I sincerely hope that PHM5 will be useful and stable.  PHM4 is neither stable (locks the machine frequently) nor useful (I did not perceive any measurable extension of battery life - but due to the “locking” I did not get enough experience).

Hi Julian,
We are working on some new features that we believe will greatly increase the stability of the new version. You are correct about battery life - the main issue all current overclockers have is the constant “battle” between the overclocker and the OS power manager. PHM5 will try to overcome this issue as well but it is too early to reveal more details.

Best regards,
Anton Tomov

How does one become a beta tester for PHM5?

Hello William,
You will be able to apply for beta testing from your control panel as soon as we announce the beta testing schedule. Thanks!

Anton, as always, I am available to beta test. We have 2 different devices with different processors here at work to test PHM 5 on, so let me know when the beta product is ready to try.

Dear Anton,
I tested the current version (v4.14.033) and found a strange problem.
Until I did not set any speed configuration, it is working fine - I assume.
The only strange is in Speed Monitor Pane:
- HCLK: usually 67MHz, sometimes switches for half a second 133 MHz,
- PCLK: 50-50% 33MHz or 67MHz “randomly”, rarely for half a second 133 MHz,
- Batt: xx% (0mA)
- the others are OK.

When I make a speed test, for 400MHz (HCLK 67MHz, PCLK 33MHz, others NC, N/A), the light of the touchscreen flashes totally randomly, looks like a bad electric connection. The touchscreen itself misaligned greatly (2 cm distance was between tap and “circle of dots”.
If I close the program everything goes back to normal, except light. Sometimes the brightest and darkest (slide in the original WM5 tool) are far away from the original values (I assume we could change the min max...).
Sounds cannot be heard.
When I switch off and on, brightness goes back to normal, and slide min-max is also same as the original.
The sound also back to normal.
My device’s data:
- Device name: Mio P550m
- Processor: Samsung S3C2440A 400MHz
- OP system: Windows Mobile 5.0 OS 5.1.195 (build 14929.2.2.1)

Ps: If I tick the “Disable device built-in scaling” in Edit/Setting/Advanced, it is working better (no flicks and no xCLK sudden changes) but Batt: xx% is always “0mA” and sound is gone....

Once again support for the qualicom chips in my htc touch (vouge) is what I’m looking for. Any ability to unlock other features for the chipset is a dream of mine although It sounds more like a job for an overhaul of the drivers (Sorta deviated from the purpose of this program and not an easy task).

Are you to FULLY automate the speed configuration? Please allow a user defined option.

I am quite happy to hear about the separation of the OC kernel and UI. I hate running Apps in the background as they take up resources and it really begins to add up and slow things down.  If we could have as little running as possible when I’m not adjusting the settings or veiwing stats on the GUI.

Thanks again keep me posted via rss.

We are going to make the configuration much easier and automate as much as possible (based on specific device profiles) but we will still keep the user defined option for advanced users.

Thank you I cant wait, these htc touches (vougue) seem to over clock really high (640) without overheating, but I really want an efficient program with the ability to downscale the cpu. Oh don’t take too long getting this one out.

hi Anton! I would like that in PHM v5 there was a support of the processor samsung SC32442X namely i-mate JAMA. Whether it is possible?

fuzzydeer,
I was just curious as to what program you are using that can overclock the cpu’s in the vogue?  I was unaware that there were any programs that had the ability to do that.
Thanks, Jim.
