OK, here's my first real contribution to the Android community... and I owe all credit to the amazing cooks out here...
I take no credit for anything, other than the fact that I kanged Paul's, Pershoot's, Cyangen's, intersectRaven's, Ivan Dimkovic's and Termana's work...
PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE DOWNLOADING AND FLASHING. I SUGGEST U READ THE POSTS OF THE ORIGINAL KERNEL AUTHORS AS WELL.
This is a mod of the Desire Camera R2 port by Paul.
I just pushed the changes to various kernel mods including the stock CM506 kernel.
This should work on any stock version of CyanogenMod... tested on CM 5.0.5.x & CM 5.0.6... These mods should work with other ROMs as well, but I have not tested any. Try at your own risk.
Instructions:
1. Pop the zip file onto your SD card.
2. Reboot into Amon RAs recovery.
3. Do a nandroid backup [VERY IMPORTANT IN CASE YOU FACE SOME PROBLEMS!].
4. Select "Flash zip from SD" and select this zip.
5. Reboot.
Note:
This will flash a modified Pershoot's OC/UV kernel boot.img and replace the camera app. Flashing the boot.img is necessary since this mod requires a change in init.rc. Flashing another boot.img will cause the Desire camera to FC. If you want to flash another kernel, flash the zImage and push the wlan ko. Please use at your own risk (but, no this will not brick your phone).
Known Issues:
You might encounter FCs if you use NexTheme Goodies add-on.

That strange. It works fine for me when I take pictures. Hopefully someone can help you with that issue. :S
Btw, thanks Craig I'm so glad that I can use the desire cam again ^^ I miss it so much ~~~
Reflashed the Kernal update and it works now...I had been using CameraZoom, but think I'm going to uninstall it now as I never really used the plugins.
Thanks!
It works Thank You
Um nevermind... I take back what I said about the fact that it's working properly... it actually isn't.
The camera occasionally closes on me. Sometimes it also restarted my phone when I try to open it too.
Why there is a need to install it together with boot image ? Isn't it just a regular system application with additional libraries ?
If this is a case, is it possible to remove the boot image from the package - this way it can be used by anyone who want to run a different kernel and it won't be any need to reflash the kernel after installing this?

Try Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik-Cache and Reset Battery stats and then flash this Camera\Kernel mod
Or try separately flash Kernel and then flash Camera\Kernel mod... I was the flashing of a kernel before flash this mod and no doing Wipe

That's what I did ^^;
You should probably mention that by using this, one also overwrites the current kernel.. No good if you use another kernel that the one supplied with this .zip.
Nice work!
Is there a way to change the default names of the pic?
"date_time.jpg" would be nice so they are ordered correctly in gallery..

Actually, this has changes in init.rc (to initialise the htc framework) which can only be changed by flashing the boot image. So no, there's no way to get it working without flashing the boot
Update to the universal overclock. I've tested it working on several ROMS... seems to be better than my first one. Based off dumfuq's latest OC kernel for CM5 which is based off the latest cyanogenmod. Instructions are the same as below. Let's set some G1s on fire!
EDIT WIFI FIXED NOW
UNIVERSAL OVERCLOCK VERSION 2.01 WIFI FIXED
This can be flashed right over what you have now
EDIT IT DOES WORK ON 1.5-1.6 ROMS !!!!!
Below you'll find a link to an overclock update.zip ... all you have to do is flash it, regardless of your ROM and use set cpu to tweak your settings. It will allow you to clock the CPU up to 825mhz!!! Anything over 768mhz locks up the phone so you may want to set a max value via userinit.sh. 652mhz seems to be stable for me
WARNING: Overclocking can shorten battery life and kill the PROC on your phone. I'm in no way responsible for your phone getting hotter than the sun and exploding.
NANDROID BEFORE FLASHING THIS
I'm not a DEV... i just like to tinker. All I did was notice this and throw it all together--------CREDIT GOES TO Dumfuq, Koush and Pershoot for making this possible
Instructions:
----------------------
INSTRUCTIONS HAVE BEEN CHANGED
*Download and install setcpu.
*Select auto detect (ensure it is set at 528mhz) make sure "set on boot" and "ondemand" are selected
*Download and flash THIS update.zip up to 652mhz Stable or this stable 576mhz overclock from Pershoot from recovery and reboot
*Go back into setcpu... hit "menu" and select autodetect again ...you'll notice you now have frequencies for up to 825mhz
*Configure min and max frequency to your liking (652mhz seems to be best for me) (you may want to set a sleep profile of 245min/245max since you won't need OC while you aren't using the device)
*Enjoy

What ROM are you flashing this on top of?
Agreed, the zip isn't signed correctly. Here's a working version.
Might want to thank Koush and Pershoot for the kernel script too.
This sounds awesome, it could make many sense roms much more usable as a daily!! Will flash and test later tonight when I get home from work. Thanks!

Sorry for the confusion I did not sign the zip properly. SHOULD BE WORKING NOW.
Would you be willing to talk about how this works and how it can work on any Rom. I would be interested in knowing that.

Uses Anykernel.zip created by Koush
updater-script runs and extract the boot.img from your current ROM.
It unpacks the boot.img into kernel and ramdisk.
It repacks newboot.img with the new kernel and the same ramdisk.
It flashes the newly created boot image.
I got the source HERE

So if I'm reading this right, your using koush's anykernal method (which pershoot uses on his kernals) with dumfuq's patch. Good ****.
You might want to let people that dumfuqs kernal defaults to 8xx at boot, so a lot of people won't boot if they don't set default boot after flashing. This can be done with userinit.sh or in /system/banner or something like that if u don't have an ext partation w/userinit.sh. its explaind how to push the line in other theard. Id copy and paste here, but I'm driving right now, lol.
You also might want to give pershoot xtra kernal a shot also. It maxes at 576, but also has other optimasations included and if stable on all g1's.

Thanks for the heads up. I've edited the instructions to install set cpu first so when they flash the update it will still boot up at 528 and they can change accordingly
Can we use an alternative other than SetCPU?

I'm pretty sure you can set the max speed via userinit.sh.... something like
"#!/system/bin/sh
echo 633600 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq"
in other news i just got this to work on a 1.5 sense ROM!!!!!!
Thanks, I'm about to test this out
Thanks bro!
Does anyone know if I can just flash this ota with just my phone? I downloaded the zip ota, and astro shows that it's on my sd card, but when I go to recovery to flash zip, it's not showing up...?
Just impatient to try this cuz it sounds sweet, lol, but I know if I can't do it ota I can do it later tonight at home...

move the file to the root of your sdcard if you downloaded OTA its probably in sdcard/downloads or something
im getting a little confused. what do i need to do before i can install prime 1.5 ??
install clockwork recovery.
just do the NVFlash process. its one click and relatively easy
NVFlash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123429
Prime 1.5: http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/roach2010/flash_roms/prime_v1.5_nvflash.tar.bz2
Not too much work, but you have to spend loads of time.
1. root your TF
2. install recovery Mod
3. flash the Prime! v1.5 rom
Remeber, Google is your fd. Btw, you can find the instructions in XDA TF Dev part.
nvflash method to install prime 1.5 works?????
if i nvflash prime 1.4 i will have cwm? from there i can install 1.5?
ok now that im in 1.4
i follow this to install 1.5
1. Copy ROM to sdcard
2. Verify the MD5 of the zip on the sdcard, DO NOT FLASH IF THIS DOESN'T MATCH THE MD5 UNDER THE DOWNLOAD LINK!
3. Boot into clockworkmod recovery
4. Take a nandroid backup (optional but highly recommended)
5. Install the ROM
6. Reboot and wait... The first boot may take a while...
7. After a successful restart, you can change one of the power mod or remove it if desired.
1.i copy prime_v1.5.zip into sdcard??
2. in recovery mode, install from zip? it show only update.zip??
so i install from update.zip??? or what? i cant see prime_v1.5.zip
can prime 1.5 overclock?

No. Seperate ROM for that. Install Prime 1.5 then install Clemsyn ROM. Follow instructions to the letter.

What? A ROM has nothing to do with overclocking.
Overclocking is strictly based on the kernel. Some ROMs may provide you with a kernel alongside with the ROM with OC support on it.
But for the most part, overclocking are strictly based off kernels and is standalone.

Select install .zip from SDcard.
Navigate to the file (Prime 1.5.zip) and just select it.
I can't get Imoseyon's kernel to work with the 2.3.6 leak. Every time I flash it, I go to CWM, I mount system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, and install the .zip. When I boot up, it shows 2.6.35.7-EP4 in about phone, which I think is stock. My overclock app shows 1.0GHz max and no smartass governor. How do I get it to work?
EDIT: I had no problems with the froyo leankernel, EP1W, or EP3HA kernels.
given that its only a hacked kernel and not official, that looks like what it should show.. if you're rooted it works, also you can check in root explorer by opening up the text file called 'kernel version'
also it may not be overclockable, even the EP3H one wasn't but I guess everyone figured out you could *force* overclock it with tegrak (and I wouldn't recommend doing that with any kernel)

I was running Cromi 4.7 and upgraded to 5.3 today. I also switched over to Hund's 3.4 kernel.
Now, when I change the power setting to performance or eco, the tablet freezes and then restarts (in Balanced mode).
The options I picked during the install process are-
US hunds with experimental tweaks
Software rendering disabled
GPU OC
CPU OV
GPU UV
I can't figure out if I messed something up during the install or if I need to play with the settings in Hunds app. Any ideas?

If you are using Hund v3.4.3 ET with the ET build.prop, you should NOT install the GPU OC, CPU OV, and GPU UV because the ET is already UV/OC for the kernel. Can you tell me what you have in your init folder? You can go here and find it: "/system/ect/init". It is a easy fix that I believe... One more question, did you do a clean installation with a data format?
Thanks,
LMK

Thanks so much for helping me out with this.
I misunderstood the relationship between the kernel and the ROM. I thought the kernel made those options possible, but that I still needed to select them. So, simply using Hund v 3.4.3 ET enables these options automatically.
The init.d folder has the following files in it: 50CleanTWEAKS, 70B2R, 80Fsync, 89OV, 90 UV, 91GPUUV, and 99hundsapp.
Before I flashed the ROM I did a factory reset with TWRP.

I think that your problem is that you under voltage too much which causes the kernel running unstable... So you could try this to see if you can fix your issues...
First, you may want to do a nandroid back from TWRP. Just in case you want to go back to your original state...
Second, delete these files from your init folder: "89OV, 90 UV, 91GPUUV".
Third, reboot your device and see if it is still rebooting when switching to performance mode....Good luck...:fingers-crossed:
Please report back what is happening when you delete those files, thanks..
