Overclock advise - Vibrant General

Overclock your vibrant phone after rooting it and flashing trigger 2.2?

Did you flash an overclocked kernel?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App

Nope I didn't just root and then put trigger 2.6 that's it nothing else

You have to install a kernel that allows OC in order to do so. Even then you may get problems if you have a Vibrant thats picky about its voltages.

nothing ventured, nothing gained

Just flash one and take it for a spin. See for yourself. I have Axura with Morfic's kernel and its beautiful!
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App

I was reluctant too, flashed the DOW14 and i'm really glad i did.

If you are OK with loss of Battery life over clocking is OK. For me, having a phone that after 24 hr of moderate use I still have 65% battery left is Awesome !!
Giving that that up just to have a higher Linpack or other high benchmark score ...to me is pointless..........

It will kill you phone if you oc high frequency

I flashed the jac overclock, but it seems to freeze from time to time, any help?

Your phone probably can't handle oc. You should try the 1gz kernel instead.
Thanks I will try, I don't really care for the speed but oh well

Exactly. My phone's the same way. If you're looking for speed on 2.1 I'd recommend Z4 mod.

Just flash a froyo, stock kernel and it flies man.
They are daily drivers in my opinion, no real hiccups.

DJ05 causes audio issues?

I just updated to DJ05 and now all of the sudden whenever I play any audio file on my fascinate I get static, it doesn't happen constantly but enough to be annoying. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Try a different kernel.
Mine did that on the jt roms. Doesn't do it with blackhole 2.4

Oh ok, I installed Jt's clean rom and then matted blues over it >.<
I like his rom, but the audio was a deal breaker for me. You can get the new blackhole through rom manager.

This is a very n00b question but.. what does the low voltage/overclocked mean?
I understand that overclocked means that he has done something to improve the speed of the phone but what exactly was changed? Also, I'm assuming the opposite of this, underclocked means that something was toned down a bit to save battery life?
I'm on stupid fast 1.54 not sure why it would do it for me and not you.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Underclocking won't really save as much battery power as undervolting
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
His 12/19 is undervolted and overclocked. 12/20 is just undervolted, but honestly didn't have as good of results

Too bad he is done with the fascinate.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Damn o hadn't heard that . I would say there isn't a lot more that can be done at this point. But that's okay .. since I can't think of anything more I need. Things will pick back up when 2.2 comes. I'm in no hurry.

I'm running v1.98 test as we speak, thought he was still working on this
if so, that stinks. His kernels are the best

Nopee You Just Choose The One You Like....Dead Horse Its One Of The best .. and overstock too
I personally like Overstock with Bionix. I get about what everyone else is getting with this set up, 1700's, for the quadrant. I read too many issues with Deadhorse vs Overstock so I went with it.
FTR, I was keeping up with the different builds right up to maybe the last two so I am NOT saying Deadhorse is bad. Many people have been satisfied with it.
Deadhorse from what I read is a little more customizable than Overstock but when it comes to the kernel I don't like to get that technical. I like mine in "here you go" form.

Quadrant scores does not matter, just an FYI.
I was running Overstock 1.3 and it seemed like my battery life was lower than it should be so I switched to categorically worthless and battery seems better. Could all be in my head tho.

Disadvantages of overclocking and why you shouldn't

1. You could literally burn out your processor making your phone unusable at all (think of RROD for phones)
2. If it crashes while writing sd or nand you could loose data such as apps, texts from your boss, videos of your baby's first steps, pictures of your girlfriend and contacts of coworkers
3. Your phone could become less tolerant of workload and have random reboots even on stock RFS at 1ghz
4. A lot more such as battery overheating and possible exploding
5. IT IS A PHONE WITH NO FANS!
NEVER GO ABOVE 1.3 GHZ OR AT BEST STAY ON 1.0 GHZ (OR 1.2) LIKE SAMSUNG PUTS YOU ON DEFAULT (FOR A REASON)...
Please share your opinion of overclocking but don't be mean to others. There arrested some benefits but I say stay under 1.3

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I have run 1.3 solidly since i rooted, no bad sectors or anything. I do understand there are recommended levels but is there any indicator one can use to notice degradation?
Sectors is the nand memory, not the processor. I am just saying the risks of it. Not saying that you shouldn't, just the risks.

I think it all depends on your surroundings, in a hot car I underclock and it still gets hot, outside or in a cold room I push it to 1.4ghz and it only gets warm. Also overclocking on the charger is probably a bad idea too. Just my 2 cents
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I only overclock occasionally for bragging when a friend gets a fancy new phone or something.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Absolutely agree Marcusant. The only people I see random rebooting after release are OC'ing. My phone is superfast at 1000 Mhz and Legendary plus it barely does 1200 anyway so why blow it up?
Also aren't there galaxy s variants that come overclocked at 1.2ghz? Plus the moment was overclocked too. So I guess samsung is fine with overclocking.

I wasn't suggesting this was gonna get locked - just answering your question about what "L" in IBFL meant ....... I am in agreement about OverClocking ( and UnderVolting ) because some phones ( mine included ) don't handle OC/UV very well

exactly. the infuse uses same chipset but clocked at 1.2ghz factory.
Other than for bragging rights, overclocking a phone(especially on the epic) is almost pointless.
Its not like on a PC where you can overclock a CPU 50-100% of its original clocks to yield performance. A .3ghz overclock really get you nothing in the real world.
A year ago overclocking was marginal at best because no apps were able to utilize our phones processor but now with dual cores all around us it will be the only way we can keep up. Don't believe me? Try playing shadowgun at 1.0ghz

Overclocking the SG3?

I wonder if the samsung galaxy 3 can be overclocked with any kernels. If so, what is the maximum speed that can be achieved. 1.8ghz would be really nice.

This is also how i feel. Also you cant overclock the stock kernel until someone releases a custom one. You could try but it wont stick.

I know what you mean .... I just overclocked it to see what was the max to set .... I think that it can hit easily to 2ghz on the international version .... I don't know about the US version ....
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA
I'm not sure I see a point to overclocking yet
maybe after the phones been out a while and everything settles down we could have a custom kernal that would be easy to under or overvolt
but i really dont think the phone needs it...i'm more looking forward to custom roms like a pretty much pure google ICS or JB rom maybe with some extras added in
Bigger e-penis scores (quadrant) duh

im using aokp rom and ive overclocked mine to 1.7ghz depends on the phone. some phones can go to 1.8ghz if lucky if not then 1.6 ghz, it varies from phone to phone
I'd imagine Quick Clock would work on these. Not my favorite way to overclock, but its easy.
