Has anyone attempted to or successfully overclocked their G2X yet? I'm doubtful that anyone has, but if you did please share your experience here as I'm very curious!

As far as I know - to overclock we need a custom kernel that supports it... so I doubt anyone did it already
I have been using an app from the market called speed boost from the market that requires root. It seems to actually increase the processor speed in small increments. It does have to be redone on every boot. Stock quadrant 2500's and with the app 2700's, its not much but still an answer to the initial question.

That's what I figured also...well development seems to be moving fast so I'll happily wait until then Lol thanks!
we can check optimus 2x. forum I know there people already overclocking

Hmmm I looked into it a bit and it seems like the only way you can do it on the Optimus 2X is to use a custom kernel (I believe it was the EternityProject Kernel). Hopefully they bring it over to the G2X soon!
ok I got from optimus 2x forum.
Overclock 1.3Ghz -1.4Ghz

Do not install a kernel from the O2x. However, I believe someone had an overclock module (part of the kernel) that *should* be safe. Obviously be very confident in your backup/recovery capabilities before trying anything.
The Xoom running the same chipset has been overclocked to 1.5ghz. No one overclocked the g2x yet but surely that won't be too far off in the distance.

Patience dear baldwingguy. We just got root a few days ago, and just got a test version of a custom recovery last night ! Once that is all good, you'll start to see custom kernels and ROMs with overclocking capabilities. Also, enjoy the speed it comes with for a bit before wanting more gigahertz so soon !!!

Really how much faster do we want it??? Im down for some underclocking, undervolting to c how much juice we get out of the 1500 mAh, hopefully theloginwithnoname can swing by here and help calibrate battery once everything gets rolling.

Can we overclock our GPU? Like the one in the optimus 3d? Ours is at 200MHz core? or RAM? And I think the one from the optimus is 300MHz core I'd assume.

Once you start over clocking the GOS you really gona kill not only battery life, but your phone will be able to cook eggs lol"

after eric posted this i did some research
and its been done on other phones(not many maybe 2) but it seems almost impossible because our gpu and cpu are on the same chip :/ so technically that means that whatever we OC cpu wise also touches the gpu
supposedly..
Why would you want to overclock the GPU? Most games i've seen perform very well, and with an nvidia driver you can even play tegra games.

Why...do you want to play Crysis on it?
Is not important why. Can be done or not.
Even if such thing is possible to the Desire S GPU, It's definitely Ill advised as there is no proper cooling to support any over clocking and you may end up frying your Board & GPU.

You sir, just made my day !!!!!!!
I agree, overclocking GPU isn't required. Overclocking causes overheating, and can potentially, fry your GPU.

sorry i am just wondering because on the forum of lg optimus 2x there is a thread there which their gpu is Oced.. mod please close this thread.

Trying to start a flamewar? This is PRERELEASE. There are still bugs slowing it down.
Quadrant scores can easily be "tweaked" with a few files. I'll only believe something is fast when I can try it for myself

Which is why I say bonesy is attempting to troll. Look at his IO score. The tweak just so happens to boost that exact score

lol @ quadrant scores.
Well I'm just curious (as I'm sure many others are) what kind of qualitative results folks are seeing.
Personally it seems zippier, and lets face it it just more fun having a real ICS ROM vs a ICS lok-alike.
Don't get me wrong, we have some excellent devs who work tirelessly to squeeze our 'Rockets for all they can get me(and I'm sure we'll see some AMAZING ICS-build ROMS sooner rather than later.) I thought this would be a good starting/reference point for us to look back upon...

Not overclocked at all. Going through older screenshots and I have a 6607 on GB stock as well. I've hit 7334 when OC (sry, included wrong screenshot for that one).
I got 6190 on the new ICS Rom. My scores were lower compared to Pixelens until the IO performance. My numbers were significantly better for DB, read and write.
6315 AnTuTu on stock ICS. Only ran it twice and that was the second score.
The phone is definitely more responsive vs. Gingerbread though.
I'm thinking they redid the kernel to be more like an interactive governor.
More emphasis on the user experience, and less emphasis on the background processing.

Yeah, benchmarks don't mean anything to me. If it runs fast, doesn't lag, and transitions are smooth, etc...I could care less about a benchmark number and they differ so much from one run to another anyways. Pshh, who cares
Here is mine. I only ran the benchmark twice.
Hey, I just have a quick Question, I'm using Jellybam Rom and im getting a score of 4.788 on (Quadrant Standard) benchmark (without any overclock), i tried AOKP 4.2 rom with the overclocked 1.8 last night but im just getting 4.3 - 4.5 score, i just dont understand how a none overclocked rom is giving me a better score than an Overclocked 1.8 Rom. I will appreciate any suggestion.

Benchmarks don't necessarily mean anything.. and it certainly does not mean that the overclocked kernel is LESS powerful than the non overclocked kernel. Don't pay too much attention to benchmark numbers man.

Benchmarks means nothing... Real world usage is what matters.
I get like 4k in quadrant with CM10, but its a hell a lot faster in the real world than stock ICS 4.0.4 (which scored little over 9k).

No prob.
But then, i agree with the thought that benchmarks mean nothing and what's more important is the real life usage because even though JB produces higher benchmark in both quadrant and antutu, in real life, the stock ICS feels so much smoother and stable.
