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

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

Hi Droidzone,

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..

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.

Hi Modders and developers! I have noticed that the kernel of hero is locked so technically overclock widget and setcpu don't work on it! I was wondering if some of you can remove the perf locks from the kernel and compile a new kernel which can be used with setcpu and overclocked to liking! I know this is hard but please give it a try! Millions of hero users will be thankful to you! Thanks!
It's been discussed many times, as I understand once 2.1 is released the kernel source will soon follow, there's no point doing the work until we have it.
Well Lox released a beta kernel a while back for 1.5 firmware rom's to do this...
It was a beta release but here is the link anyway:
http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/302182/beta-run-your-hero-at-660mhz/
Sure it was discussed there were no noticeable improvements.
maxo64 was able to tweak it to run at 528mhz with screen on and 2** with screen off! so can any one of you change those while compiling a rom?
i searched every where but the only kernels that work with setcpu and actually allow you to overtweak and down tweak are for cdma hero! CDMA! please develop one for gsm hero.....
I second your motion! Was thinking of starting a thread with the same question...Would love to be able to down tweak to 192MHz when screen is off, or maybe even lower.

Hello,
setcpu and overclockwidget not work correctly, but with overclockwidget I see actual cpu freq., and if I "sleep" phone, freq. go down (24x) - if you very very quickly unlock screen, you ca see this.
I try this with VillainROM5,22 and Androbin1,111x.

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.

What is the safest speed you can overclock the samsung epic 4g? I am using the Tegrak overclock right now, and I found out the ultimate can run up to 2ghz.
That doesn't work. You have to be using a custom kernel to overclock the Epic and it is only safe up to 1.4ghz.

FYI, complete newb to this stuff, so please bear with me. Are you saying that it takes a custom kernal for the Tegrak Ulitimate, or the the version I have right now? With the Tegrak Overclock, I put it at 1.3 and it seems noticably faster.
Tegrak ultimate shouldn't work at all, and you're lucky it didn't royally screw up your phone without a kernel with support for overclocking. Look in development and select a custom kernel to fit your tastes then download either SetCPU or OverClock widget and use one of them to raise the clock speed on your phone. I recommend either of those because they are tried and tested methods.

Weird, on the android market it says that it (the standard Tegrak) works with stock kernels, custom kernels, and custom roms. I checked before installing it and I just double checked it now
For the record, it has been a while since I played with my phone, but it's kernel right now is 2.6.32.9

Another thought; I've had setcpu for a while, but didn't find much use for it as the phone is already operating at 1GHZ, which is the max SetCPU will allow the phone to work.
Because there isn't a kernel that support OverClocking installed.Once you have an overclock-compatible kernel installed SetCPU can raise the CPU speed.

I see. Thanks for the info
Also, while tegrak may work I strongly recommend a custom kernel for added stability, along with overclock capabilities up to 1.4ghz (depending on if your phone can handle it) undervolting and other useful features.
Each phone is different. Some phones can handle 1.4ghz, others can't even handle 1.2ghz. You just have to test it out and see what your phone can handle.

After reading the link to Twilite, I am interested in running the SyndicateROM Frozen. Any chance someone could walk me through the steps? I'm not being lazy and am doing research, just want to make sure I don't screw up my phone. I am at work right now, so I haven't even attempted to get Twilite yet. Perhaps getting the new rom would accomplish two things at once??
Edit: After some reading I think I will be ok, but if anyone wants to chime in then feel free.

i actually find the power saving feature more power consuming(aside from brightness and vibration), i think it causes all processors to start up at lower frequency rather than 1 cpu at high frequency.

Hey, i have this problem from the begining...
So i have android version 4.2.2.
I'm running phone on franco Kernel 3.0.85 with Paranoidandroid Rom 3.56, Also i use app to OC my phone to 1,6ghz.
So everything is okay expect gaming , example when i play temple run 2 and i set on the best quality it will not run smooth you can see lags ingame and i think this phone should run it easily.
I was reading forum but i didn't found any solution for my problem, i tried to find busfreq_static with following informations :
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/busfreq_static
but there's no busfreq_static file when i enter to cpufreq directory , i use File Explorer just to check am i able to find busfreq_static file but i can't.

first, dont OC to 1.6!! the following may help you:
go to Settings and click on Developer Options and enable Force 4x MSAA. Multisample anti-aliasing (MSAA) is a technique used to improve image quality. Since the Gnex has a GPU capable of supporting MSAA. Keep in mind this will also cause your GPU to work harder and your device may get hotter and consume more power than normal. It’s also possible that all games may not support this.

It can blow up your cat. If it's the same with 1.2GHz... Why are you OC'ing? Go do some reading on voltage control and smartreflex on 4460.
Something tells me you're forgetting basics on how to OC on this device. If you don't supply enough voltage for all the cpu steps, device will stutter and lag, might even reboot.

first thing you need to do is disable SmartReflex® across the board, so that your user-defined voltages stick.
messing with voltages is very device-specific. increment voltage by small ammounts, stress-test and use the device for a while to make sure it's stable.
have you tried running those games while running Google's stock kernel?

Do you even know anything about ROMs and kernels?
When I said have you tested this on stock kernel, I meant, did you try this on stock ROM, but specified kernel because, it's like, common knowledge for someone who flashes ROMs, that custom ROMs devs often alter kernel (and ramdisk) to support features on their custom roms..
Have you for example tried reflashing PA, and just PA, nothing else? Does it lag then?
Have you for example tried fully reverting back to stock? (factory images)
Why is it that you just want your games not to lag, not even trying to gain a deeper understanding about what people are telling you.
Listen, this is the last time I'm saying this:
I told you to check your voltages, since you're OC'ing, and expecting SR to do the job for you.
Test by reflashing again PA, with no custom kernel.
Test by going back to stock, through fastboot/factory images.
Temple Run 2 on best quality lags in mine too.Probably it was designed for 1080p.Just keep the graphics a little lower, doesn't affect gameplay or quality
