Hi guys,
I've searched the forums and unfortunately have found nothing about the title.
Is there a known or upcoming overclock for the Galaxy S on Froyo 2.2? Obviously the Kernel Overclock below is only for Eclair but Froyo with 1.2GHz would be sweet!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746343
Thanks!
the thing is we all use the samsung kernels and the froyo kernel is not released because firmwares aren't official so they're not forced to distribute the sources (leaks = mostly illegal - it's even breaking gpl)
i suppose u could get a 2.1 kernel to boot somehow, its probably mostly the init ramdisk which changes (?)
Until they get stable setcpu that works even with stock kernels overclocking is next to useless

How about now?
There is just one topic on this. And if you read atleast a couple of last msges you would know.
Just curious, is that overclock means drain more battery power? Then I guess it not good for smartphone isn't it?

Geeeezzz..... People here who want to overclock do not care about battery drain.
In most cases (use the Nexus One as a good example) they modified the kernel to undervolt to acceptable levels, and they were still able to overclock to 1.2Ghz stable. I saw no change in battery use when I had my Nexus One and overclocked with this UV method.
Since few days I am trying OverclockWidget and I try to set the CPU at 1.2GHz.
Each time i set the value, it put only until 1GHz.
I know it is a stupid question but does stock Froyo ROM (JPA) can go further than 1.2GHz for overclocking ? Because I don't know if it is because of the ROM or because of this widget which doesn't work well...
PS: I have a Samsung Galaxy S I9000.

Stock Froyo do not support OC/UV.
You need a specific kernel for that, go into DEV section, there's some here.
Carefully read every post in the desired thread before proceeding with the one of your choice.
Hello,
My phone -xperia x8 white e15i
Kernel - Stock
It don't matter what Rom I use I can only OC till 691 MHz at 710mhz my.phone freeze and reboot.
also I get reboot time to time on 691.
I heard that very x8 should atleast be stable at 710
my question is.
Do I get a higher stable frequency if I use a different module other than Dix's???
I came across a module which offers a higher frequency .... search for better overclock you will find the thread.....so will I get a higher frequency? ?? using the other module???
I USED THE SEARCH BUTTON BEFORE POSTING.
so don't yell at me. : )
Help
I'm not too sure about this one since I'm a part noob much like you but have you tried flashing a different kernel such as Alfs? linuxxd is really good but doesn't allow overclocking as I found out with the same problem as yourself Sorry I meant stock kernel doesn't allow overclocking ...
If I helped you please answer my question on a new thread I made
It's up to your phone. Your processor can go till that frequency without freezing. Other X8s can go higher. It doesn't depend on the ROM or kernel.
A custom kernel allows better overclocking most of the time. When I was on stock kernal the highest I could get to was 710Mhz before rebooting. With a custom kernel I can get to 787Mhz before rebooting.

@guys above thanks for answering ...
but I still don't get the answer ....
anyways if I change my kernel then I will be changing the software part only .... so how can it increase my CPU potential .. ?????

dependent on yes. with stock kernel to kernel naa 691 Mhz 806 big diference
what about.a different module??? it can increase potential? ??

You need to understand that the stock kernel is not designed for overclocking, it's only possible with modules for stock kernel.
You can try the other module but I doubt it'll be any improvement, if you want better overclocking you really should install a custom kernel.

help please can't overclock my LG 4x to CPU 1.6 or 1.7 ........ my phone Freezing I don't know why do every think ( root / unlock boot loader ) try Most of the rooms and kernels ( wipe cache, data, format system partition, wipe dalvik ) !!!!!!!! :crying:

You need custom kernel for that, check Iodak, Laufersteppenwolf, cyanodak, copycat, Mourta etc.

You're not helping at all.
Answer the questions below;
Did you undervolt? What kernel settings did you change?
What kernel are you using?
What is your tegra variant? (check via root explorer, file : "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/tegra_variant")
Certain tegra variants can't handle 1.7 ghz.Even if you were to make it, you'd have to overvolt so much that your phone would keep rebooting due to heat.
And restarts are mostly caused by the CPU not being able to handle the high frequency with such low voltage.Better variant (max 3, min 0) means more overclock potential and more tolerance to lower voltages.

no I did't undervolt
Iam not change any think in kernel setting just move cpu frequency control to 1.6 or 1.7
about kernel I try all custom kernel
tegra_variant is 0, cpu is weak sorry
tegra_variant is 0
that's I have seen in my tegra_variant

That means you can barely overclock and even if you do, it will drain your battery so quickly that it will not be worth it.
If I were you, I wouldn't overclock.My variant is 1 and I can overclock just fine, but it drains battery too quickly and the gain in performance is barely noticeable.
If you still feel like your phone is laggy, go to the links in my signature and flash the ROM/kernel.I can honestly say they are the best I've flashed so far.
I also recommend you to undervolt by -50mV.This should help keep your system cool, while preserving some battery and it won't reduce performance or anything.
Talking from experience, I've overclocked my phone for 3 months or so.After I returned to default frequencies, I noticed that the gain wasn't worth it at all.Same goes for overclocking GPU.You just increase voltage far too much to gain a few mhz and it makes your battery run out very quickly.

Use these two http://www.modaco.com/topic/373632-liquidsmooth-32-featuring-mourta-kernel-34x-updated-2014-10-15/
http://www.modaco.com/topic/373498-mourta-kernel-34-a-new-beginning-update-2014-10-15/
First flash the rom and the kernel afterwards.As far as I know this kernel doesn't support overclocking, but it has better performance compared to a phone that uses 3.1 kernel with 1.5 ghz CPU and 564 mhz GPU, just because it's 3D scaling is so good.
It also reduces stutters you get in most of the games and removes from some of them due to improved core handling etc.
Btw, I recommend you to use ART as it kind of removes the need to overclock your CPU, you'll notice that your phone is a bit faster and a lot more battery friendly when you're on ART instead of dalvik.ART also reduces stutters in some games compared to dalvik.
i had same problem first. My O4X forze still 1,7ghz at 1,3V didn't dared to try with more voltage
Still running 1,6 on liquidsmooth 3.2 mourtas one and cyodak kernel.
This is what i need to run stable on variant 0.
Can anyone help me i am looking for a complete benchmark of Motorola droid 4 (any rom) the web reviews cant help me so much i want to see if it suits of my needs so i can buy it !
thanks

If you need benchmarks, the droid 4 is not for you.

i had xperia pro(its nearly broken) i just want to compare the results to see if they are similar because they are both old phones and i need the qwerty keyboard...and some basic multitasking without lags, it would be helpful if you can give me a screen shot of anutu benchmark of your phone or droid 4, numbers always help to decide when you compare 2 phones.
Regards
John
Antutu v5.2.0 on my Droid 4 with Slimkat 8.8 and Lucize jbx kernel scores 16504 @ 1300mhz CPU / 384mhz GPU, and with the CPU fully overclocked to 1404mhz it scored 17112
1200mhz is stock on the CPU and 307mhz on the GPU.

did you compile it by your self? because i am not able to change the gpu/cpu values with root explorer/terminal
*i flashed lucize wip kernel
if its a custom build by you with oc,can you share it plz? thanks !

It has to be the "JBX" kernel, lucize has decided to remove this file from his post for some reason, I've attached it to this post. It's based off dtrail's JBX kernel for the motorola RAZR, you can flash that kernel to the device too but I found the radio signal level would read wrong, so I have always used this one.

seems okay it has overclocked gpu and uv/oc-+ cpu plus governors :good:
i will see the battery now
Thanks for sharing :cyclops:
Hi!
Is it possible to use "JBX" kernel with stock ROM? Or maybe only module that allowing GPU overclocking?

You need to be rooted and have a recovery installed like TWRP / safestrap, you install that kernel zip just as you install a third party ROM through recovery. If you just want GPU overclock don't bother, the increase from 307 to 384mhz only increases GPU performance by maybe 5%, it's purposely set to 307mhz stock because the GPU is bottlenecked elsewhere (ie: memory bandwidth), 384mhz increases battery drain and heat without much performance gain.

After much testing I could only get 1391mhz 100% stable, regardless of voltage settings. Could get 1.5ghz to benchmark, but never fully stable. It does speed up the phone quite a bit, but the biggest improvement is simply using a debloated ROM with every APK removed that you can.
