Overclock - 1802mhz CPU, 512mhz GPU - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I ran Quadrant Pro at 1802mhz on the CPU and 512mhz on the GPU (Franco Kernel & Jelly Belly ROM)
This was the result.

Did your phone explode? Because I don't see a picture.

And you posted this here..... Why?

thats lousy! id be embarrassed to show that off to people. i suggest a kernel change. anyways, that post does not belong here in development, nor anywhere near development heres trinity at 1728mhz..

LMAO! Damn you simms

can't beat simms at his own game =P

First off, that's embarrassingly low. I've gotten 4,000+ at 1.6GHz. Second why the hell did you post that in this section? I thought you needed 10 posts to post in a dev forum. Mods please close and OP read the damn rules.

lol, unfortunately not true though. there are a few that know how.
i just think that anybody running at 1802mhz should know how to propery use it or not be allowed to run that high of an oc. i mean, the op isnt getting any benefit from it unless you call a higher rate of battery loss a benefit. learn how to benefit from a high oc like this, or dont use it. its pointless to show off that youre using a high oc if a slightly oc'd(1344mhz kernel) can run laps around your phone. dont get me wrong, i know that franco kernel is capable, but this does it no justice.

Then someone do tell me a good kernel and how to do a proper OC thats stable, efficient etc etc.. Im **** at OC'ing.. i just put franco kernel 512mhz and was allowed the option to go 1802mhz, which ive never seen before..

Franco Kernel is a great kernel, yo must be doing wrong. I have achieved that score with franco's at 1.3 OC and Stock JB ROM...

try them all, or a few different kernels at least. every phone is different, and will react differently to different kernels. also, just because you can oc to 1802, doesnt mean that your phone will properly handle it. at this point, it looks like you arent getting any of the gain from this high oc(some loss actually), but are going through your battery like you are. first off, at that high oc, turn off thermal throttling if you are going to benchmark. play with adjusting voltages until you find your sweet spot at that oc. try ocing less too, your phone might not like 1802, or 1700, or 1600.. not many phones do. also, when you benchmark, benchmark with your hiest cpu speed/highest cpu speed(1802/1802) so that you dont scale and actually bench 1802mhz.

very likely youre right.

Not even worth overclocking honestly.
Only for benchmark scores, your phone most likely doesn't run that much faster.

funny, only people that dont overclock say that, i guess they really do believe it for themselves. but in reality, there is a difference. if its a slight overclock, its not that different. when its a big overclock, the difference can be dramatic.

I have overclocked before, I've done it before on the GNex as well.
I mean it was a huge increase of ability to a single core phone and early dual cores but for a phone already seemingly perfect on the software side, the phone already screams as stock clock speeds.
Besides, is it worth the probable loss of battery life? A marginally higher benchmark score? Things opening 1 or 2ms faster?
This is all just my opinion, I have no hard facts behind all this, but at least in my own personal testing and experimenting, there was no obvious benefit.
Provided you might be right, I've never OC'ed past 1.5, but beyond that, what's the effect on the health of the hardware, and like I said, battery life?
I could be totally wrong and I'm not against admitting being wrong.
Just personal preference I guess.

agreed. i myself use stock frequencies on franco kernel i've used almost all kernels and roms possible but now i've stuck with aokp n franco smooth even when under-clocked to 1 Ghz. i find no point of oc'ing other than just benchmarking usually get 3.4-3.3K on quadrant with normal freq.

[Q] (SOLVED!) Overclock the Defy?

*SOLVED*
Milestone Overclock - a free download from the marketplace does now support the Defy. Quadrant shows promising figures for sure.
Just wondering whether anyone has gotten the Defy to Overclock?
I've been trying some Droid Overclock apps as well as purchasing Set CPU.
I've successfully rooted my phone which is a requirement for enabling overclocking features. Set CPU won't even start.
None of the apps I've tried have been working properly.
Any tips?
in developement
Look on the milestone overclock googlecode page, its on the todo list
good to know
Yepp, thanx a lot. Since the chipset has clear OC potential this will be very interesting. Especially if the Defy has an omap3630 core, we'll see.

I'm pretty confident that it does indeed have a 3630: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9540564&postcount=34
Not only because of the screenshot from windows, but look at how close it is to the Droid X, running a 1ghz 3630.
Wow! and getting that benchmark score while running on 800MHz is quite impressive. I've got good hopes that a ported Milestone Overclock will unleash the raw power the phone truly possess.
And this is not the best defy can do. Actually 1117 has been reported from 2 users (one is me).
Im not sure how this phone is so amazing, and so cheap at the same time
umm yeah anyways, just wanted to say i got quadrant scored of around 1110 to 1118 ish i think- after task killing
Really hoping for some custom 2.2 roms in the near future, like some others said it will make this probably -one of- the best androids out there

weeeeell to be fair there was a little cheat there, that was with JIT enabled. But JIT by the standard method wasn't stable, at first it was fine but then after ab out an hour I started to get random force closes, so I reverted. Its a little insight to what can be achieved with JIT. IMO I'll take JIT over a 1GHZ overclock.
Could anyone of you guys share your benchmark results after running Milestone Overclock? I'm now running on 1.2GHz and it's stable

My first benchmark result was in mid 1000 but after a restart I got that score too.
To use JIT is better wait for froyo because have it in native form. There are a appl called JITTER in the market but I think that isn't reliable. (I don't know about other appl similar than)
Now I use the Milestone Overclock beta4 and configure the oc at 1000/56
Someone have better configuration to use? Can explain why?
Hey guys.. Overclocked my Defy with the Milestone Overclock. 1200/66
Got a 1438 benchmark on Quadrant Standard. Putting the vsel any lower got my Device to reboot.
After trying it out I switched back to 1000/52 because some users said that running on 66vsel could damage the CPU.
Main effect I had: Launcher runs very smooth, My battery life went down to 24 hours (37h before).
With 1000/52 I still get a benchmark around 1247
Works for me because I´m saving battery and still got enough power to have a smooth launcher.
But: Can anyone please tell me what the standard settings are ? *lol* Forgot them 800Mhz an vsel=???
Thx in advance.

Someone in the other thread was running 800/38, I haven't tried it because like you 1000/52 gives me better battery life than stock and more power on top.

I just wanted to know the original settings in case I wanted to restore them someday.
Or do I just have to click on "unload module" for that ?!? (I gues that´s it I was just to blind/dumb to see it *lol*)

Yeah just unload module and untick apply on boot and your back to stock
Im currently running 1100MHZ with a 58vsel, seems stable so far and got a quadrant benchmark of 1317. But i am wondering if this setting is safe for long term use, I need my phone to last till the end of this conract

[Benchmark] Results for all ROMs

State your ROM w/version, your CPU in GHz, and your kernel (if changed)...
HTC Incredible 2 - Stock OTA (Gingerbread 2.3.3):
Linpack: 42 Mflops
Quadrant: 1550
Sunspider: 3,350 ms
HTC Incredible 2 - Stock (Froyo 2.2.1):
Linpack: 37 Mflops
Quadrant: 1550
Sunspider: 6,200 ms
About: I could not find an official Incredible 2 benchmark thread. Now that ROM development is progressing, why not start one? So many comments are made about how fast a ROM feels, and I know that raw numbers don't completely convey this, but a comparison would still be beneficial. Please do three runs of each, and average them.
The main 3 benchmarks I'll start with is Linpack, Quadrant (both apps), and Sunspider (web browser JS benchmark).

Quadrant- 1450
Linpack- Around 40

I really hope I'm not opening the troll floodgates, but why would you want to overclock your phone?
Doesn't it sacrifice battery life? What applications require OC'ing?

That's insane for the Dinc2. I'm looking forward to a conservative overclock on a stable AOSP rom once I can get one. CM7, or OMFGB. I've had problems with OMFGB though so I went back to stock.

What about comparing performance implies OC'ing? If you want to compare 2 cars do you have to increase their horsepower first? To me this thread is more about comparing benchmarks on different roms with similar clock speeds (OC or not) to allow people to get an idea of how one might compare to another performance wise.
Unofficial Aokp build 38 - aerovan v10.5 - 1113600khz - smart ass v2 - -1 step across the board for voltage

They surely aren't "useless" but they don't mean everything. If a phone gets a 2000 quadrant score it most likely will outperform a phone that gets 1500.

If I post that I got a 2500 how do you know what I have going on with my phone? That is my point and the point of people who have called out scores. I can leave the phone completely bare with nothing going on and OC it well beyond comfort level just to get a higher score.

That's true. You just have to take benchmarks with a grain of salt and look at the other info given. If it doesn't look right then there's probably something up.

With that being said - maybe people can add a brief statement regarding if the rom they are posting about has been running on their phone for a while (ie, loaded with daily apps) or if it is a clean load.

Thanks to you zedomax! I am running just his kernel, without a custom ROM on top, and I love this thing. It is rock stable at 1.6GHz.
Correct me if I am wrong, but this sure looks like, at least for now, I am the highest score on AnTuTu with an E4GT. Am I right?

Just imagine if we could get the 60fps cap off our phones
I guess that's what I get for trying, but I did say to limit this to E4GT only, so the SGS2 with the 7700+ doesn't count.
I will also state I ran mine exactly the same way I run it every day, with widgets running and such. SO I will go back and tweak what I can and see what I get. At the time, though, I thought it was cool.

Pardon me, I misread.
So how about some advice and pointers? Your RAM is one thing that is killing me, and if I were able to get 1650-1700MHz I figure the CPU figures will help themselves. My read/write is dead on with yours. So what do I do to get to those speeds and that much free RAM? I am running Tegrak as well. And other than the zedomax kernel and root, everything else is stock.

I don't trust any kernel that isn't based off of stock pulled at this point. I have social hub, media hub, and all the drm apps frozen. I think I have the odexed nociq mod but that might've gone away when I had to revert to a nandroid backup not sure. Don't use a live wallpaper.. That's about all I can think of really. Every phone is different so we could have the exact same setup and get different scores.

[Q] Undervolt Settings?

I'm currently on CM10+LeanKernel, and while my battery life is great as it is I was just curious to hear other opinions/settings/etc.
Now, I know this obviously varies greatly across each and every device, but I just wanted to get an idea of what generally works well for everyone?
I would try it out on my own but ever since coming from my Vibrant (It worked great with UV at first, but it would slowly but surely just not take to it anymore and I eventually just had to stick with stock voltage settings), I'm sort of hesitant to get started without others opinions.
Thanks in advance everyone!
Anyone...?

I lower my voltage to reduce the heat being generated. I go about 125 across the board with lean and faux kernel.
And using the stress test feature on SetCPU it goes forever without rebooting so i feel comfortable with stability.
Honestly if you run supercharger scripts, remove bloat, you can keep core clocks to around 1.25max and 485 the lowest without any jitters or pauses, from my recent testing. This was on FreeGS3R6 and Trinity Kernel
I did not however find out what the lowest max clock-speed was before i noticed any slowdowns in user experience....but i will now be looking into this!

All supercharger does is change minfree values. OOM groupings and things with memory. No CPU tweaks are happening. Just clarifying
I would be very careful with UV as it can cause permanent damage to the chips. I think I undervolted my gs3 too much and ever since then my phone has been laggy no matter what rom I flash.

Ive done some research before i started undervolting and this is the first time im hearing of such a claim.
Im running LiquidSmooth with ktoonsez kernel and im smooth without reboots with -125mV across the board.
With faux i was stable to only -100mV

I agree. I researched as well, and only read that overvolting(to increase performance) was the only thing to cause a chip to loose life cycle. Not performance.
my undervolt settings
Im testing out l.k. for a couple days and thought id sgare my voltages

so far your voltages have not given me any issues....i have Trials2 the game which ill be testing in a few hours and see if i have any issues jumping in and outta the game through various tasks and let people know....as far as general use these voltages are working spiffy indeed!
after my game testing ill see if i can drop any of them lower and run the test again. but certainly digging this!
Im on Codename(Android)3.6.6 its DAMN fast rom...

I lower my voltage to reduce the heat being generated. I go about 125 across the board with lean and faux kernel.
And using the stress test feature on SetCPU it goes forever without rebooting so i feel comfortable with stability.

I gave your settings a shot, it worked well for maybe 15 minutes? Left my phone alone for a bit, then turned my screen on again and noticed a MASSIVE amount of lag. Rebooted to get my stock voltage settings.
I'm now at -50 across the board, and seem to be pretty stable.
I've already seen some benefits from just that little UV as well.
Before the UV, I was getting ~20-25 hours on one charge. (Again, for those curious, I'm on CM10+LeanKernel.)
After UV: sitting at 61% and going on 20 hours and 19 min.
This is with Wi-Fi/GPS/sync on, auto brightness, OC at 1.67ghz.
Light-Medium usage, lots of texting, random checking of email/Facebook/instagram.
I'm definitely gonna experiment and see what my thresholds/limits are.
I'm pretty sure I can push it more.

Nice man, I'll give these a shot! Thanks!
I'm contemplating making a really simple image/chart with stable under volt statistics, and their respective ROM/kernel combinations.
Sent using buttery goodness.
At the very end, my dumb ass tried adjusting my UV even lower. No idea why, I genuinely wasn't thinking though. But yeah, it crashed on me which is why it randomly drops off like that.

But yeah.
41 hours on a single charge.
Wi-Fi and GPS are both on.
This is on auto brightness. This is also with lots of texting/instagram/facebook/tapatalk.
I forgot to close out of Chrome, which is why it was my main drain.
This is with me overclocking at 1.72ghz, and really light UV at -50mV across the board.
I know for a fact I can go more aggressive while still keeping it stable.

How on earth is this possible?

I have an XPERIA Arc LT15i. Single-core 1-GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM (much less available to the user, though). I've tried different ROMs, and the highest that I'd ever got on the Antutu benchmark was somewhere in the 5000s. Usually, though, it hovers between 4400 and 4800-ish. I tried a CM10-based MIUI ROM a while back, however, and the Antutu scores were completely off the charts.

I'm wondering how it's possible for a 1-GHz single-core processor to match a much superior (dual-core) processor (the Optimus 2X) in terms of performance. Or are these benchmarks, which the myriads of review sites out there use to make comparisons between phones, actually rubbish? I'd love to have some clarifications/opinions.
On arc s overclocked to 1.6 running CM10 and a Fusion kernel I'm getting 6250 without rebooting before benchmark and with a few processes running in a background.
edit
I'll try with stock 1.4 and report results.
edit
6148 on 1.4ghz. Also keep in mind that anyone can install a GB rom with kernel that supports overclocking up to 2.0ghz to get even bigger score. Arc s is still a pretty capable device.
edit
Oh you were talking about arc not arc s xD But my point is still true because there is only 400mhz of difference between these phones.
NEVER use Antutu or any other benchmark tools to determine the performance. Benchmark score can easily get cheated by overclocking, increasing memory read ahead or using different IO scheduler

But its not cheating... I agree that benchmarks are not really that accurate and every score should be taken with a grain of salt but overclocking is not cheating. Cheating would be making a modifications to antutu apk for bigger scores.
Thank you for your opinions. However, I've never overclocked the processor on my phone to this date. The mere thought gives me the jitters. What if it burns out? Going by those scores, maybe the ROM overclocked the processor itself without my knowing. Have any of you tried overclocking, though? And, have you noticed any difference in performance or stability issues? Maybe the battery would drain out quicker, too.

If you have read my previous post you would know everything that you asked. On CM10 I'm getting more than 6000 points in antutu without any overclocking (arc s CPU's frequency is 1.4ghz) : D Its not that scores on CM10 are high its just that scores on stock firmware are low. Sony's software is bloated and ****ty in overall.
Overclocking is safe if you are doing it with brain. If you set Arc CPU (1ghz) to 2ghz it will fry for sure but setting it to 1.2 should be perfectly safe. Overclocked phone drains battery faster but its pretty obvious everything is stable and a little smoother.

No, I would NOT have known everything that I'd asked. My question was whether there were any stability or battery-drain issues with overclocking, but none of those queries were addressed on your previous post.
But thanks for the clarifications on the scores. Yes, stock ICS is absolute rubbish, that's why I've moved on to CM10/Jelly Bean. It doesn't have the "customizations" you can get with stock ICS, but it's smooth, responsive, fluid, and that's what matters to me.
By the way, I do believe 400 MHz SHOULD make quite a bit of a difference. A 600-MHz processor and a 1-GHz processor wouldn't be giving a similar performance. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Overclocking your Arc to 1.4GHz should be a clearly visible upgrade but I'm not sure if this would be healthy for your phone. It's almost 50% more in performance but under heavy load this could cause some high temperatures and degradation of your phone's battery and cpu life. My Arc s is clocked at 1.6 all the time and it doesn't even gets too hot while playing games so 200MHz more seems right and safe to me.
edit
Values described in this post as "safe" or "best" may not be the same for you so google everything before making any changes to your phone.
