Hi... I have rooted my Samsung GS2 and payed for the OC app TEGRAK ..
But every time I go over 1400mhz the phone gets very unstable.
It even feezes at 1400 mhz when i use my navigon app...
I have tested it at 1500 mhz.. But reboots in a kind of save mode.,,,
At 1400mhz i runs Quadrant smooth with 4200 in score
And 56 MFLOPS in Linpack
But why is my phone so unstalbe?

Because it's supposed to run at 1.2Ghz.
If every SGS2 was able to run at 1.4Ghz without any issue I guess Samsung would have set them at 1.4Ghz by default (since battery life is obviously the least of their concerns ^^). When CPUs are produced, there's always variations in quality. what usually happens on x86 CPUs is that they're tested, sorted according to their max stable frequency, and then sold under different names and at different prices. For Exynos my guess is that any CPU that fails to pass the 1.2Ghz bar is just ditched, and they keep the others, some of which will work at 1.4Ghz, whereas some won't.
Now if you want to gain more stability, you can always try to increase the voltage, it usually gets more stable as voltage increases, but it also gets hotter (which can cause it to crash, or may even permanently damage the processor).

At 1.4ghz the phone will also get hotter and it decreases the lifetime if you run 24/7 at 1.4ghz
Ok.. I know about the x86 cpu's.. But didn't think it was the same in ARM cpu's-
But I see ALOT SGS2 that runs 1800mhz..
I guess that I just have one of the not so OC lilkes...
Overclocking won't always work for everyone at same levels.
I've also seen evidence to suggest that OCing significantly reduces the life of the SGS2. Nobnut had his phone vastly overheating even on stock speeds, and constantly rebooting... He overclocked. A number of others reported similar.
Overclocking is not simple and it is not that you just click on 1400/1500 MHz and you are Overclocked. A lot of things matter here. When we overclock in our Desktops then we have to test it very thoroughly, setting up the right VCore, Bus voltage, Multiplier, checking the stability and temperature etc. etc. Tegrak OC is a nice and simple software to use, but it can't be perfect when you can't set all the settings manually other that just higher the clock rate. Personally I'd always stay with stock speed as incorrect OC could harm my CPU and GPU.
Regards.
If you know anything about overclocking then you'll understand that there are a variety of factors that affect the overclocking of a system. The overclock headroom you get from a processor varies, add to that the variables in component tolerance in the circuit board and you have a huge variety of factors that can limit the maximum frequency that you can overclock your system to.
I'll give you an example using my computers. Click on the images below:
Both processor overclock similarly on using the same components and that was the maximum I could get out of them. Now when I bought an EVGA X58 Classified motherboard and overclocked the Xeon W3520 I got it up to 4704 MHz with less vCore and less CPU VTT. All of this was done with aircooling.
My point is that not all systems will overclock the same even though they share the same model components.

call me a noob but i gotta ask, just what does the kernals do to the phone thats so special, and all the ghz talk means what. i rooted my device for the teather and customizing, and now i see all this talk of kernal this, overclock that, and different ghz people are getting can someone explain to me what this does for your phone, should i be interested???
popcorn kernals?
the higher your ghz the faster your phone is.
overclocking is making your ghz higher
and kernals is what allows you to overclock(sorta)
lol dude...you should prob. take your time with customization but ghz is in reference to the speed of the processor. So...theoretically the higher the number the better your phone should perform...t, eoretically lol. Note that with a higher ghz value the worse your battery life will be unless the kernel is written really well. Also the kernel is the code that controls the devices hardware. (brain)
The nice thing is that you can generally play with different kernels without having to wipe and redo your phone. Also, if you really want to play with the various kernels out there you should get setcpu from the market. It let's you set your phone to make use of the processor in an over clocked (OC) application but it can also let you under clock your phone when your not using it, such as when the screen is off. This will help you conserve battery life. But be careful, over clocking can lead to over heating and other problems if you''re not careful
sounds very interesting, hmmm. so in the coming months people could create kernals to acheive speeds to challenge dual core phones
the kernels already are challenging dual core phones. The thunderbolt currently has a 2ghz kernel. The motorola atrix is a 1 ghz dual core... Thunderbolt definately rivals it with overclock kernel

A "kernel" is the OS layer that sits between the applications and hardware. So, when an application says "light up LED" it eventually goes through the kernel to do this, most likely by a request/system call.
The speed of a CPU is measured in hertz (frequency). So, a 1 Ghz CPU can perform over 1 billion operations in one second. The frequency can be increased (overclocked). When you do so, this can damage the CPU (most likely due to heat). Heat can also cause the CPU to run efficiently. So, if you overclock too high, you COULD end up running slower than if you had just left it at 1 Ghz. Changing the frequency can also hinder stability.
so with it being so dangerous how do u know what kernal to trust and whats a safe limit in hertz, do u stop at 1.5, because 2ghz sounds like pushing it
This thread is so full of misinformation it is comical. To start, higher clock speed does not always result in better performance.
Secondly, everyone has their own preference. The best bet is to find the perfect balance for your needs. For many people, overclocking the CPU is not very beneficial... since the device is already plenty fast at stock 1GHz speeds. A lot of users would rather use custom kernels to make their device more power efficient and use SMARTASS governors and lower voltages.
Mess around with kernels and see what you like the best! (always remember to create a backup before flashing... this allows you to easily revert back if something goes awry).
You mean they're not popcorn kernels?? Lol

It should be noted that most phones are definitely capable of being overclocked to a reasonable extent.
the majority of kernels we nexus one users play with, is undervolting the and playing with teh voltage tables to maximize standby battery life, at the same time overclocking the high end to improve performance. but really its about lowering voltage to improve battery life.
Hi im thinking of doing a overclock to 1.5 ghz is it safe for the processor and the battery life witch already sucks. has anyone on here whos done it using setcpu and the rom had any problems after doing so ? and how much faster is 1.5 ghz compared to 1.2 ghz on the galaxy s2 ? and is it safe in general for the hardware of the phone will the phone get hotter or have over heating problems ? also what should my settings be for minimum maximum and the voltages ?
Of course oc is going to make ur battery life a lot worse.

I haven' used Setcpu in a while but I believe it's got a feature to stress test the settings to see if it can handle it. Generally the worst that happens is it'll crash. So long as it doesn't get hot. Heat=death for electronics :')
I'm using tegrak (from market) to overclock to 1.4. I found 1.5 was too unstable. Noticeable difference between 1.2 & 1.4 is almost none. Also voltage increase of 50mv was needed to gain stability. There is not much point of overclocking the device IMO unless like me u just get some satisfaction out of knowing its running faster!

Well it's not safe, that I can say. Nothing is safe when you don't know what other things are changing with the clock rate. But still you could do that. You just have to make sure that the temperature is within limit, it will be definitely high, but make sure it's not that high.
And upping the clock rate to 1.5 GHz won't drain any extra battery than 1.2 GHz.

I tried the overclocking and each phone is different, increase then test, there are many benchmarking apps out there, I was stable at 1.4, my kernel does not include 1.5 GHz, and irregardless of what people may say, running the phone at higher clock speeds consistently DOES drain the battery more than 1.2GHz, unless you have found a way to manipulate the laws of physics. I don't see how one can fathom the thought that you can get a faster CPU at absolutely no cost.
Many people think when the CPU running faster means you complete tasks faster, hence 1.5 would complete a task faster than 1.2 and hence save battery, but I believe we use this phone as more than a calculator, so when you are performing a task that causes the CPU to run at 1.5 for a period of time e.g playing a game, browsing or whatever you do with your phone, then the CPU has to draw more power to keep the frequency at 1.5 as compared to the CPU running at 1.2
All in all, I dialed back because I was doing fine without it and I did not need it, other people may need it, and I wasn't gaining anything. to answer your question directly, it all depends on what you do with your phone, I'm not a huge gamer or anything and the 1.2GHz has proven to be more than enough for me to have a very pleasant experience using this device
Using it occasionally is safe, unless you stress your mobile at 1.5+ ghz for more than an hour or so.
The cpu governor will only make use of higher frequencies when there is a need, so mostly you will see your mobile idling at 200 mhz.

Not necessarily a lot worse. It depends on how you are using your phone, and what is causing it to run fast. If overclocking allows the phone to spend longer in deep sleep state, your battery will win. If its games, and by OC you achieve a higher frame rate, then the phone is doing more work, and this will be reflected in the battery life going down.
Most of the time, screen on is going to dominate. If you are a low screen-on user, I guess there is more chance for a higher max_cpu to be beneficial (it won't be used unless there is a task that requires it). More accurately, it helps some of the time, so the net result is not always obvious to predict.
How about undervolting?
Any danger in doing so- other than crashing when voltage is too low?
Before over clocking it might be worth downloading cpuspy from the market and seeing what time you spend in each speed.
Chances are most of the time you won't even hit 1.2 so might not have anything to gain by over clocking.
Then again I dont know how you use your device but I do know I was surprised when I found out.

I've played with the SuperSonic version of this phone (which has a 1.5Ghz core) and the results from photos/video are much better, I'm pretty sure the cameras are exactly the same but the SuperSonic benefits from the higher CPU.
I think it would be cool if somebody could write an app that states
IF user opens Camera application voltage + clock speed is increased to allow stable 1.5GHz speed
WHEN user closes camera application overclock turns off.
Thoughts?
You have a smartphone! Not a pc!
I didnt see any advantage if you oc to 1.5
Btw In normal use your phone keep in 200mhz not 1.2.
I think i only hit 1.2 two or 3 times for 3 seconds in a full battery cycle.

oc dosnt make sense ,there no noticeable diff,an yes very few times i hit 1.2 mostly its on 800 or few times on 1000....using a device with 1.5ghz proccesor an oc a device to 1.5 ghz which has 1ghz processor is very diff in nature....
Fair enough.
Well I wouldn't mind an app that mazes out at 1.2GHz with camera app open, as it can lag when shooting HD.
oc upto 1.4 ghz is fair enough, anything more than that is a waste. though you cant find any visible difference between 1,1.2 and 1.4 it does helps in maintaining smoothness on some situations.
yes very true i had oc my sgs1 at 1.2ghz and sgs2 at 1.4ghz but frankly i dint see the diff so after few days use i turnd to orignal settings....but many use oc an phone works fine,but depends on personel use......an yes as bala_gammer says its fine on 1.4ghz......cheeeerz

How can I have both cores run at the same speed all the time? I think this is the reason my phone's performance suffers when I overclock it or just even using the stock frequency.
Currently, I have it OC'd to 1.83ghz but I can see a drop in performance. Ive tried to increase voltages, but it makes it worse in some cases. However, Ive noticed that when both cores are on and operating at the same speed the phone becomes fast.

First off, what kernel and ROM are you using?
Second, generally speaking at speeds above 1.56 to 1.62, the L2 Cache doesn't sync with the processor speed and they kind of fight against each other. On a good kernel overclocked to just 1.62ghz you can beat a poor kernel at 1.8+ all day. I would suggest only overclocking to 1.62 max.
Third, if you install Kernel Tuner it has an option to link the two cores together so they run at the same frequency.

after waiting impatiently for the arrival of your op2 , many are disappointed with the low battery standby....specially if you are using LTE.
issues :
1) even having such a large battery, getting poor battery life.
2) even if the phone is idle, battery drains :crying:
so after having it for almost 2 weeks, i have learned most of the cpu tuner and battery saving apps wont work with op2, its not because of software, basically snapdragon 810's big little architecture is new and apps in the market are not compatible with this octacore new chipset.
and because of very less manufacturers are using this SOC as we now know why... and they were right... it heats up a lot!!! so app developers have not concentrated an specific app for this SOC.
so after lots of mix and matches, finally have come up with a stable solution as follows :
a) your phone should be rooted.
b) install 3c cpu manager from playstore.
c) open minimum 6 apps in background maximum the better.
( remember if no apps are running in background then cpu manager will show only maximum 1.555 ghz. max frequency and 384 mhz low frequency single setup only and big little architecture dual setup wont be shown ie: 810 has 4 cores running @ 1.555 ghz max and other 4 cores @ 1.76 ghz max. and both setups at 384 mhz minimum. )
d) open cpu manager, there should be 2 different setups, if not then open more apps in background, simply change the governor to ON-DEMAND, from interactive and set it on and reboot, as i have noticed with interactive governor even during standby, processor does not stays idle at lower frequencies.
after changing the governor, i have noticed that during standby cpu frequencies are in idle or at the lowest. which highly improvises the battery standby life and haven't noticed any performance degradation.
you can even limit the higher cores frequencies from 1.76 ghz to 1.55 ghz... improving up-to some limit of over heating issues and better standby time.
these are just the findings i discovered with my phone, so don't blame me if anything goes wrong, do it at your own risk.

This has nothing to do with apps, just poor drivers on the kernel side, scheduler isn't properly coded for this SoC, and the fact that there is no dynamic hotplugging options available without causing the phone to reboot under certain circumstances doesn't benefit us any. Check out some of the custom kernels, as they may increase your idle battery life, on my own kernel I saw .5% drain per hour max. For reference I saw about 20 hours idle and sitting at 89% on my kernel.

i really appreciate your findings with the kernel, but my post is intended for people like me who does not wants to mess up with a stock kernel, so that future OTA updates can be patched without much hassle.
as you see, oxygen os is quite new and incomplete when compared with other's have to offer. so i expect lots of future updates immediately by the OP to improve and stabilize the OS.
I am giving snapdragon battery guru a try, it's for Qualcomm processors. But I'm not very experienced in this stuff. I think it has helped but if someone with more experience wants to give it a try. Maybe they can shed some new light on this subject.
This is the result with on-demand governor settings when phone is idle. with stock kernel and stock frequencies.
Ondemand has always been my fvorite for all past phones. in op2 however it always reverts back to original after interactive. the best battery saver for any phone is swithching to 4.4.2. Azimg batteru life. unfortunately notpossble with op2

Being rooted alone will prevent OTA updates. You have to flash the full stock ROM when there's an update anyway which would overwrite the kernel.
hi all,
is there a way to undervolt and or OC the CPU and GPU?
I remember reading a article a month ago about a GPU OC, but somehow that's it. No way to download the mentioned app etc.
Is there anything for the Mi 10 / SD 865?

According to this news oage, we still have some potential left in our SD865
Xiaomi Mi 10 Overclocking Has Improved Significantly

www.igeekphone.com
here is even a XDA link to another phone without any links to the app itself...
Abandoned
abandoned.
forum.xda-developers.com
so there is a way to OC and UV the SD865
That isn't what it appears to be to me. It appears to be an ongoing project to oc/uv the snapdragon processor and gpu and so far all they've done is managed to change the ram clockspeed. The pros of undervolting the ram is less heat but the cons is bottlenecking under load because ram uses voltage in correlation to clockspeed. If you overvolt the ram it produces more heat, processes more data but stability goes out of the window completely. This is NOT CPU/GPU core clocking and won't have any effect on the cores whatsoever, only data throughput.
I'll stand by my word coming from HTC to Xiaomi, both snapdragon phones, you can't overclock a snapdragon because they're not underclocked. It has been that way for a long time. What they advertise the chip as capable of is what the chip is capable of as by design and will actually be that way in the field.
If you want proof just take a browse around the later HTC phones and you won't see anything about core clocking, probably not ram volting either..

No offense, but have you read any of the two links I posted?
They literally explain, that they changed/overclocked the GPU frequency to 865mhz
stock frequency should be 587mhz.
They did overclock the GPU.
They even proved it by showing some benchmarks.. and compared it to the SD888
And this is the first time I read, that SDs are not overclockable...
865mhz is the bus and ram frequency. The cores are in the ghz.
All that has been achieved is a higher throughput and that equates to more heat and more used power. This stuff is well researched.
I honestly dont get, where you getting the RAM OC thing.
They do not use ddr7 or ddr8 on a mobile SoC, because the tech isnt there yet...
If you search for the Andreno 650 GPU you will see its specs that it is clocked at 587mhz (and not the Ram).
They are of course adjusting the ram timings too, but the xda links tells the following:
"2. edit your settings in the 3 tables. (start with adding the extra step form 865+ to 865)
3. press "Save GPU Freq Table" after editing any page, before you move to another."
If you want to stay with your resolution on this topic, it is fine.
I just want to know where we can get the KonaBess app, because google only links me to chinese pages and somehow this topic isnt as popular as I thought.

Just a heads up, not all snapdragons are created equally. That said, there is definitely performance left to gain via OC the adreno 650 gpu of the 865. I'm currently running a massive 930mhz on my adreno 650 and a very small cpu OC and with that, it blows the 865+ away in benchmarking and trades wins with a stock SD 888 with CPU and GPU bench scores. Any OC'ing you do I highly recommend doing a stress test before thinking you're stable.

Thanks for the heads up, I am already aware of the "silicon lottery".
I am amazed how much juice is still left in the SD865, that OCd it can even beat the 888 and is more consistent.
Do you use any App to monitor your temps and how did you OC your CPU? Afaik KonaBess only allows GPU oc?

Hi, I can't seem to find any tutorial online on how to overclock. Could you help me out ? I am gonna order a Black Shark 4 with the Snpadragon 870 soon, which is the best cherrypicked chip along the same chipset as the 865, which means that it's more likely to be a silicon lottery win... Can we get in touch on Discord ? My username is Meli #6318.
please guide me to modify the necessary things to overclock (kernel, file...)
anyway i still want to overclock it and gpu

How did you oc the cpu ? and is it possible to oc the gpu of the sd870 which is also the adreno650 but I’ve heard that it’s locked by Qualcomm trust zone , is it just a problem with sd870 or even 888 and 8 gen 1 ? Thanks in advance
