htc sensation 1.83 ghz cpu speed

hi i been trying to get 1.8 ghz speed on my sensation, but couldn't find anything that will show step by step.
right now i have revolutionary hd 3.0.3 rom. with revolutionary hd stock kernal. and in the setcpu i couldn't get more then 568 mhz speeed.
can anyone please explain and point me at the right direction.

most likely you need setcpu to auto detect your overclock...its a setting, click menu and then device selection

1.8 ghz is very unstable and could damage your device

Dont use setcpu.
Its better to leave it "ondemand". Its much safer.

Firstly, if you're on the stock kernel you won't get 1.8GHz - max on stock is 1.2GHz, so you'll need a custom kernel to allow those speeds. For SetCPU, go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All - go to SetCPU and clear data. Then go into SetCPU and select Auto Detect. It should then give you up to 1.2GHz.

You should not need Setcpu if you use Android HD Revolution Rom because the rom come with that overclock on it. Go look yourself. You will need root however.

isn't it right, that the costum kernel just speed up ONE core of the cpu?

Previously that was the case, but Revolution HD 3.0.3 has a script you can flash that applies OC to both cores. Revolution HD 3.0.4 no longer needs the script flashed on top and comes with a custom kernel out of the gate running at the processors true speed of 1.5ghz.

You probably won't be able to clock that high anyway... You'll must likely reboot higher on anything higher than 1786 mhz....

custom ROM + stock kernel = no OC
custom ROM + custom kernel = OC
basically you need to flash custom kernel, mike already posted in his thread for sensation custom kernel.
there is a kernel that support till 2Ghz, but i don't recommend though, your phone gonna be hot and the battery won't last long.
and on-demand governor is the best.

I got up to 1.7Ghz running stable using Android Revolution and an RCmix kernel i think it was. Battery drain was quite bad on that kernel though so switched to the stock Revolution HD kernel running at 1.56GHz, stable and good battery life

[Q] Help with infusion kernel v1.1

Hey, i am running on infused v2.1.0 and i have transfuzion theme. Anyway i tried to flash the kernel and i thought i did it right went to recovery mode then falsh zip from sd watever then reboot consol. i go back to my About Phone and still no infusion 1.1 it says : Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-I1997RUXKG-3-CL366622...

I'm pretty sure that is the Infusion kernel. If you read the rest it should say [email protected] # infusion gb

I'd suggest downloading Voltage Control and seeing what options you have in there. You'll know you installed it correctly if you see speeds up to 1600 in there. Plus it's a good tool if you want to Under Voltage a little bit to help on battery life.

Kernel Version number is 2.6.35.7-1997RUXKG3-CL366622 for infusion 1.1. Your good.

Actually that version string is useless for determining which kernel you're running other than "based on Rogers Gingerbread" - since the proprietary Samsung modules force kernel devs to avoid doing anything that modifies that string. (Modify that string = device will not boot.)
The best way to figure out which kernel you're running are:
1) Featureset. If you have frequencies higher than 1200 MHz you're running Infusion as it's the only overclock kernel there is. If you have netarchy-style voltage control but no overclock, you're likely on my Daily Driver. If you have neither, you're probably on Hellraiser or the stock Infused ROM kernel.
2) Build username/host of the kernel to determine who built it. If you look back through my posts you should find one with a list of a few known user/host combos for various kernel devs.

Thanks for the replies guys! I checked in my voltage control i have the 1600mhz in there but i dont really know how to set them... ive looked around i did something but im not sure if thats the best set up. I sitll do not know if i am running on infusion 1.1 i have infused 2.1 for sure but not sure about the kernel. Anyway thanks for the reply guys the help is much appreciated but IF you can help me figure out this voltage thing it'll be great! Also i have downloaded the tranzfusion theme and i dont really like it is there anyway i can delete it?

If you installed 1.1 and voltage control tells you can OC to 1600 then you have 1.1 installed. People use different setups for the Overclocking. use Cfq as scheduler and Ondemand as governor. make sure you turn on 1600 by hitting the red button next to it if you already havent. dont use more than 5-6 mhz speeds at one time. I use 200 400 800 1200 1600.

Just to the OP...the easiest way to me to flash a kernel is simply by downloading SGS Kernel Flasher, selecting the kernel, and flashing it. It's about as painless as you can get.

Thanks for the replies guys much appreciated !

[Q] Remove CPU Speed Limit in Android 2.2

How to Remove the CPU Speed limit of 600Mhz on Android 2.2, When I use Andoird 2.3 on this Device [Commtiva Z51], I am able to Clock the CPU at ~800Mhz, I want to do this on Android 2.2, I have a rooted Device.

Maybe a CPU Tuner
I am sure you can find a free one on Google Play you should take a look.

What you are referring to is known as overclocking (oc)...in order to overclock, you need a custom kernel, since (mostly) the stock kernel doesnt support oc

[Fyi, Android 2.3 is better than 2.2 in a lot of ways...]

??? What are you trying to tell??
Typed using a small touchscreen

I already have No-frills CPU control from the play store and it works but not over 600Mhz and yes, it is Overclocking (OC), I am running a custom rom, Android 2.3 Roms are available but i am not using those as they drain the battery really fast (even without overclocking). It seams like it is a limitation with Android 2.2 as I have tried other Roms also and they too have the same problem.

No nothing like that...
Oc is kernel dependent...you can make an oc kernel for froyo also...
And if you oc, you will get faster battery drain, and maybe heat issues...

Overclocking
Currently I am using this Rom (Jellybean <link> slinkme.co.cc/jellybean <link> [Added like this as I cant add links now]) , As far as I know this supports overclocking. And also if this kernel does not support Overclocking, Can you give me a OC kernel for Android 2.2.1 (This Rom).

All devices are different, and so is their kernel/rom/etc....you cannot use stuff for my device on yours...
And jellybean is sypposed to be android 4.x/5...and not 2.2.1
Give me a screenshot of the stuff written in about phone...then maybe I can point you to the right direction...
Typed using a small touchscreen

Jellybean is my Rom name, it is Android 2.2.1, I want a Kernel that Supports OC, Do you have one ? Android Jellybean is 4.1.

i think you can use Set CPU. you can find its on google play or appstore.vn/a

the easiest way...ask your rom developer to make a kernel with OC support. you can't compile a kernel for your device and neither me since I don't even know what your device is.

You really should listen to these guys & ease up on the attitude. YOU'RE the one needing help and they really are trying.
What kind of PHONE do you have & ROM are you running? THAT determines the kernel.

Be carefull,
It can damage your device...

[Q] No frills CPU with stock kernel?

Can i use No frills CPU or any other cpu controller with stock rom and kernel?

Yes I believe you can as long as your rooted.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G

Yes, you can. However you won't be able to overclock anything since the stock kernel doesn't support that. You can only change governors and I/O scedulers. If you want to stay on the stock kernel but have the ability to overclock/undervolt, you can try SebastianFM's kernels.

I also tried to overclock my CPU with stock kernel. Is does not work and changing the governors just makes the phone a bit slower for me cause the kernel doesn't really support is. Try senseomaniac rom, has the bricked kernel. I am using now and works great.

You don't have to change ROM to use another kernel . If changing the governors makes your phone slower, you probably tried 'conservative' or 'powersave'.

Yeah I know for only changing kernel, but is much easier to flask complete rom then only kernel, kernels differ and are many for different phone roms made for spicific phone then kernel will work. I had screen off governor set to 1cpu and 192 fq, made the unlock slow

No i was unable to use No frills, i set min to 192Mhz, in the application it says 192Mhz but actually it stays at 384Mhz.

I think he meant stock rom. You need a custom kernel to change the frequencies and voltage, that includes lowering the lowest possible frequency (384 to 192).

Yes, i apologise, min was 384. Didnt pay much attention to the numbers

Overclocking

Hello, i have a quick question
I have installed CleanROM 3.2.1 odexed, and Unters stock Tf300t OC Kernel. I would like to ask how do you guys feel about overclocking your tab? I have installed SetCPU and limited overclocking to 1,5 ghz in performance mode, do you think i could do any damage to the cpu?

I don't think that kernel has overclocking. But I usually do it. Just don't constantly have it set to the Max CPU or it will shorten the CPU life by a lot.

I have mine overclocked up to 1.8 with Clemsyn's and it also turns the GPU up to 650. I personally love the overclock. It goes good with me running Hydro 6.0 with the cranked GPU, I think it's really only good if you have the GPU power to back it up as well. If you want to overclock it higher, check out Clemsyns!

If his CPU is at 1.5 then it's overclocked, stock runs at 1.3

I think that up to 1,6GHz is harmless

Thank you for the replies, i also thought that overclocking to 1.6ghz will do no harm.
Edit: for some reason i can not boot with Clemsyns 1,6 ghz kernel. I used the kernel installer provided by the OP in the cleanrom thread. Any suggestions?

I honestly can't find the stock frequency of the GPU anywhere, but I know its lower than 500!
Also, don't use the kernel installer in the OP of the CleanRom thread. Go into Clemsyn's thread and download the kernel you want to use.

I say over clocking is doable until 1.6ghz. After that, I don't think it'll be great for the CPU

Mine is at 1.8 and it runs perfectly fine, no issues at all. Got any reasoning to think that it's not good for the CPU?

+1 for overclocking. I'm running the modified Unter kernel for the PA ROM and usually keep mine set at 1.6. Everything just seems to run so much smoother with it turned up.
