Hello!
Is there any way to set the SGS+ to run at 1.4GHz all the time?
All the apps I`ve tried still lets the CPU underclock at 248MHz...
This would render the battery no faster, but with Master CPU Antutu you should do it
if it runs at 1.4GHz all the time i think ur phone will heat up all the time, battery won't even last more than 12 hours and ur battery life span will wear out even faster

The easiest way is to set the CPU governor as "performance" Antutu CPUMaster or SetCPU are good choices as an apps. You can't miss it

Hi there, is it possible to overclock GPU?
i guess on most devices overclocking DOES overclock cpu and gpu at the same time

i don't think so bcs they are different hardware parts and when you overclock cpu it is sth about cpufrec but yeah when you overclock cpu it effects graphics too bcs it makes processes faster ...( i just think like that bcs of being a linux user open source foreveeeeeeeeeer )
If we could overclock the gpu on the android then the android would take over the world

android has already became a legend by being the first os in USA(Apple's IOS is losing users. )
So it is still impossible, right?

i think it is possible ( when i think that they are like little computers) but i dunno how to do it.
to start, youd probably want to dissect the software driver and see what it offers.
Well, when we will able to overclock GPU - we should not buy new and new devices, because our present devices are old. But how about temperature? Will battery get hot like in overclocking CPU?
well, from what i understand the gpu for most devices shares space with the cpu on dye and that there is a divider of sorts that keeps the gpu speed a percentage of the cpu.. and since cpus can oc better then gpus, the whole reason we can oc is due to the fact that devs have figured out how to uncouple the clock increase of the cpu from the gpu, otherwise the gpus clock would limit the cpu.. now overclocking itself doesnt increase heat and most of the time (depending on what governor is used) it doesnt always run at full clock so theres not a high constant current drain causing the battery to get hot (unless you run an intensive app continually) also, you wont see the cpu overheat as long as the voltage stays stock, but increasing cpu voltage is how you will get past the th max (thermal maximum)
now if you could adjust that divider you could oc the gpu..
Right so my phone can get pretty hot some times and I was just wondering if I undervolt it will it reduce the heat of my phone?
Also how much difference does UV actually show
It can't, because you can undervoltage not much or your phone won't be stable anymore.I think the easier way is to downclock your cpu speed.

It can help in term of technical, but in actually at the rate you can see the different of it.I don't think your phone will still stable or functional.

He means that you can use an app like SetCPU to underclock or lower the clock frequency of your phones CPU, this will leave you a slower but cooler phone.
yes, if you undervolt you reduce cpu "power consuption" as equally as how many volt you decrese.. but.. if you undervolt too much, you lose cpu stability, so, if you undervolt you have to underclock, the same for overclock, if you overclock you may overvolt
it's different for all peoples, some users could have a better cpu (with less impurity), it can be overcloccked better with less overvolt, some can have a bad cpu chip, it means they have to overvolt so much for a little overclock
i have a sensation normally with -75mV undervolt and stock clock, it's stabe, so, am i lucky?
Temperature is a function of voltage + clockspeed. It is recommended you stay at 1.2ghz for good balance b/w performance, temp, and battery consumption.
To easily find your optimal voltage threshold, globally undervolt in stages of 12.5mv until your phone because unstable. Then increase it by 1 stage and that is the optimal voltage your phone should be running at.
Of course you can even go as far as tweak voltages at different clock speeds. Usually there is much more room to UV the lower clocks (192 and 384mhz around 800 or 812.5mv) than the higher clocks.
Hope this helps

Hello. I have got Galaxy3 with Kyrillos ROM v9.4 non-OC. Yesterday I installed G3MOD v2.3 OC kernel. I set CPU (in setCPU) frequency for 1200MHz and CPU has got 35 Celsius Degree in game (eg Burn the Rope, Angry Birds) and about 29 Celsius Degree in Opera Mini.
Is it harmful for CPU or phone?
Will my phone broke down faster than phone with CPU freq at 667MHz?
What is safe temperature for CPU in Galaxy3?
Thank for any help.

Yes it will. But don't worry by that time you would have changed your phone. These chips are made to last at least five yrs. Bottom line: don't worry abt of, I use it all the time
Cheers

you should keep the temperature below 30 degrees
I use oc at 800hz and it's really fast, but if you need more don't abuse on time with high frequencies
Same for me, I use on a daily basis OC from 83 to 800 in lagfree
and i don't feel a big difference when i OC to 1000, but I don't play games a lot, and the games I play generaly don't need a big cpu...
you can find some tips to set your cpu

So you would recommend using oc ROM? I am I
Using non-OC kyrillos 9.4 and It seems pretty fast to me. How much would I Get with settings to 1000 mhz?
And what about battery consumption on 1000 mhz?

i haven't noticed significant change to battery life between non-oc and oc. although i generally keep my governor as conservative although on kyrillos ROM is set to on demand as standard and before i changed didn't see change in battery performance.

well i ve been using OC kernel for a long time...and it has not affected my phone in any bad way...it improves the performance....maybe u need to set sum profiles in setcpu....but all i can say that it doesnt affect the phone that much in my opinion but may eat up the battery....so better set the setcpu profiles
OC: Lagsfree, but shortens cpu's life...
Non-OC: Laggy, but save battery...
So recently I've become too lazy to constantly charge my Captivate and began to experiment with undervolting/underclocking it. Has anyone found optimal voltage for battery life? I've currently got every step of 200mhz down 100 volts and underclocked to a max of 800mhz. I'm on Semaphore kernel 2.9.5sc.

There isn't a optimal setting as all phones act different. Testing is the best you can do.
which cpu governor are you running? that may have more effect than underclocking/undervolting on battery life.
user Stempox has a nice post on cpu governors here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28647926
the screen on time and data/gps traffic, and apps that keep the phone awake, do more to effect power drain than other factors. so, if you manage those, and choose the governor that suits you preferences, then undervolting and underclocking aren't needed, IMHO.
you can tweak the governor settings with Semaphore manager, if you really want to do that too.
the thing is, you may end up keeping the screen on longer than you would at higher cpu speeds, which would counter any battery savings. also, undervolting can increase the error rate, which means further delays while phone is awake.
hope this is helpful in your pursuit of fewer charging cycles.

I'm pretty new to Android. I got my N5 2 months ago and rooted it as soon as I took it out of the box to get rid of the navigation bar. Didnt install any ROM or kernal.
What I did today was try to overclock it. I wanted to test the performance upgrade with Geekbench 3.
I got 2500. Tried to overclock with this app called: No-frills CPU control. And suddenly I get no higher than 2000...... Tried everything. I'm stuck at a multi core score of 2000 in geekbench while it should be 2500>.
WTF DO I DO? My device is noticeably slower, it's like a GS4 D: I'd rather not install any kernals/Roms
I set the minimum CPU frequency to 300Mhz and max to 2.266Ghz
Hi,
Thermal throttling..., overclocking produces more heat than the stock CPU freq so more thermal throttling. To prevent any damage, the CPU freq decreases according to the CPU temperature...
Let cool down your phone.

Sure, I'll turn it off for a while.
Just to make sure: the standard CPU frequencies are 300Mhz MIN and 2.266Ghz MAX, right?

Yes, that's right 300 Mhz-2,26 Ghz.
Not necessary to turn your phone OFF , when it boots it's a process that causes "heat" at the beginning then you will need to let it cool down again. EDIT: oups, you mean the thermal throttling OFF maybe?
Don't touch it for a while, airplane mode can help. If you are in a "hot" country/weather, air cooling, fridge...
