Two most common are "setcpu" and "overclock widget"

You first need to make sure you have a kernel installed that will allow overclocking.

The free version or the paid one? Cause I had the free one and didnt c what the difference was

How do I check if I have kernel installed? Sorry im new to this and someone rooted the phone for me
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

If all your phone is is rooted then you don't have an overclocked kernel. If your new id suggest staying away from the overclocking kernels. Its a known issue that not all vibrants can handle overclocking. If yours can't it will cause you problems.

you have a kernel, your phone wouldnt operate without one. Find a kernel for your device that is set to overclock

So downloading setcpu won't do anything?

Before you do anything to your phone. Go to the general section and read the guide tips stickier. It will save you a ton of headaches.

does the lastest version of Axura install voodoo automatically?
if so, does dat mean i can overclock?

Yes it does install it automatically. But that has nothing to do with overclocking. You have to have a kernel that's capable of that.

Eugene has a few to choose from.

be aware most oc kernel's destroy battery life. I am currently using ttabals dragon oc kernel. I have also tried the Dow kernel. I have experienced a few hard resets.
Setcpu doesnt seem to work correctly for me and it doesnt like setting profiles.
When overclocking anything take it slow and easy.

So which kernel should I get then?

That depends on what kind of ROM you are running. Are you completely stock? Are you on 2.1 or 2.2? You dont want to flash a 2.2 kernel over a 2.1 or 2.1 over a 2.2?

[Q] Wireless tether

Is this supported on CELB froyo with the stock kernal? Or the CFS kernel? I'm on CfS

Should work on either. If its not already in the rom then grab it from the market, but as long as your rooted it should work.

Flash a kernel with BLN support and search for BLN control in market

i flashed bionix v twiz w/ voodoo....does this have bln support? and if not, what good kernels are compatible with bionix v?
i don't really wanna flash a new rom until a stable GB one comes out
bionix doesn't include a bln kernel. keep an eye in the dead horse kernel thread in development. Eugene may have a final version in the next few days

I'm waiting for ttabbal's. Test version 1 is over in team whiskey forums and for testing purposes it's pretty solid. Voodoo ext4/sound/bln/oc/uv/color...ULF seems to cause problems for most.
Haha guys just use eugene new kernel, it has it and works perfectly

Eugene's dead horse kernel then search "blinky" in the market.
I'm kind of noob, how do I flash a kernel, and can I do out without interrupting my framework and apps on my bionix v rom?

Download the kernel, then flash over whatever your using. I flashed over voodoo no problem

I have the original bionix v, not 1.2. Does this matter? And do I flash it through odin? Or can I do it via cwm?

Doesn't matter as far as bionix... Flash through cwm. You can leave voodoo, I did. No problem since

ran into some problems...i flashed both test34 kernel by eugene(supports bln) and the kb1 modem.....lost all my apps, and data wipe.....first, had a boot loop problem, fixed, then came up with no application storage space....just recently fixed it, i think the lagfix interfered with something......but its working now.
and i use bnl control....i actually think that blinky was the problem.

cmenard commented in his Overstock thread that he'll have an update coming soon.
Ttabbal says he'll be bringing it to Dragon, as well. If only someone could make a voodoo sound compatible kernel for Double Rainbow (Gingerbread).
Ohhh nice..soo i mean i would like to have it on 2.3.2 and up..i love the voodoo.sound

Me too, but it will not happen without vibrant 2.3 source, from what I hear.

Have you tried CM7? I have not but I believe it is a GB ROM and there is a kernel with voodoo sound available.
I've not. I stalk the thread, and have seen too many bugs. The data issues and battery life makes it a no-go for me.
Wait I though we already had v5

Looks like that is the only kernel to update so far. Giving it a shot.

it cant OC so no, you could use it to underclock but thats just pointless
the max clock of it is 1GHz
you can use setcpu with the bali 1.2GHz to OC it to 1.2
In my experience with Bali if you setCPU lower than 800 you get constant sleep of death. I dont know if anyone else has that problem i switched to overstock though and it worked fine
