Go to ROM manager and download OC

It's not there anymore.

Yea I wonder why iit was pulled. Worked great for me...

Thankfully, if it was already downloaded, it's still in your clockworkmod/ folder. Rejoice, those who have already downloaded it.

Direct download link is in that thread.

been running it at 1.4 since last night and loving every minute of it. runs greats, not one problem..

Found out through twitter that the dev does not want anyone to distribute his kernel through the forums. However, if you ask nicely then you may receive.

Follow him on Twitter and go through his tweets. He has a link for his kernels there. Even one for his 1.8ghz kernel

Interesting. I'm not seeing much of a difference. Quadrant scores went from 1611 on adryn's 1.8 kernel to 1789 on the 1.5ghz. Seems very low for both. Wonder what's giving me issues...
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App

I get 2200+ on quadrant at 1.5ghz.. and 2700+ at 1.8ghz using Drod's kernels..
Can't wait to try his 1.9+ kernels soon

This is absolute insanity, I can't believe this but I was running this kernel to the max (1.5ghz) and the performance was insane. 2200 - 2500 quadrant scores (even one 2532). Well, drained my battery to 15% after about 3 hrs using "ondemand" scaling. So I flashed adrenelyn's 1.9, phone ran perfectly smoothly but I wasn't happy anymore with kernel scores in the 17's and 18's. So I reflashed drod's kernel and have been running at 1209 mhz (2064, 2216, 2092 quads.), phone is still super responsive and it is now 2 in the morning, I have been running it since roughly2pm and I have 37% battery left 12 hrs. later (ondemand). I have been using the crap out of this phone: 2.5 hrs. phone calls, 1.5 web time, texts all day, followed twitter, did some theme changes. I found my go to kernel for now.

Tried the 1.8 but SetCpu widget kept reporting 1.8 even after I slowed it down. Going into the app I could tell it was follow my settings. Went back to 1.5. Temp to high for me even though stable. I might try conservative setting if widget reports right.

You have to disable the Perflock disabler in SetCPU options and you can downclock it

where is this 1.8ghz kernel?

If the 1.8 is the same as the 1.5 you don't need to disable Perflock. It has already been been disabled.
Edit: I just read in drod2169 Twitter that in order to lower the clock speed on the 1.8 you do need to disable the Perflock...sorry.

You have to have a kernel that allows overclocking.

Are you using a custom kernel??
If you are use pimp my cpu to oc
G2X

Also, in case you didnt know.. Kernels may state 1.5Ghz and such but that doesnt mean YOUR phone will be able to go that high. Every device is different so every device's has a different max frequency.

Set CPU currently doesn't work with out kernels. You must install one of the OC/UV kernels from the development section and use the pimp my cpu app to overclock
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Ok, that makes sense I'm using the EB 1.04F trinity kernel +48 and was using pimp my cpu and I can overclock just fine there but I wanted to try out setcpu out.
I have it over clocked @ 1.2 -50 in all frequencies and scheduler is the default one. Force Min Frequency is checked as well.
Thanks

On a side note, my g2x has been highly unstable after leaving it sit while using pimp my cpu. However, I created a .txt file with clock frequencies and I was able to use setcpu with little to no side effects. But after all, what is ocing even good for? Benchmarks... Mt4g, n1, g1, mt3g, hd2. Tried ocing on all of them and didn't see a noticeable day to day difference compared to stock frequency...

On the mt4g I was able to play dungeon defenders OCed at 1.5 without much lag. Without it the game was almost unplayable because it would lag like crazy when the graphics got too intense. But on the downside it sucked my battery dry within hours

[GUIDE] Undervolting for better battery life

Since this is a popular topic and since MSNBERG requested that i make this, i have decided to make it.
THE GUIDE TO UNDERVOLTING
What you will need:
PREFERABLY the application Tegrak OVERCLOCK PAID! can also use set cpu
TEGRAK
LOAD THE OVERCLOCK MODULE
go into the "TWEAKS" section and be sure to select DEADLINE as your scheduler!!!
you will see the option "OPTIMIZATION" go there
now you will see 5 levels to customize
ONLY LEVEL 0 CAN YOU CUSTOMIZE EVERYTHING
Now if you only want to undervolt with no overclock here is the chart you need to use ON GINGERBREAD:
UNDERVOLT SETTINGS
level0 - 1000 - 1155 - 1065 -------this level can change frequency but volts need to change as well
level1 - 800 - 1040 - 1035
level2 - 400 - 955 - 960
level3 - 200 - 835 - 950
level4 - 100 - 825 - 930
once you enter these in you can go to tegraks main menu and go into "PROFILE" and you can save your current settings or choose previous ones.
Here are some overclock values you can use for level 0
LEVEL 0 1100 1100 1090
LEVEL 0 1200 1195 1095
LEVEL 0 1300 1295 1115
LEVEL 0 1400 1315 1125
LEVEL 0 1500 1375-85 1150
LEVEL 0 1600 1400 1175-1200
***THIS WILL BE UPDATED WITH MORE INFO SOON

In my best Mr. Burns voice: Excellent!

Always wanted a undervolting guide. Nice!

:C my phone reboots with these undervolt values for some reason. I'm running Valhalla 1.1(haven't has the time to update and don't have wifi so...) and adrenaline shot X. I also have stability checker off so I'm sure that's not the issue. Its fine at first but then rebootes once I start mulititasking like listening to music, texting and getting on Facebook at the same time. Seems to work fine for everyone else so I don't get what's going on

Hi guys,
Sorry for the rookey questions, but :
1. Do I need to install TegraK kernel ? If so, before or after installing TegraK overclock ?
2. Will TegraK OC free version do, or i need the paid version ? what's the difference ?
3. ICY56 - I'm having the exact configuration you have (Valhalla 1.1 and Adrenaline ShotX) can you please explain what changes you noticed regarding battery consumption, and doesn't it affect your phone responsiveness, stability and performance ?
Thanks,
Itzik.

Answers
1) Tegrak will work fine with valhalla, most (if not every) custom rom has the needed kernel already.
2) You need the paid version because free version only allows overclock up to 1.3 you cant adjust anything else.
3) I can't answer as I'm not set up the same, but from my understanding you shouldn't see any negative affects, just increased battery life.

Every time I try to undervolt my phone. It reboots constantly. Even with ICBINB KJ1. Scheduler is set to deadline and governor is set to ondemand. What am I doing wrong?

Well I haven't noticed a decrease in performance and stability. The phone actually feels the exact same. As for bettery life, I can't really comment on that yet since I'm in the process of recalibrating my battery and I haven't been on UV long enough to say but so far battery life seems to be a little better

Even if I increase voltage it still freezes and then restarts phone @ 1600mhz
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

I've had 1664 mhz before stable. It can ne done, every phone will be different with what voltages work. experiment a little. But I wouldn't go to high, don't want a $500 paperweight.
@ 1.3 GHz, this phone its rock solid, so anything higher is over kill imo.

[Q] Overclocking

Ok so i was wondering if overclocking this phone is a good idea? i am probably gonna use about 8-900 mhz anywayz. I know its not the most expensive device out there but still its pretty expensive for me xD. So i was wondering if the overclocking it would effect the phone in some way.
thx

I don't feel it really speeds up the phone too much and if you compared a phone with 900 MHz processor as standard with our phone overclocked to 900 MHz processor, the standard 900 MHz processor would be a lot faster. I hope this makes sense. I didn't explain it very well.
For example, compare a HTC desire to our phone overclocked to 1 GHz. The HTC would still be a million times faster.
Anyway, a non-overclocked phone is still quite smooth and i have no problems with it. If you want to overclock, you will get a nice little boost but not a really big boost.

You should set your main profile to max of 800 as its the safest for your cpu although i overclock to 1366/1400 when im gaming . Its faster than not overclocking(for daily usage for me not sure abt other people)

You can look under the index list for the kernel threads of fugumod ultra(OC to 1366) or the official fugumod thread(can OC to 800Mhz) or the G3mod thread(OC to 1200Mhz)

How do I enable cpu1?

I have a Skyrocket phone, running Sky ICS... and I've been trying to find out why cpu1 is off most of the time.
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpuidle/state0/time = 534677824
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpuidle/state1/time = 0
When I echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
And then cat the file back, the setting is zero.
How do I set it online? Is it possible?
Thanks in advance,

I flashed the a different kernel with Sky-ics and I use CPU tuner it shows I'm running both cpu's. I believe the ics update was to enable both cpu's anyway but then again I'm new to this and still in the process of learning haha give cpu tuner a shot hope any of this was helpful.

CPU...
Most of the time you probably don't want the other CPU running. 1 CPU is more than enough for most apps and tasks. I know Instigators Kernel basically shuts down one of the CPU's unless you need it. I am sure if you updated to the kernel in seans thread it also mods the CPU Governor. ICS by default has both CPU's going all the time.
So having 1 of the CPU's off is one of the benefits of modding. It saves precious battery. If you get a program such as CPU Spy, you should hover around 192 mhz when using the phone for light tasks. 1200+ is more graphic intense. If you start doing video and games, CPU #2 kicks in to help...
To change this setting on most roms, goto system settings>Performance>Processor and change the Governor type to one that suits your needs. I use Instigators Kernel with the Badass Script and I get AWESOME battery life and sit on 192 mhz most of the time and notice NO DIFFERENCE in the speed of the phone...
Hope that helps... if so, give me a Thanks...

If you punch CPU 1 in its kiniggits it will fire right up
