I' am total noob so sorry for asking stupid questions. I have install stock ICS and now I flashed with GLaDOS V2.2 kernel. In my settings or app drawer I don't see some kind of customization. I want to know where and how to adjust the speed of the CPU to work on smaller frequency ( to have better battery ) and to adjust the screen colors ( GLaDOS V2.2 voodoo setings ) ?
Also I have green flickr when unlocking the phone (when I was on stock kernel I didn't have this problem). How to fix this?
Again sorry for asking stupid questions but I really can't find answer with search function on this forum.
P.S. I have Nexus S GT-I9020T on Wind, Stock ICS ROM 4.0.3 and GLaDOS V2.2 kernel.
Well I'm kinda a newb to the nexus but I have the same setup, had to install voodoo from the app market and used setcpu to change cpu. Setcpu is not free.
Can somebody tell me why my rgb settings won't stay.
I was thinking that Voodoo and CPU setup have to be implemented in the standard setup menu of the ROM. I think that on CMD 7 they were implemented inside the setup menu.
Install NSTools from Market.
Thank you for the help.

Hey guys i cannot post in the ORIGINAL thread because not enough post so i open new one here. FYI, already used SEARCH BUTTON...but still not satisfied :'(
I just want to know:
1. How to change touch screen sensitivity?
2. How to use voodoo sound & color? need to install voodoo apps from market?
3. How to use BLN? need to install BLN apps from market?
4. does this kernel include EXT4 by flashing it? do i need to do anything else for it?
5. What is stable and best performance for cpu & governer?
Thank you so much! and SORRY if i make wrong thread.
I can answer few.
2. Yes
3. Yes
5. Smartass and min of 200mhz. Max is up to you and what your phone can handle.

1. The sensitivity is already changed for you.
2. Voodoo Control App from market.
3. Yes download BLN
4. Yes
5. Play around with it and find out which one works best for you. I personally use smartass
awesomee!!
thanks u guys for rply and helping me....really appreciate it so much!!
How much improvement in battery life do you guys see from Smartass as opposed to On Demand?
Hey,
I've updated my Android Revolution HD ROM yesterday, but since I've done that the O/C Daemon has no values to choose in the dropdown/comboboxes. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there any fix? I don't really know why this happened at all.. I'd like to know the actual settings but I can't even see them, so I don't know anything about my CPU right now.
Thanks for your help.
read the description of the ROM
1. he leaves the kernals stock!!!!!!!! install setcpu if ya just want to downclock a STOCK KERNEL
2. go to the kernel section download a custom kernel that you can OVERCLOCK and then go from there... it will install all necessary files for daemon controller
before the update, on 1.1.7 i think, i had the OC daemon installed as well, and it had all information i needed, i was able to choose between frequencies. so i just don't know why it's gone after the update.

really? keep trying and reflash 1.1.8 until it does work... or get a new phone
New update, but still no values in oc daemon. Could anyone please explain this to me? Even if it's a "silly" question - i dont know. I'm kinda new to all this, it's my first android phone, so excuse me if I don't know everything..
If you are using 1.1.8 it comes with a stocked kernel so there is no ability to over clock. So the fields will be blank. If you want to over clock then flash a custom kernel. They are all listed on Mike's custom kernel section.
If using 2.1 it also is on a stock kernel and OC is not even included with the ROM.

can someone help me out, i have 3 nexus s 4gs each on different roms but some of the same problems.
first, my phone (nscollab+franco kernel) and my wife's phone (Matr1x rom + kernel) will sometime shut down, and the power button wont work, i have to pull the battery to get it to work again
second, this is rare but every now and again the phones reboot and play the boot animation in inverted colors not sure why.
but is there something im missing, new radio, spl? or are my settings for the kernels not right, any help would be appreciated.
Does this happen on Matr1x v11.5?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Hey mathkid. No I tried to dl that version but flashing was failing, has the link been fixed? I would like to get new version on my phone as well, also could you recommended settings for nstool for me, like voltages, CPU government, ext.
Oh man I just looked and you closed the rom thread so you mean the kernel and no I'm running franco and my wife has the old matr1x rom so. what do you suggest I flash
Try Matr1x v11.5 cfs and start off w/ 1000/100 ondemand w/ no deep idle
if that runs well we can adjust further
K will try, I'll report back
So I recently rooted my Galaxy Nexus and other than using WidgetLocker I haven't done anything to my phone to take advantage of my root and SU privileges.
This is my first phone that I have done this too so this is all a major learning curve which brings me to my question(s):
(1) Can the phones memory be over locked?
[If yes....] What are the factory Memory Times and what is a safe level to overclock them to - and How?
(2) What is the factory setting for the processor and what is a safe and efficient overclocked setting?
Is the Highest (but again safe and efficient) level a noticeable change?
(3) Overclocking the GPU can reach a maximum setting of 512Mhz (correct?)
What is the default setting for the GPU and is overclocking the GPU to the highest (but "safest" & efficient) level noticeable and worth the trouble?
(4) How do I overclock my phone?
I know that (probably) a kernel replacement is going to be the answer to this question but I was wondering if maybe there is a script I could run in recovery console or terminal, whatever...instead of replacing the entire kernel.
If the kernel is the only way, does this effect future ICS system updates?
What is the best (most stable, most features, best for overclocking) kernel for ICS/GalaxyNexus? - I dont know poop about kernels.
(4a) with the kernel loaded, what apps do I need to snatch from the market to actually overclock my Galaxy Nexus? Try to recommend free ones please =P
(5) Since I am replacing the Kernel, should I dive in 100% and flash a ROM too?
Yes?: what is the best (very very stable, fast, efficient, tweakable) ROM out there for GNexus?
do roms do anything to assist in the overclocking process?
The only reason I would consider a ROM too is because I want Wifi/USB Tethering, Facebook contact syncing, and a few other things.. but only if there are overclocking tools too!
Does flashing a ROM eliminate myself from ICS updates(pretty sure the answer is yes)??
(6) I am currently on a stock kernel and "rom" (if u couldn't tell...) but I am rooted and using Launcher Pro (free version) and I am happy with it but out of the other launchers which is the best (fastest, easy to use, customisable)?
If I flash a custom ROM will a custom launcher be necessary or do they cone with tweaked launchers?
I had other questions but I can't think of it right now, I'll update the OP and thread if I think of anymore. Thank you so much community members for taking time to answer these questions!!!

1200 MHz is stock, 1350-1400 MHz is the highest you can get at the moment, as stability is an issue.

307MHz is stock (underclocked), 387MHz I believe is it's nominal speed, and is billed as 'overclocked' here on XDA.

You need to flash a kernel using CWM Recovery. The kernel will be rewritten every time you flash a new ROM with that ROMs kernel, if you like a specific kernel you can reflash after installing a ROM, I use Franco Kernel which is by far the most popular. Once you flash a custom ROM you won't bother with ICS system updates, custom are bleeding edge with custom tweaks and months and months earlier than OTA releases.

SetCPU is by far the best, don't be a cheapskate shell out the $2 for it. AOKP ROM has one built in, but I still use SetCPU.

Flashing a custom ROM will stop you being able to recieve OTA's, yes. But like I said earlier, they are ****. Custom ROMs are far, far better, so just keep up to date with your ROMs releases and you will always have a ROM with more features that stock OTAs. Most ROMS come with overclocked kernels, most have optimized kernels also, AOKP even has a built in overclocking program in the settings menu, which might appeal to you.

I don't know about other ROMs but AOKP comes with a custom launcher called Nova Launcher, it's essentially the stock launcher with tweaks.
wow thank you so much for your reply... i stumbled upon AOKP on droidforums before reading your reply and am actually about to flash it now - thank you for this very detailed response!!
No problem my man, there is actually a good few stable 1500MHz kernels out now and the GPU can be overclocked to 512MHz if you really want to kill your battery.
Hello, I'm new to the forums and Android in general so apologies for any dumb questions.
I recently bought a HTC Explorer (Pico). Good little phone so far.
I upgraded it to HTC Sense 4.0 Lite Build#8 Update 2 by shekhutanwar
Found here
However I'm trying to change the default clock widget but every time I download a new clock widget from the Google Play store it just puts what appears to be a shortcut on one of the home screens and it doesn't appear in the part where I can select new widgets to move to the home screen (where the default clocks appear).
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Also, I'm wondering about overclocking -
1. I have installed No-Frills CPU Control - but it only goes up to 722mhz. Is there something (preferably free) that I can use to go higher?
2. I'm thinking of putting the Cranium kernel on my phone (I've seen a guy on youtube claim an overclock of 1.3mhz with it installed). If I flash a new kernel will it stop the current OS I have installed working? And what does the Cranium kernel do in terms of overclocking?
Many thanks in advance.

cranium kernel is pll4 overclock kernel which means it is no match for pll2 overclock you are using..I used cranium kernel 1.3mhz once & got 3800mhz benchmark score & now I'm using aries kernel 3.5 & I get 4500+ score @ 767mhz..some picos are weaker than others, mine can go upto 767mhz..there's nothing you can do about it..and yes if you flash an oc kernel over a running rom it may misbehave..always do a clean install before flashing oc kernel.
