I would like to overclock my Dinc, I'm currently running skyraider 4.0 and have the stock kernel running right now. I wouldn't mind upgrading to a new kernel.. but all the ones I see give you about a 100Mhz overclock. This would be fine.. however I'm wondering if I could overclock to a potentially more unstable speed for a minimal amount of time.. are there any kernels that allow this? Also, what kernel would you recommend?
Thanks,

No kenel that i've seen on the inc have surpassed the clock speed of 1.2 ghz so no.
Alright thanks.

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.

Not sure that's true. I'm overclocking the kernel on this Tbolt and there's no source released for it either.

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.

Kind of off topic, but what benchmarks (apps) are you guys using to determine the effectiveness of your overclock?

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.
Hello guys...I was wondering if it was possible to overclock on Ics as of yet..Im running Calk's lastest v3 build and its running perfect as can be no issues at all...also Mijjz latest build run excellent for me too but anyway guys just wanted to know if Overclocking is possible yet on ics because I love performance lol....Thanks in advance for any help.
Set CPU and tegrak have screwed up systems causing lots of reboots

set cpu and tegrak work fine for me. But as for overclocking an ICS rom it is not possible yet. This is because your not overclocking the rom, your overclocking the kernel and there isnt enough development that i know of yet that allows us to overclock. However, im sure it will soon be here. I believe they are just working on making everything work and stable before the make everything blazing fast. But hang in there im sure steady Hawkin is working his ass off and going to get us something working soon for a clockable kernel.

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.
How can I overclock i'm on CM10 and don't want to lose anything but get 1.8ghz cpu!

CM10 is currently beta so it is not possible until someone takes the kernel and then modifies it to OC. Besides, AOKP and CM9/10 will run faster than overclocked stock ICS. Overclocking IMHO isn't worth much other than bragging rights....best thing is to undervolt and keep smoothness but increase battery life.
Well the thing is on ICS stock I was getting upwards of 5000 now on cm10 I'm getting 4100-4300 (quadrant standard) also my wifi is way slower for some reason not sure to blame cm10 or something with my hardware
Just got 3894 something's wrong!

Ktoonez made a Jelly Bean kernel that supports overclocking and undervolting. I've been using it on TGFY's AOKP ROM and it's been great.

For some reason that kernel isn't playing nicely with CM10. I ran CM10 and KT's JB Rom and both were super fast. Quadrant and Bench scores aren't that reliable. Anything JellyBean is new territory so don't expect it to be as good speed and stability wise as ICS or CM9 yet. I bet in a couple weeks we'll all be over clocking jelly beaners flashing new updates daily!
If your willing to use cm9 faux123 has an excellent kernel for overclocking to 1.8.
The ktoonez kernel is rockin cm10 at 1.809Ghz for me!!
