Hi everyone, I'm running houstonn's RootBox w/ his 167MHz kernel. Can someone post a screenshot of their CPU voltages? These are the ones Im using, I'm not sure if they are too low.

I find that anything under 700000 leads to instability on my phone, but if that works for you, by all means go for it.
wow, im using mystery kernel and i can't set below 800mv, use both kernel tuner and faux clock.
Been using this for a day, everything seems to work fine. I keep my max CPU at 702MHz and max GPU at 325
Edit- I also keep two cores completely offline.

What's the point of max 702MHz? That's slower than my old HTC Aria...
I know to each their own, but that just seems to defeat the purpose of having a quad core smartphone.

I agree. With a decent governor, the device spends very little time at higher frequencies anyway, so there is relatively little additional battery drain... But I would imagine you'd run into a fair bit of lag for those times when the higher frequencies are needed...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Can't be terribly snappy with that setup.
Sent from my Optimus G using xda app-developers app
Like you guys said, with a great chipset, using low frequencies doesn't really take away from the performance, I only notice a slight difference, but my battery was lasting about 1 day 8 hours with 3-4 hours screen on and WiFi on, one to three bars, so not much battery gain. That's why I only used this for a few days testing. That's the whole reason why I posted this thread, I'm trying different settings.

enyo... I have tested with glitch kernel at 1.7 ghz and i currently hold the record benchmark for this device on antutu using performance governor. After testing for a half hour at that speed i fell asleep with the phone stuck at that speed. I'm typing this message with that phone now. That was done with glitch v13. The most i ever got from high clock speeds was freezes and reboots.
However, if you get stupid with live oc the story can be very different.
But to give an idea of what my phone handled back then, go to the cm7 glitch thread and check what the gpu/buss speed was at 1.7ghz. But remember that those bus/cpu speeds, and voltages were finely tuned by tk , and you probably won't be able to push that hard with live oc.

So just overclocking, @ 1.5GHz or 1.2GHz and, monitoring the temp, processor will last just as long as it would non overclocked?

It's all luck. Chance. Fate. If tk has not burned his phone yet i would say you have a lot of catching up to do to get the mileage he has. I had mine overclocked 1.5ghz for a few months.. And guess what, i have never monitored temp. But hey, i pay an extra couple dollars a month on top of insurance for lifetime warrantee. So i think my phone burning up would fall under that. But anyway, your stressing out to much over it.

no heat and i use it daily...first time i can ever say this when overclocking to 1500. i agree with neh4pres posts...becareful with live oc it can screw your device up quick. most folks will never see any benifit by using live oc imo anyway. part of the reason why i just use vc...
I actually use 10% live oc and 1200mhz step... All voltages stock. Fully stable and it FLIES

I must have every bit of speed. That said here's the setup:
ICS AKOP 25 Glitch 14 B5 for 6.0
1200 step with 118 LOC
Glitch OnDemand with some OV and UV. (see pics)
Live OC is the way to go as you get a boost to your GPU and RAM in addition to the usual CPU bump.

thx a bunch for this nfo. just used ur voltage settings for my device and was able to overclock into the 1300mhz range from the 1200 step. im impressed since last time it was very unstable at 1200 for me.

with the devil kernel i have been running 102% loc between 200-1000mhz. on glitch i can oc up to 1500mhz with no loc, soon as i add any loc the device freezes. im guessing my leakage is not dialed in correctly for glitch, also i get a bit nervous playing wit arm voltages.

If you happen to keep running this for a full day, would you mind reporting back how much the overclock affects the battery life? Thanks a lot for this, it's great news!
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
depending on usage, I imagine it would be minimal. I assume the CPU underclocks itself when idle and only goes up to 1.5 during heavy usage like playing a game or maybe launching an app. so if you aren't doing this most of the time, then I would imagine the power usage would be pretty much the same. I'd be more interested in how much hotter the phone gets when playing a game.

Hmm... That is a little bit more of an effect than I expected.
Of course, we will probably be able to minimize the effect overclocking has on battery life by installing custom kernels (once we have them) with more battery efficient CPU governors. As far as I know, the default CPU governor for Android is still ondemand, which scales up to the maximum frequency very easily. Something like smartassv2 or lazy would probably do a better job.

Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
I used to push other processors, but I wouldn't even touch the processor inside this thing. Not even a thought in my head to overclock it. Even when I root it and flash another rom, I wouldn't touch the processor speed on this thing. Heck if I can underclock it to 1.2ghz and save battery life even more I would do that, lol
Agreed that it doesn't need it. But I'm curious what the limits of this prossesor are.

Well usually with the ability to overcllock comes underclocking and profiles which is good maximize performance and battery which is always good

I think they're both great you can't go wrong with either kernel. It's like choosing a lamborgini or ferrari, they're both awesome but it truly comes down to preference.
I think I got better battery with faux 31 but I under clocked and undervolted so I can't do a fair battery life test.

I've noticed better battery life as well; not majorly, but noticeably. Although I feel it also has a little perfomance drop. Could just be me, though.

Sorry for a question within a question, but what does undervolting/overvolting do? I've only ever tampered with MHz frequencies.

Don't worry.
Undervolting is basically adjusting the voltages so the cpu uses less voltage aka electricity. It helps a little but it can make your phone unstable so watch out. Of you undervolt use the system tuner app on the market. You should definitely under clock if you want to save power too. When you undervolt be sure to underclock, and don't do it too low or your phone might freeze! That's why your shouldn't go so extreme on it.
Overvolting is basically adding more voltage to the cpu. There is no point in doing it for our amazes to be honest. It is already a battery hog. I guess it can help if you want to over clock a lot but there is absolutely no point in doing that.
In older legacy phones if you wanted to over clock because the cpu would be so weak, like 600mhz then you would have to overvolt to over clock to like 1ghz if you were lucky. Our devices are 1.5 ghz dual core and sense isn't THAT bad. There's no point in doing overvolt in this phone though.
PS, check out my rom in the development section.

I just saw it in Venom Tweaks and was curious. The most I underclock to is 1 GHz; cuts down the CPU maximum by a third and doesn't hinder performance to much. What voltage would you recommend at that clock speed?
P.S. I have I plan on flashing it to try it out when I get WiFi access. Trying to cut down data usage since I don't have WiFi at home.

He's better off figuring out what app is keeping the phone awake so much. 14% deep sleep is horrible. Though. 21 plus hours up with that little deep sleep isn't too bad. Mpdecision turned on by any chance? That might explain the min cpu at 1ghz.

I'm assuming you are using 4.4 so battery apps like BBS do not work on 4.4 so it will be a little more difficult to isolate what drains your battery.
Post a sn of the OS battery stats and trickster showing deep sleep time.
Also did you lower you minimum frequency, or are you still running at 1ghz at idle?
