I have been using MIUI-GB as my DD after trying out many ROMs.
The free memory is an issue which i can manage easily with built-in app killer.
I was wondering how do i overclock my processor as there is no OC daemon or any other app in the ROM ??
download set cpu or similar app in market (i prefer set cpu you though) know that this will only work for you with certain kernels but chances are whatever one came with your miui version allows for overclocking/undervolting. if for some strange reason it dosent find a compatible kernel and flash it over your rom

I installed "CPU Control Lite" and oc'ed my phone to 1.2Ghz. It said you kernel does not support UV'ing. But after oc'ing, my phone is behaving strangely. Launcher is forcecrashing. While playing music, if a notification comes, the music app crashes. Is it because of oc'ing or rom issue???
Can't say for sure but if it started after overclocking than this is more than likely the cause. Try 1.0ghz

Try setcpu, or cpu tuner. Just try. I use setcpu, ov until 2ghz

As dem' says, try 1gHz to start. You may find that stock speeds with a better governor makes it more responsive.
Also you should have to kill apps unless they are causing problems. When you say 'built in app killer' do you mean in the app management in settings or is it an app that came with the rom?

I would like to boost my performance a little bit either through another kernel or overclocking or both. How do you overclock the Dinc, and do some kernels overclock better than others? Thanks for any help.
Certain kernels have higher overclocking ceilings than others but none are "better", per se, for overclocking. Check out setCPU or CM7 has overclocking preferences built in.

Ok cool.
I am running cm7 but also have setcpu, is one preferred over the other? And as far as overclocking, do you just start increasing the speed slowly until you get it where you want or it becomes unstable?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I would just use the built in OC of CM7, I've heard that using both can cause conflicts. And yes, just bump up your frequency bit by bit and if you start getting reboots or freezes, dial it back. For AOSP kernels, I've founds incredikernel to work really well, then invisiblek, then tiamat. Though incredikernel does have a lower OC ceiling than the others.

"kernel manager pro" in the market may also be useful for you. It keeps up to date on which kernels work specifically for your device and you can flash from the app. I'm currently using Tiamat 4.0.2. It will clock to 1228MHz
So on the miui.us.us latest after installing tiamat kernel everything works great...but do I need to install something like setCPU(which I would like to avoid) to set clock speeds etc etc. I'm pretty sure you do seeing how I can't find it anywhere in settings. I know in roms such as mexdroid and the like new kernels replace "performance settings". So I'm thinking I need to use setCPU.
Thanks for any help given

I'm not completely sure about that specific kernel, but its a pretty good idea to run SetCPU if your ROM doesn't include CPU settings.
For example, if the kernel you installed OC's up to 1.5ghz or something, you may prefer to run at a lower frequency. SetCPU is probably a good idea. Also, if you want to run at 1.5ghz you're going to need SetCPU profiles for heat and screen off, etc.

Thanks for response. I know all about setCPU, I just don't like it. But yeah looks like that's the only option. Although miui.us seems to be clocked at 1GHz so I think I'll just stick with that.
Thanks again...and tiamat kernel works great on it

Good. Yea I don't like setCPU either. I use the built in controls in CM7. If you're happy with the stock clock speed and don't have issues you won't need to use it.

So, everytime i overclock my Wildfire, doesnt't matter if through cyanogenmod settings, or through CPU Master, or SetCPU. Settings goes back to 352-576Mhz after some time, how do I overclock it permanently? Also, what is the Perflock? When i click Disable Perflock, nothing happens
When I was running cm7 I had no problems with overclocking, reflash maybe?
Per flock is something in some HTC kernels that prevents over/underclocking, so its not in cm7 as it has its own kernel.

when you are using programs like CPU Master you have to check "Set on boot"
also I never had problems with overclocking

That is also up for using the cyanogenmod settings. Plus I also never had overclocking or underclocking problems.
Guys... When you overclock, what does it really do to your phone??? And what are its advantages??

I wonder wat causes all the random reboot,is it got to do with undervolt,overvolt,CPU speed and minfree value?

..overvolt?
Anyway undervolting and CPU speed can definitely cause reboots. Some phones can't go beyond 1.2GHz and I know undervolting can cause instability when brought down too low.
Personally I haven't had a random reboot in as long as I can remember, but I also don't undervolt and I don't OC past 1.2GHz.
Well,I'm using sense rom in the moment,enabled swap and supercharge.. and oc it at 468-1458mhz.. =\ still reboot,does vm heapsize affect rebooting?

My phone's upper limit is also at 1.4GHz, runs stable on it, but haven't really felt the need for that. One thing that comes to mind is that your lower limit is pretty high. What governor do you use? Do you have a profile for screen off and what's the frequency fork there?
I would assume that with that setup the phone gets pretty heated, which could very easily cause random reboots. Any idea what temperature it usually runs on?

Maybe you should try lowering the upper limit to 1.2GHz for a while see if it makes any change... in the meantime it might be helpful to know:
a) Which specific rom are you using?
b) Any custom kernel?

Android revolution 6.3.3 (sense 3)
And unity v9 kernel..
Sent from my Desire Z using xda app-developers app
mine used to reboot when i first had it, searched the net & it suggested the sim card.... made sure it was pushed in properly & its been fine ever since....
I found out when I use this android revolution 6.3.3 rom,and flash a music player mod by lyapota,it mix up the word,like holding home it appear recent app,but after flashing I get your personal information and if I use home long press to multitask,the whole phone will just reboot :/

Ive done a lot of seaching but cant seem to find the answer....
I have a P936 running a slightly modified version of AT & T's ICS P930 ROM and Kernal.
Ive just finished setting up everything but want to overclock and dont know which kernal to choose.....
Any help? My software version is V20c.....
Use wind kernel, you won't be disappointed. Just make sure you run through the whole thread for the p930/6 version. I'm now using it on a clean v20f, couldn't be happier.

Awsome, thx man! Im rockin at 1800MHz now
But now I also want to OC the GPU, know any good app for that? I cant seem to find one...
Faux123 kernel tool is designed to work with windkernel and allows gpu over clock and many other useful tools for kernel tuning
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
Faux clock lets me set the GPU's 3D clock speed to 320MHz and thats where Ive got it. But the Wind kernal is also supposed to allow overclocking the 2D speed. How do you do that? Cant find any setting for that in the faux app. They say something about echoing something somewhere in the Wind kernal thread.... Any help?

Ok but then will the setting stick or do I have to set it again via terminal every time I reboot?
