I have Aloysius 2.1 running ROM 2.1
it has a build in overclock using
SetCPU for Root Users [1.5.4] 05/24/2010
it is overclocked to 710 max when demand is placed on it
245 min when there is no demand
if in another rom (say damagecontrol rom) the overclock program setcup 1.5.4 suggests a maximum of 528 for the Hero - not 710 (as is built into the Aloysius ROM.
Question is - will this 710 overclock speed hurt the sprint HERO processor?
currently - one day of trial - this rom runs very fast but i do not want to hurt the phone
clarify the overclock question
I have a SPirnt HERO running Aloysius 2.1
it has a build in overclock using SETCPU
I assume it is SetCPU for Root Users [1.5.4]
it is overclocked to 710 max when demand is placed on it
245 min when there is no demand
if in another rom (say damagecontrol rom of resh rom) the overclock program SETCPU 1.5.4 when installed by me suggests a maximum of 528 for the Hero - not 710 (as is built into the Aloysius ROM)
Question is - will this 710 overclock speed hurt the sprint HERO processor?

Our MSK chip set has been placed in several phones and over clocked in several phones. As far as I or any of the devs are aware, it has never hurt it. 710mhz is well in the bounds of "safe". I think toast had it up to almost 800 before he started having big issues.
That being said, you are placing extra strain on the processor - that means it won't last as long as it would normally. At least in theory.
You drive your car 25 mph like a grandma all the time, you get 300,000 miles out of it. You drive it 500 mph all the time, it'll only last 2,000 miles. YMMV Pun intended.

hi I was wondering how high you can over clock your hero. I have to 758 mhz and it is perfectly stable. Is there any thing i can use to over clock it more.
768 is the highest I've seen.

I've heard that 710 is really the highest you can reliably run, I wouldn't risk the damage just to go that little bit higher.

Thats all I have seen to. I did here that you could get it a little over 900 MHz.
LOL, it would probably catch on fire at 900.

I'm sorry, but I don't believe this.
Mine is closked to 691 and it totally stable. If I push to 710 it starts to become less stable.
Can you show us screenprints ?
Im running 2.2. ShootMe doesn't work on this rom, go download and test for yourself.
im also running 2.2. if you wanna try it out for yourself download ([Rom] Darchdroid v2.7 "KangSlayer" | Complete, OC'd, MMS, Camera, Everything!!) I am at 768 MHz. I use setcpu, profiles. when the screen is off its at 518 MHz.

Mine is stable at 787 also.. Ever hero is different.. Iv also been running OC since the day toastcfh figured it out over 2 months ago. I have ran 768mhz min and max for an entire day with no problem (i was benchmarking and forgot). Some people cant even run 710mhz without there phone becoming unstable.
Also 768mhz is the clock speed most kernels are maxed at cuz the highest clock speed the hero can be clocked to with a benefit is 768mhz (darch will include 787 in his kernels sometimes). 787mhz will actually give the same or worse results as 768 because it, in a sense, clogs the CPU. We cant raise our FSB of the cpu.
Toastcfh, the reason who got us OC, has actually pushed it as far as he could go. He got way higher then 787. But like i said, there is not benefit of it.
Our phones wont blow up or stop working because the speeds are high. If you keep the temps down you really dont have anything to worry about, temps are the main reason why OC will kill the life of a CPU.
Awesome Information, Thanks.
Hello i have a HTC G1 with Android 1.6 i downloaded SetCpu 2.10(newest)
but it becomes not higher ?
I tried also custom frequence it still not work

Did you bother to stop and consider that maybe 528 is that chip's maximum frequency?

i saw in youtube many people who get the g1 to 650 MHZ
and there is a video he got his g1 to 850 MHZ wow but i cant do it why?
the kernel.
you're using a kernel with a max freq of 528.
don't be tempted and believe everything you see on youtube. ;-) an 850 kernel isn't likely to run stable enough and get you decent uptime.

what is a kernel ?(sorry im a noob
how can i flash my kernel..?
The kernel is core part of any operating system. You will need to find an android build (read: ROM) that incorporated a kernel that will allow you to crank your MHz up to the desired level.
I also recommend that you be careful when overclocking. I am sure you already know you run the risk of frying your phone.
The maximum stable overclock I've been able to get is 614Mhz (with the ocassional random reboot) and 592Mhz completely stable. How high you can clock your processor is completely dependent on what kernel you're running. I'm using CM6.1 right now and the kernel limits the clock to 614Mhz max. I think about 640Mhz is the highest you can go without making it unusable, but you might have a hard time finding a current kernel that lets you overclock that high.
And anyways if you're looking for more performance the CPU isn't the bottleneck. It's the RAM. You should look into swap or compcache to get more performance out of your G1.
592 has been my best stable speed as well with Froyo and now with GingerYoshi 595 is fastest stable for me. Can clock higher but then random reboots and fc's
How far is your Galaxy s stable?
mine just hits the 1.1GHZ, beyond that only crashes no matter which voltage i Use. please Use the poll so we have a good picture of what the average galaxy s is capable of..
also comment which version of SGS you are using and 8gb/ 16 Gb etc..

PS this thread should be moved to General
had mine at 1.54ghz running MIUI with tk glitch kernel.
was amazingly fast, but my phone got hot quick, i dont like OC'ing i feel it may do more harm than good in the long run.
others may and will disagree but thats my opinion on it
Mine with 1.3GHz OC and some Undervolt is perfectly stable.....

Agree with the chef ...
Although I can overclock to 1540MHz it does get hot and Im sure it will do damage in time ..
1300MHz is a great overclock ...
It will be interesting to see what my SGS 2 can be safely overclocked to
1.2 GHz seems ok for me - with UV
Doesn't really get hot.
Running mine @ 1440 MHz with MIUI but i think I can go higher if I want . I have the 8 GB version
1.3 and very stable and with great performance both q score caffiene mark and in daily use
Which voltage are you using?
Mine seems to freeze on voltages above the 1.3V,
above the 1.2 GHZ always freezes. I,m using darkeys 9.5 Rom.
someone some advice which rom is the best for OC, (just for benchmarking) for once.

Mine can handle up to 1.3-1.4ghz
Im getting stable speeds of 1.7ghz. Im on watercooling though..
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
1.4ghz is my max for full stability. 1.5ghz works fine (no reboots), but the CPU occasionally gives an invalid result during calculations, e.g. during benchmarks like linpack, results can sometimes be inaccurate; 1.44ghz also seemed to work, but I picked 1.4ghz max for longevity/reliability.
UV Values are:
100mhz - 200mV UV (750mV)
200mhz - 150mV UV (800mV)
400mhz - 100mV UV (950mV)
800mhz - 75mV UV (1125mV)
1ghz - 50mV UV (1200mV)
1.2ghz - 50mV UV (1300mV)
1.3ghz - 0mv UV (1400mV)
1.4ghz - 50mV UV (1400mV)
Max UV were found by starting from 100mhz Max frequency, decreasing UV until stable for 5 minutes of software decoding of 720p MKV, and then increasing Max frequency one step. Occasionally the previous step UV needed to be decreased by 25mV to obtain a stability at the next frequency step.

Mine is stable at 1.5 Ghz with a 200mv undervolt, but only if I select it as a single frequency.
For multiple frequencies, I was stable at 1.4Ghz on an earlier kernel, but it's slightly unstable now... I'll probably try tweaking the governor.
I'm on a i9000m using tk-glitch's V9D-VC and CM7 #11 build.
By the way, shouldn't this thread be in general?
I am on MIUI v3 and CM7_SGSMTD_platypus-kernel_20110522_r0_quorra-prer11_test4-r2 kernel.
I don't use undervolt settings and 1.2 Ghz is fine for me; above values generally don't work stable.
By the way, 1.2 ghz is almost enough for all games and operations, I did not run into that pushing apps for high oc's.
Regards.
1.44GHz, extremely smooth and stable!
Never seen an option to go above 1.54, but 1.54 works flawlessly so I've chosen 1.5 in the poll. (16gb i9000)

It's not the ROm it's the KERNEL who can oc, i adviise using XAN, hardcore kernels in 2.2. or gto's ginger kernel at 2.3 they are stable and 1280 i guess it's the limit not to warm up
But a questin what send me an undervoltage config, to 1300 if the gpu games work for someone at 1300mhz

these phones uses the same processor but on different frequencies.
so my question is: is it safe to use daily the cpu at 1.5ghz of DHD ?
Some phones can handle a higher o/c than others. I've been running mine at 1.2ghz for months now with no issues. I can increase that but I've never felt the need, although many others do ;-)
Yeah, i think 1.5ghz wouldnt be any problem for most/all devices.
With my Milestone back then, which had 550 mhz, i personally was running between 800-1000 mhz, alot others were running even 1200 mhz there.
But on DHD; i personally would do (max!) 1.2 or 1.3 ghz, because this is absolutely enough for most Roms to be smooth.

the max i overclock for daily basis is 1.2Ghz but when i tried 1.8Ghz back when lee released his nutter kernel my phone froze.
But i did read somewhere the cpu can be overclocked to 1.5Ghz without any issues but over that people do get some problems.
No!
Using any CPU frequency that is not default ( underclocked or overclocked ) requires testing and manipulating the various variables. The CPU needs to be in sync with the GPU and the other parameters. Needs modifications in the kernel itself. The device is not made to run at those frequencies. You will burn your device, sooner or later.
i am fairly new to rooting phones. i just installed cyanogen 7 on my htc hero. works much faster than the stock. had heard that you can overclock the cpu. i downloaded CPUmaster free and lets me clock cpu to 768MHz. have been doing some research on this and have come across a few things. so really just one question; 1) what is the fastest you can clock the cpu with it still being stable?
help with this would be very much appreciated!
Depends on a variety of factors and every Hero is different. Depends on the ROM your running, kernel, etc. You can play around with capped and uncapped kernels but no one can really give you an exact # but you..u'll just have to try tinkering with the settings. If your wise you will just select one of the governors located in Cyanogenmod Settings. I prefer SmartassV2,min. 362 max 691 its efficient and takes care of everything while prolonging the life of your battery. Also remember that overclocking for an extended period of time will overheat your phone and could cause damage, so keep an eye on the core temp while playing with ur cpu settings.

Some phones can't take more than 691, some can handle 768. I have found, for my phone, that 245/710 works great for me. I can see a marked improvement in snappiness at 710 over 691, but not really much at higher frequencies.
I used to use OnDemand as my scheduler, but with the newer .35 kernel I have liked the SmartassV2; I don't have any issues with music cutting out like i would with smartass or interactive. CM7, or most any of the roms built off of that, have the option in CM Settings to adjust both the frequency and governor so you don't need to install a 3rd party app to do so (it's under the "performance" heading). I also like to go into the spare parts app and set my animations to fast; that's just me though. I think the new CM7 builds have Jaybob's .35 kernel now instead of the .29. I have not seen an uncapped kernel that goes beyond 768 in a long time. There was one that jasonmaloney compiled that did 806 (I think) but that was pulled by him as it isn't good for the phone. just test it out and see what you like with what you have installed on your phone. Every phone is different even though they are the same.
