I'm on Glorious Overdose V2. Has anyone else found a stable overclock yet or is it not stable at all? I'm running at 1.052 GHz and I haven't frozen yet. But anything higher will eventually freeze me.

I usually overclock at 1.2 which is relatively stable, once I went up to 1.3 though, after about 5-10 minutes the phone rebooted... lol, usually I think 1.2 is the safest though.

Flashed Bali 2.2 over Glorious Overdose V2, bricked. Now I gotta ODIN, lol.

Edit : Back to stock, deciding where to go from here I may install GOV2 again, but flashing Bali 2.2 is impossible.

For a quick stress test, try downloading a benchmark app. OpenGL will be where you encounter problems and crashing.

I don't know of any significant overclock that is stable.

Good luck.

Thanks. Well, I ODIN'ed back to KD2 and did a clean install of GOV2. Hopefully I can overclock it, it was feeling a bit slow. And LauncherPro probably isn't the best launcher to use for it.

Overclocking with Tegrak at 1.2 GHZ on Glorious Overdose v2 with no issues after a couple hours.

Don't know what the benchmarking really proves, if anything, but mine just hit 1421 after i overclocked. is that good? lol

I usually get around 2000 when I'm overclocked...

that's kinda why i asked if it was a good score or not. i'm pretty noobish but learnin quickly...
does it matter what i'm using to benchmark my device? i'm using quadrant standard, didnt know if they varied in results.

I'm sitting here getting to know Tegrak, there's several settings i'm not sure what to set that might help optimization, doing some further reading on that now.

i also didn't realize that when you use the free version of tegrak OC that you hafta redo the settings anytime reboot. so when i overclocked, rebooted, and ran a benchmarl test, it gave me non overclocked results. so i redid test and got 1690 this time. a far cry from your 2000+ though lol. any suggestions sir?

About 2000+ as a Quadrant score while overclocked with 1.2 on GOv2 sounds about right. Although mine crashes if I try to launch a game like Temple Run or something memory intensive. That's why I have to choose a much lower overclock like 1.052 or 1.1.

when i was on GOV2 i was using launcher pro + underclocked to 800mhz and was still butter smooth, and could sustain a 400mhz underclock. (after a day it would lock up and reboot.

Try something like the RD 3D benchmark.

Could also try getting GTA running on your device (provided you have the know how)...

Anyhow, heavy load with OpenGL is likely to crash your device when overclocked. If you can get a "stable" setup, have at it. Good luck.
