[Q] How to overclock Sensation ? - HTC Sensation

Hi guys,
I have a sensation with an official rom ( HTC Europe 1.45.401.2, kernel 2.6.35.13-g3422292, radio 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_m ). I made an update to android 2.3.4 and now it's S off et rooted with revolutionay, cw, busy box.
CPU is scaling on demand beetwen 192/1188mhz , i have cpu master. set cpu does not work with my sensation.
Could somenone tell me how to proceed to overclock my cpu ? what kernel ? and so on ....
thank you very much

You need to have a kernel that supports overclocking. There are a few available in the Development forum.
Though I HIGHLY recommend installing a custom ROM, as the performance difference is huge.

Hi, thanks for your answer, I tried an custum rom but it did not work for me ... maybe i did something wrong
I tiried Revolution HD but i did not succed. I have a few questions about this rom.
Is the kernel already included in the custum rom or do i have to flash it again ?
Does someone know if there is a kernel available pour original rom on 2.3.4 ?
thanks

Hi,
Which Revolution HD ROM did you install?

hi, i tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 . i could not overclock

Have you tried the last of Leedroid with V7 ROM and program Overclock Virtuous? I have it and you can play around with the frequencies and see the stats you get with some Benchmark

Hi,
currently that ROM is using stock kernel.
Therefore it is not overclockable.
look in post 2 for any kernels that will allow o/c.

I don't own a laptop but I am rooted, s-off. Is there anyway for me to overclock without having to connect to a computer and flashing something?

I downloaded a setcpu.txt, for setcpu to find frequencies on my phone, flashed a kernel and I was all set. Had the same problem.

How high can you OC? I flashed a kernel but it only allows me to go up to 1512... and for some reason I'm still getting lowish quadrant scoream.. Between 2200 and 2600.... Any ideas on why?
Sent from my Virtuous Sensation overclocked to 1.512ghz... I know... I know....

Quadrant is bs, as well as every other benchmarking app out there.

antutu benchmark is somewhat legit.. atleast it does not output totally different score at the end... like quadrant.

Hi,
Kernels are a personal thing,because everyone uses their phone differently.
Try a kernel for a couple of days ,and see how it works for you.
Look in the DEV Section
You have bricked,faux and sebastian to choose from...
Make a nandroid backup,wipe cache and dalvik,and flash away.
bricked

Hi.I use ViperS 1.6.2 ROM with Bricked kernel on my htc sensation. So, could you help me with Governor and I/O scheduler settings? First i install it by default (badass and cfq) and test in antutu and quadrant benchmark. Outputs are about 7500 and 3800 points. Then i install Governor as userspase and I/O scheduler as noop. Outputs are about 8500 and 4300 points. It looks like the second form is better, but what about energy saving because i use this rom no so long ago and cant make a choice?May be you propose an alternative settings!
Thank you and sorry for my english

Didn't you do a nandroid backup as i told you?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app
Haha lol I did but it still shows max frequency at 1.8ghz but runs at 1.5 even if set CPU is on 1.8 I'm now on 2.1 GHz using profiles makes phone faster and also saves battery if using profiles properly butt how do I go complete to stock kernal where on quadrant it shows 1.5 without having to run ruu Just wondering but I'm lovin the kernal
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
what rom are you on and do you want the pure stock
some OP pages of custom roms may list it
or pull it from an ruu
or there is a stock nandroid floating around, maybe in the ruu thread, that you can extract it from
axiom has a v01s one I believe would be close to stock
running it now
check trickdroid 6.1 OP flashable script stock kernel
I'm running virtuous v09x I do not want to go back to stock everything by running ruu tbh I don't want to go back to stock kernal but atleast I have option if I want to
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
not saying run the ruu, just get kernel if possible from it or from a stock nandroid in ruu thread
but trickdroid 6.1 has one in OP
Its impossibile that you got The same kernel if you did a nandroid backup before flash The custom kernel..

I did though honestly no worries I'm liking the custom kernal and ill run ruu if I need to go back

Hi,
The best kernel,is the one that works best for you.
A little trial and error is required.
Make a nandroid and install away.
They are all listed HERE
What he said
But keep in mind that trial and error means at least a couple of days with each kernel, as a kernel (or a rom for that matter) cannot be fully evaluated and appreciated within an hour or so..

Try them all and see which one works best . I've tried faux, bricked , and sebationfm, and anthrax. I'm using anthrax 384min 1404 max xondemand gov and I get anywhere from 16-18 hrs of the way I use my phone . If you wanna try anthrax just google anthrax kernel us. Also depends wich Rom your using sense or aosp. Some kernels are universal just read up on that kernel

I suggest Faux or Pacha
Faux' kernel is pure SH!T as he'd KANGING without permission and crediting all work to himself! Use ButteredToasT instead, no kernel get's smoother.
Thank you everyone for your comments it help
I will test every kernel for sensation and then I will post the benchmark scores.

Since it hasn't been mentioned, you can try my kernel (Sultan kernel). It's available for both AOSP and Sense ROMs. Links to my kernels' threads are in my signature.
EDIT: Haha, just remembered that you posted in my kernel's thread :silly:. In my latest post in that thread there is a GPU overclock init.d script that can raise your 2D GPU score a little bit (there's a bug in the newest release of my kernel where the 2D GPU doesn't overclock to 266MHz by default, it stays stock clocked at 200MHz by default, so you need to use an init.d script to get it to 266MHz. This won't be a problem once Axetilen finishes that amazing Aroma installer). You should be able to get 4,800 in Quadrant with that.

Nevertheless, people shouldn't use a mashup of multiple developers having invested thousands of hours of hard work stolen by a single guy named Faux123 claming everything to be "his own work". This piece of crap deserves to be permbanned for life.
faux gives a good battery life, but sometimes its a bit laggy. Bricked is smooth, overclocked kernel is more than fast :laugh:
I'm using the bricked...it doesnt matter which kernels u use..just make sure it is compatible with yr Rom.....most important thing is that..keep the max btwn 1.4-1.7ghz for better performance...

[Q] Sensation keeps rebooting

Hi there,
Hope it's the right place to ask.
I have HTC Sensation which keeps rebooting randomly.
It doesn't happen while charging.
I tried several roms: viper, revolution etc.. and problem still exists.
tried to change cpu max/min to 384/1188, scale interactive, still happens.
even without external sd...
is there any other thing to check? thanks very much for the help
Try stock ics rom ..or Android revolution hd with stock kernel
If problem persists , then defiantly its hardware fault..
