Over clocking - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Do I just need to flash a kernel to OC my phone? What's the max you can OC this phone to? What's the best OC kernel if that's what you have to do? I'm running stock with root.

depends what kernel you're running. go look at kernels in the original android development thread and see which kernels are able to be overclocked. gl :good:

You will be back in this Q&A thread real soon after you start flashing modified kernels and your phone stops working properly. LOL

Lmfao yea. Kernels are a tricky business if your not familiar with it then don't even mess with it. The phone is fast even when under clocked so Idk why you'd wanna over clock it. All it does is make your phone hot and drain your battery. Not to mention it could cause damage to your phones cpu

It's more based on how the rom works, and the kernel yes helps with CPU and GPU scores but I noticed his GPU scores are lower than mine, one of the nation reasons I'm still stock. Because it's probably persues kernel and has issues with FPS in real world and quadrant performance.
He probably ran it 1600/1600 on performance or something on those lines
Edit: this is mine stock rooted GPU much better than his, until persues can match this without overclocking the GPU just to get the same performance I do on stock I'm not switching.

Maybe you should consider that you're not the brightest, most experienced person in this thread before talking smack.
Exposing a component to more heat means you are shortening its life, there is no doubt about that. Those with overclocked desktop CPUs often have elaborate setups with overclocking in mind. You can't add a better heatsink, or a fan to your phone. Mobile CPUs, especially, are designed to be efficient at a certain range of clock frequencies. Moving it too far from the norm means you eventually see diminishing returns.
I've fried everything from my first Commodore 64 to my current box, and everything in between. If you think the phone can function at that level for an extended period of time without failure, best of luck to you.

Dude it was part of the whole meaning of rooting and tweaking. Checking different settings for a little bit, testing them and then reverting back to defaults. I will never leave overclocked/ undervolted or vice-versa settings for a whole day... its just part of the fun of tweaking and experimenting with our devices...

I am all for overclocking, modding, tweaking, hacking, etc. Breaking **** is the best way to learn. But that doesn't mean you should push your hardware past the point of exponentially diminishing returns, and increased risk of burning your chips out. That is, unless, you have no problem with the very real possibility that you'll need to buy a new phone.
That being said, kudos on "going plaid" with your Quadrant score

Its the Redpill v1.42... I prefer it compared to all the others i used ( stock, perseus, n.e.a.k., note2core). Those results were with stock rom but redpill kernel. Im a fan of omega but today i discovered another Rom (Hawkish extreme series Rom for N7100). I may try Perseus with that rom and see how it treats it...

Btw alcohol was used to create this. Might be flammable.
Awesome, is there a slight rundown of what this has to offer over stock?
well, it may or may not be faster/more battery life. its a test kernel to find build method and make sure things are going to work before putting 1000s of lines of code changes in
Sounds good. Flashing now, will test as much as I can.
Will test also thanks

So far it seems to be running well. Run Quadrant and it is using Eco mode as my scores varied by 2000. Don't care about scores just the feel.
The governor is ondemand and uses 1134 alot more. Which is nice not seeing 1512 mostly so battery should be better.
Do have a question though. Do you want us to test different governors? If so, what's the preferred program?
Thanks joker!! It's great to finally have a kernel to play with!!
edit. Decided to use Set CPU. Seems to be working fine. I take that back about using 1134. Guess it just happened to be the speed of choice by what I was running. Still mostly 384 and 1512. And of course Deep sleep
This has worked fine in my testing Bluetooth steaming and calls work without issue. Camera works so does WiFi. I still see the msm host wake lock but it's not that high. Got 20 thousand in antutu so it seems to work without issue.

I didnt do anything to the govenors on this release. This is mainly a basic kernel close to stock with a couple tweaks.

It won't get rid of wake locks. They do have a purpose, but it should reduce them. Hopefully

So far everything seems to be going well. No stability issues, camera and WiFi work fine, everything runs smoothly. Though its hard to see if this runs better or not since it ran pretty well from stock.

So far I think staying stock is just as good as running a developed kernel for this particular ROM imho, especially when you want to get the most battery. I use SetCPu and will run min 486 and Max 1350/1404. SmartassV2 and Zen or cfq governors. I don't play many games on my phone, I have tablets for that and they are tweaked as high as I can go and be stable. It's all about what you use your phone for, most times when I benchmark it seems the higher frequency I push my score actually will get worse, might be I'm need to up my voltage, but I don't mess with voltages much. I will follow the developers guidelines for undervolting if I'm trying to squeeze that extra life, but I don't worry about it that much. Best way for me to extend my battery life is start turning things off when they're not needed. All the things I try with my devices I have learned by reading on the XDA forums, and by far the developers for our GS3's are the best and I'm very thankful for all they give up to give us these awesome roms, kernels, and not forgetting about the theme developers to make or phones run fast, operate smoothly, and look great. Without them might as well buy a fruit product, just kidding I would get a flip phone before I would do that. .... This was meant to be a quick reply, just got off a 14 hr work day and I'm just rambling a little, I hope my reply makes sense.

I use SetCpu to maintain kernel settings, I keep max speed to 1.3 ghz and min to 162mhz, and under it there is a spot to undervolt, I do -50 on that... thats pretty much it, governor is "ondemand" and scheduler is "cfq"
It's natural for this phone to get hot. It's only overheating when its shutting itself off or acting strange once it gets hot.
It's normal for the cpu temps to go to the 70C range when doing heavy applications.
I would recommend a custom ROM, with KT's Kernel. The Custom ROMS normally offer a much debloated solution with some minor optimizations which does reduce background tasks on the phone allowing the CPU to run at lower frequencies which helps maintain a cooler temperature.
KT's Kernel also has several options such as undervolting, lowering max frequencies, governors, and tweaks that also will help keep the CPU running cooler. Altogether you get extra battery life, a cooler phone, less garbage that you have just sitting on your device.
If you want to stay stock, that's fine, but it's normal to get hot to the touch.
As Monkz said, is completely normal. If you're playing an online game or
one that has good graphics, it's bound to be hot.

That seems kinda low for an overclock gn2. What ROM are you running? If you are custom right now try stock without any mods to it and see what you get. You also may want to try and undervolt it. Also check what CPU settings you are running using setcpu or nofrills. Change the setting to performance and see if that helps.

If it were me, I'd focus on getting my imei back and starting with a fully functional phone. Playing with unsupported (for our device) roms (such as the TW 4.3) or modems is a typical way to lose the imei. I am referring to the other request for support thread you posted.
Lag sucks. Not being able to use your phone as a phone is worse. Focus on one problem at a time.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
4.1.2, no OC whatsoever, and my phone is a Beast!
Given the status of my phone. Being on custom clean rom didnt really need to OC or anything. OC tends to make my note 2 unstable and bring the battery life down a little. Think the cons out weighs the pros really.
