How much can nexus s oc to? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey I come from the evo forums and since there was a lot of speculation about nexus s coming to sprint, I was wondering how much you can oc that to
Thanks

1.4Ghz as far as I know

mine is at 1.4 but i never use it that fast but at 1.4 my quadrant score was 3254 if that matters to you though

most phones can oc to 1.4ghz, many can oc to 1.5ghz, some can oc to 1.6ghz, and a few special phones to 1.7ghz. i can oc to 1.6ghz and run it as a daily driver stably, and can hit 1.7ghz unstably.

Here we go again, well I can OC to 2ghz and I have a quadrant of 4k+, does that help? Lol

Even if these speeds can be run with stability, what are the longer term implications for reliability?

The higher the OC the shorter the processor life, that is the general formula. But in terms of longevity, you should get many years OC'ing without problems.. You will know your individual processor breaking point because your scrolling will slow, and you will get reboots... Just install CM and cruise at 1.3ghz and you should be safe

I can only run to 1.3 GHz stable, but there isn't any long term implications that I know of. My Nexus One was overclocked for months and never suffered any ill effects so I suspect the Nexus S will fair well or even better than that phone.

There is implications for any OC, but they will probably will not be felt in the short to mid term. OC damage can take years, but can also hit you in the short term if you OC to dangerous levels

Here i oc to 1.2 but can run till 1.3 stable.

Tegrak overclock app?

Anyone else use this app to overclock? Im bored at work and instead of working I just installed it and ran quadrant, which I know that's all its really good for, and hit over 1900 at 1.3 ghz. Im gonna leave it there for a bit to see if anything goes wrong...
Edit: eats battery like buttery salty movie theatre popcorn!

I don't understand why anyone wants to overclock our phones? From everything I have read all it will do is decrease battery life and give higher quad scores which really mean nothing.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
i think whats more important, or more NEEDED, is voltage control.
be it voltage control for OC'ing or Voltage Control for underclocking, or just dropping the voltages as low as you can go while maintaning the stock phone speeds.
this is one thing i miss about the EVO.

Because its fun. Of course there is no practical value in it I even said that. I personally just like to mess with my phone to mess with it and I'm sure others do too. does a theme make your phone run better or more efficiently are they important to practicality? No it just changes its looks so why do people do that? It's fun.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I mean...there's plenty of practical reasons to overclock, e.g. better performance in a game. But if you're sitting around playing a game for a while, I doubt your concern is battery life to begin with.
tegrak uses module overlock similar to how the dx/d2/milestone are able to oc/uv without the ability to accept custom kernels
its not ideal (for those that overclock) compared to actual custom kernels with oc steps.
that being said, overclock isnt particularly important on 1ghz and up processors..whereas the eris/og droid needed it to compensate
I am using it, overclocked to 1.3 and then using setcpu to keep it at 800. I just want to have the speed and power there if needed

I'm on Eclair rooted w/ Voodoo and regularly pull 1800+ Quadrant scores and get a solid 12hr. of battery life with screen brightness at around 60% (easily visible outside). I have no idea why anyone would want to use an OC tool... other than to have than extra bit of control that would allow you to undervolt even further for additional battery life.
EDIT-
To:Zach - I'm calling your boss to tell them that you're off-task and that they should make you quit the OC'ing and get back to work ASAP.

...if anyone else wants to try em, check out Fascinate Development for EC10 kernals that are for Touchwiz. Be smart and watch what you are flashing.

Offically OC'ed to 1.5 ghz

Check rom manager in the download roms section there is Drod's 1.5ghz kernal pulled 2495 quadrant thus far will play with it some more though.

1804 has already been achieved. I think were going to get a stable zone at 1.5ghz.
but really this phone even clocked at 768mhz is still blazing fast.

This is so true. I underclocked my phone to 768MHz to try out how it would work for a day. I ended up entirely forgetting I had done that until I ran a benchmark.
seeing all this is amazing, I am very tempted to try it out, but this beast is super fast with having to OC it, lol

I don't know if you're right or not but I just flashed the 1.5 kernel and at 1.4 this thing is as fast as a computer..I hope you're right because I don't wanna go back to 1ghz..
Got 2016 quadrant after a reboot which is 300 higher than I got at 1 gig..
http://www.qualcomm.com/snapdragon/specs
Right below the dual core, High performance Smart Phones section. MSM8655 is our processor, it comes @ 1.0ghz, plam pre3 has the same and it comes @ 1.4ghz. The chip can take it but I think it was lowered for battery concern. I notice a lot of speed just flying through different programs when OC to 1.5, it opens them much faster, could be the I/O tweaks as well though. As for PC, mine puts out 42 gflops compared to my phones 49 mflops, still a long way off, thats 0.001% of the processing power. This phone is no slouch, so I guess it speaks more for my computers power.
sweet....im just gonna run it at 1.4 and since i have the 2750 battery i'm not gonna worry about battery life at all. i love this phone right now..

New Web Benchmark Vellamo

Qualcomm have released a new web benchmark.
http://www.talkandroid.com/46561-qu...lamo-for-benchmarking-mobile-web-performance/
Post your scores here.
Here are mine for comparison:
SGS: 552
HTC Sensation: 744
For some reason my HTC Sensation scores quite low compared to the reference one
642.
The sensation they had listed was around 900. Wonder how they pulled that off?
Mine is a sensation by the way. Sorry for not stating that.
Mine is 746.
Got a 753.
Does using wifi make a difference?
Edit: 2nd run 777.
quick question for the ppl that downloaded this app and are overclocked. while overclocked, go to the vellamo app and go to system info, under cpu do it show both cores being overclocked cause when im oc'd it shows core 1 being oc'd and core 2 as 0, but both cores show the same freq when not oc'd. so my question is, is the method we use to oc just working on 1 core?

this is what it show on mines with no overclock, both cores show being clocked the same
damn sorry for the big pic
got a 760. no overclock. seems to be around the average... not counting that 900 score it shows.
and this is what it shows oc'd
So every time I run it I get a lower score. Now I'm down to 588. What the hell? Should I be concerned?
Also mine is not oc'd. Core 1 -1188, core 2 - 0. Could that be why I'm getting such low scores?
The comparison's inevitable, here's my SGS2. 941.
i wonder how fast does a stock android score hmmmm cant wait for perm ROOT
with a few tweaks i got my sensation upto 928. im sure i could push it a bit higher too.
edit: 951 on second run.
overclocked w/bloatware removed.
The scrolling tests show how badly we need a 3d accelerated browser/user interface on the Sensation.
I got 767 on my Sensation.

samsung galaxy r Quadrant benchmark score

Hello,
not that those numbers matter so much but just out of curiosity why the new samsung with the same chipset as the o2x scores so much higher in Quadrant?
Is it because of the 1GB of RAM?

i may be corrected but i think the galaxy r has uses EXT 4, while our o2x uses EXT 3 when referenced as stock, giving the o2x a considerably lesser score in quadrant
quadrant is outdated and no use for newer phones, those scores mean nothing as far as im aware quadrant STILL does not properly support dual core devices.
Try cf-bench, made by the creator of chainfire3d, try at standard clock speed then try cloakk the cpu to match that of the sgs2 and you will see that the tegra 2 device out performs its rivals in many areas when the over clock is matched. and sometimes even when is lower.
really sick of seeing quadrant its such a crap app.

Yes but the stock rom is crap, and if the o2x tegra 2 chip was released overclocked like the sgs2 was then the o2x would get better stats, the sgs2 gpu is good but the tegra gpu is way better with 3d stuff and that's whats important as we get into more advanced games.
I take it you have not rooted or installed any custom roms so i suggest you do, it will open up your phone to better things and increase performance by 100% compared to that crappy stock rom.

Yeah buddy, stock ICS leask #1. 1200!!! I've had 4 A2's and 2 out of 4 came equipped with 1200 stock ICS. I believe it's luck of the draw man. Don't sweat it, the other two were 1000 but was able to OC both at 1200 with no bootlooping issues. GL.

I'm sure Moto didn't choose to put some A2's on 1200 and keep the others on 1000. The OTAs files pushed out to all the phones are identical. So what's causing these differences in clock speeds? Beats me

They may have, putting a check in place that queries the CPU's specific ID to find out what batch it's from. If it's from a good batch, 1200, if not, 1000. That's a POSSIBILITY.

That makes sense.. I tried to OC this phone at one time and couldn't even get to 1100mhz without it freezing and doing stupid ****. I just thought I was doing something wrong. And I was so happy that I would finally be able to get to 1200mhz without having to do anything. I guess I just got the **** CPU....

Very interesting.... I wouldn't put it past Motorola to only overclock the "good" chips, nice quality assurance there Moto . First time I heard about this I just thought "Well okay, an overclock from GB stuck through to ICS, no big deal", but it's been confirmed that isn't the case. Strange how some are overclocked and some are not. A big company like Moto shouldn't have "good" batches and "bad" batches, if that is the case we will never get an official word on this, maybe it's a kind of soak test, trying the 1.2 over clock on certain phones only..... But I don't know.

I'm sure Moto didn't choose to put some A2's on 1200 and keep the others on 1000. The OTAs files pushed out to all the phones are identical. So what's causing these differences in clock speeds? Beats me

I think it does something to check if your cpu is capable of being stable at the higher speed. Unfortunately, mine is still at 1000Mhz also. I was hoping for the higher speed but not so lucky.
Its not that simple of a check to determine if it can run...
- Mine bootlooped when OC'd to 1200 on 2.3.5
- Its 1200 on 4.0 fine
- Others had it OC'd to 1200 with no problem on 2.3.5
- They have it set by default to 1000 on ICS
I made a survey about this some time ago, but almost all of my theories went down the drain...
mine stayed at 1000mhz.:banghead:
Sent from my MB865 using ICS
What's the default voltage and governor for 1200MHz enabled devices?
