WARNING! NEWBIE QUESTION AHEAD...
so, I tried to flash a new kernel today but it backfired. I think now my phone's running "slower".
Status:
S-Off
Android version: 2.3.5
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-EB-CM7-Streamline5
Build: MIUI-1.08.05
Rom: Latest MIUI OsiMood
I'm on 500MHz. What am I doing wrong?
youre running the phone at 500mhz lol thats the problem. This phone runs at 800mhz stock, and most people are running at 1ghz or 1.2ghz.
Unless the kernel and ROM have a built in overclocking tool (which im assuming it does if you know your current clock speed), install SetCPU and crank the speed up.
Either way, clock it at AT LEAST 800mhz.

I'm runing stock Sense ROM and would like to flash Kernel that will allow me to overclock to 1.7 or even more.
EDIT: If possible by insmod (oc module + cpu freq table), that would be even better.
+1
and it should not mess up with the Wi-Fi MAC address & Bluetooth
I tried some 1.5GHz/overclock kernel, either of them changed my Wi-Fi MAC or messed up Bluetooth pairings. Now using overclocking module(GodSpeed)

Oh wow that's crazy. Would it be safe to clock it at that speed?
I'd say 1.4GHz is relatively safe, running it for weeks.
1.9-2.0 definitely insane, but I'd like to try 1.7 and maybe higher to see how far it goes.
So would like to know which kernel from G2 forum would work with Sense ROM, or maybe someone could extract the needed files so we could install via insmod.
I think we only need two files: one for OC and the other with voltage table.

The 1.8GHz kernel on G2 forum works on Desire Z, except Bluetooth.
Just tested on my Hong Kong Desire Z, until they fix the BT issue, I will stay with 1.4GHz
Maybe there is a way to unpack that kernel and only take the overclock part of it, that should keep all other stuff working.

i just came from 2.3 to [ROM] CR_Mod_2.13.531.1_OTA, and i cant setcpu to working right it will get stuck at 245 freq along with other cpu apps wondering do i need to get it working right to save some power
Spoiled from CM lol.
You gotta flash an OC kernel. NB made one for stock I believe.
Hi
Just got my Defy and flashed CM7 RC 1.5 right away. Like it a lot but i am wondering as to why the kernel Version is not 2.6.35....thought Android 2.3.5 or even 2.3 is based on that newer kernel?
Am i wrong or is this just a small bug? Has MIUI the newer kernel?
P.S I would ask in the Dev Section but i dont have enough posts yet to do so...
Every moto phone with omap cpu has the 2.6.32 kenel on gingerbread. Even if it is stock GB so no 2.6.35 kernel
okay...why is that...something to do with the locked bootloader? If so..is there any chance the defy+ which comes with 2.3 Android has a newer kernel and this on can be used on the defy?
Are there any things we are missing due to the older kernel?
Hi guys!
Since I am not allowed to post on Devs threads, I post my question here, hoping for maxio1998 to see it, or anyone related to the Jelly Sandwich Project
I own a Xperia Arc. I had it upgraded through PcCompanion, to ICS 4.0.4.
Since it was very laggy and I had little rom space available, I decided it was time for a change. I unlocked my bootloader, flashed the Advanced Stock Kernel via fastboot and flashed Jelly Sandwich 8.0 in CWM.
The situation is that my processor is not running at its full capacity, and I don't know if it's because of my kernel selection, or due to some tweaks in the custom rom I chose. The max frequency is 806 MHz.
I don't want to overclock, but having it working at its normal 1GHz would be preferred, since it has become to be laggy after a while (not as much as stock ICS, but still...)
Attached is a picture using CPU Spy +, to show the magnitude of the situation.
Is there another kernel that you would recommend?
Thanks in advance

I'm used Advanced Stock Kernel with stock firmware. Advanced Stock Kernel not supported overclock feature.
You can get "No-frills CPU Control" from google play and adjust Max. Clock freq. to 1.024 GHz.

Thanks for the piece of advice :highfive:
It seems it solved my problem. I fastbooted ArcKnight kernel and with that app I'm now able even to set it to overclock if required.
Hello everyone,
I am running the STOCK 2.3.3 rom (verizon) but using this kernel designed for stock 2.3.3 (here)
I can adjust the cpu levels just fine, but no matter what governor I choose it stays at the maximum level, as if in performance mode. I've checked with a few cpu-monitoring apps and nothing seems out of the ordinary at all. The phone also seems to be laggy in games at times, as if there is something running in the background. (But no unusual processes/apps are running)
It was working pretty good yesterday, but I don't know if it was maxed or not at that time, I didn't notice until today. So, is this a kernel problem? Is there another recommended kernel that can overclock properly using the stock ROM?
I ask because I can't find any tutorials on how to install a recovery to flash r800x to install a new rom.
Thanks for reading! I can post more information if needed.
I "fixed" it by flashing a JB kernel and ROM... For some reason, even after switching to the original kernel from the .ftf file it would still stay at max. I'm now using lupus JB v8 and paranoid android and all seems to be well.
Hopefully gaming won't be too bad. x)
