[Q] overclock - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have gone back to my stock rom (jvo for stability) is there any way which i can overclock this rom , i was running ics at 1.4 ghz is there away for that overclock on stock

as far as I know, there is no possibility to overclock if you want to keep the stock kernel... however, you may use a different kernel (such as Midnight 0.9.0 or Semaphore 2.5.0). They come with an own settings-application which lets you overclock at least to 1200Mhz...
On a different but not unrelated topic, you may want to flash JW1 or JVT if you go for stability, they are more stable than JVO.
And I can say, JW1 in combination with Midnight kernel works pretty good, battery life is awesome and you can overclock (if you want to, that is)

got any software for overclock?
i am newbie...

If you will root your phone, you can use the app "tegrak overclock".
its free in the play store.

what rom & kernel for best battery time?

I was running miui and could not make a whole schoolday wich includes 2 hours music listening and some surf. I got 2.2.1 stock again now and its pretty decent. What rom and kernel is running low on battery??
im new to XDA!
I think u should go with Blockbuster 5.0 with galaxian EE kernel....i have same problem of battery but this rom fix this....u should try
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i think Galaxian is the best kernel
u should definitely go for galnet miui twoeey III or the latest chameleon RC3
just look in my signature below
I dont really know what i should go on but ill figure out tomorrow and probably flash tomorrow too.
ive flashed 2.3.4 and tornado rc2 with the tornado kernel, Every one says its verry smooth but when im scrolling in like market or surfing its pretty laggy ?? Isnt to fast when surfing at 3g either?
Beleive me stock rom with any custom kernel is the best.
Modify it by your self.Remove unnecesery apps with nitrality or sgs tool and you good to go.
Stock JVR+Semaphore kernel by Stratosk
I had Juwes Smart Edition 5.2 with talondev 4.2.22-1000/340MB, under clocked with voltage control, got easily 2 days +.
Blockbuster (with Galaxian) up to 12+ hrs with rather heavy use apps. (navigation and internet)

[Q] Your Favourite Rom and Kernel combination?

I've been expermienting with a ton of Roms, my favourite probably being Cyanogen Mod or Darky's (who would have thought) whats your favourite Rom and Kernel with i?, im currently on Darky 10.2.2 Final Semaphore 1.8.0
personally i think semaphore works better than Dark-Core :O its got voodoo colours and it has better quadrant scores (i know quadrant isnt a relibable source, but we all know that deep down, we all secretly care about the scores )
At the moment I'm using Semaphore 1.8.1 with the Stock (Deodexed) JVT 2.3.5 ROM.
I do admit DarkyROM is good, as that was the first Custom ROM I started to use. But now I've moved on.
CM7, any kernel. It's all good.
CM7 and stock Kernel.
Noob question: What is the advantage of using a custom Kernel.. wouldn't have the Cyanogenmod people changed their Kernel if it wasn't optimal?

How can i speed up my galaxy s GT-i9000

Hi all on xda i'm wanting to improve my galaxy s i9000 speed, at the moment my phone runs at abt 960-1000 on quadrant standered which i know is rubbish, my galaxy s is on a stock rom & kernel (firmware 2.3.3, build number GINGERBREAD.XWJVH, kernel 2.6.35.7-i9000XWJVH-CL184813 [email protected] #2) updated using kies, I used to have it rooted but unrooted it don't know why what r my options regarding getting better results on quadrant any help on this topic would be much appreciated.
Thank you
John
install a custom rom,
if u want good battery, decent speed then install Darkys Rom,
if u want PURE speed (with stock android, without the touchwiz ui) then install CyanogenMod7
or just go over to the development section and experiment around with the Roms,
MAKE SURE THAT B4 U INSTALL A ROM, U ARE ROOTED BY INSTALLING A GINGERBREAD KERNEL THORUGH ODIN, AND THAT YOU KNOW HOW TO GET OUT OF A SITUATION IF U HAPPEN TO BRICK YOUR PHONE (LIKELY, BUT EASY TO FIX ) however, if u do anything to your phone and u dnt know how to fix it, im not responsible, ill try 2 help but wnt guarantee anythink
if i helped, be sure to click the "thanks" button
Forget quadrant, just a random number generator. High score in quadrant has value when you wanna show off, and at the same time let others know you really don't know.
I'm still going on XWJVH, happy user of rooted Semaphore kernel 1.8.2.
The included Semaphore app gives you access to a lot of tweaks, Voodoo color/sound and a smooth operating phone.
The latest leaked ROMs (XXJVS, XXJVT) still has bugs: phone FC, WIFI disconnect. If you feel brave and wanna try one of these ROMs, make sure to read what's fixed in their OP and latest posts for experience of users.

Try ThunderBolt! in my sig. Be sure to read the requirements and meet them before flashing
Stock jvt
or faaryabs f1 rom v13 that hopefully will be released today if you want more features.
talon or semaphore as kernel.
And thunderbolt tweaks.

delete unnecessary apps
root and delete unneccesary apps.
Flash stock JVT and Semaphore, then convert to EXT4.
my WiFi works fine, and for the Phone FC, just flash the JVT Phone Fix.
For me this is the best stock ROM that I've tried. Fast and stable, the browser has improved a lot.

use sgs chlorine, can remove all the stock apps in seconds

Root and install a Cooked rom, anyone will do better than the stock one.
And forget Quadrant, it's rubbish.
+1 on Pikachu01 Thunderbolt script. Running very much smoother on my SGS.
Mitra Rom is faster then other and use lagfix
small tip

If you use JVT with JVK modem the phone will operate amazingly, no phone fc, no wifi disconnect, great battery life + performance.
Good luck!
try miui mintberry
My advice would be first flash a few custom roms+kernels and see how that works for you.
If that isn't fast or smooth enough you could try tweaks like thunderbolt!

MIUI mint berry and via rom toolbox clocked into 1,3ghz
I´m on JVZ with Semaphore 2.1.1 and overclocked CPU (1300 mhz). This motor is fast, stable and smooth.
Hey!
2.3.6 is very good!
you should test at the beginn of your "Flash carrier" a few Roms + Kernels.

Look, if you want a rom that supports custom themes, mods and other tweaks, then go for stock JVT or some custom rom. But it is undeniable that gingerbread will always lag slightly on the galaxy s due to low ram. Heck, it even lacks on the nexus s.
In reality, if you want a lag-free (and I really mean LAG-FREE) rom, you should go for Froyo 2.2.1 roms. Froyo roms were meant for 512mb of ram, and they work flawlessly on the galaxy s. ZSJPK 2.2.1 never lagged on my SGS.
And just to be clear, ram is indeed the limiting factor to smoothness on our phone. On Gingerbread, free ram is less than 100mb after a day's usage, and so the phone has to constantly close and reopen background processes while you're using it. If I'm not mistaken, the default kernels begin to close apps and processes once ram drops below 64mb. Eg: Free ram is 100mb. You open the browser which uses 20mb, and then when you load facebook which uses another 20mb, the free ram has dropped below 60, so while processing the webpage, the cpu has to simultaneously close background processes. Then when you leave fb, the cpu reopens those processes. Hence, the phone lags.
But on Froyo, there's up to 180mb of ram on boot, and somehow ram consumption after prolonged use is not that high, so it can last for days with over 120mb of ram and hence never lags.
In conclusion, the only viable solution to lag that I have experienced so far is by using froyo 2.2.1 roms, especially the later builds like ZSJPK or the other one which name I cannot remember. Things like voodoo lagfixes don't really help (unless you're on eclair) and custom rom tweaks are really just placebo effects actually.

Wrong thread. Also there is tonnes of information a single google search away on how to root your phone. One way is to download Odin and then flash a rooted kernal such as CF-Root onto the phone from Download mode.

[Q] What Kernel are you using with what Rom and why?

As the title suggests I would like to know what kernel people are using with what Rom and why.
Do you use the same Kernel with every Rom you flash?

Well im on stock 2.2.1 froyo with CF-ROOT kernel. got this phone as present lats week. haven`t flash it yet xD but ,as anyone here, i just love flashing
I am using cm9 nightlies - based on 4.0.4 because of its stability, good battery life and performance, settings + twics - tw launcher, weather widget and some other things from sgs3, atm with devil3 .79 kernel, with stock ram (378mb, if needed, i can increase it up to 403mb), stable oc up to 1400mhz (with semaphore 1140max., 1200 -> bootloop), also gpu is oc-able ... but if u dont want to oc, semaphore kernel is better for u
I'm reinstalling right now the miui speed ics by lucainno, with devil3 kernel. I really love this rom expecially for the layout, which is different from any other rom! The speed is great and battery life as well. And the kernel is simply... awesome! For its customization
Hi, I'm using ics 4.0.4 cna by franzy with the midnight kernel. I had the devil before but i got a bootloop. With the last midnight the phone is smooth, no lags, good battery life, no bugs until now !
Saurom jw5 + semaphore + ext4 works for me.. very smooth ops. Sticking to 2.3.6 for the fm radio
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
I'm running the CM9 nightlies as well, with a Semaphore kernel. Very stable and good batteri life, although I'm thinking about comparing with a devil3 kernel. Right now, with the battery life I'm having the most important thing for me is the stability, though.

overclock note??

Just rooted my note n7000 on gb 2.3.6 indian kernel-- LC1 wanted to know how can i overclock it??
PLZZ HELP
as you have just rooted your phone and still in GB, I would not suggest overclocking yet. How about flash the JB ROMs posted here and use it for some time and if the performance is not acceptable for you find a compatible kernel that can be overclocked and flash that.
I do not particularly think that JB has better performance than GB, and overclocking does have risks of it's own (may fry the phone up ). You can overclock with custom kernels that support overclock using apps like performance control after flashing the kernel.
