[Q] Gingerbread Kernels that Support OC/UV - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there, I'm running Oxygen 2.1.6. on my Desire, and I'm trying to squeeze a little bit more out of my battery, and owning a Galaxy S as well, with the Galaxy, there are Kernels that Support OC/UV.
I'm wondering if there are any good kernels for Oxygen 2.1.6 (Gingerbread) that support OC/UV Thanks.

snq- 0.6 kernel supports oc/uv I think

I saw those, but I'm unfamiliar with how to flash these files. I'm used to having a zip file to either flash in CWM, or in Odin ( which the desire doesn't use)
The files in SNQ's are Z-images and .ko's...
I'm more familiar with the more n00b way of flashing kernels :X terribly sorry.

That is a Sense kernel. It is sometimes better not to write anything than to post an erroneous info. And furthermore, uv doesn't work properly with it.

What more do you want from Oxygen? Thalamus kernel supports both uvoc and is probably most efficient kernel as is.

Flash newest oxygen with newest kernel. And I am pretty sure, you will be very happy it. I tested many rom/kernel combinations with software like setcpu und low-voltage-scripts. With oxygen I only reduced maximal cpu frequeny to 768 mhz and min 245 mhz with the included cpu controller and do not get a worse battery life with other roms.

Nice, I'll give it a test. Thanks

you need to make sure your using an oc kernel or you cant overclock ..... if you are just buy setcpu from the market .....
So I just need the OC Kernel? how bout the OpenDesire?

open desire has oc kernel, richardtrip just released an oc kernel for sence roms too here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801435, like i said just use setcpu,
Ok..So what I need is just a ROM manager to flash it right? then backup it before I flash it?
well it depends on which ROM you are running ,
>if you are running some non-sense roms like Open desire or Defrost ,
then you can use setcpu directly ,because it comes with overclocked kernel
>if are using sense ROMs like leedroid, Nextsense etc,
you need a overclocked kernel you can download it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801915
flash the zip file in recovery mode , then use setcpu
i recommend you to reboot after overclocking ....
If I use OpenDesire rom how much Mhz can it increase after overclock?
That depends on the "quality" of your cpu
(the cpu is guaranteed to work at stock speed, anything higher is a guess, and may be cause of instability)
In case of a "bad" cpu you might be able to get it to ± 1050 Mhz
I've seen "lucky" people mentioning ± 118*Mhz (don't remember the actual number )
And don't forget it will put a extra drain on you battery.
This is something you could have found yourself by searching / reading the Developers sub-forum

my phone works well at 1118mhz, im just waiting for a kernel that will let me oc it abit more
i tested my desire with opendesire-4.33 you can safely overclock your cpu to 1190mhz using setcpu ,,and remember it drains your battery like hell,, set your scaling to on-demand mode.

[Q] Which KERNEL for Stock Sense ROM to OC to 1.7-1.9GHz?

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.

[Q] Kernels?

Ok... can someone please tell me what HAVS, CFS and SVS means?
HAVS - no idea
CFS - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_Fair_Scheduler
SVS - no idea
lol... i guess google is my friend
HAVS (Hybrid Adaptive Voltage Scaling) What this does is provide SUPERIOR BATTERY
Really? Anyone else use these kernels? Whats the risk, is it risky like flashing a Radio?

No, only thing is some undervolted kennels might not be stable so always nandroid before changing kernel.

AOSP Kernel for SENSE ROM?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=FAQ#Kernel
here's a link with "all" neccesary informations
--------------------------------------------------------------
i would like to add a new question in this thread:
is it possible to use an AOSP Kernel like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893484
with my SENSE-ROM ? (currently using ReflexTSense http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791315 )
thx
No, at least I know that way. You have to use a Sense kernel with a sense ROM, like this to run without problems.
so there's no option to use newer Kernels with Sense-ROM's ..
thx for the information
Sorry to break into your thread, but does it work the other way round? I mean, is it possible to use a Sense kernel with an AOSP rom?
sense with asop and the other way
i tride som ASOP Kernel with my SensHD Rom and it worked "booting
i found a flickerning screen but it worked; i refalashed a sense kernel
i think that the other "Way" should also work with some "issues"
greetings..
ps: i somewhere on thos forum found a discussion between two ROM-Programmers about using ASOP Kernel in Sense roms.
As far as i remember they both found the conclusion that sense-kernel are using differetn Graphicdrivers so that a asop kernel never will run "full" with a sense-rom but the ASOP Kernel COULD be modded in "future"

[Q] overclocking g2 with sense

please bear with me as im pretty new to this.
so a few weeks ago, i rooted my g2 and installed sense ui (desire z rom)
now i tried to overclock with the kernel from the unlockr page titled "How To: Overclock your perm rooted/ s-off T-Mobile MyTouch 4G or T-Mobile G2."
the overclock works great except for one thing, the video player doesnt work. none of the videos whether i made them or from youtube will work.
id like to know if i did something wrong.
You have to do a lot of research on which rom and or kernel you get they all have things that dont work... Either videos, blutooth, number keys during calls.....

As shortlived said you can flash karnels and overclock your phone but some things will not work, especially video playback. Read some threads and you will get an idea. Also you can try Virtuous you can download the advance karnel(You can overclock to 1.5 ghz) and everything should work fine.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z/G2 Using XDA Premium App
now that's figured out, has anyone successfully overclocked the g2 with sense or is it better to overclock with the stock rom?
Overclock kernal always can't support video playback well. Maybe you can try one by one to find a suitable

Okay it matters what sense your talking about. Gingerbread sense right now works with the stock sense karnel and sense 2.2 in the other hand can be overclocked ( Use Virtuous since you can download the advance karnel and overclock to 1.5 GHZ and like I said before everything should work.) As for stock Rom, I wouldn't waste my time since there is CM7 or CM6 is better. Also you can overclock both to to 1.5 ghz
Sent from my HTC Desire Z/G2 Using XDA Premium App
Kernels are linked to the ROM being used, not to the hardware. Therefore, you need to be specific and tell us which ROM you used (as the reply above also mentioned). Different custom ROMs often have recommended kernels. Another thing, Froyo kernels are not the same as Gingerbread kernels. Plus, the kernels for Sense based ROMs are different from the vanilla (non-Sense) flavored. The kernel you mentioned appears to be for the stock G2 ROM (non-Sense). That is probably the main reason why things aren't working right.
If you are on Virtuous, then flash one of the Virtuous kernels. Virtuous comes with a 1 GHz overclock, no kernel flashing required. But since you've flashed another kernel, you should be able to flash the Standard kernel to get back to it). Or you can flash the "Advanced" Virtuous kernel for more OC options.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967153
If you are on a stock Sense Froyo ROM, the Godspeed kernel works great.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847724&highlight=KERNAL
If you are on some other custom Sense ROM, read the thread for that ROM, to see what kernels are recommended.
Or if you want to get real crazy you can flash the 1.8ghz kernel just dont expect everything to work.

This is going to be my Kernel palace
GB Kernel V1 include:
Overclock to max stable 1836 mhz
Under-volt all frequency
New low power level (Saves ~8ma at battery for low fps apps)
Add 5 more frequency table
Use readl_relaxed and writel_relaxed
Add interactive, smartassv2, lagfree governor
Implementation of 2-Phase OnDemand
P930 Gingerbread Kernel V1 (Work on Nitro HD and Bell Optimus LTE)
SU640 Gingerbread Kernel V1
LU6200 Gingerbread Kernel V1
P930 CM9 Kernel V4

Your original nitro rom is maybe not rooted...
And no kernel does not change one thing about root.

Any chance of adding init.d support? I have a set of sick tweaks that really promotes battery life and performance.
However, I can only install part of it (manually).

init.d support is already in my rom, this is why i don't see important to make it native in the first version.
In next release it will be native.

Which ROM? I installed Kernelpan1c Nitro HD ROM and my wife is liking it very much (it's her phone). But she wants me to hook it up with my init.d scripts as she knows how much battery life and performance is improved. However, when I tried to add the init.d forlder manually, the phone soft bricked. I guess I should post this in the ROMs thread, but I am using this kernel, and as far as I knew, in order for init.d scripts to work, your kernel has to be compatable.
I love this kernel but I love to use cm9.
I know the developer here wants to wait cm9 to rc stage in order to make the kernel for cm9, I would like to ask if you can change your mind cos cm9 original kernel is so lagging. Pls help!
