Wondering what MHZ can you OC to before crashing. My 1st phone I was able to do at least 866mhz. The replacement phone I can only do 786mhz.
 
I have mine set to 864(max) in SetCPU. I have set it there from day one and never had any crash. I would like to try a higher speed to see it's threshold.

1st (bricked return): one under max (840? stable)
2nd (gf's): 840 stable as well
3rd (my current): 840, 824 stable.
 
Are you using a different Kernel than what you have released here?

why would I do that? i have a different ramdisk but that wouldn't affect the ability of how high your phone can OC. it just automates the OC for me without SetCPU, and some other unrelated crap.
 
864 Stress tests fine on mine, but the phone reboots when leaving setcpu.

840 is stable in stress test and with general use.

I tend to run it set to 806 since this seems like less of a power drain and less likely to cause serious damage. (seriously, that's a 1/3 overclock).
 
well 864 and 840 reset me as soon as i touched linpack.

806 seems stable. 9.5 on linpack and 1300 on quadrant.
 
806 for complete stability. 824 will run fine for the most part, though prolonged stress will cause it to crash, or cause other weird things.

EDIT: Got 824 by picking Interactive rather than On Demand. 844 now runs like 824 used to, so some hope that I might get it pushed up a bit more.

Did notice that the battery temp went up by 10 F over the 806/standard temps (didn't see a real increase from 600-806)

Also saw immediate reboots on anything over 806. But 806 is a 34% increase and more than plenty on my free phone. 9.2 MFLOPS in Linpack, 1275 Quadrant. Almost 3 times higher than stock. Beats my dad's stock EVO on Quadrant - but doesn't touch his 32 MFLOPS in Linpack... ;)
 
I can go up to 840 and be stable for the most part, except for random crashes every once in a while, so i stick to 825 and i havent gotten any crashes/issues so far. ive had my phone oc'd since yesterday, my highest in quadrant was 1407 with 827 oc, it crashes every few tests with 840 so i stay away from that.
 
i have mine set to 787 and it runs smooth. 806 will cause mine to reboot depending on what im trying to do(ie. use camera, linpack)
 
864 and stable. Nrom zefies kernel
