How do you over clock?

Does anyone know how to over clock you're DI to say 1.2? Thanks for any help.

You first need to root your phone, then install a kernel that is compatible with whatever rom you are using, then you need to install an OCing app like SetCPU and adjust accordingly.

I'm rooted running the 2.2 RUU and I have set cpu. So do I just need a kernal? Which one?

i reccomend King Kernel bfs #4, best freaken kernel ever... its located... here

so when i install this kernal is it ok to just bump the cpu speed up to 1.2? are there any guides to do this?

A lot of factors come into play when you start overclocking, every rom will respond differently.
The first thing to do before anything is to do a complete nandroid back up.
When overclocking keep in mind that the more you overclock the more chances you have of making your system unstable.
I have experimented a quite a bit and I have found that the King Kernal #4 seems to work well for me and at 1.2 it seems to be pretty stable. Any higher than that and my phone will sometimes re-boot itself for no apparent reason.
Again, your rom may handle things different so experiment and see what works best for you.
And remember - Do a complete backup first!

I'm using the number 4 kernal and it only goes to 1.19 is this what you mean by 1.2? I have to keep mine at 1.1 ghz at 1.19 my di gets unstable

Ya that's as high as they can oc these chips. I can only get to 115 safely 119 just crashes. But the charging experience will be better than stock with the BFS #4.

Could you guys please tell me what your settings for setcpu are?
I want better battery life and a faster cpu but im noticing that my phone almost needs a wake up time when i come out of screen off.
Thanks so much

If you are experiencing slow wake up, try increasing the min cpu speed to something around 460. Better batt life and increased speed takes a lot of experimenting. Your OC speed might differ from others due to differences in the phones cpu. For example, I have never been able to oc to 1.19 without the phone freezing or rebooting. My phone can handle 1152 but 1113 is perfect. In my opinion, ROMs have something to due with best batt-speed combo. I am running Ruby 1.1.1 with a setcpu profile of Screen off=245 without any wake lag. Other ROMs I have tried had wake up lag at that speed profile.
My set up:
(ROM-ASOP) Ruby 1.1.1
King's #1 ASOP "I told you so"- only works with ASOP
With the ROM's "Gem" performance scaling setting off, I use setcpu to OC to 1113, min is 245. I have a profile set to SCREEN OFF = 384 max/245 min.
I haven't worried about battery life since I started using King's kernals (I've tried them all with every compatible ROM on xda). I have several posts elsewhere on XDA showing 12 plus hours on a single bump charge and heavy phone use. Good enough for me. Stock cpu speed plus Sense ROM seems slow to me now.....to each his own though.

I hope to get some help because i value the opinions of those on this forum. Currently i am running virtuous 2.7 with virt. kernal v2. I am rooted, s-off, 2.15.xx radio. I want performance without draining my battery. What are the best settings to use in setcpu?
I did try king's kernal #4, but it was rebooting. switched kernals this morning.

One other app I use in conjunction with SetCPU is MinFreeManager. This will readjust your free ram to a higher standard. But with SetCPU I have it at 1113/Ondemand with no custom profiles. One other thing I really don't set is the Set on Boot option. I don't know why but I do. So with SkyRaider Vanilla 3.0 RC3/ KingX Kernel #4/ and MinFreeManager my phone fly's. I can't say for certain what settings you need for your phone but 1113-1115 is preferred by "most" phones and keep the set on boot option off. I keep a Galaxy S live wallpaper running and pandora while browsing the web and no lag what-so-ever.
CyanogenMod 6.0.2 and KingX kernel #1 with the same setup runs almost as smooth.
Hope this helps you out.

[q] want a rom with overclock built in...

Can anyone tell me the best rom that comes with an overclocked kernal built in? Looking for a kernal that has killer battery life also. I've been looking but i'm new to the dinc and am not sure what the best one is. I tried to install a custom ziggy kernal with incredibly re-engineered installed but it started rebooting every time it started up... Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Did you read everything before flashing ziggy's kernel? this is quoted from his site. did you have setcpu installed before you flashed?
NOTE1: If you’re having problems, please uninstall/disable SetCPU and any init scripts first. A lot of the issues are OC related. If everything works fine after doing that, slowly start over-clocking, if not, please post. Once the problem speed is found, report it, but most likely, it’s a voltage issue, not all phones/processors are equal. Since these kernels have snq-’s VDD sysfs interface, you can modify the VDD levels yourself. If there are any Java developers that would like to tackle the task of writing a program to assist, please do, I’ll help as much as I can

oh and make sure you dl the right kernel its the bottom 2 on his page. i made that mistake earlier today. tryed loading a bravo kernel and my phone got stuck in the splash screen

Incredibly re-engineered comes with Lou's #8 kernel, which is my understanding that it already has pre-configured screen off speeds, governor etc. It could be as simple as a wipe cache/dalvik that would solve your problem.
Other than that, i'm curious as to why you are looking into OC when you want killer battery? Those don't go together

Ok. I missed the setcpu statement. Ill try that... and I want to oc because this inc wont play the only game I play worth a crap compared to my old x... homerun battle 3d... im hoping that will help...

hmmm homerun battle 3d plays fine on my end. Check my sig for my rom and kernel, stock speeds.

chads incredikernel is probably the best for gaming, its oc-able..i actually run it some days on 1075 mhz performance, and get great batt life

[Q] Myn's Warm ROM Question

I guess I'm under 10 posts so I could not post in his thread.
But I installed the rom and everything is awesome btw,
Now under his alternative kernels it has the Netarchy's agressive v7 kernel, I installed it, and if I put setcpu at 1.267 ghz my phone shuts off and reboots?
IS there a reason why?

Also it just went to its first reboot and it went into a bootloop?

K now it's not bootlooping but it starts up and after about 15 seconds it reboots.
EDIT: I flashed the stock kernel and its fine now, but I want to OC it just a little why is it doing that?

you cant overclock it above 1.1 as far as i know thats all the cpu is really capable of

On this rom?
When I had the Evio 2 rom and stock kernel it would go to 1.228.
And on this one, 1.267 makes it reboot.

any kernels or Roms that i have had it would always loop above 1.1 your lucky that u got it to go that high how was it at that speed lol.

i was told that if you OC and start having bootloop scale back the OC until it gets stable again.

I got netarchy's 4.3.2 kernel and it's clocked to 1.228, wont go any higher since the incident.

From my understanding, no two phones are exactly alike and one phone will allow you to OC more than another. The most I ever OC to is 1.19 but I usually keep it at 1.15 and it is very stable. I've gone up to 1.267 and it still worked, but I only left it at that number for a few seconds and I never tried to go higher.

It's a crap shoot with overclocking. With different ROMs, Kernels and hardware in play, the results can be very different from one version to the next. This is the nature of overclocking. As mentioned in a previous post, you need to keep notching it back until it gets stable again.

Well it was hard to notch it back since I had set at boot checked and it was at 1.267, so I had to re flash the stock #15 htc kernel, and set it at 998 and then flash the new kernel and now it's at 1.228 and stable, and not to mention my battery is amazing.

I keep mine at 1.19 as well, I had it higher at one time, but there's not that much
improvement in performance for me to risk my phone boot looping while i'm asleep at
night.
BTW, Myn's ROM is really good but i've always use KK #9 BFS for it overclocker at 1.19
with no issues, no reboots, only secks.

[Q] Clocking higher then 768 setcpu latest cm7 stable

Hello, to start yes I'm really stupid! I did watch the video in the start to try and find the answer to the following questions but it just confuses me and I would really like to get this done, thanks and on to the question!
So minutes ago I got my CM7 working for the first time! And right away I wanted to increase the clock of my CPU but it won't go higher then 768 on setcpu. From what I managed to understand its because of the kernel... So is it possible to increase the max clock with another kernel, if so whitch one and how much is safe to clock?
Thanks!
HTC Buzz (Wildfire)
Android version 2.3.7
Kernel version 2.6.35.14
Mod: Cyanogen 7.1.0.1 build GWK74

Yes its the kernel that controls CPU speed, test it for a while at 768mhz as not many wildfires can even cope with that, if you have problems random reboots, freezing etc then turn it down a little.
Kieranftw made a kernel called infinity ice or play I think? which made it possible to oc at 788 or 800mhz, mine was fine at 788 but very unstable at 800 so now I just settle for 768 as I didn't really notice a difference between the two, any higher than that is asking for trouble imo.

ok thanks for the answer, ive had no errors with the current settings, maybe ill keep it like this for the moment

[Q] From 1024mHz to 2016 ???

I recently flashed "myONEv rc1.1" ony my One V..
All smooth, really nice rom
Although while using Rom toolbox and going to cpu sliders, under "performance"
i noticed the core could now reach 2016mHz when before flashing could only go at 1024 ...
I dont really mind with 2016, it isnt even the current clocking, just the max the phone says it can reach, and battery life seems to be the same as before.
Does this tweak come with the new rom ??
Is it normal ?

That would be the work of Titanium Kernel allowing you to overclock.
I would overclock slowly and test over time. If you set it to 2k it'll probably freeze and stop booting/reset and do other quirky things. Slowly OC and find your point of stability if you're going to overclock at all.

Yes. The ROM includes the TITANIUM kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1607976
But you should set it to a lower frequency if it is not stable at that speed
If it is - you are a lucky one

Well i handnt noticed its set @2016 two days after i flashed the new rom. and its been 24 hours since then. So its 2 days of no problem usage. It works fine with the "maximum" slider so high. Ofcourse the phone is not working at all times @2016..
Thank you for solving my question

as far as I know rc 1.1 doesn't not comes packed with titanium kernel
did u flash it afterwards?
dont just say thanks hit thanks if i helped
