Is anyone having luck with overclocking? I've tried various kernels and am now running whatever is included in Calkulin's ROM, but anytime I go over 1.036 GHz with Overclock Widget, the phone locks up...anyone able to run the 1.26ish GHz setting? What kernel?

Not all phones can handle being overclocked to higher settings than their processors were made for
For instance I am good all the up to 1190mhz but any higher and I get a restart
1.152 is max for me.

the only kernel that has got me up to 1.226 is Snap 8.1 on CM^. I was able to run 1.226 stable where as with any other kernel/rom combo, I was only able to get mine up to 1.9.
So there is some truth to the every Evo is different theory when it comes to overclocking capability, but there are also some variable in the kernels such as voltages that can allow for higher clock speeds
nertch 4.18 @ 1.228
Thanks...that's kind of what I was hoping/expecting to hear. I didn't think they would set it up to go to 1.26ish if someone hadn't been able to get it to work.
mine will only goto about 1.2 before a restart so give it a shot and see how it goes haha.
I am using fresh 3.2 rom and netarchy 4.1.8 bfs kernel running @ 1.267
I apologize in advance if this is a noob question, but I can't seem to figure it out and I've checked all the threads in the forum and a few on google.
Ok so, I recently installed the KingxKernel # 2 on my Evo running CM6.
Now I currently have setCPU installed and it works great, but for some reason, it won't accept that I can overclock the processor and it only allows a max of 998 Mhz. I know that my kernel/processor is capable of overclocking because I downloaded the Overclock widget and installed it and was able to clock to 1.26. (I only OC'd to 1.15 though because of some things i'd heard) So i guess I'm really just asking if anyone knows why I wouldn't be able to overclock with setCPU. If you think it's just a kernel issue, feel free to recommend a better kernel for overclocking, undervolting, etc. Thanks in advance.
u need to click on autodetect speeds. also, this should be in the q&a section

Thank you so much! I apologize for not posting this in the right section.
Galaxy S II running Lite'ning ROM v2.2
I've got the same issue with mine, except from that the Auto Detect won't fix it. I've got a Galaxy S II with Lite'ning ROM v2.2, and i want to overclock my phone from 1.2GHz to 1.4GHz. But for some reason, the max value of the overclock cannot exceed the original 1.2GHz. I'm also using SetCPU.

You're not using CF Kernel, are you? In order to OC you need some other Kernel
i use cf-kernel and have same problem, when i use autodetect i can even only clock max 500mhz :s
My SetCPU has only about 3-4 different frequency options between 806Mhz and 245 MHz. Is there any way to increase the number of options between these two frequencies?

U have to root your phone and flash some ROMs depending on which type of rom do you like, it comes with kernels for overclocking or you can flash one if you want to. Rooted stock rom doesn't have any compatible kernels it breaks some stuff so you really need to use a different rom..

Well if he's using SetCPU then he's already rooted, so he's got that covered.
OP as jojo stated, you need a custom kernel to allow overclocking. A lot of people seem to be fond of Pershoot's OC kernels, but I personally just use the one thats included with CM6 and now CM7. It allows an overclock up to 1.5ghz.

I think he's wanting to know how to add more underclock frequencies. It can be done but you have to decompile the kernel in order to do it and also have decent knowledge of voltage tables (since the purpose of underclocking is to save battery power you have to uv also). Probably well beyond most peoples comfort level however, if the op still wants to attempt it are numerous threads with info - just search for something like 'creating a custom kernel' or 'make a kernal'. One of them is located in the G2 development forum.
Oh ok thanks guys. Yeah, I have Pershoot's kernel so that is not a problem. I was trying to include more underclock frequencies, but if that means editing or creating my own kernel then forget it lol, I'm no expert on that.

There's a turbo ROM that can deep fry your G2 to 1.8ghz, and it has a lot more frequencies below 806.

Hi since i am using my desire iam asking myself if there is a kernel to overclock the device more than the usual max. of 1,2 ghz which are given in the most roms and propably kernels....
In the past i hat an acer liquid which actually uses the same cpu but some sort of broken or not well done ones so itonly runs at 700 mhz but mine was actually able to up to 1,1 ghz so i think there must be at least some desire which are able to go higher than 1,2 ghz, but until now did not found a 2.3 rom or kernel which enables this.
Any one arround here who knows how to modifie a kernel to enable more frequencies?
The best I've seen so far is 1113 Mhz...but of course different Desires have different capacities. I can cook up a kernel for you with 1.2 Ghz, but you have it from me that it will simply reboot immediately!
I did some experiments with overclocking, and round about 1113 MHz was the maximum stable frequency, above my device got serious instability / freezes.
mine is running stable at 1190 mhz now but want to test where its stable but cant find a kernel for sense 3.5 which supports higher frequencies...
but as you said before every cpu is differnt maybe it can go higher

Sandvolds ICS goes up to 1260Mhz with SetCPU, forgot what kernel it uses.

Does it just enable the freq or it actually is stable at that freq? If the latter, then I do need to have a look at the source!

Err I'm not 100% sure that THAT was the actual frequency, but it was the 2nd highest setting (highest setting rebooted) and it was fairly stable. Check it out with setcpu
Try this:

Try to take it to 1.26 Ghz

Are you able to add usb menu for sense 3.5 roms? Maybe also in your last stable kernel? Would be very great.

I dont use that rom. Maybe if your dev can provide info about why Htc's default kernel causes that bug in his rom, then I can check it out...
Just got the following answer of Sebastiaan:

Are you able to get this fix? Maybe in Gingercakes github. In his kernel it is working, too.
Sorry I have no experience in Linux and kernel developing so I don't know where I can find this fix to send you a link to implement it.

Hi Droidzone,
so here it is:
USB Mount Fix
Are you able to implement this fix in your overclocked and last stable GB kernel as well?
Many thanks.
I'll see what I can do.
Ok, it's done. Remember to share the link to webpage rather than reuploading the kernels, if you want to share them..

Yes of course. While sharing I will post the link to your webpage.
Many many thanks for your assistance!!
No problem. You did your part too. I was indeed aware of the github, but I just wanted to gauge your level of interest..

I was very interested in your kernel as per some user reports. So lets have a look how smooth it feels with the rom I am using
Thanks again
Hi,
Would this kernel work with roms like cm7 or oxygen? I currently use eviolett's manu 2.1 at 1190Mhz without any issues and would like to see if my phone perform stably at a higher speed.
I'm quite happy with the stock ROM. Is it possible to overclock it? Do I just need to install a overclockable kernel? Will I lose any functionality due to bugs/etc? What's the most reliable kernel for O/C?
Thanks,
Nick
It is possible to OC it only via a custom kernel.............so i recommend that you try the Dust kernel by einstein.frat
Yea he's right. what you need is only being rooted and recovery for flashing kernel..and of course a program which controls your cpu such as setcpu..
i recommend you kernel that cm7 used with last update. it supports 864mhz even and with no stuck( and battery drain )if you search for it on xda i am sure you will find..

In any way......DO NOT use the CM7 kernel...........an AOSP kernel is a bit different from the Stock(sense) one.................................it won't work
Thanks all. It looks like I'll give the dust kernel a try.
Are there preset CPU MHz settings for overclocking or is any integer value allowable? Most of the overclocking threads talk about 768Mhz, 806Mhz. My guess it's probably constrained by some clock multiplier factor.
oww i am happy to learn that
Plzzz reply which wills sbe the best overclock kernel for stock miui 12
