[Q] How to overclock Sensation ?

Hi guys,
I have a sensation with an official rom ( HTC Europe 1.45.401.2, kernel 2.6.35.13-g3422292, radio 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_m ). I made an update to android 2.3.4 and now it's S off et rooted with revolutionay, cw, busy box.
CPU is scaling on demand beetwen 192/1188mhz , i have cpu master. set cpu does not work with my sensation.
Could somenone tell me how to proceed to overclock my cpu ? what kernel ? and so on ....
thank you very much

You need to have a kernel that supports overclocking. There are a few available in the Development forum.
Though I HIGHLY recommend installing a custom ROM, as the performance difference is huge.

Hi, thanks for your answer, I tried an custum rom but it did not work for me ... maybe i did something wrong
I tiried Revolution HD but i did not succed. I have a few questions about this rom.
Is the kernel already included in the custum rom or do i have to flash it again ?
Does someone know if there is a kernel available pour original rom on 2.3.4 ?
thanks

Hi,
Which Revolution HD ROM did you install?

hi, i tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 . i could not overclock

Have you tried the last of Leedroid with V7 ROM and program Overclock Virtuous? I have it and you can play around with the frequencies and see the stats you get with some Benchmark

Hi,
currently that ROM is using stock kernel.
Therefore it is not overclockable.
look in post 2 for any kernels that will allow o/c.

I don't own a laptop but I am rooted, s-off. Is there anyway for me to overclock without having to connect to a computer and flashing something?

I downloaded a setcpu.txt, for setcpu to find frequencies on my phone, flashed a kernel and I was all set. Had the same problem.

How high can you OC? I flashed a kernel but it only allows me to go up to 1512... and for some reason I'm still getting lowish quadrant scoream.. Between 2200 and 2600.... Any ideas on why?
Sent from my Virtuous Sensation overclocked to 1.512ghz... I know... I know....

Quadrant is bs, as well as every other benchmarking app out there.

antutu benchmark is somewhat legit.. atleast it does not output totally different score at the end... like quadrant.

What are the best kernels to use with Coredroid 2.4 ?

Just flashed Coredroid 2.4 to my Sensation a couple of days ago and it's working great and just wanted to know what Kernels are Compatible with Coredroid 2.4 for the Sensation.

flash Sense 3.5 rom now is the best.

I need to know what kernels will work with COREDRIOD
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

I have tried most of them but not the latest ones. For me the bricked kernels were the best of all of them but I eventually reverted to stock.
Remember to always come from a stock kernel before flashing any of the kernels on coredroid for the best results and avoid boot loops. Nandroids are your best friends!!
Have fun!

I did the same, I was running Bulletproof but now I'm on stock.
Bricked kernel is pretty fast and makes everything smooth.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

I always use bricked. Works with most custom rooms out there. I even changed custom rom that bricked kernel doesn' work.
With coredorid 2.4 I use to have bricked 0.91.
Now I 'm trying latest insertcoin with latest bricked after energy with 0.91.

Why did you guy's go back to the stock what was wrong with the other kernels
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

I'm not sure what their probs were but mine would freeze up (white screen w\ Htc logo). I personally would stay with stock no probs to speak of with it.
I've been running CoreDroid since ver 1.4.

To install the stock kernel do I just download it and flash it?

Are bricked kernels Ics

Can a bricked kernel be used with cm9 night lies.I want to use bricked kernel 3.0-kernel v1.1.I have only used faux kernels.Will this kernel work alright with cm9.

I'm not trying to spam or be a ****.I have been doing R&D all day.I would really appreciate any help. Thanks in advance...
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA

I believe so but you must find a kernel that is compatible with cm9. I do not know which one that is or if there is? Perhaps someone else knows but I would search and check compatibility of kernels before doing anything. Hopefully you will find what your looking for. But please make sure it's compatible first.

Their site is not working from at least a few days. Does any one knows why, is it some kind of region or ISP restriction?

Hi.I use ViperS 1.6.2 ROM with Bricked kernel on my htc sensation. So, could you help me with Governor and I/O scheduler settings? First i install it by default (badass and cfq) and test in antutu and quadrant benchmark. Outputs are about 7500 and 3800 points. Then i install Governor as userspase and I/O scheduler as noop. Outputs are about 8500 and 4300 points. It looks like the second form is better, but what about energy saving because i use this rom no so long ago and cant make a choice?May be you propose an alternative settings!
Thank you and sorry for my english

[ROM][Sense 4.0][FINISHED] OrDroid 9.0.0

I have a question. I love this [[ROM][Sense 4.0][FINISHED] OrDroid 9.0.0 ], but one thing I've notcied is instead of saying 4G up top for the data connection, it says H. Is there any work around for this?
Also, I see people are talking about another ROM that might be better than this. Is this the ROM ViperS 1.1.0 ?
If so, how is it any better?
Thank you

You can flash the sense 4G patch to replace the h.and I have heard by some people that vipers awesome and some have said that they didn't like it.try lighting sense 4. Take care...

Anything else you guys can think of?
