[Q] Overclocking TF101 with Stock Kernel&Rom - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!

3.2 OC kernel?

I didn't see a clemsyn kernel for 3.2... just the ROM he has. I like Prime and I've heard too many issues with the clemsyn rom so I was wondering if there was an OC kernel out for Prime 1.7.
Thanks
Clemsyn has a 3.2 kernel (use version 1) his version 2 - 4 is for stock rooted or clemsyn rom only

Question for you if you've used Clemsyn's version 1 kernel.
Is it 'pre-overclocked' , or what I'm trying to ask, is does this kernel only boot at >1Ghz? Can it be booted at a stock speed, so I can figure out what my particular TF will do speedwise (with say, setCPU) without having to do a recovery right off?

[Q] XOOM, Got to 3.2.2, looking for advice on overclocking?

Hi,
I know there are instructions on overclocking, but they involve flashing with older files, so I'm a bit scared.
I managed to successfully upgrade my Xoom to 3.2.2 as per the instructions at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242524
(FYI: I also had the WiFi issue, I got around it by first installing the Hammerhead ROM, then going to the 3.2.2 stock ROM - using ClockworkMod 3.2.0.0 R4c and the 1.0 version of the ROM - hope that helps someone else).
So far, I'm all good. Now I'd like to overclock this.
Any advice?
Thank you,
Justin

Download either SETCPU or CPU Master and have at it. Just don't have it set on boot til you are sure the new clock speed is stable.

If you go with the tiamat 2.2 moray rom you will be able to overclock from the custom tiamat settings found in the android settings menu. Along with some other additions the option to overclock is built into the rom with the custom kernel. No need to use a app like setcpu.

Hi,
I tried setcpu, it only allows me to set the CPU up to 1000MHz, so I presume I need to do something to set it higher, like flash a kernel or something?
So is it possible for me to overclock on the stock 3.2.2 ROM, or can I only do it with Moray?
If I flash with Moray, and overclock, can I then flash up to the 3.2.2 stock?
Thanks for the replies,
Justin

Sorry, I assumed you had installed a rom or kernel that could overclock. It's not possible on stock.
Also, with a downloaded governor like I mentioned, you can set profiles to save battery, etc.
Thanks again,
Maybe I should flash the Moray ROM so, I like the 3.2.2 one, but not sure what additional benefits I'm getting with it as its only WiFi, I'll never use 4G.

I just can't understand why the fuss over HC3.2.2. As you say, it's for 4G.
Plus stock anything is just pure boredom-inducing IMHO.
OK, that clinches it - I'm flashing to Moray
Thanks a mill for the advice, saved me hours of messing around,

Hi, whats the story with 3G after installing Hammerhead ROM ? Does 3G work properly? Just wondering about is as you wrote that u have some wifi issues as well...

btw cuz i just rooted the other day wat is the best kernal tht i should use
gnufabo suggests stock but i think blades 2 is the best
With the latest firmware update, all custom kernels have become unstable, including blades. People have reported their TF locking up with custom kernels. The only custom kernel that isn't unstable is clemsyn v21. Unfortunately, there's a battery drain of the dock with this kernel.
For now, until the kernel devs figure out what the hell is going on, the best thing for yout to do is use the stock kernel.

I think blades 2 is OK haven't had problems but I'm just gonna go back to stock ;-)
Using Prime v2.0.6 kernel since Monday and it is stellar. No problems whatsoever. 3300 on Quadrant too!
I've actually been just fine with the Blades 2 kernel... No issues whatsoever - not even any excessive battery drain. OC'd to 1540.

[Q] Best kernel to go with Android Revolution HD 3.2.1?

I'm not terribly good with kernels, and the only thing I understand is that if I have a custom one, I can overclock on SetCPU and do a few other things. I have ARHD 3.2.1 right now, but I don't know how kernels really work.
Sorry if this is a bit of a nooby question, but I am a noob C:
Thank You.
Try TastyMeh (in my signature)
Or Guevors test kernel (dev forum)
Both are similar, have awesome fixes, and oc to 1.7Ghz
You just got to try them out. Every unit is different so what may work for me might not work for you. +1 for guevors. 11b tends to still work best for most people.
Sorry for abusing this thread for a noobish question.
I was on stock ICS, rooted and installed guevor's test13 kernel for a while. Then switched to test15.
Yesterday I downloaded Full Wipe Script and Revolution ROM from dev thread, and used them:
1. Full Wipe
2. Install Revolution
My questions are ...
* Which kernel do I have now?
* Did the ROM installation change the kernel to the one that is included with the ROM?
* Maybe the ROM doesn't include a kernel, so I am still on test15?
BTW, I already checked on system info but I wasn't able to extract any useful info from that. I think that now I am using whatever kernel Revolution includes, but I am not sure.
Thanks in advance.

It will be the stock kernel that comes with the rom. Flash the test kernel again if you want it.

OC'ing the TF700T

Which program is everyone using to OC their TF700T? Which clock is most effective without damaging/stressing the device too hard?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
Bump-a-dump.
Sent from my HTC Rezound
No one has OC'd their Infinity?
Everyone is probably in the development section
Ummm
Clemsyn's kernel here with the 1.8 oc
I haven't dabbled with voltages.
I'm using System Tuner Pro to push the CPU to max.
I just did a stress test under the kernel with no tweaks set.
No overheat and it didn't reboot until system load hit 3.92
I'll call that good for now.

How would I go about using Clemsyn's kernel with CleanROM 2.3? Are there any risks with combining something like Clemsyn's kernel with a custom ROM?
I didn't really want to ask in the development thread because I didn't think it was for question and answers.
Clemsyn and CleanROM work perfectly together. Check out the dev thread for either, and look at the results...

Joe,
If you have flashed CleanROM 2.3 it's important to be on the JellyBean boot-loader.
If you are still on ICS upgrade to JB. (I won't go into rooting, saving root, custom recovery...blah blah)
Once you have Scotts CleanROM flashed and working.
Simply flash Clemsyn's kernel from a custom recovery.
I will say the risk is less than moderate.
I have had a good experience to this point in time.
______________________________________________________________________________________
*Trying to stay simple here so I won't post links and other confusion.
I'm kind of a dummy or "newbster" if you will myself.
Once I got unlocked I was committed to either bricking or learning how to do this.
I made the mistake of installing Scotts ROM then flashed Clemsyn's over an ICS downgrade.
Dismal results there...so I just started from scratch...learned about flashing thru ADB from my windows PC.
I recommend getting to know the ADB (android development bridge) commands.
ADB is just a command prompt...like a DOS window that speaks to Android on a device.
It's certainly possible to crap the tab using it, yet it's an invaluable tool for flashing.
Used hiemanshu's method to gain root after flashing JellyBean .18.
Worked very well once the procedure clicked in my head.
Tons of help here at the development paradise known as XDA...

If you have CleanROM installed.
Simply flash the kernel.
It works in addition to CleanROM.
Clemsyn's is added to Scotts ROM.

Ok. Awesome! Thanks. If it causes problems for my device, does TWRP allow me to unflash (if that is even a thing)?
Sent from my HTC Rezound
I built a flashable zip with the clean ROM stock kernel. I'll send you a copy of you need it, and you can flash it just like you do with Clemsyn's kernel. I doubt you'll need it...
As noted above, you want to be on the JB (10.x) bootloader. Nothing to do with losing root, saving root, accessing recovery, and all that crap, but there's a restriction on the 9.x bootloader that restricts increased voltages, and this restricts the higher clock speeds associated with the increased voltage...
Personally I would make a backup of the tablet without the Kernal just in case then flash the kernal and if for some reason it doesnt work or you dont like it then you can go back to the recovery.
Don't forget to do a backup in TWRP before each step.
I have been renaming my backups ie; B4CL22, B4CL23, B4Clems22 and so on...you get the idea.
I can keep them straight that way.
Backups are very important as I now know.
