at the risk of offending you, I would not recommend setting your phone to 2ghz..I can assure you nothing great in the long term is going to happen. As for kernels give LordClockan and TalonAce a glance, I'm not 100% sure if they are 2ghz kernels but its a good jumping off point
2ghz will fry your CPU. Maybe not initially buy your phone will definitely fail prematurely. The only reasons other people do it is because they can and they probably have a newer phone for their daily. Even just overclocking a little bit can have a negative impact but not as drastic. If you insist on overclocking I wouldnt exceed 1.4.
With that said there are several Aosp kernels that will allow you to push it to the limit. Just search the dev forum.
Overclocking your cpu will not hurt it unless its running hotter than the cooling system can handle. It will cause lock ups and failure to boot. If you start overvolting it, you WILL cause premature damage to the chip itself. Optimum overclock has always been 10-20% increase for any processor. Personally id rather underclock and undervolt a little, runs cooler and less power drain.
gizmoe is right, 2ghz is a 'just cuz i can' overclock. it wont run stable at that level. its like the 8ghz overclocks you see on the intel processors using LN2 cooling lol.
2ghz is bad.
I ran my inspire at 2ghz and besides the battery practically counting down the phones was heating up and that was maybe 15 minutes. Definitely not a goods idea.
Thank you for the input and info guys.
I could over clock and undervolt on a past captivate. Is there any app you would recommended for the inspire on cm7 to do this?

Setcpu use to be the go to app but many found it to lag after waking the phone. Many have now moved on to daemon controller. From the looks of it you're using CM7 which has the function built in..I believe its menu > settings > CM settings > performance...or something like that...don't check set on boot until you know how much OC your phone can candle. If you like CM, take a look at Absolution by the Collective. They have scripts written for custom profiles for OC and UVing.

I've clocked to 2ghz a few times just to get a crazy quadrant score but that's about it. I usually keep mine somewhere in the 900mhz range with a little lite uv'ing and found that to be plenty.
2ghz can definitely be bad for your cpu..... Like to much bacon can be bad for your arteries.....

Does anybody know what it takes to overclock the GPU in the Droid Charge? I generally think that CPU overclocking is pointless, but GPU overclock should help terrain data in Google Earth. I have lagfix installed and verified working.
I am currently on the underclocked PBJT kernel. I assume I would have to migrate to the overclocked PBJT kernel, but I don't know of a way to control GPU clock from there. Ideas?
After installing the OC PBJ kernel, download and install an app called Voltage Control.

There's a difference between the CPU and GPU. Voltage control only changes the CPU clockspeed. You would have to ask imnuts if it's possible to oc the GPU.

No. If you see the FPS waver, then it is not at its FPS cap, therefore it would be pointless to raise the cap.

RAM makes everything better and it's the reason why certain apps seem to be quite slow(n64oid, gun brothers, etc). If those ****heads over at Samsung would've added more RAM this phone wouldn't have any problems, sure a better processor and a notification LED would have been nice but the only thing actually needed was the RAM.

The requirement for more Cowbell aside, does anybody if this is possible? The Galaxy Nexus will have the same GPU but clocked at 384 MHz vs 200 MHz on the Droid Charge.
I am curious if they have somehow reduced the process size or added extra cooling capacity, because that is huge difference.
In any case, it makes me think that GPU in the Charge could use a bump up without causing issues.

Holy dead thread batman! At any rate we can't increase GPU clockspeed because it's probably controlled at a hardware level, rather than variable by kernel.

I do believe the glitch kernel on the fascinate does include gpu overclocking. No idea if that could ever be implemented on the charge. If it could it would probably have to be an MTD based kernel like glitch that is currently for MUIU and Cyanogen roms.

All of my phone gpus have clockspeed dials on them.
And not to be even more of a smartass but the kernel is in fact the exact piece of software that interacts with the hardware so you kind of contradicted yourself.
It has been done with glitch kernel. Haven't seen any tw kernels that support it.

I meant that we don't have anything in the kernel that can adjust the clockspeed. I don't really know about any other phones since this is my first smartphone. I just say what I feel is correct. And yes, we may eventually be able to control it through an AOSP kernel, but we don't have that right now, so I don't think it's relevant information.

Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches?
I came from the Fascinate and the Glitch Kernel with CM7 was really rocking. If we ever get GPU overclocking it would very likely come with the same combo or a Glitch CM9 combo either of which is a long way off.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like what we would need for this to work is a working ASOP kernel, thus we would need an official Gingerbread OTA update first (maybe not 100% necessary, but it should be easier?) in order to base the kernel on?
Even with a working ASOP kernel, I assume that it would have to be specially modded to allow GPU control.
Not that I expect CM7 or CM9, I'm pretty happy with the latest leak, but it seems that CM7 or CM9 would more or less be a requirement for this to work? I hear that MIUI is not in development for the Charge because the lack of LTE in China.
Keep in mind that the Charge is my first smartphone so I'm sort of a nube.
Big thanks to the devs who turned this phone from crap into gold!
Hi.
I a speed freak! If there is something I hate, is lag.
I therefore thought of using a better kernel for my G2x.
As I understand, some kernels can OC the cpu. Wow. That's cool, first of all.
Second - any conclusions about this? Is it safe? Does it really make a difference (i don't game on my G2x)?
THANKS!
Since you obviously don't know how to use the search function, I'll just tell you that it is perfectly safe to install a kernel and constantly run it at 1.5 Gh.
Go buy setcpu from the market to set your processor speed at Max, and leave it there. All the time. No matter what.

Haha, good answer..Or you can go and download CPU master for free. =)... But honestly overclocking is not good
There's no real speed difference when overclocking install a custom kernel but don't overclocking it its a waste of battery
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
risks? yes. it kills your battery faster, and battery life will drop. by battery life, i mean the amount of recharge/discharge cycles it normally will allow will drop.
pros? makes your phone much faster. and no its not a placebo. if you bump up your kernel from 1ghz to 1.5ghz, thats obviously a speed increase. how can it not be faster.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
But also the risk at a constant 1.5 of overheating and burn out of the processor.
if you're a noob and don't know exactly what OC is, don't do that.
it can kill your battery and processor much faster, make you're phone unstable and accidentally overheat and burn out your processor, if you have a constant OC
processor life is worth the wait imo
I oc mine tops 1.2 and its as fast as it needs to be for my needs. I also bump up the minimal speed to about 500-800 cuz our g2x's should never be running that slow even when idle/screen off imo.

What do you need the phone to do if you want it to be constantly at 1.5ghz?
You can try using Faux's or Trinity kernel. Both have versions that are already UV'd upon flash. Although some chips can't handle UV. Also, I believe you have to use a different app to control your voltage.
When i play games or watch movies i set it up to 1.5ghz and since school is out and no job... im kinda on my phone for a few hours. Also, i tend to forget to turn it down.
Oh yea my bad, its cpu master. I tried -100mv to all frequencies and it'll work for like a minute then it'll freeze and have to pull out the batt.
I'll check out those other kernels but this one has really fast boot. Although, which of the other kernels gets updated the most?

Faux boots up in less than 30 seconds for me so give that a shot. Both Faux and Trinity get's updated very often. So you can't go wrong with either.

aaahh yea im starting to c wat u mean. keeping it 1.1 and its still good. got used to the old phones under 1ghz and single core.
oh, do guys have to links to the kernels? im trying to find it but its usually part of a rom.
Go in the development section and look for [kernel] in the titles and not ones that say [rom].
I'm using AOSP+ ICS ROM with the latest Matr1x kernel. Whenever I try to OC to 1460 the phone freezes and I have to pull the battery, so I'm forced to run at a maximum of 1300MHz.
Also, on a related matter, is it good practice to use SetCPU with various profiles (battery<, temp>, screenoff, charging) for various frequencies? Or should I just use AOSP+ tweaks to chose a min and max frequency and let it be?
Thanks for taking the time to answer these.

If you are using deep idle you shouldn't underclock since it causes a race-to-idle condition. In other words your battery will drain faster. If you don't use deep idle, feel free to underclock when the screen is off or whatever you want.

Just an update, Using CNA 1.4.0 and Matr1x v17, I am stable oc'ed to 1460.
this is what I am running
1)800/1460
2)gov =Ondemand
3)Scheduler =Noop
4)all voltages to +30 (used the cna rom's voltage tweaker)
I tried ShadowGun: the Leftover.. and It was flying. Of course, make sure that have enough battery or that you have a charger ready. But finally it works, try this and let me know
I can run it for 10-20 min of usage then get a freeze. I never raised the voltages before though. It seems like its working for other people. And the actual developer of Matrix Kernel is telling you to ....

Personally, I do it because I can. Seriously... I'm a geek, I love gadgets and tech and I like to tinker.
On the subject at hand, I'm still unable to OC to 1460 (ARM voltages +30, INT voltages +25) but at 1300 it runs fine, no issues whatsoever.
i can run 1460 stable all day. bigxie/matrix. just did +30 to all the voltages above 1000. deadline and lulzactive..
If you are a geek you would know about something as simple as binning chips. Do what a tech geek would do...look it up. Same thing the op should have done with his ?. Hell mathkid has a answer to his ? In the op of his kernel thread. Which is the kernel he is running

Well if you OC to high numbers your just stressing the cpu more.Knowing when you have issues is simple getting random reboots,phone getting too hot etcc.
It differs for every phone but undervolting -25 for each voltages works well.
Personally I really don't see the point overclocking to high levels like 1.4 ghz etc,Is up to individual I guess.

Yeah I have been wondering what's the point of OC to 1.4? Does it make that big of a difference in the 4g speed? And cpu speed?

Honestly, there really is no point other than for benchmarks. I, like mt3g, actually underclock the phone to something like 750-760mhz; it runs beautifully smooth.
Other than that, if you game a lot and want to maximize FPS, then overclocking would do that for you.
Doesn't have anything to do with 4g speed afaik. That's entirely reception.
Yeah 4g is about reception and tmobile simply.
I mean I had single core devices like MT4g ,SGS 4g for the most part on a day to day basis transitions to transitions theres not much diffirence in terms of speed. Now for FPS and a few other games you need that dual core.Point is there"s no need to OC a dual core phone!

Changes you might see are battery life but not that much unless you so how mess with voltage. Like other have said you know it effecting stability when its overheating, shutting down randomly, exiting program randomly.
