I have messed around for a while and found a stable setup at 1890 on the pacman rom with "significant" undervolting. Sometimes I could get 1998 to run for a while.

I switched to paranoidandroid and have found a stable setup for 1998 that I can run at boot while also undervolting. I have the two lowest frequencies at 750 and I move up slowly from there. The only value I left alone is 1998.

I use ktoonservative with zen while on palmar, but now I have been running with row.

Anyone have any advice to get to 2106? I've tested moving up to it a number of times and a few times my phone wouldn't immediately freeze so I think I could possibly..?
 
I accidentally moved my slider to 2106 and it has been running through a quadrant and a light game and I'm posting without a reboot. Definitely the longest I've gone.

Temp seems to be running in the high 30s and low 40s

Well, it rebooted during my 3rd quadrant benchmark.

I never really thought about heat lol. It seems that my phone probably has spent a good amount of time in dangerous waters when I'm having constant reboots...guess I'll think twice about this.

I usualy get a reboot if the voltage is too low mate. Did u take a screenshot of the quadrant result? Think this has been my highest uploadfromtaptalk1367958174661.jpg

But Quadrant is weird.. it seems to score high when your app cache and RAM are really full

Yeah it is weird. Definitely nothing impressive and I'm sure I've had higher scores when I had it clocked lower. Right before I tried to run some more tests, I realized cpuspy was showing nothing over 1890 was even being used so I don't know.

I am pretty sure this is one from an earlier 2106 or a 1998

I think this was at 1890

I seem to recall getting over 6k, maybe like 6.2,but that was a long time ago and I had to wipe all my data recently

Yeah i lost my screenshots recently. i quite like Geekbench 2 as a benchmark app but they should all be taken with a pinch of salt tbh. Like sometimes the phone can feel really snappy and slick but benchmarks score low so its all down to what you experience as feeling good and having decent battery life. Im usualy at Min: 200Mhz Max 1.7Ghz with Pegasusq governor and Row i/o scheduler and its nice. Remember we're both on different chip-sets though (im on the quad core)
