GPU overclocked to 384 vs 512 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I have yet to see any benchmark or performance difference between the two. I'm testing battery life currently to see if it makes a difference. Any thoughts? Does 512 over clock really bring differences vs 384 and does it hurt ocing gpu by that much?

Fwiw I'm running b29 + Franco's latest nightly 512 gpu currently.

Overclocking will always have trade-offs.
For increased GPU performance, you will likely see a battery hit.

oc evo

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

My best battery life is on AOSP ROM's with this set up on tiamat kernel.

[Q] Highest Stable Overclock? (On JB)

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.

I can get 1500 MHz on faux kernel, 1800 crashes 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.

Because I can. Because Android fills my daily fix of tinkering and tweaking.

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.
Well the faster CPU helps with n64 emulation some games need a bit more omph to play smooth

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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.

CPU Speeds

What are the best CPU Speeds for the Play? and why?
Elaborate. You don't say what you're using it for. For normal use? 245MHz to 1GHz works great for me (stock speed)
For gaming 700Mhz to 1400Mhz max.

I'm currently using 245 MHz - 1.5 GHz with SmartAssV2. Great performance and battery life. =)

Good for games and daily use.
OndemandX?? SmartassV2's better for all of that.

I'm testing Superbad governor right now and I'm liking it, but it's a kind of Smartass v2.
I think the best maximum frecuency is 1.2GHz because gives a 20% boost with mild battery drain, but with some undervolting you can go up to 1.4GHz or 1.5GHz because undervolting relieves the extra power consume.
but still i dont understand what is governor function ? what is the difference between all those governor ? what each of the governor do . for example what is the difference between smartassv2 and ondemand .
@kuro... To better understand the govs I suggest taking a look @ wedgess kernel posts. He basically has them broken down & describes what each one does or how they work.

Any GPU Overclocking Kernels for...

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
Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
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.

Does it make sense to overclock cpu or gpu?

Hi every1 i have a question doesn't make sense to overclock cpu or gpu or maybe both?
What i mean is how big difference is after oc?
If so which kernel is the best for it and how's battery drain?
Over clocking is not really needed as it's fast enough already.
