I'm looking for a kernel that will let me overclock and also undervolt. And I want to be able to set profiles, so I'd like to be able to select my low-power profile (undervolt, 1GHz) and, say, a performance profile (normal volts, 1.2GHz).
Any suggestions?
Terrible! We need more info, I see in your signature you are running cm nightly 225! Not everyone is on the actual site. you have 2 choices Faux or Morfic pick one try it out.

+1 you have to try them out all phones aren't created equally and aren't as stable. use pimp my cpu to set those profiles, its free on xda
I only want to try out the ones that meet my requirements.
I'm already using SetCPU.

Just installed Trinity ELP. SetCPU crashed with that kernel so I bought Pimp My CPU.
1.1GHz isn't quite enough for me for some HD videos.

If I have CM7 #54, do I need a special kernel or not?
SetCPU is not detecting the frequencies for me
I am using CPUMaster but I have the free version only
What is the best software to overclock automatically?
I also want profiles (Battery temp, battery %, screen off...)
In Quadrant I got 3000 points with 1.5Ghz
Now I only need to find a way to overclock it and have all the profiles and boot overclock work right out of the box
Thanks a lot
Sooooo you over clocked to it to 1.5, but yet you still need to find a way to do it?? Read..... all the answers are in this very section....
Oh by the way wrong section to post.

ok first set cpu will not be able to oc for you. use pimp my cpu you should be able to find it if you do a search. second if you want to oc use faux's kernel for that.

I used SetCPU before on my OptimusT, and it was actually working pretty good, BUT NOT ON LGE STAR. For now, the best overlocking app for LGE STAR is PimpMyCPU WITH CUSTOMIZED KERNEL.
With FR and Faux's kernel, you can easily get 4000+ on Quadrant.
With GB and its own kernel, I think we just get like 3000+

I thoroughly tested OC on CM with different kernels. I got the best results with the Trinity kernel. My highest recorded Quadrant score was 4920 and I averaged 4690 over 10 trials with that configuration.

I'm new to the G2x, but not rooting, specifically. I've rooted the phone via NVFlash, and installed the latest Weapon X. I'm pretty much just looking for some general information on which kernels to use. I'm looking for a kernel that will let me change governors. For some reason, SetCPU would not let me select a governor after flashing faux's kernel. I'm not sure which CPU settings to use in SetCPU. I selected the nVidia Tegra 2 as a setting, but it would only let me underclock the CPU, and not select any governors.
A bit of help?
Not sure but our CPU doesn't use governers or something to that effect.

I see. I just came over from the EVO yesterday, where there are so many different governors between stock ones and custom implimentations by devs over there. Now what about being able to overclock in SetCPU?
I'm sorry for the noob question but I really don't understand voltage terms and what's it for and how it work I was wandering if anyone could explain it to me?
In the past I would use set CPU and create a few profiles and would be done with it but I been reading on the forums about setting voltages higher and lower for better performance.
Currently i'm on eagles blood 2.3.5 ROM, trinity t15 (fun) kernel.
Any help would be much appreciated.

It's to save power and get better battery life. You lower the amount of power the chip gets at various clockspeeds until it starts not working correctly, then back up to a voltage at which the chip is stable at that clockspeed. Some chips can handle lower voltages than others while still working correctly.
Overclocking = get better performance
Undervolting = get better battery life
Both can lead to phone instability if you set the values to extremes.
Thank you for the info

It all depends on the kernel your using and if it supports UV, it should say if it does in the name of the kernel tho(just look for uv ) Setcpu 2.2.4 will allow you to change voltages only if your kernel/rom support it.
you can safely undervolt -50 -75 at most all the way up to 1.0ghz-1.1ghz i wouldn't undervolt past that.

So what your saying is I can use setcpu to change the voltage?I just recently changed kernels I saw that option available but I didn't understand how to use it.under voltages it shows all the GHz underneath it it shows 0.From here what do I do?, do I go too each GHz profile and -50 from all of it?

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 ....

AOKP (Build 25)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy 7)
OC 800/100 (Lionheart)

It still amazes me how so many people that ask about overclocking have no frigging idea at all how cpus/gpus in general are binned etc.
I have a question. Why do you guys overclock that much? It might be snappy but battery life is just bad and it just doesn't worth it in my opinion.

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

if using the Original Romracer kernel....there is no over clocking or undervolting. so the only thing you can really change is the scaling.
so if you want speed, set it to preformance which will force both cpus on line AT ALL TIMES. but will drain the batter faster other than that. there is not much you can do with a stock kernel. which is what romracers kernel is.

Hi,
I'm on TPC V3 with Da_G 0.43 Kernel.
I've one profile in SetCpu which is "screen off: max 192 min 192 with smartassv2 governor". I'm a light user and my record is fifty hours with a battery life.
I can't say if SetCPU has a lot to do with this but the smartassv2 governor helped a lot for sure.
I am rooted with the stock ROM and find that setcpu makes my phone lag more with Faux Kernel. When I delete the app, everything runs much more smoothly.

Try using FauxClock with his kernel, it's an app designed for his kernel specifically, and works great.
I'm at 1.2GHz (battery life) with a 87.5mV underclock on all steps, runs like a bauss.
I will admit, Da_G's kernel is miles ahead when it comes to performance, but it SoD's way too much on my phone, unfortunately.
