Freebird - Switch Clock Speed Control Sysmodule

This is a sysmodule/service for Atmosphere and ReiNX that uses IPC's to communicate with its companion NRO, Freeset. This allows you to use any clock speed I've found on the Switch. The only restriction I have put in place is that you must be plugged into an official charger or docked if you are crazy enough to want to use the highest two GPU clock speeds. I am leaving it completely up to you to choose what clock speeds you want to use. Be careful.

Intructions:
  • Atmosphere: Copy over the contents of the zip and reboot your system to load the module. Open Freeset and use that to send over the clock speeds you want.
  • ReiNX: Create a folder in your ReiNX folder named titles if there isn't one. Copy the titles folder from the atmosphere folder to ReiNX/titles. Open "010000000000C235" and move the boot2.flag to the same directory as the exefs.nsp file. Reboot and freebird should now be working on ReiNX.

X turns freebird's clock setting feature on and off. Remember to turn this off before putting your system to sleep. I'm working on it™, but it will cause and require you to fully shutdown and restart your Switch if accidentally left on. When on, freebird will check and set the clocks if they don't match what you choose. When turned off, your clock speeds will be reset and no longer forced.

A sends over the clock speeds shown/chosen from the menu. Up and down change the currently selected option, left and right change speed.

If I missed anything, don't be afraid to ask. I'm open to suggestions too.

I'd like to thank @taggen86, @nabelo, @mathew77, @vanraz86, and @Kirby567fan for taking the chances and testing it. Thanks guys!

Could someone tell me the stock docked and undocked speeds? I checked and see that some sites say Memory is like 1331/1600 or something like that so idk what the stock settings really are.
Undocked 1020MHz 307.2MHz 1331/1600MHz
Docked 1020MHz 307.2/768MHz 1331/1600MHz
is this it?

docked is gpu 768 and mem 1600

undocked, gpu can go from 307 to 460 (mario odyssey use 460), mem stays at 1331

cpu is fixed @ 1020 for both docked and undocked

On 6.2.0 and ams 8.6 it gives black screen any reason why ive added the ams required files but same thing
That means when Freeset tries to get the freebird service handle, it's not finding it. So, the module itself is not starting. It should fatal if something happens at boot though. I'm not having the issue on 7.0.1 and AMS 0.8.6. Just to be 100% sure we're all on the same page with this, I uploaded the current version I'm using for everyone. I don't want to guess what could be going wrong with a version I don't have the code readily available for anymore.

Tried to use this for the first time and I'm just getting a black screen when launching freeset.nro. OFW 5.1, Atmosphere 0.8.6. It doesn't crash, I can hit the Home button to return to the home screen.

It seems a bunch of people use this but noone shares which stats (cpu, gpu, mem) they use for games both on dock and handheld. This kind of information would be helpful. But noone here eagers to help.

I know several pages ago @AliciaBurrito posted a bunch of information

people usually say "thank you man, this app is so good" and that's all. but what did you do to make it good? why don't you share your settings and try help everyone else? if not bother to share, what is the reason of this forum? just downloading other's works and not helping anybody else, living like a parasite?

I just max it out when I'm running overclocking, docked or handheld, charger or not. I also did a thermal mod replacement

I don't even use my switch most of the time because I'm going between system versions and cfw helping people and testing stuff.

I don't know how many countless payloads I've swapped booting for. I don't know how many times I've restored my nand backup. I'm also working on a way to try and fix pikabricked consoles, but that is easier said than done

There’s a channel on RetroNX that has a ton of underclock and overclock settings for various games

I haven’t even touched Horizon for the past ~5 days, but have still injected payloads like 10-20 times per day

Does freebird support single game configuration like sys-clk?
Also is there anyway to totally disable it during menu?

why do you want an inferior feature like single game configuration? you should use the beggar's app if you want that inferior feature so bad.
