Why, is it not fast enough already?
Seriously, though, to do any overclocking we first need a custom kernel. So far no one has released any yet. I've been trying to compile the kernel for I9100G, no success yet.

just wish to overclock to 1.5ghz... hehe. Actually the I9100G benchmark is high score than stock Exynos"I9100". did u notice? also the neocore fps higher than I9100 also...

Maybe I'll give it a go if I ever get my kernel done. I've got it compiled and running, but no wifi. I think Samsung cheated with the source code. Some bits are missing or misconfigured, like the battery drivers. Just got that out of the way, so working on the wifi now.
Other than the CPU speed, I'm also interested on whether it's possible to overclock the GPU. Our OMAP4430 is virtually identical to the OMAP4460, but with lower rated speed. The SGX540 chip on the 4430 in running at 304 MHz versus 384 MHz on the 4460. It'll be interesting if we can make ours running up to 384 MHz.
Possible.
Nuff said.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm still stuck at the Wifi. I've been tried to get it up for three days now but I don't seem to be any closer to a solution. Just wish someone could give me some pointers. Can't get started on any kernel modding until I get that sorted out.

Ok, i will cheer u up here.. hope someone will provide some point to you.. i am sorry that i cant help you... because i am no knowledge with this...
Best way to learn is to ask directly to a kernel developer about your problem..

Finally got it! Turned out my init.rc file was missing a couple of lines required to make the wpa_supplicant service start up properly.
Woo hoo! I've got my own kernel now. Will post it when I get the chance.
Will try it if you release. No custom rom available but at least do have custom kernel to try.
wow good job
i hope that one day we can try a custom rom lol
there's some awesome roms for I9100 out there it's really a shame, is it that hard to tweak em a little for the I9100G ?
0% Android programming experience here so don't blame me for asking

Install SetCPU and lower your max. It will buy you a tiny bit more battery life, in theory, if that is what you are after.

I have SetCpu already, and with all the profiles and changes in advance settings, I get incredible battery life, compared to other eris, rooted and un-rooted. I just want to prolong it even more. and from what i hear, the under volting would help in doing that alot. Plus, no reason heros should have it and not us

I think he was referring to trying a hero kernel on an eris, not undervolting the eris.
The reason we dont have such features is nobody has gone in and done it. The Hero has more market penetration, so there will be more users/developers by nature.
The source for the kernel is out there, we just need someone with the knowledge and the know how to do it and post it.
Im too busy atm to think about it, got to move + work + vacation + alot of other stuff, but its an idea i have pondered, but honestly i have never compiled a kernel, and lack the time for awhile into the future to even research it.
It definitely would be cool though

I take it you have not looked in the Android Development section and seen all the Froyo ROMs for the Eris.
We have froyo roms... we dont' have froyo compatible kernels, our kernels from 2.1 will work but only with tons of workarounds to fix the roms. It's very different...
Hi all.
Is there someone to confirm that "Tegrak Overclock" app works on GT-I9100?
It's working on Korean GalaxyS2 models, but I can't be sure on Europe GalaxyS2.

Thank you for reading my question.
the free app works! could you update your paid app too? I actually bought it for the additional functionality only to find that the paid app is an older version
thanks for the great work by the way

Oh don't thank me. I should thank you for making this for the s2. Now I can have my overclock without the ugly yellow! sign when I boot up. Ok could you update the paid app so I can have the features like auto set on boot.
Mods could you move this to the development section
I'm sure you'll have more replies there!
oh by the way what does CORE voltage and INTERNAL voltage mean?
Oh and it works but 1.452 is unstable for me. Maybe not enough voltage .. that's why need you to update the paid version quickly! Hehe
core voltages
Does anyone knows how much decrease/increase voltage to underclock/overclock at what speed ?? i cannot find any instruction anywhere
tried latest version but get this error when I try to load overclock module

Free version worked ok for me on a UK SGS2 running Lite'ning ROM version 1.0. Overclocked no problem to 1.4 Ghz at stock voltages (didn't try any higher yet) and got the following in Quadrant Advanced (yes I know, but it's all we have at the moment).
Edit: Added Quadrant Standard screenshots for comparison as Advanced doesn't play too well with Gingerbread.

Hm.. the kernel source of GT-I9000 at Samsung Opensource homepage is different from current kernel, so this app doesn't work on custom kernels now.
And in Korea, custom kernels (that built from the source) make quadrant point lower. I think it is same in Europe models.

Edited my other post to add Quadrant Standard.
nicely done Tegrak
I'm trying 1.6ghz and trying to beat your score.
what speed and voltage is that?
and what's the difference between CORE and INTERNAL voltage?

Stable/safe overclock will vary per device. What works for one might not work/be safe for another. Use this app with care!

You will need a custom kernel.
If you look in the dev section there are loads to choose from.
Also, the dev of your rom (If you are on a custom one) will probably recomend one.

I think he is talking about GPU overclock, not CPU overclock.
Overclocking a GPU will often yield a marked increase in performance in synthetic benchmarks, and usually will improve gaming performance too.

The thread I posted is about GPU overclocking, take a look!
The OP says that after research, he found out that GPU overclock is not possible in Adreno powered devices.
So, I guess the answer is no.
Yeah I read your link. I hope we can possibly come up with something though

hello there
my qustion is, if it will be an option to overclock our phones on any ics rom ?
because on gingerbread, with the right kernel, it was possible, so I thought and asked myself why it is not possible to overclock it now on new ics roms....
I dont know much about what you must do and mod to enable overclocking in kernels...so dont be afraid or angry when seeing this..
is this because htc is not offering the source code of the new kernel? (btw is this legal? thought that the linux kernel is on gnu licence...)
anyway, was there ever a source code of the gingerbread kernels ? is this the main problem when devs trying to mod something advanced like overclocking possibility?
I've liked my phone on gingerbread overclocked, it was really fast (not the launcher, now it's rendered on gpu as everybody knows..)
and battery also was no problem.......
it would be nice if someone could write a good statement and a good info of what must be done to enable it, because I want to learn also something new..

It probably will be able to be over clocked. Im not an evo user myself but the same thing almost apllies for all phones. I cant give you a big explanation because im noob still but i can tell you something. Overclocking is going to be different in ics because ics has more features meaning more speed. So kernal makers will have to try to make it more ram efficent. Or stop un needed things when ever your not using them. Then it will stay fast without ics kicking in with its slowness at times. Right now thats all i can say. Its 01:00 here and i cant think so i might edit this some other time.

Overclocking was made possible on gingerbread roms when HTC released kernel sources and thus the developers was able to edit the kernel sources to allow for higher CPU speeds, then build the kernel and release it to us.
The same thing will happen when they release kernel sources for ICS (Or it might even be Jelly Bean by that time, who knows).

LOL at 1.8 Ghz! Do you want to fry your phone?
As far as i know, Almost every kernel apart from Speedmod and phenomena can overclock your phone. 1.6 GHz is the max I've seen.

WOW, do you want to be able to fry an egg on your phone?
IMO I definitely WOULDN'T overclock an S2 to 1.8ghz it's just stupid.
I did hear that the T-mobile version of the S2 can be overclocked to 1.8ghz but they're running the Snapdragon processor so it's competely different.
Want my advice? 1.2 ghz is plenty fast enough and won't damage your phone.
I play many many high end games on my S2 and I'ts played everything I've thrown at it without missing a beat.
I am intrigued though, can you pls tell me why you want to overclock so high?
