Some generally topics about overclocking - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I have a few questions above the following. First of all, I have to say that I want to "overclock" my phone; it is an Huawei P7. Looking in google and Youtube I realize that I need a Kernel. So, here comes my first question: What is a kernel?. Searching more and more I found that a Kernel looks like a operating system, am I right?. Something else, a Kernel has "governors", what is that?. Thank you very much for your answers
I am sorry if this title don't correspond to the main of the sub section.

[Q] jailing my android device to only one app

Hi folks,
first of all I want to say that this is the very best forum for Android I have ever seen. I've got so much usefull things here! Thank you for this great help.
But now I have a project to solve, where I have to modify an Android device, so that the "Standard"-User has only 1 App to start.
Every other things like settings and so on have to be password protected.
I do not even find a hint where to start investigating for a solution.
How could this be done? Do I have to :
- write a new Launcher?
- write or compile a new kernel?
I do not want you to give me a ready app or kernel or whatever I need.
I would be glad to get a hint where to look or how to start.
I have tried to find a similar thread or topic but I have not found anything.
I tried jailing and similar word in the search without a proper result.
thanks, for reading this
regards

[Q] Need help on Root 9100G 2.3.6

Hi Folks,
I want to root my S2which is currently on GB 2.3.6 with following specs:
Model : GT91000G
PDA:I9100GXWLC2
CSC:I9100GODDKL1
Phone:I9100GDDKL1
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version:I9100GDDKL1
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected]#2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWLC2
I wanted to root without much flashing and here is what I was thinking.
1). Get the insecure Kernel and flash it.
2). Get install SU with help of Galaxy2root.zip application
3), Once rooted flash it with original Kernel.
Now my Question is: For my phone specs:
1). Where I can find Secure Kernel and insecure kernel? Links and name of kernel is preferred..
2). if I flash insecure and then flash secure kernel, will the binary counter increases?
Any other preferred method for rooting ensuring stock ROM is same?
thanks
SAM
Read the stickies. The only particularly important detail is that you have an I9100G. The rules tell you to search before posting, do you really think in the year the phone has been out, no-one thought to ask how to root?

Hey man..given that its a forum..people can ask questions. Lot of time even after reading on forum you may still not figure out whats right for you..so chill.
Help me with the answer...
He did help you with the answer. All the info you're after has been asked for on here hundreds of times before (and answered). If you can't find what you're looking for with XDA search, do a Google search and append XDA to your search terms (do you know how many results I just got with "root I9100G XDA" ?).

Hey boss..Same line of argument..Did u even read my questions..I am not able to find kernel both secure and insecure .. just want to know what kernel I can use..If I am mentioning this it does shows that I have gone through material on net etc.
Help and move on..
Answers for such basic questions are almost always in Development sections (sticky threads, guides and so on). So I strongly recommend you visit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585413 , these users will be definitely more likely to help you. General section is occupied mostly by i9100's users, and sorry but we have no idea about i9100G.
One word. Bull****. I.E - I don't believe you. I absolutely do not believe that I can type those search terms into Google, get all those results, yet you somehow can't.
I know what the issue is here. You can't be bothered reading. You want the information spoonfed to you. We don't do that here. People here are encouraged to read & learn. If you were asking a question that was complex/difficult, I'd be more than happy to oblige you. You're asking basics. Answers to basics are easily found with only a minimum of effort on your part.
That you can't be bothered even expending that minimal effort says a lot. It tells me you'll probably try and take shortcuts when you do work out how to root your phone, and experience on here generally indicates people who do that end up with borked phones.
I am moving on. And I certainly won't be offering any help should you end up borking your phone.
Also, you didn't say please in your OP, which shows me you also lack manners. In fact, your entire OP has this "I want, I demand, give me" smell to it.
You might want to take a step back & reflect for a moment that it might well be (actually, this is certain) that you are the issue here, and not the two people who have replied to your OP thus far.

thank.. I will search..Only reason I am posting here is that I cant post it on Development. Seems Tough to get Original Kernal and insecure. one.. THanks a anyways.
Hey Man,
It may possible that you are subject matter expert and that why you might be senior member.But it doesn't give you liberty to write like this. fact that I am posting shows that I was requesting.
After searching possibly everywhere, I am just asking which kernel etc..it is humanly impossible to all the entries on forum. Doing google only I came to knw the solution I wanted to pursue.
Any ways..I am rest assured that I will never lose my phone by flashing incorrectly.. It will be not because of you but many of other member who are willing to share there expertise without make so much of noise.
No Personal Feeling man..

[Q] Complete Newbiee looking to break out of touch wiz

Hi All,
First of all apologies if this has been covered in another thread. I've had a long search around and can't seem to find any answers to my question. If i have missed it please point me in the right direction.
I am looking to install cyanogenmod 10.2 onto my S3 i9300 international (currently running the terrible 4.3 updated update).
My first question is how do I know if clockwork mod is installed on my phone? And if it isn't what is the best way of going about setting it up?
Second question is which kernel should i be using to get the best performance/ battery life balance? Also how do i know which kernel I currently have? ( I literally know nothing about this subject)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to learning all the benefits to custom roms and, hopefully grow my knowledge so i can stop pestering you guys.
Cheers all.
Sticky threads will tell you all need to know, follow the guides and advise.
Best rom/kernel threads are not allowed, as is posting questions in the general thread.

[Q] CPU Overclocking

Hi guys, I'm just new to this site!
First and foremost, I like to thank you all for such a great website.
I've got a question and I would be so pleased if someone could help me.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy Pro GT-B7510 and I've already rooted it! I was wondering If someone could tell me that how could I overclock my CPU and also how to get rid of some system applications which are not very useful.
Thanks in advance!
Yours sincerely!
I'd take the time to find your phone's forum and read all the stickies there. I'll bet your questions are already answered.
