Hi
I using the original Acer Iconia A500 ROM.
I try to use SetCPU to OC my A500, the max is 1Mhz.
But when I use custom ROM, SetCPU can OC up to 1.6Mhz.
May I know how to set this 1.6Mhz for original Acer ROM??
With stock, are you using the stock kernel, or custom kernel?
You need a custom kernel that allows OC.

And, of course, it is GHz, not MHz

so which kernel will be best for the original rom??
1 more question, stock = original rom from acer??
I used RichardTrip's kernel, you can find it in the dev section... Works great with stock ROM and supports up to 1.64ghz overclock.
And yes, Stock = Original ROM from Acer.

thanks...
I have installed the kernel and now is OC to 1.6ghz...
many thanks.

Note: Just because you CAN go to 1.6, doesn't mean you SHOULD! That's WAY faster than the CPU is rated for so don't be surprised if you get some pretty major issues. I run at 1.4 and find it way more than enough and it stays stable.

+1 on that. I'm at 1.4 and very stable, no problems.

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...
delosh said:
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.

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,
I see a lot of people using CM7 is this really the best one?
Also till how many mhz I can overclock on that one?
Yes Cm7 IS really great, in fact you can customize almost everything, and I really like that feature...
As for overclocking you can overclock I think to max of 768mhz(if I'm wrong somebody please correct me)...maybe you can a little bit more but I think it is kernel related...
Hope it helps,
Best regards

Irrespective of which ROM you choose, it is the kernel which allows (or disallows) you from Overclocking. Till date, there are 2 primary kernels which are available - HCDR.Kernel by Jacob and nFinity by arco, and both OC support upto 768MHz. (I think Deep-Knight has recently developed a new kernel for his ROM, which allows OC upto 600MHz)
Because of this, you can overclock your stock ROM also, if you so wish, by simply flashing a custom kernel.

Hi!
Which kernels can I use for original rom, if I want to overclock? HCDR, or Deep, or what? It will make the phone instable, or not?
Thank You!

You can use any. nFinity MC4 offers more features though, like Smartass Governor. It can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995301
Else, you can use HCDR Kernel also, if you wish, and decide for yourself which suits you:

It shouldn't make the phone unstable at all. But, in any case, make a Nandroid Backup beforehand.
Thank You
Well M using hell fire .. Cm7 based ....
Which is stable till 729 Mhz overclock m using max 729 and min 490 (I guess)
Phone is Much faster than before and love playing angry birds
I read all the 2 posts, but Im not sure to change the original slow kernel, for a faster. All have some bugs, battery life, wifi, etc...
I dont know, which could be better for the stock rom, or which could be better than the original.
Anyway, I want to try one of that, but I dont know which.
How can I flash just the kernel? And also back up my programs with titanium, or mybackup?
It clears everything like the rom flashing?
Ok, I made it, its cool, and faster. Thanks for the help.
is the overclocking "app" in standard cm7? Or i must go to market or anything else to download it?

Its standard, under Settings > Cyanogenmod Settings > Performance Settings.
Can someone do it?
Can't you just put the OC module in the ROM? Isn't it the same?

Why not someone remove BFS ? OC makes your phone scrolling much lag..and not smooth for daily use
Lag

What is the point with BFS? Does it make our phone lag? Does OC make our phone lag / not smooth? If this is the case, why ask for OC?
Anyway, for us to have OC, we can have a module (OC V.004), but we have to recompile module to point to custom kernel, instead of stock, just like wi-fi .ko files. Someone (I think biscoitu) tried to hexedit it, but was not successful. I think we need to recompile module.

Im a big fan of CleanROM, and using untermensch OC Kernel. I've also been playing around with Ultra Fast ROM and using untermensch OC. OC went from 1.6 to 1.7, and its like putting the petal to the metal, even when its running on a modest 1.4 GHz.
Ultra Fast ROM, is a stock ROM, so it has all the bloat, but I went in with a root explorer, and uninstalled all the bloat apps.

Sir, the best rom, kernel or whatever is subjective.Try for your own and decide what suit your needs.

hi guys, i'm currently using NexusHD2 JellyBean rom. it can be overclocked up to 1.2ghz, but i saw on internet that with CM7 hd2 can be overclocked up to 1.5... i would overclock NexusHD2 JellyBean CM10.1 to 1.5ghz.. but i don't know how to... sorry for bad english
You need a kernel that supports overclocking to such frequency. I didn't overclock my HD2, and most times I used the kernel that came with the ROM and didn't bother to change.
Use the sticky in the NAND development section to look through kernels, and flash the one that has overclocking and works on your ROM.
Edit:
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1322639 I think this should work for you, follow the instructions and, as always, make a back up. (Though if something ever happens, you'd just have to flash the stock kernel back but I'm telling you to back up to disclaim myself anything should happen to your device.)

Apparently not, lol. I don't think it's possible then. That's the only kernel I knew which supported 1.5 GHz. Try and search for yourself, you may find.

should I keep jelly beans on 1.2ghz, or should I install ICS on 1.6ghz?
I can't really tell you, because it depends solely on you.
Why not try both? You've tried JB on 1.2, backup and flash ICS with 1.6 and use it for a few days. See which one works best and use it. Good luck.

well, in jellybean or ics, i think overclocking more than 1.2 ghz is very risky. rom developers remove this option aswell as kernel developers, because in those builds it may brick your phone

@Marvlesz well, i'm not sure about what i said
but after gb, i've never seen an ics+ (or jb) build that has overclocking more than 1.2 ghz. gb used to have 1.6ghz AFAIR, but newer build are all 1.2 ghz and maximum. maybe it's related to HWA or such stuff
Edit: i just saw you posted about trying ICS with 1.6 , so nevermind about what i said
