Develop Bugs

Rooting newbie.

Hi, I just rooted my g2 with visionary. How tried the 1ghz overclock gscript thingy and just madr my phone slower than before with quadcom benchmark scores the lower than stock unrooted. Then I came across someone saying using that method is like a rough hack and something abouy voltage, and suggested to use pershooter's kernal as it correctly changes the batterys voltage saving more battery and overclocking even higher. What is kernal? And can I use with stock froyo ?

For ease of understanding, the kernel is the underlinging OS (think MS-DOS for Windows, Windows runs on top of DOS). And yes, you're correct. Pershoots kernel does under-volt and isn't available for stock Froyo but do a search for Baconbits and use that.
If you haven't toyed around with flashing things, I suggest using ROM Manager (by ClockworkMod) which is available in the Market; additionally, try SetCPU instead of the gscript; it might be easier for you to manage.

Read the Wiki and read the forums if you don't want to be clueless.
If you like the stock ROM, then stay with it; if you want more control, then flash a new ROM. If you want to overclock in stock, flash Baconbits v3; if you want to overclock (with undervolt), you'll need to flash CM and pershoots kernel.
Like I said, read the Wiki and the forums; for ease of use, download ROM Manager (can flash CM, pershoot and Baconbits there easily), and download SetCPU (probably easier for you than a gscript).
Really though, unless you're wanting to take chances and learn as you go, just stay stock; but since you've already opted to root, take a gander at the threads and Wiki and see if anything interests you; if not, there was no need for you to root.

Get your phone back to full non-rooted stock and reroot using Rage.

If you want to try out Sense, head over to the Virtuous thread. I highly recommend that. If you want stock then try cm6. Considering cm7 is in early development, you might want to stray away. And there are tons of themes you can flash on top to make it your own.

Tegrak- Overclock/undervolt stock kernel..need root

Well, I have been trying to use Tegrak since they said it was updated for this phone. I kept getting error messages but I think they did another update. You can overclock to 1.452. Anything above and you need the paid version. I am on the stock kernel now. If this is already known, I apologize. I haven't seen it mentioned. I can imagine what 1.6 would look like. Time to push it up a bit..
Stock kernel at 1.452..

What voltages are you using? I have no problems at 1.56 at 1.375V. I didn't touch internal voltage. I haven't tried to go any higher. I was basically just playing around with it for a few minutes.

yup. Although this thing is such a beast I dont see a need to OC it, UV to save battery, yes I actually have mine underclocked to 1.1ghz and undervolted -50 across the board and I notice no dip in performance so far, this thing is still buttery smooth and fast

to chime in, I know most kernels with UV built in usually do -50, so if you did a -50 across the board you should be ok. Some speeds you can get away with more but if you UV too much it will lock up. I think the higher speeds you can actually UV a **little** more than -50, maybe -75 but it really depends on your chip
I really wonder how they do this on the stock kernel. It's the first I've seen that will allow you to OC/UV without a custom kernel..
Oh and OP: I think you should add more to the thread title.. like "Tegrak - Overclock/Undervolt on stock kernel!!!" I think it would get a lot more hits

Yeah, underclocking can help on the already great battery life and if you are a speed demon, this app does that as well. I usually just test to see if I got a strong phone or not.

+1 I can go 1.564 at 1375 fine

Has anyone else tried? What are your thoughts so far? I've underclocked to 1.1 and UV -75 across the board. Havent been able to see if it makes a difference in battery life yet or not.

hehe like I said in on of the other posts. If you change the thread title I'm sure it will get a lot more hits. If people see "Tegrak: Overclock/Undervolt stock kernel" They would click faster than if they just see "Tegrak" just a suggestion though

root?
I apologize in advanced if this has commented anywhere else.
My guess is this requires root, and that the comments about stock kernel are in regards to root + stock kernel.
Just to keep the doubts out, does this require root?
Again, I apologize if this is said in advanced. Probably checking the app reqs would answer this question. Just commenting it as it may prove useful for me and for others as well.

I would LOVE to give this Tegrak thingy a try but I am somewhat confused on what needs to be downloaded and installed.
I am currently on the following:
ROM = midNIGHT 2.0
Kernel = Bubby's [ACS][KERNEL] CWM 5.0.2.3 with sd/internal storage mounted
Mods = Crawrj's AIO mod
Now, when I search for Tegrak on the market, I get the following:
Tegrak Kernel - Free
Tegrak Overclock - Free
Tegrak Overclock Ultimate - $2.34
Tegrak Kernel Donation - $3.73
Which files do I need to download and install? Is it an app? Do I need to flash anything via Odin/CWM?
The apps on the Market really don't say much as to how to properly go about installing this.
I just need to know what I need to do so I can overclock and mess around with the voltages. Thanks in advance.

To mess with the voltages you need the paid version. I have Tegrak Overclock Ultimate. you dont need to flash anything but it says it wont work with a custom kernel, only the stock kernel.

Hey Zedomax.. I need a video on how to wipe my ass. I figured you would have one since you have a video for everything else.

@zedomax, I installed Tegrak Overclock and after installing and giving it root privileges, I get a "Failed to run insmod!" error everytime I try to load the overclock module. I guess midNIGHT ROM is not compatible with Tegrak? I will be forced to flash a stock, rooted ROM like the one supplied by crawrj with his Stock EG30 Deodexed with Root/Busybox 1.18.4 ROM?

tegra appk actually is not working on epic 4g touch
can u post any apk. thannks

Ok, so which stock ROM should I flash? The one by crawjr? The stock deodexed wth root and busybox?

Quick question about a new kernel

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?

The rom I downloaded is a little laggy, just wishing to speed things up a bit.

Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

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...

Best route for overclocking with CM10?

This is my first rooted device and I'd like to set the CPU frequency higher. I've read that 1600 is moderately safe and 1800 is feasible. After installing setcpu I've realized that CM10's kernel does not allow overclocking. What is the best action to take? Am I out of luck if I want to stick with CM10? Or is there another kernel I can use compatible with CM10? Thanks for reading.

Try kt kernel in original development, I've used it with great success. Has oc up to 1.89. Also allows you to under volt to save some battery. In conjunction with ktoonz kernel get voltage control from the market to adjust cpu clock and voltages.

Mine has been getting pretty damn hot just at stock clock speeds...you sure you want to do that? CM10 is so fast already!

Thanks for the suggestion. I used Leankernel all day without a single issue that isn't specific to CM10 right now.
P.S. I also upgraded the modem to I747UCLH1 from this thread. To anyone interested, test your data speed on all three modems to find the best one to keep. My rates doubled with this new modem.

Kt new kernel up. 2.1ghz ktweeker app. Running Sammy version and it's blazin fast.

Hey this might be a bit late on this thread, but Siyah has just released an updated, which works with cm10 and allows for overclocking up to 1600, and undervolting to save on that ole battery... currently for the galaxy s3

Obligatory reminder:
Not all phones are the same. Some tolerate overclock/undervolt better than others. What you WANT your phone to do may not actually be what it WILL do. Start slow, only change one step at a time. I would recommend finding the perfect oc point for your phone, then slowly, slowly working the undervolt into it.

Best kernel for over clocking 4.3

Okay so I'm using a rogers i747 currently running Quantum rom v1.05 and running the latest bionic sheep kernel for android 4.3. I'm looking to overclock my device and wanted some tips and advice from experienced overclockers about it. Should I use this kernel for it? Different kernel? How far can I safely (it's never safe but let's say as safe as possible) push the CPU. What about voltage settings? I've never touched my voltage before nor overclocked so the more specific the details the better.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I personally suggest the BMS kernel, found here. Just be sure to choose the right Linux base version and stuff for your device. Since you are running 4.3, i would assume you should choose the 3.4y based build. Be sure to triple check before you download though. I have been using this kernel for quite a while overclocked/undervolted and get awesome battery life.
Some advice -
Undervolt slowly, in about 5mV intervals. Test voltages for a while before going lower.
Research before you apply!
