So I know the phone has a 1ghz processor but is that what it actually runs at? I ask because I have one of the newer ones which meant I had to use the alternate root method which doesn't allow me to use custom kernels without breaking the camera. Would I gain anything from installing setcpu on stock kernel and setting it to max 1 ghz or would that be pointless? I remember that by default my hero ran below it's 512 mhz. Any help would be much appreciated.

I believe 998 MHz.. running at 1 ghz doesn't work with most kernels
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
yup 998 and overclocking isnt that cool

I have an Incredible (rooted and running MIUI). I overclock to 1.15 ghz but want to go higher, is it possible to use EVO kernels that overclock to 1.26 ghz. Also, why is it that the EVO can overclock higher even though it has the same processor as the Incredible.
Thanks

Why do you want to OC to 1.9?
Sent from an ice cream sandwich
For me the 1.9 ghz kernel is a bit unstable for every day use . But oc at 1.5cm kernel works much better and 100% sable and battery friendly if you use profile in setcpu.

Unfortunately, that varies by phone. Mine becomes unstable and 1.5GHZ

I have to say. If you gotta ask dont do it! Make sure you setup good profiles for heat or you run a serious risk of frying your phone! Good luck some people got lucky and have no problems running 1.9. My phone has no problem with that speed until for some reason i have yet to discover somthing makes it heat up at random times. After that happened a few times i decided 1.5 is plenty.

I thinks it's underclocked @ 1.9Mhz
Root the phone
Install ROM Manager from the Android Market
In ROM Manager, flash Clockworkmod Recovery
Also in ROM Manager, backup ROM ("nandroid" backup)
Download the kernel and put it on the SD card.
Flash kernel from Recovery
Get SetCPU or CPU Tuner to set the CPU clock
As already mentioned, if you want to OC that high, SetCPU profiles with temp failsafes, etc. are a must. You might want to start with lower CPU clock speeds.
If you need more guides on how to get this done:

The Wiki guide is considered the safest way to root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD
kernel manager has it.
Yeah, it does. Unfortunately for me, it's stable for less than five blazingly-fast minutes Guess I'll stay at 1.5!
I think for a phone that was clocked at 800, 1.9 is far too risky. I have no factual basis to say that, just seems like common sense.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
^I agree^ That doesn't seem logical....
I can't see OC our phones to 1.9 being good on any level. Seems like were trying to push the hardware a bit too far.
Is that how people are able to get Quadrant scores in the 2000+? I can't seem to get that high at all. I have been using pershoot's kernel with CM7...but now on nightly #91- using stock kernel now. I have been cautious on trying out this one...

Why would you want to clock it down to 1.9 MHz when the stock speed is 800 MHz? Even an XT-8086 ran at 5-10 MHz. An 8080 (the year was 1974) ran at 2.0 MHz.....

Lol, i think he meant GHz, typo =P..
As for quadrant, my DZ easily hits an average of 2100+ when OCed to 1.3GHz using Virtuous G-Lite 1.0.2. I really don't trust those benchmarks though, as long as the battery lasts and the UI is smooth, I can't really complain.

Well...ok, I was just trying to make sure I wasn't missing a step. I am happy with my phone's performance, so I will not be concerned about that anymore.

Bravo! I can't believe nobody else caught that.
1.9Ghz will sometimes cause my phone to either overheat or crash. I have it set to 1.516Ghz on Pershoot's kernel.

Hey guys is it safe to use set cpu to oc evo? or what app would you recommend?
I use set CPU and it is safe to a certain point. If you overclock to far your phone will lock up and you will have to pull the battery. You have to experiment to see how far u can go. My phone is stable as a rock at 1152 MHz but gets llocked up at 1190 MHz so like i said experiement with it

614 mhz is the new OC! Try over clocking for sure but you see more profitable results under clocking. I do however use set cpu to OC when I am charging

Fellas,im looking to use SetCPU to OC my evo,i need a custom kernel i assume.two questions.
1.can i flash a custom kernel using the mount/unmount zip in recovery for my GodMode Synergy?
2.What Are Good Values,im trying to safely underclock to save battery life.

@gotheart, I strongly suggest freedom kernel by Lithid. There are bugs as it is in beta stage but he is an amazing developer and will implement an incredible kernel. He has one specifically for godmode so make sure you get that. He has versions that underVOLT the processor, using less battery. Though I would be cautious as some phones become very unstable with these changes.
Underclocking for CPU is variable... I like 614 MHz, some choose to go lower. I have noticed Sense ROMs (like synergy) are a bit more touchy with performance tweaks. For me, even in hot weather I need to bump my settings up, as my phone can't keep up with the heat.

Thanks so much man.i was a dev at one point..but i dunno jack about clocking cpu.lol.so youre saying 614,as in set the max value to 614 correct?and i sure will check out that kernel

in my rooted room setcou and other tools shows the cpu as stock or base at 1.0ghz but will let me overclock it to 1.2 not 1.5 where it should be on stock rom it was stuck at one and on the sony ported one it will let me goto 1.6 but it get real hot and unstable at 1.5 whats the deal did we gt lied to on the cpu thats realy in the phone fior specs?
A stock Epic 4G Touch is 1.2 ghz.
It's 1.2 Dual core
thank you for some crazy reason i thought the factory specs was 1.5 but still dont explain why the os limits it to 1.0 if i didnt root it
T-Mo's is a 1.5 qualcomm, maybe that's what you were thinking of...

if ur running any custom rom with a battery saver script they most likely have it set to 1.0ghz sometimes even lower just regular usage i have it set to 800 and it runs smooth as silk ..if your not doing anything extreme you might never notice a difference by overclocking... actually im lying there is a deference the bugs that come with extreme overclocking not to mention the reduced life of your phone...but i think we're all guilty of overclocking just to do it.. and most of us just to brag about quadrant scores here's mine over clocked at 1.6 on performance with blendz rom but got really buggy

Hi does anybody know of a kernal that will enable me to overclock my wildfire to about 800mhz, my wildfire runs smooth at 768 no problem. But i have seen people with wildfires overclocked more than 800mhz. Depending on what rom it may work on i would be more than happy to move to another one. I was using CM9 unofficial but got bored after a while tbh ever since it came out i had it so.... anyways it would be of great help if you could leave a link for download for the kernal(s)
I don't think they're are any atm, and the amount of people that can oc to 800mhz without a problem I think you can count on one hand.
I was like you able to run at 768 on both my wildfires but when I pushed it to 800mhz it was too much. 788mhz was fine but 800mhz and it just froze then rebooted. Also the battery drain was worse at 788 and they're really is no noticeable difference in speed.

overclocking up to 800mhz could be possible for wildfire but i advice you not to do that it's very dangerouse for your CPU and Battery and GPU

Just a little correction: I might be wrong but our Willy has no GPU at all Everything else would be my suggestion, too, but I think OC in general should put up a warning sign - everytime - at least the lifetime of your CPU will be cut even if you try to do it responsible lol
