So im curious is there an overclockable kernel for ics that i can use with set cpu. All i see are stock kernels. Are we waiting for more development on kernels? On gb i could over clock to 1.7 which was awesome.

im taking a guess here, so someone correct me if im wrong, but i think everyone is waiting for the ics source to be released b4 they start makeing custom kernels.

Use the search function. It's already been posted that you can use Tegrak to overclock the stock kernel, even on ICS

Doesnt work with cm9,miui, and apperently aokp, since im on aokp and it says kernal not available. Custom kernels would be awesome right now
To begin with we don't have the source. It's not as simple as splitting the zImage and typing in some numbers. Also, there's very little demand for OC'd kernels on this phone. Most people that OC do it to increase performance, reduce lag, play games, and a few other things. Basically they do it for a reason. The ones that do it just because or so they can show it off to their friends are a very small group. Since the majority don't feel overclocking is necessary on this phone there won't be too many OC'd kernels even when we get the source.

There are a couple of ways to overclock the dInc, but it depends on which kernel you use and what ROM you have. For froyo, Ziggy's are probably the best. Tiamat is very nice for AOSP gingerbread. An app called SetCPU can be found for free to XDA members on here. Just Google it. There's also a couple free apps on the market. If you're still using froyo, I suggest only Ziggy's because his will allow you to use scripts to change the speed and the voltage at every step and he lays it all out very nicely, including samples that you can just edit and mix together. The benefit of the script is it doesn't use system resources like an app would.
Pushing it to 1.153 should be hard with most kernels so long as they aren't undervolted. Some devices are stable at 1.19 and some even higher. Few will exceed 1.19 though. Overclocking and tweaking kernels can be an interesting thing. Most kernels with a sysfs or ramdisk will allow some kind of scripting. Definitely check out Chad's IncrediControl.
Another good kernel for ASOP Roms (both gingerbread and Froyo) is Incredikernel. Always check and see if the Rom you want to overclockable and if it doesn't say in the OP ask the creator of the Rom, they'd be happy to help you out. Also, make sure you know the correct way to flash a kernel. It's the same way you flash a Rom, so it shouldn't give you any trouble. Happy Flashing and Overclocking!
Thank-you guys. I'm using kingdom rewind 3d so ill ask joelz if it overclockable and if not...so be it. Once again thanks for the replies

None of the gingersense ROM's will be overclockable until HTC releases the kernel source. Which will happen sometime after we get the OTA. So it's either Froyo Sense or AOSP Gingerbread if you have to overclock.

It's not available on XDA anymore. I'm actually running Ziggy's kernel on it now. I'm gonna change my sig in a second.
I have found if the ROM is developed well enough, overclocking is not needed. You wont see too many benefits.

On 3G, not really. On fast WiFi or LTE, yes. That's when you're looking at situations where the device isn't waiting for data. That's where you'll see the bigger benefits of overclocking.

Doesn't really matter. Quadrant, linpack... you're comparing same setup to same setup. An overclock on one isn't going to yield comparatively different results when compared to any other... at least it SHOULDN'T.
This may be a stupid question...I am having trouble with all the kernels and ROMs determining what is a safe OC for my DInc. I am flashing CM7.0.3 now and I read that it's got OC built-in. I just wanted to OC to whatever is definitely safe. Is that 1.113 GHz or 1.153 GHz as indicated earlier in the thread?
Or is it something I'm going to have test on my device to see if it exhibits a specific symptom?

Your milage may vary, but usually when things become unstable you can't really naviagte to anything and you get a bunch of reboots, or so it has been in my case, but again YMMV.

Every kernel dev has his own choices for kernel voltage and that's usually the single biggest variable in what stable will be. 1.113 should be stable for most devices though.
Thanks for the responses. I tried 1.113 on CM7 (7.0.3) on my Incredible and I started getting constant reboots. I put it back to 998. Maybe I'll try another setting later.
So before I ask my question I wanna make one thing clear. I have 100% respect for the devs that work on our phones and can't wait to see what ICS source brings us.
Now to the question. Before all these ICS leaks we had EL29 source for our phone. However we only ever had on variant of custom kernel (Rogue). All I keep hearing is that once source drops for ICS we'll see a lot of custom ROMs and kernels. If we have source for GB why aren't there any other custom kernels? I guess I'm just a little confused on what source will bring us, besides allowing us to build a pure AOSP kernel and allow over and underclocking on TW roms.
Are you saying rogue was the only gb kernel for this phone?
If so you haven't been here long..

I believe he is referring to gunslinger/hitman and all the kernels before it made by team rogue which allowed voltage changing and overclocking. Not the repacked stock kernels.

Is it possible that we will see an ICS kernel built from source that has been tweaked to support overclocking as well as undervolting?
I realise that source has just came out for our phone but at the same time I find that ICS is rather laggier and has much more latency than when I used GB Juggernaut OC's to 1.73 ghz. Irreguardless of people that will hate on me for saying I experience latency with stock and custom ICS Roms, I am still just wondering if we will be able to OC again one day while on Android 4.0+.
Additionaly,
I know that TheDerekJay has a custom kernel called "Venom" but I do not believe it has OC capabilities.
Does anyone have information pertaining to this subject. All help will be appreciated and thanked

Give 'em time. Faux is working on one, but asks for patience. I'm sure MrX is too, but is probably concentrating on CM9, since he's part of that team.

I'm patiently waiting. Got rid of the lag by backing up stock rooted, eiping everything/factory reset/Darkside wipe...then restoring. Now stock is smooth as silk, and I use Nova Launcher Prime. If this helps at all.

So the other day I installed an unofficial version of cm9 on my Evo. As many of you know, cm comes with options to over clock out of the box. Sadly, with the stock kernel you can only go so far. I found a new kernel online, and flashed it onto my phone, only to find out it ruined the rom, forcing me to reflash cm9. I was wondering if there are any kernels that I can install to overclock my phone further? Pics included

atyoung's Mason ICS kernel should work...
May I ask why you have the desire to.overclock so violently? Most the time, underclocking will even show no loss In performance and save battery. All times I have overclocked, I've never noticed a major difference.. it may be slight but not enough for me to care..
why is your min/max the same?

One more thing.. pegging your CPU at max ghz will eventually destroy your device. The EVO is made with a single core 1 GHz snapdragon and so anything really over 1GHz will really put a strain on your processor. Best advice would be to either flash a new kernel, ROM, or find some tweaks to decrease lag. 1.2GHz isn't healthy for your phone...
hi i'm looking to overclock my sprint epic 4g cpu up to 1.8ghz and also the gpu to 300mahz and 72hz refresh rate
on either cyanogenmod 7 or 10
what kernel and ROM and CPU/GPU overclocking apps should I use with voltage control and what (safe) voltages should I try for the cpu and gpu ARM and Internal voltages (what build number do I need for cm 7 or 10 (either stable or nightly)
also I noticed that the slide out keyboard shift and function keys don't work on cyanogenmod 10 stable build not sure about a nightly build
I'd like to fix the keyboard too
i'd like to be able to turn the boot logo on and off and possibly change it to a different one and also add a boot up sound to the logo
should I use the franko or samurai or maybe a different kernel ?
what modem should I use for max speed (EL30 FC09 FC19 or Nexus LF2 K2 ?) and compatible rom
I know how to install everything just need advice
If all of the above isn't possible at least I'd like to get the CPU to the highest possible speed past 1.2 ghz if possible most of all and not have random reboots or lockups or sleep of death and woking keyboard and least amount of bugs in the rom
Thank you so much in advance for any advice
Do your shift and Fn keys work if you hold them down when using them? Kind of like the way you would use them on a PC keyboard?

Last thing I know of that had what you're looking for is CM9 with Samurai Kernel. The processor clocks to 1.5 Ghz and I believe the gpu is overclocked to 400Mhz. Idk what the refresh rate for the screen is, but that combo would probably be the closest to what you're looking for

^^^^this... there is no franco kernel here, that's for the epic touch... nobody has been able to overclock this phone past 1.6 Ghz... samurai had 1.6 at one point, but it was removed because there were stability issues with most phones trying to overclock that high... samurai has always been my favorite kernel from tw gb roms all the way to cm9... sadly development stopped when earthbound upgraded and there is no samurai kernel for cm10 or 10.1... everybodies phone is different and handles overclocking differently... best bet is to just keep trying combinations until you find your perfect match...

I have used it on CM9, and got it to 1.4 comfortably, but the kernel itself was quarky as hell. The battery died when unclocked and- just all in all at bad kernel.
im curious on what he did to make it do that though. Was it an app he combined into the kernel? Did he expand something?
Technically- OC"ing is just like any normal OC. INcrease the multiplier or frequency and then manipulate the voltage to handle the work. But- THe couple app i foudn that do that- like uh... setcpu, targek or something all arent supported by our rom/kernel/ something. Its rather frustrating.
With the Packman ROM im using, he combined the Performance control into the rom, and you can actually change the voltages- but.. i cant make it go faster.
TO go on with that- i still cant find a way to OC the GPU. i see people saying they got it up to 400mhz. or something. But- HOW!? an app? Kernel again!? heck, i dont even know what the stock settins are. :/
GPU overclocking is achieved in the kernel.

1. He did it by being a kernel master... 2. they aren't supported because of the kernel you're using. 3. And again, the kernel you're using. The only way to overclock the gpu is with the samurai kernel.
4. And most importantly, for everything you want out of a kernel, it's about time to learn Linux and build your own kernel...

Aww man I miss Samurai's 400MHz GPU OC... But the Voodoo defaults there is VERY terrible... Just why isn't there a kernel with ONLY GPU OC (i.e. no CPU OC up to like 1.4GHz (I think games depend more badly on GPU) and no Voodoo and such)...

If you build it, they will flash it!
Yes, for those looking for an easy way out, it's not going to happen. Learn to make a kernel then learn how to manipulate the settings. If it was easy then everyone would be doing it. No one has any other spoon fed answers.
I think not having an easy way out may be the definition of xda-developers. Forget where I read it but it's about the journey rather than the destination, which I know doesn't hold true for every one but I know it does for me.
