Ok so im running EB 2.3.4 and im running morfics kernel which ocs up to 1.5ghz and can uv, and am using set cpu. Im trying to uv everything from 1.1ghz under by 50mhz. and when i hit apply in set cpu my phone will freeze and restart. i dont have apply when booting because im afraid of a bootl;oop but my question is is my phone restarting because it cant handle the uv? am i undervolting wrong? or is it restarting to make the changes? Any help on undervolting with setcpu is appreciated. I also have pimpmycpu if anyone can help with that but im more familliar with setcpu
If it freezes and restarts, your chip can't handle it.
Start of by UV ing in increments of -25mV for frequencies 1000 to 216 MHz first as its easier to UV the lower freq rather than any freq above 1000 also try fauxs stock voltage kernel if you keep having trouble with morfics because its more UV friendly at least for my device as it can UV lower without issues
Ah thanks for the advice! Ill give that a try!

So I have...
My G2x Is running at 1gz\.4 I don't find a need to OV it...
The UV is set at -50 at 1gz and at 800 it is -100 and at 500 and 400 at -200mv.
What are your sets? I would like to see other people's choices. I will report on my battery life later. I can't today since I have been going into recovery mode all morning.
Ps. As profiles go...
I have screen off set to 800/400. I don't like it lagging when i turn my screen on.
I can run stress test easily with my settings. No hiccups or anything.
EDIT:
So I was asked what kernel I'm using... I will post my ROM + KErnel! and just to let you know, my G2x has never had any problems so that may be way my G2x can get -200 on 500 and 400
And I am using faux's CM7 Kernel Version 0.2.4
Full name:
"2.6.32.41-CM7-Faux123-v0.2.4
Mod version
CyanogenMod-EagleBlood_v1.2
Im new to setcpu, good thread for me to learn a bit more from other users...

How are you not getting reboot problems with 400 at -200mv? I'm using faux's froyo kernel and when I undervolt at -100mv i get rebooting problems
I replied to your comment in my main post, since other people may be interested in that and that will cause them not to scan the pages.
Bump :\ I would like input
so how is your battery life?
Bad. Something about those settings messed it up. I much prefer just using the custom rom default kernel its much better on the battery

My chip could only use faux's OC 1.2ghz, using the kernel OC 1.5 would cause my phone to boot loop. I could go stable @ faux OC 1.2 with minimum UV, getting qudrant score of atleast 3000 - 3500. Another kernel that i tried is MOrfic's, I can go stable up to 1.4 Ghz/minimum UV- quadrant of atleast 4000-4300. I believe i have what they say as the "weak chip" though running OC @ 1.4 ghz doesn't make it look weak. Thanks to the great DevS!
I am using Tsugi 2.3.4 with the Oyasumi 0.1 UV kernal I want to overclock to 1500 but what settings should I undervolt it to that is stable thanks in advance for the info.

We can't tell you not all phones are the same, uv a little (10 or 25) run it for a day or two see how it acts, if its steady, uv a little more, when it starts acting up thats your limit go back to previous settings.
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!

I've seen some general advice not to UV for anything over 1ghz speeds as well, but it may not hurt to try if you want and adjust as needed for stability.
I'm running on a -75mv at 1.5Ghz faux kernel 0.4.7..
Perfectly stable, benchmarked AnTuTu, Quadrant, and all those other good stuff.
I have not tried -100mv yet, I doubt it will be stable.
Every phone is different, but I run mine at -20 up to 1 G, and -10 for the rest.
Mine I cant undervolt shoot I have to keep my minimum frequency at 500 to be stable, course I can also run at 1.5 all day (I keep it at 1.2).
Well I guess I can't say I cant UV since I use pimp my cpu and it only gives you options in 25 increments, maybe I would be stable at like -10. But coming from my galaxy s 4g where I could UV over -150 and still be stable, that just doesnt even sound worth doing.
Edit: I just thought about it and maybe the reason I cant UV (more) is because I'm using fauxs pre UV/OC kernel, so I dont even know what stock voltage is. But comparing to my sgs4g at stock voltage I am running considerably lower voltages on the g2x.
The faux thread says it's pre uv at -50 across the board.

Hi all, the nightly #33 ICS by EOS was my very first Rom flash. Liking it, but have a question about the built in overclock options.
I understand that before this, people were using either Kernals or SetCPU to set their CPU frequency values.
For this build, do we alter both values, or just one?
Can anyone help me by posting examples of their Min and Max values?
Would a 1.5 OC be [email protected] and [email protected]?
Thanks

I wouldn't put the min at 1.5 because you are going to lose any battery savings. The max should be 1.5 and any time a demanding application is launched the CPU governor will ramp up the speed. That is the way I understand it anyway.
Thanks, for clearing that up. I'll leave the minimum values alone and just alter the max settings and see how far I can get with it being stable.
I use set cpu with profiles. I slow the cpu down as the battery goes down.
battery level cpu speed
100% 1504 (stable 4 me)
70% 1200
50% 1000
hi every1.
I've been searching but didn't find any info about the topic.
Does someone knows how or just tryed already to overclock the gpu to higher rates? (i would like to get more to play better games).
another question: i'm using the matr1x kernel (17.5) and in the menu i have an option to overclock the gpu but there're options to get it to 1000Mhz? really?
Which are the riscs?
I apreciated any info.
thanks in advance

stock nexus s gpu is at clocked at 200mhz. you CAN NOT overclock it 500% to 1000ghz. thats just silly. thats like overclocking your cpu to 5ghz. the highest ive overclocked my gpu or ran a kernel that already has it overclocked is 250mhz. thats a 25% oc

That's the CPU clock you're looking at. LiveOC can overclock the GPU as a percentage value (ie, 110% is 200 * 110% = 220mhz), but it does the same to the CPU (so 1000mhz turns into 1100mhz). This will generally need adjusting the voltages upward.
So no need for any app to oc, just increase the LiveOc % ?
ya, that question about overclocking the gpu to higher then 300mhz was really silly, but asked t anyway
GPU Clock is stock at 200mhz, CPU is at 1000mhz. Increase LiveOC % and you'll go up by that percentage. Just remember, as i said, you will most likely need to adjust voltages to prevent instability and reboots. It's best just to set all of this up using NSTools.
Ok. I've tryed oc to 110% but instable. just need to set voltages to get the right combo.
Thanks!!
Not all phones can handle such an OC (either because of GPU or CPU, or combination, it all varies). Hopefully you can get a stable setup, the extra GPU OC is a great performance booster.

And what a performance booster... I never bothered to try the LiveOC... I just OCed the CPU and thought that was the most I can do. But with 110% LiveOC and 1300MHz CPU OC, my phone is now eve faster than before.
Good evening all,
I am currently running vb with the latest above kernel and xda-edition of setcpu...
My question, has anyone found voltages that are stable?
I have always/only used tegrak, when adjusting the voltages I am able to adjust "internal" as well as "core" voltages, as you may know setcpu only allows the adjustment of one voltage. So, I set all levels to the "internal" voltages that worked for me on tegrak(scaling set to smartass), everything was working fine until I rebooted the phone... At that point the phone would boot then freeze after the third media scan, I had to flash back to the b1 kernel to get back up and running.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

You're trying to undervolt? Anton's b5 in undervolted. I'd stick with his recommended values.
How do you actually implement these voltages? I've only used Tegrak so this is new
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
QUIETLYloud , I dont't have paid Tegrak so I cannot make a thorough test.
I tried using very old Ultimate version available someplace on the web, and it does in fact seem to mess the phone up. I didn't need to reflash, but had to uninstall Tegrak, reboot, clear caches, and rescan SD for errors. Google says that there were issues with Tegrak module and custom kernels, but they were supposedly fixed around version 1.4.
I tied the new free version 1.6.7 from Market. It doesn't let me do much (like setting on boot), but at least it seems to work correctly with frequencies.
The setup with OC kernel is a little different. Before, if you wanted to OC, you would go and enable CPU Max Frequency, which would replace 1 GHz. Do not go there! The kernel already has all overclocking frequencies available. Instead set the Scaling to the highest frequency you want to use (let's say 1.2 Ghz, which is CPU Level 2). Then go to Optimization and set desired voltages for the frequencies you chose. No need to change anything for frequencies above you max scaling, the CPU will not go there anyway. Maybe it's a good idea to completely clear Tegrak data and start setting it up form scratch.
Let me know if you succeed.
Btw common Google knowledge doesn't seem to recommend lowering internal voltages. You will not gain much, there is just not a lot of current draw there. It's the core that draws a lot of current.
EDIT: Hmm... Tegrak seems to have a problem with smartassV2 governor. If the scaling in Tegrak is set to use anything but all frequencies, including 1.4 Ghz, the governor will never lower the frequency from the highest selected. The kernel itself (with SetCPU or without) doesn't have this problem, it's only when proprietary Tegrak module is loaded.
AntonX...
I decided to scrap tegrak for the time being and use what you recommended with setcpu and left voltages alone until I have a better understanding, since doing so haven't had any problems
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Btw I said before I set the default voltages kind of safe, even if they are slightly undervolted. I'm running the kernel UV-ed a little more with SetCPU for second day without any issues. Here are my numbers right now:
1.4 - 1350
1.3 - 1300
1.2 - 1275
1.0 - 1250
800 - 1175
400 - 1025
200 - 925
100 - 900
Hi guys
I apologize for some noobness coming this way, but I don't understand. Kernel beta5 is oc/uv - what does it mean if I don't use setcpu/tegrak?
Will kernel behave other than prior versions?
And if I decide to do use setcpu? What good does it make if uv makes no change (according to Antonx) and oc will only drain the battery even more, I mean, phone is pretty much fast, so why bother oc it?
Thanks!
