Hey guys is it safe to use set cpu to oc evo? or what app would you recommend?
I use set CPU and it is safe to a certain point. If you overclock to far your phone will lock up and you will have to pull the battery. You have to experiment to see how far u can go. My phone is stable as a rock at 1152 MHz but gets llocked up at 1190 MHz so like i said experiement with it

614 mhz is the new OC! Try over clocking for sure but you see more profitable results under clocking. I do however use set cpu to OC when I am charging

Fellas,im looking to use SetCPU to OC my evo,i need a custom kernel i assume.two questions.
1.can i flash a custom kernel using the mount/unmount zip in recovery for my GodMode Synergy?
2.What Are Good Values,im trying to safely underclock to save battery life.

@gotheart, I strongly suggest freedom kernel by Lithid. There are bugs as it is in beta stage but he is an amazing developer and will implement an incredible kernel. He has one specifically for godmode so make sure you get that. He has versions that underVOLT the processor, using less battery. Though I would be cautious as some phones become very unstable with these changes.
Underclocking for CPU is variable... I like 614 MHz, some choose to go lower. I have noticed Sense ROMs (like synergy) are a bit more touchy with performance tweaks. For me, even in hot weather I need to bump my settings up, as my phone can't keep up with the heat.

Thanks so much man.i was a dev at one point..but i dunno jack about clocking cpu.lol.so youre saying 614,as in set the max value to 614 correct?and i sure will check out that kernel

I just wanted to let everyone know that tegrak has been updated and works with ICS on our phones now. I am currently running Codename with -75 undervolt.
It will work on stock ICS kernel.

Yup!
I posted this in the AOKP thread actually. I saw it fly past my twitter that it was updated for GalaxySII but figured it was for the international versions, or for that matter just non-sprint. But I updated it and it does indeed allow overclocking.
Yeah, pretty freaking sweet....cant wait to see how much more I can get out of the battery now.
I'll be even more excited when we have the source for the kernel. I would like to see some more governors available, such as Smartass. The three we have available, User Space, On Demand and Performance aren't really spectacular, though they do the job.
Really hell yeah i sent an email to dev about supporting ics on next update

I subtracted 75mv from all of the voltages. So it is undervolted by 75mv. Definitely seeing longer battery life than yesterday, but the rom was also flashed yesterday, so it might just be settling in.
I have had numerous kernel panic lockups and spontaneous reboots trying to use tegrak at speeds and voltages that were perfectly stable on 2.3. I even tried to go a little higher on voltages. Still reboots. Think it just isn't ready for primetime yet.

Ive contacted the dev about several things Ive seen. Like when you clear dalvik cache it will hang on boot, need to pull battery. I hope Im not the only one that happens to.

I had is set to restore on boot, but when the phone would boot, it would lock up. I can restore after boot just fine, just not with boot.
Was running at 1400 @ 1275 mv on GB for months with no issue...For some reason the builds (calk fc15 at least) gives me no errors but it kicks it down to 800 max after awhile...I'm just using it for undervolting the cpu and gpu for now...

Calkulins roms have the battery saver script in them that controls the CPU clock. Even if you over clock on Calkulins, it will go back to whatever his script says unless his script allows the app that your using to overclock.
His script disables if it sees any other app that controls cpu.

I would see absolutely no need to overclock this phone, but I can definitely get behind undervolting at stock speed. Neato.
just installed and oc'd to 1.3ghz, and undervolted by -75 for each frequency. Also, somewhat weird is that no benchmark shows a second core. Does AOKP not use both cores?

Is anyone else having issues with calks ics rom 1.2 which is fc18 bases. I can't underclock to 800 it sticks at 1000

Hello, I'm dumping my most amazing phone ever (Dinc) that I've had since the day it came out because Verizon are greedy *******s, and I just ordered a Gnex GSM from the Google Play Store.
When it arrives, I was wondering what I can expect to achieve via an Overclock and have the system still perform rock solid.
Thanks!
subjective. different for everyone and depends on temp, usage, stability of app youre running etc etc. just bump 5% at a time until you crash then drop it down one notch
You also need to disable smart reflex to hit the higher clock speeds without random freezes or crashes. I am running the trinity kernel at 1520 MHz stable with mpu smart reflex disabled.

i can't provide any input on overclocking because this phone performs so well without it that i haven't found a need to. plus, the battery life is bad enough.

really, its different for every phone. I run 1.804ghz(trinity) stable after a little voltage adjustment. and you would have to turn off smart reflex for that. you will have t read up about smart reflex.
As said above it varies. Fastest I ran that was stable (at least for me) was 1.9 GHz (Franco Kernel) but there wasn't much benefit. I'm currently on Trinity at 1.4 GHz. Trinity on 1.7 GHz crashes for me.

Out of interest for you guys on 1.8/1.9Ghz, what do you have yours so high for? Games? Just interested as I actually have mine UNDERCLOCKED to 1096 and have no 'real world' use for anymore. Mind you, I'm not a big gamer so I wouldn't know how the nexus really handles 3d gaming.

With Trinity kernel for JB, I'd guess that 1420MHz CPU / 384MHz GPU would be stable for most phones, and it gives you a good little boost in benchmarks, fwiw. That's about the highest you can run without having to remember to tweak other values. And you can knock it down to 1036 or 1190 MHz if you need to save battery. My phone tests ok with the 15xx/5xx MHz kernel, but there isn't much additional oomph in the benchmarks, so I just use the 1420. Also don't want to abuse my phone too much.

Gnex overclock
I have overclocked my Gnex to 1.6 with the glados kernel and using the glados control app it's very stable. I tried 1.8 but crashes but I would highly recommend glados very stable at 1.6 and runs a quadrant score in the 2800's

Congrats on dumping Verizon. They are the worst. I am happy to be rid of them. Trinity 1344 and Franco Milestone 5 have been the most stable for me. I currently am running Franco Milestone 5 at 1536, it's fast and stable. You gotta remember too that this phone is running Jelly Bean and a dual core which will be faster than your Dinc anyways.

You have to see the battery issue as well, if not to its will end quickly! In my opinion, use it in Stock is enough. But sometimes I get to put on 1.4Ghz CPU, and I reduce the voltages using the app franco kernel.
I was running Franco milestone 5 at 1536 nice and stable. I think I'm going to drop it back to stock-ish speeds and undervolt it a bit to save battery.

Thanks for all the input everyone.
I guess my last question now would be, if I root and keep the Stock ROM, has anyone experimented overclocking the stock kernel?
And if I decided to install CWM, and keep the stock ROM, would Trinity or Franco work on that? Or would I have to install something like CM10 or AOKP to use those other Kernels.
I would rather just like to stay stock without CWM and overclock the stock kernel.
So I have recently installed CM 10 on my S3 and I'm loving it. However i am a bit worried. The S3 is said to run at 1400 Mhz or 1.4 Ghz. But when I go into settings then performance, the max is set to 1512 Mhz and I didn't touch anything! CM sets it to this by default. My question is does Cyanogenmod overclock your device? Or is that the clock speed that S3 really runs on? My phone has also been getting hot lately but I'm not sure if that has to do with anything at all. Any help is Greatly appreciated!!!

1400 mhz is the max stock clock frequency on the international version (i9300) and 1512 mhz is the stock max freq for the at&t version (i747).
I haven't had any issues with heat. Try running an app to check the CPU temp.

I would use better battery stats just to see what is accessing or CPU. Also u may wipe and do a fresh full clean install. Like I said I have mine over clocked to 1.9 with no undervolting with no issue. But also keep in mind every phone is different.

I recently flashed the KT747 for a super fast 2.1mHz CPU overclock. But then after flashing I realized it doesn't overclock the GPU that much.
Are there any kernels that can overclock the GPU to about 700mHz?
-Thanks for any help!
Sorry for CyanogenMod 10.1 (d2att) nightly ROM.
Does the new SiyahKernel work with the ATT Galaxy S3 running CM10.1 nightly?
Ah stupid me I meant 2.1ghz or 2106mHz CPU overclock.
I don't think any kernels do GPU OC, because it has shown to cause more problems than it is worth. That's just what I remember KT saying.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Most custom kernels if not all already have GPU OCd to 450mhz
Over clocking the GPU on a GS3 is not needed and even with it over clocked, you wouldn't tell the difference. It also leads to issues and battery drainage.
The S3 doesn't need OC at all 1.2Gz with 2Gz of ram leaves no place for lag.

I haven't had any lag whatsoever at any point that I've had my S3. Try reflashing your rom and completely wiping. Also try a different kernel and kernel settings.
This phone shouldn't lag at all. Maybe a little on TouchWiz but never on AOSP

My s3 lags at 2.1 GHz too. Try it at 1.6 or 1.7 GHz or change governor settings to a faster ramp up one.
