Quadrant doesnt matter at all. I am on bionix v and its a perfect daily driver. Its fast and has excellent battery life. THE ONLY THING QUADRANT IS GOOD FOR IS COMPARING NUMBERS. And besides 1500 is pretty good.

Well if you really want some high scores, then odin back to stock (backup your stuff with titanium first and put it on your desktop so you can return it later) then find ryanza's one click lag fix. It converts your file system to ext2 and does something to boost your score to around 2300. The i/o part of the test goes by instantly. And for more added score i guess you could overclock it. But i wouldnt recommend it. 2300 is high enough LOL
EDIT: if you don't want stock then find a rom that is compatible with ext2 system file conversion.

Two most common are "setcpu" and "overclock widget"

You first need to make sure you have a kernel installed that will allow overclocking.

How do I check if I have kernel installed? Sorry im new to this and someone rooted the phone for me
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If all your phone is is rooted then you don't have an overclocked kernel. If your new id suggest staying away from the overclocking kernels. Its a known issue that not all vibrants can handle overclocking. If yours can't it will cause you problems.

you have a kernel, your phone wouldnt operate without one. Find a kernel for your device that is set to overclock

Before you do anything to your phone. Go to the general section and read the guide tips stickier. It will save you a ton of headaches.

does the lastest version of Axura install voodoo automatically?
if so, does dat mean i can overclock?
Yes it does install it automatically. But that has nothing to do with overclocking. You have to have a kernel that's capable of that.

Eugene has a few to choose from.

be aware most oc kernel's destroy battery life. I am currently using ttabals dragon oc kernel. I have also tried the Dow kernel. I have experienced a few hard resets.
Setcpu doesnt seem to work correctly for me and it doesnt like setting profiles.
When overclocking anything take it slow and easy.
So which kernel should I get then?

That depends on what kind of ROM you are running. Are you completely stock? Are you on 2.1 or 2.2? You dont want to flash a 2.2 kernel over a 2.1 or 2.1 over a 2.2?

Vibrant overclocking

Im trying to find a rom to overclick my vibrant so I could get a higher cpu than 1400

I use Simply Galaxy 2.3.3 with the oc1.2 kernel. At 1ghz I get a quadrant score of around 1660 and oc at 1.2 I get a score around 2130. Its a great rom give it a shot.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
OCing depends primarily on the Kernel not the rom, the rom just helps with making the phone smoother and more efficent when OCing. Anyway, if you're running a 2.2 or 2.2.1 rom here's the only kernel I know off that can get you over 1.4.
How do I do that tho

I'd recommend you do some reasearch on flashing..

What happend to your phone???

[Q] what is the difference in Vibrant and Vibrant MTD?

I'm rooting a friends phone for him and i was just about to flash CWM from ROM Manager but i don't know if i should flash Vibrant or Vibrant (MTD). what's the difference?
Vibrant (MTD) is for Cyanogen Mod 7
unless if you're planning on flashing CM7 RIGHT after that, then do the regular vibrant option.

If you're doing this for a friend's phone (because of this, I'm assuming he doesn't know much about android, advanced android stuff, and android debugging), then stay on stable Samsung roms as he will be able to handle them with basic phone knowledge.

Honestly im running the latest nightly of cm7, applied the gps fix, and am running the glitch kernel....
Everything is flawless. Gps locks fast, no force closes on anything. Stable and smooth. No more in call audio problems.... its come a LONG way. Gingerbread really is pretty much stable at this point if youve tried it.
You can always try the latest nightly and if you dont like it flash back to something else without a problem.

Surely give me about half hour.
As long as your friend doesnt live an hour away it takes 5 minutes to change a rom if hes unhappy

Ok here are the links. First download cm7. The latest nightly is 62, here is the link:

Here is a link to the glitch kernel. There are three different kinds here is the one which is usually the best and most stable:

Here is a link to the gps fix. There are a few steps, but if you take your time you should have no problem.

If you want a REALLY stable rom with not a lot of bells and whistles apart from the standard tweaks, Zendroid 2.0.1 with Bali is an excellent choice for a beginner (its what I started off with) and has excellent battery life, especially with it's generally dark colored theme.
Im sorry but no offense. At this point, roms for the vibrant aren't very originally.
I've found that all the gingerbread roms are based purely off CM7 at this point, even burgertimes roms are based from CM7 source.....
CM7 really is the way to go at this point. It's more than stable enough as a daily driver, and if you know what you're doing it's even better.
Can't go wrong with CM7 these days.... Anyone who tells you otherwise i'm just going to have to believe is a fool...
Hey why not go with Bionix, it's only 10 years outdated now.

Can I use Bali 1.8.8UV with SetCPU?

It says in the OP not to, but I just want to make sure. and has also anyone tried it?
How come we can't?

it cant OC so no, you could use it to underclock but thats just pointless
the max clock of it is 1GHz
you can use setcpu with the bali 1.2GHz to OC it to 1.2
In my experience with Bali if you setCPU lower than 800 you get constant sleep of death. I dont know if anyone else has that problem i switched to overstock though and it worked fine
