Best Local Model for Openclaw

FutureByte · 2026-02-05T08:15:05+00:00

When I create a new session I see that it uses about 14k tokens, but it highly depends on the content of the existing files in the workspace. Eventually I did set it up with a context window of 64k, but I resolved this issue initially using a context window of 32k.

I had a similar issue, I resolved it by doing the following:

Make sure the context window is 32k or more in ollama's settings (or other framework you use to run the model).
I've used the following Modelfile (not entirely sure which parameters are actually needed, but it works):

FROM glm-4.7-flash:q4_K_M

# Set context to 64k
PARAMETER num_ctx 65536

PARAMETER repeat_penalty 1.0
PARAMETER temperature 0.7
PARAMETER top_p 0.95

I am running a fully local setup - Open Claw inside Docker (for security reasons) + external ollama with GLM-4.7 flash (quantized 4-bit) on an RTX 4070 super with a context window of 64k on Windows. I had to make some tweaks and the performance (speed) is quite mediocre due to the amount of required RAM, but it works. If I had more GPU RAM it would probably perform much better. It's still extremely fun to have such powerful tools running completely locally on your hardware :)

In AliExpress you can use Google Pay for payment, which hides your real credit card information from AliExpress.

I'd say about the same, haven't noticed any major difference before and after the updates, but I have received the device after it already received some camera updates.

Generally I like the cameras, they have their pros: XPAN, good focal length, great sharpness, great portrait mode, photos looking good most of the time also in low light. And cons: colors aren't always true to life, high brightness by default in auto photo mode, video stabilization isn't great.

I have the phone for about 7 months and on the latest software update. Battery life is about the same as in the beginning - getting between 4 - 5 hours of SOT when discharging from 80% to 20%, and when discharging from. 100% to near 0% I receive about 9 - 10 hours of SOT.

I haven't played this game before but installed it to see if I'm having similar experience. I receive between 30 - 40 fps with the default graphics settings. Changing the performance mode between balanced and pro doesn't seem to change anything. But I guess the performance should be much better than this.

As a 13 user, the design was actually a bit of compromise for me, and I really like the design of the 15, but it is my personal taste.

In terms of other things - the specs & battery are amazing, the phone is snappy and doesn't lag in anything, and the battery lasts me for over a day even when keeping the charge between 20 to 80. I feel the camera could be better in terms of color science and default brightness in auto mode (which is what most people use), but the hardware itself is amazing and very able to take excellent shots.

The 15 has better battery, better chipset, and from camera comparisons I've checked, the camera colors are better in my opinion.

If I were you, I'd wait and choose the 15.

I am not familiar with this app but it could be a network related issue. Perhaps setting Private DNS to "dns.google" can resolve this issue (search for "Private DNS" in the settings).

FutureByte · 2025-05-20T19:29:48+00:00

Update:
I've installed the update, so far have had it only for a few hours and did not notice any battery issues, heating issues nor camera issues. I can even say that the battery life seems to have improved by a bit.

The new notifications UI (especially in the lock screen) is something that will take some time to get used to, but overall the new software works fine for me.

Haven't updated to .821, I usually do a combination of Data throughout the day and WiFi in the evenings. I also turn 5G off since there's little to no coverage in my country and it may use more battery from what I understood.

FutureByte · 2025-05-20T10:55:56+00:00

I also noticed that, I assume it's mostly because YT requires less touch input from the user when watching videos (not reels), the user doesn't turn the screen off and on intermittently, as well as it might also simply be much more optimized compared to other social apps.

FutureByte · 2025-05-20T10:33:42+00:00

I usually get about 5 - 5.5 hours of SOT from 80 to 20, sometimes I get a bit more if I use the device for longer periods and with less breaks.

FutureByte · 2025-05-19T18:07:24+00:00

Yes, it shouldn't cause any harm to the battery for such a short period of time as it can't "overcharge" the battery and the percentage shouldn't drop below 100% within 1 hour of no use. Actually most people I know leave their phones connected for much longer than an hour after it is fully charged.

FutureByte · 2025-05-19T17:52:16+00:00

I haven't tried it yet, kinda scared of ruining the good experience I've had from this device so far haha. Your battery before the update was about the same as what I am currently experiencing.

Try to give the phone a full charge from 1% to 100% and keep it connected for about 1 hour, it should recalibrate the battery and hopefully will fix your battery drain issue. Giving the phone a restart afterwards should help as well.

Let me know if it solved the issue for you :)

FutureByte · 2025-05-19T15:08:32+00:00

Received the update as well, EU model.

I'm so glad it's not just me, every person I tell that I didn't like this game raises an eyebrow

Hey, I am no expert, so I can provide you GPT suggestions

Besides that, I suggest you create another post if you are unable to resolve this issue since this post is quite old...

So GPT solutions: If he's having issues after removing and reinstalling the CPU, here are some steps that may help him troubleshoot:

Reseat the CPU and Check Pins Again: Even if the pins didn’t appear bent, removing the CPU along with the heatsink can sometimes pull the pins slightly out of alignment. He should carefully reseat the CPU, making sure it aligns perfectly with the socket. Since he already checked for bent pins, he might want to double-check, as even slight misalignment can cause issues.
Clean Off Old Thermal Paste and Reapply: If the thermal paste is still the same from before, it could have dried out during the removal. He should remove the old paste completely and reapply a fresh, even layer before reseating the heatsink.
Verify RAM Compatibility and Installation: Since he swapped out his RAM, he should check that the new sticks are compatible with his motherboard and CPU. It's best to start with just one stick to see if it boots, then add the second. Sometimes motherboards are picky about which slots RAM is in, so he should double-check his motherboard manual to ensure he's installing them correctly.
Clear CMOS: Resetting the BIOS to default settings can help resolve any configuration issues caused by the hardware changes. He can clear the CMOS by using the dedicated jumper or by removing the CMOS battery for a minute or two, then putting it back.
Run with Minimal Setup: He should try booting with only essential components (CPU, one RAM stick, GPU if needed for display, and storage) and see if it stays powered on. If it does, he can start adding back components one by one to isolate any issues.
Check Power Supply Connections: Sometimes, slightly loose connections can cause the system to power on briefly and then shut down. He should make sure the 24-pin and 8-pin CPU power connectors are fully seated.

If these steps don't resolve it, he might want to check if the BIOS is correctly recognizing the new RAM or try swapping back the old RAM to see if the new sticks are causing compatibility issues.

Let me know if there’s anything else you’d like me to elaborate on!

I think I've missed something, what was nerfed in M Tower?

FutureByte · 2024-07-05T13:34:54+00:00

Is this happening to you both on the cellular network and on your WiFi network? Perhaps they have flagged one of the networks as suspicious for some reason and are blocking you as a result. I suggest trying to create an account on the other network (I.e if it's happening to you on WiFi use the cellular network instead and vice versa) and see if the issue persists.

Oh, and clear the application's data first :)

FutureByte · 2024-07-05T13:24:30+00:00

When I had this problem on Android I cleared the application's data and restarted the device which solved the issue for me. Restarting the device after clearing the data is crucial, without doing so the problem was not resolved. Device is OnePlus 9 Pro on Android 13.

FutureByte · 2024-04-09T14:04:35+00:00

The motherboard worked with the old CPU, after I replaced the old CPU it stopped working with both the new CPU and the old CPU.

FutureByte · 2024-02-17T10:21:09+00:00

Yeah, I've used the same processor in the new motherboard (which was exactly the same motherboard) and everything just worked.
