CM9 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. Loving the nightly builds. When will we get the over clocking function back? I miss the extra 300MHz I used to get.

Rooted phones can have that feature by using market apps . There are quite a few overclocking apps out there .

I used to use Antutu but this does not work. I'm sure they disabled the ability in the builds.

Maybe just flash another kernel? eg. Devil2 or Icy Glitch

I guess I could. I'm a little hesitant too change from the defaults. In the earlier builds OC was enabled and fine for me. Just wondering if it was set to be re-enabled.

You can flash Devil kernel 0.67b and OC via NStools.

Overclocking kernel for CM 5.0.7/8?

Hello,
I´ve searched for a overclocking kernel for the latest CyanogenMod to increase cpu clock up to 652Mhz (or at least: to try it). I have found the "UNIVERSAL OVERCLOCK for ANY ROM-- Wifi Fixed Version 2.0.1".
It works, but wifi won´t start anymore. Are there other kernels to try?
The only one I've seen and tried is on droidbasement site, I think.

Same thing happened to me with that kernel... thatnks to a Nandroid backup I was able to go back to normal. Still looking for a god multitasking kernel.
I'm not sure why you're having a WIFI issue.
I am using a 5.0.8 ROM with the 2.0.1 OC Kernal on my MyTouch3G and it is working perfectly.
I also tried it with multiple Donut ROMS and it works perfectly. Maybe try a full wipe a reflash? Or maybe try a CyanogenMod Rom to test.

Just updated to CM9 - problem with setCPU scaling governors

Hai,
I just updated my O2X from 2.3 to Android 4.0.3, and CM9.0.0-RC0-SelfKANG3-Optimus2X. I've restored setCPU via titanium backup, and i cannot set scaling governors in main window. It looks like screen that i've posted in attachments.
To be sure, thats its not becouse of kernel that im using, I've checked file that show available governors ( it shows 2 - performance and powersave).
I'm curently on ironkrnL48-20120218h2043_ics kernel.
I've tryed CM9 KANG1 rom, and problem exist aswell.
ps. Which kernel you recommend with this governor, that rapidly increases CPU clock when needed? :>
// i tryed to google this problem, and i didnt find the answer.
thx.
Governors are useless on our phone, Arcee stated it long ago in CM7 threads, and had be confirmed by many devs.
So don't bother with governors, as we lack specific NVIDIA sources to recompile kernel with proper governors (and other that exists on other CPU), CM9 kernel is only a hack between GB kernel and Android 4 sources.
There is Ironkrnl work for P990, and faux kernels for P999.
Also, vadonka is working very hard on his ICS version of ETaNa Kernel. So in the near future, we will have another kernel to choose from.
So just use SetCPU profiles
selfkang2 + 48mb ics kernel gave me random reboots after battery went below 50%

The same happened to me on temasek's 204-67 CM7 kang. On 204-66 I had two governors available in the drop-down: performance and powersave (if I recall properly). Now the dropdown is just empty.
To be sure, thats its not becouse of kernel that im using, I've checked file that show available governors ( it shows 2 - performance and powersave).

I confirm - I flashed new kang but left the same kernel as before (vadonka's ETaNa-REV1, 18FEB one). So it seems that something changed in the system, not the kernel.

I followed the instructions here to install my CM9. SetCPU seems to work fine for me. Maybe you can try the kernel that's included in the instructions.

[Q] overclock

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.

[KERNEL][CM10] CM10 kernel for ICS bootloader (RAM hack,OC)

This kernel is no longer being updated. Please refer to kowalski kernel thread for CM10 ROMs.
Presenting CM10 kernel built from source with ramhack and OC/UV support by wkpark
Only for the new (unlocked ICS) bootloader!
This is RC's kernel, with patches by wkpark for ramhack and OC/UV. Supports OC upto 1.5 GHz.
Thanks to them for all their work. Also, thanks to pengus77 for bringing CM10 to the new bootloader
Built using my guide over here
Uses spica's HP supersonic toolchain
Works with CM10/MIUIv4 ROM on new bootloader only
Download links:
New and recommended powersaver version!
Includes pengus77's wifi drain fix (All credit to him for that)
Non-OC, to increase battery life and stability
RAM hack values 24 MB, 32 MB, 48 MB for increased smoothness
New experimental governors are absent in this ROM, which is meant to be a stable version for daily usage. The new governors have not been properly tested yet and are unlikely to be used by most of the users. They may be included in later builds after more testing. If you want to use them, flash the experimental kernel on the previous page.
This is the version recommended for daily usage. Try the 48 MB one first, and if camera gives problems, then try a lower RH value.
Download link for stable, powersaver version
Link to latest experimental version
Download link for older experimental versions
This is the link to my folder with all kernels for the new bootloader so far, in case you want to try some other version. Ramhack values are mentioned in the file names, and if it supports OC (not every phone will like OC) it is also mentioned in the file name.
Thanks to RC and wkpark, this would not be possible without them.
Warning:
I am not responsible if anything goes wrong with your phone.
If your phone does not like OC/UV, or freezes when overclocked, reduce the max frequency or dont use the OC version of the kernel.
If apps like camera give problem, try to use a version with reduced ramhack value.
To be flashed over the ROM without wiping data. Wipe only cache and dalvik cache
If you are having problems with the new kernel and wish to revert back to the stock kernel, flash your ROM again
Credits:
arcee and the rest of the CM team. Its their work it is based on
Donate to RC
wkpark for cracking the bootloader, new his patches, without which, there would be no ramhack or OC/UV
Donate to wkpark
pengus77 for bringing CM10 to the new bootloader and wifi battery drain fix.
This wouldn't be possible without him
spica1234 for his wonderful HP Supersonic toolchain
benee for his anykernel updater for star, and for all his work
Other devs for all their work (PM me if I forgot someone!)

Changelog:
29/12/12:
New version built with spica's supersonic HP toolchain
Integrated pengus77's latest (v3) wifi drain fix + bsod fix
27/12/12:
Experimental version released with new CPU governors (smartass v2 and hotplug), and simple I/O scheduler (default is still cfq), max frequency=1.2 GHz
Power saver version released without OC or new governors, and with pengus77's wifi battery drain fix
26/12/12:
Initial release
Max clock frequency is 1.5 GHz
Trying the 32mb oc kernel, seems ok so far, will report back any oddities,
I'm on penguss cm10.
i tested..............
Great news. Just two little questions:
- does this work with cm10.1 as well?
- are the Wifi drain patches from pengus77 included?
Regards,
Orgler
Thank u guy's! i will try new_CM10_kernel_1225_32M_OC.zip and report back!

You could try it with cm10.1 but im not sure if it would work. Take a backup first. Wifi drain patches will be included with his permission and when he feels it is the right time (after the testing phase and all)
thanks for the hard work i think u can put like a changelog in thread and the features of kernel listed just avoid people asking same thinks all the time
included wireless.ko is the one patched by pengus? thank you in advance
edit: just checked, it's not the patched one
First impressions are good! Not much room for UV as 1ghz is already at 1000mV which is quite low already I think? But that is not important, just an observation.
Thanks Rugglez. Been waiting a while for an OC kernel on CM10 and no call bug either. This is the future for our phone I think.
I ´m testing the 48M_OC-Kernel on CM10.
I set max OC to 1,2GHz, but Antutu CPU Master shows Peaks at 1,5GHz! The Kernel is always scaling in its full available Range.
I tested it with different Settings and Gouvenours, nothing helps.

I just checked with "CPU spy" and yes it is hitting 1.5Ghz even though I have it set lower than that.
Noted. Will release 1.2 GHz and 1.4 GHz versions separately from next time
With pengus77 permission now, i'll integrate his wifi drain fix too.
Probably tomorrow

Can you put in the next update some more CPU governers and I/O scheduler?

Same here oc set to 1.2 but it's scaling up to 1.5 seems stable anyway.
Took one pic and gallery FCed and phone soft rebooted.
With OC 32mb kernel camera and video recording is working.

I do a OC with default cm10 function and on antutu say 1200!
Sorry for being off topic. I really salute new generation of developers for optimus2x who never let us feel our main devs/modders have left. You guys are doing a fabulous job. Thanks to you all.
Gps does not working.
Tested with igo and maps.

rugglez,
Please add pulse boost and hotplug governor. Thanks.

[Q] Can't overclock CM 9.1 or don't know how?

I've just went to an CM 9.1 from the CM Website, as I love stable ROM's not trciked and laggy ones. I've flashed Semephore 1.3.0 Kernel and theoretically i should get the ability to OC my device, as the scripts were installed in the right folder. But even with and overclocking app i don't get a function more than 1 Ghz to OC. What else should i add to this ROM or what should I change? Or if this ROM is incompatible with semaphore's Kernel, please tell me.
Edit:
I found out. Semaphore kernel has built in Semaphore Script Manager and it's installed as a system app which can be accessed from the app menu.
