Hi, i am currently using a kernal that is clocked at 1.42Ghz, see link below. Everything is stable and super smooth, i would like to know if there are kernals with a higher overclock than this and if other gnex are stable at them frequencies? Want push mine to see what its capable of.

If you read the UV/OC thread in the Dev section relating to UV/OC patches, you can see why overclocking past 1.4 isn't very stable..

Yes I have already read them, I'm currently on a Max frequency of 1.42Ghz + UV which isn't supposed to be stable, but I feel that my phone is capable of handling this, therefore I would like to know if there was anything else out there to see the maximum capabilities of my phone

What kind of results are you guys seeing from undervolting this phone? Are you seeing less heat and an increase in battery life? Thanks. I'm considering rooting my phone so I can improve these two areas.

Nice to see you posted in the DEV section!
Yes on both account.
I find that using a 1.2Ghz UV no OC with the voltages below work quite stably:
1150
1050
950
850
I don't see why it is so hard for people to follow the rules.... smh

How are you all undervolting? Does it require you to flash a custom ROM or kernel?

Hello,
When i try to run the 1.4ghz hack, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380064),
I get stuck on the google screen.
And when I try to use franco's kernal it all works but I have a max cpu of 1200mhz.
Has anyone else eccounted the same problem and how do you fix it so you get the 1400mhz.
Thanks
The kernel from that link is 4.0.2. Franco's latest kernel doesn't have OC. Try one of the other 4.0.3 kernels that can OC such as Apex on rootzwiki.

If you are getting stuck at the Google screen it means your phone can't handle 1.4ghz

Im having the same problem. I think the kernal i was using is for 4.0.3 only.. i missed the 4.0.2 version by a day. My only hope is that when 4.0.3 su.zip comes out in a few weeks it will work then because im not sure i want to port it from another device

I believe they're 1.4, but if you read the thread in the dev section about overclocking/undervolting patches it explains a lot in regards to why the phones won't boot/lag when it comes to all of this.
Just like the title stated, what kernel is compatible with AOKP JellyBean "Nightly" that will let me overclock my processor?
Ktoonez kernel is great. Has knots of schedulers and overclock up to 2.1ghz..my s3 has had no problem staying at those speeds for some time. Lean kernel is also good but I got random reboots with it. That one has very few schedulers and can oveclock up to 1.9 GHz. There are 2 more kernels for AOSP android. Check them out

Can you please proved me with the links to these kernel, because most of there kernel are for the AT&T and Sprint Version not the T-Mobile one.

Thanks for the link, however when I flashed it I cant seem to be able to able to overclock my processor, it is stuck at 1512mhz.
Also, I did download the Jelly Bean version of the kernel, the on and after 10/14 since my Rom was released on 10/21.
There is an app called KTweaker in there click on general and you should see the option enable oc options.

Thank you, now I can overclock.
Ive been working(slowly due to work) on a kernel for the lgog. I've been able to do some pretty heavy overclocking but I need some community preference.
Overclocking obviously causes more heat and reduced battery life. Higher overclocks require overvolting beyond required to maintain 1.5ghz set by Qualcomm/lg. Keep this in mind before asking for 2.0+ overclocks in daily kernels.
What top clock are you guys wanting for a performance kernel? Also are you guys interested in a reduced clocks kernel. 1.0-1.2 top clock with a lowered low end clock along with lower GPU and system clocks.
Personally I Dont see a big need in heavy overclocking on a quad core. However I would like some opinions before I release test kernels. I will attempt to see just how far the lgog can go at least once, but that will take around 10-20 test kernels to find the top speed.

I like the idea about under clocking. This bad boys fast already. The battery savings would be nice.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
The highest overclock that I would like to see is around 1.7-1.8Ghz even though I don't know what I would need my phone running that fast for. Now the under clocked kernel sounds very interesting .

Would like to see underclocked as well. Phone is plenty fast.

I don't see a need for anything over 1.6. The underclocking idea sounds great though

Just looking at how this governor uses CPU, it hardly uses the middle ranges. Maybe some better governors? Just another thought.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
I would be interested in a kernel with A 1.8 top speed slightly lower bottom end and different governors. While 1.5 is fast 1.8 with a better governor along with a 128 minimum speed would be a good comprise kernel
I don't know of anyone having speed issues to warrant an over clocking kernel, seems more for bragging rights.
I think most people would want a kernel that saves battery but doesn't compromise on speed. Also, have you looked into the wake lock issue yet?

I would love to see some undervolting, while maintaining a decent clock rate. Battery life is important, but i love to game too and wanna see consistent framerates.

is it hard to do 2 kernels? one for everyday use and other for some extra situations...
underclocked and overclocked...
as for me...i would like to see
-voltage control in apps (undervolting)
-usb otg

You won't see a 128 min. I'll be lucky if I get 256 stable, but it is in the works

I'll probably use faux's volt control. This is my first Qualcomm kernel so I've been mainly running through it. The n4 is far far far cleaner. Our source is a jumbled mess to an extent.
Also the other devs have found a way to run n4 stock ROM with kernel. However finding the best way for everyone to benefit is being sought after.

Faster is always better in my book. Pump that baby into overdrive!
if n4 kernel is portable to us, than usb otg - too???
and is n4 better?

Something to consider. The n4 if pushed to far will actually brick. Our device might be the same.

Haven't looked but how far can most n4 go I hope it can take at least a 300mhz oc.

I am having huge wakelock issues. Will this is implemented in a future kernel from you or is this already available to use?
I think he meant Quallcom fixed it with a patch so once the kernel is build he can add that patch into his kernel along with whatever other option he chooses to build it with

I'm thinking of flashing a different kernel to my Samsung Galaxy Nexus so I can overclock the CPU/GPU. I've noticed that franco.Kernel and Trinity seem to be among the most popular kernels, but I'm not sure which one to choose. In your opinion, what is the best kernel for overclocking and why? FWIW, I have the Verizon model of the phone (toro) and am currently running CyanongenMod 4.1.2, which is based off of Android 4.2.2.

Antutu or CF bench are good apps.. And a warning: overclocking will decrease the life of your phone! Be careful! If you want to use your phone a little longer I wouldn't do it (I wouldn't anyway because I think this phone is very fast especially with Android 4.3)..

Hi,
I've decided to bump this thread because all other GNex OC threads are very dated.
I recently received the extended battery 200mah and I'm ready to overclock. I wish to retain battery life to have screen time 3-4 hour on moderate usage.
I'm current rooted on stock ROM, and I wish to simply stay with stock ROM provided battery life will remain the same (perhaps I have to undervolt)
I want to hit 1.5GHz CPU and 384MHz GPU...which is what the OMAP and PowerVR SoC's true default clocks.
Given my circumstances of stock ROM, which kernel would give me the best stability/battery life? Any kernel that somehow has OC settings built in or do they all require me to buy setCPU?

They all use setcpu or trickster mod. Regarding the kernel you just should try some out.

What type of OC are you running?
Do you actually notice it day to day usage? I cant think of any apps that could benefit from it besides gaming which I do very little of on mobile.
How has it affected your battery life?

I don't OC myself. I want my gnex to last some longer. OC will wear out tour CPU.. I die it once for a day maybe two but didn't notice any improvement. I was at 1.5 GHz or something.. I think it may have some speed improvements but your battery will drain like a maniac. If you don't game I suggest you underclock: even more battery life with no speed loss!!
