[Q] What is the best Kernel for battery life vs Speed

OK i'm currently using Darkys v8 custom ROM which comes with Advanced voodoo kernel. And I haven't enabled any lag fixes. Was think of installing Speed Mode kernel. Just wanted know what is your experience between these two kernels.
1. Which kernel have more battery life without any lag fixes and tweaks ?
2. Which one of these is best to improve speed ?
Thanks.

i would not personley now i have stock frimware rooted a couple of times then accidentley semi bricked phone while applying the voodo lagfix now waiting for cyanogenmod stable for galaxy s but i think personley doc rom is the best

Thanks for the reply.. Question isn't about custom ROMs it's about kernels..

I'm using hardcores speed kernel 500Mhz which is quite fast and before I used voodoo which was also quite fast. Any you choose will be good as long is newer and stable version

I personally have use both Voodoo and Hardcores and i do see Voodoo draining battery life much faster,
Havnt tried the new voodoo though ,plan to do it tonight will let you know after.
Also voodoo plays traunt with the battery so i suggest flashing at 100% batter and wiping bat stats and then see the drain.

[Q] May i know how to Overclock Samsung Ace to 900++MHZ

May i know how u guys Overclock your Samsung Ace to 900++ MHZ?

Search the development thread for the kernel patch. You must be on cyanogenmod for the kernel to work.
If you need help for flashing I will not offer that help, you gotta read and learn.

Currently I'm using Cyanogenmod 7.1 (Version 2.4.7) I click on setting there , i just saw Max 800 mhz only...

Even stupid SetCPU app with CF-Root kernel allows it. You don't have to be on Cyanogen, that is bull****. I have flashed Galaxy Ace to my mother and my cousine with GLSMT ROM 2.1, which do have overclocking built-in even without SetCPU. But if you wish to overclock your Ace with Stock ROM, follow theese stepps:
1) Download OneClick Root app to your computer
2) In the Phone Settings, Applications, turn on USB debug mode
3) Plug your phone to your PC using usb cable (and wait till windows installs drivers)
4) Run OneClick Root app, and root your phone with it.
5) OneClick Root will overwrite your kernel with CF Root kernel.
6) After reboot, install SetCPU from Market
7) Search the Market for Superuser app, and install/update it.
8) Place SetCPU widget on your desktop.
9) After tapping it, you can set your desired frequency.

Hello you seem very smart. Can it get above 800mhz?

oc potential depends on hardware, if CPU lets you then enjoy 900+

He need 800+
Not upto 800
Setcpu not help to increase aboce 800 without oc kernel
though any stock rom user can confirm it?:b

He's so condescending for someone so ignorant.
Superoneclick can't install kernels and much less a kernel install on a Samsung not in download or recovery mode.
And the cf root kernel doesn't even have overclock.
People like this make this place lousy sometimes.

How can i get 900++....? I saw some1 using CYM 7 RC2...can get it about 930mhz....

flash the oc kernel using cwm
some ppl get stable upto 921
for me i get stable behaviour only upto 844
try at your own risk
why bother overclocking? it'll only fry your cpu
instead try the v6 supercharger tweak, it improves speed

1. download this OC kernel by ketut.kumajaya
2. flash it using cwm
3. go to cyanogenmod setting and set the cpu as u wish...dont make it too high or your phone will reboot instantly..
note:for cyanogenmod 7 only..use it on your own risk

As per above, I've been trialing the ketut OC kernel.
The key for all those who are still "learning" is pushing it up one step at a time, if your phone crashes you have found your limit.
If it doesn't, reboot for it to be "completely applied" and then check in the Cynogen mod settings > performance to ensure the OC has applied properly.
So far i've got it at 944mhz without crashing, on CM7.2 with ketut OC kernel, alot of testing has been done and bench mark averages around 2000, when standard kernal does around 1500 average.
Best of luck and Try not to fry your cpu

Don't teach noobs how to use the overclock kernel . Just don't .

Also, if you want a faster device, why on Earth did you purchase the Ace in the first place? You can get a decent second hand Galaxy S for less money...
And you won't notice much difference with a mere 100 or so MHz extra...except the heat output.

Like mine i back it to 800mhz
But just set governor on performance i get a boost in quadrant benchmark from 1730 to 1890 points

is it safe to overclocked?

It's never safe to overclock.
You have more potential breakages with overclocking rather than flashing.

hmm....im maybe noob here but why bother oc ur phone? the battery just drained faster.... if u are on cm7 just put the governor to performance...
btw
i never got pass 900+ either

[Q] [HELP] CPU Only 600Mhz

I have only 600Mhz.
I cant overclock only underclock, even with OC-Kernel.
The problem is on Stock Firmware 2.3.3 and Costoum Roms.
Is there a Hardware-Bug or what else?

Not all chips are made to the same quality. They only have to reach a certain clock speed to pass quality checks. Certain devices can be overclocked due to being of higher quality.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App

Yes but the default clock of the ACE is 800Mhz right? But MY default clock is 600Mhz.
I dont have any options to overclock only from 124Mhz - 600Mhz.
The default clock of 800Mhz would be ok for me..

You sure its a ace? Galaxy fit / mini & 551 / europa are 600mhz MSM7227 vs 800mhz MSM7227-t 800mhz galaxy gio / ace.

Yes! Its definitely a ACE i have the Samsung box here .. and there are a big label Galaxy ACE "800Mhz CPU"

Which rom are you using? Did you have the same problem on stock rom?

Do you have setcpu, if you do go on Info ; CPU what does it say ; Cpu Part / Cpu Revision / Hardware / Revision ?

If problem presist then go to Samsung service centre and change your phone dude

Hi @Cr0nFixXx!...
It would seem to me that your problem is your Kernel... The details in your first thumbnail show the kernel to be that of a different dev to @Ketut...!!! Your OC Kernel details should read as this : 2.6.35.7-perf-CL562111 [email protected]#4
The frequencies of the Cpu are governed solely by the kernel, so this is without a doubt your limiting factor...
The below kernel is tried & tested by thousands of users & is stable under OC...(check my sig for details)...
You can download this kernel from my dropbox here : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44779766/cm-7.1-oc-kernel-2.6.35.7-perf-CL562111.zip
Flash this kernel from CWM recovery... Reboot phone, go to cyanogen setting/Performance & you should get the full cpu range for OC...
To see stable max OC set governor to "Performance"... Remember, only increase cpu frequency a little at a time & test for stability before increasing further...
Only when you have found your max stable clock speed can you tick "set on boot"...
FYI : OC kernels can only be used with custom roms... They will not work with stock roms... @Ketut's OC kernel will only work with CM7.1 / 7.2 Roms... Do not try with any other rom...
Stay Breezy n Be Lucky...
Pe"ACE"...

Thanks for your help but .. same problem
I even cant get it to 800Mhz Default Clock

Hey Dude...
This is a very strange problem indeed... The Armv6 cpu is standard 600mhz cpu but samsung factory OC it when it is used in our aces... so we end up with an end-user frequency of 806mhz... Yours won't even reach that out of the box...?
Do me a favour... Flash this rom here : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44779766/IceCreamSundayFinal_Tweaked.zip
It is IceCreamSunday Final by @Jusada... It is considered the fastest & most stable rom available on XDA & the OC kernel is inclusive of the rom...
Once flashed, go to cyanogenmod settings, performance, cpu & tell me what frequencies you get offered...?
FYI : It doesn't matter what your baseband or firmware version is... Ensure that you are using CWM 5 to flash with... Also ensure that before flashing you do a full system, cache, data, Dalvik wipe to ensure a clean flash... This rom is 7.2 btw...
Stay Breezy n Be Lucky...
Pe"ACE"...

I dont know whats my phones problem but it dont worked for me -.- even max. 600Mhz...
But great thanks for your help!

LoL the first thing that entered my mind is "maybe samsung forgot to overclock" my suggestion is go to samsung and tell them to overclock that.. or simply say it's defective

approach samsung and get new phone..

man if it showing 600 dont overclock
as overclock can damage your cell
be happy with what you are having

but he should get 800 which he paid for

hey wait isnt ace's cpu like the 600mhz ones but only OC'ed to 800?

I'm done explaining

A fault with the processor probably.. ARMv6 anyway has 600Mhz by default and Ace has been factory overclocked to 800Mhz.. which is the simple reason why each Ace is so different and has so many problems regarding battery life. Overclocking is a delicate procedure..
To the point:
Just take it to the service center to get what you paid for!

Module-OC

Hello,
My phone -xperia x8 white e15i
Kernel - Stock
It don't matter what Rom I use I can only OC till 691 MHz at 710mhz my.phone freeze and reboot.
also I get reboot time to time on 691.
I heard that very x8 should atleast be stable at 710
my question is.
Do I get a higher stable frequency if I use a different module other than Dix's???
I came across a module which offers a higher frequency .... search for better overclock you will find the thread.....so will I get a higher frequency? ?? using the other module???
I USED THE SEARCH BUTTON BEFORE POSTING.
so don't yell at me. : )

Help
I'm not too sure about this one since I'm a part noob much like you but have you tried flashing a different kernel such as Alfs? linuxxd is really good but doesn't allow overclocking as I found out with the same problem as yourself Sorry I meant stock kernel doesn't allow overclocking ...
If I helped you please answer my question on a new thread I made

It's up to your phone. Your processor can go till that frequency without freezing. Other X8s can go higher. It doesn't depend on the ROM or kernel.

A custom kernel allows better overclocking most of the time. When I was on stock kernal the highest I could get to was 710Mhz before rebooting. With a custom kernel I can get to 787Mhz before rebooting.

but I still don't get the answer ....
anyways if I change my kernel then I will be changing the software part only .... so how can it increase my CPU potential .. ?????

You need to understand that the stock kernel is not designed for overclocking, it's only possible with modules for stock kernel.
You can try the other module but I doubt it'll be any improvement, if you want better overclocking you really should install a custom kernel.

Over clock my note

do i need to use a custom Kernel to get it above 1400mhz ? (i see 1700+ is possible)
& if i need one what is the best for pushing the device ?

The short answer is yes. You need a custom kernel (ie. abyss) for that. Flash the kernel over your GB (not ICS) rom, and you are good to go.

You can go up to 1.6Ghz on stock using one of the overclocking apps.
I'm using Tegrak on stock LC2 at 1.6Ghz.
I've been running that for a couple of says without any problems. It feels a but snappier.
I don't seem to get the random lags or pauses when moving between screens or exiting apps that i used to get.
