I have my device rooted with setcpu aswell. to overclock, do i need to install a custom rom?
Cheers
You need either a ROM that comes with an Overclocked Kernel (e.g. LeeDroid if you want Sense or CM7 (Cyanogen) for non-sense to name but two).
The key thing is Kernel. You can chose any (with few exceptions) rom then flash an overclocked Kernel such as LorD's. (all in development thread).
Thanks Il have a look there now
No worries. (Have a free thanks, accidently hit the button).
If you have any questions about the procedures feel free to ask here.
Was just about to ask the same question
I have a rooted Gingerbread stock ROM installed on my DHD, will I lost all my data is i flash the LeeDroid Kernal?

Hope this is right place to ask. When installing custom roms.. can I also install custom kernels from other people to go with those roms? Example being that i rooted and installed Fresh 3.3 with stock HTC kernel. Can i install netarchy kernel on top of Fresh rom? Thanks for any help and bearing with my noob questions.
Yes. You can install a custom kernel from a person besides the ROM author after you install a ROM. Netarchy's kernel is fantastic. Nice choice. Just make sure you download and install the Fresh compatible kernel and you'll be all set.
Thanks for the quick reply.. I had done a lil more searching and found my answer as well....
Which one of nets is compatible and between net and king which kernel is better and faster

Hi. I have a S-Off, perm rooted T-Mobile G2 and would like to use this method to overclock my phone:http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/14/ho...ted-s-off-t-mobile-mytouch-4g-or-t-mobile-g2/
Q1: Is it recommended?
Q2: It requires me to use a custom ROM, which I do not want to. Is there an "original" rom that has ADB Remounting which I can use instead?
Thanks in advance.
I'm not able to view the method you've posted from where I'm at right now, but I can tell you that the most stable, "permanent" overclocking experience I ever found when on stock rom is CM's BaconBits (which includes an overclocking kernel among other things) used in conjunction with SetCPU.
you will need Clockworkmod recovery installed on your phone to flash the baconbits zip. I'm guessing you already have this - if not, you just need to install Rom Manager and you will be able to flash cwm recovery through the app.
from there, all you need to do is install setCPU (it's free here on XDA - just search for it) and use it to set your clock speeds.
easy as pie method for overclocking on stock rom.. and my guess is that it will be more stable than anything you get from theunlockr - it seems to me most of their tutorials are a bit outdated for the vision.
Download ROM Manager and use it to download Pershoot's kernel.

you can try pershoot's as well, but I will say that it did not play nice with my G2's stock froyo rom. this was a few months ago though so maybe there has been a remedy and it's working swimmingly now.
if you get pershoot's kernel to work, I would recommend it over baconbits as pershoot is constantly updating and improving it.
Just to clarify.... You need to change your kernel to overclock not your rom. A lot of roms include an overclocked kernel but that doesnt mean you cant flash a kernel with your stock rom. Make sure you set up a heat profile with setcpu so you dont fry your phone.

Thanks guys for all your help.
I went with a more simple solution, and flashed CM7.
Now it looks as nice as the original and has 1.5GHz overclock.
Do I need to set heat profiles for CM7 or the stable release will take care of it?
Hi all:
I´ve been reading hundreds of post regarding roms and kernels and Im not sure if I can change the kernel to put for example unity v9 or 10 without changing sotck rom.
I want o OC and 2 way recording but I dont want to change rom.
Is this possible??
Thanks in advance.
No problems changing the kernel on a stock rooted ROM.
Just remember you're looking for a sense kernel, not an AOSP kernel.
Flashable from recovery.

I believe you can because i also own I9001 and since there's no proper custom rom for it when the kernel was available, people had flashed that to get init.d support but i'm no dev. If you have clockwork then you can try flashing it if you want...because i never heard of flashing a kernel alone but with the custom rom.
Thanks for the answers.
Now knowing that I can do it via clockwork.
What would be a good kernel?
I was thinking in Unity v9
Thank you
Its really down to personal preference, and how the kernel runs on your DHD.
Last time I was running sense I used Lees, but I don't know if he has call recording.
PS 4ext touch recovery is really nice.

Ok thanks jagdave.
Hehe and thanks for the suggestion.
Hello,
Today i'll switch from Desire S to Arc. Now I don't want to set up the phone and later on root it. I'll just do it all tonight.
I saw lots of guides and probably I will manage to do it.
In the Desire S Rom sphere it was pretty clear which Rom to choose. GB -> Endymion ICS-> no one really yet.
I rather want a stable and fast Rom instead of ICS for all matters. I don't know the Sony interface yet, do I miss something if I flash AOKP? I just hate launcher redraws..
Any advice, including Kernel, because I would like to overclock.
And please tell me what's the best order to do it. Baseband-Bootloader-Root-Flash.
I know how to flash Kernels, but why and how do you flash Wifi modules?
THANK YOU
Tapa2 desire s
Edit: I'm on a Mac with SDK, do I need windows? I have it but if someone knows how to do it with mac I would appreciate it..
Hey, I recommend Arconium ICS 4.0 with ArcKnight Kernel RC_3.1. Its the most smooth combination I have found. There will be a new kernel out by doomlord pretty soon which should be really good also. I usually flash the baseband with flashtool, then flash the kernel with flashtool, and finally install rom. Also you install the wifi modules through recovery.
Ok, thank you. I was looking at the mooded rom..
Tapa2 desire s
I actually tried it lastnight, it is slower than Arconium. I switched back this morning.
u seriously need to try the Arconium ICS..its very good and well tweaked stock ROM
if you want to overclock then try ArcKnight or XArc..both are good...but if you dont want to overclock and want to have better battery life then stock kernel is the best..
you can flash wifi modules through recovery..
best order is
-Unlock bootloader
-Flash kernel
-Flash baseband
-Flash ROM
-Flash wifi modules if needed
-Enjoy
Well flashtool(software which is used to flash kernel,baseband) is made for windows. I never cared to look for an alternative for Mac.ask any developers if there is any.
Hello!
I just received my wonderful HTC One V from Koodo, and I managed to unlock it's bootloader+ rooting it. From now on, I am completly lost.
My main objective is to overclock it for a better gaming experience. How can I overclock it? Do I need special kernels? Where can I take it? Are those kernels included in specific roms?
My second objective is to install Android 4.2 JB. So how do I install a rom? Can you recommend me a specific rom? Oh, and is it battery-hungry?
Feel free to post links, tutorials, instructions and any other useful tips.
Thank you very much everyone!

Yes you can use any kernel EXCEPT the stock , all custom kernel for one support overclocking , when u have such a kernel the next thing u have to do is use any app from play store to overclock it ..try CPU MASTER FREE..
The most stable and battery friendly ROM on 4.2 is shpongle ..you will find it in original development sections and its installed the same way as the other roms..nothing special just remember to flash the kernel specified in the post..just flash the rom via recovery after performing a full wipe..
Thank you soo much guys now I'm all set with RC9.5 FX+ Sense 5 Rom and TK Kernel ;D
Let's play with my new toy now!!
