[Q]

Im running the Carbon Rom with the matrix 11 cfs kernel just wondering.. how do they make 1460mhz stable? do they lower the voltage? and if so how do i go about dropping the voltage and what is a safe range because its at 1450mv when i overclock it freezes and reboots.. sorry for all the questions lol

I been asking the same.
On my phone any oc over 1.3 freezes my phone

Raise voltage to 1475mV...

but would'nt more voltage be worse?

Nope haha, it will def make it more stable

More voltages = better stability
some kernels try to undervolt as low as possible but some phones don't like that much UV so you have to manually raise voltages =]
Edit: If your uncomfortable about messing with the voltages you should go ahed to the Trinity thread and flash TUV OR TEUV =] there UV'd to a safe extent.

Every phone is different, might not be able to do it. Simms can run a 1.6 ghz

I sometimes think that Simms has a super Nexus or something my phone can go upto 1.5.xx

Thanks man.. I heard about the Trinity Kernel and looked through the threads but couldn't find it.

[Q] Have you managed to OC to 1460MHZ and keep stability?

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.

Raise all voltages by +30 across the board

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.

Can I do this via AOSP+ tweaks and still use SetCpu to OC and UC? Are they conflicting apps? (Deep idle OFF)
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

I would recommend just using setcpu

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 ....
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
AOKP (Build 25)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy 7)
OC 800/100 (Lionheart)
Live OC (105)

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

SetCPU

Anyone here use SetCPU with their device? Notice a big difference?
Care to share your configurations as well?

What kernel are you using?? if you use faux123's kernel than he has fuax clock specially made for his kernel.

Unless u wanna uc you don't need that CPU app. I used system tuner.

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.

voltages?

Hey I'm having troubles upping my voltages by 25 i'm on gummy nexus can someone explain how to do it? thanks
I wen't to voltage control in the settings do I increase each one by 25? Also the reboots only occur when I have my phone in the wall and i'm trying to use it.

Use nstools from the market. Up the arm voltages by 25 leave the int voltages alone.

Didn't even see it! Ha ha! Glad its working for you man.
Look up stock voltages for nexus s and you can see then where everything is undervolted and what you can do.

[Q] Default max freq?

I just installed Frnaco Kernel 32 build..
when i opened up the app thats also by him i found that the maximum frequency of my all four cores was 1.5ghz ??
can someone please clarify that?
besides is the 'hotplug' setting set to ON by default or we have to change it?
and if i dont make any changes at all just install the kernel,will it make any difference in the way the CPU works?
I am more than satisfied with the way the Nexus works on stock just a little more customization and screen color tuning is all i seek for!
PS i have been through the thread its a long one i did read quite a few but since i am new this query of mine may be stupid enough to even be there so posting it here!

Hi,
Just a question: isn't it 2,26 Ghz (2265600)?

Is it? Maybe. Thought it was just under 2.3 but I don't have stock frequencies so I was going off what I thought was "memory"
Either way though, not 1.5

Yes for sure
This is rounded up for 2,3 Ghz, 2,26 or 2,29 Ghz won't make a big difference. In the Nexus 5 I think it's 2.26.
EDIT: I have 2,26 Ghz in stock kernel

thermal throttling is when cpu reduces the clock speed to prevent overheat! right? (its a question)
