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.

It is if you want it to be. Use set cpu
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
The Vibrant runs at 800mhz unless it needs to run at 1000mhz. This saves battery life and such. PC's do the same thing. Your pc is not running at the full cpu speed when it sitting at the desktop. Start a game and the cpu speed jumps up. You can set your phone to constantly run at 1000mhz but it will drain your battery more.
The Samsung product page also shows the Vibrant with a 800mhz idle speed and a max speed of 1ghz.

this is true i have done it just don't select SET ON BOOT. just in case it freezes after reboot.
you have to go back into set cpu every reboot and change it again.
Can someone post all available frequencies(the voltage for lower than 600MHz and how much battery will it take comparing to the lower frequencies, eg 864 takes "x" battery more than 844)
Is there safe to use 864, and does it take to much battery, or not?
Thanks a lot
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
frequencies below 600: 122, 245, 320, 480 (all of these use the same voltage)
frequencies above 600: 652, 672, 691, 710, 729, 748, 768, 787, 806 (the difference in battery varies depending on your governor and usage but generally, the higher the frequency the more battery it eats)
stability-wise, the only thing that can go wrong when you oc to 864 is a kernel panic. other than that it should be safe to use. however, in the long run i think it can harm your cpu (and yes it does use a lot of battery)
this is my understanding. if someone does not agree, feel free to point out what you believe is wrong
yep sweetnsour is right ...
All that can be added to what sweetnsour said is that there are three more frequencies over 600: 825, 844 and 864 MHz. But the chances for our CPU to be stable at any frequency above 806 MHz are very low.
Another notable side-effect to the overclock, beside quick battery depleting, is CPU overheating. I found my CPU to be stable at 806, but I went back to 729 just because the phone warmed up so much faster. At 729, I sense no difference compared to 600 MHz.

This is highly subjective, no one can tell for sure, except maybe the manufacturer. Buy in theory you should be safe with any frequency at which your CPU is stable and does not overheat. You will sell or trash the phone long before the overclock will affect anything.
And remember: the CPU spends a fairly low amount of time at the high frequency; most of the time it will fall back to the minimum, as long as there are no tasks requiring high processing power.
As far as I could gather in the 10 months I spent on this forum, the community agreed that 729 MHz is the most convenient value.

I personally dont use Smartassv2 as it has some wakelock problems, so try different governors and find out which works best for you.
Btw, you are using the wrong kernel for your rom(6.5.8), you should be using fserve kernel or 4 Sept kernel by Franco (.32).
Yaa 480--729 is the perfect.Above 768 phone becomes unstable.

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.
Alright what governor r u guys using? I'm using smartass2 and although I het excellent batt life when screen is off, it is a bit choppy and not as smooth as I would like.and it drains fairly fast when screen is on or plating angry birds for like 5 mins. I'm looking for something that's a good balance between smoothness and most importantly battery.
any ideas?

ive used lionheart, and it drained the batter SO fast. ima give wheatly a try on monday and intidemand tomorrow. compare the 2 results i guess lol
Battery stats on intellidemand are ok.. I'm a heavy user tho I use another OEM battery and an external charger and switch out thru the day.. I get about 1.5-2.0 hrs of screen time in about a 9-12hr period depending on what I'm doing.. sometimes I'll wake up and drain it dead in an hour and a half (dl, surfing, forums, texts few calls) I'm undervolted -50mv across the board. And set at 1.56ghz on viperrez using dsbs kernel..

no. preformace hasent turned on the 2nd core for me, also since it runs at max frequency all the time, and dosent scale down, unnessarly heat and ussage from the cpu builds up and cooks it. should only be uses for benchmarking IMO
Next noobish question. It's easy to find it in AOSP, but I can't find the governors in Sense ROMs. I'm currently using ViperRez.
Smartassv2 on ziggy kernel. Went about 15+ hrs with 2+ screen on hrs OC'd @ 1.8. I also tethered ALOT during the screen off period and ran multiple benchmarks. Stock battery

If you're using DSB's kernel (I am), his latest has pegasusq governor on it. It seems to turn on the 2nd core more often. I use system tuner pro and CPU Usage Monitor. CPU usage monitor allows you to put icons on the notification bar showing CPU speed AND cpu utilization for both cores. So you can see whats going on. Also system tuner allows you to 'force' the second core on. You can do this with Ondemand with good results. IMO

Wondering if anyone has tried this on OG? My battery life is usually good, but lately I have been getting some serious overnight drain. I run battery widget reborn and let it put my phone in airplane mode and silent during my sleep time. Usually battery drain is very minimal, but recently I will sometimes lose as much as 20 percent.
I'm going to load setCPU and will report back.

I do, but the CPU in the LGOG will underclock itself. Cpuspy and antutu benchmark showed me that, and setcpu won't force it higher.

I underclock it to 1026Mhz and seem to get better battery life. I also have profiles in SetCPU to set the CPU frequency and governor when I'm at a certain battery percentage.

Use system tuner. Setcpu is always a little buggy. With me it would force all the cpu cores on.
