I was wondering why after updating from and stock Telus ROM and darksides kernel from his kernel thread to the DDW ROM my processor has been slowed down to 1.35 GHz I saw in notes he does this for safety or something but my Telus G2X has a 1.5 GHz CPU stock am I better off running my stock ROM with just a kernel. Also my 4g icon has disappeared. I also ran some bench tests before and after with those previously mentioned ROM kernel combos and I went from 1.75 overclocked to 1.35 and it shows me being slower then a stock galaxy s2 X.

Download a clock controller app from the market and set the clock to whatever you like, i use setcpu. Pretty straight forward.
The point of the underclock and undervoltage in Darksides ROM isn't to gain stability or because of a problem with stock speeds....it's only purpose is to give you better battery life.
Stability with custom ROMS is the problem you will run into when you test enough of them.
I think the most stable one I ran was Gingersnap.
Peace.
Is it safe to overclock to 1.85? Does it just suck life out of battery

Darksides kernel oc's to 1.78 ghz but comes stock at 1.35
If you torque it up all the way, the phone will def perform better but the battery life will suffer.
I was using the bullet kernel on juggernaut and it is at 1.67 ghz... Battery life went down quickly if inwas using the phone a lot.

Yeah I set it to cap at 1.52 I just hope these profiles work

dude just stop with your anti custom ROM posts. There's a reason why a lot of people use custom roms, it's been completely stable for us.
you are a case of user error

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

I just had another Tegrak update show up. It seems geared specifically towards the SGS2's or is this the same one and it somehow missed me?

So the other day I installed an unofficial version of cm9 on my Evo. As many of you know, cm comes with options to over clock out of the box. Sadly, with the stock kernel you can only go so far. I found a new kernel online, and flashed it onto my phone, only to find out it ruined the rom, forcing me to reflash cm9. I was wondering if there are any kernels that I can install to overclock my phone further? Pics included

atyoung's Mason ICS kernel should work...
May I ask why you have the desire to.overclock so violently? Most the time, underclocking will even show no loss In performance and save battery. All times I have overclocked, I've never noticed a major difference.. it may be slight but not enough for me to care..
why is your min/max the same?
The rom I downloaded is a little laggy, just wishing to speed things up a bit.

One more thing.. pegging your CPU at max ghz will eventually destroy your device. The EVO is made with a single core 1 GHz snapdragon and so anything really over 1GHz will really put a strain on your processor. Best advice would be to either flash a new kernel, ROM, or find some tweaks to decrease lag. 1.2GHz isn't healthy for your phone...
This is my first rooted device and I'd like to set the CPU frequency higher. I've read that 1600 is moderately safe and 1800 is feasible. After installing setcpu I've realized that CM10's kernel does not allow overclocking. What is the best action to take? Am I out of luck if I want to stick with CM10? Or is there another kernel I can use compatible with CM10? Thanks for reading.

Try kt kernel in original development, I've used it with great success. Has oc up to 1.89. Also allows you to under volt to save some battery. In conjunction with ktoonz kernel get voltage control from the market to adjust cpu clock and voltages.

Thanks for the suggestion. I used Leankernel all day without a single issue that isn't specific to CM10 right now.
P.S. I also upgraded the modem to I747UCLH1 from this thread. To anyone interested, test your data speed on all three modems to find the best one to keep. My rates doubled with this new modem.
Kt new kernel up. 2.1ghz ktweeker app. Running Sammy version and it's blazin fast.

Hey this might be a bit late on this thread, but Siyah has just released an updated, which works with cm10 and allows for overclocking up to 1600, and undervolting to save on that ole battery... currently for the galaxy s3
Obligatory reminder:
Not all phones are the same. Some tolerate overclock/undervolt better than others. What you WANT your phone to do may not actually be what it WILL do. Start slow, only change one step at a time. I would recommend finding the perfect oc point for your phone, then slowly, slowly working the undervolt into it.
I've tried Omega 10 with perseus 30.1, 31.2 kernel and my CPU runs mostly at 1600mhz. I used to think that problem was related to the kernel, but now I'm using ARHD 8.0 with its stock kernel and the problem is still existing. I have also full wiped even /sdcard, but it didn't help. I've used 4.1.2 stock kernel and perseus kernel 29.1 before, and the problem was not there.
Can anyone tell me what is the cause of the problem?
Thanks.
try using uneak v 1.4 kernel....and set the cpu slider to the amount of Mhz you wish...try using another cpu govenor.
i think you are using the performance gov.
i hope it could solve your problem dude
Thank you guy, but I've not change any settings such as governor (it was pegasusq all time)
Mine does as well, but yet battery life is still pretty good. I wouldn't worry about it, as when it's not actively doing anything it will quickly throttle down, not to mention the other cores.

You mean although the cpu runs mostly at 1600mhz, the battery life is still good and normal? If so, I will give them a new try.

No, as in it will complete the task earlier and throttle down sooner.

So... what speed do you want?
I think that is not normal speed as other people have. Normally it should run among several frequencies, but mine always run at 1600mhz.

Actually I don't get why people underclock their phone, if u do this for better battery life, why dont u buy a sucker phone and a big pack of juice?
The main things i need in a kernel is something that can be overclocked to 1.9 ghz and something that has good battery and it is smooth i have a aocp rom with android 4.2.2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I would go for the devil kernel, you can OC that to 2.0 ghz but that will kill your battery real quick. Its a great kernel, smooth, stable and good battery life. I would also recommend downloading trickster mod kernel control app so you can control voltages and all that fun stuff. Make sure to use the tOlte DUAL (the third one down) unless you want CWM recovery installed, then you would use the top tOlte recovery zip.

Im runnig persus ver 3.0.36 but I am using a stock jb 4.1.2 I have the device undervolted starting about a point to two points on the undervolting scale all the way to the top of the scale. And im overclocked @1800 again this is on a stock jb 4.1.2 so im not sure about aocp. But I will say my battery life is amazing two days on a charge and my device runs very smooth.
