Live Overclock Voltages -Community Support

Ezekeel has created the ability for user control of cpu overclock and bus/gpu overclock. He has also made it possible to change the cpu and internal voltages, so that this can be done without sacrificing stability. Several awesome kernel developers have implemented his work. Thanks to all of you.
I have seen kernel development threads degenerate into "help me with my voltages" threads. No more!
Please post:
- Your kernel and version/date.
- Your live_oc value.
- Your dvsarm (cpu voltage) values.
- Your dvsint (internal voltage) values.
You can vote for settings you have found to be stable by thanking that post.

What's a good max arm volt to liveoc 110 on franco's 06
Ill go with stock on the ones I can control with set cpu
Cool update on nstools! Now can adjust voltages,that's why I ask lol...

The above settings seems to be stable on my phone but
may someone please teach me what to do when OC failure?
(I know how to clear CMOS on computers but don't know much on phones)
I use both NSTools and SetCPU to get LiveOC value of 120 and hang, after restart, the NSTools autoload 120 and hang again, it hang before I get access into the NSTools to change the value, what should I do?

I got it solved by a brainless method
1.Flash TEUV kernel which doesn't support liveOC
2.Clear the data of NSTools
3.Back to franco kernel
4.Done
It's useful for those don't know much about command and init.d such as me

It's not strange, you may understand this if you have overclocked your PC.
Different CPUs need different voltages to maintain stability.
You may try this
1275 1200 or even higher
There is no best voltage for every CPUs, you need to find it out yourself.
In my case
1100MHz need 1275mV
1000MHz need 1200mV
880MHz still need 1200mV...
800MHz need 1125mV

I think I am confused with stock voltage for internal voltage...
this one??
Nexus S stock voltages
1000mhz: 1250 mV
800mhz: 1200 mV
400mhz: 1050 mV
200mhz: 950 mV
100mhz: 950 mV
Or this one??
1000mhz : 1100mV
800mhz :1100mV
400mhz :1100mV
200mhz :1100mV
because when change my intenal voltage with stock voltage....immediately hang and after that reboot
100mhz :1000mV

Isn't it 1250 1200 1050 950 950 the arm voltage
Stock int voltages are 1100 1100 1100 1100 1000

With stock int voltages my phone works well

Oh...sorry..because everyone says internal voltage using stock..I thought these value 1250 1200 1050 950 950...sorry..
yes..with 1100 1100 1100 1100 1000...My phone have no problems at all..thanx...

when i change the voltages in terminal emulator:
echo "1250 1200 1000 950 950" > /sys/class/misc/customvoltage/arm_volt
does the voltage change take place instantly or do i need to reboot?

Changes are instant. Rebooting will only reset you to stock values, if you don't have an init.d script for them.
You can check your changes after an echo by typing the following in Terminal:
Code:
cat /sys/class/misc/customvoltage/arm_volt

Ics stable voltages UV/OC

HI
since in ICS firmwares we can talk about different cpu voltages than gb and i think it's a hot subject mostly in kernel threads i believe i can start this thread because many are interested about this. i use speedmod kernel k3-7 and i can use only tegrak overclock ultimate to change voltages. my stable config is:
200 mhz- 825 mv
500 mhz-925 mv
800 mhz-975 mv
1000 mhz-1050 mv
1200 mhz-1150 mv
with this config i get no freeze or sod. so please post your stable config too.
new info:
-seems that i can't go below 925 mv at 500 mhz
-i will see how the battery life will go with these voltages and i will post some pictures because i am interested in undervolting for battery life.
i also saw a post in neak ics kernel where a user had 7 h and 32 minutes display time.

What were your gb values?

Yes, I don't see the values changing with ICS.

I should pay some more time on it... 825mV for 200MHz so amazing

hi
it seems if i go down 925 mV for 500 mhz i got freeze.

hi
theese were my values in gb roms:
1200mhz - 1150mv (stock = 1250mv)
1000mhz - 1050mv (stock = 1150mv)
800mhz - 950mv (stock = 1050mv)
500mhz - 875mv (stock = 975mv)
200mhz - 850mv (stock = 975mv)
and i used phenomenal 4.0 extreme without freeze or sod.
my phone was produced in octomber 2011.

Strange.. Are you sure, that you had set the lowest possible values for GB?
For me, it looks as if I would have to increase the voltages a bit in ICS.
Haven't looked too much into it.. [running CM9 with Siyah rc3.. both beta.. need work]

GB voltage:
1200 MHz - 1150 mv
1000 MHz - 1050 mv
800 MHz - 950 mv
500 MHz - 850 mv
200 MHz - 800 mv
Always stable for me. I always use this voltage settings until I update my phone into ICS.
ICS voltage:
1200 MHz - 1150 mv
1000 MHz - 1050 mv
800 MHz - 950 mv
500 MHz - 925 mv
200 MHz - 800 mv
It seems I can't set the voltage for 500 MHz lower anymore. Otherwise the phone will freeze.

i tryied to go a lil bit under this settings, but then i had some freezes. i think 500 and 800 makes the most problems.

on ics i have to pull up a bit the voltages that were stable for me on gb, but the annoying thing is that i can´t go less than 925mv for 500mhz step, i get freezes and on gb i was on 875

I'm running 200Mhz 775mV stable
800Mhz 925mV
But cant get stable at 1600Mhz, I get freeze on anything between 1325-1500mV
Anyone can?

Well, each phone has different tolerance to Undervolting. I for example can not go lower then these values:
200MHz - 900/925mV
500MHz - 950/975mV
800MHz - 1050mV
1000MHz - 1100-1150mV
1200MHz - 1250mV
If I go lower then 1250mV for 1200MHz, I will get freezes (if not instant then when browsing the net or something heavy). As you can see my values are not so "extreme", other people can undervolt much more.
There has been one succesfull thread of this type from Geko, it's called MagicConifg (if you click on Undervolting in my signature you will be taken there). He tested for months which UV settings would work for 99% of the people. I was one of the few people that couldn't handle his config
Anyway, I don't say that this thread is totally useless. Discussing UV settings can be helpfull for others which are new to Undervolting. But for me the UV settings have stayed the same as on GB, don't know if it's so different UV'ing on GB and on ICS.
As long as people realise: the settings that work for somebody may not work on your own phone! A lot of people in this thread undervolt heavy and there is a big chance your own phone will freeze (and if you set it on boot and can't remove them anymore, that means reflashing your rom...). So be carefull

Best ICS combo for gaming and performance finally found !!

Hello there,
many threads here in General and in QA,are asking about the best ROM,the best Kernel,or the best combo to get the highest performance and a lag free experience,i was also trying of finding the best combination,but i decided to do it the hard way,i started flashing and flashing,tweaking kernel settings trying to achieve the greatest performance.
at the end i achieved a combo that's making my nexus s run super smoothly with full trebuchet animations and good game experience (running N.O.V.A 3 without any lag ) anyway here is what i tried,it's pretty stable with me and offer a great performance (though battery isn't that good well that's the price of performance)

Tip: overclocking with Tegrak Overclock (Ultimate)

Hi,
I have used Tegrak Overclock Ultimate to overclock my Galaxy Note 1 (N7000) at stock kernel. It works with Cyanogenmod11 (Kitkat 4.4.4.). This are my settings:
1748 mhz: 1500 mV - 1300 mV (+200 mV) (stock is 1400 mhz)
1200 mhz: 1100 mV - 1275 mV(-175 mV)
1000 mhz: 1000 mV - 1175 mV (-175 mV)
800 mhz: 950 mV - 1100 mV (-150 mV)
500 mhz: 900 mV - 1000 mV (-100 mV)
200 mhz: 850 mV - 975 mV (-125 mV)
I have also underclocked my GPU, but I don't remember the stock voltages:
267 mhz: 900 mV -
160 mhz: 850 mV -
134 mhz: 850 mV -
I hope this could help you!
