1200 mhz on galaxy s. Safe?

Im wondering if anybody can attest to the stability and reliability as well as safety concerns with running a galaxy s phonew at 1200 mhz. I see a lot oflash kernels boasting this overclock. Thanks in advance

Flash and find out. If it doesn't freeze, your good. Some phones can't handle the oc. There's really no grey area, it will either be stable, or it won't. 1.2 is the standard, and is probably the safest. I'm at 1.48 and stable.

I'm mainly concerned for overheating as I've cooked a couple pc processors

Use setCPU and set up a temperature profile. I have mine set so when the phone hits 120 F, the processor scales down to stock clock speed and cools off.

Bullet[EDT]

U will not have any heat issues unless ur charging ur phone. When u charge a galaxy s phone ur gets very warm including in stock speeds

Definitely. The Infuse 4G has the same hummingbird chip overclocked to 1.2 ghz by default, so it should run with no issues. I can doing 1.3 ghz with no problem. Can't hit 1.4 though.
Sucks since my last phone could handle 1.6 ghz (through a custom 1.6 ghz DOW kernel, thanks Morific!).

It is safe but you lose battery life so that didn't work for me but it is safe and no overheating issues

Dunno what Kernel i used but it was by Morific, and was discontinued for being unstable, but my phone has been able to go up to 1.4, they tried a 1.6 but was far too unstable or something.

I think the Manhattan project messes with the environmental properties of the phone or something.

Yes, the Manhattan project was a dud since it never really overclocked the device. In fact it only slowed it down.
But I requested a 1.6 ghz version of the DOW kernel from Morific, just for fun. Surprisingly it worked well with my old device.

That depends on the phone a lot. I know lots of people who use 1200 but I did with Overstock and Tigers Blood and my phone would freeze. Also use set cpu for the same side to keep an eye on temp.

I've had no problems oc'in, but it really does depend on your chip. Been running mine at 1420 for a week, super stable never gone above 29c under load. IMO, just have to give it a shot and see how stable it is for you.

I'm using Bullet and have been getting great battery life even with it fully OC'd. About 20-25 hrs with moderate use.

Can I get a link to Bullet? I've never seen it.

You need that kernel cleaning script. I don't know if I'm allow to post the file here, and I'm bot sure what post it is again. I can tell you the file name is
ultimate_kernel_cleaning_script_v2_by_lippol94.zip
Hope it helps.

Thanks man. I'm back to norm

FYI, the next version of glitch is possibly going to have a modified recovery that will have options to clear voltage settings and things to save us from problems like this

Do you know when it's coming out?

V12 is out and does have the new recovery...
Some have been having issues with lag using the default deadline scheduler. CFQ has been great for me, I just change it on a reboot for the time being, have not gotten around to using the script that will allow the change to stock but it's out there...

Question:
Does Glitch kill the battery? I lowered VC to the minimum. When I first rooted and used the other kernel, I got excellent battery life. Now, TERRIBLE.
I did flash Glitch V12.

give it acouple charge cycles to recalibrate. Oh and I would wipe battery stats in cwm aswell.

(solved)Huge battery drain by 2g data connection

When i switch data connection on then after 10min. Cell directly switch off.im using destiny 2.0rom with g3mod 1.8performance kernel.it is battery problem or kernel????or its time to buy new battery??? plz help me.....
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda premium

you should try calibrating your battery, you can use "Battery calibrator" app (available on market). You have to charge your battery to 100% and then calibrate using the app, you should do this each time you flash a new ROM.

With data connection on it can use a lot of power using froyo based roms (not by all) indicating by a temperature rise. I am afraid calibrating won't help on this.

yes, you have to buy new battery

Now problem solved by changing the kernel.

It's not any kind of problem. I was facing the same and its normal. From 0-99% it would just take about 15 mins (or more), but in reality it hasn't really charged till 99.
Obviously no battery would charge soooo fast!
I believe that its due to that 1% battery mod.

cm7 help

haj everyone.. i need help.. maybe there is some similar theme but i havent noticed it.
so the problem is that my phone reboots..by itself.. and than the app dissapear..and i have to reboot it again and they are back. phone is running latest cm7 stable. i instaled it 4 days ago..an every evening reboots. anyone knows what to do?
and thaanks a loot for help.

I did not understand what you are trying to ask.Which app disappears???

what to do that phone wont reboot anymore? ..because it was rebooting by itseelf..but before this didnt happened and i was using cm7 nightly. so i instaled it back today.. and i will see if still reboots.

what app were you talking about??

did you try to flash something before this problem started??

app which are instaled on sd were disappear when the phone was rebooting.. but i didnt reboot it.. it was rebooting by itself..every evening.. but today in the morning too. i dont know ehy..i havent do anythnig on phone.. when i see the cm logo ..(so he was booting on) and sim pin..so on. but then i had to reboot it again that app were back.

Is it overclocked, if yes turn it down a bit.
Also I had a rebooting problem twice on cm7, first time the only way I could fix it was going back to stock and the second time I narrowed it down to a rogue animation, not sure which animation it was though. Turning off all screen animations fixed that one.

You shouldn't be keeping it at 614 all the time. Use SetCPU to reduce the clock speed when the screen is off.

ok..thanks.. right now is set back like it was.. i will see if problems come back again.

when you OC make sure that You put the minimum low so that the phone can be more stable.
