[Q] How to overclock G2x stock rom 2.3.3

Hi,
i just got rooted my g2x 2.3.3 (stock rom), can anybody help me how to overclock it??
Thanks

You need to flash a kernel that supports overclocking. Check over in the development section for one that's compatible with your rom.

After you flashed the new kernel you have to use something like SetCPU (from the market) to set the processor speed higher. You can set it up to the maximum speed allowed by the kernel you flashed. Just be careful about running it at max speed for too long. This phone is plenty fast at 1GHz so no need to set it too high and risk damaging your phone.

@MisfitX,
how if i want to back to original like before i flash this kernel, what i have to do like uninstall this kernel maybe?
Sorry, i'm new on this.
Thanks

Has anyone posted a flashable zip for the stock GB kernel so if you try this and don't like it you can go back to stock easily? I have searched and cannot find it.

The best way would be to make a backup first, then follow the steps to flash the new kernel.. That way if you don't like it or if you have a problem you can always reboot into recovery and restore that backup..
Side note: its always a good idea when flashing anything to your phone to have a back up plan. Like what you will do if something has a problem or you don't like it.. Backup, backup, backup..
Good luck hope this helps

I tried this but it didn't seem to work. I saw the new kernel version in settings, and in SetCPU it showed 1100 as the speed, but when I went to adjust the slider it maxed out at 1000, not 1500. Did I do something wrong?

When in set cpu ; settings; detect new frequencies. Then try it.

[Q] How to add BLN to latest ICS Kernel

Hello guys
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to edit the kernels from the ICS available roms and simply add the BLN notifications?
I do not want or need all the other tweaks.
I just want BLN added to this, nothing else.
Thank you
EDIT: IS the OTA ICS kernel source known yet?

No one?
Sent from my Htcclay's SuperICS Nexus S using XDA App

have you seen dev section and see thoes ICS kernel ?

Using NSTools you can simply enable or disable the tweaks you want. At least you can on the GB kernels. I'd assume this the case with the ICS kernels that are available, but I haven't tried out ICS honestly.

Yes but those kernel have way too much tweaking for me. I want something simple, as my experience with that sort of kernels has drained my battery more than with a stock kernel (with fresh installs and all the wipes)

Yes but I was looking to implement that on a stock ics kernel. Just BLN, nothing else.

So, there is no one here on the forum that has or knows how to implement BLN in a kernel?!
people only check the android development section...that is sad bud true.

As far as i know BLN does not work with stock kernel neither with NStools nor with any other app.
Stock kernel simply does not support BLN.

People aren't building kernels from thin air,they are using the released source files for the stock ones and tweaking them afterwards. I only want to add bln to those stock releases.

He built an almost stock kernel for GB with BLN, so i'm sure he's already working on it.

Well, technically you could insmod a kernel module in...

that's what I want, to simply add to the ICS kernel source the BLN, nothing else.
I'm just trying to find a way to do it because this is not my area of expertise...
is the source for the latest ICS kernel for nexus S known? for version 3.0.8-gb55e9ac [email protected] #1 ?
tks for all of your tips btw

rooted ICS, but bln ain't working.
the kernel mods aren't there, so as the liblights; the app is not enough.
we have to wait for a modded kernel to use with stock rom.

my problem is that when every kernel is build by some developer, it is released with several mods that I don't want. I simply wan't to pick up the latest ICS kernel source and add the bln libraries and necessary files for it to work. nothing else,nothing less, just that minor tweak.

however no one of these are working with stock OTA ICS 4.0.3 as far as now.
let's see what the future brings..

BLN has been added to the stock cm9 kernel
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,11018

tks, so this means bln has been added to the latest kernel contained in OTA 4.0.3? or that it can now be added to the kernel? sorry man, I'm reading a lot about all of this, but if anything,I think I'm getting more confused...damn...

No, he was stating that Cyanogenmod has added BLN to their kernel. BLN will most likely never be added to stock android. You will have to download a compatible kernel.
---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------
I was bored so here is a kernel that should work for you.
Make sure you Nandroid before install as I'm not responsible for any screwups.
You may have to flash it twice if WiFi doesn't work the first time.
Only tested on i9020t.
I cherry-picked Ezekeel's BLN for this so he deserves credit.

Thank you for your help, I will do a nandroid and flash it. Will give you a feedback soon as I have results.
Btw, This is like stock 4.0.3 ICS but with BLN added? No governors, undervolts and other tweaks, right?
Thanks once again for caring about the subject.

Hello again
Flashed it last night and I believe it is working nicely my friend.thank you very much for helping.
Just for the record, although both, bln app and nstools work, it works better with bln app from the market as it alows enabling bln for missed calls also. With nstools everything was using bln except the missing calls.
Can/should I share your work?

You can but I don't really have any intentions of providing support, hence why I didn't post this in the dev section. It shouldn't need any as it's stock with only bln added so it shouldn't be a problem.

Originally I created this thread to showcase the CM7 and GB kernel lines. The reason I choose this is that I personally have used every kernel i uploaded. And thats the other point, I uploaded/mirrored these specifically as most new members are first time flashing this phone, so most tend to flash CM7/GB ROMs for stability. Alot of this older ROM material is getting buried/harder to find or the links are dead, and the latest has been government seizure of hosting servers.
That being said, if people want this to be a thread containing a collection of all kernels old and current i can change it up. I will need your help as i am a full time college student and work full time as well. Any kernel that you would like listed in the OP, please link me, or if you have it on your PC, PM me and send it as an attachment via email. Any kernel i list i want to upload /mirror that way i know the links are valid, and if for some unseen reason the current service im using for hosting gets caught up in a government seizure, i will be able to move everything to a second site more easily.
As always,open to suggestions and appreciative of your help.

But this feature does not work when the phone is in deep sleep. It mentions this in the faq.
