Nexus S overclocks.

I'm interested to know the overclocks that everyone gets and what kernel/roms they are using.
I'm using Cyanogenmod 7 RC1, Netarchy 1.2.4 CFS. At 1.2 Ghz atm.

Well my signature down below is what im currently using.
I tried to up the speed to 1.3ghz and it worked fine but i had one random reboot, and so i just decided to go back to 1.2ghz.
No problems at all so far.
Edit - its the 1.2.4 cfs version of netarchy by the way!
Sent from my Nexus S (Bionix 1.3 - netarchy kernel 1.2 ghz)

1.3GHz STABLE with CM7 and Netarchy 1.2.4 CFS

CM7 RC1
Netarchy 1.2.3 BFS
1.4 GHZ
Stability? - I'll get back to you on that after a few more days of usage.

its a shame some phone tolerate higher overclocks better than others

It's natural though, it's the same with overclocking pc processors - some handle higher speeds and that's that XD

I'm running CM7 RC1 with Netarchy 1.2.4 CFS
@ 1.2ghz stable, I can't hit anything higher though.

1.3ghz with nightly #1 and netarchy 1.2.4 bfs rock stable

i use a bunch of different kernels, mostly different trinity kernels(released and test kernels) and netarchys kernels. my ns can run stablely at 1.6ghz, and even run 1.7ghz but not very stable. that said, i mostly use 1.2 through 1.5ghz for daily use(almost exclusively with cyanogenmod). 1.6ghz and 1.7ghz i save for benchmarking, they are not that great on battery life as you can imagine

Opinions vary on that. O/C'ing these phones has no real purpose other than as a geek factor. There's nothing I've installed on my phone that pushes the default clock speed on these hummingbirds.
With that said, I can run at 1.3 and remain stable. Just no reason to and the negative potential impact, instability and more importantly accelerating the death of the CPU, presents more reasons not to O/C than there are to do so.
Opinion yes, but if someone has an app they use that doesn't run well at stock, but does when overclocking, I'd love to hear it and try that scenario out.

100% correct.
Developers, give me better apps/games so I can actually use the device's potential. Until then, everyone else can have their wet dreams about getting a dual core phone.

HI, how did u get 'H' to show up, instead of 3g?? Thanks

its weird, before netarchy instituted the safeboot at 1ghz feature in his kernels i would just get boot loops but after boot i can overclock it as i please .
im not really complaining either way i just think its funny

Well put. I overclock my phone just to show off. There is no noticeable change unless you count the number on my setcpu widget

Ditto for me.

do you guys can really confirm that these overcloked devices can make the whole day with standart batteries??because i know mine and i am pretty sure it cant(with me using it at least)...

Is SetCpu still needed?

Many of the newer kernels have builtin scaling, e.g. smartass governor. And some others I've seen mentioned that SetCpu has no impact.
So is it still advised for root users? There's also Overclock Widget which people claim does the same thing (with less options).

ive never used setcpu, it's not needed IMO.

If you are using a kernal with havs, then no its not needed. Im running a stock kernal, and I love setcpu. Give me at least a full day battery, sometimes 2-3 days if im light on the usage. Without it, I cant go more than 8 hours.

What about for overclocking. Using say netarchy's 4.3.2
You still need setcpu right?

I use SetCPU for overclocking and to switch governors only. I don't use any profiles because I use a HAVS kernel that works beautifully.

If you are using cm7, in the cyanogen mod settings there is a area where you can set the CPU and governor.

I am using Netarchy toastmod 4.3.2 havs...
so.. what do you mean.. dont use profiles because of havs....
and is there a way to overclock without setcpu or something similar?

object of debate... mostly used to set profiles. alot of devs will recommend not to if need be in their roms but if used in a rom with scaling script the setcpu tends to override it.

I use SetCPU for one giant reason: Profiles. I don't want my phone overclocking at all when the screen's off, or the battery is super-low. When it's plugged in? Sure.

yeah the only profile I have set is that when my screen is off my phone is only at 245MHz.

I used to think like this until I tried running w/o setCPU for a couple days with cm7 to find out if it made a difference. I'd challenge anyone running cm7 to set your oc + gov in the cm7 settings and disable setCPU for a day; I bet the results would surprise you.

I'll try it.

I really only use it for changing governors and I used to use it for screen-off. However, I realized that if you're running something in the background that needs more than 245 MHz and the screen is off, it'll run slowly (ie fetching album art in "3" [the music player]).
When I'm on Myn's I use Netarchy Toastmod 4.3.2 CFS SBC More Aggressive without SetCPU. I believe it's set to Conservative by default. It runs super smooth. Right now I'm on CM7 RC1 with SavagedZen 0.9 CFS SBC GB without SetCPU, since CM7 has a built in menu for changing governor and CPU min/max.

Well, tried ditching SetCPU, and tbh, didn't see all that much of a battery life change. Some days it was better, most days it was a little worse (by about an hour or so). But because of the profiles and all, I'll be sticking with SetCPU for now.

Awesome flashing right now.
Does the UVing work with MIUI or is the same as with the Escapists kernel?

Works with MIUI, untested on cm7. Problem is with MIUI, the sliders aren't calibrated to the screen right so its tough to slide and get a good voltage.

Ya so same thing with the Escapists deal, Ill test, but happy to see this. Flash went successful.
EDIT: Voodoo Sound doesnt work, and it seems pretty choppy right now at 1.2 OC with MIUI
EDIT 2: OC'ed at 1.4 its flies. But 1.3 it was still choppy. Odd.
And just a request you think you could try Kanging voodoo color from the Escapist's kernel?

For some reason everything is choppy after a boot but before you turn the screen off and on. Also, voodoo sound is 100% there, have you run the app?

ya I have never run my phone at 1.4 but thats the only thing that makes MIUI not really choppy.
But it really has payed off its 100% stable for me and the fastest my phones ever been. Getting about 19.5-20 in Linpack, and just overall the phone flies.
So heres my equation for success:

Absolutely. I don't know when, but it'll be soon.

CM7/miui+talonmtd= dont blink or you might miss the transition

I have a question;
I liked CM7 until the battery drain made it near difficult to use; will using this Talon kernel possibly fix the drain issue? If so, then I'm going to consider switching back.

Can I ask what problems Gingerbread bootloaders cause?

Short answer--No. Long answer, while the kernel can not fix battery life completely, it can do something for it. Your problems won't be completely fixed, but will be somewhat mitigated.

To tell you the truth I'm getting the same battery life I had with Continuum. Some people are still getting drains depending on apps being used and such. There are so many variables to consider that I could tell you. You have to try it out and see how things go. Test different kernel settings in Voltage Control .... and monitor programs used to find what the culprit may be.

It has always been an issue until the latest round of Kernel updates. It mainly effects external SDCARDS but Vivified had a few intermittent issues with seeing the internel SDCard. (He wasn't running this kernel at the time).

[Q] /DigitalKarma v8 REINCARNATION Kernel issue

I want to dump the underworld kernel since my battery just gets sucked to death on this thing. I have tried flashing multiple mason kernels and even old savaged rom and tiamet kernels. none of them work. What am I doing wrong. Is there a specific replacement kernel I am missing for this?

DK8 is a Sense rom. All the kernels you mentioned are for AOSP roms. Thats what is causing your problem. If you want to try a different one, search for Lionfish, Chop Suey or Freedom. These are Sense kernels may work.

Thanks. I wasn't really sure. I see Mason used on so many kernels i pretty much assumed I could use it. I just hope those you mentioned can match mason and the battery life it gives me

I flashed chop suey and currently my phone is stuck on that damn white screen of death as ill call it. just never leaves it. i guess ill reflash the rom and run the script that comes with it and if i dont see an improvement in battery life ill go to another rom

TBH you will not be able to match the battery life from running an AOSP rom on a Sense rom. The closest would be IMO Underworld with some underclocking and undervolting. Setting the brightness to low also helps, but its gonna be a stretch to get the same battery life.

I'm on this Rom right now. My battery life is at least 12 hours . I'm using the Underworld v.8 kernel by Ca1ne. Get a CPU tuner, preferably setCPU from the market or here on xda, and change your governor to Smartass v2 and your min. up to 384 and your max down to around 768 (mine is set to a little above that at 860). Then flash Vipermod and follow the directions for that. Every phone is different, but mine is around 75Mhz undervolted. There is always a way to get better battery life from your phone, from cpu tweaks to apps that turn off 3g or switch from 3g to 2g or 1x.
Just do some Google searches and you can usually find what you're looking for. There's always that handy dandy search bar on xda too.

Make sure that you barely clearing caches before you try flashing new roms. I don't know of you are, but you didn't mention if you did or if you don't clear them before flashing.
Edit: Make sure that you *always* clear caches.
I didn't notice my mistake until now. Auto correct didn't get it right this time.

I switched from the no-havs Underworld to the havs sbc kernel since I was used to undervolting on AOSP roms. I felt like that made a difference in and of itself. One thing to note I believe if you read the Underworld thread, the kernel is set to Smartass V2 by default, however I think it is also overclocked so definitely follow the advice of underclocking and undervolting... When I first flashed the kernel my phone was so hot I didn't want to touch it, but now It's just fine. For values I am using the same CPU min/max posted above, but I undervolted by 50mhz instead of 75(my EVO won't boot if I go do any more than 50).
And finally I ran the V6 SuperCharger script baked into the ROM. Super easy install, just read the screen and have the Supercharger thread open on a PC.
End result? This rom is so fast it almost freaked me out, or at least made me curious as to how I put up with ICS/JB ROMs for so long. Everything is lag free and as long as I have this phone, my phone will be rocking whatever DigitalKarma is cooking up! Good luck!
