Okay.
I have the latest stable CM7 for the NC.
Which overclock kernel can I use with this, and how do I go about doing it?
I've flashed the dalinger's (sorry if I misspelled that!) OC kernel, both the latest and the 52311, but both result in a blank screen after the "read forever" screen.
What do I do to get this working?
For stable CM7, I believe you need the 4/24 kernel.

From here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925451
* 2.6.29 releases are discontinued and no longer supported. They will remain hosted for those that might need them.
* There are separate builds for CM7 and stock 1.2 Froyo
* 2.6.32 CM7 builds currently do not work with the stable CM7 builds until CM7.1. You need to use CM nightlies until 7.1 is released.
* All 2.6.32 kernels require an updated u-boot from B&N 1.2 Froyo. If your Nook has "Read Forever" or a green Cyanogenmod logo on the screen when you boot then you have the latest version. If it says something else then you need to update.

So you're going to need to grab the 2.6.29 kernels, unless you kick up into a nightly. I've honestly found the 107 nightly to be very stable, with Dal's kernel (at 1100 MHz), and it's been my daily driver on SD. Avoid 106 (it doesn't have SU/root).

I don't want to use a nightly, I'll stick with what I know works. I've got no problem using a lesser kernel or whatever, so thanks!
Edit - 4/24 worked! Thanks again!
You may or may not know this, but also after flashing you still need to go into cm settings then into performance to overclock it or mess with any governors.

Im about to install Manual Nooter on my SD card and begin to hack. Assuming everything goes correctly with that.....what ROM should i put on it after?
I hear CM7..now CM7.02 i think is the newest, is supposedly the best and fastest.
I know theres the froyo one as well.
Anyone have any ideas especially if your running one you like, let me know please. Thanks!!

My vote would be for CM7 and the OC kernel. I played around with a bunch of the options and have settled on this as my base.
But it's so easy to try different things I would have to suggest that you try anything that catches your fancy, once you have a good backup of the current base configuration.

The nightly experimental builds are just that, experimental. They may blow up, or not work properly with certain apps, or conflict with the OC kernel. The stable builds are the "officially supported" builds.
What I currently have is a stable 7.02 configuration running with the 4-24 OC kernel and a bunch of installed apps that all work right in this setup. I back it up to my SD card using the"Backup Current ROM" option in ROM Manager (I bought the premium version).
If I update to a nightly I can always go back to that backup if I screw something up. I've only screwed it up that badly once so far

I have everything set up and working correctly (yayayayay!).....but im haveing trouble loading a kernel. Apparently i need an updated CWM on my sd card since i have 3.0.0.5, which is super outdated i think. The 4/24 kernel dowloads and install correctly, but it doesnt affect anything and i can still only OC to 925 through CM7 settings. Soooo im trying to look for the newest CWM so i can dowload and put it on my SD card

You should be able to flash the current version of CWM from the ROM Manager application.
Dalingrin's OC kernel thread states:
"2.6.32 CM7 builds currently do not work with the nightlies or stable builds. You must use a test build from the developers thread."
Is there any other option to get OC above the CM7 settings? Would like to test if overclockable to 1200mhz or even 1100mhz stable.
Thanks!!
Download update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-emmc-052311
That is OC up to 1200. Using N87 as we speak.

This is great news. I also, just now, saw these quotes in another CM7 thread...

This is correct. Don't need to flash u-boot for n86 and on. Just flash the nightly itself, then the 5/23 OC kernel if you want to overclock.

delosh said:
You can just flash the latest nightly right over cm7.0.3, followed by the 5/23 OC kernel if you want to overclock. Did exactly that just today without any problems, and everything is now working wonderfully.

OC'd to 1200Mhz and I am now a super duper happy nooker
Hey guys,
I'm sure this has been addressed SOMEWHERE, but my searches didn't turn up anything (or anything I could decipher, anyway). (0: Where can I find an OC kernel for CM7 emmc 7.0.3?
The new Dalingrin CM7 kernels don't work for 7.0.3, and Idk what date under his kernel listings correspond to the 7.0.3 version. Thanks for all help!

You Really should consider moving over to the latest nightly! So many more options in Overclocking and running Dal's new tweaks app for cpu ramping and audio management. And so many more advances
I was wondering about the overclocking kernal for cm7. just how do i put it in. Do I have to do that when I first install or can I add it later. also does it really help. I mean is the difference really noticeable or not at all. I am still deciding if I should do it or not.
Kernels are flashed through ClockworkMod and can be flash anytime after you flash a rom. If you use the search bar you can easily find what particular kernel works for your setup.
OK, I think I found the right one but I was also wondering if I could install it when I first installed cm7. When I installed it I saw that it was searching for the kernel and for gapps but didn't find the n and skipped it. Could I install it then

CM7 has the ability to be overclocked as it sets.
settings > CM settings > performance > CPU settings.
just be extremely careful when Overclocking devices. it can takes it's toll in the long run.
and the g/apps are not kernel dependent they are ROM dependent.
OK but what do you mean by gapps are not kernal dependant

On *UNIX based devices. They have a section of the firmware called the "kernel". The kernel accepts the coding, binary and scripts from the RAM/ROM and tells the hardware how to act, what to do, and when to do it.
The g/apps have nothing to do with the kernel.
The g/apps are Google's property and cannot be included in AOSP based ROMs. Those ROMs are developed from Google's code. And developers do not have the ability to add those at will. So we must flash them after/prior (depending on he ROM) to get the Google Apps.
YES! DO IT!
for me its like day and night, it so much smoother with dals OC kernel. and yes you can flash the OC kernel any time. you can flash cm7 rc1 then OC kernel in the same boot. or you can first install cm7 to check it out for a while and then later flash the new kernel. if you planning to flash dal's 6/18 kernel, make sure to get his app NC Tweaks.

thanks. What I want to know is how to flash it. do I do it the same way as gapps( have wifi and reboot in recovery mode) or is there a different way?

You place the over clock zip file in the root of your sd card and flash it through cwm like you would a rom or gapps. So for example you would flash cm7 then gapps then the overclock kernel.
Not to Jack this thread, but I want to update from cm7 old kernel to New nightly build. Does the new kernel flash with the nightly?

When you move from stable cm7 to cm7 nightly the new kernel is included. However the included kernel is overclockable only to 975mhz. If you want a higher clock speed you'll have to use dals 6182011 kernel, up to 1200mhz.
whats is cmw?

it's actually CWM.

basically boot into recovery then flash.
OK. but this may be a stupid question but will the cm7 kernal work with the stable version7.0.3 because that is what I have.

I'm not following you cannot use just a Cyanogen(mod) kernel. They are built into their ROMs.

sorry, but no. dal's 6/18 OC kernel will not work with 7.0.3....

Ok thanks anyway. do you know when the kernal will work with a stable version

The latest nightly should be considered stable. It is in release candidate stable for the next stable build. The next stable build should be released in the next couple of days.

There is a Clockwork ROM Manager and a ClockworkMod Recovery image.
Together they are known as "CWM" Since one is a recovery and the other is a ROM manager.
So...I haven't really followed CM7 much, but I see that there is a cm7.1 now. What exactly is that vs the CM7 nightlies? Can I use dalingrin's OC kernel (or any other OC kernel) on CM7.1? Can I even put CM7.1 on my nook (as in will it work on it, not how to do it)? Would I want to put it on, or should I just run nightlies?
thanks in advance for the help...cm7 is a big unknown to me, obviously
For the Nook Color, the current 7.1 release is a RC or Release Candidate which falls between nightly and stable. Several nightlies have now followed, and I believe those nightlies are now also 7.1.
Yes, you can load 7.1RC on the Nook Color and it runs very well; yes you can use Dalingrin's OC kernel, and you can do this all off a uSd which is all what I am doing.
I could only find RC1 (is that the latest anyway) and only 7.0 nightlies. Is there a link to updated 7.1 anywhere?
This weekend I finally wiped my Phiremod 6.3 and installed CM7.1 RC1 and Dalgrin's 6/30/11 kernel. It's been super sweet thus far.
I never cease to be amazed at how great a tablet this is.
I'm confused about how to install the OC kernel on SD. I'll do some searching in the interim, but if you have a link off the top of your head, please share.
Starting to get very intrigued by CM7. The earlier run on what was supposed to be a class 6 sucked compared to a trusty ol' class 4 sandisk...
Actually, I think I get the OC thing (recovery mode, named update, etc). But now I have a different problem. I tried 7.1 and after installing market I can't search for anything. Any time I try any of the search icons or menu, nothing happens. Any thoughts there from anyone?
Now I'm getting confused. Was running RC1 and installed nightly121 over it, clearing dalvik and cache...according to my thinking I've got 2.34 installed with updates from the nightly..correct?

CHeck the version in 'about tablet'. When I did nightly 128, it said it was still cm7.0. Or maybe I read it wrong. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable can answer...
