[Q] my streak freeze if overclock pass 998!! - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
I have StreakDroid GingerStreak 2.4.4 by DJ_Steve installed on my streak 5. I'm trying to OC my streak pass stock speed which is 998MHz but anything pass stock frequency makes my streak 5 freeze.
first I used voltage control to OC my cpu but when my streak started to freeze I uninstalled it and tried to OC using ROM toolbox. however that didn't work either and my streak froze again.
The thing is I used an app called Stability Test and ran it for 3 hours and I had no problem, no freezing or crashes or reboots. however after i stopped using my phone for an hour and then tried to go into the web my phone froze.
now I know that every CPU OC differently but is it possible that I have the worst luck in the world and got a CPU that doesn't OC at all?!! or is it just a matter of trying a different kernel?
if so what kernel do you guys recommend for GingerStreak 2.4.4?
thanks

First off, I would recommend ditching Gingerstreak 2.4.4 and go with either DSC, CM7, or one of the MIUI builds. Gingerstreak is old and no longer being developed. The others I listed all benefit from _n0p_'s Phoenix kernel. DSC has it as part of the rom and its available to flash on either CM7 or MIUI.

thanks for your help. I'll try one of these ROMs right now.
just one more thing what does DSC and MIUI stands for?
I know the CyanogenMod but what are the other two? and which one do you recommend the most?
thank you again

I would recommend DSC over the other two. Its the most highly developed and its creator, _n0p_, a genius. I am running CM7 because I like to tinker with my phone and ROM.

I second lordmorphous in recommending DSC.

Hi i just switched to rom eugene373 vibrant9 but don't know how to overclock it to 1.2ghz with lagfix... i need help please this would def make my day and i will def return the favor in the future to people who don't know how to.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7752834&postcount=463 i already read this page but i have no idea what is talking about.. can some one help me step by step how i can overclock it and also have lagfix on my new rom thank you merry x mas and happy new years! thank you!!!
Download destroyer of worlds aka DoW
I made mine go to 1.2 with, that
Also u need setcpu app
xriderx66 what rom are currently on vibrant 9?? and DOW is not on the market....
DOW is on Team Whiskys site in donator section last I checked. It's not an app it's a kernel.
is that kernel compatible with eugene373 vibrant9?? and do u install kernels just like roms?? with rom clockwork?? btw i am on eclair not froyo.... i need to know how i can install kernels if any1 can link me to a website or video on how to? thank you =D
btw im very thankful for all the info so far u guys are the best! i know noobs can get annoying at times but werent we all noobs at one point? haha thanks!
Kernals install through clockwork by choosing install file from SD and scrolling to the kernal.
Silly question, why flash a rom if it's still 2.1?
is 2.2 froyo suppost to be better?? i don't know myself because i am a noob =D
i am about to odin my phone right now lol.... anyways what's a great 2.2 rom out right now i heared axura is quite good... i also heared with 2.2 froyo GPS don't work =(

I currently have Nero 3 and Axura 2.2VE and they're both great Roms. I'm going to stay with Axura for now because I find myself flashing every other day and that needs to stop lol.
2.2 should have no negative effect on your GPS and it's better optimised for our hardware making everything just faster. It also has other abilities like flash support etc.
If you want to run DOW from Team Whiskey then you should go with Nero 3 as they will be compatible.
My question now is why the desire to OC the phone to 1.2?
tw core kernel should work with any 2.1 rom. i got decent battery life and performance with core.
as for 2.2 (which if you are flashing, i highly recommend going to a 2.2 rom), dow kills battery. i ran dow14bln with different nero versions (b2 and 3, and v1), and it would kill my battery in about 6 hours without even using the phone... but the performance was amazing.
just keep in mind that if you run a 2.1 rom you HAVE to use a 2.1 kernel, similarly 2.2 rom means you need a 2.2 kernel. and i'd get a rom/kernel combo working before thinking about adding in the potential headaches of a lagfix.
personally, i think nero v3 with the voodoo kernel is pretty good. not as fast as the 1.4ghz oc, but a good performance/battery life balance.
core can be found here: http://teamwhiskey.com/download.html
nero and dow can be found here: http://board.teamwhiskey.com/
ty u guys are awesome!! =D

[Q] Best ROM for Streak?

Hello, now that I have this new Streak, I would like to put a new ROM on it. Is there a location that lists the various ROMs that are available, with a description of each?
Can anyone recommend a goof Froyo build for the Streak?
Thanks!
the only chef we have for streak is dj_steve and the rom is called streakdroid, currently on ver 1.6.1 and the post regarding it is in t he android dev forum

Thanks, I have been looking at that, but didn't know it was the only option. Now I am trying to figure out how to get clockwork on it...

Thanks, I finally got it to work using Streakmod. There is a hex command that you have to add to the fastboot command that didn't show up on the tutorial I was looking at.
if you use clockwork, the guide is exactly the way you should do it, not sure about streakmod though
Honestly, I would use the QDL tool to get 309 on there, then update to the dell non carrier version of 318 and flash smokku and fard's kernel mod that will over clock your processor and give you quadrant scores of 2000
Head to StreakDroid.com and just follow the guide.
QDL tool to the "official" 2.2, and then use the StreakMod version of Clockwork and flash to DJ_Steve's 1.6.1
My Quadrant scores are now over 2500. Lovin' it.

I appreciate that you took the time to offer advice, but I have no idea what you said...
Does that mean there are more than one Streak ROM out there? I like th clean interface on DJ Steve's 1.61, but it seems buggy and I get a lot of force closes and other weird issues.
U gotta flash version 1.5.1 then factory reset using stock recovery then flash back to 1.6.1
After that it shouldnt be buggy anymore. The reason u go down to 1.5.1 is bc the later versions don't support factory reset.

[Q] Ninphetamine 2.0.5 and CM7 aren't compatible?

Hey guys,
I was using ninphetamine 2.0.5 on lite'ning rom and it worked really well. Last night I flashed to CM7 nightyly build 16 and then flashed Ninphetamine 2.0.5 using Odin 1.85 and when the phone restarts basically everything had to force close and I got a million "this and this has stopped unexpectedly". The boxes keep reappearing after I click through them so I can never get to using the phone.
Is there some incompatibility with Ninphetamine x CM7? I would like to undervolt, so which kernel should I use with CM7? (The stock CM7 kernel doesn't have undervolting)
I believe the CM7 devs have asked kernel devs not to provide support for it yet as they are still in heavy development. Hacre has respected this wish with ninphetamine, use whichever kernel CM7 comes with. See this post from pulser
Ah, thanks for that. CM7 does still have a few problems, but I am extremely impressed with my few hours playing around with it.
I guess it's villainrom for the time being

please select your favorite ROM from 18 ROMS, and share your rom report

maybe you have used many ROM for your i9100,please poll your favourite,and tell us your use report about rom.THANKS
the following is the history of my use about rom:
lite'ning 3.0---CM7 nightly 1-15---villainROM 2.4---Leomar75 2.4 and 2.5 ---cognition s2 1.4,1.4.2 ---sensatioN 1.2,1.3--MIUI1.8.12--Lite‘ning 6.0 xxkh1
i think no best rom,there are only some ROM that fit you~
stock rom.. im going to try MIUI rom and CM7 rom, once they get a little more finished, till then Villain rom is basically a stock rom, that comes prerooted
Rigth now villain but i think im keen to try cognition s2 as it seems to be pretty popular looking at your voting chart.
THANKS~~and you could try cognition 1.4.0 and 1.4.2
cognition 1.4.0 kernel ninphetamine 2.0.5
cognition 1.4.2 kernel speedmod k1-t22
beacuse first time cognition adopt speedmod kernel~when i using 1.4.2,i could feel some unstable~
so i recommend you could try cognition 1.4.0 and sensatioN 1.3
they are battery friendly
Revolution for me.
Was on stock for a long time, also tried Cognition and Villain for lengthy periods. Stability is important for me, so no CM7. Had nothing but bad experiences with MIUI, won't go near it again.
Stuck with Revolution because it was the first ROM without a laggy stock browser in KG6 (don't want a 3rd party browser), supports a monochrome theme bugfree, love the OTA kitchen and updates, and Leo is a great dev.
Liked Cognition and Villain too - two great devs - but found my keeper
Which rom ???? xx rom version 1 may be good version 2 may be better and version 3 may be worse .
This is not a vote on a rom just a vote on a roms name .
jje
Lite'ning, Batista70, Criskelo, Villain, Miui, Cognition, CM7, Leomar, tried all with differents Kernell. Some serve better than others, Criskelo stayed longer. Now back to Lite'ning KH1-Speedmod-T22, fast and batery friendly.
I tried: CM7 nightly 20, MIUI, VillainRom, and Revolution so far. I voted revolution as it seems to be the most stable one for now.
prefer batista 3.5..super smooth
You want an option for 'no real preference'. I'm running villain but not through having done any comparisons or investigations. The kernel is the only interesting variable for me, not the ROM (other than making sure it is reasonably up-to-date)
yes~but i can't list all roms and all versions

What monochrome theme you using with Revolution, NitrozK's?
I'm with you on the monochrome mate...
no best,right~i like batista70
Cognition all the way - stock looking but amazing speed, clean, and bugless!!
Please add GingerMOD. I'm using this rom right now and it's the best of both worlds, aosp looks with the best of stock Samsung firmware. (ie. Camera, FM Radio, etc.)

Currently on Leo's modified Sikashi theme from his kitchen - it's excellent.
Haven't tried nitrozk's theme on Revolution yet - found it a bit buggy on Cognition, it's been updated many times since but work has now ceased.
Assuming that it won't work on forthcoming KH3, so no reason to change for me.
Baffled at the lurv for greens/blues/God-knows-what..

Have to say im surprised people are saying CM7, usually it most likely would come out on top if stable but it's far from stable at present and that's the reason i haven't flashed it, i want a stable build on my phone with everything working, Lite'ing ROM was the first i had a good it was but ive stuck with Cognition now for a while.

What do you mean not stable? i'm using it since build 16 and never had a fc or a random reboot, everythings i use works nicely apart for bt audio. The rom itself is smooth and clean

I don't understand how people are saying that CM7 is unstable, have you guys actually tried it? What problems have you had?
I've used it since version 12 and never had a problem with FC or rebooting. My only gripe with it is that it doesn't have bluetooth audio, but I knew that going in and I know it's high on the priority list for development.
Currently looking for a ROM with bluetooth to fill the gap until it's done though, as it's killing me not having the bluetooth for my car. But when that functionality is there, I'll be straight back.

After root*

Hey guyz...
I just rooted my s5 2.3.3 407 olleh rom
Now I am wondering what all I can do with it...
Can any1 suggest me some nice tweaks or apps..
Also can any one tell me how can I overclock... Cuz setcpu has the highest limit to 998 ........ How can it be 1500 or something like that

Root is the most powerful aspect to being able to get the most from any device.
It unlocks access to the root of the filesystem, so you can change almost anything. Also root is essential to get more functionality from your device, a lot of software requires root access to work.
In your case, try a new kernel, i am sure you will be able to overclock using Pheonix kernel for example.
To be honest, why not install a custom rom?
Everything is done for you, and kept up to date with bug fixes.
If you like the rom you have, my recommendation is the DSC rom as it is an excellent rom.

M planning to flash dsc on my stock rom
With stock kernel
Will my fone b able to overclock then or I still have to flash different kernel.?
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
If you want to be able to overclock and undervolt the processor, you need to install the Phoenix kernel as the stock Gingerbread kernel does not support either operation. You WANT to install the Phoenix kernel anyway as it has fixes above and beyond overclocking that aren't found in the 407 kernel. If you're coming from Froyo (Android 2.2.x), you cannot use a Froyo kernel with a Gingerbread (Android 2.3.x) ROM, unless of course you want to render the device unusable until corrected.
I had stock froyo
Then I updated my rom to official olleh one...without changing the kernel
Nd its working cool

When you change ROMs using official Dell packages, all the components are supposed to be updated to match the ROM. This is to minimize incompatibility. Therefore, when you upgraded to 407, the baseband, recovery, and the kernel should have been upgraded at the same time as the ROM itself.
In this case, you happen to be one of those for whom the kernel wasn't upgraded. And while the Froyo kernel on Gingerbread seems to work, the combination cannot be as stable or as functional as having a Gingerbread kernel with a Gingerbread ROM. The point however should be moot now as you've installed either DSC or Traveller DSC, both of which have the Phoenix kernel.
yeah now my streak has dsc
with pheonix kernel

I am still learning here, a newbie. Please apologize me for my lack of knowledge.
When I first started, I read quite a number of forum until I got quite confused, but has opted a choice. After numerous attempt, I managed to flash my DS5 with Longhorn 2.9.3 using CWM. What I found out was my Baseband(BB is what they call it, am I correct?) was still 347, which later I read somewhere here, I need to have BB407 instead. Was struggling to get 407 installed, but finally manage a solution.
But I still have not really understood what refers to a Kernal, and a Baseband. What they use for, etc...
Can someone please help to explain. Thanks.
My DS5 About phone look like this now. I am wondering if the part, second from below on the picture, is a problem = "MOD VERSION : UNKNOWN:
Can anyone comment on that? Thanks.
And also, I still can't overclock my DS5 using this ROM, max still at 998. I have tried SetCPU and Antutu CPU Master, and I read many forums to find out how, but none seems to work. Have I missed a step on installation or...? Can anyone help on this? Thanks.
BTW, I might decide to try DSCv2.3 (perhaps starts off with DSCv1.0, before upgrading) or Streak MIUI 2.4.20.
Any advice on those? Thanks.
XDA Developers - Kernel & Baseband Difference
The search engine is your friend. Learn how to use it please. In the meantime, I recommend either DSC or Traveller DSC. Read the instructions in the first posts of each thread and you should be good.
Thanks you for the encouragement, suggestions and instruction.
use dsc 2.3
it has rooted rom with phoenix kernel wilhich would allow you to overclock your device using any app :thumbup:
