Hi there,
I want to restore to the stock voltages via setcpu but I don't want to flash the stock rom again. Could anyone help me out and post the stock voltages? Especially the Max value because I don't want to overclock...
thanks, onyxogen

First, I would acknowledge the great work HCDR has done !
With that done, I would like to resolve some of my doubts.
I just flashed CM7 and then 4.1 kernel of HCDR.Jacob.
SetCPU allows me to set max CPU speed of 768.. I keep it at 691 with on-demand scaling, but it automatically reverts back to 591 over a period of time.
Can anyone tell me why this happens ?!
Also, any insight on how this modes work would be appreciated.
If I want to manually want to force my phone to operate at a certain speed, how do I do that ?
Thanks,
P
If u are using CM7 why are using SetCPU?
CM7 has it's own OC settings features.. settings>> cyanogenmod settings>>>performance>>>cpu settings

Why are you flashing HCDR kernel? It's not necessary to do that anymore in CM7.

Thanks. I did not know that.
Is there anyway, I can revert back to original CM7 kernel. Coz I already flashed that kernel. Does it even make a difference ?!
One more thing, what CPU governor should be chosen ?!
I would want my phone to be auto-OCed when I play games but DCed when idle.
Would "on-demand" be a good choice ?! Or "smartass" is better ?

In CM7 RC2 this option is not available. This is why i using setCPU app too.
Hey,
I see a lot of people using CM7 is this really the best one?
Also till how many mhz I can overclock on that one?
Yes Cm7 IS really great, in fact you can customize almost everything, and I really like that feature...
As for overclocking you can overclock I think to max of 768mhz(if I'm wrong somebody please correct me)...maybe you can a little bit more but I think it is kernel related...
Hope it helps,
Best regards

Irrespective of which ROM you choose, it is the kernel which allows (or disallows) you from Overclocking. Till date, there are 2 primary kernels which are available - HCDR.Kernel by Jacob and nFinity by arco, and both OC support upto 768MHz. (I think Deep-Knight has recently developed a new kernel for his ROM, which allows OC upto 600MHz)
Because of this, you can overclock your stock ROM also, if you so wish, by simply flashing a custom kernel.

Hi!
Which kernels can I use for original rom, if I want to overclock? HCDR, or Deep, or what? It will make the phone instable, or not?
Thank You!

You can use any. nFinity MC4 offers more features though, like Smartass Governor. It can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995301
Else, you can use HCDR Kernel also, if you wish, and decide for yourself which suits you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798471
It shouldn't make the phone unstable at all. But, in any case, make a Nandroid Backup beforehand.
Thank You
Well M using hell fire .. Cm7 based ....
Which is stable till 729 Mhz overclock m using max 729 and min 490 (I guess)
Phone is Much faster than before and love playing angry birds
I read all the 2 posts, but Im not sure to change the original slow kernel, for a faster. All have some bugs, battery life, wifi, etc...
I dont know, which could be better for the stock rom, or which could be better than the original.
Anyway, I want to try one of that, but I dont know which.
How can I flash just the kernel? And also back up my programs with titanium, or mybackup?
It clears everything like the rom flashing?
Ok, I made it, its cool, and faster. Thanks for the help.
is the overclocking "app" in standard cm7? Or i must go to market or anything else to download it?

Hi
I using the original Acer Iconia A500 ROM.
I try to use SetCPU to OC my A500, the max is 1Mhz.
But when I use custom ROM, SetCPU can OC up to 1.6Mhz.
May I know how to set this 1.6Mhz for original Acer ROM??
With stock, are you using the stock kernel, or custom kernel?
You need a custom kernel that allows OC.

so which kernel will be best for the original rom??
1 more question, stock = original rom from acer??
I used RichardTrip's kernel, you can find it in the dev section... Works great with stock ROM and supports up to 1.64ghz overclock.
And yes, Stock = Original ROM from Acer.

Note: Just because you CAN go to 1.6, doesn't mean you SHOULD! That's WAY faster than the CPU is rated for so don't be surprised if you get some pretty major issues. I run at 1.4 and find it way more than enough and it stays stable.

+1 on that. I'm at 1.4 and very stable, no problems.
I am on ATT, which doesn't have a custom recovery. Am I able to say download Rom Toolbox and change the kernel settings and underclock the phone and change governor on the stock ROM, or do I need a custom Kernel to do this? Sorry if this is a noob question.

I'm actually on official LOS14.1 on my GT-i9505.
and the phone comes quicly very hot.
What is the best rom to keep the phone cold?
thanks.
Stock ROM is going to be the best.
Stock ROM used to keep the CPU to high frequency which make the phone overheating.
I'm looking for a ROM which allows to keep the phone cold as a normal phone.
I've used stock roms on several different s4 phones and none of them get hot.
Sounds like the rom on the phone is not allowing the cpu to vary its frequency.
Is the phone running an unrooted stock rom?

Hi,
Are you rooted? There are many apps from which you can undervolt the cpu, which will help in keeping it cool as well as save battery.
I come back on LP stock. I will see if CPU is still overheating.
Do you advise a kernel to undervolt CPU on this rom ?

Hi @bilatche ,
Try nevermorex kernel here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop/nevermore-kernel-v1-t3391795 , make sure you have backup of stock kernel just in case.

I think OP has i9505 which is not compatible with that kernel you suggest.

You can take a look over custom kernels in i9505 section that might meet your expectations.
