Flash the overclock-able version for CM7 and use SetCPU to change the clocks.

My two cents...and I'm not trying to be an ass. If you don't know the answer to the question your asking I would suggest not doing it at all till you have read abt it. You can literally fry your phones chips if you don't pay attention. Just be cautious dude. Google overclocking CPU and read read read and then read more.

Good Afternoon,
I know this is not the right place but as i'm a new guy I must put it in a place like this.... so the thing is that I have flashed like 3 or 4 times to roms like kyrillos or indroid to make an overclock.. but for some reason i dont understand I'm not able to overclock... can someone tell me the reason behind it
thx before hand
Arkano
P.D: to Overclock i have used frills and setcpu
Hi again,
Its solved i just missed the fugu kernel lols
thx
Hi,
I'm new to rooting and flashing roms but I was able to to install the Sick Sense vx ROM and it is working very well. From the many hours of searching and reading I've done, I understand that I need to install an undervolt kernel as well as overclock kernel.
Any recommendations for...
undervolt kernel that plays nice with Sick Sense ROM?
and OC kernel?
I'm afraid of just flashing anything and bricking my phone. I read in one of the posts that someone thought he might have bricked his phone because of an OC kernel (Silver Needle or something like that) he had installed with Sick Sense vx ROM.
Thanks in advance...
You do not have to install another kernel. The one that is built for the ROM is usually the best. And you can't install 2 kernels...it is one or the other.

I used the Configurator that came with the ROM to try to enable undervolt but it gave me this error...
"your kernel does not support this feature"
But it sounds like others are able to enable to undervolt and unfortunately I don't know how they are able to...
Help?
Thanks...
I'm trying to understand my sensation, it's not the same as my G2 as far as overclocking goes and I'd like to understand why. I have full root and currently have Elegancia 1.4 up and running. With the G2, once I was rooted I could overclock up to 1.5 from the stock 800, but when I try to use setcpu with the sensation it only gives me an underclock option, the highest setting it lets me go to is 1.18
Am I doing something wrong, did I not do something I should have, or am I just stupid? I know benchmark scores don't mean much, but when I can get a higher quadrant score using my old G2 it makes me a little sad that I spent money on the sensation
you need to flash an overclock kernel like the one from faux123

Exactly, or you can also use Bricked Kernel by show-p 1984
Thanks for the quick answers. So if I've read right to change my kernel I just download it to the sd card and flash through recovery? I've tried to understand the differences between the kernels but I still don't really get it, what makes faux different/better/worse than bricked?
idk te differences really... i switch between them but you just boot into recovery and flash just like u would a rom
OK, since this was moved to the "question" section I'll ask a straight up question, what makes the kernels different from each other? I've searched and still didn't find any type of "kernal comparison".
Hi guys,
I've been trying out several kernels for my sensation.
I'm running Insertcoin 3.4.5.
The problem i'm having is: On faux kernel 0.2.7 i'm having freezes during heavy browsing(stock browser) not all the time,not reproducable.
I end up pulling the battery.
I've going trough this forum(and the internet) but i didn't find simulair cases.
Before I installed the kernel I did wipe cache, dalvik and did run kernel reset, as found in the threat.
Could this have something to do with zram? perhaps incombination with insertcoin?
Is zram enabled in 0.2.6? I believe it's not but please correct me if i'm wrong....
I realy hope you guys can help me with this because i really like faux kernel...
Many thanks!
You might have to wait for a new version. I think faux has a 0.2.8 version out so that might help.

Hi,
Faux 028 is HERE
This is a final,so it's good to go.
Check HERE for the full story.
Thanks for the info!
I've tried this one already, but it just doesn't seem to run smooth....
Could that be because im on insertcoin? V0.2.6 seems way faster.... Thats what im using now.
Could anyone tell me the difference between these 2? For as far as i could find out of the changelog, the difference is that zram is not inclueded in v 0.2.6....
Please correct me if im wrong!
I will continue using v0.2.6 as long as it runs my phone as it does now(extremely fast).
However iam currious why v0.2.7 and up don't work so well on my phone....
Any ideas?
Many thanks!

Hi,
The best one is the one that works well for you.
Faux has had huge problems with zram recently.
So,if it ain't broke,don't fix it!
Any way to o/c on ICS? Running this ROM right now, it obviously doesn't have much support for different frequencies. I assume I need a different kernel, but I'm not sure what I can and can't do here since the ICS leak is already a brick waiting to happen in my hands (I have really bad luck with technology)
Of course you can o/c asap you make kernel for yourself that has oc!!!!!

he said he has bad luck with technology, silly!
Anyways, to answer OP's question, no.
must.....resist...urge....to....troll...
no overclock until kernel source becomes available, which may be awhile
