dumfuq just posted new versions of kernel. Try that lol. Though... I'm not sure if it's the kernel's issue

I don't think the espresso OC kernels break wifi. I use CRmod and none of the OC kernels from dumfuq broke wifi in it. I think wifi only has issues with CM6 based roms.
Anyways, I use the v3.1 806 kernel with 0 problems, and I did use the 844 kernel too with 0 problems (I went down to 806 because the benchmarks between the two weren't big enough for me to take a higher risk of frying my phone).
I suspect the latest 3.5 kernels are just as stable, I have been to lazy to nandroid and upgrade.

Alright thanks, maybe it was a bad flash, ill try the newest dumfuq oc

Trying to keep it original just faster

Hi I'm new to the mytouch slide so I was wondering if there was a way that I could root it and overclock it I saw something about there being a special made kernel for overclocking it, would I need that, I want to keep the original sense ui but if I have to I'll just go to the froyo/sense rom.....i guess

I tried keeping the original slide rom rooted and overclocked but i dont think the kernal matched well since i had constant issues and needed to reflash the rom over and over. Its best just to go with a 2.2 rom and overclock. They are more stable. The latest cyanogenmod actually has the overclock kernal in it.

So should I just drop sense ui all together and just go with cyanogenmod or go with froyo/sense?

Sense roms are sexy and all, but I've used 2 of them for the slide now, both have some pretty major issues. The froyo one was the most glitchy. Cr_mod is eclair, but you can apply the oc kernel and install setcpu. The rom still has an issue here or there but nothing like the issues with froyo sense roms. I'm using cm6.1 rc2 and I have to say its still the fastest rom that I've used for slide. The cm roms were the fastest on my old g1 as well. PLUS they include the overclock kernel. I definitely recommend cyanogenmod.

Idk man, it depends what you can deal with and what you cant. The rom 3rd Sense seems to be the best froyo sense at the moment since it has a2sd, wifi, and bluetooth working but from what i read, it has rotation problems and no keyboard lights. Its making progress though.

ok cyanogenmod is soundin pretty good right about now but all really want with sense is the benefits which are contacts(sim,tmobile,facebook), myfaves(can kinda do without), gbutton, and the widgets. are there ways to keep these?
Gbutton is now google search and there are sense-like widgets. Also, the facebook app does add friends to contacts.

ok so i went head and put cyanogenmod on it and its really a jaw dropper lol its really cool now i just gotta see if im up to date on my radio because ill get 2g in the weakest areas, 3g in some areas, and H which i heard stood for 4g in most but when i get this it cant connect most of the time, it flickers like its trying :/

You need a over clock kernel. There imply available on 2.1 roms right now
Haterz gonna hate. Just keep hatin. I brush them haterz off. It ain't my fault my epic's e-penis is bigger then the evo's e-penis.
Lol. Evo epenis needs viagra. Nerds over at ppcgeeks banned me for proving evo suxs steve jobs nutsak.

It's not possible to overclock with a DK-28 Modem, you have to be on 2.1 Eclair to overclock.
Can you explain to me how (and where) to find a kernel and install it. I know how to use Odin to get back to 2.1 and I can reroot it, no biggie. But I have no experience with installing new kernels. I'm kinda learning as I go... thanks for the help: )

Here's a OC kernel. Odin back to 2.1 (DI18), root and install the kernel in the provided thread.

This is the kernel I was using prior to 2.2 flash. Worked great! Very fast and stable.
You can also try SyndicateRom with the Xtreme kernel. I enjoyed that before the froyo leaks started.
Yeah those days feel so long ago,I wish we had source for 2.2.1 alreay... Anyway I found Phoenix kernel to be the best,alot less bugs.That with any DI18 ROM was awesome.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Regardless about how anyone around here feels about this gentleman, I would say for a 2.1 Rom your best bet would probably be Baked Snack (1.6). I won't post a link but all you have to do is google Baked Snack Epic4g and youll find it.
I went back and fourth to Froyo leaks a few different times as new ones were released, and I still always end up reverting back to this Rom, it just seems to be the snappiest 2.1 (or 2.2 for that matter) Rom available, It has a well working apps2sd, kernel options for best battery life, (IMHO) and you can overclock to either 1.2 or 1.3 ghz on it. Just my 2 cents. For me the only quasi-important feature I'm missing out on by not running Froyo is Flash, but TBH thats not that important to me. I'm never too far from a computer if I need it that bad.
is 2.1 with overclock kernel that much faster than 2.2.1 without overclock. I like my rooted 2.2.1. not really wanting to go backwards.
a slower chip running a newer OS or a faster chip running and older OS....ya 2.1 OC'ed will be fast.
I hate how everyone listed a different ROM, it's just so daunting now! It makes me afraid to switch from stock!
check this out, list of roms kernels etc/

[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
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
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.

Kind of off topic, but what benchmarks (apps) are you guys using to determine the effectiveness of your overclock?

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.

Which kernel for OC

I have ROM XM-8 Vr 1.3. Please tell me which kernel is the best for this ROM when I want overclock. My next question is which range speed is good for overclock. Thanks
Try drowningchild's mod kernel. It has 120-806Mhz clocks. I use it like that with smartass1 governor. But it breaks wifi tether.
I found version 7 and 8.9.1 which is better? Thanks
I'm using XM-8 as well and I'm over clocked to 825mhz, runs awesome.
