It is if you want it to be. Use set cpu

The Vibrant runs at 800mhz unless it needs to run at 1000mhz. This saves battery life and such. PC's do the same thing. Your pc is not running at the full cpu speed when it sitting at the desktop. Start a game and the cpu speed jumps up. You can set your phone to constantly run at 1000mhz but it will drain your battery more.
The Samsung product page also shows the Vibrant with a 800mhz idle speed and a max speed of 1ghz.

this is true i have done it just don't select SET ON BOOT. just in case it freezes after reboot.
you have to go back into set cpu every reboot and change it again.

Mixing SetCPU + Voltage App

Would this cause CPU freezing/crashing
I tried undervolting even minimally and my phone crashes, regardless of the values
I'm perfectly willing to accept that I may have one of those unlucky devices that just can't handle it, however I just realized I've been mixing the too apps....could this potentially be causing CPU confusion, ultimately leading to crashes?

I doubt it I use both of tgem and nithing crashed maybe you phone cant handle overclock or ur settings try lowering them

ive tried as low as -25 across the board....it usually rides well for a while....but eventually leads to crashes

i would only recommend using 1 or the other.. (voltage app is best)
and -25ma across the board what do you mean?
1200
1120
1000
800
400
200
100?
your -25 on all of them?
cause if you read the threads supporting voltage app you will see to only change 5-7 profiles meaning...... dont do all of them... i keep only 4 of them under stock voltage.... as listed below (some phones cant handle the actual under volting NOT the over clocking.... and some cant do either)
1200: -25mv
1120: -25mv
1000: -25mv
800: -25mv
400: stock mv
200: stock mv
100: stock mv
i have been over clocking sense we got the kernels to do so... (i9000 kernels)
so if you need anymore help just pm me and i can help with a really good oc/uv set up or in your case just use setCPU its alot easier!
voltage app
which is the best governor for voltage app?
I had the same problem using both and thought it was my phone not liking oc with no uv but then I figured out by removing setcpu and only using voltage app that my phone was stable up to 1400. I have read many threads that state not to uv all freq's and not to use more than 5 states in the drawer. Also try to create the least voltage steps as possible and not to touch 800 cause thats where the phone us set to go to sleep and wake at which is critical. I think that set cpu and voltage asp conflict each other with scheduling, but I am not a dev so could not be sure.

I have used both. Set CPU sleep profile works beautifully paired with voltage control app.

How many people use LiveOC over stock OC System

Who prefers LiveOC over the regular OC system?
Just wondering.

I prefer to use voltage control and overclock the ol' fashioned way lol...I have played with nstools and live oc, but its more than I really need.

enyo... I have tested with glitch kernel at 1.7 ghz and i currently hold the record benchmark for this device on antutu using performance governor. After testing for a half hour at that speed i fell asleep with the phone stuck at that speed. I'm typing this message with that phone now. That was done with glitch v13. The most i ever got from high clock speeds was freezes and reboots.
However, if you get stupid with live oc the story can be very different.
But to give an idea of what my phone handled back then, go to the cm7 glitch thread and check what the gpu/buss speed was at 1.7ghz. But remember that those bus/cpu speeds, and voltages were finely tuned by tk , and you probably won't be able to push that hard with live oc.

So just overclocking, @ 1.5GHz or 1.2GHz and, monitoring the temp, processor will last just as long as it would non overclocked?

It's all luck. Chance. Fate. If tk has not burned his phone yet i would say you have a lot of catching up to do to get the mileage he has. I had mine overclocked 1.5ghz for a few months.. And guess what, i have never monitored temp. But hey, i pay an extra couple dollars a month on top of insurance for lifetime warrantee. So i think my phone burning up would fall under that. But anyway, your stressing out to much over it.

Going to over clock to 1.5, not going to stress about it. Ulcers come like that

no heat and i use it daily...first time i can ever say this when overclocking to 1500. i agree with neh4pres posts...becareful with live oc it can screw your device up quick. most folks will never see any benifit by using live oc imo anyway. part of the reason why i just use vc...
I actually use 10% live oc and 1200mhz step... All voltages stock. Fully stable and it FLIES

I must have every bit of speed. That said here's the setup:
ICS AKOP 25 Glitch 14 B5 for 6.0
1200 step with 118 LOC
Glitch OnDemand with some OV and UV. (see pics)
Live OC is the way to go as you get a boost to your GPU and RAM in addition to the usual CPU bump.

with the devil kernel i have been running 102% loc between 200-1000mhz. on glitch i can oc up to 1500mhz with no loc, soon as i add any loc the device freezes. im guessing my leakage is not dialed in correctly for glitch, also i get a bit nervous playing wit arm voltages.

[Q] Cpu doesn't reach 1.4 ghz

Hey,
I got the galaxy for some days now, I installed better battery stats and for some reason I see in the Cpu states the from 1ghz and above all the bars are empty, and like the phone don't use them.. I tried to play angry birds and some other games and try to do quadrant test to see if it reach the higher Cpu speed, but with no help.
The maximum is 1ghz.
Does anybody knows something about it? Maybe android doesn't support it or something :/
Thanks, Elad

You have powersave enabled.
Go to settings -> powersave to set it.
Ok probably those frequencies are not used frequently so they became 0% in bbs. In Cpu spy I see them used for something like 16 seconds..

Whats the Min and Max of your CPU?

I never thought about overclocking or underclocking my phone under recently. I just got tired of the lag when I tried to turn it on from its deep sleep. I fixed that issue as the Min was 100 MHz and I just changed it to 200 MHz. Right now I have 1200 MHz, but has anyone every tried upping it up for a better experience? What Min Max / Voltage should I have to get a real smooth experience? I'm running ICZ.
When I run JB/ICS, I set it to 200 min and 1000 max with Live OC of 5-10%
Undervolting:
100 - 800
200 - 800
400 - 1025
Can't remember the rest, doing it by memory as I have Froyo at the moment.
Good battery life, smooth phone, what more can I ask for?
Lol actually i have set Max freq at 1000 mhz and also undervolted by -50 mV for each step.Buttery smooth for me
JUST HIT THE BIG THANKS BUTTON...
Sent from my beautiful phone powered by the best OS ever
In JB I limited my frequency to 100-800 MHz and live OC is 100%. My phone is so smooth and long battery life (I think battery life depends on KA6 modem also)

How can you have a proper running OS with such low clock speeds? I pull it down to 100 MHz and there's a short lag when I turn it on from deep idle. On top of that, I need some sort of clock speed in case I multi-task or play games.

Deep idle is off and CPU governor is "Ondemand". Smartassv2 is also good.

Well its off by default unless you turned it on in one of the devil kernel apps.
sent from the depths of helly bean
Try latest version of SlimBean. Or try the Semaphore kernel, with its included app you can make some performance tweaks as well.
the 0921 Helly Bean is eating up juice quicker than my previous so I'm going to try the 200-800. We shall see if my batt stats get better.
I ran my cpu at 1.55ghz stable back in the day... ive been running it 1.2ghz since then

Gov's. what do u prefer?

Alright what governor r u guys using? I'm using smartass2 and although I het excellent batt life when screen is off, it is a bit choppy and not as smooth as I would like.and it drains fairly fast when screen is on or plating angry birds for like 5 mins. I'm looking for something that's a good balance between smoothness and most importantly battery.
any ideas?

Battery stats on intellidemand are ok.. I'm a heavy user tho I use another OEM battery and an external charger and switch out thru the day.. I get about 1.5-2.0 hrs of screen time in about a 9-12hr period depending on what I'm doing.. sometimes I'll wake up and drain it dead in an hour and a half (dl, surfing, forums, texts few calls) I'm undervolted -50mv across the board.

no. preformace hasent turned on the 2nd core for me, also since it runs at max frequency all the time, and dosent scale down, unnessarly heat and ussage from the cpu builds up and cooks it. should only be uses for benchmarking IMO
Next noobish question. It's easy to find it in AOSP, but I can't find the governors in Sense ROMs. I'm currently using ViperRez.

If you're using DSB's kernel (I am), his latest has pegasusq governor on it. It seems to turn on the 2nd core more often. I use system tuner pro and CPU Usage Monitor. CPU usage monitor allows you to put icons on the notification bar showing CPU speed AND cpu utilization for both cores. So you can see whats going on. Also system tuner allows you to 'force' the second core on. You can do this with Ondemand with good results. IMO
