Any kernels yet that allow overclocking? - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

I'd like to overclock my Pixel, which I understand is dependent on the kernel supporting it. Has one been released yet that'll allow overclocking? I've run both elementalx and franco so far.

Just installed version 1.00. Thanks will there be voltage control in the future? Or GPU overclocking?

But the Pixel never really lags or slow down.

You're right, it doesn't. It's great and I love it. But I'm an overclocker and benchmarker and like pushing hardware to the limit. Including my phone.

What's the best ROM and kernel combination?

I have the nexus s 4G. I'm most worried about speed and battery life!

I think i'll be getting the TUV Trinity kernel... now which rom?
GPA17 with the included kernel. Pete's stuff is always amazing and this is no exception.

All ROMS and Kernel work differently on every phone ... some people have problems running Trinity and some people have problems running Ma1trix(I hope i spelt it correctly) anyways i don't mean to offend any of the devs but it depends on phone to phone
My Nexus runs smoothly with Nscollab .41 with TrinityEUV kernel (0.88 GHz) =]
Also Bugless Pete's GPA17 with the stock kernel which is btw Pete's own =]
and finally MIUI with TrinityUV android flavored kernel (1.0 Ghz) =]
to find out which one works best on your device you have to install and check them yourself
Hope i helped
There are no "problems" with Matr1x.
You just need to tweak the voltages and find something that works for you....
As a fresh NS user, I wanted something similar to stock + added notification bar toggle + kernel with BLN & Voodoo sound. Found this combo with TSM Pool party 1.3 ROM, which is based on Pete's work and his kernel. Works excellent:]
CM7 RC1 + T144 or TEUV if I feel like saving battery

Very true, I initially thought my phone doesnt work with matrix, Then i figured how to undervolt my phone and change profiles in set CPU, Now phone works great with matrix.
Really like TEUV though, but found it lagging a bit in high graphics games,.
Yeah Haha, have you tried version 7.5?

idk, it feels sluggish sometimes, even when i find good settings, when i update it kinda goes back to being sluggish. sluggish is good tho. better than stock

Battery saving?

There is no best kernel. All the threads asking receive the same answer, that is that it all comes down to personal preference. Try them all and see what you like best.

yow dude! so based on your experience, which kernel do you prefer?
I tried Trinity, drains my battery faster than usual.
I've been using Matr1x, but some people have had issues. That's why I really can't recommend anything other than that you try a few and see what works best for you.
No issues with Matr1x dude...

I didn't say there were anything wrong with the kernel (I wouldn't use it myself if that were my belief) , I simply stated the fact that some people have run into some issues (S.O.D., etc.).

Sleep of Death, phone goes into sleep mode and freezes. Raising the Voltages helps.
I have tried every kernel out there & have had trouble in some form with all of them, except for the Glados Kernel. Rock solid stable, & a nice balance of performance / battery life. Using NStools allows you to get the most out of the kernel. I use it with live OC set at 105, & the lazy governer. This is what works well for me, it may differ for your phone.

Thats a adventure you have to take alone
in all seriousness you gotta try out Trinity =]
Check out the kernels in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283031
The nice thing about it is the availability of the 1320MHz frequency (if needed), yet you can run an undervolted setting most of the time and enjoy great battery life.
Most other kernels seem to be either fast or good on battery, here you get both in one package. Give it a test drive!

I'm using Trinity now with 1.54 OC. It's snappy but drains battery fast.
A millionth time I've seen such a thread, and a millionth time I say the same - "Its your own personal choice..."
Not angry or such but just trying to make a joke...
I'm pretty much happy with the Matr1x Kernel, Netarchy dies on me, GLaDos is pretty good too, Trinity dies on me too...
by the way, MIUI has its own kernel? When you flash MIUI, what kernel do you get in default?
how about CM7?

Whys it all the way up :O i mean OC'd just install TUV and use LiveOC 110 =/
It'll just OC it to about 1110 Mhz + 10% clock increase of the GPU

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.

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.

[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!

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)

Need Help Getting Past 50,000 in AnTuTu Benchmark!

Anyone have some tips to get me past 50,000 points in AnTuTu benchmark? The highest i've managed so far is 48,216 points. Just need another 1,784 points and then i would be at the big 50,000 points milestone! I'm currently running the stock CyanogenMod 11S ROM (Version 44S) with AK Kernel 074, overclocked to 2.9GHz. Before anyone suggests it, i have already tried running the test in performance mode but i still can't get my score any higher!
So what else could i do to raise my score further? Any help would be most appreciated!

Use zram too! or swap!
Use a hexadecimal editor like Game Killer (carefully) and edit the score, if you like to break score milestones and know how to edit simple adresses.
This way is not recommended.

I can do it easily just by overclocking with Boeffla kernel. Try it.

Impressive! I looked at that kernel on both the XDA thread and the official website, but there doesn't appear to be a version of this kernel which currently supports CM11S 44S. Guess i'll just have to wait until they release an update before i can try it! This is my record so far on AK Kernel clocked at 2.9GHz.
