Can I overclock to 1.4GHz with Good Battery? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I would overclock to 1.4ghz all the time. I just like my battery a little more then speed.
My battery is doing great @ 1.2GHz -50mV. But I kind of want more speed.
But 1.4GHz is 1400mV.
My battery drains in less then 2-3 Hours.
Is their a way for an oc to 1.4GHz without a big battery hit?
Or some speed tweaks?

Happy medium, 1.3GHz? I use "No-Frills CPU Control" from the Market and it works really well.

What are the benefits of oc/uv?

I'm currently running the latest non oc/uv of dead horse, and I wanna know what exactly are the benefits of overclocking/undervolting?
I'm already getting really good battery life with the current kernel I have.
Thanks in advance!

Basically Overclocking makes the phone faster at the sacrifice of lower battery life, Undervolting improves battery life potentially at the cost of processor speed. The proper combination of the two can give you a faster phone with the same or even improved battery life. (very basic explanation i know)
Using setcpu, correct?

I don't think under volting has anything to do with processor speed. I've under volted quite a bit before with no drop in linpack or quadrant scores. If you drop the voltage too low it will cause the cpu to freeze though.

Cpu and battery temps with OC

What is good temp ranges for both for our atrix while oc?
Seems like 130 degrees f is too hot for cpu

Im running faux's 1.7 kernel and ive undervolted with set cpu. My idle temps are around 44C for cpu and 33C for battery. Do you have a lot of background processes?

Overclocking disable 1ghz freq?

Would I get better speed if I disabled 1ghz frequency and left 1.2ghz the default Max frequency?
Would it be faster?
Or slower? Or nothing?
Don't like the 1ghz frequency. But I notice my phone is a little slower when disabling. It.

I thought you were making a kernel with 1.9 ghz overclock? That should be fast enough

1.2 > 1.0

Good to see enyo has found where he belongs in xda. Asking questions and learning.
This is a big improvement enyo.
as to 1.2 feeling slower, your putting a massive undervolt on it. Try backing it off a bit and see if responsiveness comes back. Also, higher clock speeds can lead to better battery in theory by completing tasks faster and allowing the CPU to govern back down to a idle state.

Thanks. Your right. Backed to -75mV on 1.2ghz and faster response came back.
Also it because really fast after switching to the Medium Leakage.
I rarely let my phone sleep, so 1.2 is the maximum I'll go for speed/battery.
But, the more you UV, you get laggy if its too low, but stable?

Honestly -50uv across the board yields the best performance, battery life and reliability.

Is there a advantage if it's undervolted 100+ mV?

that would be called overvolting... yes performance may increase, but inturn added heat, less battery life and instability can occur with it.

So -50mV is just enough?
I'll do that. Your good with setups of oc/uv.
Seems really stable for me.
Trying Low leakage for better battery. But Medium is perfect right
Now.

just tried your setup. And I didn't know how slow my phone was till I used yours. So undervolting to much does slow down your phone. And it Got hot out of no where.

CM7 Glitch OC Question?

How does 50mV more impact battery?
I get fairly good battery with 1.2GHz with a 50mV undervolt. I want to overclock to 1.3GHz, but it has 50mV more (even with a -50mV Undervolt) then 1.2ghz.
1.2GHz = 1300mV
1.3GHz = 1350mV
Both are -50mV undervolted.
Will I still get good battery with 1.3GHz as well? Is it worth it?
It feels faster, but I was just wondering how much 50mV more will impact battery.

I wouldn't worry about uv except as needed for stability. If you find it enjoyable to play with and push your hardware then more power to you. But you will save a lot more power by using a black theme (red is second best)

Just overclock to 1.9ghz.. It will be super fast. And there's espresso protection on the kernel that does it so it's safe.

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.

How would I be able to turn deep idle off? And does effect battery life?

Well its off by default unless you turned it on in one of the devil kernel apps.

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
