Yes as long as you read and follow directions.
In the meantime I'll move this to the correct section.

Thanks for the quick answer.. btw how good does 2.1 runs on the mytouch 3g? speed wise is it faster than 1.6?

BenchmarkPi results are about the same. However I was using swap with 1.6 yet it is not wise to use swap on 2.1 (cm 5.0.*).
I think that it's worth the trouble if your coming from stock (boring!)
what are the chances of bricking the phone if this guide is followed?

Is that a rhetorical question?
If you follow the instructions you shouldn't brick your phone and I would say statistically slim.
But lacking all the details about your phone, I'm assuming that you are here in the United States with T-Mobile as your carrier.
The most difficult part is making a goldcard. Once you've done that it's just a matter of flashing the right files in the right order.
ok i did everything and everything seems to be working fine.. i think a bit slower than before.. still getting all my stuff back into it...
Anything u recommend to increase speed??
doesn using your sd card as swap, really increases speed?? i think in order to get swap into the sd card, i need to add a script to phoneprioritizer, also how do i overclock my cpu?
download overclock widget or setcpu

do NOT use swap on CM 5.0.7 or CM 5.0.8! It has been proven to be very unstable. "Swap grave" is how Cyanogen puts it.
is 576 the highest this phone will go stable? (http://bit.ly/aoztrS)

Just curious, as that is why I am not putting the latest FreshToast v1 on my phone - I use the camera every day...
So, are there any overclocked ROMs with the camera?? That would be great!

OK, so I am supposed to read 10,000 pages of random comments about the custom ROMs instead of asking?
I have searched by the way, and found no definitive answer. If it's obvious and you know the answer, why not post "no" or "yes" instead of the wise-ass reply?
And if the answer is not obvious - well, that's why I posed the question.

WOW! That must be new.... there is a search on here?
putting it simply, if there was an overclocked rom with working camera, everyone would copy that and have the same thing. then it would be easy to find one. did you see any roms on the front page with working camera and overclock?
ill hijack this thread...id like to see a stable 2.1 rom with everything working but stripped of sense totally, can it happen?
Only if you run a 1.5 rom.
I released a modified boot.img and wlan.ko that you can patch gumbo 1.5c rom with.
you can find it here http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-roms-hacks/10138-gumbo-1-5c-overclock.html
I made it for my own personal use and just put it out there for anyone who might want it. All I did was apply the patch to the boot.img from gumbo 1.5c tweaker edition then flashed it to my phone. I was already running gumbo 1.5c tweaker edition so it has only been tested to work flashed over that.
It most likely would flash just fine over any 1.5 rom, but it will add gumbos custom low memory killer and a script that modifies the cpu scaling. If you use it you can't use setcpu. The rom already does what setcpu does.
If you do want it, flash at your own risk, and make sure to backup first.
I could release an overclocked 1.5 kernel that does not use gumbo, or is based off another rom if there is any demand for it, but I think with 2.1 around the corner, and so many almost fully functional 2.1 roms out there, the only people that would even be interested are those who can't run a 2.1 rom due to audio loss issues. that is not too many.
I heard the iAndroid 4G was found left in a bar incognito... I want one!

no, it won't happen till htc releases the .29 kernel source. though you could overclock and have it on 1.5 working, i'm pretty sure.

im pretty sure pancake 1.5 is already tweaked with gbhil's custom kernel. you can also use autokiller on extreme mode and make that rom fly!

I compiled the oc patch into a 1.5 boot.img based off of gumbo 1.5c tweaker. Post #9 in this thread!
I am getting similar benchmarks as a OC 2.1 rom w/o JIT.
3.1 MFLOPS on linpack
28-29 fps on neocore not killing any tasks
6535 ms on benchmark Pi.
Stock 1.5 rom was
26 fps with all tasks killed
2.36 MFLOPs linpack
10635 ms benchmark pi
Thanks for the info obelisk, justin and obchaos.
Now, was that so hard? ;-)
For the rest of you, just because the search function does not yield an answer does not mean the answer is not out there, now does it?
I had better not see any of you ever posting a question on here ;-)
In any case, I remember 2.1 did not have the camera working for a while, then someone fixed it, right? So it seems that this is not a crazy question to ask.

i dunno about overclocked ones. you could use autokiller off the market to free up a ton of ram. i know setcpu does not work on 2.1
Wanted to start a thread so we can start tracking successful overclocks and underclocks.
tried setcpu, gave it su permissions, but dont have a setcpu.txt file for applicable speeds. tried to put droid speeds on it, but it somereason refuses to set?

I thought there was a big hullaballoo over the G1 and overclocking and it was discovered that unless there's a kernel-level modification, the overclock widget doesn't actually overclock beyond the max the kernel says it can go(like, it will SAY it's OC'd but will still be running at stock)? Maybe the same kind of hack can be used from the G1 since it's still an ARM11 processor? Sorry about my non-specific rambling, I only have a very rudimentary understanding of this >.>
Perhaps a couple threads on the matter will help. These are threads about the actual kernel modification/hack that allows the OC'ing on the G1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=666850
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679033
FWIW, there's no OC'ing on the Legend yet, and it uses the same processor as our beloved MTS. I'd love to be able to get more out of this device though, hope we see it soon
EDIT: It's also worth mentioning that in the beginning of the G1's life when people were "overclocking" it to 528mhz, it wasn't actually overclocking. It was only that the processor was UNDERclocked by the stock software to 300-something mhz and we were overriding it back up to the intended max speed of the processor, 528mhz. Only recently have people truly started OC'ing it beyond that with these kernel hacks. On the MTS, I appears that it STARTS at 600mhz, which is already the max intended speed of the processor. So if we want more we'll need these kernel hacks. I'm hoping we'll be able to get at least 800mhz and still be stable <3
it took the g1 a good deal of time to have one too right?
If some good developers come soon it should be possible to overclock the kernal maybe try porting from the hero that has many overclocked kernals thanks to behnaam

This is what i was speaking of. It looks like he is already working on it. i'm not a dev but i can tell that this rom in the making is going to come with some yummies.
thanks for the heads up man, I'm no dev either but that sounds awesome. I'm hoping to overclock this bad boy and get him just flying (not that he isn't already). I was searching for the power profile already on the Slide to see if it's possible to just rewrite the current file, but I can't seem to find exactly what I'm lookin for. Guess I'll just wait for a ROM update
The real trick will be to do what we did to the nexus . overclock undervolt

This is probably a stupid question but I was just curious. I know the rooting procedure is nearly identical for both so I thought I would ask.
With my MT3G I would often look through the G1 section for ROMs, wondering if it will be the same way here?

Most of the roms in the magic forum were geared toward 32a anyway, but i don't anticipate that being an issue with mt4g. Let's see what happens.
Please post questions in Q&A section. Thanks
in that case can we go even further to ask if the the kernels for overclocking the g2 will work with the mt4g?..

lol, yup. I overclock the **** out of my mt3g, but that's because it desperately needs it. Just flashed ezterry's 614 kernel the other night, and wow, what an improvement. It's still slow, but not nearly as bad as it was.
Once I have a clean version of Android on the mt4g (CM6 or anything without sense) I can't imagine I'll ever need to overclock.

That's true. When I first OC'd my mt3g to 245-528, it ran much faster and battery life actually improved significantly. Why in the HELL they didn't set it that way from the factory is beyond me.

what i've seen so far are other way round, that is rooting could make you unable to get OTA updates..

this is quite OT, but I was wondering how come DHDs overclocked to 1.5Ghz can achieve 3k+ Quadrant scores but the G2 needs to be OCed to 1.8 or 1.9Ghz to achieve similar scores? The extra RAM of the DHD makes so much difference?
Well its a different processor, not just lower clocked.
I dont know the specs off the top of my head but i would guess it has smaller caches. That does make a difference. I doubt ram comes into it for most of the benchmarks.

are the kernels dangerous.... how can I test/check to see if it is worthwhile.... will they drain the battery even more so? thx
Depending what kernel and what clock speed you set, you should be able to underclock to around 700 +/- mhz and not have any noticeable slow downs.
Just make sure you set a lower speed when your screen is off and you battery will last upwards of 24 hours.

We got a cap on our phones? Didn't know they can throttle us like that. Maybe that's why I got slow speeds all of a sudden.
This is the first I've heard of a data cap as well, care to elaborate?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
well.. I wasn't aware of a cap.. people have used apps like set cpu to overclock their devices, like me, I know that with the current build of aosp there is a thing that allocates a certain amount of RAM to your sc card, but I'd wait til they perfect it as people have been having problems with it, but if you wish to try, make sure you have about a class 6 sd card, sounds like you wouldn't want a slower card than that. I've also read about the compcache RAM usage setting in the performance settings in cmod settings, but am reluctant to use it as there wasn't much information and I'm a relatively cautious person when it comes to this stuff.
