overclocking on the fly without a custom kernel

I found a link explaining how to overclock motorola milestone phone on the fly without any reeboot or flashing a custom overclocked kernel. This information might be useful for overclocking galaxy 3 mobiles and I think this would be a better way of overcloking, since it doesnot require flashing a separate overcloked kernel.

Since our phone is using s5p6442 cpu,there are some slight changes that has to be done. I tried and compared the guide with our froyo kernel source released by samsung.
I found the frequency table for our cpu to be present in
arch/arm/plat-s5p64xx/s5p6442-dvfs.c
But i couldnt find which function manipulates the frequency tables present here,I'm not a developer so I'm posting what i know here, Hoping some developer takes this information and implementes it.

downloading the source codes now....wonder if i can figure out anything~im just a noob

installing the Xboarders56 rom on G2x

im a newb so my bad if ths sound kind of dumb ... but can i install the Xboarders56 tweaked 1.2.2 on my G2x or the gingerbead update V1.0.0 rom if im running on 2.2.2??????????? how and where do u get the right kernels as well..would appreciate the info

You can. Assuming you have CWM on your device (http://bit.ly/r119F8)
Different kernels do different things, for xboarders ROM there are techinally 2 kernels:
1. The one that comes with it when you flash (install) it: the stock gingerbread kernel
2. Faux's kernel; the latest version can be found at his twitter (http://bit.ly/pMb2kz) (if you don't want to dig through his twitter, latest version here http://bit.ly/qccGDt)
Faux's kernel allows overclocking which increases your devices processor speed. You'll want to install an application like setCPU to overclock.

if you do the LG update you will get the new baseband which cant hurt then it is even easier to root and you get improved service I think.

Please help me about Kernel !

sory my bad english.
i have rom 2.3.4 . ( s-off, recovery, root done)
i want file kernel can Power Saving batteri ?
i disconnect wifi, buletooth , GPS, use GSM, but my phone use ~160mAH in standy ! hix

You should Try The Bricked Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256668
But be Carefull and Read Step for Step how to Flash it.
And Next Time you ask Something Plz give more Informations,do you use a Stock Rom?
Mod Rom?
And do you Use a App for Controling Cpu Speed etc?
Maybe you just have the Cpu Speed Set wrong when the Screen is Off

i set cpu low ( 192 ghz) when SCreen is off.
App for controling cpu : Cpu mater / onemand.
Stock rom 2.3.4. sense 3.0 ( remove app not use)
kernel you post :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256668
have OC GPU but i don't want. hix . then i need app to see infomation GPU ?
Please help me ! thank

please ! help me.....

if you want features and pretty good battery life, go with the suggested bricked kernel, although it may still have bugs
if you want everything working perfectly, you control overclock, no gpu overclock (to my knowledge), practically no features, fast, excellent battery life (best if you ask me). go with stock or trinity, i suggest trinity though set them to ondemand
trinity

MT6577 1GHZ overclock to 1,68 - phone crash ofter offten ( prestigio 4500 duo )

How much should i overclock this CPU to not make phone crash (Prestigio 4500)?
circa 1,4 phone works good, but hot, if i overclock to 1,68 or 1,7x phone crash after boot, i use to OC modified kernel from china phones rom (bedove or something like that) ..
Guys, what method to OC is better...
I change voltage etc, but cant make it stable..
thx

Hey brother you should not go over 1.3 ghz. There is mtk6577 processor which run on 1ghz and your is already overclocked to 1.2. Can u please share that kernel you have? I have mtk6577 and would like to try it. Thanks

hi, i dont have now mtk6577 phone pretigio, now i have zopo zp998,and use it..

If your phone is a 1ghz, then OC to 1.5 is max you want to go. There are write ups here on XDA, just search. Going too high starts putting too much of a stain on the system. Under voltage can help, but you just can't be applying settings without knowing what they will actually do. There are write ups on XDA about that as well.
Try disabling your animations and other performance robbing settings and run the phone at 1.3 or 1.4. Other than that, you have some reading ahead of you. And make sure you backup up everything, before you apply settings to boot!!
Hit thanks if I helped.

Overclocking Stock ROM/Kernel

Hello everyone, this is my first topic on XDA after lurking for a while!
Anyways, today my topic is going to be concerning an Android Mini Tablet called the PlayMG. It's a WiFi tablet by a startup that's now gone bankrupt. The actual name of the device (development-wise) was the ACTScom A930. It was supposed to be a small 4 inch tablet like an iPod Touch with Android. You can find various info by googleing the name.
The specs go as stated:
ARM TCC8920 @ 960 MHz
1 GB RAM
4 GB DDR3 Storage
Android 4.0.4 ICS
Geekbench test:
http : //browser.primatelabs . com/geekbench3/356000
(sorry, I'm new so I can't post links until 10 posts)
The device was pretty cheap (around 90 dollars) and since then I've rooted it. I had to use SafeRoot because there is virtually no support anywhere for this device. As you can tell from the specs above, the device is fairly weak. My goal is to overclock the device to run at around 1.10-1.25 Ghz, however I'm stuck on the stock ROM and kernel. And as you can probably guess, there is no one to develop and overclockable Kernel for it. I have a few questions that I would like answered:
I was wondering are there any methods to overclock the stock kernel? Is that pretty much impossible?
Are there any ICS (or any) kernels that might work on this device?
Could I build the Kernel myself?
^Questions regarding this:
-Since the company went bankrupt, I can't really obtain a stock kernel, Could I somehow extract it from the device itself?
-If I were able to get the kernel, where can I go on XDA to guide me to building an overclockable kernel?
Does anyone have any ideas on how to overclock this device? I'm accepting all ideas, good or bad!
Thank you everyone in advance. All responses/knowledge is welcome!

Im also looking forward to this... Have a samsung galaxy star pro... Have compiled stock kernel from source successfully... It works... Nw i need to add oc nd everythung... How shuld i do it??? It is a spreadtrum device...

Anyone?
