Can anyone try to make a new kernel for this phone? It would be nice to have more features in a kernel such as more governors, CPU and GPU OC and such.:laugh:

We already have threads dedicated to this. For now, no, we don't have and we won't really have in the close future...

My apologies if this has been answered but I haven't been able to find it ...
I'm running AvaFroyo V7 ROM on my rooted EVO, and installed SetCPU. Things are definitely faster. But it appears SetCPU only allows me to UNDERCLOCK (to save battery life, etc.).
Can SetCPU *not* overclock? What am I missing here ...
Thanks in advance!,
Jon
Overclocking has to be enabled in your kernel before you can set it ine set cpu.
It will allow you to overclock if you are using a custom kernel that is capable of the higher frequencies.

Thanks Steve!
Any recommendations ....?
I personally prefer Netarchy CFS 4.1.9.1 and I overclock to 1.19. King makes good kernels too..

Thanks, much appreciated!
Btw, what kind of clock speeds are you able to attain with those kernels?
-- Jon
Most of Kings and Netarchy's kernels can overclock to 1.26 but some CPUs become unstable at those frequencies. Mine runs real nice and safe at 1.19
Duh, my brain was on auto-pilot, didn't see the 1.19 in your previous post.
Thanks a bunch man!
just curious really as my phone never gets warm or anything running at 768mhz the battery life is also pretty good.
hey,
i don´t think so, because in the worst case your phone will take damage. But this ~770 mhz are about 250 more then before. Im happy with this xDDD
that is true haha, i just dont see it doing much harm if the phone will run stable higher at the same voltage or the tiniest bit higher
No, that's the limit of the MSM7225. (Achieved by adjusting the PLL to its max, any higher will overrun the limits of the chip, and cause it to most likely fail)
i would like to know, if its very bad for the phone, if you let it permanently run with full speed. Ok, if it will get very hot.. thats clear, but is it bad if you have the 77mhz and it is for example in silent mode, or when you listen to some music. Should you ever take some possible speed away, if its not need? (thx)
The hardware life will probably be reduced. By how much, it cannot be said definitively, but, I am pretty sure that by the time the hardware fails because of overclocking, the phone will have been retired long back.
What you are requesting (Dynamically changing speed) is exactly what Speed Governors (Performance, Internative, OnDemand etc) do. If you are on CM7, use Smartass Governor, because it's the "smartest". If not, then use Interactive governor.
i use ginger yoshi... and sometimes it sais that the sd was removed. Could overclock be a reason for this?
I dont think so. I got the same issue once, and formatting the SDCard fixed it.
ok i will try it thanks

I have a sense rom on the wildfire, so I will try Interactive Governor. Do I still need SetCPU in order to use it?

To use overclocking and governers on sense roms, oc kernel and application like setcpu are must. Setcpu has governers too.

Looked at JokerDroid's thread and it says about version 4.2
■ Kernel : nFinity Kernel
■ Build Number : 2.37.415.1
■ CPU Overclock : 710 Mhz

So this means it has an oc kernel?

Yes, it does, and it is overclocked to 710 MHz, by default.
Hi!
I'm looking for a kernel that supports both CPU+GPU over/under-clocking.
And more importantly, I need a tool which also lets me create easily appliable profiles for both clocks.
ATM, I'm using franco.kernel R142, with his tool. It supports profiles, but only for CPU clocks.
Thanks!

Franco's kernel doesn't support GPU overclocking, but I can recommend four that do have GPU and CPU OC/UC.
Community Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260439 CPU to 1.9, GPU to 487

BTW, which kernel have you had the most luck with?
Also, Trickster mod does not seem to have GPU clock speeds in profiles.

Last time I checked the GPU option is available in Franco's kernel updater app. It's in "Frequencies/Voltages"

Yes, I know it is. But...
Caveat emptor :
1. You can only underclock. No overclock.
2. You can't set GPU clocks as part of the Power Profiles.
Any suggestions?

I don't think it's a good idea to overclock the GPU. The adreno 320 GPU is quite efficient and delivers great performance in it's default settings.
May I ask why do you want to over clock it?

Hahaha... Only for novelty purposes, and the heck of it... I haven't noticed lag in anything actually.
In fact, I tried running MC4 and NFS MW at the CPU at 1.1 GHz, with 400 MHz GPU - no lag. 1.5 GHz is overkill, IMO.
Mainly I need underclock. Which franco supports. BUT, I simply need profiles.
I want to set up lower GPU clocks for lower CPU clocks, for just internet browsing and stuff.
And, vice versa for gaming. If not over-clock, just default GPU clock speeds for gaming.
Any ideas/apps?
So I installed Kernel Adiutor to tweak the I/O performance and was kinda curious about the governors and all. I noticed that all 4 cores stay on at ALL times. Is this normal behaviour? Why is there no hotplugging? could it be implemented in a custom kernel?
Coming from a Snapdragon 801 which had quad custom cores, it used to have hotplugging to save battery. Thanks for answering if anyone knows

My only guess here is probably the Developer haven't add support for the new'er Snapdragon chip/s?
Been using Kernel Auditor for awhile and I see sd820 reads as single cluster where should 2 (big-LITTLE) . Well just a thought
ok that makes sense, do you know of a kernel tweaker which is updated to work with the new snapdragons by any chance?
I found an app that works, for anybody who is interested, EX Kernel manager works great with the big.LITTLE cores on the s820, happy tweaking!
I'm currently trying out the Interactive governor tweaks posted around the forums
Hello guys!
Here you may post your benchmark score.
Please mention ROM, kernel, kernel setting, any tweaks(mod), device.
Mine is here-
ROM- RR N 31/01 weekly
Kernel- vegito 5.0
Kernel setting- GPU clock at 550mhz
I/O- bfq
Device- a6020a46
With hyper kernel(unreleased and will not be release soon due to some problem)
GPU clock at 550 mhz
And other is default.
See 3D is quite impressive.
AND ROM is RR N and no other tweaks
Not benchmarked by me
Here are result of extreme kernel
ROM AOKP
30/12 build
3D is good but GPU is over clocked up to 1080mhz.
Guys enable faux fix on vegito kernel it improve 3d a lot. You will feel smoothness.
:good:

Simple GPU algorithm by faux123
Although 3D score not increased but I feel smoothness (I underclocked GPU to stock).
