Running a Sensation Z710e, Android 4.0.3 Virtuous Inquisition 3.0.0.
I want to overclock and install the custom kernel by SebastianFM to overclock to 1.5ghz but have no idea how to do so. I understand that I have to flash from clockworkmod's recovery menu but don't know what that means. Is anybody able to give a step by step walk through flashing this? PLEASE HELP!
Thanks.
1.) Download the kernel
2.) Copy and paste it onto your SD Card
3.) Boot into recovery (you can do this with the Quick Boot app from the Market)
4.) Select the kernel and flash it
5.) Download No-Frills CPU or SetCpu
6.) Select your speed using the app.
7.) If you get reboots or freezing etc then it means your CPU can't handle the speed
8.) If it can then enjoy.
Im running mine stock and its fast

I attempted to flash the sensation and sensation xe kernel as an update install from zip where I select the long file name from within the root of the SD card. As a result the error message is that the kernel can't be opened and installation gets aborted. Is it possible I picked the wrong kernel or do I have to rename it?

You need to select the zip to install (can't remember the exact works in CWM), not the update.
BEFORE you do anything make sure you do a Nandroid backup of the phone first, just in case **** happens.
Picked wrong install. Got correct one. Installed via zip in recovery of clockwork mod. Works like a charm!

I unrooted my phone click "unroot" using original OCLF thinking i didn't need this app anymore being i rooted the phone using usb and one click root when i flashed the cognition rom. Now i actually unrooted the phone and i uninstalled the original oclf and the new version does not let you root. How do i reroot my device? When i follow steps to reroot it has a red screen when im in reboot menu, i believe it is voodoo lag fix gives me many option but i use the power button to select reboot phone since i do not know what to do. Please help thanks!!
hmmm. You can search for root options on 2.2. You xan asks back everything up and reflash the rom.

how do i reflash if i cant even root my phone tho? when i try to use one click root, the phone goes into boot menu but all letters are red, and talks about voodoo lag fix, i will try again and post all the options that the phone gives
Disable lagfix, select install zip from sd in recovery. You do not need root to flash a rom as long as you have clockwork recovery. The red recovery will work

Mounting to your pc had nothing to do with root

ok obviously i'm still kinda new to this, i somewhat understand what you mean, is there anyway you can give me better directions in steps? I know you are using your phone, thanks for the quick responses. how do you disable lag fix, and the rest of the steps?
Disable lagfix
Boot phone to on
Go to my files app
Look for voodoo folder
Inside voodoo folder create a new folder named disable-lagfix
Reboot, you will hear the voices.
flash rom
Make sure rom is on your sd
Long press power button
Select recovery
Once in recovery select install zip from sd
Then select choose zip or something like that
Find the cognition rom
Select
Select again
It is likely when the rom boots voodoo will still be disabled
To re enable go back to voodoo folder on sd, open, delete disable-lagfix folder, reboot. You will hear the voices

ok i used one click root to force root file that i renamed, it then rebooted phone to a red menu, "clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.3 - voodoo lagfix" options are:
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
install zip from sd card
backup and restore
advanced
voodoo lagfix
go back...
Can i select install zip from sdcard from here, is that what you were meaning?
Also on a different note, i have the xda app how do you get notifications from my post?
The rom works fine, so do i need to flash it again, or is this the method i will need to flash all over again to be able to root?

Ok please make sure the program you used is for 2.2. If so click apply sd card update zip.
I do not receive notifications, when I am bored and watching tv I am pretty much always playing around. If I am helping someone I am mindful to keep an eye out.
Edit. I love swype but sometimes the words it puts in there are crazy

As long as the root method you used is for 2.2 you should not have to reflash

phone works fine and rom is working, I just want the phone to be rooted, how can i do that, maybe i got off subject or didn't mention that the rom works fine just won't let me root the phone.
Your said you did the One click root. Did the program specify for 2.2
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
the root method i download was from a thread with video and instructions on how to flash a rom from 2.1 to a custom froyo rom. so if i get this right, your saying i need a file that roots a 2.2 phone? so i need to find in xda one click root for 2.2 right?
Well thanks for being bored and being helpful.
yes swype does put in the weirdest words sometimes
any idea on a 2.2 rooting file? or search?
my biggest bugs with swype are with the words "want" always come up with wasnt. and a few others but "want" bugs me the most
http://www.multiupload.com/02RXSWORVC
Try this. I found it in a search. It should be a download of an update zip to root froyo.save to sd, select apply update.zip in recovery. Make sure file is named update.zip
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
ok, just want to get this right, copy file to internal sd, rename "update.zip" then reboot phone to menu right? holding volume buttons and power right? then select reinstall packages? or will it prompt me to select update.zip from sd card
ok , to your last post, how to get into recovery to select update.zip?

You should have red voodoo recovery select apply update zip

I had recently installed a custom ROM on my HTC Evo 4G and the only thing i noticed is that my search button has been disabled by the creator of the ROM. according to what I understand I can restore the buttons by "Flashing" a zip file that is related to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702579
Only thing is, I have no idea how to install this umm... "modification" i guess you could call it?
I have the zip on my phone and it asks to open with Rom Manager yet im not so sure that's what needs to be done.
Flash it just like you flashed the ROM..
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I Installed the ROM using flash manager, simple run and go, did the same with the ZIP and it just restarted the phone with no change? :/
I guess it was some odd reboot issue I had going on because all I did was reboot and i was able to select the .zip file from the file update selection screen and it worked fine
I downloaded the update and saved the file to install later on my Sensation. Now, I have lost the icon to install the update. How do I install it manually?
Go to settings, about phone, check for updates and then it should ask you to install.

Again, I already downloaded the update and saved it to the SD to install later. After repowering today, the icon is gone. When I check for updates, it says no update is available as it apparently has set some flag saying I already have the download.
I have the update ZIP file on the SD card. How do I install it is the question. There is no "install file from zip" like there is in CWM.
Go to Astro and rename your download PG58IMG . It should appear as a zip file. Put it in the root of your sd card. Power down and hold the volume rocker down and power button at the same time. It will ask you if you want to update, press volume up and wait for it to finish. Erase the file from the root after you are finished. If you have CWM I'm assuming your rooted. There's like 2 or 3 2.3.4 TMOUS roms you can just flash? that would be tthe easiest way.
Hi,

Do you think the reason was the new Frimware(Hboot)?
You musst look in the Rom.ZIP and Check that there is an Boot.img ... I had the Same Problem because the Rom was for two devices and there was an Kernel folder with two Boot.img for Sensation and EVO 3D. Try to install opensensation this Rom works

I have the same problem with opensensation like the eggyenergy Rom!
Error: can't create new boot.img -.-
Then deinstall bootmanager and install it again.. or maybe your sd card has Not enough space. my phone Rom is the original htc ics with root and it works great on it.

Briefly, a boot loader is the first software program that runs when a computer starts. ...

Here's the fix:
1) Have Bootmanager installed.
2) Reboot into recovery and backup your current ROM.
3) In recovery, wipe your phone.
4) Install the ROM you want to have in boot manager.
5) Boot it once.
6) Reboot in recovery and backup your installed ROM again.
7) Restore your previous ROM using recovery
8) Boot into your ROM and load Boot Manager
9) Find an empty slot, click Manage Slot and click "Restore Nandroid"
10) Pick the ROM you backed up before from /clockworkmod/Backups
Done
It's a PITA, but it's the only way i could install ROM's such as the new Sense 4 ports.
Press Thanks if it helped.
Disable SU logging
I used to have the same problem until i disabled su logging in the phone's rom.

I still get the error, but it says it edited the boot.img > cleaning up > error = wtf??
seems i am missing /data/local/tmp/edit.sh, but it is there in the folder.
any ideas?
looking at the permissions, it seems edit.sh isn't set to exec.
Edit: fix is set install to internal.

You install the Rom first.
By apps, you probably mean Gapps (Google apps).
What you install first of Gapps or Kernel doesnt matter. But Rom comes first offcourse.
No reboots are required in between...
