I have searched google for tutorial but nothing found.
Can anybody tell mme step by step what to do to increase my 528MHz?
Is there any tutorial?
And the final question, would overclocking really speed up Hero?
Hej, it is easy. You can download "setcpu" in xda: search it!
By using this app, you can overclock your Hero easily.
But overcloking seems to make the system sluggish...........(it was very smooth before)
I am using Villian 10.0.0.

Thx for the answer. So you don't recomend overcloking with setcpu?
No, something isn't right there, using the OCd kernels with SetCPU or OverclockWidget has improved performance of any ROM in my personal experience. Short guide, start of using values of min 350ish - max 650. Play for 5 mins, if ok, put it max setting up by one notch, play again. When it freezes up on you, you know you've gone one too high. You can also test how low u can set the min to save battery. Then start using the profile functions as well.
Mine runs pukka between 350 - 691, others can get 190 - 760.

I think the kernel has to be modified to allow overclocked frequencies..
I am in the same boat, I have the new official ROM, unmodified apart from root and would like to overclock..
Overclock widget shows 528mhz max, I assume SetCPU would be the same.. Is there an update.zip we can flash to have the stock kernel updated to allow the higher frequencies, but no other modifications?
Thanks in advance.
Yes indeed, they need to have a custom kernel. Are you using a ROM from here?... Most have their own overclocked kernels.
As far as I know you still can not take an update zip from one ROM and apply it to another without modifying it,... but I could be wrong. I was told the ramdisk could be extracted from the ROM your using and putting it into the overclocked kernel you want to use, this when the kernels were being made from source. Find out how to do that by searching for a guide on ROM cooking here on XDA.
However now with the official kernel released it might be possible to do it. Give it a bash. NANDROID FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey guys,
I'm pretty new to tweaking the fascinate, and had some questions regarding flashing different kernels.
1. What kernel should I flash? I'm running superclean 2.9.2 with nitsuj's gingerbread theme. If there's any more information you need to know, just ask!
2. How would I go about flashing the kernel to my phone?
Thanks!

EDIT: HOLY CRAP. I just downloaded the overclocked kernel that sfournie posted below. I thought that simply using superclean made my phone fast, overclocking makes the thing about as snappy as a chihuahua on a caffeine overdose (Recorded ~1600 benchmark stat). The soundfix is awesome, and the colorfix makes everything lose that stupid blue overtone - so that rocks too! I don't know if that kernel down there is posted in a sticky, but if it isn't, then it should be!
If you have superclean 2.9.2 then you have a variety of options. You can flash an overclocked kernel which will make your fascinate more sharp and crisp, (you need setcpu which you can get from market)
To flash your going to download this zip file, move it to your sd card, then boot into recovery mode, then you want to select install zip from sd card, choose the kernel you downloaded and hit install. Should work fine, just make sure you that you use kernels meant for Superclean 2.9.2

aggresively undervolted: (a little safer, more conservative yet very well performing)

For this one make sure you understand if you have voodoo or nonvoodoo
EDIT:
Here is a great compiled list, you want to find the kernels that are touchwiz kernels.

One thing to note: I've noticed that a lot of people recommend Wiping your Cache and your Dalvik Cache after installing a new Kernel.
You'll also want to wipe your bstats if you plan on sticking with a kernel for a while as it might give you more accurate battery %'s. You can do that by downloading a terminal emulator from the market, running it, type "su" and hit enter (a permissions window might pop up here, just click "Allow"), and then type "bstats" and hit the enter key again. This will immediately reboot your phone. After 1 or 2 complete cycles you should notice better battery life and %'s. Note: You should generally only do this when your phone is fully charged.
Question...I follow your directions. I've installed multiple roms on my old moto droid via manual style and rom manager. However, just switched to the fascinate and installed superclean 2.9.2 as well. When I reboot into recovery though, it doesn't give me the option to install from SD. Do I need to flash to a different recovery? Currently it's latest edition of clockwork mod.
You may have installed many roms, but only one rom is active at a time, otherwise the old roms are just files and don't mean anything (I think).
What recovery mode are you running, what does it say cwm number is? It should definitely have the install zip from sd option, use the volume up down and power key and edit key to navigate.
I figured it out. I had to select the apply update.zip to activate the next menu that actually let me chose to browse the SD

I used to run about 900 with just superclean nonvoodoo which was fine with voodoo (stock kernel) it was about 1000 and then with the undervolted kernel it was around 1500, the overclock i have hit 1800. but i chose the undervolted because it is battery efficient and just a little more practicle while not losing much performance.

Its awesome. Now, I have heard that our processor is capable of being boosted to 1.6ghz. Is this true, and if so would it be stable?

Our processor doesn't overclock properly, and the further from 1.0GHz you get, the more "off" it is. People have pushed it to 1.6GHz, but it was found out it wasn't actually running that fast, and anything over 1.1/1.2GHz has had stability issues.
Would there be a reason why my phone will only work with jt's 327_2 kernal none of the others will work even if I do a data wipe they still force close like crazy and if I plug in the phone it just starts restarts its self over and over.

The only thing I can figure out is the rom your using isn't compatible with the kernel look at the link I posted above. Specific kernels are for specific roms other than that they should all work fine. I installed every kernel for superclean rom and they all worked.
What rom are you using?

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:

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?

I would suggest, since you are already running 7.0, check the link Kyrillos ROM v7.1 and update your ROM to v7.1 (its so much better, though optional), post that Flash G3Mod v 1.6 Kernel.
Then using Set CPU you can OC more than 800 Mhz.
Note : Dont forget to read the instructions carefully for Kyrillos 7.1 ROM, G3Mod Kernel and SetCPU.....remember, you do all this at your own risk..check my signature for my stats...

Go to 7.1 link given above, and save the file in your SD Card and rename it as update.zip
Then from CWM recovery, install it and you would have 7.1 (read the link, you got to have 7.0 installed to install 7.1, which u already have)
2ndly as far as OC goes, no one would want to have their cell die..my question is Do you guarantee that OC at 800 Mhz will not make ur phone dead? (just a food for thought, dont make this bug you )
What i normally do is, using SetCPU i OC only while playing game..i normally keep it as 600-1200 MHz, on demand.....after I am done...i set it back to 200-800 Mhz on demand...and I normally play for a couple of hours at stretch...nothing has happened to my phone so far...but at the same time, I know when you run at max speed, you are bound to tire early....decide what you want more

thx for this help !
I'm looking forward to do this update (didn't know it was possible with that zip)
Some Q:
- Will it keep all installs, settings and apps as they are now? (I have K7.0-OC)
- I have G3-1.7 (looking forward to the battery fix), won't it harm this kernel or will of flash the fugumod again? (and do I need to reflash afterwards?)
- I have ext4 with many installs, won't it be damaged after updating?
- I don't have a swap, is it needed? Does it make a difference? (in the g3mod app I've set all to ext4, does this move the swap to ext4? It's 500Mb and half used by now...)
I wouldn't want to ruïn my system now, since it's finally running (not always smooth, dough...)
I suggest using fugumod ultra as that has an OCed bus so games wont lagg.

If its not running smooth, why do you worry about not ruining it, you can try various things on the forum, and you will have finally known, what to keep and what not to!

Dont worry about the quadrant score, its misleading.
You can get a higher quadrant score by some tweaks, but more importantly.
See if your phone is more responsive, much faster, no lags, no freezes. If it is there, quadrant doesnt matter.

Brother, it does not ask for wiping, you have to do it manually...Also Supercharger doesnt work for me however lagfix does, but again I would say more than quadrant score, you should be concerned about the performance of the phone and responsiveness.
