So, I have time, phone, ubuntu 12.04, and a head, but no skills in android rom development. Some years ago I builded some roms for LG GM750 (Windows Mobile), so that's only I can for now :D

Firstly, i'd like overclock my SGA2. I know that I need to do something with a kernel? But what? Who can explane & give links? I know, antsm already tryed to overclock this phone, but no success. SetCpu is shownig right freq, but no any result in antutu and other benchmarks, so it isn't working. Any help is much appriciated

Hey friends did anybody get to overclock now?

I'm honestly not fond of overclock, but if I can Undervolt and improve the already great battery life, that's fantastic

Setcpu SGA II

Hey guys i need help, every time I set minimum frequency to 800 Mhz it always change to 200 Mhz I'm using setcpu, no frills Cup, even the performance In settings (I'm using cyanogenmod 11 by maclaw) is that what call overclocking ? I now SGA II must have kernel to overclocking but as far I now, overclocking is set the frequency beyond it should be right? And what I'm doing is just set minimal frequency to 800 Mhz

have you ever heard for cpu governors? go to settings>performance>processor and choose governor you like. and no need for set cp, no frills cpu etc..

setting minimum frequency to 800 isn't overclocking. that's the good way to kill your phone... processor isn't made to work at max freq all time. and even if it survive, your battery life will be around 3-4 hours...

overclocking is setting max freq over 800 mhz...
