[Q] Overclockable Scense kernals?????

Alright im having a real hard time with this. I have a scense rom and want to know if there are any overclockable kernals for it. I have not been able to get a strait answer on this and hope someone could help me. If there are what is a good one for battery life and charge time??

Ziggys471.com. they can be ocd an have good battery on z roms. What rom are you runnin.

im running Inc Rom 1.6 and if i do believe i still had a problem with the ziggy kernals but i will try again due to my google account getting messed up from the playstation hacking that occured. since then all my emails went haywire.

i meant to say i factory reset my phone so i didnt save the ziggy kernal but i think it still had graphical glitch bars when i tried it.

Actually it wasnt overclockable thats why i didnt keep it its the same as all sence kernals. This is a bummer because i like sence roms for the camera and they have no overclocking kernals that i found yet

Then your doing something wrong. I have ziggys 3/12 bfs wo havs, and it goes to 1.22. Its stable at 1.113 for me. Are you allowing superuser for setcpu?

Chad's December Incredikernal for Sense is overclockable and works great.

Can u overclock the dinc and if u can how do u do it. Thanks in advance

There are a couple of ways to overclock the dInc, but it depends on which kernel you use and what ROM you have. For froyo, Ziggy's are probably the best. Tiamat is very nice for AOSP gingerbread. An app called SetCPU can be found for free to XDA members on here. Just Google it. There's also a couple free apps on the market. If you're still using froyo, I suggest only Ziggy's because his will allow you to use scripts to change the speed and the voltage at every step and he lays it all out very nicely, including samples that you can just edit and mix together. The benefit of the script is it doesn't use system resources like an app would.
Pushing it to 1.153 should be hard with most kernels so long as they aren't undervolted. Some devices are stable at 1.19 and some even higher. Few will exceed 1.19 though. Overclocking and tweaking kernels can be an interesting thing. Most kernels with a sysfs or ramdisk will allow some kind of scripting. Definitely check out Chad's IncrediControl.

Another good kernel for ASOP Roms (both gingerbread and Froyo) is Incredikernel. Always check and see if the Rom you want to overclockable and if it doesn't say in the OP ask the creator of the Rom, they'd be happy to help you out. Also, make sure you know the correct way to flash a kernel. It's the same way you flash a Rom, so it shouldn't give you any trouble. Happy Flashing and Overclocking!

Thank-you guys. I'm using kingdom rewind 3d so ill ask joelz if it overclockable and if not...so be it. Once again thanks for the replies

None of the gingersense ROM's will be overclockable until HTC releases the kernel source. Which will happen sometime after we get the OTA. So it's either Froyo Sense or AOSP Gingerbread if you have to overclock.

Not sure that's true. I'm overclocking the kernel on this Tbolt and there's no source released for it either.

It's not available on XDA anymore. I'm actually running Ziggy's kernel on it now. I'm gonna change my sig in a second.

I have found if the ROM is developed well enough, overclocking is not needed. You wont see too many benefits.

On 3G, not really. On fast WiFi or LTE, yes. That's when you're looking at situations where the device isn't waiting for data. That's where you'll see the bigger benefits of overclocking.

Doesn't really matter. Quadrant, linpack... you're comparing same setup to same setup. An overclock on one isn't going to yield comparatively different results when compared to any other... at least it SHOULDN'T.

This may be a stupid question...I am having trouble with all the kernels and ROMs determining what is a safe OC for my DInc. I am flashing CM7.0.3 now and I read that it's got OC built-in. I just wanted to OC to whatever is definitely safe. Is that 1.113 GHz or 1.153 GHz as indicated earlier in the thread?
Or is it something I'm going to have test on my device to see if it exhibits a specific symptom?

Your milage may vary, but usually when things become unstable you can't really naviagte to anything and you get a bunch of reboots, or so it has been in my case, but again YMMV.

Every kernel dev has his own choices for kernel voltage and that's usually the single biggest variable in what stable will be. 1.113 should be stable for most devices though.

Thanks for the responses. I tried 1.113 on CM7 (7.0.3) on my Incredible and I started getting constant reboots. I put it back to 998. Maybe I'll try another setting later.

[Q] Now that we have root...

......what ROMS work and how do we overclock?

Unless something has changed, all roms should work (that are made for the evo) and use setcpu to overclock. Please use the search button next time.

Yea I used setcpu for the time I had my evo (a year) and it never gave me any problems. Just have "set on boot" unchecked to see if that clock speed is stable. I don't think there is an app made specifically for the evo but by all means, Google "evo overclock app" or something along those lines. Btw, all phones will not react the same to apps on the market. Just keep that in mind please
Sent from my rockin 3D

I guess what I am getting at is, on my D2 I could overclock to 1.1, 1.2, 1.3ghz but setcpu doesn't have a scaler to up my ghz(unless I am completely blind, which happens from time to time). I am currently stuck at the stock EVO clock speed.
What I am trying to figure out is how to overclock to 1.2ghz.
Thanks for the assist guys!

You need a kernel that has oc'ing capabilities. Depends on which rom you run, some only use certain kernels

Undervolting is done with kernels that support HAVS, setcpu on the other hand is for adjusting CPU speed frequencies, to undervolt you need either vipermod or incredicontrol with a kernel that supports undervolting and/ or overvolting.

Tegrak- Overclock/undervolt stock kernel..need root

Well, I have been trying to use Tegrak since they said it was updated for this phone. I kept getting error messages but I think they did another update. You can overclock to 1.452. Anything above and you need the paid version. I am on the stock kernel now. If this is already known, I apologize. I haven't seen it mentioned. I can imagine what 1.6 would look like. Time to push it up a bit..

yup. Although this thing is such a beast I dont see a need to OC it, UV to save battery, yes I actually have mine underclocked to 1.1ghz and undervolted -50 across the board and I notice no dip in performance so far, this thing is still buttery smooth and fast

to chime in, I know most kernels with UV built in usually do -50, so if you did a -50 across the board you should be ok. Some speeds you can get away with more but if you UV too much it will lock up. I think the higher speeds you can actually UV a **little** more than -50, maybe -75 but it really depends on your chip
I really wonder how they do this on the stock kernel. It's the first I've seen that will allow you to OC/UV without a custom kernel..
Oh and OP: I think you should add more to the thread title.. like "Tegrak - Overclock/Undervolt on stock kernel!!!" I think it would get a lot more hits

Yeah, underclocking can help on the already great battery life and if you are a speed demon, this app does that as well. I usually just test to see if I got a strong phone or not.

Has anyone else tried? What are your thoughts so far? I've underclocked to 1.1 and UV -75 across the board. Havent been able to see if it makes a difference in battery life yet or not.

hehe like I said in on of the other posts. If you change the thread title I'm sure it will get a lot more hits. If people see "Tegrak: Overclock/Undervolt stock kernel" They would click faster than if they just see "Tegrak" just a suggestion though

root?
I apologize in advanced if this has commented anywhere else.
My guess is this requires root, and that the comments about stock kernel are in regards to root + stock kernel.
Just to keep the doubts out, does this require root?
Again, I apologize if this is said in advanced. Probably checking the app reqs would answer this question. Just commenting it as it may prove useful for me and for others as well.

I would LOVE to give this Tegrak thingy a try but I am somewhat confused on what needs to be downloaded and installed.
I am currently on the following:
ROM = midNIGHT 2.0
Kernel = Bubby's [ACS][KERNEL] CWM 5.0.2.3 with sd/internal storage mounted
Mods = Crawrj's AIO mod
Now, when I search for Tegrak on the market, I get the following:
Tegrak Kernel - Free
Tegrak Overclock - Free
Tegrak Overclock Ultimate - $2.34
Tegrak Kernel Donation - $3.73
Which files do I need to download and install? Is it an app? Do I need to flash anything via Odin/CWM?
The apps on the Market really don't say much as to how to properly go about installing this.
I just need to know what I need to do so I can overclock and mess around with the voltages. Thanks in advance.

To mess with the voltages you need the paid version. I have Tegrak Overclock Ultimate. you dont need to flash anything but it says it wont work with a custom kernel, only the stock kernel.

Hey Zedomax.. I need a video on how to wipe my ass. I figured you would have one since you have a video for everything else.

@zedomax, I installed Tegrak Overclock and after installing and giving it root privileges, I get a "Failed to run insmod!" error everytime I try to load the overclock module. I guess midNIGHT ROM is not compatible with Tegrak? I will be forced to flash a stock, rooted ROM like the one supplied by crawrj with his Stock EG30 Deodexed with Root/Busybox 1.18.4 ROM?

tegra appk actually is not working on epic 4g touch

i just got a mod does it have overclock?

so are the overclocks the apps from the market? or is it on the rom? i downloaded the eg30 series

Overclocking isn't a mod its a kernel thing. You overclock your CPU using an app like no frills or setcpu. Usually stock kernels can't be overclocked but you can flash a custom kernel to overclock your CPU. Hope this helps

If the eg30 rom is aosp then any aosp kernel will work if its not an aosp rom then make sure you flash a kernel made for touchwiz or whatever overlay it has. I don't have this phone so I'm not should what type of rom it is but the above statement should work also tegrak will work to help you overclock
