Honestly, I'm down to 1512. A notch above that proved unstable as far as I can tell. I can run benchmarks fine upwards of ~1800, but I'll get random force closes and boot loops if left for any extended period of time. Also have issues with display not coming back on (menu lights and led backlight work, but no image). The stability test app is pretty much worthless too. Let it run for 6 hrs no errors. When I turned it off, BAM restart.
So what is your max, truly stable, OC?

edit: just for archival's sake, using Anthrax-CDMA-Sense (v1216) with Scott's 2.08.651.2 Stock Rooted ROM.
That's interesting...
I'm using the same Kernel with Scott's 'senseless' ROM and I have my clock set to 1.836 with no issues.
I'm no expert but have you tried using a super wipe (or just manually wiping everything including system) and reflashing?

My first 3D was pretty stable at 1.94 but when it started getting the black screen of death I got it replaced through sprint. The Refurbed one they gave me (the one I have now) freezes if I go to 1.6..
I used to do 1.94 but it gave me random reboots (nothing fatal)
I stick to 1.5 smartass when the battery is greater than 50%, then 1.2 smartass, and .8 conservative at 15%.
On charge it's 1.7GHz lagfree
Depends on your CPU, they all arn't created equal. I'm stable at 1.9 GHz with no reboots. I'd say that 1.5 is a good mark, seeing as the HTC Rezound has the exact same CPU as the Evo 3D, just clocked to 1.5 instead of 1.2.

This is interesting. I bet the CPUs, while manufacturing wise are identical, are chosen based on thier bin level for the different devices.
After writing this post I cleared Dalvik cache and switched my kernel to RCmix-evo3d-v7. I ran it at 1.62 or something like that while I was running around Christmas shopping, so it had heavy use. Google nav, lots of phone calls, texts, Pandora, etc with zero issues (especially that display issue I mentioned is gone, thank god). After getting home I was so impressed with it that i stepped it up to 1.782, and we'll see about that, although I'm not holding my breath.
Basically I learned that your overclocking potential (or maybe more accurately system stability regardless of overclocking) is greatly influenced by your kernel.
Akasa Fox, mind sharing your kernel version, ROM and version, and hboot and any other potentially relevant information I may be forgetting? I'm impressed with your performance.

The kernel does have a decent bit to do with your max OC, but it also has to do with the CPU you have and if it was made on a good day at the foundry or not and how good a section of the silicon it came from.
I used to run RC Mix kernels before Chad was around, but those kernels always ran MUCH hotter. When playing a game my phone would literally be almost too hot to touch. Chad's Anthrax kernels have always been cool and after playing a game for a while (same game, same amount of time) the phone is just a bit warm. So you may be able to go farther with an OC on RC Mix kernels, but your phone's lifetime for its processor is going to be a whole lot less. At the temp it was hitting id bet it is well above its max rated temperature level and degrading the processor substantially.
Some people may not be able to OC far, but how far can you undervolt? Many times those who cannot OC very high can undervolt like crazy (me included) and those who can OC much higher than most also cannot run really low voltage levels. My phone is 100% stable @ 192MHz on only 700mv. Thats the lowest Chad allows, Id love to see if I can be stable even lower. I am also 100% stable @ 1188MHz (HTC Stock) with only 987.5mv. But the most I have ever been able to overclock stably (even with RC Mix kernel) was 1.6GHz, with the max benchable being 1.72GHz. Any higher and the phone insta locks up and reboots. No matter what voltage.
Hm, that's a good point. I'd like to push the undervolt limits as well to see what its got. That anthrax kernel I mentioned in the first post was terribly unstable for me, but maybe I should give it another shot after researching the super wipe method mentioned a few posts up. Is there a version of his kernel that everyone is having good luck with? Or is the latest one the best?
Also, I don't see voltage options in the antutu program. What are you using for your oc/uv utility?
Thanks.

His latest 100% Qualcomm based kernel is incredibly smooth. 100% stable for me. I'm giving this kernel a lot of praise considering I used to have crazy reboots and lockups on the older anthrax kernels.

Weird. Well, I will give it another shot before writing him off. I'm a noob so its entirely possible and probable that I did something wrong.

My phone won't overclock for ****. At first it would do good and I could get around 1.7-1.8, now when I try anything after superwipe and wiping through nand, I can't get the thing to post at 1.5 and remain stable without lockups/freezing and slowdowns. The phone even has trouble at stock now. I haven't traded it in for obvious no s off reason.
1.78 GHz. I can do 1.83 but not very stable.
1.782 runs all day locked at that speed but I usually run bcblend kernel @ 1.512 max 194 min. Ondemand.

I know it was Virus' InfectedROM (Before the nightly), Software 2.08.651.2, HBoot 1.5 (HTC Unlock.) [Edit]: I'm almost certain the Kernel I used was Tiamat, hard to remember though, seeing as I traded out performance for battery life by switching to viper ages ago. (And that i'm a flashaholic )

I'm running the awesome das BAMF ROM 2.0-5 with the MR2 radio. The camera on this ROM runs much smoother when max CPU frequency is set at 1.4 ghz. Is it generally safe to leave my phone overclocked at 1.4 GHz indefinitely? Particularly for a daily driver/ primary and only phone? It seems to run this so far, but I don't know enough about long term effects of overclocking. Thanks everyone.
I overclocked my Eris for over a year. 1.4 ghz is safe as a general rule because it can run stable up to 1.8. If you use SetCPU you can set profiles to underclock when the screen is off, below a certain battery level, etc. Just remember that if you flashed imoseyon's kernel, you need to run the speedtweak.sh script in a terminal emulator and run option 13 if you are using SetCPU after selecting voltage options.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I'm thinking I'll stick to whatever kernel is in the das bamf 2.0-5 ROM. Easy drop down menus
Also, if a kernel runs stable at a certain frequency (say 1.8 ghz), does it follow that the processor hardware itself will also be OK? In other words, if I can run at 1.8 ghz stable and deal with the battery life associated with it, will my phone last through my two-year contract or will I wake up one morning a year from now and find the phone has turned into a marshmallow?
Well obviously there is risk involved, but a processor either runs fine, or it wont run at all. Personally I run at 1.6 Max right now, only because its not worth the risk, with the minimal gains to run it at 1.8. In terms of the longevity, well sometimes you gotta just take the plunge bud, that's the fun in android.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
You won't really notice any performance difference with anything over 1.4 ghz.
I have been running imoseyon's kernels at 1.4 max & 245 min ever since he implemented speedtweak. No overheating, reboots or other weirdness. Ymmv, each phone has different tolerances. But as long as you don't o/c the min frequency (i.e., you're not constantly at 1.9 or 1.4 ghz) you will probably be fine.

same here, imo's kernels have made this phone what it should be. it has incredible battery life compared to stock.
but to answer the OP's question, i can't see why leaving it o/c'ed to 1.4 indefinitely will harm anything. like sublimaze mentioned, as long as you don't bump up the min freq, your phone won't be running at 1.4 the whole time. it only gets up that high when an app or system function needs the processing power.
on a side note, even if you did put your min freq at 1.4, i still don't think it would hurt anything, it would just murder your battery quickly
You should share what speed and voltages you are running at, I figured it would be helpful to give other people ideas of where to begin trying their voltages at for undervolting purposes. So, what's your lowest voltages at the highest clock speeds?
I'm using SetCPU's standard voltages. 1.8/.38 normal, .87/.38 screen off and over 130F, 1.2/.38 battery less than 50%, 1.8/1.2 plugged in. Getting 4-5 more hours per charge!

Here's the values I've currently got in my Permatemp Root .bat file (thanks Eugene!): scpll_l_val=24 vdd_uv=1060000
That gives me 1.296 ghz at 1.06 volts. I know 1.3 ghz isn't much of an overclock, but this phone is already so fast (especially compared to my old Hero, lol) that I'm not really craving any more speed ... what I'm most interested in is undervolting for max battery life. From what I've read the stock voltage at 1.2 ghz is 1.18 volts, so I'm a little under that right now. I tried 1.00 and 1.03 volts and got reboots every time, but 1.06 volts runs rock-solid reliable for me at 1.3 ghz.
is that really even noticable? the LCD draw most of the power typically

Someone in the OC topic was asking about UV at stock speeds. You're close enough to stock that you should qualify. You should go post your results in that thread too. They'd be happy to see them.
I'm running @ 1.78GHz with a vdd of 1300000. I'm going to try and go lower... maybe 12800000.

You adjust the voltage when you type the ADB command to OC. If you're using a script that does it for you, you will need to edit that script and look for the vdd_uv= line.

What do you mean by "is that really even noticable"? It's certainly calculatable ... it's an 11.3 percent improvement in battery usage by the CPU. If you're saying that's not very much, well, it's all relative. If you're saying you're not interested in saving a little battery when it won't cost you anything to do so, that's fine with me. If you're saying that no power-saving effort is worth any consideration because the LCD is the biggest power draw of all and that's the only one that matters, then why did Qualcomm bother to develop asynchronous cores and low-power audio modules and low-power GPS modules? I mean, hey, the screen is all that matters, right?
Or did I misread your statement?
Edit: Sorry for coming across as so argumentative, I just don't understand why you're taking the position you are.

I think it will be helpful to start establishing these values now so kernel makers will have some ideas of how far they can push our phones.

Thanks for the check! I was wondering if there would still be lag with an overclock - that's disappointing. Supposedly the SGS2 handles files like it with no problem.
OC Script
Here is a batch file I created to make it easier to OC. Basically just the Rooting script with a menu to select the speed with delays built in.
Rename from oc.txt to oc.bat if you wish to run the file.
You will most likely need to change the voltages to match your phone. My phone has been very OC friendly.
Currently running 1188mhz @ .97 Volts with no issues. I have been able to OC up to 1890mhz @ 1.32 volts.
Have not tried to go lower on the voltage at 1188mhz yet...

I am one of the unlucky ones that no matter what kernel/rom combination I cannot sustain over 1.5GHZ without a re-boot.
Curious to see how many share my ill fortune to see whether this is more the exception or the norm among the XDA EVO 3D community...
I can do 1728, but 1782 reboots on me. I'm glad though... My hero was stuck at 691, my first shift couldn't top 1000, the second one got 1600 but others got 1800, so I'm happy with 1728. And just a note, I could get higher using on demand versus other governors, so be sure to try that.

From what I now understand, the CPU bin will play a role of whether your phone can go past 1.5Ghz and remain stable. But some of you guys need to wait because the kernels aren't made for every phone in mind. One may work for yours, the other may work for someone. So let the kernels get out of there beta stages.

No problem here.
Now we need to ask about battery life. How does the overclock messes up your battery life? Out a normal 100%, how much % gets eaten on your normal day by the cpu?
And the 1.8ghz is max? In standby ect i want it underclocked.

On my E4G I set min384/max1176 for a vast majority of its life and never had bad battery life that wasn't coming from somewhere obvious like 4g on, low 3g signal, etc...

i get 1.8 and am stable, on a 1.5, you should be able to hit 1.7 with zero issues. most should be able to hit 1.8+ w/ no (or very little) issues.
Was running 1836 with no problems when I was temp rooted. Now I'm fully rooted and using nets kernel and capped at 1728. Both are stable and fast.

wth is a 3vo???
ive tried every rom/kernal combination and with each i get lock ups when doing intensive cpu work such as a game or benchmark overclocked to 1.6 any ideas? Thanks
Just means your processor was built a little weak. Its only built to run at 1.2ghz so anything above that is pushing it hard... some phones can be oc'd that much, some can't. Just take it down to 1.4. I can't even get mine to 1.4 so he thankful
Sent from my AT&T cellular device.
What voltage do you have it at? Try raising it 25mV at a time stressing you cpu at each step until you're stable. That is if you are determined to run 1.6 and i would not push more than +100mV personally.

This has been discussed in 10 different threads already and in great detail. If the OP did as much as search he would of have found the answer himself. That is why they call it research
the only question left is...... You mad bro?
Keep all voltages stock, then use voltage congrol and click on 1400 and increment the slider+ 25, then do the same for 1600. This is what i had to do to get my phone stable at 1.6 Some phones may need EXTRA voltage and others need less. It takes some testing to get your particular phone stable at anything over 1.2Ghz. I only did it to see if I saw any gains. Actually for me and my phone I found as far as MY SETUP and testing many different benchmark style apps at 1.4Ghz i got better benchmarks than i did at 1.6Ghz. Now everyones phones will act sligbtly different so your mileage may vary.

At 1.6 ghz... your phone will be discharging your battery ON your charger... I personally wouldn't recommend doing it as it gets the phone really hot, and causes the chip lots of stress due to high heat. Personally if you need more performance (this phones pretty damn fast anyways) go to 1.4ghz.
Most of our phones can be overclocked to 1.4 and some can go to 1.6 but not all. If you change the voltages and it still craps out, then take it down a notch to 1.4 and see how that works for you.

Have you considered there is a reason that your phone was only sold as capable of 1.2 GHz?

Now now. Since when do we encourage keeping things stock.
My point is - if it were guaranteed to hit 1.6, it would be sold as 1.6.
Being able to hit 1.6 is luck of the draw, pure and simple.
There's a reason:
1) OC is not default on my kernel
2) I held off on providing OC support for a while here, and NEVER released it on Infuse (users weren't mature enough to handle it over there)
3) I have a warning in GIANT RED LETTERS not to complain about OC stability issues on my kernel thread.

This is all true... but the OP was simply asking a question now lets all play nice.
We should have an OC that allows n00bs to melt their cpu.... 2.5ghz ftw
No no no.... We have too many "I tried to load the ICS in the I9100 forums, and I bricked my phone, please help!" threads. we don't need "I OC'ed my phone to 8ghz and melted my cpu" threads too
Tegrak allows you to go past 1.6. I thought these CPU were locked @ 1.6 but i had to up my voltage at 1.7 and i got a small bump in my benches though i probably did run my test enough to confirm the bump. At so.e point, when i get some time ill beat on my CPU some more

I ran my phone at 1.6 for days just to see performance. No UV at all.. battery certainly drained faster, but not while charging. It charged just fine.. and stayed cool even when stressing. Like many have stated, all CPU's are slightly different .. just cause yours melts at 1.6 and wont charge doesn't mean this will happen for anyone trying to run 1.6GHz.
sent from my SGSII... suckas
Try bumpin' up the voltage 1-2 notches.
Just to add to the stats...
I've been able to run @ 1.4 with the same voltage as 1.2, but my phone will freeze once in a while when running apps like camera or navigation. Had to bump the voltage up slightly to get it stable, though I will likely just run 1.2.
I cannot run at 1.6.

Try changing or updating your kernel. Im the OP and had the same problems. with the new siyah kernel at 1.6 even if i try i cant make it lock up or freeze.
Your processor was made from a different silicon wafer than other people's phones and was rated for 1.2ghz.
Since each wafer is different, some processors take voltage better than others as well as speed. It happens.

What do you guys think is better smartassv2 or ondemand? I usually use smartassv2 but im not sure with the rezound.
I'm using ondemand and its been perfect for me. no rebooted and great battery life.
I flashed incredikernel 6 the day it was released weeks ago.
I use on-demand, I have not had a single reboot/bootloop etc yet & the battery life is super.
I use on demand with the stock Kernel (using cleanrom 3.5). I drop the cpu down to about 1.ghz and set a profile for on demand between 192 and 760 something when the screen is off. I only dropped about 3 percent a few nights ago while sleeping (6.5 hours roughly). (the phone doesn't go into sleep mode and I dont have a battery saver). I don't get that with my heavy usage, but that is a big plus.
Where do you guys get the download for ondemand? Back in the day when I had the OG Droid, everyone used SetCPU. Doesn't seem to be the app of choice any more to set frequencies. I can't find ondemand (or smartass for that matter) in the market. ANy suggestions?
I had been using ondemand up until a few days ago. The last couple days I have been using interactive, and it seems like both battery life and performance are somewhat better, although I have no hard numbers to support this, and I have really random usage.

smartassv2 seems to be working well for me so far.

They're features on the kernel. When you install the kernel you'll be able to check which one you wanna use from the app. (SetCPU may be good, but it seems the apps of choice on the Rezound are AnTuTu or Systems Tuner Pro, I use AnTuTU.)
Or if you use incredikernel the app incredicontrol goes along with it perfectly and is 100% totally stable for me. I have tried every kernel there is both GB and ICS on my phone and incredikernel and the stock kernel are the only ones that will run stability test scaling stability test all night long without bootlooping.

Thank you so much for the reply. I am just sticking with the stock Kernal for now, but I was interested in undervolting the kernal while it's in sleep mode and while charging to see if I can save battery life. I just tried SetCPU, but was not pleased with the constant SU pop ups. It was keeping my screen awake. I think I'll five AnTuTu a shot.
If I ever load a custom kernal, I'll know what to keep an eye out for.
I have completely given up on undervolting at this point, I never once saw a noticeable increase in battery life but I definitely ended up with a less stable phone.........

What we need are more custom kernels.
I have undervolted (Incredikernel with Incredicontrol) and it's quite stable and the battery life is pretty good. I can get 12 - 16 hours with the stock battery with medium usage (texting, browsing).
Interstingly, it was 10 - 12 with OnDemand. Interactive seems to be better.

Have you ever tried leaving all the settings exactly the same and NOT undervolting??
I would be willing to bet the battery life would be almost identical.
CPU Tuner is awesome also. Might be the best.

Actually, yes. It did make a difference. Not as significant as on the Incredible, although that may be a difference in HAVS vs SVS.
But what works for one may not work for all.

im hoping IMO ends up making a kernel for us. i know he makes them for the thunderbolt.
I'm pretty content with Inredikernel. I'm sure Chad is going to hit us with something awesome soon.
