Does anyone know how to over clock you're DI to say 1.2? Thanks for any help.
You first need to root your phone, then install a kernel that is compatible with whatever rom you are using, then you need to install an OCing app like SetCPU and adjust accordingly.
I'm rooted running the 2.2 RUU and I have set cpu. So do I just need a kernal? Which one?
i reccomend King Kernel bfs #4, best freaken kernel ever... its located... here
so when i install this kernal is it ok to just bump the cpu speed up to 1.2? are there any guides to do this?

A lot of factors come into play when you start overclocking, every rom will respond differently.
The first thing to do before anything is to do a complete nandroid back up.
When overclocking keep in mind that the more you overclock the more chances you have of making your system unstable.
I have experimented a quite a bit and I have found that the King Kernal #4 seems to work well for me and at 1.2 it seems to be pretty stable. Any higher than that and my phone will sometimes re-boot itself for no apparent reason.
Again, your rom may handle things different so experiment and see what works best for you.
And remember - Do a complete backup first!
I'm using the number 4 kernal and it only goes to 1.19 is this what you mean by 1.2? I have to keep mine at 1.1 ghz at 1.19 my di gets unstable
Ya that's as high as they can oc these chips. I can only get to 115 safely 119 just crashes. But the charging experience will be better than stock with the BFS #4.

Could you guys please tell me what your settings for setcpu are?
I want better battery life and a faster cpu but im noticing that my phone almost needs a wake up time when i come out of screen off.
Thanks so much

If you are experiencing slow wake up, try increasing the min cpu speed to something around 460. Better batt life and increased speed takes a lot of experimenting. Your OC speed might differ from others due to differences in the phones cpu. For example, I have never been able to oc to 1.19 without the phone freezing or rebooting. My phone can handle 1152 but 1113 is perfect. In my opinion, ROMs have something to due with best batt-speed combo. I am running Ruby 1.1.1 with a setcpu profile of Screen off=245 without any wake lag. Other ROMs I have tried had wake up lag at that speed profile.
My set up:
(ROM-ASOP) Ruby 1.1.1
King's #1 ASOP "I told you so"- only works with ASOP
With the ROM's "Gem" performance scaling setting off, I use setcpu to OC to 1113, min is 245. I have a profile set to SCREEN OFF = 384 max/245 min.
I haven't worried about battery life since I started using King's kernals (I've tried them all with every compatible ROM on xda). I have several posts elsewhere on XDA showing 12 plus hours on a single bump charge and heavy phone use. Good enough for me. Stock cpu speed plus Sense ROM seems slow to me now.....to each his own though.
I hope to get some help because i value the opinions of those on this forum. Currently i am running virtuous 2.7 with virt. kernal v2. I am rooted, s-off, 2.15.xx radio. I want performance without draining my battery. What are the best settings to use in setcpu?
I did try king's kernal #4, but it was rebooting. switched kernals this morning.
One other app I use in conjunction with SetCPU is MinFreeManager. This will readjust your free ram to a higher standard. But with SetCPU I have it at 1113/Ondemand with no custom profiles. One other thing I really don't set is the Set on Boot option. I don't know why but I do. So with SkyRaider Vanilla 3.0 RC3/ KingX Kernel #4/ and MinFreeManager my phone fly's. I can't say for certain what settings you need for your phone but 1113-1115 is preferred by "most" phones and keep the set on boot option off. I keep a Galaxy S live wallpaper running and pandora while browsing the web and no lag what-so-ever.
CyanogenMod 6.0.2 and KingX kernel #1 with the same setup runs almost as smooth.
Hope this helps you out.
I have a HAVS kernel (Net's 4.2.2 SBC CFS Aggressive HAVS) and as I understand it any sort of CPU Tweaking application will cause conflict and probably a system crash, correct?
Also, can some recommend me any applications that compliment Juice Defender well. I have Juice Plotter already. I am looking for an aggressive auto task killer that's customizable along with any other suggested applications. Thank you!
A system crash is a possibility but they will basically just counteract each other and either make your battery life worse or give a performance hit.
SetCPU helps dynamically underclock/overclock based on certain scenarios. You can set what scenarios you want. Another option is AutoKiller. It isn't Auto Task Killer. Its a different application. Not quite sure how this works but you can research it. However Froyo does a good job managing most applications.
But if you are looking for customization I would go with SetCPU and AutoKiller
Thank's however since I'm running a HAVS kernel I won't use SetCPU. However I will look into Autokiller. Thanks

o.o a ton of people use set cpu with havs... its not setting voltages... its setting the cpu speed...
I just installed setcpu and ran it. My phone crashed about 10 seconds after I allowed root access. Tried twice more with same results.

Its the governors that conflict. Not sure on the exact technical specifics but think of it like OCing a comp.
Some mobos have dynamic OCing. They adjust voltages based on CPU draw. If SetCPU sets CPU speed but HAVS reduces voltage... it would cause a crash. Its always better to have one thing deal with both CPU and voltage.
I'm not a full blown expert with kernels and how they function. All I know is to not mess around with SetCPU + HAVS kernels. It was always unstable or a massive battery drain for me based on my testing.

Setcpu does not do anything that a user with root access and terminal emulator can't. Setcpu does not actively do anything related to cpu speed or voltage in way shape or form. What setcpu does do is set the min and max speed the cpu can scale to and the parameters specific to the governor (up-threshold for one).
The governors also don't conflict with setcpu because setcpu does not do anything that a governor does.
The only things setcpu does is allow you to specify what governors and cpu speeds to use during screen on/off, charging, and battery levels through the use of a gui.
Technically setcpu does not interfere with havs its the settings that cause the issues. Again, what setcpu does any root user with te can do. If you issue the wrong settings in te and your device "crashes" is the user going to blame the settings or te? With the way some people are they would probably claim te interferes with havs instead of realizing that the setting combo they issued is not stable.
Setcpu is a great gui to tweak cpu parameters but don't confuse it with an app that actually controls the dynamic cpu frequency scaling or its voltages.

Ahh there. someone more knowledgable then me explains it perfectly.
I've run set cpu plus haves kernel for the last month... as have almost everyone using savagedzen.. thats what they recommend. If it was causing issues i am sure we would know by now. 100%stable... 0 random reboots! (well... accept for when i didn't follow directions xD)

I believe you and am not discrediting you but how come when I run SetCPU on a kernel with HAVS, it crashes? (Tried 4.3.1 and 4.2.2.) I moved the maximum value from the default 944 by maybe one or 2 notches up and the device freezes and crashes. Maybe Netarchy's kernels aren't compatible with CPU Tweaking programs? Anyone out there running a Netarchy Kernel w/ HAVS + SetCPU successfully?

Again, it is not setcpu it is your settings. You said you moved the slider "one or two notches up" (overclock) from the default 944? The evos default max is 998. Either way, with what you said you are overclocking and your device cannot handle the overclocked speed.
Like I said, you can do the exact same thing that setcpu does through terminal emulator. Instead of blame setcpu you should observe the speed/governor combo you are using.
I can oc my evo to 1.26 on my personal kernel without it rebooting on certain governors but on others it would reboot randomly and I don't set cpu parameters through setcpu, I use te, init scripts, and tasker.

Couldn't have said it better. The common misconception around these parts is that SetCPU has some negative effect on kernels with HAVS and this is just untrue.
Maybe I'm getting some terrible luck. I've always gotten negative results from using both SetCPU and HAVS. Tried different settings and recommended settings from others. As well as trying to tweak it myself. Not working so I just removed it and HAVS worked better on its own.
Sorry for the misinformation.

The common practice with setcpu is to use it to underclock when sleeping. Depending on the governor you use (besides powersave) you are actually causing the cpu to struggle when completing tasks if you limit the max to 245 for example. During sleep if it needs to perform a task and that task would normally complete in 1 second at 998 mhz imagine how much longer it would take if it was capped at 245.
I have had better results not underclocking while sleeping. I would suggest using setcpu to specify to use the conservative governor when sleeping, ondemand/interactive/smartass when screen on (depending on which one you want), and interactive/ondemand while charging without under/overclocking at all and using the default freqs (245 - 998). I'm certain you would be surprised at how your evo behaves after that.
I don't know though... if race to idle applied here why would phone manufacturers ever under clock their phone? It kind of confuses me. Rti applies to computers but not phones? doesn't make sense.

My last post may have been a bit confusing so I will clarify. When I said underclock I was referring to the practice of capping the max freq to 245 which is what most people do. If you cap the freq at 245 you are essentially underclocked all the time and would cause your cpu to work harder.
The evo underclocks automatically when the cpu load is low enough (idle for example) to save on power, reduce temps, and to basically keep the system running. But I would assume that most of us who have used setcpu have seen how lousy the evo runs when it can't scale up (locked at 245) when using the evo. The governors will underclock the cpu on their own if the device reports it does not need the higher freqs and this occurs during sleep/screen off as well.
Ugh this is quite frustrating. Perhaps it's the current kernel I'm using that's the problem?

Have you done testing to make sure your phone plays well with the more aggressive kernel? If using SetCPU is causing your phone to reboot then you may want to adjust your overclock, switch to the less aggressive kernel, or update to the newest netarchy SBC powered kernel; 4.3.2.

I'm not sure how I would go testing my kernel? I mean I've been using it since yesterday morning and there haven't been any FC's/phone crashes or anything strange so I guess the aggressive HAVS works well with my phone. I'll try upgrading to 4.3.2. I'm assuming it works fine for you?

This.
Very sound advice and yes some evos can't undervolt as well as others. Always remember too that the stock kernel for the evos use CFS. If you are using a bfs kernel that could also cause issues. Some evos run better with bfs versus cfs but it's really going to come down to the amount of time you want to put into testing and confirming what your evo likes.

Yeah, it does. How far are you trying to overclock before your phone freezes/reboots?
What are the safe/stable clockspeeds for underclocking and overclocking my Desire Z? Also, what app do I use? Like, I don't mind paying for the app (as long as it's not too expensive)
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
SetCPU can be used to overclock if you're rooted. Depending on the ROM and Kernel combination, overclocking to about 1.3ghz is usually safe. Some go up to 1.5ghz or even 1.8ghz, but are often quite unstable depending on other configurations you have in your ROM.
As far as underclocking goes, some custom kernels clock all the way down to 122mhz, I've been using a streamline5 kernel on CM7 (which offers 122mhz min) and haven't had any ill effects with this.
I have the Virtuous Sense ROM (with it's default kernel, although it does have other kernels which can give other cpu speeds), right now but might try out another ROM soon (maybe) do you know what's the min and safe max for this ROM?
Also, can I just set a particular clock speed (e.g. 500MHz) and it should be ok or is there any stability difference between say 500MHz and 505MHz? Just curious. I looked at SetCPU and it looks like a good one. Also, if the clock speed I set makes things go wrong, can I revert it or can I get stuck with it and need to do a wipe?

No, there's no need to set a particular clock speed. Just whatever works for you. I wouldn't recommend going under 800mhz, as the phone will really really bog down even with normal use.
I haven't used that particular ROM, but I'm assuming anywhere around 1.3ghz should be safe on the upper limit. Like I said before, anything above that might start to cause issues. You might also want to consider the battery life implications of severe overclocking.
You can change the clock speed any time you want. If you're having wakeup or heat or any other issues just go back to SetCPU and change the max clock speed again. You can also use profiles in SetCPU to change the clock speed when the phone is overheating, or when the screen is off, or when the battery gets to a certain %. There are tons of posts detailing how others have setup their SetCPU profiles.
One last note, don't forget to check the box for "Set on Boot" in SetCPU, this way your changes aren't undone on reboot.
Thank, I think I got everything I need to know in your last reply
I'm on CM7, with the CM7 kernel, and clocked in at 1.5GHz, and have no problems, and the rom is super fast. And I use SetCPU.
Notes about Battery Saver script
Can be used with kernels that have init.d support
It completely eliminates the need for an application to set CPU speeds or profiles
Easily customizable if you use a text editor(scripts located in /system/etc/init.d)
It will set Max CPU speed to 500MHz & Min CPU speed to 200MHz when a sleep
If SetCPU, Overclock Widget, Android Overclock or QuickClock Advanced Overclock are detected, the script is ignored, so it will not affect them
Preset profiles are:
1.2GHz - 100-85%
1.0GHz - 84-36%
800MHz - 35-0%
And just an FYI, even at 800MHz, the phone still operates very well & smooth but the battery saving are the real benefit

Does this mean that if I don't use Set CPU or any app that undervolt it, the phone will AUTOMATICALLY drop the CPU speed according to my battery level:
1.2GHz - 100-85%
1.0GHz - 84-36%
800MHz - 35-0%
Another word, it will automatically drop CPU speed to 800 MHZ when my battery level is 35-0% in order to save battery?
It won't "Drop" the CPU speed, it will lower the Maximum speed the CPU is allowed to ramp up to.

So if I am not doing CPU intensive stuff and just play simple games, email, web surfing phone call, then I am not going to see battery improvement since my CPU probably don't ramp past 800MHZ anyway when I am just doing simple stuff.?
Calk's ROM undervolts the CPU at all speeds so that in itself should help a little with battery life. But you are correct, if you are not doing CPU intensive tasks the CPU probably isn't spending much time at the higher speeds.
There is an app called CPUSpy which shows how much time the CPU has spent in each frequency state.
Your phone will ramp up to 1200 mhz more than you think. When it loads a webpage, it will ramp up to 1200, when it's loading your "simple" game, it will max out for a bit, etc.
It might not stay there for very long, but still. The nice thing about Calkuins rom is that even at 800 mhz, the phone is super smooth and lag free. In fact I just turn setcpu down to 800 all the time.
Let me research setcpu and play around with it. Thanks again for the quick answers.

The way Calkulin's rom scripts are setup, setcpu gets reset on every reboot, even if you have it set to boot settings. The scripts installed will still take priority and the old rules apply, just to let you know. So you would have to set setcpu every boot for it to work, that or remove the scripts.

I am running Calks 2 and desperado kernel. I notice when using setcpu, if you have it set on boot, it will override calks script.
His script does work well on saving battery life though. I ran oc'd while at 20% and still had 1700mhz blazing on performance gov.
I'd still use Calks script over setcpu or tegrak only due to the fact im too sporatic with my phone use to create optimal profiles to fit the way and when i need to use the device.

Actually in my own testing setcpu will not override the scripts, the slider may stay the same, but trust me, it goes back to 800 (or 1200 over 86%batt), Ive tested it several times.

Era, what's your suggestion for keeping the battery saving scripts running and getting a 1500 ish over clock when needed... something that can do both without having to physically change setcpu everytime. I basically want to permanently over clock to 1.5 and still save as much battery as possible when i have the screen off or it is charging. Idk if setcpu profiles work on this phone because i know they did not work correctly on the galaxy s. And one final question... what voltages do u run at what speeds on the "desperado" kernel to undervolt efficiently?

I'm currently running Calkulin's rom v2.5, and even at 41% battery I notice the cpu still hits 1.2 Ghz. Is his script activated by default or am I overlooking something? I also have nothing like setcpu installed.
Does anyone have any recommended kernel settings they'd like to share? I've been changing things around a little but I'm too afraid to make any big differences as I don't want to ruin anything. Any recommended GPU clock settings would also be appreciated!
Also, I see people mentioning they're overclocking their phone a lot. Does overclocking on this phone mean it constantly stays overclocked until you change the settings back or does it change frequencies as needed to a maximum frequency that you set?

Hey When you OC lets say to 1800mhz . That means your proccesor can Amp up to 1800 mhz if needed. Your phone will always idle when its a sleep. My setting are 100mhz UC and 1800mhz OC. Gpu is also Oc to 640mhz. I use pegasusq for governor and cfq or zen for scheduler. I also use eco mode . I get very good battery life and performance.
Also...what apps are you guy using for this? Seems most use trickster... Wondering if anyone has experience with others.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 4
I would use whatever the developer of your rom/kernel recommends (which is Trickster most of the time)
Anyone know what eco mode does? I've been looking it up but all I've been getting is this guy's kernel that he named 'eco'
Also, for anyone reading this thread with a similar question to mine I'd heavily recommend using Zen over CFQ as a scheduler because it's much smoother and no jitters/stutters (at least in my experience)
Sent from my SGH-I317
I'm curious what Eco does as well. Tried looking it up, but didn't find anything useful.
Trying out Zen...been getting some annoying hangups and jitters with this kernal. UC 100 OC 1704. And FYI...I've used the stock clocks and still got the same lag and lockups and screen freezes. Also tried on demand gov.
Could it be that ZRAM is enabled? Not quite sure the benefits of it.

Do you have eco mode enabled? Also, maybe you should look into Seeder. It sounds like it's perfect for the kind of problems you're having. Or you could change your minimum voltage from 100 to 200, I heard 100 can be kind of buggy sometimes
