[Q] Xoom Not Keeping Overclock - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I just recently flashed the newest XoomZone Rom/Theme and now my overclock won't keep it's settings after a reboot. I would post this in the XoomZone thread but I haven't posted enough yet. I've been flashing rooted Roms for a long time now and have never ran into this. Any Ideas?
EDIT: I forgot to say that I have tried setcpu and android overclock. I have checked set at boot on both and tried regular off then on and reboot. No dice.

[Question] Kernel flashing and matrix kernel specifically.

Hello everyone!
Phone: nexus s 3g running stock 4.0.3 with matr1x 14.0 kernel
my 1st question:
i was wondering how can revert back to stock kernel without flashing my stock rom again or going back to my previous backup?
i know it is very easy to switch from kernel to kernel but i would like to know how to switch back to my stock kernel. If you come across a link please send it to me. Thanks much appreciated.
my 2nd question:
my phone reboots the 1st time when loading up matrix kernel.
what happens is i press the power button .. the phone boots up normally then halfway through the animation it gets stuck and the phone reboots BUT this time the boot animation works properly and i am finally booted to my phone. Note that i have absolutely no issues running the kernel + BLn + Voodo etc (also not oced either)
question how can i solve this? is it normal?
I have one last question (sorry lol)
about voodo colour is there anyway of removing the grren flash that i get from unlocking the phone.
i know i can reset to 2.3.3 colours and that does do the trick but i would like to use my own custom settings..
stock 3.0.8 kernel can be found here in 3rd post

Questions regarding matrix should be asked and may already be answered in his thread
And green flash is common on kernels with voodoo it also turns screen green occasionally for me when auto brightness set
not sure how to fix haven't researched doesn't bother me that much

Alright...
First off is this a specific rom? Like kustom kream, nexus beam..
Or just stock ics rooted
Second, try this again.
Get the rom zip again, then get the kernel zip again.
1. Wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache
2. Flash rom
3. Set up rom
4. Go back to cwm
5. Wipe dalvik cache
6. Flash kernel
7. Reboot
Did you do it like that?

Green flash can be fixed by downloading the voodoo control app in the market then going to the RGB profiles then selecting the voodoo profile

Green flash can be fixed by using either 2.3.3 colors or punchy

im on offical ICS 4.0.3 rom stock (rooted) with matr1x 14.0 CFS
well i downloaded matr1x through rom manager and after wiping dalvik cache i flashed the kernel.
is there anyway of fixing without clearing data? i have a lot of stuff on my phone i would rather not erase... also im on stock ICS so how would go about flashing it again(its not like a rom i can just dl and install or is it)?
speaking of which i know titanium backup backs up apps but does it also backup like my contacts, sms and phone settings etc?
update: i went ahead and only deleted cache and dalvik cache and then installed the kernel again. same problem =/

I'm 17! You want to teach me the basics of modifying roms? How'd you learn? The reason I'm asking is I'm gonna major in computer engineering at Drexel University in Philadelphia. I know Java already.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
exact same problem ....
followed ur steps perfectly.
anyways i just restored everything back.
wow your 16 !
im 16 aswell i dont even know the 1st thing about making kernels and so forth lol.
Lol sorry you couldnt get it to work...
The only other suggestion I have is to try another rom...
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
thanks for trying .
anyways the thing is the kernel works perfectly fine other then that and sinc ei dont reboot my phone so much its really not an issue for me.
just another quick thing since that is the only problem i have experienced with the kernel and that everything else is fine working fine should i be worried about stability?
No, the kernel is pretty stable out of the box.

Charging and Kernel question.

Since upgrading the CM9 kernel to a custom one, my phone will not boot once shut off unless I clear cache and dalvik. Is this remotely normal?

Thanks for the reply, anyone now know how to fix it or is it a wipe and reinstall?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Try reflashing the kernel first and see how it goes. If that doesn't work it is probably best to wipe everything and reinstall.
i had a similar issue with matrix 14.5...it would boot loop unless i cleared the caches...i played around with the voltages and governors for awhile..and it was ok for a day or 2 then it started it again...so i ditched matrix and went with speedy 5 and i havent had a problem yet...

Your phone can't handle undervolt. That's the problem.
I use matr1x, have done since gb days and have never had a problem so its definitely just your phone.
Thanks for all the replies, just went back to stock. Can't have my phone acting up now that I am working. Will reroot once the update to ICS happens on Sprint.

When you really make a clean install of rom and kernel there shoudn't be such problems.
When changing KERNEL always follow this steps !!
1) CWM format /system and /cache
2) go to advanced menu, wipe dalvik.
3) Then reinstall your ROM, then flash kernel right after.
No data loss, system exactly as you left it, only difference is new kernel.
If you are switching to a different ROM, add format /data.

Always "awake"

I have an issue with my gs3 staying "awake" after rooting and flashing a new kernel and the "kindacrap mods".
I'm on the G1 build with lean kernel 1.3, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check to see what governor is being used. Switch to ondemand if it isnt set to this already.
It's set to the on demand governor, I forgot to say that I always have the "pimp my Rom" mods installed

I'm having the same problem with Scott's Stock Rooted VRALHE & his individual mods that I installed which include the 15 toggle, the 3 button power mod, no power up sounds & stock samsung animation.
I'm going to reflash the VRALHE again tonight without the mods and I'll report back.
I tried reverting back to a nandroid backup I had before I loaded the mods and still had the issue. I tried researching it before posting and someone had the same issue until they reformatted their memory card so I tried it but still no dice.

Im on cleanrom 3.1. I odined back to stock and took both ota's, rerooted, unlocked bootloader and reflashed cwm. Im running kt kernel and the thing sleeps like a baby. With stock HE kernel the phone wouldnt sleep. All is great with my current set up.

Take a look at this thread, it worked perfectly for me. As I understand it, it contains a firmware update for the radios and other things that was part of the OTA, but not the part that the flashes are built on.
Anyway I had the same problem and my HE is now sleeping like a baby.

[Q] Can't overclock!

Trying to overclock, and just can't get it to take
ViperXL 3.1.0
ElementalX-1.5
1.09 Hboot
I've gone so far as to completely wipe the 'sdcard' and start from scratch. Running 'lsmod' in terminal shows that the module is loaded, and the max speed I select shows under cpu in venom tweaks. This is driving me nuts! What can I do to troubleshoot?
When you flashed elemental, what did you set as your max CPU speed?
What program are you using to check / set CPU speed?

I've tried 1728, 1809, & 1890. I even tried speeds lower than stock, and it still runs at factory speeds, so I'm thinking something is wrong with the oc module, but I don't know his to check. I tried using the app built into viper, setcpu, and kernel tuner. I thought they may be conflicting, and that's why I wiped and started fresh.

Not sure it's worth the trouble!
Don't I have to relock the bootloader, ruu, then unlock it again? It's been a while since I did it, and I don't remember where I put my token... Or do I need the token?

Try disabling apply on boot in venum tweeks and any other gov app before you install oc in elemental, I had same issue until I unchecked apply on boot then I reinstalled elemental............something is wacky though because I tried to install back to stock with no oc but on reboot settings in Rom revert back and shows oc....thx tho to dev who works hard sharing there work...

Backed up my boot partition and flashed this. It felt noticeably slower after a few minutes so I restored my boot partition. Now my wifi will no longer turn on. How do I correct the issue? wifi will work when I reinstall but If I try to go back to the stock kernel it no longer will. This kernel is WAY slower than the stock kernel.

a reflash of the nandroid boot partition did not work. Still no WIFI. However if I reflash your kernel wifi returns. What modules are being deleted?
Running smooth as silk over here! Does the faux app work on this phone and if so what are the recommended settings that you use please?
Really nobody else with sdcard issues? My 64gb card won't mount. Was working fine before installing kernel

Something is definitely up. Phone seems lagier and using Linpack I now get the same and lower results for Single Thread and Multi Thread. It's as if the other cores aren't being enabled.

My phone runs pretty smooth I have noticed though that the default clock speed is at 1ghz I believe that may be the reason why people are noticing lag ?
Also my WiFi speeds are normal.

I noticed that to 1036. I had to reflash my rom since it broke WIFI.
I noticed before I installed faux kernel app the the kernel is set to max cpu speed at only 1000,as soon as I raised it to stock speed it was working perfectly

fauxsound coding is actually done in my private build, but HTC did something non-standard and is conflicting with fauxsound kernel drivers.. that's why i didn't release it yet.. need to troubleshoot and see what HTC has done to the standard sound driver from Qualcomm...
HTC always do something different from everyone else including the reference design from Qualcomm.... Sometimes they OVER engineered...
