I am currently running mikG 2.45 more freedom. Titanium backup loaded 335 Apps, which include system apps. I am thinking the maybe 200+ apps I have installed are the reason for the on and off lag.

Apps maybe be paying apart in it but you say your running "more freedom" try running the stock freedom not the more or less or extreme or whatever he calls them. The undervolting may be limiting your processor. Also use set CPU and try to overclock a little. Im running synergy rls1 with stock freedom overclocked up to 1152 smooth as a whistle and battery is through the roof. try stock freedom and if that dont work pm me and ill help u out more if needed

I was going to try aggressive freedom on the old one and 8.5. Wow overclocking to 1152 I thought that would drill my battery into the ground.

Overclocking doesn't really show a noticeable impact in my experience. Only if you are playing a CPU intensive game that pins your CPU at 100% then it drains slightly faster not to bad tho. Also if you use the "interactive x" governor it manages the cpu's frequencys to try to keep them as low as possible so you only using enough to do a task instead of going 100% for something that doesn't need that much power. It also keep the CPU at the lowest frequency you allow it to be when you shut off the screen. So if you set your Max to 1152 and min to 245 for example. When you shut off the screen it will stay at 245 and not jump around. That tremendously helps battery. It about 8p.m. here and i have had ghis on since 7 a.m. and I'm at about 30% and that's with quite a few text, 2 - 5minute calls, about 20 minutes of games, and an hour of music. The only bad thing about overclocking is that if you go overclock to far for to long you can fry your phone. But ive been running 1152 for about 6 months and perfectly fine so i figure that's pretty good. If u have more questions or need help pm me
Edit: i forgot i also had about 20 min of internet/xda browsing on wifi and the past 45min on 3g doing the same thing haha

I have a og evo I want to know why when I overclock to 1.2ghz it freezes my phone why does it do that ?
Sent from my Nocturnal 4G using xda premium
Each Evo is different. Some of them can't handle that high overclock, or can't be undervolted very low. Each one is different, each has its limits.
I don't understand the big deal with overclocking. It burns your battery faster. I personally underclock, with little to no lag and is good enough for my casual gaming needs
Mine doesn't like a clock much at all. I can get about 1.1 before it starts locking up but even then it hangs a lot. I honestly don't see a difference from 1.0 to 1.2. Get a decent rom, good kernel and try out the v6 script an I almost guarantee you will like that better.

Well for us to be able to help you, you would need to provide us with more details on how you are trying to accomplish this.
I use no frils cpu but have also tried setcpu and viperMOD I know that's the best way to overclock but is very confusing. Have any step by step instructions to of to 1.2 I know having higher voltages helps as well.

Overclocking is overrated. If you need to overclock for every day usage, then something is wrong - at least in my opinion. Resource intensive gaming is different, but you shouldn't need to overclock for browsing, texting, casual games, etc.
Try out the V6 Supercharger script. I'm not currently using it, but have in the past and it seemed to make my phone more snappy. A lot of people swear by it and it's a great script, definitely worth a shot. There are other things you can do to speed up your phone without overclocking. I'd try other options first since overclocking will chew through your battery. Increase the dalvik vm heap size, there are plenty of free apps on the market to help with this task. Uninstall apps you don't use, I'll bet that you never use some of the apps on your phone. Back them up with Titanium Backup and you can restore them if you ever need them again.
In case you didn't already know, the Evo can't overclock past 1.2, I'm not 100% sure why - it has something to do with the processor.

I never oc over 1075 and only when plugged in if i play a game I need to oc.for I just activate my charging profile and plug up and play 1.2 ghz is a good chance of doing serious.damage as these older scorpion processors get very very hot at that clock speed so they lock up to try and protect themselves from heat damage or they shut down the phone 1075 is as high as you should need to go for any games the evo can handle on the subpar gpu

I'm pretty sure viperMOD is more for undervolting than overclocking, which are not suppose to be combined together. I am running vipermod with max voltages - 50. Other nite was playing snes9x and was getting some lag with a game so I bumped max CPU up to 1.2. Phone went into a bootloop and had to superwipe and reflash everything. Don't know if its b/c vipermod + 1.2 CPU or just bumping up CPU. Didn't try it again.

You can overclock and undervolt together just fine. You just need to ensure that every frequency has a high enough voltage to run the processor at that step. My Evo is overclocked and undervolted just fine, although IIRC I can only push it up to 1.1 GHz . My tablet is 1ghz to 1.6ghz and is undervolted as well, though.
merge rls 2.0, iron monkey, Droid overclock because of the profiles options. I set up four profiles including one for temp. sometimes i'm underclocking and sometimes overclocking but only up to 1.19 to prevent freeze and boot loops. Only downside is right at open Droid overclock needs su permission but that is my choice since profile changes at open.
Very snappy afterwards.

When I had the 4G, I was never able to go above 1118, or somewhere around that. It would have freezing issues.
On my evo shift, I was able to do 1.7 gHz (compared to stock 800 mhz) ok. 1.6 pretty reliabily, and I could run 1.5 all day long. Some guys could do 1.9. It just depends on the phone.
Actually overclocking and undervolting is counter-productive. What you should do, is read carhaulers and ropodopes guide over at vaelepak. Its give some good useful info about how to set up a good aosp rom. I'm underclocked, undervolted, and still getting 1400+ benchmarks. Check it out bro. You'll love the results.

What? Overclocking and undervolting are two completely different things, and they aren't mutually exclusive. Unless you can provide a good reason as to why it's counter productive to do both, I don't buy that at all. Just checked my phone, my overclock requires an extra 25 mV for all three steps I've overclocked. 25mV isnt much, and it certainly isn't going to kill my battery that much faster.
Besides, the only time the CPU is going to be entering these high power modes is when it needs to do work, and it's better to do work as fast as possible to go back to sleep. Would you rather wake up, do a mundane task for 5 minutes, then go back to sleep or wake up, do a task at 2x the speed while only consuming 30-50% more energy, then going back to sleep after only 2.5 minutes?

First let me say I don't use viper mod or any voltage controlling mod.
On sense 3.0 roms such as mikg I over clock to 1152 and set the minimum to 384 and its smooth as butter. No problem and battery lasts all day.
On aosp however such as decks (I'm on it now) I underclock to 499 and leave the min at 254. Smooth as always and battery lasts forever.
Anything past 1152 is going to cause problems (at least in my experience) also the rom/kernel can effect how much you can overclock.

Its counter productive because it is giving less to something that needs more. (Don't take this post as me trying to be a ****. Just voicing how someone explained it to me a while ago)
Think of this as cars.
Lets say you have a nice fancy v8 mustang. Stock, everything is well, balanced.
If you start adding parts and get it pushing out 1000 horsepower (overclock) your most likely gonna need more feul (voltage) or at least stock amount flowing into the engine just to keep it running.
Now lets say you got that same 1000 horsepower gas destroying mustang and you start to lower the amount of gas flowing into the engine (undervolt (done in vipermod)) cylinders (CPU) wont get enough gas, it wont work, and your stuck going no where.
So if that made sense (did to me) then you can see why they are counter productive. Unless your using vipermod to overvolt (which idk if you can since I don't use it) then you can disregard this whole post

Your car analogy is completely irrelevant. You can look up the exact voltages that the CPU runs on at every frequency, *even when overclocking*. Overclocking an Evo 1ghz to 1.2ghz takes maybe a 5% bump in voltage, and that 5% extra power is only going to be used *when the CPU is running at max speed* (which is only when there is a lot of work to do), and even then, it's *still better to let the CPU run at max speed with a tiny bit more power consumption than to cap the CPU at a slower speed and make it work for even longer*. Intel calls it HUGI, Hurry Up and Get Idle.
I know what I'm talking about, and I wish people would stop trying to argue with me based off of second hand speculation. I do this for a living, after all. There is absolutely nothing wrong with overclocking and undervolting, and it's the best way to get the most battery life *and* performance out of your phone, period.

Hmm, *interesting*. I believe the best answer to the OP was covered rather well earlier. It's all about your rom/kernel/hardware combination. With all the variables to consider as relevant, your best bet is to experiment and find what works for your device. Don't check set on boot untill you are confident the set-up is stable. Higher is not always better with overclocking. My device runs blazingly well underclocked @768max. Gets insanely great battery @499max. However my quadrants are better @ 1036 than at 1190.
Great thing about android is you can experiment and learn through trial and error.

But what exactly is uv? I thought it was just having the maximum below 1000 but it seems there's a way to go a lot lower than that?? I'm not sure if I'm just confused or what's going on.. but I seen ppl saying things about having their phones on stuff like -125 to 200 mhz or something like that
How could u go negative or was I just not feeling well when I thought I read something like that..? Can anyone help me out please lol

oh my gawd noob......just kidding
Overclocking pushes the cpu frequency aka speed.
Underclocking limits the cpu frequency.
Overvolting pushes more voltage/battery to the phone to stabilize/add preformance, however there will be more heat and more chance of ruin.
Undervolting takes away voltage to help lower comsumption of battery and in some cases helps the cpu run cooler and faster or even more effieciently.
How To:
Download voltage control from the market. Open it, and go into the voltages tab. Press the frequencies that are empty. You can tap the whole thing and it will bring up the bar for voltages lower it on free version or add voltage on the paid version only.

undervolting is all about getting the least battery drain on each frequency. -125 means they are running 125 mV below stock. The downside is if you run to low it will freeze your phone and you may have to do a battery pull..thats why i dont go above -25 on 900 and 1000mhz but can get -125 on 200mhz. I disable 100 mhz because my phone has problems with it and havent seen any difference in battery. Each persons phone will be different, some can only do -25 on each frequency. Download Voltage control and toy around. Just dont SET AT BOOT until you've used the settings for a few days.

And 400-800 when I'm actually using it and it always runs smooth and nice but if there's a way to make it save even more battery and still perform well then I wanna find out lol

I wanted to know some more about undervolting and was hoping someone could help and explain a bit. Basically, what I'm seeing is when I undervolt my device on the max side of things, eventually the device freezes and needs a battery pull or reboots. When I don't touch the max voltage values and only drop the min values the phone seems more stable and doesn't reboot. Can someone explain if my thinking of only undervolting the min values is correct and why this may be happening. Also, what would be the proper way to undervolt the phone? I have been using system tuner to do so on deck's 1.3 ROM using the Lee +sbc kernel. Thanks for taking the time to read this and for all the helpful responses.
Sent from my Decked Evo running Lee+sbc... It's easier this way.
I have this same question! I was trying to figure this out becuase the freedom kernels have something to do with under and over voltage to allow better OC? not sure on why the you would need and over voltage to over clock?...
What is your ROM/Kernel setup?
Remember that undervolting and underclocking are two different things. Over/underclocking, via apps like setcpu, raise/lower the frequency at which your processor operates. Over/undervolting raises/lowers the power voltage available to your processor at any given frequency. This can potentially cause problems if you have a kernel set to undervolt your processor while running an app like setcpu to overclock it. This may be why you are seeing issues with your phone.

OP clearly states he's running Deck's 1.3 and Tiamat 3.3.7 (aka LEE kernel)
OP should also state Deck's ROM version but I'm assuming 1.3d as it's most popular next to 1.3 Stable.
I'm running the same setup - Deck's 1.3d with LEE SBC. I'd like someone to explain (as the OP also asked) the difference between the MIN and MAX sides of the undervolting equation please.
(I do understand underclocking AND that it is a separate and different animal and for the record, my EVO is UC'd to 128/499MHz and using Smartass governor)
I'm just not sure what I'm looking at in the ST interface (what's the first number and what's the number in [] brackets?) and also not sure just why there is both a min and max voltage for each frequency and how it affects performance.
Thanks much for any inputs.

I use vipermod and terminal emulator for aosp roms its much more stable than using system tuner and you can drop all voltages with a single command it all depends on your particular hardware but typically around -100 the phone will lag or freeze i usually stick to -50 at stock voltages and -25 on overclock i never overclock over 1075mhz as anything higher and my phone tries to cook my fingers however now im oc to 1.6ghz on my et4g with a 200mhz min and it stays nice and cool like it was clocked at 1.2ghz stock the exynos is capable of clock speeds up to 2 ghz but the phone doesnt handle those speeds well similar to the evo not liking anything over 1.19 at 1.2 on the evo theres a good chance of frying the logic board or bursting the battery from heat if you overclock dont undervolt too much as it makes the processor get really really hot due to it having to work harder from lack of energy to power it

I had a similar issue with undervolting and underclocking. I was setting my CPU min/max to 128-499 MHz and undervolting to -75 or -100 using Lee with Smartass v1. But I was getting too many random reboots and freezes on each ASOP rom I tried (e.g. Deck 1.3d, CM7).
I've been playing around with these settings. I changed my CPU to 128-576, no undervolting, and SZ 2.2.1 with SavagedZen governor. I haven't had any random reboots and my batter life is about the same...plus my phone is MUCH snappier. I'm still getting a little screen on lag but not nearly as much as I was at 128-499 and undervolted.
As a note, I normally run Deck 1.3d as my daily driver but for the last couple days I've been running KWIQ. It's definitely giving 1.3d a run for its money as becoming my daily driver.
Anywho, are there any rules of thumb with undervolting and underclocking? Like is 128 MHz is too low with -100 undervolting? Or are these things pretty much phone dependent? I know each phone seems to respond different to these things.

Thank you. That made good sense to me. Question then: is it suggested/typical to drop min and max by equal amounts or is it typical to drop min more (so there's juice for the proc under load but maybe being more aggressive with the sleeping/idle side of things or can the proc run at a given frequency at different voltages)?

So I have been extremely leary of overclocking now. I am aware there are users who have OCd their phone to 1.4+
My question is how safe is when I use No frills to OC is it ramping up the volts to get that extra power. Also according to the Snapdragon layout it lists the S2 in our phones as capable of 1-1.5ghz... does this mean I could technically go up to 1.5 and be OK?

We're on the MSM8655 instead of the 8225. iirc, the difference is that it's cdma oriented as opposed to gsm
Each chip is different in what it can handle, so your best bet is to test it out, slowly. When your system starts to act funky, step down the voltage/speed levels.

Highest I can go is 1.6, but I keep it around stock or slightly underclocked, with SetCPU profiles that increase to 1.2 for games and internet apps. smartassv2 and sio for governor and scheduler.
I heard that underclocking can end up reducing battery life over time. Is there truth to this or is it just a myth?
1.6Ghz and Performance when the screen is on.
Stock when the screen is off.
Battery last all day, but I don't use heavily.

There's a large number of things that can adversely affect battery life, but by the time it becomes a problem, you'd most likely be on a new phone, anyway.

I tried my r800x at 1.6ghz (running Cyanogenmod 9 with stock kernal), and I was stuck in a boot loop that I had to fix through CWM Recovery. I am now running stable at 1.4ghz.
Yeah I'm on my 2nd xplay after I tried to oc to 1.6. My phone got extremely hot so I pulled the battery to let it cool. Upon booting my touch screen was non responsive. I don't ever go past 1.4 now.
