[Q] Best overclock methods? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I used to run a froyo rom with dragon kernel, and was able to overclock to 1360 mhz no problem. Now I'm on the latest trigger cm7 build with glitch kernel and it totally crashes my phone the second I try anything above 1200. What methods have people used to get good, stable overclocks above 1200?

Anyone know a good kernel without OC?

I am running bionix 1.3 which has the stock kernel...i wanted to know if anyone knows a kernel that has improvements but is not overclocked because my phone can't handle it....it just keeps freezing up

on thing to try is not touch the "conservative" drop down box, in setcpu, that tends to royally screw things up, but why not just run the kernel you are running, but not over clock it to 1.2, just leave it at 1ghz? use setcpu to set it at 10000mhz then click the "set on boot" check box. it should be golden.
You can use any Kernel you want and just not overclock. I don't see why that wouldn't work.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes
(edited) after reading up a bit, i just installed JAC's Extreme kernel over bionix 1.3 that had kk to begin with, already its faster at startup, time to play around...

Did you flash a kernel thats overclocks your cpu like jacs kernel or whiskey.

I've read that apparently some Vibrants cannot handle the overclock. Might be the case if you did not install a OC/UV kernel as pointed out above.
As most overclocked kernal developers have stated if you experience freezing or force closing your device may not be able to handle overclock. Not all Vibrants can.

[Q] OC kernel problem

anybody here have the problem where you have a 1.2 ghz kernel 200min and 1200 max conservative
where it might get stuck at a 3d game and when listening to music and playing a game or scrolling through live wallpapers it gets stuck as well?
i used jacs kernel and core kernel and both do the same thing is it that i have lagdfix??
There is the possibility that your phone cant handle the overclock kernel. There are some vibrants that cant. Try downloading a non overclocked kernel and see if that helps.

Sounds like you have the misfortune of having two phones that cant handle overclocking. I would try a non overclocked kernel and see what happens.

Better performance out of Psx4Droid?

I recently started using the Psx4droid app and its great, but sometimes the sound lags and the frame rate drops. Is there anyway way to boost performance? Im currently playing FFVII and im running Nero V4.1 with voodoo.

I think the only way to improve the speed and stability is through the emulator itself.
try to use the OC kernel that TW posted.

I tried the Dow 1.4 Kernel that Som posted as a bonus. The emulator wouldn't even open when I overclocked it.

AOKP Overclock?

Is there a way to overclock the newest AOKP? There is a CPU manager in it but it only goes up to 1Ghz. So I tried a 3rd party overclocker but it still only gave me 1Ghz. I want to run it up to 1.3Ghz. Any help would be appreciated.

If it won't let you over clock it's because the current kernel won't allow you. You need to flash a different kernel that supports overclocking/voltage control
