You need a custom ROM or kernel at the least. All the current offerings by Team Tiamat and Team Rogue include the option to overclock.

[Q] Overclocking without new kernel?

Hi. I want to overclock my i5800 but i don't want to install new kernel. I tried CM7 ROM and I liked more the original one.
So... Have any possibility to overclock without install a new kernel? Or... Install a kernel with ONLY a modification to overclock.
Since you are using CM7, you also have a new kernel.
The new kernel was required to make CM7 work.
If you also have Update 1 for Alpha 6 installed, I believe you can Overclock to 100 MhZ.
Dympy.
No. I'm not using CM7, I using a original ROM from samsung again. CM7 has a lot of fails at the moment.
I rooted my phone, so I can install kernels. But I don't want to change all kernel, only I wanted to overclock the CPU. It is possible? There is a kernel with the only change is the overclock?
First, you should flash new kernel ( recommend g3mod v2.2.1 OC). Then, install setcpu for OC. And link to download g3mod:
Code:
g3mod.com/g3rm/index.php?about=none
Yes, I know that if I install new kernel like g3mod I can overlock, the question is about don't change the original kernel....
Or the possibility to modify the original samsung kernel to ONLY open the possibility to overclock.
as far as my knowledge u wont OC ur process without install the kernel which supports over-clock...
You are saying that you want to drive a car at 400kmph but you don't wanna drive a veyron, and that's impossible
To overclock, you need to make some changes in the kernel, although it is possible to have a kernel with nothing more but overclocking, but why don't you use fugumod or g3mod.
I tried the CM7 ROM. And I don't liked the menus, the aspect, and the power button functions. I like how is from samsung, only I want more speed on CPU
I'm looking for the same solution! I like the original Samsung ROM, but I really want to overlock the CPU! I used Kyrillos' ROM v9.4, but I was not satisfied with it, so I've reinstalled the original ROM.
So pros, please give us a solution!

Flash a oc kernel with odin and keep your stock rom
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda premium
on my test mobile I have installed the XXJPU stock ROM
flashed the G3 performance 1.9 kernel, works perfect
by default the kernel runs at 800MHz
install setcpu (root required) and you can adjust the cpu
so in two words:
stock ROM with stock kernel -> no cpu adjustment possible
stock ROM with other kernel -> set your cpu in a range you like

To overclock successfully you have to first flash Cyanogen (I recommend 7.2)
after that you can flash the OC kernel

[Q] Custom(uv/oc) Kernel for 4.0.4 P-5110 stock rom ?

Hi all,
Anyone can post a Link for 5110 CUSTOM Kernel with UV/OC compatible stock rom 4.0.4 ?
Great thx :good:
The only kernel i know is Johnsel oc kernel and it is for cm10 and no undervolting
I think does not exist yet
Sent from Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Tab2
Kernel's have and use SmartReflex, so undervolting is pointless to have as the system does it by itself.

Unless you don't want SmartReflex jacking up your extra OPP's you've added for additional clock speeds.... But on a stock kernel or one with only one extra freq, your exactly right.
well
I understand for undervolting ...
And overclocking is possible on stock 4.0.4 rom?
It's a shame there is not more custom kernel ...
Up !?

[Q]which kernel

Hello frends i am new to htc explore(not new to android).i am using stock indian rom with default kernel.i already rooted my rom.i want a kernel which work in stock rom and have NO bug and support ext partition and overclockable to more than 600mhz.thanks guys.
Welcome, there is no such kernel, mostly they are only 3 kernels for explorer, non of them works fine on stock rom, If you want stock, closest you can do is Ateeq's rom, then to clock it you have to flash yannou's kernel, which has OC but most of the guys sayed that it is fake OC, I think not but....... I'm a noob. So far what I figure out is cranium kernel, whit that you can clock it to 1307 which is fun for a while, but battery is just diyng with full clock. All of them supports ext partition.
Thanks.so cranium kernel work with stock Tom.
I have my doubts, anyway do a backup and try, I'm sure about yannou's and ateeq's they don't work with stock, when I tryed cranium, I've already forgot what stock was, so don't know but nowhere says that it wont, so it's up to you. My doubts are about stock, ti's odexed and that's why I'm not sure will it work corectly.
No kernels work with stock....only on custom roms..

I personally recommend to try CM9, I've installed it yesterday and I can say there wasn't bugs(oh yeah, there was something, when I used phone in USB storage mode(plugged in to computer) Google Play wasn't working properly, it was force closing on the app startup. But this is nothing).
Ok thanks.can you tell me what is the max frequency which our phone can hold without any kernel panic.??

Sorry, exactly now, I'm using default CM9 kernel, so I can't say that.
So default cm9 kernel is not overclockable?i assume that all custom rom have overclockable kernel?

I thought it too, but setCPU shows max clock 600Mhz.

Ok then its not overclockable.i will check.thanks
Oc is not a gud idea..du to hvy battery drain..cm9 with oc is available..but not a stable one...

[Q] Overclocking TF101 with Stock Kernel&Rom

I have a TF101 with stock kernel/rom, with ICS 4.0.3, kernel 2.6.39.4 and compilation 9.2.1.27. I want to overclock the tablet, it it already rooted. How Do I do it? Thanks

Sorry to disappoint you, but you can't. You could overclock with a different kernel on the stock ROM, but if you want to stick with all stock, you're stuck at a stock levels. (Try saying that five times fast!)
--EDIT--
Sorry, I think I misread your post. Here are the instructions for overclocking from a stock install:
1. Flash a recovery. I use TWRP, but ClockworkMod is another common one.
2. Download and flash a kernel. Most ROMs come with their own, and almost all are overclockable. If you want to keep the stock OS, just look for a thread thats says [KERNEL][OC] or something along those lines in the development section.
3. Download SetCPU, NSTools, or something similar from the market. Then adjust to your liking.
4. Enjoy your overclock!

I would recommend using a kernel that is made for overclocking (I believe megatron's kernel is a good one) plus something like SetCPU.
Happy overclocking!
