Hello
I have installed Eagles blood ICS 4.0.4 but after that I feel performance is very slow and battery discharges fast.
pls can anybody help me to improve performance.?
What was your flashing procedures? Did you do a FULL wipe to include format/system under mounts and storage? Did you flash a kernel with it? Gapps? I use the same ROM and its one of the fastest roms I've used and by far the fastest and smoothest ics for this device

I've actually found that out of all the ICS roms, this discharged battery the least.* Lag does happen, but it comes and goes (welcome to G2X hackfested ICS+ roms)
*Pain-N-Panic, does this rom ever go into an extreme deep sleep for you if left unattended? My main problem was that my alarms wouldn't go off at the right time, they'd only activate after pressing the power button to wake the device up.

Woah, no sir, not at all. That's a serious problem lol. However, I do not use my phone as an alarm so I can't honestly say so. One of the best things about this ICS ROM compared to some of the others is that it comes with a great kernel that can be overclocked and undervolted. I run mine at 1000 max and 216 min and undervolt everything at -50 with SetCPU. With this setting my battery life is on par with stock CM7, which in my opinion has the best battery life of any ROM for this phone. Another little goodie to add to this rom is the Lag free/dalvick fix. It's a build.prop mod that can be executed with script manager. You can find it in the g2x android development forum. However, if you decide to use this mod i recommend adding the scripts to your build.prop manually on your pc or text editor on your phone. I used the build.prop file that came with the mods pre-loaded and it actually slowed down the device a little. When I added them manually, eaglesblood has never ran smoother or been more snappier.
Haha, I wisened up and went back to CM7 and got an alarm clock.
I've seen the build.prop mod, but with CM7, it's not needed
If I do ever need my ICS fix, this would still be my go-to ROM.
Yup, I switch back and forth from cm7 and eagles blood as well. Whenever I need a working video camera is when I flash back to cm7. Wish they could get working video on ics.....damn drivers! Although the lag free fix isn't needed on cm7 it can be used if you wanna try it out. I myself have never tried but plan on doing so whenever I go back to it

I just followed procedure mentioned in the eaglesblood thread for this ROM.I did wipe/format and installation through CWM(but dont know is that a full wipe or have to do something more?) .I guess i flashed kernel as it is different from my previous GB.Also I did flash Gapps mentioned in the forum.
then I run script tune.sh mentioned in the thread for lag free runing using sm manager and keeping 'Run in root' option but no luck it's having lag.battery discharges within 8-10hr.How much your battery last for if you keep wifi,bluetooth options on?

Can you tell me how to and what to put in build.prop manually?
If you're keeping wi-fi AND bluetooth on, continuously, then 8-10 hours of battery life is to be expected. I never use blue tooth and I keep data and/or wifi OFF unless I am using it at the time. Once I finish using the internet for whatever it is that I am doing I shut it off. Instead of giving you a tutorial, I can just post a copy of my build.prop and you can use that instead.

I'm also agree to a--c and have observed same deep sleep issue don't know because of what but sometimes if we keep it unattended it goes on deep sleep. And in that case I have to remove battery,replace and restart.

Are you running stock or custom kernel? Do you have a CPU app? If so, what is your cpu clocked at (both min at max)?

Thank you pain-n-panic.I just have to copy this build prop file and paste it in the folder where the previous build prop is,right? or their is another technique for that to do?
and about cpu it's clocked at 216Mhz-1.41 Ghz..kernel is 3.034-egb_p999-5 so my guess is it's came with EGB rom.
Call Audio
Does the call audio work in this ROM?

Yes, I like to use Root Explorer to navigate around my system files and folders. All you have to do is drop the build.prop into your system folder and hit yes when it asks you to replace the existing build.prop file. MAKE SURE that you read the directions in the thread and that you set the permissions correctly on the modded build.prop file. I do not recall what they had me set the permissions to but that is very important for you to set the permissions correctly on the modded build.prop before dropping into your system folder.
I figured that was the case....your CPU is maxed out at 1408. This is why your battery life is weak. Drop is down! 1015 mhz max WITH undervolting I still get smooth performance and great battery life. There is an awesome tutorial I read posted somewhere in the g2x forum about how to properly undervolt your device. Its a pain in the butt when you're in the process but so worth it in the end. Try searching it and giving it a try if battery life is a main concern for you.
YES call audio works on this ROM!

Yup. I like 4.0.4 much better than 4.0.3. I used 4.0.3 for about 20 minutes and flashed back to 4.0.4, never even made a phone call so I can't honestly say how calling works on that ROM. I use 4.0.4 as my daily driver and calling works just fine.

Nope. Video recording/playback is broken on every ics/hackfest for our device. We don't have the proper drivers

This kernel module allows you to run any stock HTC Froyo kernel with lowered CPU voltages. Reducing voltage decreases power consumption by the CPU, thus lowering heat and increasing battery life.
INSTALL:
You need root or an unrestricted recovery image (e.g ClockworkMod) to install this. The default settings decrease voltage by 75-100 mV which seems stable on my device (HTC Desire) and is reported to be fine on the EVO. Just download the attached file and select it from recovery or ROM Manager.
I've built "update.zip" files for the EVO 4G with Linux kernel versions 2.6.32.15-g746f4f0, 2.6.32.15-ge2fb08e, and 2.6.32.15-g59b9e50. You can check your kernel version in Settings->About phone->Software information.
Other HTC devices running Froyo are supported. If you have a different device, please give me the full version number and I can add an update.zip for it.
Full details and source are in the original thread in the Desire forum:
[KERNEL] Undervolt driver for the stock HTC kernel for Desire and others (2.6.32.15)
Update, 2010-11-22: Added driver for 2.6.32.15-ge2fb08e.
Update, 2010-11-23: Added driver for 2.6.32.15-g59b9e50.

Maybe not. I run the netarchy kernel but don't OC because it seems to crash at random times. I use it because the battery life is better than stock.
I'll revert to a clean back-up and give this a try just for giggles.
I would like to see some results.
I say that because I have tried a few havs roms and get worse battery life.
I think what a lot of people don't realize unless they are heavily into overocking is that microadjustments just dont have much effect there needs to be some substantial drops to really have any effect on battery and heat.
I realize that this is no desktop or laptop cpu, and that this cpu is based off such low voltages but such minor voltage adjustments, 80-100mv just arent going to have the desired effect unless that equates to a "substantial" voltage drop.
Not to mention the fact that most of you are going to overclock your phone without the faintest idea that doing so, even with a lower cpu voltage, will still cause worse battery life. This is a fact.. to argue it is futile. Its the nature of the beast.. do some reading and find out for yourself.
You can overcome some things by using on demand overclocking but you have to do extensive testing to find the sweet spot.

Nice work. I'm not interested in oc'ing, nor flashing a custom kernel. I may give this a go after a few others check in w/ results. I just want to know that it's stable.
I went to your other thread and saw the source. Clever solution, nice work. I really do like that you wrote a device to /proc that does a little more than report the frequencies back. This will make it very easy to write some scripts, or even a UI, that lets me tweak the settings. Hopefully I have some time to work on that in the upcoming weekends.
Will take a look at this first chance I get. Trying to finish my battery logger since everything available now doesn't log exactly what I want to know. Kudos.
Does this make HAVS obsolete ?

No stability issues and it seems to help on battery a little bit but I really can't tell a big deference. I was expecting for it to help out more. Thanks anyways OP for the share
i did say those little microvoltages aint gunna make any difference.
plus if you try to overclock you just cancelled any lowered voltages and actually cause higher power draw than stock mhz at stock voltages.
higher mhz equals higher power draw whether you have it undervolted or not.
you have to make a signifigant drop in voltage to make any difference at all. let alone if you try and overclock.
not trying to dog the guy who discovered this i am just sing plain and simple math, heat, and electronic voltages.

This isn't a kernel its just a couple of files that go with the kernel. One file for initial boot ect/initd and a .ko file that goes in system/lib/module folder.
I have an Evo, [email protected] #11. I would like to try it. Please build an update.zip to support it.

I've had my NS for over 2 months now - love it. Since I bought it, I've been running completely stock android 2.3.3
Like most on this forum, I like to tweak settings and make improvements.
I just want to know if that if I were to root and load CM7 rom on the NS would it improve the speed/battery? (they are the most important factors to me)
Yes it would improve your battery life. Especially when you flash a custom kernel. With this combination, I currently get 24 hours+ with maybe ~30% remaining.
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/about/features are some of the highlights of the features.
Some benefits on top of my head:
Flashing custom kernel (I suggest you do, its easy)
- Voodoo Sound (Better sound quality, you'd be amazed)
- Voodoo Color (Don't like 2.3.3 colors? Change it back to <2.3.3)
- Overclock (If you're into that) or Underclock
- CFS or BFS
Kernel.. i'd go with Netarchy's 1.2.8 CFS
CM7 Benefits
- Widget Folders (When you add a widget, no more 5 widgets showing Beautiful Widgets.. instead its in a folder; better organization)
- Power Widgets (Notification Pulldown)
- If you use your NS as a music player, it adds a lot of features such as lock screen controls. Using volume rocker to adjust volume while phone screen not on.
- Custom Boot Screens
- Sync with Facebook
Rest are here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=CyanogenMod_Settings
Thanks for your tips. Before I had my NS I had modded my Hero beyond belief!
Would it be easy to send the phone back to a stock ROM and stock kernel? Lets say I had to send the phone back to Samsung to get warranty repaired.
Following on to that question, which is the best way to root?
How's the stability of CM7 on the NS. I just upgraded from my G1 to the NS yesterday, and I was thinking of just running stock until CM7 goes final.

Yes all you have to do is download a nandroid backup of 2.3.3 or whatever that is stock unrooted. And thats it.
Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895545
@Apre: It's stable. The latest nightly (#19) is more stable than RC2 itself. And dang G1 lol, I upgraded from a G1 last year in Juneish. Looking back on that phone now, the screens so small.
I have CM7 RC2 and i find that my battery drains faster. How do I flash Netarchy kernel?
Put it in SD and update it? or do I do it the ADB way by putting the kernel in the tools folder and with command prompt?
I ran stock for quite awhile after buying this phone because I didn't see any need for custom ROMs with vanilla Android. But I finally decided to give it a shot, and I'd never go back. Vanilla is great, but CM7 and all the other Custom Roms for the Nexus S (Axura, Modaco, etc) all bring more great features and customizations. If nothing else, however, I'd at least root and flash a custom kernel with stock - so you can have some overclock goodness
Edit: In specific reference to your post's questions, I run Axura, and I get both better battery life AND what seems to be a snappier phone (Axura has Netarchy 1.2.5 kernel baked right in). On CM7 I didn't notice much of a speed boost, and I think my battery life might have actually been a little worse, but CM7 packs in a lot of extra features. So it all comes down to preference.

I was so happy with my stock NS that I'd not bothered with CM (my ROM of choice on Nexus 1) until just two days ago. In the first 24 hours I had two issues that I've not had, or at least not seen in a very long time.
First issue - I was at 84% battery after about 4 hours. Put the phone to the side of my desk and 3 hours later it was 100% drained to 0 battery juice. Status graph showed nothing unusual, not long wakelocks, no time without cell signal, screen on only 1.5 hours.
Second issue - 24 hours after install, while listening to a podcast with my long time app for those that's not given crash issues, the playback goes into a constant stutter loop for about 30 seconds, then the phone rebooted.
EDIT: a third issue, happening right as I type this. I'm happily tethered away on my laptop via the NS with CM7, but I just went to check something on the screen and the phone is locked up...won't respond to power button. Screen is black, menu buttons are lit. Still tethering me, though.
Seems there are still some slight issues. I did full wipe/format before installing and am on the stock CM7 kernel still.

It's an update.zip file you flash from CW recovery. I agree CM7 appears to be harder on the battery.

I suppose that you're technically correct that CM mods never go final because they're always improved, but all prior iterations of CM at least got out of BETA/ReleaseCandidate status at some point.
I fully expect that CM7 will eventually see a version that doesn't have a beta, nightly or RC tacked on to the end of it. Then we'll see all the .x releases with their betas/rc, etc.
I was going to hold off on CM7 until it was past RC stage because I feared it would have some issues, despite all the glowing reports, and it does, but not enough for me to go back to stock. Probably time to flash netarchy on top of this.

I haven't even activated latitude . I don't have background data enabled either. Not sure what is killing the battery life in CM7 ..
Also, if you're interested. Check out frank707's "NS Collab" ROM. It's basically CM7 without ADW launcher, which is good if you like using CM7 but miss the stock launcher or just frankly don't like ADW.

I have tried CM7 and felt that its bugs and constant state of upgrading and updating to fix things caused me too many issues for daily use.
I do think that CM7 does perform a bit better than the other ROMS due to it being AOSP based but i feel thats why there are also some of these bugs.
I have been using AXURA by Master and its been flawless for me, the one issue I had with a reboot was due to testing a new overclock, but now I keep it at 1200 max ondemand and it hasn't gave me any issues, The lack of full easy theme support like CM7 is a con but the performance is up there with CM7 and the stability is sooo much better for me, I feel this is because its the Stock 2.3.3 ROM that has been decomplied and tweaked and then compiled again.
Its worth looking at some of the other options as well.
So, after trying out many other roms, I've come to the conclusion that WeaponG2x is the one that works for me. However, I was also wondering if it was stable and smooth because of the stock kernel or is it the rom?
I've been using Weapon for a week and a half now and it runs smoothly, never crashes on me, never have to pull battery, and I did realize that battery was better than the previous roms.
Now I want to know if I should use any other custom kernel(overclocked or not)? The roms runs great, except I noticed that it lags a bit here and there, but not too much. Like when i'm downloading an app, the screen will be still for like 1 milisecond when it's installing. That's probably the trade off for the decent battery life, but I'm not sure.
So what kernel are you guys using with Weapon? Let me know, I've been thinking about using Faux kernel, overclock it to about 1100 with SetCPU. But im worried it'll have a major impact on battery life.
Thanks.

That lag when installing apps is an Android problem, not ROM. I believe Google fixed that in ICS. If it ain't broke no need to fix it is what I believe, so I say just stick with what kernel you already have.
But if you really wanna try something new then try the Dragon Kernel that was repacked by Mr.Apocalypse. Or you can try Faux's. But make sure you try the one that's for the 2.3.3 GB OTA by Faux, not the CM7 version.
Stay with stock kernel. Since no drivers for the kernel were ever released, technically stock is the best aside from the tweaks, but then it becomes a sort of ported kernel.

Stock kernel is good, I think that's the reason my battery life was great. But I'm gonna stay with Dragon and see how things go.
Wooooooo, im rocking faux's kernel repackaged by loterious for faster boot times.

You will get best battery life/stability on your stock weapon kernel. If you want to oc go with faux but prepare for noticible bad battery life.
P.s. try pheonix blood on stock kernel way better imo
Making bad decision's one at a time.

Wise choice. Weapon is a great rom. Back it up and try "new clip". Follow the instructions and give it time to settle. There is a new updated weapon rom coming soon. In new clip you will get fast GPS locks. Fast/quick interface. Very nice. The one quibble is clock placement.

New Clip*
I ran weapon r1 and new clip and you are right both are the bees knees. The gps fix in new clip was an unreal change in fix time as well! Good luck with the weapon!
Making bad decision's one at a time.
I have always used weapons and Faux is the way to go. I use setcpu and I run my processor at 1.552 when the screens on and. 389 when its off and I get over 15 hours per charge with moderate use. Just customize the profiles in setcpu to your liking.
Weapons for life!
What exactly is this "New click"? Is it a new weapon mod?
Anyways I have been using weapon r1 3.0 for about a week now, everything is stable and smooth, however gps isnt exactly the fastest, often it doesnt even lock indoor (which, my old phone does). Takes roughly 15s-1m to get a lock outdoor too. I personally think that is slow.
Other than the gps, i am fairly satisfied with the WeaponG2x_30_R1_1022.

Sorry for the typo. It is "New Clip". New Clip is new revision by Kwes1020. He has taken ownership of the rom now that the original dev no longer has a G2x. GPS is much improved and the entire interface has been tweaked for a smoother faster response. It is flashed over Weapon from CWM. It retains all your settings, apps etc. It is a worthy upgrade. Soon there will be an all new version of Weapon, but for now it is the best solution.Try it, you will like it.
Yep... I've tried about 3 or 4 roms before I came up weapon.... This is definitely the most stable by far. Have no issues with it in about 3 weeks now. Also don't suffer from the SoD anymore either.
Tried CM7 Stable looked nice but had SOD issues on lock
then i used root explorer to flush out the bloat ware and ran that for a few hours and backed it up and installed
weapon_r, only problem seemed to be if i rebooted i had to re install from backup need for speed and the nova demo. or they would crash boot on start. but
just flashed new clip and after reboot no lockup on need for speed or nova!
love this rom.....everything works and lots of options. nice and fast (maybe too fast) i was used to a ginger lol optimums t that i gave to my mom after disablement of data(she can use wi fi) i'm not paying for a data line for her.
I tried out faux's kernel but I don't like it. Either it's the kernel or setcpu's default values, but my phone keeps turning off randomly over night.
How do I go back to weapon's kernel without flashing the whole rom again?

Boot into CWM
Flash Weapon
Flash New Clip (optional)
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Reboot
All settings should be retained. I remember reading somewhere that when you change kernels, you should go into application management and clear data and cache from SetCPU or some of the old settings will be used. Not sure if that's true or not. And actually, maybe that was the original problem for you on faux's kernel. *shrug*
I didn't have SetCPU prior to faux kernel... I wanted to try overclocking and my phone would randomly shut off. So I just left the values at default and it still did it.
Bumping since I have another question.
Every now and then on the home screen, when i try to slide to the next screen, the screen will pan out and show all of my home screens instead. I'm not sure how to change it back without rebooting.
Anyone know what I might have did?

If your using go launcher you can set the swipe up and swipe down on your homescreen to do stuff I disable it cause its annoying.
Edit: On your homescreen (assuming you have go launcher) > preferences > gestures > glide up > select the option 'disable'
Make sure you do the same thing with "glide down" option.

I want to try some custom ROM on my O3D, till now I was always using stock ROM (v21a, b, e) yesterday I noticed no network signal on my phone (v21e) and there was few other things that make me mad and nervious about this phone (I dont use camera a lot but like 5-6 days ago when I want to take picture camera wont start so I have to restart the phone and try again very f...... annoying, today some strange noise is played every few minutes when I try to play some games and I play my games with no sound). As am stuck for now with this so call phone I want to hear your suggestions which custom ROM and kernel is most stable and recomended to use with this phone so I can have have everything working fine and smooth. Really sick and tired of this not so smart phone that needs restart every now and then (for me hardware is OK, but software is soooo messed up) so guys please help me to try something new and good. I never install custom ROM on any android phone so please have hart for me. One really BIG thanks.

Agree...everything runs perfect on Promethuis....currently on V1.3 and its just awesome. Camera shutter is so much faster (and 3d button becomes camera button, boots fast, and everything runs as it should. No GC either.
But you will need V21e baseband and this ROM for no GC.

I did update my phone to v21e so I guess my baseband is also v21e. Will try this ROM and coming back with impressions.

I hear 1.4 is awesome. My phone didn't like it for some reason and had terrible battery drain. Just try it for yourself and if you have problems just use 1.3.

I used the 1.3+ kernel and it worked great for me. I had great battery life and it was really stable. Give it a try and if you don't like it then you can use stock. Maybe you could try 1.4 with the 1.3 kernel and see if that would get rid of the drain. Mix and match is what I would suggest!
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
I am just about to install 1.4. and will first try with stock kernel.Just last night I did full charge and went to sleep,in the morning battery was at 94% and everything was off no wifi,no 3G,no new messages and no alarm.Will test today and check which kernel is working best for me.

Was very happy with 1.3 so haven't tried 1.4. From the logs it is only a few minor tweaks.
Also using v1.3 Promethius Kernel. Battery is quite good. One full day based on moderate usage. Say 1 hour web, 10 mins talk time, 1 hour music, and 20 texts. Generally turn off 3G and Wifi unless required.
Although each battery charge seems to yield different results??? Got barely 3/4 today, based on same usage....a little inconsistent for battery drain.
Will try Thiaiz once the V21e version is complete.
And to clarify...using 1800mAh battery which holds a bit of extra charge than stock battery (1500mAh from memory)

what kind of 1800mAh you use. I also 1800mAh noname one and hold much less than the original.
It is normal to have around 1%/h drain
I also use the Promethuis Rom 1.3 and Kernel 1.3 and looks good. In new Kernel 1.5.3 (beta) there is minimal 100MHz rate with much lower voltage.
It is good to use SetCPU and build profile for the swtiched off display s.t. like CPU-100-300MHz on hotplug governor and SIO I/O sheduler. So your phone will never go to 1000MHz when is off.

Currently use a no name 1800mAh from Ebay...it definitely holds more charge than stock.
Kernel 1.3 has lowest clocking at 196MHz which i think is fine. Max at 1.2.
Over the last 2 days, have had some really bad drain. It coincides with me adding my work email onto the phone....with 3G on, it just seems to bleed charge like crazy. not sure if it is the email sync, or the battery itself.
Also downloaded some new apps, so not quite sure what is driving this decline in battery performance. Will post if i find out.
Imoseyon gave me permission to link his kernel here on XDA. Please thank Imo on here or RootzWiki, and please donate to him if u can.
ICS and JB kernels are available.
v 4.0 is the newest version for TW JB 4.3 ML1 only.
Older versions are available (4.1.2)
Experimental builds are also posted on RW. I personally dont want to link them here since I cannot help if something goes wrong. So keep an eye on the RW thread if you can help in testing.

OK so running this on jelly beans b 4 and it is super fast. Works like a champ! Great work imoseyon. I tried ktoonsez and this way smoother on touchwiz. Like butter baby!

does not work with Taste of Beans 3.5k at all..
color flux
removed boot animation
reboots
battery gets SUPER HOT!
had to do a batt pull, boot into recovery, and go from there.
Ran fine when it first booted...benmark scores were very high...running very smooth...
Then after a reboot things got kinda wonky...
Seemed to be running rather hot...and I seemed to lose the ability to control clock speeds with system tuner...
I could sit in the app and watch the max/min speed change without any input from me...and setting it to 1512/384 manually would only last a matter of seconds...
...after the first reboot...i would set clock speeds...do something like run a quadrant test...go look at clock speeds and max would be at 1900 even though i set it at 1512...if i ran antutu at the end of the test it would come back as 1134mhz inn the system info even though I set it to 1512...
Based on my observations...it seems like the moment you put the CPU under any sort of stress...the clock speeds wig out and you lose the ability to control them...
Edit: I can repeat it every time I run a benchmark...quadrant, antutu, smart bench, whatever...the kernel completely loses the ability to control clock speeds..I noticed a similar problem with the Ziggy kernel that synergy uses...
The only non stock kernel that has worked right is 747...and in its ktweaker app there is a setting to "lock" clock speeds so that other apps can't change them...it specifically says "like benchmark apps." It may be something to look into...
Its a shame because on the initial boot up of this kernel my phone had never felt as smooth or performed as well...

This is due to thermald and is normal behavior. I include a tweaked thermald in my ICS kernel but I don't really like the way i implemented it. I'm going to think of a different way to handle this for my JB kernel.

So it would be "stress" related sorta...but more heat related specifically?...its a bummer because my phone does not like 1900mhz at all...and really starts to heat up/lag at that clock speed...
So if the kernel is going to "reset" all the time I'm gonna have to stick with 747 because its the only one (except stock vzw jb) that sticks no matter what I throw at it
Edit: I will however say...the kernel is completely compatible with Synergy 118...and like I said before...when it initially booted the phone was screaming...and performing better than ever...
So keep up the good work and I'll keep my eye on things...
I didn't run your kernel on ICS...wishing I had tried it out now lol

Sorry to hear Met. My phone has never run so well. I'm not experiencing any heat ups or problems set at 1700mzh. When I I run Vellamo it lists the kernel max at 1900mhz but when I check setCPU its locked at 1700mzh. I ran LK on ICS and it was simply amazing. It was the only thing I missed moving to JB. Plz remember that this kernel is just days old and it will continue to get better with updates from Imo. Keep the reports coming guys, it's the best thing to do to help.
What I've noticed is that neither this kernel or ktoonsez like Android tuner or system tuner. They make the kernel go haywire if using either one. I don't know why. That will b why ur min max doesn't match in k tweaker when u open after reboot. I use set CPU for imoseyons kernel and it works great on EVERY tw new base rom and so far has been the best I've tried and i test extensively. Lol.

Any chance of Call Recorder kernel support Imo? I only ask becaues several of your kernels for other phones I have owned did support it.

I would not use KTweaker with this kernel. I remember reading some where its specific for KT kernel. I have had issues using Android Tuner and system tuner on previoulsy used Rom/Kernels as well. I use SetCPU and it works great, I know its a paid app but its so worth it especially if you plan on using custom kernels. Theres a free setCPU version floating around but that app isnt supported anymore.
V.3 locks my cpu to 1900mhz...so i reverted back to v.2 and all is well. 11180 antutu bench mark @ 1520mhz, 10080 @1900mhz
For the ppl not needing to OC try v.2, u might have better results.
