SetCPU Overclocking is here! - HTC EVO 3D

We can overlock our EVO3D phones with SetCPU using our temp root Pretty nice. Have it running at 1.52 right now.

HOT DAMN!

Good news! I'm too tired to be farkin around with adb right now lol

Do you feel a boost in speed?

mine was showing only 1188 when i first installed WTSB rom and it wouldn't let me overclock like it said the included kernel would. So i reinstalled it and now my set cpu tells me max cpu is 1026mhz.
i've uninstalled, rebooted, installed, etc, multiple times with no change.

Dude posted in another obsolete thread to. You need a different kernel. What set cpu says it what you can clock to.

So the kernel that everyone says is fine with the WTSB doesn't work with my phone as the other 3 kernels that everyone says are perfectly fine don't work as well.
so the next guess is what since i've tried 4 kernels so far with the same results?
also, i've been around for a while but never posted so i can't post in the dev forum yet. This isn't my first rooting rodeo but i'm new to the evo 3d. I've never had problems like this on any of the other platforms i've used.

I'm betting he's on hboot 1.5 and thus, isn't actually flashing said kernels lol

Frankly, I don't see the benefit to overclocking anyways... much less putting in as much effort as that guy is to do it...

SetCPU isn't going to take well with a temp root... and you can't over clock without a custom kernel (unless you really want to **** your phone up). Just s-off, root, install CWM via ROM Manager, boot into recovery, flash a custom ROM followed by a custom OC/UC kernel and GAPPS. Also, make sure to set your profiles correctly. Do it right and you'll have amazing battery life AND a phone pushing 2GHz clock speed.

Setcpu has never been friendly with my phone, always ran into some issues, rather it be big or small, system tuner... I have yet to run into an issue that wasn't fixxed by the dev. In an update...

Did all that with custom kernel. Same things i did with my evo 4g without any issues except for all the extra stuff i had to do to get around the hboot 1.5 issues.

[Q] How Safe Is It Flashing Gingerbread?

I'm a little hesitant re-flashing Gingerbread because of the little scare we had, but I hear that now just two people got bricked.
So how many of you are back on Gingerbread?
I am. It has always ran really good for me. I'm using gingivitus IX. The only problem I have with this Rom is that the battery takes forever to charge. No other complaints.

And also what is the correct way to use a different kernel than the one that is in the ROM? I have the ext4 wipe. Not used it. I just clear everything from recovery mode.
Basically what's the correct way to flash a new kernel?
Sorry for the double post.

Its still a different phone. We don't have kernel source as far as I have read and that means no oc. Be patient and stop whining about the sensation having things first.

so is that method the only way to overclock?
I'm having a lot of trouble with set cpu and WTSB ROM on my 2.3.4 with 1.5 hboot. It worked for a while but since i went to WTSB it displays 1026mhz as my cpu speed and that's not even teh speed of stock.
I've reflashed twice now with the same luck.
@jeffbinder ....did you noticed the date of that last post??...as of your issue, does your kernel supports oc? i see you are using hboot 1.5, have you followed the ¨Specific¨ way to flash roms with kernels/kernels for us(hb1.5 users)??? what i mean by that is did you used the Image Flash GUI apk or the fastboot method?? because thats the only way(that i know of) hb1.5 htc unlock users can flash kernels...

I use fastboot on the computer. The rom flashed over fine and everything runs but now my speed just isn't up to stock anymore. It's so weird. The phone acts normal so i'm thinking maybe a bug in set cpu? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing it a few times.
I put it back to stock and everything is fine so i know my flash is good. This isn't my first rodeo with rooting. i do all my friends' devices and i never seem to run into any issues from samsung, motorola or htc until this new evo 3d i just bought. My old evo worked great.
BTW, the last post is only 6 months old. That's not "ancient" in the history of forums by anymeans. It was one of 3 threads in the last year about set cpu.

i wish i was trolling. I've been a member for just shy of a year but no need to post since none of this is all that complicated and i never ran into issues. I didn't have enough posts to reply in the ROM thread but i do now so i posted it to see if someone there might know what's up.
@jeffbinder
Got to SetCPU clear all and uninstall, reboot, install ¨SystemTuner¨, try that app for OC. See if that works better, most roms/kernels have been using a script for OC called OCDaemon(or something like that...am kinda of new to these terms/info).
Edit: Don't multi thread for the same issue, so it is easier to provide you with help.
thanks!
i installed that program, it showed my cpu was set lower so i increased it to 1188mhz then i uninstalled that program and reinstalled set cpu. Now set cpu shows my 1188mhz speed.
I normally don't multipost but after almost a year i didn't have enough posts to post my problem in the dev forums for that ROM. sorry

MIUI already should use both cores I think? Mine seems to at least. Maybe it depends on the kernel you use. I like Chad's AnthraX kernels

Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using XDA Premium App
I might be wrong here, but I think any ROM released for a dual core device is already going to be utilizing both cores.
you can download system tuner and go into the tweaks section. hit the cpu tab, and make sure a bunch is running in the background. then rapidly slide the notification bar up and down really fast. you should see a second cpu bar come up.

OK so you can try this although I can't guarantee that it will work or that MIUI even has a inti.d folder. I'm assuming it does.
1. download attached file
2. rename attached file to "10dualcore" (remove the .txt)
3. copy the file to your phones /system/ect/inti.d folder
4.) reboot
5.) check with system panel (free) see if dual cores in working.
Thats it, see it really wasn't that hard. If it doesn't work then I don't know what to tell ya.
Thanks, it worked

Anthrax setCPU frequency settings won't stick!?!?

Hello I'm new to the 3D threads because I just joined the dual-core club...but I've been rooting and hacking since the Samsung Moment...anyway, I'm running ZR3D[GT] gingerbread ROM v4.1 with the anthrax kernel...I'm using setCPU to overclock the phone to around 1.6Ghz but let alone the settings not sticking after a reboot ALL I HAVE TO DO IS TURN THE SCREEN OFF and when I turn it back on the overclock is gone and it's back down to 1188mhz....I don't know what to do !?!? anyone with a suggestion please don't hesitate to help me out ! thanks in advanced community.
And I tried to disable the perflock and it says it isn't enabled for the kernel

I believe you can't use SetCPU with the Anthrax kernel. I tried it, and it also FC'd and locked up on me. Try using CPU Master.
Try using "system tuner" it had a lot more options and settings to apply CPU freq changes with an initd script.

Nope. Just flahed the kernel first. Then I installed set-cpu. I'm downgraded to 1.4 s-off, but I'm not sure that would make a difference. I've set OC and rebooted and it stuck. Although, I currently am testing 192mhz to 1.2ghz with the smartassV2 gov.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
The reason that your SetCPU settings are not sticking is because there is a script in that ROM that overides the SetCPU. There is no reason why you cannot use SetCPU on an Anthrax kernel. I've never had a problem with it except for a ROM that contains a script to control the CPU.
