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..
i9000m
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..

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.

I can run my SGS stable at 1540 MHz with glitch kernel in MIUI 1.5.20 ROM.
Total stability in a 48 hours stress test.

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

I just installed Tegrak OC and I am a little mystified on the best setup up for my note. I have Darky rom 3.3 and Franco test Kernal installed. If anyone has this combo and is using Tegrak what have you found to be the best setup for battery and performance together ?
Why do you need to O/C Your note??Its already very quick at processing and overclocking only leads to lesser processor life,battery life and consume lot of power.If I were you,I would leave it as it is
I'm using Tegrak and franco.kernal on stock deodexed rom. I have cpu set at 1600 but don't know enough about the other settings to make any other changes.
I was about to start a thread on this same subject. Thanks ingott77!
@vijai2011 I OC because I have the need for speed!!! And, it actually makes GB run smoother and quicker. I don't yet know if I will use it once the official ICS is released. I've heard the ICS is very quick and smooth compared to GB.

Yeah i have francos test and running 1.6 overclock with the same voltage as stock 1.4ghz (1300mv). Is completely stable for me. Overclocked the gpu too to 267/400. 400mhz is stable for me at 1000mv but may not be for others. Be careful of overheating with 3d games though. Also changed io scheduler to deadline - its francos default but for testing he changed to noop for stability testing.

I'm not a rookie....I know some stuff etc....but I have a bit stupid question. Before I overclocked GingerBread custom roms to 1500Mhz (1.5GHz) but I didn't really noticed something vissible. When we overclock our phone this really does work on e.g. 1.5ghz or 1.4ghz.....etc? I mea if we overlock a phone to 1.5GHz and we compare it with a phone clocked to 1.5GHz from factory does really work fast like the factory clocked phone?Thank You!
yes, with the right kernel you can overclock up to 1,5 ghz.
when i use 729 or above my Cpu stops working and its Reboot automaticaly any way to fix
Unfortunately you can't fix it. The overclock ability of the cpu is different in each phone. Some x8 can run on 800+ MHz, some can't reach frequencies over 700MHz. Basically the SoC (the cpu, gpu, dsp and some other device) contains millions of transistors, but the whole chip is only ONE small piece of silicium, the transistors made by litographic and other complex (and expensive) procedures. The overclock ability depends on the material quality (damages in the silicium structure), soldering quality between the core and the casing, etc. So, no existing rules to the overclock, if you lucky you can reach high frequencies, if you unlucky you can't overclock.
Note: under the manufacturing procedure the chips get a selection after testing, the highest quality 7x27 chips marked and sold as 7x27T with default 800MHz.
There is an app in the market called No Frills CPU Control: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.noFrillsCPU
It will automatically change your CPU frequencies during boot to save your phone from hard bricking.
Anyway CPU gets overheated by overclocking as more amount of power comes in to it than what is required. So as a long term effect your CPU will die out and also your Battery too. So I would say to use a faster rom and dont overclock the CPU to very high frequencies.

You are using stock kernel?
Overclocking more than 729 is not possible for stock kernel...
Use "set CPU" application & remember to uncheck "set on boot "option
# I couldnt over more than 729 in stock kernel but now with nAa kernel in can overclock up to 787 mhz

governer also matters, I always use smartassv2
As someone wise already stated, better using something like FroyoPro which is blazing fast compared to any GB rom instead of overclocking.
I can do more with FroyoPro than anyone running GB, ICS or JB roms.
It's just simple - lighter code takes less cpu cycles therefore it is quicker.
GB, ICS and JB roms really are a waste of time once you've tried FroyoPro.
The other roms are really only good for proof of concept - not for everyday usage.

I tried it , it's not that much good:/ plus it have so many bugs with alfs kernel.(brightness bug for example)
I compared it with iXperia 8s rom before, froyopro is better @ one of 3d tests(just 2 fps better)
Other test were like iXpera & minicm7
Remember it's froyo & they are ginger ,they can run newer apps .
My opinion iXperia is our best rom till now

It also depends on the kernel you are using..Alfs is better in this aspect..but too much overclocking is not recommended.
if you are using custom kernel ,under CPU settings, select the frequencies you desire and do NOT select "Set on boot" . Even if your phone gets rebooted due to overclocking the default values will be applied at boot. This way you can avoid problems.
My X8 supports upto 787MHZ on nAa .
Hit thanks if i helped.
Just out of curiosity so upto how much can i overclock my awesome x8??
So far i've been to 729MHZ

It depends on the kernel you are using..some people here overlocked @800Mhz successfully while my X8 got settled only at 787Mhz. Try yourself.
its nAa N is next to B ;-D
At 787hz doesn't restart
Mine work at 787 hz smoothly,,,,it restarts rearly...remember to have an app advanced task killer ...and set its setting to auto kill after screen turns off..Also set it to crazy kill....
Hope it will help you....

please read 2nd post by pilu. that's the best explanation. it's a hardware limitation, and it does NOT depend on the kernel.
[cAs]
Partially depends from the kernel too. The cpu clock is not only a simple value: xyz mhz. In the kernel this is a little bit complicated (pll frequencies, dividers, multipliers, voltage level, etc). Different kernels use different frequency tables, the results can be different, this the developer choice who can set different bus speeds (axi, ahb), base pll, voltage to every clock speed. You only see the frequencies in the different kernels, what is same, but the same speed maybe generated with different method.
So, the cpu overclock ability is 90% hardware limitation and 10% other things. Usually if you reach your own max speed with a kernel, the probability of higher speed with another kernel is small, the typical difference is nothing more than +/- 1 multiplier (+/- 19,2 mhz).

Im using zaiben rom on my lg optimus 4x hd. The performance is poor. Overall laggy and horrible gaming. I dont like using non stock based rom as they always have some bugs. I tried custom kernel like iodak werewolf but it made my phone heat up like crazy and unusable while charging. Any solution?
Buy another device stock Roms won't give you a good performance increase.

I used stock with zaiben kernel for months, uninstalled all the useless system apps with Root Uninstaller, including hangouts, gmail, maps, youtube ... and then installed them again as normal applications and used the greenefy to hibernate most applications, never had a problem of lagg or excess heat. Now I'm testing some KK ROMs , and do the same thing using iodak kernel 9.95 and I'm liking the results.
Make a bakcup and test some KK ROMs.

Believe me, if you're using an LG phone, custom ROMs are ALWAYS better.
Stock ROM got too many bugs and I don't really like modified stock ROMs as people usually add more bloatware.
You should really give CM11 a try.Latest nightlies got very good performance with iodak 9.5 kernel.And no important bugs you should worry about.

If you use a custom kernel like iodak or ww, you can tweak many parameters. Among them there is cpu clock frequency and voltage.
Personally, I've set the stock 1500 mhz frequency and undervolted Mpu and cpu respectively by -30 and -75 mV. My phone runs smooth as silk and never gets horribly hot.
The guys who replied before me are right, though, stock roms or their derivates cannot be compared with CM11 in terms of performance they are way better. If I were you, I would flash one of the latest nightly and a custom kernel.
After some trials and errors you will be able to find the correct balance between over/underclocking and undervolting.
That is, if you are willing of doing some experiments. If you are looking for pre-cooked solutions I am afraid you will be deceived.

Trickstermod is a favorite for most of the people.Check your tegra variant, if it's 1 or above, you can use -122mV for CPU with no problems, max freq set to 1.5 ghz
I'm using this for months now and I sometimes forget my phone can get hot, unless I do heavy gaming for 30 mins or more.
Also try to overclock GPU.Helps a lot with FPS issues.
If you want good battery life and decent performance, underclock to 1300 mhz and undervolt by -122mV (if your variant is 1 or above)
Btw you can check your variant via /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/tegravariant after installing iodak kernel.Higher the variant, the higher you can overclock/undervolt.
@UP
My tegra variant is 3 o.o But when I undervolt 30mV on CPU and 75mV on MPU - as @peppethustra recommend in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2761923&page=2 - it causes freezes, even when I underclock to 1,3GHz :/

All phones are different you may have to tweak the values to fit your needs. Try upping the LP CPU voltage to -10 and work your way down. For MPU try -25 and work your way down on that as well.
Mine is a variant 2 and can use -20 and -110 with the 520 GPU overclock
Edit: also for more performance try changing your minfree values. Lower values mean better multitasking and high values mean more killing of background apps but more free ram for the foreground apps. I personally use 8, 12, 45, 65, 95, 165
