Overclocking bootlap - Droid X General

Hi, I'm having trouble staying overclocked. The phone will stay overclocked for a short while then it will eventually reboot back to original clock, why?
-z4 rooted, 2.2.
Ps. Ovetclock app by Jrummy

Are you sure that you are setting the frequency at boot? if you want it set at boot then you have to choose the option from the main menu to set at boot.
If you are having frequent reboots though I wouldn't recommend setting that at boot, only set at boot once you have found a stable setting that does not reboot on you or cause other issues (i.e force closes or causing the phone to feel like an oven).

Ty, that was it... just a bit of testing to find the stable OC. 1.2ghz seemed to be just fine. No heat, or boot lap. And also using the free app called D2/DX overclock actually worked best.

Liberated Aria FR007 speed?

Is anyone else having the issue of the FR007 being slow and laggy? When I scroll through all my apps, there is a huge lag. And the sliding of the home screens have some lag in it too. Is it just my aria or something that I did wrong while rooting/flashing? If there's a way to fix this, please tell. I really like FR007, but am thinking about switching back to R012. Thanks in advance.

Simply put, even with the stock kernel, no.

Did you do a full wipe before flashing the new rom
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Yeah. I did a nandroid backup and then wipe data. And then flashed.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
No lags here. May some service or app working in background?
their is some noticeable lag, the stock rom from att is deff faster but isn't nearly as clean ;(
OP, I had the same problem, ended up going back to R012. I was sad.
I was using CM6.1 rc2 until my apps started closing (dolphin browser hd, Rom gripper, etc.) Then I switched to liberated fr007 and haven't had one issue. The only thing that ever gave me a lag was overclocking widget, live wallpaper, and using an alternative home screen (ADW. Launcher, Home++)

Yeah it lags for me. Especially if I use Pandora radio

Try this.
Go to market and get Overclocking Widget.
Put the widget anywhere on your homescreen.
Tap it, grant it SU permissions, you will probably have to tap it again for it to display.
Now on the 2nd slider that says Maximum set it all the way to the right.
Uninstall the widget, whichever method you prefer and the lag problem will probably go away.
* uninstalling the widget makes it where it won't automatically slow your phone down when it hasn't been in use for a while, which means you have to mess with the slider every time you unlock your phone.
** this may also have a negative impact on your battery, but if your like me and charge your phone every night it shouldn't be a problem.

You shouldn't be using an overclocking widget or setcpu with the stock fr rom- it will result in more lag and unpleasantness than you started with. The stock kernel simply doesn't support over or underclocking.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
It doesn't support OVER clocking or UNDER clocking, but setting the processor works just fine--there is no issues, that's what saved my battery life actually & the phone runs great.
There is no need to set the processor with a third party app if you are using the stock kernel. Hell, even cm6.1 defaults to 600 making setCPU optional. I saw on the other thread that you think developers too often blame apps for malfunctions but I think you will find that devs and contributors are just as sick of newbies spreading misinformation and not listening to sound advice and attributing their own folly to wrongly defamed software. If I were anyone reading this thread I would encourage you to be wiser than I and let this, and other new troll threads die before they begin.

until we get a decent kernal that supports OC, you're just messing things.
I just end up running slower and stuttering in many apps.

Q about faux's kernel

With faux's smartass/minmax, etc kernel I will need go run set cpu correct? Im on my rooted stock sensd that ivd removed some of the bloat from.

to overclock, yes you would need to use setCPU. However, I am unsure whether the smartass governor would take effect whether or not you had setCPU to OC with.
Thanks! I'm new to this but figured it would make no sense to install the kernel with no way to actually OC. I like alot of the roms out but I'm happier with the stock setup the way I've modded it. Removed the bloat I know I'll never use, changed the boot ani, battery icon on status bar....etc. Short press google/long press Genius (the way it should be!)
This phone is amazing once rooted!

It sure is also, while setCPU is a paid app, its increased my speed and battery life several hours beyond that of the normal speeds with no profiles set for screen off or battery level. Well worth the buck, in my opinion.
btw, dont forget the thanks button
Hmmm all I get is boot screen locks or loops. With and with out cache/dalvik wipes. Is it a requirement to have set cpu installed prior to flashing this kernel?

And I meant to say if you wanted to try this kernal in my first post, not rom... I bet on the stealers and am still pissed...lol

Lol I figured so!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I dunno if this'll help at all, but I'm on pretty much the exact same setup (rooted, stock, removed bloatware, changed battery in status bar, changed genius button to google search, etc.) and faux123's kernel loaded right up for me, I followed his instructions and came from grankin's kernel.
I have SetCPU but I only use it to OC it a bit, I have max to 1209, no profiles. I'm not sure how much it changes and helps, some days it's really good but today it's been unplugged for 3 hours and it's at 80% with a few texts, about 20 min of internet and 20 min on XDA app.

Having to reboot every day

Does anyone elses galaxy s need rebooting about once a day because after a while launchers reboot when you go to your homescreen and apps always act, like they've been force closed when you go back on then after exiting using the home button?
Also, when I'm using my phone and I get a call it hangs for about 5 seconds before my ringtone comes on. is this normal?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Download and install an apps from market . . Free . . Called 'Fast Reboot' . . It don't actually reboot but close the unnecessary programs within seconds and make the phone much faster . . It works for me. . .
It might be your rom.. What rom are you using? New ones (even stock) somehow feel better than the old ones
I'm on darky's 10.1 and I already have fast reboot but it doesn't help.

Is it just me with this problem then?

Same problem here, I'm on darky 10.1 too. Apps keep acting as mentionned above
I have already flashed the rom again but it doesn't seem to work =/

I'm now on simply honey 3.8 on the dark core kernel with ext4 lagfix active. I get around 1900 on quadrant but it still feels as though I need to reboot every day becausw at some point in the day it starts getting really laggy and slows down.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
install a cache cleaner - runs daily
Mine is on stock JPJV6 and i don't reboot it neither it does itself no matter how many days it's running. I think last time i restarted it after 9 days to clear the battery stats after full charge.
Try a different kernel. Dark core just didn't play nice for me. Also try one of the ram hacks out there (juwes for example) as I found it made things better regarding the home screen.

I've never had these problems on my phone, and from the replies it seems that very few other people have, so it might be caused by your combination of non-
standard software.
Just as a test, try loading GB 2.3.3. on your phone, in it's standard form, and see if you get the same problems, if you do it's a hardware problem, if you don't it's a problem with your choice of Roms.
Best of luck.

Voltage settings with OC

I just loaded the Inintial Contact Rom on my Sprint Tab. I found the voltage control/OC utility and was wondering what settings ya were using. I have searched these forums extensively and have found nothing on what people are using on these tabs. Thanks again

Anybody got a sprint tab with this ROM?

I haven't seen your ROM or Kernel (which is the far more important component when overclocking) so I'm not sure what it's capable of but you can see a couple of people (including me) share settings here.
Overcome can go up to 1.6GHz so I usually leave it on 800-1400 MHz as a general rule, with the same cascading voltage scheme I shared in the link.
Thanks that somewhat of a baseline to go by. This ROM just came out a few weeks ago and i just got the time to load it. I am running a kernel by rodderick. Fastest I can clock to is 1200mhz.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yeah I think that's as fast as that kernel would let you Oc I have the exact same set up.

Overclocking on intial contact
After you move it up to 1200, save the settings. Close the program. then go back in. You should be able to move it higher? I'm pretty sure that's what I did. I flashed initial contact today. I'm keeping mine on 1200 for now... I don't feel like being too risky yet.

[Q] Won't stay over clocked?

Hi
I just flashed lean kernel and gave it a day or two to settle down
I have been trying to over clock it and it just won't stay that way
Every time I restart it just goes back to how it was
What can I do to make it stick
Thanks

If you have more than one dameon control installed they may conflict with each other and revert back to "stock" at start up. Are you using set cpu to overclock? Does your rom have overclocking abilities in settings?
Lastly, did you see an option 'set on boot'
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
According to what you've said, its most likely due to the powerhal. The stock powerhal reverts back to 1.3 GHz after a while no matter what you set it on. Best thing if you want oc is to flash imoseyn's 1.5ghz powerhal found in his rootz thread

Yes its ticked as "Start on Boot"
I'm on stock rom but LeanKernel, I'm trying to overclock with ROM Toolbox PRO but it keeps reverting to 1.3ghz, 1.5ghz is used if I overclock everytime I restart but then reverts when rebooted.

Yeah I think your right here mate, did a little bit of research over last few days and it seems PowerHAL is the culprit.
Could you explain what that PowerHAL is and how it effects overclocking etc?
Im guessing its like the native frequency setting?
Thanks !
