[help]overclocking - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

what's the best setting for overclocking to 1400mhz without having reboot.

Raise voltages until it's stable. In rare cases, you may need to lower them. If none of this works, the SoC in your phone is too imperfect to clock that high (it wasn't intended to anyway).

Thanks for sharing those infos...
May i ask for some more?:
System details [rom, kernel]
What app is the one you use on this screenshot?
what theme do you use?
Battery life with this OC?
Thanks a lot

1. rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399035
kernel : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036996
2 hold volumen down button + power button for 2 secound in same time..
3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531222
4. i think it same as 1000 mhz "OC" , because i have same voltages for 1000 and 1320 mhz..

i meant what application are you using to set the voltages... sorry i wrote the question the wrong way

Does anyone know how to enable the 1600Mhz undervolt on boot in SetCPU? I have to apply it every time I restart.

This is an excellent example of someones settings. It would be helpful if you mentioned what kind of performance/battery life you're seeing with these settings.
I just blindly set mine up the same way as in the screenies, so I'll have an idea after a day or two I think. I'll try to remember to come back and post what I've noticed.

I have been using No Frills CPU control and have no problem running Entropys daily driver which the highest clock setting by default is 1.2. I have run a lot of different ROM and I have had my best luck by setting my UC to 400. Governer performance and i/o scheduler noop or deadline. I generally get about 15 hours of battery life with this set up on most ROMs with the screen on for 2 hours. So.. if you feel the incredible need to OC by all means go for it.. but tis not necessary in my opinion.

[Q] Slow screen refresh kernel

I want to try a kernel compatible with CM9 on my i9020 with a slow refresh rate to test how many battery can be saved.
I see in bedalus kernel comparison that AniDroid Hardened is a 45fps one but seem a little out of date.
Any other kernel with 45-50fps refresh?

That's funny. I was trying to get Anidroid 45fps to work with some of the new IMM76I ROMs this morning, but had no luck.
The best battery saving kernel is still matr1x, even with nominal voltages and 56fps.
I`ll take a test with the Matrix kernel.
Have you ever compared battery drain of two version of the same kernel with the only difference of display refresh?
I`m very curious to understand how much this parameter can be helpful in a battery saving setup

Yes, as you can see in the post above, and i recently tested 56 and 50 hz versions of trinity.
It definitely affects power!
Yes, I've just readed it on the battery drain thread. I have definitely to try this.

Here's some tips for balance of speed and battery life! (Works very well)

First of all, download an app called "Setxperia" , go to your cpu settings and set your governor to ondemand, and threshold to 40 (This gives responsiveness and speed comparable to higher end phones such as my galaxy s2). Second, download an app called "Deep sleep battery saver" , set the preset on any you want (I recommend strong) , set your screen on and off delay to 5 seconds. For battery discharge settings, set it to 10% , for recharge settings, press ignore. (Doing this compensates for power the low threshold uses) and there you go, done! Tested on my galaxy s2 first then sidekick 4g, methods work for both devices.

i just flashed a new rom and overall experience is the great
But...battery life is not that good now
going to try this today and iw ill inform you with the results

I only ever see a battery issue when I use wifi. But I might as well try this out.

O/C GPU?

Just kind of curious if it's even possible to O/C the Nexus 5 GPU. My previous device was a Note 2 and that could be O/C'd twice its stock XD.

its possible. but you wont see a difference in performance(except more battery drain). we are limited in fps to 60fps. the nexus 4 gpu is/was overclocked as well, until people started to realize that it made no difference.
Fair enough.

Just an example.
But just as simms22 said, not visual advantage. I actually underclock to (potentially save power)

i underclock it slightly as well, 389mhz
Over clocking a GPU without a dedicated heatsink is just stupid.

What's your PCMARK score...true battery/performance benchmark

Since I see so much Ignorant in the Battery thread, I like to point out (rant) some things..
1. A person 6 hour of Screen On Time usage is different from person to person.
2. Temperature can have a great affect on battery life.
3. Signal strength can have a great affect on battery life.
So with that in mind, I suggest everyone try to do a PC Mark bench, it is fair and give people a much better idea of what of what they should be getting. To do this test here are the few settings you need to set
1. BRIGHTNESS AT 23-25% (EYEBALL IT)
2. Wifi on
3. do not disable Mobile data or sync
4. Clear all RAM before start
below are the CONTROL numbers from a stock rom (pictures are from greenbot.com)

Below is my stat, using arter kernel and foreverloco rom. (I DO UNDERVOLT MY KERNEL)
Is this ok? Running skyhigh 2.1 and darthstalker v4 rom. A57 cores @ 2.4ghz and gpu @ 852mhz with a -75mv uv all accross the board.
I ll post my battery result as soon as i can, meanwhile here s my previous battery result i got a few days ago... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63851201
Here s my pcmark battery score too. I started it from 90% after already using the phone for a whole hour (sot of about 1h6mins)
ran pcmark again with skyhigh 2.3 ...running at 2.4ghz a57...
