That's the new Glitch 14 live oc guide. If you are not using NSTools you aren't using half of what this kernel is capable of. Trust me read that and enjoy awesomeness.

There's no overclocking or voltage adjustments available with the stock kernel. You can change governor and I/O scheduler but that's it for now.

What is the purpose of I/O? Right now I'm using setcpu with governor set to on demand and a special profile set so when my screen goes off the CPU turns down. My battery life still totally sucks lol

Ah yeah, I haven't used setCPU since I had my incredible, but with those kernels you couldn't change things like I/O scheduler so I didn't know if you could with the right kernel. I definitely prefer voltage control and it seems to just work best with galaxy S phones. There's also Pimp My CPU but I haven't tried it yet.
You can read about I/O schedulers, but usually the default setting is best. You're possibly not really saving battery with a screen off profile that throttles your CPU. I've seen it postulated that with the phone being able to scale up the CPU when the screen is off, it can accomplish whatever it needs to faster, and therefore get to deep sleep faster (where your phone is consuming the least power). Not really sure if it's true, but it sounds plausible. Also, I've seen that glitch V14 has a deep idle feature, which I think in theory at least, is supposed to be even more efficient than deep sleep. I don't know much about it though or how well it's working on the fascinate.
So far, my battery life seems to have taken a bit of a hit with ICS too, but I'd like to put it through a few more charge cycles before making too much of a judgement.

I downloaded nemisis's kernel 1200 OC and -50UV. it says the kernel is already overclocked. Does that mean i dont have to use setcpu? I never used any of these overclocked or undervolted kernels before. What instances do i need setcpu for?
You need to use setcpu. Its also useful for when u want to use different kernel governers or profiles under certain conditions.

ok so then the enderst special oc 1200 mhz uv by -50mv kernel is basically useless unless i use that app then (minus the UV)? also what are the chances im gunna fry my processor if i keep this overclock kernel for everyday use?
Edit: also how hot is too hot for a battery to get? aka whats a normal range? also after heavy use (like after playing angry birds or tank hero)?
The battery in our phone (cobalt li-on) should never go above 130c. At above 150c you going to get thermal runaway and have a dead or exploded battery.
For a good article on lithium batteries see: www.buchmann.ca/article28-page1.asp

The profiles are NOT compatible with Galaxy S phones, at least the Fascinate. Some may work for some people alright, but most people experience many different problems, I myself have problems with the profiles. I recommend against using them. Just use it for the governor/overclock.
I flashed the Glitch kernel...
this where I'm still a learning n00b...
I get the Glitch graphic when the phone is powering on but how do I know if this kernel is FULLY working? Or is it?
If you get the glitch boot animation and your phone is properly running...odds are its installed fine, but you should go and grab voltage control from the market so you can overclock and under volt to gain the most from this kernel.
Voltage control will also verify whether or not you have the glitch kernel since it doesn't work with stock kernels.
As side note I also recommend grabbing cpu spy (also in market) to see what speeds your processor is running at.

well you're seeing the glitch image, so it is working. I can't remember if the lagfix is enabled by default, if so, then you really do nothing. If not, then enable it with clockworkmod.
What I usually do is download Quadrant from the market and run a benchmark. If lagfix is not enabled your score should be around 850ish, if it is enabled, you should get 1500ish score.
Hope this helps... which rom are you using? and how do you find it?

Yeah it isn't voodoo lagfix, just voodoo sound and color. MTD runs better than voodoo ext4.
If you get the glitch boot logo then it worked, you're on glitch. To get the most out of it download Voltage Control and Voodoo Control from the market, voltage control lets you control the CPU and voltages to save battery and get performance customizations while voodoo control gives you some cool options with sound to enhance the quality of music and color to make the screen look however you want.

It a benchmark.. quadrant runs a series of tests.. i.e. memory read/write speeds, cpu, graphics, etc.. the it gices a score on each test, combines them, and compares them with other phone models.
I think I'm beginning to understand.
I went to the Voltage Control and jacked it up to 1700mhz and this phone basically flies out of my hand, and the battery life basically dies. So I lowered it.

If you can do that without the phone messing up, you're on the right leakage. lol
The new glitch 12 release has some recommended setting you can try out.

It's still beta, right? I want to wait until it's stable. Isn't that the best idea?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
No, beta doesn't mean "it isn't ready for people to use" but just that it isn't fully 110% stable and still might have some bugs. It'll probably never be "stable" just because of the spotty hardware and other issues, but I've been on glitch since it came out and it has been perfectly stable. If you wait for an officially stable release you'll likely never get to experience the awesomeness that is Glitch.
v12, like v11, has been rock solid for me as well.

Start with high and with your way down in leakage and see which is the most stable or can handle the most overclocking...all phones are different and handle leakage values differently but i'm pretty sure that low leakage is the most efficient and generates the least amount of heat but some phones will preform the best and be the most stable on medium or high..experimentation is probably the best answer

You can o/c it to 1400 rather than 1600.
Mine runs at 800Mhz constantly since there aren't any app that needs more thanks to the nice Exynos architecture.

You might be able to oc, but you may also need to tweak the voltages.
Every phone responds differently.
Try different max frequencys and voltages.

Hey all,
I've been using CPU Master on my Rezound since I rooted it. But I used to use SetCPU on my Dinc. My question is, which do you prefer? I have the free version of CPU Master and paid for SetCPU.

Under/overvolting and io scheduler selection is really the only things it offers in the paid version. I've used setcpu on my og droid and on my incredible, but I bought CPU master when I got my rezound and I actually prefer it over setcpu. One thing I like is that the profiles are already set up for you, all you have to do is enable or disable them.
I've had really good luck with CPU tuner
Free and has a lot of features.
Under 8 posts for me so I can't post the stupid link... Just search for it in the market and check out the reviews.

this varies from person to person. needs to be scaled right while you're finding the sweet spot. I do -25 for each frequency. run it for awhile to see if you get a random reboot or lag and just reverse what you did. I did -25 for each until I have time to drop them further
sent from my rezound using tapatalk
Thanks very helpful. Seeing how well the undervolting goes before I make my final decision
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
Depends upon the kernel. I found SetCPU worked better with stock and Ziggy's kernel. With dsb's smartass v.2 kernel, I find CPU Master works better.
Yeah I know that each phone individually responds differently to cpu/voltage changes. The dinc i had before this would take any frequency and kernel would throw at it. However underclocking/volting on my Rezound almost always ends in fc's
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I use SetCPU mostly if I can... Provides more information than CPU master pro, I have both... The only thing that CPU master pro does that SetCPU doesn't is change voltages, in a crappy way though. I don't go through every clock to change them, that takes way too long. Instead I use incredicontrol to change them all simultaneously... I've never had problems with one over the other. They have both worked for me on all the kernels for this phone.
setcpu
I'm using Ineffabilis v1.0 with Ziggy's kernel. SetCPU has worked for me with no issues. I haven't tried CPU Master but I guess I haven't had the need to cuz SetCPU is working for me. I just don't completely get the whole undervolting. I understand the concept but don't know how to apply it with SetCPU, if that's even possible.

I haven't tried to play around with voltages on the rezound, but on my tbolt I could drop voltages 100 each and be fine, but couldn't run at 1.8 no matter what I tried.

You can't change voltage with SetCPU. CPU Master can. Correct me if I'm wrong but kernels can also effect voltage. Amirite?

I think 1.2 GHz as a max should be good enough. As for governors, try conservative, although smartass will probably give you a good blend of performance/battery.
Whatever you do though, don't put the min as 100 MHz.
Thanks but I'm currently using 100 as minimum.

100 and 200 use the same amount of power, hence same battery life with better performance. You don't even need to overclock, just undervolt all -25.
Using stock settings will give you both battery and smoothness on the rom.
