When a rom says its oc...does that mean it already IS oc'd or that it CAN be oc'd? Take for instance eris lightningbolt rom. It says OC but I'm not sure if that means it already is or that it can be? Trying to figure out if the speed increase of my eris is simply due to the new rom or due to a possible oc? I have NOT installed setcpu yet.
It means it's capable... you need setCPU or Overclock Widget to increase the speed.
Could be over clocked already, but it definitely means that it can be over clocked. Ask the ROM dev in that particular thread to find out. Also, please refrain from posting general questions in the development forum in the future. Can a mod please move this thread?

it means it has a kernel capable of being overclocked as of lately no rom is allowd to be bundled with SetCPU so you won't be able to flash and Oclock it right away you must buy/download from xda the setcpu.apk but most OC'd roms come set to about 710 mhz for stability
Some kernels come custom clocked higher.
Here is the link to setcpu

CELB or Eris lightning bolt which ever you prefer to call it is overclocked to 710 by default and then can be adjusted up or down with setcpu or overclock widget.
I don't like already OC'd roms, Its like yo man, Dont touch my woman! lol jk
Releasing my kernel ver10 which has NO OVERCLOCKING but has Undervolting. I'm pretty happy with the speed of Tegra 2 and I think there are a few advantages in keeping our speed in stock. Advantages IMO are as follows
1. Better Battery life
2. Less heat
3. Stability (unless it is too undervolted)
Update 4/25/11
Releasing PimpMyGtab and My latest kernel ver 11 with no Overclocking, just stock Speeds..Underclock using PimpMyGtab
Here is the link on how to use PimpMyGtab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1018411
** If you get a scaling_governor error upon starting PimpmyGtab. It means you need to set your governor by going to Terminal and typing echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor or by installing CPU Master and choosing powersave in governor.
BIG THANKS TO CPASJUSTE for the app and kernel codes.
BTW, If you like my work, don't hesitate to buy me a beer
If you ike PimpMyGtab, make sure you buy PimpMyCPU (Source) from the market by Cpasjuste
Thanks.
Nice. I'm not a fan of overclocking, however undervolting DOES interest me. As soon as I get an opportunity, I may try this out.
Curious, what's the stock voltage?
OK, LMK how it goes.

Well I tried it out real quick, it works well (haven't verified battery life changes), but I had some questions:
Is there anyway to set the voltages explicitly? SetCPU didn't work with it (couldn't even change the freq or scaling governor).
I forgot your kernel doesn't support mounting the internal SD over USB. Is that something that will be fixed soon (assuming it's actually broken)?
I won't have my tab for a few weeks, sending it in for warranty replacement. So I won't be able to do further testing.
Thanks for the great work!
Hello clemsyn,
Try it out and battery life is soooooo gooood ... lot better than the OC 1.5GHZ one, of cause it run slower, but it's where i came to ask, if you could release one with the same voltage but for 1.2Ghz (which i guess it's stock speed)?
Many thanks for your hard work

OK here it is...this is basically stock voltage with OC to 1.2 ghz.
Thanks. Right now I'm tryingout the 700-900. Quadrant dropped from 2350 to 2150 going from ver9 to the UV.
I've been using the original kernel posted in this thread for a little while now. It has some strange slowdowns when the tablet first boots (from being powered off), but after that it runs great. Have not had any freezes, so it seems stable. Quadrant scores are ~ 2300.

While the quadrant is down a little, I can't really tell any difference in performance when using the tablet. If the battery life improves then I will stick with this one.
sorry if this has been answered before, but the undervolted
kernel still has cifs support?
(just to check, you need clockworkmod to install this, right?)

Hi Captivators!
Let me introduce a tool that helps to improve performance of your phone!
NEED ROOT!
Overclock can be harm to your hardware.
Use at your own risk.
I made a overclocking application for Samsung GalaxyS family.
It's designed to make overclock very easy on stock kernel and custom kernels (almost, not CM7, it has its own way)
Only needs to click 3 times to do it.
I know here is not app category, but based on kernel module.
so I chose "Development" category.
If I'm wrong, please move my thread to correct position.
Working perfectly on GalaxyS Froyo. already proved by many people.
I'm waiting Gingerbread for my phone (SHW-M110S).
App will support Gingerbread after I got it. Hey Samsung, give it to me!!!!
My wish is that all of GalaxyS users install this application on their phone... over 10 million..
But I know. It's just a dream.

1.15 GHz, 1.25 V (stock voltage)
I experienced faster web surfing, more quadrant score, better Linpack result and more..
Hey, who don't want to make phone faster?
You can find a free version app in Android Market.
If you like it you can also buy ultimate version to help me (think as a donation ver)
UV(under voltage) and OV(over voltage) controls are only available at Ultimate version.
Sorry for that but I believe Free version is quite enough for most of you!
@1.43 Ghz, 1.375V + ext4 = quadrant score 2250, and fried my hands
Enjoy your enhanced phone with my application!

I have just read all threads that you told me. Yeah you are right at last comment. My app does not need custom kernel. In addition
no reboot, can change at runtime.
This is a big differrence from another apps.
Thanks for links anyway!

yes this app loads a kernel module much like voodoo control plus does. it adds overclock to any kernel instantly. unfortunately for the developer most of us have a favorite overclock kernel. but this will work for adding overclock to kb1 non overclock kernels that some members prefer to use for call quality reasons, and for people that love the stability of speedmod but want to experiment with faster clock speeds

onix is speedmod with OC/UV
EDIT: im just curious, ive traditionally undervolted my phone to increase battery life, what would be the purpose of increasing the voltage, seems as though it would be counter productive?
Well this is interesting. A good app for anyone who remains on stock and dosent want to load a custom rom but would like a little extra horsepower. The small percentage that people here make up may or may not use it, but to the rest of the world that is on stock, this could be really nice for them.

that is a gross over simplification. i believe onix has a lower kernel hz for battery life and additional patches though i never cared to keep track of specifically what features each kernel has.
also the ulk menu on speedmod actually works on all the options including jfs unlike onix
maybe you will have better luck in the epic and fascinate sections where there is no froyo source code so they have to choose between 2.1 overclocked and 2.2
Any chance to get this on 2.3.3?

Decreasing voltage increases battery life (obviously less juice = lasts longer) but also makes your phone less stable. The inverse holds true to a point. For every phone at every cpu speed, there is a range of voltages where your processor doesn't lock up and die instantaneously. Too much voltage makes it die, too little makes it shut off.
In the range where it works, however, the lower end is better for battery life, but if it's doing something towards the upper end of the freq range, it might still die, but the upper end of the voltage spectrum is pretty much good to go.
cant overclock my cappy at all raise it to 1.2ghz without any voltage change and
it says i need the full version...
whats the point in OC app that you cant use it?
I have a droid incredible htc running skyrider rom, i red that i can make an overcloking for increase the speed, i would like to know what i have to do. How to do it. What i need. I search in you tube but i cant find anything for droid incredible. Thanks...

so there no kernels to help oc, just use setcpu tor similar apps?
on other phones u need kernels to oc. just curious if this phone i different
The default kernel won't overclock, setcpu can perflock the stock HTC Sense based kernel and allow underclocking for better battery preservation.
You can download chad's incredikernel, lou's kernels or ziggy's for Sense-based kernels that can be overclocked.
I don't know about the widget but on setcpu I have mine set to the highest with performence settings.
wao im confused know,do i need a kernel.thanks...
A lot of kernels have oc capabilities, but you still need SetCPU to tell it what speeds to run at and such. CM7 has this functionality built right into the CM Settings.
It will depend on what ROM you're using, and what kernel you're using.

will ziggys chad's incredikernel, lou's kernels or ziggy's kernels work for new sense 2.1 or 2.2?
Depending on what version they are. IDK what version the new kernels are but the sense 1 kernels are 2.6.32-17. IMO overclocking an incredible doesnt offer that much of a performance gain, it can only be bumped up by about 150-200mhz as compared to the other devices which can do 300-700mhz.

All Froyo-based ROMs should be covered by those three kernel builders. Unfortunately those also are about the only active kernel devs that are supporting Sense-based kernels, the majority are AOSP.
Has anyone thought of tweaking with the voltages on the incredible kernels. I also own a Nook Color and they thought 1.1 was the max for us until dal messed with the voltages and a few other things under the hood. If it gets us gains with running features on newer roms (sense 3.0) it might be worth exploring the possibilities.
dont forget my post please. I need more information, thanks..
just curious really as my phone never gets warm or anything running at 768mhz the battery life is also pretty good.
hey,
i don´t think so, because in the worst case your phone will take damage. But this ~770 mhz are about 250 more then before. Im happy with this xDDD
that is true haha, i just dont see it doing much harm if the phone will run stable higher at the same voltage or the tiniest bit higher
No, that's the limit of the MSM7225. (Achieved by adjusting the PLL to its max, any higher will overrun the limits of the chip, and cause it to most likely fail)
i would like to know, if its very bad for the phone, if you let it permanently run with full speed. Ok, if it will get very hot.. thats clear, but is it bad if you have the 77mhz and it is for example in silent mode, or when you listen to some music. Should you ever take some possible speed away, if its not need? (thx)
The hardware life will probably be reduced. By how much, it cannot be said definitively, but, I am pretty sure that by the time the hardware fails because of overclocking, the phone will have been retired long back.
What you are requesting (Dynamically changing speed) is exactly what Speed Governors (Performance, Internative, OnDemand etc) do. If you are on CM7, use Smartass Governor, because it's the "smartest". If not, then use Interactive governor.
i use ginger yoshi... and sometimes it sais that the sd was removed. Could overclock be a reason for this?
I dont think so. I got the same issue once, and formatting the SDCard fixed it.
ok i will try it thanks
